When the old woman saw that the young priest was willing to help, she immediately congratulated him. First, she thanked him a lot, and then she hurried home to the belongings and quickly handed them over to Renault.


    The sheriffs on one side inevitably criticized Renault''s practice:


    "Reverend Renault, don''t make trouble at this time?"


    "The old man''s grandson has been missing for several days. I''m afraid it has nothing to do with this incident?"


    He is also telling the truth. Cases of missing persons are common in the ghost place of the city of innocence. Not long ago, there was a mysterious event in York town next door that all the people in the whole town disappeared


    Although the innocent city is prosperous on the surface, it has been surging secretly. It has never stopped. No one can control it. Criminals like skull breakers are still at large.


    All countries, sects and forces regard this place as a fragrant steamed bun that will fight for every inch of land. Even the lich, a dead creature, has been coveting this place and wants to add a foot


    No one can tell why the city of innocence is so popular. Maybe only God knows?


    In a word, the magistrates hope Renault will not be distracted by some chores. There is nothing wrong.


    However, Renault has its own insistence:


    "I have a hunch that these two things are related..."


    "There is only one truth. We can''t give up the slightest clue!"


    "If you can, can you inquire about other disappearances here?"


    Although the magistrates thought Renault was a little too sensitive, their immediate superiors spoke and asked them to listen to Renault''s arrangement, so they had to go on asking again.


    As a result, I learned from this inquiry that only now in this village, in the past three months, more than 20 people have been missing, more than the followers of the Maiya sect!


    Moreover, it is said that there are people missing in several villages next door. If you add up these missing people, I''m afraid it will be hundreds!


    However, because these people did not disappear at one time, but continued, the interval was inconsistent, and there was no fixed law, they did not attract much attention and were regarded as accidents.


    After all, these villages are not far from the imperial border, and there are foreign races, roving bandits and cults from time to time; It is also close to the ruins and wasteland. It is occasionally attacked by beasts, Warcraft and even all kinds of Warcraft. Therefore, it is not rare for a person to disappear occasionally.


    However, more than 20 people were missing in half a year. This figure is enough to arouse vigilance. Even the magistrates are aware of this.


    They even suspected that the anonymous letter was sent by a relative of a missing person. He may have realized something wrong earlier and associated it with a cult. After all, it is a cult that causes the most missing people, and it is common for the whole village to believe in a cult. This person should be afraid of being discovered and retaliated by a cult, so he chose the method of anonymous letter.


    Renault quickly asked someone to find the belongings of the missing people, and quickly took the magistrates back to the Maiya church to ask the old bishop to help with divination.


    With the personal belongings of the divination target, the accuracy of divination will be greatly increased.


    The old bishop was busy at once.


    However, divination is still disturbed


    "It seems that this case is really unusual. I used my belongings to help with divination, but I was still disturbed..."


    "But the scope of the final determination has been slightly narrowed..."


    The old bishop looked at the slightly narrowed wreath on the map, and then began to predict the whereabouts of the next missing person.


    He divined a dozen times at a time, and finally narrowed the wreath to a barely acceptable range.


    It is a forest in the northwest outside the city. It is a little far from the original destination village. It is already close to a mountain called "snake pattern". Crossing this mountain range is the mysterious and dangerous wasteland of "God abandoned ruins".


    The road from the city of innocence to those villages basically spread along the outer edge of this forest


    "So it seems that some dangerous demon in the ruins and wasteland came to this forest, lurked down and attacked passers-by?"


    "But it doesn''t have a big appetite. Few people attack each time, so it hasn''t attracted attention..."


    "And lieutenant wendini should have found something wrong and took someone to die..."


    Renault speculated about the whole story, and then said:


    "Anyway, just go and have a look."


    He was ready to start at once.


    The old bishop quickly told:


    "Although I don''t know what means I used, it can interfere with my divination. It must be very dangerous. You must be careful!"


    "And this trip is mainly to find and save people. You need more help. Don''t act alone. Take those sheriffs with you."


    "If you need to do it, be as low-key and secret as possible."


    Renault naturally nodded again and again, responded, quickly called the magistrates and set out again.


    At this time, it was almost dusk, and everyone had been tossing around all day from early morning. Renault was fine, while others were very tired. Now they had to venture into a dangerous forest at night


    But in order to save the lives of his colleagues, no one complained, let alone feared and refused.


    The Sheriff of section 9 is really different from other sheriffs.


    So it took them several hours to reach the area marked by the old bishop near the early morning. It was already deep in the woods. Except Renault''s little donkey, other people''s horses couldn''t get in at all,


    There was a dead silence around, even the sound of insects could not be heard, and the sky was not very good tonight. There was no moon in the sky, so we had to rely on torches to provide some weak lighting, which looked gloomy and terrible


    If ordinary people come to such a place, they will be too afraid to walk.


    But these magistrates are not afraid at all. They are still looking forward to drilling out some powerful demon and fighting it for 300 rounds!


    At the same time, I didn''t feel tired, but I felt full of spirit. I wanted to run wildly in the woods


    They even had the energy to call out wendini''s name:


    "Lieutenant! Lieutenant, are you there?"


    "Lieutenant, come out quickly! We won''t laugh at you anymore because you don''t have a boyfriend!"


    "Lieutenant, marry me! If you don''t agree, it''s your default!"


    Of course, this is the credit of divine skill. The third-order divine skill of the asylum department is durable and fanatical.


    Renault actually wanted to use those heroic prayers and hymns of courage that could not be used without authorization, but the old Bishop said to keep a low profile and could only regret to choose these simple divinities.
