Chapter 193 Night Watcher

The gray fog dissipated, and the shrill meow of a cat rang in Roman's ears.

He was panting heavily, feeling exhausted.

The scene changed, and he was shocked to realize that he had never left the same place at all, and the so-called escape seemed to be just a dream.

On the garbage heap, a skinless cat about a foot long was hunched up, its two dark eyes staring in one direction, as if facing a formidable enemy.

A mysterious man in a black robe and hood walked slowly, his face hidden in the hood, and his appearance and figure could not be seen clearly.

On his black robe, there is a crimson moon embroidered on it, which looks like a charming and blurred eye. It has a mysterious power that makes one's heart and soul tremble after looking at it for a long time!

"The night watchman of the Scarlet Moon Church!" Roman exclaimed, feeling overjoyed.

The Church of the Scarlet Moon is one of the churches with the largest number of believers on this continent. It worships the crimson moon in the sky as its god and believes that he is the master of darkness and mystery, possessing power that transcends all.

Night watchmen are a kind of position. They sign a contract with the Lord of the Scarlet Moon through certain rituals, master the extraordinary power, fight various monsters and evil god believers in the dark night, and guard the peace of the world.

Roman worked in a tavern and came into contact with many different kinds of people, so he had some understanding of this aspect.

Of course, as an ordinary person, he was also exposed to the secrets and shadows hidden behind the bright world for the first time.

Thinking of the horrific experience of having his heart dug out and skinned, Roman was frightened and vowed that he would never go home so late again!

The night watchman stopped when he was still ten steps away from the skinless cat. His black robe fluttered lightly in the night wind, and he crossed his hands in front of his belly, assuming a posture to meet the enemy.

The skinless cat let out a low cry, and its black eyes seemed to be able to swallow its soul. It jumped off the garbage pile and walked forward with light and agile steps. As it walked, its cry became more urgent, one after another, shrill and strange!

Roman's mind was tingling, everything in front of him disappeared, leaving only all kinds of crazy, inexplicable, chaotic, and flamboyant colors, making people feel sick just by looking at it.

The shrill meows in his ears were endless, and the weird tones and frequencies penetrated deep into his consciousness, making him want to yell and run wildly, but his body was out of control, as if his soul and body were being controlled by an inexplicable force.

The power separates the general.

This sense of confusion was even more unbearable than the previous illusion of heart-cutting and skinning. Seeing his breathing getting louder and louder, his eyes turning red, he was about to fall into a state of madness.

At this moment, an image of a painting appeared in the depths of his consciousness!

He saw this painting from his recently moved neighbor, an Oriental boy named Hao who called himself a traveler.

Hao is a strange person. This is not only because of his skin and hair color that are completely different from the small town and even the entire Duke Kingdom, but also because of his words and actions.

He has no respect for the gods, even the Lord of the Scarlet Moon, one of the few righteous gods in this world, and often utters blasphemous words.

If someone in the church hears it, even now in the dawn of the Renaissance, when all kinds of ideas are budding, I am afraid they will be burned at the stake.

In particular, the Kingdom of Duke belongs to the Church of Scarlet Moon. Every king must be crowned by the Archbishop of Duke Diocese of Scarlet Moon before he can ascend to the throne. The conservative forces are especially strong and are full of rejection of various disciplines that have been developed in the Dawn Era.

Condon City, where Roman grew up, is a small city in the north of the Duke Kingdom, with a population of only tens of thousands. The city owner, Viscount Landil, is said to have the blood of the Duke family, the ruler of the kingdom.

Of course, no one can confirm this, but this does not affect the absolute authority that His Excellency the Viscount has in Condon City.

Because of its remote location, Kangton City has not been greatly affected by the outside world and maintains its traditional customs.

The nobles were polite, loved literature, liked to socialize, and often held various dances; the slaves were docile and silent, working quietly under the whip of the overseer, from birth to death, without any worries; the common people struggled to survive, hovering on the line of food and clothing.

On the other hand, sometimes just an unexpected illness can tear a family apart!

Everything looks so peaceful and peaceful.

No one can break this stability, especially after a small businessman in the city bought a loom, but ended up being surrounded and beaten to death for ruining the lives of dozens of weaver families.

What do people want to change?

Hao's apostasy frightened everyone, and almost no one dared to come into contact with this "devil from the east"!

Someone once wanted to inform the church and expose him, but they always failed due to various accidents. Over time, he was regarded as an ominous person and cursed by the devil.

Hao opened a bookstore in the poor neighborhood where Roman grew up, which caused him to be criticized by many neighbors. Because the poor people did not know how to read, this was undoubtedly a bad investment and was destined to lose money in the end.

However, Roman's sister Linna really likes to buy some books in bookstores. She works as a maid in the house of a noble man in the city, and she has a deep thirst for knowledge under the influence of her ears.

It was for this reason that Luo Mancai had more contact with Hao. Over time, he found that he was actually a very talkative person, and gradually became acquainted with him.

This painting was painted by Hao himself, and Roman watched the entire process of its creation.

This painting depicts a starry sky. There are bright stars embedded in the dark and deep night. It has an indescribable mysterious atmosphere!

At that time, Roman paid more attention to this painting. Although he did not understand painting skills, he could still see the special features of this painting.

However, nothing unusual had happened until this moment, when Roman encountered a life-and-death crisis.

In his mind, a star suddenly appeared, dazzling and dazzling, with an unspeakable majesty and momentum, as if it was an emperor among the stars!

If Roman knew Eastern astrology, he would know that this star is named Ziwei, also known as Beichen. It is the lord of the stars and the master of all phenomena. He controls the latitude and longitude of the sky, commands the stars in the sky, heads up to the Golden Tower, and down to Fengdu.

, is the master of the stars in the sky.

The moment after the purple star appeared, each star appeared in Roman's mind, each in its own place, rotating endlessly, forming a gorgeous and vast star map, with an indescribable vicissitude and weight!

The star map shone brightly in his mind, and Roman's soul, which was almost pulled out of his body, immediately stabilized and was no longer disturbed by the cat's meowing.

Looking ahead, the night watchman and the skinless cat were already fighting together.
