Soul echo

Chapter 326 Staggered

The village is less than ten kilometers away from the city of Bourges. For Zhong Ye, it only takes a few minutes for him to return to Bourges.

It was just that it was getting late at that time, considering that the leaders of several churches had been working hard on the 'vampire' and 'cultists' for a long time, so he didn't take the little boy back to disturb their rest.

So, early the next morning, Zhong Ye returned to Bourges with a tightly wrapped backpack on his back.

He didn't go to the Adventurer's House, but went directly to several churches.

Because of the previous incident, several church clerics and apologists knew Zhong Ye, and when they saw him coming here, they planned to let him go.

However, Zhong Ye stood in front of the church door of the Commercial Church and did not go in.

"I brought back a vampire."

His words stunned the two guards standing in front of the door.

Zhong Ye said solemnly: "He is a vampire who can communicate and is willing to communicate with us. I hope that the bishop can give him a privilege to enter the church."

Hearing this, the guard was even more surprised.

They have heard of vampires who are willing to "live in harmony" with humans, but those vampires often attack the humans around them after they can't resist the temptation of "delicious" human blood. As time passes, no one believes in vampires anymore.

——They were surprised that Zhong Ye made a request to 'let the vampires enter the church'.

But this matter is not something they can decide, so the two guards discussed it, and one guard walked into the church and went to inform the bishop—only the bishop has the right to make decisions on such matters.

Unexpectedly, a few minutes later, the bishop of the Commercial Church walked out of the church.

"Any clues?"

The bishop's eyes were bloodshot, and his whole body revealed a kind of exhaustion.

Zhong Ye raised his eyebrows, he left for less than a day, what happened during this period?
Noticing the change in Zhong Ye's expression, the bishop rubbed his eyes and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's just that I didn't sleep last night... But then again, the vampire you brought can take us to that vampire clan the residence?"

"About this question, you can ask him yourself." Zhong Ye pointed to the huge backpack on his back.

He glanced at the huge backpack behind Zhong Ye in surprise, did he bring that vampire back?But this backpack looks quite big, but it can't actually hold an adult...

Thinking in this way, the bishop took out the holy emblem, corrected his expression, and eliminated distracting thoughts.

"I, Enzo Messi, in the name of the Bishop of the Commercial Church of Bourges, pardon your sins."

A ray of light suddenly appeared from the holy emblem and shot at the backpack behind Zhong Ye.

The bishop exhaled and nodded to Zhong Ye, "Bring him in, he can enter the church now."

Vampires cannot be exposed to sunlight, so even after entering the church, they need to find a room that is completely closed and not exposed to sunlight.

Zhong Ye followed the bishop into the church, and then the bishop ordered the apprentices to tidy up a room, draw all the curtains, and close the windows, lest a sudden gust of wind push the windows open and blow the curtains up.

Now there is still a lot of information to be obtained from that vampire, they must be careful.

Perhaps because of the more serious tone and words used by the bishop, the apprentices quickly tidied up a room.

While the clergy apprentice was tidying up the room, Zhong Ye went back to the Adventurer's House, called Lily and Lilian over, and at the same time, brought the suitcase.

To deal with the vampire clan, he needs to use the player's power. As the princess of the Kingdom of Gaul, Lily also has the right to know about this.

At the same time, the bishop of the commercial church also called the heads of other churches.

Logically speaking, they should also inform the lord, so that the lord's people can also participate in this matter.

However, although there was no evidence, they also suspected that the lord had dealings with vampires or cultists, so everyone tacitly did not let anyone inform the lord.

The leaders of several churches in Bourges gathered in a closed room, watching Zhong Ye unbutton his backpack.

A pale-skinned little boy stood out from the backpack, opened his eyes, and there were bright lights in his eyes.

"Cyrillic!"

The moment he saw the little boy, a person in charge of the church exclaimed, "Why are you?"

Zhong Ye looked over in doubt, "You know him?"

The bishop of the Commercial Church sighed and explained on his behalf: "It's better to say that everyone here knows each other—His Excellency Zhong Ye, I may not have told you that his father is a painter and a devout follower of Ms. Charming. "

The one who screamed just now is the priest of the Church of Art and Beauty in Bourges.

It is precisely because the victim of the Bourges vampire incident is a devout believer in the Church of Art and Beauty that the clergy in Bourges noticed this incident at the first time and began to investigate.

"I see, you are a newborn vampire..."

Several other church leaders looked at Cyril, as if realizing something.

Afterwards, they turned their attention to the priest of the Church of Art and Beauty. He was the one who knew Cyril the most among them. It might be better for him to talk to Cyril.

Although priests and vampires are sworn enemies, Cyril's father was killed by a vampire, which also means that vampires are Cyril's enemies.

The priest of the Church of Art and Beauty sighed, walked up to Cyril, leaned over and asked softly.

Looking at the familiar middle-aged woman in front of him, the little boy pursed his mouth, and repeated what he said to Zhong Ye.

After he finished speaking, Zhong Ye opened the suitcase and took out the glass jar inside.

"Isn't that what those vampires injected into you?"

Hearing Zhong Ye's voice, Cyril hurriedly turned his head to look, and then, he saw a cloud of black mist rolling in the glass jar, his eyes widened immediately, and he shouted: "That's it! They just put this thing poured into my body!"

——Sure enough!
Just as Zhong Ye guessed, the two monsters 'Painted Skin' and 'Vampire' really teamed up.

Hearing these words, the faces of everyone present became ugly, and the barrage in front of Lilian's eyes also exploded.

The 'stone platform' in Cyril's memory may be the altar built by 'Painted Skin'. Does this mean that the altars around Chartres are also used for experiments?
At this moment, Zhong Ye suddenly remembered something, and asked the priests present: "I want to ask, is it true that the corpses of all vampires will turn into dust shortly after death?"

"Of course!" a priest from another church immediately replied, "All vampires are like that!"

Zhong Ye nodded thoughtfully, and abruptly changed the subject: "Before that, I met a vampire once, and that was not long after I came to Westland."

Why are you talking about this all of a sudden?

"It's a small town in Yitruer. It's still some distance away from the occupied area, but it's already the closest town to the occupied area."

Zhong Ye recalled what happened a few months ago, but it felt like a long time had passed.

"There, I teamed up with a demon hunter to kill Nemo. Before that, I also met a vampire. After I killed it, the body did not turn into ashes soon. On the contrary, until When the sun rises, its head becomes a handful of dust."

Having said that, Zhong Ye paused, and then his voice became deep: "I suspect that it is also an attempt by the vampires - they have made other attempts besides joining forces with 'Painted Skin', trying to make the Get rid of your original weakness and become stronger."

Hearing this, the room fell into silence.

Everyone looked at Zhong Ye, with complex and incomprehensible expressions in their eyes.

I don't know if it's shock, fear, thinking, or admiration...

Did this kind of 'bad luck' begin to happen to Zhong Ye not long after he first came to Westland?
　Aha, the foreshadowing set at the beginning!
