Angor quickly realized who Alex was talking about.
Apart from Alex and Father Brumlang, there was another person who lived in the Kruje Church.
It was Sister Tessa, who worked in the flower field every day.
According to Alex's hints, Sister Tessa was the one who controlled the undead, and also the one who took away the flesh and blood of the corpse. And the reason why the iris field could bloom so well was because the fertilizer used by Sister Tessa was the corpses of the dead.
Angor didn't have much of an impression of Sister Tessa.
Thanks to Alex's reminder, Angor recalled seeing the undead manipulator before. Angor didn't see her face, but he did notice something special about her: a hunchback.
Sister Tessa was a bit younger than Brumlang, but she was still in her sixties. She was short and hunchback, which was exactly the same as the figure Angor saw.
So the "she" mentioned by Brumlang really was Sister Tessa.
Angor found it interesting. Of the two people who were closest to Alex, one wanted to kill him but gave up, while the other wanted to kill him but couldn't.
And Alex, who knew nothing, lived with these two people for three years.
"How are you going to kill her?" Angor asked curiously.
Alex didn't answer. He glanced at Father Brumlang, who was still talking to Viscount Vega, and left the mansion.
"You're going to kill her now?"
"She doesn't know that Father Brumlang is still alive, and she doesn't know that I already know the truth. It's the best time to do it."
"We don't know how strong Sister Tessa is yet. Isn't it too rash to just kill her?"
As soon as Angor spoke, they heard a commotion coming from the street.
Alex exchanged a look with Angor and quickly ran toward the source of the commotion. People on the street were running for their lives. Alex stopped someone and asked about the situation.
The man quickly told Angor what happened.
Someone was screaming from a room on the third floor of a building not far away. Someone ran out of the building and said that someone on the third floor was killed.
Right now, the residents of Guste Town were all in danger. They were like birds startled by the twang of a bow. As soon as they heard that someone had been killed, they immediately began to run out.
This was what caused the commotion on this street.
According to the narrator, the neighbor of the victim seemed to have seen the murderers. There were two of them. One was a tall man in armor, and the other looked like a child.
The neighbor vividly described that the tall man's back looked a bit like Knight Raven who had died a few days ago. As for the child, he wore the same hat as Anthony.
To the listener, this was only a symbolic description. But to Alex, this might not be a symbol. The killers were Raven and Anthony!
In the midst of the commotion, Alex looked up at the small building in the distance.
The window on the third floor was pitch black, as if there was nothing there. Suddenly, a head with a pale face slowly rose from the bottom of the window sill.
It was a boy who was not even ten years old. He looked down at the fleeing residents with a sinister expression.
When the boy noticed that Alex was looking at him, his lips curled into a sinister smile. Immediately after, his figure disappeared.
"It's Anthony." Alex suppressed the creepy feeling in his heart and said softly.
"Creating such a huge commotion in the middle of the day. Just as Father Bran Lang said, their goal is to turn Guste Town into a ghost town, a real Asura Field!" Alex said in a low voice, "Perhaps my decision was a little arbitrary. But if we continue to drag this out, it will be impossible to maintain the false balance that Father Bran Lang is pursuing."
"Why don't we give it a try?"
Alex had already made up his mind. He quickly ran towards the Kruje Church.
However, before his plan could be carried out, an unforeseen event came first.
Just as Alex was about to cross an alley and enter the Kruje Church from the back door, a little boy wearing a flying hat blocked his way.
The little boy suddenly raised his head, revealing a terrifying face.
His face was pale, and the area around his eyes were wrinkled strangely. His dark eyes were filled with hatred.
"Anthony …" Alex called out the boy's name in a soft voice.
"Heehee. You saw me, so you must come with me." Anthony chuckled eerily. His eyes were filled with bloodlust.
Alex couldn't help but take a step back. But suddenly, he felt a chilling wind behind him. He looked back and saw a tall knight blocking his way.
Anthony showed up. The knight's identity was obvious.
It was Rayven!
Alex didn't expect that before he went to find Sister Tessa, the other party had already begun to have ideas about him. Judging from Anthony's words, it was because he saw the girl?
So, he had been tricked by Sister Tessa first. She had used the rules to make the undead come to him?
Whatever the answer was, it didn't matter now.
In this narrow alley with only one person, he was blocked by Anthony in front of him, and Knight Raven sealed the road behind him. What should he do?
Alex tightened his grip on the dagger and tried to recall the battle experience he had not long ago.
If he wanted to meet Sister Tessa, he had to solve this problem first.
But could he succeed?
It wasn't Anthony who attacked first. Instead, it was Rayven with a sword on his back. He tiptoed and rushed at Alex with great speed.
Alex turned his body instinctively and dodged Rayven's attack. But before he could figure out his next move, he felt a chill around his legs.
He looked down and saw Anthony holding onto his leg. Anthony stared at Alex with his horrifying face and gave him a malicious smile.
A gust of wind came!
Knight Raven's second attack arrived at this time.
Alex was one of those people who kept calm the closer he was to a critical moment. He bent his body into a bridge. After dodging Rayven's attack, he took out the dagger and stabbed it into Anthony's nape.
Anthony screamed in pain as a large amount of black smoke gushed out from his nape.
Alex took the chance to kick Anthony away. However, he was still too slow. Rayven had already closed in.
At this critical moment, Alex supported himself with one hand on the ground and nimbly retreated, barely dodging Knight Raven's attack. However, as soon as Alex dodged Rayven's attack, a new danger appeared.
A woman suddenly descended from the sky and appeared beside Alex.
"Sangsy Tailor?!" Alex looked at her face in surprise. It was Anthony's mother.
However, unlike the mournful expression she showed several days ago, Sangsy Tailor's face was now filled with hatred. Her eyes were completely black. Apparently, Sangsy Tailor had been killed and turned into an undead spirit!
Sangsy Tailor's appearance startled Alex for a moment. It was also this brief moment that caused Alex to fall into a desperate situation.
Anthony, who was injured by Alex's dagger earlier, fell to the ground again and hugged Alex's legs.
Sangsy Tailor held a pair of ghastly scissors in her hand and tried to cut Alex's neck.
Rayven did not back down either. He swung his longsword at Alex.
Being surrounded by so many people, Alex felt like he had fallen into an abyss of evil. He could not move no matter how hard he tried.
In the nick of time, he made his move.
An illusion blocked the vision of the three undead spirits. At the same time, a gentle force pulled Alex out of the trap.
After Alex escaped, he looked back and saw that the three undead were like headless flies, constantly moving around in a very small area.
Knowing that they were trapped in an illusion, Alex did not hesitate to turn around and leave.
It would not be easy to kill these undead spirits. Alex's goal was not to kill them. As long as he killed Sister Tessa, Father Bollenlang would get the authority to control the undead spirits.
Therefore, the undead spirits were not his target.
Alex originally planned to quietly attack Sister Tessa, but because of the obstruction of the undead, Alex's plan collapsed ahead of time.
He arrived at the small garden behind Kruje Church.
Sister Tessa was holding an oil lamp with an iris flower in her hand. She was looking at Alex with a pair of malicious eyes.
There were more than twenty undead spirits in the small garden, all of whom were glaring at Alex with venomous eyes.
Sister Tessa smiled sinisterly at Alex. She turned around, took the oil lamp, stepped into the void, and disappeared. Clearly, Sister Tessa had gone to the death space.
As for the remaining twenty or so undead, they slowly approached Alex with a strong sense of evil.
