Chapter 642 New Witch Hunting Operation
Collecting the few currencies of this country in this limited time and space that he had earned from working part-time jobs overnight, Shaqiu took to the street after declining the bar owner's invitation to stay and become a regular employee.
An abandoned old newspaper was blown to Sand Dune's legs by the wind, and he leaned over to pick it up and read it.
The headlines about the new witch hunt are eye-catching.
Ye Xiang Country and Sun Rising Country are neighboring countries. A large area of their land is separated by a towering mountain range. Only a gentle slope and the inland sea are the real connecting nodes.
Yexiang Country is the initiator of this world war in this boundary time and space. Of course, it will soon be labeled as a defeated country.
The overall political power in Yexiang changed again at the end of the war. The new monarch chose to cease the war, and the general trend in Yexiang accepted the reality of defeat.
However, the remnants of the old emperor did not accept this announcement. Even though the old emperor was dead, there were still a large number of military generals who did not accept the new emperor's rule and continued to resist.
When all frontal forces were overwhelmed by the new imperial army and foreign coalition forces, the old imperial remnant army chose to break into pieces, preparing to go deep into the enemy behind the neighboring Sunrise Kingdom in all directions, or carry out large-scale assassinations, or It’s time to lurk and wait for a comeback.
As for where the remnants of the Yexiang old emperor's army who are now running out of ammunition and food come from, it is precisely because the old Yexiang emperor, when he was in decline when bad news spread frequently during the war, placed his hope on those illusory legends and hoped to rely on supernatural power to turn defeat into victory. .
Judging from the results, he must have failed.
If it succeeded, the war situation would have been reversed long ago.
But according to some anecdotal rumors, the old emperor seemed to have really gained something in the final period, and cultivated an elite witchcraft army. The soldiers inside were all evil wizards, mastering witchcraft that desecrated science and natural laws.
I don’t know whether this is true or not, but the infiltration of the remnants of the old emperor in Yexiang has been confirmed.
From the official propaganda point of view, the new witch hunting operation is not really about hunting witches, but labeling the remnants of the Night Village remnants as immoral "witches" and calling on the public to be vigilant if anything goes wrong. If you find any, you can try to report it to help the authorities catch these infiltrators.
There is a market for wizard culture here, because this world is said to have had a very large witch hunt.
The scale was even greater than the witch hunt in the entire world history that Wan Yi knew.
Although in this era, the bad events caused by this absurd old idea are still criticized and spurned by the people, the story of the wizard is still well-known to every household.
This is related to the trend of scientism popular in the current society. With the development of science and technology, "science" with obvious limitations has become something like a new religion.
And supernatural witchcraft and wizards will be severely spurned by scientism!
The official propaganda of Sunrise Kingdom is very particular.
As soon as the name "Wizard" and "New Witch Hunting" came into being, it responded to the current trend of thought among the people and could quickly spread the propaganda to the whole country.
Sand Dune read the column in the newspaper about "Beware of 'Wizards' Around You", which emphasized some obvious "supernatural" phenomena.
For example, some people often sneak around, wearing dark clothes, walking on the road, and spying on others.
For example, some people live and act irregularly.
For example, there are people with unknown origins, unknown jobs, and strange accents.
For example, objects move without warning or even float.
For example, driven animals and abnormal behaviors of animals, such as birds, cats, dogs, rats, etc., may become the sustenance of wizards.
Like supernatural fire making.
Such as being invulnerable, or being injured without any wounds, and the wounds heal quickly.
…
Except for the top few columns, which guide the public to report unknown persons with strange movements, the content below seems to have been added by an obscure editor himself.
If you can do this, you must be a real wizard even if you are not from Yexiang.
Suddenly Sand Dune saw an item in this column: for example, the abnormal growth and movement of plants.
dune:"……"
It’s not easy to get around in Sunrise Country during this period.
He looked around and suddenly found some people on the street corner pointing at him and whispering.
He was confused for a moment, then realized.
Even if he does not display plant abilities, his current appearance and blank resume are consistent with the first few official descriptions of a suspicious person.
As mentioned in the information, the "Withered Red" boundary zone is completely silent, and naturally it will not do such things as assigning identities to people.
There is a sense of déjà vu that appears in an unfortunate place at an unfortunate time.
The top priority was that he couldn't forget that he was here to see Red.
Of course Red has provided a spell that can help find him.
If it was the supervisor brother who came, then the arrangements would probably have been made, but the supervisor brother did not intend to go out on the grounds that "his unicorn was successfully bred and became pregnant and needs close care", and although Shaqiu had knowledge in his head, he had no idea at hand. The power is completely different.
In this case, we can only take things step by step and find a stable place first.
He quickly walked away.
"Next, let's just leave the city. This city is not easy to stay in." He said in his heart.
His face was seen, and the bar owner must have been impressed by him and knew that he was an unemployed vagrant who didn't know the details. After the owner read the newspaper and understood the situation, in the worst case scenario, he would definitely go to the official to complain.
In addition, he was pointed at by passers-by just now.
Of course, it's not a problem for Wan Yi to change his face.
But come on, this is the face of Dune.
Wan Yi rarely paints matryoshka dolls, especially for faces that he is used to, so he simply skips the option of making another one.
"There's a wizard here! Catch him!"
Sha Qiu was walking when he suddenly heard a shout from behind him.
I was shocked: The unscrupulous people here reacted so quickly?
When I looked back, I realized that it wasn't me.
A skinny little old man bumped into pedestrians and ran quickly. He was not young but he was walking as fast as flying. It was he who was accused of being a wizard.
If you are really innocent, then it doesn't matter if you are identified. After all, it is not a true indiscriminate witch hunt, and modern law enforcement is not the "I say you are who you are" situation in the ancient times.
Those who realize this will not despair if they are accused. If they take the time to prove themselves, they will be innocent in the future.
But if he ran away, no matter whether he was from Ye Xiang or not, there must be someone behind him.
Knowing that he was not referring to himself, Shaqiu was very calm.
As a result, as soon as the idea came to him, he had to run away again.
Because he saw the bar owner who had just paid him his odd job leading a group of Sunrise guards out of the street corner.
"Yes, he asked me to do odd jobs at that time and said he could bartend. I agreed because he was young and pitiful. But now that I think about it, his skills are a bit too sophisticated, and it doesn't look like he belongs to a real homeless person. I think He was asked to become a full-time employee and offered a rich reward, but he refused and never said where he was from, and his accent was indeed strange."
As the bar owner was talking, he suddenly saw the back of Sha Qiu. He was stunned for a moment and then realized: "Mr. Guard! That's him!"
The corners of Shaqiu's mouth twitched.
bingo.
He has hit all the features he should have. Next, should he directly show everyone what "abnormal growth or movement of plants" means?
At the same time, the little old man who had been identified before also passed by the sand dune.
"It's two wizards! They're both wizards! Get them!"
"Damn Nightlanders!"
The enthusiastic people around him quickly joined the pursuit of the "wizard", and even the guards chased him vigorously.
Shaqiu reluctantly stepped forward to keep up with the little old man.
When he was level with the little old man, the little old man grinned at the sand dune.
An attitude of "Are you on the same team?"
Haha, it was originally said that Red's world was peaceful and everything was fine after the demise of the vampire clan.
Now it seems that there is still a question mark.
