vs 24 Bloodstained Letters

"Forgive me, my dear bishop, for my abruptness and absurdity, I know you must be troubled, but you must help me.

I know...... Something strange, something evil, happened. It must have been so, he whispered in my ear, he tempted me to fall into the abyss, a force pulled me, and I couldn't help myself......

Listen to the Bishop, I am only a little tailor, and I was an ignorant and fearless young man when I inherited this ancestral house—I had heard of the ominousness of this house for a long time, but ignorance had blinded me, and now it was time to regret it. Recently, there have been a lot of strange things going on around the town, and I think it might have something to do with this house. Someone disappeared because of him, yes, I'm not alarmist, just two hours ago.

Know the Schubert brothers? Yes, it was the poor homeless brothers. Two hours ago I had entertained them with a modest dinner, and they had paid with their lives for it—that wasn't my intention, I just wanted them to help guard the shop so I could have a tryst with Anna. I love her very much, even though she is just a flower girl. But by the time I had returned to the shop from my time with Anna, the brothers were gone......

What's even more frightening is that the small door of the attic is opened, and there is no doubt that the legendary demon is reaching out to the human world. I've searched all over the town and I can't find Schubert, so the poor brothers must have died in the mouth of the devil......

Bishop, as I write these things, I can feel that evil forces have begun to invade my body, and may the great Lord of the Dawn bless the poor descendants of the Embers. Oh no, oh no...... He's coming!

……”

The short words on the letter paper made Duran look cold, and the large blood stains were like the devil's grin, indicating the power of evil.

"Peron, it turned out to be a tailor." Duran put away the letter, and looked up at the small flag diagonally planted in the attic—it turned out to be the sign of the tailor's shop.

The letter appears to have been written by the tailor Peron before the accident and was intended to be addressed to the archbishop of the town, but no matter what happened in between, it was apparently not sent - perhaps not even finished, and the last few lines were scribbled with the words "Oh no...... He's coming! "It's even more unpredictable.

Could it be that the devil had approached Perón when he was writing this letter?

The answer remains a mystery.

The cold wind blew through the street corners, and the low whistling sound was incessant, and if you were nervous, you might be scared that the demon in the envelope had escaped.

It took three seconds for Duran to calm his mind, and he paced back and forth in front of the locked door, pondering the blood-stained letter.

"It's rare to have so much information available to me at the beginning of a mission, and even though most of it is useless, I know that I am invincible. The cost of an amethyst made me realize that the mission objective is divided into three parts, two ghosts playing soy sauce, Beron's wraith, and a headless girl. Combined with the content of the letter, it is easy to deduce that the two ghosts should be the first to be harmed by the Schubert brothers, and the headless girl is most likely the flower seller mentioned in the letter...... "Duran tapped his temples lightly, it is clear that the House of Peron has a long history, it is the ancestral home of the Belon family, and it seems that there has always been a legend about the demon hidden in the ancestral house.

If what the letter says is true, then Peron and the flower girl return to the tailor's shop after their tryst, and find that the Schubert brothers have disappeared, and the door to the mysterious attic has been opened...... All these clues are connected, and Duran can easily come to such a conclusion.

"Peron's ability to live here for so long proves that even if there are demons, there are forces that limit what he can do. And the Schubert brothers may have violated some taboo to release the demon...... To be a little more conjectural, judging from the font and tone, Perón seems to be particularly fearful and in awe of the attic on the second floor, which shows that it is very likely that two homeless men inadvertently opened the secrets in the attic, thus incurring disaster...... The only thing that's a little strange is, why is the door locked? ”

If all the creatures in the Belon family are controlled by the forces of evil, then there is no reason why this door should be locked tightly.

And the appearance of this letter here is quite strange, as if someone deliberately put the letter paper in the crack of the door.

"Could it be that there are people in the Belon family who are sane and want to pass on the message in this way? To call for help? Duran couldn't help but shake his head, such an idea may be ridiculous, but it may not be impossible. Although the Village of Bones has now become a place of death, Duran is not sure of the chronological order between the supernatural events that occurred in the House of Peron and the evil transformation of the Village of Bones.

"Anyway, you'll have to get into this room first." Duran put the letter away properly, and since the front was inaccessible, he had to try something else.

The area of the village of bones is quite large, and there is still a relatively large separation between the houses in the town. Duran walked around the House of Belon and easily spotted a small door on the side. The alleys were littered with all sorts of garbage, and every now and then a few tenacious rats slipped under Duran's feet - these filthy things were sure to be annoying in the past, but in this environment, Duran suddenly felt that these rats became much more pleasing to the eye.

Aren't they undead?

Duran gripped the oak thorn tightly, the bronze dagger had long been beaten into the cold palace by him, the former can deal 200% actual damage to undead creatures, and its effect in a place like the evil land is comparable to a small artifact.

A large cloud of dust shook off the side door of the "squeak......, and Duran gently pushed open a corner, revealing that there was still a dim light inside.

This discovery is really not good news, there is no day but night in the village of bones, and it sounds like a good thing to have lights, but Duran would rather hide in the dark, even if he loses a lot of vision.

Darkness is the greatest cover for stealth.

Duran didn't dare to slack off, and the moment he stepped through the side door, he launched a stealth operation.

Duran wasn't sure if the ghosts would be able to see through his stealth, but there was no better way at this time, so he had to bite the bullet and enter the House of Peron.

"Smack!"

A breeze blew, and Duran had barely stepped in five steps before the side door was closed tightly.

Duran wiped a sweat from his sweat, and he walked slowly and cautiously against the wall in the direction of the lamplight. Architecturally, there is a wide hall not far behind the side door, and a spiral staircase leading to the second floor on the right-hand side.

"That place just now should be the kitchen."

Duran finally touched the hall, and vaguely saw white candles lit on the stands on both sides, and the sound of conversation came from the depths of the hall.

Duran tensed his whole body and approached quietly, he hid behind a pillar and peeked at it—

On the sofa in the depths of the hall, there were actually two people sitting!

The two men were tall, but they were ragged and unkempt, and Duran couldn't see their faces from a distance.

The two of them sank their tall bodies deep into the couch, and the conversation was staccato and staccatory.

Duran pricked up his ears, trying to hear what they were saying, but it was too far away to hear only a few fragmentary sounds.

"The language of the Ember people...... They seem to be grabbing something. ”

It is well known that the earliest humans on the continent of Fernan were the Anzedi and the Yushen people. The Anzedi people who live in the north worship the god of witches, while the Ember people in the south are faithful followers of the Lord of the Dawn. The language of the Yu Ember and the Anzedi people are not the same, and they do not even have a common surname.

Later, time flies, history changes, and the human lingua franca formed on the continent of Faynan today is based on the language of the ancient Ember people, so Duran can barely understand the language of the Ember people.

To Duran's confusion, it was clear from the bloodstained letter that the inhabitants of the Village of Bones were supposed to be followers of the Lord of the Dawn before they became evil, and that Beron claimed to be a descendant of the Ember people, and now the two strange men were talking in the language of the Ember people—a terrible thought suddenly came to Duran's mind.

Could it be that the Evil Land was a part of the Fernand Continent a long, long time ago?

As soon as the thought came to him, Duran became more and more convinced of it. A lot of evidence seems to point in this direction, the Village of Bones, a sadly evil place, has a very close connection to many cultures on the continent of Fernan, especially the Ember and the Church of Dawn.

Duran's heart moved, and in order to hear more clearly, he carefully changed a pillar and moved closer.

This time, he finally heard the conversation between the two clearly:

"Hey, don't rob me, I want his eyeballs, yes, a pair of eyeballs are mine!"

"Boy, you seem to have forgotten who is the elder brother and who is the younger brother! Eyeballs are an adult's favorite sacrifice, and they should be mine! ”

"Okay, I can give you his eyeballs, but you have to have me cut out the lobes of his lungs...... You know, I love that thing. ”

"It doesn't matter, as long as you take a step back, then everything is negotiable......"

Duran shuddered - what were they discussing? Eyeballs, lung lobes?

"These two guys are really not good things, are they the ghosts of the pair of homeless brothers?" Duran clung to the stone pillar and slowly turned to the side behind him—

However, in the next second, a human face with hollow eyes and a pale complexion appeared in front of him, and the strange nose was raised high, almost touching Duran's face.

"Hey boy, your eyeballs are my ......"
