Act XXXI: Investigation I
Converting all souls other than the Cardinal Paladin into experience points, Tang Ze's current experience bar has climbed to 19%.
"Greedy sucking."
The Book of Greed, which was silent in the void, slowly emerged, turning the three pages that had been activated, and exuding a strange power, successfully incorporating the soul of the red-clothed paladin without resistance.
Lv1 [Greedy Drain] is a special skill attached to skill Lv7 [Greedy Power], which has the effect of capturing souls and turning into greedy prisoners for imprison.
There is a reason why the soul of the red-clothed paladin was specially included, and Tang Ze immediately released the next skill, which is also a special skill attached to Lv7 [Greedy Power].
Lv1 [Power Unleashed], which consumes a certain amount of energy to release the "Greedy Prisoner" for battle.
However, Tang Ze was not ready to let the cardinal paladin fight, he just wanted to use this method to obtain some information about the "Divine Doctrine".
It is worth mentioning that the "Prisoner of Greed" who has undergone "power release" can only be summoned once, because the soul of an ordinary human is too weak, even if it is a professional, and after one time, the soul of the Cardinal will disappear due to the depletion of energy.
Ripples appeared in the void, and the figure of the red-clothed paladin was revealed, and this time he looked at Tang Ze without hatred.
There is only reverence and awe.
Although a group of monster servants, including the countess, remained silent, they were actually very surprised to see this scene, it was really strange that the master had summoned a human soul.
And in the eyes of the countess, the servants who have fought against the Red Doctrine, Tang Ze's strength has become more and more profound, this is a feeling from shallow to deep, not a simple increase in strength.
The ability to summon the souls of professionals who have died in battle and use them for their own use is as powerful as the Demon King of Hell.
Surprised, they did not show it, and their breathing became more and more cautious.
Then, a majestic voice broke the oppressive atmosphere.
"Tell me all that you know about the Divine Doctrine."
Tang Ze was very calm, staring at the red-clothed paladin in front of him.
"As you wish."
The cardinal paladin did not hesitate, worshiped Tang Ze as the supreme pope, and naturally followed his orders incomparably.
He knelt directly with the highest courtesy.
As if as a signal, the other monster minions quickly lowered their heads, becoming more and more respectful.
However, what neither the monster servant nor the red-clothed paladin noticed was that Tang Ze's face under the hideous black helmet showed a little smile.

At the monastery gate, soft sunlight streamed down from the top of the building, cut through the gaps between the leaves, and dripped down the boots of the group.
Zhu Lan took a deep breath and showed a slightly intoxicated expression, she hadn't breathed such fresh air for a long time, without the slightest impurities of evil breath, more wonderful than any fine wine in Canduras.
"How's it going, did you find anything?"
She watched as Seniore leaped easily from the top of the tree, smiling and asking, "This tree is the tallest in the neighborhood, and I guess you can see far away." โ
"Hmm, I'm sorry."
Seniore shrugged his shoulders and looked away, "It's calm in this area, the sun is warm, and there's no sign of monsters. โ
"It seems that everyone else is in a similar situation."
"Yes, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed that it was the monastery that once plagued demons..."
Looking in the direction pointed by Senior, the huge figure of the monastery church was mostly obscured by the forest, and the only corner that was exposed did not have any eerie traces, bathed in sunlight, but looked peaceful.
No one could sense the evil aura, and gradually, everyone relaxed.
And rightfully so.
The professionals present were all highly perceptive people who were very sensitive to the Breath of Evil, and their convinced perception saved them several times.
No matter how hard you try to cheer up, some places will still involuntarily relax.
With the exception of Amber Melois, her judgment of the dangers of her surroundings is not based on her own perception, but on a voice in her ear.
At the moment she was alone in the shade of the tree, talking to herself.
"My disc is not moving."
She frowned, her tone tinged with a hint of questioning, "According to you, another powerful demon took Andariel's place, only to give up most of its territory and not place any monsters here, just huddle in Andariel's lair?" โ
Amber agrees with what Seniore said earlier.
The more advanced the demon, the stronger the territorial consciousness, and she couldn't believe that the more powerful unknown demon who replaced Andariel could be so cowardly.
"Hahaha, maybe this is already its territory..."
With a little mocking laughter, Amber was stunned, "It's already its territory?" But there's no evil breath here..."
"But before it could take care of its garden, a few little things broke in... Well, your destination is dangerous, and I suggest you get out of here and return to Westmar."
"You!"
Amber instantly became angry, "You asked me to investigate the situation in the Blood Palace..."
"Don't worry"
As if intent on teasing Amber, the voice continued, "I did have you here... But now we know the situation, don't we?"
Amber snorted, "How am I going to explain it to them?" โ
"The outing is over, the excitement is gone, it's time to return?"
"That's your problem, not mine."
"I've warned you, it's dangerous up ahead..."
The little aura that surrounded her disappeared, and Amber couldn't help but clench her teeth when she realized the other party's departure.
"I'm not your puppet... Darn! โ
She thought about it for a while, and decided to explore the monastery gate and the outer cloister of the church first.
In any case, she and these professionals set out here with a mission, and their mission is related to human beings, and the survival of the professional to fight against the demon front can be said to be a mission that cannot go wrong.
If she returns casually, not only will her prestige be greatly diminished, but she may also be suspected.
What's more, she came here not only to investigate the dissipation of the demonic plague, but also to find Nania's whereabouts.
Her instincts told her that Nania's disappearance was inextricably linked to the torment of Queen Andariel, and that she might still be trapped in the depths of the cathedral's palace of blood.
In addition, she and other professionals have to investigate some of the heroes who have disappeared in the cathedral, which is something that the higher-ups of the Rog camp such as Kasha and Akara have specifically instructed to do about the Sawyer Alliance and the Divine Doctrine, and if these things can be completely resolved, maybe some clues to the royal family can be found.
Still, she was quite attentive to what the mysterious voice said.
So she decided to keep an eye on it.
"Done with the rest?"
Seniore sat down on the stone and turned to look at Amber as she walked slowly, "Or do you want to go straight to the monastery or not?" โ
โ...โ
Everyone's eyes fell on Amber's face, and they noticed that her expression seemed to be a little more solemn.
"There may be some changes in the execution of the mission."
Amber glanced at Seniore and said in a deep voice.
