Chapter 2159 Orc Curse Chapter 21
"Inspector?"

Dali Feizhuan curiously sized up the seemingly ordinary-looking nun. Admittedly, her appearance was exquisite, but just like how everyone in this other world was very good-looking, this Teresa was not beautiful enough to attract his attention.

What he was curious about was why this inspector would take the initiative to talk to them and even reveal her identity. Judging from her ordinary nun attire, the inspector must have been hiding her identity. Only by observing as an ordinary person could she see most of the truth.

“You all acted openly and honestly, and you didn’t deliberately lower your voices, so I heard you.”

Theresa handed the remaining half bowl of Laba porridge to another young nun who seemed not to have eaten enough. The young nun was quite embarrassed and repeatedly said that she was already full, but the rumbling sound from her stomach betrayed her lie.

Lying and deception are certainly against the doctrine, but the doctrine of the Holy Cross is quite flexible. The little nun lied and endured hunger so that Teresa could be fed, so the sins of lying and deception were offset, and even increased.

The little nun's lie was exposed, and she had no choice but to accept the Laba porridge. However, she did not keep it all to herself, but instead used the bowl as a small pot to share it with the other children.

The young nuns in puberty need a lot of food, but the children need even more.

The Holy Cross Kingdom is the largest kingdom, possessing abundant spiritual wealth, yet it faces the problem of not being able to satisfy the most basic need for survival—being fed.

"I want to know, you're not looking for the Fallen Archbishop and the Fallen Legion Commander to gain merit and improve your status, are you?" Theresa looked at the little nun and the children, her eyes filled with a complex emotion.

"no no."

Dali Feizhuan shook his head repeatedly, glanced at Kate Cat for her opinion, and then revealed their purpose.

"We want to go to the orcish region."

"The orc region?" Theresa was stunned, but quickly found a common ground between the two completely unrelated things.

"I see. There are no longer any living fallen archbishops or fallen legion commanders, but there are still some who are dead."

"Dead? A ghost?"

"Yes."

Undead are a rather special yet common type of monster. Regardless of their level, they possess resistance to physical attacks, and only specific purification attacks can inflict effective damage.

However, there are exceptions, namely, the spirits of those who were priests in life. Turning a priest into a spirit is as difficult as making fire burn in water, but once successful, it will inevitably possess extremely special characteristics.

Immune purification is just the most basic part of it.

Theresa didn't try to be mysterious; she took out a rather old parchment map and handed it to Dali Feizhuan.

"As an inspector of the Holy Cross Church, I know a lot about fallen archbishops and fallen legion commanders. In most cases, the fallen will be destroyed and purified, but there are always exceptions."

“This is the exception.”

"The failure to defeat the heretics and degenerates is a huge stain, so this matter is kept secret."

“Oh~” Dali Feizhuan nodded, holding the parchment scroll. “If it’s the dead, they are mostly confined to a region. As long as you hide the things in that region, you can prevent others from finding out.”

"Then why did you give it to us?"

"To repay your generosity, to trust your abilities, and... the results you desire."

Teresa didn't give the group a chance to ask any more questions, leaving only a brief reply before slowly walking towards the church. Although she wasn't walking fast, the group knew that asking them wouldn't yield any results.

"The result we want."

The expression on Dali Feizhuan's face was strange. Their ultimate goal was to increase the world reputation of players as outsiders, but to be honest, it wasn't that important to the Holy Cross Kingdom.

Raising world reputation can actually benefit players, and the Holy Cross Kingdom can gain benefits after that.

So what was the purpose?
Kate the cat patted the arm of the man who was throwing bricks, reminding him not to think about it too deeply. Even enemies can move forward together for the same goal.

Hesitating now will only slow them down.

"That makes sense." Dali Feizhuan stopped thinking about it and opened the parchment scroll.

This is a map with a coordinate marked. After comparing it with current maps that have clear geographical markings, it was found that the location of this coordinate is on the border between the Holy Cross Kingdom and the Orcish region, and is even closer to the Orcish region.

Fortunately, this place is very close to their city, and they can get there quickly even without using a teleportation tower.

"Walk."

……

Theresa sat on a pew in the church, her head bowed as if she were dozing, but circles of blue light swirled in her eyes, containing fragmented images.

The appearance of strangers is an uncontrollable variable that will make all calculations and analyses chaotic and make it impossible to predict the trend. After observing for a year, she became even more convinced of this conclusion.

The fact that the Outlanders defeated the Titan God demonstrates their macro-level benefit to the world, while Outlanders like Mighty Brick are micro-level benefits. However, the Outlanders who are currently tracking Mighty Brick and his group are utterly evil.

These murderous strangers are like termites and fungi, silently destroying a tall building. What's even more terrifying is that they can infect other strangers, constantly increasing their numbers.

Therefore, she judged strangers as enemies, but even if they were enemies, they did not necessarily have to be enemies. Before both sides were exposed, they could cooperate.

She needs to use her strength to fly bricks and her group into the orc territory, then discover the orcs' secrets, reveal the truth, and ideally defeat "that" in the orc territory.

Even if she fails, she can expose the location of "that" to all the strangers, who will then chase after it like sharks.

"Only by defeating that thing can the plan against the orcs continue."

Theresa held her face, her already cold expression made even more inhuman and broken by the blue light in her eyes.

"It's been a thousand years, it should be much weaker by now."

"Until then, we cannot let these murderous strangers get in their way."

Theresa pushed her finger forward, and the illusory dominoes fell down, triggering a chain reaction of collapses, resulting in an accident that happened to the murderous strangers.

She had mastered the method of orchestrating a series of events without revealing herself.
