What a crushing day.
After traveling for several days in a row, everyone was a little tired when they returned to Polnia. They finally got back to their residence before the sun set. When the old landlord saw Jiang Chenchuan coming back, he was so moved that he burst into tears and handed over a This month’s utility bill.
After settling the account, Jiang Chenchuan returned to this temporary space with his luggage, relieved his burden, and took a shower.
The incident in Goat Town came to an end, and Rena returned to the Black Hat Hotel with the information. The warm water flowed down her hair, and the scar on her chest seemed to extend a little further.
After taking a shower, I returned to the bedroom. As soon as I lifted the quilt and lay down, I heard a rapid knock on the door.
"Don't sleep, Evel, something big has happened!"
When he opened the door, he saw a man he didn't recognize standing outside.
Wearing a museum work uniform, he showed his work ID card, which stated that he was a handler of the second team. When he saw Jiang Chenchuan at home, he rushed in without explanation, forced Jiang Chenchuan to wear a coat and took him away.
Their destination was a monitoring station of the museum on Brad Street. It was hidden beside a busy street. It had a hidden entrance that went up to the second floor. The light shone through the stained glass and shed colorful light all over the place. There were very few people. Know this place.
Jiang Chenchuan was like a workhorse who had worked overtime for several days in a row and was forced to work at his desk by his colleagues. He stood in front of the monitoring instrument screen with a tired and helpless look on his face, which was full of green numbers.
However, he had no idea what that meant.
"Five days ago, the patrol airship was cruising at night. When it passed our area, the value of the relic monitor fluctuated, so we reported the situation to the museum."
The staff at the monitoring site passed by with coffee and explained the reason for calling them here.
"The museum sent the second team and the third team to jointly investigate and determined that the relic of serial number 7 was responsible for the change in the value."
The colleague who dragged Jiang Chenchuan up from his sleep added on the side with a sad look on his face. If it hadn't been for the uncertainty of the status of the relics and the lack of manpower, he wouldn't have called out Jiang Chenchuan who was on vacation.
"What about the range?"
Jiang Chenchuan asked.
"It's impossible to be sure. The monitoring site roughly gave several locations, but investigators didn't find any relics."
The most painful part of every investigation is the uncertainty of the relic, or the location will change if there is already a user.
"Any suspects?"
"It stands to reason that this information was told to us by investigators, but the strange thing is that this time..."
His colleague hesitated to speak.
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Chenchuan, who realized something was wrong, asked quickly.
Everyone's expressions were very serious. The relics are items with special powers. The relics in the first six sequences are generally difficult to be found by people, or they are evil relics that are not very harmful and can only be eliminated by the investigators. .
Therefore, a large number of awakened persons with insufficient combat power will become investigators of various processing teams in the museum.
"Our investigators have been missing since yesterday."
This means that those colleagues who went to investigate are likely to have been killed.
With a long sigh, the colleague said this matter seriously. Red dots kept popping up on the mechanical map, and the values beside them were constantly changing. The warning appeared and disappeared, and then appeared again in the next place.
"According to feedback from other personnel, the last place he appeared was here."
As he said that, his colleague clicked on the map. The most conspicuous building there was the burned... Dawn Cathedral.
For some reason, the figure of that man appeared in his mind. Jiang Chenchuan stood up suddenly, picked up his cane and walked out.
"Evel, where are you going?"
"Go investigate."
After saying these words, Jiang Chenchuan left. His colleagues looked at each other, completely clueless.
The values on the screen are still changing, and the red dot lights up and disappears. As long as the Heyman counting alarm does not sound and pollution does not appear, it is safe.
"Old man, I think these broken instruments can be updated. Every time a relic appears, I can't even locate the specific target."
"That depends on Atlas Alchemy Institute. I heard that someone in the Mechanical Department is already working on a portable monitor."
"I hope everything goes well this time."
…
first timing,
Jiang Chenchuan thought of Dawn Church.
That was the tragedy left behind by the Goat Town incident. Still remembering the man's painful confession that night, it was not so heinous.
Now that I think about it, there is a high probability that there is some relic on his body, and it has been severely corroded.
So the most important thing right now is
Just find that man!
"Isn't this Mr. Ivel?"
A familiar voice sounded, and he turned his head. Thomas was rummaging for some information in the bookstore, and happened to see Jiang Chenchuan walking out of the surveillance station.
"Exactly, where is Ethan?"
Jiang Chenchuan suddenly thought of someone who could give him some help.
"You're looking for me?"
Ethan leaned lazily to the side. No one noticed his existence until he said nothing. It was hard to imagine that some crazy things would happen to a person with such a low sense of existence.
Jiang Chenchuan briefly told him the current situation, and automatically skipped the content about the museum, asking him why he appeared here again for no reason even though he had returned home.
"In other words, you want to find the fake Father Louis?"
"right."
The sky outside slowly darkened.
"This is not simple. The Dawn Church has organized a rally tonight. Almost all the church believers in Polnia will rush to participate, and Father Louis will most likely be present."
Ethan said matter-of-factly.
Only Thomas, who was listening next to him, muttered in a low voice:
“Despicable and peaceful people.”
"This is not called despicable, this is called mastering the enemy's situation."
I heard that among the four major churches, the Peace Church has the most complicated situation, probably because of its belief in three gods, which is in sharp contrast to a single belief.
The other three major churches do not seem to be very friendly to believers of the Peace Church.
"When does the rally start?"
Ethan looked at the clock hanging on the wall. During the time they were talking, the sky outside turned completely dark, and the lights on the street lit up one by one, like stars twinkling in the night sky.
"About half an hour later, but that place is far away. It takes an hour to get there by tram."
I have a vague premonition, probably because I am familiar with the darkness, and I always feel that something will happen tonight.
"That's too late."
Jiang Chenchuan grabbed his cane and was about to walk out. Before taking two steps, Ethan stretched out his hand to stop him.
"No, if you have time, I will take you there,
Should be able to catch up! "
