Chapter 372: Playing cards with ghosts

After talking to Irabes, Lin Yun finally went to eat.

After finishing a meal of roasted lamb chops at Little Owl Bear's, Lin Yun walked towards the cemetery.

If the estimate is correct, it should be on the side of the cathedral, which is the cemetery where Arles comes out.

Lin Yun really didn't care much about Saucier playing cards with the people below. After all, from a certain perspective, this could be regarded as a relationship between the superior and the subordinate.

Of course, the premise is that Saucier doesn't use his position to forcefully suppress others, causing them to lose to him abruptly.

Although, it seems that the rules of the army here do not allow gambling, and Thorhill, as the priest of Erin, should not gamble either.

However, Irabes said that Thorhill's mood seemed a little wrong, but it did need attention.

In this way, Lin Yun quickly arrived at the cemetery near the church, but what made Lin Yun's expression a little strange was that the cemetery seemed a little too lively.

I saw a group of guys who should be ghosts floating around the cemetery, some chatting, drinking, and even gambling.

It's amazing.

Speaking of which, it seems that because Zekarius built the ziggurat, it is easier for ghosts to awaken near here.

So now in Juanze City, in addition to undead creatures such as skeletons, some souls have also awakened.

However, these awakened souls do not have any killing ability. Basically, they have no ability other than scaring people. They do not even have the ability to absorb the life force of the people around them.

Of course, things like paladins and ghost weapons are useful for these effects anyway.

In the final analysis, these ghosts are just like civilians among humans. If they are slashed by a ghost weapon, their souls will basically disappear.

Considering that there are already skeletons anyway, it doesn't matter if there are more ghosts. If they want to come out, they can come out. However, Lin Yun still has to legislate three chapters. The awakened ghosts must be registered, and then they are not allowed to scare people randomly, and they are not allowed to peek, anyway.

You need to abide by the laws of Yuanze City.

Finally, considering the idea of ​​​​making the best use of everything, Lin Yun also asked these ghosts to report any improper behavior, such as spies, or illegal behavior, after reporting it and confirming it.

When you are comfortable, you can enjoy tributes or even take a negative energy bath according to the situation.

For these ghosts, food such as tributes and incense can be eaten, and the most important thing is that negative energy treatment is as comfortable to them as killing a chicken.

Because these ghosts are truly elusive.

So for now, Annevia says ghosts are really useful.

Under the dim light, I saw a group of people and ghosts surrounding a barrel, and Thorhill was inside.

A ghost held a deck of cards and patted the barrel, "Give me two more."

Although there is no doubt that his hand passed through the barrel at once.

"I'll double the bet, give me another one." Thorhill threw out two gold coins, clinking on the barrel.

"What, you dare to double the bet, you little bastard, you are bluffing, I am not scared, I am already dead anyway." The ghost yelled.

"After we open the cards, you will know if I am bluffing." Lin Yun almost didn't recognize Thorhill's voice at this time.

He was quiet and calm when fighting, but now his tone was full of anger, excitement and passion.

The ghost held back for a moment, but then he seemed to have made up his mind, "Okay, you bastard.

I'll follow, give me another one." This makeshift table was full of excitement, passion and tension, as if lightning was about to strike.

The surrounding Devil May Cry Army soldiers and ghosts all became excited.

"Fuck. I exploded." The ghost threw his cards on the bucket angrily. "Okay, let's take a look at the cards in your hand."

"Take a good look and prepare to cry." Saucier smiled happily and played the cards.

"It's a bad hand. I thought you guys who were pretending to be noble couldn't bluff." The ghost looked at the barrel in front of him with a collapsed face, and then stared at Thorhill angrily.

"But I was just bluffing. You were fooled." After saying this, Thorhill put two cards on the ghost's shoulders, like epaulettes, and placed the remaining cards on his head.

Although it is said to be due to physical weakness.

These cards fell down all at once, but at least they had a very good stimulating effect.

"How dare you play tricks on me like this, you.

"The ghost grabbed Thorhill's collar, and Thorhill immediately raised the machete behind his back, as if he had expected this situation to happen.

Although the machete does not have ghostly effects, it is still a magic weapon.

Even as a priest, he can directly enchant a sacred weapon.

At this time, someone saw Lin Yun hiding in the shadows, "Hey, there's someone over there. We were caught."

"The commander is here." A member of the Devil May Cry Army shouted loudly.

"It's over. Let's run away." The soldiers extinguished the candles, the cards were scattered in the soil, and even the ghosts disappeared one by one.

After a while, only the embarrassed Thorhill was left here.

Well, he looks the most honest.

"What are you doing here?" The excitement in his voice has disappeared, with a slightly embarrassed expression, "We didn't do anything bad. Well, maybe we have a hot temper.

But that usually doesn't happen, I swear."

"This is not a place where a normal priest should come." Lin Yun said teasingly with a smile.

"Where is a normal place for a priest to be, staying with the soldiers during breaks from fighting? Here I can supervise them and teach them how to deal with everything they see and do. Yes, I

I think this is the place where a pastor should come." Saucier touched his nose and lowered his head.

"Can you tell me what's going on? I don't think you're just here for a few copper coins, so come and bet."

"This, me.

” Thorhill seemed a little unsure of how to answer.

"You just deliberately provoked that guy." Lin Yun looked at the cards that had fallen to the ground, and then raised his head to look at Thorhill.

"Me? No, you misunderstood. I was.

Thorhill wanted to find a suitable excuse to excuse himself, but he became more and more frustrated and lowered his head. "You are right, I am really embarrassed. I provoked this conflict, and my behavior was completely

This is unacceptable. Please forgive me, Xuelin." She said as if praying.

"You look very entangled. I feel like you are venting." Lin Yun picked up the cards from the ground and placed them on the barrel.

Thorhill was silent for a long time and nodded: "Thank you, everything has become a mess in my mind. This war and the horror it brings.

Our soldiers and what they told me in their confessions, my own responsibilities, and the teachings of the Holy Scriptures.

With so much stuff in my head, it’s easy for me to forget that I have my own needs and desires, thank you for reminding me.”

"So, what happened to the ghost just now?" Lin Yun said curiously.

"Ah, that guy is a scoundrel who likes to gamble, but every time he loses, he will use the ghost's ability to escape directly, but if he wins, he will directly take other people's money, because gambling is inherently

It cannot be fully disclosed, and soldiers cannot gamble, so they can only discuss it with me." Saucier sighed and then said.

To put it simply, it is a gray area within a gray area.

It's outrageous for ghosts to exist and gamble money.

"But to be honest, I will miss the feeling of playing cards. When the stakes are very high and you have almost no chance of winning, the excitement is really addictive. Even though the stakes are not lives, just a handful of coins.

So I thought that on the one hand, I could satisfy my own venting, and on the other hand, I wanted to seek justice for those soldiers." Saucier said with a wry smile.

"However, since you know, Commander, there is no need to say more. Then I will think of a way to find a way to vent my anger that is not so destructive. Maybe I can find Irabeth and let her and I

Playing chess. I don’t know what will happen if I do this.” Saucier smiled. “Thank you for helping me clear my mind. Good night.”

After saying that, he ran away quickly, seemingly afraid that Lin Yun would be blamed.

This made Lin Yun feel a bit dumbfounded.
