Chapter 339 The nightmare spreads

This question was enough to make the escort suffocate, but Victor answered naturally: "There is a gambling boat called the Kaleidoscope in the Emerald Lake next to Dandelion."

After Ben got this answer, he looked at Victor deeply. His expression was very complicated, but in the end he did not continue to question anything else and let Victor go.

Looking at this small town law enforcer, Victor was also quite curious. He didn't understand how someone could be so caring about their job in such a magical place.

Are you a natural workaholic? Or are you intoxicated with power?

After the counting was completed, the three sheriffs left, leaving only two escorts to guard the slaves, while the rest happily went to the bar to drink.

In that dark room, the only lighting was the two-meter-high iron railing behind the wall.

The restraints on the slaves' ankles were removed, but the ropes on their hands were still there.

Victor stepped on the barrel and could see the scene behind the house.

There is a golden field there, which is even more dazzling under the setting sun, as if the land has been plated with gold.

Victor stood and observed for about half an hour. Until the sun went down, he did not see any farmers busy in the fields.

At this time, someone pushed the semolina cake in through the crack of the door and told them that this was today's dinner.

The slaves swarmed over, picked it up and gnawed on it, regardless of whether it was dirty or not.

Victor was still standing up there watching, but when he was about to come down, he suddenly saw a group of strange people appearing on the outskirts of the wheat field. They appeared at the end of the path, each wearing a black canvas-like robe, wrapped in

All parts of his body were covered, only his wrists were still exposed, and his blue skin was a little conspicuous.

They walked stiffly and entered the fields to start harvesting wheat, carrying the products and loading them onto wooden carts that were being pushed over.

"You start working so late at night?"

Victor felt confused and strange, but before he could take a closer look at the group of weirdos, the slave trader outside the door discovered their behavior.

"Get down here! You sissy!"

Now was not the time to have a conflict with this group of people. Victor still expected them to take him to Turbulent Castle to find Albert, so he endured it for the time being and jumped down from the barrel.



For Victor, his current situation is much worse than he expected when he first got on the train.

Originally, his only purpose in taking on this mission was to eliminate Albert's threat to him, but now, not only Albert, but also the captain of the team, Amanda, also had ulterior motives and intended to harm him.

The throw in the cave was already considered an end to death. Victor just hoped that the woman would die in the pile of bat-winged demons, or she would die in the pile of ghouls coming from behind. Anyway, she would not come out to bring him any more.

Bigger trouble.

For this reason, Victor was already prepared for the possibility of falling out with the Anti-Suppression Department. This time he had to deal with Albert's threat first, and then find an opportunity to escape.

It seems that a few days of hardship are inevitable.

On the other side of the ocean, Abigail, who was also a member of the Taoist gathering and suffered a lot, is now living a happy time.

In the grief of losing her lover and relatives, Abigail finally found spiritual sustenance. She took care of Stephen's mother as her own mother, and the lady also mistook her for the deceased "

son".

They live in a sparsely populated area on the outskirts of Velen and run a flower shop with little business.

In the past, Adela lived alone, with very little expenses. She even had a vegetable plot next door, and she ate and drank very frugally.

But now that Abigail is here and the two of them live together, the expenses will increase.

Adela has Alzheimer's disease and cannot settle this account, but Abigail can.

She realized that she had to do something to at least earn back the living expenses of the two of them.

Therefore, she trimmed the potted plants that Adela carefully cultivated into beautiful gardening, simply packaged them, and took them to the city on a rolling cart for sale.

People are only interested in flowers during specific festivals. In the past, few people would stop to watch them. But because Abigail trimmed and packaged them with her delicate hands, the shape of the potted plants was more special and beautiful, so it attracted some people.

Favored by the middle class.

Although the total daily income is about the same as that of a carriage driver, it is already quite considerable considering her current situation.

And just because Abigail went to the city for several days in a row, she also witnessed with her own eyes the terrible wave coming from the south, gradually attacking this glorious capital.

The familiar team with white armbands suddenly appeared in the streets, making her unprepared and felt a cold feeling rush straight to her forehead.

She saw those people stuck at the intersection, questioning passers-by, shouting nasty words at them, and even getting into fights.

Abigail realized that the situation might develop for the worst, so she hurried home and put her things away first.

"Stephen...Stephen...I feel so uncomfortable..."

In addition to Alzheimer's disease, Adela also suffers from some diseases that occur with age.

She has to take medicine every once in a while, otherwise her body will hurt.

Abigail went over immediately to find medicine for Adela, but found that there was only the last amount left in the bottle.

"My child, thank you, can you take a rest first?" Adela drank some water after swallowing the pills, and immediately felt much better.

"Mom...you have finished all the medicine..." Abigail said worriedly.

"Yes...really? I have to...have to buy some more. Wait a minute, I'll go to the room to get a few pennies."

Seeing that Adela was about to leave, Abigail suddenly remembered the group of white armbands she had seen in the city before. She immediately had a premonition that something was wrong and quickly stopped her.

"I'll buy it for you! Mom, tell me which doctor to go to?"



After getting the address, Abigail changed her clothes and went out, asking Adela to stay at home and wait for her return and not to run around.

She crossed the streets and first went to buy Adela's medicine near Whitechapel, which almost spent all the money she had earned from selling flowers in a few days.

Then, instead of rushing home, she returned to the place where she had seen the white armbands before to see if they were still there.

What happened was beyond her expectation. When she came to the same place again, she found that there was already more than one picket on the street.

They were not only checking passers-by, but also knocking on the doors of the buildings one by one to confirm whether the people inside were local Bain people.

The first man from Nippur was arrested, and he shouted loudly that he wanted to accuse these "robbers", which also attracted the police from Velen.

The confrontation between the police and the pickets was tense, but it did not last long because the pickets had a decree signed by the city hall and Congress.

"It's time to take back our country, everyone! Take back the wealth! Take back the land! Take back the people! Drive out the demons and vampires!"

Following the incitement of the pickets, a window on one of the buildings was smashed. A picket member wearing a white armband was thrown down from the building and was killed directly in front of Abigail.

A large pool of blood appeared.

"There is a seer!"

That was the shout of the pickets, and then a large group of people swarmed up and rushed to the building.
