Your Lord Has A Screw Loose?

Chapter 105: Chapter 105: The Town Full of Suspicions

?

As Andy was being led away, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Although he might be facing a prison sentence, it was still better than being dead.

Meanwhile, Qin Muye was communicating with the mayor. The mayor was curious about the pumpkin-headed evil spirit but also felt fear and recognized the boning knife as belonging to a psychotic murderer from outside Akam Town.

"I always thought the pumpkin-headed evil spirit was a myth. When I was a kid, my grandma used to scare me with it."

The mayor naturally had to show up regarding the presence of a murderer in the town. After all, Akman Town was not very large. The law enforcement bureau had also communicated with the mayor, especially since it involved the newly arrived priest.

"Well, haven't you seen for yourself if it's just a legend, Mr. Mayor? This thing is not simple," Qin Muye said with a light laugh.

"Speaking of which, who are these people..." The mayor quickly shifted the topic to Tian Qi and Evangelical Spirit Monster, inevitably suspicious given their sudden appearance.

"Some people who must not be named, their main task is to help Akman Town cleanse some supernatural existences and suppress certain things in the church," Qin Muye vaguely explained.

The mayor's face changed, and he then asked in a low voice, "Is Akman Town really in such serious trouble?"

"This time, besides the pumpkin-headed evil spirit, there is also a witch living outside the town, the Romani girl who gave them warnings, these are all suspicious points. Plus, you've seen the boning knife too, which I encountered before I arrived, belonging to a murderer who liked turning people into sausages."

"Aren't these issues severe enough?"

The mayor was rendered speechless by these words and could only force a wry smile in the end.

"I've always been curious why Akman Town, being in such a state, hasn't reported it to the council to have soldiers dispatched to clean it up," Qin Muye countered.

"Sorry, Father Andrew, these matters involve council secrets, just like the people you brought cannot be discussed," the mayor explained falteringly.

"Okay, I understand, and I won't delve into this, but I hope, Mr. Mayor, you won't pry into the church's secrets either. After all, curiosity can kill, especially when it comes to dangerous secrets," Qin Muye said, warningly taking advantage of the situation.

"Don't worry, Father Andrew. Divine matters to the divine, and human matters to the human. If you need anything for the exorcism, you can come to me anytime, and the entire town's governmental system will cooperate with you," the mayor reassured him profoundly.

The other party did not show any displeasure or disdain; instead, he was prepared to have Akman Town cooperate with Qin Muye's exorcism activities, as this was related to their very lives. Who knew if there were still monsters that could easily take one's life lurking around? "Then, thank you very much, Mr. Mayor," Qin Muye would not refuse, as he had called the authorities precisely to obtain official support-why else would he fight alone?

With official backing, Qin Muye would gain more social resources support, at least not lacking in operational funds.

"Just, Father Andrew, our Akman Town can only support you with intelligence or financial support. As for military support, I'm afraid we can't do that. Our law enforcement personnel are not abundant, and there are no military forces stationed, so..."

"You can be completely assured on that front, Mr. Mayor; they will solve the problem of force," Qin Muye picked up on the mayor's implication-that they could give money and assistance, but facing those monsters was out of the question.

A moment ago, through Andy's testimony, the law enforcers had found Winnie and Brant's bodies, whose state of death was extremely gruesome, still missing many parts.

The personnel who went to collect the bodies had never seen such a spectacle; although car accidents are tragic, at least those aren't caused by monsters.

Thus, everyone facing the pumpkin-headed evil spirit's head and spine couldn't help but feel a sense of fear. This creature's killing methods were truly ferocious.

Additionally, according to the scene investigation and the expressions of the deceased, the victims hadn't died from the torture right away but rather suffered for a long time before dying from excessive blood loss.

However, this was a quite normal death. The pumpkin-headed evil spirit was a revenger. For its enemies, it would definitely be merciless; otherwise, what would be the point of revenge -out of love?

That would be nonsense.

"Since that's the case, I won't disturb Father Andrew's rest then. If there's anything, just contact me." The mayor talked with Qin Muye for a while longer, and after the law enforcers had completed the scene photography and evidence collection, he finally rose to take his leave.

"I'm really sorry for troubling Mr. Mayor so late. Allow me to see you out," Qin Muye escorted the mayor and the group of law enforcers out of the church, and his smile then faded from his face.

When Tian Qi saw this scene, he found it peculiar, "Could it be that the mayor has a problem?" "Yes, and it's not a small one. He played his part well, but unfortunately, I don't play by the book," Qin Muye said.

With so many incidents occurring in the town, the fact that the mayor was still firmly in his position and that the council had not issued any disciplinary actions was the biggest issue. Think about it—a small town surrounded by murderers, monsters, even within the town itself, and a large number of tourists disappearing without any accountability. How could there be no problem?

A simple review would reveal many illogical issues.

Okay, even if the mayor has powerful backers, with so many tourists dead, wouldn't the families of the tourists go to the police for an investigation?

Unless their power could cover the entire Federation, otherwise it would be impossible to cover everything up—just the number of fatalities at the hands of the psychotic killer Cecil would be enough for most mayors or even the local government system to have a complete change of personnel.

Moreover, even if one has a powerful backer, there can't be absolutely no movement at all. The council members who hold power within the Federation are not all united; there certainly

are factions.

In such cases, it's completely akin to a sword against the council members associated with Akman Town, and yet now, nobody is using it, which is quite interesting.

"Master, I will go kill him," Tian Qi felt that since there was a problem, he might as well eliminate the opponent.

Upon hearing this, Qin Muye frowned, "After you go back, spend less time with Demon Blood and learn more from Black Hand. Don't always resort to killing. What good does killing do for us? You need to learn to be more cunning and treacherous, not a brute."

It was understandable for Demon Blood not to prioritize the Knowledge Attribute and be more aggressive, but Tian Qi should at least inherit the cunning aspect of the Divine Seed to

be qualified.

"Yes, Master, I will transform as soon as possible," Tian Qi thought for a moment before

responding.

"Good to know. After all, you are here to ensure my safety, you can't be reckless. If you were, and fell for strategies like luring the tiger away from the mountain or making a feint to the east and attacking in the west, what would happen if I were left alone? I'd have to flee," Qin

Muye cautioned.

A bodyguard must fulfill the duty of protection.

Now that Tian Qi was slightly less powerful, he couldn't deal with all possible dangers to protect Qin Muye, so he could only assist by being more cunning and crafty.

After handling that, Qin Muye began studying the head of the pumpkin-headed Evil Spirit.

The thing really just looked like a pumpkin head, and he even cut off a piece of the pumpkin to

study.

From the feel and the smell, there was nothing particularly special about it. If there was anything unique, it was that the pumpkin seemed to be its core.

The other parts possessed physical qualities exceeding those of ordinary humans. By classification, it approximately had the strength of a third-tier Soldier, starting with an attack and defense of 30, and also possessing numerous skills.

However, it didn't reach the level of a Hero unit.

Moreover, it felt no pain, did not fear death, and had various other characteristics, making it virtually invincible against ordinary people. Even firearms wouldn't work unless the head was

blown off.

But since it was a summoned creature, if it died, it was probably possible to bring it back by replacing the pumpkin head.

It was just unknown what the cost would be. If it was reasonably priced, Qin Muye wouldn't mind raising a pumpkin-headed Evil Spirit.

"I wonder when that witch will come to find me. It would be perfect to ask her directly how this thing is summoned; maybe I could get one myself," Qin Muye murmured to himself.

The mess in this small town was too much, but for Qin Muye, it was good news, as exploring the diversity of species was quite valuable.

Perhaps researching it could even be applied to the modification of Spirit Monsters, like augmenting the Spirit Monsters' innate deficiencies with a strong body. Eventually, having skills, Attributes advancing together, crafting a Spirit Monster on par with the Divine would

indeed be interesting.

Moreover, achieving sufficient results could further enhance the potential of Spirit Monsters, enhancing their growth ability.
