Chapter 15: Start the Battle
Will pushed the cart into the village of Chalfi, and wondered why he didn't see anyone today. Usually at this time, there are people who drive sheep and sell vegetables and fruits! Will knocked on the tavern, but did not see Rajah. Originally, he was going to put his bicycle here, but it seems that he can only push it in.
There was a bit of a quiet feeling along the way, so that Will had to be vigilant, could it be that the murderer was exposed and began to take revenge on everyone? Turning his head to look at the Steam Chapel in the distance, Will felt a little flustered, and walked quickly towards the Night Chapel in front of him.
When he was about to walk to the Church of the Night, he noticed that there were some people here, and Vir saw Leggira at the door, and quickly ran over to ask, and the bicycle leaned directly on the haystack next to it.
"Legira, is something happening in the village? There are a little fewer people today. ”
"I'm a little weird, I'm going to take a look, I knew you'd be here today, too."
"Without further ado, let's go and take a look, and in case of accidents, let these people stay away or go into church."
After the two of them finished speaking, they quickly told the people nearby to stay away from this area or stay in the church first, and then walked to the tavern.
It didn't take much time for the penalty team to arrive at the Yorktown Police Station, and the punist's side lined up for Garnier, a middle-aged man whom Roddy and Hermione had never met, to participate in the heartbeat.
After seeing everyone, Sheriff Greg directly explained the situation in the village of Chalfi and his own speculation.
"The disappearance of people every once in a while is indeed very consistent." Hermione said to Diego, and then asked Greg "What about the nearby village, a little farther away." ”
"I'm sorry, ma'am, but we're overstaffed and it's beyond our ability to check on so many places."
When Diego heard this, he said goodbye to the sheriff and rushed directly to the village of Chalfi.
Hermione in the car did a brief divination again, and found that she pointed to the front of the road, and it seemed that it was indeed there! Then he spoke according to the information
"Guys, this time we may have to face a demon who may have completed his promotion, because there is a ritual in the criminal path that kills people intermittently, or it is possible that a serial killer is playing the role of a killer. Considering the worst-case scenario, it's a good idea to introduce your abilities and don't be impulsive if it's not necessary. ”
"Wouldn't the villagers be very dangerous, after all, these cultists are very fond of sacrificial rituals and the like." Roddy asked Hermione.
"I can't rule out this possibility, but everyone must not be impulsive, and only by staying rational can we save more people."
Hermione was also disgusted by these mad cultists, and used the hatred of ordinary people to sacrifice ordinary people and compare them to each other.
"Roles, rituals, it's the first time I've heard of you, Lady Hermione, you have a lot of mystical knowledge," Garnier replied, and the others thoughtful.
"If you have access to the high sequence, you'll know that." Hermione knew that since the church had certain restrictions on occult knowledge due to certain considerations, it was normal for low-order people not to know.
"Maybe I won't be able to fight in my life, so it's okay to be safe and stable, I really envy you young people." Garnier said with emotion, "I'm the Sequence 9 Singer, and Roddy is the Sequence 8 Angry People, don't look at Roddy's vicious and vicious appearance, in fact, he just doesn't know how to express it." ”
The strong Roddy on the side retorted to Garnier, "Garnier, if you can't speak, don't talk nonsense." ”
Next, let's find out that Diego is a psychic in the path of the corpse collector sequence 7, this kid is not bad, he does have the strength to be cold, Hermione muttered in her heart. Delphine is the Barbarian, on the other hand, on the Lawyer Pathway Sequence 8.
Finally, it was Hermione's turn: "You can be a hunter if you can." ”
Hermione took out the Concealment Charm and distributed it to everyone, "This can hide yourself for a while, and then I will add another effect, preferably to go around the back of the enemy and give them a fatal blow." ”
Garnier also took out a bunch of tin charms, which can use the wind to speed up his own speed, and he can also unleash lightning strikes on his targets. Divide some for everyone in case of emergency.
Hermione only remembered to herself, next time she had to be more energetic, and the knowledge she had gained hadn't been put to good use!
Yorktown is not too far from the village of Chalfey, and after half an hour, the road leads to a large village surrounded by green wheat fields and tobacco. A few wisps of smoke drifted from the chimney into the sky, and Hermione, Diego, and the others got out of the car here, allowing the accompanying driver to return to report the news.
"Something is wrong, it's already noon at this time, and there are only a few wisps of light smoke over the village," Garnier said of his own doubts.
"There was no one outside in the village, and even the animals around them were gone, at least not in the direction we saw." Hermione surveyed the village and said what she saw. "Prepare for us to hide in the past, there is a house there that smells wrong, it should be the church of the Steam Church."
Hermione asked everyone to use the Concealment Charm, and then took out the silver-blue crystal powder and sprinkled it on herself and the people around her, so that everyone's breath could be hidden for a short time.
"Miss Hermione, it's magic, if you don't mind, can you teach me when you go back?" Garnier's intellectual curiosity was piqued.
"We'll talk about it when we're done with these things." I also said in my heart, Mr. Garnier, this is the witch's knowledge of black magic, I don't think you will be interested!
Hermione and Diego led the group to the Steam Chapel. The closer they got to the church, the more they felt a bloody aura converge towards the house behind the church, and an evil black and red symbol appeared in Hermione's eyes.
"It doesn't seem good, the people around you may be sucked into the life force and soul of this thing, and eventually die silently." Hermione talked to the people around her. "I propose to break the process directly, without having to manage who else there is."
It doesn't matter if you go in by yourself, in case the other party is fishing inside, the low-order Delphina, Roddy, and Garnier can't bear it.
At this time, a house not far away caught fire, and some smoke came out, but the fire did not come out. Hermione and Diego judged that this was a distress signal, looked at each other, and made arrangements.
"Garnier, Delphina, Roddy, you go to the house over there to save people, be careful not to force yourself, and when you save people, run outside with them and go back to find support." Diego said quickly.
"This may be the Sequence 6 Demon of the Criminal Path, he is in the promotion Sequence 5, it is not for you to deal with, now Diego and I are going to destroy that sacrificial ritual." Hermione added.
The three of them wanted to say something, but Hermione said directly, "Without further ado, go quickly, be careful of the killer hiding in the shadows, and be careful not to be fished." ”
"Garnier, you have a lot of experience, please, Delfina cooperates with Garnier" Diego often interacts with the substitute punisher and knows each other well.
Hermione took out a small bag of black crystal powder and gave it to Garnier, "Sprinkle it on the target, the spell is frozen." "This is based on the frost part of the dark arts, and it should be able to resist for a while.
"Okay." Garnier led the two to the smoke-emitting house.
In the house behind the Steam Chapel, Gillaiard sat in a circle of light surrounded by strange symbols, the smell of blood permeating the periphery, the corners covered with blankets oozing blood, and Father Cnut's bloodshot eyes watched it all in front of the closed door.
The mouth muttered "How can you betray the faith of God, this is your punishment." ”
Outside the church, Hermione and Diego arrive.
"My spirit, frightened of the house in the back, the nearby spirit of nature has also run away, it should be there." Diego quickly probes around.
Hermione and Diego stalked cautiously.
"Actually, demons are very difficult to deal with, and they are easy to deal with, they are easy to get out of control." After Hermione finished speaking, she took out a tin charm in her left hand and exploded the glass window, and with her right hand, she condensed a flaming spear and threw it at Gillaiade, who was about to dodge.
Diego took out a tin charm and struck Gillaad with a lightning strike. Gillaad discovered the people outside the moment Hermione unlocked the spell and hidden, and the mental burden of his promotion had not been alleviated, and he could only dodge the incoming attacks.
Hermione's body was covered with flames that kept crashing into the room, and in an instant it was filled with flames, and Canute quickly ran out of the door the moment she saw the window break. Diego constantly uses gunfire and magic and spells to block Gillaade's hiding space.
Hermione condensed a fireball, took out the black flame magic powder, applied a spell, wrapped the fireball and threw it in, the fireball flame turned black and expanded violently. Hermione pulled Diego back, and the huge explosion caused the room to explode directly, and the church next to it in front of it half collapsed.
Hermione didn't expect her to be so powerful, and the dark magic really worked.
