Chapter 831 -513: Found You!
The night was deep, and the whole city seemed to have fallen asleep. The cool autumn breeze made the alleyways in the darkness even more desolate.
The road in this alley was only casually sprinkled with some gravel, with occasional dirty puddles of water, but this was nothing to Lis.
He now possessed Dark Vision, allowing him to see clearly even without light.
Although he appeared to be wandering aimlessly, Lis was constantly using his spiritual power to probe the surroundings, especially the underground areas.
Advanced Earth Element Affinity Expertise allowed his spiritual power to easily penetrate through the soil, with almost no loss.
The lair of that Evil God believer was very likely in some underground secret room.
Judging from the information he had obtained from talking to the Divine Officer of the Suffering God Church earlier, if there was only one Evil God believer, Lis speculated that the believer might have sought power through a Life Sacrifice Ceremony dedicated to the Evil God.
After all, it was just one person. While hiding oneself was fine, trying to stir up a big event in secret was too far-fetched.
Evil God believers might be reckless, but they weren’t stupid.
There was no way they would think of destroying the entire Cui Feng City in a situation where the power contrast with the Kingdom and the Church of the Gods was so enormous.
Where could it be hidden?
Lis wandered idly on the quiet and deserted streets, his spiritual power carefully searching every location around him.
Based on the information he had, there had been recent cases of people going missing. However, perhaps because the Extraordinary Professionals of the official bodies and the church had already noticed and started investigating, the number of missing people had significantly decreased compared to before.
But it hadn’t stopped completely!
This meant that the Evil God believer hadn’t ceased his sacrificial activities. Even in the face of such intensive searching, he had not given up.
This indicated that the Evil God believer causing trouble on Light Street was extremely insane, daring to confront the Divine Officers of the Church of the Gods alone like this.
It also indicated that the Evil God believer had great confidence in his ability to hide his tracks.
The fact was, it had been a week since numerous residents were reported missing on Light Street, and it had been several days since the Suffering God Church had intervened in the investigation.
Besides the two discovered basements where Life Sacrifice Ceremonies had been held, there was no more valuable information.
Even the traces of sacrifices pointing to the Evil God had been wiped clean. This Evil God believer was extremely cautious.
To be so confident in oneself yet careful to erase traces, not wanting the Church of the Gods to discover which Evil God he worshiped…
It seemed the object of his sacrifice was extremely important!
Lis tried to deduce the Evil God believer’s thoughts based on the information he had, and slowly he felt he was getting a sense of the pattern.
There was no other way. He had experienced too many similar incidents in his previous life.
Although he hadn’t heard of such events happening in Cui Feng City in his previous life, he reckoned the style of Evil God believers would be similar.
Lis ran his fingers over the marks left by weather on the surrounding walls, his mind racing.
Most likely, those two discovered basements and the traces of Life Sacrifice Ceremonies were deliberately left by the Evil God believer for the Church of the Gods to find.
Why would he do this?
To divert attention?
If those basements were pre-prepared by the Evil God believer, it meant he was highly organized and well-prepared.
Was it related to that Evil God?
Lis was a bit uncertain and shook his head slightly.
This possibility was too many. He needed to change his direction.
After countless years of confrontation, the Church of the Gods and the Evil God believers actually knew each other quite well.
Under the intensive search by the Suffering God Church, the Evil God believer had remained undiscovered, and was even continuing with his sacrificial ceremonies. His ability to hide was quite strong.
Although Cui Feng City was an important trading hub in the Gordon Kingdom, the Church of the Gods’ power here wouldn’t be significantly stronger because of that.
At least, there would not be any Legendary strength of the Church of the Gods in Cui Feng City.
Similarly, the Evil God believer was likely at the Golden Rank.
If he was stronger, there would be no need to conduct Life Sacrifice Ceremonies in such a secretive manner.
If he was weaker, he couldn’t have hidden from the Golden Rank strength of the Suffering God Church for such a long time.
Even so, it had been quite difficult to remain hidden for this long.
Among many special abilities, some indeed could achieve this.
Space ability, Shadow Power, illusions, and so on.
In this case, the Evil God believer was likely using the two abandoned basements to cover his real hiding method.
If this was the case, it was quite unfortunate!
Lis clapped his hands, feeling spirited.
He was skilled at all these methods.
And he was confident he was stronger than the Evil God believer!
Time to get to work!
…
Inside the secret room,
Brett Costello casually threw two young girls in simple clothing at his feet and sat on the ground carelessly.
In this dark basement, the dirty blood, almost merging with the darkness, quietly flowed on the cold floor. The stench of blood filled the small secret room.
The runes composed of dark gray lines on the walls resembled eyes hidden in the darkness, flickering faintly, emitting a chilling aura.
They seemed to have an intense craving for life and blood, like a hungry beast greedily staring at the two unconscious girls on the floor.
The air was filled with a suffocating malice, emanating from the dirty blood and the dark gray runes, intertwining to form an indescribable horror.
