The Executor of the Heavens: Beginning with the Watch Dogs

Chapter 782 Annabelle Plague Banshee

Xie Yuan didn't take the magic lamp that can show the state of the soul and body.

Because of his powerful soul power, he can clearly see every move made by the wandering soul wandering in place before dying.

In general, the wandering spirits trapped in the Tower of Rats come from an inevitable tragedy.

The old lord Wesselard's family is a very normal lord and aristocratic family - this "normal" means that he will collect high taxes from the peasants, and at the same time the bulk of the taxes will be handed over to the royal court and human relations. Only a small part is handed over to your own daily expenses.

Although in the eyes of the peasants, the aristocrats devoured their own harvest, and their brains were full of fat.But in the eyes of the nobles, he is actually living a tight life just like the local peasants.

If this model is placed in the Taiping era, there will be no major problems.Although the peasants have been taken over, they still have some food to eat, and they have the strength to continue farming in the land. Although the nobles have a tight inventory, the rewards of many years of human relations can also allow the noble family to maintain a relatively graceful state of mind. decent.

Why is it relative?Because if things were going well, Baron Wesselard's daughter, Annabelle, wouldn't be able to get in touch with Graham, a fisherman, and fall in love with each other in private.

But things quickly changed after the Nilfgaardian invasion - hearing that the Nilfgaardian army was about to attack, nobles from all walks of life took their family money and fled to a safe place, not only did not want to defend their home country, and let its territory fall into the hands of the invaders.

Vesselard was no exception. Most of Velen was his territory, and he had to obey the instructions of the crow's nest, but he and his family fled to the tower on the island of Fek.

On the island, he was completely indifferent to the suffering of the people of Velen, and continued to have fun.He sponsored Alexander, a sorcerer who studied plague and disease, and used the local people of Waylon to conduct plague experiments, resulting in the death of a large number of civilians.

Of course, these "indulgences" are just the imagination of the local people. In fact, Wesselard, who has exploited a large amount of wealth from the people of Wayren, is just enough in terms of food and supplies.

But the already hungry farmers couldn't control this. They took advantage of Graham's idea of ​​elopement with Annabelle and came to the outside of the tower together, and opened the gate.

The lord and his family died in the turmoil during the first wave of contact, but the starving people who were red-eyed couldn't control this, and they climbed up the tall building straight away, planning to vent their anger on Annabe.

That's why Xie Yuan read the thoughts of wandering souls except for the highest one, and understood the story before the formation of the Tower of Rats—it's just strange that these hungry people all died of diseases... and it was a severe disease, which happened very quickly.

This doesn't even feel like a normal plague anymore, it's like plague with magic.

After entering the tower of mice, Xie Yuan found that other than himself, the only real living things here were mice, and in the dark, a distorted figure even ignited the phosphorous fire secretly to guide him to move forward.

The more he went up, Xie Yuan found some souls that appeared after the formation of the mouse tower.These people do not believe in evil, and came to this high tower to take advantage of it and steal things, but unfortunately, a powerful evil spirit was indeed formed here.

So these thieves and rascals were directly killed by the power of evil thoughts.

Walking all the way up, Xie Yuan finally came to the top floor. Through the traces of touching all the year round, Xie Yuan discovered the mechanism leading to the top floor.

With a sound of "click", the wooden secret door leading to the attic opened automatically, and Xie Yuan was able to go up.

The oncoming scenery made Xie Yuan think that he had entered the era of scientific research in the first half of the [-]th century. Experimental receptors were preserved in tubes filled with formalin, and liquid antiseptic tanks stood on both sides. , and what Xie Yuan saw on the side was the soul that had been guiding him.

However, unlike the distorted appearance that guided him before, this soul at this time completely preserved the good looks in front of him.

And unexpectedly, this soul is conscious: "Why did you leave? You clearly said that you love me"

The voice of this soul is sad and pure, clear and gentle: "I'm so cold, why no one came to save me, I can't leave this place, I can't find the exit..."

As soon as the words fell, the soul Annabel noticed that Xie Yuan was staring at her, so she began to respond: "Who are you? Are you here to hurt me too?"

"On the contrary, Miss Annabelle, I have come to liberate you."

Xie Yuan made a knight salute very seriously, then looked at the traces on the ground and analyzed casually: "Obviously, you should have been handed a bottle of fake death medicine by the mage that day... It's really strange that the mage didn't need to give it to himself. During the dispute , you drank the potion that you thought was poison and died, but when you woke up, you found yourself unable to move, so in great fear and pain, you were found to be swallowed by your rats, right?"

"You...how did you know so clearly?!" Annabelle was startled, "You...you just wanted to watch me at the scene—could it be...you were there at that time?!"

"Miss Annabelle is overthinking. I just came from the east of Serikania recently. How could I witness it with my own eyes?"

As he said that, Xie Yuan raised his hand and showed the universal tool: "Actually, this is just a reasonable analysis I made after scanning the entire tower with this magic item to deduce the scene of the accident."

"Good... What a miraculous item." Annabe couldn't help but marvel in her grief.

"However, I want to know more." Xie Yuan changed the subject, "Did Graham betray you? Did he know that you were suspended animation? Why didn't he find you later?"

"No, Graham tried to save me, but there were too many of them." Annabe shook her head sadly. "He yelled 'Don't touch her', but they just laughed..."

"Then is Graham still alive?" Xie Yuan waved his hands around, "Or did he die on Fek Island with the starving people who attacked?"

"Graham...no, he's still alive. If he died, I'd know, but he abandoned me and ran away!" Annabe said at this time, complaining, "Leaving me alone here!"

"Where does Graham live?" Xie Yuan asked peacefully.

"He lives in the fishing village directly across from Feck Island."

"Well, it seems that your death and Graki's resentment for abandoning you made your thoughts linger and formed an evil spirit that was entangled in this high tower, and could not leave the high tower, nor could it be freed."

Xie Yuan looked at Annabe and analyzed calmly: "The root of the curse is likely to be the power of the blood as the heir to the land, or Graham's hate to leave... then as long as you can forgive Graham and let go of your obsession , should be able to lift the curse."

"I... loved him, and if that is the case, I am willing to forgive him, but I must know that he regrets his actions, bring him my bones, and he must bury me, and we shall say goodbye to each other then. "

Annabelle said this, her face was full of hope, "Will you go and tell him? Are you willing to help me with this?"

"Sorry, miss, your bones carry too many evil thoughts. Obviously, you are the most powerful evil spirit entrenched here. If you move your bones rashly, it will only harm the people on the mainland... the hungry people back then harmed your family They died, but they also paid the price with their lives, but most other ordinary people on the mainland are innocent."

Xie Yuan said this, and after rejecting Annabe's proposal, he changed the subject and changed a plan: "I want to try my method, if it doesn't work, I will go find Graham and come to see you, how about it?" ?”

"How do you want to try?!" Annabe's face was suddenly full of hostility, as if she was extremely dissatisfied that Xie Yuan rejected her request.

"Extremely save you!" Xie Yuan put his palms together suddenly and sat cross-legged, his body magnified with light!
"Namo Amitabha Ye..." He emptied his mind, formed the Amitabha seal with both hands, and began to recite the incantation "Rebirth Mantra" used by Buddhists to save the dead.

At this very moment, the majestic light on Xie Yuan's body illuminated the entire dark secret room, and even Annabe's body began to produce light... But in fact, it was more like the soul receiving an invisible flame incineration.

"Ah!!!!" Annabe let out a shrill cry.

With a "bang", Annabe in front of her disappeared, replaced by a demon spirit floating in the air.

She looked like a sick woman, her body was rotting and festering, and a group of rats squeaked out from the corner.

But what is even more unforgettable is the very conspicuous part of this demon spirit - a thick and long tongue.

This is Annabe's true form: the Plague Banshee.

"Yah!!!!" She screamed at Xie Yuan.
