Chapter 23 Reading (Ask for Recommendation ~ Ask for Collection ~)
Jason, who was watched by a group of corpses, only felt that his hairs stood on end.
Especially the smile on the corpse's face made his cold pressure that had just disappeared come back.
Without hesitation, Jason began to back away again.
And this time, it was not until he was ten meters away that Jason stopped.
Whew, whew!
A rapid gasp came from Jason's mouth.
He needed to use this breath to adjust his state of mind at the moment.
When he learned of the existence of the 'Mysterious Side', Jason has always been cautious and cautious, even in several encounters with the Mysterious Side, he has relied on gunpowder and firearms to win.
However, Jason is well aware that as he delves deeper into the 'mysterious side', he will one day encounter problems that gunpowder and firearms can't solve.
It's just that......
He didn't expect to come back so quickly at this moment.
Looking at the corpses that had returned to their original state again, Jason couldn't help but raise his hand and press it on the book of 'Tufuyu' written by 'Dan'.
The shaking just now, Jason was clearly perceived.
If it hadn't been for that moment, Jason would have assured himself and Bundy that he and Bundy would have been in the club.
And then?
Thinking of the strange appearance of the corpses, Jason understood what awaited him.
It was as if he understood that the most important thing for him now was to get out of here, find a safe place, and start reading the book in his arms.
Resisting the impulse, Jason turned his head to Sheriff Bundy, and said very quickly: "Lock off this place, no one can approach, and immediately notify the people in the Crook Mine, Bottom Belt Reservoir Street and other places, so that they don't act rashly." ”
"Understood."
Bundy walked briskly over to Hall and the others.
For the sheriff, what he had just seen with his own eyes was enough for him to choose to listen to the advice of the 'sole expert' present.
And Hall and the others, who also saw that strange scene, faced with the order of their commander, they couldn't wait to raise their hands in agreement, and none of them wanted to step into it until there was a real solution.
Even......
Didn't want to stay here.
Eventually, as Bundy's deputy, Hall stepped forward and he led six young officers to cordon off the place.
Bundy led the rest of the men to the Crowk Mine, Bottom Belt Reservoir Street, and other places.
"I have to go myself."
"Others go, I'm not at ease."
Bundy said this to Jason, and after leaving Finch and a police carriage, he hurried away.
Similarly, Jason didn't stay long.
After Bundy leaves, he says hello to Hall and boards the carriage, with Finch as the coachman.
Inside the carriage, Jason couldn't wait to open the heavy book.
Jerky, illegible words appeared in Jason's eyes in the light of kerosene lamps outside the car window.
"Hip...... The Laugher, first appeared in the northern part of Ward...... It was not confirmed to exist until Hr 1073...... It must have been the work of some crazy alchemist...... Good climber, hard fur, sharp teeth...... Fear of heat. ”
"Tricky...... , in Hr 1234, summoned by the admirers of 'Teoli (vague, smeared)'...... After mating with a certain kind of frog, the current trickster appeared...... Two tongues, six meters long, tough and powerful...... Slow to move and have low self-defense...... But if there is a third tongue...... Movement speed will be faster. ”
"Submariner...... Descendants of Deep Divers...... There was a similar ...... back in the year 700 Water Ghost Records...... He has ten powerful 10-meter brachial ...... When the brachiopod exceeds 20 meters, it will make an effort to go to the ocean...... You have to survive where there is water...... In normal state...... Weak ......"
……
Jason sat there little by little, looking at the book written by 'Tufuyu' almost word for word.
In the beginning, it is the easiest.
Because, Jason found that 'this teacher of his' thoughtfully described the monsters he had encountered.
This allows Jason to face this difficult language and quickly get started based on the actual situation he has experienced.
Naturally, this also made Jason more and more sure of his previous suspicion: 'this teacher of his' did not come to Lord for no reason at all, and should be chasing the mysterious person related to Karina.
Otherwise, it would not be possible to provide such detailed and accurate information.
Even, the scene just now may have been arranged by the mysterious person related to Karina against 'this teacher of his'.
Otherwise, just killing some ordinary people, there is no need for such special means.
Just keep the previous style and send those monsters more than enough!
The planned 'transfer' of Bundy and others was also to avoid the mass death of Bundy and others...... No, not in the true sense of the word, it's just that the other side doesn't want to be completely hostile to the official forces represented by Bundy.
But he was 'too fast' and hit the muzzle!
Through reading, Jason, who regained his composure, began to gradually sort out his thoughts.
Call!
Jason, who figured out the cause and effect, took a deep breath, adjusted his sitting position, and began to read.
Although the arrangement just now was not aimed at him.
But that feeling of powerlessness, Jason didn't want to experience it a second time.
As for relying on 'his teacher'?
Let's not say that he's just a fake 'heir', even if it's real, Jason is more used to relying on himself!
Not to mention......
Didn't 'his teacher' give him the way to deal with it?
With all his heart, Jason didn't even realize that he had already arrived at the door of the police station.
Finch looked at Jason, who was still reading, and didn't bother.
The young police officer who had experienced the 'Moon Mask' scene before knew that it was Jason looking for a solution.
"Hope everything goes well!"
The young police officer prayed, and then turned up the brightness of the kerosene lamp.
Then, he waved his hand at his colleague who came in the distance, and after making a silent gesture, he stood outside the carriage.
The last vestiges of the sun vanished completely.
The sky was completely darkened.
But the streets of Lorde did not calm down.
More police officers are running through the streets in the dark.
All the leave was canceled by Bundy just before sunset, and everyone returned to work with their guns loaded.
A sense of oppression hung over the entire city of Lord.
At this moment, the wind seemed to become lighter.
People who were already hiding in their beds with their doors closed, heard the sound of their boots colliding with the ground on the street, and couldn't help but shrink their heads into the quilt and wrap their whole bodies tighter.
Others keep items that can be used as 'weapons' within easy reach, or even simply hold them in their hands.
But, their hands trembled.
Fear and panic pervade.
Faster than the plague.
And even more terrifying.
Inside the carriage, Jason could fully imagine what an ordinary person would look like in such a situation.
Even, he was sure that if he left it to develop, what would eventually evolve.
Confusion!
A big mess without reason!
It's time to hold on to it!
Thinking like this, Jason once again focused on the book in his hand.
but
The next moment, a sudden change occurred.
