Chapter 979 Forty-six. The shadow behind

  【I have never forgotten what they did to my family, the abominable heresy, the false gods whose beliefs do not exist... I am back, and I will take everything back from you! 】

  【I want revenge. They were locked in the basement by me, feeling the pain I once felt...]

   "Jaeger, investigate the basement."

Under the command of    Kiruat, Jaeger approached the basement.

  【All heretics will bear the fire of my vengeance...as they once cast upon my body. revenge! revenge! revenge! revenge! revenge! 】

   The handwriting full of revenge became more and more scribbled until it was indistinguishable. On the back of the page, Lu Li found the last line of the foreign believer's message.

  【They are also victims aren't they...】

   "There are still people alive!"

   Jaeger's surprise shout came from the basement to the ground.

   Outside the door, the nun, who was afraid to come in, rushed into the basement in surprise. Lu Li confirmed that there was no more content in the note, and that the foreign believer had indeed died. He picked up the obvious set of keys on the table beside him, and followed him into the basement.

   The clammy and rusty smell of blood filled the basement, and they saw seven silhouettes bound to the improvised torture device.

   In addition to the dead believers, the remaining six believers are still alive, and two of them are seriously injured.

   Alien believers have not yet had time to abuse, or wake up from madness...

   Jaeger took the key and helped the nun rescue the believers of the Church of Yunjue.

   "It's a coincidence that it appears once, it's not necessarily the case that it appears twice..."

   Kiruat whispered at this time. Everything is arranged properly. Dead murderers, notes to record passages, keys to release believers... It's hard to tell if the act is benign or malicious.

   On the surface, there is to help the Holy Light team, but Lu Li has a special status, and his goodwill is not complete, and there may be some kind of conspiracy hidden.

   At this moment, the hazy light scattered from the ground into the basement suddenly faded, and a vague silhouette stood in front of the door, shouting loudly and sharply.

   "Caught you! Accept failure and say goodbye to the light!"

  The door slammed shut, shrouding the Holy Light team and believers in the basement into darkness and despair.

   After a few seconds, the door opened again, revealing a head.

   "Hey, did you scare you?" Naxi who stayed on the ground laughed.

   "Do you mind if I beat up the team?" Kiruat undid his hand shield expressionlessly.

   "Correct, it's a training." Jaeger added gloomily.

  Lu Li's hand was pulled out of the stomach bag.

"do not mind."

  The result of this mission was quite successful: the Holy Light team was not injured, except for Naxi who was beaten; most of the missing believers were alive, and the perpetrators, the foreign believers, paid the price of their lives.

   It would be better if there was no fog shrouding the truth.

   Imprisoned believers told the Light Team that they did not know the heretic. Back at the church, a nun told them the truth.

   There was a radical believer in Yunjue Church who turned into a murderer and sacrificed to the gods. The infidels of this attack may be relatives of the original victims.

  The radical believer was finally captured by the guards of the Knights and sentenced to hang. The poor believer who was tortured to death by the foreign believer and the Church of Yunjue, which had never recovered, became his scapegoats.

   "Is there anyone else to ask besides us?" Naxi, with a bruised nose and a swollen face, asked vaguely.

   He felt a little wronged, Kiruat and Jaeger were too hard.

   But Kiruat and Jaeger don't think so: either Naxi was wronged, or he was too heavy.

  Unfortunately, the Church of Yunjue didn't know anything about it, except for the Holy Light team, no one had contact with them.

  …

   "No matter what, the conspiracy behind cannot be ignored."

  In the lounge, Kiruat, who changed into a loose nightgown, came to the fireplace. She had just taken a shower, and the movement of tilting her head and rubbing her wet hair softened her a lot.

   "There is no need to hide yourself if you are showing favor."

   "What's the point of doing this?" Naxi said vaguely.

   "Don't move," whispered Jaeger, who applied the potion to him.

   "Perhaps to attack when we're suddenly slack?" Kiruat tilted his head to the other side, his dry hair quickly drying under the fireplace.

   "Can we take the difficult task to draw out the existence behind?" Jaeger took out the anti-curse potion and let Naxi smear the wound himself.

  Beat... Or in the process of training Naxi, Jaeger inevitably imposed a curse. While it's okay to leave it alone, it can be painful for a long time like a bee sting.

   "What if it doesn't show up? We can't complete the mission." Kiruat replied.

   If the mission fails, you will be restricted from being able to receive the mission for one week, and there will be a penalty of deducting the team points - in order to prevent the team from frequently accepting difficult tasks, and to protect the mission parties.

   "We should hiss... we should tell the professor about this." Naxi gasped and asked in confusion, "Why hasn't the curse been removed?"

   "I also added some curses." Kiruat said casually, looking at Lu Li.

   "I will ask Professor Chris." Lu Li nodded lightly.

   Summoned businessman Anthony to come, and Lu Li wrote down his two mission experiences and told Professor Chris.

  【Sounds interesting, why not continue to accept the little elves who help you? 】

   "Because it might be a conspiracy." Lu Li replied.

  【Is this the sharpness of the exorcist...then let's bring it out. give me some time dear. 】

   Put away Professor Chris' reply, Lu Li told the waiting teammates: "It will take a few days."

   "Then let's take a break for a few days." Kiruat said.

   In the next few days, Lu Li seemed to have returned to the lower grades in the canopy area and no longer went out. Just wandering between the library, the dining room, the classroom and the lounge.

   It seems that the celebrity effect, Lu Li's class has students coming one after another, which makes the professors' lectures delayed, and they have to close the classroom after class and prohibit entry.

   Lu Li has not conducted a level 4 trial of mysticism for the time being. Usually, the difficulty level of the 4th-level trial is similar to the task they performed in the late night city, except that it becomes a single player. It is not difficult for Lu Li to pass, but there is still a possibility of failure.

   Kiruat's advice is: go for the test when you feel like you can pass. Even if it fails, you can start over after 15 days.

  Lu Li accepted her suggestion, continued to accumulate, and then started the Level 4 trial until the existence behind the scenes was resolved.

   Peacefully spend a few days in middle grade.

  The shadow of Margaret's passing has disappeared in the Holy Light team, and only in the dead of night, the suppressed cry of Kiruat lying on Margaret's bed can be vaguely heard.

   On the fourth day of calm, businessman Anthony brought news from Professor Chris: The spider web has been laid out, waiting for the self-injection behind the scenes.

  Dark morning.

  Lu Li and Kiruat went to the quest hall and followed the prompts to find the quest that Professor Chris asked him to choose.
