When surprise appeared on Arthur's face, and then became solemn, Cibron could no longer hold back.

Because, the sheriff of Garshan Town, faintly felt that something that looked like a finger and a claw was approaching his neck.

"It's not me!"

"The disappearance of that merchant line had nothing to do with me - I had some idea of them, but when I arrived with someone, there was no one there!

Walker, Crick can testify to me! ”

As he spoke, the sheriff looked at the other two fourth-class officers.

The two fourth-class police officers immediately nodded their heads again and again, and their eyes were also full of horror.

At this moment, when the [Hand of Nothingness] faintly approached, they finally knew why Sheriff Cibulon had urinated.

Is this the revenge of the revenant?

The speculation that surged in his heart made the two fourth-level police officers say immediately.

"Yes, when we arrived, there was no one there.

Moreover, the site is very clean.

There was no fight and no blood. ”

Sergeant IV Walker, who doubles as coroner, said.

"Afterwards, I also took people to check the surroundings and found nothing, neither drag marks nor footprints – it had just rained heavily and I remember it very clearly."

Another fourth-class constable, who is also a deputy sergeant, Crick, added.

Immediately afterward, some of the patrol officers also spoke.

You cobbled together the 'disappearance' of the merchant team three years ago for Arthur.

Observe the expressions of these people carefully.

Even without the need for [Eyes Like Torches] and [Words and Eyes], Arthur could confirm that these people were not lying.

Under the intimidation of 'revenge of the dead', these people even have to tell what color their bottoms are.

As for the Jiaershan Town Police Department, everyone was involved in what happened three years ago?

Arthur was not surprised by this.

A merchant army that doesn't live in the town and camps outside the town seems to anyone to be a fat sheep with a rare opportunity, but this fat sheep has horns.

A team of 20 people must still have weapons, but they can't be eaten casually.

And in order to eat this team, the people of the Jiaershan Town Police Station must all take action.

Similarly, it is precisely because of the rarity of the opportunity that it is rare, so Arthur did not specifically refer to the merchant team of three years ago, but directly replaced it with a merchant.

And if the caravans disappear one after another?

Impossible.

If the caravan disappeared one after another, it was not at all that the sheriff of Jiaershan Town could suppress the matter.

With the importance that the Count of Nanlos attached to taxation, he had already sent the 'Imperial Minister' to investigate the matter.

'The people at the police station are not directly related to the caravan's disappearance, which means that the caravan's disappearance may be related to the 'Ymir Manor'.

Plus the three 'mediums' who died, and the 'curse' for so many years......

Things are getting interesting. ’

Arthur thought this in his heart, but there was nothing unusual in his expression.

He remained serious, and said—

"Prepare me with a salt brick oil sword."

"Huh?"

Cibulon looked dazed.

"Coarse salt, brick powder, kerosene, iron sword."

"Brick powder needs to be ground from the red bricks of people's prosperity, go quickly."

Arthur explained.

If you want to do a play, you have to do a full set.

And, it's also to buy him a little time.

"Go guard the basement entrance."

Arthur commanded Simon, Hunter, and Newt.

After everyone had left, Arthur took control of Fokine and flew to the 'Ymir Manor', which was not located in the town of Garr, but on a mountainside 15 kilometers away, and had to be reached through a narrow mountain stream.

But with Fujin's wings, naturally there is no need to be so troublesome.

With a flap of its wings, it soared into the sky and then pierced the ridge.

With the help of Fokin's eyes, Arthur looked at the crater, and after glancing at the 'Ymir Manor' halfway up the mountainside, he was secretly surprised.

This terrain is too easy to defend and difficult to attack.

It doesn't take much, as long as ten people are sent to guard the entrance of this mountain stream, even hundreds of people can't attack it.

The mountain stream was so narrow that as many people came as many as they could, only 2-3 people passed side by side.

And over a mountain stream?

It can't be either.

The rolling mountains make the surroundings extremely steep.

Arthur vividly remembers that Malinda gave him a report mentioning that the 'Jumir Manor' was built by Fritz for his wife Ymir.

'Shouldn't you choose a beautiful place to build?'

Why does it feel like a military fortress is being built?

Was it because of the war of the year? ’

Arthur thought to himself, let Forge rise again.

He then confirmed his suspicions.

Looking down from the heights, apart from the mountain stream that leads into the 'Yumir Manor', there are hidden 'outposts' on the walls around it—hidden by moss and stone walls, but not hidden from Fokine's eyes.

Obviously, this place is really a military fortress-like structure.

Then, Arthur suddenly thought of one thing -

After the death of Mr. and Mrs. Fritz Ymir, the 'Umir Manor' was inherited by a distant nephew, who suffered misfortune while climbing the mountain.

The mountain that the other party climbed can't be the mountain around 'Ymir Manor', right? ’

Arthur began to have doubts in his mind at this moment.

Forkine had already begun to fly around the 'Yumir Manor'.

'Ymir Manor' is more dilapidated than expected, the exterior walls of the main building of the manor are covered with plants, the fence gate is full of rust, and the place where the fountain should have been replaced by a large tree - it looks like Arthur is sure that this should have been a fountain before, but after it fell into disrepair and damage, the owner did not repair it, so the big tree was planted.

That's pretty much what it looks like.

What was going on inside, Arthur had no way of knowing.

Moreover, after the accidental death of three 'spirit mediums', it is impossible for him to let Fujin take risks easily - being able to have secret magic props is enough to show that these three 'spirit mediums' are mysterious people and should have something, but these three people died so strangely in the 'Ymir Manor', which is enough to show the danger inside.

Arthur, who was outside the initial reconnaissance, took control of Forge and began to return to the town of Garshan.

On the way back, Arthur also saw four young men he had seen before.

The four young men walked briskly, talking and laughing as they went.

Two men had rabbits and pheasants on their backs.

The two ladies' baskets were also full of wild fruits and vegetables.

Obviously, the four of them have achieved well.

The joy of harvest made the four people who returned more and more happy.

With a glance, Arthur withdrew his gaze.

After informing Fokine of the alert, Arthur's consciousness returned to the morgue in the basement of the police station, and he picked up the kerosene he had sent earlier, preparing to burn the 'cursed things' of the three 'mediums' first.

Kerosene gurgled out.

When the match fell, the flames flew straight up.

The flickering brilliance of the flames made the young medium's eyes squint.

Then, the young 'psychic' thought of something-

Wrong!

Wrong!

That scene just now is not right!
