It is impossible for the girl to find the evil god in the textbook

As long as they saw Ulysses Philip's huge amount of experimental records, and Weier who showed abnormal appetite and hunger in an out-of-control state, they could basically guess their fate.

Ella discovered that there were very few ashes left in the house, which did not match the number of bones lost in the cemetery robbery.

So this further proves that leaving the information was Philip's original intention. He had enough time to prepare to take away the ashes, but he had no intention of destroying the experimental records.

After selecting some information she thought was important, Ella summoned her messenger Beatrice.

She didn't know where the town was located, so she just recorded the coordinates she sent with digital graphics.According to Ella's calculations, this place should be hundreds of miles north of Paris.

"This is the address of a small town where all residents were wiped out due to mysterious incidents. Preliminary estimates suggest that the number of victims is over a hundred, and it is related to the Montreuil corpse robbery——"

She thought for a while, and added at the end of the sentence:

"The culprits in the body-snatching case are Saintess Val Farmigne of the Albion Brotherhood and her teacher Ulysses Phillips. If you don't know their names, please send the letter to the highest-ranking contact immediately. or report to headquarters."

After writing the brief content and coordinate graphics, Ella asked Beatrice to hand the letter to Miss Detective Melanie. She should immediately contact the executor of the city near the coordinates for follow-up processing.

Even though Kleist was hostile to her, Philip and his disciples were still the common enemy of both sides, and no one who still claimed to be the executor would turn a blind eye to their actions.

After completing these, she immediately opened the light door and returned to the Montreuil Cemetery.

The flames on the wooden house had been extinguished because the cemetery's location in the northern suburbs of Paris is quite remote and there are not many things in the cemetery that can be ignited, so it was burned before it was even noticed by the city's fire brigade. extinguished. ⑴

Ling immediately greeted him,

"How are you over there?"

Ella shook her head.

"Faminie was seriously injured, and there is a high probability that she will die. But Philip avoided the fight and took her away before I arrived... That person cleaned up the traces, I can't help it Keep tracking."

"How about you, have you found Professor Dmitry?"

To be honest, Ling's expression made Ella feel a little uneasy.

The short-haired girl looked a little flustered.

"I couldn't find the old man...but there was no body of him under that wooden house. After all, he was a great alchemist of the same generation as Kleist, so he shouldn't die so easily, right?"

"Of course I don't die so easily!"

-

Before the words were finished, another voice came from a distance, and Dmitry Dalton, who was carrying an oil lamp, appeared outside the cemetery with the old dog William in his other hand.

This made Ella and Ling breathe a sigh of relief at the same time.

Dmitry walked over staggeringly, blushing and spitting out a mouthful of alcohol.

Seeing the charred wooden house in front of him, the corners of the old man's mouth twitched a few times, and his sagging skin trembled.

"Fortunately...the things that were burned were not very valuable. I moved most of my property to other places in advance."

From what he said, the old alchemist seemed to have sensed the danger in advance, and when Val Farmigne appeared in the Montreuil Cemetery, he slipped away to drink in a crowded and safe place in the city.

It should be said that Dmitri is worthy of being a wizard of the same generation as the principal or Philip. Even though he has no actual combat ability, the keen spiritual intuition of the legendary wizard is perfectly reflected in him.

Such a surprise attack only caused him to lose a set of instruments, furniture, and other sundries that were not easy to carry, including the alchemy table. These things together would not cost a few hundred francs.

"Fortunately, the double I prepared for myself fooled her."

Dmitri couldn't help but click his tongue as he observed the remaining traces on the ground.He said that he also made a body exactly like his own and placed it on the bed of the wooden house.

Ling looked around suspiciously,

"But I didn't find any charred figures..."

Thinking of the weird look that Weier Famini showed after losing control, the former's expression suddenly became quite weird.

"Did she eat it?"

Indeed, nothing would be left.

This train of thought made Ling recall more things, which was the first time she met Weier at Mary Bridge before Ella came.

On that day, more than a dozen local wizards disappeared or died on Mary Bridge. The blame was placed on Ella at that time. Now it seems that those missing people most likely got into Weier's stomach.

Thinking of the days when he lived or acted together with the other party, Ling suddenly felt nauseated, and only recovered after being patted on the back by Ella.

she asked aloud:

"What the hell is that girl? She's like a Nodland Wendigo!"

Ella's knowledge of mysticism was completely incomprehensible. She could easily tell that the other party was not a dangerous creature disguised as a human, nor was it a parasitic life like a Wendigo.

This is not to say that the personality of the silver-haired girl is not high enough, but that she has never been exposed to knowledge in related fields.

Val Farmigne is undoubtedly just a human being, but why does she show such an extremely abnormal posture?

But after listening to Ella and Ling's description, the old alchemist touched his chin thoughtfully.

"If it's what you say it is, the child is most likely a 'banshee'. "

"The banshee?"

It is a female monster in Irish mythology. It is said that it will appear in the form of a young woman, and that the family who hears the cry of the banshee will suffer misfortune.

Neither Ella nor Ling had seen the name of the Banshee in Kraft's album of dangerous creatures. It was probably just a strange story spread among the people.

"She's human, not some strange dangerous creature."

Ella shook her head in denial. With her current ability, she still wouldn't be wrong about this.

"Who said the banshee is a monster?"

The old man did not rush to explain, but asked back.

"This......"

Ella didn't say anything more, but lowered her head and quietly waited for the old man to explain. This attitude made Dmitry very satisfied.

"Serena Williams, and the little lunatics of the Mephisto family, have you never heard of the word banshee? Of course, the current Kraft is likely to change to a better-sounding, less ominous one." What's more, since the teleportation points established by the executors are all over the world, this poor guy rarely appears."

"Of course they are human beings, and they are essentially the same kind of people as us—the "Banshee" is the blood wizard, a blood that has been out of control since the moment it was born because of a weak spirit or a physical defect. wizard! "

"Usually, their out-of-control power will directly kill all humans in the delivery room, including themselves... This is also the origin of the Irish legend."

The kerosene lamp in Dmitry's hand flickered slightly, only illuminating a small area in the dim cemetery. This dim yellow light did not make people feel warm but more gloomy.

"As I said, as the Executor's contact points spread all over the world, the incidence of Banshee incidents has become less and less. These fetuses will escape out of control before they are fully born. It is not difficult to find out the magic power, as long as the preparations are done in advance, they can still be born healthy."

"You mean Val Farmigne was out of control at birth?"

Ling felt a little unbelievable.

The chef who usually shows little abnormality, and the blond girl with a sweet smile are always out of control?

"Then how could she survive today?"

The old alchemist shook his head,

"I don't understand either. Most banshees die when they are born. A small number of them will survive for a while, but this usually does not exceed half a year."

"We all know that there may be three different stages of performance of the Holy Blood wizard after losing control. The first is a personality change. They will become emotionless, cold, cruel and neurotic. Your respected Kleist Maybe the professor is at this stage."

"This kind of nervousness will make them slowly go crazy, ruthlessly use their own magic power to destroy or take various illogical actions. This will make them often in a state of lack of magic power, and the body will appear obviously according to its own magic power characteristics. mutation!"

"People who are born out of control are generally in the so-called second stage. The lack of magic power is a fatal thing for babies themselves. The obviously mutated organs may also destroy their already fragile bodies and directly lead to death... the final The stage is complete alienation, as you know, turning into a pool of rotten meat or being torn apart by the awakened monster in the body are common endings."

Ella pondered Dmitry's words and had a vague but creepy guess.

The out-of-control people in the second stage need to replenish their magic power so as not to fall into a state of lack of magic power. Only in this way can they survive for a long time.

Generally speaking, it is almost impossible for newborn babies to do this, they are basically not aware of this.This is also the reason why no "banshee" could grow smoothly before.

Unless... the act of replenishing magic power is not active, but passive.

The girl recalled the ability shown by Veil Famini. She was able to create mouthparts and fangs hidden in the shadows, swallowing flesh and blood and converting them into her own power.

-

In a delivery room filled with sweet blood in the past, an innocent baby began to cry for the first time in the world.

But in the empty room, people can only respond to her in another way.

Obedient to her instinctive hunger, Weier fused everything that once loved her into one, and transformed it into food that lasted her life.

That's why she was able to survive.

Chapter 21 The Same Kind of People

Looking at Ella who frowned and fell silent, Ling put his hands on her shoulders.

"Think she's a little pitiful?"

Ella nodded but immediately shook her head.

"There are poor people everywhere...the people who were eaten by her, and the people who died in the land of Nod. I am not qualified to forgive Weier on behalf of those people, no matter if it is for me Whether it’s personal animosity or the position we’re in, I don’t regret my decision.”

"So...even if she doesn't die this time, I will kill her again the next time we meet."

Ling seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, but immediately showed a puzzled expression.

"I'm relieved if you think so, but... I still find it strange that if Val Farmigne continues to hide, we may not be able to find her in a short time."

She walked in a small circle, tilted her head and asked:

"But why did she attack the old man at this time? She should have been to the cemetery once before, but she only stole some ashes. If she wanted to do something to the old man, why didn't she act before we floated up ? That way she won't almost die here."

Dmitri turned over the ruins of the wooden house, trying to find anything that could be salvaged.But it didn't take long for him to give up on this, and he just sat down on a piece of charred wooden beams and shook his head.

"It's easy to guess..."

The old man's voice seemed weak.

"That girl should have stayed in this city to find the remains of the filthy blood. No matter what their purpose behind this is, this is a fact. So just like what you said just now, she and her men went to Cemeteries and catacombs."

Following this train of thought, the old man continued.
