"..."

With such a thick barrel pressing against your head, how could you not see it?

Wayne smiled bitterly and said: "Boss Gilman, I just want to buy some materials to make a mechanical puppet..."

"I told you, you are not welcome here." Gilman interrupted, "Please go back."

Marco looked at her and said slowly: "Gilman, I think you have forgotten who saved you and who helped you settle in Custer..."

Snapped.

A gunshot rang out, and a fire snake emerged from the musket under the skull chandelier, hitting the ground in front of the two people.

Gilman crossed his arms and said, "Things between wizards have nothing to do with anything else."

"wizard?"

Marco sneered: "I'm just a high-level apprentice who failed to advance. You don't really think you can keep me with these things, do you?"

High wizard apprentice?

Wei En glanced at the mechanical weapons around him. The firepower in this store could almost catch up with a reinforced platoon.

Gilman was unmoved, and said coldly: "You can try it!"

Marco's eyes darkened, "It's really..."

Wayne pulled him, shook his head and said, "Forget it, Brother Marco, since Boss Gilman doesn't agree, then go look elsewhere."

"confirmed?"

"Ah."

When Marco saw him nodding, he turned around and walked out without saying a word, the red ponytail on the back of his head swinging rhythmically.

Wayne glanced at Gilman again, and walked out of the shop together.

But what he didn't know was——

Not long after they walked out, all the mechanical weapons in the shop slipped down one after another.

It was as if it had been scratched by a sharp blade, and it was broken in half. The gears, parts and various transistors inside were scattered all over the place.

Looking at all this, Gilman bit his pretty lips, "The temper is still so hot... It's a loss."

On the other side,
Marco walked a long way in silence before saying, "Sorry, I didn't buy what you wanted."

"It's my fault," Wei En said with a smile, "If I didn't admit that I was a wizard apprentice of the Ghost School, I should have been able to purchase it smoothly."

This time it was indeed a real loss, but how did he think that wizards from other schools would have such deep resentment towards the Ghost School?

Forget it, next time he meets a wizard from another school, he will know how to communicate.

If you want to say it, just say that you are a wizard of the esoteric school. You won't be disliked anymore, right?

"By the way, Brother Marco, according to the conversation you just had with Gilman, did our logistics department help her when she first came to Custer?"

Marco nodded, "It happened two years ago, when she was caught..."

It turns out that Gilman was kidnapped and sold to Custer.

Work as slaves in the Basil neighborhood, doing various hard work, such as making conveyor belts, or using mechanical vehicles to help loading and unloading goods for passing merchant ships.

Later, the person who bought her was polluted by the red moon, turned into a mutant, and almost ate her.

It was Yegor and Marko who saved her.

Since then, Gilman has settled here and opened a shop specializing in the sale of some mechanical equipment.

"Is that so..."

"Let's not talk about this, I still know a place that has what you need."

Marco looked around and grinned: "It's not far from here."

"Really?"

"Just follow me."

"okay."

Wei En was ready to give up temporarily, but he didn't expect to have other places to go.

Originally, he wanted to buy some semi-finished machinery and tools through Gilman, which would greatly speed up his production of mechanical puppets.

pity……

……

……

"On August 1578, 8 in the New Calendar, the Custer City State Council, the Inquisition, the Secret Investigation Department, and the City Guards jointly investigated, and signed by Lord Consul Samir, the following announcement is made:
At 11 a.m. today, the attack occurred in the area of ​​No. 1-30, Dumitru Street, and it was confirmed that it was committed by the Eternal Life Club.The incident resulted in the death of 25 city-state citizens and wounded 78..."

The "Successful Birds" of the Secret Investigation Department, who are responsible for speaking out to the outside world, read the investigation report with a sad and helpless expression.

In the face of reporters from large and small newspapers, they had to be strict in their wording to avoid being caught by loopholes.

"...Finally, the parliament has issued an order to track down Claire of the Thousand Faces of the Eternal Life Society, and must give the city-state an explanation, so far."

As soon as they finished speaking, the surrounding reporters rushed forward and surrounded them.

"Excuse me, does the Church of Dawn accidentally injure citizens?"

"We need more detailed truth..."

"..."

If Wei En saw such a scene, he would probably be instantly transported back to those press conferences in his previous life. It was so similar.

And where the reporters couldn't see, two figures, one red and one white, stood on a high place, watching them silently.

"Sorry Alais, I've caused you trouble again this time."

"Andrews, I also want to thank you for your rescue." Ales shook his head, "Who is the guardian knight who made the shot?"

"Clander's side," Andrews said with a gentle smile, "he still needs to adapt to the rules of Custer's side."

Ales said noncommittally: "Dawn's brilliance always leans towards Clander."

"No, no, it's different this time..."

"Because of that saint candidate?"

"You knew already?"

Ales stared at the suicidal birds downstairs who were being overwhelmed by the reporters, "Early this morning, the parliament passed on the meeting contents."

"Sorry, you know, I'm also doing it for Custer's sake..."

"Such words are always convincing from the mouth of your bishop."

Andrews heard the sarcasm in his words, but his face did not show any emotion. He still said with a smile: "It would be better to say that this is the choice of most people."

Alais tilted his head and looked at him, "I don't think you came to me this time just to deal with me, right?"

"I need your help."

"Oh?"

"The alternate saint is my student. It takes too much time for her to grow up, so..."

"So," Ales took his words, and said flatly, "You want me to speed up her growth?"

"Not just you, but also some people in the Secret Brewing Department."

"condition?"

"I knew you would agree," Andrews thanked sincerely, "Dawn will definitely bless you, Ales."

"You're probably old and confused, otherwise, how could you not know that what I hate the most are believers in your church... especially Liming!"

"But at least you remember, we grew up together in Bravo, we came to Chatland together, and the hardships we went through together, don't you?"

Alais didn't say anything else. He lowered his head slightly and looked downstairs calmly. The lenses reflected a ray of light, making it difficult to see his eyes clearly.

"maybe……"

……

……

"This is where you said it was?"

Wayne looked at the scene in front of him dumbfounded, it was hard to believe that Marco would bring him here.

Marco raised his head and smiled proudly, "Welcome to the city that never sleeps, Wei En."

PPS: I was joking, there is another chapter that will be released after 1 o'clock... I am a little slow, sorry.
