This Paladin is so despicable!

The diners in the hall were cleaning up their business, and Wright pulled Lilith out of the tavern.

Not long after the two walked on the street, they plunged into a grocery store that was being renovated.

"After Emily was arrested, did you get the news?"

“Rather than being arrested, it’s better to say that I was temporarily invited to the police station.

The police station knows that she is yours and her status is extraordinary, so they don't dare to do anything to her.

But Emily appeared at the scene of the crime more than once, and behaved suspiciously. This time, he had a brief encounter with the murderer.

The police station had no choice but to ask her to sit inside the police station.

And ask her to write a letter and ask you to come and bail her out. "

Wright took the letter handed over by Lilith, read it, and finally raised his eyebrows.

"Learn to be smart and know how to use code words."

According to what Emily mentioned in her letter, she has captured the so-called Mist Serial Murderer.

It's just a pity that the other party used a secret method to escape in the end.

But when the man left, he really muttered something.

Death is nothing but a lie.

Although it is difficult to conclude that he is related to the Demon of Lies based on just one sentence, in this situation, no clues can be missed.

"Okay, at least we didn't get nothing, which is worthy of praise. Let's go and pick her up."

Wright and Lilith closed the door of the grocery store and walked along the slippery road towards the guard station on the high hill.

Kedros Harbor City is a typical seaside city. The whole city is high in the south and low in the north. The farther away from the harbor the higher the terrain becomes.

The City Lord's Mansion is located at the southernmost end of the city, and surrounding the City Lord's Mansion are the most prosperous neighborhoods. The people who live there are either rich or wealthy.

People, call it Uptown.

The place where Wright and his friends temporarily settled down to open a shop was not far from the cargo post and fishing port.

It is close to the seaside. Even if there is no fog, the sea breeze is still mixed with fishy sea vapor, making everything wet and not as livable as the upper city.

Most of the people living here are traders, fishermen, or workers on the dock who rely on their strength to make a living.

People call it Lower City.

It is obviously one city, but it is divided into upper and lower cities. The dividing line between the upper and lower cities is a street called Lucerne Avenue.

The headquarters of the Autonomous Guard, which is responsible for the security of the entire seaport city, is located on Lucerne Avenue.

Wright took Lilith all the way up to Lucerne Avenue. The pedestrians here were walking in a hurry, as if they were frightened birds.

Many strange things happened during the heavy fog a month ago, which overwhelmed the city and made people live in fear.

Those who have access and a way have already hid out. The bustling seaside port was half empty in a month.

The busiest place on Lucerne Avenue is naturally the headquarters building of the Autonomous Guard Bureau.

The agency that was once only responsible for patrolling and catching petty thefts has transformed into the last psychological defense line for the people of Harbor City.

Pushing open the door of the security station, Wright and Lilith walked in with their heads held high.

Director Babylon, who was arranging work, saw him at a glance, and then ran over with a smile on his face.

"Sir Wright, Miss Lilith! Your Majesty!"

Wright and Lilith returned the favor with a smile. They were old acquaintances with the head of the Security Bureau.

The day after Wright received the letter in the Holy Capital, he took Lilith and Emily on the convoy returning home for the Sea Tribe envoy.

This group of sea people first came to the nearest fishing port in the Holy Capital, then transferred to a fleet of boats that had been prepared in advance, and went directly down the river, returning to the seaside in a few days.

After parting ways with the sea tribe, Wright took the two girls on a tourist ship and prepared to take the waterway to Kedros Harbor City.

As a result, due to the frequent occurrence of strange things in Kedros, the cruise tour group temporarily changed its route and canceled its trip to Kedros seaport.

In desperation, Wright and his party went ashore again, bought a carriage, and then arrived at the place.

The whole process can be described as twists and turns.

But when they entered Kedrus Harbor City, Wright secretly thought that this time he had to come and see it in person.

This city is so weird.

It's full of twisted and irrational things, it's like a big collection of weirdness.

Logically speaking, there are only so many people in a city, and it is impossible for such a large place to have so many strange phenomena.

Moreover, nothing happened in the first half month. Suddenly, after a thick fog, it started to grow all along the wall like dog urine moss.

Just like a mere county town, no matter how talented it is, it is impossible for the top ten in the national competitive examination to occupy eight places.

So the county magistrate's ancestral graves are not allowed to be sprayed with Mach rings?

If anything is strange, it must be a monster, but what kind of monster it is, we still need to do a little investigation.

For convenience, Wright came here as a nobleman of the First Empire. With Lilith here, this kind of documents and identity authentication are simply not easy.

At the same time, he is a nobleman who is good at business and has a close relationship with the Sea Clan.

In remote coastal cities like Kedros, nobles with titles like Wright are very popular. He has friendship with the Sea Clan, and even the city lords treat him as a guest.

The most important thing is that he is extremely rich!

Because of the fog, too many people have fled from Harbor City. Some shops were sold one after another, and the prices were severely suppressed.

On the first day he arrived here, Wright spent a lot of money and bought three shops, and even gave the city lord's mansion a lot of money as a meeting gift.

Suddenly, Wright became a popular figure in the city.

The key is that his arrival and actions have the effect of stabilizing people's hearts. The panic was greatly relieved.

The Lord of the City thanked him, and the Sheriff thanked him even more.

"Mr. Wright, you are finally here! Please take your female companion back quickly!"

"Ah? What happened? She was arrested and she still isn't honest?"

The director showed a bitter look on his face: "How dare we arrest your female companion? We just invited her to drink tea here and take a rest in my office.

As a result, Miss Emily actually...actually..."

Wright also became interested: "What happened to her?"

"She actually went to give lectures to those locked up prisoners, shouted some weird slogans, said some weird words, what kind of ideological cleansing was she doing?

The strangest thing is that she... insists on letting the prisoners clean the cell and expand the entrance.

The prisoners were all frightened! "

Wright's old face turned red: "Where is she? Take me to find her!"

"Yes, yes! This way, you two, please!"

The director seemed to have seen a savior and led Wright and the two to the second floor.

At this moment, Emily had been persuaded to go back to the director's office, but she was still eager to chat with the guard, which annoyed the guard quite a lot.

When he saw Wright and Lilith arriving, he immediately became more honest.

"You... are very tortured."

"Ahem, Master Wright! You are finally here!"

Emily immediately rushed forward, was held down by Wright, and then moved to Lilith aside.

According to factory settings, Emily is Wright's female companion.

After all, Wright is a rich and powerful aristocratic son, and it is normal for him to have a beautiful companion by his side.

Moreover, this female companion is not only beautiful and elegant, but also a powerful magician.

This makes Wright, a nobleman, even more proud.

As for Lilith, she is nominally Wright's distant cousin.

Intermarriage within the aristocracy was common, so the ambiguous and intimate behavior between the two would not arouse suspicion.

"Mr. Director, I'm really sorry for causing trouble to you guys."

"It's okay! Miss Emily is passionate and full of justice. She is willing to help Harbor City solve problems. We are honored."

"I will discipline her strictly after I bring her home!"

"Good work, good work!"

Wright glared hard at Emily, who managed to put on a pitiful expression for a long time.

"I'll take care of you when you get home! Follow me!"

"oh……"

The three of them left the security station and returned to the renovated grocery store.

As soon as the door closed, Wright slapped his hand on the counter.

"Emily, you can! Are you going to a prison to do ideological work for prisoners?

Who can your thoughts do work for? Isn’t this misleading? "

Emily hid behind Lilith and showed a flattering smile: "No, I just... want to try your trick.

What if it succeeds? "

"Do you have that hardware? Do you have that software? You... forget it."

Wright pulled up a chair and sat down: "Let's talk, have you found the murderer?"

"I didn't find it, I caught it! But! He just turned into nothingness and ran away!"

Emily explained in detail how she investigated, searched, and captured.

"After I rescued the girl, the murderer wanted to attack me again. But I suppressed him with an ice roar, and then trapped him with an ice cage.

Just when I was about to capture him, he disappeared.

Then, I was discovered by the security guards who arrived.

Didn't you say that you can't conflict with them, so I have no choice but to surrender. "

Wright frowned after hearing this, and after thinking for a moment, he asked: "You said he disappeared, did he disappear with a swish, or disappeared with a swish..."

"……What's the difference?"

Lilith rolled her eyes: "It's really tiring to listen to the exchange between you two. What Wright means is, did the murderer suddenly disappear in an instant, or gradually disappear."

"Gradually disappearing! It is slowly fading. Then I went to catch him, but I missed it. But I am sure that he escaped. Because after he disappeared, I could still feel his breath.

It's just that the thick fog at that time blocked my insight skills and I couldn't catch him. "

Wright nodded slightly: "That's not a space jump method such as teleportation or teleportation...

It seems that my initial deduction was correct.

The devil of lies wants to sink the entire harbor into the crevices of dreams. "

Emily tilted her head: "Why, what good does this do to him?"

“It costs a lot to bring things from dreams into reality.

But if it were the other way around, and the things in this world would be sunk into dreams, the energy that would flow from reality to reality would also be huge.

If the Lie Demon really succeeds, he will receive an incomparable amount of dream energy feedback.

He is very likely to use this energy to open the seal at the bottom of Dragon Island. "

Emily didn't understand even more now: "But hasn't Dragon Island disappeared? Could it be that they have been dragged into the dream by the devil of lies?"

Wright pondered for a moment and analyzed: "According to my inference, not yet.

The conditions for dragging things in the world into dreams are extremely demanding, and it is impossible to do so under normal circumstances.

The Lie Demon also took advantage of the concept of lies to be able to do it in theory.

But even if it is a small seaport city where humans live, his layout has not been successful so far.

The terrifying Dragon Island... If he was dragged into a dream by a thick fog, then he wouldn't have to work so hard to unlock the seal.

He is playing dominoes right now!

Arrange the dominoes of different sizes from small to large. Just calculate it properly and push to the first domino. It can cause a chain reaction, and finally push the biggest piece.

The strange things happening in Harbor City now are the dominoes he cultivated.

We have to find a way to defeat his plot and force him out of the darkness at the same time!

For example, cultivate your own dominoes. "

Lilith turned to look at him: "You are talking about your Blood and Flesh God Cult, right?"
