In order to hide his eyes, Wright waited at home until midnight.

At this point in time, most of the people in Harbour City were already asleep. Wright then took Unika and hurried out of the grocery store.

At this time, the fog had reached its thickest time of the day, and Wright carried her directly on his back in order to prevent Yunica from being lost.

The two of them kept moving forward in the silence of Harbour City, and although Wright's perception was superb, the night and thick fog were still very challenging.

Fortunately, Unika grew up in Harbour City since she was a child, and she started as a police officer patrolling the streets, so she has long been familiar with the routes in the city.

Under her guidance, Wright ran a lot of unjust roads, and came to a slum gathering in the lower city without any problems.

Although the upper city was full of dignitaries, nobles and wealthy merchants also had their own circles.

And in the lower city, of course, the same is true.

These fishermen, such as those who fish in fishing ports, can also be regarded as a group with good incomes.

But Wright didn't expect that the place where they lived was so shabby, it was simply a lower city in a lower city.

"Where did all the money they earned go?"

"I don't know...... Fishermen fishing in the harbor, fishing boats are better than houses, that is a common thing. ”

For Unica's words, Wright was convinced.

Through the thick fog and night, the two walked through the many small and dilapidated houses. After searching for a long time, I finally found the house where old John was.

"Be careful."

Wright quietly entered the house with Unity, the old man lived alone, and there was no one else in the house except him, which made Wright and the others worry.

"It's about the same distance, then I'll blow it."

Unica found a suitable position, took the conch handed by Wright, took a deep breath and blew softly.

With the arrival of the breath, the mermaid song in the conch slowly came out, and Old John's sleeping expression suddenly relaxed, and it seemed that the song had worked.

Ding, ding, ding, ding! Ding, ding, ding, ding!

Just when Wright thought it could be done, a wind chime suddenly sounded in the room, startling the two of them.

Wright's eyes were quick, and he took Unica in his arms and flew to the roof, and used the means of extracting the light elemental to envelop the two in the darkness.

Sure enough, old John rolled over and sat up, looking around sleepily.

When he found nothing, he lay back down.

Wright was speechless: "Hiss...... What's the situation, why did the wind chimes ring just now? I didn't feel the wind! ”

Yunica replied in a whisper, "I...... I've heard about it. Some fishing boats that go fishing in the ocean will have some similar wind chimes hanging on them.

If there is a special storm or a strange phenomenon, the wind chimes will warn you.

Maybe this thing also reacts to the mermaid's song.

After all, for sailors who go to sea, mermaids are also monsters that can kill people. ”

"It's such a troublesome thing, you hold me......"

"Huh?"

"I'm going to get rid of this wind chime."

"Oooh!"

Yunica rolled over and hugged Wright, resting her head on his shoulder.

Wright freed up a hand, and after summoning the Holy Law Ring, he cast an ice magic spell and directly froze the entire wind chime.

After succeeding, he waved his arms around Yunica and slowly fell back to the opposite side.

"Alright, you can spread your hands."

Yunica was stunned for a moment, and then let go of her arms and legs.

"Blow it."

"Hmm!"

Yunica walked over to the bed, and suddenly turned back again.

"Well, why didn't we land down and freeze the wind chimes again?"

"Uh...... Don't care about these details, hurry up and blow it! ”

Yunica came to the bed again, picked up the conch and blew it again. Gladys's singing voice is melodious and beautiful, and this time the wind chimes did not come to make trouble.

Old John stretched all over his body and soon fell for it.

"Lightlight, all right!"

"Uh-huh! You ask, I'll add. ”

Yunica nodded and leaned over to the bedside, "Uncle John?" ”

Although Old John didn't open his eyes, he still responded in a daze: "Huh? ”

"How did the fishing village of Highgro not exist?"

Wright almost stumbled: "Guy...... If you ask such a hard question, don't you have some criminal investigation skills? Don't know how to follow the rules? Can you peel off the cocoon and knock on the side?

You wouldn't just poke someone's lung tube during the day and ask questions, would you?

Have you been with Emily for too long, have you been infected by her? ”

Unexpectedly, old John's eyes suddenly welled up with tears.

"Highgro, you are wronged. We are framed! ”

Wright was stunned for a moment: "Did you really ask it?" ”

Yunica hurriedly asked, "Who framed you?" And who flooded the fishing village of Highgro? ”

Old John, in his weeping and sleep, intermittently told a story that made people feel chilled all over his body.

Highgro, a small fishing village next to the Harbour City of Kredrus. But it has existed for several times longer than the Harbour City of Credrus.

This small old fishing village has had little contact with the outside world.

They are isolated from the rest of the world and retain the oldest rituals of faith and sacrifice.

They worship the sea, and they don't think that there is a god in charge of everything.

They believe that the sea is the sea, and the sea itself is great enough.

They worship to the sea, with great devotion and have been passed down to this day.

Under the protection of the sea, they are rich all year round, and there are almost no casualties when they go out to fish. The village is low-lying and has never been flooded.

If it weren't for that accident, this small fishing village would probably have been so happy forever.

But that day, a group of strangers came to the small fishing village.

The leader is none other than the lord of Crudrus Harbour City. And among their team, there were also the captain of the Guardian Legion of Harbour City at that time, and several magicians with hoods.

They brought with them a great deal of treasure, as well as novelties that the villagers had never seen before.

They told these fishermen how beautiful the outside world was, and how noisy the outside world was.

They are willing to buy everyone's fish, and they are more willing to open up a trade route, build a wharf in the fishing village, and increase the communication between the fishing village and the outside world.

The old villagers were very resistant to these people, but the magicians and warriors in their ranks were very strong.

Under the deterrence of force, the villagers of the older generation dared not speak out.

However, the younger generation in the village is very yearning for the world depicted by these outsiders.

These strangers stayed in the fishing village for a long time, and they spent a lot of money to buy many things that were useless to them, and they also left a lot of novelty and books about the outside world.

After they left, the village chief at that time immediately organized people to gather all the things left by these strangers and burned them to ashes.

The village chief forbade everyone to talk about the outside world, let alone anyone to leave the village.

However, once the gap of desire is opened, it will breed and spread uncontrollably.

Soon, there were fugitives in the village.

Although this person was arrested, it has become a fact that the hearts of the people in the village are fluctuating.

The village chief was furious and killed the fugitive with great cruelty.

This is the first time in this village that its own villagers have been executed.

However, this draconian approach did not stop the villagers from fleeing.

More and more people are leaving the village, and it's almost a trend.

Even if someone chose to stay, they stopped focusing on fishing and started doing business with Harbour City.

It was also at that time that the fresh fish in the fishing village of Haigro became popular in Harbour City and became a tourist feature.

The small fishing village, which was once an independent village, has gradually become the same as other surrounding fishing villages, and there is nothing special about it.

Everyone originally thought that this was the inevitability of development.

Until one day, the village chief called everyone in the village together.

"The sea, it's going to be angry."

The old village chief said, "Let's go, this village will cease to exist."

We have broken our oath, we have betrayed Him, and now He is coming to take revenge on us.

Get out of here and don't come back.

In the future, don't engage in anything related to the sea. Because the sea will not give any more gifts.

Let's go! Before high tide, get out of here. ”

At first, everyone didn't take it seriously, they just thought that the old village chief was too angry and said angry words.

But soon, it became clear that something was not quite right.

The tide of the sea, unprecedented agitation. In addition, the fishing village was already low-lying and was quickly submerged.

Fortunately, every family here has fishing boats, so they did not fall with the village.

With great difficulty, everyone left the fishing village and docked in the harbor city.

After going ashore, I found that everyone had escaped, but the village chief was nowhere to be found.

Some people turned back to look for the village chief, but never returned.

At this time, everyone realized that the village chief was not joking if he didn't let everyone go back.

When they arrived in Harbour City, the city lord's attitude was not as enthusiastic as it had been. It was hastily arranged their lodgings and the opening of a fishing port.

The people from the fishing village of Hagro have no other means of making a living, so they still make a living from fishing.

But they were once invincible in the sea, but their fishing is no longer as smooth as before.

And their fishing gear will always be inexplicably damaged.

I finally made money from fishing, and in the blink of an eye, I would use it to repair the fishing gear of fishing boats.

They are struggling to make ends meet, and although they are hungry every day, they can't save any money.

It was as if there was a being in the underworld, the Cursed One, who would never be able to profit from the sea again.

After listening to Old John, Wright and Unica fell silent.

This story sounds like a story of a village that is deeply favored by the sea, fails to live up to the blessings of the sea, and finally suffers retribution.

Lightmore rubbed his chin: "It feels like someone has a pet cat, and it's good to eat and drink." But this cat does not know what to do, and has been bewitched by a wild cat, and has to yearn for freedom outside.

When it was fine, it ran out, not only taking out the good things given by its owner, but also bringing dead rats and smelly socks to the house.

Finally, its original owner couldn't bear it anymore and swept it out of the house, and since then it has been displaced from place to place, and the tragic story of eating the last meal without the next meal? ”

Yunica frowned: "It was originally a good story, how did it become ...... after you processed it like this?"

"It became easy to understand! I know, you don't have to praise me. ”

Wright looked at the sleeping old John: "In other words, the wildcat is the lord of Harbor City." Then why did he spend so much money and so much energy to build a small fishing village?

What is he trying to do?

Just that idea can't be found?

Moreover, how many magicians are there in his team?

What are you doing with so many magicians in a fishing village that doesn't pose a threat?

A small harbor city lord, where did he come from such a big force to hire so many magicians to work for him? ”

Yunica shook her head in annoyance: "Instead of dwelling on this, I'm more curious about what kind of existence is the [He] in the old village chief's mouth."

What does the fishing village of Highgroh really do in His eyes?

Raising a village of people like this, for generations and years. Could it be true that you are a pet?

Those outsiders tried their best to sow discord in the village, and eventually caused the destruction of the fishing village.

I guess it's for [Him], right? ”

Wright groaned slightly: "It seems that I have to ask Mr. City Lord." ”

Yunika said, "I think I should look at the ruins of the fishing village." ”

"Anyway, it's not too early, let's go back first, and then think about it in the long run!"
