"I heard there are more pirates on the sea recently..."
"They're always here anyway. The rainy season is coming soon, and not many people will go out to sea. They'll definitely take advantage of this period to hunt. It would be troublesome to run into them."
"well……"
After what happened just now, everyone in the hotel started to eat and rest normally. When they had nothing to do, they would chat about things happening in different places.
Just like when Sean first left town.
This custom passed down from generation to generation will not change much regardless of the era, and the place where these traders gather is the best place to get information.
Sean sat in the corner and listened to the news brought by everyone... Because of what happened just now, many people could see that he was a wealthy man, and many ship merchants, trade caravans, and even mercenaries were interested in making friends with him.
However, when asked about his origins, he simply said that he came from the direction of Jagong.
"Jagon? I heard that the land has changed a lot over the years."
“It’s huge!”
"I heard that Queen Ayla carried out a series of reforms after returning to the throne. She and her brother had been displaced since childhood and had seen the current situation of many countries, so after her return this time, she implemented reforms in the entire country." said a nosy mercenary.
Sean discovered that there were many rumors about Jagun in this era, most of which were due to his mother...
There are very few examples of women being elected in the desert regimes throughout history, so the Queen of Jagun is particularly highlighted.
According to his original understanding, his mother and the later Sun King were originally members of the royal family. They were forced out of the palace because of the internal unrest in Jagun, and then the rebels controlled the country for a long time. In the end, because the news of the survival of the royal bloodline was made public, the generals who were originally oppressed cheered and finally took back the power.
And at that time, his mother was only a teenager when she ascended the throne!
It can be regarded as a legend.
Even among all the stories Sean knew, there were very few such examples.
In addition to the news about Jagun, another thing Sean seemed to know was the news about the target he was looking for... It was impossible to directly ask if anyone knew Nyarlathotep. They would know the ancient gods as long as their names were spoken.
I am now in a time vortex. If the Wizarding Society emerged in the next twenty years, this point should be the beginning of its establishment. It might be easier to start with their founder.
So Sean began to ask people who came to know him about wizards, especially those mysterious legends...
About investigators, or archaeologists.
I always feel that only these two professions are naturally linked to the ancient gods.
"Sir Sean, are you interested in wizard stories? I've heard some on the sea before... from southern countries. They always say that there are ancient cities deep in the distant icy sea, and ancient demons slumbering within them."
"Did it come from the south?" Sean asked hurriedly.
Isn't this the legend of the deep-sea city? Ordinary people can't possibly know this, and the technology in this world is even less likely to penetrate the depths of the sea, so the person who can say this is most likely the source core that spreads chaos.
"It's in the south. There used to be quite a lot of them on the southern continent. I saw them a few months ago."
"them?"
"There's a church organization called the Black Pharaoh. It doesn't look like a wizard organization, but it's always spreading similar doctrines. Because the southern alchemists are in charge, they seem to like hearing such stories, so no one cares about these things."
“Yes, quite a lot!”
Another person said.
South...
Sean thought about it and decided that he would have to sail to the southern continent.
After dinner, Sean took some braised meat and vegetables and prepared to go see the little guy he had just rescued.
Otherwise, just give the other party some money and let her behave herself. It's a pity that a little girl with some magical talent was abducted and sold.
However, this area is full of mixed people and it is not effective to just give the other party money!
He didn't think too much about it when he bought her just now. Now when he was preparing to go to the southern continent, Sean felt that it was a bit of a burden to bring a little girl with him.
Paused at the door.
Take a deep breath...
"You must be hungry."
When I opened the door, the room was empty.
The open window reminded me that the little brat had run away!
The clothes that had been placed on the bed were gone, and there were signs of washing in the sink in the inner room, but there was no one there.
wcnm!
Ran away with the little girl?
Sean walked around the room...
Everything that could be taken away, including clothes and the medicine bottles on the table, was taken away, and even the tea sets of some value that were originally in the hotel were gone.
I...
I ran to the window and looked around, but it was getting dark and I couldn't see anything.
Damn little brat!
Sean never thought that one day he would be jumped by a little brat...
"If you have the guts, don't let me see you again, or I'll beat you to death!" he roared into the darkness.
Calm down and think carefully.
The attributes displayed by the little girl, such as her distrust of outsiders and her preference for traveling alone, seemed to be true. However, the essence revealed by her vision was more real than what the eyes saw.
Oh my god.
My 1,500 gold coins!
Although this money was nothing to Sean, he could exchange a piece of jewelry from his wrist or ring for tens of thousands of gold coins, and Illya had given him a lot of money before he set out, so this set of clothes was worth a few hundred gold coins.
