——————————————————————————————————————————

In this magical world, people who believe in righteous gods are not terrible, but those who are terrible are those who believe in evil gods. This is not because believers in the righteous God are good people, but because the righteous God most likely does not really exist.

But the evil gods are different, except for some Muggles who pretend to be gods, most of the remaining evil gods are played by powerful dark wizards.

Thinking about the ghouls he had seen before, Rosie had a plan in his heart:

This place is likely to be the testing ground of some dark wizard.

She didn't think that the power-hungry dark wizards would be so bored as to fool the Muggles.

Mixed thoughts instantly turned from his brain, and Rosie, who didn't want to entangle him more, sincerely apologized, and then asked instead:

"Mr. Priest, we have a companion named Sherlock Holmes, he must have arrived here in advance, I wonder if you have an impression of him?"

Sherlock's image is roughly described.

"I haven't seen this man."

Shaking his head slightly, the priest with a slower expression suggested, "You can go to the castle of Seit and inquire, maybe he didn't enter the village, but went straight there." ”

Is this fooling me to go to the castle?

Rosie rolled her eyes inwardly, not intending to take his advice.

At this moment, an exclamation suddenly came from Pierre's house.

It was the voice of Erin, who had quietly followed Pierre into the room by virtue of her invisibility.

"Irene!"

Without thinking much about it, Rosie immediately drew his wand and rushed in.

As soon as she entered the door, a putrid smell came to her nostrils.

Rosie frowned unconsciously, and her eyes moved from the staircase to the second floor opposite, and she saw Erin standing at the door of the restaurant around the corner, covering her mouth and retching.

Finding her running in, Erin resisted her nausea and stopped her: "Sissy, don't go and see!" ”

At the same time as her words fell, Pierre, with a bloody thread between her teeth, a boning knife in one hand and a leg bone in the other, spun out of the dining room.

The leg bones look slender and thin, with a smooth bone surface, which is supposed to be from a woman.

At the moment of seeing the leg bone, Rossi subconsciously speculated about its origin.

"Horse ...... Pull...... He...... Yes! ”

At this moment, the strange pronunciation of the priest's elongated intonation suddenly sounded outside the house, a language that Rossi had never heard before.

Pierre replied with a long voice in the same language, and then with a fierce look in his eyes, he raised his boning knife and swung it.

"Faint!"

Rosie, who had been prepared, would not let him succeed, and a dark red light instantly emitted, slamming him against the wall.

"Horse ...... Pull...... He...... Yes! ”

Strange and obscure pronunciations came one after another, and a wave of footsteps surrounded this way.

The villagers of this village have come around??

No sooner had the thought crossed Rosie's mind than he saw a triangular mark on Pierre's chest, which should have been knocked unconscious by the spell.

Immediately after, he staggered to his feet, picked up the boning knife that had fallen beside him, and was about to attack again.

Well? Is it an ancient script?

She had seen it when she was at Hogwarts, so it wasn't a stranger to it.

"Freezing Spell!"

The ice crystals containing magic power lit up at the tip of the wand in an instant, and with a flick of the wand, the dense frost and snow immediately froze him into a humanoid ice sculpture.

"Bang!"

The door of the room was slammed shut, and Rosie turned his head to look, only to see Fan, who had inserted the latch on the door, taking a few steps back, his bow and crossbow aimed at the door vigilantly.

"There are a lot of villagers out there, all of them with weapons, and they don't look right!"

"It's really not right, they have magic marks on their chests, and they all exude the aura of black magic all over their bodies."

Erin, whose head had been digging out of the wall for a moment, shrank back and casually suggested, "Sissy, should we get rid of them?" ”

"Let's see, let's get out of the way of them first."

Rosie immediately shook his head and vetoed, "I don't know what is going on yet, so I'm not in a hurry to do it." ”

As she spoke, she waved her wand to transform the doors, windows, and walls of the first floor into a single unit.

"Let's go upstairs and have a look!"

Rosie, who had probably guessed what was in the dining room, naturally didn't want to lose his appetite, and vigilantly walked up the stairs leading to the second floor in the living room.

Seeing her walking towards the stairs with Erin, Fan volunteered, "I'll search on the first floor." ”

With an "um", Rosie went up to the second floor.

On the second floor is an open-room bedroom, and just up the stairs is a painting of a young man with open arms, and around this man, a group of ghouls are prostrate.

Obviously, this is their belief in evil gods.

After seeing the face of the person in the painting, Rosie lost his voice and called out his name.

"Ixis?"

"You know him? Who is he? ”

"I've seen a picture of him in the Ministry of Magic, his name is Axis, a notorious dark wizard in history, and the Dementors were created by him."

After a pause, Rossi guessed: "This village, I'm afraid it's probably another experiment of his." ”

At this moment, there was a sudden "bang" sound downstairs, and for a moment it seemed as if the whole house was shaking.

What's going on?!!

Rosie walked quickly to the window and looked out, only to see a group of villagers with giant axes and hammers under them, smashing the wall hard.

Spotting her by the window, a villager shouted, then threw the axe in his hand at him.

"Armor protection!"

Erin, who was following Rossi, immediately stabbed the Iron Armor Charm, bouncing off the whirling axe.

"What are the people out there doing?" At this time, Fan asked in a muffled voice as he walked up the stairs.

"They're smashing walls, but don't worry, there's no threat for now."

Rosie said with a smile, and with a wave of his hand, thickened the wall by another ten centimeters, "Did you find anything downstairs?" ”

"There was a female corpse in the restaurant who had been dead for about seven or eight days."

"Margaret?"

"No, that's the mistress of this house......"

Fan, who didn't look very good, shook his head, then raised his hand and shook a crumpled piece of paper between his fingers, "The content of the paper was written by Pierre, and judging from the content, this village has a tradition of sharing the corpses of the dead as a sacrament and sacrificing them to ghouls. ”

"Don't! Stop it! ”

Hearing this, Erin suddenly retched again.

And Rosie, who was next to him, remembered the appearance of Pierre he had just seen, and couldn't help but feel a little churning in his stomach, so he had to forcibly change the topic to divert his attention:

"And what's the matter with the demonic sigils on their bodies? Is there a mention of it on that paper? ”

Fan shook his head, "No, but I guess it's the product of some kind of ritual magic." ”

As his words fell, the ears of the two Rossi suddenly sounded with the sound of the system's prompt:

"Ding, go to the castle of Seit and find and destroy the ritual magic."
