"Professor Brian, I know you like workbenches. There happens to be one that I eliminated somewhere. If you like it, I can give it to you." The meaning in Brian's eyes was so obvious that Owen couldn't even pretend not to see it.
I can only say it with some helplessness.
Although it was eliminated, the sophistication of this workbench, even if it was far inferior, was still a good thing that he had dreamed of. Therefore, Brian nodded with satisfaction, and then he was in the mood to listen to Owen ask him about the assassination.
Brian's throat was damaged, and Owen asked the Flame Queen to send him a device that would allow him to speak through an external speaker.
Of course, what Owen didn't say was that this thing had the ability to read the surface subconscious. To put it simply, Brian couldn't lie, at least he couldn't hide it from him.
"It was the people from the Church of Flesh who assassinated me and took away the Book of Flesh in my hand." Brian said with a somewhat complicated expression. There was hatred, pity, fear, happiness, and a trace of relief in his eyes.
Owen couldn't help but admire that the other party was really very discerning, but no small eye could hold so much emotion.
But what Brian said next made Owen don't know what to say.
The Empire does not have a dominant sect like the Church of Light, which is common in other worlds. This is a good thing for a heretic like him, who is obviously an outsider. However, the chorus of hundreds of schools of thought also represents a chaotic dance of demons. There are too many chaotic sects in the Empire.
.
The Devil's Head had just finished causing trouble, and the Church of the Flesh came out again. Owen didn't know what to say.
What Brian said next gave Owen an even bigger headache.
But who allowed the assassins of the Church of Flesh to come to Akita Town through the Black Hand, and it was also the information provided by Little Thumb that allowed them to successfully infiltrate the magic school.
The so-called alien gods refer to gods originating from outside the world. Such gods can be strong or weak. The weak ones can barely make a living, while the strong ones are so strong that they are unreasonable.
It's a pity that the traces of this book were leaked out, and people from the Flesh and Blood Church came looking for it. After all, this book is the holy scripture of the Flesh and Blood Church.
Brian accidentally obtained the Book of Flesh and Flesh. If he had not become obsessed with his own research at that time, he might have practiced flesh and blood magic under the temptation of this book.
Little Thumb was originally very wary of the flesh and blood Church's assassins, because the Flesh Church's practice was massacre and blood sacrifice, which was obviously not conducive to the Black Hand's layout in the North. In particular, Akita Town also cost Little Thumb a lot of effort.
"Where is the target now?" Little Thumb asked. A lot of cold sweat suddenly appeared on Harvey's head beside him. He resisted the idea of wiping it off, lowered his head and said quickly.
Because of the Book of Flesh, Brian specifically inquired about the Church of Flesh. At this time, his body was destroyed, and he told Owen everything without any scruples.
I don’t know whether it’s true or not, but it’s really strong, especially its unique flesh-and-blood rituals and magic, which makes the empire helpless, and many attempts to suppress it have failed.
Moreover, it was not easy to get a professor, but the students have not graduated yet, so we can't just let him die and let him use his remaining energy at least.
If the black hand gets this book, it can gain countless benefits just by using it to perform flesh and blood rituals to help people regain their youth or reshape their flesh and blood, so even the little-fingered city has to admit that it is heart-warming.
But Little Thumb was very curious about the purpose of the Flesh Church assassin, so he didn't do anything when the other party purchased the information about Green Shade Town.
Fortunately, the Lord of Flesh is too far away from here, and the connection is not strong. In addition, many years ago, the high priest of the Church of Flesh actually sacrificed the blood of 100,000 people in a city to the Lord of Flesh, which aroused the emperor's anger.
The Church of Flesh and Blood is a very ancient church, and its specific history is unknown. It may be traced back to the beginning of the establishment of the empire, and it believed in an alien god.
In desperation, Irving could only let others show off, and then began to prepare Brian's treatment plan.
It can be said that Little Thumb followed the opponent all the way into Green Shade Town, sneaked into the magic school, assassinated Brian, and took away something.
At this time, Black Hand's station, Little Finger has been staring at the information in front of him for a long time, which is very rare for him who has always been decisive and shrewd.
Brian then told the origin of the Book of Flesh. It was a gift from the Lord of Flesh and Blood when the High Priest of the Flesh Church sacrificed blood to 100,000 people. It can be called an artifact.
As the victim, Owen did not intend to pursue the matter further, but he forgot that he did not have the final say in this world.
With the behavior and madness of the Flesh Church, the Black Hand is definitely not willing to provoke the other party, but the complete Book of Flesh is an artifact. Even if it is broken into pieces, the three books repaired from the fragments are still of extremely high value, especially among the rumors.
The Book of Bones and Flesh, which can reshape flesh and blood, is the key to restoring youth and opening up immortality. I don’t know how many people in the empire want to get this book.
Killing Brian is not the purpose of the Flesh Church, so his life or death is not important. Even if he is saved, the Flesh Church will not specifically target him.
Black Hand's intelligence ability is indeed outstanding. It was obvious that the assassination incident occurred at the magic school not long ago, and he has received quite detailed information here.
Owen was almost depressed. He originally wanted to find an enemy for the territory by making excuses, but he didn't expect that the enemy was too strong. He dared to massacre a city and sacrifice 100,000 people. He couldn't afford to offend him.
Of course, what Brian was holding was not the real Book of Flesh, because the real Book of Flesh was destroyed in the battle with the Imperial Sword Master just after it was completed.
Under the continuous suppression of the Empire over the years, the Flesh Church has become less arrogant than before. Otherwise, this time it would not be a quiet assassination and secretly taking away the Book of Flesh, but a hearty massacre and sacrifice. Only then
This is the favorite method of flesh and blood cultists.
It's just that Black Hand didn't know the other party's purpose before, so he left this matter to Little Thumb.
The Lord of Flesh is a powerful alien god who claims that all flesh and blood in the world comes from him.
However, because the Book of Flesh contains the ultimate secret of flesh and blood, the fragments were collected by interested people and revised into three books, namely the Book of Five Senses, the Book of Blood, and the Book of Flesh and Bones.
"Suspected fragments of the Book of Flesh." Based on Black Hand's intelligence, Little Finger can almost guess what it is. The question now is whether Black Hand wants to get involved in this matter.
Of course, although Black Hand's intelligence capabilities are strong, they are not strong enough to predict the future. Little Thumb's intelligence agents in the North are also not wealthy enough to spread throughout the Hydera family's territory, especially the rather exclusive Green Shade Town.
"My men have lost track of him and are now looking for traces of him."
Little Thumb just nodded, not surprised by the result.
The assassins of the Church of Flesh are not bad in ability. What they lack is the intelligence in the North. Once they succeed, it will be difficult to catch the other party's traces if they want to hide it. After all, the magic of flesh and blood can turn people into men, women, old and young.
, anyone around you may be an assassin of the Church of Flesh, even a dog at home.
There were not many elite Black Hand personnel in Akita Town, so it was normal for him to be lost. Little Thumb did not blame him, but asked Harvey to send him information on where he disappeared.
