Chapter 187

Living sacrifices will not affect people's memory, but living sacrifices to the water fairies are not necessarily so.

This kind of creature has the ability to play with the strings of fate. After the living sacrifice is accommodated in their body, it is equivalent to becoming a part of its fate, and its own existence will also be disordered. This is why the grave robber's companion no longer remembers him.

Clayton can remember him not only because he is the "official priest", but also because his spirit is related to the phase of the moon.

And Donna was saved from forgetting this matter because of the blessing of a unicorn.

If not, you need powerful spiritual vision to stabilize your memory.

"Well, it was a major mistake, but for the sake of it not developing very badly"

Clayton didn't say any more, and Julius was very dissatisfied with such an answer, but he couldn't care less.

Although his employer did such a thing out of a whim, the result gave positive feedback. If he hadn't offered a living sacrifice to the river where Adelaide is located to wake Adelaide, then they might It will be very late to meet the water fairy.

"We need your help," Donna said to Adelaide.

"Find out the owner of this necklace, or you have a way to solve my abnormal luck." Clayton shook the necklace in his hand. "After all, you accepted my sacrifice, and you should do something for me. And I suspect that you are not ignorant of it."

He suspects that Adelaide is lying.

The fairy accepts the living sacrifice and she must reciprocate. This is the rule, because there is a constraint on the level of natural spirituality.

However, Mizusawa Fairy remained expressionless, like a wooden model on a clothing store booth, and she did not deny Clayton's thoughts.

"I'm sorry, but accepting your call is already my contribution. The people of the church tried to arrest me before I could contact this piece of water and soil, so I originally planned to live in seclusion at the bottom of the water and never come out again. Every time I appear It's all at the risk." She didn't say any more, but she had already expressed her needs.

"If you come to do business, you will get rich in no time." Clayton sneered.

Adelaide's age was about the same as Donna's, but she was just a little girl. He should have developed a little compassion, but the change of fate endangered the family, including Donna.He endured the pressure for two weeks, and killed many people during this period, and there was no room for "compassion" in his heart.

"Please don't say that, I have to."

Clayton was noncommittal: "Then please tell me."

"Since you have found out my identity, can you tell me if my father is safe now?"

"He went to Sasha City with someone after you stopped showing up, and your fellow countrymen thought he was looking for you." Clayton said here, paying more attention to Adelaide's face: "Laurence's son Danny said that you left with a stranger and went to the city to get married. What's the matter?"

"Did he say that? Oh, he must have lied to cover me, we grew up together, he was my best friend, and he knew the changes in me. And the threats I faced."

Having said that, Adelaide suddenly let out a slight sigh:

"To be honest, my request is related to Danny. If you see him, please invite him to the river. I have something to say to him at the end. This is a farewell, because I will leave Revo soon , but my body is still in a new state, going ashore will make me weak, and I may be discovered by the church, so I want to ask you to do this for me."

Clayton didn't explain that the people from the church in the city had left, and he agreed directly.

"I have another question. The son of Priest Louis, Sevan, is also missing, but his gun was left by the river and fired once. Maybe you saw what happened to him? Of course, I am for Priest Louis. If you don’t want to answer this question, you can keep silent, I don’t want to pay anything for him.”

This time, Adelaide was a little slow to respond, but still made an effective answer.

"Perhaps he heard the excuse Danny made up, so he dueled the stranger."

"Did you see his body?"

"No."

Adelaide's expression was indifferent, like a puppet in a circus.

Clayton stared at her face with the same inhuman yellow eyes, while his right thumb stroked the ivory-carved girlish forehead on the necklace.

The water fairy can't bear this kind of staring: "Sir, if you have no other questions, just leave, I don't think I have anything else to say to you."

"I have another question." Donna stared at Adelaide just like her uncle: "Why don't you want to show your body? As far as I know, although the Water Fairy doesn't like a dry environment, she is still Not so fragile that you can only stick your head out on the water."

The calm river swayed slightly under the morning sun, and the waves accelerated like a train starting, and the sound of hitting the river bank became louder and louder.The witch and the water fairy looked at each other on both sides of the dry and wet boundary.

Adelaide set her gaze on her—they could feel it, even though the water nymphs had no pupils in their lake-green eyeballs.

"Well—because I'm naked," said Adelaide.

This answer couldn't be more reasonable.

Just when Clayton and his party were in a daze, she quickly sank and disappeared.

The Water Fairy didn't want to see the guest again, so they had to go back.

After walking beyond a distance that even a water fairy would never be able to detect, Clayton deliberately slowed down on the road. He saw the girl pursing her lips.

"I don't trust her."

"It doesn't matter, I don't trust her either, but it is difficult to find a partner who can trust each other."

Clayton looked at Donna's pale face from the cold, and sighed softly, then took off his bowler hat and pressed it on her head.

Adding a black hat on top of the red hood seemed strange, but it did warm Donna a bit. She shrank her neck from the force on the top of her head, and turned her head suspiciously. The expression on Clayton's face was the same as before. Never seen before, faintly frightening, but that look is only fleeting.

What she didn't know, or something she kept ignoring, was that her uncle was not a good man.

Clayton was fairly suspicious of every stranger.

He has seen many ruthless characters, and he also knows how people who are not psychologically strong will behave, so despite Adelaide's good disguise, he can still see that this little girl is very afraid of their arrival, so he is very concerned about himself, and The information they need is concealed.

She wanted something from them, and she didn't dare to let her use value disappear too quickly.

Those tough tone and calm attitude are just a disguise to face outsiders, and Adelaide is not sure how to deal with the three of them.

The pressure and werewolf blood catalyzed Clayton's inherent irritability, and if it wasn't for Donna being here, he wouldn't even hesitate.You can use less soft methods to get the information you want from Adelaide for the sake of efficiency, such as threatening the other party's old father who has gone to the city without any remorse.

Of course it would be shameful to do so.

Clayton was ashamed to think of this when he saw Donna. He tried to reflect, but he couldn't find a reason to convince himself so far, so he decided to put these thoughts aside for the time being and continue with a normal attitude.

Seeing the change in her uncle's face, Donna misunderstood him because of her lack of understanding, and began to explain why she doubted Adelaide.

"The water fairies are not dark descendants like you, and they are not the descendants of the moon. The dark moon will not promote the return of their power. If the descendants of the fairies want to reactivate their blood, there are corresponding methods."

"Usually they will find ways to improve their spiritual power and re-communicate with nature. But there is another way. The descendants of the fairy who died in the water have a certain probability of awakening power. But this is usually not out of active attempts, and even if they succeed, they They will also become evil and extreme. Compared with normal water fairies, their bodies will still have the characteristics of corpses after they are reborn, but it is winter now."

Donna was a little frustrated when she said this.

The cold will suppress corruption, and ordinary injuries are easy to cover up. Even if Adelaide agrees to show her her body, she may not be able to tell whether the other party is a normal water fairy.

"Evil?" Clayton smiled and didn't say much.

This smile was taken as understanding, and Donna breathed a sigh of relief, and raised her hand to pull down her uncle's hat again.

"So where are we going next, Danny?"

"No, that's for later. Don't you want to know what we did while you were away?" Clayton's pace accelerated a little, and Julius quickly realized from his orientation The answer, but it didn't tell Donna what he thought. He expected the little wizard's performance when he saw more corpses.

It's a pity that Clayton has always reserved a warmth for his family, and will not regard shock as a gift to his niece.

"We killed five people that afternoon and hid the bodies in the woods, but the animal trainer's body was dug out by something, so now we have to check whether other bodies have also been found."

Clayton is currently encountering more than one trouble, and he needs to personally investigate all of them.

"You killed five people?! Did they all make a mistake?"

Donna's voice trembled a little.

Even though she always thought that she would not back down in battle, her hands were clean and she had never seen others kill, so naturally she would not be able to adapt to death.

She could accept that her uncle killed one person because of a personal conflict, but she killed five people in one afternoon, she couldn't figure out how this would happen, it made her heart beat violently, and she didn't know what to think of Creighton good.

Seeing her like this, Julius suddenly felt a little sympathetic, and explained: "These five people belong to the same group, that is, the traveling circus troupe that the animal trainer belongs to, but this is just their ostensible identity. , They are still bounty hunters in private, willing to do anything for money, including killing competitors, but this time they hit an iron plate."

"Not all of them were killed by us." Clayton walked ahead and said, and he graciously allocated a share of military exploits to Julius.

Julius also remembered the hapless guy who implicated them: "Yes, there is one who is not."

"Which one is not?" Donna asked while trotting in order to keep up with their speed.

She saw her uncle's footsteps gradually slowing down, and finally stopped in front of a very thick dead tree.

Clayton looked up at the shape of the canopy, and sniffed the smell nearby, then, under her gaze, he stepped forward again, reached into the seemingly bottomless tree hole, and pulled the The body inside was pulled out.

"This one."
