Chapter 2726
As a result, until now, the original demon king has not been found, but the man-made demon king has returned from the underworld.
If this is told to others, it would be an extremely ironic thing.
Therefore, in the eyes of the Holy Church, there are actually two existing demon kings.
Of course, they cannot reveal this information.
——That is purely handing a knife to the hostile forces!
So in the eyes of the Holy Church, this situation is actually not the first time.
If they just can't find the [Demon King Returning from the Underworld], they can still withstand that kind of pressure.
After all, they have actually lost a [Demon King] and have not found it until now.
But the original [Demon King] did not cause any disaster, which made their mentality gradually paralyzed as time passed, and they were no longer overly nervous about the [Disappearance of the Demon King].
And the main reason why such a large-scale action was taken from the open to the dark this time was actually because public opinion had risen, and they had to set an example.
In short, the belief of the masses is their basic base, and it is also something they must maintain.
The rest is secondary.
But now, because of the appearance of the [Evil God], they finally lost their way.
"We can't go on like this."
"We must do something."
"But... what can we do?"
As a result, the Holy Church was completely lost.
...
When the masses have smelled something wrong, it means that the situation is really bad.
However, in the current era, ordinary people have nowhere to escape. Even if a disaster really comes, they can only bear it.
The peace and stability of the past ten years is something that was hard to dream of in the past.
But ten years is too short.
We haven't even started to enjoy it yet, is it going to end?
...
Turmoil and unrest are taking root in people's hearts.
But the internal operation of the entire kingdom is still stable.
On the whole, except for the increase in the frequency of seeing Holy Church personnel and members of the Kingdom Knights on the road, there is actually not much change in daily life.
Not to mention, it is inside St. Marian College, which is already isolated from the outside world.
...
After learning the intelligence, Dak did not point fingers at the command system within the faction.
At this time, it is very dangerous for an outsider to point fingers at an insider.
Those who were sent to search for the "evil god" were all in great danger of their lives.
If there was still a possibility of communication with the "devil king", then there was no communication with the "evil god" at all.
Only those who were present at the scene were qualified to make dispatches at the most urgent moment.
Therefore, Dak chose to continue waiting for the intelligence to come.
...
This wait lasted for the whole November.
December 1, Tuesday.
As soon as the calendar turned, Dak received the information from Ellie.
——Someone died.
The dead were an extremely innocent ordinary family.
They were located two cities away from the base of the cult organization where the "evil god" was summoned.
No one knew how the tentacles of the "evil god" reached there.
The witness was a goat milk deliveryman.
When he knocked on the family's door and found no one answered, he suddenly smelled a hint of blood, so he tried to push it in, and the iron door that was not locked opened inward.
With the sound of "creaking" coming into his ears, he saw the fragmented body parts scattered randomly in the yard.
The screams of the deliveryman alarmed the entire community.
The residents of the community hurried out and witnessed the desperate scene like hell.
The first person to be called to the scene was the Kingdom Knight who happened to be patrolling near the community.
Then the church members who received the information from the informant also hurried over.
Under the watchful eyes of the Kingdom Knight, the local church members isolated the scene as quickly as possible and found the church's magician, who was a priest.
The priest is just a profession, which does not conflict with the identity of the magician.
As soon as the priest arrived at the scene, he summoned the magic card with a serious face to analyze the environment, and then took out the props to collect blood, hair, meat slices and other items for further testing.
Due to the special situation at the moment, although the city is far away from the place where the evil god was summoned, neither the Knights nor the Church relaxed their vigilance.
Such strange and brutal cases are rare in peacetime, and it is inevitable that people will think of the worst.
Unexpectedly, this test really detected the "filthy divinity"!
As soon as the result came out, the corresponding information was immediately transmitted to the ears of the three forces through various channels.
Then the three forces immediately sent people to conduct further investigations on the crime scene.
As a result, they found the key clue from the bloody corpses on the ground-a body was missing!
The bodies of four of the five people in this family were torn into pieces and mixed together, and many of the body parts were crushed into meat, and it was impossible to tell who was who.
The chaotic state did not seem to be deliberate, but the "evil god" was so cruel.
The members of the cult organization that summoned it before also ended up like this.
And it was extremely difficult to find out that a body was missing under such circumstances.
But no matter how difficult it was, at least there were some clues, and everyone seemed very excited.
They had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
After all, the "evil god" is also a god. If it really stays hidden, there is really no good way to deal with it.
So although it is cruel, what they have been waiting for is the moment when the "evil god" hurts people.
For people who have come out of war, it is already common to prevent large-scale disasters by sacrificing a few people.
The young people of this era may not be able to accept this behavior immediately, but the older generation will not blink when making such a choice.
But the "evil god" is also evil. It didn't hurt anyone until this moment.
Generally speaking, the impression of the "evil god" is crazy, bloodthirsty, and irrational. After escaping from the cult base, it should kill everyone it meets, and the ground is covered with blood.
The saints who arrived later can naturally chase along the bloody trail and finally wipe it out and purify it.
However, the "evil god" is completely different.
Through this incident, all forces have inferred that the "evil god" has a certain degree of intelligence, which is more difficult than normal.
Therefore, when they found that one person's body was missing from the stone of the family of five, they immediately made an association based on his intelligence.
Instead of simply assuming that the missing body part was eaten by the "evil god".
...
"So, what about the survivor's information?"
Dak stood in the dormitory, and Ellie sat in front of him, connecting with Ashe.
When Dak asked, Ellie immediately looked up at the white wall and projected on the wall.
The information about the survivor was immediately displayed through the projection.
He was a young man who looked very ordinary in appearance.
If you have to find a little feature, it's probably just the sinister look between his eyebrows.
"Brown Gus, looks like an ordinary person, with a gang background at most. Let me see."
"Sure enough, he belongs to the local gang Black Seal Group and is a full-time thug of the Black Seal Group."
"He has four family members, but they have been confirmed dead."
"Other than that, there are no significant characteristics."
"I can't see anything special for now."
"He is just such a person, why did the evil god choose him?"
Dak was a little curious.
Aili communicated with Ash and soon projected new information.
That was the result of the maids of [Scorpio Palace] analyzing all the information about Brown Gus.
They checked everything from Brown Gus's 18 generations of bloodline to all the interpersonal relationships that could be contacted around him.
The final result was that this person was really an ordinary person.
Dak thought for a moment and said, "Let's not worry about what's so special about Brown Gus. Since we have a search target, it shouldn't be difficult to find him, right?"
Ashe's voice came from the projection: "It's not difficult to find him. We found his hair on the pillow in his bedroom, and then asked someone to cast a red line curse on him, and we easily locked his position."
Dak asked, "Then what?"
Since the position was locked, why didn't we find him?
Ashe said, "But when we were about to find him, the red line broke. The specific reason is unknown, but it is speculated that the evil god took action."
Dak asked, "Didn't you find a fortune teller?"
Ashe said, "I did, but I didn't predict anything."
Dak asked, "So what's the next plan?"
Ashe pondered for a while, and said, "We are ready to stop."
Dak couldn't help frowning and asked, "Why?"
Ashe said, "This is what the Duke wants."
Dak's brows relaxed slightly, and he immediately said, "It's better to stop, after all, this matter is too dangerous. What about the Holy Church and the royal family?"
Ashe said, "The Holy Church is still investigating, they are deeply involved and can't get away. The royal family has turned to wait and see, because they judge that the threat level of the evil god is low, and there is no need to mobilize troops."
"What do you mean by low threat level?" Dak couldn't hold it in.
Ash said, "Maybe it's because the evil god didn't kill wantonly after being summoned."
Find...∠书{≈Group:Ba⒌Qi.㈥六弁privedSisi2 Dak asked, "Who made the judgment?"
Ashi said, "Earl Jeffrey."
Dak frowned again, "If it's Jeffrey, is it Angus Jeffrey's father?"
Ashi said, "Yes, that Jeffrey."
Dak said, "A councilor."
Although Jeffrey is only an earl, he is one of the thirty-two councilors. It's not surprising that he was entrusted with an important task by the royal family this time.
And according to the current intelligence.
The evil god does have intelligence. Among the people killed by it, except for the family of five...four, there are only all the members of the cult that summoned it.
And the intelligence shows that the four people in the family are not good people.
