Don't call me evil god

Chapter 400 Tracing the Source

Griffin was even a little worried.

The asking price was too low.

Can this price really dig out valuable evidence of the crime?

Don't let him take the blame and not spend all the money.

He will definitely regret it.

He asked the question in his heart.

Yaan was stunned for a long time, looked up and down at Griffin, and then suddenly said:

"If you want to increase the money, of course you can."

"But for the sake of gold coins, I'll tell you."

"In fact-even if you don't pay this reward, Bishop Henry Trang will not be able to work for long!"

"You want to find the other party's dirty evidence, I thought you were going to take the opportunity..."

"Anyway, if you have an idea, maybe you can consider taking a 'ride' at the right time."

...

Yaan was telling the truth.

He thought the other party knew that Bishop Henry Trang was going to be finished, and planned to take the opportunity to get promoted, so he was collecting evidence in advance, ready to make merit by reporting.

This guy doesn't know anything!

Outsiders don't know.

How could the believers who were directly involved in stopping the Countess from fighting not know?

The two mysterious black-robed men who tempted and guided the Countess.

Seeing that they could not resist, they exploded without saying a word.

No trace of their bodies was left.

The clues were almost cut off.

This is the most frustrating situation.

There is no way to track them down.

There is obviously a huge secret behind these black-robed men.

Just those strange hexagonal gems gave Norman a reason to guide the believers to find them.

Every time they see them, they have to be related to gems!

Norman directly edited a task and issued it.

Arrange believers to investigate and collect clues related to the black-robed men.

According to the clues Nicole had provided, she saw Bishop Henry Tran secretly meeting with these black-robed men.

Of course, the meeting statement is not accurate.

The actual situation described by Nicole is:

She accidentally saw two black-robed men with similar figures sneaking into the relief center of the Glowing Church outside Ceylon.

The relief center is an institution established by the Glorious God Church.

Food and accommodation are provided every day, and there are preachers to preach to the people who receive relief.

Food and accommodation are not completely free.

Generally, labor is required, such as washing clothes and organizing various ritual supplies of the church.

Only after completing these tasks can the food distributed by the relief center be received.

It is called food.

In fact, it is porridge with pickled vegetables.

There are only a few grains of rice in the whole pot of porridge, and the pickled vegetables are only the size of a fingernail.

It can only ensure that you will not starve to death.

Not to mention the place to live.

A thin bamboo mat is the bed, and dozens of people are crammed into one room, so crowded that their heads are touching their feet, their feet are stepping on their heads, and they have to share a chamber pot and urinal.

Refugees outside Ceylon are frequent visitors to the relief center, but not all refugees can enter.

Most of the time, you have to give some benefits to the deacon priest in charge of managing the relief center to get a precious quota, which is a limited-time one.

Normal people rarely approach such places on weekdays.

Nicole happened to see two black-robed people entering the relief center under the cover of night.

Then they never came out again.

At least during the time Nicole observed, she did not see any black-robed people leave until midnight.

Nicole later learned that that day was the monthly charity day.

Bishop Henry Tran would go to the relief center and personally serve porridge, treat illnesses, and preach to the people receiving relief.

Not only Bishop Henry Tran, but other kind-hearted nobles, merchants, citizens, etc. would also go to the relief center on this day and donate generously.

Later.

Nicole paid special attention to it several times.

On this day of every month, she could see black-robed figures entering the relief center.

It is impossible to be completely sure that the other party is related to Bishop Henry Tran.

But the other party's strange behavior pattern at least shows that they must have some connection with the Glorious God Cult.

As long as we can find solid evidence, it will be easy to pull down a bishop.

...

Pet, after the Countess returned to the castle, took Miranda and Gale into the castle again and met with the Countess in the study.

The reason for not bringing Brandon was that he couldn't do such a brain-intensive thing.

Brandon was responsible for taking away the bodies of the dead with his companions and waiting for people to come back to claim them.

He was good at this job.

Pete and his companions continued to collect clues about the black-robed men.

"Madam, do you know anything else about the two black-robed men?"

Pete asked very seriously.

"This matter is very important. In fact, the disaster suffered by the Ceylon region is absolutely related to them."

"If this hidden danger cannot be solved, they may continue to secretly deceive others."

The Countess of Ceylon did not hide anything.

She recalled and said slowly:

"They came to me on their own initiative."

"The reason I chose to believe them at that time was because of the artifact they took out."

"After Sepp disappeared, I tried various methods to reappear but all failed, except for that artifact."

"As long as I follow the method they taught me and hold the artifact in my hand, I can use the illusion magic again and let Sepp return to me."

"I don't know much about their identities."

"Because...it seems that there are more than two of them..."

Pet frowned.

"More than two?"

"Have you seen more black-robed people?"

The Countess explained: "No, what I mean is that although only two people come to see me each time, they are different people every time."

"I have proposed to see their true faces under the black robes before I can believe them."

"But every time I see them, they are new faces that are different from the previous ones."

"When I first saw them, one of them was a dwarf with a thick reddish-brown beard on his face, and the other was a one-eyed dwarf wearing a cloth eye patch."

"The second time the black-robed people came to the door, the bearded dwarf and the one-eyed dwarf did not come. Although they were still dwarves, they became bald and had a Mediterranean hairstyle."

"I asked them why the two people didn't come last time, and they refused to answer."

Pet frowned even more.

The situation is more complicated than expected.

According to the description of the Countess, there are more than two black-robed people, but a large-scale organization!

"Is there any other information you think is valuable?" Pete asked.

The Countess seemed to have made up her mind.

"Yes!"

She raised her hand and waved.

The wizard's hand with a faint blue light flew out and took down a small safe from the bookshelf.

The safe was covered with complex rune patterns and energy circuits.

"Click."

The white light of the secret lock gradually faded, and the Countess unlocked it with her own hands.

She took out a somewhat old wooden sign from it.

There were words carved on the wooden sign with a knife, but it was not a common language.

Pete didn't recognize what it was for a while.

Miranda recognized it:

"This is a clan sign unique to the Stone Castle dwarves!"
