Chapter 127: Natural Disasters (I)
In order to greet Gu Yun, Marianne specially put on makeup, put on the evening dress that she would only use for formal occasions, and her demeanor and temperament were kept in the best condition, but the first time this bastard saw her, he said that she was a "terrifying old man".
How unreasonable!
Where did she suffer this kind of humiliation from the dignified Dusk Witch, and the last time they met, Gu Yun framed her as being pretended by Green Winchester, and the new hatred added the old hatred, which made her eyes almost burst into flames.
If she hadn't been able to defeat Gu Yun at this stage, she would have had to raise this guy's ashes!
“…… You're not a horror old man? ”
Gu Yun saw that something didn't seem right in the atmosphere, so he asked tentatively.
Although Marianne Sesia meets all the characteristics of the terrifying old man, she has little to do with the Song Valley mentioned in the source. Song Gu is from X City, and Marianne mentioned that this is her first time in X City, so Song Gu was dead before she came, and the relationship between the two is incompatible.
"It's not!"
Marianne's tone was stiff, and she adjusted her mood and said, "I wanted to look for you as soon as I returned home, but those witchers have become restless again during the time we left, and it took a few days to sweep them away. ”
"That's the spell you left on me?"
Gu Yun immediately thought of the spell that the other party had mentioned when he first met Spero.
"The dream spell is very complex, even I need to go through some markers to lock your position across the continent, you can imagine this spell as ...... Interactions between pen pals. This spell can also give me some useful information along the way, for example, I know that there is actually a descendant of the Winchester family alive, and I have managed to get the Holy Lance-Barrow, and there is a cute little traitor in the association. ”
"You're going to shoot at them?"
Gu Yun frowned.
"Not yet, that little traitor, let's take it as a gift among pen pals...... As for Spero Winchester, if he is smart, he should never come back. ”
Gu Yun nodded, he didn't plan to get involved in the centuries-long feud between the Dusk Witch and the Winchester family, Avril was his current nominal employee, and it was the duty of a qualified boss to protect the personal safety of employees.
However, he felt that he needed to confirm one more important matter.
"You said you could use this spell to see what's going on on my side?"
Marianne was noncommittal.
"You're not going to peek at me taking a shower, are you?"
When asking this question, Gu Yun's expression was extremely serious, he was born in a village that followed tradition, and the elders and mother-in-law taught them from an early age that people should have a sense of shame, and only lovers can see each other's naked appearance.
Hearing this, Marianne almost squirted, she is a dignified twilight witch, is she the kind of voyeur who peeps into other people's baths?
"Who do you think I'm for?"
Horror Old Man.
Gu Yun almost blurted out, but considering Marianne's rejection of this name, he chose to remain silent this time.
Fortunately, Marianne did not inadvertently break the rules of the village, otherwise, he would have had to travel thousands of miles to the strange continent of Europe to tie Marianne back and enforce the village traditions.
"Forget it, let's get down to business."
Marianne decided to take the initiative to dominate the topic, with the degree of Gu Yun's thinking jumping, she would be angry with this guy here sooner or later, "Last time I was in a hurry, and I haven't had time to tell you some things." ”
Originally, the time was not so rushed, if the two could find a place to sit down and have a good talk, she would be able to tell each other the cause and result of the incident in X City completely.
However, this Gu Yun had to fight with her.
Isn't there not enough time after a fight?
She had to catch a flight back to Europe in the middle of the night, and even if the Dusk Witch had magic in the sky, she couldn't cross the ocean by herself with a broomstick.
"I'm sure you've noticed the anomaly in City X."
Legends and bizarre tales have become reality, and although there have been vague signs since a few years ago, in recent months, the phenomenon has reached a critical point, with one or more paranormal phenomena occurring almost every day.
"And this is going to start with the matter of Lucky Rabbit's Feet, one day, I suddenly received a revelation from 'God' that I could help someone in X City to complete the production of Lucky Rabbit's Feet."
Time seems to have returned to Wanhua City Square, the day of Ren Hell's press conference.
Liao Shengchuan offered a reward of 100,000 yuan, setting off a frenzy of rabbit hunting in the city.
And Marianne Thesia is definitely not the most devout believer, and it is impossible for her to run to City X to work as a witchcraft volunteer because of an ethereal revelation from "God".
"So we negotiated a quid pro quo, in exchange for the soul of Green Winchester on the condition of Lucky Rabbit's Feet."
And the ultimate goal of exchanging Green-Winchester's soul is, of course, to recover the lost "Twilight Grimoire", "but later I found out that the 'God' is not in X City, this city, there is only a little kid who hopes to replace the 'God'." ”
Because of this, Marianne decisively chose to retreat.
Being ruined by Gu Yun is only one thing, the deeper reason is that there is no need for her to fight hard in a foreign land and local forces for a little child.
"Of course that guy is not an ordinary little kid, his talent has been developed to a considerable stage, legends and strange tales have been revived one by one, and they are all thanks to his talent, the more people who are killed by strange tales and legends, the stronger his talent will be, and now, he seems to have reached the critical point of talent."
"Tipping point?"
"Completely out of the boundaries of human beings, there have been several similar situations in history, and later people habitually called these disasters that swept the entire continent natural disasters, and by the way, I was barely one of them."
Shamefully, she quickly became one of the few natural disasters to be "wiped out" by humans.
No way, the general environment is not good.
The Witcher's Guild, battered by several natural disasters, finally knew that it needed to nip the threat in the bud, and soon after the reputation of the Witch of Dusk spread, a crusading party of some of the strongest witchers of the era approached the door.
Later, she lost the Grimoire of Twilight, and had to choose to live in exile for centuries.
"If you don't stop him, X City, and even the entire continent, will become a breeding ground for strange stories."
The reason why Marianne told Gu Yun about this also had her own considerations.
She was sitting at home, and was inexplicably put on a swing by a little child, and if she really wanted to go to war, not only would she not necessarily be able to get a bargain, but she might also be stabbed in the back by the local forces, which is a loss-making deal no matter how you think about it.
Reason made her choose to retreat in time, but the more she took a step back, the more angry she became.
"Sooner or later, you'll meet him." Naturally, Marianne did not directly show her careful thoughts, but teased, "Of course, if you want to take refuge in Europe, I will welcome you as well." ”
"No need."
Turning entire cities and even entire continents into hotbeds of frustrating weirdness?
Isn't that the possibility that my sister will encounter an urban weird story like a scary old man when she rides home from school?
"I'll take care of it."
