Chapter 37 [Ms. Silence] (seeking to follow up)
Although it was not the first time for Li Wei to kill someone, it was his first time to kill someone in his bedroom.
He looked at the corpse on the ground, and removed the crow mouth mask made of black metal. It was no longer clear who it was from the split head.
"It's unlucky, I have to sleep in another room tomorrow."
"But I really don't know this person. It should be a killer hired by my enemy. The problem is, I'm a teenage kid who has never messed with anyone. Who will send someone to kill me?"
For a while, Li Wei began to recall his life of being kind to others.
Ultimately, he only thought of two people who might have had a motive to kill him.
One is Pastor Abraham. After all, some time ago, I just rejected the church and didn't give that superior pastor a good face. He might indeed kill himself.
The second possibility is the Duke of Montenegro and the two closest earls to the Duke of Montenegro, the Earl of Silver Yarn and the Earl of Blood.
After all, these people have occupied their territory, and although I may not care about it on the surface, these people know that if they really grow up to be like the Black Snake Knight one day, they may take the territory back, so They simply did nothing and kept going, making the Black Snake family completely extinct.
"But, if that's the case, why did they let me go in the first place? It doesn't make sense." Li Wei muttered to himself.
"Or, that old dog of Abraham did."
"In short, apart from these two, I should have no conflicts of interest, or grievances with other people."
"Could it be that the Wild Boar Gang did it, the person who robbed me before, now wants to **** me directly?"
"However, the Wild Boar Gang is an evil force in the underground world. They should not hire killers, and they are not afraid of losing their reputation."
Li Wei paced back and forth in the room, a little fidgety.
"I am so low-key, so tolerant, why, why do you still want to kill me?"
"No, I have to find a way to find out who wants to harm me. Once I know... if I can beat him, I have to get rid of this person, otherwise I will have trouble sleeping and eating."
My own castle has high walls on all sides, and there are soldiers patrolling it all the time.
This killer can get in so easily, he is definitely not weak, and he is good at stealth.
Thinking of this, Li Wei took out a knife and cut open the killer's chest. On the killer's heart, there was an illusory black gaseous object like an octopus lurking on it, with countless capillary-like blood vessels. Tentacles take root in the heart.
"Hehe, the seed of life! Sure enough, this person is an official knight!"
"Sending an official knight to deal with me, the mastermind behind it must be extraordinary." Li Wei's face was cloudy.
With the death of the killer, the octopus-shaped life seed began to dissipate slowly.
Li Wei watched silently. It was also the first time he dissected an official knight.
Sure enough, it was similar to the situation in his own body, and there was a similar seed of life on his heart.
It's just that my own life seed is in the shape of a snake, and this life seed is in the shape of an octopus.
Li Wei took off all the clothes on the killer, looking for some clues.
Eventually, he found a booklet in the lining of the killer's suit.
The booklet only has a few pages, and the cover shows a figure hiding in the shadows, with a dark and eerie style of painting.
"In Praise of Shadows."
Li Wei thought to himself, and he opened the booklet.
The content inside is similar to some religious books, and the whole article introduces a god. This **** is named:
Lord of Shadows.
"The Lord of Shadows? I haven't heard of it." Li Wei shook his head.
Although it cannot be said that there are so many gods and beliefs in this world, there are also many.
In addition to the [Father of Heaven] believed by the Holy Radiance Church, there are also the [Holy Mother of the Earth] of the Church of the Earth, the [Goddess of Ice and Snow] of the Church of Winter, the [Storm Monarch] of the Church of Storms, and the [Eternal Flame] of the Church of Eternal Life. ], the [King of Dragons] of the Dragon Church, and the [Lord of the Stars] of the Church of the Stars, these seven are the seven righteous gods believed by the people of the seven countries in the world today.
The reason why the seven righteous gods are called righteous gods is nothing more than because the church they belong to has huge influence in the seven countries, so they call themselves righteous gods.
In addition to these seven righteous gods, the beliefs that Li Wei knows include the [Lord of the Wilderness] of the Brotherhood of the Wilderness, the [Lady of Silence] of the Silent Monastery, and the [God of War] believed by some war fanatics. etc.
So, it is normal for Li Wei not to know the Lord of Shadows.
Essentially, the voice of the dead bird is an organization with a very small number of people. There are not many people who believe in the Lord of Shadows, and it has not spread at all.
In the past, Li Wei didn't care about these gods' beliefs, but since confirming the existence of wizards, he discovered that some myths and legends may not be as simple as he imagined.
This world can have wizards with supernatural powers, why can't it have more powerful gods?
Li Wei still respects the gods.
Although he doesn't believe in these, he respects the beliefs of others, but the premise is not to hinder himself.
After reading Praise of Shadows, Li Wei found that on the last page of the booklet, there was actually a picture of the inheritance of a breathing method.
The inheritance map is similar to the breathing method inheritance map that Li Wei obtained before, except that in the middle of those villain patterns is a rough sea, and in the middle of the sea is a huge sea monster similar to an octopus, which is a bit like a previous life The legend of sea monsters circulating in parts of Europe: the North Sea giant monster.
"?? There are people who carry the inheritance of breathing method with them?"
Li Wei is also funny.
What he didn't know was that the siren breathing method is the most common breathing method used by the members of the Voice of the Dead Birds organization. This organization will give some manuals that promote the Lord of Shadows printed with the siren breathing method to those who they think have potential However, the children of civilians who do not have ancestral breathing methods train their killer skills from an early age and provide resources for them to practice the siren breathing method, so as to ensure that the organization is always injected with fresh blood.
The siren breathing method is originally a breathing method that is extremely suitable for assassination. It pays attention to the flexibility and agility of the body, and it can change a person's body shape through the principle similar to the bone shrinking skill. Tricks and even makeovers can be done.
In fact, if the Illusory Demon Knight hadn't underestimated the enemy, was too close to Li Wei, and was caught off guard by Li Wei, even if Li Wei was an official knight, it would not be so easy to kill the Illusory Demon Knight.
Li Wei put away the "Praise of the Shadow", which recorded the inheritance diagram of the breathing method, together with the crow's mouth mask, the dagger that looked good, and other assassination tools.
Li Wei tore up the worthless killer's corpse and threw it into the burning fireplace. He watched the corpse burn in the flames, crackling, and the smell of burnt permeated the air. The eight-claw phantom rose up in the flames, and then gradually disappeared. When he looked at it intently, only a charred black skeleton was left.
"Heh, breathing method is really evil."
Li Wei's heart is completely empty.
