Chapter 1493 Father Berlanlang

When Alex walked down the watchtower step by step, his figure blended into the darkness and disappeared from his sight, Burrenlang sighed faintly: "What was supposed to come finally came."

After returning to the room, Alex lit the oil lamp and looked out the window quietly.

Although he didn't know what the previous screams meant, as time passed, he faintly heard the noise coming from the street.

"Have they appeared again?" This was Alex's doubt. In addition, he also had doubts about Father Burrenlang, always feeling that Father Burrenlang seemed a little weird. Just now, he stopped himself, and it seemed that he had other intentions.

As time passed, about ten minutes later, a figure slowly appeared in the room.

Alex: "Mr. Pat, did you find anything?"

Alex just returned to the room, but it didn't mean that Angell came back with him. Angell immediately went to the south of Gust Town to see the place where the incident happened.

"Two more people died, in addition to that..." Angell paused, and his eyes suddenly became dim.

Alex waited for Angel's words in confusion.

"Besides that, I also saw the perpetrator."

"Really? Is it Knight Raven?" Alex was shocked and asked quickly.

Angel shook his head: "It's not Knight Raven and Camelot, it's two other people."

When Angel said this, the illusion power surrounding the core of consciousness slowly transformed into two figures in front of him. One is a woman who looks fat and wide, and the other is a very thin and sickly man.

Angel: "These two people are also undead."

Alex swallowed a mouthful of saliva, stared at the two phantom figures, and whispered: "I know both of them. One is Ms. Martin who disappeared yesterday. It seems that she also encountered misfortune. The other one..."

"It's Mr. Shrek who died two years ago."

The perpetrators were not Knight Raven and Camelot, but Alex felt a more severe coldness. Does this mean that all the people who have been killed have become undead?

Although Alex had made similar guesses before, he still couldn't believe it.

After a long while, Alex gradually digested this shocking news. After recovering, he asked: "Mr. Pat, where did they go in the end?"

If we know the whereabouts of these undead, does it mean that we can find the person who controls the undead?

Angel shook his head: "They blended into the surrounding air and disappeared."

"Disappeared?"

"In my opinion, they are more like entering another special space in the cage." Of course, it is also possible that the undead left the cage, but this possibility is very small.

Another special space? Alex didn't understand what this meant, but before he could ask, Angel threw another bombshell.

"In addition to the two undead, I also caught a human figure at the scene. It was a human, not an undead."

Alex looked up suddenly: "Living person? Is it the controller?"

"Maybe, I didn't see it very clearly, because the figure disappeared first. I only saw a blurry back. What is certain is that it is a human. He brought the body of the murdered person and entered the special space I mentioned."

"Is it a man or a woman? What are the characteristics?" Alex asked hurriedly.

"I don't know." Angel now has no physical body. It is difficult to quickly obtain information on the scene with that little illusion power: "Speaking of characteristics... the back seems to be a little hunched."

Chunk is an obvious feature, but there are at least 700 hunched people in Gust Town.

It is unlikely to find someone based on this feature.

"In any case, at least one thing is certain. The controller is likely to have stayed in Gust Town all the time!" Alex said.

"In addition to this information, the special space is also useful information." The phantom beside Angel slowly disappeared and turned into a white cage.

Before yesterday, they only regarded this world as a white cage.

But today's information can confirm that there is a special space.

Angel's finger slightly pointed, and a shadow appeared under the white cage. Under the light source, it looked like a black cage. And this black cage may be the special space.

After Angel finished talking about what he saw, he asked a question: "Why kill these people?"

Yesterday, they speculated whether Anthony's death and Martin's disappearance were because these two people saw the face of Knight Raven, which attracted murderous intent.

But today's things are weird. Whether it is the murder case in the daytime or the two people who died just now, there is no special connection.

Why kill them?

"Could it be that they were seen while looking for Mrs. Connie in the town?" Alex still used yesterday's logic to make a guess.

Angel: "They must be looking for Mrs. Connie, but if they are looking for them openly, more people should see them. If they are looking for them secretly, it will be difficult for others to find them."

"I heard from Mr. Pat that the undead are naturally cruel. Could it be that they just want to kill people?"

"If the undead killed people, it would not be just these few people who died."

After denying several guesses in succession, the reason for the murder suddenly became a mystery.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through Alex's mind: "If it's not the undead, could it be the manipulator? Because Mrs. Connie can't be found, the undead manipulator began to gradually escalate the situation, and finally it may even get out of control?"

Although this guess seems possible to Angell. However, this is still just a guess. Nothing can be concluded until the manipulator is found.

After the matter was settled, Alex took out the case he recorded again, wanting to find the trace of the manipulator from the case.

But at this time, Angell suddenly said: "Just now in the watchtower, Father Berlanlang's behavior was a little strange, don't you think?"

Alex paused and nodded: "It's indeed a little strange, but he should not be the manipulator."

Because Father Berlanlang was with the sheriff all day yesterday, and when the accident happened just now, Father Berlanlang was also here, so it can be confirmed that Father Berlanlang is not the manipulator.

"According to the timeline, he is indeed not the controller. But we cannot be sure that there is only one controller." Angel said this and changed the subject: "Of course, judging from Father Berlanlang's performance in the past two days, his fear of death is just as you said, I don't think he is the controller. But-"

"His performance is very strange, as if he knows something."

Just now, Angel went to the crime scene as soon as he heard the scream. When he came back, he found that Father Berlanlang was still in the watchtower, looking at the place where the accident happened, with a very solemn expression.

This solemnity even made Angel feel his inner despair.

It was because of this feeling that Angel felt that Father Berlanlang might not be the controller, but he must know something inside.

There was another thing that Angel cared about but didn't tell Alex.

Angel always had a hunch, or the wizard's instinctive intuition, that Alex, an "outsider" like him, was very likely the meaning of the existence of this cage.

If this speculation is correct, the people around Alex need to be questioned.

Especially, Father Berlanlang, who saved Alex, adopted him, and tried to brainwash him with the divine scripture.

After a long silence, Alex nodded: "Father Berlanlang may really know something, but based on my understanding of Father Berlanlang, no one can get an answer to what he doesn't want to say."

"It's not certain. After all, the current situation has obviously changed, and he may become the victim." Angel said.

Angel's words suddenly reminded Alex of what Berlanlang said to him before: At least, Kruja Church will be safe under the blessing of the Father.

The subtext of this sentence is that as long as you stay in Kruja Church, nothing will happen?

Did Berlanlang say this intentionally or unintentionally?

Why?

Alex finally nodded: "I'll find a chance to test Father Burrenlang's words."

...

The night fell, and a new day came in the morning light.

It should have been a hopeful morning, but because of the murder that happened last night, the whole town of Gust was completely mired in gloom.

Gust is much larger than Gru, with a total population of nearly 10,000.

With so many people, generally speaking, the death of a few people will only cause panic to some people; for more people, they may be lucky, or they may not care at all, and they don't care about the misfortune of others at all.

But people died in succession, and the identities, status, and residences of these dead people were the same.

No one dared to confirm whether they would become the lucky one if the serial killer continued to commit crimes.

For this reason, almost everyone in Gust began to worry.

However, there are several types of anxious people.

Most people, unable to resist, still need to live, so they do what they should do on weekdays, just keep their anxiety in their hearts.

A very small number of people are affected by anxiety in their lives. Some of them stay at home trembling, not daring to move; some people come to the church to recite the scriptures and pray for the salvation of the Father God; some people go to the sheriff's place to pray for the protection of the Knight Guard.

The above are actually good, and some people think they have made a good choice, but they don't know that they have begun to walk towards the abyss.

Alex stood on the top of the church, looking at the end of the street, more than a dozen people with luggage, walking out of the town.

There is no doubt that this group of people chose to leave Gust Town. Hope to stay away to avoid the fate of being killed.

However, they don't know that leaving does not mean hope, but real despair.
