The door swung open directly inward, making a tooth-breaking friction sound.
"No one is here?"
Cheng An raised his eyebrows and did not go in directly. Instead, he stood cautiously at the door and looked around.
Through the street lights outside, you can see that the inside is made of common church decorations:
Several rows of benches and a podium.
The emblem of the Ares Cult is hung on the wall at the front, but there is no statue of the god.
There was a figure, kneeling and sitting in front of the church's pulpit, with his head lowered, as if he was praying to God.
"Well, it is understandable that you are not allowed to interrupt during prayer to answer any calls.
"But why are you doing it in such a dark light? There is a problem."
Cheng An narrowed his eyes and gave up the idea of entering.
He stepped back, ran to Toris and Luoluo, and reported the situation: "You two ladies, something is wrong inside!"
In the federation, employees usually address their employer as Mr., Mrs., Ms.
But if the other party is an obviously unmarried woman, there is no harm in calling her Miss.
"Is there any problem?" Luoluo asked.
Cheng An explained: "There is a person praying in the church, but he does not turn on the lights. I suspect that he may have been killed by a demon!"
"Let me see!"
The girl with twin tails never knows how to write the word fear.
She directly raised her leg and kicked the two iron doors away, causing them to crash into the house.
Cheng An's eyes flinched. This strange power seemed to be not much different from his own in reality.
Therefore, this little girl must be a newbie in terms of strength, right?
He didn't think much and hid behind Toris without moving an inch.
The silver-haired girl glanced sideways at him and frowned slightly, but said nothing more and asked the two guards to follow Luo Luo into the church.
She herself stood at the door, vaguely blocking the road.
"Smell... there is a cursed smell here."
Luoluo blew his nose, rushed behind the praying figure, and patted the man's shoulder hard:
"Hey, get up and talk! Is it you who sent the telegram asking for help? What happened here?"
However, there was no answer.
After being slapped like this, the man's head started to shake obviously.
Then, like an unstable watermelon, it fell forward.
boom!
It fell to the ground and rolled continuously, revealing an expressionless face of an old man.
No blood spilled out from the broken neck, but instead there were bursts of 'chichi' sounds.
Then, the neck began to swell obviously, and with a pop, a mouse as big as a beer bottle came out!
Its eyes were glowing red, and its body was covered with internal tissue fluid. It screamed strangely and pounced on Luo Luo, who had no time to react.
"Miss!"
"Watch out!"
The two guards were careless and rushed forward, but they were unable to stop the big rat from jumping into the girl's face.
Seeing that he was about to be injured, Luo Luo defied gravity, slightly bent his legs, and immediately raised himself high.
Her height is less than 1.4 meters, but the height of this jump is probably more than two meters, almost as if she is flying!
Brush! One foot stepped on the mouse's back.
Luoluo's body suddenly accelerated, as if he had been able to fall freely for several seconds, and he was on the floor in an instant.
"boom!"
There was a loud noise, and the floor centered around her was suddenly trampled into a huge depression, and spreading cracks quickly appeared around it.
The mouse, on the other hand, was crushed into a lake of blood under such a foot.
"I don't think I can do this jump and step!" Cheng An silently made a comparison in his mind.
Of course, it is compared with his current body.
If it were the other side's body, it would probably be trampled to death by the opponent's kick, which would be no better than the fate of that mouse.
Toris then walked into the church, glanced at the scene and said: "A hairy infected mutant, the strength is less than the first level. As for the body, this should be that of the priest... huh? No!"
She suddenly lowered her body, reached out and groped for a while on the old priest's body, then suddenly raised her head to look at Cheng An, and said solemnly:
"Are you sure your information is accurate? This priest is a junior priest?"
Is there any problem?
Cheng An's heart tightened and he considered: "I'm sure there is an old junior priest here and two servants of God who assist him, but I'm not sure whether that priest is the person on the ground."
"knew."
Toris stood up.
"Sword...Sister Toris, is there any problem?" Lolo asked.
"There is no divine blood in this corpse. There are two possibilities.
"Either he was not the priest, but just a villager nearby who happened to come to worship and died in the church.
"But if he is a priest, it means that the divine blood in his body has been taken away."
Toris said to Luo Luo with an uneasy expression: "It seems that your trial mission has doubled in difficulty. It is very likely that there is not a devil's cave here, but a blasphemer!"
"What is a blasphemer?" Cheng An couldn't help but asked presumptuously.
Toris glanced at him, obviously unhappy, and did not answer.
However, the little Loli Luoluo wiped her mouth and explained a few words:
"Normally speaking, for us in the divine blood path, the only extraordinary way is to undergo divine enlightenment, gain God's care, and grant you divine blood.
"In this way, you can become a priest.
"But there are a very small number of people who, if they don't get God's attention, will start to use their twisted ideas to plunder divine blood from other priests!"
"There's no need to explain so much to him." Toris interrupted.
She glanced at Cheng An's eyes with a strong desire for knowledge, and said calmly:
"All blasphemers will face endless pursuit by the church. I hope you do your job well and don't have any evil intentions."
"Miss, I will definitely choose to take the right path." Cheng An quickly expressed his stance.
"It better be."
"Sister Toris, he is so handsome, he wouldn't do this!" Luoluo argued.
"Ah."
Toris didn't bother to argue with the ignorant girl.
Know people, know faces, but don’t know hearts.
She looked around and said slowly: "The priest died not more than a day ago. Let's go to the village to find out if there have been any suspicious outsiders recently. The blasphemer is probably still here!"
The two guards lowered their heads and said: "As you command, miss!"
The group of people quickly went down the mountain and went from house to house to inquire about the situation.
However, the residents here said they had not seen any outsiders.
But accidental deaths have happened several times.
First, a week ago, the daughter of Master Wang, who was barbering at the entrance of the village and could lift a hundred pounds of manure, disappeared.
Master Wang took his apprentice Liangliang and went into the mountains to look for him, but he never came back.
After that, no one dared to look for her, including Master Wang's pretty wife who was more than ten years younger than him.
The matter was reported to the priest at the church, but nothing more happened.
Inquiring to no avail.
Cheng An didn't speak and followed quietly, but he thought of one thing.
He remembered that he had just logged into the Masonic Forum. At that time, walking had not replaced the host identity. He had seen a post in the forum with the title:
[Exploring the abandoned mine, my brother mutated on the spot and cured my mental internal friction! 】
Brother...there is a pair of servant brothers here.
Mutation... There are products of pollution from the hairy demon species here.
Abandoned mine... there happens to be a mine here!
These fragments of information were quickly connected into a clear thread, taking root in Cheng An's mind into a conjecture.
I'm afraid this big brother is in bad luck!
Luoluo blinked and asked, "Sister Toris, if I can't find the Demon's Cave, will I have to find another place for my trial?"
"Well, it will be difficult to find the magic cave. We have too few manpower and it is impossible to cast a net and search for carpets."
Toris' pretty face was cold, and it was obvious that she was in a bad mood.
In fact, she had more things on her mind than Luoluo. Not finding the Devil's Cave was a trivial matter. A blasphemer might appear here, which was a big deal.
We can only go back to the city to ask for support and send a large force to clean up.
Seeing that she was silent, Cheng An took the opportunity to intervene: "I know there is a very secret place here!"
"Um?"
"Um?"
Toris and Luoluo looked at him doubtfully.
"Oh, this is a rumor left by my great-grandfather's generation. When they were mining here, there was a mine where people died and it was sealed. They secretly put some valuable gold into the mine.
, I want to take it away after the labor is over,
"Unfortunately, until the end, they failed to achieve their wish."
Cheng An combined the content he had seen and made up a story that was very consistent with the character of the "mining slave".
"Do you know the location?" Toris asked.
Cheng An pointed to the mountain and said: "It's over there at the mine. I don't know which one it is, so I can only explore it!"
"Walk."
