Bizarre Detective Agency: Chapter 736 27. Caravan Numa Curse Title

   Chapter 736 Twenty-seven. Caravan Numa Curse Title

   "They found you?"

  Katarina discovered what Leviathan believers called Lu Li.

"Um."

   And it seems that more than just "purity" has been discovered.

   After all, a pure human being is not enough for the church to issue an invitation.

   Katarina was the happiest about this. There is a suggestion from the church that Lu Li's identity as a pure-blooded human is obviously undisputed——

   "It seems that they are not very interested in you." Katerina said deliberately, opened her pocket and took a look inside. It was full of coins and small denomination notes, which seemed to be two or three hundred shillings.

  Katerina tucked her pockets contentedly, and the screeching of coins was so crisp and pleasant that no one would dislike it—but it wasn’t just a drag on her, it was also noticeable.

  Katerina came to the counter and threw it into the pocket containing the money: "This is the reward that the believers gave me personally, and I want to exchange them for a large sum."

  Two minutes later, Katerina tidied up her chest leather armor and left the tavern, and with Lu Li walked towards the convoy at the end of the street.

   The people in the convoy were standing at the interface waiting for them. He introduced himself as the "convoy breeder", and while taking Lu Li and Katerina to the convoy, he said that Numa had to agree to follow the convoy before starting.

   "Fleet breeders are those who keep some weird people with 'heavy body odor'. They are generally mild and controllable and will not hurt people... The breath can cover up our taste, so that the weirdness in the wilderness will not attack the fleet..."

  Katerina whispered to Lu Li, and then asked, "Who is Numa?"

   "Protect our good boy in the wilderness." The breeder said, walking past the loading and unloading carriage to the tarpaulin-covered caravan.

   "Don't scream and yell when you go in, it will frighten it."

   picked up the oil lamp on the edge of the car, the breeder turned back and reminded, opened the tarpaulin and got inside.

   "It should be fine..." Katerina said, and got into the tarp first.

  Lu Li followed behind, and almost ran into Katerina who stopped suddenly.

   The sound of taking a deep breath came from the front, Lu Li tilted his head, and the oil lamp lit up to see a revealed body.

  It was a creature with a long, flat body, growing beards, and a catfish-like appearance. Its smooth gray-black skin reflected luster under the oil lamp.

  It was kept in an iron cage three meters wide and nearly seven meters long. This is why the caravan looks like a longhouse from the outside.

   The breeder slowed down, but not out of fear, more like he didn't want to scare it. Grab a handful of long-stemmed damp plants outside the cage and put them into the cage.

  "Numa" behaved completely different from the weirdness Katerina knew. It ate as meekly as a cow and sheep, and even carefully avoided the hands of the breeder.

   And Lu Li was familiar with these - so was Ampere.

   The close oil lamp allowed Lu Li to observe the forelimbs of "Numa" the size of an adult's arm beside him. But for its huge body, the limbs are small and deformed like a baby.

The    limbs are not enough to support it crawling, unless it has a way of moving that belongs to the mysterious side.

   After feeding, Katrina shuddered at the action of the breeder. He was lying in front of the iron cage, almost sticking his head into the cage, leaning close to the mouth of the Numa catfish, listening to something.

  Lu Li vaguely heard something, but he couldn't tell the difference, unless he was very close, like sticking his head on it like a breeder——

   After dozens of seconds, the breeder got out of the iron cage and looked at Lu Li strangely: "Numa thinks you are delicious."

   Katarina was subconsciously vigilant, and Lu Li also said, "I don't think 'delicious' means friendliness."

   "You should be happy, it means that your pollution is very slight." The breeder said, looking at Katerina again: "Your companions are a little 'ordinary'."

   Ordinary, also represents ordinary, public, neither high nor low.

   So this news is good or bad for Katarina.

   The breeder thought for a while, and said to Lu Li, "You are closer to Numa, it can cover up your delicious smell."

   "It won't be greedy." Katarina didn't want to hear the bad news that Lu Li was eaten.

   "Numa is a good boy." The breeder complained that Katarina should not have such thoughts.

   At this moment, a scolding sounded from far and near from outside the caravan.

   "Fuck fast! The Count of Ghost Town desperately needs this shipment, and we'll have it delivered before the sun goes down—of course I **** know it's Eternal Night, **** Tom, keep your second mouth!"

  The sound-sensitive Numa shook the catfish's head and made a boo-boo-like exhaust sound.

   The breeder had to appease Numa.

"I've heard of this." Katerina whispered to Lu Li at this time, "The Count of Ghost Town is not a real Count. It is rumored that he was a knight from before the Weird Age. 'Now, and then accept the invitation of the ghost church to move to the ghost town..."

   "Okay, let's go out."

   The breeder who comforted Numa said and led Lu Li and Katarina out of the oppressive caravan.

   "Have you been with the convoy?" he asked.

   "Uh... no."

   Katarina has never been alone, and rarely leaves Leviathan, let alone set off with a convoy of luxury.

   "Okay, remember these guidelines." The breeder looked around the fleet workers who were speeding up the transportation, and clearly and quickly stated the guidelines that he had said countless times.

  【You are trying to leave the safe area】

  【You are away from safety and comfort】

  【And maybe you will never come back】

  【If you are sure you want to travel far, you will be waiting for the unknown ahead of you】

  【You will encounter many, and mostly bad things】

  【It will make you grow and make you crazy】

  【Keep an eye on your sanity, don’t let it decrease】

  【Remember——】

  【The more you know, the faster you die】

   Katarina was caught in the memory of the code, as if someone had said that to her a long time ago.

   She quickly broke away from her memory, and Lu Li followed the breeder to a carriage behind the caravan, where they were arranged.

   "Do not leave the carriage after leaving the town, only use fluorite, and never expose the light to the wilderness." The breeder finally reminded. "Our boss has a cursed title, don't worry about getting lost."

   "Cursed title?"

   "It's called 'Survival Instinct'... You should already know that."

   The breeder said meaningfully. As the words fell, an incomprehensible, as if words were like voices, appeared in Lu Li and Katerina's minds.

  【Survival Instinct】

  【Humans live on an island called ignorance. When they decide to set sail, they will travel farther and farther on their respective routes. Maybe going too far will make them forget where they came from. Thankfully, you still remember. Your mind is always remembered where you started from. No matter where you are, you can remember its location, its direction - because only there is safe. 】

  【Your mind will point to the location and direction of the town you left. 】

  【——Hunters often die at the mouth of their prey. Fishermen will end up in the abyss of the Dead Sea. 】
