Two Hundred Festivals: Time in Silent Hill (1)(1/2)
"Welcome to Silent Hill."
Standing on the train station platform that looked like a typhoon passing through, with everything waiting to be done, Instructor Emmet Selk raised his cane in the direction of the Central Provincial Investigation Officer who got off the train.
Humph, I'm afraid those from the mainland have never seen a real typhoon.
With the arrogance that only a son of the sea can have, he shook hands with this young man wearing a top hat and a black dress: "Emetselke Quasser, the mentor of the Church of the Harvest Goddess in Carter Castle, who is passing by here.
At that time, my apprentices, I, and everyone from the Mercy Church were involved."
"I have heard about what happened to you. I am really sorry." The young man said to Emmetselke with some regret: "Zem Meyer, leader of the third team of the Special Investigation Section of the Royal Family's Special Investigation Office."
"Welcome to Silent Hill. The bishops have been doing everything possible to clean up the corpses recently. There are too many of them. If they are not disposed of quickly, there may be a major epidemic."
"I know that bishops are always very busy, and then they will leave all the seemingly unimportant tasks to you, just like our section chiefs."
Such a conversation suddenly narrowed the distance between the two parties. Emmet Selk smiled and said, "Call me Quaser. It's simpler than my name. People who know me well will call me that."
"Then call me Zem. My name is relatively simple. I heard that what happened this time was not simple. I want to find out from you how extraordinary it is." Zem finished.
, perhaps thinking of something, he turned around and looked at his companion: "This is Jiaxi Sheringham, my Watson."
"Salute to you, Mr. Tutor, I am a devout believer of the Harvest Goddess." The young man smiled and grinned: "I will keep it secret."
Faced with Zem's question, Emmetselke shrugged: "No comment, the bishops' conference has issued a gag order on this matter. If you want to ask, just find a breakthrough from them."
"Oh, it's those old men again, but then again, since they have issued a gag order, then this is not simple, it is really, really not simple." Zem used two consecutive adjectives.
Emmet Selke took them out of the platform and came to a scooter - it only took half a month for this city to lose more than half of its population. He was here to pick them up today. He was the instructor responsible for handling the corpses.
A friend gave him this new oil-burning four-wheeler. To be honest, although the exhaust fumes smelled a little unpleasant to him and the engine noise sounded a bit noisy, but... this thing is really interesting.
Emmet Selk was going to save some money and buy one too.
"Wow, Santander 1788, Mr. Quassel, where did you find this classic car? This thing is older than my father." A certain Watson sighed in a very surprised tone.
.
"In the hands of some unlucky man." After saying that, Emmett Selke got into the car: "Sit down, I suggest you strap on the safety rack, I'm ready to go."
"How many miles do I think this classic car can run, 10 or 20?" Jiaxi jumped into the back seat and looked at Zem who sat in and smiled.
The latter put on his seat belt expressionlessly.
"Oh my god, can you stop being such a child!" Jiaxi shouted in a very exaggerated way.
Glancing at the rear view window hanging on the top of the car window, Emmett Selke smiled and inserted the key in his hand into the keyhole.
………………
Marin was testing the three boys brought back by Jessica. These three children were able to ignore the infection, which surprised all the bishops. So as soon as the matter was over, the bishops asked Marin to be responsible for testing these three children.
The child's blood tracing and magical affinity were done just like what he had done in the Harvest Goddess Church before. However, Marin did not know the magic techniques and was only responsible for supervision. The person who performed the techniques was naturally the local Harvest Goddess Church——
These three children are basically Marin's servants.
Sidney United does not recognize slaves. The parents of these three children sold their children out of helplessness and could not let them jump into the fire pit. Marin could not accept them as adopted children, so they made them the first batch of servants of the family.
is the most suitable choice, and if they perform very well in the test, Marin does not mind letting these three children break away from their servant status, become a freeman, and then become an apprentice.
Blood tracing involves drawing blood. Although these three little guys were very scared, they still completed the blood drawing with the encouragement of Jessica without crying or making trouble. This made Jessica greatly relieved: "I thought they
It will make me have a headache." The wolf girl sighed beside Marin.
"I think so too, they are too young, especially Rose." After Marin finished speaking, he reached out and patted Jessica on the shoulder: "Come on, we are here to perform a surgical rapport on them. You can pick them up."
Cross."
Lilim, Maya and Cross have already come over with a stone slab each. Jessica and Cross exchanged words. Cross came over and stood with Marin and Faye, holding the observation scope and started
Observation.
"Wait a minute, have we forgotten something?" Just when Marin raised the mirror, he suddenly thought of his past self.
Cross was stunned: "Test the potion!"
So Jessica ran into the hall carrying the small metal bucket. Marin looked at the small metal bucket and felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy.
When Marin was thinking this, Jessica poured out four small cups from the bucket, handed them to the three children respectively, and then took a cup for herself: "It's very bitter, but sister Jessica and you
Drink together and don't spit it out."
The three children nodded vigorously, and then they raised their necks and drank the potion together.
Marin looked at the three children and their faces almost wrinkled up, but surprisingly, none of them vomited. Even the youngest Rose just sobbed twice and collapsed under the gaze of his brothers.
He opened his mouth.
Then he turned and looked aside, Jessica was vomiting in the corner.
"This Jessica is really embarrassed." Cross' face was full of embarrassment.
Lilim held up the magic crystal of recording with one hand, and seemed ready to keep this unique scene.
Faye smiled and slumped on Marin's shoulder.
Maya poured herself a glass and drank it before Marin could stop her.
The scene was unprecedentedly tense. Marin stared at the little leopard in stunned silence, and then watched her happily pour another glass.
Wait a minute, my silly leopard! What kind of drink are you going to drink?
After stopping Maya's cup refill, Marin had to take Jessica's place, and then the three little guys started testing.
"Speaking of which, my sister and I feel the same about the name of this slate. The name Test Slate is too popular. As something that can change a child's life destiny, we should call it the Destiny Slate." Faye
While watching Marin teaching the three children to press their hands on the slate, he said to Cross next to him: "By the way, what kind of slate is the first one?"
"It's the Evocation Spell Test Tablet." Cross said, and she let out a wow sound. I really didn't expect that Rose would be so bright.
In the eyes of the three people wearing observation glasses, Bill's slate was dim, Jack's slate had only a few sparks, and Rose's slate seemed to be burning.
"Zero points, one point...seven points?" Faye turned her head and glanced at Cross.
"Zero points, one point, seven and a half points." Cross said: "Mr. Marin, what do you think?"
"Zero points, one point, seven points." Marin felt that in this position, the light was already a bit red and dazzling.
"There is no objection to Bill and Jack's score. Rose will take seven." Faye turned to look at Matilda who was in charge of recording: "...Forget it, let's count it as seven and a half. I feel like I gave it a low score."
The big-eared fox happily wrote down the scores in the notebook in his hand, then looked at Faye and nodded with a smile.
Marin, Maya, and Lilim changed a set of slates for the three children. This time, there was no need to teach them. The three placed their hands on the second slate.
"I can't feel the light." Cross sighed, and she said to Marin: "I originally thought there would be children who would follow me as apprentices."
"No, Cross, even if there is a high affinity for curse spells, the church's elite punishers still need such talents." Faye said: "Continue to report the scores, one point, zero points, zero points."
"Same, one point, zero points, zero points."
"I second the motion."
After the three people's scoring was over, Matilda wrote the scores on the paper, then looked at the slates and changed another group: "It's the sacred magic test slates, right?"
"No, it's an auxiliary technique." Marin turned around and said, then turned to look at the three children pressing their hands on the stone slab.
Putting his hand on the third stone slab, Marin felt that the three stone slabs in front of him were blooming with the most beautiful flowers for a moment, as if he was in the grassland and a little fairy was flying in front of him.
"It's so beautiful...eight and a half, nine, nine and a half." Putting down the observation mirror she was holding, Cross glanced at Faye: "I feel that the injuries on my body are better, and they are all high."
How did their parents achieve this?"
"How do I know? I only know the scene at that moment, just like the last time we saw the Lord of Justice, I was nine, eight and a half, nine and a half." Faye put down the observation glass and looked at Marin:
"Marin, what do you think?"
Marin thought for a moment: "Matilda, record, nine points, nine points, nine and a half points."
"Okay." Matilda wrote down the record, then looked at the three children: "Shall we continue? I feel that the auxiliary arts are so advanced that they will definitely become apprentices."
"Go on, don't waste the potion." Marin said, and then he, Maya and Cross changed to the test slate of the protection spell.
The three children still looked puzzled. They and she seemed not to understand how their fate would change, so they still put their hands on the fourth stone slab.
"Three zero points...what's the situation?" Faye put down the observation scope in his hand: "No matter what, this shouldn't happen, it should be a little bit anyway."
Cross also put down the observation mirror in her hand: "I wonder if you have heard of the extraordinary gathering theorem."
"I've heard of it, but this is too outrageous." Faye said, looking at the three children.
"Reality does not need to be reasonable. Only novels need this stuff." Marin smiled: "Matilda, three zero points, let's continue and give these three children a complete test."
So he changed the slate, and Marin placed his hand on the fifth slate.
"Strengthen, one point, one point, one point?" Marin put down the observation glass: "Are there such similarities between brothers and sisters?"
"Yes, our curse score is either one point or zero. If it reaches two points, it goes without saying that it is definitely mutated." Lilim said: "If you look at it this way, it is quite normal."
"Indeed, like in our family, no one has ever had a three-point affinity with spells." Jessica finally finished cleaning up her inventory and started to join in the chat.
"Your bloodline has no affinity for magic." Faye said with a smile, "Okay, let's complete the final test."
So Marin replaced the last set of slates for the children.
"The sacred slate of destiny." Faye sighed, and she walked up to the three children: "Come on, children, press your hands."
To be continued...
