Chapter 1783 The Story of the Reunited Witch and the Ghoul
This time Xia De made no mistakes. Although the chain on his right hand was avoided by the ghoul with a posture beyond the limit of ordinary people's body, the chain on his left hand still successfully locked the left foot of the ghoul.But immediately after, it cut off its own foot with its claws, and the black blood stained the expensive carpet, and then the ghoul struggled and tried to escape again, but this time he had no chance.

"Spatial stability halo! Don't go, I really have no malicious intentions!"

This time, Xia De jumped straight up, and the ghoul turned over on the carpet to avoid it, and ran towards the ceiling with the roast chicken in its mouth, but was immediately pulled down by Xia De.

The two rolled into a ball, and Xia De didn't care about the stench on the other's body, he locked the other's limbs and tried to wrestle.Unexpectedly, the ghoul had a similar idea, and tried to lock Xia De with ground fighting skills, and was full of confidence in himself.

While the two were concentrating on wrestling, the locked door at the end of the carpet was suddenly pulled open.Before Xia De and the ghoul looked up, the power of confining the space acted on Xia De and the ghoul at the same time.

"Who is so bold? Do you know where this is?"

The voice of the woman scolded came. Although it hadn't appeared yet, the powerful force had already made the entangled people and undead nervous.

Black high-heeled shoes stepped out from the left side of the door, and then a beautiful lady with long black hair in a purple dress walked in aggressively.Her appearance was brighter than the brightest delicate flower in spring, even though she was so angry at this time, it did not affect her beauty at all.

Miss Emma Sylvia kept her left hand in the spell-casting sign posture, and angrily scolded:

"Who is it? The Order of the Drowned? The Society of Truth? Or the Club of Tyranny? No, no matter who you are, don't even think about breaking in?"

Only then did he see clearly what was going on in front of him.

I saw Xia De, who was suppressing the ghoul with his body, looking back at her, and being suppressed by Xia De, the ghoul who was being chained was still holding a steaming roast chicken in his mouth, "The great witch of space "Miss Emma Silvia was taken aback.She had thought about all kinds of possibilities to reunite with Shad in the Green Lake area, but she never thought of such a scene.

"Good morning, Detective. Any help?"

"Of course, come and help me. Mr. Green, stop struggling, I really don't want to hurt you!"

In short, although the frequent space casting caused unexpected space anomalies, fortunately, the space transfer was not very far away, and it happened to move to the manor where Princess Margaret stayed.Of course, afterward, Miss Sylvia thought it was not a coincidence, because she was doing experiments on space cracks on the basement floor just now, maybe this was the reason why Shade and Mr. Grimm, the ghoul, appeared unexpectedly.

The location here is Mikaela Blast Furnace, the city of glass on the south bank of Green Lake.The person in charge of the Kasenlik negotiating delegation this time is Duke Simil, who led the team.The Duke is a distant relative of the royal family of Anjou, and can be regarded as Marguerite's uncle.But unfortunately, the duke arranged for Carsonrick's eldest prince Samuel Anjou to live with him, but arranged for Margaret to live in another manor.

This is not because the Duke of Simil thinks that Samuel Anjou must be the next king, or that Marguerite is less capable than her brother.This is purely because the Duke is a supporter of traditional ideas and dislikes involving royal women in politics.

But Margaret didn't care about this either. She had already held a ceremony and officially became Miss Berenice's apprentice.Miss Benanis and Siris lead the "Golden Dawn Opera House" in Willendale City, and have completed her initial education. Now Her Royal Highness is fascinated by the power of the witch, and the idea of ​​fighting for power has been postponed.

But it just so happened that this morning, Margaret needed to attend the meeting, so she had already left. Now only Miss Sylvia and a few maids are left in the house. Otherwise, the appearance of Xia De and the ghoul just now would definitely cause even bigger disturbances. .

Xia De didn't have time to say hello to Miss Sylvia who had reunited after a long absence, so he asked her if she had a suitable place to talk.Afterwards, he carried the chained ghoul on his back and followed the witch through the corridor to the basement, which was also her and Margaret's laboratory.

Xia De activated the [Spatial Stability Halo] again, and Miss Sylvia also arranged a ceremony to prohibit space movement.After confirming that the ghoul will not escape again through the question of "blink if you agree", Xia De finally loosened his chains.

Sitting on a stool against the wall, the ghoul who performed the double ceremony of "Space Confinement" and "Undead Killer" under him finally took out the roast chicken from his mouth.

Although his appearance is terrifying, his expression and the rationality of intelligent life in his eyes are just like normal people.Nicholas Green sighed, his cloudy yellow eyes looked at Shad sharply, and then asked in an extremely hoarse voice:

"You just said that you know Helena and Sauron?"

He was finally willing to speak.

Xia De stood in front of the ghoul and talked to him, while the curious Miss Sylvia was sitting at the experimental table not far away. The alcohol lamp on the table was still heating a liquid with a green fluorescent color.

Xia De didn't completely relax his vigilance. Fortunately, with the great witch behind him, he could relax a little bit psychologically.

"Yes, I am friends with them. They still run your family inn, and I know about Edwards."

Xia De asked puzzledly:
"I don't understand, what did you run just now? I said it wouldn't hurt you."

The ghoul took a few mouthfuls of roast chicken before continuing to answer:

"Whether you hurt me has nothing to do with whether I talk to you. Although I have lived underground for a long time, I am not ignorant of what happened on both sides of Green Lake recently. You are either a member of the church or a member of other ring magician organizations. I don't want to be in contact with you, yes, I don't want to be in contact with anyone."

"why?"

"Because you are definitely not the opponents of the ancestors."

The cloudy yellow eyes look like beasts, but the soul behind them has perfect sanity:
"I have become like this, and I am inseparable from my ancestors. After I died, I revived in the coffin, and then dug the soil. I accidentally discovered the ancient tomb, and found a complete set of alchemy and potion equipment, as well as There is corresponding book knowledge."

While chewing his food, he asked Shad:
"Sir, do you think this is really a coincidence?"

He answered his own question himself:
"I've been dead for more than 20 years. I know the history of the family earlier than you. You can't beat your ancestors, absolutely can't."

He shook his swollen head, and did not forget to take another bite of the roast chicken:
"So, I try not to get in touch with anyone and just wait for the day when the family will be reunited."

"You are a pessimist."

Shad commented:
"I have seen quite a few descendants of the Edwards family. But except for you, everyone is working hard to prepare for the final event, planning various countermeasures with your ancestors as opponents. Why are you so pessimistic?"

"Because I have seen the ancestors."

The words of the ghoul Nicholas Green immediately startled Shad and Miss Sylvia.

"what?"

The witch couldn't help standing up too:

"Have you seen the thirteen-ring fortune teller? Is it inside or outside the island?"

"Outside the island, in the ancient tomb where I live."

He didn't lie to both of them:

"That was the second winter after I woke up. He took the initiative to see me and told me some family history. At first, like the living family members you mentioned, I wanted to resist him, but he It easily subdued me. At that time... I knew his strength."

The ghoul let out a long breath, his body trembling with instinctive fear.But in fact, undead creatures should not have the emotion of fear, so Nicholas Green's current form may be related to the experiment of the thirteen-ring fortune teller.

"He talked with me for a long time, roughly told the history of the Edwards family, and asked if I wanted to go back with him. I didn't agree, and he didn't force me, but let me live in that ancient tomb, Occasionally, I can help him with things and say I will go back one day."

"What mission?"

Miss Sylvia asked.

"Every few months, I would help him steal specific corpses from the Green Lake City Public Cemetery and replace them with other corpses. Because the total number of corpses remains the same, and I only operate underground, I will also steal from the underground. The body was transferred to the water ghosts in the lake, so no one noticed it all the time."

He didn't hide what he had done:
"Are you going to accuse me of stealing the corpse? Let me emphasize first that I don't eat people or corpses. I only eat meat from cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks."

After speaking, he took another bite of the grilled chicken.

"I need a list of the corpses you stole. And, did your ancestor say anything else?"

Xia De grasped the point, the ghoul nodded, but did not say it immediately:

"You have to promise to let me leave in a while. I still live near the cemetery. If you want to find me, go to the broken house and call my name."

"no problem."

Xia De nodded. He didn't intend to limit the freedom of the father of the two brothers and sisters Green.As for stealing corpses, although this is definitely wrong, one cannot ask too much from an inhuman ghoul.

The ghoul didn't make Xia De swear, but said directly:

"The ancestor said a lot back then, and I have gradually figured out some things over the years. He intends to increase the types of family members."

"what?"

Xia De didn't understand this sentence, and Miss Sylvia frowned slightly. The big witch obviously thought of something:
"Does he want to plan some kind of large-scale ceremony? Family members are ritual symbols, so there need to be enough types?"
