Nigal City, outside a church in the center.

Two beggars, dressed in tattered clothes and thin yellow faces, wandered outside the church, staggering.

"Mother, we haven't eaten in two days, I'm really hungry. One of the little girls said timidly, pulling at the corner of her mother's coat with her little hands.

The other, slightly older woman, sighed and pulled the girl inside.

When they went to beg in other churches today, they were all kicked out by the guards inside, but the mother decided to try again when she saw her daughter's eager eyes.

The church was dimly lit and there were no guards, except for a priest dressed in black sacrificial robes with thinning hair.

"Gracious priest, can you give us a little food?" the two did not dare to approach, but bowed their heads and prostrated on the steps outside the church.

The priest turned, with a look of pity on his face, and shifted his steps to the mother and daughter.

He stroked their cheeks with his hand, took out a few silver coins, and said gently, "Poor children, you must come out of this world of sorrow as soon as possible. ”

The mother and daughter were overjoyed, hurriedly took the silver coin, and thanked them incoherently.

The priest was about to say something, but out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of a strange bird flying out of the window, so he picked up the mother and daughter and sent them out of the church.

"Yikes. ”

A three-legged jackdaw with dark hair, a grayish chest and abdomen, and silver fine lines behind its eyes landed on the windowsill.

The priest picked up the three-legged jackdaw, walked to the back hall, and slowly spoke: "Say, something urgent happened, let you use the magic pet to contact me." ”

"Lord Yavi, Subject Nine lost contact two days ago. A strange red light flashed in the jackdaw's eyes, and a deep male voice came from his mouth, "When I went to the western suburbs to investigate, I found that someone deliberately set fire to the corpse and destroyed it, and Greta was also dead. ”

Yavi suddenly changed color, and a frost appeared on his face.

"I'll let you guarantee the safety of the test subject, and you're going to give me such an answer sheet?!"

The temperature in the room dropped suddenly, and the shadow of the jackdaw writhed strangely under the influence of some force.

"My lord is wronged! It was the ninth good who made the advocacy and did not contact me. The jackdaw defended, and then stubbornly said, "Now that the plan is at risk of being exposed, should you start it early?"

"Nope. ”

Yavi interrupted the jackdaw directly: "Tell the other test subjects to lurk, the war will be over soon." ”

The jackdaw blinked, as if puzzled.

Now that the layout is basically completed, even if a number nine is lost, it doesn't matter the overall situation, it is obviously the best time to destroy the kingdom of Turin, why stop the plan.

Yave didn't explain, and continued: "But the matter of Nine must be investigated, her area of activity is near Wellington, you go and investigate whether Brandon has anything to do with this matter." ”

"But...," Jackdaw hesitated slightly.

"Rest assured, Brandon is just a scrappy man right now. Yavi waved his hand and said nonchalantly, "You just need to be careful not to get into a confrontation with him, and after this point, no one will be able to stop us." ”

"Yes!" the jackdaw spread its wings and flew into the air.

.......

Detached house, in the basement.

Kevin's whole body was covered with white bandages, only a pair of eyes were exposed, and he looked a little inconvenient to move, and with his strong recovery ability, he was also able to recuperate in bed for three days.

Tolandall, he took a long leave of absence from Brandon and was not going to be in Wellington for a short time.

Kevin walked down the cloister in the basement and muttered to himself, "Do you want to just abandon this identity and flee to the royal capital?" ”

Timothy's strength is close to the knight level, and she is only an insignificant pawn, so you can imagine how terrible the organization behind her is.

Ever since he provoked such a behemoth, he has always been uneasy, although he has not left a trace, but the wizard's methods are strange and difficult to prevent, and he is not sure that he will be traced.

"Bang!"

The iron door to the basement was opened.

"Ahhh ”

A terrible scream resounded throughout the basement.

Timothy was fixed to an iron frame in a large shape, and his upper and lower jaws were pierced by chains, unable to move, and his whole body was scarred, and there was no intact skin, which was miserable.

"It seems that I am too kind, and you still have the strength to speak?"

Kevin sneered, his face full of tyranny, picked up a red-hot soldering iron, and strode towards Timothy.

"Ah!!h

Her delicate skin came into contact with the soldering iron without any barriers, and under the heat, the skin quickly turned black and burnt. Like barbecue, hissing white gas kept coming out.

"Hahaha. ”

Kevin laughed happily as he pressed the iron down and twisted his arm.

"Kill.. Finish.. I. Timothy sweated like rain, trembling violently, and shouted heartbreakingly: "Kill me!!"

"Tell me the secret of the church and the black mist, and I'll give you a good time!" Kevin pulled out the soldering iron and looked up at Timothy.

Timothy's face contorted, and he spat out a mouthful of phlegm from the depths of his throat: "Phew, dream, when the church catches you, you will definitely die worse than me!"

Kevin snorted coldly, picked up a basin of cold water, and splashed it on the scalded wound.

"Ahh

Timothy threw his head back suddenly, his body twitching, and his head hit the iron frame behind him.

"It's been three days, and the mighty church you call has pursued you here? I don't think you even found out you're missing. Kevin denigrated the church as much as he could, "Or maybe you're just a useless tool to throw away at will." ”

He didn't believe that Timothy's mental defense and willpower were so strong.

Timothy seemed to be stimulated, and said intermittently, "Just because of you... Filthy humanity, the world has become degenerate, and only by purifying everything can the Church bring salvation and light to the world!"

Kevin's eyes flashed, and he felt that the fish was about to be hooked, and then asked, "Aren't you also a human?" Or is the leader of the church an orc from the Ottoman Empire? ”

Timothy grinned, his eyes full of contempt.

His Holiness the Pope said that the Ottoman Empire was also the object of purification. ”

Well?

This answer surprised him a little, he had thought that the church was a Ottoman power that specialized in sabotaging hostile countries.

"Is the so-called church really some kind of co-teaching?" Kevin's brow furrowed.

He walked up to Timothy, clamped his neck, and said fiercely: "One last chance." Tell me.... Who are the members of the church? ”

There was no panic in Timothy's eyes, and she stared at Kevin like a brave warrior.
