The Only Righteous Priest Chapter 4

Why are my eyes filled with tears.

Because I love this bonus deeply.

If Adrian is really given another chance to start over, he will definitely not act like this!

But now, it’s gone, all gone!

Captain Edward and his men retreated after transferring the warlock's corpse and the succubus to the church.

Carrying the Ethan Evil's head, he returned to Xueyuan Town to comfort the people and announce the good news.

Adrian watched the four people leave and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The Ethan Evil's head was cut off and his body was separated.

Even if you have extraordinary abilities, you can't be resurrected.

This time he is completely dead.

Turning back to the church, Adrian did not rest, but went straight to the ossuary in the church basement.

Although the battle is over, the matter has not yet come to an end.

Although the Ethan Evil who was the instigator was beheaded, the whole thing was not over.

Now the only person Adrian can interrogate is the succubus Lilith, who was an accomplice.

There are hundreds of skulls and bones in the ossuary, stacked up layer by layer, covering the walls.

These skeletons all come from the devout followers of the Church of Light in Snowfield Town.

After the death of believers, their bodies will be buried in the woods behind the church.

After ten years of flesh and blood decaying and turning into bones, the priest will dig out and collect the bones and send them to the ossuary under the church. After death, they will enjoy eternal light and become a part of the church.

For believers, being able to enter the church cemetery or the ossuary after death is an honor in itself, and it is an affirmation and reward for their sincere religious belief.

If you had to choose a place in the church where the power of light is strongest, it would be the ossuary which is made up of the bones of hundreds of devout believers.

The succubus is imprisoned here, and its dark and evil abilities are suppressed by the power of light.

The tortoise shell bindings on the succubus had been loosened, but her hands were still tied and there were iron chains around her ankles.

Adrian walked forward, roughly pulled out the handkerchief stuffed in her mouth, then moved a stool, sat in front of the succubus, and asked directly:

"Recently, many people in Xueyuan Town have gone crazy and insane. And what about the family of three outside the city tonight? Did you do that?"

The succubus had been frightened by Adrian's previous actions and did not dare to do anything rash.

He nodded first, then shook his head frantically: "Gould planned and acted out the whole thing himself. I didn't provide any help."

"Tell us in detail how you committed your crime." Adrian said as he took notes during the interrogation.

The succubus will carefully arrive at Snowfield Town and spread fear in the city. Gould will find a family of three outside the city and poison the man to cause the family of three to kill each other in order to seize their souls.

After that, the succubus added in panic: "Gould did all this by himself. I had no involvement in the whole process. I hope the Reverend can understand this."

Adrian did not make any statement. As the saying goes, if the punishment is unknown, then the power is unpredictable.

When dealing with succubi, once you soften your attitude and tone, they will become more aggressive.

"Tell me, how did you get this sacrificial ritual?"

This method of sacrificing to the evil gods from other dimensions has always been a powerful enemy that the righteous people have been guarding against.

First, through sacrifice one can quickly gain power beyond one's own strength;

Secondly, this kind of cross-dimensional sacrifice has always been the prototype of the development of cults.

If everyone were to gain power through such an effortless method as sacrifice, who would work hard at practicing in the future?

Serious face.jpg.

Adrian has this piece of information in front of him right now. If he can grasp it well, it will be no problem to transfer to a church in a big town to live out his retirement!

Lilith's face showed a tangled look. After a moment's hesitation, she said, "My Lord, although this may sound incredible, you must believe me. I am definitely not lying to you."

Seeing that Adrian still had an indifferent expression, Lilith said, "The secret method of this sacrificial ceremony was won by Gould in a bet at the bar."

Bar, bet, win the secret of sacrificial ritual?

Adrian couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

He had heard of people getting drunk, picking up corpses, and fighting in bars, but this was the first time he had heard of a sacrificial ceremony taking place in a bar.

"Tell me more."

Lilith fell into recollection: "Succubi cannot appear in taverns in human towns. So the whole thing was told to me by Gould when he asked me to identify the authenticity of the secret technique."

Afterwards, Lilith told her everything Gould had boasted about.

When Adrian heard this, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

When Lilith started talking about the down-and-out warlock in the bar who had to mortgage his secret arts because of lack of money, Adrian had already guessed what would happen next.

The result was exactly the same as Adrian had guessed. It was nothing more than that the down-and-out Ethan Evil regarded the secret art as a treasure, while others did not recognize its value. Only Gould, who was also a Ethan Evil, understood the value of the secret art.

But at this moment, another Ethan Evil who knew what he was doing appeared and began to compete with Gould.

I am not afraid of things being too cheap, I am afraid of people fighting over them.

This fight caused Gould to suffer a heavy loss, but he finally obtained the secret technique.

The down-and-out warlock said that he was only a temporary mortgage, and the secret arts could be viewed during the mortgage period, but when he raised funds and wanted to redeem it, he must agree.

To this end, the two also concluded a contract.

In order to fully master the secret art within a limited time, after summoning Lilith to confirm the authenticity of the secret art, Gould began to study it day and night, fearing that the down-and-out warlock would raise enough funds when he was halfway through and his work would fail.

He studied every day with fear in his heart, until one day the down-and-out warlock found Gould and said discouragedly that he could not raise enough funds in the short term, and hoped that Gould could pay more money to make this deal permanent.

These words hit the mark exactly what Gould wanted, as his research on the secret arts had reached the most critical moment.

With only a minimal investment, you can completely eliminate your worries, which is just like someone handing you a pillow when you are sleepy.

Gould paid the fee promptly, and then, as if fearing that the other party would go back on his word, he traveled all the way to the remote place of Snowfield Town.

It was also here that the final requirements and preparations for the ceremony were completed.

On the night of the ceremony, Lilith is summoned to protect you.

In Adrian's opinion, this sale was a scam from the beginning, and the other party had even set their sights on Gould early on.

The claim that he is short of money and is selling the secret arts at a low price is fake, and the warlock who suddenly appears to raise the price is also a sting, whose purpose is to increase credibility.

Later, when they couldn't raise enough money, they said they would sell it permanently, which really hit Gould's pain point.

From the very beginning, the other party's goal was to allow Gould to master and use the secret art of sacrifice without anyone noticing.

As for the purpose, Adrian could probably guess a little.

After all, wandering wild Ethan Evils have uncertain whereabouts and lack solid social relationships.

As experimental guinea pigs and tools, if they succeed, they can create chaos, but if they fail, no one will be able to trace the source...

As the system popped up a prompt that the task was completed, Adrian also stood up and said in a cold voice: "Although Gould harmed people and spread fear, it has nothing to do with you. But as an evil plane creature who signed the contract, you are born guilty. Now that you have been caught by me, you will repent in the church for the rest of your life!" [Justice Value +100]

After saying this, he closed the cell door and left the ossuary, leaving behind only a cold and intelligent figure.
