I upgraded and added points in the Holy Inquisition

"Huh? Priest Malos, is there anything wrong with my process?"

Lloyd asked with some confusion.

His previous series of operations were all based on the experience in the butler's notebook and his own on-the-spot judgment.

As a PVP enthusiast, the housekeeper has encountered this situation many times, where the atmosphere was normal one second, but suddenly something went wrong the next, especially in scenes where criminals may cause trouble.

Lloyd remembered the original words in his note as follows:

"These cowardly people didn't dare to compete with me head-on again. They would only use intrigues and tricks to delay my time and interfere with my judgment. At first, I might have been fooled when I was inexperienced, but I quickly summed up four ways to deal with it. Their effective experience——"

"First, these rats rely heavily on divination. However, divination is not omnipotent and is also time-sensitive. Therefore, when investigating a suspicious area, you must develop a good habit of conducting a second investigation."

"Secondly, this group of rats cannot master many extraordinary abilities, which is very dangerous for them, so they also rely heavily on rituals, which is relatively safer. Once they notice something is wrong, they must first go to rituals. Directional thinking.”

"Thirdly, they always like to bring up some non-existent behind-the-scenes figures to threaten and intimidate, but it's just a bluff. Don't be afraid of this. Even if there is really a great behind-the-scenes figure, it's only the high-ranking and powerful people who should worry about it. matter."

"Fourth, once you lock the target, you must take action boldly and do not delay. It may lead to worse consequences, or they may escape. Of course, this must be based on the premise of being able to protect yourself."

So he basically handled it according to this set of ideas before.

The effect was excellent, the efficiency was extremely high, there was no trouble, and there was only one victim. The ending was so good that the security priest Malos found it unbelievable, and he continued to ask:

"Sir Lloyd, are you really not afraid of encountering traps or ambushes by those criminals?"

"Of course I was afraid, so I stayed vigilant and patient throughout the whole process and chose a step-by-step strategy."

Lloyd replied confidently.

Priest Malos was speechless for a moment and could only ask in his mind:

Step by step? Does it mean that it only took ten minutes to solve a case that usually takes hours to solve?

Since he was promoted to a priest, he has been working diligently for seven or eight years and has handled nearly a hundred cases like this. He thinks he has some experience and understanding of this kind of cases.

In a case like this, the normal procedure is to seal off the scene first and then evacuate the surrounding people, which takes a lot of time.

Then they search the entire building one by one to confirm the condition of each victim. If something is wrong, they have to be detained and controlled, which again takes a lot of time.

The last step is to identify the specific location where the problem occurred, and then transfer the case to the professionals of the Tribunal for handling. Usually, the Court of Holy Grace has more control, and occasionally someone from the Court of Holy Grace will take over.

Anyway, it has nothing to do with the Holy Inquisition, whose main responsibility is to deal with monsters. This is also the first time that Priest Malos has encountered someone from the Holy Inquisition intervening in such a case.

The result did not follow the standard procedure at all...

Although that set of standards seems slow and inefficient, it also seems cowardly and unreasonable.

But only those who are really engaged in this industry understand that those seemingly strange details are often summed up with blood and life.

No matter how careful you are about those insidious, cruel and vicious criminals, you can never be too careful.

As an experienced security priest, Malos still clearly remembers that when he was still a newcomer, he was negligent during an operation and did not notice that something was wrong with a 'victim'. As a result, he suddenly broke out and injured someone on the opposite side. …

If the support from Holy Grace Court had not arrived in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

I have also heard that a team of people went to investigate an underground warehouse that was not right, but because the priest who led the team was eager to perform meritorious deeds, he went in with ordinary police officers without the support of the Inquisition.

When reinforcements arrived later, everything was too late...

"In short... although this case should have been properly resolved, if you encounter this situation again in the future, it is best to wait for us to come over before handling it, or to handle it according to standard procedures."

Priest Malos gave a serious advice.

Although Lloyd was a reckless youngster in his eyes, the unique gray uniform and the exquisitely crafted command knife at his waist showed that he was a talented young man who was highly valued by the Holy Inquisition.

Malos sincerely hopes that a talented young man like this can show his talent on a broad stage like the Great Development, instead of dying in the machinations of criminals.

"Thank you for the reminder, I will remember it."

Lloyd also answered seriously.

He can feel the goodwill of the other party, although he does not agree with the other party's ideas.

If I had moved slower, it was hard to say what would have happened to the other victims in the building, including my sister’s four subordinates...

There are differences between the housekeeper's ideas and the standard procedure, but it cannot be said to be right or wrong, just different abilities and different choices.

The two then chatted for a while, then saw the pastor who came with them came out of the cubicle, took off the mask on his face, and said:

"After a preliminary autopsy, the deceased died of cardiac arrest. He suffered terrible mental pain before death, but his limbs showed no signs of struggle, and he did not suffer any other skin injuries except his eyes. I think this should be obvious. Already..."

Lloyd recalled for a moment and remembered seeing something similar in the butler's notes, so he asked:

"This seems to be a trick of the [pain] system?"

The security priest Malos answered helpfully:

"Yes, the infamous [Painful Gaze] uses a unique gaze to affect the victim's nervous system, allowing them to endure extreme pain until their heart stops beating without being able to struggle but staying awake... "

The priest also nodded and added:

"But this ability is difficult to use, and only pain-related criminals with a certain level can master it..."

As he said that, he suddenly turned to look at Lloyd and asked:

"Your Majesty the Executioner, when you entered this place, did you notice any eyes staring at you?"

Lloyd nodded quickly.

And not just one strand, but several strands.

The pastor was stunned and asked again:

"Then what? You don't feel anything strange?"

Lloyd shrugged, spread his hands again, and replied:

"Some scalp numbness? Feeling slightly uncomfortable?"

"Ah this..."

The priest and the priest looked at each other at the same time, and both saw the look of disbelief on the other's face.

[Painful Gaze] is not only extremely vicious, but also particularly insidious. Once caught, you will have to endure severe mental pain while losing physical control, making it difficult to counterattack.

But this ability is not omnipotent, and it also requires considerable risks. What really affects other people's nerves is not the line of sight, but the extended inspiration and spiritual power.

This means that they need to extend their inspiration into the victim's body, and then guide the spiritual power to invade to cause damage.

If you use this technique against a powerful person in a high position, let alone causing pain to others, you may not even know how you died.

Therefore, this ability is often used to bully the weak, especially ordinary people with little inspiration and spiritual power, which makes it particularly vicious.

After the priest was stunned for a while, he quickly realized something and used the flashlight to shine at Lloyd's eyes.

Priest Malos also helped, pressing Lloyd's shoulders, causing him to be dazzled for a while.

"Is it really okay?"

The pastor put down the flashlight with a puzzled look on his face, then apologized:

"No offense, just concerned about your mental state."

"Does your pastor like to dazzle people so much?"

Lloyd asked while rubbing his eyes, dumbfounded.

"This is the most effective and intuitive detection method."

The other party explained.

Just at this time, there was another sound of footsteps outside, and then a Holy Grace Hunter wearing a trademark three-cornered hat and a cartoon fox mask appeared in front of the door.

"Huh? Mr. Lloyd?"

When the man saw Lloyd, he first greeted him warmly, then came closer and shook hands with Lloyd.

"You are the one I met at the subway gate last time?"

Lloyd couldn't distinguish these guys who liked to work with masks, so he could only ask tentatively.

"Yes, I didn't expect to meet here again. Can you please cooperate with us and leave a transcript?"

The hunter made a very reasonable request, and then asked one of his subordinates to take Lloyd to the next room to take notes, while he led another subordinate into the compartment.

Then came out again soon after, arriving at the same judgment as the priest.

"It is indeed [Painful Gaze]. If nothing else, he is the guy we are tracking recently. He is a key member of the illegal association 'Hermitage of the Dawn', codenamed 'Phantom Pain'. The most deletion is this vicious trick."

"Is this also related to the [distortion] you asked me to investigate before?"

Priest Malos asked.

As a front-line security priest, he often helps and cooperates with the actions of the Holy Court. He also has some understanding and rights to various cases. He is also an old partner who has worked with this fox-faced hunter many times.

"Yes, we at the Holy Court received four anonymous reports one after another. After some investigation, we caught another cadre of the 'Morning Hermit Society' and found that they have recently been actively contacting the taboo system [ Distorted knowledge..."

The hunter said, then lowered his voice and added:

"According to our further investigation, we found that the Holy Inquisition was severely manipulated by them before, and they were so embarrassed that they were unwilling to make the matter public."
