Chapter 880 862. Tongue Pulling (3000)
But in the silent atmosphere, Leonard slowly raised the crescent curved sword in his hand, and the outer blade of the arc crescent pointed at Lan Enhe Balls of flannel.
“Let’s forget about everything else.”
Under the silver mask, a calm and gentle voice came out.
"Can you explain where this talking cat and the horse outside came from? When you went to fetch a bucket of water, you not only found two traveling companions, but also attracted a wolf Possessed. Can you give me an explanation?"
"Otherwise, I can only think that you are a dirty bastard who has evil intentions towards the goddess and got in."
Flannel Ball had already polished his sword at this time. Seeing that the situation was not quite right, he looked up at Lan Lan. kindness.
The demon hunter lowered his blade, indicating that he had no ill intentions.
"You are a little too sensitive, Leonard. The flannel ball and the horse outside were originally with me. I am a traveler who got lost here, remember?"
"For Rosalia, I will always be so sensitive. Get rid of anything that might hurt her."
Leonard under the silver mask said unmoved.
At the same time, Lan En noticed a faint green light on the crescent-shaped blade.
“Stop.”
A gloomy and deep voice sounded from behind Leonard.
Archbishop Klimt is walking nearby, and is still followed by the two iron tower-like church knights.
Leonard's silver mask turned slightly, but he did not put down the knife in his hand obediently.
Judging from the tone of the Archbishop and Leonard, the two have different statuses. But judging from Leonard's actions, the binding force of this upper and lower status is not strong.
The Archbishop didn't say much, he just came over silently to observe the body of the man possessed by the wolf on the ground.
After taking a second look, he silently raised his head and asked the few people who had dealt with the monster a question.
"Are you sure? Its eyes just glowed with a frightening red light?"
Fluffy Ball, Lan En, and Leonard all nodded.
The witcher keenly noticed that after they gave a positive answer, the archbishop's face under the gray beard twitched slightly.
It was as if he was suppressing his emotions after hearing something that was definitely not good.
The red eyes represented certain problems, and Klimt didn't want others to know about them.
Lan En speculated silently in his heart.
The fact was exactly what he thought.
"It's just a fish that slipped through the cracks in the wall of the abandoned fortress. Don't worry about it."
Klimt's voice was unwavering and he said something that no one would believe.
"Put down your weapon, Leonard."
Now, many people in the camp are watching here.
After all, this is where the chaos breaks out, and it looks like the 'chaos' isn't over yet.
Klimt didn't mean to speak for Lan En, he just had to suppress the aftermath as soon as possible to prevent issues that could not be known to others from being noticed.
Lan En saw this, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and called Qilin over with a magic ring, and stood beside him.
Since the Archbishop wants to put the matter under control as soon as possible, he might as well take this opportunity to let Qilin and Velvet Ball join the team.
“This is my lost horse and friend.”
Klimt looked at it, and as expected he didn't say anything more, just nodded.
On the contrary, it was Leonard. He took a deep breath under the silver mask and then put down the blade in his hand that was already glowing with a faint green light.
"I will report to Rosalia what happened today."
He still sounded obsessed with anything that might harm the goddess.
“Yes, report it.”
After Klimt glanced at him, he asked the two church knights behind him to grab the body on the ground and walk towards the goddess's carriage.
"Even if you don't tell me, I will tell the goddess."
Later, Lan En took Flannel Ball and Qilin to sit down by the campfire.
Under the illumination of the flames, these two guys looked much calmer. Although I still occasionally look at the darkness in the distance with lingering fear, my mind is much clearer.
Lan En, on the other hand, was watching the movement in the center of the camp, near the goddess' carriage, in secret.
Klimt and Leonard knelt down in front of the goddess and stated their opinions.
When the church knight behind him picked up the body of the wolf-possessed person, Rosalia seemed to already know the cause and effect of this thing.
But she never said a word from beginning to end, she just lowered her head and shook her head sadly.
Finally, the body of the wolf-possessed man whose body was separated was taken and burned by the church knights.
But this method of handling is actually unreasonable. Even an outsider like Lan En, who has just learned about some undead situations, knows this.
The Frank Undead Team is an army of undead people, and these wolf-possessed people must be the undead people who came to accept the test and failed in the end.
But burning the undead with fire cannot completely kill them, nor can it even delay their resurrection.
Because only by bleeding but preserving the body can the resurrection process be delayed. Burning the undead entirely will only allow them to resurrect normally as usual.
The 'red eyes' of the corpse should be a unique feature. It is precisely because of this characteristic that Klimt must adopt this method of treatment.
Lan En once again confirmed his point of view in his heart.
Next to the camp, among the ruins where the magicians of the Behem Dragon Academy were entrenched, some sentries discovered what had happened here. But they seemed to not want to get involved no matter how things developed, so they just poked their heads at the wall and stopped paying attention to what was going on here.
"Relax, kid, relax."
While Lan En was thinking, the sound of flesh pupating on the ground came from beside him.
I turned around and saw that it was a maggot man clawing at the ground with his hands, crawling towards this side.
His facial features have been blurred like melted wax during the process of 'rebirth', but at least they still retain their original functionality.
It’s just that when he spoke, he was a bit slurred, as if he had a mouthful of phlegm stuck in his mouth.
The velvet ball jumped onto Lan En's back with a 'meow' sound, and Qilin also stood up from its comfortable prone position.
"Oh, it seems that my appearance scared you? I'm so sorry."
The maggot man unexpectedly made Lan En feel kind.
So the witcher struggled to overcome the visual discomfort.
Lan En does not want to be a guy who judges others by their appearance, but it is the nature of living things to satisfy their own vision, so he can only use his will to overcome his nature.
Fortunately, during the training of [Memory Diving], Lan En has been doing this for a long time. To combat the perfection-seeking nature of the Emperor's Children.
He soothed the flannel ball and Qilin, moved his buttocks, and sat closer to the maggot man.
"Do you know anything? About the man possessed by the wolf?"
"You know?" The maggot man supported his body with his hands, trying hard to hold up his body with only a ball of flesh left, and shook his head.
"How do I know those things? I just feel that you are uneasy."
"Yes." Lan En did not refute. "Darkness, and monsters in the dark, who can feel at ease when meeting these?"
"But don't worry, because we are with the goddess, young man."
The Maggot Man seems to be I felt tired from holding my body up, so I simply lay down with my face tilted and spoke.
"[The Mother of Rebirth] will protect us. She is compassionate and generous."
"What's the worst that can happen? It's just like me. It'll be fine after a while."
Maggot Man seems to be quite optimistic. This is the first optimistic guy that Lan En has met since he came to this world.
"Although I'm really scary when I look like this, haha."
As he said that, Maggot Man was even amused by himself, and he gasped and laughed.
"So, you are here to sell me faith? Preacher?"
Lan En then also said to the maggot man with a smile.
"Preacher? I don't have the tongue. Rosalia is there, and you will see what she does. You will know that she is compassionate and gentle enough to Loved by all things."
The maggot man lay on the ground and raised his hands. This action probably meant "spreading his hands".
“If you see it with your own eyes but still don’t believe it, then what’s the use of my words? If it’s really useful, then I’m not better than the goddess, haha!”
Maggot Man's optimistic attitude made Lan En feel very comfortable, so he simply came closer and asked in a low voice.
"Then I'm a little curious. What will your body become in the end?"
"What will we become? Haha, it's an angel!"
The maggot man didn't seem to mind at all when Lan En pointed at his tail, then hesitated to speak, and opened his hands generously to show himself.
“Angel?”
"After we metamorphose, we will become human again, taller and stronger, and we will also grow wings with white feathers and have the ability to fly. That kind of appearance is called [angel] by us."
"Actually, my transformation is almost over, so I am in the mood to come and comfort you."
As he said that, a different sound appeared on the palm of the maggot man that was different from the one issued by the priests just now. Golden light, it was a pure white light.
Along with the white light, white falling feathers appeared, and then disappeared simultaneously with the white light.
“What is this?”
Lan En looked at this scene curiously, and the flannel ball showed half of his face from behind, looking at it with the same curiosity.
"This is a [miracle] that belongs to angels, but I didn't hold the amulet or the holy bell just now. There is no catalyst, so the spell can't be activated."
The maggot said indifferently. .
“This [Miracle] is a story told by an angel to Saint Gerard, and the Saint compiled and spread the story.”
[Miracle], this kind of magic is a kind of story '? It is a magical system that relies on telling stories, understanding stories, and believing in stories to cast spells.
While marveling at the new knowledge, Lan En concluded based on what the maggot man said.
"In other words, the goddess Rosalia can make people reborn as angels, and the angels tell the story to the saint Gerard?"
"That should be it." Maggot Man said. He started, "The more specific thing is the story between gods. Who can say clearly?"
"It's a pity that the goddess suffered at the beginning."
"The goddess suffered The pain?”
Lan En asked unclearly.
Maggot Man did not avoid anything. He just folded his hands and lowered his head in the direction of the goddess's car frame while whispering.
“The believers who initially sought ‘rebirth’ were irritable and eager. After they turned into maggots, they became angry and pulled out the tongue of the goddess together with the scared believers who had not yet been ‘reborn’. . The goddess is speechless now.”
