Chapter 158: More Layman Than Him
The warm sunlight shone through the cracks in the curtains, and Miss Stephanie looked at Lewis in silence, confused.
Lewis thought for a moment and said coldly:
"Miss Stephanie, I will send you to the Church of the Night for refuge for the time being, and I will also help you buy a ticket to take you back to Trier, the capital of Intis.
Hopefully we'll see each other again. ”
"Okay." Stephanie nodded lightly and agreed, knowing that Lewis couldn't protect herself for long.
With Stephanie's approval, Lewis leads Stephanie to the local Church of the Night.
Due to the proximity of Enmatt Harbor to the sea, most of the locals believe in the Lord of the Storm, and the power of the Night Church in the local area is slightly weaker, and even the location of the church is not in the core area of Enmat Harbor.
Walking along the outskirts of the city, Lewis saw several gangsters in black suits, and whenever he met them, he would bow his head and naturally let the brim of his hat cover his face.
When he defeated the "Gray Wolf" last night, many slaves witnessed this scene, and I think that the forces of the whole Enmatt port should know what he did.
After entrusting Stephanie to the staff of the Church of the Night, Lewis leaves, preparing his ticket to Intis and preparing for the promotion ceremony.
Since Miss Stephanie has no identification, if you want to send Miss Stephanie back to Intis, you should consider finding someone you can trust and board one of those hidden private boats.
Lewis was walking down the middle of nowhere, when suddenly a man in a suit looked at him, Lewis smiled indifferently, he pressed his half-height silk top hat, lowered his head, and did not look at the other party.
The gang member was stunned for a moment, and he walked out of the street quickly, disappearing at the end of the street, looking a little hurried.
After a few minutes, Lewis heard the sound of hurried footsteps at the end of the street, fragmented but continuing, and seemed to be quite numerous.
Playing with his cane in his hand, Lewis approached the shadows, his figure merging with the shadows, making them extremely inconspicuous.
Since the defeat of "The Gray Wolf" yesterday, the entire port of Enmat has become unsafe, and the Enmat Brotherhood will be tracking him, presumably mostly to kill people.
This invisibly added difficulty to him, the difficulty of sending Miss Stephanie away.
Dengdenden!
The high-heeled leather shoes made a dull sound on the bluestone brick floor, and Lewis remained silent, watching four or five gang members walk in front of him, as if exchanging something.
"Are you sure you saw the 'lucky gentleman'?"
The gangster who had just seen Lewis affirmed, "Yes, it was on this street, he stopped, seemed to be thinking about something, but now left." ”
"We've only been here for a few minutes, and he can't go far, chase after him!"
Where the gang members ignored, a pair of brown eyes stared at them as they left, and then stepped out of the shadows to reveal a figure wearing a half-height silk top hat and a black cane in his hand.
"Sure enough, the Enmat Brotherhood is on the move, and they're looking for me."
Lewis was a little puzzled, "Gray Wolf" was already one of the strongest in the Enmat Brotherhood, and he defeated "Gray Wolf" and a number of low-rank transcendents yesterday, which should cause the other party to be jealous, at least the other party did not dare to take the initiative to find trouble.
Unless, the Enmat Brotherhood will have the confidence to defeat themselves and avenge the "Gray Wolf".
Lewis walked carefully through the streets, and it was not very difficult for him to avoid the pursuit of these ordinary people, because there was an innate gap between ordinary people and transcendentals, especially transcendents like him, who were extremely inspired.
All the way to the detective business, Lewis enters it, and the Detective Intis is still reading the newspaper, and it can be seen that his business is indeed bleak, so bleak that no one cares.
When the detective saw Lewis coming in, he walked alertly to the door, looked left and right, and then closed the door.
"Welcome, lucky gentleman." The detective laughed:
"I heard you killed the 'Gray Wolf' last night, and now, the Brotherhood of Enmat is looking for you everywhere.
Hey, I didn't expect the invincible 'Gray Wolf' to be killed by you, he's a truly powerful transcendent who can't even penetrate his skin. ”
"It's just luck, it's just that killing the 'gray wolf' has caused me a lot of trouble." Lewis sighed and took the black tea from the maid.
He didn't want to cause anything, he just wanted to quietly collect extraordinary materials and then be promoted quietly.
But now, everything that should be provoked is almost done, and it has angered the biggest local forces.
In addition, the "Heart of the Future" is still in his hands, and if the Storm Church knows about it, he will definitely be wanted as well.
"No one has ever killed a 'gray wolf' because of luck, and in the last two years, I've seen several transcendents provoke the 'gray wolf' and then die tragically, including some official transcendents." The detective laughed, knowing that Lewis had saved a young lady last night, and that Lewis was just being humble.
"Gray Wolf" is a powerful transcendent in his own right, not to mention that "Gray Wolf" has some magical items in his hand, which is not an opponent that can be defeated by luck.
"Let's not talk about it yet." Lewis interrupted him and asked, "Can you get a ticket to leave the port of Enmat?" Of course, I mean a stealthy enough boat that I want to make sure I don't get caught by the gangsters. ”
He referred to the person on the boat as himself, which would make Miss Stephanie a little safer, after all, few fools would put their minds on the transcendent.
The detective rubbed his forehead, pondered for a moment, and said, "There is indeed an Intis cargo ship that will pass through here, but it will take a few days, this ship will be destined for Intis and will stop on the island near Rune." ”
"I want to know the exact time, and I will pay a certain fee." Lewis hurriedly finalized the matter.
The detective in front of him should have something to do with the official Intis ship, and the freighter may also be the official ship of the Intis official, which can largely ensure the safety of Miss Stephanie.
Knowing when the freighter arrived, Lewis chatted with the detective about what happened two years ago, but every time he mentioned key information, the other party kept it silent, which made Lewis realize what information the other party must be hiding.
"This detective must have come to Rune not just to investigate a missing businessman."
Thinking of this, Lewis suddenly asked, "Mr. Detective, what is your faith?" ”
"Yes...... Storm, storm above! As he spoke, the detective made a prayer gesture that belonged to the Lord of the Storm.
Lewis smiled indifferently, this prayer seemed to be more layman than he praised the goddess......
