I upgraded and added points in the Holy Inquisition

Chapter 278 277. Embrace madness? ridiculous……

The last time I remember this is probably when Lloyd and the others came over for questioning, almost as soon as they entered the forest area, the supervisor used his fingers to draw a strange and complex pattern in the office, and then wrote quickly next to it. .

It said that people from the investigation team came again and brought an extra young man from the Holy Inquisition. Is there any risk of being exposed? Do you need to do it in advance?

It seems that they don't plan to attack the three investigators today. It seems that the timing is wrong. The ceremony has not yet come?

After a few minutes, the pattern twisted and changed and turned into a line of text, telling the supervisor to prioritize confidentiality and caution in everything, not to take risks, but not to fail.

He also emphasized that the alien space in the storage area was a very important node for the sect and a very valuable 'property' that could not be lost, and asked the supervisor not to create extraneous matters.

So after weighing the situation, the supervisor made a decision to attack the three investigators first, capture and imprison them, and then sacrifice and please them when the day of the ceremony arrived.

As for the inquisitor who looked very young and tender, for the sake of safety and fear of retaliation from the Holy Inquisition, we let him go for the time being and found some excuses and covers to fool him.

It can be seen that this guy is not stupid, and he knows the importance of the Holy Inquisition Tribunal and the "Anjuju" investigation team.

At this point, the memory fragments received by Lloyd ended.

After that, there was a fight between the supervisor and the scholar Kandin, and he arrived in time and took action decisively.

When Lloyd arrived at the battlefield, he happened to see the flames burning on Kandin's body. He was anxious for a while and quickly launched the [Distortion Realm] to control the supervisor's actions first.

But this guy was actually very powerful, and the distortion effect on his perception was not obvious, and it didn't even distort his logical thinking. He actually realized the situation very quickly.

It’s just that the supervisor didn’t think of it in the direction of [distortion], and thought it was the power of the [intellect] system.

Obviously, this guy has a few brushes...

Judging from the madness value provided by killing him, it is already a danger level of 5. No wonder it can suppress Kandin, who is only at level , without the ability to fight back.

He can even catch bullets with his bare hands, and his body's strength reactions are obviously extremely strong, even beyond Lloyd's imagination.

The result of Lloyd's [probing] at that time was that three of the four attributes were '? ? ', indicating that it has exceeded the upper limit of what [Inspiration] can detect, which is 140 points.

Only [Rationality] has only 80 points.

And his system was the first time Lloyd heard of it: [Nirvana]

It sounds like that kind of extremely ferocious and vicious power...

Regarding the level of threat to oneself, it is directly represented by a huge bright red skull, indicating that it is extremely dangerous.

Lloyd suspected that this might be because his dehumanizing way of practice allowed him to absorb a lot of forbidden knowledge without having to take into account [rationality], so his combat effectiveness was stronger than that of ordinary criminals, making him extremely difficult to deal with.

Or maybe it was because of the mysterious existence of "Enjoying the Feast of Madness", which gave him some kind of shelter and support behind his back, allowing him to permanently acquire body functions far beyond those of ordinary people.

The key is that in addition to these, this guy can also control the workers in the lumberyard to help...

Fortunately, Lloyd still had [Distortion Realm] available, which directly enveloped the two workers who were 'summoned' by the supervisor, and then used the effect of the distortion ability to cut off the supervisor's control over them.

So the two workers instantly fell to the ground, motionless, and turned into brain-dead vegetative states.

But if Lloyd didn't have the ability to influence other people's abilities, and he was targeted and entangled by these two workers armed with logging axes and chainsaws, he would be in trouble.

Although they are all ordinary people without extraordinary power, if they swarm forward with weapons, it is really difficult to deal with third-level extraordinary beings, and they will also have to bear severe moral pressure...

All in all, this guy's actual combat effectiveness is probably no less than that of a fifth-level powerhouse, and this can be proven by the insanity value he provided at the end.

If faced one-on-one, it would definitely be an extremely dangerous and difficult enemy. Lloyd felt that he might not be able to deal with it.

But fortunately, he is not a kind person. Before he could completely break away from the effect of [Distortion Realm], he immediately turned on [Offensive Speech], and then activated [Gift Distortion]

So at the same time, the effects of the three skills were all at level seven, plus the power of the two systems hit the guy directly, forming a kind of 'critical hit' effect, and he was hit and lost on the spot. The ego directly penetrated his rationality and began to lose control and fall.

what the hell? Am I quite aggressive?

Lloyd is quite satisfied with the effect of his ability, and the effect is outstanding as soon as he takes action.

Especially for the [Offensive Speech] skill, it was not only much easier to use since there was no need to speak dirty words, but it also emptied the 'recycle bin' in his mind, removing all the messy useless debris. Throw it out.

This feeling is very refreshing, just like the refreshing feeling of smashing all the hard-earned crystal stones and stars into the new wife's card pool.

Although he somewhat took advantage of the sneak attack from behind, there was definitely no need to talk to him about moral principles when dealing with this kind of evil heretic.

Ha~ Among the enemies I have encountered, your level of trouble is among the top five.

Unfortunately, I am still more skilled.

Lloyd briefly summarized it in his mind, and suddenly felt a little ironic and funny.

In front of scholars, this guy keeps saying, "Abandon reason and embrace madness," but will he actually degenerate into a monster?

No matter how rare the power system is, how scary [Nirvana] sounds, and how exaggerated the three attributes and body functions are, once [reason] is really abandoned and alienated in the direction of a monster, it will still be vulnerable.

Moreover, his so-called "hugging madness" is basically killing innocent civilians and asking them to "hug" them for him.

Haha... Ridiculous.

He is not even as good as the crazy lunatic like the consultant. That guy knows that he cannot give up his humanity and cannot kill people indiscriminately.

At this moment, Lloyd strongly agreed with the butler's evaluation of these criminals in his notes.

Really a bunch of gutter maggots and rats.

Lloyd cursed inwardly.

But another question came to mind one after another.

After watching the memory fragments to the end, I still couldn't find the father who loved to dig graves.

Maybe this was a story made up by this group of people from the beginning in order to find three third-level transcendent beings as sacrifices, right?

But from the very beginning of [Identification Divination] to the later [Person Locating Divination], everything points to the result, right?

And the interpretation of [Omen] was also very accurate, and the matter was resolved quickly.

So what's wrong?

It can't be that there's something wrong with my divination, right? This skill is already level 6, so it should be very reliable.

Lloyd couldn't help scratching his head. He originally planned to continue to look at the fragments of knowledge and skills left by this guy, but Kandin next to him completed his channeling at this time, staggered violently, and almost fell down. .

With quick eyes and quick hands, Lloyd supported him and asked again:

"How is the situation?" "This is really... terrible... This guy actually belongs to the [Nirvana] system? Shouldn't all the people in this system be dead long ago?"

"And the sect behind him, 'Chasing Madness'. I remember that it was wiped out by the two major sects of Order and Brilliant decades ago. Why did it suddenly resurrect?"

"And the mysterious existence they believe in...that thing..."

Kanding seemed hesitant to speak, then shook his head violently and said:

"Forget it, let's not talk about this for now. Let's rescue Jaxon and the others first. They were all captured."

Lloyd couldn't help but think back to the snakeskin sacks dragged by the two workers before...

"I probably know where they are. Come with me. Can you still walk?"

"Don't underestimate me, young man, this is just a small scene to me."

Kandin said, straightening the monocle on his face that was almost crooked to his nose, and followed Lloyd quickly back to the lumberyard.

Although this scholar may be a little impatient with his combat prowess, his physical endurance is surprisingly abundant and he can keep up with Lloyd. He even has the energy to ask about the situation:

"how did you find me?"

"After wandering around outside, I accidentally got lost and returned to the lumberyard. I happened to see two suspicious-looking workers walking deeper into the forest. I felt something was wrong, so I followed them."

Lloyd answered truthfully.

He did not lie, he just didn't tell the whole truth.

"So that's the case. It seems that I was lucky enough this time. Fortunately, I met you and fortunately invited you to join me temporarily."

After listening to this, Kanding couldn't help but sigh in a low voice, and then continued:

"This insidious guy arranged for two workers to follow me from the beginning, saying they wanted to help me lead the way. But as he was walking, he suddenly took out a shovel and wanted to hit me on the back of the head...Jacquesson and the others should That’s how I was caught…”

"Fortunately, I reacted quickly enough, escaped in time, and subdued the two workers, but the villain took action himself, and I was no match for him..."

"He has at least level five combat power. If he hadn't wanted to capture me alive, he could have easily killed me long ago."

As Kandin spoke, he couldn't help showing an expression of lingering fear, and said again:

"Anyway, thank you for saving me and your help. My investigation team and I will always remember it."

Lloyd, with his usual humility, replied:

"It's just a little effort. After all, I have always been an outstanding young man who is willing to help others."

Kandin couldn't help but was speechless for a moment, and opened his mouth as if he wanted to complain...

"By the way, you actually subdued those two workers? How did you do it?"

Lloyd asked again very curiously.

This time, he can be regarded as seeing the combat effectiveness of the [Redemption] system.

As the steward commented in his notes, it is a system that is completely unsuitable for combat, and I cannot bear to fight against them...

Probably if they want to activate their abilities to attack, they may burn themselves to death before others are dead.

This may be because [Salvation] is the first extraordinary system that humans have mastered, and it has many unreasonable and imperfect points.

When the [Redemption] system appeared, mankind was still in a precarious doomsday era, so the overall capabilities and effects of this system tended to assist, treat, and fight against mental pollution. The frontal combat effectiveness was subject to many restrictions, which made people anxious. .

So Lloyd was curious, how did this scholar deal with two strong woodcutters?

But Kanding didn't seem to think this was a problem worth paying attention to, and asked in confusion:

"Those two are just ordinary people? I am also a third-level person after all, so why can't I deal with them?"

"Then how did you deal with it?"

"Strength, speed, combat experience, plus hand-to-hand combat skills."

"what???"

"What's so strange? You've been in a strong system like [Veto] for too long, right? Don't you even know the normal fighting methods of extraordinary people? Even if you are in your [Veto] system, don't you still have to use guns and weapons? Psychic blade? But your marksmanship is really..."

"Ahem, didn't you say that? There's something wrong with the rifling..."

Lloyd explained again awkwardly.

Kandin seized the opportunity and asked:

"By the way, how did you deal with this guy? Why did he suddenly stand still and then start to lose control and fall?"

Lloyd didn't speak, he just unbuttoned a button of his uniform, revealing the pendant and vest inside, and also showed off the square ring on his finger.

Kandin noticed the spirituality emanating from it, and his eyes suddenly opened slightly.

"You actually carry three holy objects? No wonder..."

So Lloyd didn't need to explain at all, he just needed to show his equipment and others would understand.

With high-end equipment like holy objects, no matter how abnormal your behavior is, others won't think twice about it.

Kandin was also very sensible and did not ask him about the specific functions of these holy objects, because this is a very private question, involving the core trump card of a transcendent, and asking about it is a very taboo offensive act.

He just said in passing:

"I didn't expect that I really underestimated you. With these three holy objects alone, your combat power is stronger than the three of us combined. No wonder you have the confidence to come here alone."

As he spoke, his face showed unconcealable envy, and he said:

"It seems that you must be a very outstanding young man who is highly valued by the Holy Inquisition Tribunal. I have been in this business for twenty years and have not been able to get a piece of trump card-level equipment like holy objects. But It’s really enviable…”

"It's not bad, I just work harder to let others know how good I am."

Lloyd still answered so humbly.

Kandin couldn't help but was speechless for the second time.
