After the release of "Voices of Freedom", there were many more professionals in Liberty City.

They came by sea or from the Empire to help, but inadvertently caused a lot of trouble in the city.

For example, the rudeness of a warrior, the arrogance of a mage, the ranger who likes to climb over walls, and the thief who can't control his hands.

Dean Brehim, who sits in Liberty City, has made many troubles disappear, crime, trouble, theft, and crowds of people to defecate everywhere...... The most dangerous one was the near outbreak of the plague. Fortunately, the hygienic traditions of Liberty City strangled the plague in its cradle.

I don't want to admit it, but in the magical world where the power of power is its own, the deterrent power of the musketeers depends on the deterrent power of Liberty City—they are the dog that beats the dog and depends on the owner.

Although some veterans have killed more nezumi than they have ever seen.

Annan had no choice but to ask Ingrid to make some manuals and distribute them to every professional and mercenary who set foot in the temporary port. At the very least, let them know that personal hygiene and public health are maintained.

At the end of the day, there wasn't much to do in Liberty City that needed a professional to do—Annan wanted the warriors to carry the wood, the mages to stir up the cement, and the bards to cheer them up, but they wouldn't. Only when the rangers and thieves were entrusted with harassing the mad dog archduke, they happily agreed.

If only the Elemental Legion were still around......

"Brass beard! How long will it take for my alborcosus! Annan ran to the blacksmith and asked the dwarf.

"Do you think orichalum is good for shaping?" Brass whiskers complain about how hard it is for the strongest of materials to deform —

"Why don't we have our seller send us a bouquet of oralcum flowers?"

Copper Whisker was stunned for a moment: "Why ......?"

Knowing what to do, Copperbeard ran back to prepare, and Annan thought that the hard work of these days was finally coming to fruition.

Liberty City, which was crowded with people from the Mad Dog Grand Duke, was also barely back on track. With the end of the war in the future, Ingrid expected that there should be 30,000 to 40,000 inhabitants left in the city, and one Annan was too little, but Olmedo felt that the number was just right.

And Olmedo also thinks it's better to put some threshold on residency - free things will just not be cherished, and it's unfair to those who follow Middle-earth from the North but leave in Typhoon Shelter Town.

Don't forget that Starmoon Bay and Breeze City evacuated hundreds of thousands of residents scattered across Middle-earth. With the promotion of the magical newspaper, they will eventually find out about Liberty City and rush to it.

Annan took the suggestion, and because of the war, Liberty City had not had time to plan for many things.

One glaring problem, for example, is that none of the streets in Liberty City have a name so far. Even the most prestigious seaside streets are modest "coastal streets".

But naming is not what Annan is good at. He only perfunctorily named the street in front of the city lord's mansion "Xingyue Street" to commemorate the first territory that was lost to Ingrid.

With Liberty City on track, their counteroffensive is on the agenda.

The Mad Dog public rebelled, his mages and knights retreated to the south of the principality, and the nobles behind him withdrew their support, and the heirs who were frightened by the Mad Dog Grand Duke also jumped out - among them, Giraldi was the loudest and had the most supporters.

The magic newspaper has a far more impact on people than the bard in the tavern.

When the Ranger and the Thieves bring back the news that the Mad Dog Grand Duke is in the Overwatch and there are not many guards around him, Olmedo summons Fermi's Hellfire and tells them to attack the Overwatch.

Before setting out, they travel to the Immortal's Sleeping Ground for good luck, and are surprised to learn that the cemetery has been haunted lately......

The first to be noticed were refugees who were crowded on the streets and ran to the cemetery to rest. They encounter all sorts of pranks, at first they think they are naughty children, but they turn out to be naughty ghosts......

On the night of the Hellfire, Annan and Alice crept into the cemetery and saw a group of pale silhouettes that looked like smoke and bubbles floating around the cemetery.

"Their souls have gone to hell, their bones are so purified that even dogs are chasing them, why are there still ghosts?" Annan was puzzled.

Alice says it was their will that formed the haunted land.

"Do they still know me?"

"It shouldn't be ......"

Annan has entered the cemetery, and the results are ...... Even he is on the list of pranks.

Alice watched as Annan was chased by ghosts running around, running out of the cemetery, and they didn't chase anymore, returning to their usual laziness.

"It's easy to expel them."

"No, don't expell."

Who would be afraid of the heroic spirits who have protected this city?

At this time, Annan saw Lily walking with a cat from not far away, followed by a silly cat.

The ghosts who drove away the living at sight gathered around Lily and the silly cat, caring for them as if they were guarding them.

But Lily and Silly Cat can, because they're cute.

Annan and Alice didn't interrupt their playtime and returned to the City Lord's Mansion.

The next day, an unexpected guest visits the City Lord's Mansion - the witch Claire has returned.

"Where's your brother?" Annan joked.

After only a few days of not seeing her, Claire became taciturn, her complexion was much paler, and her dark gray eyes looked at Annan without emotion.

"What's wrong with you?"

Annan guessed that she had an argument with her brother?

The maid Abby came in with the silly cat in her arms, and Annan turned back and said, "Prepare some hot soup for our guests." ”

"Meow ——!"

The silly cat suddenly jumped out of the arms of the maid Abby, and confronted Claire with her fur.

Annan has never seen a stupid cat so intense......

"Where's your cat?" Annan suddenly realized something.

Claire loves cats, and her white cat never left her, but now that white cat is gone......

"My ...... Cat ......"

Claire's unsparkling eyes reflected the silly cat, and suddenly a trace of struggle flashed: "Kill ...... I. ”

Dela, who was the first to notice something was wrong, leapt out of the shadows behind her, her sharp dagger sliding towards her neck.

"It's too late......"

A helpless sigh suddenly sounded in everyone's ears.

Claire's forehead cracked a slit, and with a crystal sparkle, the once beautiful cheek opened to the sides, and a scarlet demon eye appeared.

"Quick, look outside!"

Amid the exclamation of the maid Abby, Annan looked out the window.

The world outside the window was suddenly enveloped in a frenzied and strange scarlet, the color of blood seemed to come from the depths of the sky, and the people in the street stopped what they were doing, raised their heads, and then were seized by the indescribable throbbing of their hearts.

In the depths of the sky, a large, deep scarlet eye looked down on the entire city, diffusing a maddening evil aura.
