"Professor Brian, I know you like the workbench. There happens to be one that I eliminated somewhere. If you like it, I can give it to you." The meaning in Brian's eyes was so obvious that Owen couldn't even pretend not to see it. I can only say it with some helplessness.

Although it was eliminated, the sophistication of this workbench, even if it was far inferior, was still a good thing that he dreamed of. Therefore, Brian nodded with satisfaction, and then he was in the mood to listen to Owen ask him about the assassination.

Brian's throat was damaged, and Owen asked the Flame Queen to send him a device that would allow him to speak through an external speaker.

Of course, what Owen didn't say was that this thing had the ability to read the surface subconscious. To put it simply, Brian couldn't lie, at least he couldn't hide it from him.

"It was people from the Church of Flesh who assassinated me and took away the Book of Flesh in my hand." Brian said with a somewhat complicated expression. There were hatred, pity, fear, happiness, and a trace of relief in his eyes. Owen couldn't help but admire that the other party was really discerning, but no small eyes could accommodate so much emotion.

But what Brian said next made Owen not know what to say.

The Empire does not have a dominant sect like the Church of Light, which is common in other worlds. This is a good thing for a heretic like him who is obviously an outsider. However, the chorus of hundreds of schools of thought also represents a chaotic dance of demons. There are too many chaotic sects in the Empire. .

The Devil's Head had just finished causing trouble, and the Flesh Church came out again. Owen didn't know what to say.

Brian's next words gave Owen an even bigger headache.

Because of the Book of Flesh, Brian specifically inquired about the Church of Flesh. At this time, his body was destroyed, and he told Owen everything without any scruples.

The Church of Flesh and Blood is a very ancient church, and its specific history is unknown. It may be traced back to the beginning of the establishment of the empire, and it believed in an alien god.

The so-called alien gods refer to gods originating from outside the world. Such gods can be strong or weak. The weak ones can barely make a living, while the strong ones are so strong that they are unreasonable.

The Lord of Flesh is a powerful alien god who claims that all flesh and blood in the world comes from him.

I don’t know if it’s true or not, but it’s really strong, especially the unique flesh-and-blood rituals and magic, which makes the empire helpless, and many times of suppression have failed.

Fortunately, the Lord of Flesh is too far away from here, and the connection is not strong. In addition, many years ago, the high priest of the Church of Flesh actually sacrificed the blood of 100,000 people in a city to the Lord of Flesh, which aroused the emperor's anger.

Under the continuous suppression of the Empire over the years, the Flesh Church has become less arrogant than before. Otherwise, this time it would not be a quiet assassination and secretly taking away the Book of Flesh, but a hearty massacre and sacrifice. Only then This is the favorite method of flesh and blood cultists.

Brian then told the origin of the Book of Flesh. It was a gift from the Lord of Flesh and Blood when the High Priest of the Flesh Church sacrificed 100,000 people. It can be called an artifact.

Of course, what Brian held in his hands was not the real Book of Flesh, because the real Book of Flesh was destroyed in the battle with the Imperial Sword Master just after it was completed.

However, because the Book of Flesh contains the ultimate secret of flesh and blood, the fragments were collected by interested people and revised into three books, namely the Book of Five Senses, the Book of Blood, and the Book of Flesh and Bones.

Brian accidentally obtained the Book of Flesh and Flesh. If he had not become obsessed with his own research at that time, he might have practiced flesh and blood magic under the temptation of this book.

It's a pity that the traces of this book were leaked out, and people from the Flesh and Blood Church came looking for it. After all, this book is the holy scripture of the Flesh and Blood Church.

Owen was almost depressed. He originally wanted to find an enemy for the territory by making excuses, but he didn't expect that the enemy was too strong and dared to massacre a hundred thousand people in the city. He couldn't afford to offend him.

In desperation, Owen could only let people pretend, and then began to prepare Brian's treatment plan.

Killing Brian is not the purpose of the Flesh Church, so his life or death is not important. Even if he is saved, the Flesh Church will not specifically target him.

Moreover, it was not easy to get a professor, but the students have not graduated yet, so we can't just let him die and let him use his remaining energy at least.

As the victim, Owen did not intend to pursue the matter further, but he forgot that he did not have the final say in this world.

At this time, Black Hand's station, Little Thumb has been staring at the information in front of him for a long time, which is very rare for him who has always been decisive and shrewd.

Black Hand's intelligence ability is indeed outstanding. He has received quite detailed information about the assassination incident that happened at the magic school not long ago.

Of course, although Black Hand's intelligence capabilities are strong, they are not strong enough to predict the future. Little Thumb's intelligence agents in the North are also not wealthy enough to spread throughout the Hydera family's territory, especially the rather exclusive Green Shade Town.

But who allowed the assassins of the Church of Flesh to come to Akita Town through the Black Hand, and it was also the information provided by Little Thumb that allowed the assassins to successfully infiltrate the magic school.

It's just that Black Hand didn't know the other party's purpose before, so he left the matter to Little Thumb.

Little Thumb was originally very wary of the flesh and blood Church's assassins, because the Flesh Church's practice was massacre and blood sacrifice, which was obviously not conducive to the Black Hand's layout in the North. In particular, Akita Town also cost Little Thumb a lot of effort.

But Little Thumb was very curious about the purpose of the Flesh Church assassin, so he didn't do anything when the other party purchased the information about Green Shade Town.

It can be said that Little Thumb watched each other all the way into Green Shade Town, sneaked into the magic school, assassinated Brian, and took away something.

"Suspected fragments of the Book of Flesh and Blood." Based on Black Hand's intelligence, Little Finger can almost guess what it is. The question now is whether Black Hand wants to intervene in this matter.

With the behavior and madness of the Flesh Church, Black Hand is definitely not willing to provoke the other party, but the complete Book of Flesh is an artifact. Even if it is broken, the three books repaired from the fragments are still of extremely high value, especially the rumors The Book of Bones and Flesh, which can reshape flesh and blood, is the key to restoring youth and opening up immortality. I don’t know how many people in the empire want to get this book.

If the black hand gets this book, it can gain countless benefits just by using it to perform flesh and blood rituals to help people regain their youth or reforge their flesh and blood, so even the little-fingered city has to admit that it is heart-beating.

"Where is the target now?" Little Thumb asked. Harvey suddenly had a lot of cold sweat on his head. He resisted the idea of ​​​​wiping it off, lowered his head and said quickly.

"My men have lost track of him and are now looking for traces of him."

Little Thumb just nodded, not surprised by the result.

The assassins of the Church of Flesh are not bad in ability. What they lack is the intelligence in the North. Once they succeed, it will be difficult to catch the opponent's traces if they want to hide it. After all, flesh and blood magic can turn people into men, women, old and young. , anyone around you may be an assassin of the Church of the Flesh, even a dog at home.

There weren't many elite Black Hand personnel in Akita Town, so it was normal for him to be lost. Little Thumb didn't blame him, but asked Harvey to send him information on where he disappeared.
