Chapter 472: A town hovering between life and death


"This kind of decoration is a kind of altar.

It is just as we thought.

This town did not encounter a plague, but something more terrifying than that."

The archbishop hurriedly walked over and knelt down to check the decoration of the statue.

Wang Chu stood behind and watched.

Although the surrounding light was dim, there were so many candles burning here that he could see clearly.

There were several layers of wax on the floor, so people would probably come and light candles from time to time.

But who are they, the residents of the city?

He looked around and saw that no one was around as the sky darkened.

After hearing what the old woman said just now, he didn't see many people all the way to the church.

Many of them were just watching in the room, and near the church square But without housing, they had nowhere to look.

"Archbishop, do you know what kind of altar this is?"

Akara asked.

There are many types of altars.

Just like the altars of the demons in the wilderness, they are very simple.

Wang Chu still remembers that after the battle with the Headless Horseman in Hajar City a year ago, it is said that when the soldiers went to investigate the destroyed town, they also The altar was discovered.

It's just that I have always been unwilling to take care of things, and I didn't pay attention to the results of the investigation at the time, so I didn't know what it was like.

Looking back now, I might as well have taken a look at it, at least to compare whether it was the same.

Using the old woman's description, Wang Chu thought it might be related to those death knights.

Midnight's Children.

Haven't heard from them for a long time.

"Anwenna, what can you feel?"

Wang Chu asked the elf how he felt again.

Anwenna frowned.

Wang Chu watched every change of her expression carefully, the red lips under her delicate face moved, and she also squatted down on the other side.

Wang Chu happened to jump from Rias's shoulder to Anwenna's side.

"Cam, did you find anything too?"

Wang Chu didn't answer Rias's question immediately.

He pushed aside the extinguished candle with his little paws, and a layer of wax stuck to the ground.

Seeing this, Anwenna hurriedly helped to do it together.

The wax and oil were all connected together, and knocking out a little crack would open the whole piece.

Wang Chu saw the runes carved on the ground.

Purple lines surrounded it, still shining faintly in the dark night.

His own power belongs to the power of nature, the source of life.

Wang Chu has never been able to figure out how to perceive other energies.

But I have fought against the Headless Horsemen, so I should be able to feel the power of death.

Even a little bit.

Just when Wang Chu wanted to calm down and check, a passerby called out from afar.

"Grand Master, it seems someone is coming."

Anwenna looked in the direction in the darkness and said, her ears moved deftly, and she immediately stood up, ready for battle.

But when the figure walked into the light, everyone realized that the person was an old woman with a stooped body, or perhaps a young man before.

When she saw everyone standing at the foot of the statue, she was stunned for a moment, and then hurried over.

"What have you done?

Foreigners, you almost destroyed the entire town."

He would cough if his voice raised slightly, but he still waved the cane in his hand resolutely to drive away everyone.

Wang Chu saw Anwenna behind him about to pull out the throwing blade tied to her thigh.

"Don't take action yet, Anwenna."

"You are really guilty."

The old woman knew that she could not defeat anyone, so she waved her crutch a few times, and then immediately went to the candles that were re-arranged under the statue.

What was extinguished is lit again.

He even took out another one from his arms, put it on, and put it in the innermost place.

Looking at all this, Wang Chu now understood who lit these candles.

"I hope your stupidity does not disturb Master Ashaman," she still said to herself.

Several times the crowd wanted to step forward to ask, but Benedictus pushed him back.

He gestured with his hand to take a look first and not to speak out for the time being.

After the old woman lit the candle, she muttered something incomprehensible, and then she slowly stood up and turned to everyone.

"Who are you?

There have been no outsiders in the city for a long time.

Why are you so unruly?"

The voice was old and weak.

Wang Chu looked at her face illuminated by the candlelight.

It was the same as the previous one.

The aging skin was so pale that it made people feel sad.

Gagging.

"We are a passing transport fleet.

Because it is too late, we are going to stay in the town all night."

Since he couldn't say private, he had no choice but to tell the other party the identity mentioned by the archbishop just now.

"Convoy.

Oh, I haven't heard of such a fleet for a long time.

Since it is docked, you should stay on the ship.

This town is not the place for you."

The old woman continued, although her tone was stern, but it seemed No strength.

"If you offend Ashaman, you will be the sinners of the entire town."

The private quickly apologized and smiled.

He has the lowest status here, and of course he takes the lead in everything.

"We have just arrived in the town, so we don't know the rules here.

Sorry, sorry."

Although he kept apologizing, he couldn't tell what he was thinking.

Wang Chu looked at the old woman.

There were actually other gods worshiped here.

Why didn't the one just mention this?

She was also holding a wood carving in her hand, and there were many more on the ground, so just pick one up.

"Sir Ashaman not only helps relieve the pain of the disease, but can also find lost family members.

He is the benefactor of the town.

Loken should be back tonight."

The old woman said, her eyes gleaming with laughter.

Seems very happy.

Loken should be her husband, or a close person like her son.

After saying that, he turned back to the dark street alone.

"Wait, ma'am" Benedictus finally spoke before the other party was about to walk into the darkness.

He called the other party madam, but at his age, he could indeed call her that.

"Why didn't you go search for your family members when they were lost?

Why did you ask Lord Ashaman to search for them?"

He asked the question in his mind.

In fact, this is also a question that Wang Chu wants to know.

The old woman turned her face sideways, her smile solidifying on her face like wax on the ground.

"Because Loken is dead."

After that, he continued to walk into the darkness. for a long time.

No one in the team spoke.

"Grand Master, what does she mean?

Why do dead people come back at night?"

Anwenna thought about it for a long time, and when she said it, she felt a chill down her spine.

The dead can come back.

That is resurrection, but according to Gulianna, there is no complete ability to resurrect people in this world, which would break the balance.

She has also used the ability of resurrection, so Wang Chu has the right to speak.

If it is not a normal resurrection, then it is a resurrection in another form.

The crow flew from the roof to the top of the statue, its bloody eyes seeming to be staring at him.

"Anwenna, let everyone go back to the cabin, now," Wang Chu said hurriedly
