The candle light in the cabin in the Black Mist World was still dim, and Bernie's cheeks were in a trance.

In fact, at this time, his entire "body" was also in a trance.

That's because the gray smoke on his body continued to rise and spread, and then melted into the depths of the surrounding space.

Overall, it is as if an ice sculpture has been melted by the heat emitted by the candle and slowly wafts out water vapor.

In the process, some trivial sounds appeared outside the wooden house, and many scarlet eyes were born at the window.

That's the watchful eye of monsters from the outside.

However, although they looked very strange and terrifying, none of them dared to set foot in the wooden house.

Even when Bernie finished the inscription and glanced over, those peeping eyes quickly scattered and disappeared as if they had seen some terrifying beast.

Bernie wasn't surprised.

In fact, there is no fixed image of his current spiritual body.

In Bernie's mind, his current image is no different from his body in reality, but in the eyes of other beings, it is not like that......

He didn't bother to pay attention to the small characters outside, and after "breathing a sigh of relief", he looked at the black book on the desk in front of him.

At this time, on the skin of this black book with a slight silver vein, a strange mouth has been quietly born with the completion of the previous branding.

The mouth is generally indistinguishable from the lips of a human, except that the color is eerily pure black, with no teeth, and the inside is as dark and deep as a black hole, and there is no other substance in sight.

And as Bernie watched, the strange black mouth continued to open and close, and the corners of the mouth twitched occasionally, as if full of hunger and pain.

After a few glances, Bernie took out a clear glass jar from the shelf behind him, and then clamped out the soaked and mutilated "little devil" inside the jar.

"Ah...... Where are you going to cut me off again? ”

The little devil was awake, still smiling flatteringly after being fished out of the jar.

But the lack of eyes makes it impossible to detect what it is like at the moment.

"Don't worry, I won't cut you this time."

Bernie said as he handed it to the black mouth on the cover of the black book, and just as the little devil was weeping in gratitude to Bernie, the mouth suddenly tilted, and he grabbed it directly, and slammed it into his mouth.

Like a living loach, the little black man was swallowed smoothly by a mouth darker than it without the slightest struggle, and then encountered a cruel chewing.

The little devil let out a terrible scream, but because of its black mouth and lack of teeth, it didn't seem to be hurt.

It's just that it is squeezed and constantly tumbling and twisting, as if it has been thrown into a drum washing machine.

Through the gap between the opening and closing of his mouth, Bernie could see what it was facing.

And as time passed, he could also hear the other person's voice gradually weakening.

Until it finally disappeared completely.

A spitting sound followed from the mouth.

I saw that the little devil who was eaten in his mouth was spit out by this mouth again, and rolled and collapsed on the surface of the desk next to his mouth, and his weak appearance looked extremely pitiful.

Bernie poked the other man, and there was some instinctive response, but there was no spirituality to speak of.

Or rather, it has lost its "soul".

Bernie then put the "vegetative man" back in the glass jar and looked at the black book.

After ingesting a demonic soul, the mouth on the surface of the Black Book remained unchanged as before.

But when Bernie turned the page, the original title page had been replaced with other words—

You have gained the Demon Language (Mastery)

……

You have obtained Hell: City of Pain Geography (Mastery)

……

You have obtained three Dark Ritual frameworks (Cursed, Polluted, and Scourge)

……

You have gained Pure Demon Souls x1

……

You gain base Spiritual Power X100

……

You've got ......

……

Obviously, this mouth did not devour the soul of the little demon, but decomposed its soul.

This was somewhat unexpected.

This mouth is an evolution of the sequence in the player's body that corresponds to devouring the possessed soul.

Bernie inscribed it in the hope that it would be used to try to create an ability to digest flesh, and then use the dissected demonic organs.

He didn't expect much from its own abilities.

Because in Bernie's view, devouring other spiritual forces to increase his own "strength" is a move that will take effect in a short period of time, but it is destined to have many troubles.

Most of them can be used to cultivate cannon fodder, and even to train subordinates needs to be considered.

As for using it on oneself, it is absolutely impossible.

The reason is simple, the soul and even the spirituality represent the "existence" of a living being itself, and if someone devours this "existence", then the person's existence is destined to become extremely "complex", and the personality is therefore light.

As a result, I didn't expect that the ability evolved by this rune sequence turned out to be a decomposition ......

Touching his chin thoughtfully, Bernie did not continue to study the mouth, nor did he continue to stay in the black fog world, but returned to reality.

It's still early in the morning, and Bernie, who was lying on the bed, couldn't help but yawn when he opened his eyes.

Then he turned his head to look out the window.

The thick morning fog shrouded the streets and buildings outside, and some early birds squatted on the trees and chirped, dotting the old city after the rain and the sunny days were full of tranquility and leisure.

Under Bernie's bed, a turtle collapses motionless in a wooden crate on its back, representing the player's disconnection.

In the other rooms outside the bedroom, there is no other player.

The reason, of course, is that the church's top brass transferred the key witness.

In fact, despite the fact that many important evidences were presented, the "old count" was about to face the punishment of the Church, because his sins could not be easily forgiven.

It's just that because of his cooperation and contributions, this punishment will not involve the status and interests of the Cambore family.

But this is clearly not what someone is expecting.

However, since yesterday, these two players have not been online, so they don't know this outcome for the time being......

Getting up and donning his black robe, "washing his face" with the light from his face, and brushing his teeth in the rudimentary methods of the old world, Bernie then stepped out of the room.

Today is a special day because the appointment of Acting Father Bernie has been handed down.

Not only him, but there were also some surrogate priests in other churches in Nerham, and they were very fast.

This is very normal, after all, the daily teaching affairs urgently need someone to maintain and preside, otherwise the already turbulent Neuham will be even more chaotic.

So Bernie needs to take on the responsibilities and work of a priest today.

However, before going to the church, Bernie went to the neighbor's house and gave the cuckold man one last treatment, who had regained his senses.

……

The warm light soothed the emaciated young man lying on the bed, and then in the face of Bernie's gaze, he said sincerely, "I will surrender, Deacon Bernie, for the sins I have committed. ”

After experiencing the triple blow of being green, having no way to appeal, and being seriously ill, he seems to really have the heart to repent.

But he apparently didn't know that just one day later, Bernie had been promoted from a deacon to a priest.

"It was the right decision."

Bernie nodded, "As long as you repent, God will forgive the sins of your soul, and the door of heaven will remain open to you." ”

"But before I can do that, I still have to accuse that bastard of Bazel for not only playing with my wife, but also insulting the glory of my family."

Baron Herbert said firmly: "I must ask the church to investigate and even punish him. Yes, I will do so, at the same time as I go to surrender! ”

"You're right, Hobert." Bernie reassured him, "But what I need to tell you is that Bazel has been hunted by the Church for his greed and is currently on the run. ”

These words made the other party stunned, and after being stunned for a long time, he suddenly laughed, and as a result, he couldn't help coughing painfully because of physical fatigue.

"That's really...... I didn't expect it, Bazel he, he ......"

As he spoke, he suddenly tugged at Bernie's sleeve as if he had thought of something.

"There must be a secret in Kittstown, Kittstown, Deacon Bernie! I once stalked Bazel, using some dark tricks, and found him sneaking away several times to a deserted cemetery near Kittstown, and then disappearing! ”

"A deserted cemetery?" Bernie was stunned.

He didn't think that Bazel would choose to stay in Neuham or even the Land of Glory after the incident, he thought that Bazel had already smuggled out of the continent.

But since Bazel had been to the cemetery several times before him, there must have been something in it that he or the man behind him cared about.

That's a point to take advantage of......

"Yes, an old-looking abandoned cemetery."

Baron Hobert continued: "No one in Kitts Town can tell the age of the cemetery, but it is said that there are occasional peculiar noises in it. ”

Bernie nodded thoughtfully.

"Thank you for the clues, Hobert, I think it will make it easier for us to track down Bazel's whereabouts."

"I'm very much looking forward to the day he is arrested." The Cuckold Baron replied, "Although, perhaps, at that time, I had been burned to death by the Church for my past wicked deeds. ”

This is equivalent to going to church to confess that he once took refuge in the devil, and Bernie heard a little strange when he heard this.

He felt as if the other party had been hit too hard...... Is there something in it that you don't understand?

secretly guessed that on the surface, Bernie couldn't say anything because he "didn't know" the real details of the other party, but only comforted him.

"Your sins are not necessarily punished so severely, Hobert, it is far more doctrinal and meaningful for the church to forgive a sinner and let him spend the rest of his life to atone for his sins than to burn a penitent."

"Do you want to make up for it with the rest of your life......" Baron Hobert was silent when he heard this, and his will seemed to be a little shaken because of this, and even his expression was a little struggling.

However, Bernie ignored the next thought, and after some instructions, he walked away from his neighbor's family and walked in the direction of Morse Church.

As he walked, Bernie pondered the clue he had just gotten.

The plan against Bazel has reached another stage, and the key figures have also moved from Bazel to others.

This man was Bazel's father, the Vice-Bishop of Jerome in the Rowland Islands.

Since Bazel was not caught, there is no clue that Jerome was involved in Bazel's smuggling of holy water.

In addition, the illegitimate child is just a secret statement, and there is no clue on the surface to prove that there is a connection between Bazel and Jerome.

There were also people at the top of the church who were exerting influence, so Vice-Bishop Jerome was not too affected by this incident.

It's just that it's inevitable to be pointed at.

But being pointed at is not enough, Bernie needs him to feel the difficulties even further.

So you need to target him with some other behavior.

How to target, Bernie didn't have much idea before.

Or rather, he doesn't think he needs to think much about it, because he has a potential ally.

Bernie expected that the wouldn't need to look for clues himself, and that potential ally would naturally send them to the door.

So he wasn't in a hurry about it before.

But the news he got from the cuckold just now made him can't help but have some "itchy hands"......

However, how to act on this is a question that needs to be considered.

Thinking so, Bernie suddenly noticed something unusual out of the corner of his eye.

Looking down, he noticed that a shell lang was slowly passing by at his feet, and the Chinese characters floating on the door of his head made Bernie immediately recognize that it was a player.

At the same time, information is constantly emerging from the player's head-

"The location in the post is very clear, but I can't read, how can I find Oak Street?"

"You don't know how to read, you always know, right? Keep an eye on the big troops, and there must be other players going to find that NPC. ”

"But I've been walking around for a long time and I haven't seen any other players, have I?"

"How many players are online so early, you should be able to see them after six o'clock."

"Then I'll upgrade first."

"Buy a golden apple, it's going to be a quick upgrade."

"Do you still spend money playing games? I'm not going to do it. ”

"Okay...... It doesn't matter if you can stand eating for more than a week. But don't forget to find that NPC when you level up. ”

"I can't forget it, don't worry."

"Well, there's no need to be too anxious, you can't take the task or anything at the moment, and the plot on the NPC doesn't necessarily start when it starts, so it's a matter of brushing up on the favorability first. The main direction is still to level up, and after reaching level ten, you don't have to play this animal simulator anymore. ”

"I know, I'll tell you when I find him."

With that, the shell passed by Bernie's feet as if no one else had done so, and finally turned a slow corner, and his back disappeared into Oak Street.
