Chapter VI Participation in Action

"Good afternoon, Father Horos"

"Good afternoon, Ville."

"Have you spotted any strangers lately?"

"Vir, the people who come to the church are all devout followers of the Lord, there are no strangers here, and I suggest you consult Legira in this regard."

"Okay, thank you for your help, Father Horos" Outside the small Storm Church, the police officer in charge of the area, Weil, was talking to the church presiding priest, Father Horos. Legilla is a clergyman in the Church of the Night, and often finds fault with each other because of the differences in their beliefs about the relationship between men and women.

After getting the answer, Will walked to the Dark Night Church on the other side, the road became very muddy because of the carriages, cattle and sheep trampling, thinking that there were still a few places to run, Will complained to his boss.

After the end of the previous war, the Church of Steam began to gradually withdraw from the Rune area as the defeated side, and the Church of Night and Storm had another task of converting believers, and Vir went to the Church of Night to find Lady Legira comforting a middle-aged woman.

"Good afternoon, Lady Legira, what's going on?" Will asked, seeing this.

"Will, you're here just in time, her husband hasn't been home for a day, you're a policeman, can you please keep an eye on it?"

The woman next to her also cried that she and her husband had a quarrel yesterday about sheep farming, and that her husband had not returned from home and had to come to church for comfort.

Will thought for a moment and said what he thought, "Maybe somewhere you went to drink with your friends, right?" Now it's just that I'm angry and won't come back, I'll be back in a few days, madam, you have everything in your house, right? “

"Yesterday he went out directly after the quarrel."

"Madame, don't worry too much, there will be no news in two days, you can tell me again! I've been patrolling this area every day lately. “

After seeing off the lady, Will and Legira had their latest daily Q&A before saying goodbye and leaving for the next place.

On the road out of the village, Vir arrives at the last church in the village, where the mechanical emblem proclaims its identity, but due to the effects of the previous war, there are significantly fewer people here.

As soon as Ver wanted to enter, a priest dressed in the clergy of the Steam Church walked out, and Veil immediately greeted him when he saw him

"Father Canute, your face is still the same! Have you gone to the doctor to get it checked? ”

"Thank you, Will, for your attention, I have no problem with the Lord's protection." Canute prayed as he spoke, but Will wasn't too interested in that.

Because I have been in school for a few years and have seen a lot, I don't have much pursuit of faith, "I'm half a goddess believer at most!" Goddess above, please don't care about my rudeness. Will's heart also made a gesture of praying to the goddess, and then continued to ask

"What about Father Mead? I haven't seen him for the last few days, and Father Mead is usually in the village at this time to help people in need, but suddenly I haven't seen him for a few days, and I'm a little unused to it. ”

Usually because of Father Mead's presence, everyone has to find Father Mead to solve many problems, but these days are gone, seeing that he is the police, he has come to find him, the chicken is lost, and he has to help sell fish.

Chalfi Village is a relatively large village recently, the number of people is relatively large, the nearby retail households come here to trade, usually they don't have to investigate strangers everywhere, under the coordination of several churches, the management is also reasonable, now can only go back to the town police station every day with the night. Will sighed at the thought of this!

Father Knut was visibly stunned for a moment, then replied, "Mead has a mission from the church these days and has left here. ”

"Is that so? Did you see a stranger or anything like that today? Will was embarrassed to ask.

"You've been asking this for the past few days, have you encountered something?"

"The task assigned by the superiors is to report if I see a stranger, since there is no one today, then I will go back to the police station first, goodbye, Father Canute." After Vir finished speaking, he went to the roadside bar where the bicycle was stored and rode back to the police station, since the bicycle was vigorously promoted, the police station also assigned each police officer with one, that is, it is better to repair the road.

The orange setting sun shone on Knut's body, and the elongated figure covered the road until Verr was far away, and then walked back.

At 36 Wood Street in Port Priety, Hermione sat leisurely on the sofa and talked to Glore, who was like sisters in school together with glasses.

With the sound of the door opening and closing, Royce and Diego returned, Royce motioned for Hermione to come to the study together, and after the three of them went in and sat down, Diego talked about the investigation in the past few days, and the investigation in the eastern region did not find anything, excluding the people who reported it, and did not find much of a problem.

Royce's divination showed that the demons were still in the East, and he wanted Hermione to come up with an idea. Royce and Diego knew from Hermione's performance that night that it was definitely not as simple as it seemed, especially Royce, the knowledge of the Abraham family let him know that the age of the witch could not be judged from the outside, and the one in front of him may still know his ancestor "Mr. Men".

Hermione thought for a while, combined with the original memory to deduce that this demon may be seeking to promote Sequence 5, due to the early defeat of the demon and retreat into the abyss, several demon families are very low-key, and few people now know about demons, but the main hall archives of the major churches must have.

"I think, what was this demon marking before, there was a purpose to find it, he should be preparing for a certain ritual, the demon is the sequence 6 of the criminal path, and the ritual of promotion sequence 5 has to kill a lot of people, and the general ritual requires time."

"I think that's why these people are still in the eastern region, maybe they're almost unwilling, but their sequence 8 is called the Cold-Blooded, and what I called it at that time, logically speaking, has already been discovered, and they will leave absolutely sanely?"

"After Captain Voss killed the serial killer, they just walked away. I suggest looking out where there have been a lot of sudden disappearances recently, and let the investigators pay attention to the report, not to tell the reason, their intuition is very sensitive, and they will detect it. ”

"Then lock the area according to the number of missing people to divination, I always feel that this matter is not simple, you had better prepare more."

Hermione added that if you need divination, you can also find her, although I don't know how much power I can use now, and there is nothing to lose by trying.

"The number of missing people, in an area as large as Pritz, it is difficult for a few people to find it, for example, in the slum a few kilometers away, people may go missing every day, and who cares about the number of people who go in the factory in the morning and go out at night." Royce shook his head.

Diego replied, "Keep an eye on it, I'll check it out when the time comes, I'm suitable for this, just let the nature spirits help me inquire." “

"I almost forgot that you were a psychic, so it would be hard for you." Royce patted Diego on the shoulder

Hermione also reminded that if you find any traces, don't blindly follow them, you can't underestimate the ability of the criminal's path, and how many people on the other side don't know.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Glore's voice came, "Daddy, are you all okay?" Mom said it was time for dinner."

Royce got up and said, 'Let's go to dinner first, these things are in no hurry.' ’

Hermione agrees that it's useless to be in a hurry, and that hunting requires patience.

The substitute punishment, Ove listened to the report of his subordinates, "Captain, the church has sent a deacon to come, let us prepare first, the intelligence side of the night watch has already been eyebrows." ”

"You all get ready, continue to investigate and connect with the night watch."

Between the port area of Port Prietz and the city, there is a large area of old-fashioned wooden houses, or newly built simple shacks, where the poor, the factory floors, the war escapers, and the homeless are all gathered, and in one of the humble wooden houses, there is a dark shadow lying on the stomach of a man who is gnawing on something, and the person who has been eaten has long since lost his breath, and the blood stains the bed under him.

In a rare leisure time, Hermione and the Royce family went to Pritz Specialty Products Street to stroll, and they didn't want to go out, but they suddenly followed out, could it be the call of fate.

The small streets near the port area are filled with special goods brought from various parts of the northern and southern continents, and horse-drawn carriages come and go, and compared to other old streets, it is clearly built according to the urban plan left by Russell the Great, and the sewer expansion and the pavement of masonry make it very tidy.

Hermione saw the happy appearance of Royce's family, although she was also among them, she always thought of her family, and her heart was a little sour. I suddenly disappeared, and what would happen to my parents when they found out, and I didn't dare to think about it. And now my father and sister, are you still there?

At this time, a horse-drawn carriage carrying sacks of packaged goods passed by on the road, and the carriage was driven by a typical Southern Continental, with dark and yellow skin, and two similar-looking people sitting behind it.

Hermione noticed that they were looking at a few more of the people here, and it was normal for ordinary people to walk down the road and look left and right, and Hermione felt that there was an incongruity in them. Just as she was about to take a look, the carriage was already far away, and Hermione, the 'abominable primordial witch, perverted Chick,' greeted her in her native dialect on a daily basis.

I feel that something big is going to happen to Pritz, shouldn't it be those witch gentlemen who have found it, do you want to go to the Night Church to avoid it, after all, now that I have no power to restrain the chicken, I can't bear to come to a few demigods! When others come to another world, they have a bunch of hangings, and mine is not only sealed, but also a time bomb that doesn't know when it will explode.

In this way, it is better to let me be an ordinary person, Hermione is bitter in her heart.

"Hermione, what are you thinking" Royce noticed Hermione's somewhat absent-minded look.

"It's nothing, I just think it's a little weird, I can't say anything." Hermione quickly pulled the topic on.

"There's been a lot going on in Pritz lately, so don't put too much pressure on it, let's just do what we can."

"I've been going to the night watchman for a few days, and I've always felt like something was going to happen at home."

"Seeking the help of the Goddess is undoubtedly also a way, and you can also pray to our Lord the Fool, my Lord ... (Byam Silver Believers Missionary Screen)

"I think I will, thank you, Royce."

"Hermione, do you think my feather mask looks good?"

Glore was holding a mask with a blue feather on it, which he wore on his face, picked up the wooden scepter from the stall next to him, and held it up to the crowd

"My tribesmen, don't come to see your new chief." Hermione and the others saluted cooperatively, and Glore, who was recognized by everyone, removed his mask and pulled Hermione to look at other types of special items.

In a certain warehouse site in Pritz Harbor, a few southern mainlanders just took out a mirror, drew a symbol, and said something in their mouths, and after a while, a young and beautiful woman appeared in the mirror, with naturally scattered blond hair and clear green eyes showing her holiness, if Hermione remembered the events of those days, she would find one of the people who dug her own grave.

The Southern Continent people in front of the mirror were not affected like the two companions behind, and said, "Holy Maiden Tatiana, according to the description you said, we saw that person, and the spell also reacted when it passed. “

"Very good, I didn't expect you rose school people to be good, where is she?"

"She probably also noticed us, we are not in a high sequence, we have not tracked the specific location, and according to the transaction, we only need to help you determine where the person is, she is now in Pritz Harbor, I believe that it is not difficult to find her with your ability, this kind of life-giving behavior should not call us brothers, we still have God's task to complete."

"Don't be in a hurry? Anyway, you're going to die, so help us deal with it by the way. Tatiana's sweet voice came, with a kind of seduction.

The people of the Southern Continent were not affected, and replied, "We are just returning to the arms of God, this group of blasphemers have killed so many of our brothers and sisters in my hometown, blaspheming God's faith, this is God's wrath." I hope that Her Excellency will send the items as soon as possible. ”

After conversing with the woman in the mirror, the Southerner and two other companions entered a small room with unburned brown candles on a table surrounded by a circle of strange runes, in the middle of which a faint ball of light and silk thread wrapped in a pus-stained bandage. The Southerners and their companions knelt on the ground and prayed fervently, waiting for that moment to come.

Hermione and the Royces finished their stroll, and on their way back, they met Weken and Kelly, who were hurrying around a corner.

"Hey, Kelly, Weken, what's going on?" Royce asked them

"There was a murder in a building next to the slum, according to the police's on-site investigation, the deceased's whole body was destroyed, and the abdominal cavity was suspected to have been hollowed out, the captain suspected that the previous group still had accomplices lurking here, sent us over to investigate, and the captain asked you and Miss Hermione to go on a trip, there are arrangements tonight." After the two finished speaking, they walked to the scene of the murder.

After Hermione and Royce sent Wappel and Glore home, they went to the ship information consulting company, walked through the back door compartment, and came to the conference room on the ground floor, Hermione saw that Diego, Delphina, and Neeson were all here, everyone sat around the long table, and after greeting everyone, Hermione and Royce also found a place to sit down.

After a while, the small door at the back of the conference room opened, and the captain Voss walked up with the man who was looking to enter a midlife crisis, with deep eyes, curly hair, and sharp features.

Hermione thought that the chief of the intelligence department in the TV series was the most suitable for this type and did shady things.

After each of them sat down, the man spoke, "Hello everyone, first meeting, I am the person in charge of the church to deal with this matter, my name is Sims, according to intelligence, this time in Pritz Harbor is not only the people of the demon family, but also found traces of the Rose School of indulgence, this time we will join forces with the Storm Church to clean up the cultists in the city." Voss, remember to apply for 2-70 seals, let's talk about the arrangement. ”

After Sims and Vos arranged their tasks for tonight, they turned their eyes to Hermione to the side.

"Miss Hermione, you protect the person who uses the seal, the negative effect of using 2-70 will attach random rules to the user."

"I'm sorry for you tonight."

Sims and Voss respectively said,

Hermione nodded, following the two of them. The gift of fate has already marked the price, there is official protection, and you have to help the official to be a thug, it is better to have money to take it, and Hermione is embarrassed to mention this.

The substitute penalty on the other side is also in session,

Ovi and Deacon Fernando, who was sent to assist, arranged tonight's affairs,

"Ove, 2-44 will be used by you and me in turn, and the rest will come as arranged."

"Fernando, don't be reckless." Ove smiled

...

In the warehouse area, in the dim room, there was an extra piece of brilliant crystal in the hands of the Southern Continent, which was sealed with a strange liquid, and the corners of his mouth rose, "It's just tonight, let these blasphemers leave peacefully in their sleep." ”

The companion outside walked in and said, "Everything has been put away." ”

"Got it, you guys should also prepare, remember to beware of the witch guys, they don't know trust."
