Chapter 79 The Overlooked Mystery

   After returning from the Misty, Li Feng took a rare two-day rest.

  Recalling the half a month of traveling, from wandering in the sea, to finding Moon Shadow Island, and meeting the Abyss Blessed Hunter.

  After taking the Jellyfish, I encountered the Hidden Pirates.

  Finally came to Storm Island. After becoming a priest of Zijinhua Church, he experienced the first officer being possessed by a demon, and the incident where the demon came to the island.

  Finally moved to the White Maple Manor in the Ring of the Earth, and defeated together with his teammates. The hidden pirate who appeared inexplicably once drove the pirate ship Misty.

  Even without mentioning the dangers experienced during this period, but only mentioning the residence, Li Feng felt that he had moved four times.

  Sea, Moon Shadow Island, Zijinhua Church, White Maple Manor.

  However, during these two days of ease, Li Feng was not idle.

  He didn't suffer from multiple injuries, some flesh injuries, even with the treatment of Baifeng Manor, he recovered quickly.

  Afterwards, Li Feng first went to visit his teammates who boarded the boat with him. Although they had known each other for a short time, they were very friendly.

  After returning, Li Feng was still very worried when he heard that they were seriously injured.

  Dream Keeper Jane's ward has a window near the garden. When Li Feng went to visit her, she sat by the window with a blank face, just like she used to.

  Looking at Jian Kongkong's right sleeve, Li Feng couldn't say what he had prepared.

   It is true that some injuries are never healed.

  Deliberately avoiding the topic of losing his right arm, Li Feng chatted with Jane awkwardly, and after asking her if she needed help, Li Feng stood up and left.

   "I usually write with my left hand."

   Looking at Li Feng who was about to leave, Jane suddenly smiled and said something.

   Li Feng standing at the door was stunned for a moment, then nodded and smiled.

  Different from Jane's silence, Candice was very happy to see Li Feng came to visit her, and talked a lot more.

  She said she was going to the South Island to visit a pharmacist, and that pharmacist had a magic potion that could heal the scars.

  Candice, who covered her scars with a dark veil, looked at herself in front of the mirror again and again. She laughed and thought that she looked several years younger after wearing the veil.

   Li Feng is happy for her optimism.

  Equally optimistic as Candice is Benjamin, who lost an eye in that battle.

  He wears the same pirate-style blindfold as a certain opera star, saying that he may also be an opera star.

   Finally, it was Eminem, Li Feng did not see him.

   It is said that after Li Feng came back, he left Baifeng Manor.

  But he left a letter for Li Feng, which said the shelf number of the archives of Baifeng Manor.

   And leave a message saying that there, Li Feng may find what he needs.

  According to Eminem's reminder, Li Feng found a copy of Wood County's county annals in the archives.

   It's Woodshire again.

  Jamie Tilly once mentioned that Flint was associated with Faranell in Woodshire.

  Woodshire, Faranell, Flint, who died 100 years ago, the clues seem to be connected in series.

  Since flint is related to Faranell, and Faranell is from Woodshire, then in order to understand Woodshire, this Woodshire county chronicle is very important.

   Li Feng immediately borrowed this Wood County Chronicle from the archives, and focused on reading the 100-year part.

   But after two days of careful reading, Li Feng didn't find anything particularly valuable.

   Not even the name "Falaniel" appears.

   The only thing he thought was worth noting.

  50 years ago, a noble lady in Wood County died of illness.

  However, at her funeral, a crazy and desperate alchemist came, and he told the wife's husband that he could resurrect the dead lady.

  The husband naturally didn't believe it, so he asked someone to drive away the alchemist.

   But a few months later, the husband went to his wife's cemetery to sweep the grave, only to find that his wife's body had been stolen.

  The husband is an aristocrat who owns a lot of property. He loves his wife very much, so he pays someone to investigate the case.

  According to records, there was a lot of commotion at that time, but the result was not ideal.

  After that, the husband thought of the crazy alchemist, but when he took people to the alchemist's home, he found that the alchemist had already committed suicide.

  According to the coroner, the impoverished alchemist died a few weeks ago.

  At this point, the clues of the case are all broken, and it becomes an unsolved case.

  And this once sensational and bizarre incident was finally recorded in the Wood County Chronicle.

  After reading this case, Li Feng felt that the profession of an alchemist overlapped with that of Faraniel.

   Moreover, the county annals said that he committed suicide by drinking a bullet, which seems to coincide with Flint secretly.

  However, the age does not match, Jamie Tilly said that Lanier died a hundred years ago.

  Of course, the news he got may not be completely correct.

   But there is one thing that Li Feng can't figure out.

  As the person who can pay attention to the existence behind Moon Shadow Potion, and Faranell, who can write the profound and complicated knowledge on the 10-page manuscript, will he fall down?

   Not so much.

   Even if he casually sells some of his alchemy potions, he will live a much better life than ordinary people.

   In short, it is not enough to say in the county annals that you are impoverished and rely on people to help you survive?

   But these are all just Li Feng's guesses.

  Whether there is any relationship between them is hard to say now.

  …

  The bright moon as bright as a silver plate is gradually setting, and the eastern sky is turning pale.

  Today is July 15th.

  In the early morning, Li Feng sat at the desk, quietly looking at the "15" in large font on the calendar.

   Today is the 15th day since he traveled here with other players, and it is also the day when the first cycle ends, as the system said.

  The system has never clearly stated what the first period means. Li Feng and other players default it to be the settlement task and the date for choosing a faction.

   Li Feng opened the system panel and called out the player's mission progress.

  Because Li Feng has completed the mission long ago, he hasn't paid attention to other players' mission progress recently.

   Looking at it now, after 15 days, the number of players who have completed the three tasks has reached 618.

  The current number of survivors is 787, 90 people were killed by the abyss camp, and 123 people died in other incidents.

   In other words, the vast majority of players have completed the mission.

  The [Countdown of the first cycle of the game] under the task progress has changed from less than 2 days yesterday to a countdown that decreases by the second.

  Although I don't know what the purpose of the first cycle of the system is, but Li Feng can't see any tricks, so he simply doesn't think about it.

  There is a big event in Wind's Rest today, that is, the governor will hold a grand parade dinner to repel the demons.

   And Li Feng also has something to do, he is going to visit Bishop Frey who is in a trance due to self-blame.

  Yesterday afternoon, Priest Ralph came to visit Li Feng at the White Maple Manor, and he told Li Feng what happened outside these days.

  On the few days when Li Feng participated in the Misty incident, mutant rats ran rampant in the dock area, and many people were injured by rats.

  Bishop Frey is very kind. He has been doing his best to treat the injured people.

   During this period, he met a seriously injured little boy.

  The little boy is an orphan with a miserable life experience. Before he was injured, he had been running errands for a living in the dock area.

   Bishop Frey looked at the little boy, and couldn't help but think of what happened to him when he was a child, and felt very sympathetic to him.

  The bishop intended to keep him in the church to provide him with opportunities for education.

  The little boy is also very sensible. After his injury improved, he has been doing his best to help the busy bishops and priests and do what he can.

   This was a happy ending, but it happened one night.

  For some reason, the little boy who was taking care of the patient suddenly changed.

   Just like in Bishop Frey's dream, the shark's head poked out from under the boy's ribs.

  After that, he became a terrible demon just like the first mate.

   But this is not the most tragic part. The most tragic part is that the little boy was taking care of the sick before the mutation.

  After the mutation, these patients just became the targets of his attacks.

  The tragedy happened in an instant.

at last.

  Dozens of patients and several priests died from the mutated boy, and the mutated boy was finally killed by Jolly Fair and a group of knights.

  After the little boy died, the mutated rats in the dock area disappeared. No matter how hard the soldiers of Storm's End searched, they couldn't find one.

   Accordingly, the governor announced that the demons had been repulsed, which is why he decided to hold a banquet this evening.

  But the same incident dealt a great blow to Bishop Frey.

  He blamed himself for leaving the little boy in church.

  If he was allowed to return to the dock area after his injury recovered, it would not have caused so many patients and priests to die in an instant.

  Also, if he had foreseen all this a long time ago, if he had not rescued the little boy and allowed him to die, or killed him beforehand, would it have been possible to prevent him from being descended by demons and killing innocent people?

  According to Ralph, Bishop Frey has been stuck in these problems for the past two days, and his condition seems to be getting worse and worse. He hopes that Li Feng can persuade the bishop.

   “I keep thinking, am I doing something wrong?”

  In Zijinhua Church, Bishop Frey asked Li Feng.

  He was much thinner than when he parted with Li Feng last time.

  Li Feng is not a person who can comfort and enlighten people, but now he can at least use the knowledge of the time traveler.

  After being fooled by all kinds of chicken soup, Bishop Frey improved a lot.

   It seems that he has found someone to confide in, and Bishop Frey talked a lot with Li Feng.

  I thought it was just talking about some parents, but there were two things that Li Feng felt more and more wrong the more he listened.

  First, Bishop Frey wanted to keep the little boy in the church for another reason besides seeing his own childhood.

  That is him as a light prayer, seeing the little boy's future in the candlelight.

  In the candlelight, he saw that little boy became a strong and upright praying light, and brought a brighter future to Zijinhua Church.

  Bishop Frey believed in his foresight, which he believed to be a revelation from the Goddess of Wisdom and Life.

  So when the final tragedy happened, it was even more difficult for him to accept.

   But this revelation sounded to Li Feng more like it was given to him by a demon or an evil **** in order to destroy the bishop.

  Because in the job introduction of the system, the description of the praying person is:

  "Fate often gives enlightenment to the light praying people, but be careful, it may be the whisper of evil gods."

  Combined with Bishop Frey, this is obviously wrong, and the enlightenment that brought shock to the praying people, how could it be given by the Goddess of Wisdom and Life.

   But the question is, will things really end here?

  Demons or evil gods, taking risks to influence the believers of the goddess, just to kill a few patients, and then hit Bishop Frey?

   Is it really that simple? Rather than a follow-up plan?

  As if to strengthen Li Feng's doubts, he quickly confirmed the second matter from Bishop Frey.

  When the mutated little boy was killed, all the mutated rats that had been rampant in the dock area disappeared.

  The explanation given by Storm's End is that the coming demons have been repelled, and they have rolled back into the sea, so the rats disappeared.

   But from Li Feng’s point of view, this thing is just like fighting a boss in a game. When the boss dies, the mobs disappear, and then everyone opens the box together.

   But is this a game? Li Feng really hoped that it was a game, but in reality it was not.

   Could it be that after the demon failed to descend, the mutated mice lined up and threw themselves into the sea?

  Where is such a strange reason.

   These two unreasonable situations made Li Feng always feel that this matter would not end so easily.

   What's more, Susan and Marcus are still missing.

  The hot wind in midsummer blows through the courtyard of the church, disturbing the shadows of the trees.

   "Are you really not going? This banquet, the king's envoy, and some high-level officials from the Ring of the Earth will also participate."

  The kestrel, who is fine today, also came to visit the bishop.

  As prominent figures in Wind's Rest, both Kestrel and Bishop were invited to the governor's dinner today.

  Li Feng, as a person involved in the Misty incident, and under the operation of the Kestrel, is also on the invitation list.

  But hearing what Kestrel said, Li Feng shook his head.

   Kestrel really treated him very well, and he understood what Kestrel meant. Kestrel was providing him with the opportunity to meet high-ranking and powerful people.

   It's like getting acquainted with the king's envoy and the high-level officials of the Ring of the Earth.

  Even if this is an extraordinary world, interpersonal relationships are needed, and connections need to be expanded.

   "By the way, the great fortune teller of Storm's End will also participate. She has no status in Storm's End, but the Ring of the Earth is very interested in people with divination ability."

   The meaning of the kestrel is obvious.

   This means that she has a future in the future, you can get acquainted with her when she is down and down, the future is all about connections.

  But the corner of Li Feng's mouth twitched after hearing this, he still had doubts about the divination ability of the great fortune teller.

  If the Ring of the Earth is interested in his divination, then maybe how many of its own people will be tricked in the future.

  Taking back to complaining, Li Feng still thanked Kestrel and declined his kindness.

  There are too many unsolved mysteries in the whole demon affair.

  Why did the Misty grow a heart, and where did the devil's claws that made the devil's puppet come from.

   There are also Susan and Marcus, who are missing.

  Susan is suspected to be related to the hidden person, and Marcus seems to have gone crazy.

  Then there is the revelation that Bishop Frey was suspected to be influenced by demons, and the mouse that suddenly disappeared.

  These few things have not yet come to fruition, Li Feng always feels that something is going to happen faintly, as for the banquet, he is not in the mood at all.

   And besides that, there is one more thing about being a player.

   Today is the last day of the so-called first cycle.

  Looking at the setting sun, Li Feng, who used to be naturally straight when the boat reached the bridge, suddenly paid attention to this matter.

  I didn’t think much about it before, and I didn’t have time to think about it.

   It's really time, he suddenly felt.

  Since there is a first cycle, does it also mean that there is a second cycle, a third cycle...

  So, after today is over, the system will arrange new player tasks.

or…

  After today ends, the system will bring in a new batch of players, just like they did 15 days ago.

   After all, they are not the first batch of players.

   But if this is the case, what about the original body of the player?

  Will it die directly?

  Travelable has never heard of a mass death event.

   Didn't they come across from the same world?

   But how to explain this, that special lamp for alchemy that is exactly the same as Bunsen burner?

coincide? The usual world?

  No matter what, Li Feng feels that this game system that can digitize supernatural power and faintly surpass the supernatural world is not so simple.

   The transitional chapter of summarizing and finding problems is over, and the plot will continue later.
