Chapter 121 Abandoned

The other party seemed very happy that Ryan killed the monster, and a smile appeared faintly on her originally sad and dull face.

This slowed down Ryan's action of taking out the "holy water" from his waist bag.

But Ryan thought about it, and still took out the holy water and held it in his hand.

As if she had sensed the energy contained in the holy water, the girl looked at the holy water in Ryan's hand, her face was horrified, her hands waved in front of her chest, and an ethereal and panicked voice sounded:

"Warrior, don't hurt me, I'm not a bad person."

Hmm?

Can speak?

But why does this voice sound so familiar.

It seems to be the female voice that just reminded me to run fast? Ryan thought to himself.

At this time, the fog seemed to begin to fade a little, and the girl's figure became a little clearer.

But Ryan looked closely and found that the other party's body had a sense of unreality. After the fog gradually dissipated, there was a sense of transparency.

Ryan thought for a moment and said slowly, "Do you understand what I'm saying?"

The girl nodded.

Ryan felt relieved and continued to ask, "Were you reminding me to run away just now?"

"Yes, Warrior. But I didn't expect you to be so powerful that you killed this fog monster directly." The girl seemed to be more and more clear-headed, her facial expression was no longer dull, and her speech became more fluent.

"The monster just now was called the fog monster?" Ryan asked.

"Well, I heard that the bounty hunter called the monster the fog monster before he died. It can control the thick fog and likes to suddenly attack humans in the thick fog. It is difficult for ordinary people to resist its attack."

"What about you? What's going on? You reminded me to run quickly, but every time this fog monster attacks me, you attract my attention. It seems that you are helping it attack me!" Ryan asked back.

"I'm sorry! Warrior, I was controlled by the fog monster before and had to do these things."

"I'm really sorry!" The girl's expression became sad again, and she slowly sobbed.

Ryan waved his hand and did not dwell on this question anymore, but continued to ask:

"How did you become like this?"

"By the way, what's your name?"

"My name is Agatha! I don't know what happened. When I woke up again, I became like this." The girl in the spirit state answered.

The other party's name immediately reminded Ryan that this mill was called Agatha Mill. Ryan immediately asked curiously: "Could it be that this mill and you?"

"Yes, warrior, this mill was originally run by my father and me."

As Agatha told the story, Ryan understood the whole story.

It turned out that one day, Agatha was defiled by Colm Tucker, the steward of Baron Watson, and Agatha's father found out and had a dispute with Colm. Colm killed Agatha and her father in anger and buried them under two windmills respectively.

Originally, this tragedy should have ended here.

But somehow, some strange changes happened to the dead Agatha.

When Agatha woke up again, she found herself turned into a ghost.

When Agatha was still in a daze, a fog demon attacked, and the other party had the ability to control thick fog and spirits.

So, after death, Agatha had to succumb to the other party's clutches and was forced to attract the attention of the victims so that the fog demon could launch a fatal attack from behind.

Ryan nodded. It seems that the rumored smell of decay and ghosts was not wrong.

At this time, Agatha hesitated for a while and said, "Warrior, can I make a request? If possible, can you help me get revenge?"

"I don't have any reward to give you. Maybe the brass ring on my corpse is the only thing I can take out, but it doesn't seem to be enough to pay you."

Ryan looked thoughtful and did not immediately agree or refuse.

Although what Agatha said was true, her experience was indeed very tragic. Ryan was willing to help, but he didn't want to fail to do things well and get into trouble instead.

Since the murderer is a baron's butler, he is obviously valued and trusted by the baron. If you want him to confess and cooperate with the baron, you can't do it without thinking.

After a few seconds, Ryan said: "Agatha, tell me the whole thing in detail, maybe we can find evidence in our favor."

"Even for me, it would be very difficult to get a baron's butler to directly admit his crime."

Agatha nodded and began to tell the story immediately.

After listening to Agatha's story again, Ryan left the windmill with the body of the fog monster.

As soon as he walked out of the mill, Ryan looked at the system prompt, his eyes flickered.

He didn't expect that the system would give such a generous experience value reward for killing the fog monster just now.

[Your skill Giant Bear Swordsmanship has been improved, experience value +274]

[You have experienced a battle, Knight (Extraordinary) experience value +54]

Knight lv1 (86/100) is about to be upgraded at this time.

It seems that this kind of monster has particularly generous experience value rewards. At least, in Ryan's opinion, the fog monster's combat effectiveness is not actually very strong, and it feels not as good as Caravi, but the opponent's attack is weird and unexpected.

If you can grasp the entity revealed at the moment of the opponent's attack and inflict maximum damage, you can directly seriously injure it or even kill it with one blow.

Regarding Agatha's request, Renn already had a less mature plan in his mind.

There's no guarantee it will work, but Wren still plans to try.

And Gregory, who had returned from Watson Manor, had been waiting outside. When he saw Ren coming out, he said in surprise:

"Your Excellency Renn, seeing you return safely"

Suddenly, Gregory's voice stopped abruptly, because when he saw the corpse of the monster that Ren dragged out, his eyes widened in fear.

"There really is a monster! I thought it was a ghost. What an unreliable bounty hunter!" he murmured.

"Deacon Gregory, I have temporarily solved the problem of the mill. If I want a permanent solution once and for all, I need to meet with His Excellency Baron Watson."

"Your Excellency Renn, do you want to see the Baron?"

"That's great. His Excellency the Baron just told me that he wants to meet you. At this moment, your Excellency should be at Watson Manor not far away."

Not long after, Gregory took Ren to Watson Manor not far away.

It turned out that Baron Watson happened to come from the county town to inspect the manor in the afternoon. He heard that someone was coming to solve the mill problem, so he planned to meet him.

"Lord Watson, it's an honor to meet you." Ren said slightly bowing.

Although he has now entered the realm of transcendence, he is not technically a nobleman yet, so basic etiquette must still be followed.

Baron Watson is a tall, middle-aged man, wearing a noble hunting attire, and the man wearing a black robe next to him should be the murderer Agatha mentioned - butler Colm.

Baron Watson looked at Renn with a smile and said, "Are you the newly extraordinary Renn? I didn't expect that you would be the one to solve this matter."

Renn was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that his transformation into the extraordinary would spread so quickly.

"Yes, Lord Baron. This time Lord Hamilton also told me about the mysterious incident that happened at Agatha's Mill. So far, I have solved it for the time being."

"Temporarily?" Baron Watson frowned.

"Well, although I solved the murderer of the farmers and guards, the fog demon. However, the fundamental problem of Agatha's Mill has not been solved. There is another secret to this matter."

When Ren mentioned the word "secret", he glanced at the butler Colm on the side, and saw a trace of panic in his eyes.

"Huh? Renn, please elaborate." Apparently, Baron Watson looked confused after hearing the secret.

Then, Ren began to tell the story slowly.

"Agatha's tragic experience turned her into a resentful spirit, and continued to attract various monsters to Agatha's Mill. Therefore, only by letting the other party rest in peace can it be possible to restore Agatha's Mill to normal operation."

Hearing this, the butler Colm began to have big beads of sweat on his head.

"Ren, what happened to Agatha is really depressing. How can we let Agatha rest in peace? Are we going to capture the murderer? Are there any clues?"

"Lord Baron, there is no need to go to such trouble."

"Could it be that Ren, you know who the murderer is?" Baron Watson reacted and looked at Ren.

Ren nodded, looking directly at the trembling butler Colm, and said: "The murderer is right in front of you, Lord Baron."

Following Ren's eyes, Baron Watson looked doubtfully at the butler Colm standing aside, which immediately surprised him and said:

"What? Colm?"

"Sir Leren, this is that ghost's slander, slander!" Butler Colm was trembling all over and his face was red. At this moment, although he was afraid of the transcendent Leanne, he still forcefully defended.

After thinking about it, the baron looked solemn and said.

"Ren, this matter still needs evidence. The ghost's words may not be credible."

Such a bad thing was actually done by someone around him, which made Baron Watson instinctively reluctant to believe it. Although, judging from the performance of butler Colm at this time, Baron Watson also knew about this matter. There is a high probability that it has something to do with Colm.

evidence?

Ren smiled.

This incident happened a few months ago. Without modern criminal investigation methods, only some kind of mysterious witchcraft could make the murderer honestly admit his crime.

Obviously, Renne does not have this ability now.

"Ren, I plan to completely close Agatha's Mill. As for Colm, I will also fire him." Baron Watson glanced at the butler Colm, then turned to look at Ren.

It seems that Baron Watson has already thought of a solution.

Merely dismissal, this punishment was minimal compared to Agatha and her father.

Fortunately, Renne was prepared.

"Lord Baron, maybe you think that if you do this, Agatha's ghost won't come back, right? But I heard that ghosts will mutate further and may even become wraiths!"

"In addition, the area of ​​Agatha's Mill may attract more monsters, and the distance between your manor and the mill is not far."

"Do you really not mind that things will get to that point? I'm afraid that even if you spend a lot of money to ask the church's senior officials to take action, it may not be able to solve this matter."

These words were temporarily made up by Renne based on some rumors he heard from Hamilton in the past few days, and they were mainly intended to be a 'threat'.

Baron Watson's face became increasingly ugly as Ren spoke.

He also heard what Ren said.

In addition, it is not so easy to ask senior officials to take action. Not only does it cost a lot of money, but it also requires a big favor.

The baron frowned and his eyes flickered, obviously weighing the pros and cons.

Although Colm, as a butler, has served the Watson family for many years and is relatively easy to use, he really didn't know that the other party would do such a thing. The most important thing is that if this matter continues to develop, it is possible that The Watson family will suffer heavy losses.

Originally, he was thinking of minimizing the big issue, but now that he heard what Ren said, he hesitated.

But the housekeeper Colm looked pale at this time, his legs were trembling, and he was almost unsteady.

"Colm, go with Ren to Agatha's Mill and settle the matter." Baron Watson thought for a moment and then made a decision quickly.

Obviously, after listening to Lane's 'analysis', Baron Watson planned to give up on the butler Colm.

"Lord Baron, I am unjustly accused!" Butler Colm's originally burly body seemed to have been twitched by a snake on his spine, slumping to the ground.

"Lord Baron, you made a wise decision." Renn smiled.

I saw Renn picking up the back of Colm's neck, as if carrying a chicken, and walking towards Agatha's Mill.
