Chapter 506 Isn’t this style wrong? ?


    Arkham City.


    Mark was not familiar with this city, but he successfully found his target by relying on the advertisement address in the newspaper.


    No. 666 Fool’s Street……


    ?Hold the newspaper in his hand and look at the store in front of him, Mark frowned. Judging from the exterior decoration, this shop is very quaint, and can even be said to be quite simple. On the signboard of the shop, there is only the word "Inquisition", and then there is the symbol of a warhammer and a skull.


    Same as the mark on the back of his hand.


    Thinking of this, Mark lowered his head again, looked at the mark on the back of his hand, and then looked at the pattern on the shop in front of him.


    Exactly the same.


    What exactly is going on?


    To be frank, Mark, holding the newspaper and standing on the street, felt like his brain was like mush.


    No matter what, it’s coming, let’s go in first!


    ?Thinking of this, Mark gritted his teeth, put the newspaper back into his pocket, and then stretched out his hand to push open the store door.


    “Jingle bell.”


    With the clear ringing of the doorbell, the door opened, and then Mark stepped into the weird shop in front of him.


    ??When Mark walked into the store and saw the layout clearly, he couldn''t help but be stunned.


    After making up his mind to avenge his wife and eliminate the group of cultists, Mark also went to find many wizards and the like. In his impression, those guys were always hidden in dark alleys, and they were doing things all over the room. It''s dim and mysterious, full of musty ancient books and disgusting weird props...


    However, Mark’s first impression here was completely different from those voodoo shops before. Not only did it have bright and clean windows, it looked very neat, and it even looked like... what brand store? ? ?


    That’s right.


    What Mark saw in front of him was a very neat store. In the center of the store was a glass cabinet containing a variety of jewelry, including necklaces, rings, and bracelets. On the shelves beside the wall, there are various weapons. Including hammers, machetes, daggers, and even shields.


    On the other side, there are things that look like decorations...


    In this way, the entire store is divided into three parts, and of course, there are special classification labels.


    On the wall full of weapons, there is a sign saying "Exorcism", on the outside of the glass cabinet with decorations in the middle, there is a sign saying "Exorcism", and on the cabinets with decorations next to it, there is a sign "Suppressing the House". sign.


    …………What is this thing? ? ?


    Looking at the store in front of him, Mark looked confused.


    ?For a moment, he felt that he had gone to the wrong place... Just when Mark was hesitating to go out, a voice sounded.


    “Ah, welcome to the Tribunal, my guest, what do you need?”


    Hearing this clear and pleasant voice, Mark raised his head and looked in the direction of the counter. However, there was not a mysterious old witch, nor a voodoo master who tortured himself to look like a human being, but a A very beautiful and lovely girl, she was smiling and looking at Mark curiously.


    “Excuse me, when you come to the Inquisition, do you want to buy or sell items?”


    “For sale?”


    Hearing what the girl said, Mark frowned and walked to the counter, while the girl nodded.


    "Yes, if there is anything in your hand that troubles you, you can sell it to our Tribunal. Of course, if you need anything, you can also buy items from our Tribunal to relieve your troubles."


    “What do you mean???”


    ?Mark reached out his hand in confusion and pointed at the cabinets behind him, while the girl nodded.


    "Yes, if there are evil spirits or demons at work in your home, I recommend you to buy home decorations. And if you are troubled by evil spirits and want to expel them or stay away from them, you can choose exorcism accessories. "


    “What about slaying demons?”


    Hearing this, Mark stared into the girl''s eyes and asked, but the girl was stunned for a moment, and then continued.


    “Of course, if you want to fight against demons, you can also choose demon-killing weapons.”


    …………”


    So simple? ?


    Hearing the girl''s answer, Mark frowned. He had also sought similar help from other wizards, but they either said they did not have such a method, or told Mark that this was not something that ordinary people could control. It was nowhere like here. Just put it out and clearly mark the price and start selling? ?


    “Aren’t there any requirements and risks?”


    "Of course, if you choose to fight against demons, it is a risk in itself. We can only provide you with a certain degree of assistance to help you not be affected by evil and filth, but other than that, you have to rely on your own strength. ”


    Mark was not surprised by the girl''s words. This was normal. As a soldier, he had to rely on his own ability when shooting, rather than letting the gun in his hand fire automatically. It''s just that the other party actually told the truth, which somewhat surprised Mark. It seems that this "tribunal" is really not the same style and routine as those other coquettish **** who pretend to be gods and ghosts.


    By the way, let’s talk about this... “So, do you have any guns here?”


    “Sorry, sir, our store does not sell any long-range weapons, including bows and arrows.”


    ?This was also Duanmuhuai''s decision. After all, selling guns requires a license, and he was too lazy to go to such trouble. In fact, the business license of the store in front of me is antiques and handicrafts. And those weapons and accessories that can "exorcise evil", "house control", and "eliminate demons" can be sold in the name of handicrafts. After all, this is not illegal, right?


    But guns are another story.


    ?Of course, the most important reason besides this is that, in Duanmuhuai''s view, only close combat is the most sacred, bravest, and most loyal way of fighting. Do you want to fight a demon, instead of throwing a hammer at it, but instead standing back and shooting like a titanium man?


    This itself is not loyal!


    Besides, Duanmuhuai''s shooting skills are so bad... Forget it, I won''t talk about it anymore, I will shed tears if I talk about it.


    “Of course, if you have any needs or services, you can go to the detective office on the second floor for help.”


    ??? Lorena naturally had to advertise for her boss.


    To be honest, if this mark hadn''t appeared on the back of his hand, and if he hadn''t had nightmares since then, Mark would have suspected that there was something wrong with this place.


    ??After all, this is not a bit of a show-off, and it doesn’t conform to my own ideas at all. Generally speaking, shouldn''t this kind of thing be taken to the back and then some treasured treasure or something should be taken out? Why are you so calm? ?


    For Lorena, she is indeed quite calm. After all, she has done a lot of similar things in the Holy City and has long been accustomed to work. Naturally, he won''t be like those magic sticks in this world, who talk so much that they don''t know why they are crazy.


    But Mark is not used to it.


    ?According to his experience, the general kind of magic stick goddess talks like a riddle. She''s nothing like this lady, she''s just like some kind of customer service, she answers whatever you ask her. Even if Mark asked her about the meaning of the mark of the Tribunal, she made it clear that pure human skulls are a symbol of human purity, and those degenerates who associate with demons have long lost their human purity, and their skulls have also lost their purity. Nature has mutated. The skull therefore represents the sanctity and purity of humanity…


    Hey guys, if you don’t know better, you might think this is a museum explaining it.


    ?Of course, the risks must also be made clear.


    "If you choose to use the power of the Tribunal, you will be regarded as a believer of the Tribunal. After your death, your soul will go to the Tribunal to serve the Tribunal."


    That’s right, what needs to be said must still be said.


    But after hearing Lorena''s explanation, Mark frowned.


    You are so serious... Is there really such a place as the afterlife?


    “So, I want to meet the dead person, is that okay?”


    "this………"


    Facing Mark’s request, Lorena frowned.


    “Sorry, our store does not provide this service.”


    “Okay, I get it.”


    ?Hearing Lorena''s answer, Mark nodded, and then he began to choose his own products.


    Having had so many interactions with cultists, Mark also has some understanding of their methods. He knows that the most terrifying thing about this group of cultists is that they can summon some monsters from other worlds through some cult rituals. These monsters cannot be defeated simply by relying on firearms.


    ?Hence, choosing weapons has become his top priority.


    So after thinking for a long time, Mark chose a dagger, and then took a shovel.


    That''s right, a shovel.


    In addition to commonly used melee weapons such as long swords, daggers, war hammers, and shields, Duanmuhuai has also specially prepared a lot of folk hardware items, including logging axes and shovels, considering the civilization of modern society. , pickaxes and the like are densely hung on the wall. People who don’t know it think this is some kind of hardware store!


    ??This can be regarded as a heart-warming service from Duanmu Huai. After all, he also knows that those investigators are running around and they will definitely need to dig holes and climb trees. What about the shovel? Can''t you kill someone with a shovel?


    As for why Duanmu Huai is not made into a military-like multi-function that integrates various functions... I''m kidding, he doesn''t want to make money?


    You can make two pieces of money, why should you make one?


    Mark is selecting products here, and his mood is equally weird. He is joking, he wants to slay demons. What is the process like selecting products in a supermarket?


    ?Are these things really useful?


    Fortunately, these items themselves were not expensive. In the end, Mark picked out a shovel, a dagger, a ring and a bracelet, and then paid the bill...


    ?Of course, Lorena still has to work hard to advertise for her boss.


    “If you have any needs, you are welcome to go to the office and contact our boss.”


    …………I will consider it.”


    ?Looking at the business card handed over by Lorena, Mark hesitated and reached out to take it. But in fact, he had no intention of asking anyone for help. After all, Mark also knew very well that although those cultists were indeed hateful, in a society governed by the rule of law, his act of revenge was, to put it bluntly, murder. Naturally, the less people knew about this kind of thing, the better.


    ?So after packing up a bunch of things, Mark turned around and left the store.


    "Why………"


    Seeing this scene, Lorena also sighed helplessly.


    She has tried her best to attract customers for Duanmuhuai.


    What a pity......
