vs 1498 Mother Tessa
After Alex finished saying "Iris", Angel immediately reacted to who Alex was talking about.
In the church of Kruja, in addition to Father Alex and Bran Lang, there is actually a long-term resident.
It was Sister Tessa, who worked in the flower fields every day.
According to Alex's hints, Sister Tessa is the one who manipulates the undead and the one who takes the flesh and blood of the corpses away. And the reason why the iris field can bloom so vigorously is because the fertilizer used by Mother Tessa is the corpses of those who died.
Ingres has a weak impression of Sister Tessa.
After being reminded by Alex, Angel remembers that he had seen the undead manipulator before. Although Ingres did not see the other side, he did see one characteristic of the other side: rickets.
Although Sister Tessa was younger than Burren Lang, she was also in her sixties, and her stature was indeed short and rickety, almost exactly the same as the back that Ingres saw that day.
In this way, the "she" in Chamberlain's mouth is really Mother Tessa.
Anglel suddenly found it funny, the two closest people around Alex, one wanted to kill him but gave up, and the other wanted to kill him but couldn't exceed the rules.
And Alex, who knew nothing, followed these two people and lived for three years.
"And how are you going to kill her?" asked Ingre, curious.
Alex didn't answer, glanced at Father Brunron, who was still talking to Viscount Vega, from a distance, turned around and left the Viscount's mansion along the path.
"You're going to kill her right now?"
Alex: "She hasn't found out that Father Bronlong is dead, and she doesn't know that I already know the truth, so it's better to do it than soon as possible." ”
Angel: "I don't know the depth of Sister Tessa's strength, wouldn't it be too arbitrary to kill her directly?"
As soon as Angels finished speaking, a commotion came from the distant street.
Alex and Angel glanced at each other and ran quickly, only to see the residents of the street scattered. Alex stopped a man and asked about the situation.
The man quickly explained what had happened.
It turned out that in a room on the third floor not far away, there was a terrible scream. Someone ran out of the building and said that a resident on the third floor had been killed.
Now the inhabitants of Gust Town, all of whom are in danger, are all frightened birds, and as soon as they hear that someone has been killed, they start running out without saying a word.
That's what caused the commotion on the street today.
According to the narrator, the neighbors of the slain seem to have seen the murderer, and there are two people, one is a tall man in armor and the other looks like a child.
The neighbor's colorful description said that the tall man's back was somewhat like that of the Raven Knight who had died a few days earlier, and that the boy was wearing the same hat as Anthony.
For the listener, this is just a symbolic description. But for Alex, this may not be symbolic, the killers are Raven and Anthony!
In the midst of the riotous crowd, Alex looked up at the small building in the distance.
The windows on the third floor were pitch black, and there seemed to be nothing, but suddenly, a pale head slowly rose from under the windowsill.
It was a boy no more than ten years old, staring directly at the scattered residents below with a vicious expression.
When the boy noticed Alex looking at him, a sinister smile curled up on his lips. Immediately afterward, his figure vanished.
"It's Anthony. Alex suppressed the gloomy feeling in his heart and said softly.
"They have created such a big riot in broad daylight, and sure enough, as Father Brunlong said, their purpose is to turn Gust Town into a ghost and become a real Shura field!" Alex said in a deep voice: "Maybe my decision is indeed a bit arbitrary, but if it drags on, according to the current situation, it is basically impossible to continue to maintain the false balance that the priest is pursuing." ”
"It's better to give it a try. ”
Alex had already made up his mind and hurried towards the Cruja Chapel.
However, his plan has not yet been implemented, but the change has come first.
As Alex was about to cross an alley and try to sneak in through the back door of the Cruja Chapel, a little boy wearing a flying cap stood in front of him.
The little boy suddenly raised his head, revealing a terrifying face.
His face was pale, his eyes were full of strange wrinkles, and his dark eyes were full of resentment.
"Anthony ......," Alex whispered out the name of the person.
"Hee-hee, when you see me, you have to come and accompany me. Anthony smirked, his eyes flashing with bloodthirsty desire.
Alex couldn't help but take a step back, but suddenly there was a gust of wind behind him, and when he looked back, he saw a tall knight stopping him.
Anthony appeared, and the identity of this knight was self-evident.
It's the Riven Knight!
Alex didn't expect that before he could go to Sister Tessa, the other party had already started to fight his idea. From Anthony's tone, is it because he sees the other party?
So, he was calculated by Sister Tessa first, using the rules to let the undead come to him?
Whatever the answer is, it doesn't matter now.
What should he do in this narrow alley with only a narrow single path, blocked by Anthony in front of him, and then blocked by Knight Revane in the back?
Alex gripped the death-breath dagger that Ingres had cast his illusion on, recalling some of the combat experiences he had remembered not long ago.
Now, it seems that if you want to see Sister Tessa, you must solve the crisis in front of you.
Will he be able to succeed, though?
It wasn't Anthony who was the first to attack, but the Riven knight with the sword behind his back, and he was on tiptoe and rushed towards Alex at great speed.
Alex subconsciously turned around and dodged Knight Raven's blow, but before he could think of his next strategy, a chill appeared in his legs.
When he looked down, he saw Anthony hugging his thigh, staring at Alex with a terrifying face, and hooking up a malicious smile.
Gusts of wind are coming!
The second blow from Riven Knight also arrived at this time.
Alex belongs to the category of people who are calmer the more critical moments. He bowed down to form a bridge, and after dodging the Raven Knight's attack, he took out the death dagger and plunged it into the back of Anthony's neck.
I saw Anthony scream miserably, and a large amount of black gas erupted from the back of his neck.
Alex took the opportunity to kick Anthony away. However, his movements were still too slow, and Knight Raven had already deceived him.
At this moment of crisis, Alex supported the ground with one hand and retreated nimbly, which was able to dodge the blow of the Raven Knight. It's just that Alex has just escaped from the hands of the Raven Knight, and a new crisis has emerged.
A woman, suddenly descending from the sky, appeared at Alex's side.
"Tailor Sansi?!" Alex looked at her face in surprise, this person was Anthony's mother.
However, unlike the sad expression of the previous days, the Samsi tailor is now full of resentment, his eyes are pitch black, and apparently at some point, the Samsi tailor has also been killed and turned into an undead!
The appearance of the tailor Sansi made Alex stunned for a moment, and it was also this little bit of time that caused Alex to fall into a desperate situation.
Anthony, who had been wounded by him with a dagger earlier, fell to the ground again and hugged his feet.
Tailor Sansi held an eerie pair of scissors in his hand and slashed at Alex's neck.
And Knight Raven was not to be outdone, and slashed at Alex with a swing of his long sword.
Surrounded by this, Alex only felt as if he had fallen into the abyss of evil thoughts, and even if he kept trying to struggle, he couldn't make any moves.
At this critical moment, Angels made a move.
An illusion directly obscured the sight of the three undead, and at the same time, a soft force dragged Alex out of the siege.
Alex looked back after getting out of the trap, but saw that the three undead were like headless flies, constantly rotating in a very small area.
When he learned that they were trapped by the illusion, Alex didn't hesitate and turned around and left.
It's not easy to kill these three undead now. And Alex's purpose is not to kill the undead, as long as he kills Mother Tessa, his authority to control the undead will naturally fall into the hands of Father Bronlong.
So, the undead are not his target!
Alex originally planned to quietly attack Sister Tessa, but because of the undead's obstruction, Alex's plan collapsed in advance.
When he came to the small garden behind the church of Kruya.
Mother Tessa was hunched over, carrying an oil lamp with irises in it, and looked at Alex with gloomy eyes.
Throughout the small flourishing garden, there were more than twenty undead who were watching Alex with resentful eyes.
Sister Tessa smiled viciously at Alex, turned around and carried the oil lamp, and stepped into the void and disappeared, apparently Mother Tessa went to the space of the dead.
And the remaining twenty or so undead, with strong evil thoughts, slowly approached Alex.
