A village outside the town of Merlin.
'Red Hat' pulled the rapier out of an enemy's body, bringing out a burst of rich blood.
Among this group of people wearing lime-white robes, there are only four Sequence 6s, and the rest are at most Sequence 5s.
Luo Xier was treating the injured 'Black Bull' in the back, while the 'Makeup Artist' was leaning weakly against a tree trunk, his body still trembling slightly, as if he had not yet escaped from the shadow of death.
Sometimes the near-death experience does not make people less afraid of death, but makes people more afraid of death, because that is the end of everything, you will never wake up, and you will never see this beautiful world again.
Red Hat walked back, throwing the weak enemy he was holding aside. With a flick of his right hand, several flashes of red light flashed, and blood splattered on the enemy's body. He then groaned in pain on the ground. Unfortunately, the nerves in his hands and feet were damaged, and he couldn't struggle anymore.
"How's the situation?" He looked at Luo Xier who was treating Hei Niu, and his expression and tone were much softer than before.
"Subsequent treatment must be continued so that there will be no sequelae."
Loran Hill wiped the sweat from his forehead and stood up.
"I'm really sorry to trouble you this time." He paused for a few seconds, as if thinking about how to thank the girl.
"Is there anything you want?" Contrary to his appearance, this handsome man doesn't seem to be very good at coaxing girls.
"Giggle, hiss—" The 'makeup artist' leaning against the side laughed a few times, and then the wound that had just healed was affected, and he cried out in pain.
"Oh."
Red Hat looked at the injured woman and snorted, expressing his disdain for her foolish behavior, but he was too lazy to provoke her at this time.
He walked back to the hillside and checked the bodies one by one, looking for any valuable clues or things.
'Black Bull' stood up from the ground, stretched his legs and took a few steps, seeming a little unbelievable, and then looked at his hands and arms.
"Is the 'Puppet Master' a candidate for the Saint of Aquarius? She's surprisingly proficient in healing abilities." The reason she didn't say Saint was because the girl was young and didn't yet have the strength of a Sequence 7.
"Well, I did stay in Aquarius Palace for a while, but I'm not a candidate for the Saint..."
Although what she said was indeed the truth, the two people next to her thought that the girl was just being modest. With the strength of only Angel Sequence 5, she could have such extraordinary healing abilities, which was not something that ordinary people could do. Maybe this girl was the next successor of Aquarius Palace and the designated candidate for the Wand Priest.
Considering that the current ruler of Aquarius, Bines, is a strong contender for the Pope, perhaps this girl will become a big figure in the church in the future.
Although the church does not value blood inheritance like secular countries, their relationship between master and apprentice, senior and junior is also very strong. It is normal for Bines, who was born in Aquarius, to gain support from members of the palace's subordinate institutions.
After resting for a moment, Luo Lanxier stood up and turned around to look. She saw the Gothic doll sitting on the branch and stretched out her arms. Yi Xue jumped down from the branch and stood in Luo Lanxier's palm, then let the girl hold her in her arms again.
Looking at this exquisite doll with ice-blue hair, the 'makeup artist' asked with a slight gasp.
"So you two are from two different sequences."
"Yeah." The girl nodded. There was no point in hiding it anymore.
"I see. But there's no need to explain. The members of the Judgment Department all have their own secrets. There's no need to tell everything. Ahem." The 'makeup artist' seemed to have some internal wounds and coughed a few more times.
Loran Hill looked at the stubborn woman, shook his head slightly, then walked closer and treated her again to help her recover faster.
After 'Black Bull' found a rope and tied up the only living enemy, he sat aside to rest, and then 'Red Hat' walked back from the side.
He looked at the only survivor, then turned his gaze to Loran Hill.
"I'm sorry, but I think I'll have to trouble you a bit more to interrogate the souls of those who recently died. After a while, I'm afraid their soul fragments will dissipate."
Although he knew that the power of the Undead Sequence used by the girl came from the doll, he still said this to Luo Xier, because the order cannot be messed up, after all, the doll was brought by the girl.
"Yes, I understand."
Although disturbing the peace of the deceased was unpleasant, she couldn't care less about it now, as this was an emergency. She was also curious about where these people came from and how they could possess the same Aijaka secret technique as Osuna.
Just like she had asked Jinna before, she asked Yixue to summon the souls of the deceased again.
Not everyone can become a ghost after death. It requires a certain amount of luck. Most of the time, the soul will just be broken and slowly dissipate in the world.
After the soul fragments of these people gathered together, they were still a little confused, but they looked at Luo Xier with great confusion and shock.
[The Messenger of God... one who transcends the mortal world...]
Some strange names came out of their mouths, but when asked to explain, they couldn't tell the specific meaning. It seemed that they were very complicated words, and their confused thoughts were now difficult to sort out.
Finally, Loran Hill began to ask them how they obtained this secret technique, what organization Di belonged to, etc.
After a long time, the soul fragments dissipated.
"Did you find anything?" The voice of 'Red Hat' sounded from behind.
"The reason they were able to rise so suddenly was because they joined a certain organization, and then the upper echelons of the organization taught them this secret technique."
"And... the most important point is that they believe they are the true followers of the gods, while the angels revered by the church today are hypocritical betrayers."
After hesitating for a few seconds, Loran Hill decided to tell her what she had just learned. This situation was beyond her ability to understand and resolve.
"Every year, people say this. All kinds of cults try to put on a veneer of justice and brainwash their followers into believing that they are the orthodox ones." 'Red Hat' shrugged it off.
"Don't be fooled by this trick, 'Puppet Master'. Don't easily believe every word of the enemy. Perhaps he himself is not even aware that he is deceiving and doing evil."
"Real bad people think they are doing good and the right thing. They have no psychological burden and feel righteous. This is what we need to be most vigilant about."
"You're so kindhearted, it might be hard to believe, but that's just how the world is." Red Hat was worried that the new member might feel pity for the enemies and suffer losses in future operations, so he had to warn him.
"Okay, okay, Red Hat, just forget it. Talking like that is so disrespectful. I believe the Puppet Master is a kind and intelligent child with his own ideas. He won't be easily fooled."
After resting for a while, the makeup artist slowly walked over. She put her arms around Loran Hill and whispered in his ear.
"Thanks."
