7 The slaughtered monastery(1/2)

Maybe it was because of a big meal for players that was really nutritious. After a night of rest, Bernie returned to her vitality the next day.

However, when he approached the slaughtered monastery, he was still shivering by the sudden coldness.

The monastery is not far from Viscount Sinclair's manor, but passing by a wheat field and a turbulent stream, the rows of buildings are already reflected in sight.

However, before we could really get closer, even at least one thousand meters away, the surrounding temperature seemed to have spanned two quarters at once, from summer to winter.

"Master Bernie, why don't we stay here first."

Seeing this, the guard riding a horse beside him whispered a suggestion, and the other guard next to him also looked solemn.

The reason is not only because of this sudden drop in temperature.

It was still early at this time, and the light shining from the sun above my head was obviously very strong.

But looking down, the building complex, which was slightly hazy under the hilly high ground, seemed to be in another world, and it looked dim and deep no matter how you looked.

This situation is obviously not normal. The two guards, who are extraordinary people, were a little nervous after watching it.

"There will be no problem with Bishop Rhodes here." Bernie replied. Although his teeth were trembling unconsciously, his tone and expression were quite calm.

It seems that he trusts the leader of Bishop Rhodes.

However, in response to this, the white-robed bishop not far away just pulled the corner of his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he swallowed the words into his stomach.

However, his face had never been as relaxed as before, but it had become solemnity at this time.

Although I heard some news from the nearby nobles before, in fact, the group of nobles were afraid of getting into trouble and basically did not go deep into the monastery to investigate the situation. They just reported the information in time after finding that all the monks in the monastery were dead.

Therefore, the White-robed Bishop also just discovered that something was wrong.

He had thought that the monastery was massacred, perhaps because of a gang of invisible bandits and robbers, and even suspected that a nearby noble family had acted under the will of wealth.

However, before he arrived at the scene, Bishop Rhodes discovered that it was impossible for the man to commit the crime, but the devil!

The reason is very simple. This widespread cold phenomenon will only breed where the devil has arrived!

And looking at this range, it’s not an ordinary devil!

"How come there are devils coming here... Are there any variables on it?"

While secretly surprised, Bishop Rhodes did not hesitate and raised his hand to signal the team to continue moving forward.

As the sound of horse hooves hitting the surface kept ringing, the monastery named Amos also revealed its true appearance bit by bit.

It is called a hospital, but in fact it is a vast building complex, or a closed gathering place separated from the world, with its own church, bell tower, infirmary, garden, cemetery, canteen, etc.

Overall, it is similar to a small town structure, with various buildings standing neatly and orderly on both sides, and a clean and straight stone brick street in the center.

At the same time, as they approached, some details also came into view one after another.

There are countless dense locusts crawling and squirming on the surface of rows of walls, and in the grass on both sides, you can vaguely see venomous snakes entangled and twisted with each other.

The black crows standing in groups on the roofs of many buildings screamed hoarsely as the team approached. On the stone brick streets under their feet, lizards could be seen crawling around at any distance...

All this tells the story, and there is a large amount of darkness here.

At the same time, the corpses that were chaotic in the building complex also hit their nerves one after another.

Under the eaves, beside the well, inside the house, in the corridor...

It has been several days since the massacre, but these dead bodies still maintain a vivid and freshness.

Twisted, frightened, angry, sad...

It seems that there is some invisible force that maintains the emotional outlook of the deceased during their lifetime, and that people who have entered here can clearly feel how cruel what happened at that time.

In this atmosphere, everyone maintains absolute silence. While moving forward, only the sound of footsteps and some trivial sounds hidden deep in the surrounding environment exist.

When a loud barking of dogs suddenly came from a distance in the quiet atmosphere, the already solemn knights immediately shouted and shouted, and the war horses under them also slashed with their heads raised and neighed!

However, when the fully armed knights rushed towards the courtyard where the sound appeared, the situation they saw was silent.

In the yard, a group of hens were frightened by these intruders and screamed and ran around, and eggs stained with chicken feathers rolled around.

But a dog tied into a wooden beast house was grinning because of a group of moths.

But after seeing many aggressive armed personnel, it couldn't help but make a whimper, and while hunching in the kennel, its tail was clamped, making it look very timid.

The courtyard was quite quiet, and only the flock of chickens were still running around like headless flies. As their wings were scattered, a stinking smell was constantly lifted up by the airflow and pounced on the crowd.

Stepping on the muddy surface of the ground full of chicken shit, feeling the disgusting and unpleasant smell, everyone looked at each other and felt very embarrassed.

"We act separately."

After a brief silence, Bishop Rhodes turned to his deputy, and a middle-aged knight named Warren said, "You lead a team of people to the direction of the cemetery, where there may be some dead bodies crawling out of the coffin and clear them."

As he said that, he looked at the quiet young brown-haired man behind him again, "Bernie, come with me with your people."

Bernie nodded when she heard this. Although she was trembling with cold, her calm expression seemed even more mature than the knights around her, which made Bishop Rhodes feel very relieved.

But he has no more focus on cultivating young people at this moment.

Although he thought that discovering Bernie, the God-loving servant, was more important than investigating the monastery, after entering the monastery, Bishop Rhodes was all focused on figuring out the truth.

Or, it is all about guessing the specific identity of the murderer behind this.

In fact, Bishop Rhodes regretted bringing Bernie in at this moment.

Before, he thought about using this massacre to cultivate young people's words and deeds.

But now, he found that the level of the murderer who caused the massacre in this monastery was much stronger than he thought—

The large number of locusts and other poisonous insects that are flooded with the surrounding buildings are common phenomena that occur after the devil arrives.

But when a normal devil comes, a certain type of livestock within a radius of three niches will die collectively!

Domestic animals such as cattle, horse, chicken, or pigs.

However, not to mention the three-ligameter, even the domestic animals raised in the monastery itself were not killed or injured.

This is not limited to this group of lively chickens, they actually saw many living cattle, horses and livestock before.

At the same time, it has been nearly a week, but there are still many dark auras that can generate the dead spirit in the entire building!

You should know that this kind of residue does not refer to what the murderer did, but a natural phenomenon that occurs with the arrival of itself!

It can be compared to the body odor in humans, or the world itself responds spontaneously to it as the devil arrives.

This shows that the devil who once descended into this monastery must have a high level.

At least it will not be lower than the upper devil, or even the devil's grand duke!

The former is fine, but if the murderer is the latter, it is obviously not something he can handle.

Even if the other party left something, maybe all of them would be wiped out here...

He was secretly alert, but Bishop Rhodes was not scared to withdraw. After all, guessing was just guessing, and things might not be that bad.

And he didn't turn around and run away before he saw the real danger...

This seems to be true,

They were not in danger until the team arrived at the heart of the monastery, a towering church.

It seems that the murderer did not have the idea of ​​using this place to set up a trap.

On the contrary, the situation in this church made Bishop Rhodes grit his teeth.

Looking around, dozens of white bones were stacked around the rows of seats in the church, and countless insects were lying on these corpses, some crawling inside and outside the corpses, while others were gnawing on some corpses with still flesh and blood.

The white stone bricks on the church were now solidified with dry dark red blood pools. With the cold wind swaying into the hall, the smell of fishy smell came to the face.

The group appeared at the entrance of the church, which dispelled some of the dead energy here.

However, when layers of figures extending in due to the sunlight behind them cover the surfaces of the bodies and pools of blood, the light and darkness and blood are mixed, which makes the atmosphere in the church even more sad.

Bishop Rhodes's face became very embarrassing,

In any case, these people are monks of the church and even those whom they clergy need to be protected.

However, now it is slaughtered in its own church like a pig or a dog!

"I need to restore the truth."

He murmured like this, took off a string of milky white agate stone bracelets from his white robe's wide sleeves, and turned around and gave an order.

"I need to remain absolutely focused when casting. Pay attention to the clues. If you find something wrong, interrupt me in time. The devil may be ambushing me in this regard."

As he said that, without waiting for anyone to respond, he knelt on his knees towards a towering angel statue deep in the church, lowered his head and closed his eyes and murmured.

A smog of illusion was born out of thin air with the whisper of the white-robed bishop, and continued to expand as the whisper continued to grow.

In the end, there seemed to be a gust of wind in the originally quiet church, and everything around it was blown in chaos.

The hazy mist that appeared with the strong wind was like sand and dust blown by the storm, completely submerging everyone, but illusory scenes appeared from it.

It was like something was happening in a storm, the sound was buried by the roar of the storm, and it was like a mirage that emerged in the depths of the fog while ships sailed on the foggy sea.

At first, there were only trivial figures such as moths and insects in these scenes. Gradually, some magnificent figures appeared.

The picture finally stabilized, and people who were submerged in the strong wind could see it hard. In the scene made up of countless airflows, what emerged was the church under their feet and a massacre in the church!

It was indeed a massacre, and it was one-sided. The murderer was a short and fat figure wearing a gray wool robe, but he was facing a large number of monks in the same courtyard.
To be continued...
