Chapter 757 Storm Kingdom
The paranoia in the Storm Kingdom has reached a critical level, but it is understandable.

Suppose one day, humans walk out of the earth and the solar system, and suddenly discover that the universe is actually very lively, with starships of all sizes flying everywhere. Compared with them, humans themselves are like a country boy who has just left the village and entered a big city.

I'm afraid that by then humans will also have a great sense of crisis, always feeling that aliens will come to harm us.

The Storm Kingdom has the same mentality. From their king to the citizens, they all have a very serious paranoia.

But the good side is that this sense of crisis has greatly stimulated the Storm Kingdom's enterprising spirit. Their technological level has developed by leaps and bounds since entering the interstellar age. They are currently one of the very few forces that can build such a behemoth as a starship.

Of course, because of this sense of crisis, the management of outsiders is very strict. When everyone got on the tram, there were already special people conducting a detailed inspection of the Manta Ray to see if there were any contraband items.

You can't be as ostentatious in this place as you are in Kexing City. In Kexing City, no one cares if you kill or burn something, but here, even if you tap a local's shoulder to ask for directions, you might be arrested by the police for assault.

Alyssa specifically told everyone not to run around and to stay within their own field of vision. We will leave after we finish our business and will definitely not stay here for long.

It sounds like a dangerous place, but the locals are actually quite friendly. As long as you don't do anything to arouse suspicion, there will be no misunderstanding.

After riding the tram for nearly another hour, everyone left the station, rubbing their buttocks that were almost flattened.

There is no need to take a car here. Alyssa remembers the surrounding environment and it is not far from the destination.

They walked along the street for a while, entered a residential area, and stopped in front of a two-story villa.

Alyssa rang the doorbell, but no one responded for a long time.

"Could it be that no one is home?"

"I hope he's just gone out temporarily. If he's moved, it'll be hard to find him."

It has been several years since the last time I came, and there has been no contact, so Alyssa is a little unsure.

Thinking about this, I suddenly felt a little anxious.

"Who are you looking for?"

Maybe Alyssa and the others stayed at the door for too long, so the old lady living next door quietly poked her head out and asked.

"Auntie, we are here to look for Mr. Wright. Do you know where his family has gone?"

"Alas... you came at an unfortunate time. Mr. Wright just passed away last month."

Alyssa's heart skipped a beat. Oh no! This trip would be in vain.

Mr. Wright and Alyssa's grandfather are close friends regardless of age, but he is really old and may pass away at any time.

Just when I was worrying about what to do, the old lady next door wiped her glasses and suddenly said:

“You are…Alyssa?”

"You know me?"

"How could we not know each other? I held you in my arms when you came to see Mr. Wright with your grandfather when you were a kid, but you didn't give me any face at all and peed on my hand."

"..."

I don’t know how the old lady recognized Alyssa, but she casually told her dark history.

But since it was someone she knew, the old lady provided new information:
"Mr. Wright's grave is behind the house, next to the Church of Our Lady of the Grave. Verania should be there at this time. Go find her."

"Okay, thank you auntie."

Sophia asked in a low voice:
"Who is Vilania?"

"Mr. Wright's granddaughter. I met her a few years ago."

It was not 100% certain to get a ship through Mr. Wright's connections, not to mention his granddaughter. But since we were here, we couldn't come here for nothing, so we had to give it a try.

So everyone turned and walked to the back of the house, and soon they saw a small church in the residential area.

In China, living next to a cemetery is considered unlucky, but not here. Living next to a cemetery means being blessed by your ancestors, and this is also a very sought-after piece of land.

So you can see that there are cemeteries in residential areas.

In front of the church, several Pharasma priests wearing black robes and white masks were presiding over the funeral. They should be among the priests least affected by the fall of the gods.

The main job of a priest of the god of death is to watch over the dead. They do not provide healing services like other priests (although they can). Regardless, people will die, and the dead will need funerals.

Alyssa and the others did not disturb the funeral scene, but entered through the side door next to the cemetery and walked along the gravel road while searching.

When they climbed over a small hill, they saw a little girl standing in front of a relatively new tombstone not far away, wiping her tears.

It looked less than one meter tall, probably six or seven years old, and was crying very sadly.

Fang Lanyin had sharp eyes and immediately noticed the words "Mr. Wright Hunter rests here" engraved on the tombstone. It seemed that she had found the right person.

There were no adults around, only a little child standing in front of the tombstone wiping tears. It instantly touched the softest part of everyone's heart. The child looked so pitiful.

However, the next moment he turned around, swiftly took out a pipe and put it in his mouth.

"Put away your sympathy. I am twenty-seven years old. What? Have you never seen a halfling?"

"..."

Indeed, a halfling is literally half a person, and it just looks like a child.

She lit her pipe with a long match, looked at the speechless crowd, and said uncertainly:
“You are…Alyssa?”

"It's me, long time no see, Veranya."

"It wasn't that long ago, but you suddenly shaved your head and put an implant in your head. I almost didn't recognize you."

The last time I saw Vilania was four or five years ago. However, halflings have a longer lifespan than humans. Four or five years for Vilania is like one or two years for humans, which is indeed not a long time.

"You are here to look for grandpa, right? Unfortunately, he is inside."

As she spoke, Villania was also a little puzzled:

"Mr. James didn't come with you?"

"It's also unfortunate that my grandfather passed away two years ago."

"We are old men now. We may fall into the arms of the Lady of the Grave at any time. Don't be sad."

She said don't be sad, but she was crying so hard just now.

Villania is such a person, she appears strong on the surface, but is actually very fragile and soft at heart.

At least that’s the Villania that Alyssa knew.

"Come on, come to my house. You definitely don't have nothing to do but come here. If you have anything to say, come to my house and tell me. As for the old man, just leave them alone."

After saying that, Villania led the way back, and Fang Lanyin was very moved:
"What a cool guy."

"But she is not as easy to talk to as her grandfather, Mr. Wright. Verania believes in giving something in return. It may not be easy to ask her for a boat."

Having said that, we still have to give it a try. We can't make this trip in vain.
