"Eyes, my eyes!" the older night watchman shouted in panic, his hands waving around, trying to catch something.
"What's wrong? Josh!" Seeing this, the companions on the side quickly stepped forward to hold the night watchman's hand.
"My eyes, my eyes are invisible!" The elderly man who was supported by his companion stabilized his mood slightly, opened his eyes wide and looked around, then his face was full of panic and fear, and he grabbed his companion's arm with force.
, said: "Come on, let's get out of here!"
The young night watchman, who had never seen his companions so panicked before, didn't understand what happened just now, but he still instinctively obeyed his companions' suggestions, supported him with all his strength, and quickly returned to the original route.
Because there was one person who couldn't see anything, the time it took to walk back was more than twice as long as the tracking time, and the two of them walked in a very awkward manner. When they arrived at the entrance of Bucket Town, the two of them looked more like two people.
They were such refugees that when the two of them entered the town, no one recognized them as the heroes who had just killed the two monsters.
At the suggestion of the elder, the two did not return to the hotel where they lived. Instead, they went to a cabin they rented secretly after coming to the town, where they also stored some weapons that were not convenient for the hotel.
After the two returned to the hut, under the instructions of the elder, the young night watchman quickly took out several holy badges blessed by the Bishop of the King of the Hill and possessing real divine power from the secret storage box in the hut, and then put them into the hut.
They hung them on the doors and windows respectively, then took out two military heavy crossbows, filled the arrows with special medicine into the ammunition slots of the crossbows, took one each, and sat in a relatively safe place in the room.
Beside the stone wall.
At this time, the emotions of the two of them stabilized, and the older man told his younger companion what he had just experienced.
After hearing this, the young night watchman said with a surprised look on his face: "You mean that after you used the residual light potion, you just looked at the person who killed the family member and became blind. How is this possible?"
"Of course it's possible." The elder night watchman shook his head and said, "Don't forget that almost all church books have written a sentence, that is, He is invisible, unheard, unknowable, and untouchable."
"God?" The young night watchman looked at his colleagues in surprise, as if looking at a madman, and couldn't help but retort: ​​"Are you crazy? You actually think that what you see is a god? Although I don't know why this world
Chaos suddenly broke out, but it can't be so absurd. You should know very well that it is not an easy thing for gods to appear."
"Of course I know it very well," the elder didn't like his companion's tone, snorted coldly, and then added: "I didn't say he was a god. Don't forget what the flaw of the afterglow potion is and why it was distributed.
Later, we will be told that there are several situations in which the medicine cannot be used, the first of which is that it cannot be used in various church facilities and institutions, nor can it be used to visit church clergy."
The young night watchman thought about it for a moment, and soon remembered the shortcomings of the afterglow potion. With a look of surprise on his face, he said: "You mean the person you saw has the power of the gods?"
The older man nodded.
"Is he from the Church of the King of the Hill?" the young night watchman asked again.
"Impossible." The elder shook his head and said: "The energy and manpower of the Church of the King of the Hill have all been drawn by the war in the kingdom. There is no manpower to deal with these monsters of the clan. How else can we give up the power of those people in the church?"
How can you cooperate with our night watchmen and even come up with such good things for us to use?"
"Then, you mean the evil god?" the young night watchman said nervously.
"It may be another descendant of the evil god, or it may be a high-level cultist." The elder nodded and said: "No matter who it is, it is not a good thing for us. I hope he just came here accidentally, not
Target us, otherwise..."
When the words came to an end, the elder said nothing more and just clenched the heavy machine crossbow in his hand. The young night watchman also knew what he meant, and his face was a little ugly. He sat quietly and used several possible methods.
The potions and weapons are placed where you can easily pick them up.
Just when the two night watchmen were terrified because of an accident, Leo, the accident maker, had already returned to his carriage tent.
At this moment, everyone in the camp has been attracted by what happened in Bucket Town. Many people ran to the town to find out the news. People in the camp also lost sleep because of the news.
They were chatting and discussing around the campfire in the center of the camp, but the main content of their conversation was not the monsters in the town, but the scene they saw on the top of the snow mountain last night. Although a day had passed, the caravan was still full of people.
The excitement still hasn't diminished by half.
Because everyone's attention was directed towards Bucket Town, no one noticed Leo coming back from the other direction. Only Sanz, who was also woken up, saw Leo returning to the camp from outside.
Although Leo had used spiritual energy to clean up the blood stuck to his body on the way back, the smell of blood was still very strong. Sanz, who was a sand thief, was particularly sensitive to the smell of blood, and soon Leo was
The bloody smell on his body is connected with the movement in Tongzhen just now.
After returning to the tent, Leo carefully recalled the process of dissecting the family member and sorted out the relevant information obtained.
He discovered that although these Familia seemed very powerful from the outside, in fact, their internal bones, muscles, and even key organs such as visceral activity had not obtained the mutations that matched their bodies. This was why he originally planned to use
The psychic impact that stunned this Familia directly blew the opponent's head off. This situation was absolutely impossible to happen to the Familia he had encountered before.
In addition to the problems with the body itself, the most important point is that these dependents do not have corresponding divine marks on their bodies.
Any kind of Familia, whether infected by divine power or due to bloodline, has the mark of the god it belongs to. However, the Familia who was accidentally killed by Leo just now did not have the mark of the god on his body, which also made him feel confused.
I thought of those night watchmen who were transformed by the cells of alien gods, or those humans who have special powers in their blood like witches.
Leo was a little confused about the origin of this family member, so he took out the king and queen and tried to use Professor Sylvia's method to activate the secret ability on it.
At the moment when the hidden power was inspired, the surrounding scene immediately changed from a dark tent to a sunny garden, and then countless light spots suddenly appeared in the air, and then quickly rotated, forming a
Sylvia's look.
"Have you left Savile Kingdom?" Sylvia asked anxiously with a smile on her face after seeing Leo.
Leo nodded and said: "I have arrived at Bucket Town now. I should arrive at Kugang City in two days. By then, I should be able to take the train..."
"It's impossible to make a train!" Sylvia suddenly interrupted Leo and said: "I don't know why, but all the machinery has broken down recently, including the steam train, and there have been six or seven steam train accidents.
The trains lost control and collided. Now, whether it is the area controlled by the government forces or the rebel army, the trains have been stopped. Until the cause is found out, except for a few military transport steam trains, other steam trains
All operations will be suspended.”
"This is because the energy efficiency of the parts has increased." Leo did not hide his discovery from Sylvia, but directly informed Sylvia.
"Energy efficiency of parts?" Sylvia didn't understand for a while and was stunned.
Leo explained it carefully again, and Sylvia's face was filled with shock. It was hard for her to imagine that an ordinary crossbow with more than a dozen parts could cause fatal damage to a member of the family.
She really couldn't believe it.
"I have something to ask you." After Leo finished explaining, he asked directly: "Do all the dependents have the marks of their gods?"
"Of course, the reason why the Familia exists is entirely because of the gods. Just like the lambs of the gods, they must have the mark of the gods." Sylvia responded with great certainty, and then asked: "Did you meet someone who didn't?
A family with the mark of the gods?"
Leo nodded, and then told Sylvia about the family member he encountered.
Sylvia was stunned for a while, but she didn't think that Leo was lying or making a mistake. She thought carefully for a while and said, "Maybe I know what they are?"
"What is it?" Leo asked.
"The Lost One." Sylvia said in a deep voice.
"Lost? This word is so familiar?" Leo frowned, recalled for a moment, and suddenly thought of the origin of this word, and said: "The chaos of the lost."
"Yes, that's the Lost One in the Rebellion of the Lost." Sylvia nodded, her expression became a lot more serious, and then she said in a deep voice: "Your news is very important, I'm going to the King of the Hill
Go to the church and tell the church leaders this news, so as to avoid the second chaos of the lost ones from breaking out."
After saying that, she did not exchange greetings with Leo about other things, and directly closed the practice with Leo. Leo also exited the garland world and returned to the carriage.
Although Leo was a little surprised by the answer of the Lost One, he was not as nervous and serious as Sylvia.
For ordinary people, the Rebellion of the Lost is something that only exists in the world, but for people in the dark world, especially for the church, the Rebellion of the Lost is not a fantasy, but something that actually happened.
Fact, and this incident almost destroyed the entire world.
The Rebellion of the Lost occurred not long ago, more than two hundred years ago. At that time, various churches had noticed that their connection with the gods had begun to weaken, and the churches were losing the protection of the gods. The most obvious point was that they had divine power.
The number of magical clergy is rapidly decreasing.
In order to maintain its dominant position in the dark world, the church secretly cooperated with the medical school of the time and wanted to use some methods that have not been disclosed to date to create some clergy who can use divine power and magic without receiving blessings from the gods.
.
Obviously this kind of thing is blasphemous, so the church placed the testing site on a small island. Each participating church sent two meritorious bishops to take charge of things. Meritous bishops are special beings in the church. They are not
Like other clergy, they received blessings from the gods and received divine power and magic, but they became bishops by virtue of some other merits, so their connection with the gods was not deep.
At that time, the medical school did not have the same status as it does now. After receiving the invitation from the Orthodox Church, the dean directly participated in this matter with his students.
The entire experimental record was destroyed after the Rebellion of the Lost. All those involved in the matter, including the top leaders of various churches, either resigned or simply silenced themselves. This was another heavy blow to the church that had already begun to decline.
of blow.
Leo was not very clear about the details of the Rebellion of the Lost. He only saw some records of the Tower Wizard from the book on the Wizard Tower of Death Valley. The Tower Wizard at that time used four extreme natural disasters to describe the chaos of the Lost.
chaos, and mentioned that the underground church was also involved in this matter.
However, the wizard of the tower who wrote these contents seemed to have concerns about this matter, so not only did he not leave his name in the book, but he did not even write down the details of the Rebellion of the Lost, the location of its occurrence, etc.
Come down.
Because the content of this paragraph was vague and very short, Leo did not take it seriously. If Sylvia hadn't reminded him, he would never have remembered the relevant content.
Looking back now, coupled with Sylvia's performance, he is also a little curious about this chaos of the lost, but if the lost is really the family he just solved, then this kind of lost has no
There is nothing to worry about, a group of ordinary soldiers with slightly more powerful crossbows can also deal with him.
What's more, as the world begins to mutate and the gods will gradually return, the church that the reunited gods will focus on will become stronger again, and it should not be difficult to deal with the lost.
Thinking of this, Leo temporarily put the matter of the Lost One behind him, dismantled the previous crossbow, and studied it again to see if it could be modified.
The appearance of monsters in the town broke the peace of Barrel Town. Everyone no longer believed that Barrel Town was absolutely safe as before, but they did not leave because other places outside Barrel Town were less safe than Barrel Town.
It could be worse.
So, several merchants in Wood Tong Town, the leaders elected by the local people, the mayor of the town and other local people with status and reputation gathered together and discussed it all night. It was not until early the next morning that they
Announce to the people that an army will be formed to defend the town.
