"Don't kill me, I'm not with him, I'm just a prostitute, please don't kill me!" the woman held Catherine's feet and wailed, Catherine stared down at her and hesitated for a moment, grabbed her by the hair, dragged her up and put a knife to her throat and said, "If you dare to talk nonsense, I will cut your tongue off." ”
The woman said yes, Catherine dropped her and turned to walk to the bedroom door, and the woman behind her suddenly grabbed a dagger from Heinrich's belt from the floor next to her and threw it at Catherine, and the little flower spirit hidden behind her neck waved her hand and released two willow blades to knock the dagger away.
Catherine turned her head to look at the woman with a cold gaze, leaned over and lifted the hem of her long skirt and pulled out the silver gun tied to her right leg, ignoring her pleas and pulling the trigger, the silver gun with the silent mode turned on let out a faint gunshot, and a silver bullet shattered the woman's head.
Catherine turned back to the living room, shot Heinrich's body on the ground, wiped the blood from the dagger, hid both weapons in her lap, and strode out of the room.
As soon as she went out, she saw Hans standing not far away with a look of chagrin, and as soon as she saw her, she immediately greeted her, and asked her how things were going, and Catherine told him that she had already talked to Heinrich, but that she needed to find other helpers, and she gave Hans the half of the list, and asked him if he knew anyone above.
Hans read the list carefully, and said that the people on it knew him, and these people were all from the Angel Hunters Guild, and he could lead Catherine to them.
Catherine then gave him a silver coin, and said, "This is an advance for you, and there are thirty-five men in all, and I will give you one for every ten people I find, and I will give you one for the last five." ”
"Thank you, Miss, I'll help you find them!" Hans thanked him with great joy, and took Catherine to search for them one by one according to the names on the list, and after each time she found them, Catherine looked for a place to talk to them alone, while Hans waited for her to come out on the street.
As time passed, the people on the list were erased one by one, some had their throats cut, some were shot, some were strangled by Monica with poison ivy, and some had their necks cut with willow leaves.
As the list of people died, Hans had more and more silver coins in his hand, and when the last angel hunter died under Catherine's white high heels before dusk, Catherine, who put away her weapon, glanced down at the list in her hand and burned it to ashes with the candles in the dead man's room.
She gave Hans the last of the silver coins, took him to the tavern for dinner, and then opened a room and led him to the second floor, where Hans, who followed Catherine, was now full of infinite reverie, and her two somewhat drunken eyes peeked up and down at Catherine's delicate figure, and her mind was full of imagination.
Catherine brought him into the room and asked him to sit down at the table, Hans looked drunkenly at the snow-white beauty in front of him, and saw that she took off the white rose hat on her head and blocked the delicate white rose in front of him, Hans wanted to raise his hand to push the hat away but found that his body was limp and could not move, and he quickly lost consciousness.
When he woke up from his slumber, it was already the next morning, and a sheriff from Bailin City led him to the law enforcement compound with a team of soldiers, and the sheriff told him that there had been a series of killings in the city yesterday, and nearly seventy people had been killed, all of whom were members of the Angel Hunters' Guild.
Hans was at a loss at what the sheriff said, and the sheriff told him that many people had seen him approaching several dead people yesterday with a woman in a white coat and hat, and asked him to tell him something about the woman.
Hans was stunned to recall for a long time, but he couldn't think of anything at all, there was nothing in his mind except the white rose that lingered in front of him, he didn't know that during the dinner last night, he had drunk the poison that Monica had secretly put in the wine, and all memories related to Catherine had been erased, leaving only the snow-white rose.
It wasn't until noon the next day that Rogge returned to a hotel in Cologne where he had agreed with Catherine, and Catherine had changed into a smart white dress and white pants, and all but the white rose hat had been discarded.
"You know, the whole city of Whitewood is talking about that terrible white rose, and you've become the center of attention for everyone. Rog stopped in front of her, glanced at the white rose hat she wore on her head, and smiled.
"Yes, they probably didn't find anything, did they?" asked Catherine concerned and cautious.
"There's nothing, that's why it's such a big sensation," Rogge spread his hands and shook his head and smiled: "No one knows who the murderer is, no one knows why she did it, no one knows where she came from and where she went, the only thing people know is that it was a white rose that brought death to these people." ”
"That's good," said Catherine, smiling with satisfaction, taking off her hat and looking down at the white rose on her hat, "in that case, I will use the white rose as my nickname in the future, just like 'lone wolf'!"
"Isn't that the equivalent of writing the word murderer on your pretty little face?" said Rogge, smiling as he lit his pipe.
"You want to catch me?" Catherine smiled mischievously, raised her pretty willow eyebrows, and said, "Then let them try!"
"Hahahaha," Rogge laughed, putting his hand on Catherine's shoulders as he walked out of the inn, "I'd love to hear anyone say that, wouldn't I?"
"Who else has said that but the worst bad wolf in the world?" said the little furball as he lay on Rog's shoulder and looked at him with disgust.
"Now, that scoundrel has his best successor," said Rog, taking the white rose hat from Catherine's hand and placing it on her head, "The white rose has bloomed, will she bring fear or hope to the world?" ”
Catherine nodded slightly tacitly, and suddenly heard the little hairball interject: "In addition to these two, there seems to be a big white ......" Before the latter words were finished, Rogge quickly pinched her little eagle's beak and said: "Ahem, okay, don't be verbose, little villain, let's hurry up and meet the Grand Master!"
After saying that, he pinched the mouth of the struggling little furball and strode away, Catherine and Monica looked at his strange appearance, glanced at each other, couldn't help but smile and quickly followed.
When they returned to the Valley of the Sages, it was getting dark, and Rog and Catherine found Isabella and her Winged Sisters in front of the statue of the Mother of the Wingmen, with Antonio and Tali waiting there, relieved to learn that the purge had been perfected.
"All that's left is to track down the mastermind, leave this matter to me," Rogge said confidently, "The Angel Hunter Guild is now dead in name, and if the mastermind wants to continue his hunt, he must recruit an accomplice again, and I will definitely be able to find out his whereabouts as long as he shows up." ”
"Thank you, thank you for everything you have done for us. Isabella bowed gratefully to the four, and the Wingman sisters bowed to the four together, and Rogge and the others hurriedly helped them up, and asked about the leader of the Angel Hunter Guild, Sente.
Isabella told Rogge that Cent had been taken to the grave of their dead sisters and that all the bodies had been buried by the Platinum Guardians.
Just as they were about to leave, Isabella suddenly stopped them, she held a calf bone in front of Rogge with both hands and said, "Please take this, this is my eldest sister's leg bone, she was killed here by angel hunters, her body was cut into countless pieces, we only recovered a few bones, this is one of them." ”
"Isabella, how can this be?" said Rog and Antonio, who looked at each other in surprise and waved their hands.
"I know you're here to use our bones to repair human artifacts. Isabella persistently handed the bone to Rogge.
"Although humanity has been hurting us, I feel from you that there are still good people among the human race, and that holy weapon is guarding your world, and I think we should do our part for this, even if it is to repay you for protecting us. Isabella said as she looked at the four of them earnestly.
The winged women behind Isabella nodded approvingly, and Rogge and Antonio looked at each other with some embarrassment, hesitating to accept her kindness, and they carefully saved the bones and thanked Isabella and her sisters.
Before leaving the Valley of the Sages, Rog had Monica summon a row of trees at the mouth of the Valley of the Sage, sealing it off with entangled vines to prevent anyone from entering the area by mistake to discover the secrets of the Winged People and bring them danger again.
The four people who returned to Bailin City went straight to the Magicians Guild and handed over the Angel Relics they brought back to Hank, the leader of the Magicians Guild, but they didn't mention anything about the Angel Hunters, and Hank didn't seem to care about the Angel Hunters, and immediately said that he would start repairing the holy weapon after getting the bones.
The next day, taking advantage of their spare time, Rogge and Antonio went to the Temple of the Sacred Synod of Deiz, where Antonio handed over the Demon Stone obtained from the Angel Hunter to the chief priest of the Templar Temple, asking them to take strict care of the Demon Stone, while Rog came to the Sanctuary Library to consult the information on the Demon Stone.
From a history book, Rogge found such a piece of information, after the human army defeated the vampire queen a century ago, a total of ten demon stones were seized from several demon patriarchs under his command, and brought them back to the human realm, eight of which were kept in the Imperial Capital's Holy Hui Palace, while the other two were handed over to the Mage Tower for study.
"Could it be that the source of this demon stone is ......" Rogge raised his head in surprise, threw down the book in his hand, turned around and rushed out of the library to find Antonio, and asked him about the preservation of the demon stone in the imperial capital.
Antonio said with a blank look on his face as he recalled: "I don't know, if it is really in the Imperial Capital Palace, then only His Majesty the Holy Emperor has the key to the storage room, and all the rare treasures and magical items in the Imperial Capital Palace are in the Imperial Palace Storage Room, including the third holy artifact, the Golden Divine Crystal. ”
"If that's the case, the possibility that the Demon Stone was stolen from the Imperial Capital is very small, could it be that the instigator behind the Angel Hunter Guild is the Mage Tower?"
Unexpectedly, when the two returned to the Magicians' Guild, they found that all the magicians were missing, and the huge guild was empty.
