"The murderer appears again." Rex said calmly. Erwin and Susan took a breath at the same time. He frowned and said in disbelief: "Which murderer?" "Who else? You have fought a lot when you were in Sand Shield City. Have we talked?" Rex smiled softly, and the corners of his bloodless mouth outlined a strange arc. Erwin tightened his hands. Although he knew exactly who Rex was referring to, he still couldn't believe it. He couldn't help but ask again: "You meanGegil is not dead yet?" "I have no direct evidence." Rex shook his head and frowned, "However, judging from the murder method and method, it is exactly the same as Gejir, which makes me have to doubt it." Erwin's face became a little ugly, he pondered, and Susan next to him looked over with worried eyes. "Gegil can't be alive, that's the only thing I can confirm." After pondering for a while, Erwin said. If it were other things, then he would not dare to make such a sure decision, but he was the most qualified and the person with the right to speak on whether Gejir was dead - not only Erwin killed him with his own hands The iron sword pierced Gegil's chest, and he gained a lot of experience points after killing Gegil. This was the only thing that could not be faked. Even if there is no corpse, Erwin does not think that the system will give him experience points when Gezier's life and death are unknown. Therefore, Gejir can definitely be dead. Rex nodded. Although he was still frowning, his expression still looked much better. He didn't suspect Erwin of deceiving him. After asking clearly about the place where Erwin killed Gezier, Rex immediately rushed over to check. Although he could not get Gezier's body in the end, the sewer was frozen. On the water surface, the broken pothole is still vivid in my mind. If Gajeel really fell in, let alone Erwin who had given him a sword before, even if he fell into the cold and biting water intact, it was unlikely that he could survive. However, Rex also has reasons to be suspicious, because in recent investigations, the murderous maniacs that frequently appear in the hinterland of Lorenzo have come into his eyes many times, and they have caused panic and uneasiness in many places. . And after Rex checked several villages destroyed by the murderous maniac, he did see the same cruel and inhumane killing methods as Gejir. Psychopaths such as perverted murderers appear frequently in various countries or prosperous cities. They are veterans who are stimulated on the battlefield, or mentally disturbed mercenaries, or they appear in research experiments. Wrong caster. ??For the sake of interest and venting, you may become a perverted murderer. It¡¯s just that there are almost no murderers using the same method, so after discovering that the victim was killed by the same method as the victims in Sandshield City and the Gray Mountains, Rex inevitably thought of Gejir, and Thinking about whether he is not dead yet. So after getting Erwin's confirmation, although Rex was relieved, he still felt a headache for this new murderer. "What happened? Where did the murderer appear?" Erwin asked curiously. "I don't know for sure, but generally speaking, it's the same as what Gajeel did at the beginning, but compared to Gajeel, the murderer who appears now is much bolder. Many villages have been destroyed, and there are Two nobles with knight status died in his hands" Rex raised his head and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and then slowly told what happened after he left Sandshield City. After leaving Sandshield City, Rex started his investigative journey with bits and pieces of information about the Final Cultists in hand, and the situation inside Lorenzo's belly was the first place he investigated, because there was something here. There are many traces of the activities of the final believers. However, the information Rex had was still too little after all, and his strength alone was also very insufficient. Although he was able to get support from the officials from Lourenco and the Man in the Mirror, Mr. Hall's experience and the experience in Sand Shield The rebellion of Boruf in the city was a bloody lesson that made Rex cautious, and it was difficult to truly trust any force in Lorenzo. Although many tentacles of the Final Cultists have been caught from the darkness in the past two months, these side details did not help Rex. Instead, they made him renovate the concept of the mysterious organization of the Final Cults again and again. , thus feeling a lot of confusion and confusion. The reappearance of the murderer also occurred more than a month ago. The attack destroyed many villages, including a wealthy town. Although it did not kill all the living people, it also caused a large number of casualties, and even two Nobles died because of this??. Rex didn't know about it at first, he just heard about it from rumors. It happened that he encountered a bottleneck in investigating the Final Cult, so he could only put aside the matter at hand for the time being and turn his attention to But let¡¯s look at the unexpected incident of the murderer. After more than a month of investigation and visits, Rex had roughly figured out the situation. He originally thought that Gergil was not dead. Although he did not think that Erwin would deceive him, he still felt vaguely uncomfortable in his heart. But now that Erwin has confirmed it, the sudden appearance of the murderer is probably not Gajeel. The murder methods are the same, it should be just a coincidence. "So, you came all the way chasing the murderer?" Erwin asked. Hearing that such a thing happened, he was quite shocked. Although he and Susan walked slowly, they were not there because there were no people along the way. The reason for staying here is that I have never heard such rumors. Rex nodded, and then shook his head. Regarding his move, Erwin and Susan were a little confused, but they did not interrupt, but waited for him to speak, because Rex's expression looked like Some look like they don't know how to speak. "How should I put it? This is a murderer who is stronger than Gejir, and at the same time more cunning and difficult to deal with. I have analyzed the location of his murder, but I came to the conclusion that this guy almost randomly selected his target. And this guy should know that I am chasing him, and he will kill wherever I follow him. This is simply a provocation" Rex showed a wry smile on his face, and said with some self-deprecation: "So I am indeed chasing him. "He's here, but I don't even know where to look for him." "Erwin, for a confident person like Rex, has been unable to find out the whereabouts of the murderer for more than a month, and is still investigating. The final believers are also in a bottleneck, which will surely be a big blow. Erwin suddenly remembered the relationship between Gajeel and the Terminus Cult. When fighting Gajeel in Sand Shield City, Erwin recommended that Gajeel had the characteristics of an evil cursed creature and suggested that he was probably created by the Terminus Cultist. came out. And now that a murderer with exactly the same killing methods as Gejier has appeared again, is it also the work of the Final Cult? "What do you think of the relationship between Girgil and that group of people?" Erwin suddenly asked Rex. That group of people naturally refers to the cultists. When Erwin talks about this group of cultists, he always subconsciously replaces them with that group of people or that group of people. This is probably a reflection of his being too cautious. Rex was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding why Erwin would ask this. He pondered for a moment, and then replied: "It should be one of them, right?" "I don't know if it is one of them, but I learned from Ian From what I learned, Gegil used to be a very ordinary person. He should not have the ability to be absorbed into the organization by that group of people, because such people are everywhere, so I think Gegil is not so much one of them. It would be better to say that they "created" it on purpose." Rex frowned as he thought about Erwin's words, and then his eyes lit up as if enlightened, and he asked in a deep voice: "What do you mean The murderer who appears now was also created by that group of people? "This guess is actually not difficult to come up with, but when Rex first arrived in Sand Shield City, he preconceived the idea that Gejir was a Christian of the end. One of them, and when this new murderer appeared, he always thought that Gejir was not dead, and the branching of his mind was restricted, so he thought hard for so long without getting an answer. Now he was reminded by Erwin. React immediately. "Maybe so. You can start investigating from this aspect, and maybe you can catch one or two big fish." Seeing Rex's bright eyes, Erwin knew that he had figured it out. joint. "If I had known better, I wouldn't have wasted so much time investigating and came directly to you." Rex sighed softly, but with a clear goal, his mood was much smoother. There was no clue in the investigation, and there was no way to deal with the murderer here. The combination of the two was enough to make him feel defeated. However, now the two are obviously involved. If Erwin's guess is not wrong, then as long as the murderer is found, there will be a chance to find the final cultivator hidden behind the dark curtain. "I'm starting to regret it now. If I had known I should have tied you up and helped me by any means necessary when we were in Sand Shield City. It's so inhumane to let you run away so easily." Rex's tone He said distressedly, but he said these words in a half-joking and half-serious manner. "Hey, you don't have this idea now, do you?" Erwin's heart skipped a beat. This guy looked very calm and calm, but he might also have a cold appearance.It might be possible for a guy with a depressed heart to do something like this. However, if it was before level 10, Erwin might still be a little afraid of Rex, but now that he has obtained the title of Black Bronze Medal and entered the rank gate, Erwin's combat effectiveness has skyrocketed. It may not be worth mentioning, but it is still simple and easy to stabilize a few heads. After hearing what Rex said, Susan next to her raised her slender eyebrows and stared at Rex warily. Rex originally wanted to say something, but when Susan glared at her, he immediately laughed and stopped talking. He was still a little timid towards the girl who shot him with an arrow in the Gray Mountains. "I understand your pain now." Erwin smiled a little gloatingly, and then said, "But your face is too ugly. Could it be that these two things have hit you so hard? " Rex was startled for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile: "That's not true. I'm not that fragile yet. The reason why my face looks so bad is probably because I've been having nightmares lately. " Erwin was immediately surprised, very surprised. It's hard to imagine what kind of nightmare could torture a strong man like Rex, who has entered the gate of rank, to such a state of mental exhaustion. Facing Erwin's questioning gaze, the bitter smile on Rex's face suddenly faded, and his expression became even more ugly. He was silent for a long time, and finally said something surprising in the eyes of the two of them. answer. "If I said that I dreamed that I was this new murderer, would you believe it?" Susan's eyes widened, while Erwin held his breath for a moment, and the expression on his face gradually became serious. Because in his feeling at this moment, Rex suddenly became strange in his eyes. He still had the same appearance, but he felt like a completely different person, one whose whole body was shrouded in black mist. people. This strange situation made Erwin almost reach out to touch the Zantetsu Sword hanging at his waist. But when the atmosphere suddenly fell into stagnation, Rex suddenly changed back and became the cold young man with some independent characteristics who believed that he was not qualified to be a demon hunting knight. He sighed softly and stood up from his seat. "You want to leave now?" Erwin asked in shock. "Yes, I don't have much time to waste. The Holy See gave me only one and a half years for this mission." Rex put on the armor and cloak that he took off, and followed Erwin and Susan After saying hello, he turned around and left. "Wait a minute." Erwin suddenly stopped Rex, turned to him with a puzzled smile and said: "Susan and I have set up a mercenary group. If you need anything, please come. Take care of our business. " Rex and Susan were both stunned, because Erwin's words had clearly stated his willingness to help Rex, although he did not clearly say that it was about killing people. It's a crazy thing, but it's still a matter for the ultimate believers. Rex was stunned for a long time. Erwin saw the looseness in his eyes for a moment, but then he became firm again, shook his head and said, "If I have the chance, I will." Maybe not long after, Erwin will You will understand why Rex refused his help tonight, but at this time, his eyes still showed confusion and confusion. ¡°Isn¡¯t that right? You¡¯ve thrown me so many olive branches, but now I want to pick them up but you don¡¯t want them anymore? Rex smiled, then turned and left, but when he was about to walk out of the tavern door, he stopped and turned back to Erwin and said: "I haven't congratulated you for officially entering the rank gate. I am very happy now. I didn't do anything to you in Sand Shield City, otherwise I might have been the one who was tied up. " "If there is a chance in the future, I don't mind you giving it a try," Erwin replied. Rex waved his hand, and then disappeared into the night outside the door. The bleak back figure actually gave Erwin a feeling of no hesitation. Rex, who had been away for two months, hurriedly appeared in front of Erwin and Susan, and then left in a hurry, as if he had appeared in front of Erwin for the first time, doing things without hesitation, Then it quickly disappeared like ice and snow illuminated by the sun. The difference is that Erwin tried so hard to avoid Rex before, but now Rex has rejected Erwin's companion for some unknown reason. ¡°Could it be that you were indifferent to me at the beginning, and now I am putting you beyond your reach? At night, Erwin and Susan slept in the same bed. Because it is winter now, even if Erwin is extremely strong, it is impossible for him to sleep on the cold floor, so the two of them can only squeeze into one bed, and because this bed is a single bed, so The two of them also had to?Closely together, at least the touching of arms is unavoidable. "If it were normal times, Erwin would have to be distracted. He is a normal man after all, and Susan is a girl with outstanding appearance and figure. What¡¯s more important is that the two of them have a tacit understanding of each other. It would be a shame for the audience if nothing happens on such a night together. It¡¯s a pity that the news brought by Rex completely dispelled Erwin¡¯s desire in this regard. Whether it was the emergence of a new murderer with the same killing methods as Gajeel, or the strange behavior of Rex, Erwin was unable to sleep, and his divergent thinking drove away all the sleepiness. "Are you worried about those things?" Susan couldn't sleep either. She went from blushing and panicking at the beginning to feeling calm. She noticed that Erwin was tossing and turning, so she couldn't help but ask softly. "Maybe, I'm a little concerned" Erwin sighed slightly, "I always feel like that guy Rex is hiding something from us." Susan turned her head, and with her astonishing eyesight, she saw Erwin. Erwin frowned, and she didn't know what emotion was driving her. She suddenly plucked up the courage, stretched out her hand and hugged Erwin gently, not caring that his arm was deeply buried in her tall chest. , and said softly: "Don't think too much, okay? Let's talk about tomorrow's things tomorrow." Erwin couldn't see Susan's cheeks that had turned red. He just felt the tenderness and warmth of the girl next to him. This gave him the urge to turn around and hug her tightly. But in the end, the two of them still couldn't do anything that they liked. But the next day, a group of people came to the door.
