Under Emlyn's dumbfounded and confused gaze, the frightened Doctor Allen was carried by Klein and Yager into a carriage and sent to the nearby St. Samuel's Cathedral. He believed that the Nighthawks there would take good care of him.
of.
Then, the two came to the Green Cemetery in Backlund.
This is a good name.
It would be great if Green could really be buried inside.
Standing in front of a birch tree with peeling bark, Yager sighed silently.
It's cloudy in Backlund today, which may confirm Dr. Allen's ominous premonition. The gray stone monuments in Green Cemetery spread into the distant forest, making the atmosphere even more gloomy.
Because it was a working day, there were very few people even coming to lay flowers.
At the edge of the woods, he and Klein observed a circle around the birch tree.
"Will Asceptin is not here." Klein pursed his lips and scanned, "I have seen his photos in the Hillston area."
"Logically speaking, he did leave with his family. Their signatures are left at the entry and exit checkpoint in the suburb of Backlund."
Yager on the other side nodded in agreement: "Yes. I didn't find any special traces either."
“It’s really difficult to handle”
They bowed their heads and were silent for a while.
"Has the land here been renovated?" Looking at it, the black-haired young man suddenly frowned.
He gently raised his left leg and found that the custom-made deerskin boots were strangely stained with a layer of mud, and his right foot was half sunk into the ground.
The soil below is not compact.
There are no traces of weeds around.
This is actually particularly abnormal for an inaccessible forest.
Moreover, there is still a faint familiar smell in the air
"You're right." Klein, who also discovered the problem, quickly raised his feet and looked at his dirty leather shoes with distress.
My two pounds six soles!
"It seems that only the soil under this tree shows signs of being turned over. There must be something buried underneath."
"Probably." As an 'experienced' detective, Mr. Moriarty keenly analyzed the source of the odor, "Is it rancid?!"
The items buried underneath were very shallow. Almost as soon as the two of them moved, the covering soil was taken away, revealing a dark white corner below.
Yager finally knew why he was familiar with it.
As the ground was pushed open with branches, a large hollow emerged behind the soft soil. At the bottom, there was a human body with twisted limbs!
The mouth of the corpse was opened at a terrifying angle, and the lower jaw was dislocated.
Maggots kept going in and out of the empty eye sockets, seeming to tell the other person's final despair.
This is
Will Asceptin?
wrong--
"Talim?!"
Yager and Klein exclaimed in surprise in unison.
He was the royal equestrian coach who helped Triss escape from Edsac Manor. He was also a member of the Cragg Club.
Why not Will Asceptin? If it wasn't Will's body, why was it communicated to Dr. Allen?
Yager looked at the corpse hesitantly, with a big question mark above his head.
Is this the person the mercury snake is telling people to ‘run away’?!
Not likely.
The gloomy tree shadows drooped, covering the few bright lights.
Things have become elusive.
From a physical point of view, the cause of death of this corpse should be blood loss caused by a huge penetrating wound on the chest. Traces of mud and blood can be seen everywhere in the finger joints and mouth.
But it was not Talim who said goodbye this morning, but the witch Triss.
She said she ditched Talim in Hillstown.
She did not lie, this was confirmed by the vision.
Moreover, there were no extraordinary traces on the corpse, not even the high-sequence aura that Dr. Allen had on him before, and it had nothing to do with Will Auceptin who attracted them here.
Without involving the extraordinary, the space that Yager can operate is very limited.
"Shall we go to the Church of Storms to call the police?" Klein came to the same conclusion after observing for dozens of seconds. "This seems to have nothing to do with the mystery. It is an ordinary person committing a crime."
However, the possibility of the mercury snake's influence cannot be ruled out.
The poor fortune teller, who did not have convenient spiritual vision, thought about it and put the pocket watch for fortune telling in his pocket with his right hand, preparing to go above the gray fog to take a look later.
"Okay." Yager nodded solemnly.
The two of them waved away the flies that were trying to land around them and immediately left the place. After the body was dug out, the stench of decay almost solidified.
They walked quickly out of the forest.
A handsome young man walked towards me.
Under the cloudy sky, the young man's facial features are soft, and his gentle expression contains alienation and indifference that cannot be ignored. His long silver hair reaches down to his vest.
The weirdest thing is that on this New Year's Eve in Backlund, he was still wearing only a thin linen robe and even walked barefoot in the cemetery.
His unique attire attracted the tombkeepers from afar to look at him frequently.
He passed by the two of them.
It looks like high sequence.
This was the first thought that came to Klein's mind.
To be honest, the temperament of this strange young man seems to fit the impression given by the name 'Mercury Snake' to others.
But he's nothing like the friendly Will Asceptin in Nightmare.
Next to him, Yager also frowned and subconsciously looked back at the stranger who was acting strangely.
The two of them looked at each other.
The next second, the other party stayed where he was.
The young man with long silver hair looked at the open hole over there from a distance, his almost white eyes blinked blankly, and then he moved slowly.
Followed Yager.
"?"
A certain tentacle monster immediately stopped.
Following his movements, the strange young man also stopped in the middle of the lawn, tilted his head and looked at him.
The situation in the cemetery was particularly strange for a while.
?
What is this doing?
Yager looked at the other person silently and took another step back suspiciously.
The silver-haired man opposite followed closely and took a step closer.
???
He looked suspicious of life.
"Why are you following us?" He couldn't help but ask, his left hand slowly reaching behind his back and touching the handle of the ferocious weapon at his waist.
Obviously, this is also an angel.
The body of the silver-haired young man is wrapped with an elusive, incomprehensible aura of fate, which is almost exactly the same as the thread on Dr. Allen's body!
The only difference is that this is another sequence one of the same pathway.
Did he stab the snake's nest?!
Klein quietly moved behind Mr. Bishop's thin back again and felt a strong sense of security.
"Ourolius."
The silver-haired young man suddenly spoke, his voice empty and erratic.
Instead of answering the question, he gave a name that seemed to refer to himself.
"Fate allowed this encounter."
"The glory of the Lord will come here, and the past will be restored."
This angel seemed to be very slow. Not only did he answer questions incorrectly, but he was also not very fluent in Loen.
Yager listened to his answer with confusion.
He quickly discovered the key point——
'host'.
Why is this title so familiar?
It seems to often appear in the mouth of an angel who always makes people angry, likes to fight, and sings praises to evil gods every day.
Are you also a believer in the true Creator?!
"Do you know Medici?"
Ourolius opened his empty silver eyes and stood silently on the spot for a few seconds, long enough to make people wonder if he had died.
After that, he replied slowly and stuck: "Yes. He is also the Lamb of the Lord."
The corners of Yager's mouth immediately drooped, his expression unkind.
It is said that Amon is a descendant of the ancient sun god. These two are like unyielding believers after the death of the sun god. They are the loyal fighting power of the true creator.
I can't live this day!
Zhenzao, you’re going to have a team building next to my house, right?!
