Witch, Fireball and Steam Evil God

Chapter 123 reflects Ethan's homesickness
During the past few days in Gear City, the energy crystal would turn into a large online chat room every night. Ivy had a lot of little ideas. She always tried to arouse Ethan's homesickness by using the happy small town life in Creekwood. She also hinted that if he didn't come back, Bi'an would ride Miss Chloe to conquer the sea of ​​stars.

In order to please Miss Chloe, the former glorious Knight Commander of the Empire transformed himself into a real chicken farmer, taking care of Miss Chloe meticulously every day.

As for the business in the Hearth Bay shop, there has been no restock of Frost Arrow Scrolls for some time, and those people who rely on Frost Arrows for hunting on a daily basis seem to be addicted to it, and they ask Heisenberg every night when the stock will be restocked.

Rowena has made some progress in her research on the remains of the Giant God Soldier, and suggested that they might be able to try to dilute the intensity of the curse and control it within the range that the human body can withstand. Although this will reduce the defense capability to a certain extent, it will be able to achieve mass production of cursed armor in one go.

Rowena even thought of a name. She set up her own counter in the Lao Sen Magic Technology Store, named Nana Magic Research and Appraisal Shop. Her main business is to help magicians appraise treasures. In her words, this is a job that makes money without any cost, and it all depends on her eloquence.

It seems like it's time to go back.

Ethan listened to Lindong, Ivy and others chatting animatedly while packing his bags.

Maid costume has become Winter's main outfit recently. At this moment, she took off her crystal high heels, lay on the bed, and gently shook her legs wrapped in white lace stockings.

Ethan still hadn't figured out what book she had read in the library of St. Hillman's Cathedral.

However, before going back, he still had one thing to do.

He said goodbye to the gravedigger chief of the police station, who had left a very deep impression on him - mainly because his face was square like Steve's, definitely the squarest face Ethan had ever seen.

Besides.

Mr. Lockthorne deeply regrets what happened to him, and this time, he seems to be able to create a happy ending.

"teacher."

"Ok?"

Lin Dong's legs stopped shaking and he turned his head to look at him.

"I want to ask you something."

..............................

Before dark, Ethan checked out of the hotel and paid his last visit to the police station. When the square-faced chief learned that Ethan was returning to Riverwood Town, he felt as if the sky was falling.

"Why don't you stay a few more days? Such a big thing just happened in Gear City, and the research on the Red Death has just begun. Now is the time when we need you... How about transferring you to the research department? Although it is not in compliance with the regulations, I can make the decision on this matter and promote you to a C-level investigator!"

"That's why I have to return to Riverwood Town as soon as possible."

Ethan said righteously, "Director, the empire's defense line is made up of these small towns. If the Red Death spreads to Ximu Town and the entire town falls, this line of defense will inevitably be broken by the evil god's followers."

Hearing this, the gravedigger could only nod helplessly.

He has courage, ability, and more importantly, is willing to go deep into the front line. This reminds the gravedigger of the time when the previous director was still alive. At that time, the shelter was not like it is now, where people were just waiting to die.

He patted Ethan on the shoulder and said, "Boy, do your best. Also, don't die easily at the hands of those people!"

At this point, he was suddenly a little surprised and asked, "Huh? Why is your cat gone?"

"She's waiting for me at the hotel."

Meanwhile, in the quarantine area of ​​the Containment Bureau, the thug was still tied to the chair in a straitjacket, his broken nose had been fixed, and the Red Ice investigators everywhere on the floor were avoiding the quarantine area.

Many people have witnessed the terrifying appearance of Asoke after his mutation, and they are afraid that they will also be infected and turned into monsters.

The thug leaned quietly on the stool with a relaxed brow. He heard the investigators' discussion. Esoke was dead, shot to pieces by a musket, and most of his body was burned by the priest. His death was extremely miserable, which calmed the uncontrollable anger in his heart.

The investigator said he was suffering from the Red Death, but he didn't care. No matter what those people called him, a thug, an infected person or a death row prisoner, he had no objection. Now he just needed to wait quietly in this room for death - he had fulfilled his responsibilities as a father.

In this small room, the concept of time became extremely vague, and he could no longer tell how long he had been sent in.

He was just about to take a short nap, waiting for the investigators, who were wrapped tightly in isolation suits, to come and extract research samples from him. As a hunter living in the slums, he had never been taken so seriously.

But the air suddenly turned cold.

It is a kind of chill that cannot be described in words and touches the soul.

The hunter sensed something, he slowly opened his eyes and looked at the woman wearing a vortex mask who had appeared in the room in an unknown way.

The woman stood in front of him, looking down at him.

"Let's do it."

The hunter said frankly that he knew very well that his power was not enough to touch a big man like Esok, but Kane's speech touched his heart. The Red Death and the evil god mentioned by the investigators helped him to complete his revenge, and next, he should dedicate his soul to the evil god.

It was a fair deal, and he had no complaints about it, but before that, "My wife and daughter, are they OK?"

The messenger of the evil god did not seem to intend to answer his question. The coldness instantly engulfed the hunter. His eyes went dark and his consciousness was drawn into an endless abyss.

He didn't know how long he had stayed in the abyss, but according to the propaganda of the Holy See, all those who dedicated their souls to the evil god would suffer eternal torture.

As the cold left him, the hunter smelled the scent of earth.

He was lying on the cold ground, surrounded by lush vegetation. This place was far away from the Gear City, and the kingdom's army patrolling outside the city could not find him.

The hunter slowly stood up, his arms were covered with dirt, and beside him were straitjackets that had been cut open and scattered on the ground.

The messenger of the evil god did not tell him any news about his wife and daughter. He only told him that if he continued along this road, he would arrive at a place called Ximu Town.

He would find the answer there.

This was an ending the hunter could never have imagined in his dreams. He walked towards them with heavy steps.

The evil gods' conspiracy, they will first give people hope and then ruthlessly crush it, that is their pleasure - these are the descriptions of the evil gods by the Holy See, you can know this just by sitting in the preaching hall of St. Hillman's Cathedral for a while.

But, he wanted to go to Ximu Town to take a look.

If this was a beautiful dream carefully woven by the evil god, he would rather drown in it.
