Soul echo

Chapter 230 Chasing and Killing

The high-ranking troops guarding the 'Military City' all died in the banquet hall, so when Purcell stood up and called the low-level officers to go to the banquet hall to confirm the matter, the officers expressed their respect for Purcell. I have a strong sense of distrust.

They even detained Purcell, and then separated some people to go to the banquet hall to confirm the situation.

When they arrived at the banquet hall, the pastor of Dimu Church also came here at the invitation of Zhong Ye.

Mother Earth is the most widely believed god among the primitive gods. She has the priesthood of "harvest". If there are no natural or man-made disasters, farmers who believe in her can often harvest enough from their land to feed a family of eight. A year's worth of food.

From the perspective of productivity alone, the productivity of Dan's world is enough to support a larger population, but unfortunately, the problem in this world lies in 'distribution'.

'Military City' is an important military town for the production of guns. The Gaul royal family does not want the power of theocracy to settle in, but they can't stand the expectations of the peasants. Moreover, if they want to support this town, it is necessary for the Church of the Earth Mother to settle in.

Therefore, the Earth Mother Church was able to settle in the 'Military City'.

But it is said to be "settlement", in fact, the Dimu Church in "Juncheng" has only one pastor, who can only bless the farmers in "Juncheng" with harvest blessings, and can't do other things.

Of course, at such a time, the pastor could also screen out cultists for Zhong Ye and the others.

"[Detect Evil]!"

Just as several officers led the team into the banquet hall, gentle light fell from the sky and fell on them.

Their faces changed, and they all raised their weapons.

Then, they didn't feel anything was happening.

Several officers and soldiers looked at each other and saw a faint gray light emitting from each other's body. Other than that, nothing happened.

Purcell, who was kidnapped by them, breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "Look, I didn't lie to you, this town has been corrupted, first the nobles, and then you - if Your Excellency Zhong Ye didn't come, you would too Corrupted!"

The soldiers who walked into the banquet hall stared wide-eyed, they were frightened by the bloody scene in the hall.

The mutations visible to the naked eye on the corpses frightened them into standing still, making it difficult to move.

"What is this...?" an officer said with difficulty.

"It's the evil god!"

Everyone looked around and saw a tall and burly man with his arms folded like a mountain.

Zhong Ye glanced over the corpses on the ground, and then looked at the soldiers, "These are cultists who believe in evil gods. Their bodies have been distorted under the influence of the power of evil gods, and now they are just revealing their true colors."

The soldiers looked at each other, and several officers touched their necks, feeling a little cold there.

Seeing the horror of those corpses, they felt a little creepy.

According to Purcell, most of the nobles in this town have been corrupted. According to the order, if nothing goes wrong, they will be next.

Fortunately, that strong man named 'Zhong Ye' came here and happened to witness the party hosted by Graham. If not, not only Purcell, but even them would have been corrupted.

If they are corrupted, they will face the fate of death next!

——Looking at the death conditions of these corpses, it is clear that the result of becoming a cultist is 'death', and it will be a miserable death.

The officer who spoke before took a deep breath, lowered his eyebrows, and asked in a low voice: "Your Excellency, what do you want us to do?"

Purcell also said before that it was Zhong Ye who asked him to summon them.

"First of all, to identify your identities, and secondly, I need you and me to kill the remaining cultists!"

Several officers looked surprised and looked at each other, "Is there any left?"

Zhong Ye nodded, "Not all the nobles gathered in this hall, the remaining nobles may also be cultists, so they need the help of Pastor Candida and your strength."

"So, when is it?"

Hearing this, Zhong Ye was silent for a moment, "Now!"

The soldiers were completely unprepared for this.

Originally, they were only here to investigate the real situation, but they never expected to hunt down the cultists...

But Zhong Ye didn't give them time to think at all. After speaking, he walked towards the door of the banquet hall.

Lilian and Pastor Candida followed behind him, and Purcell also broke free from control and followed Zhong Ye's footsteps, leaving only a group of soldiers standing in the center of the Shura field.

The soldiers turned their eyes to their commander, and several officers looked at each other, discussed in a low voice, and then made up their minds.

"Follow!"

Cultists are a huge threat to this town, and their families all live in this town. If something really happens, they don't know whether their families will be able to escape.

For this reason, they must ensure that all evils are eliminated!

The mighty team set off from the army garrison, and under the leadership of Zhong Ye, they headed towards the northeast of the town.

Their actions made a lot of noise, and even this violent storm couldn't completely cover it up.

The sleeping town was awakened by these movements, and the townspeople felt uneasy for some reason when they heard the vibrations from the streets.

Some of them came to the window, quietly opened a gap, and peeked at the street.

Then, they were shocked to see an army set off from the garrison and rush towards the noble residence.

In this kind of blizzard day, no one would act outside at all, even in the noble residential area that was patrolled day and night, the patrol was canceled at this time.

Without any guards, only the protection of an iron fence door could not stop Zhong Ye's intrusion at all.

Zhong Ye, who led the team, kicked open the iron gate and walked into the noble residence first.

"Purcell, do you remember anyone else who wasn't in that hall?"

Zhong Ye's sudden question made Purcell slightly taken aback.

He subconsciously thought about it, but soon, he couldn't shake his head, "There are too many people in the hall, I didn't remember it at all."

"Then we can only knock on the doors one by one..."

Zhong Ye looked up at the shadows behind Daxue and muttered to himself.

Under the devastation of the blizzard, the exposed body parts of the soldiers were red with cold.

But Zhong Ye didn't even look at them, and led the team straight into a mansion.

Pastor Candida frowned slightly as he watched Zhong Ye's actions, but he acted in a hurry. There are still unknown cultists lurking in the town, so Zhong Ye's actions are understandable.

The pastor followed Zhong Ye into the mansion, and their violent behavior naturally attracted the attention of the mansion servants. Those servants walked out of the room, and the housekeeper who was awakened shouted loudly before seeing the intruder. : "Do you know what this place is? How dare you make such a disrespectful—"

He saw more and more people stepping through the gate, and those people were still holding muskets, and the sound stopped abruptly.

"[Detect Evil]!"

Priest Candida swayed the light, and the power of divine magic fell on the servants.

Except for the housekeeper, everyone else emitted gray light.

And the butler only flashed a faint red light, to the extent that Pastor Candida frowned slightly.

I have done some evil things, but the crime is not worthy of death...

At this moment, a cold light flew out from Zhong Ye's waist and inserted into the butler's throat.

The butler stared at him, clutching his neck that was gushing blood in pain, stared at Zhong Ye and his party in disbelief, and fell limp to the ground.

"Your Excellency Zhong Ye, what are you doing?" Pastor Candida exclaimed.

Zhong Ye walked over and retracted the throwing knife from the butler's throat. Without even looking at the trembling servants who were already slumped on the ground, he turned to Pastor Candida and said seriously: "Ms. Candida, he is this The closest person to a nobleman other than his relatives—even for that nobleman, relatives may not be as close as him—I don’t think he didn’t become a cultist, at most, the degree of evil is not that high!”

Pastor Candida's lips moved, not knowing what to say.

"Let's go! Next place!"

Zhong Ye didn't give her time to think, so he said something coldly, then turned around and walked towards the gate of the mansion, heading to the next house.

Looking at his back, Pastor Candida suddenly felt a little worried.

Tonight... there may be many unnecessary deaths...
