Chapter 118 Familiar People
Lunch was over and Ronald was walking on the road back to Burrenwich.
After returning to the church at noon, the priest had already recorded various encounters during the completion of his mission.
If nothing else happens, no more fishermen will die in the town tomorrow.
Things here are truly over.
However, it was precisely because of the necessary recording work that Ronald told the priest all about the discovery of the grimoire, and he made a thorough record.
Ronald had no intention of keeping the useless magic book in his hands.
There is no way to hide the dead blacksmith and the magic wave.
If you bite the bullet and cause trouble, you will only cause trouble for yourself. It is better to go back and hand this thing over to the investigation bureau.
And if real locals can identify it, they may be able to find out some information that Ronald himself cannot see.
With this thought in his mind, Ronald walked slowly on the road.
After dealing with the problems in the village, he no longer had anything important to deal with personally.
And now Berenwich is still in the midst of a fierce confrontation between the Bureau of Investigation and the cult warlocks.
He is very happy to take a walk after meals, which is supposed to promote digestion.
Quack, quack—
suddenly, an unpleasant crow call came from the sky.
Ronald looked up and saw a lone black bird flying overhead, then landed in the woods not far from the road.
"."
Ronald's mood was a little complicated, and his eyes were a little tangled.
He had seen the animal world when he was a child and knew something about crows.
The facts were right in front of him, and he had no choice.
Silently, Ronald summoned the original text from his sleeves, and then whispered softly:
"Its name is Styx,
and the black water flows down to the foot of the dim and steep cliff.
"
Description The verse "Rage" was read out, and black mist immediately gathered in his sleeves.
But at this moment, something strange happened.
After the black mist formed in the 'Rage' emerged, Ronald gained the ability to perceive, but he did not notice any humans with special emotions around him.
Except for the pedestrians who were also walking on this official road, he didn't find anyone who posed a threat at all!
How is this going?
Is it because I am too sensitive? The crows in this world like to be alone?
Ronald's moment of self-doubt didn't last long.
After almost two or three breaths, he suddenly stopped.
Because at the edge of the forest where the crow fell, he saw a figure walking out of it.
It was a strong man.
He was wearing a pure black coat, and his whole body was hidden in the shadows of the woods. At the same time, his downcast eyes were still staring at him.
But the fatal thing is more than that.
Ronald knew this man.
——Lammer.
The man who assassinated Niklaus on the Dongfeng and was then hunted down by the military.
He escaped pursuit by official forces and now appears here.
Still staring at yourself!
--immediately.
——An even more puzzling thing happened.
Ronald noticed a new problem.
The power of 'fury' that had been fully summoned was actually unable to detect the existence of this man!
Before, whether it was a warlock from a cult or a blacksmith who fell into complete madness, their emotions and behavior did not meet the requirements of the spell, so Ronald could not deal with them.
But the situation for this man named Lamer was completely different.
The power of 'Rage' cannot detect his presence! He raised his eyebrows as
if
this guy had no human emotions , but Ronald didn't get too entangled in this issue. Instead, he quickly went through his experience in his mind. ——The first thing to be clear about now. It was Lamer who showed up here and targeted himself. Soon, Ronald's mind focused on two things. The first is Patricia. This girl came from the Nicklaus family and went to Burrenwich to investigate the assassination of a family member. Ramer, as the culprit in the case, is most likely investigating the people who appeared next to Patricia; the second more suspicious person is the magic book that Ronald just got. The timing of the other party's appearance was so coincidental that one could not help but suspect that the other party's purpose was related to this thing. "." Thinking of this, Ronald simply smiled brightly at Lamer. At the same time, Ramo stood under the forest and stared at him solemnly. But the next second, Lamer's eyes were no longer solemn. The smile on Ronald's face in the distance disappeared fleetingly, and the man Rammer was staring at immediately ran away! - Target Burrenwich. Ronald ran wildly with the momentum to test the limits of his endurance and speed! This sudden escape action made Lamer in the distance freeze on the spot, unable to even maintain the dark and low aura on his body. His eyes were a little strange and curious. I originally thought that the other party, as an original code holder, would come over to compete with me after seeing me. But in the end, this guy turned around and ran away? Is this really what a code controller should do? Watching Ronald who is gradually going away, and then looking at the ordinary passers-by who are attracted by Ronald. Lamer finally gave up and shook his head, turned around and retreated into the woods. The figure gradually disappeared into the darkness, and the crow's crow sounded in the sky, and everything seemed to be calm again. On the other side, Ronald had no time to pay attention to Lamer who had disappeared. He really took out the milk and ran a long distance. Running all the way back to Burrenwich, he regarded it as a test of his endurance. But it’s only a few miles away. He was also really out of breath. Ronald could have sworn to heaven that in his last life and this life together, he did not have the energy to run such an exaggerated distance in one go.
"."
"Sir, do you need help?"
Just as Ronald stopped to take a breath, the patrol officers on the streets of Burrenwich saw him and immediately came over to ask about the situation.
"It's okay."
"I'm just practicing long-distance running and getting some exercise by the way."
Ronald waved his hand towards the other party, and at the same time, the investigator's certificate in his hand was also displayed in his eyes.
Seeing such a mark, the patrol immediately realized that this person was not the person he should contact.
Without saying a word, he immediately turned around and left.
At this time, Ronald straightened his back and looked behind him.
In sight, there were only passers-by walking in and out of Burrenwich City, and some residents walking outside.
Ramo in the woods did not catch up, so he should be safe.
"Huh--"
Ronald let out a long sigh of relief and subconsciously touched his chest.
The lost magic book just stayed there.
So.
Now go back to the Investigation Bureau and hand in the magic book in your hand.
As for what happens next -
you can contact Patricia, and the two of you can discuss the issues related to Lamer.
