I draw a card first

Chapter 114 Old Seals and Monsters
I tried to stir up the topic several times, but the three people on the opposite side, including the "hamster", didn't talk to me. Ivan, who was a little bored in the car, looked at the hazy scenery outside the glass window and began to wander.

His thoughts were racing, and he couldn't help but start to think deeply about this seemingly modern world, but there were monsters wandering in the dark.

Why is this happening?

He never felt that the dungeon world must be a story edited like a program, everything is caused by pure settings.

The existence of the world itself must conform to certain logical laws. Even if the Creator God has a big brain, there must be its core rules to follow.

This is a monster themed copy.

Since human society can continue in peace, instead of falling into flames, blood and destruction, behind the darkness, there must be some kind of light silently carrying the burden, isolating the two sides, and maintaining the smooth operation of everything.

At first, Ivan thought that this power came from the secular government, but from the perspective of the police station, it was obviously not the case, because these people were too inexperienced.

The secret forces of the royal family do not seem to be very reliable from all aspects.

Instead, the secret association in front of him whose members called themselves "investigators" seemed to have similar tendencies.

"I just don't know what the number and types of monsters are?"

"If there are a lot of them, plus a big guy like Mr. Ke, if the investigators are at the level of the guys in front of them, they probably won't be dead enough."

Of course, according to his extremely limited memory of the Cthulhu mythology, it seems that guys like the Old Ones are sealed and cannot easily appear. Instead, most of the time, those human cultists are doing things by themselves.

So, you are the same as your colleagues in another world, and you are specialized in racial infighting MAX┑(￣Д￣)┍

The reality of any world is never quite what cool games and stories show.

Perhaps many young people will think that cults, gods, monsters, etc. are very cool and handsome, both compelling and full of desire and depravity, so they can't wait to become a member of them.

But through Earl's real understanding of what these guys do, Ivan has only one evaluation of them

——A group of real scumbags who are not worth dying for.

There is no bottom line, human nature can be said, all of them are dead, but it is a great thing for the entire human race
At this time, the raindrops outside the window became more and more dense.

The carriage continued to advance silently on the empty and deserted streets, and the surrounding scenery became more and more familiar. Soon, a small three-story building appeared in sight.

——They returned to Alvin's house.

"It's such a horrible weather, my clothes are soaked by the rain pouring in from the collar!"

The person in charge of driving the car was the one who complained softly at the beginning that "Hamster" was unreliable. He shook his blouse in embarrassment, muttered in a low voice, and at the same time turned around and opened the car door.

Everyone got out of the car, and then walked into Aiwen's house with ease. The most amazing thing was that they even had the door keys.

"Is this not my house, but a place of public gathering?"

With some curious guesses, Alvin followed a few people and walked in with an umbrella.

The fireplace was raised and coffee was brewed again. With the wafting aroma, the four investigators who took off their robes and sat on the sofa finally relaxed a little, and their guard against Ivan was also a little less.

After a brief conversation, now Aiwen finally knows the names and identities of his four companions.

They are "Intermediate Investigator", temporary captain Edwin; "Junior Investigator", team member Conor; "Junior Investigator", team member Babolot; and "Hamster" sister, "Mystic Scholar" Lisa.

As for him, he is a "senior investigator" who is said to be well-known in the entire circle and has a certain legendary status.

It needs to be stated here that the so-called grades of investigators assessed by the organization only represent their own experience, experience, etc., rather than any actual position.

So even if Aiwen is a senior investigator, he can't command these people in front of him, but may need to be commanded.

Sure enough, after some inquiries, Aiwen quickly confirmed that he was one of the members of the five-person team arranged by the organization, but he was just a local receptionist and a "queen" who brought newcomers.

Two juniors and one scholar are all newcomers.

Except for the captain who spoke out at the beginning, these three even met him for the first time.

"Then can you tell me about my past?"

Aiwen said kindly to Lisa, who was peeping at him frequently, as if she was watching some legendary character
Originally, there was an acquaintance named Edwin, the temporary captain, and he should be approached when inquiring about information. However, the fact was that the more familiar one was, the more one was wary of him.

After all, you can't hide your abnormal personality, habits, etc., and every time you get close, you can only get a guarded and surveillance look.

So in the end, Ai Wen found a certain "hamster" that was easy to deceive at first glance, and could be abducted with a bowl of Mala Tang.

As a newcomer who participated in the mission for the first time, she was naturally the least vigilant of him among the four, so drinking the coffee someone handed her, the girl was quickly tricked out by him with a lot of useful information.

In addition to some legendary adventures about her predecessor (true or not to be verified), Lisa, as a mystic scholar, gave him a lot of common sense about the monster world by the way out of her professional nature.

The first is the standard "talisman" that everyone has.

The correct name of this thing should be called "Old Seal", which is a treasure specially used to resist the spiritual pollution of monsters and drive them away.

Without this thing, ordinary people would go crazy just seeing those weird guys, let alone resisting monsters.

Even some special types can gradually turn the human beings into some kind of monsters, and they are irreversible. In short, all kinds of weird additional effects are more disgusting than the monsters themselves.

Therefore, the old seal has become a necessary item for investigators.

As for why Ai Wen didn't have one with him, but instead brought a fake one, I don't know.
Secondly, she told Ivan the names and characteristics of some common monsters.

Like the monster that he made directly into a shredded chicken, it is speculated that it should be a type called "Bayaki". At the same time, there are deep divers who look a bit like murlocs, human-faced dwarves, human-faced rats, love The super-sized spider that spins the web, the cold spider, and more.

One of the monsters called "Ghoul" especially caught Ivan's attention.

Ghouls are humanoid monsters with stretchy rubber-like skin, hoof-like feet, dog-like faces, and pointy claws that prowl graves.

The human beings attacked by them are very likely to become ghouls, even if they become corpses, there is a certain probability of "dead transformation".

"In other words, the guy who killed those people is likely to be a ghoul?"

Aiwen thought about the appearance of those corpses after fraudulent corpses, and it was indeed very similar to what Lisa described.
Hmm, pretty ugly.
