Chapter 1127 Silver Key
"I didn't expect there would be so many monsters. How did they appear?"
The monsters attacked not only the Carter family, but also other people in Salem. Several people died in the attack. This was also thanks to the fact that Salem was a port city and the villagers basically had weapons in their hands. Otherwise, the casualties would definitely be even more severe.
In fact, these weapons were not originally used to deal with these monsters, but to guard against the locals. Salem was a colony, and the people in the town basically immigrated from other places. They seized the land of the locals and drove them to the wilderness. In this case, the locals would naturally retaliate. Abigail's parents were said to have died in the attack of the locals.
"All this must have been caused by the Whitley family. That guy must be a witch."
After all the monsters were killed and the wounded were almost dealt with, someone immediately attributed the appearance of these monsters to the Whitley family in the village, and even regarded Lavinia as a witch. In the excitement of the crowd, Judge Hopkins immediately asked the soldiers to arrest the Whitley family, but because Lavinia was not at home, she escaped.
After that, the trial began. It went smoothly. Absalom Wetley did not make any more defenses and was sentenced to death by hanging by Hopkins.
Although Mash, Ritsuka, Da Vinci and others had some doubts about such a hasty trial, as outsiders, their suggestions were not adopted and the hanging was carried out in the afternoon.
Abigail was still sad because Tituba had just died not long ago. Now even her only good friend was wanted, which made her even more sad. After Mash comforted her, she said that she could help find Lavinia.
The Wetley family was the one with the magic workshop that Da Vinci had discovered before. Among them, Lavinia, Da Vinci had talked to her before and was warned by her. It seemed that she knew a lot of things, but unfortunately she ran away before Da Vinci asked carefully.
Finding Lavinia can not only help Abigail, but also may allow their investigation to go further. However, although Salem is not big, they can't look for Lavinia openly because of these villagers.
"How could this happen?"
The execution of the Whitley family went smoothly, but what happened afterwards surprised everyone. Absalon, the head of the Whitley family who had just died, and his son turned into monsters in front of everyone. After that, many monsters crawled out of the hill cemetery on the side.
The sudden appearance of the monster made Hopkins very panicked, and he desperately called for the soldiers to protect him. This sudden change forced the Fujimaru Ritsuka Troupe to get involved in the battle.
"What is your purpose?" Hearing the strange words from Absalon's mouth, Da Vinci immediately asked. This was the first monster that could speak.
"God, summon, pain, door." Absalon uttered some words that sounded unrelated, but at this moment, Carter suddenly shot him dead. This result surprised Da Vinci very much. She could get some information immediately, but Carter killed the other party at this time. It was too coincidental.
With the help of the troupe, the group paid the heavy casualties of several soldiers and finally eliminated all the monsters. It would have been too easy for the troupe to eliminate these monsters with their strength, but unfortunately, because they could not expose their abilities beyond ordinary people, the group had to restrain themselves and could only perform at the level of ordinary people.
After that, the group went back, and some soldiers stayed to deal with the aftermath, and some protected Hopkins back to his residence. However, the people from the troupe did not immediately return to Carter's house, but continued to look for Lavinia's trace.
"Lavinia, can you tell me what you left?" Finally, Shen Fei and Da Vinci found Lavinia together in the forest.
"This is none of your business, foreign magician, I advise you to leave here as soon as possible, otherwise it may be too late." Lavinia said, turning around and preparing to leave.
"We came here specifically to solve this matter. Even if you don't consider yourself, what about Abigail? She is very worried about you. Tell us the situation, maybe we can solve the problem here.
"Abigail. "Hearing Da Vinci mention Abigail, Lavinia immediately stopped and turned around again.
"The Witley family is an alchemy family. They have only one purpose for generations, that is to summon the Outer Gods." Lavinia then told what she knew.
"The six knots and six doors actually refer to the altar, as well as all the spaces above, below, left, right, front and back. The Outer Gods are the great gods of doors and keys, and they are the ones who give birth to all things and bring all things back to one."
"I, f**k." After hearing what Lavinia said, Shen Fei was completely speechless. He never thought that this singularity would be related to the Outer Gods.
Da Vinci also frowned. Obviously, she also thought that things would turn out like this. She knew what kind of existence the Outer Gods were.
"First it was human evil, and now it's the Outer Gods. Does the Demon Pillar need to play so big?" Shen Fei, who was very confident, felt unconfident for the first time at this time. There was no way, because the matter involved the Outer Gods.
If the opponent is the Demonic God Pillar, if the human being is evil, the most important thing is to try his best to see who is stronger. But if the matter involves an external god, it cannot be solved by strength.
However, Shen Fei soon calmed down because he thought about the two inhibitory powers. If an alien god really appeared, it would not be his turn to take the lead. Although the alien god is powerful, the two inhibitory powers are not simple. .
"How dare you summon an alien god? This guy is really tough." After calming down, Shen Fei looked at Lavinia and couldn't help but admire their family's ability to seek death. For the alien gods, he was afraid of avoiding them, but he still There are people who dare to take the initiative to summon them. I really don’t want to admire them.
"As I said, this is not something you can solve."
This time Da Vinci didn't stop her from leaving. The matter involved the Outer God, and many previous things had to be sorted out again.
"What, Matthew is missing?" But what the two of them didn't expect was that when they returned to Carter's house, they met Ritsuka who ran over in a hurry. She brought another piece of bad information: Matthew was missing.
"What's going on?" Da Vinci asked immediately.
"Hopkins wanted to go to the city to ask for help, and Matthew followed him."
Ritsuka immediately gave an overview of the situation. It turned out that due to the frequent appearance of monsters and the heavy casualties of villagers and soldiers, Hopkins decided to go to the city to ask for reinforcements. Carter then entered the city with his letter, and Ma Xiu thought that he might be able to leave Salem, so he asked to go with him, and Carter agreed.
Before arriving in Salem, they went to the border of the village to confirm that there was no way to leave Salem, so Matthew wanted to try if he could leave if he acted with local people.
To be sure, Kato Danzo followed her at a distance, but it turned out that Kato Danzo lost track of the carriage that Matthew and Carter were riding in, and the carriage disappeared from her sight.
"Is that so? Take us to the place where they disappeared." Hearing that Mash disappeared with Carter, Da Vinci was worried, but he didn't show it on his face, but comforted Ritsuka. After that, the group went to the place where the carriage disappeared.
"It's strange. There were car marks here, but they disappeared after that." After the group arrived at the scene, they immediately started investigating. Although they found some clues, they did not find Matthew.
"Is this here?" Then the group of people found two corpses in the forest, as well as a strange wooden sign, a hexagonal wooden sign, which was very similar to the first thing on Abigail's body.
"It's a male and a female. With this, maybe they are. Strange, isn't it said that they were given to Shalu by the aboriginal people?" By analyzing the bones and the items on one side, Da Vinci had a clue about the two bones. guess.
"Senior, my dear Da Vinci." After a group of people buried the two bones, when they were about to continue looking for Mashu, Mashu ran over on his own. Seeing Mashu appear, Ritsuka rushed over immediately. .
"What's going on?" Da Vinci said after waiting for Mashu and Ritsuka to finish speaking.
"Someone saved me." As Matthew said, he led a group of people towards the depths of the forest, and then found a tent in front of them.
"Queen of Sheba, Cerce." Inside the tent, a group of people saw two servants. After hearing that one of them was the Queen of Sheba, Da Vinci couldn't help but focus on her.
The Queen of Sheba, but one legend believes that the Chaldean Sheba Observation Lens System was named after her, and more importantly, she was the wife of King Solomon.
"Da Vinci, I have long admired you, thank you for taking care of me." The Queen of Sheba immediately said with a smile.
"You know." Da Vinci looked at the Queen of Sheba in surprise, and then nodded immediately. The Queen of Sheba also has the power to peer into the future. Naturally, she knew that Roman was in Chaldea. Shen Fei also understood, but Mashu and Ritsuka looked confused because they didn't know Roman's true identity.
Then the two sides immediately exchanged information. It turned out that the Queen of Sheba was the servant summoned by the singularity, and only Garce was the servant summoned by the Queen of Sheba to cooperate with her actions. The two of them had a relationship at this singularity. A common identity, that is Tituba.
"Since you are Tituba, why does her body still appear?" Leonardo immediately asked after knowing that they were Tituba.
"I don't know, I was given this identity when I was summoned." The Queen of Sheba said and told everyone a very important piece of information, that is, time in Salem passes very quickly compared to the outside world, but Under normal circumstances, you can't feel it here. She only discovered it after establishing a stronghold in this forest and setting up a barrier.
"Outer God? I didn't expect to encounter such a situation. Sure enough, it was the right choice not to take action before." After hearing Da Vinci talk about the Outer God, the Queen of Sheba nodded slightly. She had always felt that this There was something wrong with the singularity, but I didn’t know what it was exactly, and now I finally understand.
"If I'm not wrong, the key to this singularity is." Sheba then told the information she and Cerce had investigated at this singularity, and made a corresponding plan.
"Damn it, are there any reinforcements? If this continues, we're all going to die here." The next day after returning to Carter's house from the Queen of Sheba, the monster appeared again, and the bodies of the residents who had been killed before also appeared again.
The group fought hard until they heard the sound of horse hooves in the distance, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, because reinforcements had arrived, and they were the famous cavalry in the city.
"It's all because of those sailors, they brought disaster." After the reinforcements arrived, the monster was quickly repelled, and then these residents set their sights on the sailors who had come to support them and fight with them before. Then the sailors were tried and sentenced to hanging.
Because the sailors were all outsiders, naturally there was no human body to talk to them. Mashu and Lixiang went out, but no one paid attention to them.
"Abigail is a witch, just like Lavilia." Another day passed, and this time the target became Abigail.
The other Abigails did not defend themselves, and a very strange smell emanated from their bodies. Fortunately, the smell disappeared quickly and did not cause much harm to the residents around them, but it also proved that Abigail was really a witch.
After that, Abigail was detained and prepared for trial the next day.
"Catch her, I will inherit the will of Lord Hopkins and judge all witches."
The next day, everyone did not wait for Hopkins' trial because he died. He wanted to sacrifice Abigail alive in the forest, and was killed by Lavinia. Then she and Abigail were caught, and the trial continued, but this time the presiding judge was Salem's original luminary, John Hawthorne.
Unexpectedly, Carter, Abigail's uncle, also came forward to testify that Abigail was a witch.
"Humph, since it's a trial, then show your true colors." Just when Abigail was sad because of her uncle's words, Lavinia stood up and sprinkled a strange powder around. The situation in the trial court changed. To be precise, all the people here changed and turned into monsters and ghouls, but they didn't feel anything about it.
Carter turned into a crow-headed person. He was the Demon Pillar Raum, the last Demon Pillar to escape from the Temple of Time.
"Let's start, let this barrier called the trial drama come to an end." Because it is a barrier, it can only be carried out as a trial.
"You deserve to die." Seeing that his disguise was lifted, the Demon Pillar Raum was so angry that he hit Lavinia away.
"Lavinia." Seeing Lavinia being knocked away, Abigail was angry, and a strange and weird aura emanated from her body. A tentacle appeared behind her and knocked Raum to the ground. Then Abigail stepped on it and crushed its crow head. Poor Raum was easily solved before he could show his true body.
"Be careful, something has descended on her. We must stop her and use a barrier."
Although it was a happy thing that the Demon Pillar was solved, the aura emanating from Abigail was more disturbing than the Demon Pillar. This was the arrival of the Outer God, and Abigail was the descender.
"We use the barrier to suppress her, and quickly smash the mark on her forehead." At this time, a keyhole mark appeared on Abigail's forehead. It was the mark of the Silver Key and also the mark of the One who Returns All Things to One.
