Chapter 246

"Taking advantage of the ...... of trial Do you want to seek power and profit? ”

Hearing this, Xiao couldn't help but be stunned, couldn't help but look at Herrell, and asked:

"It's ...... Are you sure? ”

"......" Herrell still had that grim face, silent, so that people could not see what he was thinking now.

"Of course it's true, I sent someone to investigate." The gentleman still had that unfathomable smile, and his eyes flashed with interest, "In other words, this is not the first time that you have used the name of the evil god to conduct a judgment, taking advantage of people's fear of the evil god, you have raised a lot of wealth, and the power of a dictator, right?"

It was so big that even the Pope was scared, and you were punished for coming to this town, right? It's just that...... I didn't expect the evil god to come again, it's like...... The evil gods are the ones you have brought with you. ”

The meaning of the gentleman's words is already very obvious.

Even Xiao Yi understood, and he nodded thoughtfully:

"I see, the so-called evil gods, don't they actually exist? That's just a lever this guy uses to make a profit...... All of us were deceived by him. ”

What Xiao can understand, it is naturally impossible for others not to understand.

The men brought by Herrell had bewildered, questioning expressions on their faces, and they were whispering, hesitating whether or not to continue with Herrell's orders.

......Seeing that this situation was unfavorable to him, Herrell was compelled to speak: "It is true that I have indeed executed judgments in a distant land, and this man is true. However, one thing you should understand is that I was not arranged to be here, I came here of my own free will! ”

"So what?" The gentleman asked with interest, "What does this mean?" ”

"I have indeed met an evil god." Herrell said with a firm look in his eyes: "It is precisely because of this that I will chase here, just to completely solve the evil god!" And, if you think about it, you should know that too, right? The name of the Evil God came from the Glore family, before I came here to take office, not a fabricated existence. ”

“……！”

Hearing these words, the people behind Herrell showed a look of sudden realization.

"And ......," went on to Jerel, "what is happening now...... Those terrifying monsters are obviously beyond the power of ordinary people, there is no doubt about it! It's the work of an evil god! As for believing it or not, it's up to you to judge, but ...... I am bound to solve the evil gods! ”

These words also made Herel's subordinates firm in their determination again.

“…… Is it? However, the gentleman was still unmoved, and he continued: "In that case, then you should be cautious in what you say and do, after all, the upper echelons of the Holy See do not seem to trust you, and if you come casually, maybe someone will report you." ”

The gentleman's threat is self-evident, and ...... Herrell understood that the man in front of him was really capable of delivering what he said.

“…… Trouble guy. Herrell muttered in a low voice, and then continued: "Say whatever you want, but now that you are suspected of having links with the believers of the evil gods, don't think about acting willfully, in the future, all your actions will be monitored by us, and this place must also be sealed and investigated." ”

“…… Whatever you want. The gentleman spread his hands nonchalantly, "It would be nice if it could prove our innocence." ”

In this way, the gentleman's club was blocked, and Xiao Yi and the gentleman had to leave temporarily.

Although they were still worried about the mother and daughter who were still hiding in the basement of that place, the two had to leave so far.

And...... Behind them, sure enough, there were people following, monitoring their words and deeds at all times.

Next, I'm afraid I won't be able to get close to it for a while, and I won't be able to know the situation of the mother and daughter, otherwise it is very likely that they will be discovered.

I just hope they can hold on during this time......

At this time, the gentleman seemed to see the worry in Xiao Yi's eyes, and said:

"Don't worry, they won't be able to find the entrance to the basement, I can guarantee you, they really haven't found anything, so they will naturally relax their supervision there, and then send someone to pick up the mother and daughter."

The mother and daughter don't need us to worry about it for the time being, let's worry more about ourselves now, we are suspected of being believers in evil gods, we should be careful in everything we say and do...... But then again, I didn't expect that one day I would be suspected of being a believer in an evil god, which is really funny. ”

The gentleman still looks like he has nothing to do, but he is very happy, but Xiao Yi can't be like him now.

“…… Do evil gods really exist? Xiao couldn't help but whisper to himself.

Hearing Xiao Yi's words, the gentleman paused slightly, then straightened his face slightly, and said to Xiao Yi:

"I don't know, but I've heard that there is indeed some kind of monster appearing, and I'm afraid that even if it is not an evil god, there is something terrible. However, I advise you not to think nonsense, so as not to cause any strange hallucinations, whether the evil god exists or not is not something we can figure out, what we have to do is to save ourselves in this almost crazy trial...... If that guy pushes too hard, I can report it and let the Holy See upper echelons take care of him.

But then again...... It's funny that the upper echelons of the Holy See, who are the agents of the faith in God, don't believe in evil gods...... It's so funny that I can't help but laugh! ”

As he spoke, the gentleman couldn't help but laugh again.

"...... doesn't care what this guy is laughing at, but Xiao also thinks that what he said has some truth.

Compared with whether the evil god exists, it is better to worry about yourself and the situation of the people around you, that is the most important thing.

As a result, Shaw gave up thinking about it and immediately prepared to go back to Cal, and the gentleman said that he needed to do more to deal with the current situation in this town.

Then, the two said goodbye.

……

The trial on the side of Xiao Yi's church also seemed to have stopped for the time being, and the people gathered there also left for the time being.

Shaw didn't see Carl and Gladys, and he didn't know where they had gone.

So, he had to go to Carl's house.

When he came to the door of Carl's house, Xiao also found that the door was not locked, and it was not even closed, but it was just hidden.

Xiao Yi pushed open the door and walked in, only to find a person sitting paralyzed on the sofa inside.

Xiao Yi looked intently and found that it was Carl.

“…… Carl, are you back? What about Gladys? Xiao also asked.

“…… It's Xiao Yi. ”

Carl barely straightened up and looked at Xiao Yi.

As a result, Xiao Yi realized that it hadn't been long since Carl became a little stranger.

His expression at the moment was extremely haggard, as if he was several years old, and his whole person exuded an aura of decadence.

"How...... What's wrong? What's going on? Seeing this, Xiao Yi couldn't help but be surprised.

"......," Karl let out a long sigh, "I couldn't bring back Tess, they said that Tise is a cultist and needs to help them continue to find other cultists...... What bullshit cultists! What a bullshit evil god! Why should I take my family away from me because of such an ethereal thing! ”

Carl was about to smash something to vent his emotions, but he paused, and then collapsed on the couch again, and his whole body was about to sink in.

Laetitia...... I also treat her as family. "That's why I've been telling her not to perform any more rituals on her faith," Carr said, "or it will hurt her." Here, after all, it is a crime to have another faith, to be imprisoned by the Holy See and to be forced to believe in their god...... That's how it should be. But, but! Why is this happening? Why did Laetitia die? Why was Gladys taken away? Why...... Will it turn out like this? She clearly believes in not an evil god, why did she become a believer in an evil god? ”

Listening to Carl's words, Xiao couldn't help but think of something.

"Maybe...... The nameless and formless unknown god she believes in is the evil god that is now plagued by this town. ”

Shaw also remembered that Laetitia had told him about the legend of the evil god.

She said that the flesh-like stone that the eldest son of the Glore family brought back was a gift from God.

And the name of the evil god also comes from that stone, and Lyitia believes in only the nameless and formless unknown god, which means that ...... Are the two actually the same existence?

In other words, Laetitia's belief in the so-called evil god from the beginning was the so-called evil god! She is indeed a true believer in evil gods!?

“……！” Xiao Yi's heart was surprised by this.

However, in this way, many things can be explained, such as those monsters...... It came after Laetitia's arrest.

Moreover, she herself has become a strange appearance.

One more thing...... Shaw also remembered that Herrell had said that in the total murder of the Glore family, only one thing had disappeared, and that was the flesh-like stone.

Laetititia had said that the fleshy stone was a gift from the gods, and that she had gained strength from it...... In other words, is the tragedy in the Glore family also related to her?

Xiao Yi's heart was suddenly full of thoughts.

"Yes...... Is that so? When Carl heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and his facial features became a little distorted for some reason.

Then, he stood up again, turned his back to Xiao Yi and said:

"Anyway, it's pointed, and there's no point in thinking about that, so let's think about what to do next...... I'm sorry, I'm a little tired today, so let's go rest first, Xiao Yi, you can do whatever you want. ”

With that, Karl immediately returned to his room and slammed the door shut.

"Ah...... Well. Xiao Yi nodded slightly and looked out the window.

At this moment, it's not too early, so it's better to rest early.

A lot of things happened today, and there were too many things that Xiao Yi couldn't figure out, and he felt a headache just thinking about it.

Xiao Yi simply decided to go to sleep and recover his spirits.

So he went back to his room, fell into bed, and fell asleep......

However, this night, Xiao also did not rest well...... Because he was in the haze, he heard strange noises.

It was a subtle, sounding like someone was talking.

Xiao can also hear this small voice because...... The voice was close to him.

“……”

Xiao Yi's consciousness gradually cleared up, straightened up, opened his eyes, and looked around.

In the dimly lit room, nothing could be seen clearly, only the outlines of objects could be faintly seen.

However, it was precisely because his vision was restricted that Xiao Yi's other senses also became sensitive, and he immediately discovered that the source of the strange sound came from outside the door.

Outside the door, there seemed to be more than two people, but many people talking about something.

As for what he was talking about, Xiao also listened carefully, but he still couldn't hear clearly.

It is precisely because of this that Xiao Yi feels a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Because...... Since those people are discussing in front of their own door, the discussion is generally about themselves in the room.

They're talking about ...... What to do...... No, kill yourself?

Xiao Yi didn't know, and it was precisely because he didn't know that the unknown fear of maybe when he would hurt himself made Xiao Yi's heart so uncomfortable.

“…… Who is it? So, Xiao Yi couldn't help but shout out the door.

The sound outside the door was interrupted for a moment, but then it sounded again, still so subtle, inaudible, but clearly present.

plucked Xiao Yi's nerves like plucking the strings.

"......" Xiao Yi was really a little unbearable to feel like this, and immediately got up and pushed the door open, "You ......!" Huh? ”

The moment he pushed the door open, Xiao was stunned.

Because outside the door, there was no one, only darkness. The few people who should have been here disappeared without a trace.

"Is this ......? Belch! ”

Xiao Yi was wondering what was going on, and suddenly! A figure dangled in front of him!

Xiao Yi hurriedly took a few steps back and distanced himself from him, and was about to meet the enemy, but ...... There was still no one outside the door.

Xiao Yi was stunned for a moment.

Then, in the darkness of nothing, a figure flickered by.

Xiao Yidingqing took a look, and only then did he realize that the dangling figure was ...... It is a hanged man, his body swinging with a rope.

"Hanging? Who...... Hanged? ”

Xiao Yi hurriedly wanted to go out to check the situation, but at this moment! He suddenly felt a chill in his neck!

Xiao Yi instinctively hurriedly turned his head to look behind him!

A lumpy creature of muddy flesh was hanging from the ceiling, its flesh still dripping to the ground.

It has several withered heads and countless eyeballs, and ...... Xiao also saw Laetitia's eyed face.

“……！”

At the moment when Xiao Yi was stunned, the monster had already protruded two long whip-like tentacles and attacked Xiao Yi!

By the time Xiao Yi reacted, it was too late to dodge!

He didn't have time to think about anything, so he instinctively raised his hands to resist!

And then...... The tentacle directly penetrated Xiao Yi's body like this.

“…… Huh? ”

Xiao Yi looked at the tentacles that passed through his body, and the painless feeling, and finally thought of something.

"I see...... It's an illusion again. ”

That wonderful everything dissipated in an instant, Xiao Yi's legs also lost the strength to support him, and he sat down on the ground with a bitter expression on his face.

"There's that kind of monster in reality, so that I can't suspect it's a hallucination when I see that kind of thing? Even at this time, are you still unwilling to let me go? ”
