121. The clue is broken again

"It seems that we barely caught up."

The man under the shield stood up, his breathing not very steady.

It looked like I had traveled a long way.

"This person is...?"

Hank pointed at the bald infected man lying on the ground with his non-shield finger.

"I don't know...maybe it's the commander."

This accident happened too suddenly, and no more information was obtained.

He may even have revealed information about someone infiltrating.

Hank scratched his head in distress, struggled for a long time, and finally said:

"Oh, safety is the most important thing, forget it."

Then, he said to Nate again as if joking:

"To be honest, you can solve it even without me, right?"

Hank recalled Nate's dazzling series of actions just now, and felt that he had re-recognized Nate's fighting ability.

"No...you've been a big help."

I have to say that Hank is really a magic weapon from heaven this time - if the bald man really starts his second attack, Nate may not be able to stop him.

Moreover, the ultimate move like "crossing the saddle and cutting" cannot be used at all times.

This move was originally a gorgeous move used in knight competitions to show off skills: a knight on a war horse leaps high when charging, attacks from above the enemy's head, and then falls back on the horse again.

I heard that some powerful knights could complete such actions with only physical strength... Nate felt that this was not groundless.

After all, the powerful Knight Casimir is able to turn the tide of the battle on his own and transcends common sense.

But he himself...is far from powerful and glorious.

What's more... Nate looked at Hank with a strange expression.

He is more than a head taller than me.

Sure enough, height and leg length are my flaws.

No matter how……

"Finally solved." Nate breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the bald body, turned to Hank and asked:

"Speaking of which, why are you..."

Nate's communicator must have been destroyed just now, so no information would be sent out. Why did Hank come here?

Hank saw his doubts and replied directly before Nate finished asking:

"Your communication signal was suddenly interrupted, but the position signal changed position repeatedly within this range. We guessed that you were in trouble. I came directly to find you and caught up with you."

Nate glanced at the button-shaped signal transmitter on his collar.

"Thank you so much, Hank."

"If you want to say thank you, please change the time."

Hank took out the spare headset from his bag and handed it to Nate:

"You connect to the channel first, we have to hurry up and find someone. Do you remember the mission? Find someone..."

"Report."

As soon as Nate connected the headset, Jiang Shao's voice came:

"Sister Agata has been found - we are in this little one-story house to the east. And so are the children."

"Those who have received the message are asked to gather here quickly."

It seems that the person has been found.

Nate looked at the time:

This should make it possible to leave before dawn... I hope the news hasn't been leaked.

"Report...I found Nate. His injuries are serious."

Player's voice entered the channel: "Nate, report the situation."

"yes."

Nate organized his language slightly and said:

"We encountered a target suspected of being a terrorist leader. The target is now dead. No other intelligence has been obtained, and we don't know if the information has been leaked yet."

"How's the injury?"

"... Report to the commander, it will not affect the operation."

"...be more careful yourself." Player continued to ask:

"What are the characteristics of the enemy?"

After Nate reported truthfully, Player investigated the information about this person and found that he was indeed a well-known terrorist leader in Ursus.

"You guys should join the team first. Find the mission target first."

"Currently, most of the buildings have been searched, and there are no clues yet. Maybe we can find some ideas from her."

"yes."

After disconnecting the communication and the two were about to leave, Nate suddenly remembered the strong man's body.

Maybe he will have some clues...

After struggling to turn his body over, Nate searched all his pockets, but could never find a communication device or a map.

——There is just an engraved ring in the breast pocket.

The "search" ended here. Nate took the ring and the two of them rushed to the east dormitory building.

——————————

"Then...this is Sister Agata."

The slender woman wore a blood-stained monastic uniform and sat on a chair with a stiff expression.

Jiang Yan explained in a low voice to everyone:

"Agata said she was responsible for the vigil today...so when the mob came, she had time to hide - right under the pulpit."

Tie Zhi and others who had seen that scene lowered their heads silently when they heard this.

Should I say she was lucky... Because of a coincidence, she was able to hide, so there didn't seem to be any wounds on her body.

The violence in that church did not affect her at all, so she is still sitting here.

But this must also be a great misfortune... After seeing such a hell on earth, can this young priest really live a good life?

Jiang Yan hesitated and said: "Sister, can you tell me... what happened at that time?"

Although it is cruel to ask her for details, it has to be done now.

"Like...are they looking for something, like that?"

The nun's voice trembled and she slowly spoke:

"It should be...no."

It is not easy for an Ursus to speak such fluent English, not to mention that Agata is also enduring such mental pressure.

"They are just doing violence..."

After a brief silence, Nate asked:

"Then have you ever seen a bald man - an Ursus man, with a source stone crystal on his head?"

"……Um."

The nun tried her best to recall the scene in her mind and said:

"He should be their leader. I saw him. He was the first to enter the church, followed by an...angel."

"Angel?"

Everyone was surprised. Were there any Sacota people from Rutland who participated in this riot?

"Well, an angel. Following her is...an old man."

The nun's eyes were in a trance, as if she couldn't distinguish between reality and nightmare. Although the information in this state was likely to be wrong, it should not be interrupted hastily, as important information might be missed.

"The thug seemed to respect her very much. Finally, the angel gave him something like a ring and then left."

Hearing this, Nate thought of the mysterious ring he had found - it seemed that it had a great background.

"Then...what's next?"

The nun trembled and said:

"...I kept hiding until the end. I didn't find anyone else alive - except Anfiasi - I was afraid that she couldn't continue walking, so I hid her in the confessional. Then I thought...

"

At this point, she finally couldn't keep calm anymore and covered her face and started sobbing.

"...Thank you for your hard work, sorry."

Jiang Yan handed the handkerchief to the nun without asking any questions.

Everyone looked at each other in silence.

——The clue may have been broken again.
