Chapter 319: The Demon Breaks Free from His Chains
The old sheriff raised his head, his gaze swept over the twelve knights, his gaze swept over the sword and shield one by one, and then turned back to Father Marshall, and said with a straight face: "Are you serious?" You're deliberately finding fault, aren't you? ”
"We obeyed the law, the horses took the lane, I took the sidewalk, and there was nothing wrong with it." Father Marshall still smiled kindly, and no one would dislike a well-behaved person.
The old sheriff saw that the priest was extraordinary and menacing, and had read the laws of California, so he was obviously not a character to be messed with.
Just as at noon, he didn't want to get into trouble for messing up the FBI agent's mission, now the old sheriff doesn't want to be involved in a clergy lawsuit because of these trivial things.
"Okay, where are you going, it's too ostentatious on the road, I'll get you there."
Father Marshall smiled with satisfaction and wanted to refuse, but because it was really bad for them to obstruct traffic, he immediately replied: "We are going to the church and talking to our colleagues." ”
The old sergeant, who didn't want to get into trouble, waved his hand and let his men get out of the way, and he invited Father Marshall to get into the chariot, and the knights rode behind.
The strange combination of police cars driving the way in front and tall horses and heavily armored knights following behind opened the eyes of the townsfolk of Pasadena.
There were police officers who opened the way, and there was no more evangelism on the road, so the road was very smooth.
The old sheriff placed Father Marshall at the door of the Pasadena church, and the twelve groups of tall horses behind him stopped at a gallop.
As soon as he pulled the horsewhip, the horse raised its front legs high, and then fell to the ground heavily, making several policemen who got off the car a little excited, wanting to sit on the horse and experience the thrill of riding.
"Thank you very much, may the Lord bless you!"
After getting out of the car, Father Marshall thanked the old sheriff.
The old sheriff waved his hand, his eyes also looking at the twelve knights, especially the obviously sharpened swords, and finally warned: "Father, I have to warn you that if you commit a crime with these swords, the bullet will pass through your armor!" ”
After saying that, he took the police and left in a police car.
Seeing the police go away, Father Marshall prayed for a moment for the dedicated policemen, and then walked to the cathedral, which was still lit up in the middle of the night.
The knights dismounted and walked towards the church door with the clatter of armor.
Knocking gently on the door of the church, Father Marshall stood in the doorway and waited with a smile.
After a while, the door of the church opened from the inside, revealing a balding man in a suit.
He was startled when he looked at the formation at the entrance of the church, and the light emitted by the golden crystal of the scepter illuminated Father Marshall's kind face, and also caused different shadow effects to appear on the twelve knights in armor, giving people a sense of atmospheric hesitation.
"You are ......"
Facing the old man's doubts, Father Marshall smiled and answered his questions, "Hello, I am Father Marshall, a priest of New Christianity, because I found that there are demons hidden in this town, so I came to try to destroy the demons, and by the way, I also came to communicate with the priest of the church." ”
The old man inside the door first showed a stunned expression, and then fell into a daze, his gaze wandered among the knights, "Actually, I am the priest of this church, you can call me Perez, huh...... Let's go in first. ”
Father Perez opened the door and let the strangely dressed group enter.
The soft dim light illuminated the entire church, and in addition to Father Perez, there were several people in the church.
Two women dressed in the black robes of nuns, and young men and women sitting on the benches, looking back at the side.
"Wow, wow!"
The clashing of the knight's armor woke something up, and the cry of a baby instantly made the quiet church noisy.
The young woman on the bench picked up her daughter to comfort her, but her eyes remained at the priest and the knight who walked through the door.
Could this be the person in question that Father Perez contacted?
Why does it feel so ...... So reliable?!
The tall knight was draped in silver-plated armor, and the repeated inscriptions on the Mithril armor were gorgeous and mysterious, and in the center of the lines was a peculiar symbol, like an open umbrella, and the inconspicuous red and silver were separated by a figure hanging in the center of the breastplate.
Even the shields held by the knights have such a picture, which may be a sign of the power of this group of knights.
The knights rushed in, and the last one closed the church door.
Father Marshall stared at the young couple sitting in the middle of the bench and wondered, "Miss Mia?" ”
The husband and wife in the church, who are not part of the church's clergy, are Mia and her husband Gordon, who were found in the document investigation, and for some reason, they showed up at the church at night instead of at home.
It stands to reason that in this period of entertainment poverty when black-and-white televisions are still sold on a large scale, young couples generally do not go out at night, but stay at home and sleep.
But now that the two of them are in the church, is it the influence of something related to the devil?
Father Marshall was in a delicate mood, he wanted to find something from the Church in this world that could exorcise demons, and then try to solve Miss Mia's problems.
Although they weren't sure if the demon was still pestering Miss Mia, they were free to move now, so if they couldn't find any trace of the demon in the known demon wounding incidents, they would ride their horses to other towns or states to find the demon's traces.
Hunting demons is the duty of their Holy Cult Army!
It is also the mission of being a member of the group!
"Uh, you know me?"
Mia looked at Father Marshall with a puzzled expression, wondering why this kind old man knew him, and Father Perez and Mr. Gordon also looked at Father Marshall.
Father Marshall smiled, "Of course I know, we have a connection with the federal agent who visited your home today, and we are actually here to try to help you get rid of the entanglement of demons, but I didn't expect you and your husband to appear here." ”
Father Perez, who was standing next to him, understood, and Mia had told him about the baby being taken away by FBI agents at noon.
He stood up and said, "It seems that you also know Father Marshall, after that Mr. Detective destroyed the doll, the demon lost its carrier, and although its power was weakened, it was able to exert the demon's abilities more freely. ”
Speaking of this, he looked at Mia with some sadness and said, "Breaking the shackles of the body, although the demon will soon return to hell, beating it will hurt the person who is favored even more frantically, and it will also break the rules, even if it is not a voluntary soul." ”
】
Father Marshall followed the content of Father Perez's words, after all, he had also been a clergyman for half his life, "I'm sorry, they shouldn't have meant it, I will do my best to protect the safety of Miss Mia's family until the demon returns to hell, or is destroyed by us." ”
"I hope ......," Father Perez sighed, his sad expression not subsiding.
Crackling!
At this moment, a strange wind suddenly blew in the spacious church, and all the lit candles were extinguished, even the light bulbs of the church were also extinguished, and the lobby was instantly plunged into darkness.
"Ahh
Mia, who was already flustered, let out a long scream at this time.
