Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 1491

Alex understood that Anthony's death was a landmark case.

It means that the previously established events have begun to change, and the situation is gradually heating up. No one knows what terrible things will happen next.

And this terrifying unknown, like a cloud that cannot be dissolved, floated over Gust Town, and the gloomy and oppressive atmosphere even made Alex feel suffocated for a moment.

"Will this be a single incident?" Alex asked Angel, who was hiding aside, in a low voice after returning to the Keruja Church.

"Don't you already have the answer in your heart?" Angel said.

The day after Anthony's death, gloom still hung over the town of Gust.

After Alex woke up, he found that Father Branlang had stayed in the church all night, with a pale and sad face, kneeling in front of the statue of God the Father, praying silently.

Seeing Alex coming, Father Branlang slowly turned his head: "Where are you going?"

"I went to the river to recite the scriptures."

Father Brenlang was silent for a moment, then nodded: "Go, but Gust Town is not safe now, don't go to too remote places, be careful."

Alex nodded in agreement, and then left the church under the watchful eyes of Father Branlang.

But Alex didn't see it. Father Branlang's eyes became dark and deep after he left, and finally he sighed deeply with helplessness.

"You hinted before that Father Branlang's heart is not on the right track. However, I just saw his pious prayer for Anthony, and it doesn't seem false." Angel asked curiously, last night Alex While Kex was sleeping, he went around the town for a while. When he left, Branlang prayed devoutly in the church. When he came back in the morning, he was still praying silently.That sense of piety, in Angel's view, is very real.

Alex: "Father Branlang is qualified as a clergyman. Moreover, he is very awed by death."

As for other aspects, Alex is unwilling to say more, after all, Father Branlang saved him and adopted him.

Angor didn't continue talking about Father Branlang either.

Two hours later, Alex came to the forester's cabin where Mrs. Connie was staying.

Mrs. Connie did not leave, she was still resting on the bed, but her face was pale, her eyes were in a trance, and there were obvious tear stains on her cheeks, as if she had been crying all night.

Alex brought food and medicine, and recited a scripture with Mrs. Connie.

Although Alex himself didn't believe in the content of the tome, it was very suitable for brainwashing, or in other words, for giving hope to people in a desperate situation.

After Madam Connie recited the scriptures, her expression finally eased.

"Alex, when can I go back to town?" Mrs. Connie still couldn't help asking.

With hesitation on Alex's face, Mrs. Connie's curiosity was aroused enough, and he said slowly: "I was a little skeptical when I heard what Madam said yesterday. However, when I went back last night, I just I know something big has happened."

Alex told Mrs. Connie about Anthony's death and Martin's disappearance.

Although Alex didn't say who was responsible for the case, he kept leading Mrs. Connie to her experience in his speech.

After Mrs. Connie heard it, she trembled with fear, even though Alex did not give a complete chain of evidence that Anthony's death was related to the two undead who hunted down Mrs. Connie.But Mrs. Connie made up her mind, but the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became.

"Gust Town is currently in a dark tide, Mrs. Connie had better not go back, don't worry, I promise you in the name of God, once the dark tide subsides, I will immediately take Mrs. Connie back town."

A clergyman used the name of God the Father, and Mrs. Connie naturally believed it.

But Mrs. Connie didn't know that although Alex was a priest, it was just a glamorous shell, and he was definitely an unbelievers in his heart.He said things in the name of God the Father, but in fact it was no different from farting.

At noon, Alex returned to Gust Town with a serious expression on his face.

When he stepped into the Kruya Church, he was surprised to find that the church, which used to be full of people, was already full at this time, and everyone silently prayed to the statue of God the Father.

Obviously, the events that happened one after another, including Knight Raven, affected the people in the town.

Before the murderer can't be caught, everyone can only hope in the gods, even if the gods have never shown his miracles.

Alex blended into the praying crowd without hindrance. He stood in front of the window, reciting the teachings of the divine scriptures with his eyes closed.The sunlight coming in through the window, amidst the mottled light and shadow, is as holy as the Son of God.

This week, all the participants felt as if they had been redeemed in their hearts.

But this kind of redemption only lasted for less than half an hour before it failed again.

The door of the church was pushed open suddenly, and the dim church was instantly covered by strong light. Everyone rubbed their eyes that were stung by the sun and looked back, a small black shadow jumped into their eyes.

When their eyes gradually adapted to the light, they noticed that it was a little boy wearing an ocher-colored newsboy cap. His face was pale and panicked, and he rushed towards a fat middle-aged man in the church.

The little boy said a few words to the middle-aged man, and the man rolled his eyes and fainted on the ground.

There was panic and commotion in the church.

Alex took a few steps back, into the shadows.Angel, who was floating in the shadows, said softly: "The child said that the man's wife and daughter are all dead."

Alex nodded. Although he didn't hear the specific information, he could speak with his lips.What Angel said was exactly the message that the child wanted to convey, and because of this message, the man was so shocked that he fell into a coma.

Alex: "Could they have done it?"

"Maybe."

Soon, news came from the sheriff that the dead were not only the wife and daughter of the middle-aged man, but also a neighbor next door, a total of three people.All that was left was the head, which was placed on the dinner plate, and just listening to it felt extremely intrusive.

Moreover, there was a lot of blood splattered at the scene, and it was basically determined that the first scene was at home.

After the news was confirmed, the people in the church, who had previously felt a sense of salvation because of chanting the scriptures, all disappeared at this time.Everyone's face was pale and trembling. With such rampant serial killings, no one knew whether they would become the next victim of this serial murderer.

Everyone is anxious, and even some people who live alone are afraid to go home at this time.Even though the sun is shining outside, it still feels chilly.

The magistrate could only send a team of knights to pick up the people from the church.

Alex also went out with the knight, and he planned to go to the death scene to take a look.

When Angel left, he looked back at the empty church. He noticed that the face of Father Branlang standing in the front was extremely ugly...

That night, Alex came to the top of the church and stood on the watchtower.

This is not only the highest point of the Kruja Church, but also the highest point of the entire Gust Town.

Facing the cool night wind, Alex looked at the low buildings around. Because there was no night light, most of the areas were dark, which was the best cradle for breeding evil and killing.

Because the several consecutive murders showed one point, the pursuer might still be somewhere in Gust Town.Alex wanted to come here to see the situation and see if they could be caught.

Alex: "Will they still do it?"

Angel: "The facts have shown that as long as Mrs. Connie is not found, the opened magic box will not be closed."

Even, it will intensify.

While they were talking, footsteps suddenly came from behind. Alex turned around and saw Father Branlang walking up step by step.

"Alex, were you talking to someone just now?" Branlang asked in confusion.

Alex shook his head: "No, just talking to himself."

Bran Lang glanced at Alex suspiciously, and looked around. This watchtower is very small and cannot hide people at all, so Bran Lang didn't ask about it anymore, but said: "You come here at night doing what?"

Alex: "There have been so many cases in a row, my heart has been panicked, and I couldn't sleep, so I came out to blow some air."

Father Brenlang called out in a low voice: "Father God will bless the devout believers to overcome this difficulty."

After a pause, Branlang said again: "Gust Town is not safe now, you should go back and rest first, and..."

Alex wondered: "And what?"

Buren Lang sighed and shook his head: "It's nothing, you can go back and rest first. At least, under the blessing of God the Father, Keruja Church will be safe."

When Alex was still about to say something, a scream came from the dark night.

Alex looked back suddenly and found that the screams came from the south of Gust Town.

Alex originally wanted to leave the watchtower and go to have a look.However, Bo Lunlang grabbed him and shook his head slightly at him: "Go back and rest, I will deal with the matter here."

Alex was silent for a moment, but nodded in agreement.
