Chapter 119 Will I witness
and help?
Wayne remembered that the last time Claire said this, she still asked him to keep the necklace.
No, I want to stay with him temporarily.
This time...
"In fact, I don't know much about the crisis in Castor City this time."
Claire's face was no longer charming, and she played with a cane in her hand expressionlessly, starting from the brass material. And the rough appearance shows that this is not her personal belongings.
Wayne didn't ask, waiting for her next words.
Due to the lack of a lot of basic common sense, the information he had in his hands was like rootless duckweed, which gave people a very awkward feeling.
For example, the Sect of Desire in the Nightless City, the conflict between the Sect of Despair and the Eternal Life Society, the conflict between the Vasquez and Serres families, and the relationship between the various parties in the city of Castor... "Remember last time
? I told you that I came to Custer City State only after something happened." "
Well, it's because of the volume of era relics."
Claire folded her hands together and seemed to have noticed Tina. Same, his eyes were fixed on her face, to be precise, her dull eyes.
There was no reflection of her in those pupils?
It's a pity that such big eyes can't be used as mirrors...
"Actually, I'm not very clear about the process of the loss of that volume of relics. It was only after I came here that I found out that you had found and put it away. You know that Is there anything written on it?"
"Um, you don't know?"
"Probably," Claire said with certainty, "I don't know."
"You don't know what's on it?" Wei En was surprised. Look at her.
"I'm not a scholar who specializes in the Gonzalez language, and there are too many relics from the era in the Eternal Life Society. No one is interested in looking through the past volumes."
"So, you just came to Custer without knowing anything?"
"Is it weird? I just have time, and it just so happens that I want to change city-states," Claire tilted her head and looked at him, with the corners of her mouth raised slightly.
"It's not surprising..."
Wei En didn't know how to describe her, so he could only say, "It contains information about the location of forbidden objects." "
What forbidden objects?"
"This,"
"Don't worry, as long as There won't be much of a problem if the forbidden object is more than ten kilometers away from you. And those forbidden objects are very discerning, and they are not interested in wizard apprentices like you." "Ten kilometers..." Wei En
still
said This was the first time I knew there was such a restriction, but it seemed useless to know. He had encountered progress taboo objects before, and they were all quite close to him.
He didn't know whether other wizard apprentices could arouse interest in forbidden objects.
But he can arouse interest in forbidden objects.
"Tell me," Claire said with a stunned expression, "Don't tell me, it's not far away from here?" "
Probably, maybe, it's closer than you think."
"Even closer?"
" Forbidden Object 0-34 The resurrected coffin is right here..."
Before he finished speaking, Wei En's expression suddenly changed.
[You mentioned "Forbidden Object 0-34 Resurrection Coffin", attracting its attention. Your fate has changed. The current encounter progress is 50/100. Rating: Do you know the lighthouse? You are. Special rewards: Survival Points +30, Origin +3, Spirit Level +4, Resilience Level +4. ]
50...
No way?
I remember that when he saw the resurrected coffin with his own eyes before, it only increased the progress by ten points, but this time he just mentioned a name...
What happened?
"Forbidden Object 0-34 Resurrection Coffin, you... huh?"
Claire chewed on the name, and seeing that he looked distracted, she raised her hand and tapped his forehead, "You can still be distracted when you talk to me, can't you? Isn't it because I'm not pretty enough today?"
As she spoke, the clothes on her body slowly faded away, revealing a large area of white... skirt.
[When you hear "Forbidden Object 0-34 Resurrection Coffin", your destiny trajectory will change to a certain extent, and the current encounter progress is 60/100. Comment: I probably understand how you feel now, my condolences. Special rewards: Survival Points +10, Origin +1, Spirit Level +2, Resilience Level +2. ]
"..."
again? ?
Under Claire's surprised gaze, Wayne grabbed her hand and forced a smile on his face, "Promise me not to mention this name in front of me." "Forbidden object 0... wu, wu wu?
"
Wei En directly covered her mouth and said without tears: "Don't say it, it, it's too sensitive. If you say it a few times, I'm afraid it will come out." "Woo, woo woo
... ...Nenega Gladiator?"
"Huh?" Wayne let go of his hand and clasped his hands together: "Don't ever mention its name again." "
Well, can you feel it?"
Claire took a deep breath. , looked at him doubtfully, "Can't you? Forbidden objects have always been hidden from destiny. Except for a few props, few people can discover its existence." "Anyway, just don't mention it." Wei En
did
n't He couldn't explain the existence of the panel, but he knew very well that if he heard the name of the resurrected coffin a few more times, it would be really over. The demon clown was suppressed by Tina, which caused him a lot of trouble.
If there is another resuscitated coffin, will he still be alive?
"I didn't expect that in addition to being able to distinguish between my body and my puppet, you could also detect the gaze of forbidden objects..." Claire licked her tongue, "I am becoming more and more interested in you."
Wayne glared at her angrily, and was too lazy to continue entangled with her on this topic. He asked directly: "You ask this, does today's incident have anything to do with that forbidden object?" He had been thinking about Cass before
. What is the reason behind the series of things that have happened in the city-state recently?
If someone is after that forbidden object... it's very possible!
The resurrected coffin is a powerful forbidden object that can resurrect the dead. It is not surprising that someone wants to get it.
"No," Claire shook her head, "I just want you to know that I came to this city-state without any big goals." "So?" "
So
, some of the things I did were entirely because of Curious."
Curious...
Wai En was extremely depressed.
Just because of his curiosity, he reached 60% of the progress of reviving the coffin. How angry!
Looking at Claire... the pure white short skirt she just changed into, I really want to give her a hard blow now.
"Then I met you, and then a series of things happened, which made it impossible for me to leave here in a short time."
Claire crossed her legs and looked at Tina with interest. When she was changing her clothes just now, the white-haired girl's eyes seemed to be a little brighter?
that's it?
Wayne frowned, "I just want to know what happened in Basil's neighborhood."
"...Boring," Claire rolled her eyes at him, "Those people from the Black Pearl are digging secret passages underground."
" Secret passage?" Wei En pointed to the ground, "Are they down there?"
"Well, it seems they want to dig into the Natoli neighborhood."
Where?
In the underground buildings, all Wei En could think of was the city that never sleeps, where the city-state magic circle is...
Could the Black Pearl be planning the city-state magic circle?
"Do you know their purpose?"
"Not sure yet," Claire chuckled, "But I only know that it must be a very interesting thing." "
More interesting than the parasites of the Abyss Religion?"
"The Abyss Cult...Humph, sooner or later I will make Poulsen pay the price."
"Yes, yes, you are the most powerful." Wayne said perfunctorily.
"After talking about your business," Claire took out a letter and handed it to him, "Send a letter for me."
"Send..." Wayne just glanced at the envelope and did not take it, "You puppet There are so many, just send them there at will. Do you still need my help?"
"If it can be delivered, do I still need your help? Look clearly!"
Claire straightened the envelope, pointed to the name on it and said: " This letter is for Ales Coulibaly, the director of your Secret Coordination Department." "
I would like to send it to him, but he doesn't leave the Secret Coordination Department at all, and I can't get in there..."
" That's it."
Wei En thought for a moment and accepted the letter, "I can help you deliver the letter, but you have to help me investigate the purpose of the Black Pearl digging the secret tunnel." "Deal!" Claire extended her
hand
. White little hands.
Snapped.
Wayne high-fived her and concluded the deal, "If there's nothing else, I'll go on a mission first." "
Mission? Is it for the parasite?"
"Yeah."
"Then don't bother,"
he finished speaking. Claire seemed to be relieved, "The magic circle here is not a decoration. Even if there are parasites, they have already killed them." Killed
?
That saved him a lot of energy.
"You..."
Boom, boom, boom!
At this moment, three violent explosions sounded in succession.
Wei En could feel the shaking around him, like a giant cannon hitting the ground, causing violent vibrations.
"Huh?"
"It looks like there's a fight outside." A flash of excitement flashed across Claire's face, "I'm going to watch the fun, don't forget to deliver the letter for me." "Wait, I
'll go too."
, Wei En quickly pulled Tina and ran outside.
I don't know how long he stayed here, and he almost forgot about Santiago and the others.
"North."
Wei En's mental perception covered the past, and he had discovered that the two people in the war department were none other than Hector and Chirrut.
Fighting them were...Collins and Erno?
However, at this time, Collins was no longer dressed in a refined and serious butler's attire, but instead wore a linen short coat commonly worn by sailors.
Several tentacles behind him smashed at Hector and the others crazily. Each blow was like a cannonball, shattering the surrounding buildings.
The mucus on those tentacles was continuously thrown out with his attacks, corroding any object contaminated.
Erno, who was next to him, was still waving his long knife, cooperating with Collins' attack.
Hector and the others were left to passively defend themselves, not daring to be touched by those slimes.
"Santiago, if you don't come here, we are really going to die!!"
"Hector is the corrupt blood of Vazquez. They are the core members of the Vazquez family!"
Both of them are in the same boat. Holding a gun and a shield in the other hand, they are doing tactical coordination back to back.
"Damn it, Erno, we'll be in big trouble if we don't kill them."
"Oakley, Des, Thomas." (Aurora flashed.)
Erno's face was cold, his body turned into an afterimage, and his body was long. The knife cut across and appeared behind Hector and the two in an instant.
Clang.
The shield in Chirrut's hand was split into two and fell to the ground along with his arm.
"Pfft..."
"Chirrut, potion No. 4!" Hector was very anxious, Santiago, come quickly, or you will really be dead if you don't come!
Without waiting for him to remind him, Chirrut had already taken out the healing potion and poured it into his mouth, restoring some vitality to his pale and bloodless face.
"Go on!" Collins said with a ferocious smile.
"Yenni..."
Pfft.
Just as Erno was about to turn his body and strike again, he heard a subtle sound of breaking through the air...
[You hit Erno Vazquez with a sniper rifle, triggering the burst rune and triggering the death characteristic - epidemic. , the instant death progress is 32/30. Rewards: Survival points +3, marksmanship +1. 】
【Elno Vazquez triggers the death characteristic-death immediately, dead. Evaluation: After testing, the blow is comparable to a minister-level all-out blow with an origin of 50. Well... it's very strong. Special rewards: Survival points +5, marksmanship +2, spiritual level +1, toughness level +1. ]
"Elno?!"
Collins looked at Erno, whose body was spurting out blood, and turned into a swollen corpse full of pus before his eyes. He couldn't believe his eyes.
"Who is it? Come out!"
Pfft.
His answer was another bullet!
[You hit Collins Vazquez with a sniper rifle...instant death progress 42/30. Rewards: Survival points +3, marksmanship +1. ]
[Collins Vazquez triggers the death characteristic - instant death, dead... Special rewards: survival points +5, marksmanship +2, spiritual level +1, toughness level +1. ]
"Humph, ho, ho..."
Plop.
Collins knelt on the ground. Compared with Erno's miserable state, he looked much better, but his body gradually withered and his hair turned gray, like the shriveled appearance of old age... "Um,
"
Hector He and Chirrut looked at each other and thought, are you going to die now? "One of our own?"
"Obviously... that boy?"
"It's very similar to the last time we were here, that guy..."
Wei En put away his sniper rifle, took Tina's hand, and appeared in front of the two of them. , "You two, are you okay?"
"No, it's okay...Ah, no, no, thank you for your help." Hector nodded and shook his head, looking at him as if he was looking at a god.
"It's okay,"
[If you find the devouring source, should you use the soul-devouring spell? 】
Wei En turned his head and looked at the two corpses on the ground. Is it comparable to a 50-origin minister-level full blow... It is really a powerful attack.
It seems that 50 origin is the level for entering the ministerial level for the first time?
He was not very clear about this. He only remembered that in the nightmare world, captain level was 20-50, and those above 50 were minister level.
Just ask Franta later.
"Hector, who? Who attacked you?"
Not long after, Santiago arrived and looked around with a stern expression.
"The ground, the ground."
Santiago then noticed Collins and Erno lying in a pool of blood. "Dead? Who did it?" "
He," Chirrut grabbed a broken arm. , pointed at Wei En and said: "I would also like to thank Wei...Investigator Wei En. If he hadn't taken action in time, I'm afraid you wouldn't have seen us." "
Him?"
Santiago looked at Wei En, and then at Looking at the corpses on the ground, as well as the injured Chirrut and the others, "Thank you."
Huh?
"You're welcome."
Wei En looked at the stiff smile on his dark face and secretly felt funny.
Is this considered a match between gold and stone?
Iron trees also bloom sometimes, it just depends on whether they are looking in the right direction.
"How did you fight with them?"
Santiago's face was a little hot. He still remembered that when he saw Wei En for the first time, he gave him a mental shock... which was a bit embarrassing.
Hector pointed to the other side, "We were checking for parasites just now. We saw them crawling out of the underground in the alley over there, so we went over to inquire about them, and the result..." "Underground?" "Yes
,
" Chirrut pointed the severed arm and waited for the wound to heal. "In addition, their identities have just been confirmed. They are members of the Vazquez family and have awakened the extraordinary bloodline of Corruption." "Vazquez? Didn't you hear about them
? Has it disappeared? How did it appear in Custer?"
"We don't know either..."
Santiago's face gradually became serious, "Let's report to Minister Abbott after we return from the mission." "
Okay. ."
"Well," at this time, Wei En said, "Have you encountered any parasites during your investigation for so long?" "
We don't have any here," Hector replied.
"There isn't one on that street to the south either." Santiago hesitated and asked, "There isn't one on your side either?"
Wayne shook his head, "There isn't one on my side either. I suspect there aren't those on Basil Street. If you continue to check, you may not be able to find many parasites."
"Oh?"
Santiago and Hector looked at each other with a thoughtful expression on their faces.
"Then Captain, do we want to continue?"
Santiago thought for a while and made a decision: "The first half of Basil's Block has the most people, and we haven't even found it here. The possibility of parasites appearing in the back is even smaller."
"Let's turn around and go to support the nearby Natoli neighborhood. We can just meet Karges and the others in the middle."
Hector nodded, "Agree."
"Over there, don't you want to take a look?" Chirrut pointed. The alley over there, "There should be problems for these Basques coming out from there, right?"
"Forget it," Santiago shook his head, "No matter what their purpose is, the most important thing right now is to clean up those parasites. ."
"Chirrut, don't worry, we'll come back here after we beat those bastards from the Abyss Sect away."
Hector put his arm around his shoulders and smiled: "Those who dare to attack our war headquarters, Then let the Vazquez family disappear completely."
"Okay, stop talking nonsense and let's go."
"Captain Santiago,"
Wei En was not interested in investigating the secret passage, but pointed to the ground. Two corpses, asked: "Can they be handed over to me?"
Santiago nodded: "You killed these, the corpses should be handed over to you."
"Yes,"
Wei En just wanted to let the ghost They cast a soul-devouring spell, but when they caught a glimpse of the money bag on Collins's waist, they stepped forward to touch it by mistake.
Jingle, jingle, jingle...
the sound is crisp, loud and echoes clearly - confirmed to be the sound of a gold pound!
This person has been the butler of the Seres family for decades, so he should have a lot...
"???"
Damn, so many gold pounds?
Wei En opened the money bag and took a look, and couldn't help but take a breath. Is this a mobile vault?
One, two... forty-five, there were 45 five-gold-pound banknotes alone, plus scattered gold coins - 233 gold pounds!
Got rich.
"The storm is rising, I seem to see a lot of portraits of the old king." Hector looked at the golden color, his eyes widened.
Chirrut also swallowed his saliva, "You, you read that right, I, I regret it a little."
According to the distribution principle during the mission, everyone who participated in the kill can get 10% of the loot.
"Promise!" Santiago gave them a slap. "If you want money, quickly improve your strength. If you can't beat the people in the investigation department, I think you should quit the department as soon as possible." Although he saw those gold
pounds He was also very jealous...
"..."
Wei En didn't pay attention to their looks or words. Fortunately, he touched the body, otherwise the gold pounds would have been eaten by the ghosts and the others.
Then he reached out to Erno next to him.
Gold pounds, shillings... letters.
Um? letter?
Let's wait until it's empty.
Wei En put the things in his hand, together with Erno's long knife, into the space ring. After making sure that nothing was missing, he signaled to the ghost that they could start.
"Adagua." (Soul Devouring Spell.)
[You use the Devouring Soul Spell to devour the origin of Collins Vazquez, and your origin is improved. Special reward: Origin +0.01. ]
[You use the soul-eating spell... Special reward: Origin +0.01. 】
Tsk, is it only 0.01?
Next time you encounter a ghost wizard, you must try the soul-devouring spell to see if the original improvement after devouring it is the same as that of Ognyan.
If so, then the ghost meditation method is very suspicious!
Santiago next to him saw this scene with a thoughtful expression on his face, as if he had seen such a weird spell that could kill people somewhere.
The wizard of the ghost... is a occult sect?
Unexpectedly, this kid is still a member of the Ghost School. Lacey is very lucky.
"Captain, him," Hector pointed at Wei En.
"Well, it should be." Santiago nodded, without saying anything more, but said, "Let's go to Natoli District." "
Okay."
Wei En pulled Tina to follow him. Going up, I glanced at the street next to me from the corner of my eye. Is it Vazquez again?
[You are targeted by Nette Vazquez’s murderous intent. Evaluation: Female, beautiful, good figure, very murderous...Reward: +5 survival points. 】
Good figure?
When did the panel become interested in this aspect?
After they all left, a slender figure walked out of the deep alley, glaring at the backs of Wei En and the others with hatred.
"Wayne... Next time we meet, I will make you pay the price!"
In the tavern not far from her, Claire crossed her two white legs, swayed the wine glass in her hand, and looked at this scene charmingly. .
His strength has improved again, no wonder he can escape from Poulsen.
That's great,
it seems that our Eternal Life Society is about to welcome a powerful member again...
Ghost, what's the deal with that kind of garbage school!
...
...
"I'm sorry, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you with what I promised you before."
Still in the bell tower of Krims Cathedral, Alais held a small wooden barrel and drank a lot of barley beer.
Seeing this, Andrews felt inexplicably sad, "It seems you have made a decision. Is it worth it?" "
It's not worth it. The world is the same without everyone. Just like this church, Mr. Without you, Archbishop Andrews, he will still be standing in the city-state of Custer."
"That's not necessarily the case..."
Alais raised the barrel and said with a smile: "It's time like this, so don't be so embarrassed. , Andrews."
"Cheers!"
The two of them seemed to be back when they were young again, drinking heavily and swaying their youth wantonly under the sunset.
"Alais, I have never understood why you are so prejudiced against our dawn?"
"Prejudice?" Alais chewed the word, his eyes full of disdain: "Do you understand it this way?"
"Even though it's been a long time since that incident, you still think it was us, Li Ming, who did it..." "
Andrews, you don't want me to leave the final battle to you, right?" A
cold voice sounded, as if the cold had never melted all year round. Ice, bitingly cold.
"Sorry," Andrews sighed, "I just don't want you to end your life in this way, not to mention that Custer City State still needs you." "Is
n't this fulfilling your wish?"
Alais sneered, "For so many years, the Parliament has been stuck in recruiting personnel for the Secret Service, and the Noble Council has reduced our funding, and you, Dawn..." "You are
inciting the residents of the city-state to become hostile to the Secret Service, aren't you?" "
Then It's because you are too tough. You must know that when your teacher was here, everyone supported him, but when he came to you, he ignored everyone except the consul." "My teacher is willing to bow his head, but I am not willing
. That's all."
Alais looked at him indifferently and put the wine barrel in his hand aside. "When I knew that the taboo was out of control and it was all deliberately caused by you bastards, I no longer had any illusions about you."
"..."
After hearing his words, Andrews closed his eyes in pain and said bitterly: "It was an accident. No one wanted it to happen, just like..." "Enough!"
Alais shouted in a low voice. : "I'm not here to hear your explanation."
"I just don't want to..."
Zila!
Dazzling silvery white cuts through the sky, and surging wind pours into the bell tower.
Dang, dang...
the night bell of Krims Cathedral was rung in this way.
Andrews sighed and said nothing more.
"The red moon is coming, Andrews."
Alais's whole body seemed to turn into lightning, flashing with dazzling silver-white electric light. His short gray hair gradually lengthened under the light, and a tiny spark connected it. The night sky blushed.
Boom!
A thick layer of dark clouds suddenly pulled over Custer, and the flashing lightning in the clouds was faintly visible.
Under these gloomy clouds, a red moon appeared, seeming to embellish the dark clouds, revealing a strange light.
Andrews pursed his lips, bowed slightly, and performed a rare dawn salute. He said lowly and slowly: "I will witness!"
I will witness the greatness, the legend, and the time...
When you are a boy, despair and fear cannot defeat you. .
When you are young, blood and fighting spirit surround you.
In his prime, he took on a mortal body and had the spirit of a god of war.
Until now - the entire West Coast resounds with your name!
I will witness your greatness, forge your legendary name, and praise your time with the glory of the dawn - Ales Coulibaly!
Alais's eyes were complicated and he did not look at his old friend beside him. "Goodbye, Andrews Herzog." Before he finished
speaking, his body had turned into a shining line of lightning, extending from the bell tower of Krims Cathedral. To the neighborhood of Laos.
The dazzling electric light instantly illuminated the entire city of Custer, and even the red moon in the night sky was slightly eclipsed. It was like a thunder god's sword, slamming into the cursed land!
Boom, boom, bang! !
After a long time, the lightning slowly dissipated...
Sorry, that's this chapter for today, I broke my promise.
I'm extremely sorry. I will make up for what I owe tomorrow. There are some gaps.
(End of chapter)
