Chapter 386: Witch of Wisdom
"Common prosperity? It sounds a bit difficult.
Riya himself was not even that rich. Most of those gold coins were little Shivall's "private money". As a dragon, it was normal for him to have stored funds.
Although Xiao Shival believed that all the money was reserved for Riya, Riya would not touch those things until the critical moment.
He hoped that Svaal could make a bed out of gold when he got tired while staying in his body. After all, the dragon guarding gold sounded very legendary and mythical.
"What would it be like if one day everything in the world could be turned into gold?"
Ria couldn't help but think about and imagine the scene. The black merchant's desire for gold did not happen overnight, but he could suppress his greed for the time being and avoid being suddenly obsessed with money and suddenly destroying the steam train and the car he was in. Everyone on there was sold.
His failure to do this is enough to prove that he still has humanity, and he doesn't know why James is so worried every day.
"Snake extraordinary creatures escaped from the palace... Speaking of which, what does those extraordinary creatures have to do with the world's giant snake.
Those snakes couldn't be the heirs of King Wilton. His heirs escaped and someone posted a reward for them. This is really interesting. The situation of the royal family seems to be worse than everyone imagined.
This is no longer like a puppet... more like a domestic animal. "
"There was an extraordinary creature that escaped from the palace and was recaptured, and then more extraordinary creatures escaped. Is this really possible in theory?
Perhaps the first escapee deliberately returned to the palace and let his brothers and sisters go. Even if the heirs did not have enough blood, it was still the blood of the World Snake, which could cause conflicts outside. "
"And the process of this conflict may cause greater chaos, such as the sudden casualties of ordinary people or the casualties of the royal family, which will undoubtedly increase the panic of the people.
If you suddenly tell them in the end that the person who hurt them is a monster, the king you have always relied on and admired.
Then the result..."
When Ria thought about that possibility, she didn't feel "in danger" at the first moment. Instead, she thought it would be fun.
"It's not good, I seem to be influenced by those crazy people."
The young man put the handle of his cane to his head and knocked it lightly a few times.
"How can I think like this, but then again, if you appreciate the script from the perspective of a third person, the person who wrote the script will only hope that things can develop as out of control as possible."
The monarch carrying the cursed blood will eventually purify his bloodline step by step on the throne, until the human king completely becomes a monster, a big snake entrenched on the throne and the world.
The snake may start a war himself, and Endeles cannot afford his awakening, or other brave men may kill him at some point before his awakening, and war will come to Endeles as usual.
No matter what, the prophecy will come, the second curse seal is destined to be revealed, and the war knights will eventually cause war.
Peace is short-lived. The world has never been truly peaceful for a moment. Wars, large and small, are taking place in places that are known or unknown to everyone——
"Perhaps I should pay a visit to His Majesty and hear what the nobles think of their mentor."
Riya leaned her cane on the chair nearby: "But in what capacity is it better to contact His Majesty? With my current identity, I am just a disordered person. I still need to be careful not to expose my past identity.
No one knows how far the cursed blood of Wilton IV has awakened. It may be risky for Riya to approach rashly. Although he doesn't care about this, he still wants to dig out the dark secrets of those nobles bit by bit. "
"So at this time, we have to consider connections. Do we have any useful connections?"
Riya looked at little Shival, and little Shivar also looked at Riya with wide eyes. After a moment, it pointed at herself with its claws.
"Gu?"
"You mean yourself?"
"Gu."
Little Shival nodded.
Riya thought: "It would be good to let you transform into a suitable candidate. We may have to contact those poor little snakes first. If nothing else, the king's child was lost and I found it for him. He paid me a lot." Isn't this how it should be?
By the way, there are still many demons in the middle who want to attack these children. I suffered a lot of injuries trying to save them, so I have to pay extra. "
"Goo!"
Little Shival became excited and filled with indignation, as if he suddenly saw who had injured Riya, showing an angry and sad expression.
Ria felt that its expressions were getting richer and richer. Although to outsiders, it was just two golden eyes that were flashing. Other than that, they could not see any expression at all, only a bottomless black. .
If the mythical creature doesn't open its eyes, it's like a black hole, absorbing all the surrounding light.
In this regard, it seems to know that it is special, and often goes to dark places to wait for its host to find it, and Riya can successfully find it every time.
It's amazing.
Little Sval kept turning his head from side to side.
The train travels this way fairly smoothly.
No one was attacked and destroyed midway, nor did a carload of people suddenly turn into supernatural beings to kill each other.
These few hours were rare and peaceful hours for Riya. He quite liked the atmosphere of the train. Not many people talked. Everyone was doing their own thing quietly, such as wiping guns and wiping knife blades. Clean enough to reflect my own reflection.
I guess all the bounty hunters are ready to make a fortune. As long as the train arrives, they can earn enough bounties to spend their whole lives.
The bounty order clearly states that the snake-like supernatural creatures have no supernatural abilities. Their only feature is their huge bite force and sharp claws. Sometimes the Order Association does not need to intervene to deal with them.
A hunting rifle is enough.
And what is the difference between supernatural creatures without supernatural abilities and ordinary beasts?
In other words, the palace issued a bounty of 5,000 gold coins for capturing a beast, first come first served. Who among the poor people would not be tempted and take risks?
Even if their power is beyond the imagination of ordinary people, bounty hunters who have first-hand information are also very willing to go and fight them.
Liya once again stopped the steward who was pushing a dining cart passing by. She no longer sold expired beef jerky, but now started selling expired mutton jerky.
Maybe there are no expired products on the train. Now Riya is very suspicious about the age of the cup of coffee he drank, but it is harmless to drink it. Even if someone poisons him, he will not die. Strong vitality is not without benefits.
"Miss, give me a pack of mutton jerky."
The young man bought a product according to the principle of transaction, and then looked at it again and again. He found that the production date was older than his age. When this sheep died, the original body might not have been born yet.
"So it turns out that mutton jerky with this kind of packaging was sold so long ago? Endles is really a magical country."
He put the product back, and the attendant lowered her voice: "If you want to ask anything else, anything is fine. As long as I know, including a male customer in the third row of the door wearing pink teddy bear pattern boxer briefs, I can tell you."
"..."
Riya didn't want to know how she knew about this, but just asked the questions she wanted to know.
"Who captured the first snake and received the bounty?"
"This kind of thing is usually kept secret, but since you asked, I will definitely help you get the answer right away."
She said, leaving the metal cart in place, then tidied her professional attire, pulled up her skirt and walked towards a passenger not far away.
She stepped on high heels and walked gracefully. After arriving beside the passenger, she bent her knees without saying a word and pressed one leg against the seat, hooking the other's chin with her fingers.
"Sir, congratulations on being selected for the special prize of this train. Do you want to have a wild release?"
The passenger was a bounty hunter. The moment the attendant Alice approached, his breathing became heavy. Looking at the beauty beside him, feeling the warm and fragrant smell surrounding him, the man's Adam's apple couldn't help rolling.
"It seems that I am really lucky today, baby——"
He smiled and put out the cigarette at the corner of his mouth, and directly hugged the beautiful woman's waist and rubbed it twice, and then took her to the train bathroom.
During this process, the man's hand moved lower and lower, until he entered the bathroom, his hand had already reached deep into the bottom of the skirt.
Riya took a sip of coffee, and not long after, everyone heard a scream suddenly coming from the direction of the bathroom.
"Ahhhhhhh!!!!!!"
The scream was particularly shrill, with panic in it, and a bit of inexplicable excitement in the panic that ordinary people could not understand.
"How come you have it too! ! ?
"No, don't come over, don't come over! Ahhhhhhhhh, don't! I was wrong... wrong... I was wrong..."
"Umm--"
The last meaningless scream was particularly harsh.
The whole car fell into a strange silence.
Alice pushed open the door, tidied her hair, and then walked to Riya and stuffed him the intelligence slip he needed.
Riya opened the slip.
"You're welcome, my Lord of Trade, these are what I should do. "
[Actually, I'm not a conductor. The conductor was late a long time ago and failed to catch the train. Oh, what a poor and derelict girl. I have to take over today.
The question you asked has been answered. Those bounty hunters are indeed the best carriers of intelligence. Just inject a little magic potion into their bodies and they will tell you everything.
The hunter who took the first bounty snake to collect the bounty was a woman. She was characterized by wearing a large hunter's suit that did not fit her body shape and carrying a small package. According to her, the package contained the snake man's head.
No one knows what happened after that.]
Alice Licking her lips, it was obvious that she was very satisfied with the body of the bounty hunter just now. This person was not an ordinary person, she was a contamination patient [witch] who had mixed in.
There are always people who can evade tickets in their own way, and the ways of evading tickets for extraordinary people will only be more abundant.
The dried meat on the carts are all the raw materials for her magic potion. It is not ruled out that there is real human flesh in them.
"Anyway, this is probably the situation. My name is Alice, known as the [Witch of Wisdom]. I will be wandering around random places in Cranbea next. If you meet me, you can still find me to provide you with any information."
"I am very honored to provide you with the content information you need."
New content continued to appear on the note, and the moment Ria finished reading it, the note disappeared automatically. In the eyes of ordinary people, everything this lady did was normal and reasonable, and there was nothing suspicious. Perhaps they had been poisoned by the witch's potion from the moment they entered the carriage.
Ria thought about the meaning of Alice's name, [Witch of Wisdom], and seemed to have heard of a similar name somewhere.
Ilinte was called [Dream Witch], Leilana was [White Rose], Favroline was [Black Rose], and this Alice called herself [Witch of Wisdom].
Witches are a very inclusive and united group. There are not many witches with special titles in the total group, but these witches probably have their own special abilities, or they are synonymous with mystery.
For others, witches are undoubtedly full of mystery, attraction and temptation, but more people will only stay away from them.
Many people think that witches are too scary.
Originally, Riya didn't quite understand the meaning of this sentence, but after experiencing this today, he probably understood it.
"It's really scary."
The young man smiled at Alice and pushed the metal dining car to continue to sell his expired goods elsewhere.
No one knew how she got on the train, and no one knew why she was here, but now, she was just an ordinary steam train attendant, responsible for selling some simple products to make profits for herself, that's all.
There was only one disordered person in this carriage, Riya, and he was a little disappointed because he couldn't see the expressions of other disordered people.
Soon, Riya looked out the window again, and the scenery outside quickly retreated, from trees to roads, from roads to many houses, and from houses to wilderness.
"Woo--"
The train whistled, and the steam above spread and covered the sky. After an unknown period of time, the train finally stopped at a certain station.
At that moment, everyone got up and rushed out of the carriage with their packed things and guns. In fact, it is not difficult to understand why the train does not prohibit the carrying of guns in the car.
If it is really forbidden to carry guns, these hunters would not come here at all. They are no different from losing half their lives if they cannot see their beloved guns at any time.
Moreover, most of the people in the car are bounty hunters. Some of their bullets are more valuable than human lives. Hunters' bullets are made of special materials, and the casting of a bullet often goes through countless processes.
It is certain that they all hunt extraordinary creatures and make weapons based on this standard. How could they waste weapons on ordinary people?
