How did I become the Lord of Evil Gods?

Chapter 10 The missing third party! !

"If you have anything to say, please wait until you get to the guard hall to explain it!"

"Wait!" Yun Mu also reacted at this time and quickly explained: "Although I killed it, I did not kill this person!"

"Weren't you the one who killed him?" the guard girl glared at her fiercely.

"I" Yun Mu was slightly stunned and wanted to explain, but for a moment he didn't know where to start.

After thinking about it, she decided to start with something simple.

"This man died a long time ago, but his body was transformed into..." She paused for a moment: "It was an undead-like creature. This guy just attacked me. I fought back just out of self-defense!"

"And it's not illegal to kill the undead!"

There are undead in this world. As long as there are many dead people, there will always be a few corpses coming back to life from the graves under the constant influence of death.

Although more than 30 years ago, the Frost Kingdom issued the "Burial Regulations" prohibiting large-scale burial of corpses, and all corpses buried in public cemeteries must be cremated.

However, there are a lot of opinions among the people that the body must be kept intact after death, otherwise it will be regarded as incomplete.

Most of the rich nobles and wealthy businessmen are unwilling to cremate corpses. What's more, some of them will deliberately create an environment suitable for the breeding of the undead in order to achieve the purpose of resurrecting themselves or resurrecting their ancestors.

In addition, orphans like Yun Mu, homeless people, and most poor people simply cannot afford the cost of cremating a body and then burying it.

As a result, the implementation of the "Burial Regulations" is extremely difficult, and it has even given rise to gray professions such as corpse collectors in disguise.

But no matter what, a regulation has been implemented for more than thirty years, but it still has some effect. Nowadays, it is difficult for people living in cities to see the undead.

It is precisely because of this that after hearing Yun Mu say these words, the girl's face showed a very obvious look of confusion.

"Undead?"

"Absolutely." Yun Mu nodded quickly, then kicked the corpse on the ground and turned it over.

"Although I don't know who you were before you died, I still want to say sorry to you first." She apologized silently in her heart.

After turning the body over, Yun Mu looked at the guard girl and said:
  "If you look carefully at this corpse, does it look like a normal human being?"

After the body was turned over, the skin that had previously been covered by clothing was exposed.

"Ok?"

The guard girl noticed the abnormality of the corpse. She squatted down, took off the light-emitting device hanging on the chest of the guard uniform with her right hand, put it close to the corpse and looked around.

"Mummy murder case!?"

The moment she saw the surface features of the corpse clearly, an idea flashed in the mind of the guard girl.

She suddenly looked up at Yun Mu, patted her shoulders with both hands and asked:
  "You are the third party who disappeared? The person you confronted just now was the murderer of the mummy murder case!?"

"What disappeared third party?" Yun Mu was stunned on the spot when he heard this title. It took him a while to figure out the whole story.

"If I guessed correctly, I should be right." She nodded first, and then continued: "And the woman who confronted me just now is indeed the murderer of the mummy murder case."

"Ah - why did I let the prisoner escape!"

After receiving Yun Mu's affirmative answer, the guard girl squatted on the ground with regret on her face.

"Is it too late to chase him now?" She seemed to be asking Yun Mu.

"It's probably too late." Yun Mu shook his head.

The terrain in the sewer is complex, and this time is enough for the other party to take several forks.

And to be honest, with the opponent's strength, she alone, and the guard lady in front of her, if they really catch up, they probably won't be there to give the opponent extra food. "Let me tell you." Yun Mu wanted to ask why the other party was in the sewer, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that this sentence was a bit strange, so he decisively changed his words:
  "Where are the other guards? Why are you alone?"

"My teammates aren't here."

After hearing Yun Mu's question, the guard girl shook her head, and then took out a certificate from her pocket with a brass gear printed on the surface and two silver long swords crossing each other above the gear.

Under the certificate, the five large brass characters "Extraordinary Guard" were clearly written.

The guard girl opened the certificate. On the first page was a gray-white headshot, followed by her name and position.

Rita Ssilaya, this is the girl's name.

And position.
  "Reservist of the Extraordinary Guard?" Yun Mu looked at the other party with a strange expression.

When I first saw the certificate, I thought it was very powerful, but it turned out that it was just a reserve.

And what the hell is the name of the Extraordinary Guards? Just looking at it makes me feel an inexplicable sense of shame!
  "Ahem, this team is currently only experimental, recruiting members on a small scale. The name will be changed in the future." As if seeing Yun Mu's thoughts, the guard girl, no, Lita coughed lightly and explained.

"Other than me, Frostfall City currently has a formal member from another city. I just came here today to assist the ordinary guards in the investigation."

After a pause, Lita continued: "You should have guessed that we found traces of you at the scene of the mummy murder case, and then used police dogs to track the scent you left, all the way to the entrance of the sewer. "

"But the smell inside was so complex that the police dog finally lost its way."

"We had no choice but to send people into the sewers to search. As a result, they worked all night and found nothing. In the end, they all went to rest."

"And I have already half-stepped into the extraordinary realm, so I didn't go back and wanted to try my luck."

When she said this, a smile appeared on Rita's face.

"It turns out that I am very lucky."

She had been attracted by a sudden roar. After arriving here, she first saw the headless body lying on the ground and the two people confronting each other.

So he shouted out the words that made both of them raise their hands without hesitation.

"So" Yun Mu raised her right hand, and the silver-white handcuff hung alone on her wrist.

"Can you help me untie this thing?"

"Haha. This." Lita laughed dryly and explained: "I borrowed this from other guards, and I don't have the key. Although it can be unlocked by force, I have to compensate for the damage, so..."

"You understand." She winked at Yun Mu slightly.

"Forget it." Rolling his eyes helplessly, Yun Mu put down his right hand and said, "It won't have any impact anyway."

Shaking her head, she looked at the corpse on the ground: "What are you going to do with this corpse?"

"Take it back, at least confirm the identity of the deceased." Rita said halfway, then looked at the head soaked in the sewage.

"The head" hesitated for a while. Just as Lita gritted her teeth and planned to walk into the sewage, she saw Yun Mu walking to the head with a calm expression and directly lifting it out of the sewage with one hand.

"I'll take it." Yun Mu sighed slightly.

With the influence of the memory of her predecessor, she can still tolerate this level of things, as long as she washes up a few times later.

　PS: Corpse collectors are businessmen who specialize in purchasing corpses. They will buy dead corpses at cheap prices.

　　They are then resold at high prices to necromancers who need corpses, or to some wealthy people who need organ transplants.
