"The city lord is very kind and appears at the New Year celebration every year..."
"The Lord of the City is very generous. The weak and sick will receive extra care..."
"The city lord is very tolerant. The prison in the city has been abandoned..."
"The Lord of the City is very powerful. After taking charge of Lanhai Castle, he increased the fees for entering and exiting Lanhai Mountain. Therefore, he also led the wizards of the City Lord's Mansion on several expeditions to drive away those timid and cunning groups of monsters... "
The enthusiastic coachman was still talking, but between the hands of Raymond, who was sitting in the carriage with a serious expression, there was a lot of fluffy energy gathering that could not be seen by ordinary people.
This is an advanced 'evil detection' technique. After being released, it can detect all evil creatures within a range of three hundred meters, making them unable to hide.
Originally, Raymond had not thought of using this technique.
But after the light carriage he hired drove for three blocks, all the adults he saw through the windows seemed too kind and peaceful, and the children who should have been lively and playful were also very well-behaved. When he was surprised, he finally thought of a possibility.
Because the guess that Wu Ran had in his mind was too scary, Raymond immediately released this advanced technique to prove that his guess was just an illusion.
The spell that was not detectable by ordinary people slowly took shape, but what it showed made Raymond's heart sink!
But just when he was about to expand the area explored by the technique, the light carriage beneath him shook in vain, and the coachman turned his head and apologized almost at the same time. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. The ground barrier just now is the sign of entering the upper city area. You can't go so fast here..."
At this point, the carriage and horse's eyes turned to Raymond's hands. There was still a bit of surprise in his expression, and he thought about it for a moment before saying embarrassedly. "Sir, it seems that you are an artist. Your hands look whiter and more beautiful than those of noble ladies..."
The previous vibration of the carriage caused the spell to be disrupted and disintegrated, but Raymond, who already knew the general result, did not try to investigate again. He was not angry when he heard the coachman's joking compliment. Instead, his eyes showed a trace of pity, and he turned his gaze back to the window.
At this time, the carriage had already pulled him into the Shangcheng District of the South City of Lanhai Castle, which was the area where the rich and nobles of Nancheng lived.
The streets here have become wider and cleaner, while the buildings on both sides of the road have become sparse but more chic and exquisite, and the nobles are enjoying afternoon tea time in the gardens. There was actually someone who knew the driver, and they waved to the carriage from a distance through the garden fence.
As if Raymond was an ordinary person, he could see the gazes on the buildings on both sides of the street, and he could also see the comfort and friendliness in people's expressions, and even some young girls hidden behind the windows in the buildings. The shyness and calmness in their expressions. It also makes people feel an emotion called ‘vitality’!
After looking through the gaps between the buildings, Raymond could already see the city lord's mansion in the middle of the canyon, as well as the heavily armed city guards who stood at their posts.
But the tranquility and peace around him made him feel even more depressed. The emotion emanating from him unintentionally seemed to affect the driver of the carriage, making him stop talking and focus on driving the carriage forward. .
Time passed slowly while rushing on the road. Along the way, Raymond understood that the south city area of Lanhai Castle was artificially divided into three areas: upper, middle and lower. The place he entered was the slums in the lower city, and after the carriage he hired crossed the upper city and entered the business district, Raymond paid the fare and got out of the car.
According to the coachman's introduction, the commercial district in Nancheng District is the most prosperous place. After entering along the main road, Raymond found that the flow of people here was quite bustling, and every shop in the commercial district was clean and tidy, and the clerks were enthusiastic. It's not annoying, and the customers are friendly and calm.
The business district, which should have given people a crowded and noisy feeling, actually made people feel that they had entered an elegant and peaceful atmosphere. It also made Raymond's mood calm down unconsciously.
But when this feeling just started to arise in his heart, Raymond, who stopped in vain, released his feeling!
As soon as the invisible and traceless perception left the body, wisps of energy turbulence occurred around Raymond's body, and a faint black energy was also revealed due to Raymond's sensory contact!
Looking at the black air around him that was shielded from perception, Raymond sighed secretly and his eyes shone with red light. Then he turned his attention back to the business district where he was.
The originally clean, tidy and quiet streets turned out to be old and decayed after being re-examined by Raymond. Although the roads did not have any potholes, they were obviously not what they had seen before!
The customers on the street have also lost their original elegance and indifference. They are like mindless puppets, wandering around in tattered clothes with dull expressions.
When Raymond turned around and cast his sights on the main city above the canyon, he finally discovered that the city guards stationed on the city wall were actually mummies wearing armor!
The mood became heavier, but before Raymond could think about the reason, the crisp and rhythmic applause of his friends sounded behind him, and an extremely relaxed voice also came into his ears.
"Hehe, you can not only sneak into my Lanhai Castle, but also detect the real situation here so quickly. This sir, you are really amazing, amazing..."
The praise in his tone seemed very sincere. Raymond, who turned around, immediately saw the person standing in the middle of the street.
He was thin but a little tall. He was wearing the exquisite dress that the nobles liked most at the dinner. He held a crystal ball in his left hand and a cane in his right hand.
He looked ordinary but had a very bright smile. It was just that the golden wig on his shoulders and the huge badge on his chest that was obviously a family emblem made this person's dress look extremely strange.
When Raymond turned around, the man with a bright smile greeted Raymond with the etiquette between nobles, and then said. "I am the Lord of Lanhai Castle, Trini. May I ask your real name?"
"You have turned the whole city into this?"
Ignoring the question in Raymond's tone, Lord Trini smiled and pointed around with his cane, seeming a little emotional. "Yes, this is my city, everything here belongs to me..."
As soon as he said this, Lord Trini, who seemed to know that he had said something wrong, smiled apologetically and corrected it immediately. "Of course, you don't belong here, so I take back my description..."
Since his whereabouts had been revealed, Raymond released his perception. After checking the shops around him and the residents on the street who seemed to be unable to see him, he realized that his previous guess was not wrong at all. There was no living person in the southern part of Lanhai Castle where he was.
Many ordinary residents within the range of perception have become like zombies. Their souls seem to be imprisoned. They all wander in the city with their bodies. Relying on the most primitive behavioral instincts, they are still maintaining the appearance of the city.
Facing the city lord Trini, who looks like an old-school nobleman instead of a wizard, Raymond is not prepared to hide. "I am Raymond. I came here to ask for the wizards who attacked the Winged Tiger Tribe's residence!"
"Oh my God! You are the octopus hand Raymond who turned the Supreme Council upside down?"
After the city lord Trini finished speaking, he immediately stepped back and beat his chest with his right hand holding the cane to salute again, and then he promised happily. "Your will will be implemented in Lanhai Castle, and you can take them all away when you leave!"
Such a straightforward promise made Raymond very surprised...
