Chapter 109 Sheriff Anthony
This is also a luxury train. Strong soundproof materials separate independent compartments. The crime scene is in an independent compartment.
At this time, the police officers of the train sealed off the entire carriage, and other passengers were comforted. The flight attendants sent hot drinks and mood-stabilizing medicines.
Helot controlled the spirit body to float into the deceased's compartment.
A fat man fell to the ground. His skin was as white as paper, his expression was extremely ferocious, and black blood flowed from his facial features. If you look closely, you can see that his pupils are gray-white, and a layer of magic energy testing agent was applied to his forehead by the autopsy staff, causing a layer of tiny black bubbles to appear.
A very typical soul extraction and crushing technique in necromancy.
“Is there nothing unusual about Herot Claurund?”
When Herot heard someone say his name, he changed his perspective and looked over.
It was a police officer, tall, about 1.9 meters tall, with a sword hanging on his waist instead of a gun. A Sheriff who does not carry a gun must have the ability to do so without a gun.
Looking at his epaulettes and armbands, he should be the chief of security of this train.
Next to him was a female Sheriff, a little short in stature, which formed a sharp contrast with the tall Sheriff.
She should be the Chief of Security.
"Chief of Security, according to your instructions, I have sent people to monitor Mr. Claude, but no one has come out yet. And I asked the flight attendant, Mr. Claude and his two female dependents He never came out after entering the compartment and had no contact with the deceased."
The Sheriff said: "Undead magic is very strange, and it does not necessarily require close range to kill someone. Not long after he got in the car, he died. Someone was killed near the carriage he was in. My experience tells me that even if he didn't do it, it should be related to him.
Check all the people who were in the car in Hog Town to see who was close. Crime scene.”
"It's the chief of security." The sergeant asked again: "Should we send someone to call Mr. Claude? If this case is really related to him, maybe he knows something?"
The chief of security considered it. After a while: "I'll go there. The last time I passed through Hogg Town, I heard that the residents of the town had a conflict with the undead from Claulund Manor, and many people died.
The other party belonged to the Duke of the Undead. Descendants, we must deal with it carefully. I may be able to observe some details related to the case in person."
"Please be careful, Sheriff"
"Assign people to watch the scene. No one is allowed in!”
"It's the Sheriff!"
After the two went out, the Sheriff guarding outside closed the door tightly.
Helot did not rush to remove the soul fragments, but inspected the crime scene.
Obviously, the chief of security could only judge that the deceased died of undead magic, and did not see that it was a soul extraction and crushing technique.
The soul extraction and crushing technique generally requires face-to-face casting, and then the death energy generated by the soul crushing is reinjected into the body of the deceased to transform the corpse into a zombie.
The Soul Extraction and Shattering Technique is recorded in the library of Claulund Manor, and it is also a common spell used by the corpse stitchers. The complete soul extraction and crushing technique often takes a long time, allowing the subject's soul to accumulate negative energy while being tortured. When the soul is shattered, stronger death energy can burst out.
Although the deceased also suffered pain before death, it was short-lived and the corpse was not fully transformed into a zombie. This shows that the people who kill people do not sew corpses to make corpse puppets, but as a demonstration and a means of creating chaos.
Panic arose in the train, which in turn caused the people on the train to target... me! Force me to get out of the car!
Helot withdrew his soul fragments, and his spirit body disappeared in pieces.
"Breshini, open the door, we have guests coming." Herot woke up and sat up.
“Yes, Master!”
Brotherly opened the door. The Sheriff had just walked to the door and was about to knock on the door.
"It seems that the sound insulation effect of the train compartment is very poor." The chief of security walked in. He first looked at the environment here, and then saluted Helot: "Hello, Mr. Claude. I am the chief of security of this train, Jamal Anthony. I have a few questions to ask you about the murder that just happened."
"Please take a seat." Hailot is in Anthony. A bone chair was created behind the Sheriff's body.
Anthony looked at the bone chair and hesitated for a moment, but still sat on it: "Undead magic really makes people feel fear."
"When I first came into contact with the undead, I was the same as you. mentality. But after I got used to it, I found that the undead were far more reliable than humans."
"But there was a necromancer who killed someone on the train, and the target of the demonstration was you. . If he continues to kill people, we may be forced to ask you to get off the train for the sake of passenger safety. This is probably what the other party wants."
Helot said with a smile: "It seems you don't think so. Am I the murderer? "
"Until the murderer is found, anyone could be the murderer. I am just telling a guess that I think is close to the truth. Mr. Claude, if my guess is. Really, the murderer’s intention is to stop your journey. He is not sure of killing you, so he can only let you stop and wait for the person who is capable of killing you to arrive.”
Helot was a little surprised and said: "You are able to see through the truth of this case in such a short period of time. You are really a sheriff with excellent professional skills."
"Thank you for the compliment. Now you are willing to assist us in the search The murderer? If a second deceased person appears, I will have to let you get off at the next station."
"Of course, since the other person is coming for me, of course I will find him. Come out."
Anthony asked: "Can you provide us with some clues?"
"The other party is a corpse stitcher among the necromancers, and he uses the soul extraction and crushing technique to kill people. This spell usually needs to be performed face to face, but the murderer only wants to kill for demonstration, so the method of performing the spell can be simplified
I guess..."
"Please wait a moment! "Anthony took out a notebook and pen from his pocket to take notes, and then said: "Please continue. "
"I estimate that the murderer put poison in the deceased's food first, and then he could use the soul extraction and crushing technique to kill people from a certain distance. You can send someone to check the half cup of tea left by the deceased. There should be ingredients for the potion in it. "
Anthony suddenly asked: "How do you know so clearly about the situation at the scene. "
"I am a necromancer. "Helot said mysteriously: "If the soul of the deceased had not been crushed, I could have gathered his soul and asked him to tell you more clues. ”
Anthony couldn't help but tremble in his heart. The necromancer who played with souls and manipulated death was really scary.
