Chapter 1: Disasters
Europe, Port Z.
After more than a decade, Marianne once again came to this port city with good weather all year round, the first fishermen returned, fishmongers gathered towards the port, and large quantities of fresh fish were distributed to the merchants.
People come and go, smiling, full of joy of harvest, everything is thriving.
Except, the diners of each restaurant were as if they were fascinated, and they threw themselves on the food presented by the restaurant, giving up their knives and forks and stuffing the food into their mouths with both hands.
Without squinting, Marianne walked into one of the most imposing restaurants in the area, and this fancy upscale restaurant had few diners compared to the overcrowded restaurants on the street.
At a glance, she saw the man in the restaurant who was as fat as a hill, and the waiter in the restaurant was busy bringing plates of food and glasses of red wine to the table. The man was lying sideways on a pew, a figure that made it hard not to wonder if he could still move around normally.
Sitting across from him was a pale-skinned, dark-eyed, sickly-looking girl, with a small body covered in a wide sweatshirt, and when the girl saw Marianne, she whistled lightly, "Yo, the third one has arrived, but it's a pity that more than half of the magic is wasted." ”
Hearing this, Marianne was not angry, and chose a place to sit down.
"Phew—since you're here so early, it seems that the newcomer's promotion assessment has failed."
The fat man shoved a whole roast turkey leg into his mouth with his greasy hands, and his voice became a little slurred, "Hmm...... It's made a lot of movement, it's quite promising, let's eat, you're welcome, it's all good ingredients. ”
……
"Hello customer, video recording is prohibited in the store."
The camera suddenly turned to the side, and a waiter squinted at the camera and smiled, "We noticed that you haven't moved your mouth yet, is it because the dishes in this restaurant are not to your taste?" Let's try it, we are confident in the ingredients and dishes we offer, and you will enjoy the food as soon as you taste it. ”
As he spoke, the waiter opened his eyes, and there were no whites of his eyes and eyeballs in his sockets, but a blood-red color.
"Chilling can ruin the beauty of the food, am I right, Lovely Miss Witcher?"
………………
This is the end of the video material.
"According to the feedback from the Witcher Guild, the disasters that attended the gathering were 'Famine', 'Black Death', and the 'Witch of Twilight' that you know about, and when they got the video data to launch a rescue plan, all the residents of Port Z disappeared."
The middle-aged man said, "Before you have time to introduce yourself, you can call me Captain, an S-class employee of the headquarters." ”
Being an S-class employee, Gu Yun felt that the captain's aura was much stronger than Shen Yue's, like the difference between a novice and an old soldier who had just left the village.
But even if this person's aura is very strong, the truth still has to be said.
"I have no plans to go to Europe yet."
"Master Gu, you are too worried, unless you have your consent, the Foundation will not force any employees to perform tasks, and the 'Famine' and 'Black Death' are more dangerous than the disaster that occurred in X City this time, and the Foundation will not act rashly until everything is prepared."
In fact, Gu Yun's behavior this time was quite rash.
What appeared in X City is a "natural disaster" that is completing its transformation, and it is precisely because of the department's understanding of natural disasters over the years that they dare not act rashly on the events of X City, and so far, the only time humans have defeated natural disasters in the record dates back to centuries ago - the elites of the European Demon Hunter Guild ended her life before the "Witch of Dusk" completed her transformation.
However, it turns out that despite the loss of the Dusk Grimoire, Marianne Thesia is still alive, and the bloodlines of the two great witcher families of Belmont and Winchester are almost severed.
So this time, the foundation took a very high attitude towards Gu Yun.
In fact, it was foggy at that time, and they had no way of knowing how Gu Yun had eliminated the natural disaster.
"The ultimate goal of the Foundation is precisely to enable human beings to master the ability to compete with natural disasters, and there is no doubt that Master Gu, you have taken the lead in accomplishing this great cause."
Without the support of intelligence and analysts, he single-handedly ended this impending disaster.
Such a feat even made the headquarters have to wonder if Gu Yun is still a human being.
"Therefore, the Foundation hopes that you can help us teach a group of students, please rest assured, they are all elite students selected by the department."
Gu Yun was in a good mood when he heard the compliment, but the captain suddenly said such a sentence, which made him suddenly feel that something was wrong.
"No, I'm quite satisfied with my current job......"
"Master Gu doesn't have to be busy refusing, he only needs to occupy one day of your time a week, and the headquarters has verified the situation you are in, if you agree, the X City Branch will also give you quite preferential treatment."
"How?"
One day a week, and there is also a pay, Gu Yun thought about it and felt that he could understand it a little.
"I think it's a bit insulting to talk about specific remuneration with a strong person like you, no matter what you need in the future, you can directly find the person in charge of the branch to solve it, in addition, we investigated that Master Gu's sister is still in high school, and the Foundation has a lot of resources in this area, no matter what school Ling Mei wants to apply for in the future, we will provide corresponding resources, in addition, all the information about supernatural creatures in the department will be open to you."
"That's fine."
Gu Yun immediately agreed to this errand, the job of a bounty hunter is full of uncertainty, and he can still spare one day a week, what he values is mainly the sharing of information, as long as he has this information, he will not have to rely on Weibo news and Baidu to know this kind of local method to eliminate spirits in the future.
As for the entrance examination, although it sounds tempting, he believes that with his sister's learning ability, it should be easy to get into any university.
If this kid can put this energy into practice, he may become another powerful warrior after him who has passed the four trials.
However, a series of recent events have made Gu Yun gradually see that everyone has their own ambitions, and they can't be forced.
He can still fight, and with the help of the Foundation, he doesn't have to worry about security in the short term.
It's just that......
This change came too suddenly, which made Gu Yun a little uncomfortable.
In the past, people called him Xiao Gu when he went out, and even said that he was insane, but now wherever he goes, others call Master Gu one by one, and he is a little embarrassed.
"It's a deal."
The captain nodded, "Then don't bother Master Gu, I hope we can work together to eradicate the harm caused by natural disasters as soon as possible." ”
