Chapter 167: Discovery!
After going around in a circle, I finally returned to the church of the Holy Axe Society.
Led by Calder, they passed through the antechamber, through the side nave, and then through an iron door, walked down a spiraling staircase of unknown depth, and finally pushed open an iron door.
"It's best not to use your probing abilities here. This will get you into trouble. Calder reminded.
Then he was the first to walk in.
Dolan followed him closely.
In fact, this kind of affairs should have been done by Dolan, but he had just taken office, and with the unexpected death of his predecessor Dolan, he didn't know a lot of things very clearly, so Calder had to come in person.
Calder's words were taken to heart by Weiyang, and the idea of using mental power to detect was dispelled. Then the group followed Calder and the others inside. The underground space is very large, but it looks like a tree hole or an underground cave formed naturally, and it is full of strange beauty.
"Welcome to the Wizarding Council, Father Dolan, the thirty-seventh Father of the Holy Axe Society, and Calder, and may peace last forever."
Seven men and women dressed in black spoke at the same time. Then, their eyes fell on the five of them.
"These are ......"
Calder walked over to a stone table, then took out the griffin fairy grass and pen in his arms and put them on it, and then said, "These are exorcists from Middle-earth. ”
After hearing Calder's words, the high-ranking members of these Holy Axe Society all turned their eyes on Weiyang and them, and then nodded slightly, and then retracted their gaze and put it on the things that Calder had taken out.
Dolan spoke up, "The defendant's name is Eric. Le Masnier, accused of the murder of the thirty-sixth Father Doran, is on the table and is the evidence we have found. In addition, he was killed on the spot for attacking Calder, and these were the same people who assisted Calder. Dolan stretched out his hand and gestured to them.
One of the seven women listened to Dolan's words, then took a deck of tarot cards from the person next to her, drew five and placed them on the stone table, and then turned them all over one by one.
The pattern of these tarot cards after turning over is something that Weiyang has never seen, it looks like a black sun, a head that looks like something printed on the front and back, a blood-colored card like a woman, a card with six portraits painted on it, and the last one looks like a terrain, with mountains, rivers and sun, but the tone looks gray and dark, which is very unreal.
The woman looked at it from beginning to end and said, "There are no five-pointed stars and three cards here, so it is clear that he is acting alone." ”
However, her words made Calder frown and retorted, "You miscalculated. Look, he's using a transformation spell, which I haven't seen in eight hundred years, and the last time I used it was when the Great Witch was there. ”
The Great Witch
These are three sensitive words
The woman who turned over the tarot cards said loudly, "The Great Witch has been dead for too long, and her witchcraft is impossible even if she wants to resurrect her." ”
"Is it really impossible!" Calder suddenly approached, shouting at her loudly and solemnly.
In normal times, Calder might not talk like this to the high-ranking members of the Holy Axe Society, but it was about the Great Witch, and there was some uneasiness in his heart, so he would have such an outburst.
Among them, Weiyang can be the culprit of Calder's mood change.
"No way!" The woman's gaze was fixed on him, unquestionable.
Just when the two were at a stalemate, no one noticed that the pen on the table suddenly moved, and its cap was gently twisted open, revealing a gap the size of a soybean, and then a pair of wings stretched out from it.
A fly?!
It fluttered its wings, and after scanning its surroundings for a moment, it landed on the woman's body and flew silently towards her.
As if to ease the somewhat awkward atmosphere at the scene, Dolan said, "I think we have the right to turn over the city, and ...... when the time comes."
But Don't interrupt Dolan's words. The woman stretched out her hand, then put away the five tarot cards on the table one by one, and said, "My divination will not be wrong." ”
At this moment, Calder's face suddenly turned stunned, and then solemnly bypassed the stone table and came to the woman, and without hesitation, he stretched out his hand and grabbed her.
Calder's action startled the woman, who looked defensive, and at the same time leaned back, dodging Calder's hand.
But Weiyang, who was watching from the sidelines, saw that Calder's attention was not on the woman at all, but on the fly crawling above her shoulder, a fly much larger than normal!
Calder's hand caught the fly between his fingers.
The woman saw it too, her brow furrowed, knowing that she had misunderstood Calder. But now she cares more about what this thing is in Calder's hands!
"What is this......"
Calder thought as if he hadn't heard the woman's voice, and suddenly, as if he had thought of something, the whole person quickly turned around and strode out of here.
Dolan was a little overwhelmed, and explained in a hurry: "He may have found something, I'll follow him, and I'll tell you at any time if there's news...... That's ......"
Dolan finished and ran after Calder.
The protagonists are gone, and Weiyang has no reason to stay here, and after bowing to the high-level leaders of the Holy Axe Society present, they also left quickly.
Calder walked out of the underground space and went up to the second floor of the church without stopping. Then, after finding the room where the body of the previous Doran was parked, he pushed the door open and walked in.
The room was large, but most of the surrounding space was lit with candles, and the room was illuminated by the glow of candlelight, and a brown coffin was placed in the center of the room.
Calder walked over to the coffin and reached out to push the upper part of the segmented coffin upward, revealing the old man lying peacefully in it.
Calder looked at him and said, "Hello, kid......"
"Calder, what did you find?"
At this time, Weiyang and they also walked in.
"Some conjectures that need to be confirmed." Calder said, then turned and walked over to the menorah, picking up an unused candle. Immediately afterwards, he took out a bag of gray cloth bag-like things rolled up from his bosom and spread them out on the table.
All the tools in the cloth bag suddenly appeared in Weiyang's field of vision.
"Is this going to be witchcraft?" Zhang Heng was inexplicably a little excited, witchcraft, this is the first time he has seen people use it on the spot, it should be amazing!
As for why Zhang Heng thought Calder was using witchcraft, it was because he saw the strange patterns carved on the tool, like carvings.
"It's not witchcraft ......"
