Mentioning the Shadow Man who can swallow souls and turn into human beings, Fang Yu thought of another thing. The grandfather of Lich Tang De, the wanderer they met in Idos, was not the same kind of existence.
? I just don’t know what the real face of the Wanderer is. Is it a mortal who fell into darkness, or a monster that turned into a human?
The owner of the hotel once described the shadow people's appearance as 'like intertwining lights and shadows, and changing flames'. Rumors in the community say that they are 'unpredictable in form, possess high intelligence, and can communicate with a sharp voice.
', It's a pity that there are no related pictures and videos.
"By the way," Fang Plover suddenly asked, interrupting everyone's discussion about the Crow's Claw Temple: "What is the 'redeemed'?"
"Did that woman say that?" Luo Hao shook his head, "I searched with related keywords, but there are no clues."
"No clues?" Fang Yu was a little surprised. There will be some relatively unconventional information in the community. The number of entries for this type of information is very small, or there is a lot of false information. However, it is quite rare that no such information can be found at all.
Unless, this term is made up by the other party.
"I have looked up synonyms, homophones, or words with similar meanings. The most similar one is a church armed force called the 'Redemption Army', but this organization only operates in Oshur and obviously has nothing to do with it here." Luo
Hao replied.
Fang Yu nodded to express his understanding. He was about to speak when suddenly a shadow blocked the door of the hotel, blocking the light coming from that direction.
There was a sudden silence in the hall, and people silently turned their heads to look in that direction, only to find that blocking the door was a group of gray knights wearing black and white robes.
"Checking fugitives."
The leading knight said in a hoarse voice, with a strange metal-penetrating texture in his voice. I don't know if it was because of the helmet mask.
There is a bunch of long gray feathers on the top of his helmet than the others, and he wears half a gray feather cloak on his right shoulder. The armor on his body is also more exquisite. The magic furnace behind him is covered with cloth, and the model cannot be seen. The curtains
Embroidered with a red-eyed raven.
The knights filed in, and the innkeeper froze behind the counter, not daring to move. "Crow Knight." Luo Haobi looked at the pictures on the community, then touched Fang Plover with his elbow and pointed in that direction.
Fang Lu looked at the leading knight and nodded clearly.
The Gray Knights are divided into three levels: upper, middle and lower levels, and the Crow Knight is the commanding class among them.
The knights entered the hall, and under their orders, the guests left their seats one by one. The knights looked at everyone one by one. They were more strict with the natives, but were slightly gentler with the chosen ones. The chosen ones did not even have to leave themselves.
For seats, you only need to cooperate with the inspection.
Under such circumstances, the selectors sized up the situation and did not choose to take action. The knights screened over one by one and soon came to the table of the Seven Seas Brigade.
Ai Xiaoxiao was so nervous that she straightened her body and looked at these people uneasily, not even daring to take a breath.
But the others were old gods, and they may have been used to this situation for a long time. Even Jita didn't even look at these people, she just held a history book and read it.
The crow knight held his sword with one hand and walked over. The metal feet fell to the ground and made a clicking sound, which sounded a little scary in the quiet hall.
"Everyone, please cooperate with our inspection." The knights surrounded them and looked at everyone. But it was still the Crow Knight who spoke, and his voice still had the quality of piercing metal, as if it was buzzing in the eardrums.
Ring, "Put down what you are doing."
"We have already done so." Luo Hao replied.
Fang Plover turned around at this time and looked at the other party. The crow knight wore a heavy helmet and had an invisible face. Only a pair of eyes were exposed. They were a pair of slightly burnt-yellow eyes, and the eyelids were in this cold weather.
The weather was so dry that it became shelled.
Looking at these eyes, he suddenly felt depressed and uneasy. At this moment, the crow knight suddenly stared at them and asked: "Have I seen you somewhere?"
"Indeed," Fang Plover replied, "we were in the square earlier."
"Have you participated in previous trials?" Crow Knight asked in a hoarse voice.
"Is there anyone here who hasn't participated?"
"But I don't know you," Crow Knight replied, "Are you strangers?"
Fang Yu nodded: "Indeed, we just arrived here not long ago."
The crow knight's scorched eyes turned to Sylvide aside, with a greedy look in his eyes, lingering on the latter for a long time. Fang Yu frowned when he saw this guy suddenly stretched out his hand, trying to tease her.
Lift the veil of the ship stewardess.
At this time, a ray of silver light flew by, and the Crow Knight immediately retracted his hand alertly, looking at the construct that was "buzzing" flying in front of him. The "Silver Bee" was surrounding him in a threatening manner, as if as long as
If he takes another step forward, it will attack without hesitation
The movement here attracted the attention of others.
"Combat Craftsman." Someone whispered.
"We are the Chosen Ones," Fang Plover gently put down his control gloves, glanced at the other party, and replied.
The Crow Knight was startled for a moment, then nodded, and straightened up again, as if nothing had happened before. "I wish you all a happy meal, and may the storm be with you." His eyes fell on the chest of Miss Knight not far away.
On the holy emblem, he paused and said, "Sisters."
Mei glanced at them.
"I don't like these guys, they make me feel bad..."
Seeing the last two knights walking out of the hall, Parker couldn't help but murmured.
"It's as if someone feels good about them, they're a bunch of perverts," Tianlan snorted, "If I were brother Ed, I would teach them a lesson."
"Tianlan, Brother Ed is also here for us." Jita put down the history book in her hand and explained.
"You don't need to explain, Jita, you are serious," Tianlan said angrily: "Of course I know, so isn't it because I am not brother Ed?"
This realistic statement left everyone speechless for a while.
The atmosphere calmed down, and suddenly there was a gurgling sound on the table. Everyone looked back and realized that it was Ai Xiaoxiao who was so frightened that her upper and lower teeth were chattering. Seeing everyone watching, her face turned red involuntarily, but she couldn't control it.
I couldn't help but stammered: "Cousin, I, I, I...isn't it embarrassing?"
Sylvide smiled, shook her head and said: "At least you didn't show it before. Compared with most of us, you are already quite brave."
Everyone couldn't help but think of the time when they first entered this world.
Indeed, compared to this big-hearted little girl, some of them are worse than others.
Only Fang Plover, the first time he participated in an adventure was the huge Changxia War.
Later, in the battle of the Elven Ruins, we faced the Silver Forest Spear Brigade, half of the Jefrit Redcoats, giant constructs, the Dead Zone, and the top masters from the second world. It was truly colorful.
, and actually allowed him to survive the chaotic situation.
There are probably only a handful of newcomers who have had such an experience.
However, Fang Yu had calmed down now and was not proud of such a trivial matter. He looked at the noble lady on the side and only asked: "Are you okay?"
"It doesn't matter," Sylvide chuckled and shook her head, but replied a little playfully: "But if you are with me, I'm afraid you will encounter a lot of things like this in the future."
Fang Plover was startled, and then he couldn't help but became speechless.
I don’t know whether I should call my ship officer lady free and easy, or overconfident?
But was the crow knight just greedy for Sylvester's appearance? He always felt that there was an inhuman color in his eyes.
Thinking of this, Fang Yu looked at the crowd and pressed his hands to indicate that he had something to say. Everyone in the Seven Seas Brigade sitting around the table fell silent when they saw that their leader wanted to speak.
Fang Yu then said: "Everyone, let's go back to the topic. The situation in this area seems a bit unusual. Although they may not have anything to do with us, the bad luck is coming. Now that Talun's chaos has become apparent, we must finally
It's best to be prepared and take precautions. The situations just mentioned are a bit concerning. Whether it is the Shadow Man or the Crow's Claw Temple, although the latter is an enemy of the Dragon Worship Cult, they may not be credible and their origins are suspicious."
"Brother Ed, what are you going to do?" Tian Lan asked.
"Gather intelligence," Fang Pliance replied: "We will stay here for two days and return when the wind and snow subsides. We will try to collect relevant information before doing so. However, we'd better not get involved in related matters before investigating everything.
among.”
"What about purchasing supplies?" Alyssa asked.
"The number of people purchasing supplies can be reduced, and it can be left to Sylvide and Tianlan. Miss Siesta, please look after them, and the remaining people will go out in pairs to find out the news."
Siesta glanced at him.
"Including me?" Ai Xiaoxiao asked curiously.
Fang Yu nodded and said to Miss Nightingale: "Alyssa, take Xiaoxiao with you. As for Parker, go with the box. Remember not to cause trouble, Luo Yu." He then looked at Luo Yu aside, "You and I
One group." Luo Yu was slightly startled, and then nodded.
"Great!" Ai Xiaoxiao said, "Shall I go with Miss Alyssa?"
"Be honest," Alyssa patted her forehead, "remember not to hold me back."
Ai Xiaoxiao just nodded.
Parker muttered under his breath that he never caused trouble.
"What about me, Mr. Ed?" At this time, May put down the tableware, dipped her fingertips in her handkerchief, and raised her head and asked.
"Miss Mei, you have extraordinary strength, so you can make your own decision." Fang Yu thought for a moment and replied.
"Then can I go with you and Mr. Luo Yu?"
Fang Yu was startled for a moment, then nodded. He planned to go to the forest to investigate the whereabouts of the shadow man. It would be a good option to have a powerful helper like Miss Knight along with him.
Jita looked here and couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. Did Brother Ed forget her?
"Jita," Fang Yu then looked at her, "You and Luo Hao are a team. You stay in the hotel to analyze intelligence and pay attention to the information in the community. I will ask Miss Tata to stay and help you. Luo Hao is good at it.
Organizing information on the community, you are a naturalist and can give full play to your expertise."
"But can I help Miss Tata?" Jita looked nervously at Miss Fairy sitting on the table.
Tata quietly put down the silver tea cup in her hand, raised her head, and looked at her with a dreamy look, "Miss Jita, don't worry, we each have our own strengths."
At this moment, a man sitting at another table not far away looked at this scene and nodded. Fang Yu ordered everyone one by one, looking very orderly. In his opinion, he looked like a somewhat qualified leader.
."Not satisfactory." But a certain lady beside him said lightly.
The man turned around funny, "Why do you only say this sentence?"
"That's true," the latter replied: "Xiaoyu should have an excellent team, and being excellent alone is not enough."
"But I think it's pretty good."
"You have to watch it to find out whether you are wrong or not."
"You are too strict."
"It's better to be strict than to judge the wrong person."
The man shook his head and sighed softly.
…
Fang Piao assigned everyone's work, but also gave him a half-day off first, giving everyone half a day to move around freely.
They arrived here all the way from Galeit. They spent most of the journey in the wilderness in extremely harsh weather, sleeping in the open air. Not only was everyone exhausted, but most of them were exhausted.
As soon as they entered the town, they found a place to stay. They originally planned to take a good rest, take a nice hot bath to warm themselves up, and then eat something good to treat themselves. But they didn't expect to encounter something as soon as they arrived in Gray Owl Town.
I'm busy with so many things, and I still haven't had time to do it until now.
Moreover, there is a shortage of supplies in the town, and the big meal that was originally expected has turned out to be unpalatable food. It seems that a hot bath cannot be expected, but in any case, rest is a basic need. Even if you purchase supplies, you have to wait for your mental recovery.
Let’s talk about it later.
Fang Yu distributed the keys and told everyone that they could move around freely during this period, but they must return and report before eight o'clock in the evening. At the same time, he gave many instructions to keep the boxes in check for the Papalar people and never cause trouble.
After experiencing the previous encounters, Fang Plover did not trust the security of this place. The shadow person didn’t care, but there must be dragon worshipers making trouble behind the scenes. This has almost become an iron rule. A place that looks peaceful and peaceful on the surface, is hidden behind the scenes.
It's not necessarily that there aren't some conspiracy plotted by the cultists, not to mention the chaos in the north, where evil spirits are rampant?
The Crow's Claw Temple seems untrustworthy. Although it may not necessarily have anything to do with the Dark Believers, there may not be any other conspiracy. At least he will not get involved easily until he understands the situation.
In the midst of trouble.
There is no doubt that Fang Plover was prescient.
When most people are exhausted and need a good rest, there is always a group of people who seem to have endless energy. The Papalar people are undoubtedly the best among them, and they even have the highest racial talent.
Having such a talent of not getting tired easily is completely different from the human talent of having stronger learning ability.
This is a real racial gift, not what anyone claims, but it also has a negative side, which is a voracious appetite, from which even Miss May is not exempt. The Papalars in Sanshak spend a day
Eat five meals, this is not a rumor.
All in all, after eating and drinking, the Papalars couldn't help but ran out in a hurry, taking with them a certain emotionless robot who was somehow clearly a human being, but who also seemed to never know how tired he was.
Mentor boy.
The two of them said they were going out to 'gather information', but in reality they were just shopping and doing no good things.
St. Olinus Square
Parker was bending down to pick up a stone, throwing it away, and grumbled: "I think he has some prejudice against the Papalar people. As we all know, the Papalar people are a model of law-abiding.
In Sangshak, every Papalar person is polite and courteous, close to their neighbors, and will never cause trouble easily. This is a naked slander and stereotype. Even if I occasionally eat something secretly and help you keep some small items
, but this is definitely not my intention, it is just an instinct. You know that I am a believer in the God of Prodigality, do you understand?"
The wizard boy, who covered himself tightly with a pointed wizard hat and a standing coat collar, with only one eye exposed, looked away from the thrush on the shoulder of the statue in the square and nodded slowly.
"I knew you would understand."
Parker said happily.
He patted the snowflakes on his hands and said, "Wait for me here. I'll go do something and I'll be back soon."
Box looked at this sneaky guy, thought for a moment, and nodded.
"Ha," Parker exclaimed, "I knew you were my best buddy!"
"But the leader asked us not to cause trouble."
"Don't worry, I never cause trouble," said the Papalar man, slapping his chest loudly, "I'm just doing what a Papalar man should do... By the way, do you still have money?
"
Box nodded, took out a few silver coins from the left pocket, and then took out a few silver coins from the right bag, and handed them over one by one. Most of the properties of the Seven Seas Brigade are public, but everyone has their own.
You can still receive a 'salary' every month.
"Good brother," Parker said happily, "I'll treat you to a snack later."
He stuffed the money into his pocket with his short hands, patted his belly, and walked grandly to the bakery not far away.
Xiang Xiang was already used to this kind of situation, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with it. All of his equipment was either imported or made by Fang Plover, and he usually didn't need the money.
He just looked away a little boredly.
There are two squares in Gray Owl Town. They have already visited the other square before, which is the center of the town. This square is more like an unexpected discovery after they accidentally walked through a gloomy alley.
Compared to the prosperous areas of this town, this place is more like a scene from an old photo. On one side are long narrow alleys and dark stone walls, and on the other side are gray
The towering and dilapidated temples and cold stone statues in the square have a cold and gloomy style.
This may be related to the long history of Gray Owl Town. The low stone walls surrounding the town were built centuries ago. They cross a river that passes through the city to shape the overall view of this historically outstanding town.
Although it is only a small place, it was actually established earlier than Gula Port. Several ancient streets run through the city and are dotted with alleys. It may seem deserted in winter, but in fact there are still tens of thousands of people living here today.
A region.
Xiang looked at the road sign hanging at the entrance of the square, which had the name of the square written in local characters. He just felt that the name was familiar, but he did not know that Orinus was a god of Mirela.
The Saint, fell in the battle of Isolin.
While he was dazed, suddenly a bakery not far away opened the door, and a short figure walked out.
The short and thin figure came face to face with him and suddenly stood there blankly.
The box was slightly startled, and he stared at the little girl holding a basket of black bread in surprise, staring blankly at him.
