Harrison? Brown calmed down and looked around. Today was the opening day of Sauger's wax museum, so there were a lot of pedestrians on the stone bridge, and there was also a heavy iron carriage slowly moving forward. Brown laughed at himself, "So it's because there are so many people today, plus the iron carriage, that the stone bridge, which has been under construction for nearly a hundred years, started to shake. Hey, I'm just too sensitive. I'm like a bird that's been shot by a bow many times. As long as I hear the sound of the bowstring, even if it's not shot at me, I'll still react violently. "
Now that he knew the reason, he completely calmed down. At this time, the adventurer on his right moved closer to him, pretending to be walking side by side with him, and whispered to him, "It's just an accident. You can keep going to Sauger's wax museum."
"Okay. Haha, the City Hall needs to send someone to reinforce this stone bridge. " Brown did not refuse, and walked towards the island on the other side of the stone bridge. There was an art district there, with an oil painting museum, a wax museum, an opera house, a concert hall, and several high-end restaurants.
The night watcher, who was disguised as an adventurer, looked to the right and said to Blond, "But we can't be too careless. I've asked the Church to send someone here to check if the stone bridge has indeed been in disrepair for a long time, or if someone has destroyed it with hidden magic."
Although he did not find any magic waves just now, the night watcher was still very cautious, fearing that it was some kind of hidden magic.
In fact, the Professor's Hand of Resonance only caused resonance, and the internal structure of the stone bridge was damaged because of its own violent vibration. After the inspection, there was no trace of magic at all. Unless the City Hall or the Church conducted a safety assessment of the stone bridge every one or two years, and then found out that the damage was so sudden and fast, no one would be able to find anything strange about it. However, in the world of magic and divinity, there was no such safety assessment. Basically, the reinforcement of the stone bridge was based on the external damage and the feedback of the public.
"I'm really impressed by your vigilance." Brown was very satisfied with the night watcher's vigilance and caution, because it meant that he would be safer.
After seven or eight minutes of walking across the stone bridge, Brown and his entourage arrived in front of Sauger's wax museum. The whole building was divided into two floors, built with smooth black rocks, in a retro style, and solemn.
"Nice to meet you, Viscount Wright. Nice to meet you, Baron Capp …" Brown hurried to greet Viscount Wright and the others at the entrance of the wax museum. Even if he had to move to the Holy City in the future, he had always dreamed of building a good relationship with the big nobles and magnates. They controlled the trade rights between the east and the west coasts and the north and south continents. He could live a luxurious and wonderful life with only a little money flowing through their fingers.
Viscount Wright was a middle-aged man with seaweed-like green hair. He nodded in a reserved manner, "Welcome, our hero Knight."
"You are the respected Great Knight." Brown said humbly. He was a Knight who used potions to stimulate his bloodline. In terms of willpower and spirit, he was quite different from a real Knight. However, Viscount Wright was a real level four Knight.
Viscount Wright didn't say anything, but he turned around and started to talk business with his partner, Granneuve. Brown, on the other hand, found a few nobles and merchants he was familiar with to communicate.
Soon, it was ten o 'clock. Suo Ge stood in front of the gate with the nobles and announced the opening of the wax museum to the other guests.
There was no ribbon-cutting ceremony in this world, only the accompaniment of a band.
However, at this time, the crowd suddenly became restless. It seemed that something strange was happening in the distance. The night watchers looked at each other and their faces became very serious. Then, they split up and rushed towards the source of the noise.
Lucien, who was wearing a black top hat and a monocle on his left eye, was standing in the crowd. He saw the night watchers who were pretending to be a couple leave, and the night watchers who were dressed like luxurious businessmen sneak away. Only the night watchers who were dressed like adventurers and the boatmen who were walking back and forth on the canal were left.
Now that Ferryman had promised to help him distract the night watchers, Lucien was not stupid enough to take the risk himself. When he was still weak, doing things alone was far less effective than doing things in an organization. Why would he bother to distract the night watchers at such a great risk?
It seems that they also know something about the night watchers … Lucien did not know how the night watchers in Sturk successfully distract the three night watchers without showing up, but the word "successfully" indicated that they had a deep understanding of the night watchers in Sturk. This was the habit of sorcerers!
Lucien asked to distract the night watchers after the stone arch bridge was shaken loose last night, because he knew that his test would only work for a short while. When the night watchers changed their clothes or changed their teams, he would have to test them again to find out which night watchers were the night watchers. Even if there were no magical waves, continuous probing would still arouse suspicion. Therefore, they had to seize the opportunity to act before Brown returned home.
At this time, Lucien's appearance was only slightly changed with the help of his hat, glasses and makeup. After all, the grand Knight could easily see through him if he used Camouflage at this time. All he needed to do was to make sure that Brown would not recognize him.
Standing on the stairs, Brown was a bit alarmed by the noise from afar. He asked the night watcher in a low voice, "Is everything okay?"
"Several night watchers are on their way, but you don't have to worry about your safety. There are three or four grand Knights and more than ten grand Knights here. The Congress of Magic won't dare to do anything to you." The night watcher answered calmly. There were many bloodline nobles inside and outside Sauger Wax Museum. Even though they were stained with the stink of money, they could not hide their real power. Therefore, the night watchers were relieved to let the night watchers leave.
Brown looked at Viscount Wright and the rest of the night watchers and felt relieved.
Suddenly, a blue light flashed on the bell tower far away, and a long blue arrow with a blue tip was shot towards Brown at a high speed.
The speed, the momentum, and the sense of danger contained in the arrow all indicated that the archer on the bell tower was at least a Knight.
The arrow passed through the canal and the crowd like a shadow and arrived in front of Brown in the blink of an eye. There was no chance for Brown to react at all.
Viscount Wright waved his left hand, and countless gusts of wind appeared and restrained the arrow, slowing it down a bit. However, the wind could not stop it from moving forward.
It was a grand Knight archer! Or a level-three enchanted longbow!
However, Viscount Wright's action bought Brown some time. White angel feathers appeared again and covered Brown. At the same time, the night watchers beside Brown grabbed the shield and put it in front of him.
The blue arrow hit the Demon Hunter's shield and pierced a hole through it without a sound, hitting the Angel's Feather.
The angel's feathers turned into water and fell off one after another. Soon, the arrow fell to the ground. Brown had resisted the "carefully planned" long-range attack!
There was no more noise on the bell tower. The night watchers on the canal hurried towards the bell tower under the guidance of the night watchers. Although the night watchers were not very powerful, they were good at hiding and tracking. As long as they could lock down the archer, they would be able to summon the other night watchers.
Viscount Wright snorted. Someone dared to assassinate him in front of him, so he ordered his Knight followers to cooperate with the night watchers to catch the assassin.
In the crowd, Lucien pushed up his monocle and said, "Another night watcher and a lot of Knights are missing."
"After this surprise attack, Brown's vigilance should be lowered a lot."
"When we were on the stone bridge, we were too far away to see clearly. But this time, we can clearly see that the divine amulet on Brown's chest is much dimmer. It should only be able to use 'angel's feather' or some other divine spell."
"It's really good to have an organized distribution of resources and manpower."
This was Lucien's requirement. No matter what method Sturk and the Congress of Magic used, they had to split into two groups, and the second group had to have enough long-range attacks to threaten Brown. Of course, after the attack, they had to leave immediately.
Brown said to the night watchers, "The demon hunter's shield needs to be repaired, and there's only one use of 'angel's feather' left. Should we go back now?"
"Don't be nervous, Mr. Brown. You've already avoided the most dangerous attack. With the night watchers hunting you down, no sorcerer or assassin dares to come again, unless it's a suicide attack. " The night watcher pointed at Viscount Wright and the other night watchers, "Besides, it's too dangerous for me to protect you alone. Maybe those evil and smart sorcerers are waiting for you to come home, so they can ambush you on the way or even at the gate. There are so many Knight level experts here. Even if there's an assassin, you'll have help. "
Brown took a glance at Viscount Wright. If it weren't for him, he would have been killed. After weighing the safety of the grand Knight and himself and the night watchers, Brown nodded in relief, "Then let's take a good look at the wax museum."
The long-range attack just now scared many weak nobles out of their wits, but they soon calmed down because of the presence of the powerful sorcerers. Then, under Suo Ge's expectant gaze, most of them chose to stay and follow him into the wax museum.
After the opening ceremony, many wax enthusiasts also rushed to the gate, wanting to go in, but the fee of 20 Nars stopped ninety percent of them.
Lucien pushed his monocle slightly and walked to the gate with a black suitcase in his hand.
Seeing that Lucien was dressed like a member of the upper class, the two waiters said respectfully, "Sir, since there are many nobles inside, we can't let too many people in to disturb them. Only those who pay 20 Nars are qualified to visit."
"Also, we need to check your suitcase," the other waiter said cautiously.
Lucien replied with the accent of the Duchy of Djibouti, "I've just arrived in Sturk. I heard that Mr. Suo Ge's wax museum was opening, so I hurried here. This is my luggage."
While talking, Lucien opened the black suitcase and rummaged through it. There were only some clothes and seventy or eighty Thales in it, which made Lucien feel dizzy.
Maybe it was the money that proved Lucien's identity, or maybe it was the fact that there were no weapons in Lucien's suitcase, or maybe it was the generous tip that softened their hearts. After taking the fifty Nars, the two waiters bowed and welcomed Lucien with a smile.
Lucien closed the suitcase and carefully carried it into the wax museum.
The suitcase was specially treated, and there was a hidden compartment at the bottom. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.
