White area, a certain slum.
The path leading to the block is winding and winding, and the vegetation on both sides has long since withered. It is now around two o'clock in the morning, and except for the murmurs of drunkards and the occasional call of night doves from a distance, there is no other sound.
"Ahem...this terrible and embarrassing appearance really disgraces the church."
Rebecca leaned against the broken wall. She tried to stand up, but her limbs were limp and she had no strength at all. The soft armor lining was also in tatters, with strips hanging on her body.
However, the most serious injury was in the chest. Something could be vaguely seen beating, and the edges of the cracked muscles were purple-black.
She was lucky that her heart was not dug out on the spot.
Who would have thought that the masterminds behind the murder were actually a group of mid-level people?
If her faith in the goddess of the night was not strong enough to support her body, Rebecca would have collapsed.
For every member of the investigation team, this is definitely an eternal nightmare.
It came suddenly, but it couldn't end.
What went wrong?
After accepting the commission from the Knights, the church immediately organized a team of four. Their task was to find out the identity of the murderer and make adjustments at any time according to the situation.
The White District is very ancient, and it is also the place where various sects first spread their beliefs. In addition, it is difficult enough here. Many citizens regard darkness as a spiritual comfort, hoping to be sheltered and have a good sleep, so as not to be suddenly murdered in their sleep. .
This not only allowed them to gather enough power of faith, but also acted like a fish in water. They quickly found some clues——
There is a mysterious organization gathering in a certain beer hall.
Nervous roars, the smell of blood from time to time...
Four low-sequence paladins known for their fighting unanimously decided to rush in and investigate.
Then, it became like this.
Only one person was seriously injured and escaped, while the others were all disemboweled and died at the hands of heretics with a smile.
The reason why they are called heretics is because Rebecca feels that the power used by these demons in human skin has the same source as them.
This is absolutely blasphemy to the goddess of the night!
"Be sure to pass this on to the church."
She swore in her mind.
Based on his understanding of the city's layout, the only remaining investigator quickly determined that there was a temple very close to here. If he took a strong breath, he could still be noticed even if he couldn't reach it.
Of course, she had to lower her head and receive treatment from the evil mechanical cult——
In the eyes of major primitive religions, machinery is an out-and-out alien. They love to blaspheme the sacred. They have openly declared that the names and sequences of gods can be explained by science. They should be unified and merged, and steam engines are being used. Move the world.
"Not only for my selfish desire to survive, but also to pass on the news."
Rebecca started to move.
Unfortunately, she couldn't move far before she could move forward. The miserable blood moon in the sky exuded a blood-colored halo.
"It must be painful."
A greeting came to my ears, and my nose smelled a faint fishy smell.
"Actually, I have caught up with you a long time ago, but the prey stopped running, and the hunter also lost interest in playing."
The person said as he stuffed three things into Rebecca's arms.
They were the heads of three attendants. Their eyes had been gouged out, leaving only bloody holes. Their lips were slightly open, with no tongues inside. They seemed to be silently roaring their filial piety.
Rebecca wanted to curse and pray to the goddess, but her throat was tightened, and after her voice escaped, it turned into a death cry...
"What should I do with you? You look so beautiful and shouldn't be treated in such a rough way."
The murderer who initiated the pursuit was also a woman. She smiled, with slight dimples appearing on her cheeks.
While she was thinking, she suddenly raised her eyes and looked at the sky in confusion, and heard a voice:
"My sword shines with silver light."
There was a flash of light.
"Just cutting the arm will cause the whole body to collapse. The effect is too exaggerated."
This time Lu Li only had one audience left.
A drowsy sight drifted towards the wolf-headed sword and the crutch. Within the Church of the Night, the wolf represents the sacred...
The next moment, light bloomed.
Church of the Sun?
Rebecca overturned her previous guess and then fell into a sweet dream.
"Boss, who is she?"
A knight hurried over.
It is worth mentioning that although the title "boss" seems nondescript and very informal, the four temporary subordinates still chose to accept it under Lu Li's strong request.
"A poor girl who was being hunted."
As he spoke, Lu Li pointed at his feet.
There was a pile of clothes there, but the owner was nowhere to be found. Maybe it was because the corpse had been destroyed, or maybe it was for some other reason. Anyway, the knight didn't know.
All he knew was that there was still no clue about the investigation of the Pluto Plague. The boss planned to wander around at night, maybe he could find some vague clues.
As a result...a beautiful girl with a delicate face was saved.
"Let's go back to the station."
"I'll take the first step."
After saying that, Lu Li disappeared from the knight's sight, carrying the unexpected gains from the night patrol.
"What's this called?"
Intuition told Zhanqi that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time, so he left quickly.
…
The first team of the Special Operations Department, temporary station.
A slightly old abandoned water tower.
"The terrible disembowelment. Unexpectedly, even the followers of the Night Goddess suffered huge losses."
The forensic officer took out a pack of windproof matches, lit a cigarette for himself, and took a deep breath:
"However, there is a survivor after all. Why don't we ask her what she found?"
"First there was the large-scale disembowelled eucalyptus, and then there was the Pluto plague. I always felt like there was a trap in it."
A knight who took off his breastplate to use as an armrest flicked the ashes from his cigarette and sighed: "You know, I have always had a keen sense of smell."
"So when she wakes up, send her away as soon as possible. Anyway, the case has been handed over, and everyone is focused on investigating the Pluto plague."
"Will the boss agree? It's obvious that he is very interested in that beautiful woman."
"..."
The four fell into silence.
When the cigarette was finished, the forensic officer threw down the cigarette butt and said solemnly: "I will try to persuade him, but as you know, the boss is very independent and powerful, so he may not succeed."
inside the room.
"Miss Rebecca."
Lu Li, who was guarding the bedside, recited his name again and whistled: "The flower of the Church of Dark Night, a female warrior who is proficient in divine arts. Because she disappeared last night with three other teammates, the Church fell into madness. She is spreading throughout the city. search."
"You know I'm awake?"
"Of course." Lu Li looked behind him.
After hesitating for a long time, the forensic officer Lin Nai finally pushed open the door and entered. Before he could speak, he heard the new boss order:
"Prepare some bland food, avoid wheat products, milk and rice cakes are good."
