Chapter 492 The Inquisitor’s Approach
Innsmouth was completely silent at night.
The continuous murders during this period have made this already gloomy town look even colder and gloomier. Now as soon as the sun goes down, everyone rushes home. Even those who are soliciting foreign tourists
Business has stopped. Even at home, the residents of Innsmouth dare not turn on the lights. They just light candles and huddle in their rooms, waiting in panic for the arrival of dawn...
A black cat quietly passed through the deserted streets and alleys, and came to a tall tower not far away. She leaped up deftly, and reached the top of the tower, then jumped and jumped
He reached the shoulder of Duanmuhuai, who was standing in the shadow, and leaned against his mouth to meow a few words. Duanmuhuai also stretched out his hand, touched the black cat's little head, and put her into his arms.
.
"Very good, everything seems to be going well."
Looking at the dead Innsmouth in front of him, Duanmuhuai nodded with satisfaction. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Mixed with the fresh sea breeze, what came was that wonderful thing, full of fear and despair.
The aura of those lowly alien hybrids in the face of death and destruction is the best food for Duanmuhuai, the God of Destruction.
In fact, these fish-faced heretics did not realize that the territory that was originally covered by the great god they believed in has now been quietly eroded by the fearful aura of the God of Destruction.
Of course, Duanmu Huai had already planned to do this.
In fact, most players do this.
If they receive a commission and go to investigate somewhere, most of these players will behave as politely as gentlemen, as if they are real professional detectives.
But on the other hand, if the players are not entrusted but actively seek trouble on their own, they will basically tear off their mask of civilization and become unscrupulous.
The reason is also very simple.
When you accept this commission, every move you make is considered the beginning of the assessment.
It's like an interview. From the moment you enter the room, no matter what you think, the assessment has already begun. Even your posture, attitude and tone of voice when sitting on the chair may affect your evaluation.
But it's different when you take the initiative to find trouble. Because there is no commission, the player can do whatever he wants. After all, even if I did it, as long as you can't find out, then in the end this matter will not be blamed on me!
Duanmuhuai is the same now.
If he had received a commission and came to Innsmouth to investigate a case, then Duanmuhuai would naturally act strictly in the manner of a regular investigator.
But if Duanmuhuai did not receive the commission and came to Innsmouth on his own initiative, then he could do whatever he wanted, even if he killed all the people in Innsmouth, as long as he could submit a piece of evidence to support his theory afterwards.
Then it's over.
This is also the reason why players in Innsmouth Town in the original game were surrounded by demons.
Another reason is even simpler. Although in this world, players are investigators, in the final analysis, they are the judges of the Tribunal.
As for the Innsmouth group of heretical bastards who are mixed with deep divers and believe in evil gods, according to the standards of the Inquisition, they must be completely exterminated. All men, women, and children must be killed. Of course, it is not just these beliefs.
Heretics and heretical cultists who are mixed with the Deep Ones, including the Deep Ones they believe in, Dagon and even Cthulhu, according to the standards of the Inquisition, they cannot be let go when they see them, and they must all be purified, leaving no one behind.
So to some extent, the player's identity as a judge and as an investigator are somewhat contradictory.
Because according to the job of the inquisitor, all heretics must be killed when they see it. Evidence? The inquisitor has the final say on this thing. I will get it if I say it. Whether you believe it or not is none of my business...
…
But of course investigators in this world cannot act so boldly. After all, they have to act within the legal framework. At least...you have to be able to explain it on the surface.
In fact, many players suffered a loss in this regard at the beginning. They accepted the commission and then went to investigate, only to find that a certain place was full of cultists. In the spirit of the Inquisition, they would rather kill a thousand people by mistake than let it go.
Their spirit was completely slaughtered. Of course, the local government couldn't just let it go, so these players started fighting with the police and the army who were chasing them. In the end, all their points were deducted and they were kicked out of the game world GAME OVER.
But later on, the players learned wisely and quickly found a balance.
All heretics must be killed. As inquisitors, this is their job. There is no need for discussion and no one can say anything.
But.........the middle process is too maneuverable.
The same is true for Duanmu Huai's current plan.
He planned to cause these serial killings in Innsmouth to increase the fear of the people of Innsmouth and at the same time put pressure on the four major families. He was certain that the four major families would never be able to withstand the pressure and wanted to summon Dagon.
Or Cthulhu asked for help.
When the time comes, he just needs to seize the opportunity, hit the opponent as hard as possible, and then burn down Innsmouth afterwards, and then when submitting the evidence line to the police, he will say that these idiots believe in evil gods and launch blasphemous religious rituals.
The failure resulted in the destruction of the entire town…………
Who can find out?
As long as the evidence is solid, the police will definitely turn a blind eye to this kind of thing.
Players are doing more similar operations in the game, and there are all kinds of fancy excuses, such as a sudden outbreak of plague, a sudden earthquake in the whole town, a sudden eruption of a nearby volcano and burying the whole town. It’s really
If I’m too lazy to make it up, I’ll just say that the people there suddenly went crazy and killed each other…………
Anyway, "Death has no evidence."
After all, investigators are investigators, just have fun, and the judge must not forget his job.
Duanmuhuai was not even worried that the people from Innsmouth would go to the police. These cultists themselves were not clean. If they dared to report such a thing, then they would really have to ask the higher authorities to come down and investigate. So he could be sure that he
No matter how many heretics were killed in Innsmouth, the people in Innsmouth would not dare to let go of one.
This is indeed the case. According to the results of Suzunu's investigation, people from the four major families have gathered to discuss countermeasures. As for the police station, they requested that the matter be suppressed completely and no one was allowed to mention it.
This also means that if Duanmu Huai continues to kill here, even if the superiors come to investigate, they will not be able to get any intelligence or information about the murder case - because in the police station, these cases "do not exist" at all.
.
Duanmuhuai felt that these cultists were so kind-hearted after killing their own people.
Of course, in return, Duanmuhuai promises to give them an unforgettable ending.
The reason why Duanmuhuai can do this is because he possesses the original gene of the Raven Guard, which allows him to haunt the streets of Innsmouth without being discovered. If not, then Duanmuhuai might want to be here.
It is much more difficult for local governments to move freely.
In fact, during the period when the four major families were all out searching for the murderer, Duanmu Huai was not idle. He used the time when the group of people went out to search for him during the day, and directly sneaked into the lair of the four major families, collecting
A lot of evidence was obtained - including the heavyweight material that the Fulson family bribed a certain congressman, and that Tolominy Hospital used the name of medical treatment to inject patients with mysterious drugs and use them to conduct various human experiments.
records and image data.
It can be said that the four major families did not expect that when they were looking for the murderer outside angrily, the culprit had already turned their lair upside down.
Coupled with the materials about collusion between the Innsmouth Police Department and the Frink family, Duanmuhuai has completely taken possession of a complete line of evidence. Now, he will see where this group of cultists plan to go, and whether he can
Who summoned it.
But unfortunately, in Duanmuhuai's view, the possibility of Cthulhu is extremely low. After all, it takes nine stars to unblock Cthulhu. However, I haven't heard of any unusual celestial phenomena recently. It is estimated that Dagon is their limit.
Of course, Dagon can barely accept the absence of Cthulhu...
As a god, Duanmuhuai is not afraid of a village chief-level evil god like Cthulhu. Although there are evil gods in this universe that Duanmuhuai is afraid of, a guy like Cthulhu who has nothing but a big name is simply not good at all.
There is nothing to be afraid of.
Many Cthulhu believers claim that when it wakes up, it will destroy the entire world... and then it was hit by a fishing boat.
That's it?
Aren't you embarrassed?
It would be so funny if the world could be destroyed by this thing.
Duanmuhuai was really curious, maybe there was something wrong with these believers' minds... Oh, they did indeed have something wrong with their minds.
That's okay.
After all, one of the biggest characteristics of Cthulhu believers is their mental retardation.
Then, it's time to completely destroy it all.
Early the next morning, the atmosphere in the entire town of Innsmouth seemed quite tense and gloomy. The heavy rain that lasted for several days did not stop, but became heavier and heavier. But in this kind of weather, the people of Innsmouth had no choice.
Staying at home, on the contrary, like shaking zombies, they walked out of their homes in twos and threes, gathered together, and poured forward along the street to the Dagon Church on the coast.
No one spoke or moved along the way. They just walked forward, and then walked forward, until they reached the church.
This church, which once belonged to other denominations, has now been transformed into a behemoth after decades of modifications, enough to accommodate hundreds of believers. And this is almost the majority of the population of Innsmouth.
.
Under the church, Chief Frink was also standing there, his whole body covered in black robes, looking into the dark, huge cave in front of him. This cave is where they sacrificed to the great existence they believed in, and this
Once, they will unite and pray for Dagon's grace and guidance to destroy the murderous ghost lingering in Innsmouth.
Patriarch Frink also secretly prayed for guidance of faith several times in private. However, all he received was a vague revelation. A tall, scary, majestic figure stared at the entire Innsmouth. In front of him, the entire town
It's as fragile as a toy on the sandbox.
However, this figure was blurry. Not only that, when Chief Frink looked at him, he only felt an extremely trembling fear coming from the depths of his soul.
"Mr. Frink."
"————!"
The figure heard in his ears shocked the Flink clan leader. He quickly came back to his senses and turned around to see a fat man beside him, frowning and glaring at him. He was none other than the wealthy man.
The patriarch of the Ersson family. On a normal day, Flink would have definitely ridiculed his fat figure like a pig, but now, he was not in such a mood.
"What's wrong?"
"It's time for the ceremony to begin."
Fulson nodded to Flink, who also took a long breath, then looked forward with wide eyes.
"Of course...then, let's get started."
Chapter completed!
