Werewolf hunting rules

Following Clayton's habit, he began to list the things they had already speculated together with the information they had just received from Quake, and then let everyone join in to think about it and make some criticisms.

"Chud Osmar followed Kuok to Jevo. Kuok didn't know the reason. It was Osmar who took the initiative to find him and asked to accompany him."

"Osmar often went out for walks alone in the name of a painter seeking inspiration."

Julius also added: "Osmar originally planned to participate in the repair work of the church murals with Quock, but the two painters we had met at the hotel outperformed them in the application."

"It seems that even if we don't come, he will attack the priesthood. Maybe there is something he needs in the church, and he must be invited by the master to enter behind the door. The curse carried by some darkspawn will cause this situation. "

Clayton nodded in agreement, then looked at Padre Lewis.

The priest said: "I have recovered the documents you asked for. The ancient records did mention some remaining ancient buildings. But in order to build the new town, those abandoned buildings were demolished and the stones were used Making a church in a town.”

He passed several documents to Clayton.

"Another thing is that after the death of Saint Mored, his last wishes were violated by the new messenger of the throne. When the church was being built, someone dug deep into the earth and they found some filth and removed it. But there are no specific written records left about those filthy things. I have a guess that maybe those corpses and mourning crosses in the swamp were not originally there."

"Those bodies were actually moved," Clayton continued.

Clayton actually had a guess that the numbers of the mourning crosses were very messy. If it followed the wishes of St. Mored and the laws of natural labor, then the numbers of the mourning crosses should become smaller and smaller as they go deeper into the ground. but it is not the truth.

The numbers of the mourning crosses had nothing to do with the depth of their existence, and the bodies were buried in a mess, not like the work of a saint.

Louis' suspicion coincided with his.

"There is definitely a magic circle used to perform Elisio's ritual in Gevo, and only Osmar knows where it is." The wizard said confidently: "Those corpses are definitely the sacrifices of that ancient ritual."

"But where did so many dead people come from? Didn't the Dinons here leave before the Manses came?" Donna asked. She couldn't understand this. Schmidt's opinion of the "treasure" The description was still working in her mind at this moment.

Julius laughed.

"But don't forget, Schmidt once said that those Dinong people took away all the property they could take away, and only stayed behind what they couldn't take away."

Donna blinked and took a moment to understand what he meant.

She asked horrified: "You mean they killed these people themselves just to take away the 'power' gained from the blood sacrifice through the Elisio ritual?"

"They may be slaves, or worthless old people. Contemporary nobles have little humanity, let alone ancient nobles. For those ancient nobles, it is natural for them to leave more space on the ship for treasures and daily necessities. thing."

Donna was completely stunned. Whether the treasure existed or not was no longer a concern for her.

After waiting for them for a while, no new opinions emerged, so Clayton continued: "Osmar and the doctor have a good relationship, and the doctor seems to be very sane and shows no signs of being controlled. The doctor said that the opportunity for them to get acquainted was Osmar. Mal is really good at fishing.”

"This may be the effect of witchcraft." Old Perot said.

Clayton felt that this point needed to be considered. Some people would belittle the opponent's abilities because of their ugly personality, but these two points were not actually related.

"Okay, let me assume that he has the ability to mentally control fish, or to release a special optical or odorous message to lure fish." He tentatively noted this down, and no one else expressed objections.

"He would look for opportunities to go to the river and used to spy there from the hillsides."

Donna raised a hand: "I think he wanted to target the water fairy. Our appearance at that time was just an accident."

"Yes." This was a new point of view, but Clayton completely agreed with her, because Padre Louis had just provided a crucial clue: "In Quake's reaction, it was he who killed Sevan, and in A According to Dredd's testimony, it was a monster similar to me who took Sevan away."

Julius took a cigarette and lit it for himself. The flames of the fireplace made him warm, and the wounds all over his body were itching: "This may have been an accident at the time, but it is not now. Leave in Adelaide After Gevo, Osmar's thoughts were focused on us. He had visited here before and almost killed me. Although we were separated by the door at the time, my intuition now tells me that it was him who was watching here. .”

"I think he was not looking for trouble. Maybe we have similarities with Adelaide, which made him start looking for a replacement after Adelaide left."

This theory was almost impeccable, but Clayton never thought that this matter that had been solved would cause so much trouble in the future.

Clayton thought for a moment and looked at Donna.

No matter how you think about it, Donna is the one most similar to the water fairy in their group.

She is at least female, and also knows some destiny-related witchcraft.

But it could also be Barbara, who is resurrected from death and has something in common with the way the Water Nymph awakens.

But no matter what, they couldn't hand them over.

"This may have something to do with the soul of the land. He must know something. I will find a way to capture him alive later."

"There is also the beast Quok who is attracted by disasters. He doesn't know about this. People outside Osmar's sect are tracking it instead. But it may also be Quok's own problem. He doesn't seem to know how to do it. Hang out with people like Christopher who are college professors.”

"That's all we can infer about Chud Osmar himself, but there seems to be some doubts about that group of Salvation Army soldiers." He reminded: "Quok said that they are all sick. If I am not wrong, he It should be the same symptoms that Francis had before his death."

That symptom also appeared in Barbara, and she was more likely to be targeted by Chud Osmar.

"Francis also went crazy when he had an attack. This problem can even affect you. So what does that mean?" Julius asked.

Clayton looked at him dissatisfied: "I thought this was a problem you should figure out."

This is what he hired a mage consultant to do.

Julius spread his hands: "Wizards just have one more sensory organ than other people. It doesn't mean that we are omniscient and omnipotent and will be affected by that ability. You must be unique, but you don't know it yet. I think you should Think carefully about whether your parents left you with any special physique."

"Of course I will."

Creighton wrote down all the key points. After recording, he raised his head and said to Ian Lazarus. "I wish you could cheer up. You seem to have a problem with us."

The newborn vampire did not join in their discussion, as if everything here had nothing to do with him.

From Clayton's point of view, Ian Lazarus's face was sallow in the light of the fireplace. He looked as sickly as a piece of bacon, and Barbara held one of his arms. She looked at him worriedly from beginning to end.

"Yes, I do have an opinion."

"Now I want you to tell us what you think of us."

"I" Just as Ian stood up, Barbara leaned over and whispered in his ear, asking him to cheer up again. It's just that this kind of perk up is very unhealthy.

There was a kind of fanaticism on Ian's face, but there was sadness in his eyes.

"So it was you who attacked Athena Bailuge. I want to know if my only brother died in your hands. He had accepted Bailuge's employment before."

He had just heard the name "Athena Bailuge", and he knew that this was the name of his brother's employer in his last commission, which brought his mood back to the moment when his brother's body was found.

If Clayton killed Athena, it means that he was also on the opposite side of Detective Hook in the last incident.

When he thought that he might have served the murderer for so long, Ian wanted to die immediately.

But he can't die yet, he needs answers.

"Tell me, how did your brother die?" Hearing Ian say "only brother," Clayton couldn't help but dig at the wound on his abdomen with his black nails, one after another.

Ian Lazarus pulled away from Barbara's hand and stood up suddenly, trembling all over.

"No, I want you to tell me first, how did you kill those people?!"

Clayton understood his concerns and was not angry: "Just like any human killer, we only have knives and guns. This is in an urban area. We don't want to make too much noise, and we don't waste too much time cutting up bodies." Time, we only arranged the scene to look like a vendetta. Now tell me about your brother."

"He only has so much left. He can hold it with two hands," Ian said in a daze. His voice was very dry. Without blood, he couldn't even cry.

He suddenly thought of something and turned back to look at Barbara.

"Don't look at her. There is something wrong with vampires, but it's definitely not her fault. She didn't have such a good appetite at the time." Clayton analyzed rationally. "Athena Bailuge also killed a group of Hook detectives. You know that this employer is not human, right? Based on the characteristics of her body structure, her killing method has her own uniqueness, you should be able to tell. "

Ian Lazarus's judgmental gaze swept across them one by one, and only paused on Louis, who accepted the accusation in silence.

There is a life-and-death grudge between them, but at this moment there are heavier things pressing on them, forcing them not to pay attention to each other for the time being.

After looking around, Lazarus' eyes stopped on Clayton again.

"How do I know what you said is true? Maybe there were other monsters with you at that time, not just the ones here."

"I can swear!" Barbara couldn't help shouting. She also stood up, broke Ian's body, and forced him to look directly into her eyes: "We are the only ones who kill, no one else."

Ian Lazarus stared at her silently, like a work-study apprentice staring at his drunkard mother who always used his own money to gamble.

The absolute authority of the vampire ancestors over their descendants leaves no trust between them.

Clayton patted his thigh: "If you have no other opinions, I think we can continue."

They were pressed for time. By daylight, he would set out again to kill Chud Osmar.
