Volume 1 Winter in Halma Chapter 129 Blockade Zone
"What do you do at church?"
Gao Fodri wondered.
"As a professional pastor, going to prayer at least once a week is the most basic professional quality. ”
Andu put up his cane with a serious expression.
After arriving in the South End with the reluctant barbarians and the uninterested Robert, Andu habitually glanced at the rickshaws around him.
What a great means of transportation!
But I haven't gone out for a walk for a long time, and occasionally I take a walk by myself, and it seems to feel good?
After a total of an hour and a half, Andu finally arrived at the familiar Southside church.
What is different from the past is that there are not many people who come to pray in the church today, and the church staff are really busy walking back and forth.
After a simple search, Andu saw an acquaintance.
"Big Mouth" Barney is a well-known figure in the church, and he is so outstanding and eye-catching wherever he is.
"Hurry up! What are you rubbing!?"
"Today's matter is very important, has it delayed you to bear it!!"
"This way, this way! Bring more holy water, and I don't want you to spend money!!"
“......”
Seeing Barney, who was in charge of the command, jumping up and down with an anxious expression, Andu felt inexplicably amused.
"What are you up to?"
Far away, he shouted at Barney.
"Oh, you're here!" Barney was startled, then overjoyed, "Just right, help!"
Andu couldn't help muttering in his heart, and his mouth was also curious: "What happened?"
"Something's wrong!!!" Barney said with a horrified expression, gesturing with his hands, as if to express the seriousness of the matter more clearly.
"Evil thing?" Andu's originally good mood suddenly sank.
There seem to be too many incidents of evil things lately. What bad news!
Gathering his thoughts, Andu said as calmly as possible: "Tell me more details." ”
Barney swallowed, "It's that abandoned neighborhood in the South Side, where a corpse was found!"
Barney pointed to the southwest and continued, "Originally, it was nothing, but after the purifiers of the Episcopal Church went to check it, it turned out to be mutated!"
"When is the matter resolved?" the cane made a crunch as it touched the ground, and Andu's expression grew serious.
"The morning's events, supposedly under control, are about to undergo the final purification, and we're preparing the materials we need!" Barney said nervously.
"Morning?"
Andu took out his pocket watch and looked at it, it was already past one o'clock in the afternoon.
It stands to reason that purifications are all timely, so why hasn't they been dealt with yet?
Barney said with a frightened expression: "I heard that the Fallen One was mutated after it died, and it took a whole team of purifiers more than an hour to subdue it, but it seems that there was a change later, and several people were injured!"
After looking around and seeing that no one was noticing him, Barney leaned closer and whispered,
"I heard that we need to use the holy relics from the Bishop's Church, and I guess they have been delivered to the scene now!"
Relic!!
Andu's heart was shocked, the holy relic is usually the main church of a city, and it is used to guard the items of the church center, what happened to make it necessary to use the holy relic!?
The uneasiness about the unknown in his heart made Andu's heart irritable, and after a few seconds of silence, he slowly spoke,
"Where is that neighborhood?"
Barney was shocked, and quickly grabbed his hand and said excitedly: "You can't go, it's too dangerous there now!"
Andu gently shook Barney's grip on his palm, and as usual, smiled brightly.
"I have items left for me by my teacher, don't worry. ”
......
"Do you really want to go?" said Robert, with some hesitation.
"Hmm. Andu said simply.
"But it's actually ...... with us It doesn't matter. Robert frowned.
The pace of progress gradually stopped, and Andu looked back at Robert, his expression unpredictable.
"Do you remember, that necromancer?"
Robert's body suddenly froze, as if it had been struck with a hammer.
"Did you find anything?" the thief guessed inquiringly.
"I think a lot of things have been weird lately. ”
Andu's eyes were deep and complex, and his tone seemed to be reminiscing about something, but with a hint of psychedelia.
"Let's go, you might know something when you go. ”
He took another step and said nothing.
Robert nodded imperceptibly, his body faithfully following his pace, and Gao Fodri looked at the two of them inexplicably, muttered twice and hurried to follow.
A few minutes later, Andu led the two to the area, which had been completely cordoned off by the police.
Not only the abandoned community, but the blockade area has spread to the surrounding kilometers for several kilometers, and a large number of police officers with stern expressions holding batons, guns, etc., completely blocked the area.
Although people's curiosity is heavy, they do not come forward to ask, and most of them watch from afar, pointing at something from time to time, and the discussion is noisy and chaotic.
"Let's go inside. ”
Looking at the crowd of onlookers around him, Andu walked out of the crowd with the two of them, which was particularly conspicuous and abrupt for a while.
"Stop!" a stern-looking, cold-looking police officer with a baton and a standard revolver at his waist in his right hand slowly approached the three Andu, stopping at a distance of about ten meters.
"This place has been cordoned off, please leave immediately!!" his tone was cold and emotionless, as if Andu would be killed on the spot if he took one step forward.
"Hello, officer. Andu smiled casually, and at the same time gently opened his right arm holding the cane, indicating that he had no malicious intent.
Seeing that the other party's expression softened slightly, Andu took off his top hat, performed a church ceremony, and introduced himself.
"I'm from the Episcopal Church, I'm a judge, and I've just heard about it. ”
Pointing to himself, he continued, "My name is Andu, you can confirm this later, I think, the purifiers inside should need help at this time, right?"
The officer's expression was no longer as cold as at the beginning, and he said in a questioning tone,
"Are you really from the Episcopal Church, the Judge?"
After speaking, he deliberately looked at Gao Foderi and Robert behind Andu, as if asking who they were.
"They're bodyguards that I hire, you know, the Inquisitor profession, which is a little bit unsafe. ”
The officer nodded suspiciously, and just then a young officer next to him approached him and muttered a few words.
The officer's expression was shocked and angry at first, then stunned and puzzled, and finally let down his guard and softened much.
"You can go in. The police officer looked at Andu deeply with a serious expression and reminded: "The things inside must not be passed on, and the same is true for your two bodyguards." ”
"Thank you. Andu nodded with a smile and quickly walked into the blockade area with the two of them.
It wasn't until Andu was completely away that the officer frowned at the young officer beside him and said,
"Are you really sure it's him?"
The young police officer nodded with a complicated expression and said, "It's him, when he broke into the police station and took away his sister, I was behind Melinda, and I saw it clearly." ”
"I remember that at the beginning, didn't they all say that he was a relation?" the police officer asked rhetorically, "but then I read what was written in the newspaper that this man's approach was very fair, and because the trial was too fair, he finally offended Darcy." ”
The young police officer said with a confused expression: "I don't know ...... either"
Andu followed the route given by Barney, and went all the way, and finally made a discovery.
This discovery comes from the left hand, from the Ring of Origin!
The feeling of warmth, though intermittent, was clear enough, indicating that there was indeed something evil nearby!
Feeling the warmth on the card ring, Andu quickly pursued his destination.
The previously orderly iron fence has collapsed and broken in a large area, and a team of purifiers is sitting or lying on the periphery, and several church pastors are treating and examining them.
"Chad. Andu recognized the Purifier squad at a glance, and finally looked at their captain.
Andu's appearance also immediately attracted Chade's attention, and several members of the purifier team immediately looked at him nervously.
With a heavy heart, Andu walked up, but in the eyes of Barry and York, it was full of different meanings.
Barry, whose chest had collapsed in large chunks, just tried to get up from the ground, but he fell to the ground again, and how could the thin priest who was in charge of taking care of him be able to hold his tonnage?
Seeing that Barry was about to hit his head to the ground, a broad arm was lying between his head and the ground, holding him up.
"What do you want to do!"
York, who has always been honest and honest, was on the verge of collapse under the battle and horror experience just now, and his eyes were blood-red and he roared at Andu!
Andu sighed in his heart when he saw the reaction of Chad's men, and the eyes full of gloom.
If there was anyone in Halmar who was most hostile to him, apart from Pollit and Ruskin, it would be the one in front of him.
At this time, language loses its original function and becomes extremely pale and weak.
Golf Dry gently put Barry down, looking at the other party's grinning angry expression, the barbarian was a little confused for a moment.
"Gao Fodri, you are in charge of guarding a few of them, and Robert and I will go in. ”
Andu looked at Chade helplessly, and walked into the fence with Robert.
There, a new team of purifiers had taken over Chad's job, a squad he wasn't very familiar with.
There were also five or six police officers who were guarding the perimeter, and it was evident from their nervous expressions that everyone was going through great torture in their hearts.
Because in the center of the field, the monster that could no longer see human nature was still twitching slightly until this time.
Andu's gaze gradually condensed, because next to the terrible mass of sarcoma, there was a man who seemed to have lost his soul, sitting there, looking at it with a dull expression.
"Justin. ”
