The Modern Age of the Mysterious

Sean adjusted his gaze and looked towards the square.

Dark streets, black stone monuments, black ground...

At first Sean still thought he didn't see anything, so he frowned.

Suddenly, his brows stretched out, and his brain finally understood the scene printed on his eyes.

The square is a stone pavement, how could the ground be black?

The reason why it is black is because it is full of people wearing black robes.

Hundreds of people stood silently beside the black stele, all faces turned towards the stele...

No one spoke, not even a cough.

They were as quiet as the black fallen leaves that covered the square.

This strange scene made Sean have to look back at his companion.

Moonlight's eyes were full of surprise and puzzlement.

"Is there any danger, Sean?" Olivia, who had been in the next room, noticed the fluctuations in Sean's heart, and opened her red eyes in the darkness.

"Stand by for now," Sean felt his breath and felt his heart beat faster, "Don't make a sound."

Looking out of the window again, he wanted to figure out what the people in the square were doing.

Accompanied by the night wind, he heard someone in the square whisper the name on the stone tablet in a low voice:

"Martha Connery,

"Pete Larry...

...

His voice was so soft that Ye Feng easily blew it away.

After the name was pronounced, people began to pass on something.

Likewise, they keep quiet while doing these things.

After a while, they crouched down, as if eating something.

Sean squinted to see, only to find that each of them had a piece of raw meat in their hands.

Hundreds of people ate the raw meat of some kind of animal silently and silently in the middle of the night...

The sounds of them chewing raw meat, coming together through the window, made the scalp tingle and the roots of the teeth itchy.

Sean lowered the curtains.

He silently looked at the moonlight who also saw the scene just now.

"What shall we do?" Moonlight crouched in the darkness and asked the vibrating card.

As the elite of the explorers, they can rush to the scene to question when the locals are performing strange rituals...

Sean doesn't think Jung Yeol lurks evil that they can't suppress.

Still, it would be foolish to act rashly without knowing the truth of the matter.

"Go to sleep." Sean exhaled softly.

The two returned to their respective beds.

With keen hearing, Moonlight and Sean heard the light footsteps of people dispersing in the square.

They even heard someone downstairs opening the front door of the pub.

Moonlight and Sean looked at each other.

They remembered Mrs. Burger's warm smile.

The passionate face flashed before his eyes, tearing raw meat with his teeth in the dark.

What the **** happened in this town?

Soon, it seemed that people were finally back on track, and there was no trace of the square outside the window except for a pile of footprints.

Sean fell asleep amid all the speculation.

Moonlight didn't feel so good.

Although the crowd had dispersed, he could still hear the sound of hundreds of people chewing raw meat at the same time, and the sound gave him nightmares.

In his dream, he saw the townspeople groping into Mr. Pansha's room, kidnapping him, and dismembering him in the **** room...

Moonlight woke up again and again, and wanted to rush out of the door to have a look.

But when he saw Sean falling asleep breathing evenly, he forced himself to settle down.

"Olivia doesn't need to sleep. Sean will definitely keep her on alert all night. If someone really wants to harm us, she will definitely remind us..."

Thinking like this, he wrapped the quilt tightly in the cold night, and the soft and warm feeling before was gone.

...

When the moonlight opened his eyes again, the sun had already illuminated the sackcloth curtains. He wasn't sure how long he had slept.

Nothing happened overnight.

This made the pianists a little suspicious. The dark and quiet crowd they saw last night was just what they saw in a nightmare.

"Xiao, what happened last night?"

Sean was brushing his teeth in the bathroom, silent for a while, then shook his head.

Suddenly remembering the nightmare he had about Pansha last night, Yueguang quickly put on his clothes and walked out of the room.

When I opened the door, I saw the possessed Pansha wearing a mask, wearing a pair of plush slippers, with Erlang's legs crossed, drinking coffee and reading the newspaper.

When he saw Moonlight walk out of the room, he raised his head from the newspaper, with a smile in his voice: "I thought you were going to sleep more, so I didn't wake you up.

"Breakfast is on the first floor, you have to get it yourself."

Moonlight pretended to stretch easily.

After washing up, Sean and Moonlight went downstairs to get breakfast together.

Mrs. Berg was still smiling, and brought out coffee, toast, fried eggs from the back kitchen...

When Sean said thank you, Moonlight couldn't help looking at Mrs. Burger's smiling teeth--

He always felt that the woman still had raw meat stuck between her teeth.

At breakfast, Yueguang was the first to break the silence, he looked at Pan Sha: "Recently, I am learning about the folk customs and festivals in various places...

"Do you know what special customs Rong Yeer has?"

Following Moonlight's question, although Sean and Olivia didn't look at Pansha, they obviously perked up their ears secretly.

Pan Sha seemed to have just finished reading the newspaper, folded the "Kibek Sun" three days ago and put it in his hand, tapped his chin lightly: "A special custom?

"..." He thought for a while.

"Oh!" As if remembering something, he raised a finger: "Before winter comes, they will hold a bonfire party to celebrate that there is enough food for the winter!"

Moonlight, who was sitting up straight, suddenly bent down again: "No, I mean more... special customs."

In order to give Pansha some hints, Sean turned and looked out of the balcony behind him—you could see the square illuminated by the sun, and the stone monument that cast a shadow on the square like a sundial.

Pan Sha's gaze, obviously following Sean's suggestion, was directed towards the stele.

He thought for a while, then shook his head.

Can't ask anyone about the secret scene~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Sean and the three of them can only temporarily seal this secret.

Together with Pan Sha, they came to the office of Rong Yeer's Quest branch - the investigation they want to carry out, involving the missing quest, can only be done through channels in the industry.

Before the wooden house engraved with the "Eye of Mystery" logo, before finding the local businessman to obtain more information, Sean and Pansha finally decided to exchange their respective purposes for this trip - after a long time together, they have basically recognized The other party is the "scarlet letter" (Note: the term of explorer, which means the explorer who acts with justice, as opposed to the "black letter".).

Moreover, in the mission in this resource-poor Northland, any possible help and support is indispensable.

After hearing that the three of Sean were looking for their lost teammates, Pan Sha obviously blinked in surprise.

"That's really weird..." He even took a step back, the soles of his leather boots squeaking from the dirty snow.

He took turns looking at the masks of the three, and then said, "I came to Rong Yeer this time to find someone."
