The Laws of Werewolf Hunting

Chapter 120 Outlier Priesthood
If there were any situation that Clayton could not accept, Barbara's current situation should be one of them.

When he and Julius arrived next to Barbara's position, the situation had become out of control.

On the street in the city center, the female vampire is lying on the ground.

She was facing up to the sky, her long hair was loose, and a little blood oozes from her chest, staining her clothes red in a circle.As for the position of the face, it is a little difficult to make out, because the back of her hand blocked her face in the last movement.

Clayton knew that vampires were extremely powerful, even if they were shot in the heart, they might not die, but he couldn't get close to confirm Barbara's situation.

Because there are too many people at the scene.

At least [-] or [-] people surrounded the area, blocking the street completely, and some people stuck their heads out of the high-rise windows of the houses next to the street to watch the excitement.

Just to see where Barbara was, they spent a lot of time finding something to step on, and they could only do it in a place far away from the crowd, because the broken bricks and planks had long been taken away by people nearer. I went up first, and there were people around the wall, so I couldn't go up at all.

If it weren't for the fact that they all have some extraordinary abilities, it would be impossible to observe from such a far away position.

God knows what happened to Barbara here to end up in this situation.

Those people were also talking about it. After listening for a while, Clayton and Julius realized that someone had shot here before, but when the first group of onlookers heard the sound and came, they only saw this woman topple.

And not long after the gunshot, the sheriff hasn't come yet.

"She's a vampire. If she was just shot, it wouldn't kill her." Julius said, staring at Barbara in the crowd, which was also what Clayton thought.

If the heart of the vampire is not struck with pure silver, or their head is chopped off, the cursed person is almost immortal.

Barbara may have been seriously injured, unable to use her extraordinary speed to slip away in front of ordinary people, so she had to accept onlookers here.

They came down from the wall, feeling sad.

Even if Barbara was still alive, how were they going to bring her back?

They can go there as sheriffs, but if they meet other sheriffs, they may be exposed immediately-the city center is not their jurisdiction, if there is a dead person, the sheriff of the jurisdiction must investigate their identity and provide its registration.

Even if the deceased has been identified, it cannot be brought back without a special reason.

That is to say, as long as they meet the sheriff along the way, they may be left behind, and the reason that the deceased is not from the parish cannot be prevaricated.

And Barbara is a resident of this city, and because of her appearance and experience, she is even well-known near her residence. If the sheriff here finds out her identity, it will cause trouble in many ways.

Julius suddenly had an idea: "You go in and carry her back, you can hold her, cry and say that you are her husband, she shot herself because she was jealous of you finding a mistress, you want Take her back for burial, and I think this tragic story will be enough to move any kind gentleman out of your way. Because you are a relative of the deceased, and the local sheriff will not bother us."

"No, I don't want to." Clayton shook his head firmly.

"Is there a doctor? Who can save this poor woman?" Someone in the huge crowd raised their hands and shouted.

It was beginning to be realized that this woman could not be left alone.

This kindness made Clayton's heart tighten.

"Then say you are a doctor, go up and try it, and then say that you have no tools and can't do anything, and you must be sent to the hospital so that I can call another carriage to pick you up." Julius urged again.

"No, don't think about it."

The lieutenant's eyes swept over the crowd and other high points of view, especially the open windows of the buildings on either side of the street.

"Are you going to give her up?" Julius asked, frowning.

"No, it's just that I suspect that the person who shot her hadn't left and was waiting for us to show up so we could see our faces."

In Clayton's eyes, there were too many suspects at the scene, at least a dozen or so.

The guys watching the excitement in the building and the first comers near the center of the crowd may be the killers. In this rich area, there are not many people who have the ability, willingness and courage to do such a thing. He almost Surely it was the Hook detectives who followed Spider-Priest.

"That's right, then you should think of a way." The mage leaned against the wall boredly, he wanted Clayton to do what he said more than he cared about Barbara, so he didn't feel too frustrated by this fact .

Clayton quickly found a gentleman who seemed to be able to help them.

The gentleman was standing at the edge of the crowd, wearing a priest's black robe, with handsome blond hair, looking quietly at Barbara in the center of the crowd.

He knew this one, they had met at the church where Joe Marney volunteered.

Clayton remembered the other party's name——Peti, a good name with ancient rhyme and a sense of sacredness.Moreover, the priest was said to be about the same age as him, but he looked much younger than him.

It is not uncommon for the priests of the diocese of St. Mellon to go to the city center. The two areas are adjacent, and the priests occasionally receive commissions for door-to-door baptisms.

He didn't know if the other party had discovered Barbara's dark-born identity, or whether they would be repelled after seeing her own identity, but since the church acquiesced in the existence of the Presbyterian Church and he helped a bishop, then they The relationship between them may not be so bad.

"Father." He attracted Petit's attention, and asked the priest to move aside.

Father Petit was indeed a kind person. He still remembered Clayton, so he kept smiling after seeing Clayton, and he agreed to their request very easily without explaining the reason.

With the help of the serving priest of the church, Clayton thought that Detective Hook would not take revenge and go back, otherwise it would be time to replace them and trouble them.

The priest in black walked into the crowd and easily separated the people on both sides.

He pressed his palm on the top of Barbara's head under the eyes of everyone, and prayed in a low voice. Soon, the woman's fingers flicked, and a moan came out of her mouth, which was seen and heard by everyone.

"It's a miracle! No, it's a miracle!"

"God bless—"

The gentlemen and women onlookers exclaimed and crossed themselves reverently.

Most of the priesthood of the Baijiao know some medical skills, and the miracle of healing is performed unabashedly even in normal times, and everyone regards this as the grace of the gods.But not all priesthoods are qualified to release miracles. Only middle-level priesthoods are allowed to be taught by high-level priesthoods after proving their beliefs. There are also certain restrictions on the release of miracles. Commonly used weak healing miracles are still available. Nothing is as effective as a shot of sedative, and nothing can directly affect the magical effects of audiovisual aspects.

Therefore, although everyone knows that there are miracles in the church, it is difficult to form a specific impression.

Father Petit was being sought after like a bishop in the crowd at the moment, but Julius could not understand him.

The mage put his hands on his chest: "It doesn't look like he is doing us a favor, but we helped him become a star. Humph—and I feel that his previous smile seemed to be mocking us, or Barbara? I That's what my instinct says anyway."

Clayton strongly disagrees with this view.

"Don't speculate on the nobility of others, and at least he has done us a favor."

After the noise was over, the priest helped Barbara to the place agreed with them, and he didn't make any demands or ask for payment. He just greeted Clayton and Julius and left.

In the alley, Clayton looked at the back of the clergyman in admiration: "Father Petit is really a good man, I think he is a model in the clergy, one day he will be elected as a bishop, and maybe he can be accepted Give the holy name of the Holy See."

Julius' face wrinkled like a bitter melon at the exclamation.

The werewolf praised the character of the priesthood, and it was the first time he had seen such a happy scene.

He changed the subject and said, "Let us listen to what Ms. Barbara said, how did the priest Paddy teach you to cooperate with the performance? It should be the first time you have met, right?"

The person Julius mentioned didn't speak. She had been pressing her hands on her chest blankly from the very beginning, as if she was confirming something. She didn't let go until he asked a question, but she hesitated to speak.

"Miss, talk!"

He urged again and again, before Barbara said incredulously: "I feel like my injury is healed."

This conclusion surprised others.

Clayton and Julius looked at each other, looking at each other.

The miracles of the church come from the light, and those holy powers are inherently incompatible with the power of the dark moon, and the dark moon's curse is already involved in the darkin's essence.

"how can that be?"

Julius stared rudely at Barbara's chest, trying to see through the clothing to understand the wound.

Clayton was less rude, mostly because he didn't think Barbara had a reason to lie.

"So, he really released a miracle for you?" He asked solemnly. If it was true, its influence would be enormous, and the obvious consequence was that he could immediately consider joining the church.

"I think so."

Barbara's expression showed the uneasiness of stepping out from under the gaze of the crowd, but there was a bit of awe and anticipation towards the priest in her green eyes.If the holy power works on the darkin as well, she might be able to reconvert and baptize her and let her life go back to the old rhythm.

Julius finally judged from her reaction that she hadn't lied, but still retained some trust in her ignorance, and he thought of other explanations.

"I think this is just your illusion. The resilience of vampires is beyond ordinary people. Maybe when he arrives, your wounds have already healed, but I dare not stand up and exercise in front of other people, so I have been aware of it. It's not enough."

Healing a serious injury within five or six minutes may sound impossible, but if it is a penetrating wound with a narrow wound and the victim of the injury is a vampire, then the result may not be possible.

Clayton was awakened and changed his judgment.

"This is also a possibility, a possibility with a high probability." This conclusion of Julius is more reliable than going against common sense.

"Is that so?" Barbara's green eyes dimmed again.

"Maybe, but please wait for any attempt later." Clayton took out the map of the parish from his pocket and spread it out on the ground. "Now let's talk about the attack on you."
