Chapter 241 The Lost Familia
After leaving the Church Bridge, Milo directly sent away the clingy Investigator C.
The way to send him away is simple - "Heavy rain will make the water flow in the canal much faster than usual, and your old seals may be washed away by the river water."
Listen After saying these words, Investigator C rushed to the confession dock in a hurry.
……
When Investigator C was far away and no one was around, the Shadow of Exile 7-man team revealed three tiles.
Earlier, they had fished out these three pieces of poop from the bottom of the river.
Milo's current means of dealing with the Old Ones are very limited.
No matter how strong his body is, no matter how accurate his marksmanship is, when he stands in front of a ruler, all his methods become extremely mediocre.
I feel a sense of powerlessness, as if the beauty on the bed has finished washing and has an alluring fragrance, and is using all her sultry words to seduce people's hearts, but a certain part of my body that should be positive is still not there. Moved, that's pretty much what it means.
This time, it was because Glachi underestimated him too much that he lowered his status and entered Milo's world. In a fantasy world where both sides had equal status, Milo had the power to counterattack.
But, just like in bed, you can’t expect the other person to go out of their way to cater to you every time, right? Pillow boys are not welcome.
......
So Milo is going to take these three old poop seals as his own.
Although Investigator C has already said that the effect of the old seal on the old rulers is very limited, and essentially can only play a role in disgusting the opponent.
But precisely because of the existence of this setting, Milo's desire to take this thing away was strengthened.
Here in Milo, throwing poop on others is, like fear, one of the oldest human emotions, and is simply called bad taste.
It's like throwing a water balloon from the teaching building to the principal's car at the end of the college entrance examination. It's an inexplicable pleasure.
Of course, the matter of carrying poop with you must be kept secret.
……
"C said these things were found from some ancient ruins. It seems that I need to learn some archaeological knowledge."
Milo looked at the three tiles suspended in front of him.
"It seems that Miskatonic University still has something."
He put away the three old seals.
Eric gestured to Milo - "What's next? Shall we go and find that family member?"
"Let's wait for my teammates to arrive first."
Milo put his hands in his pockets and looked back towards the outskirts of the city.
At this time, the figure of a man on horseback in the distance is approaching.
It's old Theon.
……
"Long time no see, you look very busy."
Milo waved towards old Xion.
Old Xion came to Milo, looked up and down at Milo, who was all wet, and sneered:
"I heard that you were beaten so hard that you lost your armor and all your weapons. Lost it.”
Milo opened his windbreaker and revealed the revolver gun and game knife at his waist:
"Which bastard said that? Not only is my friend fully equipped, he also got a good thing."
As he spoke, he pulled out a crowbar hanging from his waist.
When we were at the confession dock, we relied on this thing to pry open the cabin of the cargo ship at the last moment, so there was a scene where fuel was all over the place. Milo himself couldn't explain the reason. Anyway, he just felt that this thing seemed to be quite useful.
After all, the weapon he meditated in the fantasy world was also a crowbar. He used this physical sword to do many indescribable things to Glaki.
Now Milo feels more secure holding the crowbar than holding the revolver.
Old Theon looked at Milo wielding the crowbar and was speechless:
"I have always thought that those who worship classical weapons have a brain problem, but now I think they have feelings. "That's fine."
"If you knew what I did with the crowbar, you wouldn't say such things." Milo hung the crowbar on his waist mysteriously and covered himself with his windbreaker. .
“I don’t want to know what you did with the crowbar, it just sounds unhealthy.”
Old Xion lit up his cigarette habitually and asked Milo:
"What do the church people want from you?"
"They helped me find the murderer in the case, let's go. Go and catch that crazy woman.”
Milo shook his wet sleeves.
……
…
The two returned to Nanwei City.
In an old, dark abandoned monastery on the northernmost side of the city, I found the only remaining member of Glaki's family in the world - Sansa.
This monastery is located on the edge of the canal upstream into Nanwei City, almost next to the canal.
In the last era, there were many sects with different ideas in Nanwei City. Each of these sects had their own parishes and monastery places. After the Golden Rule Church became the state religion, all the sects of the three religions and nine streams were eliminated. Of course, this did not require any extreme measures to be taken by any force, because after the great plague, almost all the people in the country became believers in the Golden Rule, and those ordinary sects naturally disappeared after they lost their followers.
All they left in Nanwei City were these dilapidated monasteries waiting to be demolished.
......
In the monastery that was filled with the smell of decay, there were also countless small altars woven from plants.
At first, Milo didn't understand the purpose of these gadgets made of tree branches and leaves, but after a battle with Glaaki in the fantasy world, he learned some knowledge from Glaaki. Fragments of memory.
During the period ten years ago, by the lake in the Severn Valley, the clansmen knew that after becoming servants, they would be extremely afraid of the sun. If Glaaki's servants were exposed to the sun, they would directly turn into rotten corpses. Thick green slurry, so they would build some tower-like shelters in the darkest places in the mountains. Over time, these things became some kind of symbol in the belief system.
The smaller version of these altar-like things is the small altar that Milo sees in the monastery now.
So the thing itself has no special function.
It is just an object for the family members to place their thoughts and prayers on.
Just like Sansa used dead people for sacrifice, she chiseled antlers from Arya Ferguson's skull simply because in her childhood memories, the elders of the tribe would The reindeer they hunted from the valley were used in sacrifices.
The inheritance of teachings will always mutate with the memory of the inheritor.
If Sansa could successfully escape and become a missionary to the next group of Glaaki's Familia, perhaps all future human sacrifices would require antlers on the sacrifices.
Of course, she doesn't have that chance.
......
On the edge of the city, it was muddy. In the surrounding air, you could only hear the sound of the canal water and the sobs of the lonely family member.
In the corner of the monastery, a lonely figure was kneeling.
She did not welcome her god.
