Oops, I became the witch's substitute

Fili suddenly realized that no one wanted to play with her, so she quietly disappeared and went over to eat melon.

The hero Hodge really has a bad style. The three heroes take turns on duty at the Star Beast side. Today, when he was on break, he played poker with his teammates with whom he had a good relationship all night in the room. He didn't care when Alex knocked on the door. He only got up lazily after Alex kicked the door open, but he didn't even put on his clothes.

The young hero Hodge pushed away the woman who was hugging him and looked at Alex indifferently: "This is really unbearable. I always thought you pretended to be so graceful. Now, in order to suppress the newcomers, have you even lost your last bit of grace?"

Alex said calmly, "Your teammate Coles just died, and you're doing this?"

Hotch looked impatient: "Come on, you've only known her for a few days, you're not familiar with her, and she's a very difficult woman to deal with."

"Now the clues of the investigation point to you. Do you want to surrender and accept investigation, or do you want me to take you back for examination?" After Alex finished speaking, he began to explain the recent investigation and accurately pointed the finger at Hodge, as if he had already confirmed that Hodge was the murderer.

"What! What nonsense are you talking about!" Hodge was immediately angry, "Are you trying to dump dirty water on me?"

Alex was about to say something when a transcendent divine power suddenly surged outside the house, gathering into a torrent and rushing straight towards it, destroying the house and accurately targeting Hodge.

But who among the people present is weak? Alex instantly cut off the holy light, and Hodge also hugged the woman on the bed to show a barrier.

The attack dispersed, alarms rang throughout the camp, and members of the Inquisition appeared fully armed and surrounded Alex.

"Alex, are you trying to use Coles' death to eliminate dissidents? Has the cathedral fallen to this level?!"

"you……"

Alex slowly drew his sword. He could see that these inquisitors were already prepared.

"Stop it." A very calm voice came from Hodge's mouth. "I think I understand what's going on. Even if Coles dies, he will cause trouble for others."

He stood up, picked up the holy sword on the ground, pulled it out slightly to look at the blade, then quickly closed it and threw it together with the scabbard at Alex's feet.

“I accept the review.”

"Master Hodge! This is a trap!"

"Be quiet, be quiet. Just accept the investigation. This is a trap after all." Hodge said, looking around at the inquisitors who were in doubt. "When you get to the mountain, there will always be a way out."

If the hero doesn't take action, the judges around him won't dare to take action at all.

In fact, after Hodge was taken away, he was not made to feel difficult. He was given a separate room and was not even handcuffed. There were just people who came to talk to him in turns.

However, he did cause dislike in other places, and many people did not have a good impression of him. After all, the sect generally abides by the rules and regulations.

In the interrogation room, Hodge lay on a chair with his legs on the table, and he felt relaxed. "So what? How many days do you plan to lock me up? It's not good for the Star Beast to be supported by an old senior, right?"

Alex buried his head in writing. "Now there is some evidence pointing to you, or you two, for Coles's death."

Hodge was in a state of panic: "It wasn't me. That woman was so noble. She was pretty, but she was a complete post-marriageist. I was just greedy for money, lustful, alcoholic, power-hungry, and a bully."

Alex looked up. "If you were framed, do you suspect anyone?"

Hodge spread his hands: "No, I haven't thought about this question at all, but I guess you have collected a lot of evidence pointing to me, right?"

Alex turned the text he had just written, pushed it in front of Hotch and spread it out: "Then I want to make a deal with you."

Hodge became interested, and after reading it, he looked surprised: "Well... you really don't want to frame me?"

Alex was sincere: "Kors died a tragic death. She was treated inhumanely during her lifetime. Her body was dismembered and discarded after her death. Her blood was squeezed out. Her eyes, brain, heart, liver..."

Hodge was silent for a moment and scratched the back of his head. "Ah, such a beautiful girl died just like that. Life is unpredictable. When I saw her, I was thinking about how to trick her into bed, but she was gone in the blink of an eye. Hey, don't look at me like that. I'm a hero. It's not illegal to eat, drink, gamble and whore while saving the world, right?"

Alex asked seriously, "You still gamble?"

Anyway, the two finally reached some kind of agreement.

Fili secretly stood at the door and saw Alex coming out. She wanted to leave but was stopped.

Alex had discovered her last time, but this time Fili observed carefully and found that Alex was not looking at her, he just discovered her.

Alex stood at the door, as if he had made up his mind: "Sir Fili, the remaining matters are the internal affairs of the church. You can choose to travel around for a few days and don't interfere anymore."

Fili did not answer immediately, but moved to the side, thought carefully, and then began to clear her mind.

Later, Alex said thank you and left.

Fili squinted her eyes, realizing that Alex might have the ability to listen to heart sounds. It was different from mind reading, but more like a perception ability, discovering the "existence" of the surrounding environment.

Well, another patch has been applied, and the Power of Deception has been updated to Ver101.09.

There are so many strange abilities in this world, just like even the most invincible Stand user can encounter his natural enemy.

But Fili didn't plan to go back just like that. She was curious about the inquisition in the sect. God knows what these people were judging every day.

A few days later, Hodge was nominally detained and put into a cell. This was actually a very serious matter. When a brave man was put into a cell, even if he was proven innocent later, people would still think that this brave man was unreliable.

But he himself doesn't care about reputation.

Fili had been eating watermelon these days, and while eating she discovered that she was being monitored. The reason was that she was really planning to go out to see the scenery and observe the terrain nearby, but she was followed as soon as she left the base. After reverse investigation, she found that it was someone from the Inquisition again.

Not knowing what the other party was trying to do, Fili deliberately went to a remote place to pick mushrooms. As soon as she squatted down, the people from the Inquisition attacked her.

Fili clapped her hands and shook her head silently in her heart. It was so old-fashioned, too old-fashioned. But after a little thought, she realized that the Inquisition were also members of a sect after all, and they were all of the same blood. It would not be a good idea for her to kill them directly, so she turned around decisively.

"Who, who are you?" Panicked.

"Return the power to our God!" His face was full of fanaticism.

The long sword pierced Fili's shoulder, pinning her to the ground. Fili then used magic blast to knock the assassin away and stood up in panic.

"Help, help!" He continued to panic.

“?” Something feels wrong, never mind!

At this moment, there seemed to be a subtle change in his cognition, but the assassin didn't care about that. There was still poison in his teeth, and he was ready to die at Fili's hands.

But what about Fili? This great witch who had pierced through the body of the star beast, just like the frightened little girl, stood up without even drawing her sword and ran away.

Not only did Fili run away, she also cut her body with a dagger while running away. The assassin from the Inquisition chased her halfway, and then she didn't know whether to stop chasing her or not.

This area is a sect's military base, and the people around can sense the slightest fluctuation of magical energy. The sentinel quickly discovered the injured Fili and also saw the assassin from the Inquisition.

The sect soldiers nearby all knew Fili, and their scalps tingled: "What are you doing!"

The one you are chasing is not the witch, but Miriam's messenger!

Even if the opponent is a witch, can you kill her where no one can see?

The situation suddenly turned into Fili running in front and the assassin chasing behind, and the nearby guards hurried over to stop them.

"I discovered that the witch was trying to use an evil ritual!" But the assassin completely lost control and forgot that he was wearing the skin of the Inquisition when he committed the crime.

Jiuwu Ling Yi Ba Ling Jiu Another

Seeing that the assassination was blocked and the guards had surrounded him, the assassin secretly hated him and gritted his teeth. Suddenly he realized something was wrong and covered his throat, but the poison had already broken and he could only fall straight to the ground.

The sect guards were stunned and hurried to find the priest. Soon a priest-warrior appeared to treat Fili and apologize, while the others surrounded the inquisitor to investigate.

An expedition knight came over and saw this funny scene: "What happened?"

The guards on the scene didn't know what to say: "This man... failed to attack the witch and committed suicide out of fear of punishment."

The onlookers said: "These guys are too crazy."

The expedition knight glanced at Fili and said, "Sir Fili, can you explain?"

Fili pulled out the sword and stopped pretending. Magical energy emanated from her body, and the wounds she had just healed instantly, leaving only her clothes in tatters. "I was taking a walk nearby, preparing to look for mushrooms, when I was suddenly attacked by an assassin. It's that simple. I'm telling you, I was kind enough to help you investigate, but you sent someone to assassinate me?"

The expedition knight looked at the assassin's body and then at Fili. He didn't doubt that Fili had done something and then lied. There were too many witnesses at the scene and he also knew about the Inquisition. A quick inspection would reveal the poison in the extremist's mouth.

First a saint died, and then the witch envoy was assassinated. Will there be any more troublesome things happening in the fight for star beasts?

"What's going on! Fili! What's wrong with you!?"

Everyone heard a voice, and then a figure flashed, and a ball of water pounced on Fili and turned into a human form.

The water priestess suddenly appeared and hugged Fili to examine her from head to toe.

"Where are you injured? Does it still hurt? Why did you end up here? Did the church army hurt you? Should I kill them all?"

"…Why are you here?"

Fili's smile froze a little.

"Because we are investigating the earth veins. Didn't they say before that the magic power here is abnormal? My friends and I are investigating the reason why the star beasts awakened."

friend?

Fili couldn't help but look around, and the Expedition Knight couldn't help but look around as well.

Elf friends? More than one? When things got to this point, the expedition knight rubbed his stomach and felt a stomachache.

Chapter 100: False God? Present God?

Why did the Arians hate witches? It's a historical problem. It's all my fault when I was young.

What is the relationship between Arianism and the elves? Not too salty or too bland, just the right taste.

How about Arian connections? Know the divine creatures, but not familiar with them.

Elves only interact with people with whom they are destined to interact. From the perspective of ordinary people, they are rather neurotic. For example, the water priestess is very strange. She is holding Fili tightly and staring at the members of the sect fiercely like she is protecting her own child.

The Water Witch waved her fist and said, "Do you believe that we can split you 70-30? I will call three people to split you in 7 seconds?"

The expedition knight opened his mouth, wanting to be tough, but thinking of the other party's strength and contribution in the fight against Bahamut, he immediately gave up: "Sir Elf, I think you misunderstood. The one who hurt Lady Fili is not the same as us... Yes."

Fili tried her best to get the water priestess to open her mind: "We have dealt with things here, let's go to the rest area first."

As for why the Water Priestess showed up, it was actually because she accepted the request of the present god Arius. She didn't want to come at first, but she came when she heard that Fili was coming too.

It just so happened that the Water Priestess and two other friends needed to recuperate from their injuries, so they held a Friendship Party to drink tea, chat, and relax.

Since the water priestess was indeed not normal, Fili couldn't stand her enthusiasm. Fortunately, this was just a false clone... clone... But the clone was so effective that all the body's perception feedback was very real.

Sometimes Fili felt that her innate clone was too perfect.

Now that Fili is protected by the elves, the sect doesn't want to care about her anymore and lets the witch have her fun. They focus on studying the assassin who just died.

The assassin's death was strange and cowardly. After the expedition knight carefully examined the body, he exclaimed and found a clue.

Put yourself in their shoes. Would a normal person do such a stupid thing?

Judging from Fili's reaction, she openly admitted that she was just pretending to be covered in blood, just to lure the assassin here for everyone to see. The assassin should also realize that the plan has been exposed, and in this case he should give up the mission.

But in the end, the assassin not only did not give up, but also bit the poison in a very emotional state, as if he was stimulated by something. Not only did he die in vain, but the conflict also became public.

Thinking of this, the expedition knight made a note of Fili in his heart: "Maybe there is some kind of spiritual ability."

The assassin's death also shocked the Inquisition. Are the people they trained so stupid? Did Fili curse him with "Hey, you thief" or something? He kept chasing him and committed suicide in public.

……

Somewhere, in front of a black-winged goddess statue, the chief judge of the Arian sect was kneeling in front of a person: "I never thought that Hodge would choose to give up resistance, and the assassin sent to provoke the witch was used instead. We underestimated the witch."

"The deceitful witch Fili easily made the experienced judge fall into hallucinations and become fanatical. Her appearance is an unpredictable variable."

"Do you want to get rid of her?"

"Do not."

The high priest, wearing a white robe with gold edges and exuding a holy aura, looked at the map silently: "This country is too content with the status quo and has forgotten our past glory. It's sad to say that we need a real god. When the goddess dances and descends from the sky, everything will be solved."

He walked slowly to the statue of the black-winged goddess and picked up a golden diamond-shaped crystal from the statue's hand. When he took the crystal, dozens of cracks appeared on the surface of the goddess statue, and blood slowly seeped out, like a weeping statue.

"The timing is right, there are many variables, and too many lives will be sacrificed next."

"High Priest, everything depends on human effort! Please give the order!"

"Then let's get started."

The golden crystal exudes amazing divine power. If the god Arius were here, he would definitely have a headache.

Because this is basically a godhead that is a collection of faiths. What’s even more terrifying is that it is an artificial godhead created by human technology and is extremely unstable.

……

Back to Fili, they came to the forest, used vines and flowers to make tables and chairs, used magical flowers to make teacups, and used the collected dew to make tea.

"Let me introduce my friends to you today. They are..." The Water Priestess suddenly emphasized, "The Hero of the Sky, Sylph, and the Demon God of the Earth, Fukai!"

Fili's hands shook and she almost dropped the teacup. Although she hadn't seen the other elves yet, the grand introduction had already made her feel a little confused.

"Oh, come to think of it, I miss you so much, Fili. The days without you are so lonely. No one sings and dances with me." After the water priestess started talking, she really started talking, and it was endless, like nonsense.

Fili didn't buy it: "How did you live before? Were you dying of loneliness?"
