Chapter 31: Holiness in the Midst of Filth
"Click. Bang! As Ying Ao expected, as soon as he held the handle of the door, the gate broke away from the door frame and smashed in front of Ying Ao.
"Well, I have a hunch that the contents will surprise me greatly." Ying Ao felt the sudden and violent fluctuations and took out his Yi Feng halberd from the Qiankun bag: a faint smell of blood came from the dimly lit abandoned hut.
In view of the strength of that energy fluctuation is no less than that of Ying Ao, Ying Ao carefully walked into the dim hut with the Yi Feng halberd, the first floor is a living room + kitchen, rotten furniture, broken glass shards, thick dust, and cobwebs everywhere prove that this room should have been abandoned for a long time.
And judging from the situation on the first floor, the second floor should be about the same, if it weren't for the faint smell of blood, Ying Ao might have turned around and left, after all, the fluctuation of light energy did not match the information that Konstantin said.
Ignoring the rotten smell coming from the hut, Ying Ao walked up the stairs, and the smell of blood came from upstairs.
The staircase is naturally wooden, and every time he walks up a step, the wooden staircase will emit an overwhelming squeak, which makes Ying Ao wonder if he will directly collapse the stairs if he weighs a few more pounds?
Walking into the second floor, the entire second floor is divided into two parts, one is the staircase dining room where Ying Ao is located, and the other should be the bedroom.
Ying Ao found that compared to the rotten and dilapidated first floor, although the second floor is better, but it is not much better, it is also dusty, the only thing that is better than the first floor is that the furniture here does not exude a rotten smell like the first floor.
However, Ying Ao couldn't help frowning when he looked at the bedroom door in front of him, and unfolded Yi Feng's halberd: the bedroom door was closed at this time, and unlike the other furniture in the house, this bedroom door was intact, and the smell of blood was stronger than when he was downstairs.
"I hope I guessed wrong......" Ying Ao sighed, looking at the current situation......
He could already be sure that the altar was in the bedroom in front of him, and the thing summoned by this ritual was not the monster that Constantine thought, the monster usually had a strong negative energy, and if it was a monster, it should also smell of sulfur, but now he only smelled blood.
The summoning ritual should have ended, and it should be some kind of light creature that has been summoned.
That intense wave of light energy was brought about by him or it.
"The most primitive light originates from the deepest darkness, and the most brilliant divine is often born out of the most filthy darkness...... Sure enough, it's an angel. But why do angels use this ritual...... Could it be that someone has obtained the secret method of the Church of Light? After Ying Ao kicked the bedroom door open, she saw the scene in the bedroom:
Compared to the rest of the cabin, the bedroom was very clean, not even a little dust, in the center of the bedroom was a small altar, the ground around the altar was a magic circle drawn with blood, and in all four directions of the magic circle were placed a basin of bloody, disgusting internal organs, and the ceiling of the bedroom was blasted out of a huge hole by an unknown force.
Around the altar is an angel feather, and it can be seen that the angel seems to have struggled violently before being controlled by the other party.
"Damn, trouble. Albert, inform Jocelyn and Constantine that I have found an angel with the lowest two wings and the highest four wings summoned by a secret ritual of the Church, and that the hapless birdman has been controlled. "The light energy sensed/detected by Ying Ao and Albert was produced by these angel feathers.
"Understood." Albert also knew that this was not trivial, and immediately went to inform him: since the other party can summon one angel, is it impossible to summon and enslave more angels?
Ying Ao touched the magic array on the ground, the blood used to draw the magic array had dried up, because of the existence of angel feathers, those flies that smelled blood did not enter this bedroom.
"He must have come in through the window and then set up the altar for the ritual, and there was no dust because the angel came and would have removed all the dust, but why didn't the furniture have any decay? After completing the enslavement contract, he flew away from here with the angel who had successfully enslaved......" Ying Ao frowned, this matter is not easy to do, even if the angel is a two-winged angel, he can't fight it.
And the other party may have more than one angel in his hand, which makes it a headache to think about.
"Ying Ao, Jocelyn's call: I said that you are not the legendary Grim Reaper schoolboy? Wherever you go, something will happen, and you can encounter this kind of strange incident by going to Constantine, but if this spreads, the old face of the Church of Light will be disgraced. Jocelyn gloated.
"Okay, you know what I want to ask you." Ying Ao interrupted angrily.
"I just checked, the original owner of your house has been missing for more than a year, but according to my intelligence network, he is not missing at all, the person you and Konstantin are looking for is him, he seems to have obtained some treasure at a black market auction, and was hunted down by others. In order to avoid his pursuers, he disguised his home as such. By the way, he seems to have had the bedroom not 'existed' two days ago because the treasure could be arranged with something akin to illusion. That is, no one noticed that there was a bedroom there. Jocelyn sat in his office and looked through the materials that had just been brought up.
"The treasure he got is actually an ancient book lost by the Church of Light?" Ying Ao guessed.
"It may be, it may not, it doesn't matter. Do you want to continue to investigate this matter? The winged angel is not easy to deal with, although it is an enslaved two-winged angel. If you want me to tell me that if you leak this news directly, other forces will naturally laugh at the Church of Light and send someone to dispose of that 'lucky one'. Jocelyn asked.
"Do you remember the rules of our witchers?" Ying Ao asked rhetorically.
"As I guessed you'd say, I've locked down that hapless birdman, but his location is interesting, right in the Midnight Club in Lodo." Qiao Celin was not surprised to hear Ying Ao's rhetorical question.
"Huh? Interesting, I'll take a look. By the way, send a few people to poke everything out here, I think our dear arbiter must have a rich expression after learning the news. Ying Ao imagined the expression of the arbiter after learning the truth, but unfortunately he couldn't see it with his own eyes.
"No, no, no, it's not just the arbiter, De Saka's face will definitely be richer than the arbiter. Haha......" Jocelyn laughed and hung up the communication.
Ying Ao put away all the angel feathers, the 'lucky one' probably didn't care about these falling feathers because he already had a whole angel, it seemed that something strange was running closer, a birdman......
Shaking his head, Ying Ao put the cloth bag containing more than a dozen angel feathers into the Qiankun bag.
Although these things can't be used by themselves, they can be sold to wizards and magicians, and even the Dark Church has a great interest in Angel Feather.
