Weiss was talking about the Arabian Nights, and Liu Ci looked at him with a gaze that made him angry, as if the other party was looking at a fool.

Liu Ci did feel that Weiss was not mentally normal at this time.

In fact, no matter what a person is too obsessed with, he will have mental conjectures. Weiss's madness lay not in his thirst for a position of power, but in his pursuit of scholarship.

If it is true, as he said, the entire inhabitants of Husum died during the flooding of the Yadan River a few years ago, and now all she sees are "living" dead.

The dead of a whole city.

They were talking to each other, their minds quick, shopping for tomorrow's meal, haggling and rejoicing in the discounts. This group of people is so alive that it is impossible to tell that they have long since died...... Anyone, including Liu Ci, will probably feel uncomfortable or even afraid when they learn the truth, even if they are not sad.

But Weiss is different.

He was obsessed with the weirdness of Husum, and even saw the living dead as a treasure trove that could lead to a major breakthrough in the Dark Council's research.

His fanaticism for dark magic has completely suppressed the emotions that a normal human would have. Liu Ci has always felt that her three views are quite abnormal, lacking the suppleness and kindness unique to women, but seeing Weiss's state, she feels that the other party does not seem to have "three views" at all.

In a person's consciousness, there is no right or wrong, and there is no human pity that is more or less human...... Could it be that this is the terrible thing about the dark mages, the reason why thousands of years ago, the Holy See and the Magic Association joined forces to expel them from the Bright Continent at any cost?

Liu Ci had always thought that the Holy See was dark, but after the comparison between Veblen Priest and Dark Mage Weiss, she didn't know whether to trust her initial judgment.

"You're saying that the city of Husum, the city that has a life, wants my magic plant...... And you sneaked into my room, probably trying to protect my property, did you? ”

The faint sarcasm on Liu Ci's lips made Weiss avoid her gaze and smile unnaturally:

"I'm just curious, there is a change in Husum City, which has never moved, so I want to study your magic plant...... How do you know that you hid a scroll in the flower pot, I thought it was a mental attack, so I accidentally broke the flower pot. ”

Liu Ci's tracking charm is okay for dealing with ordinary people, and with Weis's attainments in spiritual power, he discovered the existence of Liu Ci's divine consciousness seed at that time. He carefully peeled off this spiritual seed and placed it on the Marquis of Stlev.

In order to make the Marquis of Strave suspicious, Weiss also made the Marquis have a nightmare with a mental hint.

To be honest, he didn't understand how Liu Ci decided that the "thief" was him, obviously the marquis had a criminal record, and he was more motivated!

Liu Ci obviously didn't intend to tell him the truth, Weiss was helpless, Liu Ci's calmness sobered up his fanaticism a little, Weiss suddenly looked around, and then frowned tightly.

"You must have foolishly informed Priest Veblen when you came out, did you?"

Liu Ci shrugged: "How come?!" ”

Of course, she didn't deliberately hide her whereabouts or anything like that, otherwise she would be unlucky to be discovered, and Priest Veblen misunderstood that she and the Dark Mage were in a group, and it would be too bad to engage in any conspiracy.

Liu Ci silently added in his heart that Weiss didn't pay attention to her anymore, but looked at the dark place on the street corner.

"Priest Veblen, since you are here, why don't you stand up in the open."

Liu Ci felt that Weis's calmness was not very moving, she didn't understand the reason why Weiss returned to Husum at first, but now that she knew that he was so obsessed, Liu Ci was really afraid that she would accidentally anger the other party.

As soon as he didn't move, he quietly took a few steps back to the side, and the sound of horses' hooves sounded on the street corner.

There are not only Veblen the priest of light, but also the twenty-four knights of light who are ready to fight.

"Mr. Weiss, Bishop Simpson has always felt that your meekness is against the norm of a dark mage, and you have been very honest all the way, so it turns out that you are for the city of Husum...... While tracking you is very inconsistent with my past actions, thank you for solving a mystery for the Holy See. ”

The old priest said very solemnly.

How could the diocese of Yesdan not be aware of the anomaly in the city of Husum? Passing through the city of Rouen, the priest of Valolet warned Veblen that they had to be careful if they were passing through the city of Husum.

Priest Veblen had planned to change course, but he decided to take the risk of taking the road because he thought of the dark mage who had been unable to see through it.

Sure enough, in the most complicated port, Vis showed no signs of fleeing. But after arriving in Husum, it began to be abnormal.

Liu Ci could find out about it, how could this old man be defenseless? After Weiss and Liu Ci left the camp one after another, Priest Veblen followed from afar with the Knight of Light.

Unlike Liu Ci's trip to Husum to gamble on luck, Priest Veblen was really able to grasp Vess's whereabouts. Following the direction of the underground undercurrent, we returned all the way to the city of Husum. Unexpectedly, not only did I see the strangeness of Husum City in the mouth of the priest of Vaolet, but also heard about the secrets of Husum City from the mouth of Weiss.

Vis stared at Priest Veblen with a depressed expression: "I haven't found you, you used the hidden enchantment, right?" ”

Priest Veblen nodded.

Vis sighed, "You can't use magic here. Priest Veblen, your recklessness, alarmed it...... Chances are, we're all going to be stuck in Husum. ”

Weiss's words made everyone stunned.

Just as everyone flickered their minds, Weiss snapped his fingers, and a black smoke appeared out of thin air.

Veblen Priest secretly screamed "Oh no," and the Knights of Light quickly dispersed to envelop the black smoke. But by the time Veblen priest dispersed the black smoke, Vis was gone.

Only Liu Ci with an innocent face was left in the circle.

Veblen closed his eyes for a moment, and then said to the knights: "He has not gone far, he is nearby, you search carefully." ”

The knights were about to receive their orders to leave, when the priest Veblen stopped them and said, "Be careful not to alarm the people in the city." ”

Although he was skeptical of Vess's words, out of caution, Priest Veblen deliberately reminded the Knights of Light.

The Knights of Light were gone, and the Veblen priests remained where they were.

The old priest looked at the dilapidated church, and for a moment his heart was filled with emotion. He was hesitating whether to go in and take a look, when Liu Ci on the side suddenly said:

"Priestess, will it be ...... for you to come out with the Knight of Light and leave my maid alone in the camp with the Marquis of Streif?"

At such a solemn moment, the Veblen priests were made to laugh and cry by Liu Ci's careful eyes.

"The Marquis of Strave is a personable nobleman."

After saying this, the Veblen priest was silent. The implication is that it is Liu Ci himself who has an enmity with the marquis, and the maid Sang Man is just an irrelevant little shrimp to the marquis, how could a big nobleman lose his identity and personally attack a little girl?

Liu Ci was noncommittal, a big nobleman still wanted to secretly kill him and her Mo Zhu, a man with a distorted psychology, who knows where his bottom line is, he has long been out of discipline!

But now is not the time to mention this, Weiss's words before he disappeared made Liu Ci feel strange in his heart, and it was more secure to follow Priest Veblen closely.

Neither did Veblen say anything to stop him.

The two entered the dilapidated church together, and after a long walk, they finally became convinced that it had indeed been abandoned for several years.

"Could it be that what Vis said is true, what is the life of the city of Husum? But there are pedestrians everywhere, why is the church so deserted......"

Liu Ci muttered to himself.

Priest Veblen rubbed the broken olive wood scepter on his chest, unaware of what he was whispering.

This obscure scripture seemed to give Veblen priest strength, and when he opened his eyes again, the old man's eyes were full of vicissitudes of life.

He was about to say something when the sound of horses' hooves was heard outside the church.

Twenty-four Knights of Light actually returned quickly.

Priest Veblen walked out quickly, and Liu Ci followed closely behind.

"What's going on?"

A knight of light jumped off his horse with a blank look on his face: "Lord Priest, those who used to walk in the streets have suddenly disappeared......"

Priest Veblen frowned: "What do you mean to disappear suddenly?" ”

Liu Ci also followed the knight into the distance, the brightly lit street was not far from here, and she could still see the daytime lights.

However, if you listen closely, the whole city of Husum has indeed fallen from bustle to sudden silence.

"Could it be, they all ...... Coming home? Speaking of the living dead coming home, Liu Ci felt that his hairs stood on end.

"No, they didn't come home, they were like that, in the blink of an eye, they suddenly disappeared from the street!" The Knight of Light shook his head, trying to make sense of the difference between the two situations.

Priest Veblen held the olive wood scepter on his chest and said in a deep voice, "Don't go to Vis for now, let's take a look around the city." ”

The old priest walked, and the knights led their horses, and Liu Ci followed Veblen.

They walked through the streets, the shops were not closed, and the shelves were full of goods. Even the skewers on the grill are dripping grease on the coals, giving off an enticing aroma.

But as the Knight of Light said, all the people were gone.

Veblen even went to the lord's house, the door was open, the water in the copper basin was still warm, a towel was placed on the edge of the basin, and the master who was supposed to wash his face and sleep disappeared.

There was no sound from people, and there was no neighing of poultry animals. Weiss said that those people were dead people, and Husum was a living city. But the current situation is that a large group of flesh-and-blood "dead people" disappeared under the noses of Liu Ci and others, and Husum, who is said to be alive, has no additional sound except for bright lights, but looks like a real ghost town.

"Are we still in Husum?"

Liu Ci even suspected that everyone had been transferred to another place by something like the magic array in a very short period of time.

"No, we're still in place."

Veblen retorted in an unusually certain tone. Although he also felt that everything in front of him was absurd, the old priest firmly believed that all magical means would leave more or less traces. With his strength and eyesight, he may not be able to see where there is a magic array, but once this magic array is activated, he still can't see it...... That's really ridiculous.

Veblen the priest led the people through the city, and found no one to say.

To make matters worse, the candles in one shop went out suddenly without warning. It's like being caught in some kind of contagion, and the shops around them, one after another, the candles that have been burning all the time are suddenly extinguished.

There is not a bit of wind around at all!

In just a few breaths, Liu Ci and Priest Veblen stood on a dark street with no light at all.

The horse led by the Knight of Light began to neigh uneasily.

Not only the street where everyone was staying, but also the lights in the neighborhood were gradually extinguished.

Liu Ci suddenly remembered Weiss's explanation of Husum City.

He said that those who lived in the city of Husum during the day and those who lived in the city of Husum at night were two different states of living people. They are like two parallel straight lines, which will never intersect......

"Let's go, let's go where the lights haven't gone out yet!"

Liu Ci suddenly shouted, and took the lead in running in the direction where the lights had not yet been extinguished.

Priest Veblen did not hesitate, and at the sound of the order, the knights of light mounted one after another.

Liu Ci activated the power of the Shenxing Talisman and ran at full speed. Her speed is on par with that of the Knight of Light, the best of the best-breeded horses. The crowd ran through the streets of the city like a whirlwind.

Rao is so fast, they can only catch up with the speed at which the lights go out.

Liu Ci moved forward desperately, and soon found that the direction she was running in was the gate of Husum City. The lights are gradually extinguished from the inner city in the direction of the city gates!

She had a bad feeling that something bad would happen to them if they didn't leave Husum when the lights were all out...... Soon, soon, the city gate is ahead!

Liu Ci saw the city gate from afar.

There were countless torches stuck in the walls of the city gates, and those that were burning gave her hope...... Liu Ci ran towards the remaining light and ran at full speed-
