Chapter 19 Inquiry

Roman saw that it was a simple silver coin with a complicated pattern but no specific meaning.

Sotos Young then spoke, "This coin is called a 'lucky coin'. It can occasionally bring me a certain degree of luck. The simplest ones are like picking up money when I go out, or accidentally avoiding the enemy."

Attack this kind of luck. But this luck is completely uncontrollable. I don’t know when or how luck will come. I can only wait passively. Just after I was attacked, I knew that I had received luck again, so

Only then can I persist until your arrival.”

"This is very much like the 'lucky man'." Roman thought in his mind, but did not say it out loud. When there was a "punisher" next to him, he didn't want to appear too knowledgeable, which would be a bit out of character.

.

After continuing to chat with Sotos Young for a while, he refused to give him a "lucky coin" as a thank you gift, "I deserve this..."

Before Roman finished speaking, he saw Cordoba Roye, wearing a dark blue bishop's robe, walking towards him.

He glanced at Sotos Young and said to Roman: "Mr. Carpo, come with me. There are some things I want to know from you."

Then he turned around and walked towards the basement.

It happened that Roman also wanted to tell him something, so he nodded to Sotos Young and quickly followed Cordoba Roye towards the basement.

On the way, Roman heard the deacon of the Church of Storms in front of him say: "Mr. Carpo, I heard Fred mention you and read your information. I didn't expect you to be even better than what Fred said. He provided

The report shows that you are a brave warrior, but you are just a 'fighter'. Now it looks like you are at least a 'fighter', right?"

Roman thought to himself that the information provided by the captain to the church had not been updated yet and he had already been promoted. He said, "Yes, Mr. Deacon, I have just been promoted to 'Fighter' these days. I just met the captain tonight. He should still be there."

I didn’t have time to report it to the church.”

Cordoba Royer looked back at Roman: "There is no need to explain for Fred, I have never doubted his piety, and I also agree with his evaluation of you. Your performance tonight is indeed heroic.

.”

As he said that, Cordoba Roye's tone softened a lot.

He continued: "Everyone has their own secrets, but some people's secrets will not harm others or their partners, so we can choose not to pursue them. The Lord teaches us, 'For brothers, we must keep

Understanding and tolerance', you should know what I mean."

Roman lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Deacon."

As they talked, the two of them had already returned to the basement.

I saw the "detective" just coming over, saluted to Cordoba Royer, turned to Roman and said: "The storm is above, Mr. Carpo, I really don't know how you survived.

I just checked the remnants of the ritual magic, and there are still strong traces of curses there, which need deeper purification. In any case, I suggest that after you treat your injuries, you go to the church to attend a mass to calm your emotions and purify your soul, so as not to

There is hidden, deeper pollution."

"Thank you for reminding me, I will go to the church on time." Roman accepted his kindness.

"Your Excellency, Deacon, we can know from the remaining documents that this is indeed a stronghold of the Gnosis Society in Bayam. There is a lot of important information. Everything here needs to be brought back to the underground of Wave Church."

Cordoba Roye nodded, took off the Holy Emblem of the Storm from his chest, and handed it to the "Punisher" next to him, "Take the Holy Emblem of the Storm and go to Karim and ask him to take it."

Someone is here to help.”

"Yes, Mr. Deacon."

Deacon Cordoba Royer looked at the person next to him and said: "Mr. Carpo, there will be some follow-up inquiries later, and I need your cooperation with Mr. Sotos Young. Now please wait next to me.

The team members will help you treat your injuries first."

Cordoba was talking about the wound on Roman's shoulder that was stabbed by the witch's dagger. Due to the strong frost attack, the wound looked quite ferocious.

However, Roman had a feeling that with his own constitution, even if left untreated, the wound would heal slowly over time and it would not be serious.

Of course, Roman would not refuse kindness. After a "punisher" treated his wounds, Roman began to wait.

After the second wave of "Punishers" arrived, Roman and Sotos Young left the scene with Deacon Cordoba Royer and returned to the Church of the Waves. They met the bishop of the diocese, Joe Gory.

The bishop once again asked in detail what happened, and Roman also heard from Sotos Young the information the witch asked him.

"'Hilde Downton', that's the name she tortured me with at that time. She asked me about the specific situation and whereabouts of this gentleman." Sotos Young said.

Bishop Chogori thought for a moment, confirmed that he did not know the name, and asked: "Who is that? Why did the witch ask you about his whereabouts? Where is this gentleman now?"

I know this, Roman thought secretly, this should be the pseudonym of Abraham.

Just listen to Sotos Young's answer: "Your Excellency, Mr. Hilde Downton, a lecturer in the History Department of Tingen University, came to Bayam seven days ago with his assistants and students, saying that

I visited the ruins, conducted archaeological research, hired a local guide through the 'Adventurers Mutual Aid Association', and then disappeared without a trace."

Sotos Young looked helpless, "I met him twice and was deeply impressed by his profound knowledge and humorous conversation. He also entrusted me to help him find reliable bodyguards to return to Pulitzer Port. In addition, we

There was no communication at all.”

Hearing this, Qiao Geli said: "Did Mr. Downton ask you for any specific information, rumors, stories or other information?"

Sotos Young thought for a moment: "Mr. Downton is a very knowledgeable person. I talked a lot with him in the two short exchanges. But if he deliberately inquired, it seems that he has a lot of knowledge about Blue Mountain."

I was quite interested in the primitive jungles on the island and surrounding islands, and I brought the topic there several times. However, because of the indigenous people and so-called rebels scattered throughout the jungle, I didn’t know much about the situation in the jungle, so I didn’t talk in depth.

Those topics.”

Bishop Chogori thought for a moment and said to Cordoba Roye, "You are responsible for continuing to trace along this line, so that the witch can take risks and commit crimes under the watchful eye of the Lord. The identity of this Mr. Downton

It must be more than just a university lecturer. Continue to investigate the local guide who showed him the way, investigate the hotels he stayed in, the places he visited, and find out his true identity and the purpose of coming to Bayam."

"Yes, Your Excellency Bishop!" Cordoba Roye made a fist and hit his left chest.

"Contact the guards of the Lord of Tingen and ask them to help investigate Mr. Downton's interpersonal relationships in Tingen. At the same time, send a telegram to the church to report the matter. I will report to Lord Coatman.

, you should come up with a report on this matter as soon as possible."

The gray-haired Bishop K2 also clenched his fist and hit the left side of his chest, saying, "The storm is with you."

"The storm is with you." Cordoba Roye returned the salute with a low standard, and then looked at Sotos Young.

"Please, Mr. Sotos Young, come with me. We still need more clues from you."

After the two left, Bishop K2 drew a simple Holy Emblem of Storm on his chest, and then looked at Roman, "Mr. Carpo, we can talk about you now."
