Chapter 15 Ironclad Merchant Ship

He also possesses the power of a speech spirit... When the madness does not attack, he is in a state of muddle-headed and instinctive action, with a pale expression and dull eyes... This is very similar to the first infected person described by Pierre... Lumian read

The letter sent by Franka gave us a better grasp of the details of the disaster.

The speculations he had made based on the contradictions in Pierre's answers, performance and actions were actually very close to the real situation.

The only difference is that he guessed that the original infected person was a real lunatic who acted on instinct, while the official intelligence provided showed that this was a humanoid sealed object, but it did rely on instinct, whether in a normal state or madness.

When it breaks out, there is no spiritual wisdom.

Of course, Lumian's guess is not necessarily inconsistent with reality. Perhaps it is because the young woman was contaminated in some way or lost control and became a real madman with the instinct to spread madness, so she needed to be sealed.

As for why it is sealed rather than directly removed, Lumian can probably guess the reason: the ability to say whoever dies will die, even with various restrictions, is still coveted, whether it is the Inquisition, the "Machine Heart"

, it is still the eighth game. If there is a way to seal such a dangerous creature, it will definitely be sealed first. Maybe we can rely on her to solve other disasters in the future.

Lumian lowered his eyes and read the content at the end of the letter: "Other information, the person is restricted by confidentiality and cannot provide it.:

"You should probably keep an eye on young women with that kind of image. If you notice them, immediately distance yourself and report them to the authorities."

There is no detailed origin, sealing method, actual performance of telepathic ability, how to treat and eliminate madness, etc. There is no specific seal level and number... Judging from the anomalies in Dadel Town and the description in the previous part, even if it is not "1

"Level seal should also belong to the very special and terrifying type of "Level 2"... Lumian thought about it for a while, then stuffed the letter into the "traveler's bag" without burning it on the spot.

At this time, Lugano was looking behind him in confusion.

After turning on the "spiritual vision", he still found nothing.

Lumian's messenger "The Confessor" Bayinfer has already left.

"Let's go." Lumian sighed, stretched out his hands, and grabbed the shoulders of Ludwig and Lugano respectively.

What he regrets most now is that at least one third of the 400 Firkin fare will be wasted.

Later, Ludwig would have to find several cafes for breakfast - if he couldn't eat enough at one place, he would be found to be abnormal.

The next second, Lugano felt that he had entered the spiritual world he had just seen. He changed his role as a bystander and went deep into those layers of rich color blocks, truly bathing in the bright and clean brilliance of the seven different colors from the absolute heights.

, under the gaze of indescribable faces and indescribable figures, "speeding" towards an unknown destination.

He felt dizzy, but in just ten seconds, he stepped on the ground, and buildings with the main colors of off-white, brown-red, and light yellow appeared around him.

Lumian did not "teleport" too far and chose Foss City, which is affiliated with Dadle Town.

Under the illumination of the morning light, Lumian put on the "Lie" ear clips, took out a woolen coat from the "traveler's bag", changed his appearance and height, and changed his clothes on the spot in a deserted alley.

In less than a minute, he became a different person.

Although this was not the first time he had witnessed it, Lugano was still slightly shocked by this scene: What a magical item and what a powerful ability! 1

Whether it's the silver-white ear clip that allows people to adjust their height and face within a certain range, or the coin bag that can take out various items as if there is no limit to its capacity, they are all things he has never seen before, and only occasionally.

I heard other bounty hunters mention that some official extraordinary people have extraordinary levels of disguise.

Lumian threw the "lie" ear clip to Lugano and said to him without saying anything: "Go get three more sets of false identities and buy a steam train ticket to Gati Port today."

Am I a translator, a guide, or your follower and follower? Lugano cursed while catching the magical silver-white ear clip.

He forced a smile and said: "I have never been to the Foss area, so I don't know who to contact to get a fake identity."

"The principles are common. I believe in your experience." Lumian responded with a smile.

Well, for the sake of paying... Lugano muttered silently and took out a change of clothes from the suitcase.

When he faked his identity at the Trier Northern Railway Station, Lumian had already given him 1,000 Firkin as a fee and told him that he would be responsible for similar expenses in the future.

After the little boy Ludwig put on the "Lie" ear clips, Lugano walked out of the alley with his suitcase.

Lumian immediately activated "Nisse's Face" and changed his image again. He led Ludwig, who was still adjusting his height and appearance, and followed Lugano from a distance.

He wanted to see what this "doctor" would do and what kind of behavior he would have after arriving in a strange place, so as to determine what problems were hidden behind him.

In order to prevent Ludwig from protesting, Lumian pressed the wide-brimmed hat on his head and threw the guy a few long loaves of bread.

Ludwig didn't clamor for hot food, he ate the food very obediently, and let Lumian lead him to follow Lugano.

It was early in the morning and the bars were closed. Lugano went straight to the nearest market, found a "patrol" who was a suspected gang member, used money to clear the way, and knew who to approach to fake his identity.

Throughout the entire process, he behaved no differently than an ordinary bounty hunter.

Lumian was neither disappointed nor happy about this, and calmly followed him to Lugano and bought another steam train before dispelling the "Face of Nisse" and rendezvousing with his companion.

In the room of a luxury hotel near the seaside, Porto Gati, Upper Maritimes.

Lumian stood in front of the large glass window and saw that the blue sky seemed to have been washed by water, contrasting with the clear and pure gem-like ocean below.

The clear and high-pitched calls of seabirds, and the bright figures walking through the white clouds, white beaches and ship masts, let Lumian intuitively feel the cool breeze from the sea even without opening the window.

.

This is one of the main ports where products from the industrial cities on the west coast of the Sea of ​​​​Jiang enter the Misty Sea. It is famous for trade and shipbuilding and is quite prosperous.

Unlike the citizens of Trier who think there is less sunshine in the north, Gati Port has plenty of sunshine all year round and is not cold in autumn. As Ludwig chewed, Lumian admired the sea view outside the window and the port in the distance.

Waiting for Lugano to buy back the ferry ticket to Santa Port, Kingdom of Feneport.

At this moment, the unusually tall "Confessor" Bayinfer, wearing a black clergy robe, walked out of the void again and silently handed a letter to Lumian.

"Thank you." Lumian said habitually.

Then, he took the letter and unfolded it: "The madness in Dadel Town has been controlled. The severely infected townspeople have been eliminated, and the slightly infected have been treated, but the sealed object has not been found."

"According to the intelligence collected at the scene, she returned to normal a few days ago, left Dadel Town, and disappeared without a trace. The subsequent spread of the madness was based on the spontaneous spread of the spiritual ocean that had been severely polluted.

"The townspeople's reluctance to leave Dadel, and their abnormal behavior of not forgetting to tell the passing travelers about their madness should also come from the polluted ocean of souls. Well, according to Anthony's newly learned proper term, it is the ocean of collective subconscious.

This, together with the island of personal consciousness and the spiritual sky, constitute the spiritual world.

The ocean, together with the island of personal consciousness and the spiritual sky, constitute the spiritual world.

"Be careful in the future. I'm afraid you will be attracted by the mysterious disaster caused by the sealed object again."

I didn't catch that sealed object... Lumian felt a slight headache and "tsk".

To be honest, he had nothing to do about it. When he arrived in Del Town, the other party had already left, and the disaster was still continuing and developing.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Lumian took Lugano and Ludwig aboard the merchant ship "Asuka" heading to Santa Port in the Kingdom of Feneport.

They chose the first-class cabin, which is a suite with a master bedroom, a children's room, a servant's room, a living room, a washroom, a dedicated waiter to provide services, and access to the most upscale restaurants and the only cigar room.

, worth 700 Filkins, close to Charlie's annual income when he worked as a hotel waiter.

Lumian cares about money but doesn't care that much. He cares because his past experiences and his sister's teachings have made him instinctively calculate and feel distressed. He doesn't care because he can get money relatively "easily", for example, at night.

Sneaking back to the Breeze Ballroom, I took 30,000 Firkin from the safe in one go, and I only spent a small part of it now.

Moreover, he already has the potion formula, main materials and some auxiliary materials for the next sequence, so he has no motivation to save money for the time being.

Besides, as a loyal reader of the "Adventurer" series, he is very aware that there are many moving humanoid treasures on the sea. If he is really short of money, he is happy to imitate his idol and harvest them.

The "Bird" is the latest steam-powered ship, made entirely of steel. It no longer has sails, only chimneys that spray mist and masts that provide watchtowers.

It is iron-grey overall, with parts painted in alternating colors of red and gold. It has a wide deck and numerous gun positions. Its displacement, number of passengers, speed and sturdiness are far superior to those of classical sail warships. It is different from those of the backward era.

Comparing these guys, they are like adults looking down on children.

Before the incident in Kordu Village, Lumian also thought about traveling on the sea, like the great adventurer Gehrman Sparrow, and used this to seduce his sister, but Aurore postponed this matter until he graduated from college.

In the spacious and bright living room of the first-class cabin, Lumian looked out the window at the blue ocean, wondering where his thoughts had gone.

Woo!

Amidst the sound of the whistle, the chimneys of the "Asuka" sprayed out mist.

This huge iron-clad merchant ship slowly left Gati Port and headed towards the depths of the sea amidst the sounds of various machinery starting to operate.

Coo, coo, coo, the calls of seabirds echoed in the clouds.
