Chapter 277: Shepherd of the Dead (Part 2)
A figure slowly stepped out of the darkness.
The other party's trousers and jacket, the golden hair is shaved from the temples on both sides, leaving only the top of the head, but the hair is definitely not short, it can even be said to be very long, if it is not tied with a metal headband, it can definitely be shawl And down.
A pair of pupils, brown eyes as small as needles, were looking at Qin Ran with a curious attitude.
"2567?"
"Sue the dead bird?"
"The king who rules the land?"
The other party asked three questions in a row, which made Qin Ran uneasy.
Then, without waiting for Qin Ran's answer, the other party waved his hand.
"Okay, you don't need to explain to me, I'm just a messenger—on December 1st, the 'Shepherd of the Dead' is looking forward to your arrival!"
As soon as the other party waved his hand, a black invitation letter was shot straight at the front windshield of the pickup.
However, just as it was about to touch the glass, the invitation turned around and entered Kieran's driver's seat.
After that, the other party waved his hand and retreated into the darkness.
The pickup truck's engine roared again.
The headlights and street lights came on again.
Dark clouds also parted from the moon.
The due light appeared at this moment.
Qin Ran squinted his eyes and scanned his surroundings, and the lights on the street in the distance also appeared again.
The moment before the other party appeared, he had already spotted the other party. The appearance that seemed to melt into the darkness was amazing, but it was nothing to Kieran who possessed the extraordinary level of [Stealth].
What really made Qin Ran curious was that the other party seemed to be able to block the electricity?
Or... to block the power of technology!
Of course, the latter is just a guess.
"'Dead Shepherd'?"
"What organization is this?"
Qin Ran picked up the black invitation letter, and what caught his eyes was a skull with its mouth open, and two wisps of blue-green soul fire in its eye sockets.
In the invitation letter, it is written in mysterious words——
sue bird
Er999.12.1, we look forward to your visit.
shepherd of the dead
Er999.11.4 late at night
"You just wrote it and sent it to me?"
"But without writing down the address..."
"Trouble is coming!"
Qin Ran looked at the end of the invitation letter and couldn't help curling his lips.
The way the other party appeared, as well as this invitation letter, Qin Ran could see the shadow of trouble.
However, he had to solve this trouble.
Because, side missions appeared!
[Discover side quest: Invitation to an ancient association! 】
[Invitation from the ancient association: The dead shepherd sent you an invitation, there are many strange things in it, you need to be careful in dealing with it! However, the premise is that you have to find where they are! Be careful, this will affect Nikelle's 'prophecy' and your reputation in the dungeon world! 】
(Note: If the invitation of the dead shepherd can be solved perfectly, the customs clearance evaluation will be greatly increased)
"Perfect solution?"
Kieran glanced at the label that appeared again, his eyes flicked back and forth on it.
Obviously, the 'Shepherd of the Dead' was far more troublesome than he imagined.
And the fact?
is also like this.
...
"What?"
"The Shepherd of the Dead?!"
After returning to No. 1 Black Street, Qin Ran sat at the dining table and enjoyed a long-overdue dinner: chicken risotto.
And if the slightly charred onions in the chicken risotto and the tender chicken are chewed together in the mouth, the crispness between the teeth and the juicy feeling in the mouth are really appetizing.
Especially the white pepper on top really made Qin Ran eat faster.
Of course, during the meal, Qin Ran did not forget to tell Simmons what happened one by one.
He didn't hide his intention to ask for advice.
However, Simmons had never heard of the Blood Queen's Crown and the Fantos manuscript, and said he needed to consult the information.
However, when Qin Ran mentioned the organization 'Dead Shepherd', Simmons was taken aback, and the spoon in his hand fell directly on the dining table.
The crisp sound of metal spoons was really ear-piercing in the empty restaurant with only two people.
After swallowing another piece of chicken, Qin Ran looked at Simmons whose expression was changing.
"Are they strong?"
Qin Ran asked,
"Very strong!"
"The former 'Dead Shepherd' was as famous as Dark Star, Night Demon, Unicorn, White Deer, and Extreme Day!"
"Is it strange, why is it so famous, but I haven't heard its name?"
Simmons asked, Kieran nodded.
"That's because Lei wiped out this association thirty years ago!"
"I didn't expect it to come back from the ashes!"
Simmons said slowly.
Qin Ran rubbed his swollen temples, and asked with a groan almost sick: "Was the Mushiren as famous as the five major associations?"
"Um."
"Then, Lei destroyed this association thirty years ago?"
"Um."
"So, they came to seek revenge?"
"Um."
Every question was answered in the affirmative.
"The shepherds of the dead are terrifying. They are proficient in communicating with the dead, and use the power of the dead. There are even rumors that they have secret techniques to bring the dead back to life. In addition, the whereabouts of the members of the association are secretive, extreme, and there is no fixed meeting place; therefore, When the mysterious side world at that time mentioned these 'dead people', it all changed color!"
While speaking, Simmons took a deep breath, as if recalling the horror of the dead shepherd at that time.
"Then why was the shepherd killed by Lei?"
"Ray is not a belligerent person."
Qin Ran asked curiously.
"Because, they are eyeing on Fei Lide - thinking that Fei Lide is a good research material..."
Simmons spread his hands as he spoke.
Qin Ran ate the risotto again in silence.
The dead shepherd has his eyes on the ghost steward, so the result is self-evident.
It is true that Nichelle is not a belligerent person, but she is definitely not a person who does not fight back when she is bullied.
Especially when someone stretched out his hand to the person beside him, Qin Ran could fully imagine how angry the old woman who was still in her prime was.
Likewise, mourn for the shepherds of the dead.
Yes, they are extreme, surreptitious and have no fixed meeting place.
But does all this work for Nikkiri?
Under the watchful eye of Nikolai's eyes, most of the things in the dungeon world are invisible, and after following the clues, Kieran has already imagined how an organization comparable to the five major associations will be destroyed.
At the same time, Kieran's strength against Nikailei has once again been raised.
"One person against an organization comparable to the five major associations..."
"No wonder, whether it's Moreduk from the Night Demon Society or Sticker from the Dark Star Society, after seeing Lei, they all have a faint sense of fear!"
"It really happened for a reason!"
"Then, the current shepherd of the dead..."
After eating all the food, Qin Ran thought quietly.
Suddenly, he thought of something.
The expression that should have been dignified immediately became relaxed.
Even, a smile appeared.
