"You are not a reporter."

As soon as she entered the office, Maria said directly to Klein: "You came to the East District disguised like this to investigate something. I won't ask you, but you'd better leave now.

The East End of Time will not be stable, and you will lose your life."

"...Thank you very much for your advice."

Realizing that the other party had seen through his disguise, but still chose to continue acting for his own safety, Klein was a little moved, but he couldn't stop just now after seeing the traces of Lanrevus. He couldn't wait to find someone now.

He went to the gray mist for divination to confirm whether the person he just saw was really Lanerwus.

Seeing that the other party accepted her advice instead of taking it lightly like other reckless and daring bounty hunters, Maria felt a little relieved. "Your caution will allow you to achieve your goal." She comforted Klein.

, and added, "The East District is very chaotic. Maybe we will have opportunities to cooperate in the future. After that, you can go out through the back door."

"Thanks!"

Klein got what he wanted. He put on a full show. After the two chatted in the office for a few minutes, he quietly left through the narrow back door according to the other party's instructions. Lanerwus had long since disappeared, and he stopped staying and put away his belongings.

Walk towards the tram stop.

During this process, he spotted a slightly familiar figure among the homeless people opposite—Ms. Hugh? Klein instantly made a guess.

At this moment, a carriage suddenly stopped in front of him.

The carriage opened, revealing the face of an acquaintance. This was the great detective Isengard Stanton, who was also investigating the case. The two met by chance in the East District. The other party seemed to be still investigating the serial murder case, but it had not improved yet. They got in the car and exchanged greetings.

After a few words, Klein got on the streetcar. Instead of going home directly, he transferred to the Cragg Club in Hillston District.

In the lounge of the club, he quickly went above the gray fog to confirm that no one was following him.

At this point, Klein completely relaxed and felt scared. The breath of the "True Creator" lingered in his mind like a nightmare, causing the close-fitting clothes on his back to dry and wet, and then wet and dry again.

Klein presented a piece of tawny parchment and a dark red round-belly pen in front of him, and then wrote the divination sentence he had thought about long ago with familiarity: "The source of the inexplicable feeling of familiarity before."

Putting down the pen and leaning back on the chair, he entered the dreamland while thinking silently. In that gray and illusory world, he saw a figure.

This figure has ordinary facial features, wears round-rimmed glasses, and always looks down with a mocking smile. He is none other than Lanervus!

Finally found you! Klein stopped using his "Joker" ability to control his expression and muttered to himself through gritted teeth.

Immediately, Klein sat up straight and responded to Miss Justice's prayer. He controlled his emotions and spoke in a low and indifferent voice:

"No need to confirm, that's Lanerwus."

"You can report it to the Church of the Night Goddess and tell them that Lanerwus possesses the divinity of the 'Fallen Creator'."

Lightning flashes across the ever-dark night sky.

In the round tower of Silver City, two members of the "Six-person Council", Chief Colin Iliad and Elder Lovia, were having a silent confrontation.

Colin sat sideways at the table, staring at the back of his hand without saying a word. Lovia was also silent, her fingers slowly caressing the skull in her arms. This suffocating atmosphere has lasted for a long time, with only the anointing candle on the table.

It burns and flows quietly, with a little noise from lightning and thunder.

"...Tell me again what you felt that day." After a while, the demon hunter spoke hoarsely.

Lovia's expression was still indifferent: "More than twenty cycles ago, I heard the roar of the Lord, followed by extreme silence, and the peace that seemed to finally find support. Chief, the Lord has arrived."

"This is just your one-sided statement. Silver City has no capital for gambling." The experienced demigod was unmoved. He knew very well the "Lord" the other party was talking about and the omniscient and omnipotent one that Silver City had believed in for more than two thousand years.

There are many differences in the Lord. The omniscient and omnipotent Lord has never shown his dirty and dark side, nor has he tortured His believers with non-stop gibbering. Therefore, even if Lovia hinted and verified to herself many times, Colin Ilya

Te still maintained a cautious and skeptical attitude, trying to discern whether the other party was crazy or really feeling something.

It would be great if it was just as she said... Colin was still looking forward to it uncontrollably. But he was carrying the lives of the whole city and could not take risks because of the other party's few words. Caution and forbearance were the qualities that a chief should have.

This time the conversation ended in failure again, and Lovia did not feel frustrated. She was also a member of Silver City, so she naturally had to be responsible for her compatriots. The chief's resolute and tough attitude made her feel reassured, and at the same time, she felt relieved for herself.

I feel a little helpless because I can't produce more evidence.

Neither of them spoke, and they walked out of the round tower side by side. They separated at the first fork in the road and returned to their homes.

At the corner of the street, there is an aid center run by two pharmacists. It specializes in providing simple treatment and physical examination to people who have just completed their mission or returned from patrol. Since it is only preliminary treatment, other people in the city can also come here for daily treatment.

Drug test.

At this time, there was a queue in front of the rescue center. There were about ten people waiting for treatment. Half of them were holding weapons. It seemed that they had just completed their mission. The first person in the line who was undergoing examination seemed to be a couple. The husband stood beside

Next to him, his wife could not hide her joy, stroking her belly with her hands.

Obviously, this is a young couple who are about to become parents - in Silver City, new life is the most joyful thing besides the festival. Sure enough, under the affirmation of the pharmacist's smile, the people in the queue behind spontaneously applauded and blessed them.

The two kept thanking each other, and then the husband helped his wife to leave, whispering intimately on the way. They happened to pass by Colin and Lovia not far in front of them. They did not notice the chief and the elder, and they seemed to be delighted.

Filled the mind.

"I just said, I must be pregnant!"

The young lady excitedly said to her husband: "Didn't I tell you? Twenty-one cycles ago, I had a dream. I dreamed of a silver-white giant snake crawling under the golden cross and covering itself with its wings. I was right.

I prayed devoutly with the sign of the Lord, and the giant snake glanced at me with its ruby-like beautiful eyes... Ah, this child must be the messenger sent by the Lord! The Lord has not forgotten His devout believers and has sent the messenger to save us!

"

The husband was noncommittal about this dream, but he obviously didn’t want to spoil his wife’s interest, and continued following her words: “Yes, we must pray harder, and one day we will be saved... During this time, I don’t want to

It’s my shift vacation. I want to participate in a few more patrol missions, accumulate merit for hunting monsters, and prepare more food and meat for you and your children..."

"It's too early! I can still continue patrolling and hunting, and we can prepare delicious food for the children together..."

The two walked away talking and laughing. Behind them, Lovia and Colin stood motionless like stone statues.

Both of them looked at the back of the couple with almost greedy eyes, wanting to hear a few more words from them about that dream.

"Chief..." Lovia broke the silence first. She wanted to say something, but Colin raised his hand to stop her.

"No need to say more, let's wait and see what happens." The eyes of the old demon hunter shone slightly, as if he had found some hope at this moment.

He turned around, glanced reluctantly, then glanced at the back of the couple getting farther and farther away, and finally walked towards his quiet home.

At eight o'clock, it was dinner time. I sat in the best restaurant I could find in the East District, comfortably ordered a cream of mushroom soup, a vegetable salad, and a lamb stew, and began to enjoy a leisurely and quiet meal.

The taste is okay. I'll try it at the club next time.

The investigation task is very boring, and it is unnecessary for me to condescend to find a fraudster. To sum up, I decided to take advantage of the situation.

The servants really like the hunting game. I rummaged through the collection cabinet, and the one who was finally released to help was a member of the Andrerad family. There was only Sequence 5. It seemed that he was afraid of being killed by me, so he betrayed the others.

The guy who lives in the hiding place of my tribe is not very high-ranking, but he is very clever and cunning, so I chose him to run errands for me.

For this kind of thing, you only need to take a spiritual blood sample and run around the East District while sensing it. Individuals contaminated by Lanerwus' blood will be more sensitive to the blood of allies, and will behave out of control and even go crazy and die.

Very simple and without any technical content.

It seemed that another round of investigation was over. He came to the cafe where I rested. There was still scarlet color in his eyes and a joyful smile on his face. It seemed that he was really having fun playing this boring killing game.

.I took the note from him and glanced at it roughly.

Lanervus was very cautious. When I went out, the total number of contaminated people was about 350, and now one-third of the number has been completed.

Killing hundreds of people in broad daylight without attracting anyone's attention in a short period of time is not an easy task, even for demons. Also, from the text message my ally just sent me

It seems that the other party has noticed my activities and is doing more pollution as quickly as possible. It will really increase people's workload.

"Are you really following my orders to kill people?"

The soul is in my hands, of course I know that he cannot disobey my order, but I still asked casually: "I mean, you didn't kill uncontaminated people for fun out of boredom, or kill them and then dismember them and throw them away."

Spreading terror in a place where people will pass by will cause trouble for me, right?"

"Absolutely, absolutely nothing! Your Highness!" Andrelade's smile froze on his face and he lowered his head hastily. If he hadn't been in the cafe now, he would have knelt down and swore an oath to express his loyalty to me.

I interrupted his potentially endless apology and panic: "I understand, did you encounter anything?"

Andrelade paused, began to recall and think, and then shook his head honestly: "No."

"But when I passed by the small church of the Church of the Night in the East District, I happened to see a man wearing red gloves talking to the priest."

Is there something going on in the Church of Night? Is there someone they are looking for in the East District? I don’t count myself among them. If they are planning to cause trouble for me, then the person who comes to investigate must at least be the Archbishop of Backlund. If it’s just Red Gloves...

The pendant of 0-08 does come from the Church of the Night... The ones who were most damaged in the descent of the gods were indeed the Church of the Night and the Nighthawks... Lanerwus helped... It couldn't be such a coincidence that Lanluwus was found by them.

How did they do it? Who provided the key information to help them position themselves?

This mushroom soup tastes pretty good.

If I am really looking for Lanrevus, then I have to call my ally and ask him, "The night seems to have intervened. Do you still want that piece of meat?" If he wants it, I can get it too.

To arrive, that is to say, to fight with the Church of Night to snatch Lan Ervus away, but if the level involved is too high, it may attract the servant of God Arianna, and then...

But what does this have to do with me? I cut the white bread comfortably and put the stewed mutton in it while the other diners looked at me in surprise.

Regardless of whether the allies want the piece of meat or not, there will be fun tonight. This is quite an interesting pastime for the bored demon.
