Originally, it was just a simple consolation ceremony that Gallo could complete with a snap of his fingers. However, after learning the posture from Mitherland, he became extra serious and cautious about this matter.
He first took a mop from the side, and while waving it, he kept spinning it around the room, and from time to time it was fixed in various shapes.
It was the first time for the police officers nearby to see Gallo perform such a ceremony, and they couldn't help but stop what they were doing for a while and gathered around to watch.
"What Pastor Gallo dances is a bit like those barbarian war dances?"
"It feels very powerful, like blessing the warriors who are about to go to the front line!"
"Uh... But isn't this a consolation ceremony?"
Undine looked at Gallo's performance and thought he was fooling around. He quickly went up and strangled his neck, pressed his chest against his back, and said fiercely:
"What are you talking about again?"
"Hurry up, everyone is still waiting to eat!"
"But...this...I..."
Gallo wanted to defend himself, but Undine was too fierce and the words he spoke were too threatening, so he had no choice but to snap his fingers and start the ceremony directly.
Then I saw feathers and petals transformed by light emerging one by one, auspicious clouds and palaces also appeared on the ceiling, and a piece of music that Undine had never heard floated from it.
"This is your excuse for breaking up..."
Undine was a little dumbfounded for a moment. She didn't expect Gallo to have such gorgeous magic...
The arm holding his neck could not help but relax a little, and it looked like an intimate hug. He also forgot to separate from Gallo and asked softly:
"This song is really nice, but what do the lyrics mean?"
"I don't know, maybe it's some kind of divine song?"
Gallo replied, trying to struggle again.
Only then did Undine realize that the two were still in close contact. She quickly let go of her hand, took two steps back, and explained in a panic:
"Ahem, I...I'm just a little surprised. Don't get me wrong!"
Then he said again:
"Everyone, hurry up and finish the work at hand and call it a night!"
In this way, after Gallo had lunch with the Sheriff, he was sent back to the church by Undine.
"Goodbye, Lieutenant Undine, come here often when you have time~"
Gallo took the newly earned 10 silver coins and said goodbye to Undine with satisfaction.
"Forget it, if I do it once, it means someone will die..."
Undine waved her hands angrily.
But when Gallo turned back and walked towards the church, she looked at his back and couldn't help but whisper softly:
"Unknowingly, you have become more powerful..."
When Gallo returned to the church, he found the old bishop who was still feeding the cat and told him about the cultists pretending to be him.
After hearing this, the old bishop asked in surprise:
"Forget it if you are an unbeliever or a shallow believer. How dare these cultists pretend to be you?"
"Does this have any impact?"
Gallo asked very puzzledly.
"You are a favored one who is deeply loved by the goddess..."
"According to this, wouldn't the goddess send down divine punishment?"
"How is it possible? It's not like you don't know our goddess, how can there be any divine punishment?"
"Then what do you say about this?"
Gallo finally asked helplessly.
"hehe..."
The old bishop smiled mysteriously and forcibly changed the topic:
"Instead of thinking about this, why not think about what these cultists want to do?"
"Yes, it's very suspicious here. Why would they suddenly kill innocent people indiscriminately?"
Gallo asked very puzzledly.
Even if this group of cults is a real cult and not a group of rural cults, in a place like the City of Innocence, where orthodox religions are particularly strong, they still have to be secretive and low-key. As a result, such a big case suddenly happened. This is not asking for trouble.
?
"Those people may not be innocent, right? According to what you said, the tax collector has something to do with the cult..."
The old bishop continued:
"Other victims are also likely to be related to the cult..."
"They must be plotting something big. Your sudden appearance disrupted their plans, and they were afraid of being followed and ruining the overall situation, so they decisively abandoned their car to protect the commander."
"Of course, it could also be because killing is part of their ritual, but I just don't know what they want to do..."
Gallo was confused and didn't quite understand, so he could only curse in a low voice:
"These cults are so stupid! Don't they know that conspiracy and tricks are useless?"
"The more you play tricks, the more you will find that human abilities have limits... Don't you even understand such a simple truth?"
The old bishop couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and asked curiously:
"Is this the philosophy of your hometown again?"
"Yes, does it make sense?"
Gallo asked with a slightly amused look.
"If you think about it carefully, it does make sense..."
"When humans think, gods laugh. In the face of real power, these little tricks are really ridiculous..."
The old bishop sighed softly.
"So, there is no need to think too much, even if it means summoning the evil god and beating him back to his hometown, wouldn't it be good?"
After listening to Gallo's simple logic, the old bishop actually agreed and echoed:
"That's true. The City of Innocence is a place watched by the gods. Even if an evil god comes to the world, there are still those big sects who will stand up..."
Gallo did not continue to dwell on this issue. He was more concerned about renting a new church.
So, he studied and exercised for a long time and went to bed early at night.
Before going to bed, I still confess to the goddess every day:
"Lord Miya, I like you the most!"
"It is a sin to like gods. I hope you can forgive me!"
When everyone fell asleep and everything was quiet, three sneaky figures in black robes came to Old Oak Street.
One of them looked around and said:
"Is this where the fluctuations disappear? But this is just an ordinary civilian area, with thousands of households living there..."
The man in the middle clenched his fists and said coldly:
"Family after family, we must find out the criminals who plotted to murder the angel of God, and crush their ashes!"
At this time, the third person noticed something strange.
"Wait a minute, why is there a church in a place like this?"
The three men in black robes couldn't help but look at the Miya church, which looked similar to a private house.
"I've never heard of the Miya Sect. Where did the Pheasant Sect come from? No wonder I can only stay in such a shabby place..."
"Go in and take a look!"
"But... Chief Priest, this seems to be a church of false gods. If we enter rashly, will it..."
"Idiot, how can a small sect in such a place really worship a false god?"
The man in black robes in the middle cursed in a low voice, took the lead to go around the backyard, and climbed in quickly.
But before he could stand still, he saw two dark red lights suddenly light up in the darkness...
