The Witcher’s Nightmare Wagon

Bennett stood up from the ground, and Sigmund noticed that there was a bruise at the corner of his mouth. This was because he had the corresponding defensive ability bonus.

It is conceivable how powerful Marek's angry blow was.

"Marek!" Mr. Mayor's low voice came from the office. Across the wall, Sigmund also felt his hair stand on end. He seemed to be under great pressure. He glanced at Gildo with a little surprise. .

"Mr. Mayor, too...?"

Jill nodded.

No wonder, no wonder he can suppress Bennett and Marek.

Because he himself is also a powerful transcendent.

"You promised me not to bother Sigmund any more. We settled the matter that day."

Marek didn't move anymore, looking at Bennett who was coming from the door.

"The matter between me and him is indeed over, but what about Luda's matter?"

"What does Luda have to do with this?"

"I sent him to investigate Sigmund the evening before yesterday, but he never came back after he left. I suspect that he has died outside. A clergyman is missing. I think it is necessary to ask the person concerned face to face."

"Hmph!" Marek sneered.

"My son went to Chenxi Church yesterday, and he didn't come back today. Go and help me find it."

"Your son, how can you have a son?" Bennett's lips trembled angrily.

"I don't?"

"How do I remember that I have one?"

"You said that Luda went to investigate Sigmund, who knows where he went?" Marek didn't want to argue with Bennett at all.

Because he knows that once this kind of thing gets serious, he has no choice.

"Okay, we're talking business."

Mayor Wallace interrupts Marek.

"Let that Sigmon cooperate with the investigation, just ask a few questions, right here."

"Sir, for the avoidance of doubt, I implore the right to act legally."

"That's impossible!"

Marek directly refused, "The law is a kind of spiritual suggestion and oppression. We all know that this ability will affect the mental confusion of the extraordinary."

"Sigmund is a hunter. Being forced to bear the law will increase his mental pressure. This is extremely irresponsible. I will not allow my team members to be treated like this!"

"no way!"

Marek's attitude was extremely tough. At this moment, Mr. Mayor frowned. He seemed to want to say something, but when he met Marek's eyes, he immediately changed his mind.

Standing outside the door, Sigmund listened to what happened. He thought that after Luda disappeared, Bennett would come to the door secretly.

In order to speed up the process, he even deliberately provoked the other party in the manor, but listening to their conversation just now, it seemed that the captain had exchanged something with Bennett in private.

Let Bennett put down his hatred for himself temporarily.

Captain, captain, you are really my enemy for life. If Bennett doesn't take the initiative to come to your door, Sigmund will not find a chance to get rid of him.

After all, Bennett is a public figure, and basically only works around the Church of Dawn, unless Sigmund goes crazy and kills him head-on.

Otherwise, there is no chance to get close at all.

However, Bennett was indeed cunning, and the private method did not work, so he reported Luda's disappearance to the mayor in an aboveboard manner.

And weaving a private revenge act into a legitimate investigation, so that even Marek can't intervene. After all, this involved the disappearance of a priest.

It has to be said that Benet's approach has avoided all problems almost perfectly, which made both Sigmund and Manik lose their choice.

With a thought in his mind, Sigmund made a decision in an instant.

At this time, the atmosphere in the field was almost frozen.

Bennett looked like he was sure of winning. He believed that the mayor would make the right choice anyway, and Marek had better resist more fiercely.

In this way, some of Benet's subsequent aggressive behaviors can appear more reasonable.

"You all go out, Marek stays, I want to talk to you alone." The mayor made a choice.

But at this moment, a voice came from outside the door.

"Captain, I am willing to accept the investigation."

Sigmund looked solemn, and when he saw everyone's eyes looking at him, he immediately showed a look of embarrassment.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to eavesdrop, but since this matter involves me... then I think it's okay to simply ask a few questions."

"As for the legal statement you mentioned, Mr. Miller released me the evening before yesterday. It was indeed not a pleasant experience, but for the sake of the truth, I am willing to endure it."

"Sigmund!"

Marek gritted his teeth.

"It's okay, Captain, if you're really worried, you might as well just watch." Sigmund replied with a smile.

In fact, making this choice is the result of his deliberation.

Luda was indeed killed by him, and the body was swallowed up by the big snake. Without a person, the Oracle Church must start an investigation.

Sigmund was sure that what happened to him back then would leave no clues, but the only thing he was worried about was the Knight of the Word of the Oracle Church.

That kind of soul torture directed at the spirit is really hard to guard against.

After becoming an official Transcendent, Sigmund was additionally protected by the Nightmare Carriage. If he faced a Transcendent like Bennett or a slightly taller Transcendent, he believed that he would be able to deal with it.

But if things ferment, Marek refuses to cooperate, and Bennett attracts extraordinary people from the top of the church, then things will be difficult to deal with.

Fortunately, it is better to be here. Sigmund put on a look of being wronged for the sake of the overall situation, and cooperated with Bennett in the investigation.

That way once the results are settled.

Even if the higher-ups of the Oracle Church send other people, Marek has every reason to reject their excessive demands.

For example, the ability to allow higher-level transcendents to use precepts on Sigmund.

So on the surface, this incident seems to be Sigmund's sacrifice and compromise, but in fact it is the best way for him to protect himself.

Sure enough, after he said what he said just now, Marek's expression eased a lot.

"Okay, I promise you, but it can't be in the Dawn Church, it must be here, under the witness of everyone."

"This is not in line with the investigation process..."

"Sigmund, let's go!" Marek waved his hand and turned his head to the door without even looking at Bennett.

"etc!"

It was the mayor who was speaking, and he glanced at Bennett cryptically, and the latter understood, "Well, well, it's not impossible."

"In that case, let's get started."

Bennett smiled.

He believed that Luda's disappearance must be related to this young man, and more importantly, he had the ability to make the other party give the answer he wanted under his spiritual guidance.

"Wait a minute."

Marek spoke suddenly, and he walked slowly to Bennett's side, "Shouldn't the most important thing now be to solve the extraordinary incident that happened in the manor?"

"Put your energy here at this time..."

"Don't worry, we have found a major breakthrough, and we can lock the target this evening." Benet interrupted Marek confidently.

"Alright then." Marek opened his mouth, with a strange expression on his face. In the eyes of other people, it seems to be a kind of embarrassment without words.

However, Sigmund, who knew something about the incident, knew very well that this seemingly inconspicuous captain was digging a big hole for Bennett.
