Part 3 The Traveler Chapter 57 Late Night Action
”When an outsider takes up this holy sword, God will reappear on earth.”
”But what if the holy sword breaks?”
Two such phrases echoed within Karat and Edmonton’s minds, completely hitting a blind spot in their knowledge.
For so many dozens of seconds, they looked at the shattered holy sword with frozen expressions, unable to speak.
They couldn’t believe that the holy sword, which had only been touched by an outsider in the evening, had shattered so suddenly!
What did this mean? What did it mean? The two did not dare to think deeply, as if they had gone back to the time when a hidden stronghold of the Resistance was discovered by the Lune military and was swept away without warning, all of the fathers of the two died in that massacre, and their female relatives were taken captive and trafficked to different places, and before they received the bad news, the moods of Karat and Edmundon were just like this time, precipitation, panic, anticipation and anxiety mixed into a strong depression.
”Go back to the jungle, find the high priest, find out why, perhaps, this is the latest revelation from the gods …… ” Karat turned his wheelchair and said in a deep voice.
Edmonton immediately stood up and addressed his remaining men:
”You continue to look for the blasphemers, but do not stay here.
”Also, instruct the faithful outside not to hold any ceremonies or even pray recently!”
Things took an unexpected turn, making him extra vigilant.
……
Byam, on the corner of the street where the Church of the Waves is located.
Holding a stack of folded white papers, Daniz asked with a sideways glance, a little nervous, a little worried and a little puzzled:
”You mean, stick them in different parts of this street, ending with the doors of the Church of the Waves?”
He was terrified that the church doors would suddenly open and a swarm of fist-waving priests and bishops would rush out and directly attack without asking the reason for his posting of the bulletins.
Klein kept his cool and said:
”Yes.”
His original intention was to pass the matter of “Sea God” Kavituva to Mr. “The Hanged Man”, who would alert the Storm Church, but considering that the other party still held the secrets of Banshee Harbor in his hands, and might even have already handed them over, it would be easy to attract suspicion if he came back with important information in a short period of time, so he finally decided to post the notice without asking why he posted it. However, considering that the other party still holds the secret of Banshee Harbor in their hands and may have even handed it over, another important information in a short period of time would be very easy to attract people’s suspicion.
As for the method, it is very simple, put a few notices on the door of the “substitution of punishment”, so that they can be seen as soon as they come out.
This plan in the implementation of a little problem, that is, Klein can not distinguish which store around the sea wave church which company is the “substitution of punishment” external identity, had to let Daniz hard a little bit, will be conspicuous places are posted again, including but not limited to the main door of the sea wave church.
…… I should have just run away before …… Why am I thinking that this guy kind of saved my life, maybe because if I were any other powerful adventurer, I would have turned into a golden pound …… No, who would have thought that this madman solved the curse of “Neptune” so easily, running away might have been even worse …… Danez lamented in his heart, unfolded the stack of white paper, and casually scanned the contents:
”Laetitia Dorella and the others entered the ‘Sea God’ relics on the island of Simeon and left, pursued by the resistance; at the same time, Karat and the other resistance forces are selling a slightly curved strange bone sword; ‘Sea God’ Kavituva’s form is on the verge of collapsing, and his body is on the verge of collapsing. ‘s form is on the verge of collapse and his mental state is extremely insane.”
…… Danez froze for two seconds and subconsciously glanced at Germaine Sparrow.
I can understand the first, but why would there be “Neptune” Kavituva’s form is on the verge of collapse, the state of mind is extremely crazy and other descriptions …… How did Germaine Sparrow know? How did Germaine Sparrow know? Did he discover the problem in the process of solving the Poseidon curse? How did he solve the Poseidon curse? The organization behind him is even more powerful and terrifying than I imagined. …… Could it be, could it be similar to the Aurora Society, serving a real god? The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became.
He first heard of the “Aurora Club” from a sea plunder, when he first saw the captain appeared to stare expression, and then was taught some of the so-called mystical world of common sense.
Klein responded to Danitz’s gaze with an emotionless one.
In that bulletin, he discarded his own subjective speculations, describing only those things that he could be certain of, making sure not to interfere with the judgment of the Storm Church hierarchy.
Among them, the content of Laticia and others taking an important item was deleted, the lost temple was changed to a broader and more inclusive “Neptune” relics, and the stronghold that Karat and others would obviously abandon after realizing that the “Neptune” matter had gone awry was also omitted.
Daniz withdrew his gaze sharply, not daring to look again.
The captain had said that the more you knew about someone’s secrets, the more dangerous it was! He thought for a moment, worried:
”Posting it to the front door of the church like this will surely draw a great deal of attention from the Storm Church.
”Will they find out that I did it?”
Klein gave the answer succinctly:
”It will.”
…… Danez forced a smile and said:
”Then I’m not in danger?”
Klein used his “Joker” ability to control his expression and replied calmly:
”You were originally a pirate with a bounty on your head.”
Do you think that you can just waltz through the main streets of Byam now? Klein mentally slurred.
Also yeah, they’re going to capture me and put a bounty on me no matter what …… No, that’s a bit of a problem! Danez said offhandedly:
”But my bounty will go up!”
Klein looked at him and didn’t say anything, just grinned a little.
At this instant, it was as if Daniz heard a rhetorical question:
Isn’t this a good thing?
An ass-kicking good thing! Daniz laughed dryly twice, took the stack of bulletins and posted them in a conspicuous place on the street near the Church of the Waves, taking advantage of the late night and the wind.
It really looks like a small advertisement …… with one hand in his pocket Klein watched from afar and commented in his heart.
He whirled around and sighed:
It’s nice to have an assistant, at least you don’t have to do such a bit of falling off the grid by yourself …… If you were to do Tingen or Becklander that time, if there was something similar …… The picture is too beautiful to think about ……
Danez finally came outside the Church of the Waves and taped the bulletin to the front door, then, clenching his fists, thumped on the door.
After all this, he turned his head and ran, as if behind him there are already ten “substitution of punishment” wildly running out.
Not daring to slow down, Klein pulled out the paper man, shook his wrist and flung it away, letting it burn to ashes as he quickly moved to another street.
After the last few encounters, he has deeply realized the style of the “Punishers”, and did not dare to be careless in the slightest.
Until they were far away from the Church of the Sea Waves, the two of them slowed down and resumed their normal walking speed.
Daniz was in good physical condition, and at this time, he was still not red in the face or short of breath.
He asked with a slight sense of doubt:
”Why don’t you just write a letter and throw it into the police station, or throw it into the Governor’s Office?”
Without waiting for Klein to answer, he had already realized:
”It’s also true that the lower level police and Governor’s Office clerks are all locals, and will likely sympathize with the Resistance, or even be hidden ‘Neptune’ believers themselves.”
As they spoke, the two of them turned the corner and saw a red building covering an extremely large area in front of them, inside it was brightly lit, music was faintly transmitted, and people were coming and going at the entrance, alternating with carriages, without any feeling of a late night.
”Ha, I can’t believe I walked here.” Danez was stunned for a second before a smile that all men understood surfaced.
The Red Theater? The theory-knowledgeable Klein dawned on him at once.
Daniz hemmed and hawed:
”This is one of the most famous places in the entire Sunia Sea, with mysterious and flavorful Byron girls, passionate and hot Feneport women, open and seductive Intis girls, tall and fit Forsak girls, conservative and quiet Ruen ladies, and gentle and tame locals …… ”
This guy knows a lot …… often? Klein swept a glance at “Flame”, did not say anything.
Daniz inexplicably had a feeling of being seen through, suddenly embarrassed and laughed:
”This is all the pirates bragging about, I have only come a few times.
”In the past is not much money, can only find the general, and mainly in the Misty Sea side, and then joined the ‘Golden Dream’ ship ……”
No wonder …… although “Iceberg Lieutenant General” under the good treatment, often can share the treasure, but to save several houses in Bayam, is also quite difficult …… compared to the general pirate This guy at least knows how to be moderate and know how to save money …… Klein thought in a dazed manner.
Daniz didn’t want to continue this topic and digressed:
”In Bayam, there are a lot of standing girls, especially there.”
He pointed off in the distance:
”A pirate once made an attempt, knocking on a random family’s door, taking out money, requesting to have a time with the hostess, and as a result, three to four out of ten families agreed, tsk tsk, if it’s a standard Ruin look-alike like you, then almost no one will refuse, and will only quietly hide their own daughters from you, heh, every year, Ruin’s navy commits multiple murders here, rapes of young girls, not much better than the pirates, but they will only be driven back home, and pay a small fine at most ……”
Klein listened quietly, his mind suddenly recalled the group of “Neptune” worshippers gathered around the pool to pray in the evening, and recalled their fervent and numb faces.
……
Birkeland, in the villa of the Audra family.
Emlyn White, who had voluntarily exposed certain problems, followed Casimir somewhat nervously into the underground area, and once again came to the gray stone hall where the black iron-colored coffin was parked.
”Honorable Lord Nebais, why have you summoned me?” Although Emlyn had already rehearsed a similar scene dozens of times in his mind, he still couldn’t completely remove the tightness and apprehension within his heart.
In such a state, he suddenly figured out a problem, from a dramaturgical point of view, the character he played should be secretly worried and afraid at this moment.
There is no need for a special disguise …… I did it well! Emlyn suddenly calmed down quite a bit.
A deep, thick and old voice came out from within the coffin covered in symbols and magical markings:
”To commend you.
”For the sake of the Patriarchs, you risked your prayers to the ‘Fool’, and although you were not answered, you still took a great risk, and this is an act that must be commended.
”Here is a promissory note for 7,000 pounds, a reward given to you, which was not given to you in time before because of the great haze incident at Birkeland, and it is not too late now.
”At the same time, you must always pay attention to yourself, can not relax, what abnormalities immediately tell Casimir.”
Really gave me money …… Emlyn almost forgot to close his mouth.
