ghost on paper

Chapter 53

2 month 28 day.

It was a quarter past six in the morning.

As the midwinter season fades away, the color of the morning sun turns from warm white to pale gold, bringing warm morning light to the city every time the sun rises.

When this morning light extends from the end of the King's Avenue, which is the location of the Royal Palace, along the King's Avenue to the north, and then crosses the 49 spires of the Lundini Cathedral, it shines on the King's Square.

Thousands of Lundinian citizens had already gathered here. They watched the bright morning sun pass over their heads, illuminating everyone's excited faces, and then moved to the 24-meter-high city wall of Shenwei Prison.

On the originally dim city wall, the vaguely existing alien and the guards were also clearly seen by the citizens with the light of the morning light. They saw the blood-red monster!

In the sun, monsters can't hide!

A burst of low exclamations converged like ocean waves and turned into a raging sea, in which many voices were repeatedly transmitted, amplified, and even formed into an explosive noise.

"Look! He's so ugly!"

"Is that his tentacles!"

"Why is he bright red!"

"How are the sheriffs going to kill him?"

Some citizens with better eyesight, or nobles and businessmen with binoculars, began to marvel at the horror of what they saw.

As for the fear on the other side, what they expressed was not fear, but excitement and surprise. After all, the monster had been locked there waiting to be executed.

Even in the best and most curious circuses, you can't see such a wonderful existence.

The word 'polluter' is no stranger to the residents of Lundiny. During the Great Patriotic War, this word was even mentioned frequently, but the chances to see it with their own eyes were indeed rare.

So this moment is like a big festival.

The voice of discussion was also transmitted to the city wall.

A large number of security officers lined up here holding muskets. They were all ordinary people and were very curious about the monster, but they could not leave their posts and could only peek at the blood-red monster.

He was chained and hung there, kneeling on the ground with his arms half outstretched.

Half of his body seemed to have been peeled off, and the other half of his body was also scarred. The extremely thick bright red tentacles were the most conspicuous.

That is the biggest characteristic that monsters are different from humans, and it is also a symbol of evil power in the eyes of ordinary people.

Now this symbol of evil power, fastened by a hoop like a dog's tail, and lifted upwards, also appears languid—the mass of white suckers on that antennae are withered.

This posture fixed with iron chains not only gave the polluter the greatest humiliation, but also showed the public his abnormal form to the greatest possible extent, and gave the viewers the greatest pleasure and pleasure.

The public can see the monster, as well as the guillotine dangling from its head—the polluter is effectively chained to a beheading frame.

This beheading frame is stained with blood and has a long history. In the past 100 years, it has beheaded no less than 100 beautiful or ugly heads, including pagans, rebellious royal families, and polluted humans.

The Red Gloves, who were closest to the polluters, were not entirely happy with all this arrangement.

Equally dissatisfied was the Habsburg butler.

The two parties stood on both sides of the polluter, and the atmosphere between them was delicate.

"If that person is the mother of the plague, she should be the one who is tied here to be beheaded." Li Guding whispered in a voice that could be heard ten meters away, "So, I'm afraid she dare not come?"

This is what the Red Gloves are most dissatisfied with. They suspect that the black yarn is the mother of the plague, but due to Habsburg's protection, they cannot investigate and judge it. Instead, they want to hand over the polluter's body to she.

The housekeeper frowned at the maliciousness of the red gloves. There were still 15 minutes at most, when the first ray of sunlight officially shone on Shenwei Prison, and the execution was about to begin, but Heisha and her assistants still hadn't arrived. What's the matter?

Only Heisha knew how to make potions from this monster's corpse.

If she doesn't come, the play can't go on.

……

Truman reached out to call a car on the side of the road.

Lundiny has a carriage for hire, but he doesn't come to such a remote place by the Ize River in the early morning to do business.

And at this time, the entire Lundinian citizens flocked to the King's Square, and the already remote road was even more sparsely populated.

So after more than half an hour, Truman still hasn't called the carriage.

He was secretly happy, and looked at his pocket watch. It was only a quarter of an hour before 7 o'clock, and it must be too late.

Even if Hei Sha ran all the way relying on her 'legendary' status, it was too late.

Besides, Heisha has to compare herself with the emperor's daughter everywhere, so how could she run wildly regardless of her status?

Truman said to Heisha with guilt: "Ms. Heisha, I'm sorry, it seems that we must be late."

"What a disappointing day." Hei Sha's tone was full of complaints and unwillingness, "I didn't want to use such an unmannered 'skill'."

Um……?Truman was slightly puzzled when he heard the word 'skill'.

"Come on. Mr. Truman. Come with me." Hei Sha pulled Truman up and jumped into the river.

thump!At the moment when he fell into the river, Truman was still in a daze.

At this moment, his 'sensitivity' characteristic is in the avatar, he is just a slightly stronger ordinary person, and his reaction ability is not good, so he fell into the water ignorantly, and immediately began to struggle.

Whoa!

The water that Truman swiped with his hands suddenly turned into hard soil, followed by a sense of suffocation and claustrophobia. He sat up in surprise, and found himself sitting in a place... Well, this is the cemetery, right? ?

Why did those sheriffs look at themselves with such expressions?

This is... this is the Divine Might Prison!

Truman saw the gray-black city wall that was seven or eight stories high, as well as the taller Arrow Fort on the city wall, which even towered into the sky from this angle.

He is too familiar with this Arrow Fort at the moment.

The two perspectives converged together, giving Truman a slight sense of dizziness.

He was inside Shenwei Prison... Truman was taken aback by this realization.

"Who are you!" The sheriffs pointed their guns at Truman in horror.

They were greatly frightened. Today was the day of execution of that monster, and everyone in Shenwei Prison was on guard, including this cemetery.

The cemetery in Shenwei Prison is used to bury some corpses that are inconvenient to be announced to the public. Two corpses were buried a few days ago. The word palpitation can be described.

"We are the distinguished guests of Habsburg." Hei Sha's voice sounded, "Don't you know me?"

Obviously, the sheriffs knew Hei Sha.

But looking at the appearance of these two people pushing up from the two new graves, it is really too difficult to understand.

"Master Heisha...you...why?" The magistrate's question was also Truman's question.

"An extraordinary 'skill'." Hei Sha replied.

……

At this moment, in the Izzy River, where Heisha and Truman dived, two corpses slowly sank to the bottom of the water and then floated to the surface.

……

In Shenwei Prison, although Heisha also climbed up from the grave, her whole body was relatively clean, much better than Truman's body covered in dirt, with a few grave grass on his head, probably because... got used to?

What kind of skill is it so evil... Traveling through more than ten kilometers in an instant and crawling out of the grave?Truman was very confused.

Dang bang bang bang bang...!
The bell has already rung.

Truman looked up subconsciously, and had a connection with his other self above the archery tower.
