For the next two days, everything was uneventful, so peaceful that it was hard to believe that there were still several powerful demon hunters lurking in this small town. Hao Ren and Vivian are very concerned about the movement of those demon hunters, and Lily is also a little worried about what to do if those demon hunters find the entrance to the Encatero mystery ahead of time—the clues and seal relics of the Shadow of Chaos may be destroyed by them This is what Hao Ren was worried about. However, two days passed, and the data terminal's monitoring of the energy field near the town indicated that nothing had happened: the demon hunters seemed to have yet to find a way to enter the secret realm.
Hao Ren didn't know how the demon hunters were going to open the entrance to the secret realm without a guide, but he thought that they had arrived here a few days ago but hadn't done anything. Presumably they hadn't been able to crack the strange blockade of the Golden Manor, so It seems that there is no need to worry about them being there first.
And in the past two days, Hao Ren also asked the data terminal to use various technical means to find the entrance to the Encatero secret realm, including finding clues from the sunlight as the spirit detective Pierre said—but in the end these tests failed. nothing. Finding a secret place out of thin air without knowing the abilities of the Ancatero family is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack. Although the data terminal is powerful, it is powerless even if it does not know what it is looking for. .
While Hao Ren was doing these useless tasks, Vivienne and Yizaks were not idle. They checked the town a little bit, and as expected, they found clues of the witcher's activities. It is not difficult to find the ancient alien and a demon king from another world who is so strong that he has no friends. And Vivian also believed that the demon hunter also knew of her arrival. She smelled some very subtle magical power in the air, which was the spying and questioning information from some hidden corners. These magical powers came from the demon hunter. people, but not to cause conflict.
Just like what she said before: Hasselblad's generation of demon hunters know how to measure. After they learned the news that the Countess of the Red Moon came here, they chose the safest way of "expression". They kept a proper distance To observe and "question" Vivian and Hao Ren's party, this distance will not anger the countess, but at the same time, it is enough to convey the message of warning and vigilance.
And in response. Vivian also left her own rune during the event, and the content of the rune is "Don't bother me-for now".
It's a delicate and peculiar confrontation. It is because both parties are clearly aware of each other's existence, but maintain a proper distance to "peace with each other". It may be difficult for the younger generation among demon hunters and aliens to understand and learn this complicated communication mode. Only people like Vivienne and Only the older generation like Hasselblad have this tacit understanding.
Ordinary people may not be able to understand how two factions that are sworn enemies can get along like this, but if they consider that this war can last for 10,000 years, then it is not surprising how things turned out.
In this way, the time finally came to the rendezvous date agreed upon with Wayne Walter. Hao Ren and the others were waiting for the vampire patriarch at the agreed meeting place outside the town. Lily seemed a little impatient, and she has been a little impatient since she knew about the demon hunter's movements: "By the way, why did that Wayne dawdle for two days? He already knows that the demon hunter is here, and he still wastes time. Let others get ahead of you."
"He said he was going back to prepare the items needed to open the Encatero Secret Realm," Vivian rolled her eyes. Wayne had told everyone about these things before coming here, but Lily was busy gnawing on the bones at the time. I didn't hear it at all, "The Ancatero Secret Realm needs special items to open after it is closed. Originally, his family always had this item, but the few investigators sent here before consumed all the items. He had to temporarily Prepare."
"Oh." Lily agreed, and continued to look at the empty field boredly. "Then why hasn't he come out yet? He's been late for a long time by my watch!"
As soon as Lili finished speaking, a calm and graceful male voice came from not far away: "Although I have prepared everything as quickly as possible, it seems that I have kept you waiting for a long time."
Hao Ren followed the prestige and saw the pale Wayne Walter walking towards this side. This vampire patriarch was wearing a black trench coat from head to toe, and a cap like the one in the movie. Wearing a top hat, Hao Ren was a little surprised by the person following him: it wasn't the expected guide, but Hesperis.
Vivian waited for Wayne to approach before greeting lightly: "It's okay. You came on time."
Lily immediately yelled: "Bat, don't you look at your watch, he is obviously late for several times..."
Vivienne glanced at Lily expressionlessly: "Next time you go out for a long time, remember to adjust your watch according to the time zone. Your mobile phone is still in Beijing time."
Lily: "..."
Hao Ren greeted Hesperis and asked Wayne curiously, "Didn't you say you came with a guide? Why are you two here?"
"I am the guide," Wayne said with no expression on his pale face, "this is the result of my deliberation. Those shadows of chaos can be dealt with by the family guards, but the chance of being able to act together with the Countess of the Red Moon is not. It's so easy to meet. I have lived a peaceful life for many years, and occasionally I want to take risks."
Hao Ren looked up and down at the gentleman-like vampire patriarch: "Is this what you really mean?"
He clearly remembered how the vampire patriarch was arguing with other old monsters when he was in the sanctuary in Athens. After knowing that the demon hunters gathered in this place, he was as unwilling as anyone else to come to this place to take risks, so At this time, when he said that he suddenly wanted to experience youth, no one would believe his sincerity.
Sure enough, Wayne showed a warm smile: "It's a scene."
Vivienne frowned: "Do you know that the Ancatero family hides the artifact?"
"Sun roulette," Wayne didn't hide anything in the face of Vivienne's question, "I also just learned about this thing not long ago, it seems to be the key to sealing the shadow of chaos, I really want to see what it is what."
"You know that's the key to sealing the Shadow of Chaos, so you dare to play with it?" Vivienne shook her head in disappointment, "Didn't your father educate you well?"
"No, he's well educated, so I won't be blinded by greed," Wayne laughed freely—at least he looked very carefree, "otherwise I wouldn't have confessed to you so honestly. I just want to see that thing, it is the great power left by the age of mythology, it is the glorious evidence of our ancestors, if you can re-seal the shadow of chaos this time, maybe the sun roulette will disappear again The world is in sight, and I want to witness with my own eyes what an ancient artifact is before then."
Vivienne nodded in a subtle way: "Okay, then you are considered enlightened. But as far as I know, the sun roulette may have caused a melee between several god families in ancient times. Its attraction Maybe it's bigger than you imagined, if you can't resist this temptation... I will have to teach you a lesson for your father."
After Wayne made a serious promise, Vivienne looked at her old friend: "Then Hesperis, are you..."
"As a representative and witness of the Athens Sanctuary," Hesperis said brightly, "you don't think it's a trivial matter to seal the Shadow of Chaos again? If you fail, someone must go back and inform everyone Asylum, so I was sent here. In fact, Hesianna was the one who wanted to come, but I knew your opinion, so I knocked that little girl unconscious and tied her up in advance."
Vivienne had a happy face when she heard the words: "Sure enough, we have been friends for many years!"
"Let's put aside the friendship between you two," Hao Ren interrupted aloud, "Hesperis, you may meet old friends here."
"Old friend?" Hesperis looked strange.
"Hasselblad," Hao Ren spread out his hands, "the one who made a hole in your head."
Hesperis was stunned, and she touched her forehead subconsciously: the wound that had troubled her for thousands of years had been healed by Hao Ren with industrial machine tools, but the pain caused by that wound and thousands of The family feud of years ago still weighs on this "Goddess of Twilight". Her eyes changed several times quickly, and finally Vivian held her hand: "Are you still thinking about revenge?"
"Huh..." Hesperis breathed out, "I said, it's all over. It's just a little surprised to hear the name suddenly. So there are indeed witcher activities here?"
Vivienne nodded in a deep voice and said, "The demon hunters are also in trouble. This incident may be very complicated. Wayne, take your 'door-opening tool' and set off to the entrance of the secret realm now. Let's talk as we walk. .” (to be continued~^~)
