Chapter 380 Walking the Cat

“Huh?”

On the stone platform, Daisy’s lips did not actually move. She transmitted her voice to Milo in another way, but The voice was so weak that Milo didn't hear it clearly at first.

He held Daisy's hand and moved closer, asking:

"What Eminem?"

"Imnar..."

Milo could feel the helplessness in Daisy's extremely weak tone.

But this cannot be blamed on him. Milo really has no memory of the name Imnar. In the many classics he has read, there has never been a text that mentioned this awkward name.

But now that we know the correct pronunciation of its name, everything is easy to handle.

Milo held Daisy’s little hand and whispered in her ear:

"It's the curse it placed on you, right?"

"Well..."

This time, Daisy responded with difficulty with a painful look on her face.

......

In short, no one present except Milo could hear Daisy's voice. During the whole process, they could only hear Milo's voice——

"Yeah."

"Where?"

"Okay, don't worry, you're fine."

"Don't be afraid."

"What else?"

"Yeah, I understand."

"Want to see Rebecca?"

"Then I'll call her over when you get better."

"About that "Things, do you see it clearly?"

"It doesn't matter, I'll take care of it."

"Have a good rest."

......

The Reverend Defoe and the other scholars of the Covenant were dying of anxiety.

They were more eager to know the source of the curse than Milo, but it was obvious that Daisy only informed Milo of this information and had no intention of informing others.

It is quite sad to say that the clergy on the Star Clock Tower are bound to Daisy with their lives and bear the curse with her, but they have no right to know the truth behind it.

Of course, what the Servant of God is best at doing is to excuse the superiors. In short - Thinking Eye believes that this matter should not be known to too many people. She must have her concerns and she must be doing it for our own good.

etc.

Over the long years, religions recognized and utilized by the ruling class of mankind have always had a common characteristic, which is to teach people to accept the changing circumstances.

The Golden Rule is no exception.

Otherwise it would not be the so-called state religion.

Otherwise, the group of lunatics from the Monsis School who tried to recreate the divine body would not have been expelled.

......

Above the Star Clock Tower, Daisy fell into a deep sleep after explaining all the clues.

Although she has been freed from the curse of the shadow, her body is on the verge of shock and she needs to rest quietly for a period of time before she can recover.

Milo did not stay too long in the church.

He relatively politely asked Reverend Defoe to take care of Daisy, and then left the Star Clock Tower.

Before leaving, Defoe hesitated for a long time and said to Milo:

“The traces on the prayer square have been washed away by the rain, but the guilt of killing gods will always be imprinted deep in the soul. "

The kind words of admonition revealed in the words are already very obvious, but it is a pity that Milo has never liked such ambiguous words and is too lazy to waste too much energy on analysis.

He knows what the church and contract organizations have always done, which can be summed up as "shrinking".

The general meaning is that as long as you do nothing, you will definitely not do anything wrong.

Since its establishment, whether in the academic field or in other fields, the most "crazy" thing the church has done is blood therapy, and to this day, they are still struggling with that incident. Pay for the act of saving the world.

In fact, the Contract Organization is far superior to Miskatonic University in terms of academic foundation and historical background in this field, which Milo cannot deny.

But once academic things are related to theology and faith, they will be timid and stop moving forward.

Milo just didn't like it, but he didn't judge whether it was correct or not.

Because from another perspective, although the church is not as "rational" and "realistic" as the University of Michigan, at the same time, the church is not like the University of Michigan where many investigators die every year, whether they are contract scholars or conference scholars like Dillashaw. Officer, their risk of death in the line of duty is much lower than that of investigators from the University of Michigan.

To some extent, this can be regarded as one of the benefits of being cautious.

......

But the problem is that no matter how cautious they are, disaster will come sooner or later. This is Nanwei City, which has been targeted by countless malicious eyes in the prophecy. , the church headquarters adjacent to it will sooner or later fall into the same situation.

It’s just that for various reasons, the shadows of the past never extended their fangs and claws into the church’s territory.

Like today, it was the first time that Shadow broke into the Holy Land of the Church without restraint. This is the first time, and it's just the beginning.

The Star Clock Tower and the church people above it should be able to feel this invisible pressure - some uncontrollable chaotic factors are already ready to move in this city .

When Milo left, the rain outside had not weakened at all.

But since he was already soaked, there was no need to worry so much.

When he crossed the Prayer Square and returned to the Church Bridge, the battlefield here had already been "cleaned".

All the broken limbs on the bridge platform have disappeared, and the remaining pieces of corpses are being washed into the canal below by the rain, and will eventually be taken into the boundless sea water.

On the side of the bridge close to the church, the little black cat Marshall is sitting on the railing.

Its hair was black and shiny, and it did not get wet at all even in the heavy rain. The rainwater slid away along the outer layer of the hair.

The cat just sat there quietly, licking its paws, waiting for Milo's arrival.

After seeing Milo's figure appear, it jumped down from the railing, walked lightly to Milo's feet and followed his pace.

At the same time, he asked:

"Why didn't you kill it? Or was it killed by it."

"It?" Milo shook his head: "Let it go. After a bunch of harsh words, he disappeared.”

To be honest, Milo still can't accept Marshall's middle-aged smokey voice, which really doesn't match his kitten shape. You should know that he still has Rebecca's cute little bell tied around his neck.

The overall temperament cannot be simply described by the word "contrast", it should be contrary to harmony.

"I saw it leave, it's a pity."

Marshall swung his tail from side to side, tapping his little paws over the standing water on the bridge abutment.

“You saw it and you didn’t stop it?” Milo narrowed his eyes and glanced at the little black ball.

The latter raised his head and retorted:

"It comes from another world, the world where my tribe is. I can't let my tribe pay for my actions. They don't know anything."

“This is the first time I heard a cat talk about being timid in such a righteous way.”

Milo insulted Marshall.

However, Marshall's temper was much better than Milo imagined. Even after being teased like this, he did not get angry. Of course, it does not rule out that he did not understand what Milo meant.

It just stepped on the cat steps seriously and muttered: "Are you sure this isn't the first time you hear a cat talking?"

"I know your cats in Dreamland are very powerful, just talk and don't scare others. ." Milo waved his hand:

"If you lie on Rebecca's chest and suddenly sing, I guess I will be promoted to law enforcement officer."

"No, she is not as fragile as you think." Marshall shook his head, and then suddenly raised his head and looked at Milo in surprise: "So you know about Dreamland."

"I also know this series You are the cause of all the troubles. If you hadn’t opened the gaps between the two worlds, there wouldn’t be so many troubles in Nanwei City.”

Milo squinted his eyes and stared at the little black cat on the ground with a smile.

The latter bared his teeth and said: "Accident, it was purely an accident. How could anyone put all the blame on a kitten, a despicable human being."

Marshall has always been The impression she has always given people is that of a arrogant cat that doesn’t allow strangers to approach her.

But obviously, Milo's words hit the point where it was most unjust. The cat hesitated for a long time, and its defense was very weak. In the end, it could only point its paw at the bridge platform. He said with a faint trace of blood:

"I'm already helping..."

Fortunately, it didn't point. When he pointed, Milo found that the horse he had tied at the entrance to the upper bridge had disappeared, and there was only a broken rein with blood on the ground.

Milo picked up the reins and lay down and breathed:

"Hey... there is no transportation on this rainy day."

Whether the horse was crushed by Marshall's strong wind It is no longer important whether the person died or was torn to pieces by the beast-turned-monsters. What is important is that if there is no corpse to hand over, the loss will be calculated on Milo's salary.

However, Marshall’s next addition seems a bit unnecessary:

"It's that guy, it must be him. He got so angry after being injured by you that he killed your horse on the way out. This must be the case."

This is basically equivalent to admitting that the horse was hurt by him. Manslaughter.

But Milo was too lazy to care.

He muttered:

"Okay, let's go back and settle this account together with it, Imnar, right Eminem, wait..."< br>


"Imnar?"

Marshall suddenly raised his head and looked at Milo. His sapphire-like eyes were huge, and his pupils shrank into a vertical line, and even the hair on his back stood on end. got up.

It asked in a horrifying tone:

"You said, the one who appeared in the square just now was Imnar? Imnar from the Abyss of the Void?"

"Well-" Milo muttered and shrugged calmly: "I didn't ask where he came from, but there is a high probability that it is the Imnar you mentioned."

He shook his wet hair and said: "I think I have to go back and check the relevant information."

"You can't find any records related to it."

Marshall Shake his head.

“It has never appeared in history as a real entity, so there can be no records related to it.”
