Chapter 47 The Growing Miss Gwen

Latest website: In the free city of Andorra, in the luxurious room of the "Four Seasons" hotel.

Miss Gwen, who is nearly 1.9 meters tall, is arranging a ceremony to strengthen the "seal" on a silver straight sword with a one-eyed mouth at the top of the hilt.

This is the "Level 1" sealed object "Xi Yin Sword" that Abner lent her for self-defense. It can only be used if the height is over 1.8 meters.

Only when you can pick it up over two meters can its full power be unleashed.

Moreover, the one-eyed giant mouth at the top of the sword's hilt is still a chattering "chatter". If the holder does not respond to it, perhaps at a critical moment, the "Sword of Xiyin" will suddenly give up resistance and even attack the owner;

But if the holder is willing to talk to the head statue, he will be teetering on the edge of madness...

Therefore, Abner's suggestion to Miss Gwen is to use a ritual to "seal" the human head that obviously has "alive" qualities.

Although this would definitely result in the loss of part of the power of this sealed object, since Miss Gwen is less than two meters tall, she cannot fully exert it, so it does not matter if she loses a little more.

As for the method of "sealing", Abner naturally took care of it. For this reason, Miss Gwen also learned the honorable name of a "secret" existence:

"O Lord of Dead Souls from Eternal Darkness;

“You are the Lord of the Dead, the King of Conquerors;

"You are the god of war and destruction."

Although she was instinctively afraid and wary of this honorable name that obviously had the "true god" level, out of trust in Abner, she still hesitated and prayed to him, and successfully obtained support for the "Sealing Ceremony" the power of.

Moreover, nothing else terrible happened, which somewhat reassured Miss Gwen.

In fact, only "wild" extraordinary people like Miss Gwen who are "self-taught" by relying on some occult books

Only then would they make a similar decision... If it were Lydia and Tran, no matter how much they trusted Abner, they would never dare to establish contact with a hidden existence of unknown origin.

After completing the ceremony to strengthen the "seal", Miss Gwen breathed a sigh of relief and put the long sword back into the scabbard.

For Gwen, who is far away from the "Black Throne" and cannot use its power to "transform" into a ship girl, this "

"The Sword of Xiyin" is the greatest guarantee of her safety.

After packing up the ritual items in the room, Miss Gwen removed the "spiritual wall" and opened the door to let Lydia and Tran, who were waiting outside, enter the room.

"Tran, Lydia, you are back...how is the situation?" Miss Gwen asked after pouring two cups of coffee for them.

"I made some vague inquiries about the situation in the town of Lanseer... Although this town has a long history, it does have some problems..." Lydia took a sip of coffee and continued in organized language. "It is said that the residents there have been adhering to some ancient rituals for thousands of years to pray for good weather and the rotation of the four seasons."

"In addition, it is said that the townspeople there have been enforcing orders and prohibitions since a long time ago and are completely obedient to the mayor and other officials in the town. They have the characteristics of an 'army'... This is not like what we had speculated before. A group of Sehgal rebels secretly occupied the place.

"The reason why Joanna and Simon disappeared in the small town of Lancel may be more complicated than we thought."

"I can understand praying for good weather...but why do we need to pray for the seasons? Isn't this a natural law?" Miss Gwen asked, frowning.

"I don't know..." But according to the information of our vampire family, Andorra seems to have worshiped an evil spirit called the 'God of Four Seasons' in the ignorant era long ago... Maybe Is it because of this?

"By the way, the reason why the hotel we are currently in is called the Four Seasons seems to be because of this legend." Li

Dia put down the cup and said uncertainly.

"Is that so..." Miss Gwen nodded thoughtfully, looked at Tran again, and asked softly, "What about you?"

Where's the side?"

"Originally, there were no tasks or entrustments about the town of Lancel in the pubs and bars... But luckily, there happened to be a lady who wanted to hire mercenaries to protect her when she went to that town, so I entrusted this Grabbed it." Tran recounted what happened in the Chalk Tavern in detail.

"Is it too much of a coincidence?" After listening to Tran's words, Lydia questioned, "Have you investigated the background of that lady?"

"Naturally, I investigated..." From her appearance to her conversation, the lady had a clear Loen style, and she claimed to be an external professor of the History Department of Trier University. This time she went to Lanser. The town is also for studying the folk customs there.

"In addition, she also has a male assistant with her. Her accent sounds like someone from the Intis-Toulon area, and her appearance and personality also have typical Intis characteristics.

"In short, they probably have nothing to do with Sehgal or Andorra..."

As soon as Tran said this, she was interrupted by Miss Gwen: "'Yes, but it can't be used as evidence... You go and investigate.

What’s their background?”

"Investigation..." I used the "Wizard" method to trace a series of trajectories before and after they entered Andorra.

, their various procedures were complete, and they all passed my divination and confirmation, without any problems... In addition, I also asked the messenger to ask Betty who stayed in Trier, and she also came from Trier. Er University found information about those two people, which was completely consistent with what I saw.

"So, I think their purpose may not be pure, but the identity must be true. After all, it cannot be faked..."

Tran said confidently.

What he didn't know was that it was extremely easy for Abner, the "cherubic angel," to manipulate "information" and create a fake identity. He did it smoothly without even using the "Memory Theater", and even Many witnesses could be found to confirm that Fors was the youngest external professor at Trier University.

Of course, this method is still far worse than the "consultation coverage" of "Memory Theater" and will leave many loopholes, but it is not a big problem to hide it from Tran and Gwen in a short time.

Sure enough, after hearing Tran's multiple levels of verification, Miss Gwen nodded with satisfaction, and then said after careful consideration:

"Since they are not directly related to the town of Lancel, we don't care about their purpose. We only need to use their identities to enter the town and retrieve Simon and Josephina.

"Well, if we can, we should protect the safety of the professor and her assistant."

Having said this, she paused and then asked, "Where will we meet and when will we set off?"

"At one o'clock in the afternoon, near the West Gate... By the way, the professor originally wanted to take a carriage, but because the waterway can connect to a small pier near Lanser, so at my suggestion, they decided to take a boat ...This can greatly reduce the harassment of bandits and rebels, although we are not afraid of it." Tran answered truthfully.

"There's still more than an hour..." Miss Gwen glanced at the clock and ordered Lydia, "Let the assault team

The members finished their lunch as soon as possible, and we gathered in the west of the city half an hour later. "

As a backup "Pirate General", Miss Gwen's subordinates will naturally no longer have only two Extraordinaries, Tran and Lydia, as before.

A sparkling broad river flows between the plains and mountains, and large ships, either gorgeous or loaded with cargo, pass through the water gate in the east of the city and sail towards the dock of Andorra la Vella.

Many coolies gathered on both sides of the river, shouting slogans, dragging the ropes, and pulling the big ships to their destinations step by step.

In the wind that would feel cold to normal people, these trackers were all naked from the waist up, and there was a faint white steam around their skin.

Although Andorra La Vella faces the Sea of ​​Mist to the west and can barely be regarded as a port city, its main urban area is not close to the sea, so these ships need to go upstream and dock at the inland terminal.

Originally, a large part of the sea-going ships were powered by steam and there was no need for trackers to pull the fibers. However, the River Engineering Association and

The Tugboat Owners Association resolutely resisted steam ships, and the Andorra City Hall had no choice but to sign a decree prohibiting sea-going ships from turning on steam engines after entering inland waterways.

"If I hadn't left home to become a mercenary, maybe I would have become one of them..." A member of Gwen's commando team couldn't help but sigh after seeing this scene.

His name is Alex, a native of Andorra, and now he is a Sequence 9 "Hunter".

On the other side, Abner, who was accompanying Forsi and Miss Gwen to communicate, turned his head and glanced at Mr. Alex, then nodded thoughtfully.
