Wizard: Gou adds some demon hunting in the Steam Age

help?

Wayne remembered that the last time Claire said this, she still asked him to keep the necklace.

No, I want to stay with him temporarily.

This time...

"In fact, I don't know much about the crisis in Custer City State this time."

The charm on Claire's face was gone, and she played with a cane in her hand expressionlessly. From the brass texture and rough appearance, it could be seen that this was not her personal belongings.

Wayne didn't ask, waiting for her next words.

Due to the lack of a lot of basic common sense, the information he had in his hands was like rootless duckweed, which gave people a very awkward feeling.

For example, the Sect of Desire in the Nightless City, the conflict between the Sect of Despair and the Eternal Life Society, the conflict between the Vazquez and Seres families, and the relationship between the various parties in the city of Castor...

"I remember I told you last time that I came to Custer City State only after something happened."

"Well, it's because of that volume of era relics."

Claire folded her hands together, as if she had just noticed Tina, and stared at her face, to be precise, her dull eyes.

There was no reflection of her in those pupils?

It's a pity that my eyes are so big that I can't use them as mirrors...

"Actually, I am not very clear about the process of the loss of the relic. It was only after I came here that I found out that it had been found and collected by you. Do you know what is recorded on it?"

"Um, don't you know?"

"Probably," Claire said with certainty, "I don't know."

"You don't know what's on it??" Wei En looked at her in surprise.

"I'm not a scholar who specializes in the Gonzalez language, and there are too many relics from the era in the Eternal Life Society. No one is interested in looking through the past volumes."

"So, you just came to Custer without knowing anything?"

"Is it weird? It just so happens that I have time, and it just so happens that I want to change city-states," Claire tilted her head and looked at him, with the corners of her mouth raised slightly.

"Not surprisingly……"

Wei En didn't know how to describe her, so he could only say: "It contains information about the location of forbidden objects."

"What forbidden object?"

"this,"

"Don't worry, as long as the forbidden object is more than ten kilometers away from you, there won't be much of a problem. And those forbidden objects are very discerning, and they are not interested in wizard apprentices like you."

"ten kilometers……"

This was the first time that Wei En knew about such a restriction, but it seemed that it was useless to know. He had encountered forbidden objects that were progressing before, and they were all very close to him.

He didn't know whether other wizard apprentices could arouse interest in forbidden objects.

But he can arouse interest in forbidden objects.

"Tell me," Claire said with a stunned expression, "Don't tell me that it's not far from here?"

"Probably, maybe, it's closer than you think."

"Still closer?"

"Forbidden object 0-34 revived coffin is located..."

Before he finished speaking, Wei En's expression suddenly changed.

[You mentioned "Forbidden Object 0-34 Resurrection Coffin", attracting its attention. Your fate has changed. The current encounter progress is 50/100. Rating: Do you know the lighthouse? You are. Special rewards: Survival Points +30, Origin +3, Spirit Level +4, Resilience Level +4. 】

50...

No way?

I remember that when he saw the resurrected coffin with his own eyes before, it only increased the progress by ten points, but this time he just mentioned a name...

what's the situation?

"Forbidden Object 0-34 Resurrection Coffin, you... huh?"

Claire chewed on the name and saw that he looked distracted. She raised her hand and tapped his forehead, "You can still be distracted when talking to me. Isn't it because I'm not dressed up enough today?"

As she spoke, the clothes on her body slowly took off, revealing a large area of ​​white... skirt.

[When you hear "Forbidden Object 0-34 Resurrection Coffin", your destiny trajectory will change to a certain extent, and the current encounter progress is 60/100. Comment: I probably understand how you feel now, my condolences. Special rewards: Survival Points +10, Origin +1, Spirit Level +2, Resilience Level +2. 】

"..."

Come again? ?

Under Claire's surprised gaze, Wayne grabbed her hand and forced a smile on his face, "Promise me not to mention this name in front of me."

"Forbidden object 0... Wu, Wu Wu?"

Wei En directly covered her mouth tightly and said without tears: "Don't say it, it, it's too sensitive. If you say it a few times, I'm afraid it will come out."

"Woo, woo woo... Nenega Gladiator?"

"Huh?" Wei En let go and clasped his hands together: "Don't ever mention its name again."

"Hmm, can you feel it?"

Claire took a deep breath and looked at him doubtfully, "You can't, right? Forbidden objects are always hidden from Destiny. Except for a few props, few people can discover its existence."

"Just don't mention it anyway."

Wayne couldn't explain the existence of the panel, but he knew very well that if he heard the name of the resurrected coffin a few more times, it would be over. The demon clown was suppressed by Tina, which caused him a lot of trouble.

If there is another resuscitated coffin, will he still be alive?

"I didn't expect that in addition to being able to distinguish between my body and my puppet, you could also detect the gaze of forbidden objects..." Claire licked her tongue, "I am becoming more and more interested in you."

Wei En glared at her angrily, and was too lazy to continue entangled with her on this topic. He asked directly: "You ask, does today's incident have something to do with that forbidden object?"

He had been thinking about the recent series of events in Custer City State and the reasons behind them.

If someone is after that forbidden object... it's very possible!

The resurrected coffin is a powerful forbidden object that can resurrect the dead. It is not surprising that someone wants to get it.

"No," Claire shook her head, "I just want you to know that I came to this city-state without any big goals."

"so what?"

“So, some of the things I do are purely out of curiosity.”

curious……

Wayne was extremely depressed.

Just because of his curiosity, he reached 60% of the progress of reviving the coffin. How angry!

Looking at Claire... the pure white short skirt she just changed into, I really want to give her a hard blow now.

"Then I met you, and then a series of things happened, which made it impossible for me to leave here in a short time."

Claire crossed her legs and glanced at Tina with interest. When she was changing her clothes just now, the white-haired girl's eyes seemed to be a little brighter?

that's it?

Wayne frowned, "I just want to know what happened in Basil's neighborhood."

"...Boring," Claire rolled her eyes at him, "Those people from the Black Pearl are digging secret passages underground."

"Secret passage?" Wei En pointed to the ground, "Are they down there?"

"Well, it looks like they want to dig into the Natoli neighborhood."

There?

In the underground buildings, all Wei En could think of was the city that never sleeps, where the city-state magic circle is...

Could it be that the Black Pearl is trying to create a city-state formation?

"Do you know their purpose?"

"It's not clear yet," Claire chuckled, "but I just know that it must be a very interesting thing."

"More interesting than the parasites of the Abyss Religion?"

"The Abyss Cult...Humph, I will have to pay the price for Poulson sooner or later."

"Yes, yes, you are the best." Wei En said perfunctorily.

"After telling you your story," Claire took out a letter and handed it to him, "Send a letter for me."

"Send..." Wei En just glanced at the envelope and did not take it, "You have so many puppets, you can just send them there at will. Do you still need me to help you?"

"If it can be delivered, do I still need your help? Look clearly!"

Claire straightened the envelope, pointed to the name on it and said, "This letter is for Alais Coulibaly, the director of your secret coordination department."

"I would like to send him there, but he doesn't leave the Secret Adjustment Department at all, and I can't get in there..."

"That's it,"

Wayne thought for a moment and accepted the letter, "I can help you deliver the letter, but you have to help me investigate the purpose of the Black Pearl's secret tunnel."

"make a deal!"

Claire stretched out her white little hand.

Snapped.

Wayne high-fived her to seal the deal, "If there's nothing else, I'll go on the mission first."

"Mission? Parasite's?"

"Um."

"Then don't bother,"

After finishing talking about the business, Claire seemed to be relieved, "The magic circle here is not a decoration. Even if there are parasites, they have already killed them."

Finished killing?

That saved him a lot of energy.

"you……"

Boom, boom, boom!

At this moment, three violent explosions sounded in succession.

Wei En could feel the shaking around him, like a giant cannon hitting the ground, causing violent vibrations.

"Um?"

"It seems like there's a fight outside." A flash of excitement flashed across Claire's face, "I'm going to watch the fun, don't forget to deliver the letter for me."

"Wait, I'm going too."

With that said, Wei En quickly pulled Tina and ran outside.

I don't know how long he stayed here, and he almost forgot about Santiago and the others.

"North."

Wei En's mental perception covered the past and found that the two people in the war department were Hector and Chirrut.

Fighting them were...Collins and Erno?

However, at this time, Collins was no longer dressed in a refined and serious butler's attire, but instead wore a linen short coat commonly worn by sailors.

Several tentacles behind him smashed at Hector and the others crazily. Each blow was like a cannonball, shattering the surrounding buildings.

The mucus on those tentacles was continuously thrown out with his attacks, corroding any object contaminated.

Erno, who was next to him, was still waving his long knife, cooperating with Collins' attack.

Hector and the others were left to passively defend themselves, not daring to be touched by those slimes.

"Santiago, if you don't come, we will really die!!"

"Hector is the corrupt blood of Vazquez. They are the core members of the Vazquez family!"

Both of them were holding a gun in one hand and a shield in the other hand, and they were doing tactical coordination back to back.

"Damn it, Erno, we're going to be in big trouble if we don't kill them."

"Oakley, Des, Thomas." (Aurora flashes.)

Erno's face turned cold, his body turned into an afterimage, his long knife cut across, and instantly appeared behind Hector and the other two.

Clang.

The shield in Chirrut's hand was split into two and fell to the ground along with his arm.

"puff……"

"Chirrut, potion No. 4!" Hector was anxious, Santiago, come quickly, or you will really be dead if you don't come!

Without waiting for him to remind him, Chirrut had already taken out the healing potion and poured it into his mouth, restoring some vitality to his pale and bloodless face.

"Go on!" Collins said with a ferocious smile.

"Yenni..."

puff.

Just as Erno was about to turn his body and strike again, he heard a subtle sound of breaking through the air...

[You hit Erno Vazquez with a sniper rifle, triggering the burst rune and triggering the death characteristic - disease, which means the death progress is 32/30. Rewards: Survival points +3, marksmanship +1. 】

[Elno Vazquez triggers the death characteristic-death immediately, dead. Evaluation: After testing, the blow is comparable to a minister-level all-out blow with an origin of 50. Well... it's very strong. Special rewards: Survival points +5, marksmanship +2, spiritual level +1, toughness level +1. 】

"Elno?!"

Collins couldn't believe his eyes as he watched Erno, who was covered in blood, turn into a swollen corpse full of pus before his eyes.

"Who is it? Come out!"

puff.

His answer was another bullet!

[You hit Collins Vazquez with a sniper rifle...instant death progress 42/30. Rewards: Survival points +3, marksmanship +1. 】

[Collins Vazquez triggers the death characteristic - instant death, dead... Special rewards: survival points +5, marksmanship +2, spiritual level +1, toughness level +1. 】

"Humph, ho, ho..."

Plop.

Collins knelt down on the ground. Compared with Erno's miserable state, he looked much better, but his body gradually withered and his hair turned gray, like the shriveled appearance caused by old age...

"Forehead,"

Hector and Chirrut looked at each other, are they going to die?

"One of our own?"

"Obviously...it's that kid?"

"It's very similar to the one when I was here last time..."

Wei En put away his sniper rifle, took Tina's hand, and appeared in front of the two of them, "You two, are you okay?"

"No, it's okay... Ah no, no, thank you for taking the initiative." Hector nodded and shook his head again, looking at him as if he were looking at a god.

"It's okay,"

[When you discover the origin that can be swallowed, should you use the soul-eating spell? 】

Wei En turned his head and looked at the two corpses on the ground. Was it comparable to a 50-origin minister-level full blow... It was really a powerful attack.

It seems that 50 origin is the level for entering the ministerial level for the first time?

He was not very clear about this. He only remembered that in the nightmare world, captain level was 20-50, and those above 50 were minister level.

Just ask Franta later.

"Hector, who? Who attacked you?"

Not long after, Santiago arrived and looked around sternly.

"Ground, ground."

Only then did Santiago notice Collins and Erno lying in a pool of blood, "Dead? Who did it?"

"He," Chirrut grabbed a broken arm and pointed at Wei En and said, "I also want to thank Wei...Investigator Wei En. If he hadn't taken action in time, I'm afraid you wouldn't have seen us."

"he?"

Santiago looked at Wayne, then at the corpses on the ground, as well as the injured Chirrut and the others, "Thank you."

Um?

"You're welcome."

Wei En looked at the stiff smile on his dark face and secretly felt funny.

Is this considered a match between gold and stone?

Iron trees also bloom sometimes, it just depends on whether they are looking in the right direction.

"How did you fight with them?"

Santiago's face felt a little hot. He still remembered that when he saw Wayne for the first time, he gave him a mental shock... which was a bit embarrassing.

Hector pointed to the other side, "We were just checking for parasites. We saw them crawling out of the ground in the alley over there, so we went over to inquire about them, and the result..."

"underground?"

"Yes," Chirrut pointed the broken arm and waited for the wound to heal. "In addition, their identities have just been confirmed. They are members of the Vazquez family and have awakened the extraordinary bloodline of Corruption."

"Vasquez? Didn't you hear that they have disappeared? Why did they appear in Custer?"

"We don't know either..."

Santiago's face gradually became serious, "Let's report to Minister Abbott after we return from the mission."

"good."

"Um," Wei En said at this time, "Have you encountered any parasites during your investigation for so long?"

"We don't have one here," Hector replied.

"There isn't one on that street to the south either." Santiago hesitated and asked, "There isn't one there either?"

Wayne shook his head, "I don't have them there either. I suspect there are no parasites in Basil's neighborhood. If we continue to check, we may not be able to find many."

"oh?"

Santiago and Hector looked at each other with thoughtful expressions.

"Then captain, do we want to continue?"

Santiago thought for a long time and made a decision: "The first half of Basil Block has the most people, and we haven't even found it here. The possibility of parasites appearing in the back is even smaller."

"We turned around and went to support the nearby Natoli neighborhood, just in time to meet Karges and the others in the middle."

Hector nodded, "Agree."

"Over there, don't you want to take a look?" Chirrut pointed to the alley over there, "There should be problems for these Vazquez people coming out from there, right?"

"Forget it," Santiago shook his head, "No matter what their purpose is, the most important thing right now is to clean up those parasites."

"Kilut, don't worry, we'll come back here after we beat those bastards from the Abyss Sect away."

Hector put his arm around his shoulders and smiled: "Anyone who dares to attack our war headquarters will let their Vazquez family disappear completely."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense and let's go."

"Captain Santiago,"

Wei En was not interested in investigating the secret passage. Instead, he pointed at the two corpses on the ground and asked, "Can they be handed over to me?"

Santiago nodded and said: "You killed this person, and the body should be left to you for disposal."

"Um,"

Wei En was just about to let the ghosts and the others cast a soul-devouring spell, but when he caught a glimpse of the money bag on Collins's waist, he stepped forward and touched it by mistake.

Ding dong dong dong…

The sound was crisp, loud and echoed clearly - it was confirmed to be the sound of a gold pound!

This person has been the butler of the Seres family for decades, so he should have a lot on his hands...

"???"

Damn, so many gold pounds?

Wei En opened the money bag and took a look, and couldn't help but take a breath. Is this a mobile vault?

One, two... forty-five, there were 45 five-gold-pound banknotes alone, plus scattered gold coins - 233 gold pounds!

Got rich.

"The storm is rising, I seem to see a lot of portraits of the old king." Hector looked at the golden color, his eyes widened.

Chirrut also swallowed his saliva, "You, you read that right, I, I regret it a little."

According to the distribution principle during the mission, everyone who participates in the kill will receive 10% of the loot.

"Promise!" Santiago slapped them. "If you want money, quickly improve your strength. If you can't even defeat the people in the investigation department, I think you should quit the department as soon as possible."

Although he was very jealous when he saw those gold pounds...

"..."

Wei En didn't pay attention to their looks or words. Fortunately, he touched the body, otherwise the gold pounds would have been eaten by the ghosts and the others.

Then he reached out to Erno next to him.

Gold pounds, shillings... letters.

Um? letter?

Let's wait until it's empty.

Wei En put the things in his hand, together with Erno's long knife, into the space ring. After making sure that nothing was missing, he signaled to the ghost that they could start.

"Adagua." (The Devouring Spell.)

[You use the Devouring Spell to devour the origin of Collins Vazquez, and your origin is improved. Special reward: Origin +0.01. 】

[You use the soul-eating spell... Special reward: Origin +0.01. 】

Tsk, is it only 0.01?

Next time you encounter a ghost wizard, you must try the soul-devouring spell to see if the original improvement after devouring it is the same as that of Ognyan.

If so, then the ghost meditation method is very suspicious!

Santiago next to him saw this scene with a thoughtful expression on his face, as if he had seen such a weird spell that could kill people somewhere.

The wizard of the ghost... is a occult sect?

Unexpectedly, this kid is still a member of the Ghost School. Lacey is very lucky.

"Captain, him," Hector pointed at Wei En.

"Well, that should be the case." Santiago nodded and said without saying anything more, "Let's go to the Natoli neighborhood."

"good."

Wei En pulled Tina to follow him, and glanced at the street next to him from the corner of his eye. Is it Vazquez again?

[You are targeted by Nette Vazquez’s murderous intent. Evaluation: Female, beautiful, good figure, very murderous...Reward: +5 survival points. 】

good body shape?

When did the panel become interested in this aspect?

After they all left, a slender figure walked out of the deep alley, glaring at the backs of Wei En and the others with hatred.

"Wei En... next time we meet, I will make you pay the price!"

In the tavern not far across from her, Claire crossed her two white legs, swayed the wine glass in her hand, and looked at this scene charmingly.

His strength has improved again, no wonder he can escape from Poulsen.

really not bad,

It seems that our Eternal Life Society is about to welcome another powerful member...

Ghost, what's the deal with that kind of rubbish school of thought!

…

…

"I'm sorry, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you with what I promised you before."

Still in the bell tower of Krims Cathedral, Alais was holding a small barrel and drinking barley beer.

Seeing this, Andrews felt inexplicably sad, "It seems you have made a decision. Is it worth it?"

"It doesn't matter whether it's worth it or not. The world will be the same without everyone. Just like this church, without you, Archbishop Andrews, will still stand in the city of Custer."

"Not always……"

Alais raised the barrel and said with a smile: "Now that it's time, don't be so embarrassed, Andrews."

"cheers!"

The two of them seemed to be back when they were young again, drinking heavily and swaying their youth wantonly under the sunset.

"Ales, I never understand why you are so prejudiced against us, Dawn?"

"Prejudice?" Alais chewed the word, his eyes full of disdain: "Is this how you understand it?"

"Even though it happened a long time ago, you still think it was us, Li Ming, who did it..."

"Andrews, you don't want me to leave the final battle to you, right?"

A cold voice sounded, like ice that never melts all year round, biting to the bone.

"Sorry," Andrews sighed, "I just don't want you to end your life like this, not to mention that Custer City State still needs you."

"Doesn't this fulfill your wish?"

Alais sneered, "For so many years, the Parliament has been stuck in recruiting personnel for the Secret Service Department, and the Noble Committee has reduced our funds, and you, Dawn..."

"You are inciting the residents of the city-state to become hostile to the Secret Assistant, aren't you?"

"That's because you are too tough. You must know that when your teacher was here, everyone supported him, but when you come here, they ignore each other, except for the consul."

"My teacher is willing to bow his head, but I'm not willing to, that's all."

Alais looked at him indifferently and put the wine barrel in his hand aside. "After I know that the taboo is out of control and it was all deliberately caused by you bastards, I no longer have any illusions about you."

"..."

After hearing his words, Andrews closed his eyes in pain and said bitterly: "It was an accident. No one wanted it to happen, just like..."

"That's enough!" Alais shouted, "I'm not here to hear your explanation."

"I just don't want to..."

Zhila!

Dazzling silvery white cuts through the sky, and surging wind pours into the bell tower.

Dang, Dang Dang...

In this way the night bells of Klims Cathedral are rung.

Andrews sighed and said nothing more.

"The red moon is coming, Andrews."

Alais's entire body seemed to turn into lightning, flashing with dazzling silver-white electric light. His short gray hair gradually lengthened under the light, and a tiny spark connected to the red night sky.

Boom!

A thick layer of dark clouds suddenly pulled over Custer, and the flashing lightning in the clouds was faintly visible.

Under these gloomy clouds, a red moon appeared, seeming to embellish the dark clouds, revealing a strange light.

Andrews pursed his lips, bowed slightly, performed a rare dawn salute, and said lowly and slowly: "I will witness!"

I will witness greatness, witness legend, witness time...

When you are a teenager, despair and fear cannot defeat you.

When you are young, blood and fighting spirit surround you.

In his prime, he took on a mortal body and had the spirit of a god of war.

Until now - the entire West Coast resounds with your name!

I will witness your greatness, forge your legendary name, and praise your time with the glory of the dawn - Ales Coulibaly!

Alais's eyes were complicated and he did not look at his old friend beside him, "Andrews Herzog, goodbye."

Before he finished speaking, his body had turned into a shining line of lightning, extending from the bell tower of Krimos Cathedral to the Laos neighborhood.

The dazzling electric light instantly illuminated the entire Custer city-state, and even the red moon in the night sky was slightly eclipsed. It was like a thunder god's sword, slamming into the cursed land!

Boom, boom, boom! !

After a long time, the electric light slowly dissipated...

Sorry, that’s it for today, I broke my promise.

I'm extremely sorry. I will make up for what I owe tomorrow. There are some gaps.
