The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 28: Religion and religious ceremonies

After agreeing to Catherine’s request for participation, Martin reached out to open the folder on the workbench, took out several documents from it, and gave it directly to Leo. Perhaps in his opinion, neither Nelson nor Jason was only an affiliate. It's just a product, Leo is really doing things.

   Leo is also not polite. After receiving the documents, he casually found a chair to sit down and looked at it carefully by the light on the wall.

  The documents produced by Martin are all homicide case records. The scene sketches are drawn by the painter. Although they are scribbled, they can help people understand what the scene looks like with the written records.

These homicides all occurred in the cage city. According to the place name of the place, the location is not fixed, but all the homicides are the same. The eyes and heart of the victim have been dug out, and the heart has been placed. A mouse has two insect cocoons in its eyes, and both the mouse and insect cocoons are dead.

   As for the digging heart and eyeballs are not around the deceased, judging from the traces of the scene, someone took the heart and eyeballs away after the death of the deceased, and placed mice and insect cocoons.

The strangest part of these cases is that all the people who recorded this case thought that the heart and eyes were dug out by the deceased himself, and that the deceased was the first to dig the heart. In this order, then it means that the deceased is digging out When he was in the eye, he was already dead.

   "Are these cases from a few years ago?" Leo noticed the date on the document and frowned: "Will you let me help you break these cases?"

   "No, these cases are just the cause," Martin took out several more documents and handed them to Leo.

   Leo handed over the documents to Nielsen and Jason, and took Martin’s documents and read them carefully. Jason and Nielsen could not help but exclaimed after seeing the contents of the documents.

   The date of the file in Leo's hands is now last winter, and this spring, the closest date is ten days ago, this time the victim is no longer an adult, but a child.

   The same technique, the same arrangement, but this time the items are no longer simply mice and insect cocoons, but the so-called raging rats and two moths on the workbench.

   "How about moths?" Leo asked.

"It's gone." Martin explained: "The moth is made of ice, and it's gone after a long time." Then, he handed all the remaining files in the folder to Leo, saying: "In fact we are looking for You don’t want you to investigate these cases. We have already investigated these cases. This sect is the most suspected,"

   followed Martin's finger and looked at it. I saw the document that reads the Aknayazong of Ibon Church.

   "Is it a cult?" Leo did not look down, but asked directly.

   "No, it is the church filed by the Orthodox Church." Martin shook his head and explained.

   Leo carefully recalled the religion of this world and found that the religion of this world is both tolerant and strict.

  As long as the denomination is filed by the Orthodox Church and included in the Orthodox list, then this sect can preach to anyone in any place, any country.

  Once the sect does not receive permission from the Orthodox Church, it will be regarded as a cult. The army of the Tribunal of the Orthodox Church will be dispatched to completely destroy all those who believe in this cult, and governments of all countries will actively cooperate.

  As for the Orthodox Church, although the core is the belief in the God of God, it is not so much a religion as it is another mainland parliament. Because before the establishment of the mainland parliament, when the disputes of various countries needed mediation, the Orthodox Church was responsible for mediation, and the twelve cardinals of the Orthodox Church were all the people stationed in the country to manage the Orthodox Church. Formed, so governments of all countries have no worries about the enlargement of the Holy See.

After hearing Martin’s reply, Leo continued to look down at the data in his hand. Although he can quickly remember all the content on the data through the auxiliary brain system, it was too shocking. He still turned page by page honestly. Look.

  According to the data, the Yborn Church is a very old multi-god church. It first appeared in the Black Forest Swamp. They mimicked all the creatures that can be seen in the swamp, such as the **** of the snake and the **** of the toad.

  Although this church is very old, it is a pity that the gods they believe in are too weird, so they are not liked and not widely spread. It is almost impossible to see the missionaries of this church except in the Black Forest Swamp.

   The Aknaya Sect is an emerging sect in the Iborn Church. The **** of this sect is named Aknaya, and is also known as the God of Thousand Eyes and Heart.

  Although the church official said that the Aknaya **** was an ancient **** who was sleeping in the past, but now he woke up, so they wanted to create a new sect to spread the Aknaya faith.

But in fact, more people think that the so-called Aknaya God is the administrator of the church and wants to make more young people become the people of the church of Iborn, deliberately created such a strange shape, the doctrine is simple and easy to understand Gods.

   Although the appearance of this deity is very strange, there is nothing unusual about the doctrine.

In the teachings of Aknaya, it is mentioned that the truth of this world is covered by secular prosperity. Only by believing in Aknaya can we use his thousand eyes to see through the mist and see the truth of the world. Those who see through the truth of the world can be eternally sublimated.

At the same time, the doctrine also mentions that the truth of this world is not mortal can bear. Anyone who sees the truth of the world will be shocked by the will of the world every time they peep. Only faith in Aknaya, with the help of his thousand hearts Only strength can sustain the impact again and again, otherwise the soul will die in the impact and the flesh will be endlessly tortured.

  After reading this passage, Leo couldn't help but think of his own experience, and those experiences seemed to be able to coincide with the content of this doctrine.

  After thinking for a while, Leo thought that Martin and what he said were similar to the content of this doctrine, so he put down the information in his hands and asked Martin very seriously, "Are you also a believer in Aknaya?"

   "Yes." Martin nodded and said, "Or more correctly, the Aknaya sect in Cage City was built by me."

   "Now? Have you lost your church?" Leo poked mercilessly at Martin's pain, saying:

  Martin frowned, and said, "In order to avoid conflicts and avoid the division of the church that has grown so hard, I chose to avoid it."

  Leo Jian saw the information aside and asked, "So what do you think now, do you want us to help you get the church back?"

"Haha!" Martin suddenly laughed when he heard the words, and the laughter was filled with obvious ridicule, even Jason could hear it. For this, he even prepared to teach him a lesson, but he was calmed by the look of Leo. Stopped.

   "Martin." Catherine stopped Martin with some blame.

"Okay! Okay! I don't laugh anymore!" Martin raised his hand and made a gesture of betrayal, saying, "I always thought I was the most arrogant person in this world. I always like to make me change the world, I Those who are able to do big things hang in their mouths, but I did not expect that there is a person as arrogant as me here."

   "Did I say something wrong?" Leo didn't get angry because of Martin's manner, but asked the factory instead.

"Do you know how many people believe in the Aknaya Church in Cage City?" Martin asked, and without waiting for an answer, he directly revealed the answer: "More than one million people, accounting for three-thirds of the total population of Cage City One. Your Excellency Leo, what do you think you can do to help me regain control of this sect of more than one million people?"

  Leo asked: "Since it is not for sectarian control, what are you for?"

"For the order we finally established." Martin put his smile on his face and said very seriously: "You are not a cage city, you don't know what cage city was like before, here is hell, the whole cage city is devouring some hope Monsters, the people who live here are either monsters or swallowed. Now after years of slavery, we have finally established a complete order in the cage city. Everyone’s life is getting better and better. But want to destroy this order, what do you think I should do?"

   "Is cage city so bad in the past?" Nielsen said suddenly.

   "Worse than you think." Catherine also felt very painful in the past, and Shen Sheng responded.

   "It's okay, it's over." Nielsen couldn't help but stretch out his hand to grab Catherine's hand, but changed direction on the way and became slapped on her shoulder.

   Leo ignored the ambiguity of the men and women next to him, but looked at Martin and asked, "What do you want us to do?"

"My people and everyone in the church know that when you go to the church, you will only be noticed by everyone. You can't find anything at all." Martin said: "But you three are different, you are all born faces, you can pretend to be Workers who lived in cage cities, and mixed in as new members of the church, to see if they could find out who did these things, it would be better if they could find evidence, so that I could convince the three great heads of the church, let me Directly intervene in this matter."

"From the above information, it is clear that the person who has done this has been living here for a long time, and what he is doing is a kind of religious ritual, and it is more likely that someone is helping him deliberately cover up." Leo filled Questioning asked: "Don't you ever suspect that the three high priests in your mouth were doing it?"

   "Impossible." Martin said incomparably: "It is absolutely impossible for them, please don't ask me why, I can only say that I am very clear that the three of them are absolutely impossible to do such a thing."

   Leo was silent for a while, and said, "I need more information, such as the geography, roads, etc. of Cage City, as well as the information inside and around the church."

Hearing Leo’s request, Martin said unpleasantly: “The information you want is not even me, it needs to be collected temporarily, and even if it is collected, there will be a lot of them, which can’t be read in a day, let alone It’s time to grasp the content of the information. If you don’t want to cooperate, it’s refusal. Why use this method to make me difficult?”

"Sorry, my request was made by some strongmen." Leo asked after apologizing, "However, we are not familiar with the cage city and the location of the sect. Even if we get in, we want to be in a day. , It’s difficult to investigate what happened."

"I have also considered this point." Martin quickly answered, "Originally, I was going to send someone to enter the church with you, and he would help you identify the road. But now Catherine has taken the initiative to join in, let Catherine It’s best to lead you to rent, and she can cover you up if necessary."

   Hearing Martin’s words, Nelson frowned and was about to say something, but was caught by Catherine on the side, and shook his head implicitly.

"As for the investigation, it is not as difficult as you think. We have investigated the stronghold for those guys to perform religious ceremonies, but the geographic location of that stronghold is a little special. It is not convenient for me and my people to get close. .uukanshu.com but you can easily sneak in, and then you can get used to finding something that can be used as evidence, so one day is enough."

   Leo thought for a moment and said, "Since this is the case, I have no problem."

  Martin asked: "Where are the two? What else can you ask for?"

   Nielsen shook his head very simply, said: "I have nothing to ask."

   Jason said recklessly: "We should always get some guys in hand? If something happens, it's easy to kill them!"

Martin froze for a moment, nodded and said, "Of course this is needed. After all, Mr. Dodd's musket is impossible to bring in, and we need to prepare some other weapons. But I hope that if some of them are accidentally discovered, Try not to do it, because even if you are caught, I have a way to rescue you, but if you do, it may cause some accidents."

   "Relax, we know what to do." Leo answered for the other two.

Seeing that the matter had been settled, the crowd began to split up. Catherine took Nielsen away to prepare the identification and clothing that the three needed, while Martin took Leo and Jason out of the clinic and walked in the narrow building. After walking back and forth between the aisle and the aisle a few times, the two were taken to a small building near the ground.

   This small building is cluttered with various mechanical parts. In relatively empty places, there are some machines such as welding machines and cutting machines that can be seen at a glance. Another thing that attracted Leo’s attention was that the small building was decorated with electric lights. Although there were only two light bulbs, and the lights were dim, they kept flashing from time to time, but this is indeed a light bulb powered by electricity.
