56. Infiltrate the investigation
The old bishop's divination showed that the historian named Sandru was currently in the northwest of the city of Innocence, near a place called the Ruins Excavation, about 50 kilometers away from the city.
Farther to the northwest, there is a huge wasteland known as the 'Divine Forsaken Ruins', which is very vast, and it extends all the way north to the vicinity of the extremely cold ice field, which hides countless secrets and dangers, and humans have not been able to get a glimpse of its full picture so far.
This excavation site is only the outermost and most marginal area of the God's Forsaken Ruins, which is relatively safe, so it has attracted many archaeologists, explorers, and people in the archaeological field such as the Golden Captain.
Gallo arrived at the site offered by the old bishop at ten o'clock in the evening, not in the excavation site, but on the edge of the city, beside a pretty little lake, and near a secluded grove and a villa.
In this kind of place, someone actually built a villa?
Although it is surrounded by mountains and rivers here, the scenery is pleasant, but next to it is the dangerous and mysterious ruins of the gods, who knows if there will be some cow ghosts and snake gods suddenly sprang out of it and took people away?
It is also because of the location of the God's forsaken ruins that even the farther away in the city of innocence has the lowest land prices in the north and west, where only the poor live, and the rich and middle class live in the south and east.
"Sure enough, there are ghosts, even I don't live in such a place."
Gallo found a hidden hillside nearby and crouched down, and activated the magic spell: Insight, to observe the villa from a distance.
Sure enough, the inside is full of greenery, which complements the scenery outside, and this is a cult stronghold at all!
"What filth! How wicked! No wonder they are not afraid of the monsters that pop up in the ruins, because they are demons and monsters themselves! ”
"I really want to activate the Heavenly Punishment Holy Sword and serve a pot inside! But no, I'm a person who knows what to do, and I have to find out the conspiracy and purpose of this cultist first. ”
"It's better to wait for dark and sneak in, although I am a priest, my attainments in infiltration have been perfected."
Gallo muttered to himself, lay down on the back of the hillside, and pulled out of his bosom for today's dinner.
Now that life has changed and there is money in his pocket, then life can be a little more luxurious, and there is no need to gnaw potatoes, so Gallo's dinner today is a sandwich.
This was made for him by the old bishop, not made by the little milk cat, and the meat inside was also fried fragrant beef, not the meat of the little milk cat.
Gallo ate slowly, patiently waiting for dark, while Amiya, the puppet who came with him, sat on the ground in a duck sitting position, and carefully stretched out two fingers as thick as a child's arm, trying to catch a grasshopper hiding in the grass.
After dark, Gallo put on the skullcrusher outfit and said to Amiya:
"I'll go in first, you wait and see outside, remember to act when the opportunity comes."
Amiya didn't answer, I don't know if I understood or not.
Gallo then walked in the direction of the villa.
But halfway through, he turned back and looked helplessly at the puppet following him.
It stumbled over its massive body, its arms curled up, trying to mimic the human tiptoeing and following Gallo.
"Didn't I tell you to wait and see what happens?"
Amiya's eyes lit up, as if she didn't understand...
"Forget it, since you want to follow, then watch well, study hard, and remember to look at my face and act."
Gallo said, and blessed Amiya with a few more magic spells, making her voice softer.
This kind of magic that is convenient for hiding and stealth, Garo hasn't heard of any other sect at the moment, and he doesn't know which type of magic it should be divided into, in short, it's not a healing department.
I don't know where the old bishop came from, but I really feel sorry for the pastors of other churches, and I can't even sneak...
Gallo took Amiya all the way to sneak close to the courtyard wall outside the villa, and suddenly turned over with a sudden force under his feet.
Amiya couldn't jump, so she continued to maintain that sneaky posture, and directly slammed into the courtyard wall and crept in...
The movement of breaking through the courtyard wall naturally attracted the attention of the guards.
"Something seems wrong?"
"Who is it?"
Oops, it was discovered so quickly, I knew I shouldn't have brought Amiya with me, it was too big a target, and its actions were too rough!
Gallo couldn't help but regret a little.
But the two guards, armed with spears, rushed straight towards him and asked sharply:
"Who are you? Why trespass on a private residence? ”
"Wow! Why is your mule so big? ”
"Alas, since it was discovered, there is no way, you forced me!"
Gallo said, snapping his fingers twice in succession, and said aloud:
"Repent of your sins!"
The faces of the two guards suddenly distorted, their eyes gradually became confused, their bodies were shrouded in a faint white light, and they slowly knelt down to the ground.
But a green mist suddenly gushed out of their bodies, confronting the white light.
"Why don't you repent of your sins and embrace a new life?"
Gallo said in confusion, snapping his fingers a few more times.
The white light on the guard's body suddenly flourished, suppressing the green mist in an instant, and the faces of the two gradually became calm and peaceful.
In the next second, their heads exploded suddenly, scattering yellow, red, and white all over the ground, as if shattering the dye vat.
"Although you resist repentance, you are still somewhat enlightened, and you know that you are living in the world without shame, and you have chosen to cut yourself off..."
Gallo muttered under his breath.
Although the two guards were successfully resolved, the movement that could be tossed was enough to arouse the vigilance of others.
Bursts of exclamations suddenly sounded in the villa:
"Allah, Allah, Allah!"
"There are invaders! Get ready for battle! Protect Lord Sandru! ”
"There were only two intruders... Oh no, just one man and a mule! ”
With a burst of exclamations, more than a hundred guards came out of this villa, which didn't look very big, and surrounded Gallo and Amiya in layers.
And in addition to conventional weapons such as spears and machetes, there are actually people with heavy crossbows and even heavy armor!
As we all know, heavy crossbows and heavy armor are all military products, but they are not available to civilian guards, and normal people will not carry more than a hundred guards at any time.
Seeing that Gallo was already a turtle in an urn and could not escape, the owner of the villa, the historian Andrew, appeared on the balcony on the second floor of the villa under the protection of two mages wearing magic robes and holding magic staffs.
