Bizarre Detective Agency

Chapter 789: 80. Cape Storm

   Chapter 789 Eighty. Storm Horn

   Team Prisci.

   Lengthy convoys piled up outside Cape Storm Bay.

   There is still some time before the high tide of the night, and people are gathering around the convoy, staring at Storm Corner in amazement.

   "Don't expect him to come back." Bastos, leaning on the cargo box, snorted coldly: "Although I admire his stupidity."

   "Lu...he won't die!" Purseus argued loudly.

   "No one can survive without death, even the gods will be eaten one day." Bastos had no intention of arguing with the little guy, and looked at the World Ridge Mountains in the far horizon.

   "But you brought us with you because you thought he could come back." Katerina sneered with her arms crossed.

   Bastos, who seemed to be hot-tempered and unapproachable, was silent.

   After a while, the knights on the outside of the convoy came to tell Bastos that they found something approaching.

   "Mr. Lu Li must be back!"

  Prius rushed over impatiently.

  Katerina followed, worry hidden deep in her eyes. I hope that Lu Li really comes back... Otherwise, the chance of him surviving will be lower if he doesn't live in the wilderness for a day.

"Land from?"

   Bastos whispered the name that Purseus inadvertently missed, and frowned.

   The approaching shadow caused the team to panic.

  The sight in the monocular spreads, and near them is a giant tree-like monster.

   Bastos and his knights maintained order, shouting "This is a safe area, weirdos don't dare to step in" to keep the team from chaotic.

   Just in case, several caravans on Prissy's convoy lifted their tarpaulins, revealing the weirdness of the ballista and the strong aura hidden below, and beware of the approaching treants.

   It was getting closer and closer, and when he could almost see the outline, the man who observed with the binoculars ran to him in panic and told him that the tree man was weirdly holding a man in his hand.

  …

   "Stop it."

  Lu Li stood in the palm of the guardian.

  The tree-like stubborn guardian didn't listen to Lu Li's words and continued to hold him forward.

   Before arriving at the convoy, seeing the panic on people's faces, and Bastos standing in front of the ballista surrounded by knights, the guardian stopped heavy steps and pushed Lu to leave.

   "Welcome, home, guest."

   muffled whispers rolling around.

   Lu Li walked to the ground and looked back at him: "I will."

The    Guardian stood up, turned and walked into the rising dust.

   "We should keep it," said the big sister in the hood. "That way no one would dare to bully us again."

   "Not now either."

   Looking back, Lu Li looked at the piled-up motorcade, and a hyena running with its tongue out.

   "Mr. Lu Li!"

   He circled around Lu Li's feet, his buttocks twisted and twisted, his tail wagging almost like a steamboat's propeller.

   He behaves more like a domestic dog than a man turned into a hyena or a hyena.

  Katarina then came over, surprised and puzzled: "Is that weird? It actually helps you..."

   "This is Mr. Lu Li!"

  Puseus unconditionally believed in Lu Li.

   Of course, he was a little worried when Lu Li didn't come back all day.

   "The trouble is resolved?" Katerina was also relieved.

   "It won't haunt us anymore."

   Lu Li replied, looking up behind Katarina.

   Bastos ordered the knights and servants to step back, and approached them alone, with a gloomy face.

"who are you?"

"Land from."

   "The rumored exorcist?"

"Um."

   "...I'll pretend I didn't hear anything." Bastos finally chose to ignore it. He is just the head of this team, and he shouldn't know too many secrets, and he can't afford the price of secrets: "I take back what I said before about the solicitation."

   He was a little fortunate: when Katarina and the hyena named Prius followed him, they didn't use any tough tactics.

   "Wait." Lu Li stopped Bastos who was about to leave: "Did you see the escaped... slave?"

   "Slave? That meat...he didn't come back." After saying offensive words, Bastos, who seemed reckless, retracted his words in time.

   Severe ischemia, the blood-smelling slave could hardly escape in the wilderness, or he did not foolishly return to the convoy to become a slave again.

  Hopefully the latter.

   Bastos, who went back, told his subordinates that Lu Li was a guest of a nobleman, and warned them not to disturb them and to be friendly.

   In fact, Bastos's warning is not needed, everyone who saw Lu Li being sent back by the giant monster dared not come to provoke him.

   One secretly watching Zhong Lu Li returned to the convoy.

   "Where's Carolina?"

   "She's gone..." Prius's raised tail hung down. "We tried to stop her but were unsuccessful."

   "What happened." Lu Li frowned.

  Puseus told Lu Li what happened next.

   "I persuaded myself in my heart that Weiner Freezing Port is our dream, and I should go there with her dream, but I can't leave Beiru here alone..."

   Leaving words and gratitude for their help, at the last awake moment, the old man who could see nothing walked into the wilderness alone.

   Sad ending.

  Luli came to the bay and looked at the dozens of stone pillars standing in the bay: they were almost straight, the tops of the 100-meter-high stone pillars were parallel to the ground, and the narrow tops with a diameter of only tens of meters were crowded with buildings.

  Some bridges connect the central pillars, but most of the edge pillars do not have this treatment.

   These stone pillars are the Cape of Storms, where the inhabitants live.

  The former Storm Point is obviously not like this, but after the disaster... the old city of Storm Point sank, leaving only dozens of stone pillars.

  Lili looked towards the bottom of the bay, only the waves with white waves slapping against the jagged rocks.

   "How do the residents above leave?" Lu Li asked.

  Without ropes and steps, how can these almost independent stone pillars connect with the outside world?

  Puseus told Lu Li that the tide would fill up the bay after nightfall, and they could board Midnight City by boat.

  The tide rising 100 meters?

  Looking at the coastline in the distance, it is incomprehensible. But that was the only possibility, considering that the Prisci convoy and several other convoys were waiting in front of the bay, and that there were still some boats parked in the waters outside the bay.

   "Why don't the residents here leave."

  Storm Point is not a safe place by any means.

   "God." When Purse said this word, his voice subconsciously became smaller: "God is sheltering here."

   So here is the Prisci team and the rest, waiting for the night.

   Time passed, at five o'clock in the afternoon, a strange fog emerged from the sea and was blocked by the **** of Stormhorn.

   Night completely shrouded the barren land.

  The fleet lights up oil lamps and fluorite lamps, and arcs of fluorescent light along the edge of the bay.

  The stone pillars of Storm Corner also lit up with star-like light spots. The closer to the center, the brighter the light.

   Gradually, Lu Li heard the sound of distant waves becoming clear.

   "All step back!" the knight on horseback shouted as he passed by.

   In addition to the passengers who were amazed and wanted to spy on what was happening in the dark, the fleet workers who had gone through countless times had already begun to unload the cargo.

  Waiting under the oil lamp for a while, the dampness and coolness came upon me.

  The tide is rising.
