Arknights, Suika's Messenger Journey

"Smell of the sea?" Everyone shook their heads.

At this moment, Brother Aulus, who they thought was dead, stood up shakily.

Seeing his action, Suika clapped her hands and applauded.

"I knew that things in the sea wouldn't die so easily."

"Do you know me?" After standing up, Aulus looked at Suika in confusion.

"No, but I recognize your scent... It wasn't long ago that I slaughtered an entire village of your people."

Everyone was shocked by what Suika said.

Aulus's expression also became serious.

"You're not an inquisitor, why are you doing this thankless task? And you killed an entire village, don't you feel guilty?"

Hearing the other party's words, Suixiang laughed out loud.

"Guilt, betraying humanity, joining those things in the sea, and turning myself into that monstrous appearance. Do you think I would feel guilty about killing them?

As for the Inquisition, arresting you is the business of the Inquisition and Iberia.

I killed you simply because you are human.

Since you have chosen to betray, there is no need to live.

Deep Sea Church...you are a joke in my eyes.

go to hell! "

After saying that, Suixiang suddenly threw a punch. She used the abilities of Oeyamaran and Density and Sparseness in this punch. The wind she blew out was compressed into a small area, instantly destroying all objects in her sight.

Chapter 516: Thorough Treatment

After the punch was thrown, Suixiang did not show any surprise, but walked over with a frown.

Right where Aulus had just stood, a fist-sized hole appeared, extending deep into the ground.

Seeing this, Suixiang snorted coldly.

"He ran pretty fast."

It’s not that she couldn’t chase the other party. On the contrary, if she punched him now, Aulus would definitely be dead.

But this is on the edge of a cliff.

After this punch, the entire canyon would probably collapse.

Such a big commotion would definitely attract the attention of Iberia and Lateran.

She had worked so hard to build a bridge to help the people here avoid being involved with either side, but if she alarmed both sides in order to kill Aulus, all her previous efforts would be in vain.

As for what the consequences would be after the other party left, she was not worried at all.

After all, I have revealed his identity, and no matter how stupid the people here are, they will not continue to associate with him.

And although it seemed that the other party took the punch just now, it definitely didn't feel good.

It will take some time for the injury to heal.

No one can predict what will happen during this period.

Maybe he would come across a black sea urchin while swimming, and then catch it and refine it in an instant with a shot of alchemy.

After returning to the group, Suika finds Bishop and Gerald.

she said

"Your Excellency the Bishop should know about the Deep Sea Church.

During the years of the Great Silence, the Iberian Inquisition has been hunting down these human traitors.

I won't tell the Inquisition about this, but you must remove all traces of this guy from the church.

Otherwise, if the people of the Inquisition discovered that he had stayed here, according to the style of these Iberian inquisitors, I am afraid that everyone in the church would be arrested and interrogated one by one.

Believe me, you don't want to go to the Inquisition's prison; it's a real hell."

Gerald looked at the old bishop

The bishop nodded.

"Suixiang is right. When I rejected Iberia, the Inquisitors were already hunting down the members of the Deep Sea Church.

So, when we get back later, you and Suika will go clean up Aulus's rooms and get rid of all his things."

"It can't be dealt with simply. His things, including everything else that was placed elsewhere, must be thoroughly cleaned out. It would be best if all of them were burned."

Suika reminded.

After all, she was not an inquisitor, and she didn't know whether an inquisitor could figure out these situations based on some things. She was even more worried that if there were any unclean things left in the church, people would eventually be contaminated or even become sea-sick.

Seeing Suika being so cautious, Gerald patted his chest and said that he would do his best to help.

As for Aulus's life and death...

Gerald felt that if it were him, he would have been dead after receiving that punch from Suika.

If Aulus could survive in this situation, I'm afraid he is not an ordinary guy.

On the way back, he asked Suika about information from the outside world.

After all, they are basically isolated from the outside world, and Suixiang can be said to be the first outsider to come here in recent years.

Suika told him what was happening outside. After hearing that the Sarkaz Civil War ended with Theresa's assassination, Gerald looked sad and upset.

The other Sarkaz also showed sad expressions.

Although the reason they fled here was to avoid being involved in the civil war between the two kings, it was a consensus among all the Sarkaz people that Her Highness Theresa was a good person.

Everyone was deeply saddened to hear that she was defeated in such an dishonorable way.

"I was fortunate enough to know some details of the assassination.

Each of those assassins is a well-known top master within the Sarkaz.

For this assassination, they shaved off their horns, removed all features that could prove their identities, and rushed into the Tower of Babel as death squads, perishing together with His Highness..."

Hearing Suika's words, the Sarkaz all shed tears.

They could imagine what kind of complicated and painful emotions those assassins had when they did this.

After talking about the Sarkaz, Suika saw that the team's mood was a little low, so she turned the topic to Iberia.

"Since the Great Silence, Iberia has almost lost contact with the outside world.

But luckily for me, there happened to be several Iberians in my organization in Rhodes Island.

I got some intelligence about Iberia from them..."

Then, Suixiang recounted some of what she knew about what happened in Iberia after the Great Silence, focusing on the relationship between Kaisi and the Deep Sea Church and how the Inquisition had dealt with the Deep Sea Church over the years.

After hearing the Inquisitor's policy of not letting anyone go if they are wrong, everyone felt a little scared.

While chatting, everyone unknowingly saw a group of people returning to the church.

Gerald took Suika straight to Aulus's house.

Unfortunately, there was nothing noteworthy inside.

However, Suika still found a notebook, and this notebook contained some alchemy-related content.

Seeing that Gerald wasn't noticing, Suika secretly hid the diary in her pocket.

After packing up all the things in this room, the two came to each other to apply for the first room for "prayer and work".

Before even entering the door, I smelled the fishy scent of the sea and knew I had come to the right place.

After entering the room, even Gerald frowned when he saw the various messy biological tissues placed everywhere.

There are quite a lot of things here, and many of them are too weird. After knowing how terrifying Hai Si is, he is not confident in letting other people deal with it, but there is no way for the two of them to move all the things out.

After some discussion, Suixiang said that she had a way to burn the place directly without affecting the surroundings.

"Okay, you handle it, and I'll keep an eye on the surroundings."

After the previous series of events, Gerald no longer doubted that Suika could do it.

The two walked out and stood at the door. Under his gaze, Suixiang opened her Ibuki rice wine, took a sip of wine, and then blew a mouthful of flame into the house.

Under the terrifying temperature, in just ten minutes, only a pile of pitch-black ashes remained in the room.

Moreover, under Suika's intentional control, the flames were always concentrated in this room. Even the people next door only felt a little hot, but nothing was ignited by the flames.

After finishing, Suixiang went in and rummaged around for a long time, making sure that everything inside was cleaned up before leaving.

Then the two of them went to several places that Aulus visited most frequently to check.

Only after finding out all the items hidden in the church and burning them all did he finally feel relieved.

"Sui Xiang, is there wine in that gourd?"

Sitting by the fire at night, Lemont looked at Suika's Ibuki and swallowed.

Chapter 517: Farewell Banquet

When they heard Lemont's question, the people around him pricked up their ears.

Suika took a glance and couldn't help laughing secretly. Even Gerald, who was not far away, was chatting casually with the people next to him about the next plan of the hunting team, and looked over here from time to time.

"There is indeed wine in this gourd, but... you can't drink it like this."

After hearing what Suika said, everyone suddenly drooped their ears and became depressed.

Seeing this, Suika said slowly

"What's the matter? You want to drink my wine for free without any snacks or wine glasses?"

Everyone who was extremely disappointed in the last second immediately became more energetic in the next second.

"Appetizers? Make them right away!"

"Wine glasses? I remember there was a set in the kitchen!"

As they talked, everyone went to look for things excitedly.

Ten minutes later, everyone gathered around the fire again.

At this moment, an unknown animal was being roasted on the fire, sizzling with oil.

In front of Suixiang, there was a set of ten wine glasses.

Gerald looked at the wine glass placed in front of Suika and was speechless for a moment.

Even if other people's wine gourds are filled with wine, it looks like they can only hold three or four cups at most.

If you take out all ten cups at once, do you want others to pour all the wine?

Just when he was about to ask someone to take a few cups back, he saw that Suixiang had already opened the wine gourd.

"It's over!" Gerald's eyes went dark.

Others just helped me so much, but now they embarrass me again.

Just as he was thinking quickly about how to make up for the problem if it occurred later, he saw the wine glasses in front of Suika. The first one was full, the second one was full... and the last one was also full!

After doing all this, Suixiang patted the wine gourd with satisfaction, and then started to punch it.

Not to mention Gerald, everyone else also looked at the gourd in Suika's hand in surprise.

After all, the gourd was so big that even a semi-illiterate Sarkaz could see that it couldn't hold so much alcohol.

But so much of it was poured out, how could they not be curious.

"What are you looking at? Drink it. If it's not enough, I'll pour more."

Suixiang looked at everyone around her staring at her, pointed at the wine glass helplessly and said.

Everyone then looked at the glasses filled with wine, but no one took action. Instead, they all looked at Gerald, the leader.

"Ahem...each of you take a sip. Don't drink too much. Leave some for others."

Even though ten wine glasses may not seem like a lot, there are dozens of Sarkaz present. Together with Sakota and others, there are more than a hundred people in the entire church.

Out of ten glasses of wine, each person only got less than one tenth of a glass.

Seeing this, Suixiang looked at him with contempt, then stood up and shouted loudly.
