Chapter 1 I don’t dare to write down the word count anymore!
At midnight, the city-state of Custer gradually became quiet.
No. 44 Golden Avenue is a two-story building located at a road intersection. It is made of bricks and stones and has a triangular roof.
The exterior of the house is painted in bright yellow, which is very different from other buildings. Only the gray tiles on the roof are consistent with the style of Golden Avenue.
"August 8, 1578 in the New Calendar, the weather..."
Wayne Loft turned his head and looked out the window. A red moon hung high in the night sky, and the shadows in the red moon were vaguely visible, like floating lights.
Under the red moon, the red moonlight was hazy and dim, adding a bit of mystery to the dark night.
Nearby is a kerosene street lamp that is as tall as a person. Above the black lamppost is a wooden lampshade, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. Through the window, you can still see the dim firelight in the lampshade, driving away the darkness.
He was already very familiar with these.
Every day before nightfall, when the bell of Krims Cathedral rang the sixth bell, he would see a lamplighter in a black cloak lighting a kerosene lamp on time.
Immediately afterwards, the lamplighter would stand quietly with a solemn expression, fold his hands on his shoulders, and whisper: "Praise the Lord of the Dawn!" Every time he saw
this scene, a strange thought would come to his mind: What if the kerosene lamp If they are not illuminated, does it mean that they have been abandoned by the Lord of the Dawn?
"...Qing."
Wei En pressed two "buttons" like this, spelling out the golden word "Qing", and the black light curtain in front of him seemed to be swallowed by the void space, causing several circles of black ripples.
Compared with the kerosene street lamp being lit by someone outside, the "typewriter" in his hand is obviously a hundred times weirder.
On the oak base, there is a silver box embedded with exquisite patterns, as beautiful as a jewelry box.
Press and hold the switch on the left side of the box, and something similar to a "keyboard" will pop up slowly - a "typewriter".
There are six rows in total, each row has twelve "keys", for a total of seventy-two "keys" representing common language characters, neatly arranged on it.
Although the workmanship of the "keys" is slightly rough, the clear and sweet sound when struck can't help but remind Wayne of the days and nights he spent fighting in the Ionian continent in his previous life.
It's a pity that he can never go back...
Yes, he is not from this world.
One morning a week ago, when he woke up from his deep sleep, he found that everything around him had changed.
At first he thought it was a prank by his friends who brought him to the movie city.
But after receiving the remaining memories of his predecessor, he had to accept the fact that he had traveled through time.
After experiencing hesitation, fear, and loss...
Wei En quickly picked up his mentality and chose to face reality positively - especially three nights ago, when he saw a monster with a human arm in its mouth passing through the window. .
He swears!
It was definitely a very terrifying monster, it looked like a wolf, but it was much larger.
The monster's body was covered with gray-white scales, its limbs were burning with pale flames, and there was a pair of huge wings on its back that flew across the night sky.
Under the red moon, it looks like a demon crawling out of the abyss, making people shudder.
Even when he peered at it from a distance, Wayne could feel his own trembling and fear, making him unable to resist at all.
However, he also had a blessing in disguise - something like a game properties panel came to mind.

Goldfinger?
Wei En thought he was going to thrive in this weird world, but he didn't expect an unexpected surprise.
Although this panel is not yet functional, it is enough to make him look forward to the future.
Therefore -
from that day on, he decided to take a closer look at this world full of mystery, weirdness, and magic.
However,
before that, he first had to complete a job that his predecessor had worked hard for.
"Praise the Lord of Ghosts! Custer City State is as peaceful as ever, the sun still rises, the red moon still hangs high, everything is so beautiful... Custer City State Intelligence Officer, Wayne Loft."
This is the job that my predecessor found—the intelligence officer of the Ghost School in the city of Custer!
The work is also very simple. You only need to transmit what is happening in the city-state from time to time through the "typewriter".
After Wei En replaced his predecessor's body, he inherited this job and carried it forward.
The predecessor usually transmitted every three days, but Wei En was different. He updated every day... ah no, he insisted on transmitting new "information" every day in exchange for a meager salary.
Each piece of information is no more than a thousand words, and the minimum salary is 6 pence - equivalent to 30 yuan in the previous life. (12 pence = 1 shilling, 20 shillings = 1 gold pound)
Not counting additional rewards based on the value of the intelligence.
And the most important thing!
Within the Ghost School, he can also purchase some knowledge through money, such as the most basic meditation method-it only costs 2 gold pounds.
Look, even the commission bonus system and points exchange system are out.
What's this?
This is the pattern.
We deserve that the Ghost School can become bigger and stronger!
Therefore, after learning this, Wei En calculated his little treasure every day - 1 gold pound, 19 shillings and 6 pence.
As long as the money arrives today, he can redeem the meditation method.
It is hoped that this will open the door to the ghost wizard and step into the extraordinary ranks.
He had even set a goal - to press the Netherworld Vicious Dog to the ground and rub it.
"Buzz...buzz..."
Wei En came back from his reverie and saw that the "telephone" next to the "typewriter" was vibrating crazily.
Damn it,
did you get a call?
Like the "typewriter", this "telephone" is the same weird thing - it looks like a trophy, narrow at the bottom and wide at the top, pure gold, with a blue flame painting on the cup.
To start it,
Wayne reached out and clicked on the gem button of the "telephone".
Blue flames spurted out from above, and a cold and cold breath spread, making him shiver.
Immediately afterwards, a slightly slender figure appeared in the flames, and became illusory and distorted as the flames burned.
The figure was wrapped in a black hooded robe, with only the soft and graceful chin exposed, and... a broad white chest.
"Wayne Loft?" A clear and cold voice sounded.
woman?
Is the intelligence liaison officer a woman?
A strange thought flashed through Wei En's heart, but his body instinctively made a salute. He bowed slightly and said respectfully: "Yes, Mr. Liaison Officer."
In the memory of his predecessor, there was something about the superior liaison officer, but it was just [work One of the regulations - don’t do anything offensive!
A few short words, no reason, no consequence after violation.
However,
with the weird scene now, Wayne no longer wanted to explore the authenticity of this sentence.
After half a minute of silence, the voice sounded again: "You are the one who passed on that junk information for how many days in a row?"
Rubbish information?
Is this because I was found out about the number of words in my intelligence?
Wei En raised his eyes and glanced at the figure in the flames. A pair of narrow, deep eyes stared at him angrily through the hood.
A bad premonition surged in his heart...
Then he heard the figure's tone turn to anger:
"Your Majesty, the Ghost School!"
"If I deviate from the teachings, please let the bastards of Dawn Church punish me. Instead of letting me serve as the liaison officer for the intelligence department of the damn Kingdom of Chartland." "
If I hadn't come here, I wouldn't have met you - Wayne Loft!"
"You shameless salary thief, damn it A free whore, a filthy moth... For six days, the total information you submitted was only worth 1 penny." "
1 penny!! It's not even enough to buy a pound of black bread!" "
And you, It was shameful that I got 3 shillings.”
"Is your face made of porcupine skin? Huh?"
After a violent storm, Wei En had only one thought in his mind.
Oh no!
It seems that the liaison officer does not recognize his intelligence value very much. If he doesn't do something, he is afraid that he will burp immediately.
Wei En's mind was racing, and he took advantage of the other party's pause to organize his words carefully: "Dear Liaison Officer, is there any misunderstanding here? I submit intelligence every day, which involves all aspects of Custer City State... "
Ha!"
the liaison officer said sarcastically: "Including cleaning horse manure in the slums?"
"There are also major events..."
"For example, the bell ringer of Krims Cathedral is an ugly guy?"
"..."
There was a moment of silence . Afterwards, Wei En said with a sneer: "Sir, do you think there is a possibility that nothing has happened in Custer City State recently?" "
Shut up!"
The liaison officer took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and tried to find a person. The elegance a lady should have:
"Five days ago, a captain of the Secret Service was assassinated. Three days ago, more than 300 people disappeared mysteriously in the slums. Two days ago, the Black Pearl ran rampant in the Cordo Sea and plundered the city of Castor. The cargo ship in the port..."
"Damn it! Do you want me to continue talking?"
Elegance is impossible to be elegant...
Sure enough, let's kill him, right?
Please collect it, invest in it, read it, read it! !
Don’t turn it off in a hurry, read Chapter 10 before you start! ! !
The setting is novel and the plot is compact. Please write a good review in Chapter 11, hehe.
