Soul Echo

A fire that burned through the efforts of more than a dozen people over the years.

Not only the adventurer's house suffered losses, but also the adventurer and the merchant who kept the items in the adventurer's house warehouse.

Although it has only been a few months since the Adventurer House was officially opened, when the Adventurer House was built, the organization, which had not yet been formally established, gave money quickly, so after the Adventurer House was officially opened, it was opened to the public. In just a few months, it has become an organization of many adventurers and businessmen in mind and second only to many churches.

It has a strong defense force. In terms of cost performance, the charges are not high. If it is not for the adventurer's house not willing to build too many warehouses, most merchants will choose to store the goods in the adventurer's house. among.

But even such a 'safe' warehouse was burned to the ground by a fire.

The staff of the Adventurer's House panicked because of this. Not only the merchants and the adventurer's goods were stored in the warehouse, but also the spare supplies of the Adventurer's House itself.

Whether it's for changing sheets, bedding, or toolboxes for repairing tables and chairs, if the rescue is not timely and the fire does not reach the food warehouse, they may even stutter and drink after putting out the fire. None of them.

All the people who helped put out the fire got a meal from the staff. The fire has been burning since yesterday afternoon, and they have only eaten this meal.

Therefore, the food provided by the Adventurer's House is very rich.

Chunks of meat, fruits and vegetables that are extremely rare in winter, and unlimited drinks and bread.

Although the merchants and adventurers who lost their goods are still immersed in grief, this does not prevent them from turning their grief into food. Apart from these people, others also feel the sincerity of the adventurer's home.

Zhong Ye washed his hands and ate in silence.

He also worked all night, although this kind of physical exertion can't be considered for him now, but he needs some rest time to think about what is behind the fire .

If the fire was just an accident...it does has several points of possible.

Winter is a period of high fire incidence, Tiangan Wuzao, if there is a fire source, it may cause a big fire if one is not careful.

However, he also suspected that the fire was most likely caused by the escaped 'painted skin'.

Because in addition to the 'accident', the 'painted skin' also has a motive to create a fire.

--destroy the 'skin' it once used!

In other words, can you find the monster using that skin?

Thinking of this, Zhong Ye couldn't help frowning.

At that time, he didn't even think of this. If he had thought about it sooner, the warehouse of the adventurer's house might not have suffered this fire. Where is the 'painted skin'.

"This... Mr. 'Zhong Ye'?"

Heard someone calling his name, Zhong Ye lifts the head, and immediately saw a staff member of the Adventurer House He was standing in front of him holding a pen and paper.

He felt someone approaching just now, but he was still thinking, and he didn't feel that the person was malicious, and his muscles were not in a 'warming state', so he ignored it.

The staff was full of surprise, "You are the legendary hero who saved several cities, Your Excellency 'Zhong Ye'?"

To Zhong Ye The receptionist who did the check-in did not know him. After all, he did everything he did to 'save several cities' in Etrul, which was the kingdom of Gaul. Ordinary merchants and adventurers would not be like him in different countries. wandering between, they usually have their own range of activities.

But the staff member in front of him, I don't know where he heard his name.

"Zhong Ye?"

Hearing the exclamation of the staff member, several adventurers and businessmen stood up and looked in the direction of Zhong Ye.

Apparently, they also know what the name 'Zhong Ye' stands for.

Zhong Ye feels a little bit of a headache, he's really not good at dealing with this kind of thing.

However, he also readily admitted: "Yes, I'm Zhong Ye."

Zhong Ye doesn't think there is anything shameful about his name, so he doesn't deliberately Pursue low-key.

The staff blinked and looked at the tall man who was covered in black and gray, almost invisible, and the excitement in his heart slowly subsided, "Oh, oh, it's like this! We are Counting everyone's losses to compensate, according to the warehouse register, you parked a carriage and a... er, 'corpse' in the warehouse?"

"Exactly Said, it was a corpse controlled by a monster." Zhong Ye said seriously.

The staff laughed twice: "Okay...then, we can compensate for the carriage, but if the body is..."

"Then there is no need." Zhong Ye shook the head .

The skin was originally intended to be used as 'evidence' to convince the Lord of Chartres, but now it's ruined.

The staff bowed politely to Zhong Ye and turned to the next person in the register.

Zhong Ye withdrew his gaze, took a deep breath, and continued to eat his own breakfast.

At this moment, Lily Lieber, who woke up early, came to this open space and found Zhong Ye at a glance.

Although most of the people sitting here are covered in black and gray, Zhong Ye's burly physique is still very attractive compared to the others.

Lily walked over and patted Zhong Ye on the shoulder without any hesitation.

Slightly trembled on his shoulders, holding back his body's reaction, Zhong Ye turned his head and looked towards her.

Seeing Zhong Ye's appearance, Lily couldn't help but burst into laughter and burst into laughter.

Laughing for a while, she restrained her smile, sat next to Zhong Ye, and asked in a low voice, "Do you think that monster did it?"

"probability Not small." Zhong Ye said vaguely while chewing on the meat.

"What should I do next?"

Lily wanted to hear Zhong Ye's opinion, she always felt that Zhong Ye was smarter and more rational than her.

"Wait for people from the Art and Beauty Church to confirm whether the altars are in two states of 'open' and 'closed'. If they are confirmed, they can basically be sure that the 'painted skin' is aware of it. The 'offering' buried around the altar came back to life and came to close that altar."

If this is the case, then the 'resurrection of the dead' is basically related to these altars and the back of the altar. organization is irrelevant.

Zhong Ye looked at the ruins of the warehouse not far away and took a bite of the bread, "Then, I also want to contact the lord of Chartres."

"Lord?" Lily's mind moved, "What do you think..."

"Remember the thing he mentioned when we talked to that cleric yesterday?"

I didn't wait for Lily Answering, Zhong Ye said: "In order to confirm that the symbols on the slate are words, they also specially consulted the clergy of the Church of Knowledge, which also means that they have contacted other churches. Until the day they contacted other churches. , and even until yesterday, nothing similar seems to have happened anywhere except Chartres."

Lily suddenly realized, and pursed her lips in annoyance, she didn't even think of this.

After being annoyed, Lily asked curiously again: "...how are you going to get in touch with him?"

"You!"

Zhong Ye turned and looked Towards the 'former' Princess, "I intend to contact the lord of Chartres in your name and mainly in your name."

Lily opened her mouth slightly, and was stunned for a while before she remembered. own identity as 'Princess'.

Although Chartres is very close to Paris, the news of her private escape from the palace will not come here so soon, and her father will definitely help her cover it up for a while.

In other words, in the eyes of Lord Chartres, she is still the 'Four Princesses' of that kingdom!

"What a great idea!" Lily shouted with a frown.

Afterwards, she received a lot of suspicious eyes.

After feeling that everyone around was looking at her and Zhong Ye, Lily shrank her neck, laughed, and bumped Zhong Ye lightly with her elbow, "Good idea, just do it! "
