"Ugh...my head hurts!"
Yirui woke up and found herself lying on a big soft bed.
Her head was a little dizzy, and all she saw were some ambiguous lights and a figure standing by the window, gazing into the distance.
"This... seems to be a high-end love hotel?"
'Why am I here?'
Fortunately, Yirui was a mysterious person. She did not scream like a girl, but just looked around and herself quickly.
I was relieved to find that my clothes were still intact.
Then she recalled it again.
She thought of the mysterious gathering, and her mind began to find ideas, connecting what had happened one by one.
'I saw the gentleman who saved me, and then I was attacked by a ghoul?'
"No, no... Glutton has the ability to create hallucinations. Maybe everything I saw was just an illusion... My current situation is still very dangerous..."
“You’re awake!”
Fang Xian turned around and looked at Yi Rui: "It's good that you woke up. The sheriff should come to check later. Is there any problem with your identity?"
“No…no!”
Yi Rui pulled the quilt to cover her chest and said hesitantly: "Thank you for saving me again, sir! I am Yi Rui from the Negus family, and I will repay you."
Now, she was probably sure that this was not an illusion.
"My name is Laye Raphael!"
Fang Xian unceremoniously used the fake identity he had just obtained: "Saving you is just a piece of cake, no need to be polite. But if you really want to thank me, give me the complete inheritance of the 'Warlock Tower', or related clues, and make sure there is a channel to obtain it..."
Yi Rui choked there.
How could a mere apprentice like her have access to such top-level mystical knowledge?
Even her family may not be able to possess it.
But the other party saved her, twice!
Yirui almost cried.
She gritted her teeth, silently held back her tears, and thought carefully: "The 'Warlock's Tower' is mostly in the hands of nobles with a long history. It is indeed easier to obtain in the Narnias Empire than in other places... I roughly know that a few families have this inheritance, but..."
How could an ordinary outsider obtain such top-level mystical knowledge?
Even if you are willing to sign a contract to sell yourself, it depends on whether the other party is willing to accept it.
"Well... I'm planning to go to the Empire of Narnias, and you can be my guide."
Fang Xian clapped his hands.
At this moment, there was a sudden banging at the door: "Sheriff, inspection!"
"Okay, get up and prepare to deal with the sheriff. Remember, you are the 'prey' I captured today. We just met. You've drunk too much..." Fang Xian lowered his voice and went to open the door.
Outside the door, a sheriff looked in. When he saw Yi Rui, a hint of surprise flashed across his face. He then gave Fang Xian an envious look.
…
night.
The night sky in DeLand seems a little hazy tonight.
There is a bright moon , emitting a lavender glow.
In the city center, in the square in front of the police station, rows of sheriffs stood solemnly, with Jax, Red, Taber and other special agents at the front.
At this moment, they were all looking at a middle-aged man in a black uniform right in front of them with admiration and excitement.
This middle-aged man was of sturdy build, with blue eyes and a face as firm as granite. There was also a silver badge on his chest, indicating that he had received an award from the king.
This is a strong man at the [Silver of Order] level and also a senior figure in the special department—Odis Genier!
He looked at the full moon in the sky and muttered to himself, "Purple moonlight, has the 'King's Feast' ceremony finally reached its climax? A 'Glutton' died during the day, can you not endure it anymore?"
Snap!
Bang!
Behind him, there was a square iron cage wrapped in canvas, which seemed to contain a wild beast that was constantly hitting the fence and looked extremely violent.
Audis calmly took off the glove on his right hand.
Under the moonlight, his right hand actually reflected light, with traces of silver metal veins on it, as if it had completely merged with his flesh and blood.
At this moment, with the slight movement of Audis' fingers, the canvas of the iron cage behind him was lifted, revealing the body of one of the "gluttons".
It has completely transformed into a 'ghoul' form, with silver chains around its neck and limbs, and its eyes are red, filled with madness and a desire to attack.
Moreover, its spell-like abilities seemed to be restricted, and even ordinary people could look directly at it.
"'The King's Feast', the Kingdom researchers have analyzed this ritual. This is just a simplified version. At the end, many third-stage 'gluttons' will sense each other's existence and start killing and devouring each other. Only the winner who survives to the end will be qualified to open the Silver Gate..."
Audis continued to move his fingers, opening the steel cage and releasing the Glutton.
Snap!
Snap!
The silver chains that bound the opponent's limbs coiled like snakes, loosening one by one, allowing the "Glutton" to regain his freedom.
“Hehehe!”
It let out a strange cry and was about to rush towards the nearest living person.
"Be quiet!"
At this moment, Audis shouted in dissatisfaction, and the silver collar worn on the neck of the "Glutton" glowed, completely suppressing its actions.
Furthermore, a chain emerged from the air and connected to Audis' right hand.
From a distance, it looked like he was leading a big dog.
"Next... I will completely suppress its intelligence, leaving only its instincts to chase after the high-level ghouls in the city center and surrounding areas!"
Audis gripped the chain.
The Glutton roared and shot out like an arrow.
However, no matter how far it ran, the silver chain was still in Audis' hand, as if there was no limit to its length.
…
Inside the Laurel Hotel.
"Speaking of which ... this 'King's Feast' ceremony is not perfect either. There are many areas that can be exploited..."
After listening to Yi Rui's detailed narration, Fang Xian pondered and said, "Why did the group of ghouls choose this place? After all, the Senbao Kingdom is still one of the three major powers on the continent. They should not have had their brains eaten..."
"Who knows? But... this group of cultists must have been influenced by some existence to do this... It's really too crazy."
Yi Rui smiled bitterly as she sent the sheriff away.
Bang!
Just then, a gunshot was heard nearby.
"The purple moon means the ceremony has reached its climax... and the Special Division has also begun to act." She muttered to herself, not at all surprised to see this scene.
"Well, I'll take advantage of this opportunity. You go to the train station and wait for me tomorrow morning as planned!"
Fang Xian's figure slowly disappeared, blending into the surrounding colors like a chameleon.
He just heard Yi Rui tell him a piece of news that there were important members of the Miller family in this city, and they were the two who had previously presided over the acquisition of the Roland family!
