Chapter 656: Shapeshifter
Because of this, most shapeshifters live a depraved life similar to that of a "parasite."
Although shapeshifters are not all villains, and there are creatures in the world that are more evil and crazy than shapeshifters, there are few species like shapeshifters that are regarded as a scourge by the Holy Light Vatican that can be quickly eliminated.
Rather than saying that the Holy See hates shapeshifters, it is better to say that the Holy See responded to the public's hatred of shapeshifters.
Imagine that you are successful in your career, have a lovely wife at home, and your life is prosperous.
Unfortunately, you are targeted by a shape-shifter, who destroys your body after assassination, replaces your identity, steals your career and property, seizes your wife, and even ruins your reputation...
Gao Fei put himself in his shoes and couldn't help but feel horrified.
"Brother Musk, Miss Colt, there are shapeshifters in our organization. After some secret investigation, ten of them are the most suspect."
Umberto took out his pocket watch and took a look at it.
"In another hour, these ten people will come to the living room on the second floor of the tavern and accept my cross-examination. The next question is how to judge whether any of them has lied."
"Mr. Esposito, I think this is the reason why you invited me here." Lisa's eyes flashed, "At least you, me, Musk, Sister Claire and Mr. Mario can be trusted!"
"Oh, poor Mario, it's still believable for now."
Claire teased with a smile.
"Lisa, are you sure?"
Goofy asked the young "Judge".
"My third-level magic skills 'Discerning Lies' and 'Guiding Confession' can both be used to identify spies. This alone is not safe enough. I need three more things."
Lisa held up three fingers.
"Just say whatever you need." Umberto said with a smile on his lips.
"First of all, we each need to prepare a helmet."
"Secondly, a minimum of 20 pounds of lead is required."
"Finally, we have to find a reliable blacksmith to beat the lead blocks into lead sheets as the lining of the helmet."
Sensing the confusion in everyone's eyes, Lisa explained:
"The 'mind-reading' ability of the shapeshifter can be blocked by obstacles, such as a brick wall or an iron plate."
"The denser the substance, the better it will hinder 'mind reading'."
"According to the literature of our church, a lead sheet as thick as parchment is enough to block the mind-reading ability of shapeshifters."
"Of course, if gold is used as the shielding layer, the effect will be better than lead, but the cost will be higher, which is unnecessary."
"Understood." Umberto turned to Mario and Claire and said, "According to Miss Colt's request, five helmets lined with lead will be prepared within half an hour."
The two nodded and immediately stood up and left.
Umberto took a sip of wine and then changed the subject.
"Brother Musk, David Fuller drowned in the river last night. Did you hear that?"
"Brother Umberto, did you arrange this?" Gao Fei asked in a low voice.
"I sent someone to do it." Umberto admitted frankly.
"The last time you were plotted by someone from the Camorra Gang, I have found out the whole story. It was that David Fuller resented you for representing Mrs. Jones in the estate dispute case, so he hired Camorra Gang's killers to set up a trap and planned to solve it secretly. you."
"Fuller did not personally come forward in this matter, and he did not leave any evidence. Legal proceedings will not help him. However, our gang has gang methods to express dissatisfaction with this noble banker."
After groaning, Umberto continued:
"Now we know that the Camorra Gang has actually been replaced by shapeshifters."
"They initially accepted Fuller's commission to assassinate you just to make money. Judging from the grade of assassins they selected at that time, they obviously didn't take you seriously enough."
"It's different now, brother Musk, you have already made a name for yourself and attracted the attention of the shapeshifters."
"Just now, the shapeshifter pretended to be Mario and tried to plot against you and Miss Colt. I'm afraid he wanted to replace your identities."
Gao Fei's scalp felt numb.
Lisa's expression also changed, and she gritted her teeth and said, "In this day and age, criticizing the Inquisition is politically correct, but I have to say that there are indeed innocent souls on the stake, but more of them are human detritus like shapeshifters!"
"The ideological trend of human society is like a pendulum, always swinging back and forth between the extreme left and the extreme right. If today's social atmosphere where hypocrites are prevalent goes to the extreme, one day people will miss the stakes of the Inquisition!"
Gao Fei was deeply shocked after hearing what Lisa said.
Of course he knows that Lisa is just an NPC in the game, and her lines are all designed.
Why should she be given such lines?
Is it just to portray the character of Lisa, or is there some innuendo?
Goofy was lost in thought.
Time passed quickly, and half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.
Claire and Mario return with five lead-lined helmets.
Everyone tried to put on the helmet, and the size was quite suitable.
After some time, ten gang members came to the second floor of the tavern on time to accept Umberto's summons.
"There is a traitor among you! To be precise, it's a shape-shifter."
As soon as Umberto finished speaking, the expressions of all ten people changed.
"Brother! It's definitely not me!"
"How can I prove my innocence?"
"Who is the traitor? I will be the first to spare him!"
Everyone started shouting.
Gao Fei noticed that two of them seemed particularly nervous.
Especially when Lisa showed them the lead-lined helmet, the two guys turned their heads to look at each other at the same time, their faces pale.
Before Umberto questioned them and Lisa started the "Guided Confession", the two guys with guilty consciences suddenly turned around and rushed to the window.
Gao Fei had been staring at them and drew his pistol at the first moment.
However, before he could make a move, Umberto dragged a row of afterimages and blocked the window, with thousands of cold lights in his hands.
Swish!
The sound of swords being drawn echoed in the air.
The two spies had collapsed.
With their hands tightly covering their chests, blood flowed out through their fingers.
They didn't see clearly when Umberto drew his sword and how he opened a hole in their chests.
The reason they were still alive was only because the "Archangel" kept them alive.
Umberto Esposito, the legendary invincible man, was so scary!
The intense pain and fear that was even stronger than the pain caused the two shapeshifters to collapse on the spot, urinate incontinently, and be unable to maintain their disguised forms and return to their original appearance.
These two humanoid monsters both had smooth gray skin, which felt like cheap plastic products.
As described in the illustrations, the shapeshifters were skinny and had flat faces with no features, as if they had been polished by sandpaper, except for their emerald green eyes, which had black striped pupils that looked like the stripe codes on supermarket product labels.
