Mystery: Shadow of Order Chapter 497

In the dark and quiet hall, after Leonard and his teammates finished praying, they got up and walked towards the side passage through the back of the church. Along the way, they saw a priest standing outside the secret door leading to the underground area. The right hand skillfully tapped clockwise four times on the chest and said:

"Praise the goddess."

The leader of the "Red Gloves" captain Soest also outlined the crimson moon on his chest, and responded:

"Praise the goddess."

"Your Excellency St. Anthony is already waiting for you in the conference room." The bishop stepped aside.

Soest and the team members behind him were a little puzzled. The "Red Gloves" are a special operations team composed of elite "Nighthawks", and they are not restricted by jurisdiction. Although Anthony Stevenson is the Archbishop of the Backlund Diocese, he generally does not Will intervene in their actions.

"I see."

Soster didn't dare to neglect, and led his team members hurriedly through the secret door, turned left at the intersection to the underground area of ​​the church, came to the conference room, and saw Anthony Stevenson.

"Lord Saint Anthony."

After saying hello one by one, Anthony, who was wearing a black and red clergy robe and five dark holy emblems on his chest, nodded and showed a warm smile:

"Thank you everyone, please sit down."

"yes."

Leonard followed his teammates to find their seats and sit down.

"I'm here because it's related to your operation to capture the human-skinned demons. You need to sort out the information about the 'demons' involved in this operation, including abilities, families, rituals, etc. Everyone needs to submit a report. "

Anthony's smile and tone did not change, but it made Soest, Leonard and others feel a sense of fear of the unknown.

Both Android and Apple are available. 】

"This is very important. The second officer of the 'Undead King', the 'Slaughter' Gilchies, was killed by an adventurer Gehrman Sparrow, and Agaritu also showed behavior that did not conform to the usual behavior. In order to prevent He suddenly went crazy, we have to make some preparations in advance with the Church of the Storm."

"clear."

In order to catch the human skin demon before, Soest learned a lot about this way. The "demons" of Sequence 6 will have their own special abilities due to different races, beliefs, bloodlines, and knowledge, and even the "serial killers" of Sequence 7 can also rely on knowledge and special rituals to summon demon projections. tricky existence.

If their team hadn't experienced too many difficulties just now and urgently needed a rest, he doubted that he would be called directly to use their experience to better target the "Undead King".

"Okay, go down and rest, dealing with 'demons' is not an easy task."

The "Red Gloves" got up and said in unison again:

"Praise the goddess."

Afterwards, they each left and returned to their residences in Backlund.

But Leonard did not return to 7 Pinster Street. Instead, he asked a pastor and went to the duty room in the underground area. Deacon Daly Simone, who was on duty, stood outside the duty room, wearing blue eyeshadow Her eyes were confused, and she blinked after seeing Leonard's arrival, regaining her spirits.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

"You sound so old-fashioned." Dai Li curled her lips, and the cold temperament all over her body dissipated, "It's been so long since I came back, the task is difficult? Then you should have accumulated enough to be promoted to 'Requiem Master' meritorious service?"

The corner of Leonard's mouth twitched, but he didn't dare to fight back. He was no match for Ms. Daly in this respect, so he nodded.

"Hehe, tell me, little guy, what do you want from me? Want to ask about the performance of 'Requiem Master'?"

"It may take a few days..."

Leonard looked at Ms. Daly, whose face was not very good-looking, and told the contents of the meeting of His Excellency St. Anthony just now.

Daly, who didn't know what Leonard meant by these words, raised her chin with a "that's it" expression.

"Remember the death of Duke Negan?"

"A demon from the Beria family?"

"Well, and his secretary, Lockhard Siakam."

Both Leonard and Daly have followed this matter, but no specific results have been found in the investigation. It is only known that this very suspicious secretary and a "janitor" fought a battle in the south area of ​​the bridge, and then each get away.

"Do you always chat with ladies like this? Only those little girls who haven't grown up like your way of speaking." Daly looked at Leonard with a hesitant expression, half self-deprecating and half urging.

Leonard still hesitated, but finally said:

"...Your Excellency Selt from MI9 once mentioned that the 'janitor' may be related to Azik Eggers. I mentioned this person to you before. He once appeared in the Blackthorn Security Company..."

He didn't specify the time, but he knew Ms. Daly understood what he meant.

"So?"

There seemed to be countless shadows hidden around Daly's body, layer after layer, deep and cold.

Leonard didn't care about the changes in Daly's body. He glanced at the closed duty room and said softly:

"Azik Eggers is not an ordinary person, he is a high-sequence powerhouse of the 'Reaper' pathway, and shortly after that the captain's...captain's body also disappeared."

He didn't say "corpse", but replaced it with a body. In the Raphael cemetery in Tingen, there is only a suit of clothes under the tombstone of Dunn Smith. And Azik Eggers is the "Death Consul" of the Fourth Epoch Balam Empire, an angel of Sequence 2. There is no special consideration for such an existence, and he will definitely not take away the captain who only has a Sequence 7 level.

Translucent shadows emerged from under Daly's black robe, a thick shadow spread out from her body with cold air, and the expression on the face with blue blush was changing.

"Ms. Daly!"

Leonard called in a low voice to wake up Daly Simone, and the door of the duty room not far behind was also opened. Several "Night Watchers" on duty looked at this place with nervous expressions. The scene just now seemed too much like a precursor to a loss of control up.

"You go home first, I'll be there right away." Dai Li gathered the black robe on her body, turned and walked into the duty room.

Slightly exhaling, Leonard turned and left the underground area, and returned to his residence at No. 7 Pinster Street in Backlund, waiting for Ms. Daly with some trepidation. He didn't know whether he was doing the right thing or not, but at least he could give the other party some hope.

He sat on the sofa, completely lost the laxity of the past.

"Old man, did you really not see clearly at that time?"

"Hehe, I just initially parasitized you. I can only see what you see and hear what you hear. If you don't see it, how can I see it?" The old voice whispered in Leonard's ear. edge rings.

"Hmph, what happened just now? I didn't notice that anyone in the church had an ancient aura."

Leonard clearly remembered what happened just now, but the voice fell silent after he finished asking.

"You just want to ask me, is there any hope for your captain, Dunn Smith, to be alive? Hehe, I can tell you that if it is Azik Eggers in a normal state, it is true that the extraordinary characteristic state has been precipitated. Save him, but a few months ago, her condition was not much better than mine, even if there is a special method, your captain will not be in good condition, and it is very likely that she has been transformed into a necromancer."

"Then does he still have self-awareness?"

Seeing that he had achieved his goal, Leonard stopped asking the question just now. As a "red glove", he also has a certain understanding of undead creatures, most of which are puppets without self-awareness.

"I can't be sure, it depends on what method Ards used and how much she has recovered in the past period of time."

At this time, the jingling doorbell rang, and Leonard's face immediately collapsed. He regretted it a little now.

Pasu Island, here is the headquarters of the Church of the Storm, the place where the true gods look.

And Alger Wilson, who was the middle-level member of the church, was giving a report on the Thunder Church on this island. Under the guidance of the servants, he entered a room with a long table and was questioned by the three "Punisher" deacons.

Among the three deacons, only one had dark blue hair. Alger sat down at the head of the long table, and answered the deacons' inquiries in an orderly manner, telling what he had done at sea during this time and what he planned to do. , Which ones succeeded and which failed one by one.

And this will be compared with the stories of other crew members to prevent anyone from lying.

At the end of the debriefing, the dark blue-haired deacon glanced at Alger and asked in a thick voice:

"You should already know the news that 'Admiral Huntsman' has arrived at the Sea of ​​White Whales?"

"yes."

Alger nodded, this is the news he got after communicating with other "captains".

"In the previous period of time, 'Admiral of the Stars' Cattleya and 'Undead King' Agaritu were both active in that sea area, especially the latter, who was killed by Gehrman in the 'Slaughter' Kirchies Sparrow became very abnormal after being killed, this requires you to investigate."

This is not the reason why Gehrman hunted the "Slayer"... After thinking carefully, Alger realized what the "hermit" said before. Agaritu's abnormality is because of "King of the Five Seas" Nast The impact of being promoted to Angel, but the people who know this news may be limited to their Tarot Club and the "Queen of Mysteries" and "Dark Emperor".

"yes."

After simply dealing with the follow-up questions, Argel left the Thunder Church, left Passo Island, and drove the "Blue Avenger" to the Sea of ​​White Whales.

Walking along the road formed by vines, interspersed or circling, all the way to the sky, every step Rawls takes is equivalent to dozens of steps for normal people. Ten seconds later, he saw those green plants forming a hammock-like seat, swaying gently on a high place.

"Queen of Mysteries" Bernadette was sitting there, wearing a white Intis-style shirt and a dark black jacket, with a thin rapier on her waist. Except for not wearing a three-cornered hat, she was dressed like a standard sea captain.

"This is Backlund, not the sea."

As a "lawyer", Rawls almost instinctively wants to gain the upper hand in words.

"Do you need me to salute you? Respected Viscount Drian." Bernadette revealed Rawls's identity in a flat tone.

"That's not necessary. The daughter of Emperor Roselle, the eldest princess of the Intis Empire, is much more noble than a small viscount."

Rawls was not surprised that his identity was known by Bernadette. He only made a simple disguise when he met with the other party twice. He only needed to do a little investigation to find out his identity. After all, Rawls A Derian's reputation is quite resounding in Backlund.

If the other party found out the identity of Rolls Gonzalez, he might be surprised.

But this doesn't mean that he doesn't care, that's why he uses the identity Bernadette hates the most to address her.

"With just the status of a Viscount, I'm afraid it's not enough to revive the Tamara family?" Bernadette's expression didn't change at all, she was no longer that innocent little girl.

"So, we appreciate your help."

Rawls bowed and saluted.

This time when Bernadette proposed to meet, he naturally understood the other party's purpose. The other party's property in Ruen has been transferred to the Tamara family, and now UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is here to ask for a reward.

"Why did you choose Nast?"

"No, no, it's not that we chose him, it's that he is too obvious in the extraordinary world." Rawls spread his hands, showing a helpless smile, "You know, at our stage, the power of choice is often not on us .Moreover, we didn't expect that Nast would be promoted to Angel so quickly."

It was indeed beyond his expectation that Nast had a sealed item or characteristic corresponding to the "Duke of Entropy", and Bernadette actually helped him complete the promotion ceremony so decisively.

"But don't worry, she won't be able to complete the ritual of 'Prince Killing Order' unless he personally destroys her pirate empire."

In fact, Rawls felt a little pity for Nast. The reason why Nast had his current position was because he had established a pirate empire, but if he wanted to continue to advance, he had to destroy it. Compared to her, Trunsost and Alista Tudor, who used to be the "Duke of Entropy", are much better. The destruction of Solomon directly helped them complete the ceremony.

Even if Nast is an angel now, it is impossible to destroy the order of a country.

"Aren't you going to help her?"

In Bernadette's view, since the Tamara family aimed at Loen, Nast could take this opportunity to complete the ceremony.

Rawls squeezed out an exaggerated smile and said in surprise:

"You don't think we want to destroy Loen, do you? The three major churches and the true God behind them will not agree with us."

It is much harder to destroy a country than to steal it. In fact, the destruction of the Solomon Empire, the United Empire, and the Trunsost Empire all stemmed from internal turmoil, and they were essentially stealing the country. Only the Second Solomon Empire and the Tudor Empire were truly destroyed.

The destruction of every country represents the fall of the true God.
