Secret: I can play two paths

Chapter 129 Investigation of "Sword of the Goddess"
Knowing that the human traffickers here had been completely eliminated, Creste let out a long sigh and secretly praised the nameless extraordinary person in his heart.

Although official Extraordinary People and Wild Extraordinary People are always hostile to each other, when facing such scum, no matter what their previous positions were, anyone with a sense of morality will unite against the common enemy.

However, according to the descriptions of those girls, there were actually several extraordinary people behind the human traffickers like Kapin, and they were extraordinary people with the "arbitrator" path controlled by the royal family.

The meaning behind this is probably a bit scary.

This is also the reason why he was worried about other colleagues coming to check it out and chose to do it himself.

If they were to encounter danger at that time, this senior deacon of Creste, whose title was "Sword of the Goddess", would be able to fight as powerful as a newly promoted Sequence 5 when he was at Sequence 4, holding the sacred bone sword.

In this way, no matter how arrogant the people who arrived later were, they could not directly attack this high-ranking member of the Church of Evernight, considering his combat power and position.

While being alert, Krestai approached the gate of the villa, but suddenly froze and stopped a few meters away from the corpses.

It was not that a saint had come, but that he saw a horrifying and mysterious scene at the scene.

With the help of dark vision, he saw Katie and others who were shot in the head, Parker whose face was blurred, Capin with tarot cards scattered all over his body, and the two main cards covering the face of the human trafficker.

Two tarot cards were covering the head of Kapin, the culprit.

He saw the pattern painted on it——

They are the "Judgment" card with an angel blowing a trumpet and the "Wheel of Fortune" card with a lion-faced beast standing on the circular wheel!

The surface of the surrounding corpses is covered with more cards, which depict "Death riding a white horse and wearing armor", "Hermit in a robe and holding a lamp", "Chariot driven by the victor", as well as more Holy Grail number cards, Wand number cards, etc.

On the walls and on the ground, there are also tarot cards such as "Justice", "The Fool" and "The Hanged Man".

It all looked like the scene of some weird ritual, and Kapin was the one destined to be sacrificed.

Creste Sesima took a breath silently and frowned slightly.

In this scene full of symbolism, he was not frightened by the tarot cards covering the lying corpse.

Just a calm analysis:

The face of Kapin's corpse was covered with only two main cards of the Tarot deck, one "Judgment" and one "Wheel of Fortune".

"Judgment" is the motivation and purpose, and "Wheel of Fortune" represents the drastic change in Kapin's fate from surviving to a tragic death?
Is this a mockery of the fact that he desecrated the fate of innocent people and ultimately slid into his own doom?

Fate is constantly changing, does this mean that Kapin has been "judged" by "fate"?
Of course, the "Wheel of Fortune" card may also be a code name for that person himself.

Thinking of the "charlatan"-like words spoken by the extraordinary person in the girls' dreams, Krestai made another guess.

Statements like “I don’t know how to help you” and “Just follow the path I point you to, and I wish you good luck in the future” are so consistent with the mysterious style of the realm of destiny!

Even the fact that the group of girls happened to run into him while he was taking a walk was too much of a coincidence.

You know, generally speaking, this is the area under the jurisdiction of the Church of Storms. Ordinary clergy from the Church of Night would rarely appear in this place with the Holy Wind Cathedral of the Church of Storms.

However, seeing that there were still traces of the power of "Nightmare" and the spiritual legacy of "Midnight Poet" vibrating the air at the scene, Krestai was not so sure about the path of this extraordinary person.

It couldn't be that the night watchmen in the church were displeased with this human trafficker and raided this place directly, right?
Krestey frowned, and for a moment he thought this was simply ridiculous.

If it was really a "nightmare", when did such a fierce Beyonder appear in the church? Fortunately, he didn't stay here for too long, and he discovered more Beyonder elements.

For example, after inspection, it was confirmed that the corpse was directly attacked at the spiritual level - this represents the power of the "vengeful spirit" from the "alien" path.

If these are all abilities released by this "Ghost Rider", then this person must have too many magical items.

Or is he the "record officer"? After all, even if the crazy people in the Aurora Society rescued these girls, they would turn them into lambs of the "real creator".

And that kind of "good luck" could also be the effect of a magical item.

At least Creste knew that the "Holy Bone Sword" in his hand would bring bad luck to the enemy, and also exert the effect of the "fate" field.

Of course, this could also be a ritual.

Krestey did not destroy the scene, but only checked the extraordinary people sent by the royal family.

It seems that he can also communicate with spirits.

Without delay, Krestey quickly blocked the place with a spiritual wall and arranged a "spiritual" ceremony.

(After reaching Sequence 6 in the Night Path, one can attempt the "Spiritual Channeling" ritual, not to mention that Krestel is also a "Spiritual Shaman")
After getting ready, he was about to start "communication" when he suddenly let out a cry and stopped.

He discovered that the spirits of these people were subject to mysterious unknown restrictions. If he forcibly "communicated with the spirits", although there was a high probability that he would succeed, it would trigger the mark and allow a certain extraordinary person to notice it!
And the one who can inspire his inspiration is at least an extraordinary person at the demigod level.

Considering that Capian, who controls a large share of the underground slave trade, is protected by four Beyonders of the "Arbitrator" path, the strongest of whom is Sequence 6, Krestey already knows that this matter is by no means simple!
MI9? What on earth are they up to?
No, it is the military and the royal family that control MI9...

After taking a look at these people, Krestai felt a little embarrassed for a moment and frowned tightly.

Krestai did not expect that as one of the strongest people under the Saint, the forces involved behind this matter were actually difficult for even himself to trace.

If you force spiritual communication, the remaining souls here will just explode on their own under the restriction.

Perhaps he would have to ask the Archbishop of the Backlund Diocese of the Church of the Evernight Goddess, Saint Anthony Stevenson, to come over, in order to obtain important information under this "confidential" "restriction".

But this place is a bit far from Saint Samuel's Cathedral in the northern part of Backlund.

Not only that, because it has been a long time since their death, the spirits of the extraordinary people who died here are about to dissipate.

After taking a reluctant look at the place, Krestey turned to continue searching the scene for a while to see if there was any noteworthy evidence or clues.

But he obviously knew in his heart that this was not possible. If it existed, the "Ghost Rider" would have just put it out there.

But that didn't stop Krestey from searching here.

Some things cannot be investigated without evidence.

For example, as a senior deacon of the Church of Evernight, he has the possibility of further intervention when those girls have been blessed by the Church of Evernight and are likely to become believers of the Goddess.

However, which faction of the military was behind Kapin's actions...
