Chapter 454 The Wrong Way
Shade was in a pretty good mood when he left the Prophet Society. The home is still being renovated, and he plans to go to Lengshuigang to spend a day today.

Slipped home while no one was looking, and headed through the basement to the port city on the west coast. The weather in Lengshuigang is very good today. The blue sky and white clouds are above the calm sea, making people relaxed and joyful. Listening to the sound of the waves and seagulls, not only Shade was in a good mood, but even Mia, who was afraid of the ocean last time, stared wide-eyed towards this beautiful scenery.

I don't know if it's because of her young age or the breed. After the orange cat Mia was adopted by Shade, the length of her hair did not change at all. In the sea breeze, the short cat hair gleamed in the sun, and was blown slightly low by the wind.

Seeing it like this, Shade couldn't help but reached out and touched the cat's head, Mia immediately let out a gentle bark, which made Shade even more happy.

It's also good for your mental health to take a leisurely stroll around the beach like this.

After arriving at Coldwater Harbor, Shade was very interested in going to the Sea Cliff Lighthouse to meet Edmund Old Mister. The old man happened to be going fishing, so he invited Shade to go with him.

Outlanders don't know how to fish, so Shade first followed Mr. Edmund to learn some basic fishing methods under the sea cliff, and then tried to cast the hook and wait. Mr. Edmund scoffed at him, thinking his movements were as stiff as a teenage child.

"Although I can't be called a fishing expert, I caught a big guy the other day."

Shade responded nervously while holding the fishing rod. road.

"Then what did you catch?"

The old man asked while dragging the fishing line under the water:
"You don't want to say, your Did you catch the cat from the water?"

After saying that, he also laughed.

Actually Shade was talking about the mermaid corpse.

In the interval of fishing, Mr. Edmund and Shade exchanged the knowledge he learned from "Ocean Mystery", and asked Shade to take away some of the manuscripts before leaving.

Shade asked if the [Light Guide Hermit Order] knew about the Whispering Poems and the thirteen selected people, and the answer was of course yes.

"So what do you think of the chosen ones?"

Shade was curious.

"This is a large-scale ceremony, and the thirteen chosen people are the executors of the ceremony. It is hard to say what will happen in the end, but it must be very important to let the forces you belong to have chosen people."

>

The old man replies.

"But the second candidate was in Coldwater Harbor a few days ago, why didn't you see any action from you? Oh, sir, don't tell me, you only came after that person left Coldwater Harbor. I heard the news."

"Do you know Ivan Darkness well?"

Mr. Edmund asked, tightening carefully amid the sound of the waves Fishing line, he seemed to have something to gain:

"Starting two weeks ago, so many ring warlocks poured into Coldwater Harbor, and of course I got the news. But that demon possessed guy is not the Hermit Order He's not going to end well."

"Oh? Why is that?"

Shade likes to ask questions of such elderly people.

"It's because I got hooked, give me the net."

While instructing Shade to hand over the tools, Mr. Edmund said:
"The Demoness Council has leaked. I got the news of the second chosen person, including his power and battle method, it seems that the Demoness wants him to be killed by others. From the information I got, that Darkness is more likely to rely on his own dark innate talent than to rely on his own dark innate talent. Good at harnessing the power of demons."

This was also mentioned by Luvia
"What's wrong with this? You mean, he's gone the wrong way?"

Shade asked again.

"Yes, it seems you understand."

Mr. Edmund put the big black fish in the net into the bucket, Mia immediately lay on the bucket to ask for it. Look. After being drenched by the water stirred up by the fish's tail, the cat ran away in a panic, hiding under Shade's legs and sticking one's head around to look for the bucket.

"Do you think normal humans can coexist so perfectly with the evil spirits and demons left in the third era? His dark innate talent allows him to barely control the demons, but he actually gave up and continued to dig deeper. The power of darkness, on the contrary, uses the power of the devil more deeply."

The old man threw the line again, and snorted contemptuously after the fish hook entered the water:
"This is not about picking up Copper Coin and throwing it away. Gold nugget. He ignored his own essence, and the ancient evil spirit demon will never ignore the power of Darkness. Now the young ring warlocks really don’t know awe at all, and he is completely wrong in controlling demons. Well, even in the end, the devil devoured the second chosen person and tried to occupy the chosen person's position, I wouldn't be surprised at all."

"How else can such a thing happen?"

Shade asked. Seeing that his fishing rod was shaking slightly, he immediately lifted it, but there was nothing, not even water plants.

"Why can't there be? The Chosen is not immortal, even more how he hasn't even held a ceremony."

Mr. Edmund said, then sighed again :
"If there is someone around Darkness who can guide him, such as the thirteen-ring warlock of the [Blood Spirit School], the 'Blood Cryer' Hermons, he may be saved. But with the Great Demon girl After playing a game, and feeling the power of the devil more deeply, I am afraid he will go on the wrong road and never look back."

"Darkness will not end well?"

p>

"How many guys who dare to be infected with demons will end well?"

Mr. Edmund answered the question with a question.

I don't know if it's because Mia is always messing up, or it's just bad luck today, or it's just that Shade's skills are not good, until 11:30 in the morning, two people carrying buckets, along the hill under the sea cliff Dow returned to the lighthouse, Shade's bucket still empty, and Mr. Edmund nearly filling his tin bucket.

Now is the last fishing season in the Coldwater Harbor area in summer. As long as there are no special ocean currents or special marine life, fishing will be easier than other seasons.

The two had grilled fish for lunch under the lighthouse, and the pets raised by Mia and Mr. Edmond also got a portion of the fish.

Shade said goodbye after lunch and headed to the city, but the carriage in the city was not easy to find.

After the collapse of the Crimson Esotericism, a few murlocs were forced to hide in the sea, but because they could not leave the place where their ancestors lived, they could only swim in the coastal areas. Occasionally they go ashore to attack pedestrians to get food and daily necessities, so the carriage that leaves the city to avoid danger has also become rare.

The church has nothing to do with these sporadic small numbers of murlocs, after all, apart from murlocs, the city is not without other things to deal with.

So you can only issue a bounty to the warlocks in the local black market. The head of the murloc can be exchanged for gold pounds or crowns in the black market, and the corpse of the murloc can be exchanged for No. 3 holy water.

Although this kind of reward is not low, judging from the number of murloc tribes that are entangled with urban development, and their reproduction speed similar to that of humans, the reward for murlocs may last for many years. .

For Shade, this is equivalent to the Cold Water Harbor major event, the old continent West Coast Cold Harbor City that can be accessed from his basement after the event, in addition to being an additional trading and information gathering place, the coastal area Added the ability to kill monsters in exchange for money and church prestige.

This kind of thinking is a joke made by foreigners when they miss their hometown and entertain themselves.

After entering the city, Shade and Mia sat for a while at the Seven Broom Tavern to listen to the local news and to check the news of the reward for his acquisition of monetary relics. After that, he stopped for another ten minutes to watch the strange ring warlock play Lord's cards, and stood by listening to people talking about the corpse that the church drowned when returning from the sea that was picked up by the Sea Territory offshore.

Most of those corpses have the characteristics of murlocs and need to be dealt with intensively to prevent other accidents from happening.

After leaving the Seven Broom Tavern, Shade went to the Green Algae Tavern on the Conch Avenue along the seaside with the Avrora Manor, where he wanted to buy some local medicinal wine and bring it back to Tobesque as a gift. Augustus priest and Dr. Schneider make gifts.

I don't know if Augustus Priest likes to drink Shade, but Dr. Schneider definitely likes wine tasting. A single rich middle-aged man, since he doesn't like smoking and playing Rhodes, there is nothing wrong with it. hobbies, then you will definitely like to drink.

The old bartender of the Green Algae Tavern seems to have forgotten Shade who came here on the rainy night last Wednesday, and recommended him the special wine of the tavern again. Shade bought a few of each, but because they bought too many, it was inconvenient to take them, and they couldn't turn the drinks into toys in front of the ordinary person, so they had to go to the Avrolla Manor to find servants to help them carry them.

It happened that Miss Avrora was also in the manor, and when she heard that Shade was coming, she invited him to meet in the study.

“Do you like drinking?”

Shade turned the drinks into toys and stuffed them into the suitcase she was carrying in front of Miss Avrora. Demoness, with beautiful brown curly hair, watched his movements curiously, and wanted to call the servants to fetch his treasured wine.

"No, I hardly drink, I gave this to a friend. There are murlocs urinating in your wine cellar."

He just thought of this.

"I know, so except for Darkness who ran away, I turned the rest of the murlocs into fish feed."

Demoness said nonchalantly, indicating Shade sat down to talk.

Miss Shivi Avrolla won't be staying long in Cold Harbor, and she'll be heading back to the United Kingdom of Carsonrick after she's done with the shipyard. If it wasn't for the sudden agreement with Lecia, she should have left immediately after the Cold Water Harbor incident.

Shade probably won't be able to see her often in this manor in the future, and Demoness seems rather regretful about that:

“speaking of which, last time I said I would help You got the spirit rune related to 【Shock】, now there is news."

"So soon?"

"It's just good luck, and 【Shock】is not uncommon The spirit rune has many meanings derived from this spirit rune. However, since I won't stay here for a long time, I chose the fastest way."
