When a semi-artifact that threatens the safety of faith falls into the hands of the Grand Inquisition, do you think they will share it with players to help them solve the trial, even if it's just for a few hours?
The answer is obvious.
Won't!
But after getting the dagger, Moqius did not put it away immediately, but showed it to the fearless onlookers as if he was showing it off.
When Fang Jue saw this scene, his eyes tightened.
It's not like showing off the trophy.
An Inquisitor from the Grand Inquisition has no need to be so ostentatious.
In this case, there is only one reason why he did this:
He is fishing!
Use the murder weapon to catch the murderer!
Mo Qiusi obviously wanted to see who in the crowd was interested in this thing.
Even if we can't catch the murderer, it would be good to catch a few small fish like Cheng Shi.
Unfortunately, his purpose was perhaps too obvious, and no one dared to offend the majesty of the Grand Inquisition and take action at this moment.
Du Xiguang obviously understood this scene. They both lowered their heads slightly to avoid Mo Qiusi's sight.
After waiting for a while and seeing that there were no new twists and turns, Mo Qiusi said with some disappointment:
"A relic of a god tainted with the divine nature of [defilement] and [death]. This is the source of the disaster!
That foul blasphemer used this divine relic to cause slaughter and panic.
Although we didn't catch the mouse today, there is no need to panic.
Because he no longer had the capital to blaspheme the God of Prosperity.
Please rest assured that under the watchful eyes of the Grand Inquisition, no sinner will be able to escape punishment.
It just might take a little time.”
After saying this, he put "When Fear Comes" in his arms and left the hotel without any delay.
Watching Mo Qiusi taking away the judges and lawyers, Cheng Shi sighed silently.
At this moment, the players have lost the best opportunity to snatch the dagger.
This also means that the clues are once again lost to them.
And this time is different from the past, there is almost no possibility of turning back.
"The crazy-growing Light of Life will be unblocked from now on, but entry and exit to Yongzhan Town is still not allowed. I hope everyone can stay in the town for a while to witness the judgment of [Order] and the execution of the sinners!"
The masters of the town's autonomous alliance announced the lifting of the lockdown order, but Cheng Shi didn't think it would help their current situation at all.
This unblocking order is more like a heavy shackle, locking the players in the inn.
Not surprisingly, the Grand Inquisition was watching closely to see which traveler would leave the inn first.
For someone with something to hide, this inn that has received excessive attention from Moqius is obviously not a good hiding place.
"He" may be eager to find another place to hide.
And this is exactly what Mo Qiusi was planning!
To retreat in order to advance, from light to darkness.
From now on, no one will know where Moqius is or where he is looking.
The real culprit behind the scenes, having lost his greatest support, can only live in fear, trying every possible way to clear himself of suspicion.
But any abnormal behavior may be discovered by the shrewd judges, and then imprisoned in death row by the laws of the Grand Inquisition!
The situation was sliding uncontrollably into the abyss, with no glimmer of hope in sight.
After everyone left, Cheng Shi endured the discomfort and gave himself two healing spells, then dragged his paralyzed body towards Fang Jue.
Even though the believers of Order did not want to continue cooperating with him, he still needed to figure out what happened downstairs.
This time, Fang Jue did not refuse Cheng Shi’s question. Perhaps he felt the urgency of the trial. He truthfully told Cheng Shi everything about the “hunt” of the “bard”.
"That is not a 'person', but a puppet, a puppet made of flesh and blood, without any thoughts or consciousness."
puppet?
Cheng Shi was stunned and suddenly thought of the desire puppet he encountered in the previous trial.
This kind of thing seems to be exactly what the followers of [Foulness] are good at.
Could it be that the murderer is really the players’ “target”?
Du Xiguang also added:
"Because it's a puppet, no memories can be read."
As soon as he finished speaking, Cheng Shi frowned.
He was not disappointed again because he had no clues.
But it was Du Xiguang who lied!
This sentence is very short, and there is only one possible lie: he read the puppet's memory.
But I chose to hide it.
Why?
Cheng Shi looked at Fang Jue calmly, but found that this believer of "Order" did not seem to have any doubts about Du Xiguang's words.
Fang Jue didn't know that Du Xiguang lied, and he was kept in the dark.
The situation suddenly became complicated again.
It's interesting. The situation has become so bad, why are some people unwilling to share the only clue?
Could it be that...
He received the command from [Memory] and discovered his identity?
Something is wrong.
Even so, he could share the clues with Fang Jue. The believers of [Order] were the most reliable players, and this had never changed.
Moreover, more people mean more brains, and collective wisdom is always better than one person’s own thinking.
So why did he hide it and what did he hide?
Cheng Shi glanced at Du Xiguang, but Du Xiguang didn't notice that he was frowning and thinking.
Obviously, he and Cheng Shi definitely didn't think the same thing.
But it’s better this way. At least we have some clues. If we keep an eye on Du Xiguang, there may still be a glimmer of hope.
Cheng Shi nodded, thanked him, turned and left.
