Chapter 354
Two days later.
A cruise ship bound for Golden Harbor.
The sky is cloudy.
The howling and frigid sea breeze is like a hard knife on the face.
The waves are rough.
Holding two of the latest newspapers, Cole leaned against the railing on the ship's side, scanned the newspapers, tightened his coat, and browsed tightly knit.
'After a lapse of one hundred and forty-seven years, another witch rally occurred in the empire! '
'History is rare. Three Judgement Echelon demon-hunter were urgently recalled to Imperial Capital! '
'The Demon Hunt Group suffered heavy casualties! The number of civilians killed has soared! '
'Great Empire exclusive news, Baruch Lennon Butler, permanent director of the Demon Hunter, whereabouts unknown to this day, suspected of being hijacked by a witch! '
'Frontline headlines: The true identity of the Dark Crow Witch has been determined, Captain, the former executive group of the Mengxi Imperial Family Demon Hunting Group, the head of the investigation section of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Penny Seranda. '
'...'
Maybe the event has really developed to the point where it is out of control. It adds up to more than ten pages of newspapers, and it is rare that there is no lace news. , Or sensational scraps.
Hardy stood on the side, frowning tightly into the word'chuan', raised his head, spit out a big mouth of turbid smoke, and said, "Boss, I mean if...
If you didn’t find the master behind all of this, and then you were stabbed to death by Martha’s coin pool.
The fleet of the Imperial Navy, now, is it possible, has opened to Baiyue Freeport? Now?"
Even if the little guy is not very sensitive to politics and power.
But this kind of thing, it is clear that Baiyue’s spies, after infiltrating the empire, were bought by some interest groups. Cole Walker, the empire’s demon-hunter special event handling minister, had long been premeditated. Assassination.
Even.
The gathering of Seranda and the witch will be counted on the White Moon Republic.
A large-scale all-out hot war is about to start.
Up to now, the context of everything has become clear.
But think of it here.
Hardy couldn't help but feel a chill in his back.
The greedy Martinus, that bastard, not only wanted to kill Cole and try to take his soul, but also wanted to dominate him, making him watch the full-scale war between the two powers.
The friends of the past have also fallen into witches and slaughtered mortals.
Even the demon-hunter he admired most in his life, Cole · Walker, by the strength of oneself, forcibly reversed it, and almost got out of control and conspiracy.
After returning home.
There is another thing he needs to face.
The Dark Crow Witch, Penny · Seranda.
Although Hardy has long been accustomed to the cruel reality faced by the demon-hunter, but thinking about it, if one day, Marianne suddenly falls and becomes a witch.
He has no idea how to deal with this kind of thing.
Sighed secretly in my heart.
It’s no wonder that big devil cases are usually handed over to the great character of Judgement Echelon. Those vicious bastards are more than ordinary dark creatures.
I know what is called: killing and punishing the heart.
Cole folded the newspaper in his hand, threw away the cigarette butt, frowned, "Never undervalue oneself, Hardy.
If I die in Griegal town, you And Baruch will investigate this case."
Suddenly praised by the boss.
The little man gave an awkward laugh, flicked the cigarette butt, and followed Cole into the cabin.
In the case of Griegl Town, after Martha Sterling self-destructed as the descendant of the Desperate Witch, the investigation and handling process went very smoothly.
The devil possession case is just a means by the greedy Martinus of the big devil to distract investigators.
On this basis.
They and Karadok spent half a day to find the culprit who caused the abnormal situation in the town.
It was an antique vase that the male owner of the Griegall family bought in the hands of a strange man more than twenty days ago.
Break the vase.
There is an interlayer made of human skin with dense blasphemy symbols drawn with blood on it.
After Cole used the blood flame to burn it, all the residents of the town who were sent to the lunatic asylum returned to normal except for a few seriously injured.
Everything they experienced during the period was like a nightmare that could not be awakened.
As for the male owner of the Grigel family, he was taken away by Karadok for investigation.
Nine hours later.
January 13, 1836.
At seven ten in the morning.
On the wharf of the port of Golden Harbor, there is a grim young man with blond hair and blue eyes wearing a valuable black woolen coat.
Leaning on the door of a black Horch battleship that has been out of print and priced at four thousand pounds.
The sea breeze blowing in the morning.
The smoke and dust of cigarettes drifted away in the wind.
Beep--
The sound of the siren before the cruise ship docked, sounded in the depths of the sea fog out of sight.
The sky in the distance.
The morning glow before dawn is slightly red.
Until a steel cruise ship, bathed in the rays of light, slowly docked at the pier.
Afterwards.
The blond young man got on the car and started the engine.
Four black high level sedans with Mengxi Imperial Family Royal Family Demon Hunter license plates, follow closely from behind.
In the surprised eyes of the dock workers and passengers.
The police car cleared the road, unimpeded all the way.
Until the blond youth among the many tourists, he saw the man who had been waiting here for an hour.
His eyes pass through the crowded crowd.
Wave a hand said with a smile, "You are finally back, Lord Minister."
Hardy's gaze swept across the crowds of demon in black uniforms behind Carl. -hunter.
Then stared and looked up from head to toe, standing in front of him at the moment, the former playboy, dumbfounded for a moment, was surprised, "Karl Hems?! God, I thought you I’m still recuperating in the hospital.
Your hand..."
Carl raised the prosthesis on his left arm, took out the black leather gloves on it, and moved the fingers of the mechanical structure. , Said with a smile, "You mean this?
For the blessing of Minister Walker.
Ms. Grace’s tailor-made prosthesis for me, the only drawback may be that there are some Expensive.
The situation is urgent, we said in the car."
After getting in the car.
Carl and Cole, who haven’t seen them for a long time, sit in the back row.
Handing over a document, it seems that I cannot face this cruel reality so far, and said in a heavy tone, "Cole, I will never forget.
For Nisius · During Franco’s internal investigation, Miss Seranda, the firm will and fear of sacrifice that I admire so far.
But..."
Speaking of which.
Perhaps thinking of the female demon-hunter who admires him and regards death as home, the comrade-in-arms who had had Life and Death Friends with him, suddenly fell into a witch.
This kind of painful reality is really hard for him to accept.
Carl closed his eyes slightly, took a deep breath, and then said, "Now she is not just the Dark Crow Witch who fell voluntarily after being Devouring Soul by the darkness.
According to the sacrifice The Witch Emergency Department, Minister Lysa’s last words.
Seranda not only broke free from the bondage of a powerful devil, but...second only to those ancient witches who could not directly call their names Extraordinary power at the second flight of steps level.
It is very likely that before the fall, she has encountered some things that cannot be found out now."
I heard the Minister of Emergency Witch News of his death.
Hardy, who was sitting in the front row, turned around and said in a shocked tone, "Carl, wait! You just now, Minister Lysa Sias in the lower slaughter sequence, actually died. ?!"
