Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 748 Legends and Historical Facts

The night was hanging high, and Yuese City, which had been busy all day, gradually became quiet.

Shenmu Long Street, as an old street on the edge of the lower city, has always been not very safe because it is close to a slum.There were not many people coming here during the day, and it was even more silent at night.

But that night, a gorgeous carriage suddenly drove into this long street.

In the darkness where the street lights couldn't reach, countless evil eyes looked over, but when they saw the sign on the carriage, they all lowered their heads silently.

—The headland under the moonlight.

This sign represents the City Lord's Mansion, and this carriage presumably came from the City Lord's Mansion.

The groom was a young man in aristocratic robes. He also saw those evil eyes in the dark alleyway, but he was not afraid at all. Instead, he waved his horsewhip, showing a look of disdain.

Sitting in the carriage were Nite and Angel.

With embarrassment on his face, Nite lowered his head and said, "Master Pat, I am from the Anjou Dynasty. Although the Luluo Kingdom is a vassal state of the Anjou Dynasty, due to some historical reasons, the nobles of the Luluo Kingdom actually disdain us. Noble title. So I can only ask Charles for help..."

"Charles is a friend I made when I was studying in the academy. He knows the local nobles best."

At this time, the curtain of the carriage door was pulled open, and the head of the young man holding the whip was exposed, and he looked into the carriage eagerly: "Master Wizard, please rest assured, if you want to find someone with profound history, I will definitely be able to help you." Yes. Among the nobles in Yuese City, no one dares not to betray the face of our Manson family."

Because it is a serious crime for ordinary people to talk about history in the Luluo Kingdom, it is difficult to find people who understand history except for the nobles.

Angel nodded: "Young master of the City Lord's Mansion, I will trouble you."

The young groom is exactly the noble friend that Nite mentioned——Charles Manson, who is also the son of the lord of Yuese City.As a local snake, the energy in Yuese City is indeed greater than that of Nit.

"No trouble, no trouble." Charles smiled and narrowed his eyes into crescent moons, revealing two small canine teeth, and the freckles on his cheeks were clearly visible under the candlelight on the car door.

Charles slowly lowered the curtains, and at the same time gave Nate a wink.

Not long after, when the moon slowly settled in the center, Charles' call came from outside: "My lord, we're here."

They stood in front of a small courtyard, where there were large fields of amaryllis flowers and a few unknown fruit trees, and there was a faint fragrance in the wind.The double-storey pointed huts built of stone piers stand among the flowers and fruits.

"Here lives a retired Luluo royal special teacher, named Gurman, with the title of Viscount. He used to be a professor at the Capital Ivy College, and he has a deep research on history." Charles fastened the carriage and explained to Angel , walked forward and knocked on the iron gate.

A crisp sound spread into the courtyard, and soon, a middle-aged woman dressed as a maid came out.

"Who are you?" The middle-aged maid looked suspiciously at the people outside through the door.

"Does Professor Gurman live here?" After the middle-aged maid nodded, Angel said again: "I have some questions, and I want to ask Professor Gurman."

"It's getting late now, the master is about to go to bed, please come back tomorrow."

Before Angel could reply, Charles shouted, "How can that be done! We are going to see Gurman now, the old man lives on the second floor, right? The lights are still on, tell him to come out quickly."

Angor didn't say anything about Charles' attitude, although he originally planned to step back temporarily and fly directly into the house to find Gurman.But since Charles made such a fuss, he simply remained silent.

Faced with Angel's gentle attitude, the maid dared to refuse.But seeing Charles's playful attitude, the maid began to hesitate.

Even though Gurman used to be a specially appointed teacher of the royal family, it was the past after all.The person in front of him looked like a nobleman, and Gurman was living in Yuese City for retirement. If he offended the nobles here and made a little trouble, then they would have a hard time.

Thinking of this, the maid turned her head and looked at the window on the second floor.

Because the arguing was too noisy, at this time, the windows on the second floor, which were covered with creepers, were gently opened.The old Gurman looked outside, and he first noticed Charles.

Doubt flashed across his face, as if he had seen this young man somewhere before, but soon his attention was attracted by the middle-aged man behind Charles.

His pupils shrank, his expression a little surprised.

Without waiting for the maid below to speak, she was the first to make a sound: "Open the door, please come in."

Since even the master said so, the maid didn't say anything, opened the iron fence, bowed her head to everyone, and said, "Guests, please come in."

Charles proudly raised his head towards Nite. Amidst Nite's chuckle, Charles looked at Angor eagerly, wanting to show his merits in front of this mysterious wizard.

However, Angor focused his gaze on Gurman on the second floor at this time, and did not pay attention to Charles' small movements.

If he read it correctly, that Gurman seemed to have changed his expression when he saw him.

Obviously, the middle-aged man that Angel casually transformed did not know each other.Then why did he look surprised?

Under the guidance of the maid, they walked into the house.

The glowing red heater exudes a warm breath, dispelling the chill all over.

"Guests, please sit down first. I'll pour you some hot tea." The maid led them to the sofa near the stove and took their seats. Then she took a few cups and took the teapot from the stove to mix tea for everyone.

At this time, Gurman, who was wearing a thick robe, slowly walked down from the second floor with a cane.

Gurman sat across from the sofa.

After everyone had seen the ceremony, Gurman sent the maid away, and Angel also looked at Nit and Charles, and they walked out of the room with teacups in their hands.

In the living room, Angel and Gurman were the only ones left.

"I'm sorry to bother you so late, Professor Gurman." Angor said in a slightly apologetic tone.

"It's okay, sir, if you have anything to ask." Gurman's demeanor was very gentle and refined, and even a wave of his hand seemed very educated.

Angel raised his eyebrows. Gurman's address to him...was a bit interesting.

"Although the extraordinary world is far away from ordinary people. But as a person who used to work in the royal family, I have come into contact with it. The power of the adult, with an atmosphere that is obviously out of tune with the world, presumably must be from the extraordinary world. Gurman spoke slowly, but his voice carried a convincing power.

"An incompatible breath?" Angel didn't understand for a while: "Professor Gurman, why don't you explain?"

"The sense of presence on the adult is very weak. If you put it in the crowd, you will hardly notice it at all. However, just now, there was a group of adults outside. If you noticed the adult, then the sense of presence of the adult will be improved. Naturally you can find Something is wrong," Gurman said.

Angel suddenly realized.

Although he didn't take the initiative to open the boundless silence now, the effect still exists.It's fine if others didn't pay attention to him, but when Charles made a fuss earlier, Gurman would naturally pay attention to everyone outside, including him.

It's really not difficult to find the strangeness in him.

"I see." Now that he was discovered, Angel simply nodded and admitted: "Yes, I am indeed a transcendent."

Gurman knew from some classics that superhumans possessed extremely powerful power, but they were selfish, and would often have murderous intentions if they disagreed with each other.Therefore, when Gurman spoke, he carefully considered his words one by one: "My lord, I don't know why you came to see the old man? If I understand, I will never hide it."

Angel did not immediately ask about Lucas, but asked, "I don't know Professor Gurman, but have you heard the story of the beauty Naya?"

Beauty Naya?Gurman thought for a moment, "My lord, are you asking about a legend or a historical fact."

"It doesn't matter, why don't you talk about it." Angel changed his posture and said lazily.

"There are two versions of Beauty Naya, so I will start with the folklore. No matter which version, the story of Beauty Naya happened in the Silver Age more than 2000 years ago..."

Gurman finished talking about the two versions of the beauty Naya in one breath.

What Gurman said was almost the same as what Angel understood.According to the folklore, the kind beauty Naya was framed by her sister and sent to a slave ship, where she finally told her story on the ship, shed tears into a sea of ​​flowers, and died at the bottom of the sea.

The historical fact is that a vicious Naya was jealous of all the people who were more beautiful than herself, not only killed them, but also bathed them in blood. Later, she was found by her husband, who killed her and threw her body into the sea.

Angel: "The story of these two beauties, Naya, I wonder which one Professor Gurman thinks is true and which one is false?"

Angel thought that Gurman would directly deny the legend, but he didn't expect Gurman to think for a moment and then said: "No one can tell which is true and which is false. Maybe they are all fake, maybe they are all true. "

"I understand that they are all fake, but they are all true. What do you mean?" Angel said.

Gurman: "The legend may be true. The beauty Naya is indeed buried under the sea. The historical facts may also be true. The vicious Naya is actually the older sister of Naya in the legend. Because she is a twin, the vicious Naya Ya replaces Kind Naya, and others can't tell the difference. Therefore, the story line may also be the same."

Gurman's remarks are almost the same as Angel's previous guess.Perhaps the combination of the two is the real history.

"Moreover, I actually know an unofficial history." Gurman continued: "Naya, she did exist in history. She was a viscountess. According to some research, before she married the viscount, she was actually a local Famously kind-hearted. But according to historical records, after marrying the Viscount, her personality changed abruptly."

"This kind of sudden personality change is actually very rare. Maybe the kind-hearted Naya was killed by her sister and replaced her."

Angel nodded: "This unofficial history may not be true, but it can indeed prove the internal connection between the two versions."

Facing the "surly" wizard, Gurman was still carefully thinking about whether the beauty Naya had any other valuable news, but the other party suddenly changed the subject.

"Leave aside the matter of the beauty Naya for now, I have one more question to ask you. I wonder if Professor Gurman has ever heard of Lucas?"

As soon as Angel's question was answered, Gurman was suddenly stunned.

"Hey, why is it Lucas again?"
