The deeper you go into the castle, the more depressing the sound of the wind and rain outside becomes, and gradually, the roar of the thunderous face dissipates. The appearance in the church is almost the same, Mu Tianyu still vaguely remembers this familiar picture, the stone statues of the gods engraved on the stone walls on both sides, as if they were staring at themselves, feeling a little uncomfortable. He hurried forward, and soon heard a conversation coming from the secret room ahead.

The old man sitting in the rocking chair was dressed in a black robe, he was over seventy years old, but his bones were still strong, and he had a pair of special eyes, glowing with a faint blue-blue luster. He who had been sitting on the chair stood up, nodded to the woman in black who was walking towards him, and said, "Miss Situ, I haven't seen you for a few days, don't come unharmed." ”

"Father."

"Eh, it's just a name for believers, you don't have to be restricted." The old man looked at the woman in front of him, in the dim candlelight, even more charming, after all, he had seen the world, and read countless people, and he also smiled and sighed: "More than 20 years ago, when I was not qualified for the position of missionary, I was fortunate to meet an elder of the Situ family, and it was thanks to his great love that he gave me a rare holy weapon to embark on the path of missionary. It's a pity that the senior didn't leave his name, and even if I wanted to pray for him day and night the day after tomorrow, there was nothing I could do. He sighed, the spiritual power exuded by Situ Xinyue in front of him was not trivial, and he also smiled: "The Situ family is worthy of being one of the three major families of exorcism, it is really terrifying." ”

"Father, you're serious." Situ Xinyue is still very respectful, the position of missionary is very rare among psychics, they are not only spiritually powerful, but also have a very high consciousness, they are the only people in the mortal world who can communicate directly with the temple spirits. "Father, I have come today because I have an important matter to reveal."

The old man's eyes twitched slightly, and he said, "Sit down." So saying, he sat down on the chaise longue again, as if he were a little sleepy.

Situ Xinyue sat on the wooden chair next to her and said softly: "The bounty hunter has appeared, and I saw it with my own eyes, and it is in Tiandu. "I thought the old man would be surprised, because the Holy Lord said that missionaries could not join the bounty alliance, and even decided that the mission church would never accept psychics related to the bounty alliance. In a sense, there is an insurmountable gulf between bounty hunters and believers.

However, the old man took a deep breath, shook his head and said: "Tiandu is a neutral city, in principle, we cannot restrain the involvement of bounty hunters, I understand your concerns, and similarly, as one of the only two missionaries in this city, I also feel the same way, their arrival will indeed affect the followers of the Holy Lord, but you should also know that there is a treaty of alliance, as a psychic, you can only obey." ”

The Holy Lord also understands that the existence of the Bounty Alliance is a double-edged sword, so he has also formulated some countermeasures, it will use eighty percent of the earth as a neutral plate, and the bounty hunters must abide by the laws of the alliance in this area, and the remaining twenty percent will be divided into two. Half of the area is the territory of the Bounty Alliance, where bounties and trading houses are located, and most of them are deserted or ruined, with two or three in almost every country. The remaining half is a forbidden area for the Alliance, which bounty hunters are forbidden to enter, and if they do, they can even be sanctioned by missionaries. The reason for this rule is that the existence of the Bounty Alliance threatens people's beliefs.

"It has happened sensitively, and an innocent person died." Situ Xinyue sighed, "Maybe more? But I don't know now, but it must be more than that. ”

The old man fell into deep thought, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his black robe, then took out one and lit it, and took a sharp breath, the smoke and dust were cloudy, as if his sorrow surrounded his body. "The Laws of the Alliance state that missionaries cannot get involved in bounty hunters in neutral areas, even if they are against morality. Ay...... Miss Situ, if you look at something like this, you may feel a lot better. If the bounty hunters don't care about the safety of civilians, even if they don't do it, the civilians possessed by evil spirits will still die, and even more people will be affected. ”

Situ Xinyue sneered and shook her head. "It's really self-soothing."

The old man took another puff of his cigarette and whispered, "You should have a higher level of consciousness. ”

"I don't plan to become a missionary." Situ Xinyue was not happy in his heart, because the only person who could stop the bounty hunter was the missionary, and if he didn't make a move, there was nothing he could do.

After being silent for a long time, Situ Xinyue asked again: "By the way, there is one more thing I want to ask you." ”

The old man smiled slightly, and put the cigarette butt in his hand in the ashtray on the round table next to him until it was extinguished. "Miss Situ doesn't have to be restrained, if I know it, I will definitely tell it."

But at this moment, outside the door of the secret room, there was a sound of hurried footsteps, and Situ Xinyue and the old man got up and looked at it almost at the same time. The drenched man, without slowing down, stared at them. The old man frowned, this person was not a psychic person, why would the gatekeeper let him in, and then he asked in a low voice, "Miss Situ, is this your friend?" ”

Looking at the man who was gradually coming from a distance, Situ Xinyue's eyes were stunned, this was the person she had met outside before, she thought that the other party was just a believer and broke into here by mistake. "No, I don't know him."

The old man took a step forward, cleared his turbid throat, and shouted, "Little brother, this is a private place, do we have an appointment?" ”

However, Mu Tianyu didn't stop, he didn't even slow down, he passed directly by the area where the old man and Situ Xinyue were, and from the dark corridor, he went straight to the depths of the secret room. "Sorry to excuse me, I, I'm not here for you." Mu Tianyu smiled indifferently, his back was in the dim candlelight, as if he was leaving.

The old man did not answer, but he did not stop him, and his brow furrowed even more as he gradually looked in the direction of his distance. From this moment, Situ Xinyue was surprised to find that in the depths of the secret room, about thirty meters away, there was a woman with her back to her, looking down at the raging fire in the fireplace. She couldn't believe it, if she hadn't seen it at this time, I'm afraid, I'm afraid he would have thought that there were only two people in this secret room, she and the priest, but she never expected that in the depths of the seclusion, there was always a woman standing there.

"She, who is she?" Situ Xinyue looked at the old man with a puzzled look.

The old man turned his gaze back from Mu Tianyu's back, he shook his head and smiled: "It's just an ordinary person, an inconsequential person." ”

Situ Xinyue's frowning brows did not relax, she obviously would not believe this explanation, a commoner appeared here, the priest did not have any concerns, and still did not hide the conversation between psychics. No, it's two civilians! Situ Xinyue said secretly, looking at the man's back again.

Mu Tianyu stared at the woman's back in front of the fireplace, a pair of invisible white wings stretched out from her back, and the snow-white feathers reflected the reflection in the fire, like the scorching sun. Of course, such a shocking picture is only visible to him. That's right, it's an angel, a female angel from the temple!

The woman seemed to be aware of Mu Tianyu's arrival, so she turned around, her appearance was calm and steady, her eyebrows were raised, her eyes were bright, her skin was fair, slightly bronzed, and her blue pupils were bright. "Mu Tianyu." The corners of her mouth turned up, a smile appeared, and she whispered, "Long time no see." ”

"Angela." Mu Tianyu smiled back.

"Wow." The woman stepped forward and carefully studied the man in front of her, as if trying to see him through. "It's been nearly ten years, but I didn't expect you to remember my name."

"Aren't you too?"

"Huh." The woman smiled charmingly and stroked her hair. "You know, time flies faster in the temple than here, and your ten years, for me, are just a year, a white horse flies, in the blink of an eye." She settled down, slid her devoted eyes over Mu Tianyu's face, and sighed with a smile: "I haven't seen you for ten years, your face has gradually changed, but it has become more attractive." ”

Mu Tianyu pursed his lips and smiled, and then fell silent again.

"Oh." The woman came back to her senses, took a deep breath and asked, "It seems that you are back to your old business now, what's wrong?" Because of what? You drank the only remaining bottle of Oblivion potion in the world, and it seems that the effect of the medicine has lost its effect with the passage of time. ”

"Angela." Mu Tianyu suddenly whispered: "I came to you today to ask you to borrow something." ”

The monthly mission held by the missionary church in each city is not held on the same day, and the angels who remain in the mortal world will go to the city where the mission is held on this day because of the guard. Just imagine how serious it would be if there was a problem with the faith of many people at the same time, so the angels appeared, just in case. Mu Tianyu learned from the missionaries in Iron Furnace that Tiandu would hold a mission tonight, and he rushed to it immediately, otherwise it would have to wait until next month.

For a female angel, she naturally understands an identity like Mu Tianyu. "Borrowing something? Mortals borrow holy relics, that's whimsical......" She smiled at Mu Tianyu, as if she was quietly admiring him. "But it's a different story for you."

Mu Tianyu nodded, and said with a long sigh: "Thank you, I, I want to borrow it, hell...... of, the Holy Book. ”

"Holy books?" The woman's eyes twitched, and then she stared at a wooden table next to the fireplace, on which was a large, heavy book, with the middle part open. "The holy book is there, and you can come whenever you want to read whatever you want."

"Nope." Mu Tianyu glanced sideways, and the holiness badge embedded in the page flashed with light. "I don't mean the holy book, I, I mean, the devil's book, the devil's book."

The woman didn't answer silently, she stared at Mu Tianyu, and suddenly sneered: "Mu Tianyu, from the beginning, you have always been involved in power, don't think that the Holy Lord has not issued a wanted warrant, we will not imprison you, the Great Holy Lord may be too busy to pay attention to your affairs, don't wait until the last moment, there is no turning back." ”

"Hmph." A look of disdain appeared on Mu Tianyu's face. "I know that you angels look down on me, have opinions about me, hate me, and blame me for cutting off that angel's wings?" Mu Tianyu looked indifferent and whispered: "He deserves it!" He harassed the civilian population and, with the so-called power of justice, destroyed three innocent girls, the youngest of whom was only fourteen years old! ”

The woman glared at him angrily, and the invisible wings behind her suddenly appeared, and with a wave of it, the flames in the fireplace suddenly made a piercing popping sound, and suddenly the flames raged. "If it weren't for him at that time, because he was stained with that filthy essence and blood, it would be up to you, and you wouldn't want to touch a single hair of him!"

The old man outside and Situ Xinyue were suddenly attracted by the flames rising in the fireplace in the depths, only to see a man and a woman holding each other, unable to hear each other's conversation, but from their eyes, they felt a trace of anger.

"Father." Situ Xinyue spoke: "Now that the evil forces here are ready to attack, those evil spirits are ready to move, but I am afraid that the number of victims will gradually increase. As a result, some new bounties have been sold, and bounty hunters are sure to be arriving here one after another. ”

The old man shook his head and sighed, then looked into Situ Xinyue's eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Not only Tiandu, but also the evil forces in various places are growing rapidly, and the number of bounty orders announced is huge, so it is not so quick to turn here. During this time, I am also discussing with some people in the church, hoping that the government can also introduce some trends of faith, as long as people pray sincerely, do good with all their hearts, and become believers, they will naturally be protected by the Holy Light. There are nearly 700,000 people in the city, and in terms of the current number of believers, it is far from enough, and we will try to promote some silverware in the homes of citizens, which is the only way at present. ”

Situ Xinyue lowered her head, and she felt a little weak.

The violent flames in the fireplace burst out, and then dimmed again, Mu Tianyu was not afraid, he said indifferently: "So, this is called retribution!" ”

"Father." Situ Xinyue spoke: "Now that the evil forces here are ready to attack, those evil spirits are ready to move, but I am afraid that the number of victims will gradually increase. As a result, some new bounties have been sold, and bounty hunters are sure to be arriving here one after another. ”

Situ Xinyue lowered her head, and she felt a little weak.

The violent flames in the fireplace burst out, and then dimmed again, Mu Tianyu was not afraid, he said indifferently: "So, this is called retribution!" (To be continued.) )
