Chapter 451: The Editor-in-Chief's Past
"Well, don't worry, Viola and they will stay here, the guild will also find them to make dragon skin armor recently, Vivien should also enter the precipitation period of spiritual power during this time, and consolidate her own skill connection, so this time I will go alone. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
This time the place is not far away, and the journey by car is more than half a day's journey, and the quest scroll sent by the guild is only a negotiation, so it shouldn't take much time, so Watson doesn't plan to let people go along.
"By the way, Lord Watson might be interested in a fire that suddenly appeared in that human town during this time. ”
Arlinn says as if she had thought of something.
"Is the fire?
"Yes, actually a month ago, there was a serious fire in that town, which was said to have spread throughout the town...... At least that's what the orcs on the outside looked like, but by the time they arrived, there was nothing to lose in the town, and the fire was as if it had never happened. ”
Arlinn himself has asked the Editor-in-Chief about the fire out of curiosity, but he doesn't seem to know much about it.
"I wonder if Arlinn can you give me some information on this, the guild doesn't know if they will prepare me for that town, I'm leaving at 2 p.m. to learn more about that town. ”
If the orcs outside those towns see it right, then this town is definitely not simple, and supernatural phenomena will not arise for no reason, there must be some reason for it.
"No problem, it's not important information, it's just some idle reports, I remember there are pictures taken at that time, I'm going to get them now, you can see them later." ”
Arlinn gets up and leaves, the newspaper office is not far from here, and it's only a 15-minute taxi ride away.
Emerging from Watson's house, Arlinn trots out into the street, hails a taxi, and waves to her when she sees her friend across the street.
"You've been in there for so long, I thought you were dead inside, and I almost died in a hurry!"
The girl hugs Arlinn and says worriedly.
"Haha, you would never have imagined how I was treated at Lord Watson's house, but I would have eaten with a group of demon hunters and been called friends by them. ”
Arlinn speaks of this with a look of pride on her face.
"What? You're eating with a bunch of demon hunters, this, this, this...... It's crazy. ”
"And even crazier, you know what I'm eating! Dragon's meat! The dragon slayer cut it for me himself! Actually, I feel like I'm full of power right now, I can fight ten like you!"
Arlinn clenched her fists and punched forward, which was the strength of an apprentice's mid-level professional, which meant that after eating a dragon meat feast, she directly reached the strength of an apprentice's mid-rank.
"Then why don't you stay a little longer? Why did you come out in a hurry, ordinary people will never have this kind of opportunity in their lifetime. ”
"Because Lord Watson asked me to do him a favor, I can go back, Mr. Driver, just get out of the car in front. ”
Arlinn pulls her buddies out of the car and runs to the newspaper office, rushing up to the third floor to find her editor-in-chief.
"Did it work?"
The Editor-in-Chief asks when he sees Arlinn excitedly rushing in.
"What do you think this is? I'm treated like a guest, and though I use some small means, but the ending is good, and now I need you to give me the information on the pioneer area I saw the other day, and Lord Watson will come over in the afternoon, and I want to give him some information about the town over there. ”
"Are you sure he's going to that town in the Pioneer Zone......?" It's all here!"
Arlinn notices that the editor-in-chief looks a little wrong when she hears the news, and crouches down and pulls out a cardboard box from under her desk, realizing that the materials she had been reading were only a small part of it.
"Editor-in-chief Joshua, what are you doing collecting so much information about that town......
"Arlinn, I can give you all this information, but can you do me one more thing and take me to the adult......? There are very important things!"
Joshua's eyes were a little red, and his eyes were full of inexplicable emotions.
"Alright then, I'll take you. ”
"Thank you, thank you very much, it's really important to me, it's important!"
Joshua was already a little incoherent, and his hands holding the cardboard box were already a little pale......
Arlinn takes him to the door of Watson's house and knocks on the door, and Viola opens the door.
"This is ......"
Watson looks at the restless man holding a cardboard box in front of him, and asks Arlinn.
"I'm Joshua, Arlinn's editor-in-chief, Lord Watson...... Here's all the stuff for that town! I've been collecting it for five years! I'm giving it all to you now!"
"Five years...... Mr. Joshua, do you have anything to do with that town?"
"Yes, my wife and daughter got lost in that town for no reason five years ago! I found it and I still haven't found any trace, I think there's something wrong with that town, a big problem! It's not a lie, it's something I've been collecting. ”
Joshua placed the cardboard box on the floor in front of Watson, and Watson first noticed a picture frame with a photo of a family of three, which should be Joshua's family.
"Tell me if you find anything suspicious, I can't read it alone, Mr. Joshua, sit down, and tell me your story. ”
Viola brought a chair from the side, and Joshua began to talk about his trip five years ago.
It was a family trip, and Joshua had just taken office as the newspaper's editor-in-chief, and it was when he was full of ambition, because his daughter wanted to meet the orcs, so she didn't hesitate to go to the wilderness.
Everything went smoothly and the family of three had a good time, but things took a turn for the worse after he went to buy ice cream for his daughter.
His wife and daughter disappeared so suddenly, and he went mad and rushed into the local garrison to ask for a search, asking all the people of the town, but not a single one of them had a clue!
"Silent Town, a town in the mountains, because it is surrounded by orcs, so it is supported by the Erion government as a pilot area, and most of the local people are homeless people from all over the world, and the government provides them with accommodation and work for free......"
Catherine was on the side to tell Watson about the origins of the town.
