The vicinity of the cemetery is very deserted. Except for the road that has been cleared, most of the area is covered with white snow. Only some tenacious thorns were exposed to the snow, but they were half dead.
The entrance to the cemetery is at the end of the road, and there is a dead forest ahead. In other words, this is a dead end road. There are two symmetrical monster statues on both sides of the entrance of the cemetery. Jenkins' knowledge cannot tell him what these are, but it is very likely that they are local customs in Shire.
Above the stone arch is naturally the holy emblem of the great righteous god [The End of Death], which means that this cemetery is blessed by this righteous god, and the cemetery guards in charge are also sent by [The Church of Death and the End of the World].
Along both sides of the arch, elderflowers, datura flowers, poppies/poppies and local specialty black human face flowers are deeply engraved on the stone and connected in a string from top to bottom.
And on the side of the stone pillar on the right, the deep inscriptions were painted with a paint mixed with silver powder:
[This is our end, their beginning.]
Jenkins didn't walk through the front door when he came here in the fall, so of course he couldn't see any of this. Looking up at these contents this time, my heart suddenly became extremely heavy for some reason.
This is of course an illusion, he shook his head, and then stepped on the gravel road in front of the door.
This cemetery mainly buries those poor people who died in foreign lands and could not be transported away, so few people come to worship. After entering the park, it was also deserted, blown by the biting cold wind, and saw graves surrounded by small roads, and square stone tombstones were embedded in the ground, telling the last message of the dead.
It's really very quiet here, only the sound of the night wind blowing through the treetops, the crows on the branches and the sound of chocolate licking their paws echoing in my ears. After walking a few steps, I saw the old man walking out of the gravekeeper's hut carrying a shovel. He was extremely thin, but he carried the shovel without difficulty. The upper body is a thick black coat with some mud on the hem, and the lower body is wearing dark blue overalls with pockets all over it.
The knees on both sides are patched with leather to prevent excessive wear here.
Judging from the color matching of his abilities, this old man is the grave keeper of the Orthodox Church. In the autumn, according to the information of the huntress, he fell seriously ill. At that time, another young man was guarding the place.
Jenkins still maintains his black robe camouflage, with a red and tan striped Maine Coon on his shoulders.
He didn't panic, but greeted generously:
"Hello, sir, I'm here to find..."
"Find it yourself."
The gravekeeper didn't even hear Jenkins say the name of Silver Jasmine's apprentice make-up artist, Prior Jones.
He seemed a little anxious, and walked directly past Jenkins with a shovel:
"I still have something to do. Those damn rats are going to eat up my stuff! If you want to visit someone, just go directly. The area near the south is the new grave in the past two years. Oh, these poor people, can't Back to my hometown... ”
As he said that, he walked towards the east of the cemetery. From a distance, it seemed that there was a large area of crops that could grow in winter.
"It's luck..."
It would be better if no one disturbed him. Jenkins watched the gravekeeper really go far before continuing to move forward. Of course he knew where his target was, but if he found it directly, he would definitely be suspected.
Strolling around in the cemetery, he lowered his head to check the words on the tombstone, and then approached the position of Prior Jones step by step. During this period, I actually saw a deceased person whose surname was also "Williamette". Judging from the information on the tombstone, that poor Oakland Williamette died last winter because of a pine nut.
"Coincidentally, ahem, Coconut, have you learned your lesson? Be careful when eating in the future."
"Meow~"
The meaning of the cat's words is unclear.
Unlike when I came here in autumn, there were no weeds and only snow beside Miss Jones's tombstone. Out of respect, Jenkins knelt down and took off his gloves, helped her clean up the tombstone, and threw away dead leaves and branches, and then took a breath and sat on the snow-free ground, ready to find out.
"Chocolate, watch my body!"
He said to the cat, and then used the ability of [Dream Soul Leaving Body]. The soul itself flew out of the body and sank straight into the ground.
As Jenkins' level continues to rise, the time he can temporarily go out of his body becomes longer and longer. So this time there is no need to be in such a hurry as in Autumn, but after the spirit body entered the ground, it did not induce new divinity like last time.
It is very interesting to observe the world in this posture, bit by bit. After consciously touching the brand new wooden coffin, Jenkins subconsciously felt something was wrong.
"Um?"
Boom~
This is a sound that only Jenkins can hear. He never expected that with his current "quality" of soul, he could be bounced away by a huge force.
The seemingly ordinary coffin underground, when Jenkins touched it, exuded a luster that can only be observed in a spirit state. A divine light appeared before Jenkins' eyes, but before he could continue to observe, the light pushed him away.
Feeling a blur in front of his eyes, Jenkins returned to his body again, and the ground in front of him did not show any abnormalities, as if it was just a dream.
"Chocolate, what happened just now?"
"Meow~"
The cat walked up to Jenkins obediently, and drew messy symbols on the snow with its paws. Jenkins stared for a moment, then felt ashamed that he had been foolish enough to decipher a cat's secret language.
The light just now didn't hurt him, it just pushed him back to his body. Combined with the most obvious iconic divine light, it seems that the false god had special treatment for the coffin before leaving to stop "thieves" like Jenkins.
From this point of view, even if Jenkins digs out the coffin, it is very likely that he will be injured by an unexpected magical defense.
Only God can hurt God, and Jenkins is quite aware of this.
"This is troublesome... What the hell is going on..."
The main purpose of coming here is to confirm the underground corpse. Judging from the end of the Six Gods' Nolan incident, except for special possessions, all the bodies used by the gods followed the gods to unknown latitudes.
Therefore, the corpses left here are very suspicious. What's even more suspicious is that Jenkins, who was ignorant at the time, actually gained divinity from it.
