When the few people finally killed the monster, night had already fallen. The closest Wayne and his crew came to flipping over during this period was not even related to the monster. It was simply because they were only relying on the kerosene lamp hanging on the front of the car, and racing at night was too risky. Finally, just in case, Peter went up and gave it another bite, and Inessa used a special dagger to treat it for a while, confirming that the monster was indeed dead, and then collected its body. Holding the makeshift torches, they searched all the way back from the quarry. There were about thirty gangsters chasing the carriage, but only twenty-four bodies were actually found. It is unknown whether the rest escaped alive or were picked up by their companions. So after identification, Several people loaded the bodies of wanted criminals who were confirmed or suspected to have a reward into the truck. As for the remaining corpses, they could only be placed on the roadside after the weapons and property were looted, and people would come to collect them at daybreak. It filled almost a whole car.
Three of the horses ridden by the criminals had not run far and were now tied to the back of the carriage. A few people even picked up some corn cobs that were basically intact. Lina was so happy on the way back that she was humming happily all the way. After hearing that, The three people next to her could hum a few lines along with her. … When the carriage returned to the town, the sky was beginning to show signs of gradually brightening. A few of them first ran to the town bank. The captain of the bank security team confirmed Wayne's face on the carriage, waved his hand to ask people to withdraw the attack on the carriage, and then came over. He seemed relieved: "Wayne, there are no signs of large-scale criminal activities around the town so far. I think if we wait a while, we can basically be sure that the criminals probably won't come today." Wayne yawned. There is no such thing as a peaceful life. There are always people carrying the burden for you. So Wayne pouted angrily in the direction of the carriage: “I don’t know if there will be other criminals coming, but we have already brought back some of them.” The security captain looked inside from the rear of the car using the light from the fire. Seeing several bodies piled up inside and at least a dozen lever-action rifles stacked up, when he turned around again, his face was full of surprise. "You encountered criminals on the road? And you killed them all?" "They were the first to do it."
Wayne shrugged his shoulders. "There are still more than a dozen bodies that have not been brought back yet. I'll ask the mayor to arrange for people to collect them later." The security captain was hesitant to speak, and finally could only give Wayne a thumbs up. Then the carriage was driven by Lina to the police station again. After checking the wanted order, The total amount of bounties that can be directly redeemed is US$680. Among them was the one that Lina had been dreaming of before, Louis Iverson, who was worth $200 million. Adding the discounted value of the seized guns and ammunition and the looted property, the total amount was $1,780. Anyone who sees it will have a share. The price of guns these days, Small workshops are cheaper, while factories with good quality control are more expensive. The generic version is cheap, the custom one is expensive. The same gun is cheaper the closer to the East Coast cities, and more expensive the further west you go. Because Black Rock Town has a steam train, the price of guns is not too outrageous. Depending on the brand, workmanship and condition, the recycling discount for a lever-action rifle is at most around US$23. The price of a revolver fluctuates greatly, and the discount is generally calculated based on the cheaper one, which is around US$10. But the amount seized this time was huge. It’s higher than the bounty for wanted criminals. At this time, the dead monster had basically returned to its human form. Say "basic recovery\ ,"Because although he no longer looked like an "inhuman" monster, his skin was still torn and his body was swollen, just like those rotting corpses soaked in water. Although Lina was sure that it was the most valuable of the gangsters, Arthur Iverson, worth $500 per person, But looking at this blurry lump of rotten meat and with his own vested interests at stake, Wayne really couldn't convince himself to lower his standards. So we had to tow it behind the police station. I will ask other public officials in the town to come back tomorrow to review and confirm. Otherwise, it will be difficult to explain it later and to get reimbursement. As for the church, Pastor Hake could directly testify to Inissa that she had indeed killed a Fallen One of at least level 3. By reporting to the church as a parish priest, she can obtain corresponding contribution points. Lina secretly shook a small bag,
While Pastor Hake was not paying attention, he signaled Wayne to divide the extraordinary materials extracted from the monster equally. … After sending Pastor Huck back to the church, Wayne and the others planned to go home and catch up on some sleep. Unexpectedly, the church was quite lively at this time. It turned out that support from the Kankers Cathedral also arrived yesterday afternoon along with the steam train. Seeing Pastor Hake and Inissa, Joffrey, the captain of the county church exorcism team, came over first. Captain Joffrey signaled Wayne not to leave yet, and to follow the others to meet the leader of the support team from the Kankers Cathedral. Unlike the Holy See of the Old World, the Church of the Holy Spirit of the American Federation practices the "episcopal system." In theory, there are only three types of people within the church: The "bishop" who manages the large diocese, the "priest" who manages the small diocese, and the "deacon" in institutions such as churches or monasteries. The highest authority within the Church of the Holy Spirit is the College of Bishops, which is composed of bishops from important dioceses or those who are highly respected. In principle, the archdioceses are equal to each other and the bishops are of equal rank. But in reality, Those who understand will understand. For example, the power and influence of the words of the bishop in the wild western states and the bishop in the prosperous eastern states are completely different. Below are the small parishes divided from the big diocese. Each has a parish church and a corresponding priest. Priests are theoretically of equal rank, but their actual status may be even more different. Captain Joffrey of the County Church, It seems that they treated Pastor Tywin, who led the team from Kanx City, with much more respect than they treated Pastor Harker, who managed the Blackrock Town Church: “Reverend Hake, I will not hold you responsible for being absent from your post during a critical period. “But after I take you to see Priest Tywin, you must report the situation to him as soon as possible to prevent the most critical follower of the evil god from escaping. "Ah, and this one...what's your name? Anessa? You're not really needed here. If Reverend Tywin has any questions for you, answer them. Otherwise, keep quiet." As for Wayne, In Captain Joffrey's eyes, he was probably just a Muggle who was familiar with the local conditions. Originally, his attitude towards Wayne was quite average, and maybe because a few people had run away and stood him up before, now he didn't even have a word to say to Wayne. Outside the church lounge, Captain Joffrey, who usually looked down on others, first straightened his head and chest and straightened his posture, then tidied his appearance a little, and then knocked gently on the door twice.
"Come in." Captain Joffrey opened the door, walked in front, and let the three people follow in. Wayne, who was following at the end, took a sneak peek. At this time, Priest Tywin, who was standing by the window of the lounge, looking out with his hands behind his back, was about sixty years old, tall and with broad shoulders. He has a beard, a hooked nose, a straight back and sharp eyes, and looks like a man who holds real power and is smart and capable. What he was wearing, It was not a priest-style robe, but a more neat and tidy black waistcoat uniform. It looks and feels like a special job in the church. Captain Joffrey seemed to have a mixture of respect and fear for Priest Tywin. At this time, he seemed to want to take the initiative to greet Pastor Tywin and show his closeness, but he seemed a little hesitant, as if he didn't know what to say most appropriately. Priest Tywin's sharp eyes swept across the faces of several people. Then he walked past Captain Joffrey, approached Inissa, and immediately smiled. ——He is the kind of person who is usually serious, but only when he wants to show kindness, he will force out a smile that still has a bit of stiffness. Reverend Tywin nodded slightly in greeting: "Ms. Inissa, I would like to hear the opinions of an experienced hunter like you first."
