Calamity Crown

But he didn't say anything more.

In the corridor, the conductor's footsteps could be heard.

"Dear guest, your trip has been delayed."

"Because of an accident, we temporarily need to rest for one night in a nearby town, please move."

"Of course!"

"All the necessary expenses will be borne by us!"

The train conductor said respectfully.

In this regard, Goethe did not refuse.

The robbers before and the patrols after, the many corpses made it impossible for the train to move on.

And the guy who made the attempt should receive news from here soon.

What will the other party do?

If it was him, he would definitely think about defeat before thinking about victory.

Streaks of defeat don't trouble him.

Instead, it will let the opponent enter the next trap.

Moreover, it is far more deadly than before.

and so……

"The other party will also arrange in the town!"

Goethe guessed and looked at Swart.

Suddenly, a bad premonition appeared in the sheriff's heart.

next moment--

"Swart, I need you to rush to Harest overnight, find Credor, the head of the 'Keeper of Secrets' northern border, and tell him everything that happened here."

"Then, let the branch chief bring someone to support him!"

Goethe said.

Swart wanted to refuse, but when he saw Goethe's unquestionable gaze, he could only nod in agreement.

The sheriff grabbed some food and water, turned directly out of the window of the carriage, and disappeared on the side of the train while taking advantage of the chaos.

Beidi Pavilion

"Can this coward do it?"

"Otherwise, I'll go!"

Sheila recommended herself.

Goethe remained silent.

Why do you think I chose cowards but not you?

With a groan in his heart, Goethe said this.

"You have your mission."

"is it?"

"What mission?"

Shira's attention was immediately drawn.

"You'll know then."

Goethe was perfunctory.

After that, the two drove to the town in the only carriage with a carriage in the town-this carriage was the carriage of the mayor of the town, and most of the rest of the people rode in donkey carts pulled by straw or simply walked.

It was the mayor's coachman who drove for them.

The young coachman, obviously new to the world, was shocked by Sheila's appearance and blushed all the way.

When facing outsiders, the cold and silent Xila obviously fit her face perfectly.

Even the mayor of the small town who has seen some of the world can't help but marvel.

As for the train conductor?

In his memory, it seemed that there was no such beautiful lady on the train.

However, he was not stupid enough to question Goethe.

The lunch was arranged by the train conductor, and the chef on the train brought the ingredients and borrowed the kitchen of the mayor's house to make it.

"Thank you for coming."

"It really makes the humble house flourish."

"It is an honor to receive you."

The mayor of the small town racked his brains and racked his brains to find out just a few words.

The mayor's wife stood beside her husband, smiling.

This is a 40-year-old lady, dressed in plain clothes and similar to the surrounding townspeople. Unlike her nervous husband, this lady is quite calm and has a good face. Her eyes are gentle and polite, which makes people see I feel good about it.

And their daughter is a young girl.

At the moment, she was quietly looking at Shira.

The girl who inherited her mother's beauty has always been the dream lover of the young people in the small town, and she is quite confident in her appearance.

However, at this time, when Xila appeared, the girl had a shock.

How could someone be so good-looking? !

The girl thought from the bottom of her heart.

Even though lunch had started, the girl still didn't look away.

Sheila's elegance and decency made the girl feel ashamed.

She became less confident.

This made the girl get up and leave the table when she was halfway through her lunch.

"Ella!"

The girl's father shouted in displeasure.

"Sorry, I'll go take a look."

After the girl's mother apologized, she immediately got up and chased after her.

"Two honorable guests, I'm sorry, it's my recent negligence of discipline that made Ella become like this-but I can't blame me, who made the town suddenly appear... nothing, everything is fine , let's eat first."

The town mayor complained.

However, after the words came out, the mayor obviously knew that he had said something wrong, so he wanted to change the subject.

However, under the gaze of Goethe, he had to continue the previous topic.

The mayor loosened his collar and spoke with great difficulty.

"Man-eating monsters appear in the town!"

"monster?"

Goethe suddenly became interested.

Chapter 4 Coping!

"Yes, monster!"

"It appeared half a year ago!"

"Someone first discovered that the cemetery had been excavated. We thought it was a grave robber, so we ambush there. Then we saw a terrifying monster - 5-6 meters high, with antlers, and bullets couldn't kill it!"

"The sheriff of the small town reported it immediately, and Hallest sent a lord, who easily dealt with this monster, but a monster similar to this monster appeared again two days ago."

"It should be the child or companion of the previous monster!"

"However, please rest assured, I have already reported it, and Hallest will send someone to deal with it soon!"

The town mayor said confidently.

Goethe nodded outwardly in agreement.

But in the bottom of my heart, I already understood that this was one of the backhands prepared by the previous tempter.

The monster that was killed half a year ago.

After half a year, a child or companion will emerge?

The monster himself didn't believe these words.

After lunch, Goethe and Sila were taken to the guest room to rest.

It is two guest rooms.

After expressing their thanks again, Goethe and Sheila looked at each other and walked into their respective rooms.

Then Sila climbed over the window and entered Goethe's room.

"The mayor lied."

Shira said as soon as she came in.

"Ah."

Goethe made no objection.

Although there is a high probability that the other party did not lie, they just concealed some important things.

Example: number of deaths.

But it has nothing to do with him.

What he cared about was how the planner would use this monster to deal with him.

"What do you know about this monster?"

Goethe asked.

"Wendigo!"

"A man-eating monster with a deer head and a skeleton-like body wrapped in ice crystals. Not only is it extremely tall, but it also moves so fast that ordinary people can't see it clearly."

"This kind of monster usually only appears in the cold winter of the northern region, but it will not dig up graves to eat corpses, but eat fresh ones."

"So, the monster should have directly attacked the residents of the town, rather than digging graves."

"However, the most interesting thing about it is..."

"Evil thoughts possessed!"

Sheila said, her face became serious.

"Possessed by evil thoughts?"

Goethe narrowed his eyes.

"Well, an ability that can possess an ordinary person and turn its temptation into a similar one. During the possession, the possessed person has a mind, but they stand on the side of the monster."

"Simply put, it is to have reason, and become cunning and bottomless."

Sheila explained.

"Is there a way to defend against this kind of evil thoughts?"

Goethe continued to ask.

Sheila gave Goethe a strange look.

As the guardian of the 'Mad King's Legacy', how could he not know such things?
