Chapter 008: The End of Little Rock Village

Bronze oil platform, bean big spark, obscure church bishop's hall.

Next to York's corpse stood an old man in a gold-rimmed white robe, and if someone well-informed was present, he would tell you that this gold-rimmed white robe was worn only by the head of the Church of Light.

Seisman just looked at the corpse on the ground silently, oh no, his wandering eyes showed that he wasn't paying attention to the dead guy.

He was wondering how many years he hadn't been scolded.

Born into an aristocratic family, Sesman was sent to a convent at an early age, where he was taught and disciplined and was beaten and scolded. Later, under the impetus and means of Shili at home, his status in the Church of Light rose day by day, and finally after so many years of struggle, he was promoted from an ordinary clergyman to an adjutor.

It can be said that since he became a clergyman, he has not been scolded to his face.

But today, he was scolded by a group of farmers pointing at his nose and foaming at the stars.

And this was originally just an ordinary clergy supervision inspection. After he got off the bus at the entrance of the village, the situation was still normal, and those ignorant and backward villagers saw him with admiration and awe. He is all too familiar with this kind of look and this kind of scene, and at this time, if you go up and talk to them cordially, these farmers will be grateful and in awe of you.

Then he saw a large crowd of people rushing towards him excitedly, some of whom were not even wearing shoes. Oh, what a group of devout believers. He remembered that he stepped forward and solemnly said, "Hello devout believers, on behalf of the God of Light, I always extend my cordial greetings to you. ”

"Greetings to your mother!"

He was sprayed with foaming stars, and then a dozen fingers pointed at his face and cursed. All kinds of swear and slang with a local flavor, and some shoes flying towards you in the middle...... Then he understood where the barefoot people's shoes had gone.

"My lord, this is the murder weapon that killed York. Bernie said to a trance-stricken Cessman with a crossbow arrow.

Sesman looked at the crossbow in amazement, the material was ordinary, it seemed to be just ordinary wood, the workmanship was even rougher, and the most important part of the arrow tip was unevenly sharpened. The whole bolt is more like a toy made by a child playing a war game.

"What did you find?"

Bernie said: "In terms of the temperature of York's body, the time of death is within ten minutes. The place of death was at the confession booth, and the other party was supposed to pretend to be a believer and shoot at close range. ”

"That's all?" That wasn't what Sesman wanted to hear, he didn't care how the idiot on the ground died, he just wanted to be sure of the identity of the assassin. Pretend to be a believer, armed with crossbow arrows, and shoot at close range. That doesn't say anything.

Bernie hesitated, "Some brothers have found slight marks on the backyard wall, and there are secret doors on York's windows. If it was left by the Assassins, then the method is a bit professional."

The profession is naturally those assassins who take people's lives and collect bounties.

Sesman sneered, "Professional? are you saying that an assassin has traveled here for a long time and used this toy to kill an ordinary clergyman? ”

Bernie also knew that this result was a bit untenable, so he had to say, "Then we can only start with the crossbow arrows and check the surrounding hunters." ”

Sesman's voice became sharper: "Oh, the Orion of a small village kills people, and a team of Knights of Light can't find any useful clues. Are you trying to say that our Knights of Light are too wasteful?"

To say that Orion did it is even more untenable. Xiaoshi Village is located in the mainland, and most of the villagers depend on the land for their livelihood. That is, there is a small forest in the south of the village, and even if there are some hunters, it is just a trap to catch pheasants and the like, and it is not very clever. ...,

Bernie simply kept his mouth shut.

After two mocking sentences, Seessman fell into deep thought. The Knights of Light are naturally not waste, in fact, their comprehensive combat quality is higher than that of the average Imperial Knights. None of them could find any useful clues, which meant that the opponent was really a professional. Bernie's judgment should be fine, but what professional would be so careless? You must know that the bounty for killing a low-level clergyman like York will not exceed a gold coin. Is it really passing by?

Unbeknownst to the tangled Sesman, the professional they had guessed was vomiting in the woods not far from them at this time.

I have to say that killing people and killing chickens and ducks are really two different things.

Although before making a move, Tang En kept telling himself that the other party was a wicked person who should be killed, and that he was doing the right thing for heaven. But after seeing York literally die in front of him, his stomach still churned.

After reluctantly handling the scene, waiting for the villagers to arrive. He hurried out of the backyard and headed straight for the woods, throwing up in a daze.

In the church, a pensive Cessman suddenly spoke, "The time of York's death was just before we heard the bell?"

"Yes. ”

"Do you think this is a bit too coincidental......

Bernie's heart moved: "You mean ......"

As if he had figured something out, Sesman smiled: "Our itinerary is fixed, as long as you are interested, you can inquire about it." We walked slowly, but as soon as we reached the outskirts of the village, the bell rang. ”

"You're saying someone deliberately let York die like this in front of us?"

"More than that," Seisman said coldly, "York, this fool will die, but his exposed behavior has tarnished the honor of the Church of Light, and no one in this village will believe in the God of Light anymore." And if there are people who want to encourage these villagers to spread this matter......"

"It was horrible, it was a disaster. ”

Sesman said coldly, "That's right, and what's even more disastrous is that this thing will also become a stain on us." After all, I'm an inspector overseeing the clergy in this area, and damn it, we were right there at the scene of the incident!"

"Someone is going to throw dirty water on the adults? Damn, who is this?" Bernie completely understood what Sesman was thinking at this time, and couldn't help but sigh that it was not easy for people to be in high positions. And in this way, the professional means are also explained, after all, if someone really did it deliberately, then naturally a slightly professional person will be invited to do it, so as not to leave a flaw.

"It doesn't matter who we are now, it's what we should do now?"

Bernie was indeed clever, and immediately said, "Or do you say that York is already dead, and the people of the Wild Cult are disguised as him?"

Barbarian Religion, the religion of the Northern Wilderness tribes. The Temple of Light is a natural rival, and the believers of the two often never die when they meet.

Sesman said noncommittally, "Not a bad idea. However, the operation is difficult, and the farmer is ignorant, but not all fools. ”

"Then use psychic magic on the farmer to seal their memory. ”

"There is trouble, and if there is a sealing spell, there will naturally be a way to lift it, and it will be even more difficult to end at that time. ”

Bernie spread his hands and said, "My subordinates are ignorant and can't think of any good solutions." ”

Sesman smiled, "Think slowly, there's always a good way." Sometimes, we need to think differently, just as we deduce the identity of the murderer, and think deeper. ”

Think deeper, think deeper...... Bernie looked at the smiling Sesman, and suddenly there was a shiver of excitement. Could it be......

Seeing the changing expression on Bernie's face, Seisman raised an eyebrow and smiled. "Oh, it looks like you've got a good idea again. When I picked you to be a guardian knight, I praised you for your cleverness, and I'll listen to you when you say it. ”...,

Bernie muttered open his mouth, "To be, or to ...... ...... all the farmers All ....... ”

"What?"

Looking at Seysman's bottomless eyes, Bernie gritted his teeth and said, "Kill them all!"

Call...... After saying this, Bernie suddenly felt a strange sense of relaxation. This feeling is like the feeling he felt when he was a child, in order to prove to his peers that he was a man enough, pretending to be indifferent to kill a dog that he had raised for many years with a sword.

Sesman didn't speak, just smiled and patted Bernie on the shoulder.

Bernie leaned over and bowed his head in humble thanks.

"My lord, the villagers have gathered at the door of the church to ask you to come forward and give an account. "A Knight of Light came in to report the situation.

The cursing at the door grew louder and louder, deafening.

Bernie took a deep breath and said, "Guard the door and don't let them in." First to calm their emotions, just say that we have found out the eyebrows, and after ten minutes, announce the situation to them. ”

"Yes. ”

Also, after all of this, everyone gathered in the backyard of the church. ”

"Yes. The knight took the order and departed.

"Look...... sir"

"You're doing a great job. Sesman smiled, "The Holy Knights of Light Hall is going to recruit new blood, I have a quota here, and after this inspection, you can try it." ”

Bernie said in ecstasy, "Lord Xiexie. ”

The Holy Knight, that is the top knight of the Church of Light, is the backbone of the Church in terms of status and force. And the generation of these knights is all from the Sacred Light Knights' Hall. As long as you pass the training in it, you can become a holy knight.

"You deserve it. Immediately, Sesman took out a crystal that emitted a rich white light and handed it to Bernie, "Find a place to put it." ”

"Divine Punishment Crystal!" Bernie was shocked.

Sesman looked at the crystal very reluctantly and said, "Yes, this is the Divine Punishment Crystal." It's the only piece I've gotten in years, but it's a shame ......."

"Youβ€”Are you going to use this to destroy, destroy the village? ”

"Only then will no trace be left. Also, keep your knights shut. It's best to forget about it. Otherwise, it's you who is in trouble. ”

"Yes, Bernie will always be loyal to your lordship. ”

............

Five minutes later, the night sky was pitch black.

A white light suddenly fell from the sky and hit the chapel directly.

It's like a spark thrown into a pile of gunpowder. The chapel suddenly emitted a blinding white light, and the waves of air rolled in all directions, directly engulfing the entire village.

South of the village, on the edge of the woods. Bernie felt the strong wind blowing in his face, and looked at the scene in front of him in a daze.

Sesman frowned and said, "My carriage." Damn, don't let me know who framed me, or I'll put him on the gallows. ”

Sesman's ornate carriage was parked at the entrance of the church, too conspicuous to be transferred, and it had to be destroyed along with Little Rock Village.

Bernie felt a chill in his heart, more than 200 lives. But in Sesman's eyes, it wasn't even as good as a carriage.

White light comes and goes quickly. In a moment, the eyes are restored to purity. It's just that there is not even the slightest trace of Xiaoshi Village, and it has become a concave scorched earth.

Sesman said, "Make a Holy Spirit Tablet, and send someone to explain the situation to the knights of this fiefdom...... You don't need me to teach you why, right?"

"Yes! ”
