Chapter 57: Late Night Action



"When an outsider picks up this holy sword, God will reappear on earth."

"But what if the holy sword breaks?"

These two sentences echoed in the minds of Karat and Edmonton, completely touching their blind spots of knowledge.

For dozens of seconds, they stared at the shattered holy sword with dull expressions, unable to speak.

They couldn't believe that the holy sword, which was only touched by an outsider in the evening, was broken so suddenly!

What does this mean? What does this represent? The two dared not think too deeply, as if they had returned to the past, when a secret base of the rebels was discovered by the Loen military and was swept without warning. Their fathers all died in the massacre, and their female relatives were abducted and sold to different places. Before receiving the bad news, Karat and Edmonton felt the same as they did now, with a mixture of precipitation, panic, expectation and uneasiness that turned into a strong repression.

"Go back to the jungle, find the high priest and find out the reason. Perhaps this is the latest revelation God has given us..." Karat turned the wheelchair and said in a deep voice.

Edmonton immediately stood up and said to the remaining men:

"You continue to search for those blasphemers, but do not stay here.

"Also, tell the believers outside not to hold any ceremonies or even pray in the near future!"

The unexpected turn of events made him extra vigilant.

…………

Bayam, on the corner of the street where the Church of the Waves is located.

Danitz held a stack of folded white paper, tilted his head and asked with a bit of nervousness, a bit of worry, and a bit of confusion:

"You mean to put them in different places on this street, and finally on the door of the Church of the Waves?"

He was terrified that the church door would suddenly open, and a group of fist-waving priests and bishops would rush out and attack him without asking why he had posted the notice.

Klein remained stern and said:

"Yes."

His original plan was to hand over the matter of "Sea God" Kalvetuwa to Mr. "The Hanged Man" and have him remind the Storm Church, but considering that the other party still held the secret of Bansy Harbor and might have even handed it over, it would be easy to arouse suspicion if he received another important intelligence in a short period of time, so he finally decided to do it himself.

As for the method, it is very simple. Just post a few notices at the door of the "Substitute Punishers" so that they can see them as soon as they come out.

There was a small problem during the execution of this plan. Klein couldn't tell which store or company around the Sea Wave Church was the external identity of the "Manufactured Punisher". He had to ask Danitz to work harder and post it in conspicuous places, including but not limited to the main entrance of the Sea Wave Church.

...I should have just run away before...Why did I think this guy had saved my life? Maybe it was because if it was another powerful adventurer, I would have become a gold pound...No, who would have thought that this madman could solve the curse of the "Sea God" so easily? Running away might be even worse...Danis sighed in his heart, unfolded the stack of white paper, and casually glanced at the contents on it:

"Laeticia Dorela and others entered the ruins of the Sea God on Simim Island and left, and were hunted by the rebels. At the same time, Karat and other rebels were selling a strange bone sword that was slightly curved. The Sea God Kalvetuwa's body was on the verge of collapse, and his mental state was extremely crazy."

…Danitz was stunned for two seconds, and subconsciously glanced at Gehrman Sparrow.

I can understand the above, but why is there a description of the physical collapse of the "Sea God" Kalvetuwa and his extremely crazy mental state... How did Gehrman Sparrow know? Did he find the problem while solving the "Sea God" curse? How did he solve the "Sea God" curse? The organization behind him is more powerful and more terrifying than I imagined... Could it be that it is similar to the "Aurora Society" and serves a real god? The more Danitz thought about it, the more frightened he became.

He first heard of the "Aurora Society" during a sea robbery. It was the first time he saw the captain's solemn expression. After that, he was gradually taught some so-called common sense of the mysterious world.

Klein responded to Danitz's gaze with a neutral look.

In that notice, he excluded his own subjective speculations and only described those things that were certain, in order not to interfere with the judgment of the Storm Church's top leaders.

Among them, the content about Laticia and others taking away an important item was deleted, the lost temple was changed to the broader and more inclusive "Poseidon" ruins, and the stronghold that Karat and others would obviously abandon after realizing that something unexpected had happened to "Poseidon" was also omitted.

Danitz abruptly retracted his gaze, not daring to look again.

The captain said that the more secrets you know about others, the more dangerous it is! He thought about it and said worriedly:

“If you put it on the front door of the church like this, it will definitely attract a lot of attention from the Storm Church.

"Will they find out it was me who did this?"

Klein gave the answer succinctly:

"meeting."

…Danitz forced a smile and said:

"Then I'm not dangerous?"

Klein used the Joker's ability to control his expression and replied calmly:

"You were originally a pirate with a bounty on your head."

Do you think you can walk down the main street of Bayam with impunity now? Klein muttered in his heart.

That’s right, no matter what, they will catch me and offer a reward for me... No, this is a bit problematic! Danitz blurted out:

"But my bounty will increase!"

Klein looked at him without saying anything, but he slightly grinned.

At this moment, Danitz seemed to hear a counter-question:

Isn’t this a good thing?

Good thing the donkey kicked! Danitz laughed dryly twice, took the stack of notices, and posted them in a conspicuous place on the street near the Sea Wave Church while the night was late and the wind was strong.

He really looks like someone posting flyers... Klein, with one hand in his pocket, watched from afar and commented in his mind.

He immediately sighed:

It's nice to have an assistant. At least I don't have to do such a low-status thing myself... If it were Tingen or Backlund, if something similar happened... The scene is too beautiful to even think about...

Danitz finally arrived outside the Sea Wave Church and posted the notice on the main door. Then, he clenched his fist and knocked on the door.

After doing all this, he turned around and ran, and it seemed that ten "Manufactured Punishers" were running out from behind him.

Klein didn't dare to delay. He pulled out the paper man, flicked his wrist and threw it away, letting it burn to ashes, and quickly moved to another street.

After the recent contacts, he has deeply experienced the style of the "Manufactured Punishers" and dare not be careless in the slightest.

Only when they were far away from the Sea Wave Church did they slow down and return to their normal walking speed.

Danitz had a good physique, and his face was not red and he was not out of breath.

He asked with a little doubt:

"Why not just write a letter and drop it off at the police station, or drop it off at the Governor's Palace?"

Before Klein could answer, he already understood:

"Yes, the lower-level police and the staff of the Governor's Office are all locals. They are likely to sympathize with the rebels, or even be hidden believers of the 'Poseidon' themselves."

As they were talking, the two turned the corner and saw a large red building in front of them. The lights were on inside, music was playing faintly, people were coming and going at the door, and carriages were passing by. It didn't feel like late at night at all.

“Ha, you actually came here.” Danitz was stunned for a second, then smiled a smile that all men understand.

Red Theater? Klein, who was well-informed in theory, suddenly understood.

Danitz chuckled and said:

"This is one of the most famous places in the entire Sonia Sea. There are the mysterious and charming Balam girls, the passionate and fiery Feynapotter girls, the open and attractive Intis girls, the tall and fit Feysac girls, the conservative and quiet Ms. Loen, and the gentle and docile locals..."

This guy knows a lot... Does he come here often? Klein glanced at Lieyan and said nothing.

Danitz inexplicably felt like he was being seen through, and immediately smiled awkwardly:

"That's just the pirates bragging, I've only been here a few times.

"I didn't have much money before, so I could only find ordinary ones, and they were mainly in the Misty Sea. Later, I joined the 'Golden Dream'..."

No wonder... Although Vice Admiral Iceberg's subordinates were treated well and often shared treasures, it was still quite difficult to save up several houses in Bayam... Compared to ordinary pirates, this guy at least knew how to be frugal and save money... Klein thought with sudden realization.

Danitz didn't want to continue this topic, so he changed the subject:

"In Bayam, there are a lot of streetwalkers, especially there."

He pointed to the distance and said:

"There were pirates who tried it before. They knocked on the door of a random family, took out money, and asked to have sex with the hostess. As a result, three or four out of ten families agreed. Tsk tsk, if you have a typical Loen look, almost no one would refuse. They would just hide their daughters and not let you find out. Haha, every year, the Loen navy commits many murders and rapes of young girls here. They are not much better than the pirates, but they will only be expelled back to their country and at most pay a fine..."

Klein listened quietly. His mind suddenly recalled the group of Poseidon believers who gathered around the pool to pray in the evening. He recalled their fanatical yet numb faces.

…………

Backlund, in the villa of the Audra family.

Emlyn White, who had revealed some problems, nervously followed Casimi into the underground area and once again came to the gray stone hall where the black iron coffin was placed.

"Respected Lord Nibais, why did you summon me?" Although Emlyn had rehearsed similar scenes dozens of times in his mind, he still couldn't completely eliminate the tension and uneasiness in his heart.

In this state, he suddenly realized a problem. From the perspective of drama, the character he was playing should be hiding worries and fears at this moment.

No need for special disguise... I did a good job! Emlyn suddenly calmed down a lot.

A deep and old voice came from the coffin covered with symbols and magical signs:

"To reward you.

"For the sake of the First Ancestor, you took the risk of praying to the Fool. Although you did not receive a response, you still took a great risk, which is an act that must be commended.

"Here is a 7,000-pound acceptance bill, which is your reward. I didn't give it to you in time because of the Backlund smog incident, but it's not too late now.

"At the same time, you must always pay attention to yourself and not relax. Tell Casimi immediately if anything unusual occurs."

Really gave me money... Emlyn almost forgot to close his mouth.
