Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest
Chapter 16 Guarding Ground
After passing the guards who were guarding like an arch, Luo Xiu, Connor and Pamier came to a locked abandoned warehouse.
The heavy iron chain was hanging, and the two iron doors were not neatly placed together. Mayor Rupert took the key from the guard next to the warehouse.
——Clang clang clang...
After a while of fiddling, Mayor Rupert opened the chain, and the guards on both sides pulled open the iron doors.
A fishy smell came from the depths of the warehouse.
This is the smell of rotting corpses... Luo Xiu frowned, but Connor and Pamier walked straight in as if they didn't smell anything.
The interior of the abandoned warehouse had been emptied in advance, leaving nothing behind.
According to Mayor Rupert, he was very smart to think in advance that if the two corpses really "resurrected", there would be nothing in the warehouse for them to use as weapons.
In the abandoned warehouse, there were only two bodies placed side by side in the middle. Luo Xiu could tell the identity of the bodies just by looking at the integrity of the heads.
Then he looked at Pamier and Connor, and saw Connor frowning, as if he had discovered something wrong.
Then, Connor turned to Mayor Rupert and asked in a stern tone:
"... Mayor Rupert, do you think you can rest easy just by clearing the warehouse?
You actually let people put the two bodies of the [Red Lotus] believers together, this is the biggest danger!"
"What...what?" Mayor Rupert's originally somewhat arrogant expression shrank in an instant, "I, I don't know..."
"I have emphasized this kind of thing, these are all very common details."
Pamier shook his head, and a cold voice came out from under the helmet, "'If you encounter this situation again, you must separate the bodies for care', I remember I warned you about this.
This is your dereliction of duty, Mayor Rupert, I will report your dereliction of duty to the Holy See."
"..." Mayor Rupert wanted to argue something else, but after thinking about it, he sighed and lowered his head.
Luo Xiu watched the scene just now happen in front of him quietly, and he was secretly happy.
This mayor... his every word and action was to please the honorable "holy judges". After all, he regarded the holy judges as protectors, but it was obvious that he still made a serious mistake.
"The worst situation did not happen, my lords..."
Luo Xiu tried to smooth things over and said with a smile, "This is the best result. We should pay tribute to the glory and forget these unpleasant things."
Connor and Pamier nodded, glanced at the pitiful Mayor Rupert, and said nothing more, but focused on observing the bodies of the two "blood disciples".
Seeing this, Mayor Rupert slowly breathed a sigh of relief and cast a grateful look at Luo Xiu.
This time, the mayor's eyes were no longer mixed with the previous suspicion and rejection, only friendliness and gratitude.
Luo Xiu nodded slightly, and then looked at the two people observing the corpse.
Pamier stood behind Connor, and Connor stretched out his hand and touched Ford's body.
The light golden light passed over the body like silk and then disappeared.
"The body's spirituality has completely dissipated... I can't feel any spirituality left from the murderer..."
Connor said, "It can be burned immediately."
After that, Connor walked to the other side, stood in front of Morris's body, and "sensed" the body in the same way.
"... This body still has a trace of its own extraordinary spirituality." Connor said, "We need to wait for the spirituality to completely dissipate before we can burn it."
"Then, what about the attacker... Who is the murderer?" asked the mayor.
Connor shook his head and said, "I didn't sense any spiritual remnants from the murderer on these two bodies. Maybe they were not killed by the extraordinary."
"Not killed by the extraordinary?"
The mayor was stunned, "Then, who killed them... Were these cultists killed by ordinary people?"
"How should I know? I am only responsible for solving "supernatural events."
Connor spread his hands and said:
"If you think the murderer is an "ordinary person", you can ask those [Supreme] people in the Law Office to solve it...
However, my personal suggestion is that the people who killed those cultists of [Red Lotus] will not threaten your wealth and status."
"...Okay." The mayor compromised in a low voice.
"Well, my lords," Luo Xiu interrupted at the right time and asked, "You said to wait for the spirit of this corpse to completely dissipate, so what should we do before that?"
"Let these soldiers guard it well."
Connor looked at Luo Xiu, winked, and said seriously:
"We will come here every day to check the spiritual residue of this corpse.
If something really happens, we will come here to solve it as soon as possible."
"Okay." Luo Xiu nodded.
While the conversation was going on, Luo Xiu immediately understood the "look" that Connor gave him.
As a priest with the double destiny of [Glorious], Connor was fully capable of "dispelling" the spiritual residue on Morris's body on the spot, but he did not do so.
And the "Paladin" Pamier did not have the skills related to "dispelling", which was a pure combat profession.
In this case, among Luo Xiu's many assumptions, there was only one possibility that was closest to the truth——
——This priest wants to take a paycheck and fish in a reasonable way!
Because coming to Dawn Town for a mission does not require "supernormal" level combat...
Supernormals are also human beings, and they also need to travel on public funds and reimburse food and drink!
I understand, I understand...
A knowing smile appeared on Luo Xiu's face. He nodded slightly to Connor and Pamier and said, "In that case, the two adults will stay at the mayor's mansion or go to the church..."
"Let's go to the mansion." Connor and Pamier said in unison.
...
It was already evening when they returned to the Glorious Church from the guardhouse.
After Luo Xiu used "Healing" and "Prayer" to drain the last bit of mana, and gained proficiency and experience points, he lay down on the bed with a little fatigue.
However, Luo Xiu's eyes were shining with unprecedented excitement at this time.
He always remembered what Pamier had said on the way to the guardhouse.
——If the bodies of extraordinary people are activated by some malicious existence, or if some kind of deformation occurs inside the bodies, these bodies will be "resurrected" immediately and become terrifying monsters!
Luo Xiu thought of a plan.
And after a whole day of observation, this plan is feasible!
The problem that he was worried about before was that there were no undead monsters in the "Dawn Town"...
"If either of the two bodies of Morris or Ford is "turned into an undead", then the problem will not be solved?!"
All the way, Luo Xiu suppressed his excitement and held it back until this moment.
Now he finally has time to make the first attempt in his plan!
At the same time as Luo Xiu's idea emerged, a wolf like fire slowly emerged from the shadows.
The next second, Fenrir jumped out of the window and disappeared from sight.
