"Beast? This is a church! The light of God shines here! Not to mention the beast, even the more powerful monsters would never dare to come here!" Faced with Li Yan's question, Luke surprisingly improved slightly. volume.
From what Luke said, the church seemed to have the power to drive away wild beasts, but Li Yan knew it was definitely not a wild beast, so he just said it casually and didn't care.
"Warcraft?" On the contrary, this word made Li Yan pay attention immediately.
"Yes." Luke's voice weakened again at this time, and he said in an almost inaudible voice: "We hired you to prevent monsters from entering the village. Don't you all know this?"
"Um, I'm really sorry. I suddenly can't remember. Can you please say it again?" Li Yan said with an embarrassed look.
When Luke heard this, he not only looked at the mercenary "David" in front of him with some suspicion.
Li Yan immediately pretended to be honest and laughed twice.
"I guess my brain has been damaged by drinking," Luke muttered in a low voice, and then said reluctantly: "This time of year is when the beasts in the dark forest nearby are the most playful. Most of the people in the small village make a living by logging and hunting, so they have no problem dealing with these beasts, but they are afraid that some powerful monsters will come out, so they hire mercenaries every year."
"Oh..." Li Yan nodded thoughtfully, and then asked: "How far are the other nearest villages from here?"
"That's far away. I don't need to tell you the dangers of this forest. You mercenaries all know it. So except for our village with its tall city wall and people living in it, there are no other villages nearby, even the closest ones. It takes more than a day to reach the village.”
It seems that the map of this dungeon is only as big as the village. It may also include the forest outside the village. If it is further away, it will definitely be gone, and there will be dangers.
"Then tell me, since this is not a beast or a monster, what on earth did it kill this priest?"
"This..." This question seemed to stump Luke. He remained silent for a while, and finally said hesitantly: "Maybe... a werewolf?"
His tone was full of uncertainty, as if even he himself didn't believe it.
"Maybe?" Li Yan couldn't help but complained crazily in his heart.
Are you not sure yourself? Then what kind of priest do you want to be? Werewolves, witches, and vampires, aren't these the most hated enemies of your Holy See? You don’t know this?
It’s so shameful, quit the group!
Luke hurriedly defended himself and said, "I'm just a monk. I have never seen a werewolf. Although I have read about it in books, Father Marcus also taught me how to distinguish it from the wounds. I also I learned very well, but in fact, this is the first time I have actually encountered someone killed by a werewolf... It must be! It must be a werewolf! It is just like what is recorded in the book!"
Damn it, high scores and low abilities?
"..." Li Yan and the others couldn't help but fell into silence. After a while, they waved to Luke speechlessly: "Forget it, please deal with Mr. Father's body first."
"Oh, okay." Luke nodded in panic and agreed.
After Li Yan and the others finished speaking, they did not intend to leave. They just looked around for any other clues.
Because it seems that Luke is very easy to control and can continue to help them familiarize themselves with the dungeon. Moreover, villagers who have heard the shouts have come to the church one after another. They can also take advantage of the opportunity to dominate and disguise themselves as NPCs. No. Let other players find out.
At this moment, a burst of light caught the attention of Li Yan and the others.
Looking back, I saw that the light was actually emanating from Luke's hand!
Under the surprised gazes of the four people, Luke finally muttered something while a soft white light emitted from his hand, shining on the corpse.
After a while, the light slowly dissipated, but nothing seemed to happen to the body.
Luke took back his hand and gently wiped the sweat on his forehead. It seemed that this glowing spell took a lot of energy from him.
"What is this?" This time, it was Drunk Sword Immortal who asked.
"This is a gift from my god." Luke forced a smile, "This is one of the few spells I know, the purification spell. Father Marcus knew many spells, but now that he has passed away, the village I’m the only one left.”
"Then what does this 'purification technique' do?" Qian Pangpang also asked.
"As long as the corpse dies, it may be resurrected and become a terrifying monster. Especially people killed by werewolves can easily become monsters, but after the purification technique is released, they will not. Of course, for Just in case, it’s better to wrap the body in a shroud and bury it as soon as possible.”
After listening to his description, the four people present understood one thing - Luke was an important figure in this instance.
From his words, it is not difficult to infer that this spell can only be cast by clergy of the Holy See, and as the only monk in the village now, Luke's status is self-evident.
At the very least, Luke is the only one who can cast spells and is not hostile to others.
And with him, Li Yan and others also have the opportunity to follow the plot.
Looking around, I don't know when a group of villagers had gathered outside the church door. They were holding their hands on their chests in a prayer posture. Many villagers were actually kneeling on the dirt road.
Obviously, Luke's spell still has a great influence on these villagers.
Luke hurriedly came to the villagers, first helped the villagers who were kneeling on the ground one by one, and then stood among the villagers and said: "Everyone, with a heavy heart, I want to tell you some bad news. Our respected Maku Father Si was brutally murdered just last night."
As soon as the words came out, the scene fell silent.
After a few seconds, a louder discussion broke out.
"How could it be... Father Marcus, he..." This was the villager who couldn't believe it.
"How could such a kind man like Father Marcus be killed by someone... wu wu wu..." This is the grieving villager.
"Who is it? Who is so cruel? Even people like Father Marcus will be killed!" This is the angry villager.
"Brother Luke, do you know who killed Father Marcus?" Someone asked at the right time.
As if affected by the atmosphere of the scene, Luke's voice was choked: "I'm sorry, I have no way of knowing who the murderer is."
"Alas..." A sigh suddenly came from the scene.
"But Father Marcus seems to have been killed by a werewolf." Luke said slowly while wiping his tears.
