The candlelight was stretched out in the shadows, and the fortress walls seemed to twist.
silence.
Only the rhythmic sound of footsteps echoed.
In the corridor, a pair of deputy portraits are neatly arranged. They are all portraits of the chief and deputy captains (knight captains) of the Knights. Their names, birth and death dates are neatly written in the lower corners of the oilcloth.
"Please come in."
The voice came from behind the door.
Lu Li pushed the door open and walked in. The guiding knight stood outside, waiting for orders at any time. He closed the door smoothly to ensure that the sound would not be leaked.
A middle-aged uncle with a resolute face, brown and black hair, and sharp edges, which is very consistent with the stereotype in public perception.
"Hello, sir."
Since Lu Li has engraved stealth into his instincts, or in other words, when showing his invisible werewolf posture, he will automatically enter the state established by his exclusive skill [Low-key King Way]. No one can find out the clues before he takes the initiative to reveal his edge, so this As a deputy commander, he can only use weapons to see through the situation.
A strange looking cane.
Maybe there are weapons hidden inside.
Have some self-awareness.
The above shows that he has all the information about Langtou Jianguai, and he doesn't know what to call Lu Li.
"Hello."
Lu Li stretched out his right hand.
There is a handshake ceremony in this world, and its meaning is consistent with conventional understanding.
Soon, the two were talking face to face.
Social graces were essential, but after a few polite words, the knight commander got to the point, hoping that Lu Li could serve as a consultant to help investigate the Pluto plague.
Because one day passed, nearly a hundred deaths were reported in the own jurisdiction. Not only was the attack violent, but related news also came out in other districts of the capital.
Lu Li accepted this, but he was curious as to why the Knights didn't investigate on their own, so he immediately explained that he was from a foreign land and was an explorer who came here to rest, hoping to learn about this country.
Ever since, the seemingly short but informative introduction began.
Half an hour later.
Lu Li felt that he knew hundreds of times more than Yang Kai.
Of course, the reason is also very simple. In the Knight Commander's perception, he is a mid-level extraordinary person and is not interested in those superficial things in the market, so he only talks about secret things.
for example:
Among the six major divine beliefs, the number of followers of the newest god of steam and machinery is increasing rapidly, and more and more extraordinary beings are entering the ranks.
Followed by the Church of the Sun Goddess, the Church of the Night Goddess, and the Church of the Mother Earth Goddess, which represent the worship of celestial nature.
Finally, there is the goddess of wisdom and the god of war.
The former provides strength for professions such as lawyers and families, and is relatively stable in faith.
The worst thing is the God of War. The Knights are very old and have always believed in her. Since then, they have gained a stable source of power and a path to promotion.
But with the development of science and technology and the emergence of firearms, ordinary people can pose a threat to low-sequence extraordinary beings, and they will naturally be eliminated.
So much so that the Knights have become a kind of decoration, nominally responsible for city defense and maintaining order, but in fact they are task publishers——
There are fates at night, involving supernatural factors, which are solved by followers of the goddess of the night.
The same is true for fate happening during the day.
The same thing happens with technological creations.
Often because other churches don't have enough manpower, the Knights leave it to the Mother Earth Church to handle the matter on the grounds that the death occurred on the earth.
In this case, believers of the Goddess of Wisdom cannot avoid the fate of being entrusted.
The knight, who gradually lost his power, began to focus on trivial matters.
Of course, this was the explanation provided by the other party, and Lu Li was unconvinced. After all, half an hour was not a long time, and it was difficult to establish basic understanding, not to mention that he had no chance to initiate active questions.
Many details need to be understood from subordinates——
In order to allow Lu Li, the entrusted person from a foreign land, to integrate as quickly as possible and coordinate all forces, the Knight Commander arranged for him a "luxury" team consisting of a forensic officer and three combat knights.
The former is a believer in the Goddess of Wisdom and has successfully become a transcendent through Taoism. The latter is gathering materials and trying to find a way to enter the war sequence.
Materials and methods.
I have to lament that every world has its own unique power system. It is a pity that these people do not know the source of the system.
Anyway, the knight commander didn't say anything. He asked the forensic officer Linnai. He shook his head decisively and said he didn't know. He didn't even have a clue about the upper sequence of this path, let alone the more advanced fields.
Step into the extraordinary realm but don’t know how to advance?
Too ridiculous.
The avenue of war seems to be really useless.
In addition, judging from this contact, Lu Li believed that the so-called "war" might not be accurate.
Goddess, Mother Goddess.
It cannot be ruled out that believers worship blindly and visualize the object of belief according to their own understanding.
Of course, Lu Li was not entangled. He just wanted to create some sparks with the civilization of another world. If he had to find the answer, the University of Michigan Library should have the relevant answer.
…
apartment.
Yang Kai stood in the foyer waiting anxiously.
The source of his own sense of security and the tasks assigned by the academy were all inseparable from Lu Li. He was worried that there was some conspiracy devised by the Knights.
Until there was a knock on the door, and the senior whom he had longed for appeared in front of him.
"How's it going? Has the manuscript been included?"
"Well, money clears the way. It will be on the front page tomorrow morning so that people in the city who have the habit of reading newspapers can see it."
"During this period, you stay in the apartment and slowly verify your abilities. I want to assist the Knights in investigating that Hades."
"good."
Yang Kai nodded obediently. For some reason, he had a strong intuition that he was the real tool.
Obviously, Senior Lu has lost his enthusiasm on the first day and has found his own career. At most, he will ask about it on the day of results.
In fact, it's not that the reality is cruel, it's just that Lu Li doesn't want to be a nanny and hang around a big man.
If Yang Kai encounters any trouble, he will provide help and protect him until he successfully arrives at the University of Michigan campus.
"By the way, according to the classification of Knight Commander, this profession, which also has the opportunity to enter the extraordinary field, should be classified into the [wisdom] category."
He went upstairs to pick up his special suitcase. Before closing the door, Lu Li said specifically: "You can go to the relevant churches when you have time. Regarding this outbreak of Pluto Plague, I still have the same attitude as yesterday. The contagion is far less than in the past. There must be a conspiracy."
He did not add a goddess to modify it, because wisdom may be a wrong description. One thing is that he likes this feeling of exploring, so he started with Pluto.
Is this a trial before further training?
outside the door.
The team of four is waiting patiently.
[The First Team of the White Area Knights Special Operations Department]
This is their brand new title.
The reason why it was named the first group was because of this change, which was a newly created department created by the Knight Commander.
After all, inviting Lu Li to join the investigation expanded the number of people the Knights could entrust. They were no longer limited to the major religious sects and were able to find wild sequencers among the people to complete subsequent expansion.
