Then, they both froze almost at the same time.
I saw a man wearing a black robe, holding a long ruby staff, and wearing a crow mask. He was holding a man wearing a black dress, a short leather coat, a small top hat, and holding an unknown animal. A girl with a killer whale doll made of plastic material came over.
Of course, there is nothing surprising about this scene.
The focus is on the men's clothes.
There are two cat ears standing on top of the hood on the head, and half of a cute cat face is printed on the upper edge of the hood. The pockets on both sides are dotted with patterns of cat paws and balls, and there are cat markings on the hem of the robe. Gradient decoration.
Suddenly, the girl stopped.
The man looked down and found that the straps on the side of the girl's shoes were loose. He immediately squatted down naturally and went to help the girl tie the straps.
This action also exposed the man's back.
On his back, there was actually a huge gray cat with a big face printed on it.
Chapter 139 Revenge is too violent and not suitable for the warm family of our holy religion.
Santors Empire, southeast coast.
The dark waves lapped at the shore, splashing with mist.
The sea breeze blew by, and the blue flames swayed in the wind and water, as if they were about to go out at any time, but they could always rekindle after dimming.
On the coast, a large number of dead branches built a strange altar.
There were countless torches placed around the altar, some burning with blue flames, and some not being lit, just standing alone.
The altar itself has a structure that looks like a shrine, but the person sitting in the niche is not a statue or tablet that symbolizes the god, but an old man who is as tall as a dead tree.
The old man wears a wooden mask on his face. Different from ordinary masks, this mask has no eye holes to provide vision. Seven strange marks are carved on it, forming a ring. In the middle of the ring, It is painted with countless eyes.
Those eyes are lifelike and densely packed, not like human eyes, but like indescribable evil, which makes people feel creepy.
The old man has white hair hanging down from the back of his head, his skin is as shriveled as a zombie, and his muscles are like dead wood. He sits cross-legged on the shrine, his hands forming a complex seal. His whole body is motionless, and even his chest does not rise and fall. If it were not for his hands His seal changes from time to time, making people wonder if he is dead.
Suddenly, a gust of sea breeze blew by, and the torches around the shrine flickered, and the light suddenly dimmed a lot.
But after the sea breeze passed, the burning torches regained their previous brightness.
Only a torch three meters away on the right hand side of the old man, whose previously burning flame did not light up again.
As if he noticed this, the old man's hand that was about to form a certain seal stopped in mid-air. Then, his hand seal changed and he formed several different seals in succession.
When the last seal was formed, a sea breeze blew stronger than before. The sea breeze passed through the gaps in the wooden branches of the shrine, making waves of whining sounds like the cry of a siren.

St. Tors Empire, Northeastern Territory, Seventh Holy City, St. Melin Cathedral.
An archbishop wearing a holy crown and a golden robe was standing under the faceless icon, looking up at the icon in front of him.
His face and figure are quite round, his nose is also round, and even his ears and eyebrows are very round. His eyes are so small that they look like they cannot be opened.
This is not because he is fat, but because he is a "Dedu" person.
People of this race all have this chubby appearance. Their round body shape makes their athletic ability much worse than other races, but it also gives them innate magical power that far exceeds that of other races.
Even for races such as the Great Elves, who are known for their magical talents, it is difficult for the total amount of magic in the body to exceed half of theirs with the same strength.
Q group: 5 As for people of this race, I don’t know whether it’s because they are broad-minded and fat, or because of the impression given by their round shape. Most of the time, they give people a sense of joy. A feeling of joy and kindness.
But the archbishop's face was full of sorrow at the moment, and his plump eyebrows were knitted together.
At this moment, a burly knight in golden armor walked into the church, came all the way behind the archbishop, knelt down on one knee, and bowed devoutly.
"Dear Archbishop Saint-Douluo, I wonder why you called me here?" the knight asked.
"Sister Mellens, how long has she been away from her church?" the Dedu Archbishop asked.
"Since the last search for the Arc Sword Lady ended, she left her church, and I haven't received any news of her return yet," the knight said. "The specific date... I can't remember clearly. I hope the archbishop will atone for his sins.”
"It doesn't matter, what I want to ask is not the number of days," the Dedu Archbishop shook his head slightly, "She probably won't be able to come back. Let's find a suitable person to take her place."
"What..." the knight was stunned, "How could it be? Lord St. Melens, she is not..."
"Just now, news came from the Netherworld Branch," said the Archbishop of the Dedu Tribe. "Gayi Ming, who left the empire with Sister Melens some time ago, has been confirmed dead. I received this news. Later, I went to the communication room to see that Melens’ distress crystal was not broken, but I sent a signal to it and received no response.”
"This... with the strength of these two people, how could this happen?" The knight still seemed to be in disbelief, "Is it from the royal family?"
"No, judging from the information coming from the Netherworld Branch, it happened in the Land of Chaos. I don't know what happened," the Dedu Archbishop said helplessly, "I don't know how many times I have said it, it's okay. Don’t go to that place, you just don’t listen… By the way, is there any new development in Loves Hades Valley?”
"According to the recent report from Priest Leshi, the progress is very slow," the knight replied. "Now someone in the Great Holy See seems to be proposing to send that person in, but the higher-ups seem to be afraid that that person will lose control and cause problems. The Black Knife Incident of a hundred years ago will happen again, so there is a high probability that we will not agree..."
"Really... Sigh," the Archbishop of the Dedu tribe sighed, "Then apply to the higher-ups and allocate some more people here. If this continues, all the wandering ghosts in Loves Hades Valley will be beaten. We are at the door of the church."
"Yes," the knight responded, then hesitated and asked, "What about the death of Lord St. Mellens and the Arc Sword Lady..."
"Just leave it alone. It's a chaotic place. The cost of investigating it is too high, and there will be no profit after the investigation is completed. We don't have so much time to waste time on this matter now. Let's find a way to deal with the problem of wandering ghosts first. ," the Dedu Archbishop waved his hand, "That's it, go ahead."
"Yes, I understand," the knight said, bowed, and then exited the church.
As soon as he went out, a blond man dressed as a knight, but with more ordinary armor, immediately came up to him and asked anxiously: "Mr. Cerbery, is there any news about Lord St. Mellens?"
The knight glanced at the man and fell into silence.
Although the helmet covered his expression, the slightly lowered head still gave the man a bad premonition.
The man swallowed, and then spoke again: "You... well, please just say it. I'm mentally prepared."
Hearing this, the knight sighed, and then said: "Lord St. Mellens, she died..."
As soon as these words came out, the man on the side suddenly felt as if he was struck by lightning, and he froze on the spot.
After a long while, he said tremblingly: "No... it's impossible, right? Are you kidding me?"
"I'm not someone who would joke about this kind of thing. Lord St. Mellens died while performing a mission in the Land of Chaos. At the same time, a 'Ming' from the Netherworld Church also died. The Archbishop has decided to send someone to replace her. It's your place, Mr. Yes, I hope you can forgive me," the knight said, patted the man on the shoulder, and then left.
The blond knight was left alone, standing dejectedly in front of the church, kneeling down slowly.
1 Chapter [-] Oh, of course this is all thanks to you, the gang leader!
"thump"!
Lu Lin threw a sugar cube into the coffee.
Stir it together with a spoon, Lu Lin took a sip, smacked his lips, and commented: "Well, it feels like coffee."
"Uh..." The red-haired old gang leader sitting across the table immediately twitched the corner of his mouth and said reluctantly, "Young man, just get used to drinking."
"It's not bad, actually I prefer tea," Lu Lin said with a smile, "Next time, if you are free, you can come to my place and I will make tea for you myself."
"Of course that's good," the red-haired old gang leader nodded, "but today, you'd better tell me what all this is about."
"Well..." Lu Lin's face suddenly turned serious after hearing what the old gang leader said, "It's a long story."
"It's okay, just speak slowly," the Tianri Sect elder sitting aside said: five, four, three, six, five, nine, three, eight, nine.
"Okay," Lu Lin nodded and said, "That's it, I have a problem with the Holy Cult, so they brought two people to fuck me, I found out, and then we fucked him, well, probably so."
"That's it?" The old gang leader was stunned, "That's it?"
"Yeah," Lu Lin nodded, "Yes."
"Is this what you call a long story?" the old master of the Tianri Sect twitched his lips.
"If I explain it in detail, of course it would be a long story," Lu Lin shrugged. "However, some details involve some things that I am not comfortable revealing. In addition, what you should be mainly concerned about is why those two people met. Come here, to put it bluntly, you are here for me."
After hearing Lu Lin's words, the two old men looked at each other.
They all also heard that Lu Lin did not intend to tell them the whole story.
It was right to think about it. Lu Lin had no affiliation with them, so he naturally had no obligation to give them a detailed report.
For the old gang leader, the "honorary city lord", Lu Lin only needed to explain why these two troublemakers came, and that was actually enough.
As for whether he should drive Lu Lin out because of this matter, that is another matter.
Of course, although he has the power to expel Lu Lin, he cannot actually do so.
After all, it was the Holy Cult who came to cause trouble, and Lu Lin solved the trouble himself. If he drove Lu Lin out of the city now, the remaining gangs would definitely make a big fuss about this matter.
At that time, I am afraid that in the mouths of these people, he will become a coward who is afraid of the power of the holy religion, and the reputation of the entire Yanfeng Gang will probably be hit accordingly.
But if he wanted to stop asking questions like this, the old gang leader felt a little uneasy after all.
If he didn't understand why the Holy Cult was going after Lu Lin, he wouldn't be able to figure out whether the other party would send more troublesome people in the future. After all, the people who came today were already difficult to deal with. If the old master hadn't been in charge, he would have panicked. It's too late.
If the other party sends stronger thugs and the old grandmaster is not around then, the trouble will really be big.
The old gang leader was sorting out his words, thinking about the angle from which to ask Lu Lin for information.
Over there, Lu Lin was also sorting out his words.
The old gangster had a plan, and he also had some thoughts in his heart.
First of all, he definitely doesn't want to leave the city.
After this battle, Lu Lin not only killed the tail of the Holy Sect, but also made two powerful allies. He also obtained an important piece of puzzle that could complete the test of the Black Demon Sect and refine the materials necessary for the Howling Demon Spirit—— A living person with advanced strength.
Yes, this refers to none other than the guy dressed as a nun. Although that guy seems to have gone crazy, he is not dead now. He should have been taken to his alchemy room by Silly for "processing" at this moment.
With her, Lu Lin can refine the Howling Demon Spirit. Once the raw materials that can be used to replace the Echo Violet are extracted from the Howling Demon Spirit, it will only be a matter of time to complete the communication potion required by the Black Demon Sect.
Therefore, for Lu Lin now, the best situation is that he can stay in this city, complete the potion with peace of mind, and then continue to complete the hundreds of intermediate alchemy required by his mission, while also accumulating gold coins for himself. and resources.
As the saying goes, it’s easy to enjoy the shade under a big tree. If you want to stay in a local place and stay stable, the best thing is to build a relationship with the local people in power.
Moreover, he did not forget the mission revealed by the White Miko.
She wanted a collaborator who could stand her ground in a chaotic place.
In order to gain a firm foothold, in addition to its own strength, it naturally also needs the support of all forces in the chaotic land.
Now, the highest authority in this independent city and the top leaders of the Tianri Sect, the force behind it, are both here. It would be great if we could win a cooperative relationship between these two people.
Regardless of long-term considerations or short-term, it will be much more convenient for Lu Lin to make money and obtain information here.
Of course, it is not easy to gain connections with such a big force as the Tianri Sect. To find a way, Lu Lin can only start with Jack Zhengyi.
Thinking of this, Lu Lin glanced at Jack Zhengyi, who was standing silently behind the old master. Now he also knew the relationship between this man and the old master. If he used it well, Lu Lin might really be able to find a way to embrace the Tianri Sect. thigh.
But now, Lu Lin's first consideration is how to establish a relationship with the old gang leader.
After all, now is the perfect opportunity.
After sorting out the draft in his mind, Lu Lin cleared his throat.
The two old men looked over immediately.
Lu Lin gave a polite smile to the two of them, and then said: "Two old gentlemen, I am actually thinking about one thing. You said... there is such a powerful person from the Holy Religion lurking in our city, and a The strength of the Dark Beach Walker is not weaker than hers, but it is actually quite dangerous, right?"
Upon hearing this, the two old men were stunned for a moment, but then they seemed to realize something.
"What do you want to say?" the old gang leader asked.
"That's right, I just suddenly felt that this matter may not be what I thought it was. Maybe, they have actually been lurking here for a long time?"
Lu Lin said with a smile.
"Look, maybe they didn't come for me, but maybe they wanted to destroy the entire city?"
"After all, everyone knows the ambitions of the Holy Sect. It is not surprising that they want to invade an independent city-state under the rule of the Tianri Sect."
"And the person who sees through this matter, Q group: five-four-three-six-five-nine-three-eight-nine, may not be me, it may be you, the old gang leader."
"As for the people who solved these two dangerous elements, if they are said to be unidentified outsiders, it is actually quite untrustworthy, isn't it?"
"I think it would be easier for people to believe it if it was announced that the person who killed them was actually specially arranged by two people?"
"You see, Jack Justice, he is a warrior of the Tianri Sect."
"As for me... I can also be your partner, old gang leader, right?"
Chapter 141: Children, it’s time to start refining the living body.
In fact, if possible, Lu Lin doesn't like to negotiate, socialize, and discuss cooperation with these so-called high-level officials.
He is actually not good at these things and feels very tired.
