Chapter 683 The Idol Baggage of the Banshees
Unfortunately, Hunter himself didn't seem to appreciate it.
Hunter looked uninterested in Uncle Alvarez's questioning. But when he looked up and was about to say something, his eyes lit up and he pointed to the platform: "Look who that is!"
Yami and Alvarez looked up together and saw a group of fully armored banshees standing in a neat line on the platform.
Of course, the Banshees were common sights, but the other passengers were in a commotion.
"Oh my god. That's it."
"So tall and majestic."
"May the Earl bless you, may the Earl bless you"
The merchants who came here from other places all looked shocked at this moment.
Since Banshees are mainly active in Castel, they are not common in Blood Harbor. These merchants have to go through Blood Harbor to enter and exit customs, so most of them have never seen Banshees.
In fact, many people have never even heard of the existence of Banshee. They just heard that Blood Harbor has low-priced and high-quality goods, so they come here.
Suddenly seeing the giant-like banshees coming here, the crowd was in an uproar.
Bang!
The leading banshee slammed the scepter in her hand to the ground. People looked over subconsciously and saw only a pair of cold eyes.
Those eyes were like an abyss, sucking in all people's emotions and then slowly crushing them. When people reacted, only a strange peace remained in their hearts.
——Banshees are a race of the mind. Just releasing a little bit of the aura of the Sea of Unconsciousness will be enough to intimidate these mortals.
"Why are they here? And they are dressed so neatly."
Hunter muttered to himself, his brows gradually furrowed.
The missions undertaken by the Banshees were mostly dangerous or important, or both. Simply put, they shouldn't have seen the Banshees here if the train hadn't exploded.
Moreover, there were so many of them, and they were even neatly dressed in armor.
Will the candlelight come over? Or will the station be attacked first?
Hunter shook his head, the thought making him laugh.
Beside him, Yami thought for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
"Are they here to send someone off?"
"To send someone off? Who could be so arrogant as to let the banshees come and send someone off? Even the Lord doesn't have any of that, right?"
Hunter said casually.
"No, no, no, have you felt that the Banshee has become more serious recently, recently. To be more precise..."
Hunter also reacted: "You mean the Temple of Silence?"
Several people looked up and saw a group of figures in priest robes behind the banshees.
"Oh, that's Patriarch Ignatius. You guessed it right. He's from the Temple of Silence." Alvarez sighed. He had met this Patriarch when he was still the Grand Duke of the North.
I didn't expect that this meeting would be neither in White Crow nor in the North, but in Blood Harbor. It's a bit ironic.
Yami and Hunter looked at each other and smiled knowingly.
Alvarez had not been in Castel long and did not know much about banshees, but Yami and Hunter had arrived on the island early.
But they knew what these banshees were like in normal times. When they acted so serious, they were probably doing something bad.
The church prayers that day, coupled with the power of the stellar furnace, successfully scared many of the priests of the Silent Church back to the ward. The banshees were so happy that they almost held a party to celebrate.
But the bad thing is that it was too successful.
From then on, the banshees became awkward.
They suddenly realized that they seemed to have idol baggage.
The scene of the quiet prayer in the church that day was deeply imprinted in the hearts of every silent church priest. The powerful figure was really too much to their liking.
From then on, the banshee felt the enthusiasm of the White Crow people. Even Monica was asked for her autograph, even though she was a short person who was less than two meters tall.
From then on, these banshees began to put on a stern face, wear a full set of heavy armor when entering or leaving the island, and their behavior was forced to become much more normal.
At least that's how the priests of the Sanctuary of Silence acted when they were here.
Hunter and Yami looked at the banshees present. They still looked strong, silent and reliable, but God knows if their faces under the heavy armor had begun to distort.
"Wait, are they going to ride in the same car with us?" Yami suddenly reacted.
"It seems so, this number of people." Alvarez stuck his head out and counted the number of people opposite him.
"There are probably more than ten people in the Silent Temple. There must be more than this number. They should be heading to the North to check on the White Plague, right?"
When the word "white disaster" was mentioned, several people fell silent.
It is said that Caster has tamed the White Scourge, or at least been able to control it from moving south.
This was beyond their imagination and made them feel that this trip was more real.
Especially Yami.
He turned to look at Grand Duke Alvarez beside him, and then looked at Patriarch Ignatius in the distance.
These are all big figures in the secular world, the most powerful people in the past.
But a few years ago, he was just a person living in the slums. His biggest goal in life was just to have a house that didn't leak, and maybe to raise a kitten, that's all.
And today, they are sitting on the same bus, heading to the north to build that fertile land.
But what Yami didn't know was that there were many more big shots he could meet - an airship returning from the empire, due to the influence of a thunderstorm, made a circle and made an emergency landing in the north.
The train to the north was spewing thick smoke, and the steam engine drove the wheels rumbling away.
Zeus and the prince had just agreed on the specific details of the arms delivery, and he opened the mind link to take a look, but was almost killed by the news that flooded the screen.
"Hahahahahaha finally gone, woooo ...
"Go away now, and don't come back. I don't want to wear armor every day, walk in formation, and not be able to talk!"
"Oona, you don't usually talk much, do you?"
"Isn't speaking the same as not being able to speak?!"
"Stop arguing and check if Ignati has left."
"Let's go! The train has left the dock area. Two more bends and it'll be completely out of sight!"
『wuhu~』
Zeus closed the mind link and turned to look at the window.
The banshees were divided into two teams, holding scepters in their hands, standing neatly at the station, silent like steel statues.
Zeus opened the mind link.
"Freedom! Freedom!"
"I don't even want to go to church to pray this year!"
The corner of Hughes' eye twitched.
He thought these banshees could hold out until all the priests of the Temple of Silence left, but they revealed their true forms as soon as Ignatius left.
Most of the [Buried] are still on the island!
But then again, these priests of the Silent Temple are actually not inferior to the banshees in some aspects.
