Leon frowned and put the Sword of Victory back into its sheath.

With an obvious look of dissatisfaction, he asked, "So, you have been hiding in this church for half a month, and you don't know any useful information?"

Father John shuddered, and he drew a cross in front of him: "I'm sorry, but I'm not worthy of my duties as a shepherd. I must admit that I am not a good shepherd, but a vile hired hand who has failed to herd his flock well for God's eyes. ”

Leon knew that this was a common parable in the Bible.

They liken ordinary people to God's flock, and clergy and lords are God's shepherds.

A good shepherd is a shepherd who can stand up to the enemy and even give his life when his flock is attacked by predators.

Father John stopped talking, and watched the two leave.

He feared that taking in the two heretics would anger God, and instinctively felt that it was safer to have them around.

A hired hand is a shepherd who drinks the blood of a sheep and eats mutton, but when he encounters a predator, he scatters and surrenders his flock to the predator.

Leon sighed: "Let's go, Luojia, staying here can only be a waste of time." ”

They diverted to the Lord's Palace, where the main gate was open, and all kinds of utensils were scattered on the ground, but there were few corpses inside.

Remember the URL

But there are only a few.

...

Walking out of the church, Li Ang said, "Let's go to the Lord's Mansion and have a look." ”

The most striking thing that catches the eye is a throne made of steel, with no superfluous ornamentation on it, except for two giant axes crossed on the wall directly above the throne, full of iron and fierceness.

In the shadows, it resembles a demon entrenched in the darkness, and the reflected cold light is the demon's pupils.

The lord here has at least the title of viscount, and the mansion is quite elegantly decorated, and the town was once very prosperous.

They stepped into the hall of the lords.

He came to the throne, and on it sat a corpse with a rotten intestine, the so-called "lord lord", with black chains wrapped around his abdomen, and his whole body was bound to the steel throne.

But he seemed to have been struggling desperately, and the black chains were stained with a layer of dark red clotted plasma.

"I'm not afraid of an axe falling and smashing my head. ”

Leon thought so.

Luo Jia shook his head: "He doesn't have the breath of a demon on him. Are you suspicious of Father John?"

Leon nodded: "No demonic breath does not mean that you are not a demon, I once met a priest named Martin, he has actually been transformed into a werewolf a long time ago, but there are special means to breathe, so that I failed to detect the abnormality, and was almost killed by him." ”

Where it is attached to the shirt, the wear is quite severe.

Caught off guard, Leon suddenly asked, "Do you think there is something wrong with Father John?"

Leon said noncommittally, "This is exactly what I wonder, if he had colluded with the demon, he would never have shown such an obvious abnormality. ”

"He must be some kind of different from the other residents, otherwise he would not be the only one who would have survived. ”

"And you believe that he was blessed by God so he wasn't killed by the devil?"

Luo Jia hurriedly shook his head: "Of course not, so he is also a demon minion, or is he simply a demon?"

Lorga smiled awkwardly, "I'm not very good at that, sorry. ”

He was more accustomed to relying on the guidance of divination to find demons, and this was the first time he encountered the blurred results of divination.

Luo Jia thought for a moment, then said tentatively, "Is his Latin language good?"

Leon said angrily: "The clergy think that Latin is the closest language to God, as a clergyman, how can his Latin be very bad?"

Leon asked, "Do you think there's anything wrong with this corpse, and why is the lord here tied to an iron seat?"

Luo Jia had a flash of inspiration and said, "Maybe it's to avoid letting him run out of the door!"

Li Ang said helplessly: "I'm not good at it, the first time I hunted werewolves, I didn't find anything, they found me."

But the more you experience this kind of thing, you will realize that the demons are not all muscular and tough fools who come up to you, and many of them are even smarter than humans. ”

Leon asked, "Is it something they're running away from, or is there something that's attracting them?"

"If you run away, that is, stay indoors, you are likely to be attacked by demons, and if you are attracted, it is a sign that the demons are likely to be outside. ”

Most of the previous dead died in the streets, and there were few bodies in the mansion, and if there were, they were all on the way to escape outside the mansion.

"So what does that mean?"

Lorgar happily agreed, "Okay, we can compete to see who can hunt that demon first!"

Li Ang waved his hand and said in a somewhat instructive tone: "Demon hunting is not child's play, even low-level demons may contain fierce poison that can kill people, so once you find out about the enemy, you must notify me immediately." ”

Li Ang clapped his hands and said, "Since it is a choice between the two, then let's act separately, I will act indoors, and you will act outside." ”

"How?"

...

However, until it was getting dark, they still found nothing, and the demon did not take advantage of their solitude to attack.

Lorga nodded humbly.

"Alright, let's start searching for clues. ”

Li Ang lay on the bed and rested for a while, waited until he got up in half an hour, and said, "Luojia, you can rest for a while, we will set off later." ”

Luo Jia smiled and refused: "No, I have been lying for twenty years, and I don't have to waste time sleeping in the future." The teacher said that since I woke up, my life has lasted a third longer than that of ordinary people. ”

The situation reached an impasse for a while.

That night, they stayed in an attic in the backyard of the lord's mansion, and the house was clean because almost all the people except the lord died outside.

"It's actually very good, no desire, no desire, no tiredness, hunger, thirst, cold, it used to be hard to endure every winter and summer, but now it feels warm in winter and cool in summer. ”

Li Ang patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's really enviable." ”

Leon asked, "Won't you feel tired?"

Luo Jia smiled: "Of course not, I just need enough soul to maintain the existence of my soul, and I will never be tired and will not die again." ”

Leon took some water from a clay pot and some cured meat and bread from the kitchen of the lord's mansion, and filled his stomach with water.

"Good. ”

"I'm still alive, though, so I need something to eat before I can continue to look for the demons. ”

"Let's go. ”

He and Lorgar walked into the night one after the other, until much later, when the clay pot that Leon had used to hold the water popped and made the sound of heavy objects falling into the water.

The water in the clay pot rippled, and suddenly, a dark green eye flashed from the water.
