Industrial Cthulhu, starting from the island lord

Chapter 95 Nini, you are still too talented
"Cultists?"

"Yes, you are finally back. We have already confronted them. We will not launch an attack without your order."

"What do those cultists look like?"

"They were all wearing red capes, and there were quite a few of them. We've surrounded them, and we're still in a standoff, but no conflict has occurred."

Zeus was delighted. No wonder the Fire Moth was so anxious to drive him back. It turned out that he was being targeted by the Banshees. Ash, you did a good job!
Once they are all arrested, will we still worry about having no source of information?

This Candle Moth dares to summon even the evil god, so it must have a lot of secret knowledge. This is a big profit.

"Where is it? Are there any banshees left at the manor?"

"Yes, Nini is in the manor. They are on the southernmost side of the island, southeast of the volcano."

"I'll be right there! Be careful and try not to engage in direct confrontation. There are several extraordinary beings among them."

"Okay, we have more people than them, so they won't dare to act rashly now."

After closing the conversation with Ash, Zeus immediately ran along the secret passage to the cave under the manor. At the same time, he was not idle either, and called Nini.

When he ran to the water's edge, Nini was already waiting there. They both jumped into the sea and swam quickly towards the direction Ash mentioned.

Nini was obviously full of questions, but she knew that now was not the time to ask, so she just followed without saying a word.

Xiusi found her hesitant expression somewhat funny.

"If you have any questions, please tell me."

"Then let me ask you, Lord, what is your connection to the cultist's corpse?"

"what?"

"His name is Xiu Si, and your name is also Xiu Si. You went to dig up his body, and right after you finished, a group of cultists came out and stole the body. You also happened to lose contact during this time."

Xius' eyes widened when he heard this. He thought Nini wanted to ask about the operation. After all, she always liked to ask questions.

And you've almost figured out the truth?!

We really can't underestimate anyone. These banshees are intelligent creatures, not brainless soldiers. After all, they know too many secrets, and it may only be a matter of time before they piece together the truth.

At that time, should I confess to them?

"So what's your guess?"

Hughes asked tentatively.

".While digging the grave, the cultist Zeus transformed into a corpse and killed Lord Zeus. His soul entered Lord Zeus's body. Coincidentally, his name was also Zeus, so he successfully evaded detection through the symbiotic contract and successfully used the mind link. He even used the symbiotic contract to repair Lord Zeus's wounds."

"As for Ash next to her, huh, she's only loyal to Hughes. She doesn't care which Hughes is inside Hughes' body."

"And now, the cultist Zeus only has one enemy left: the Candlelight Society, who witnessed his burial! He summoned the Banshees, the subordinates of the former lord Zeus, and surrounded Sister Chloe and others who were trying to find the truth. He loudly declared that they were cultists preparing to summon the evil god!"

"How ironic! The minions of the evil god actually declared these devout people who fought for their faith to be traitors! What blasphemy!"

"Fortunately, among the Banshees there is a beautiful and intelligent Nini. She inadvertently deduced the evil plan of the cultist Zeus!"

"No one believes her, and Ash, the only one who knows the truth, is willing to be a lackey of evil. This smart, kind, merciful and beautiful banshee embarks on a single-handed journey to save Caster!"

"how?"

"."

"Hey, why don't you say anything? Give me some comments."

".You should write a novel, seriously. With you as the protagonist, it's much better than the story of this little factory I set up on the island." "I think I have some talent, too."

It's more than just talent. She can observe all of Xiu Si's flaws in such detail and cleverly organize them into completely irrelevant content. Xiu Si feels that it's a pity that Nini doesn't become an author, or a reporter. This ability to spread rumors and take things out of context clearly shows that she has mastered the core technology.

"Actually, I have something I want to ask you. How did you know Chloe was a cultist?"

"I don't know. I was just making it up. Why are you asking?"

"."

"."

"Really?"

"real."

"Did your soul really get replaced by the cultist Zeus?" Nini's eyes became sharp.

"No, I mean Chloe really is a cultist."

In fact, he and the heretic Zeus are the same soul.
"Chloe? A cultist!?" Nini covered her mouth. "How is that possible? Isn't she from the church? Miss Zoe said that the church on land specializes in dealing with cultists, right?"

"It's because I specialize in dealing with cultists that I understand them better. The one who understands you best is always your opponent."

"So that's how it is. They were bewitched and rebelled."

Xius didn't say anything. He was actually a little suspicious about which side Chloe and Keschi were on.

The identities of the two were really mysterious. Before they descended into the body of the worker Zeus, he had never doubted them at all.

Now it seems that Brother Keschi may not be a supernatural being from the Candlelight Society. He is obviously inconsistent with the sequence of investigator-secret keeper.

No, it’s hard to say whether he is a transcendent or a body controlled by Chloe.

But it doesn't matter, they have been surrounded and will soon know the truth.

"arrive."

Xius surfaced, Nini picked him up, held him in her arms and quickly slithered forward.

The speed of Zeus in water is not much different from that of the Banshee, but it is different on land.

Although the banshees are huge in size, their movement speed is not slow at all. They should not be much slower than the armored vehicles when rushing forward.

The key is that they can run at this speed for a long time, and their physical strength seems endless.

After passing through a forest - not really passing through, Nini actually ran through it. She forced her way through, and the low bushes and even trees were squeezed aside and pressed to the ground by her powerful snake tail.

"With your physical strength, exploring space will be a breeze. With flesh magic, I don't think you'll even need a space suit. You can just carry an oxygen tank."

"What is space?"

"Let's talk about it later. I feel like this part of knowledge must be seriously polluted."

"Well, just in time, we're here."

Nini switched to a mind connection and no longer communicated with sound.

Looking at the banshees in the distance and the surrounded cultists, Zeus's face became serious.

"Ash, what's going on?"
