The Exorcist Boy: The Book of Conviction

Chapter 29 The Cursed Town
"Huh? A curse?"

Snow looked at the coachman in surprise, he didn't feel any strange power in the town, not even a demon.

"Yeah! Curse... about half a year ago, a plague broke out in the small town, many people died, and coffins were pushed onto the street almost every day.

Later, the plague was eradicated, but in less than a month, many people in the small town had a strange extermination case. Only their clothes were left at the scene, and even their bodies were not found.

People said that they were people who died in the plague and turned into wraiths... The local security did not have the strength to deal with it, so in just half a year, the people in the town fled one after another, and then the war happened again. erupted nearby.

Just a few days ago, that town was ransacked by the enemy army, and the sound of guns and explosions rang out all night. "

The old man driving the car sighed.

If it had been in the past, Snow would definitely have scoffed at what he said, what the hell is going on in this world?

But now, Snow had to think carefully, after all, the world he was in now might even have gods.

However, generally speaking, such folk cunning incidents are often just rumors or pranks. Anyway, as far as I know, Snow has never seen the so-called wraiths.

Even the devil is nothing more than a mechanical creation with magical power, he has blown up a lot.

It sounds like this kind of incident is a bit like a demon at work.

Of course, it is also possible that the power of [INNOCENCE] has spread to the surroundings, but will [INNOCENCE] be hidden in the small town before?

Although Snow had some doubts, he didn't plan to go back to find out. After all, he considered himself a lazy dog, and he was already busy enough with work.

For the rest, let’s wait until the Black Order’s headquarters has found specific information. There are not many [INNOCENCE] scattered all over the world, so it’s impossible for me to encounter them all!
"It's here! Mr. Xiao, because this is the military logistics center of the Principality of the Rhine, you are not allowed to enter. According to the route you want to pass, you only need to go around from the north."

After arriving at the place, the coachman reminded him kindly, because his ox cart was transporting the supplies collected by the army.

"OK, thank you, sir, it's a short journey anyway."

Snow said goodbye to the other party, then jumped off the bullock cart, picked up his luggage, and planned to rush to the dock city alone.

"Let's go for a while and see if we can meet another kind person or a caravan, let's take a ride or something."

Snow thought so, but before he could take a few steps, he was suddenly stopped by a group of sergeants.

"Well, look at the monastic uniform you are wearing, are you a member of the religious order?"

After the chief sergeant stopped Snow, he stepped forward and asked.

"Cult? If you're talking about the black sect, then you should be right, but I'm an exorcist in the sect, and I'm in charge of..."

Before Snow could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the opponent directly waving.

"It doesn't matter, don't care about the black church, the white church, as long as it is a priest, because there is a war here, so all the priests in the church in the small town have run away.
It happened to be him, let me carry him away. "

"what?"

Snow was at a loss, and before he could figure out what happened, the two sergeants next to him directly took his arms and dragged him into the town.

"Hey! Wait a minute, I'm not a spy, I'm just an ordinary person passing by..."

Snow hurriedly explained that he felt that he might have been arrested as a spy because he approached the military area without authorization.

"Don't worry, no one will hurt you here, it's just because we can't find a priest right now, so you look pretty similar in your outfit and appearance, let's catch you first."

"But I'm not a priest!"

"Aren't they all those messy religious believers? There's no difference."

These big-hearted and rough-headed Qiu Ba would not listen to Snow explaining to them the difference between an exorcist and a priest.

Anyway, in their opinion, it is almost enough. In the previous wars, the soldiers of the Principality of the Rhine suffered not small casualties, but generally speaking, the burial of the dead requires a priest to pray for them, so as to guide their souls to return successfully. heaven.

Anyway, the custom has always been like this. Although many soldiers don't believe it, it can be regarded as a kind of psychological comfort after all.

However, the pastor in the church in the small town ran away cleanly when the fight started, and now there are a group of dead who urgently need to pray to comfort the dead, but now they can't find suitable people to pray for the victims.

When they didn't know what to do, they happened to see Snow wearing a black teaching uniform at the door, so they grabbed him directly.

Get on the horse in a hurry and let him push it up!

"Listen well, kid, you must have been to church in this outfit, just follow your usual prayers and blessings, and give our heroes a good ride!"

No way, it seems that if I don't do what they say, then these guys won't let me go.

In desperation, Snow could only imitate the appearance of the bishops he had seen before, pretending to half-kneel down, and then put his hands together, muttering something that he didn't know what it was.

Perhaps it was because Snow imitated it too much, or because the current occasion looked so solemn that the surrounding area suddenly became quiet.

"Ami... oh no! Amen!!!"

It really looked like that, anyway, Snow was directly full of the external sense of ritual, and the sergeants standing there looked very solemn, as if they really thought that Snow was doing something for those who died. What about praying?

"That's all right? Can you let me go?"

After finishing all this, Snow looked at the sergeant major who pulled him over and asked tentatively, he had enough troubles and accidents along the way.

"Well... well, since you're doing pretty well, you just..."

Before he could finish speaking, there was another energetic, sonorous and powerful harmony sound from the gate of the town.

"Her Royal Highness Princess Rhine came to encourage and express condolences to our brave warriors who were wounded in the front line."

"...you just stay for a while."

Snow's face twitched involuntarily, he really wanted to slap this guy right now.

And the so-called princess, you are such a big man, why do you come to this kind of place to put on a show? Wouldn’t it be good to have a tea party with a group of noble ladies obediently?
If it really doesn't work, find two little tender ducks...

At this moment, Snow was slandering wildly in his heart. The arrival of this so-called princess meant that there was no way to enter and leave here at will. From this point of view, he was detained here again.

So Snow could only honestly find a corner and squat down, wait for the big man to leave after visiting, and then find a chance to leave from here.

Now Snow was at the place where the wounded soldiers were taken in. Many people around him were wrapped in bandages, and from time to time they could still look at one or two guys with missing arms and legs.

Because of the religious order uniform on Snow and the blessing ceremony he performed before, everyone really thought that he was a priest, so that for a while, no one came to take care of him and let him be here Stroll around.

black...red...

In the whole town, the colors emitted by the human body are basically occupied by these two kinds, and the overall atmosphere is also very stuffy. From time to time, the painful groans of the injured can be heard, which is extremely depressing.

War is a cruel thing.

"His Royal Highness is here..."

It seems that the so-called Her Royal Highness Princess Rhine came to the wounded barracks to offer condolences.

In this world, there are not many nobles at the level of so-called princesses. The Duchy of the Rhine and the Duchy of Beto, the two countries that are currently at war, have a combined territory that is not as large as the smallest municipality in their previous life!

Even so, the condolences from the princess caused some commotion among the soldiers in the wounded barracks.
