Chapter 60 - 60. A wizard appears in Leman Town

Rudolf regretted that the wizard weapon Endless Bullet Nest needed to use the Cancer witch language, which was the witch language of the last water sign.

  He could only wait for the Cancer month and wait for the sun to move to the star field of Cancer before he could learn the Cancer witch language.

  Rudolf threw the body of the hive priest into the pile of aphid corpses.

  After pouring kerosene, the fluffy aphid corpses, with sufficient air in the middle, plus sufficient protein and oil, burned a very vigorous flame.

  After dealing with the things here, Rudolf prepared to investigate the results in the surrounding farms to see if the aphids in the farmland would be better after the death of the hive priest.

  When the farmer accompanied Rudolf to observe the farmland the next day, he found that many aphids in the farmland had died overnight.

  Some aphids were very strong and they were still alive after the death of the priest, but there were not many of them, so the farmer could deal with them with pesticides.

  The farmer was surprised at first, dancing with joy, but after a while, his features gradually froze and he looked painful.

  "Patrolman Rudolph, why didn't you come earlier?"

  Even if the aphids were dead now, his farmland would be barren.

  Farmland is so fragile that perhaps an untimely heavy rain could destroy the farmers' work for a year.

  Rudolph tried to give some other suggestions: "It's only May now, can't we plant some other crops?"

  The farmers gathered around and began to discuss how to make up for the losses as much as possible.

  Rudolph also took out a confirmation form and asked the farmer to sign his name on the document.

  On the confirmation form, Rudolph set fire to an insect nest, and the number of aphids within a few kilometers around was greatly reduced.

  After returning to the police station, Rudolph handed the confirmation form to Sheriff Claude.

  "Sheriff, I have found the cause of the insect plague! And I have eliminated an aphid nest!"

  Sheriff Claude was stunned. He really didn't expect that things would come to a conclusion so quickly.

  He took the police dispatch confirmation sheet, which briefly described the process and the farmer's confirmation of the results.

  "In other words, the insect plague was not caused by the climate, but was deliberately caused by the evil god insect nest? Evil god insect nest, this is my first time to encounter this kind of heretical apostle."

  "Yes. I used up all my bullets and all the kerosene before I burned the insect nest to death.

  Sheriff, you have to give me more alchemical bullets and reimburse me for the kerosene."

  "That's easy." Sheriff Claude nodded with satisfaction. His patrol captain was really capable.

  The Leman Town Police Station was the first police station to find the cause of the insect plague. He had to make a report to the superior police station.

  Sheriff Claude suddenly remembered the witch hunter Kevin. It would be better to write about the word spirit in the report. It was the word spirit that accurately predicted the source of the aphids.

  "Also, Sheriff, I'm a bit short of money recently. Can you give me some bonus?"

  "That's easy to say. Since you found the source of the insect plague very quickly, I'll apply for some bonus for you."

  Sheriff Claude said, and he looked for the bonus approval form in the drawer.

  At this moment, the sheriff's door was opened.

  Rudolph turned around and found that it was the farmer he had just met yesterday.

  The farmer said hurriedly:

  "Mr. Sheriff, Patrolman Rudolph... The aphids disappeared for one day and came back again!"

  Rudolph saw desperately that Sheriff Claude put the bonus approval form back into the drawer and just looked at Rudolph.

  Rudolph wiped his face and asked, "What do you mean?"

  Sheriff Claude said, "At least eliminate three insect nests, exclude accidental factors, and prove that the insect plague is caused by the evil god's insect nest, and I will give you another bonus."

  Rudolph shook his head helplessly, put his arm around the farmer's shoulder and left the sheriff's office.

  "Boss, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. I can only say that there are more evil god nests than I imagined..."

  Just after Rudolph left, policewoman Kelita walked in.

  Sheriff Claude looked at Kelita in confusion, meaning what are you doing here.

  "Sheriff, Rudolph just boasted that he can get the bonus. I'm here to take the bonus approval form so that I can give him the bonus."

  "Rudolph hasn't even received his bonus yet, and he's already boasting? Haha, it's not right to say that he messed up without the bonus. It can only be said that he didn't completely handle it."

  "I've been saying that Captain Rudolph is so amazing. He's simply a legend among patrolmen. Even Old Baby said that the police station hasn't seen such a patrol captain for a long time.

  An ordinary person can catch level 1 werewolves every month. He was previously called the 'Little Prince of Werewolves' by us.

  It would be fine if he was experienced, but now, he can even deal with the evil god priest. It's really exaggerated!

  Fortunately, he didn't succeed, otherwise we would all think that our guns are not the same model.

  By the way, Sheriff, did you make a special revolver for Rudolph? How come he is so amazing?"

  Sheriff Claude shook his head: "Of course not. How could I give special treatment to such a key weapon for saving lives and killing enemies? Even if I have a very powerful gun, I will equip each of you with one."

  "Sheriff, is Rudolph your illegitimate son?"

  Sheriff Claude was stunned: "How could there be such a rumor? How could Rudolph be my illegitimate son? No, how could I have a illegitimate child? This is slander, absolutely slander!"

  Kelita obviously didn't believe it. She felt that with the sheriff's style, how could he not have a illegitimate child.

  After Kelita left, Sheriff Claude was thinking about something.

  The sacrifices in recent months have all been level 1 werewolves captured by Rudolph.

  If Rudolph has found the trick to capture level 1 werewolves, then the priest of the evil god's nest this time can't be explained by experience.

  Sheriff Claude thought of a possibility. He took out a bottle of good wine from the cabinet and went out.

  In the cemetery of Leman Town, the gravekeeper Old Gray was basking in the sun on a lounge chair.

  The sound of footsteps made Old Gray open his eyes slightly. He turned around and saw that it was Claude, so he closed his eyes again.

  Claude put the bottle of wine in Old Gray's arms: "Old Gray, I have something I want you to answer."

  Hearing the crisp sound of liquid hitting the glass bottle, Old Gray smiled.

  "Go ahead, little Claude."

  Claude hadn't heard this name for a long time.

  Old Gray has been the gravekeeper since Claude was born.

  When Claude was a child, he would come to the cemetery in the middle of the night to stir up ghosts and scare Old Gray, but Old Gray scared him so much that he peed his pants instead.

  "Old Gray, you know Rudolph, right? He's the one who always comes to the cemetery to bury offerings."

  "I know that kid. Every time he comes to the cemetery, he never comes empty-handed. He's a good kid. I thought you taught him that. He's very sensible."

  "Old Gray, Rudolph is too lucky. He and Yvonne can kill a level 1 werewolf alone, and now they can kill the priest of the evil god's nest. This is a bit abnormal."

  "Why, the patrolmen die too slowly, and you feel uncomfortable?"

  "What you said, I was the first to rush into every operation before. It's just that Rudolph is so capable that it seems that I haven't been active recently. There's nothing we can do about the high death rate of patrolmen. The death rate of patrolmen in Leman Town is the lowest in the vicinity. I have tried my best."

  "Then what do you want to say?"

  Sheriff Claude asked very seriously: "Old Gray, among you guys, is there anyone who has taken a fancy to Rudolph? And gave him some help?"

  Old Gray squinted, thinking about how to answer.

  "Little Claude, your teacher and I have an agreement.

  The town of Leman will send all the sacrifices to me as my collection. I will be responsible for handling the follow-up to prevent those sacrifices from having any tails.

  You can't handle all the corpses.

  I have the final say in the cemetery, but I don't care outside the cemetery.

  Even if I did something to Rudolph in the cemetery, you shouldn't ask about it."

  "I know." Claude said hurriedly:     

"This agreement is good for both you and me. I mean, about Rudolph.

  I originally wanted him to become an alchemist, but now something unexpected must have happened, and I want to get the correct situation."

  "Then why don't you ask Rudolph?"

  Sheriff Claude said, "If it's your arrangement, I believe Rudolph himself doesn't know he's been arranged. He's just a teenager."

  Old Gray remembered that night, he was originally going to receive a new collection, the level 3 wizard, Bloody Seren. He

  temporarily lent the level 3 zombie tooth to Bloody Seren, just to prevent Seren from being killed directly by the Judgment Bureau.

  However, before he could find a suitable new body for the charred-like Seren, Bloody Seren was killed by Rudolph.

  The wizard Seren was not obtained, and the zombie tooth was lost.

  Old Gray couldn't bring himself to attack Rudolph directly.

  He hadn't seen such a bold young man for a long time. He hesitated for a while, observed Rudolph for a while, and thought this young man was very interesting. But he didn't take a fancy to him, mainly because Rudolph was not suitable to be a zombie.

  The person he chose was still training in the wild in the wind and rain.

  Cooper and Rudolph had a good relationship. They had established a good friendship and trust.

  Sometimes, when he was too lazy to go or it was inconvenient to go to the wilderness, he could ask Rudolph to help Cooper.

  As for the Level 3 Zombie Tooth, he would borrow Rudolph for a while.

  More importantly, Old Gray didn't want Rudolph to really embark on the path of an alchemist. He felt that everyone was a heretic apostle, and Rudolph was fine as he was now.

  Old Gray unscrewed the whiskey and took a big sip directly from the bottle:

  "We are all from Leman Town. Leman Town is so small and there are so many people. It's not easy to find a good young man.

  I can only tell you that it's not me who chose Rudolph."

  Sheriff Claude automatically completed this sentence, saying that someone else had chosen Rudolph.

  "I understand. I will also pay attention to Rudolph in the future. As you said, there are so many people in Leman Town. It's not easy for a good young man to appear."

  On the way back, Sheriff Claude sighed that Rudolph was lucky.

  When he was young, he was so outstanding that he was not favored by those people, which resulted in him being only a level 2 alchemist now.

  Perhaps it was because those people, including Old Gray in front of him, were very resistant to knights and alchemists. Especially knights. In Leman Town, there has never been a level 3 knight, only a level 3 knight zombie.

  Claude suddenly stopped on the road. If he was promoted to a level 3 alchemist, wouldn't he also be disliked by those people? Would he be beaten to death?

  After thinking about it, Claude decided to secretly prepare for his promotion ceremony.

  Level 1 alchemists need to master the alchemy skills of metal lead and can make alchemy lead bullets, usually shotgun shells.

  Level 2 alchemists need to master the alchemy skills of metal copper and can make alchemy bullets.

  Level 3 alchemists need to master the alchemy skills of metal iron.

  When he becomes a level 3 alchemist, he can have more flexible weapons. The application range of iron is much wider than that of copper.

  In addition to weapons, iron can also be used on large machinery, which makes the ability of alchemists more practical.

  As for Rudolph, now that someone is in charge, he won't bother with it and just let him be.

  Rudolph didn't know yet that there was a discussion about him in the cemetery. In the following days, he kept looking for the Hive Priest in the wilderness.

  Even without Kevin's divination, Rudolph had figured out some experience. As long as he was around the farm and followed the flight path of the aphids, he would soon find the Hive Priest.

  Rudolph stayed around the farmer. After he cleared out three Hive Priests in a row, black aphids did not appear on the farm for a long time.

  He also harvested a lot of the Hive Priest's relics.

  When Rudolph left the farm, two people who shouldn't be here were riding horses in the wilderness outside the farm, looking for something.

  Kevin, and... Ms. Jessica.

  Ms. Jessica said apologetically:

  "Mr. Kevin, I'm sorry to bother you. I heard that there are fewer black aphids here, so I came here to investigate."

  "Not to mention the grains in Leman Town, just for the beautiful Ms. Jessica, I am eager to make this trip."

  Kevin's horse was one step behind Jessica.

  He looked at Ms. Jessica's delicate profile and felt that the time was very beautiful.

  The wind in May was no longer cold, but it didn't seem hot. The wind was just right, blowing Jessica's black hair.

  A few strands of hair fluttered slightly in the wind, occasionally revealing Ms. Jessica's white neck.

  The white jade-like skin reflected light in the sun.

  As for the aphid plague, it had nothing to do with Kevin now. It was just that Ms. Jessica was worried about the plague, otherwise Kevin would rather stay with Jessica in the laboratory, even if it was to prepare insecticides, it would be more comfortable than going out.

  Kevin's ability was also so useful when preparing insecticides.

  He spent three nights to directly divine the formula ratio of the insecticide, which won the praise of Ms. Jessica.

  At this time, Jessica had come to the burned-to-death insect nest priest.

  The burnt insect nest priest would not produce plague, so Rudolf did not bury him.

  At this time, Kevin wanted to attract Jessica's attention again:

  "Beautiful lady, I know this place.

  I once did divination for Patrolman Rudolf of the police station and helped him find one of the sources of black aphids.

  I heard that he helped a farm solve the insect plague because of this, and I also heard that he would be awarded the annual outstanding patrolman this year.

  My divination played a little role here."

  Jessica smiled like a flower and looked at Kevin gently: "You are unexpectedly excellent, Mr. Kevin."

  Kevin stepped forward:

  "I am a professional. What do you need me to do? I will help you.

  This corpse is so dirty, don't pollute your delicate palms and the white back of your hands."

  Standing next to Jessica, Kevin looked at Jessica's collar, where he could see the white leading to the deep.

  He was so attached to the hazy white light that intoxicated him.

  This was his white moonlight...

  "Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Kevin. I want to see who can create so many aphids."

  Kevin had some understanding of the Hive Priest. He pointed at the priest's arm with his cane:

  "Beautiful lady, please look, this is the organ that produces insects.

  Generally, Hive Priests will implant this modified Hive in certain parts of their bodies.

  Look at this, it can even be made into a magic weapon by a wizard..."

  Kevin was stunned. He had dealt with wizards before and knew that wizards would collect apostle relics, which were only useful to wizards.

  At this time, the relics of the Hive Priest had been taken away and disappeared...

  "What's wrong, Mr. Kevin, is there something wrong?"

  Kevin's keen intuition told him that wizards appeared in Leman Town.

  At this moment, Kevin thought a lot.

  This location was what he told Patrolman Rudolph by divination...

  "It's okay..." Kevin pointed to other burnt pits on his arm: "Look at these places, they are all organs that produce aphids..."

   Two-in-one
