Chapter 349: Captain Ghost (Part I)

W City, mid-afternoon.

With the experience of the town, Gu Yun and the others went straight to the clothing store after coming to the most prestigious commercial center of the kingdom, first accompanying Vera to buy a heavy robe, the latter wrapped himself tightly, and some of the materials necessary for casting spells were left on the carriage.

Perhaps because of the death of Archbishop Kremangel, witchers patrolling the streets were ubiquitous, and many guards spontaneously joined the patrol.

W City is more severe than Marianne imagined, and there is still an endless stream of merchants, but many merchants have been stopped by the witchers to search their luggage, and they have seen several merchants who have been found suspicious items directly taken away by the witchers.

In fact, W City was also one of the most frequented cities by witches, except for the weak power of the royal power and the Holy See in W City, they were able to buy all kinds of scarce spell casting materials here, and after the witches found and hunted down, many merchants who specialized in selling spell casting materials were also persecuted to varying degrees.

However, to Marianne's surprise, under this tense atmosphere, Gu Yun actually wore his strange costume and walked swaggering down the street, and his walking posture and demeanor looked particularly arrogant from a distance.

It was as if he was telling the patrolling witcher, "Don't check on me, or I'll look down on you."

She thought that she was bold enough to dare to enter and leave the city where the Holy See headquarters was located alone, but after seeing Gu Yun, Marianne understood what it meant to be someone outside the human world.

She felt that if she was a witcher or a guard in the city, and saw someone walking so arrogantly, she didn't have to come forward to ask for a reason, but directly tortured the other party.

But what surprised Marianne and Vera even more was that not only did no one stop Gu Yun from the demon hunters and guards along the way, but many people smiled and nodded to them from afar.

Gu Yun's arrival naturally caused many guards to whisper:

"Don't be stunned, work hard, didn't you see someone sent from above to inspect?"

Marianne saw an old guard slap the young guard on the back of the head.

"Someone from above? Where is it? ”

"Over there, didn't you see that the captain was out in person?"

"But the captain is not Bao ......"

"You know the, I mean the captains at the higher levels, maybe even the emissaries sent by the king!"

The old guard was justified - would an ordinary person dare to dress like this at such a juncture, and walk on the street with such an arrogant attitude?

Archbishop Kremanger is dead, and anyone with a discerning eye knows that he has been at odds with the royal power all these years, and sending people to inspect at this time has already explained the king's intentions to a certain extent.

"You're still young, don't ask so many questions about what you don't have, look at it and study hard."

The above is the whole process of the old guard deducing that the royal power faction is about to suppress the clerical faction through Gu Yun, who is particularly arrogant when he walks.

Does this sound like words!

Marianne can't stand it anymore as an enemy - she's the famous Witch of Twilight, synonymous with this dark age, don't you really want to investigate us?

Coincidentally, she and the old guard looked at each other.

The old guard was stunned for a moment, then stood still in front of Marianne and gave a standard knightly salute.

"Gu Yun ......"

It was the first time Marianne had received approval from an enemy, which made her mind a little confused, "Honestly, do you know how to use demagogic spells?" ”

While witches can charm people through spells, their spells can only be applied to a few people, and they can't envelop an entire city.

"No, it won't."

"Then why do these people look at you like that?"

"How do I know?"

In fact, Gu Yun himself was full of questions, he thought that his eyes were direct and clear enough-even if you came to check on me, if you were not satisfied, you would fight.

As a result, the people who received his eyes responded to him in a friendly manner.

"The people here...... A little off. ”

Gu Yun whispered.

"It's probably not right with you."

Vera whispered too.

Usually no one will go around provoking others with their eyes when they sneak in, right?

Due to Gu Yun's provocations, they didn't get into unnecessary trouble along the way, and although Marianne and Vera insisted that Gu Yun's way of keeping them from getting into trouble was very strange, they still managed to get to the stolen museum as mentioned in the newspaper.

The location of the museum is very prominent, almost in the very center of W City.

Marianne has been to the city more than once, so she is no stranger to the museum's landmark.

"The leaders of W City wanted to attract more people by building a museum, but it didn't work very well."

Before entering the museum, Marianne casually mentioned it.

The other party has a good wish, hoping to bring spiritual sustenance to the people of W City through the thick history in the museum.

However, he ignores that in this era, the vast majority of ordinary people are too busy making money to support their families, and they don't have time to think about spiritual sustenance, so it is not surprising that museums are neglected.

After entering the door, there was only an old man sitting at the entrance of the museum, and when he saw Gu Yun and the three of them coming in, the old man took off his glasses and looked at a few people, and without waiting for them to speak, he took the initiative to say, "Want to know about the mask?" ”

"Hmm."

Gu Yun nodded.

The old man showed a surprised expression, he fiddled with the bookmark and put the thick one aside, "The exhibits here can only attract people's attention when they are stolen...... Come with me. ”

Hunched over, he walked slowly and leisurely in front.

In the past, no one would have visited the area once a week, but after the report of the theft of the mask was published, the guards and reporters came to the door one after another, asking many questions about the masks, and many reporters even expressed their regret and condolences after the visit.

"What do you want to know?"

"Is there any difference between the stolen masks?"

Vera thought it would be better for her to ask questions about this matter.

"What's the difference? Oh, young man, every artifact here is different in its own way, and in my opinion, all of them are priceless. ”

The old man didn't seem satisfied with Vera's words, "But if you're here to inquire about its history, I can tell you that this mask was unearthed in Mexico and eventually brought back here by Captain Rhine, and that there are more treasures that have been brought back in this era...... However, there are some folklore about this mask. ”

"Folklore?"

"For example, the one who brought back this mask was a ghost ship."
