Mistbound Chronicles: Lumian's Legacy Novel Chapter 76

"Now?" Lumian was startled.

Although he himself was very anxious about exploring the underground of the church, he was not so anxious!

As soon as his thoughts changed, he asked:

"Can't you wait until night?

At that time, in the dead of night, there were only two or three servants left in the church. Shouldn't you just let yourself and other extraordinary people sneak in easily?

Ryan said gently but forcefully:

"Now is the best time.

"Think about it. We can imagine that there is no one in the church at night and there is no protection. Wouldn't the parish priest and others not think of it?

"I suspect that they will send strong men in the team to take turns guarding, or set up a secret enough trap to set off an alarm if it is triggered.

"Now, it's close to noon, and all the villagers have gone home. No one will go to the church to pray at this time. Plus it's daytime, the trap will not be opened to avoid accidentally triggering it. The two priests and the servants are all In the church, it is easy for people to lose their vigilance, which means that the strong ones in the team will feel at ease eating at home, and we only have to face the parish priest, the duplicate priest and three servants."

Lumian nodded thoughtfully and helped Ryan say the next words: "Before April 3, the priest was still an ordinary person and had not gained extraordinary power."

Today is April 1st.

"In addition, although the priest of the dungeon has abnormalities, he is obviously not a core member of the priest's team. The same is true for the three handymen." Liya added with a smile, "We four extraordinarys can't deal with five people silently. An ordinary person?"

Lumian thought for a moment and said:

"but

Will it keep us from waiting until Twelfth Night? "

This is tantamount to triggering an anomaly on the priest's side, and "history" must change accordingly.

"You yourself have said that compared to us, the parish priest wants to endure it until Lent and welcome the arrival of Twelfth Night. As long as we don't kill him, when he wakes up and finds that someone has entered the basement, he will also He will only pretend not to notice anything and speed up his progress in obtaining extraordinary power." Liya said with a smile, "When the 'gift' is successfully prayed for, he may lead people to hunt us down. But Kordu Village is not a small one. , our strength is not weak either. If we hide and delay, we can still wait for Lent."

Lumian recognized this reason:

"Okay, now."

He then reminded: "But at this point, Aurore's eyes have not fully recovered, so I'm afraid she can't help us."

Before going to the castle to visit Mrs. Pualis, Lumian went back home, communicated with Aurore for a while, and confirmed her condition. Her eyes might not become normal until the evening.

"It doesn't matter. Isn't it Mrs. Pualis who has the backing?" Liya said half-jokingly, the bell above her head ringing slightly.

Lumian no longer had any objections, but cautiously made a suggestion:

"Before going to the church, we walked around the village to make sure that dangerous guys like the shepherd Pierre Berry were in our home."

To avoid any surprises, as soon as you enter the basement, you will meet Pierre and other people who have received the "gift".

Ryan nodded in approval and agreed.

After they exchanged the details, Valentine glanced at Lumian and asked with an indifferent expression:

"Does it need to be purified?"

Liya hurriedly explained to her companion: "You entered the castle and came into contact with Mrs. Pualis, and you may have been contaminated to a certain extent."

"No, I believe Mrs. Pualis won't do that this time. It doesn't make any sense." Lumian was very sure.

He was not sure. He didn't dare to let Valentine purify him again. Compared with yesterday, he was already a "dancer". The evil breath came from the seal to the surface of his body. He would probably appear immediately as soon as he was purified by the holy water. Big problem.

According to Aurore's analysis, his whole person now belongs to the type that needs to be purified.

Seeing Lumian, he didn't think it was okay. Valentine, who was just temporarily distracted, naturally wouldn't say anything.

Next, while they were wandering around Kordu Village, Lumian returned home and told his sister what he and others had done.

Aurore was a little annoyed that she couldn't participate and couldn't provide her own power. She could only recommend herself to the edge of the village and take on the responsibility of triggering the cycle whenever something went wrong.

There is no visual requirement for this, as long as you can see the road clearly.

After agreeing to restart the cycle if no one came to her by 12:30, Lumian said goodbye to Aurore and met with Liya and others.

At this time, the three official Beyonders have confirmed the whereabouts of the core members of the parish priest group such as Good Shepherd Pierre Berry.

After a half-circle, they followed a path to the side of the church, which was the door they used when they broke through the door the priest and Mrs. Poialis used when they were having an affair in the last cycle.

Lumian was about to volunteer and use the small piece of wire he carried to open the door that was rarely opened. Liya had already walked over, fiddled with the keyhole twice, and pushed open the dark brown wooden door.

Seeing Lumian looking at her in shock, she smiled and said:

"This is an essential investigative technique."

Don't call picking the lock so noble... The reason why Lumian didn't express his inner murmur was because Liya had already taken two steps into the church.

The little silver bells on her veil and boots were motionless and made no sound.

Lumian tried to interpret:

"It's safe to enter the church, isn't it dangerous?"

Liya looked back at him and said:

"Please add the prefix 'merely just entering the church to deal with the people inside'."

Does this mean that the danger in the basement is still unknown? Lumian probably understood what Liya meant and had a certain understanding of divination. However, even if he had improved his spirituality due to being a "dancer", he still had no divination ability.

At this time, Ryan passed him and walked towards the church with Liya.

After a few steps, a servant came from the side.

In the blink of an eye, Ryan rushed to the side of the servant, raised his right hand, and struck the man behind the ear.

The servant fainted without even making a sound. Ryan caught him and dragged him to the nearest room.

Liya rushed over, took out a glass bottle filled with colorless liquid from somewhere, unscrewed the cap, and gave the servant a sip.

"What is this?" Lumian asked curiously.

Liya kept her original smile and said:

"sedative."

Well prepared... Lumian sighed secretly.

In this way, they controlled the three servants without alerting the priest at all.

Then, Liya followed the shadow on the edge and carefully sneaked towards the room where the priest rested.

She turned the handle silently and pushed the wooden door open a crack. She saw the most powerful man in Kordu Village wearing a white robe with gold thread, lying on a simple wooden bed, breathing slowly and calmly. long.

Near the door, on the table were lunch plates and silver knives and forks.

Liya looked at it twice, then jumped in like a cat, used the church as a knife, and slapped the priest behind the ear.

Then, she poured most of the remaining sedative into Guillaume Benet's mouth.

"Is this done?" Lumian stuck his head out next to Liya.

Isn't this too easy?

"Otherwise? What else do you want from an ordinary person?" Liya asked in a funny tone.

Lumian said "hmm", took the initiative and started to lift the priest's robe.

what are you doing? "Liya was surprised and confused, but her smile did not diminish.

Lumian replied without turning his head:

"Check him out."

He wanted to see if the current priest had the black thorn symbol on his chest.

Soon, the upper body of the parish priest Guillaume Benet was exposed, with nothing except the obvious black hair.

There is no black thorn symbol, nor is there a black mark that represents a special contract.

Lumian nodded slightly and said to himself:

"It seems that the symbol is obtained only after receiving the 'gift', or is it there now, but it can only be inspired by meditation?

"Where did mine come from, on Twelfth Night?"

Thinking that the parish priest Guillaume Benet might not have the black thorn symbol at present, Lumian couldn't help but have some evil thoughts:

"Would killing him now not trigger the cycle?

"What kind of changes will it bring if we nip this guy in the cradle in advance?"

Considering the importance of the priest in the subsequent events, Lumian, who still wanted to wait for Twelfth Night, finally defeated himself.

After leaving the priest's room, Ryan said to him and Liya: "The dungeon priest can't be found.

"Ah?" Lumian was startled at first, and then understood what he meant, "Maybe he went home. He is not allowed to live in the church, and no one brings him food."

"This devil's servant is so overbearing." Valentine glanced at the priest in the room and cursed.

The four of them walked in the opposite direction to the altar without further delay.

The corner there is the stairway. The stone steps are very narrow, can only accommodate one person, and are high and steep.

It spirals upward to the top of the church and downward to the ground floor.

Liya was still in front. After she walked to the bottom of a few stairs, the four small silver bells on her veil and boots rang at the same time.

Ding-ding-dang-dang, the sound is not loud and only echoes in a small range, sometimes urgent and sometimes soothing.

"What does this mean?" Lumian could not interpret it based on his previous experience.

Liya turned sideways and smiled:

It means there is a certain degree of danger, but I cannot divine the extent of the danger. "

"You can get divination even if you go to the castle..." Lumian said to himself in astonishment, "Doesn't this mean that the underground is more dangerous?"

"Not necessarily, maybe there is just something that caused a strong interference." Liya comforted him, "Didn't Mrs. Pualis not be there at the castle?"

When they arrived here, faced with such a small incident, they could no longer shrink back, so they entered the stairs one by one and went down layer by layer.

Not long after, the four of them saw the old brown wooden door in the basement.

Liya raised her hand and pinched her eyebrows, turned on "Spirit Vision", and then came to the wooden door.

Although Lumian has not yet mastered the simple steps to activate "Spiritual Sight", with the spiritual strengthening of "Dancer", it didn't take long for him to open "Spiritual Sight", and he saw that everyone was red and healthy.

When her companions were ready, Liya opened the basement door.

Lumian's nose twitched at the squeaking sound, and he smelled a familiar smell, elegant and sweet.

He instantly had an idea and hurriedly told Ryan and others:

"Smells of gray amber."

This is the material used to worship the hidden existence named by fate!
