"John I know what you want me to do, and I can do it for free, but the next time I sell the Montenegrin Weekly is in six days."

Joshua understood that John's purpose in coming here was nothing more than to use the Black Mountain Weekly to publish a missing person notice.

This was no loss for Joshua, and it was even okay to leave them a prominent page for free, after all, they were all from the same town.

The problem is that he only published the newspaper once yesterday, and it is simply impossible to print it again now.

"Tell me the information from the time of Little John's disappearance, and I can prepare a hundred missing person notices for you separately, and charge at cost price."

"Thank you, Joshua."

John also knew that it would be a bit difficult for Joshua to publish another newspaper, but he didn't expect Joshua to agree to make a separate missing person notice.

Mo said that Joshua only charged the cost, even according to the cost of 5 copper coins for a newspaper, he could give 5 silver coins through gritted teeth.

"Everyone is a friend, you just have to give me this number, and don't tell anyone."

Joshua told John a price that he didn't even want for a penny, which was indeed the cost price, after all, there were not as many twists and turns as newspapers.

"Anna, let's go out and bring the kids back."

If there were traffickers passing by, then Joshua couldn't sit back and watch the kids go out like this, and with his current reserves, it didn't matter if he didn't work for a few months.

The key is the safety of the children.

"Let's help too."

Lilith and Doris also came to help, in the presence of two strong men with the level of grandmasters, the scope of Black Mountain Town is not very large, and the convenience of magic and the mobility of the fighting spirit cooperate with each other, and the time to get the children back is not long, but ......

"Jessica is gone."

Anna's expression was sad, and with the help of Lilith's magic, most of the town of Black Mountain was in full view, but the purple-haired little girl named Jessica was still nowhere to be seen.

Joshua's face darkened, and Lilith heard the voice.

["What a daring maggot dares to touch my things, then the price is one hand. ”】

Is it just one hand?

Lilith thought to herself, she had thought that Joshua's way of dealing with those traffickers was to kill them directly, but now it seemed that the goddess's divine power was indeed affecting the other party.

Of course, for a group of human traffickers, Joshua will treat Lilith as if he didn't see it.

["All bones except one hand are broken."] ”】

Good guy, you might as well kill it directly, Goddess, your divine power will play a role.

In Lilith's opinion, Joshua was still in a state where he needed to be admitted to the hospital for observation, and now he can directly give a critical illness notice.

"Anna, you take the kids to make a missing person notice, and I'll go find Jessica."

With such a sentence, Joshua left the church without looking back, and at this time he had no clues, but he always had a way to find the traffickers.

[Joshua didn't care much about Jessica's safety, he was just a person with a talent for magic, and what really made Joshua angry was the maggots that infested him. 】

Say less about this kind of nonsense, give me some clues.

Joshua is just an ordinary person, and he doesn't have the kind of observation that Holmes can say is completely open, but the Destiny text does.

[Black Mountain Town is not large, with Joshua's forgiveness power can cover most of the area, although it cannot directly extract the negative emotions of others, it is much easier to use it to perceive the direction. 】

Negative emotions?

Joshua understood that although the power of forgiveness required the repentance of the other person to extract the negative emotions into original sin, it was not difficult to perceive which negative emotions the other person was at the moment.

With Joshua's mental power at this time, it was not enough to expand the scope of the power of forgiveness to all of Black Mountain Town, but the power of original sin last night was still a little, which was enough.

Joshua almost poured out the power of original sin, leaving only the amount that could unleash a cleansing flame.

However, the effect was obvious, and at this moment, his perspective rose to the sky and overlooked the entire town of Black Mountain, and all kinds of emotions were in his eyes.

Anna was in the workshop with the children printing missing person notices while worrying about Joshua's safety, and the drunken man in the tavern got up dazedly and didn't know what was happening, and Lilith followed Joshua some distance behind him.

And also...... A gloomy man and a child in a state of fear.

Got it.

Joshua's pace quickened, he didn't care about Lilith following him, after all, it would be overkill to let the two strong men of the church look at the church.

The Holy Maiden may have been following her for the safety of herself and the children.

Joshua didn't care what Lilith's purpose was, he just wanted to get to the target as soon as possible.

"Stinky boy, why did you wake up so quickly, I knew it was time to take more medicine."

The man's cursing came from the filthy alley, and it sounded harsh to Joshua, who was preoccupied with perceiving the negative emotions around him.

He could feel the man's malice, and the child's panicked look.

"Who?"

Joshua did not hide his steps, and the already nervous man naturally noticed that someone was approaching for the first time, and at this moment of negligence, the child also took the opportunity to bite the man.

"Father Joshua."

"Don't be afraid, I'll get you out soon."

Joshua was not in a hurry, this was a dead end, he blocked the door so that the trafficker could not leave, and the trafficker took this opportunity to stun the child with potion again.

"Priest? Can you treat today's events as if you haven't seen them? ”

The gloomy man said this, but his hand touched two crystal clear things like eggs.

During the mission, the adults in the organization used to say that if they met the clergy, they could use them without thinking.

So this man seems to be negotiating, but in fact he has no intention of negotiating.

As long as Joshua is near, the only end is death.

"This one seems to be pretty handy."

Joshua rummaged through the garbage heap, and finally pinched a sturdy wooden stick in his hand, and the best thing to deal with garbage was garbage.

Especially from that moment just now, the other party's negative emotions became stronger and stronger.

This is not the attitude of a person who wants to negotiate terms, and of course Joshua has no intention of letting him go, especially since there is a powerful saint not far away who is secretly observing.

"Now, then, repent."

Joshua dragged the stick in the direction of the man, and as he stepped into the shadows, no one could see what his face was.

"Repentance? I will repent, as long as you can spare me. ”

The gloomy man didn't know why he was in a cold sweat, and the priest in front of him said words to make him repent, but he came with a wooden stick in his hand.

The uneasiness caused him to crush the "egg" in his hand, and then something like a black mist struck Joshua.

These "black mist" are a swarm of insects that burrow into the bodies of their enemies and bite their flesh to lay eggs, using them as food and breeding grounds, which is an extremely terrifying thing.

But fortunately, the gloomy man has the mark carved in the organization, and he will not be treated as an enemy, but Joshua will not be treated like this.

Of course, he doesn't need such treatment.

Directly igniting the last original sin in the body, and at the same time extracting the killing intent at this time as the original sin, this is not only to replenish energy, but also Joshua understands that he can't kill this person yet.

The illusion of human traffickers is futile, if it cannot be eliminated in one go.

"Buzz~"

The sound of the bugs flapping their wings was heard, and the obvious malice was very conspicuous in Joshua's keen perception, so burn it.

"Quiet."

There is no need to chant any incantations, and directly ignite the sin cleansing flame with original sin, although these insects will not commit the sins condemned by humans, but they are still guilty in the judgment of the sin cleansing cangyan.

Killing is a sin in itself, even if it is for its own continuation, and it is for this reason that the sin is destroyed.

It's too harsh.

But this harshness is not bad for human traffickers.

"What is this?"

The dim alley was lit by the flames, and the gloomy man was obviously panicked, usually he used this thing to be invincible, but now his killer weapon was wailing in the flames.

No, you have to run away.

It's a common knowledge in this world that magicians get caught up in close combat, so he draws his dagger and strikes at Joshua, and a blow awaits him.

"Bang~"

The gloomy man flew upside down in complete confusion, while Lilith, who was hiding in the shadows, could see clearly.

Joshua's move was a Templar sword.

Doris was a member of the Templar Order, and as a saint, Lilith had seen Doris compete with others more than once, so she could not be mistaken about this.

But the question is, where did he learn his sword skills?

"Father Andre once said that I don't have the talent to cultivate Douqi, so he warned me that I can't learn the skills and add to the problem, but you shouldn't be disobeying his teachings."

In the light of the pale blue flames, Joshua just beat him with a stick, but the gloomy man had no other words than screaming.

It is impossible to repent, and I will never repent in this life, after all, I have all come out to do a cult, so who would repent.

"It's a hard mouth."

Joshua stopped, he looked at the blood on the stick, and the man did not look like a human form, and if he used violence again, he would really die.

He is not afraid of taking human life, and with his position in Black Mountain Town, there is a way to get away with killing someone, let alone killing a human trafficker.

Joshua wants the whereabouts of the children, so you can live a little longer, but this time of "living" is not easy.

"Have you ever thought about a question, though?"

The blue flame reappeared in Joshua's hand, and by constantly extracting his killing intent, he had the original sin that ignited the sin of purifying the flame.

"After the baptism of fire, the last part of your body that remains, is it your mouth? I'm curious. ”

The blue flames crept up the man's body, and the howl echoed through the alley, but the wail did not attract anyone's attention, and Lilith came behind Joshua.

"I put a soundproof barrier, no one will come, but if he dies, it will be troublesome."

"Well, I'll control the heat, and thank you."

Joshua looked back at Lilith, and his eyes were once again occupied by calmness, and a large number of negative emotions were turned into the power of original sin, making him as calm as a machine at this time.

["Death? That was the final reward, and it would be a bit of a waste to give it to him at this time. ”】

Lilith listened to the "truth" echoing in her ears, and only for a moment she was temporarily on the same side as the devil.

The rampant nature of the bad guys lies in the fact that the good guys lack the means to sanction the other party, and Joshua at this time, although not necessarily a good guy, has enough means.

Lilith, as the first test of the power of the flame, she clearly understood how powerful this flame was, if it was Joshua last night, this man would have been ashes at this time.

Where is the wailing "surplus".

In just one night, Joshua was able to use his powers, which is probably what he called genius.

"Repent, I repent, so give me a good time."

"Okay, let's start repenting now."

Joshua pressed the man's head, and then the pale blue flames began to subside, giving the other party a chance to breathe, and at the same time, all the negative emotions in the man's body were withdrawn, which was a proof of the other party's sincere repentance.

Forcing sincerity is also sincerity, at least much more sincere than the "Great Memory Recovery" that the Templars excelled at.

"Now tell me who you are, where the children have gone, and what your purpose is."

"We are iron-blooded...... Brotherhood, recently received ...... The commission is ......"

The man had begun to lose his mind, but under Joshua's cold gaze, he said his purpose in fits and starts.

The Predator Brotherhood, a group of cultists who worship violence and blood, and blood sacrifices are their favorite ritual.

"I haven't heard of anyone in the Brotherhood of Iron Blood who controls plasma worms, and your blood sacrifices aren't picky, but this time you clearly have a clear goal."

Lilith relayed the information she knew to Joshua.

"That's ...... A black-robed man ......"

The man continued to confess, apparently terrified of returning to the flames.

According to him, the black-robed man was not from the Iron Brotherhood, but had a deal with the higher-ups, in which collecting children was the man's request.

As for the purpose, it's not that a little minion like them can know it.

"The last question, where are the children?"

"In ......"

The man hesitated, but under Joshua's gaze, he only thought about a certain direction, and at this moment, a strong magic came from his body.

"Boom~"

Flesh and blood, blooming a bright flower.
