Chapter 42: head-on encounter (1)
Chapter 42 Frontal Encounter (1)
"What happened again?" Viscount Paul pinched the bridge of his nose and asked the butler Laurens who came in to report.
"Master, the body of the homeless man is gone, and... Siladia, who lives with Ginny Will, is dead." Butler Laurence swallowed, as an old man with no extraordinary ability but extraordinary wisdom and experience , He deeply understands what all this means, and the mysterious and unpredictable weirdness has invaded Wilson Castle.
Viscount Paul fell silent for two minutes: "It seems that Ginny Will is the key to this matter, let's lock her up first! Please invite the people from the special bureau to come over at dawn."
However, before dawn, two servants who accompanied Ginny Will during the day were found dead inside the three-story building where the servants lived outside the castle. Immediately after that was the basement of the castle, the person guarding Ginny Will suddenly went crazy, forcibly shoved his head into the middle of the iron railings, and pinched himself to death...
Until Green returned, the entire Wilson Castle was already in danger, and some servants who could not bear the pressure had begun to plan to escape from this noble castle that had been working for many years and was well-treated.
After listening to Vincent's description, Green's face became a little dignified. This is a typical weirdness, and the situation is a little serious.
Green thought for a while and asked, "Where is that maid named Ginny? Take me to see it first."
Vincent nodded. The people from the special bureau came to see it in the morning, but they didn't see anything. They could only wave their hands again and again. Viscount Paul had to go to the Magic Association for help in person. At this time, Vincent was in charge of the castle, and the two went directly to the bottom of the castle and entered the dungeon where the prisoners were held.
Although it is said to be a dungeon, the basement of the castle is not damp and dark, but the basement is illuminated by gas lamps. The so-called dungeon is just a stone room set aside when the foundation was built. In order to facilitate the disposal of errant servants, or the enemy who invaded the castle, it was transformed into a simple cell.
At this time, Ginny Will sat in the corner of the cell with her hair disheveled, her lips kept squirming, but she didn't know what to say, and her mental state was abnormal.
Through the thick iron railing, Green saw the maid who had been graceful not long ago, but now she described it as withered, as if she was a dozen years old, her hair was dry and disheveled, her fingernails were scratched fiercely, and even her fingertips were scratched and bleeding. do not feel.
"This person is finished." Green shook his head. As soon as he came in, he used the vision of death. He saw Ginny Will's body surrounded by a strong black aura, which contained an extremely ominous aura, as if the **** of plague had descended, making people feel uncomfortable. Bad luck, sickness, and depression.
"Love a vicious curse!" Green secretly stunned. From these circumstances, it is not difficult to see that Ginnyville has been hit by some kind of vicious curse. However, generally speaking, using a curse to harm someone has to pay a corresponding price, and it is not something that can be used casually. To deal with a maid in this way is really a bit like using a cannon to hit a mosquito. Obviously this time the real target was not the maid, but the Wilson family and Viscount Paul.
Half an hour later, Viscount Paul came back from the outside with a sullen face. Obviously, this visit to the Wizards Association did not have a satisfactory result.
In the study room of the castle, Green and Vincent sat opposite Viscount Paul across the desk.
Viscount Paul loosened his bow tie and let out a sigh of relief: "Green, I'm very glad that you can come back. In troubled times, people's hearts are unstable. This kind of thing happened in the castle, and even many old people who have served here for decades are also here. Think about the way back. I'm afraid that in a few days, the weirdness will no longer appear, and the authority built by the Wilson family over the years will slowly be exhausted. "
Green nodded. When he was walking in the castle just now, he saw someone whispering more than once, with a tired and frightened look on his face. After tossing for most of the night last night, no one slept well, trembling with fear.
Therefore, when Viscount Paul sighed that "authority is slowly exhausted", he could no longer hide the helplessness and unwillingness in his heart.
This is the reality of this world. In this world, even nobles, powerful officials, and capitalists with billions of wealth, are so powerless in the face of strangeness, which makes Green more clearly aware of the extraordinary power It is the foundation of all rights and wealth.
Like the Wilson family, what a presence in Langton, right! wealth! status! But he was forced into embarrassment by a strange person, and he was helpless.
At this moment, after a hurried knock on the door, Butler Laurens pushed the door in with an ugly face.
Viscount Paul frowned and asked, "What's wrong? What happened again?"
Butler Laurens tried his best to remain calm: "Master, the gardener Gilmot died just now."
"Damn!" Vincent scolded angrily and helplessly when he heard that he was dead again.
Viscount Paul was still calm, and looked at Green with an inquiring look.
Now the strongest fighting force in the castle is Green. The Special Bureau and the Magician Association are either too busy to take care of themselves, or they get hints from above, and they don't want to care about the Wilson family. Now the Wilson family can only count on Green. . Green's strength in saving Lilitha and Penny in a row is enough to gain the respect of Viscount Paul. Even in the eyes of Viscount Paul, Green is more reliable than Wilkins, at least Green still bears the surname Wilson.
Up to now, Green is no longer pretentious, and stands up on his own initiative: "Let me go and take a look."
Seeing Green volunteering, Viscount Paul and Vincent both breathed a sigh of relief. Before Baron Lonanx was killed in a strange way, they still didn't feel it. Now they are in a different place. The pressure of death makes it even more difficult for them. Muster up the courage to face the weirdness.
This is not because Viscount Paul and Vincent have no guts. As noble officers who once served in the Kingdom Knights, even though they retired for many years, they have gained a lot of fat and their fighting spirit has deteriorated a lot, but Viscount Paul's guts and determination are unquestionable, Vincent He is also a very good young nobleman. But the reason why the weird is called weird is because it is unpredictable, and all kinds of magic are incomprehensible, which make people fall into reverie and generate greater fear.
As a magician, Green's own magical power is an ability that ordinary people can't grasp, and through various signs, it is very likely that this strange invading Wilson Castle is a ghost or a ghost-like spirit.
This makes Greene more confident, the ghost eye is this kind of weird nemesis, and it can even be converted into a new ghost.
Green was eager to try, left the study of Viscount Paul, and followed the housekeeper Laurens to the bedroom of the gardener Gilmot...
