Priest Augustus set off at Tobesk Station in early autumn, and returned to Tobesk Station on Sunday morning in late autumn. Although Shad knew that Priest Augustus had experienced many dangerous things in Fort Midhill, he encountered no less danger than himself during the Middle Hill incident.
But when Xia De put his hands in his pockets and saw the old man laughing and carrying the suitcase and getting off the train that sprayed steam from the bottom to the sides with the welcome team of the Church of Dawn, he still thought that the priest was in a trance. It's on vacation.
Of course, the priest’s luggage is not just a suitcase. Other large luggage is piled up in the truck compartment and will be sent to the Church of Dawn by a special person.
The weather at the turn of autumn and winter is not bad, but there is still a polluting fog in the city. The chaos on the platform made this scene even more hazy and illusory, but at least Priest Augustus really came back.
A total of 7 old local priests who returned with Priest Augustus belonged to the Church of the Five Gods. Although the exhaustion of the journey could not be concealed on their faces, everyone was very happy to return to Tobesk, the pearl of the north.
"Even the smell of pollution in the air is so friendly."
Priest Augustus even uttered such words, and then choked and coughed. The air pollution level in recent days is indeed outrageous. Although Fort Midhill, which is backed by the mountain, also has a steam industry, the overall level of air quality is far better than that of Tobesk City.
On the low and dark platform where travelers with suitcases were everywhere and the air was filled with a strange smell, the Church of the Five Gods held a very brief welcoming ceremony for the old priests returning home before returning to the church.
Of course Priest Augustus would not follow Shad to No. 6, Place Saint-Andrew, but he still knocked on the door of Shad's house at two o'clock in the afternoon.
"Welcome back, Priest Augustus!"
Xia De said with a smile after opening the door, and the old man outside the door also had a smile on his face:
"Yes, it's better to be Tobesk. I won't go on such a trip again. Oh, your gift."
The gift that Priest Augustus prepared for Shad was a black hat with colorful feathers that were dyed with dyes.
Xia De hugged Mia and led Priest Augustus to the second floor to talk. The tea was prepared ahead of time, and Priest August's first words were a problem:
"Joy Barton and that Ms. Marilyn Handel, have they left Tobesk now?"
"Yes, the last time I saw them was seven days ago in the Tobesk public cemetery."
Xia De replied, the priest nodded, and did not ask them any more:
"While at Castle Midhill I promised you that I would tell you about my wings. Detective, you already knew that those wings belonged to an angel, but perhaps you didn't know that the angel was .…”
"The first angel, the first angel born in the world, the angel of death."
Shad added, indicating that Priest Augustus could take a seat. The priest sat on the short sofa and looked at him in surprise:
"It seems that you know more than I thought. Well, I don't need to introduce too much. Of course I am human, but I can borrow the power of angels...well, very early on Previously, due to an accident, I obtained part of the wreckage of the dead angel."
"wreckage?"
A little surprised, but not particularly surprised. Compared with other possibilities that Shad thought, such as the priest Augustus being an angel, this answer is not particularly outrageous:
"That angel, is dead?"
The priest shook his head and smiled:
"It seems that you don't know everything, otherwise I would think you...Although angels are not the great ones who created them, they also have near-immortal lives and are existences higher than humans and ordinary creatures. Great Some angels left with the ancient gods, and the angel of death left its body in the material world. The body collapsed, and when I was young, I accidentally fused a part of the wreckage, including the wings."
The story of Priest Augustus's youth should be the out-of-control incident of Tobesk's 0-level relic mentioned by the academy. But the priest still did not explain why everyone died, but he not only survived but also gained strength. This should be a secret that priest Augustus is unwilling to tell.
Fortunately, including Xia De, everyone has secrets, so he will not explore too much.
"Then the right arm bone that Joey Barton was implanted by [Truth Society] is..."
Xia De raised his eyebrows.
"Detective, you are very keen, yes. The remains of the angel gave me the power to kill the angel. With this power, I am not only extremely sensitive to death, but also by constantly collecting the remains of other parts, To perfect that power."
The priest stretched out his right hand, and some gray mist danced in his palm.
"Meow~"
Mia frowned instantly, and uttered a low, threatening voice at Priest Augustus, which startled both Shad and Priest Augustus.
"But you don't look like someone who is looking for power. I'm sorry. I mean, once such extremely difficult-to-collect items are assembled, unimaginable things will happen. Priest Augustus, why did you collect angels? Wreckage? I fear that once you collect them all...the angels will...resuscitate within your body."
Outsiders have seen many similar stories.
The priest shook his head:
"Detective, do you think the departed ancient **** will easily return?"
"of course not."
"Then why did the angels who left with them come back so easily?"
Shade was relieved, said the priest, and it was true:
"Then why did you collect these wreckage?"
"They are very dangerous, extremely dangerous. Don't look at me like an ordinary person now. In fact, I have paid a considerable price to suppress the power of the angel of death. This is not the power that should be left in the material world, so I want to seal them by myself. Besides, with the return of this power, I can also know more information, information about those ancient gods."
He glanced at Xia De:
"Aren't you after this knowledge?"
Xia De smiled:
"Yes, I'm also looking for those ancient myths. I learned the stories of the past in the dust of history. This is what I should have done as an investigator of the History Institute. Then, the reports you have searched over the years Are there many dead angel remains?"
The priest shook his head, picked up his teacup and leaned back on the backrest:
"I've been looking for information on this for years, but you can imagine how difficult it was. Besides the original wreckage and the right arm bone that was taken from Joey Barton, I got a small piece of it by accident 12 years ago. Amputated leg bone, got two finger bones three years ago. It's far, far away."
The priest took out his pipe again, but only to wipe it, for he certainly would not smoke at the Shard's. But Xia De noticed that the priest did not mention how many of the wreckages he originally fused.
"If you don't have to worry about the risk of the angel resuscitating on you, I will also help you pay attention to the information about the angel's wreckage."
Xia De then nodded, besides demons and flames, he has another collection item.
"I knew you would help me, Xia De. As the angel of death continues to complete, I can also obtain more knowledge and information. I think these are the most important things compared to power. After all, knowledge is priceless , knowledge is power, and I am willing to share these powers with you. For example, this..."
He took out a small glass bottle from his pocket, Xia De pushed away the cat stretching its neck to sniff lightly, picked up the glass bottle and shook it:
"Holy water?"
"Yes, I made it myself. In terms of effect, it's probably equivalent to No. 3 and No. 4 holy water."
Xia De looked at the priest with some surprise:
"I always thought that only the Church of Nature could make it... Wait, the Church of Nature makes holy water by relics of five angel statues from poet level (level 5) to angel level (level 1), so, The making of holy water has something to do with angels?"
"Yes, the power of angels can make holy water. Of course, this requires knowledge."
The priest smiled and pointed to his head:
"Now, I can make a large amount of No. 4 holy water, and there is almost no additional consumption except for material costs and time. The bottle of holy water in your hand is stronger than No. 4 and weaker than No. 3. It is still a bit laborious to make. But in the future, you You can buy holy water from me, and I only charge you for the materials."
"That's really great~www.mtlnovel.com~Holy water is a strange potion that can expel negative energy, expel curses, detoxify, restore spirit, heal wounds, add sacred effects, etc. Although the No. 4 holy water The effect is far inferior to the two bottles of No. 2 holy water in Shade's drawer, but it is still quite valuable.
"In addition, I also learned to make some strange objects, which are related to angels and death. The most powerful alchemy item 'Death Horn' even has a wide-area instant death effect. However, I will think about these strange objects before I go to the hospital. Try to make it, some materials may be difficult to find in a short time. If you are interested, you can take a look at my potion workshop."
The priest added that it seemed that the amputated arm bone really helped him a lot. Unfortunately, it is impossible for Xia De and the priest to inquire about the origin of the [Truth Society] bone, otherwise they might be able to find more angel remains based on clues.
And the priest Augustus opened up the sale of holy water and special alchemy items to Shad, which also explained the value of the knowledge of those ancient beings. Thinking about it now, Dr. Schneider should also be able to make some alchemy items with demon characteristics, such as the amulet that allows Shade to use demon power in his dreams.
The reason why the doctor seldom mentioned his knowledge to Xia De was obviously because the power of demons could not be easily used. Being discovered by the church to use angel power will not cause trouble, but being discovered by the church to use demon power will really cause big trouble.
