Tribulation of Mysteries - Chapter 226

[Chapter 225 Moving Castle (5200 monthly tickets plus more updates)]

January 2, 1027 of the New Calendar.

There was an atmosphere of celebration in the shops of Plmouth and Aaron attended several of the great festive parades.

But after night, the wandering travelers will find that the prosperity and wealth of this city have nothing to do with them.

They tried their best, but still couldn’t get a foothold in Pulmouth.

He could only wander around, enduring the contempt and expulsion of the patrolmen, and used torn newspapers under the bridge to resist the severe cold.

Of course Aaron didn’t have to be a homeless man, but he still felt a little confused looking at the huge city taking advantage of the night.

‘It is said that Pulmouth is home to young people with dreams from all over the UK. It is known as the dream of a metropolis, but there are very few who can actually successfully realize their dreams…’

‘Most of them are the result of hard work and sweat, Even blood and tears are shed in this city, leaving sadly after old age or serious illness, or even dying here directly…”

He glanced at the scavenger passing by and felt that the other person looked to be in his thirties, but his eyes were dull. , as if all hope had been lost.

Aaron sighed and walked towards a bar that exuded a warm glow.

On the bar sign, the name ‘Hunter Pub’ is written.

‘The nightlife that belongs to the extraordinary has just begun…’

He entered the bar. Since Inves also had a holiday during the New Year, there were still quite a lot of customers inside.

There were drunken men lying on the ground, all of them drunk, but no one cared about them now.

Aaron noticed that there was a row of wanted posters posted on one wall of the bar.

“Suke Hood, fraudster, reward of 20 pounds, 1 pound for valid clues!”

“Murphy Deyke, murderer, reward of 50 pounds, 2 pounds for valid clues!”

“‘Savage’ Ba Phil, with an ominous surname, serious injury, reward of 15 pounds…”

Under the wanted notice, some had the seal of Pulmouth City Police Headquarters, commonly known as ‘Momora Field’, but some did not and replaced it. There is a line of small words – ‘If you are interested, please contact Mr. So-and-so. ‘

Sometimes, the subject issuing the task will become a rich man’s butler, or a detective agency.

Aaron knew that Pulmouth’s population was exploding too fast and there were too few police officers, which led to the proliferation of various crimes without effective solutions, forcing him to seek supplementary support from civilian forces.

From this, many detective agencies, security companies, and bounty hunters were born.

“Yesterday, ‘Mad’ Carl broke into the Blood Snake Gang’s casino and pulled out ‘Six-Fingered’ Sosuolo. He is really a madman. Aren’t he afraid of retaliation?”

“You are not crazy if you are a bounty hunter. How?”

“But it’s not good to be too crazy. I haven’t seen ‘Giant’ Lamy for a long time. He may have been cut into pieces and thrown into the Dosom River.”

The Dosom River is a river. The largest river passing through Pulmouth, empties directly into the Dark Sea.

There are many docks on both sides of the river.

Of course…it is also regarded by gangsters as a good place to kill people and dump their bodies.

“Give me a glass of lemonade.”

Aaron came to the bar, letting these sounds penetrate his ears, and thought thoughtfully: “Being a bounty hunter is still very dangerous… Once you encounter an extraordinary criminal, eight out of ten Yes, the other two may have already been exposed to mystery, and may be exposed to mystery because of this… Well, this should be a career suitable for me. “

Regardless of his own level of essence or his divination ability, Aaron can complete the task at an astonishing speed and become rich.

“But… I, the majestic Earl of Green Forest, the ‘Immortal’ who is feared by the Investigation Bureau, and a rich man with 8,000 pounds in cash, want to be a mercenary or bounty hunter? I must be crazy!”

Aaron complained in his heart and drank. Take a sip of lemonade.

After waiting for a moment, he stood up and walked to the bathroom.

The bathroom in the bar is very large, with rows of independent toilets.

Aaron counted and entered the seventh bathroom door. He saw the stained toilet in front of him and frowned: “I really don’t know how to find a place.”

He did not untie his belt, but took it from the ‘Carnivore’s Luggage’ He took out a silver-white half-face mask and placed it on his face.

Then, Aaron turned around and looked at the back of the bathroom door. There was a mysterious symbol with a semicircle in a triangle and a line running through it.

In the knowledge of the spiritual world, it has the meaning of ‘space’, ‘teleportation’, ‘opening the door’ and so on.

It just looks like this symbol is a little crooked, like a child’s graffiti.

His expression remained unchanged as he clicked on the tip of the triangle, the middle of the semicircle, and the end of the line.

The next moment, as Aaron opened the door again, what appeared in front of him was no longer the original men’s restroom, but a huge hall!

The hall is surrounded by curtains, making it difficult for people to know where they are. There is a lantern hung on the wall at regular intervals, blooming with warm brilliance.

There are various doors on the walls, and from time to time, extraordinary people wearing cloaks or showing their faces openly will walk out of the doors, nodding to each other, or showing friendly smiles.

“Happy New Year! New here?”

A small man walked by, a smile appeared on his mouth under the black iron mask: “Welcome to the Black Queen District!”

…

‘This secret party doesn’t look simple… …’

The information here is naturally obtained from Cornelius.

According to what the other party said, as long as you complete the previous actions at a fixed location, you can enter this place through the ‘door’ and conduct transactions with other mysterious people.

‘This is the Black Queen, but the Black Queen is more than just here… In fact, extraordinary people will hide in all the mysterious gatherings and areas in Pulmouth, collectively known as the ‘Black Queen’. Ordinary people can often be seen here, Most of them are occult enthusiasts and folklorists. The method of

‘

opening’ the door does not require infusion of spirituality, which virtually broadens the scope of customers and makes it possible for ordinary people to enter.

‘I have to say that the owner here is very caring and very powerful… Maybe he has some tacit understanding with the General Bureau of Investigation? ‘

Aaron’s eyes instantly turned pure white, and his palms unconsciously moved across the walls of the hall.

‘At least a non-human magical item… essentially a palace? This is the first time I have seen such a big monster! ‘

‘The main function is – ‘teleportation’. No more than 20 ‘teleportation points’ can be set up within a maximum block area to transfer people who meet the conditions in or out… It is indeed very suitable for a secret transaction. The stronghold. ‘

‘Its name is – ‘Halsey’s Moving Castle’, and the negative effect is that its owner may be randomly teleported to any place within a wide range of Pulmouth at any time…’
