Chapter 786 Why don’t you cry out that it hurts?
Archbishop Guerra did not wait for Lu Chen to ask more questions, and introduced: "The special night watchman has a weekly subsidy of one thousand pounds, and is awarded the title of viscount. He has his own fief, which is hereditary in the family. At the same time, he will obtain district bishop-level authority and have the ability to mobilize. Within the circle of local resources.”
As he said this, he smiled and said, "Of course, there must be written records for the exercise of authority."
He said this just to give Lu Chen a head start. He was trying to spread the pie. Of course, he would not give him this kind of treatment now.
But as a transcendent, Lu Chen may become a special-level person in the future, so there's no harm in talking about it.
Archbishop Guerra stopped here, because after that is the divine envoy level, which cannot be explained clearly in terms of subsidies and salary. It is a symbol of power and power, and worldly property cannot be positioned.
Lu Chen didn't ask any more questions, he just felt that the subsidy for the special night watchman was just that, but the fiefdom could collect taxes, which would be an extra income.
For a special-level night watchman, most of them would have to work for a year before they could exchange for a fairy-level item, which still made Lu Chen not satisfied.
He thought for a moment and asked, "Besides subsidies, do the night watchers have other sources of income?"
Archbishop Guerra was a little surprised this time. He did not expect that the young man in front of him loved money so much. You must know that a dangerous night watchman was treated very well, which was enough for a family to live a wealthy life in the provincial capital.
And why does he feel that the other party doesn't even like the treatment of a special night watchman?
In fact, Lu Chen was reflecting at this moment. If he had not chosen this identity, would it be better to choose the director of the Inquisition of the Eternal Night Church?
At least the starting point is a bit higher. Now you know without asking, it is impossible for him to become a special level from the beginning.
On the one hand, the Night Watchman's promotion assessment must have cumbersome procedures. On the other hand, it was difficult for him to explain why he was so powerful as a newly awakened transcendent.
At present, he wants to lurk in the Church of Morning Embrace to learn more secrets. He doesn't want to be conspicuous as soon as he comes up, which will miss a lot of things that he could have seen.
And this time, there are not only explorers from the origin space, but also explorers from other spaces who entered the Land Abandoned by the Gods. There are also unknown number of seventh-level existences. Considering the safety of the team as a whole, it is not good for him to cause a scene as soon as he comes. Quartet.
After thinking for a moment, and seeing that the old man had not answered, Lu Chen changed the question and asked: "Is there a method to evaluate the level in the church? Maybe I have reached the high-risk level?"
Archbishop Guerra smiled kindly, "Of course there is. Maybe finding your position will make you feel more at ease."
He thought that the young man in front of him didn't know the heights of the sky and had become a little inflated after becoming a transcendent. It would be better for him to recognize the reality clearly.
With that said, he stood up and said, "Please come with me."
Archbishop Guerra walked to one side of the room, opened a secret door, and a passage appeared, followed closely by Father Anderson.
Lu Chen stood up and followed. This was a passage that went downwards at a slant. It was about five hundred meters away. Lu Chen had probably reached the underground of the church. He didn't know what kind of structure this building had to open up such a passage. path.
Archbishop Guerra's behavior reminded him of another old man who installed an elevator in his office.
After reaching the bottom, several people walked out of the passage, and their eyes opened up to an oval-shaped space. The tunnel entrance was at a corner of the oval.
The white marble is carved with complex lines, and strange energy flows in those lines. The surrounding walls are covered with candles, bringing light to the dark underground.
At the other end of the oval space, there is a black door leaf, and an unknown aura is revealed from the crack in the door.
At this time, there was a petite nun standing in front of the door, who should be the person on duty.
When Lu Chen saw the other party, he paused slightly and continued walking forward without leaving any trace.
The "nun" was even more surprised. She almost wanted to speak when she saw Lu Chen, but after remembering where this place was, she kept her face expressionless.
Lu Chen met an acquaintance, Leng Yue, an explorer of the origin space. Unexpectedly, he also entered this native world.
Leng Yue should be a judge who was put in by the space. I wonder if he has any special tasks to perform.
"Ayue, open the door."
Archbishop Guerra ordered.
Leng Yue turned sideways, took out a simple token, and placed it in the groove on the right side of the door. Father Anderson also stepped forward, took out another token, and placed it in the groove on the left side of the door, so the door rumbled. The sound slowly opened.
A cold, crazy, and ominous breath came to my face.
Leng Yue frowned unconsciously. Even though she had been on duty here several times, she was still not used to it.
Archbishop Guerra extended his hand to invite Lu Chen to come in with him. As he led the way, he introduced: "This is an exhibition room. The night watchers also like to call it a museum. There is one under the Morning Embrace Church in every city, but the scale is different and the danger level of the contained objects is different." It’s different too.”
Lu Chen entered the room and looked at the surrounding scene. The room was not big, only about one hundred square meters. Various iron cabinets made of mithril metal were placed in a row. Some cabinets had translucent windows, and some had Totally enclosed.
He saw a rotten head in a crystal box, looking at him with his eyes open, his teeth still opening and closing, making a weird laugh.
Father Anderson wanted the ghost to be quiet, but the next moment the head was quiet, and "turned over" in the box, turning its head away, and the hair was faintly shaking.
Father Anderson is a little strange. This ghost is very dishonest and screams every time.
"This is a soul caller that was taken in a few years ago. It is a more threatening type within the security level. Because its specialization is poor, there is no night watchman option at the moment."
Archbishop Guerra introduced, looking back at Lu Chen, seeing his calm expression, he couldn't help but sigh that he was too worried. Naturally, the transcendent would not be afraid or surprised by this level of weirdness, because he had already experienced more terrifying things.
But he was also quite surprised why the soul caller stopped screaming today.
At this time, from an angle that Father Anderson and Bishop Guerra could not see, the security-level Soul Caller was carrying a few people and shivering because it had just glanced at Lu Chen.
Lu Chen looked calm and scanned the items in the room. As expected, there were all kinds of strange things, and many of them were still "alive".
The Church of Morning Embrace is really unusually brave. They actually captured these weirdos alive and kept them under the church for the night watchers to choose from!
Those believers who come to pray devoutly during the day would not have thought that the most terrifying things are hidden under their feet.
This is not a holy place at all, but a place where madness and terror gather.
"This is only the first floor. It is mainly used to contain security-level secrets. It also stores some commonly used testing items."
Archbishop Guerra walked to the end of the left side of the room, stopped in front of a cabinet, put his hand on it, strange and unknown power surged through the old man, and the cabinet was opened.
Archbishop Guerra's movements were casual, because nothing here was dangerous to him. When he retracted his hand, there was already an additional item.
It was a palm-sized little bear doll, which did not look cute. It had a pointed mouth and a pair of bright red eyes. It looked at everyone fiercely. At this time, it was held by Archbishop Guerra in his hand, and he was still struggling, "Kill." Kill you...kill you..."
The bear doll repeated words mechanically, and a crazy aura surrounded it.
"This is a cursed killing doll. It is an 'item' used to test the power level of the night watchman. It is a weird one. Even if it looks like this, if it is released, it can kill all the people in a county. It is a rare item in this level. hazardous-level containment."
When Archbishop Guerra introduced him, he exerted force on his hands, and the veins on the back of his old hands were exposed. Weird power flowed through his body, and he no longer looked so holy and peaceful.
The cursed killing doll in his hand struggled even more fiercely, and the harsh sound was like an aging tape playing, "It hurts - it hurts - it hurts -"
"One thing about this little guy is very interesting. When you apply force to it, it will cry out in pain. Depending on the strength level, the content of what it shouts will be different. The strength I am using now has just reached the dangerous level."
As he said that, he increased his strength again. The little bear doll was almost deformed from its grip, and its bright red eyes protruded outward and became a little bigger. "It hurts! It hurts! It hurts!"
"This is the peak of dangerous power. It will change if you shout."
Archbishop Guerra explained patiently.
In the dim showroom, an old man, a middle-aged man, and a young man were surrounding a little bear doll. The little bear doll was pinched in strange shapes and kept screaming in pain. I have to say that Lu Chen felt that the style of the painting was not right at this time.
The weird feeling lingering in the air seemed to have been dispelled.
Archbishop Guerra walked up to Lu Chen and handed out the bear doll, "Don't worry, it has been removed from the cursed energy by Father Anderson. With us here, it won't have time to hurt you."
Lu Chen stretched out his hand, ready to take the bear doll from Archbishop Guerra's hand.
The little bear doll had just finished being tortured by Archbishop Guerra. He no longer cried out in pain, and his protruding eyeballs slowly retracted. He wanted to continue shouting "Kill you"
It suddenly discovered that someone had changed. In its field of vision, the ceiling was moving, and then a new face appeared above its head, looking at it with a "smile".
The little bear doll flapped even more fiercely, it didn't want to change!
Weird people always see the nature of things more clearly than the humans who steal their power, and the cursed killing doll itself is a weird type that is sensitive to aspects. In its eyes, this hateful old man is sending himself into the hands of some ghost! ?
Lu Chen's hand grabbed the little bear doll. Archbishop Guerra pulled him a little before letting go. He was afraid that Lu Chen's strength was much lower than he expected and the cursed doll would break free and run away.
Puff——
Lu Chen's hand pinched the belly of the cursed doll. After actually holding it, he felt that it was not like a rag doll, but like a creature with flesh and blood, but composed of an evil and crazy will.
What surprised Archbishop Guerra and Father Anderson was that the bear doll actually stopped saying anything after being held by Lu Chen's big hand.
This is a rare situation. You must know that the Cursed Killing Doll has a bad mouth and talks a lot. As long as it is released from the container, it will keep cursing. The words "kill you" are very harmful to the Cursed Killing Doll. Very civilized.
"You can try to increase the strength, and it will scream in pain, so you can roughly judge your strength range."
Archbishop Guerra reminded that a person's grip strength can explain many problems, because when exerting force, the muscles of the entire arm are mobilized.
Lu Chen held the curse-killing doll. In fact, he didn't use any force at all, but the doll seemed to be 'dead' and no longer noisy at all.
He thought for a while and asked: "It won't be broken, right?"
"Hahaha, Mr. Lu is worrying too much, it won't happen."
Archbishop Guerra smiled heartily and waved his hand, "This thing was originally a high-risk monster, but after being 'handled' by Father Anderson, the threat has been reduced, but its resistance is still very strong, and it is not as high-risk as the monster." It’s impossible to crush it with such strength.”
He has a certain understanding of Transcendents. It is true that some Transcendents who encountered very special beings became extremely powerful after awakening, but that was just the first high-risk level. There is currently only one such example, and that is the Inquisition. Director, he is now a divine envoy-level existence.
After thinking about it, in order to reassure Lu Chen, Archbishop Guerra added: "You only need to hold it and scream in pain, which is enough to prove that you have dangerous strength."
Before Lu Chen made his move, he still felt uneasy, "This... you don't have to pay for it if it gets crushed, right?"
He can never have too much currency that can be used for authentication.
"Sure, if you can."
Archbishop Guerra smiled and felt that this was a really humorous young man.
"Oh, let me try."
Lu Chen raised his hand slightly and placed the cursed doll far away from him, slightly lower than his head on the horizontal line, and looked down at the bear puppet.
The bear puppet seemed to have turned into a real puppet, its eyes were dull and motionless.
Lu Chen started to exert his strength. Although Archbishop Guerra said that if it was broken, he did not need to pay compensation, but it was public property after all. He took his time and not destroying the items was a sign of respect for Archbishop Guerra.
In the next moment, the little bear puppet's round belly deflated, its head became much larger, and its eyes bulged outwards, as if a water balloon had been pinched and moved internally.
Lu Chen frowned. Just now when Archbishop Guerra pinched it to such an extent, the stuffed bear seemed to have begun to cry out that it hurt. Why was there no movement now?
Is it broken, or am I not using enough force?
The Cursed Killing Doll itself was extremely frightened at this moment. It felt that what was in front of it was a terrifying existence like an ancient god. It was so frightened that it lost its ability to act autonomously. How could it still dare to shout with a bad mouth?
Lu Chen let go of his hand, and the bear doll returned to its original appearance. Then he squeezed it again. In an instant, the bear doll's head grew larger and its eyes swelled outward.
Archbishop Guerra was also a little strange. Why did he feel that Lu Chen's power should be enough, but why didn't the cursed killing doll cry out in pain?
Lu Chen thought about the high-risk weekly salary subsidy, looked at the little bear doll, and thought to himself, why don't you cry out in pain?
So he increased his strength.
puff--
The cursed doll exploded.
