When I woke up, it was already afternoon.
Frey placed the two people who could not walk in a hotel near Houhai Hill. Compared with the Adventurer's House, it was like heaven and earth. It had wooden floors, plaster walls, down quilts, and the bed was so soft that it made people feel uncomfortable. I don't want to get up when I lie down.
But Peter got up anyway because he was really hungry.
Frey thoughtfully asked the hotel kitchen to prepare food and left a card on the bedside table, asking the two to find him after they had rested.
After a night of fierce fighting, Peter felt like he could eat a cow.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Peter was the only one in the hotel restaurant, eating and eating like a starving ghost reincarnated.
At this moment, Harry, with dark circles under his eyes, rushed into the restaurant, with a thoughtful and frightened expression on his face, and shouted to Peter:
"There's something wrong with that evil spirit!!!"
Peter, who was munching on the roast chicken, looked up: "Oh, you're awake? I thought you would sleep until tomorrow."
“There’s something wrong with that evil spirit!!!”
"Do you want to eat or not?"
Peter handed over a chicken drumstick.
"No, now is the time to eat? That evil spirit named Galen... No, that dead soul, I'm afraid there is something hidden behind it -"
"Stop, stop, stop."
Peter stuffed a chicken drumstick into his mouth and blocked his mouth.
"Are you trying to say that the origin of the deceased souls in the Earl's family is not simple?"
Harry nodded.
Peter burped and slumped in his chair.
"Come on, find an excuse to push this task off. For example, there is a change in the family, an elder is hospitalized, a child has a fever, etc. Learn how novel writers ask for leave, prevaricate it, and let the count come back to solve the matter by himself. Then we will Stop getting involved."
Harry was stunned and asked in confusion: "Why?"
"I can memorize the subsequent developments. Oh, you want me to investigate him with you. With Galen's skills, he was definitely famous during his lifetime. After finding out his identity, we can investigate why Galen appeared in the Earl's house. In the mansion, I immediately started to investigate the case, peeling off the cocoon, trying to find a way to eliminate Galen and the conspiracy behind Galen, and finally got the gratitude of the earl, and from now on I was connected with the big shot, and I became prosperous in the future?"
Harry pulled the chicken leg out of his mouth and said blankly: "I didn't think much about it..."
"Use your brain, what kind of monster do you think this evil spirit is?"
"I was just about to tell you that he is not an evil spirit at all. He must be the soul of a strong man. His soul is incredibly strong -"
Harry's face showed lingering fear: "He actually used Necromantic Alchemy to fight all night! It's so crazy, the dragon's soul couldn't bear to use it like this, and even in the end he still had complete reason to communicate with us... He must have undergone some kind of forbidden magic transformation before his death, and it must have been done by those warlocks from the Northern Continent, barbarians who desecrated the dead."
As Harry talked, he also started to eat. After all, he was also hungry.
"Then what do you think the cost of this kind of human body modification is?"
"Well..." Harry thought for a moment, "To transform the soul to this extent, at least a magician is required to preside over the ceremony. As for the price, it is certainly not low. The magic materials related to the soul are extremely valuable. He To this extent, I’m afraid even ancient relics have been used.”
"Then do you think that a soul that has been transformed by expensive manpower and material resources will appear in the earl's house out of thin air?" Peter looked at him as if he were an idiot. "Then he is encountered by the butler and invites a bunch of adventurers to attack him. , round after round, and then it’s our turn?”
Harry was stunned. He thought about it and his expression became serious.
"Peter, then...how strong do you think he would have been in combat during his lifetime?"
"If you were a little more powerful than the necromantic alchemist in life, I'm afraid that would be the limit of human beings. Your skills are on par with mine, maybe a little worse than mine, but not by much..."
Harry listened quite seriously at first, but when he heard that the skills were about the same, he looked questioningly.
"Believe it or not. I'm afraid he was really a big shot during his lifetime. At least in the profession of knight, there are not many people better than him."
"I think so." Harry nodded, blaming his magic for Peter's tie.
There is no doubt about Galen's strength.
If Peter didn't have Harry's support, he would definitely be killed by Chu Jian.
With the blessing of necromantic alchemy, that guy's power is close to the limit of the strength attribute, and the same is true for his speed.
In the game, this is a level 90 or above knight panel.
And his skills are sophisticated enough. If a Knight player with 500 hours of game time can clear the Demon King without taking any damage, Galen will have at least a 150-hour clearance level.
But if an enemy of this level is not guarding the Demon King's City, how can it appear in the Novice Village?
"Generally speaking, undead souls are different from evil spirits. Undead souls cannot leave their own remains too far away. Galen's remains are obviously in the Earl's manor, and there is something in the manor that can restore his spiritual power..."
"The manor that has been unoccupied for almost twenty years is still recovering spiritual power. The house has become a spirit?"
"Holy shit," Harry clapped his hands, "Galen was really put in there!"
"But who could it be?"
"It's either Demacia or Noxus." Peter began to speak abstractly again.
"Who didn't tell me first, what is the purpose?"
"What else do you think it could be?" Peter asked him.
"Could it be..." Harlem's breath froze, "Earl?"
Peter shrugged.
"You said this, I didn't."
Peter lowered his voice: "No matter who Galen is who broke into the count's mansion, we should not get involved in this matter. Do you understand? The tool he used to kill the count was killed inexplicably, and we will be better than the count." He must die first! He even dares to kill the earl, can we escape?"
Harry broke into a cold sweat.
No wonder such a powerful ghost is entrenched in the Earl's house. The Adventurers' Guild, the church, the police station, the military and even the top government officials all act as if it has nothing to do with it.
The Adventurers' Guild is full of rotten fish and shrimps. If you ask them for experts, they will say they are short of people. The pastor of the church didn't know what was going on. The military only sent a major. The government and the police station couldn't find this person, and there were no police officers who came to investigate.
This is so abnormal.
If the major and the priest were strong enough, wouldn't they see how strong Galen was? If that's the case, why don't you report it, pay attention to it, and send more manpower?
Is it true that even a master can't find such a huge Aknaits?
"Someone wants to kill the earl..." Harry's pupils trembled.
"Shh." Peter motioned for him to keep his voice down so that the waiter in the restaurant wouldn't hear him.
"It's none of our business anyway. We can't handle it with the housekeeper. It's so tight."
Harry struggled for a moment: "Aren't you going to tell the butler the truth?"
"How do you know he's not a mole?"
Harry fell silent.
"Eating his meal will be the reward for the exhausting work last night." Peter pointed to the sumptuous food on the table, "After you finish, leave as soon as possible."
"Oh, what a pity." Harry expressed regret, "That Earl of Cavendish is still an in-law of our Philippian royal family. If he dies, the Emperor will probably send people to mourn him."
"Wait, what did you say?"
"Ah? He is a relative of the Philippian royal family..."
"No, the previous sentence."
"Um...some high-level officials want to kill the earl?"
Peter slammed the table.
"Damn it, as a spiritual Ron, how can you turn a blind eye to such illegal behavior? Eat quickly! After eating, go investigate the origin of that bullshit Galen. You must rescue the earl, and you will rely on him to become famous in the future!"
Harry was still stuffed with food in his mouth and was at a loss for words.
