I Am A Priest In The Otherworld

As one of the most notorious curses, since its inception, the people who have been murdered by it have been enough to circle the City of Innocence.

This curse is insidious and hidden. The incubation period is particularly long. It can last as long as a month. It takes time to eliminate its fluctuations and become inaudible. It is difficult to be noticed. The victim himself cannot feel it. At the same time, it has a curse. Some of the common advantages, such as remote control, it is difficult to trace its source after activation, etc., and further strengthen its secrecy.

Among various curses, its secrecy can definitely be ranked in the forefront.

To say that its only weakness is that its power is slightly weaker, and it only caused a cardiac arrest. If the victim's body is strong or has cursed protection items, it may be able to survive; and if it can be treated in time after the attack , There is a chance to rescue people back.

This is the price of stealth performance...

Therefore, it is obviously impossible to use this curse to deal with big people and strong people of all walks of life, but it can be used to deal with ordinary people like George, but it is easy to catch.

"These cultists again, why have they been so rampant during this time?"

"If only a few more skullcrushers were in this city..."

Wendini frowned, said very uncomfortably, and then turned to one of his subordinates and asked:

"I remember the information said that this curse can only be planted after close contact. Can you investigate who the deceased has been in contact with recently?"

"This... is basically impossible. The deceased was a foreman. He had dozens of workers under his staff and had to contact many people every day. The curse had an incubation period of one month. It was impossible to find out.. ."

The subordinate said very embarrassedly.

This incubation period is too long, and it is difficult to find out with the investigative methods of the sheriff.

Wendini put his hope on Gallo again, and asked quickly:

"What do you think?"

Gallo thought for a while, and suddenly recalled the detail that he almost ignored a few days ago--

When he blessed George before, he felt a slight obstacle...

He didn't think much about it at the time, thinking that it was because he hadn't used these low-level magic arts for too long.

But in retrospect, it was very likely that the divine art hit the curse and dispelled it...

In other words, George had been planted with a curse earlier, and it should have been a long time, so that Gallo didn't feel any strangeness.

After being accidentally dispersed, the murderer replanted again, and finally killed George with a curse...

And if it is a curse newly planted, its sorcery fluctuations have not dissipated so quickly, and the secret effect will not be too excessive. At least Gallo is confident that he can detect it, but when he saw George the other night, Gallo Didn't notice the strangeness, which means that the second curse should have been planted yesterday.

So as soon as Gallo entered the door, he immediately felt something was wrong...

In this way, the scope of the investigation can be greatly reduced, and according to neighbors, it seems that George went out in the morning yesterday and never went out again...

Gallo thought to himself, quickly clarified the logic, and quickly stated this important discovery, and asked the sheriffs to investigate with this clue.

Wendini's spirit could not help but be lifted up, could not help but admire:

"Although your usual thoughts are sometimes weird, they are still very reliable when it comes to human lives..."

"Working with you is really the right choice."

After all, she quickly assigned tasks to her men and asked them to ask George's workers and neighbors to find out where he went yesterday.

Gallo watched the sheriff busy, and first performed a soothing magic to send George's soul to rest.

He didn't imitate Messerland's approach this time, but instead used the simplest soothing magic technique for all the bells and whistles.

George had worshipped the goddess and had already planned to join the church. He can be regarded as a prospective believer of the church. Then he should also follow a part of the doctrine and remain humble and low-key, not suitable for such a gorgeous pomp.

With the use of magic, George's soul phantom appeared out of thin air, looking extra peaceful...

It's okay, I will send the murderer to see you soon and let him confess to you...

Gallo said inwardly.

In fact, he noticed a detail before, but he didn't tell Wendini about them.

The murderer was able to plant a curse without knowing it. He obviously has a clear understanding of its performance. He should also know that the curse he just planted will not be so concealed, but he can't wait to start...

This is likely to be a major secret that George has discovered, so that the murderer must quickly kill.

If he can't catch the murderer quickly, he will run away with the secret!

And I remember George said before that he seemed to have undertaken the work of an archaeologist a month ago?

Gallo continued thinking...

Archaeologists have always been one of the favorite disguises of cultists. They often hire people to secretly dig the tomb of the evil **** or build altars in the name of archaeology, and then sacrifice all the blood of the workers afterwards. Similar tragedies have already occurred. It's been many times.

One month this time, it happened to coincide with the incubation period of the curse.

He asked Wendini for the transcript of the investigation and looked at it.

There is a confession from George’s deputy above, mentioning that they had worked for an archaeologist named Sandro before, because the monuments to be excavated are a bit far from the City of Innocence, and the progress has been very slow, and the construction has not yet been completed. , Many people were dragged over there, and George was very worried about it.

Gallo had heard of this Sandro, and he was considered a small famous figure in the city, and he often saw his name in the newspapers.

It’s just that his academic attainments may not be as good as social ones. I haven’t heard of any extraordinary academic achievements he has produced. On the contrary, he often attends various public occasions and mixes his face. It is said that he has a lot of personal relationships with big people in private. dense...

It's difficult for a small sheriff like Wendini to investigate this kind of relationship. George is just a small person. No one except Gallo cares about his life or death...

So this kind of thing, let the skull crusher solve it!

Gallo said to himself, without mentioning it to Wendini.

When the routine work here ended, Wendini hurriedly took people to continue the investigation, while Gallo went back to the church alone and told the old bishop about the matter.

After listening in silence, the old bishop habitually took out the divination equipment, but he quickly reminded him:

"How did the other party say that he is also a person with a face and a face. Wouldn't it be bad for you to go straight there?"

"Don't worry, am I the kind of person who doesn't know the importance?"

Gallo said frankly.
