On the open space in the street square, a death-like silence spreads.

——In the cold and bone-bone air, the God of Death, who was responsible for the execution, has arrived.

As the guide and guardian of the undead in ancient Egyptian mythology, Anubis is not a demon, but a real god of the dead.

When the wolf-headed god descended, several Holy Light believers sentenced to death began to tremble violently.

The flesh and blood of humans alone cannot withstand the pressure of the gods at close range. These poor "cultists" want to escape, but their bodies are completely out of control and can only watch Anubis walk forward. Then-

A pale mist appeared on the platform, and all the torches were extinguished in an instant.

In full view of everyone, Anubis's figure melted into the thick fog and disappeared, and the fog also dissipated, leaving only a few corpses sucked into mummies. He sat on the platform in his original position, and his shriveled face completely lost its vitality, like a mummy with a bandage removed.

After the execution was completed, the judge in white robe walked up to the platform again, stood next to the mummy, and shouted loudly: "This is the end of the cultists!"

His voice seemed to awaken the onlookers in the square in a "stiff" state, and deafening cheers immediately sounded in the crowd. The believers who witnessed the execution chatted happily and began to turn around and walk towards the territory where they lived.

Lin Chi could see that in Sodom City, faith seemed to be more important than life: the few people who killed people in the street were not punished, and the "cultivists" who believed in the Holy Light could only end up being executed in public.

However, even though the execution was over, he did not leave the square, but stared at the few white-robed men standing on the high platform to examine the bodies, ready to follow them.

You need a tightly wrapped outfit to avoid being recognized by the residents and guards. As long as you can get involved in this so-called heresy trial team, the next game will undoubtedly be much smoother.

Standing in front of a house on the street and observing the situation on the high platform. Lin Chi noticed that in addition to the white-robed man who had just been sentenced, several judges in black robes appeared.

Unlike the white-robed man, these people are not hero-level NPCs, and no names or prompt names pop up around them. It seems that they should be relatively low-level members.

The man in black robe stood beside the platform, carried a few withered corpses, turned around and walked off the platform. Seeing this scene, Lin Chi slowly walked past the shadows on the street and followed in the direction where the judges left.

This area in the center of the city does not seem to belong to any single "god". Lin Chi discovered portraits of Mephist and Samar, as well as some other portraits. Among them are terrifying cavalry riding a ghost army horse, and there are also female images holding half-moon-shaped double-edged ones. Since there is no name, it is impossible to tell which "god" it is.

However, judging from his experience in Sodom City, these guys must be demons.

With Anubis leaving, the temperature in the square in the middle of the street finally returned to normal. Lin Chi was walking by the street sneakily, but felt an inexplicable strangeness.

——It seems that someone is watching themselves.

He keenly sensed some discomfort, and turned his head to look at the other side of the street, and saw a sneaky human-shaped black shadow in the shadow of the house there. If he didn't look carefully, it would be difficult to tell that it was a person.

"Does this guy want to play this set too..."

Realizing that the other party seemed to have the same thoughts as him, Lin Chi stopped in place and continued to observe the person across the street.

Since there has not entered the battle, neither side can see the other's name. There are many guards on the street now. In order to avoid being chopped into meat sauce by the guards, neither of them chose to fight directly. They just continued to move along the street, followed the footsteps of the heresy trial team, and walked towards the city center.

Two players, less than 30 meters away, started a silent confrontation on both sides of the road. The judges walking in the middle of the street boarded several carriages and left the area with their bodies. Several guards on the road ahead also completely blocked the way they went.

The central area of ​​Sodom City seems to be a prohibited area that is not allowed to enter by civilians. Judging from the dark outline in the distance, there are no tall castles or high-rise buildings such as bell towers in the center of the city. Instead, it is no different from the outside city.

——Is there something shameful hidden in the center of the city?

While thinking, Lin Chi turned his head and looked at the shadow on the other side of the street, but found that the player had left, as if he had run along the path on the street.

Realizing that the other party had left, Lin Chi decisively left this crisis-ridden area and entered the nearby urban area under the cover of the night.

Mephist's territory is large and extends to the inside of the city. Seeing that he returns to his familiar territory. Lin Chi was about to find a way to find out the location of the "Heredom Trial Team", but heard a whimpering sound in the houses on the street:

“Woo woo woo woo…”

As if a woman was crying quietly in the house beside her, Lin Chi turned her head and looked at the gray stone wall of the house. She saw that the light was not on in the house, but a small gap was opened in the wooden door.

--what the hell?

Faced with the suspected "supernatural incident", Lin Chi looked up at the window of the house and noticed the subtle changes in the shadows beside the window.

He didn't say anything, but just walked to the door alertly. When he reached the dead corner by the window, he pulled out two sabers from his backpack and put them into his pocket as quickly as possible.

“…”

The crying in the house continued. Lin Chi stood in front of the wooden door, slowly pushed open the door, and entered the dark house.

The moonlight cast from the window left a white mark on the floor, and the rotten smell floated in the living room. Because the light was too dark, Lin Chi could only see the rough outline of the furniture inside the house and the statue of Mephist leaning against the door, which was one person tall.

“Um…”

Listening to the crying sounded from the bedroom, Lin Chi slowly put his hands into his pocket, and then... directly activated the "big bleeding" skill of the tiger claw hunting knife.

Click!

The sharp blade left a flash of white shadows in the air, and automatically released his skills towards Mephist's statue. A stream of blood spurted out from the wrist of the statue, and his body began to twist, making a low scream:

"ah!"

Without waiting for the other party to fight back, Lin Chi stabbed the man into the head. Although his physical attributes were not strong, the "first-hand advantage" of the sudden attack still made him directly complete the kill.

——The other party seemed to be planning to disguise himself as a sculpture of Mephist and attack the passers-by who was attracted by the crying sounds. Although he didn't know why he did this, Lin Chi knew very well that there must be more than one enemy!

While the body beside the door fell to the ground with a thump, the bedroom door was kicked open. A burly man waving a wide blade butcher knife rushed out and chopped Lin Chi's head with a knife.

Lin Chi suddenly turned sideways, but the low physical attribute value once again hindered his dodging movement. The knife did not hit the head, but hit his shoulder, leaving a huge scar on his right shoulder with deep bones.

But even if the body was cut open, Lin Chi's movements did not appear to be slow at all. The negative effect of the disabled that should have appeared was directly offset by the zombie's constitution. The pain of the player being weakened was weakened for the second time, reaching a point where he almost disappeared completely.

——The knife that was cut on his body felt similar to being scratched by a toothpick for Lin Chi. With the effect of the Titan grip triggered by the double-held saber, Lin Chi suddenly twisted his body, and the two sabers rotated through the front of the other party's body, cutting the other party's throat one by one!

"Well……"

The strong man with a cut throat leaned against the wall, and a poisonous hissing sounded in his throat. He covered his neck tightly with his hands, trying to stop the blood from gushing, but it was completely futile.

Seeing that the guy was alive in a few seconds, Lin Chi rushed into the bedroom behind him and saw a woman in white clothes with long matte hair leaning against the head of the bed, widening her terrified eyes and staring at Lin Chi's face:

"The Cursed... God Mephist... Please bless me..."

Before the other party could finish speaking, Lin Chi stabbed into the woman's heart. Until the only remaining light of life was completely extinguished in those round eyes, she finally pulled out the saber and turned to walk towards the other bedroom.

Apart from these three idiots, there seemed to be no one else in the room. After confirming that there were no other living things, Lin Chi returned to the living room and closed the wooden door, lit the candlestick on the coffee table, and observed the situation in the room through the swaying fire.

People living in this house worshipped Mephist and had reached a morbid fanatic level. The walls were full of Mephist's appearance. Dozens of statues of various sizes, as well as various Mephist's badges and souvenirs in the living room.

It seems that they spent all their money on buying these things. The other furniture in the house was particularly simple. Some garbage that had not been thrown away was piled in the corner of the living room, turning this originally not very clean house into a garbage dump that exuded a rotten smell.

"Is this... a sacrifice?"

Smelling the rotten corpse, Lin Chi used his feet to push away the pile of garbage and saw a rotten head.

He turned and walked into the bedroom where the woman who had just cried, and saw a small statue of Mephist on the long wooden table beside the wall. In the wooden plate in front of the statue, there were two rotten human hands.

Lin Chi reached out and picked up a wrinkled yellow paper beside the table, and saw a few lines of crooked words written on it:

"Last night, God Mephist whispered to me that he needed more sacrifices. If I could provide sacrifices, would I be elected as the priest of God Mephist and get close to the supreme god?"

"God Mephist, please don't be sad. I will provide you with sacrifices in my own way. In order to let your glory shine on the entire Sodom, I will do my best!"

...

"You are really pious." Lin Chi turned around and looked at the corpse lying by the window as he spoke.

Although this passage is short, it expresses the author's admiration for God Mephist and his dedication to sacrifice everything for the gods. However, now is not the time to do reading comprehension...

"Hey, Mephiste, are you here?" Lin Chi looked at the statue on the table.

Since the woman heard the devil's whisper, that is, something in the house should also play the role of an altar. As expected, five seconds after Lin Chi asked a question, he heard a hoarse whisper:

"Cursed, have you obtained your soul?"

"Your believer almost killed me." Lin Chi stretched out his finger and pointed to the big hole on his shoulder. Under the influence of the zombie's constitution, the wound was in the process of being repaired and could be restored to its original state in about ten minutes.

"You won't be defeated by them, right?" Mephist laughed.

Too lazy to chat with this weak devil, Lin Chi got to the point and asked, "How is the exchange method for your soul?"

"If you get a small soul, I can enhance your strength. If you have a large soul, there will be other rewards." Mephist's answer was also quick, making the "two people" present like customers and vendors in the vegetable market.

"I have a small Mephist soul in my hand." Lin Chi said.

"Oh... is it my original power? You killed the cursed person under my command, right?" Mephist's voice suddenly fell.

"That's right." Lin Chi admitted directly without hesitation: "He is too weak. I think you probably don't need that kind of weak person, so he sent his soul back."

“…”

As soon as these words came out, Mephist was silent for a moment, and the whisper like a venomous snake finally rang again:

"Okay, this statement makes some sense, but don't do this next time. I need the souls of other gods, not the souls of my own people."

"What can I exchange for the small Mephist soul? If you don't want it, I'll take it to another place to sell it." Lin Chi said, turning around, as if he was about to leave.

——In fact, the soul in his hand was completely unsold at the other two altars. Lin Chi just wanted Mephist to make a decision quickly, so he deliberately pretended to be like this.

Seeing that his guy was about to leave, Mephist asked in a hoarse voice: "Walking zombie, aren't you afraid that I will take back the power in your body?"

"It's up to you, I'll lose no money anyway." Lin Chi smiled.

"All right……"

As if impressed by the shamelessness of the cursed man under his command, Mephist's altar sighed a long sigh, and then said, "Tell me the soul in your hand, and I will strengthen your strength."

Hearing this, Lin Chi took out the small Mephist soul from his backpack and put it on the wooden table. The skeleton shrouded with purple air seemed to have been absorbed and disappeared directly in front of his eyes.

He opened the attribute bar and looked at it, and saw that all his attribute values ​​had increased a little.

"That's just a little bit of power?" Lin Chi frowned.

"Don't worry, zombies, I'll get stronger..." Mephist's voice seemed a little embarrassed.
