The successive massacres caused screams of terror to be heard in the buildings of Shiphull, but under the continuous rain, the sound was not obvious to the entire Hull.

But when the news spread, or when the power of Hull Town reacted, this bustling town was quickly "woken up"-

Not everyone who saw the killer was harmed, and some of them survived.

So the portrait of the murderer was quickly drawn.

Then, under the angry roars and orders of many people, a large-scale search and siege quickly began.

At the same time, the bell of the city council rang suddenly.

Compared with the grandeur and melodiousness of the church bells, this bell is dull and short, and it sounds very uncomfortable.

What's even more uncomfortable is actually the meaning of this bell -

In the event of a major situation, everyone immediately stays at home and is not allowed to go out.

This rule, or this custom, is a legacy of several Sea Clan invasions over thousands of years, and the current townspeople of Hull Town are relatively unfamiliar with it, but unfamiliarity does not mean that they do not know the meaning of it, because this custom has been passed down from generation to generation.

So although it is not clear what happened, the locals who were awakened by the sound of the bell remained at home.

Only some outsiders did not know about this, and then the next group of knights arrived and were reprimanded and interrogated.

The sound of the rain crashing on the pavement was very noticeable, but the sound of the horses' hooves was louder than the rain.

Accompanied by the sound of horses' hooves, there is also the friction and collision of the knights' full-body armor when they are hurrying, and the individual knights sound messy, but when they are assembled into a team, they look neat and orderly, full of power.

These voices were heard by almost everyone in Shiphull, as the knights' searches were carried out from house to house.

They pushed the door open and entered, scrutinizing each occupant of the room, holding a portrait of lines in their hands.

The portrait depicts a young man with a round face and short hair, who looks ordinary and has freckles on the tip of his nose, which looks relatively harmless.

However, this harmless young man was a very threatening presence in the eyes of the knights.

Murderous, cunning, crazy, weird......

They addressed the young man in the painting and sternly asked each of the interrogators if they knew him.

Most of them didn't know each other, but they learned from the knights what happened last night—

The mayor and some of the town's bigwigs were attacked.

A cultist went around murdering and injuring people last night, and set fire to it several times.

The youngest son of the Earl of Roland, Gerald's most favored son, had his eyes plucked out last night.

Many of the nobles in the neighborhood had their eyes plucked last night......

Time is limited, and not everyone can get the news out of the Patrol Riders smoothly, and even the Patrol Knights themselves may not be fully aware of it.

So the people have learned about the situation in different ways, and the severity is also different, but at least one news is certain-

There was a very serious murder last night, and the murderer is currently hiding in Hull Town!

The whole hull town was in a state of discussion, and the people here were both panicked and curious in the face of this news, so the dawn in the rain, which should have been silent, became extremely warm at this moment.

It was in this atmosphere that a certain patrol knight who arrived on a remote street in Shiphull Town learned from a middle-aged woman the address and identity information of the young man in his portrait -

"His name is Jim, and he used to be a sailor with ships."

The middle-aged woman carefully looked at the portrait in the light of a torch and gave the answer.

"But a while ago, he suddenly quit, but began to run around the town, and always opened his mouth to ask for help when he met people."

"When was the last time you saw him?" The young knight who asked was both nervous and excited.

The nervousness was due to the fact that he seemed to be close to the cruel murderer, but the excitement was that the matter was so serious, if he was the first to find the murderer, then it would be a great achievement!

"I saw him yesterday."

The middle-aged woman said, with a little pity on her face, "At the Happy Pier on Rotten Fish Street, he was thrown out because he didn't have the money to pay the bill. ”

The Happy Dock is naturally not a dock, but a brothel close to the dock, and as for what the consequences of not having money to pay the bill, the patrol knights are naturally clear.

Thinking that the Happy Pier was also the place where last night's victims, and even that there were many more victims than other places, he had a faint understanding.

But it wasn't his job to find out why something happened, what he had to do now was to report the news as soon as possible, lest anyone preempt him.

As for running to arrest the murderer now, it was not in his consideration, at least in the absence of strong demands from above, he would not approach the other party-

There were a lot of victims last night, and there were many transcendents among them, but it wasn't that the murderer took out his eyes as if he were a beast.

As a result, the young knight conveyed the news and was quickly understood by the Hull Town officials, and then organized at least a hundred armed men to surround it from all sides.

This is an exaggeration, because from the mouths of the victims, they know that the murderer, despite his strength, has never used supernatural strength, in other words, he seems to be just an ordinary person.

But the fact that an ordinary person can cause such a murder already shows something.

Besides, if this incident is so big, the impact will definitely be far-reaching, and if you don't put on an absolute attention and foolproof posture, you won't necessarily encounter any difficulties at the higher levels afterwards.

As a result, people near the murderer's address were able to see many figures passing cautiously through the surrounding streets, spears in the back and shields in front.

Others with bows and crossbows climbed onto roofs in all directions, and the footsteps of the houses caused many of the roofs to fall to dust, and the corresponding people looked at each other.

All the weapons in the hands of the besiegers were pointed at the thatched hut that was heavily surrounded, and the overall atmosphere was particularly solemn, as if this was a moment that would decide the fate of the entire Hull Town.

In a sense, this is true, but when a brave transcendent kicked open the thin wooden door with a hole in it and yelled inside, the response from the thatched hut was absurd—

Snoring.

The uniform snoring sound was faintly heard by the large number of besiegers outside as the door was broken, making these soldiers and knights who had all become chickens in the heavy rain feel dazed.

And when the knight and his companions who had broken the door carried out a round-faced young man who was sleeping soundly, the strange atmosphere was all the more awkward.

"That's ...... Caught? ”

Hull's sheriff, Wolf, directs the operation, but when the killer is in front of him, he is filled with suspicions.

Because this man really can't match the murder, but he looks very stupid.

But just as he was thinking this, a knight's deputy, who was searching the house, suddenly let out a burst of exclamation, and then ran out in a panic.

The sheriff was stunned when he saw this, and then hurriedly walked up and asked loudly.

"What happened?"

"Inside, inside......" The knight's face turned pale when he heard this.

"It's full of eyes!"
