Chapter 9 Embark on the Pursuit

When the investigation team led by the tea fairy launched an investigation into the serial murder of nobles in Venice, there was already an undercurrent surging under the seemingly calm waters of the European continent.

The recent activities of the Iron Commandment have suddenly become more frequent. The new defeat of the Inspector General of the Holy City, Carmo Botrini, has shaken his position in the Order to a certain extent, and despite the use of the Holy Cross, a flag bearer, and ten warrior knights, he has not been able to kill the Blood Lord, and further increased his own casualties. As a result, the Order later had to decide to relinquish control of Reflection City and destroy it. If things are done like this, the word "incompetence" is definitely on the head. Fortunately, after this conflict, he still brought back a piece of information that was somewhat valuable, that is, this "blood lord" was likely to be the "God Butcher" recorded in the "Code of Precepts".

Whether a book of prophecy written by a chief priest more than a hundred years ago is enough to be believed? No one can say for sure, but the chief pastors of all ages have some skills for unpredictable prophets, which is a well-known fact in the Iron Commandment. For example, before Botrini's departure, the chief pastor said, "When the murderer appears to you, you will know that it is him." And it turned out to be true.

There is a very paradoxical problem here, and it is also a problem that most religions have yet to solve. For example, those who believe in God, since you believe that this is Orthodoxy, and you believe that the world you live in was built by a man who spent seven days, then you have to believe that the apocalypse will eventually come. You can't just admit the good things and ignore the negative things.

There is also the problem with the Iron Commandment, since you are gathered under the call of faith, and you believe that everything that is being done under this banner is right, then you have to believe in the prophecies that are not good for you. You can't expect all good prophecies to come true, and bad prophecies are all lies.

Thus, the Iron Commandment's approach to the issue of the "Blood Lords" is to deny neither the Code of the Commandments nor the threat of the Blood Lords. It's probably the smartest thing they can come up with. Could it be that just because this product is a little similar to the portrait of the pastor and elder a hundred years ago, and killed hundreds of our grassroots members, we should be frightened? Then how can we gain a foothold in front of other resistance groups? If this news spreads, the empire will not immediately mass-produce hundreds of plastic surgery versions of blood lords to confuse the public?

Obviously, the leadership of the Iron Commandment is much more intelligent and methodical than the village priests who burned innocent village women as witches in the Middle Ages, and to put it more simply, their faith is to say one thing and do another.

On the surface, he can make a gesture of ignorance, but in actual action, the Grand Master is already deploying troops and strategizing. With Europe as the core, the organization has accumulated strength to the maximum extent and is ready to go. As the so-called raising soldiers for a thousand days and using them for a while, perhaps the appearance of the "God Butcher" is a signal, urging them to take action...... Years of business have made the Iron Ring strong enough to compete with the Empire on a frontal battlefield, and now the time is nearing ripe for the world to change and the big things can be done.

............

On February 27, the investigation was carried out for a week, and many headless public cases around the world were uncovered, and some pig farms were closed...... Nothing else was found.

The Blood Lord's whereabouts are still unknown, but he has changed his routine and has not gone to a random big city to continue his experiments, so he is almost nowhere to be found.

There was no more useful information to be asked from the three killers of Silver Shadow. Originally, the purpose of the blood lord to leave these three living mouths was to prove his "innocence". This sounds unbelievable at first glance, but it is not difficult to understand, in terms of the logic of the blood lord, he can admit that he killed 10,000 people, but he will never allow others to pretend to be him to kill one person. In short, those three people are not much help in tracking down the blood lords.

A few days later, the focus of the investigation shifted to the issue of Colonel Malone, which was also the result of pressure from above. Although it is important to catch the criminals of the danger level four, the emotions of the nobles must be taken care of, and the truth of the incident must be found out as soon as possible so that the Venetian magnates can be explained.

Cha Xian was very disgusted by this, the eyes of that group of mediocre people were always so short-sighted, and the pursuit of Tianyi for many years was the same, relying on the identity of the Seventh Prince and the power of the HL special agent he could act freely to a certain extent. And once he encountered this kind of case related to the aristocratic royal family, he didn't need to open his mouth, and the European headquarters immediately dispatched a large number of elite soldiers to come and work hard, set targets for him, and give death orders.

In front of the paper man, the tea fairy also complained without scruples: "The corpses are vegetarian, what a pity to die, but I don't know how many innocent lives people like blood lords will harm when they run rampant in the world." ”

Who knew that the paper man snorted coldly after hearing this, and his words were even more ugly than those of the tea fairy: "Corpse vegetarian meal?" I can tell you responsibly that when it comes to fish and meat people, that's light. ”

Whenever he heard similar remarks from these two people, Luca Instructor always hung his weasel filial piety - pretending to be garlic, or simply urinating, as if he was suffering from intermittent deafness and prostate disease. There is no way, one of the two is an emperor with unscrupulous words and deeds, and the other is a broken hatred and is estimated to have lost his heart. Uncle, I still want to live in this position until I retire, and go home to enjoy the retirement salary of the cadre level. I've been rolling on the knife for a lifetime, but I can't play with you two like this.

Sure enough, in mid-March, when the tea fairy and the paper man were about to leave Europe for Chicago, Luca reasoned that the current situation in Europe was unstable, and he had to go back to the headquarters to wait for the dispatch, and he could not go together.

Tea Immortal He also knew what he was thinking, and on the surface he didn't say anything, nor did he force him to stay, he was very polite to this senior, and left.

Anyway, Marlon's deeds in Venice have been basically investigated, and the rest of the matter is some political shirking of responsibility for each other, so let the people in the European headquarters go and explain to the nobles.

Eventually, a name called "Advisor" surfaced. It's not like he hadn't seen this name before, but he didn't pay attention to it, in fact, on the special plane to Chicago, he still didn't take this dangerous level one guy in his eyes. He knew that the reason for the blood lord's change of behavior was to hunt down the consultant, and judging from the various reports of the recent inter-mafia struggle in Chicago, this guy called the consultant was just a second-rate person, and he really couldn't be called very smart.

Therefore, the tea fairy at this time believed that this trip would be a hunting trip with one stone. And the paper man who is traveling with him, his purpose, from beginning to end, has only one ......
