Mystique:Demon Hunter

Gawain looked at the sky outside and found that he had slept from afternoon to morning.

He stood up, opened the door, came to the captain's cabin door, and knocked on the door.

"Please come in."

Gawain pushed the door open and went in, and found that the table in the captain's room was covered with papers. Each piece of paper was painted with various occult symbols, and there were many words that Gawain could not recognize.

Edwina was sitting at the table, looking at the notebook on the table and lost in thought.

"Captain, you... didn't sleep all night, did you?" Gawain asked in surprise.

"I am already a Sequence Five Beyonder, and I no longer need a long period of sleep to maintain my energy."

Good guy, he is a big shot in the world of immortality.

Gawain observed carefully and found that the captain's face was still radiant and did not have the fairy aura brought about by long-term cultivation of immortality, so he felt relieved and asked:

"So, Captain, have you made any progress?"

"Now that we have some clues, we should be able to produce results within a few days."

Edwina looked away from the notebook, looked up at him, and asked, "What's the matter with you?"

"It's like this. After experiencing some academic exchanges with the captain yesterday, I deeply realized the charm of knowledge, and also deeply felt the shortcomings of my own knowledge."

"So?" Edwina's expression remained unchanged.

"So, I came here to borrow one or two occult books from the captain to make up for my own shortcomings."

"I've already prepared it for you."

"I hope the captain can...ah?" Gawain was stunned for a moment.

Edwina took out a large stack of thick books from under the table and said calmly:

"I discovered when I was talking to you yesterday that your knowledge of occult science is very lacking, so I have prepared some books for you that you need and am preparing to have them delivered to you today."

"Oh...then, thank you Captain." Gawain looked at the thick pile and didn't know what to say.

"Take these first, there will be more later."

"..."

"Then, Captain, I will go back first."

Gawain had no choice but to pick up the book, which was almost half a person's height, and turned around to leave.

"Well, next time if you have something to say, just tell me directly without making a long speech."

"good……"

Gawain returned to his room, put the book on the desk, and let out a heavy sigh.

He hesitated in front of the desk for a while, then turned around and went out.

"Come back and read in the evening, and go out for a walk during the day."

Gawain came to the deck and found Daniz who was drinking.

"Dear Mr. Lieyan, do you want to go shopping in the city with me?"

Daniz was in a panic when he heard Gawain's invitation and immediately agreed, and the two got off the boat together.

"Do you have any fun places? Or how about I take you to the Red Theater? From the look of you, you haven't been there yet, right?" Daniz said with a smile.

"Forget it about the Red Theater, aren't you afraid of being discovered by the captain?" Gawain teased.

"What does this have to do with the captain?" Daniz asked doubtfully.

"Don't you like the captain?"

"Ahem, you misunderstood. I only have deep admiration for the captain, and I don't have the same feelings between men and women." Daniz said seriously.

"Really? I don't believe it."

"I don't care if you believe it or not. Do you have a destination? If you just want to hang out, I won't accompany you."

"Has there been a pirate fight in Bayam City recently?" Gawain asked.

"Pirate fires? Pirate fires in this city are nothing new." Daniz said as usual.

"It happened yesterday."

"Oh, I know what you want to ask." Daniz suddenly understood.

"Can you tell me in detail?" Gawain is still a little worried about the incident that led to his death.

"If we talk about yesterday's incident, it is said that the two pirate groups Blackwater and Death Flag were competing for an extraordinary item." Daniz replied.

"Extraordinary items? If it can cause competition, the effect should be very powerful." Gawain asked curiously.

"Hey, two small pirate groups of more than a dozen people are just robbing it. It is said to be a ring that can make people flash within a range of dozens of meters." Daniz said nonchalantly.

"Sounds like a very good effect, but there are only two small pirate groups trying to rob it. Its negative effects are very serious?" Gawain asked with some interest.

"It reacts very quickly. Yes, this thing will continuously murmur to the person wearing it, and the negative effects will be enhanced during the full moon."

"There was a serial eight pirate who went crazy after wearing it before, so we big pirate groups are basically not very interested in it," Daniz said.

"Because it's not worth it?"

"Well, the negative effects affect its value. It's not worth fighting other pirate groups for this."

"What, do you have any ideas about this thing?" Daniz asked.

"This thing is destined to me, and there is still some grudge between me and them." Gao Wen said lightly.

"So, we are going to have sex directly at your door now?" Daniz did not explore the reason why Gawain was not afraid of talking, but just made a note of it in his mind.

"No, I have to check out the locations in the city first, and then when the time is right, I will come to find them." Gawain replied.

"Shit! You want me to be your tour guide."

"Hey, we've come this far. Why don't we just sit on the deck and be in a daze when we get back? I'll treat you to a drink later."

"I want to drink the most expensive one."

"no problem."

After that, Gawain, under the leadership of Daniz, figured out the entire route structure of Bayam, and also learned about some hidden paths, which benefited him a lot.

In the next few days, Gawain spent the day sparring with Daniz to digest the warrior potion.

In my free time, I went back to my room to read the occult books sent by Edwina, and at night I accepted the bloody torture from the demon dog in my trial dream.

Until one morning.

"Captain, are you looking for me?" Gawain walked into the captain's room and asked.

He saw that Edwina's expression looked a little serious, and he wondered if there was something wrong with the research on the secret technique. Could it be that the research on the secret technique failed?

Edwina motioned for him to sit down, and then began to arrange the ceremony in the room just like the day they first met.

After the ceremony arrangements were completed, Edwina came to the table and sat down.

Gawain looked at her and asked: "Captain, you don't look good. Is it because your secret research failed?"

"No, the secret technique was successful." Edwina shook her head and said, her voice was calm and her emotions could not be heard.

"Originally, what I wanted to research first was a secret technique that could support you in devouring the Six Sequence Demons, and then slowly improve it."

"This is pretty good." Gawain said.

"But when the secret technique is about to be completed," Edwina said with a complicated expression:

"I received the oracle."
