Mystery: Beginning with the Warrior Path

Chapter 185
Before the setting sun set, Roman took Emily on the last train to Backlund, and arrived in the luxury first-class carriage.

Even though it was the last bus, it was still full of passengers.

Most of them came back from overseas, and they didn't intend to stay in Pritz Harbor, and returned directly to Backlund.

There are sea merchants doing overseas trade, families returning from travels, and adventurers who went to Backlund from the colonies to make a living, all kinds of people.

Roman and Emily sat opposite each other, telling her about some things he had done in Backlund recently, and occasionally listening to Emily talk about her experiences.

Since the journey was less than an hour, Roman was very relaxed, and described the weird weather in Backlund to Emily with great interest.

For example, now, when the two of them got on the car in Pritz Harbor, they could still see the sunset, but now it was getting dark outside the window, and it started to rain lightly.

Through the glass window, you can see the drizzle on the window, leaving traces.

After a while, Roman frowned, feeling something was wrong...

The rain came too fast. Backlund's weather changes didn't seem to be so extreme before. It was already dark. If Roman didn't have night vision ability, he might not be able to see clearly out of the window or inside the carriage.

Roman thought, looked into the carriage, and found that it had become unusually quiet since he didn't know when. Looking around, he found that all the passengers around him had fallen asleep silently, even Emily who was opposite Roman.

Something was wrong, Roman got up quietly, sat next to Emily, pushed her, and found that there was no response, and seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep.

The same is true for the people around, sitting on their seats and falling into a deep sleep, but some of them looked grim and painful, as if they were having a nightmare.

After pushing Emily hard, but there was still no response, Roman pulled out the "Wand of Travel". No matter what happened here, Roman could take Emily away first.

However, Roman looked at the passengers in the car and hesitated. The situation was not so critical that he had to leave immediately. Roman thought for a while, and held the "Guardian Shield" with his left hand. In an instant, the car was full of light, just like the morning.

In the light of dawn, Roman saw a darkness hidden in the carriage.

To be precise, there are two places, and the other one is the holy emblem of the night on Roman's chest. In the light of the morning light, it echoes the darkness contained in an object over there.

Holding the cane, Roman slowly approached the darkness, and found that it was wrapped in a beautiful box in a suitcase carried by a passenger.

Roman didn't know if it was the source of the accident for the people in this car. Perhaps, it was the goddess' badge that protected him from falling into a deep sleep?
While thinking, he opened the box.

An exquisite bone flute appeared in front of Roman. It had a pale color like bone, with many complicated and classical patterns engraved on it. It looked quite old but not outdated.

The moment he saw it, Roman only felt a deep drowsiness hit him, as if seeing a strange, colorful circle of black, he was about to fall into the deepest dream.

At this time, the holy emblem of the night that Roman had been wearing close to his body seemed to echo, creating a layer of pure, deep darkness around Roman, allowing Roman to still maintain some clarity.

"Sir, I suggest you better not touch it."

While Roman was observing the bone flute, suddenly a lady's voice came from behind him.

Roman turned around suddenly, held the shield, and looked in the direction of the sound.

In the environment illuminated by the light of the morning sun, it is very abnormal for someone to be able to hide from Roman's perception and come to his side.

The morning light of the "Guardian" level allowed Roman to know the surrounding environment well, and he had no idea when this lady appeared nearby.

Either she is a demigod, or she has demigod-level means...

Roman also saw clearly the figure making the sound. It was a lady wearing a black hooded cloak, who could only be seen from her figure. The whole person was hidden in the cloak. What Roman could see clearly was that she was not covered by the hood. Live half face.

Some pale, bloodless face, the corners of the mouth slightly upturned.

Obviously unable to see her eyes, Roman felt a burst of staring.

"Sir, I have no intention of becoming an enemy of a favored person of the night, I just want to get back that holy object."

There seemed to be some smiles in the lady's sweet voice, but Roman couldn't smile at all, feeling a little stiff in his figure.

Squeezing the "Yang Yan" charm in his pocket, Roman looked at the slender figure hidden in the cloak:
"Saint?"

"It's a sacred object in my family. Maybe it's a bit different from your church's positioning of holy objects." Perhaps because of the Holy Emblem of Night in Roman's hand, the lady actually answered Roman's question.

Seeing what Roman wanted to ask, she went on to say:

"The seal of this sacred object is not intact. Stimulated by your badge, the negative effects have begun to appear."

"The people in this car have fallen into the deepest dream. No matter how long it takes, I'm afraid they will never wake up."

Roman was silent for a few seconds, looking at the figure:

"Can you seal it?"

"Of course, that's not difficult." A slightly smiling female voice came from inside the cloak.

From the state of the night badge just now, Roman can feel that the bone flute should belong to the "night" domain. If this dangerous lady does not appear, Roman plans to pray to the goddess directly, but now...

I'm not sure if praying to the goddess will be useful, but the situation of this car of people really feels like it can't be dragged on any longer, and if this lady is malicious to me and just attacked me suddenly, I'm afraid I can't dodge it.

Thinking of this, Roman didn't touch the bone flute, but looked at the figure under the cloak, and slowly backed away, indicating that she could start the seal.

At the same time, hold that night badge and start praying to the Goddess.

You can't completely pin your hopes of solving things on a stranger.

"The Goddess of the Night, higher than the starry sky and older than eternity."

"You are the Lord of Crimson, the Mother of Secrets."

"You are the Queen of Doom and Fear, Lord of Sleep and Silence."

"I pray for your favor."

"I beg your attention."

"I pray for your strength."

"I pray that you will awaken these sleeping people from their dreams."

……

The figure who was walking forward to seal it didn't seem to have expected that Roman would pray to the gods, his body froze, and then he moved as usual, continuing his hand movements to complete the seal.

When she sealed the bone flute in a stone-like silver box, she turned around and saw a burst of deep darkness from the badge of night in Roman's hand, spreading around.

The passengers who were shrouded in darkness fell into peace, and the people who had grim expressions just now, as if they had fallen into a nightmare, also calmed down.

Darkness drifted around the lady, but she was unaffected.

Under the hood that Roman couldn't see, she frowned her beautiful eyebrows and tidied up the scene just now.

Without the assistance of any rituals, essential oils, or herbs, she can obtain the power of the Evernight Goddess just by praying, and she is indeed a "favored one"...

While thinking, she slowly walked to Roman's side.
