Chapter 0168: Ma Kai's Scepter
Gerald had already prepared the vehicle and was waiting outside the hotel, he saw Downing followed by the paladin, Gerald didn't know the identity of the paladin, only knew that his employer didn't close his eyes all night last night, taking care of the paladin, he asked about the relationship between the two, the employer didn't say it explicitly, just said that he had met a few times.
"Sir, please get in the car, we will leave now. Gerald went up and took Downing's things, put them on the roof of the car, and stood aside.
Tangning looked back at the paladin. "Come on, good fellow. ”
The paladin frowned and sat down in the dilapidated carriage. "Don't call me that, I'm not a demon's companion. "He refuses to have any intimate relationship with young people.
Gerald watched the scene and looked at Downing, who shrugged his shoulders and sat down in the car.
When the vehicle was out of the city, he was interrogated, which made the paladin extremely nervous and a little unnatural, he was now a murderer, and he could be taken away by these guys at any time and be punished by the laws of the world.
The sheriff stuck his head out the window and looked at the two young men. "Two young men, there was a lot going on in Hawke last night, you have to come down and get checked. ”
"No problem. Downing pushed the door open and looked back at the paladin. "My opponent, come down, hurry up, don't make the sheriffs wait, you will have to sit in the prison before the duel begins. ”
The paladin didn't understand what the other man was talking about, but he knew he had to get out of the car, get out of the car, and stand next to the hateful young man.
The sheriff listened to Tang Ning's call, frowned and asked, "Aren't you friends?"
"Don't get me wrong, I don't have a mean friend like him, he doesn't have a kind friend like me, I am an opponent and an enemy with him. Downing explained to the sheriff.
Cybertron suddenly found out that he had been fooled, and this guy was about to betray himself, and he was furious. "Damn it, whatever I do, it's righteous, and whatever you do doesn't change that you're an evil guy. He reached out and grabbed Downing by the collar, eager to beat him.
"Hey, hey, calm down. The sheriff separated the two and looked at the two young men. "Let's talk about what's going on. ”
"I'm sorry, he kidnapped my cousin, the whole family is in a hurry, I have to take this liar back to give the whole family an explanation, it's convenient. Downing explained to the sheriff. "Of course, it would be better if you could just arrest him and put him in prison, such a person should be punished. ”
Cybertron still didn't understand what the other cow was saying, but it was an insult to him, and he wanted to punch someone, at least before he went to prison, he had to make this guy suffer a little pain.
The sheriff captures Cybertron. "If you hit someone in front of me, I'll handcuff you. After warning the paladin, the sheriff looked at Downing. "I'm sorry, it's your own family matter, the law doesn't serve this kind of, and there are enough people in the prison, you can solve it yourself, it's better to go far, leave Hawke, and don't trouble us. ”
The sheriffs of Hawke are used to messing around, and Liberty City is not a wasted name, and they would rather have more than less, which seems to them to be a farce. "Hurry up and get out. ”
Downing shrugged. "Well, then, I'll have to go back and deal with him again, and I won't bother you. He reached out and grabbed Cybertron's shoulder, wincing an eyebrow.
At this time, Cybertron reacted, he was acting just now, which made the sheriff feel bored, so that they could get out quickly, and understood the other party's intentions, Cybertron said angrily: "I really love her, you dictators, stop the demon of true love." ”
The two pushed and got into the car, and the car left, and the sheriff took a look, shook his head, and muttered, "Liberty City is not a good place to elope, what a fool, no one's place is the best choice." ”
The vehicle managed to get out of the inspection, and Downing looked at the paladin. "It's a pretty good job, you said we're not partners or friends, so you should be pretty happy with the title of enemy. ”
"If there's a next time, you'll have to be the damn guy kidnapping someone else's cousin, and that's what we're both doing. Cybertron replied coldly.
"Well, no problem, I'm happy to do this kind of thing, if you do have a cousin who is abducted by me, I don't think you will sit in a car with me, but cut off my head on the spot. Downing joked that this paladin was a little cute at times, stubborn and cute.
"Sir, where are we going?" Gerard held the reins of his horse in the car, listening to the conversation between the two of them, asking about his next goals and plans.
"We have to go to Garru, a city of rocks. Downing replied that the next target was in Garruh, a place known as the City of Rocks, which was not a good place, where poverty was rampant, theft was rampant, and it was known as the forgotten place of the gods on the Eternal Continent.
The bounty hunter Tom Stark lived there, and as a bounty hunter, Tom Stark used to be famous, but then suddenly one day he quit the bounty hunter organization and chose to become a normal person, and disappeared as if he had disappeared from the world.
Uncle Soluk once approached him and found out that he had chosen to become a carpenter, building houses for some people in Garrue City, and his income had plummeted, Uncle Soluk hoped that he would be able to come back and contribute to the new rules and order of the Bounty Hunter Organization, but he refused, and it was because of this missing vote that Uncle Soluk lost to Hendwell Carter, but Uncle Soluk seemed quite happy when he mentioned Tom Stark.
"You can't believe how interesting it is that he quit the Bounty Hunters and chose to become a carpenter, but I know that I have to support him in this matter, and I don't blame him, so he's a really good guy, and if you meet him, you can ask him personally, yes, he's a good partner you can trust. ”
Uncle Soluk's words lingered in Downing's heart, it was probably not easy to get a hunter who quit the bounty hunter organization and became a carpenter to resume his old business, his imagination would work, all of this would have to wait until the meeting, and he was also curious about what made him retire and make Uncle Soluk feel interesting.
"No problem, let's head to the City of Rocks. Gerald waved his whip, and the old carriage shook even more violently.
Cybertron had another thing on his mind, Hawke's Holy See was not to be trusted, and he traveled to the City of Rocks in the hope that the Holy See there would administer justice.
At this time, he remembered something, the relationship with Downing was quite bad, he could not mention it at all, but Pugna died for him, and the girl had a pretty good relationship with Pugna, and he couldn't let that girl have an accident for Pugna's sake.
Cybertron turned his head to look at the young man who was already sleeping in the carriage, pretending not to care. "I have to tell you something, your lover, Miss Taylor, is looking for you, and I have seen her in Havana. ”
Tangning opened his eyes and looked at the paladin's side face. "She's not my lover. But he was still a little helpless in his heart, this girl seemed to be entangled with him, the last time he let the mysterious organization target him because of him, if he hadn't arrived in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable, this girl was stubborn and terrible, I hope she can give up.
"I know you're not surprised by what you're saying, but I'm just reminding you, and I'm not in a position to ask what you're going to do. ”
Saying this, Cybertron was angry in his heart, that something was wrong with that girl, and it would make him feel sorry for the dead Pugna.
While the carriage was leaving Hawke, someone was doing an investigation at Hawke's church, and Johnson Wilson was examining the wounds of the dead. "Injured by a sharp weapon, it seems that the murderer's skills are quite good, and it is worth recording. ”
John recorded all this information in his small notebook, and the entourage of the Public Security Department next to him saw this scene, shook his head and said, "The murderer did not leave any clues, we have already investigated once." ”
As a paladin sent by the Holy City, of course, he will have strong support from the local government, John had already gone to the local Sheriff's Department to inquire and investigate the information when he stepped into Hawke, the Sheriff's Department here is quite bad, and the information that can be provided is very limited, which makes him quite annoyed, but as a Paladin, he belongs to a different system from the Sheriff's Department, and his anger has no effect in the eyes of those Sheriff's Department guys.
So everything has to be done on his own, listening to the reminder of the sheriff next to him, John doesn't care, these idiots will definitely miss some clues.
He ignored the other party, much to the displeasure of the sheriff who accompanied him, looked at the back of the paladin, muttered a few words, and said, "I'll go to the door and smoke a cigarette." ”
The sheriff left, John looked back, frowned, he walked into the prison of the church, the prison was quite dim, in one of the cells he found a lot of blood stains, pushed open the cell door and walked in, checked the blood stains on the ground, suddenly found some very strange powder, he scraped off some of the powder and put it in the palm of his hand, studied it carefully, and the palm of his hand emitted a faint holy light.
"Magic potions?" John found some clues, it seems that some supernatural forces once existed here, he used the holy light to continue to investigate those magic potions, with the holy light possessed by the Golden Sword Badge Paladin, he could easily check any magic potions.
And as a paladin, he must know everything about magic potions, and soon he made an accurate judgment, it was a magic potion that could soften people's bones, and he looked up at the small window, where there were some footprints, and someone had escaped from here with this potion.
With this news, John came out of the prison and went to the room where Cardinal Salah was alive, and there was only a red cloak in the corner of the room, which was the cardinal's clothes, and then there were some fragments, which John looked down to examine first.
The Holy Light quickly identified that it was a fragment of some kind of magical artifact, and took out a book from his bosom, which recorded almost all the existing magical artifacts, and he put those fragments together, and then searched for them, and soon found the original name of the magical artifact on the classic.
"Mackay's Scepter. According to the introduction in this book, the Makai Scepter has the ability to manipulate arcane thunder and lightning, this ultra-rare magical artifact is not common, and it seems that the murderer used the Makai Scepter.
Wrote these down in his notebook, and then a broken knife, put the blade together and looked at it, it was just an ordinary blade, and there were some arcane thunderbolt effects of Makai's Scepter on this blade, which meant that it was not the murderer who used Makai's Scepter, but the Holy See who used this staff to resist.
Because this blade matched the wounds on the corpses outside, which showed that the murderer used the blade, and things gradually became clear, a guy who used a blade, and the fighting skills were quite superb, and he was able to resist the arcane lightning attack of Ma Kai's scepter, the murderer was quite powerful, and had great supernatural powers.
