The red moon returns

Chapter 126 Death Call

The sound of horse hooves was heard, and five almost identical carriages were speeding along the Rhine Avenue in the sunset.

It is now past five o'clock in the evening, when the traffic on the main road in Rhine City is the most congested, but the road where the carriages are traveling is empty, not to mention the carriages, not even pedestrians.

Every ten meters, a pair of blue uniforms stood on one left and one on the right, blocking the entire street. These blue uniforms were equipped with glue sticks and were tall and tall. No matter how much the stopped vehicles and pedestrians complained, they would not stop. No living creature is allowed near the street.

Lin Qi sighed softly. He couldn't escape the traffic control even after crossing. Fortunately, I was not the one being controlled now.

This was the travel convoy of Speaker Grant of the City Hall. Lynch and Speaker Grant sat face to face in the third carriage, enjoying unprecedented high-level treatment.

At this time, Lynch put on his cheap formal clothes, took the pistol and ring with him, held the newly acquired Blood Elegy in his hand, and sat upright on the sofa in the carriage. He agreed on the spot to Speaker Grant's invitation just now.

It was a bit dangerous, and he probably guessed that the so-called friend meant the sewer ghoul, but he did not refuse.

Although I haven't figured out what the other party wants to get from me when they suddenly show their kindness, they will choose to bribe me because I am obviously useful to them. So before my value is exhausted, I don't have to worry about the other party directly getting rid of me on the spot.

What's more, Rhine City is a civilized society after all, and the other party will have some scruples. As long as you stay in public places, you can basically guarantee your own safety.

Then you might as well meet him, it's a rare opportunity, and at least find out why the other party wants to dig out Zul'Glashar.

But even if he was confident, Lynch still took precautions. If he didn't go back at night, he would ask Mrs. Maggie to hand a note to the watchman to clarify his whereabouts.

Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the carriage was speeding on the empty main road, watching the tall and gorgeous buildings on both sides passing by. Even the Rhine Bridge, which was crowded day and night, had been cleared early and was unobstructed. This strong feeling In comparison, it is really a very refreshing experience.

This uniqueness that cannot be reproduced is enough to make many people intoxicated. They have to admit that power and money are really good things. No wonder so many people want to rob them at all costs. Even a time traveler like Lynch is not sure whether he would have lost himself in temptation if he had not embarked on the path of immortality.

"almost."

Speaker Grant's voice interrupted Lynch's self-reflection, and Lynch looked around in surprise.

The convoy has arrived at the Crown District. It is unknown where it is heading, but it has no momentum to stop. The surrounding scenery is the same as before, and there is nothing special about it.

What's almost done?

Just as he was wondering, he saw Grant opening the secret compartment under the sofa and taking out a small birdcage.

A beautiful canary was in the birdcage. As soon as it saw the light, it immediately made a crisp bird song. The chirping was quite pleasant.

Grant skillfully took it out of the cage, put it on his finger and gently stroked the canary's head. The little bird flapped its wings comfortably and screamed more cheerfully. However, after a few calls, the bird's song suddenly stopped, and Grant used force without warning and directly broke the canary's neck. Canary's body struggled feebly for a few times, and then completely lost her voice.

Lin Qi frowned, and then saw him throwing the bird corpse to the ground. Lin Qi's heart moved, and he instinctively tightened his cane. The next moment, the stiff corpse suddenly struggled violently again, twisting for a while and then suddenly It expanded rapidly and transformed from a bird corpse into a human form squatting on the ground.

Resisting the urge to hit him with his cane, Lynch forced himself to remain calm and watched the changes in the carriage. The bird carcasses on the ground had disappeared, and the new humanoid figure stood up nimbly, looked around, and then looked around Grant. The Speaker sat down next to him. What appeared strangely was a bald human with tattered clothes. Lynch still remembered this face. It was the homeless man who led the hunt for Maya at the train station yesterday. He was also the first to transform into a ghoul in the carriage cemetery. The murderer who demolished several carriages.

After close contact, Lin Qi only felt palpitations, but he was much calmer than Elder Nicklay who met the mountain people. Lin Qi already had experience and silently estimated that the strength of this ghoul should be between power four and six. A mid-level powerhouse.

"Is he Lynch?"

It was also a voice like a baby crying, and it was more harsh than the mountain people's. It made Lin Qi frown again and suppress it.

"Yes, Elder Blue." Speaker Grant moved to the side covertly, "He is still a little hesitant. It seems he doesn't know how serious the problem is."

Ghoul Elder Blue looked Lynch up and down with his blood-red eyes, and said with a ferocious expression: "We met yesterday, so there's no need to explain what I am, Lynch."

Lynch narrowed his eyes and nodded.

"You rescued that woman yesterday and caused a big disaster. Because of your actions, the city is now in a very dangerous situation. You must join us and stop the crazy actions of the mountain people, otherwise you will die. How many people, their deaths are all your responsibility."

Lynch sneered and said forcefully: "If that's all you have to say, then I'd better go back. Me coming to see you is already a sign of sincerity. The purpose is to understand the situation and make a decision, not to Listen to these exaggerated nonsense. Either you explain the specific situation clearly, or I leave now. In addition, it is best to put away the request that I hand over the woman. I am not interested in discussing this issue. "

Elder Blue was not angry, but just snorted: "That woman? We have no interest in her at all. We just want to stop the mountain tribe. If you don't want Mordiggian to come to this world and destroy everything, then cooperate with us. Take action and stop the mountain tribe from taking action against that woman.”

"Ok?"

"Their tribe is the guardian of Zul'Glasar, guarding a piece of soul of Mordiggian in the holy city for generations, and we are the awakened ones, abandoning the evil god Mordiggian and returning to live in the city. Originally The two sides have no influence on each other, but some time ago, Mordiggian's soul fragment became restless, and the mountain tribe planned to take this opportunity to awaken the evil god. They used special methods to sacrifice Mordiggian repeatedly to continue to strengthen him. When the time is right, use the fragments to guide the evil god's true body to come."

Hiss... Lin Qi was still half-convinced, but if what he said was true, it would explain some of his doubts.

"We just knew their conspiracy, so we insisted on digging the Best Mountain Tunnel. As long as we take the opportunity to dig out Zul'Glasar, their conspiracy can be made public, and someone will naturally stop them. And in order to cover up their purpose, they have been Trying to stop tunneling."

That’s it, no wonder the conflict is so intense.

Lin Qi thought for a while and asked, "But what does this have to do with that woman?"

"She is the instrument of sacrifice."
