Looking at Buzhen, who was full of sores in front of her, the female priest whispered with a trembling trembling face. Although the bodies had been dragged away and buried, the scene of blood and black land blending is still disgusting. After receiving the report, Catherine ordered everyone in the town to evacuate and sent many soldiers to defend the town on the periphery to prevent anyone from entering at will.
Until Gregory, Li Lin and others came. Because of this, most of the town is still in the chaos of the attack.
Gregory also frowned. But he was not as sentimental as a female priest. He slowly walked into the ruins and looked at it, then came to the wall, looked at the dim blood on it, and then shook his head.
"This is not the time to be sad. We should find out the problems as soon as possible and draw conclusions."
As he said that, he turned his eyes to the female priest.
"How is it, was it done by the undead?"
"It's very similar, but I can't confirm before seeing the body."
The female priest was very cautious. She had already felt the residual devil aura here. However, she was still unable to confirm. After all, although they had tried their best to speed up the speed from their departure to the town, five or six days had passed. The devil aura itself was already very faint. It also felt like the resentment left by the dead souls, which would confuse the judgment. What's more, the corpses of the killed wolves also disappeared after sunrise. At present, it can be said that there is no evidence of death.
As for the testimony of those witnesses, they were in chaos. Almost all survivors were chaotic because of excessive stimulation. Only those soldiers could barely say that the other party was driving the wolf pack and also guaranteed that the wild beast would be difficult to kill. But as for whether it was an undead creature, they could not be sure. After all, the general understanding of undead creatures is only at the level of zombies and ghosts, and they would not have thought that anyone would drive the corpses of animals.
"We can get very little of the Zijing at present."
Gregory carefully searched the ruins, but found nothing except a broken hand. But even so, he learned a lot of things.
"The opponent seems to have appeared from the mountains in the north, and the attack and evacuation are quite rapid, making it a difficult opponent to deal with."
Gregory said while pointing at the broken wall in front of the boat.
"It's obvious that something must have happened before that, otherwise it would be impossible for so many people to die on the streets. After all, the attack was late at night. If that were the case, most people should be sleeping. Unless the other party used fire attack to force these people out of the room, it was obvious that there was no trace of fire attack here at all."
"Undead creatures are afraid of fire."
The female priest clearly understood the meaning of Gregory's words.
"But I still don't understand why these people don't hide in the room? Generally speaking, after discovering the danger, people's first reaction should be to stay in the door, right?"
"It's very likely that what they found was not dangerous at the beginning." Perhaps people were curious, so they walked out of the house to watch.^^Baidu search and read the latest chapters of the book** But when they found that it was dangerous, they were too late to escape." Of course, these were just speculations."
Even so, it is not far from the truth.
Li Lin, who was standing leisurely by the side, obviously knew the situation at that time. He learned the details of the attack from Angela, so he knew better than these people about the process of the incident. However, Gregory was able to make such a reason. For Li Lin, he was a little surprised. It seemed that this man was not simple, and it was not easy to deal with him smoothly. However, on the other hand, Li Lin was quite satisfied. After all, if this was an incompetent man, then his plan would be an obstacle.
"Mr. Li Lin, what do you think?"
After exchanging his opinions with the female priest, Gregory raised his head and asked Li Lin. Li Lin shrugged.
"I want to see the corpse more than these boring ruins. It is better to see it at first sight than to hear it. No matter how close my inference is to reality, but without evidence, it is not reality after all."
"But those remains have been buried."
The female pastor obviously disgusted with Li Lin's opinion.
"It is not a good thing to be slandered, we are looking for another way"
"The rules also need to be divided into occasions and locations. If the saint's highness is right, there will be more corpses that do not need to be buried in the future. "If we can prevent this scene from happening, then what does it mean to check one or two corpses?"
"But the female priest was going to say something else, but Gregory pressed her shoulder and interrupted her.
"I agree with Mr. Li Lin's opinion. Miss Pastor, it is not a time to stick to the minor details. If we can thoroughly understand the strength and characteristics of the enemy through these measures, it will be more conducive to our dealings with these enemies whose true identity is not clear. And I think the dead have gone. Only better protection of the living is the best way to mourn them."
I have to do it."
Although the female pastor didn't like this decision, she was also a person who understood the truth, so she hesitated about the film. Fourth, the female pastor finally nodded and agreed to their wish.
The remains of the victims had been buried in the nearest cemetery three days ago. The three found the soldiers who were in charge of guarding the cemetery, and after spending some effort, they finally agreed to dig out several of them for inspection. What puzzled everyone was that the soldiers who were in charge of guarding the cemetery were a little panicked about this request. However, after digging the tomb, they understood the reason for the soldiers' panic. The corpses were not placed in the coffin at all, but were thrown into the soil and buried directly. As for the money allocated above to buy the coffin, it was obviously embezzled by these guys.
"It looks like a trace of a large beast biting, but at the moment, everyone is not in the mood to pursue the corruption of these low-level soldiers. For them, the wounds on the corpse are the most important.
“Look here
As he said that, Gregory pointed at a wound that cut from his chest to his abdomen.
"The wound is too rough. It is not so much cut, but rather torn apart. It is obvious that he was attacked by a wild beast.
"Can it be an elf?"
Li Lin frowned.
"They live in the mountains and forests and know how to drive wild animals. What's more, the relationship between elves and humans has never been very good."
“There are no reports of elves here.”
The female priest shook her head and denied this.
"Also, the signs of blackening on the wound do not look like natural decay. I can feel the dark power above it." It is obvious that this should be done by the undead."
After seeing the real thing with his own eyes, the three of them finally determined their goals. For Li Lin, this was a natural result. He did not want to waste time running around and search for clues, and then spend a lot of time to infer. What's more, their current affairs have not been completed. If they were just confirmed that it was done by the undead creatures, there was no need for Catherine to send the three of them to the remote town here. Their tasks were much more important than ordinary inspections.
After talking to the soldiers nearby, everyone received no useful information. According to them, no one came to attack the camp again during these days. The previous sneak attack seemed to be just a flower, and there was no more valuable clue. Then, it was only possible to search for traces and search for the whereabouts of the undead creatures. Whether they came alone or as Catherine expected, they were doing it by neighboring countries, they had to find clues and evidence to determine what to do next.
Although it is already cold winter, for everyone, the cold wind in winter is not their enemy. Li Lin's magical body is almost immune to some elemental damage, so he will naturally not react to the mere cold wind. What's more, the female priest also specially released a magical technique to prevent cold for them to ensure that their bodies can move flexibly and freely at any time instead of being frozen.
The mountains and forests in deep winter are not easy to walk on. Although footprints are clearly left on the snow, it is still quite difficult for everyone to walk in the snow with one foot deep and one foot deep.
"Mr. Li Lin, what do you think about this matter?
Even so, Gregory did not seem to remain silent. Instead, he seemed to care more about other things.
"You mean these undead creatures?"
Li Lin, who was walking in the front, answered without looking back, and gently shook the branches beside him.
"I don't think I have anything to say, so hurry up and find these guys, then solve them, complete the task, and I can also get on the road as early as possible and continue my journey.
"Your relationship with His Highness seems to be quite good."
Gregory asked, his eyes staring at Li Lin's back with fear, and a trace of cunning glow reflected inside.
"It is a very honorable thing to be able to get the personal name of His Highness the Saint to be named by him.
"Don't joke with me. Mr. Gregory."
Li Lin pretended to be helpless and sighed.
"I don't like to deal with these royal families. As a wandering swordsman, I prefer unrestrained travel, rather than having a noble lady drink tea in an artificial garden, and then talking about today's weather in civilized and polite language. I really don't understand what the difference is between "the weather is good today and "the weather is really good today.
“I feel deeply about this.”
Hearing this, Gregorian smiled slightly. The suspicion in his eyes disappeared a little, but it did not disappear completely.
"However, our mission this time is not simple, and undead creatures are not easy to deal with."
"I'm not confident enough about my skills, Mr. Gregory."
Li Lin's fingers fell on the hilt of the sword around his waist intentionally or unintentionally, and gently knocked on it.
"But I am a wandering swordsman. Maybe one day I will be pushed over by a group of goblins and then dragged into the hole by those annoying guys to grill. Compared to the unknown way of death, dying in the mission of His Highness of the Saint can at least be remembered. At least my name may appear on the tombstone, rather than the adventurer who discovered my wreckage from the stinking bones of the goblin cave after a hundred and eighty years."
“That’s right.”
Hearing Li Lin's words, Gregory showed a slightly thoughtful expression
The female priest felt a little at a loss about the conversation between the two. As Gregory's companion, she could feel that Gregory was very wary of Li Lin, but on the other hand, the swordsman recommended by the Saint Maiden was not so thorough. He looked like a powerful swordsman. But that was all. The female priest did not think Li Lin was very suspicious, but she did not think that her companion was guessing out of thin air. However, in front of her, the female priest could only barely swallow her questions back to her stomach and wait for the right time to ask.
After walking in the mountains and forests for a whole day, everyone encountered no danger. When the day was getting late, they finally stopped. Li Lin looked for firewood nearby for fire, while the other two set up tents and camps nearby. Until then, the female priest asked hesitantly.
"Gregory, you seem to be very alert to that Mr. Li Lin? Why?"
"Always be careful about everything
Looking at the woods where Li Lin left, Gregory did not stop his movements.
"We don't know the origin of Mr. Li Lin. He has such a good skill, but he doesn't look famous. This is strange. How could I never hear of a swordsman who wanders around like him without deliberately hiding himself? At his age, having such skills but being unknown is a very strange thing in itself.
"But Mr. Li Lin was recommended by Saint Catherine."
The female priest frowned.
"The Saint should know his situation very well, otherwise she would not recommend this man to act with us."
"Although it's rude to say this, I always feel that something is wrong."
Gregory frowned.
"And, before His Highness Catherine became an angel, this man suddenly appeared.
"Gregory, you are blaspheming!"
The female priest's expression changed and immediately interrupted Gregory's speech.
"Are you trying to say that it was this man who transformed Lord Catherine into a saint? This idea itself is a blasphemy! Who else has such power besides the great God of Justice! I can pretend that you have not heard these words. But you are not allowed to mention them again. After all, Lord Catherine is a real angel, and I have already felt the holy and sacred power in her body. That cannot be faked!"
"Okay, okay," I got it. I'm just talking."
Seeing that the female priest was really angry, Gregory hurriedly raised his hands to express his surrender. I don’t know why I can’t trust him.”
Then, we can watch him until the mission is over."
The female pastor thought for a moment and then answered.
"But, I don't want any accidents."
"I'm the same." After a brief conversation, the two started their respective work again. Unexpectedly, their conversation had already been heard by Anjiela and Li Lin in the depths of the forest.
"It doesn't seem very stupid."
