Miss Witch's Speed Run Manual
Page 101
The people of Deton Manor began to count the losses, liquidate the traitors, and investigate the identities of every cultist.
The people of the Savior Goddess Church focused on investigating the Holy Coming Sect.
Not only did they find a lot of spiritual notes of the cultists, but most importantly, they found the spiritual notes of Kitty, the person in charge of this stronghold, as well as her letter that seemed to have not been sent yet.
The letter described in detail how a cultist named Georgene under Kitty encountered a cult bishop.
The letter clearly stated the time when the bishop would come, and this was also the time when the commotion occurred at Deton Manor. They naturally linked the two points together, believing that all this was the work of the bishop.
According to the "missionary" Julis, she clearly felt the arrival of the servant of God. It was a feeling that was almost from the same lineage, intimate yet terrifying.
The intimacy comes from the fact that His breath is warm and pure, while the fear comes from the fact that this was not summoned by the Savior Goddess Cult.
Julis's faith seemed to have been slightly shaken by this, and she was recovering with the help of Bishop Hugh, while the others were fully engaged in investigating the identity of the Holy Adventist bishop.
Almost all the mummies have been verified by the Redemption Society, but none of them meet the characteristics of Kitty and the third-level "Glory Bishop". Even Georgeni's body is nowhere to be found.
They even searched the skin scraps and dried blood on the ground, but still found nothing.
It is very likely that the bishop has already left with the descended servant of God.
In the end, Xio was forced to use the forbidden technique of the church to pass through the blood clots of the cultists and perform a fragmented restoration of the situation at that time.
It was this restoration that made Xio see a horrifying fact.
That was the sacrificial ceremony, and it really worked.
Xio saw the illusory servant of God, and the bishop, whose face he could not see clearly, knelt on the ground in excitement, tears streaming down his face. The picture was frozen at this moment.
However, they visited everyone who was at Deton Manor at the time and found no trace of the bishop. Even if they stayed here to investigate, they could not find out who that person was - he was recognized directly when he entered Deton Manor and walked in without using a membership card.
And the memories of those who have seen his appearance have been erased.
Now, apart from knowing that the bishop is a man and a third-level "Glow Bishop", no other information has been leaked.
The clue ends here.
During this period, they also captured several members of the Holy Advent sect who had infiltrated the investigation team, tortured them severely, and even used brainwashing methods on them, but they got a fact that made them even more incredible.
The Holy Advent Sect is also investigating what is going on.
They also had no idea what had happened at Deton Manor. Even the information known by the Holy Advent Sect might not be as much as that known by the Savior Goddess Sect.
This summoning was a spontaneous act of the bishop in private!
Now, the investigation has become a race against time.
The Savior Goddess Church must capture the "Glory Bishop" faster than the Holy Advent Sect before the Holy Advent Sect can react, and snatch the summoning ceremony and the servant from his hands.
This is why the Savior Goddess Cult continues to send people here to investigate.
"Oh……"
Ciel nodded slightly.
It turns out that the Savior Goddess Church is stuck here... But they probably won't be able to find the whereabouts of the bishop in this lifetime.
Because the bishop himself didn't know how the sacrifice ceremony began, and he was eaten and absorbed by the servants of God not long after, and no body was left.
The servant of God descended using Kitty's corpse, and now it has sealed itself on Amy's back. Amy is under the protection of Avina, so the Savior Goddess will never be able to find out the truth in this lifetime.
The letter that Kitty left to exonerate herself unexpectedly became false evidence that misled the investigation, allowing Charles to completely get rid of this matter.
As for the Savior Goddess Church and Xio, he didn't need to worry about them... They didn't even notice him, so how could they let him suffer such a misfortune?
"Where are the people from the Deton Group? Why have they been investigating here for so long? Have they made any progress?"
Ciel asked.
"Uh……"
The woman glanced at Charles cautiously and said hesitantly, "I heard that over in Ansu, the people from the Deton Group are using the Holy Advent Sect as an excuse to start a large-scale internal purge..."
"If it was just about documenting the incident and determining the damage, it would have been over two weeks ago. We don't really know what they've been searching for down there. They've practically pried open every brick and searched..."
Hearing this, Charles nodded. It seemed that the "ascetic monk" opposite didn't know any more of the truth. If he wanted to know more, he would probably have to rely on his own investigation.
"it is good."
Ciel nodded and casually asked, "Is Priest Julis still at the Good Night Inn?"
"No, Your Excellency the Inquisitor, the dehydration infection has been completely eradicated some time ago. Priest Julis and Bishop Xi have returned to the Bell Tower Church."
The woman spoke.
"Well, you guys continue investigating."
Charles stood up and walked towards the door. When he passed the "ascetic monk", he reached out and patted her shoulder, which scared her.
After Charles left the room and disappeared from view, the two waiters looked at the dumbstruck "ascetic monk" and asked cautiously, "Priest, who is..."
"Yes...it must be the Inquisition."
The woman nodded, took a deep breath, took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from her forehead.
“It feels so…”
"Shut up and stop talking,"
The woman raised her hand, interrupting the young man and saying, "Don't talk about the Inquisition behind their backs."
The woman slowly breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the two men start checking every book again.
It was normal that they were still young and had not yet been exposed to the more internal secrets and did not know how terrifying the Inquisition was.
They are all sword-bearers of the church, with their swords pointed not only at the outside world, but also at the church itself. Interrogation, torture and killing are the strengths of the Inquisition. Each one of them is like a fanatic, and they will never change what they have determined in their hearts, and they are very prone to extremes.
So even if you are just talking to them, you have to be extremely careful to avoid being accused and taken away for investigation.
After calming down, the woman started working again.
The group had no doubt about the authenticity of the Inquisitor's identity, because the girl looked as awe-inspiring as the other Inquisitors, and the information she casually uttered about the bishop and the high priest was convincing enough.
Even if she was not very aware of some changes in Ansu, it was quite normal. Maybe she was temporarily transferred from somewhere else and did not go to Ansu.
Charles, who had received the information at this time, walked down the stairs while thinking with his head down.
This trip was worth it. Although I had to impersonate the identity of the Inquisition, at least I got some information and knew that I was safe after the sacrifice.
The early arrival of the destined death was not caused by the cultists' sacrifice...so what was the reason?
The investigation list he had written appeared in Ciel's mind.
The "Destined One" of the Deton Group requires more investigation, but it has been forced to stop because of the serious injury of the "Destined One" Lucy.
She wanted to know if Lucy's misfortune was the same as her own, and wanted to see if she could get anything out of Lucy.
As for the rest, there are still a few people who need to be investigated...
Redemption Society: Professor Ashford.
Royal Family: Opold Thaddeus.
Adventist sect: Archbishop Tara.
Professor Ashford is very likely in the Redemption Society. He currently has no way to communicate with the Society, and the only person he can communicate with, Adele, has already withdrawn from the Society.
Charles also had no means of contacting Opold from the royal family, and could only ask Avina.
As for Archbishop Tara, Charles had seen descriptions of her several times in his notebook.
Tara seems to have found Amy and has been secretly protecting her. While protecting Amy, she is also continuing to investigate Charles' whereabouts.
In the simulation, Charles met Tara twice. The first time they met, Charles did not recognize her as a cultist, and she did not pay attention to Charles.
The second time we met, according to the description in the notebook, was on the street.
That day, Charles' leg bone was broken. When he was recuperating at home, Amy came to visit him. When Charles was about to see Amy off, misfortune was suddenly triggered. Bullets from a gang fight shot at Charles and Amy, triggering the seal on Amy's back.
The servant of God cut off all the bullets almost instantly, and then bowed respectfully in the direction of Charles. This brief scene was captured by Tara.
Then, without saying a word, she rushed over and knelt down beside Charles, hugging her legs and bursting into tears, leaving Charles in the simulation speechless.
After confirming with Tara that she was the only one who knew the message from the servant of God, the simulated Charles tricked her into hiding in the city temporarily. Charles needed to obtain the internal information of the Holy Advent Sect through her.
However, because the Holy Advent sect stronghold here has been cleared out by Charles, Tara is of no use for the time being.
Now that I think about it, right after meeting Tara, I immediately encountered a misfortune that I had to use the transformation and save ability to avoid... I can investigate Tara again.
According to the description in the notebook, Tara seemed to be very fanatical about herself, so fanatical that she would believe whatever Charles said. That was why the simulated self kept her as an informant, and could also use her identity and resources to do things more conveniently.
Moreover, Tara is obviously a higher level being than Bishop Prague, but she has only digested the potion to the level of "missionary", and her own strength is only at the second level.
It seems that her promotion was not based on her strength, but on her extremely profound knowledge and deconstruction of the scriptures of the Savior Goddess Church. These abilities allowed her to achieve a high status within the Holy Advent Sect.
After recalling the location of Tara described in the notebook, Charles determined the next route.
If she couldn't find anything out from Tara, she could also consult Tara about the "bad luck" in the name of "I have a friend" to see if the knowledgeable Tara could give an answer.
If no results are found there, then go find Avina and Adele, and through them contact Professor Opold and Ashford to continue the investigation.
Charles quickly reached the second floor. As she walked down the central staircase towards the main hall, she saw members of the Redemption Society carrying a stretcher and slowly walking towards the door. They moved extremely slowly to avoid causing secondary injuries.
Lucy was lying on the stretcher, followed by a large group of employees from the Durden Manor. They wore masks on their faces and could not show their expressions, but from their actions, it seemed that they were more nervous than the people from the Redemption Society.
After all, the people in Deton Manor are still very superstitious about "luck". If even Lucy, the "destined one" with strong luck, had an accident here, they probably wouldn't dare to work here even if they resigned or went on strike.
But just as Charles went downstairs, she frowned slightly.
Because she heard an extremely painful and desperate muttering in her head.
Looking up, I found that the source of the mumbling actually came from Commissioner Lucy.
Just now, when the huge rock hit her head and it was about to break her, she didn't feel much pain or despair, but now after being given the potion to keep her alive, she began to show despair?
Ciel had a vague feeling that Lucy's despair might be the key to investigating the misfortune, and she definitely knew something.
If it were in reality, Charles might have planned before taking action.
But in the simulation, she only has 24 hours to move around, so she must not worry about anything and must act decisively as long as there is a possibility of obtaining intelligence.
A black shadow quickly rushed along the carpet towards the stretcher like a swimming fish, and then slowly rose in front of the stretcher.
A "doctor" noticed the strange scene and immediately said, "Stop!"
The burning black shadow gradually twisted in front of the "doctors". After a few flashes, Charles' figure appeared in front of the team, blocking their way.
"Sir, you are..."
The leading "doctor" asked in confusion. He naturally knew that these were people from the Savior Goddess Church, but he didn't know why they were blocking their way.
"Wait a moment."
Ciel raised her hand, interrupting him. She took a few steps towards the stretcher, leaning forward slightly to listen.
At this time, Lucy's eyeballs were completely blinded and red. Even so, she kept moving her throat and lips to speak, even though her teeth and mandible had been smashed.
"Let me... gu..."
"go back……"
"let me……"
"Go back..."
Ciel's action quieted the noisy crowd, and those who were closer at this time almost heard the words Lucy repeated.
"You want to go back?"
Charles asked, "Where to go back to?"
It seemed that her words finally received a response, and Lucy's tears suddenly flowed down. Blood mixed with tears flowed from the corners of her eyes and disappeared into the long dark brown hair at her temples.
"underground……"
"Holy Temple..."
Ciel spoke, confirming again: "You want to return to the Underground Temple, right?"
Although Lucy didn't know who the girl who was speaking was, she couldn't see the girl's appearance in front of her clearly. The blood had stained her eyeballs and dyed the girl's hair red... Now she couldn't even tell what the original color of the girl's hair was.
But she seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, and she used up her last bit of strength and said, "Yes!"
"Cough cough cough..."
After she finished speaking, she coughed up a large mouthful of blood. It seemed that her ribs had pierced her heart and lungs.
Charles straightened up, looked at the person in front of him, and said, "Why are you still standing there? Carry her back to the underground temple."
