The Destiny Star team's guarding of the defect did not last for a few days. Their mission was interrupted by the appearance of a special creature.
This is a big guy nearly nine feet tall, with bone blades on its elbows and a long tail. Although its appearance is somewhat similar to the two demons in the records, the color of its body is very different.
What really made the Destiny team decide to suspend their guard duty was the fact that the creature appeared with a magic gun and was equipped with a ram breastplate and helmet.
However, even if its equipment is considered sophisticated elsewhere and it is very powerful, in front of the God Warrior team, it only caused a little trouble and was captured alive.
According to the papal decree, all intelligent creatures whose image does not match that of the demons in the classics must be treated with caution and must be sent to various dioceses for trial.
The creature in front of me had a magic gun and stamped armor, so there was no need to consider whether it was intelligent or not. After being detained on the spot for two days, some defenders and a few mercenaries were organized in a nearby town to keep an eye on the flaws. The Destiny Star team broke away and escorted the creature. Take the captives to Sun City.
Sun City is located inside St. Anthony. It is the holy city of the Church of Light and is not under the jurisdiction of St. Anthony.
Although the order only needs to be sent to the diocese, the location of the Destiny Star team is closer to Sun City, so there is no need to go far.
The prisoners are still very dangerous after being disarmed. This thing is extremely powerful and large. The Destiny Star team only left the light armed forces when necessary along the way. By the time the handover in Sun City was made, they were already in a very bad mood.
"Hurry up, we all stink."
This aspect of the Light Arms is very bad. In order to maintain protection, except for the head which can breathe, the other parts are completely closed. Once it is inside for a long time, the smell will be very disgusting. If the creatures being escorted are not too dangerous, it should be Shower and clean the inside of your weapon every day.
The young priest stayed far away and replied: "This one you brought is too big, and the people at the trial must also be prepared."
There is no need to verify force. The basic threat from larger creatures is higher. To ensure the safety of personnel, the entire custody and trial process is different and slower.
I have no choice but to continue to endure it.
After waiting for less than half an hour, the people from the trial court came out fully armed to hand over, including a heavily armored judge and two adjudicators wearing bright weapons.
The prisoners were transferred to the trial house, which also moved into Bengbu a few days later.
"Presiding judge, it didn't explain anything. If it tries again, it will probably lead to death." The judge in charge of the background investigation is very troubled by this kind of situation.
The presiding judge also felt embarrassed after hearing this.
The reason why the papal decree requires caution in dealing with aliens is known to the Inquisition, because this holy war will involve the exile. This kind of thing that is neither like a demon nor has anything to do with humans is probably a species of the exile. The local forces tend to be hostile to begin with, and the subsequent pressure to turn them into mortal enemies will be even greater.
"Cure it first, and I'll ask Saint Cilin."
There are two saints in the Church of Light. One is a business saint, who is mainly responsible for sharing the teaching duties and external image of the pope. She is the saint Xilin who the presiding judge is looking for. Ling Yi is a container-type saint. The current one is a bit old and her carrying capacity has declined. She is ready to retire. She will also be responsible for some academic affairs in Sun City, but she has no real power.
After the container saint carries the advent body, the status of the two saints will be reversed, and the Pope will step aside, but that is not something that needs to be considered now.
I met Saint Xilin and received instructions to continue the torture.
In fact, in addition to torture, the trial court also has many methods, such as directly reading memories.
However, you must be very careful when reading memories. No matter how powerful the Inquisitor is, once he chooses the wrong reading object, he may become a heretic and run the risk of going crazy.
Although the guy in front of him had a tough talk, through equipment analysis, he judged that he was most likely an ignorant mercenary who had stumbled into a flaw.
Its magic gun magic power supply device is made detachable, and each supply device has a magic gem with extremely high purity.
If such a level of luxury belongs to a certain lord, he must be of high status, and it is unlikely that the news of his companion's appearance has not been heard after more than ten days of interrogation.
It is really a waste to let a senior judge take the risk of using memory reading in exchange for the information of a mercenary. Judges are not grown in the ground, and it takes a lot of money to train them.
As for other methods other than reading memories, they will not work for this single guest in the exile. The only way is to use torture.
But this guy's mouth is really tough. No matter how he's tortured, he won't utter a single word... No, if it counts as swearing, there will be movement every day.
In fact, there is a valid message in swearing: it uses a language that is not recorded in the Eucalyptus.
It's a pity that this kind of information is useless. The penal colony is filled with all kinds of mixed-race people, and there are many types of languages used. The hands of the Church of Light cannot reach there, and there are too many unknown languages.
The repeated torture and treatment lasted for a whole month, but still nothing useful was obtained, which made the relevant executioners very tired and irritable.
The trial court was not willing to continue to waste manpower and food, so the chief judge decided to cripple it without treatment. After confirming that it was true, it gave it a happy life without saying a word.
Of course we must abide by the papal decree, but the Inquisition will not take the blame for the Pope for anything other than doctrine, and we will never let any alien race walk out of Sun City alive. This is the principle of the Inquisition. After all "people" have been sent here, the end has naturally been Set.
…
Platoons of soldiers of the 1st Reconnaissance Company observed a strange phenomenon in the lava lake area.
From time to time, a group of indescribable colors will appear here, and occasionally a little devil will get into it and never come back.
Some soldiers volunteered to try to touch the color group.
The squad leader kept in mind the requirements of his superiors. At this stage, while obtaining intelligence, the preservation of viable forces is the first priority. However, a piece of color is not intelligence. At least it must be confirmed whether it is a threat.
So Squad One sneaked up on a group of colors, and when there were no little devils around, they sent a soldier to touch the colors.
Just like what they observed with the little devil, as long as it touches this ball of color, it will automatically extend to cover the entire person. Just looking at the outline changes, it looks like the person has been digested.
But the soldier proved that it was not an act of digestion, because after the lump that protruded and wrapped the soldier lost the outline of the sharp blade, two things were still thrown out, the projectile box and the wooden kettle, and the wooden kettle came out in different directions. , on the other side of the color.
But no one came out again.
The soldiers squatted in place for a week, and the color of cannibalism disappeared halfway. After the food and sugar they brought with them were finished, everyone showed a certain decline in physical fitness and had to give up waiting. The injured returned to the rear to report the situation.
The headquarters of the 1st Reconnaissance Company also quickly sent people to inform the teams ahead who were performing reconnaissance missions that no one should be exposed to the strange colors in the lava lake area.
The forward reconnaissance mission continues.
It's called reconnaissance, but it's actually more like lurking.
Whether you can enter the original lava area mainly depends on the temperature changes. Although the surface is hardened in most places, the temperature will still fluctuate, and the surface may even break open and lava will flow out again.
Most of the actions of each team are still to seize the high ground for disguised observation, and take advantage of the occasional windy period to use the improved field of vision to collect as much useful information as possible, including the activity patterns of the little devils, the relationship between the surrounding monsters and the little devils, etc.
