Chapter 36: A Useful Merit

Su Xiao leaned shirtless against the bed, his talent had been successfully awakened, and the burden on his shoulders had been lightened by half.

Now, as long as he completes the main quest, this derivative world is basically over. Unfortunately, he has not yet been able to perform the main quest.

There are many indications that most of the contractors in the Holy Grail world have been killed, at least in the case of the derivative world contact platform.

Except for Su Xiao himself and Brother Wusan, the contact platform is like a haunted version. This is the first time Su Xiao has encountered this situation. In the past, the derivative world contact platform was very lively.

If what Brother Wu Umbrella said is true, then there are only four contractors left in this derivative world. Su Xiao is not a contractor, he is a hunter.

Regardless of the final purpose of the three people, it can be seen from the actions of the three people that they are clearing the field. If Brother Wu Umbrella dies, will the next one be Su Xiao?

Su Xiao didn't think the three high-level contractors would let him go, so before the three of them attacked him, he had to gather all the power that he could gather.

Checking the time, there are still four and a half hours left to meet Brother Wusan. After a moment of hesitation, Su Xiao took Boubowang and others out of the villa, and the group rushed towards Fuyuki City Center Street in the dark.

...

At night, the city of Fuyuki is silent, with dim street lamps illuminating the streets. Due to the recent number of homicides and homicide cases, Fuyuki City at night is like a ghost town.

A car drove into the center street, Su Xiao was driving in the main driver, Boubo Wang was in the co-pilot, Matou Sakura was in the back seat, as for the berserker Matou Kariya, he had already been stuffed into the trunk by Su Xiao, then Belongs to the 'Prime Seat'.

The car stopped in front of the cathedral on Center Street, and Su Xiao knocked on the church door after getting out of the car.

Boom, boom, boom...

Su Xiao knocked for a long time, but no one opened the door. Just as he was about to enter the church by special means, footsteps came from behind the door.

"Who?"

The old priest's slightly tired voice came from inside the door.

"it's me."

Su Xiao's voice shocked the old priest in the door.

"Could it be that..."

The old priest hurriedly opened the door. At this time, the old priest was wearing pajamas and had a piece of eye mucus on his eye socket.

"You... entered Ryuudou Temple?"

The old priest stared at Su Xiao with disbelief in his eyes.

"Um."

"Come in."

The old priest turned sideways and motioned Su Xiao to enter the church. After entering the church, the old priest washed up in a hurry. When he appeared in front of Su Xiao again, he was obviously very energetic. The two sat opposite each other in the church.

"There..."

The old priest hesitated, Su Xiao took out a necklace and placed it on the wooden table in front of him.

"This necklace."

The old priest's voice was a little hoarse, and his hands began to tremble. He tried to pick up the necklace several times to confirm, but he didn't seem to have the courage.

"Seuss is dead."

Su Xiao's words seemed to give the old priest a heavy blow. The old priest's eyes were lowered, and the originally bright eyes became dull.

"Did she... go away in pain?"

The old priest put one hand on his face, his voice choked, and transparent liquid spilled from his fingers.

"When I killed her, she had turned into a monster, orphan of resentment, Hughes. As for whether it was painful or not, it's okay."

"The Resentmen... orphan."

The nearly 60-year-old old priest choked up and was speechless.

"Can you tell me about the situation at the time, does she still have... human characteristics?"

Seeing the appearance of the old priest, Su Xiao remembered the human mentality of Hughes. At that time, Hughes was sensible, whether in human state or monster state.

"Without human characteristics, when I saw her, she was already a monster, irrational, unable to speak, and perhaps her consciousness died long ago."

"Really...as long as she doesn't suffer too much...that's great."

"She ended up dying under that gun and turned into a green-haired beauty, about twenty years old, very beautiful."

The old priest stopped talking, just held his eyes with one hand. After a long time, his mood became calmer.

"If... no, nothing if, this is the fate of people like us, and I'm just the lucky one."

The old priest got up and returned to the church after a while. At this time, the old priest was much calmer, but his eyes were still a little red.

"Sorry, I've lost my temper, my relationship with Hughes... used to be lovers, huh~"

The old priest breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm surprised that you can sneak into Ryuudou Temple to kill Hughes. What about other resentful creatures?"

"It was a peaceful death."

In fact, Su Xiao didn't tell the truth, those who resented the death of the creatures were miserable, and were evaporated into a gaseous state by the high temperature.

"All dead?"

The old priest was stunned and seemed to know Su Xiao again.

"This... Ryuudou Temple has already been blown up by me."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

The old priest sat up straight and seemed to hear something absurd.

"literal meaning."

This time, the old priest was not calm, and stood up with a hoot. The importance of Ryuudou Temple is beyond words. It was the core area of ​​the Fifth Holy Grail War.

"Is there any problem with the mountain below Ryuudou Temple? Is there anything abnormal there? Like spewing magic power or..."

Su Xiao waved his hand.

"There is no problem with the magic in the ground. I sensed it when I closed the spiritual barrier."

The old priest was visibly relieved.

"Father, this time I helped the Church of the Holy Church to solve the trouble."

Su Xiao tapped the wooden table with his fingers.

"Yes, Hughes used to be the agent. This matter should have been resolved within the church, but the bastards of the Magic Association suddenly intervened, saying that the resentment of creatures is worth researching, and it's just water in the brain."

The old priest handed Su Xiao a list. This list was made of parchment, very fine, with the logo of the Holy Church on the back.

[Hint: The hunter triggers the 'Kotomine Church' Merit Exchange Mechanism, and can use the Holy Church Merit to exchange for items on the list. The existing Holy Church Merit: 2219 points. ]

These sanctuary merits are all the proceeds of Su Xiao's bombing of Ryuudou Temple. Except for Hughes, all the resentful creatures in Ryuudou Temple do not drop treasure chests.

Su Xiao took the list, and a list appeared.

Su Xiao liked all these three things. All of them needed 2,300 points of Sanctuary Merit, but he only had 2,219 points of Sanctuary Merit, which was embarrassing.

Su Xiao looked at the old priest. After noticing Su Xiao's gaze, the old priest raised his eyes and stared at the ceiling.

"Father..."

"Cough cough cough..."

The old priest coughed like an asthma attack.

"Hey~ it's useless at my age, what did you say just now?"
