The grand holiday celebration ended successfully, Zhenbei City was busy again, and Su Lun followed Chris to the underground world.

He is going to try to breed underground spiders. It is not easy to weave silk stockings from underground spiders, and alchemy is also used in it. The price of each pair of spider silk stockings sold from the Underdark is more than fifty gold nars. Even so, it is still in short supply, mainly because the quality of this thing is not good, and it is basically a one-time use.

Suren plans to divide an area in the underground world for breeding underground spiders, and the spider silk produced is used to weave stockings. The drow elves are very experienced in the breeding of spiders. Although the drow elves in Zhenbei City have left the underground world for a long time and have even mixed blood with humans, the method of breeding spiders has been handed down.

The subterranean spider is a large spider with a ferocious appearance. It has eight limbs, its legs are about one meter long, and its middle body is almost bigger than a dog. It's ferocious and terrifying. This spider has eight eyes and a pair of ferocious fangs on its mouth. It belongs to the kind of monster that looks like it can leave a psychological shadow.

Although this subterranean spider looks hideous on the outside, this spider is vegetarian, and they like to eat mushrooms and various fungi. Although it is poisonous, it is their weapon of self-defense. There is a silk sac in the abdomen of the underground spider, and some spider silk is produced every day. However, this spider silk cannot be used directly. They are too sticky and need to be processed before Row.

After learning about the living habits of this spider, Suren built a large farm just outside the city of Crete. At the same time, some drow elves were dispatched to be responsible for production. At present, there are more than 100 underground spiders in this spider farm, and the monthly production capacity can produce more than 300 pairs of stockings.

In fact, the raw materials for the production of silk stockings are easy to solve, but the production is difficult, and it is impossible for Hathaway to spend a lot of time and energy to process these spider silks with alchemy. Fortunately, the part of using alchemy is not a very difficult spell. The main purpose is to eliminate the stickiness of the spider silk. It took two days to make a rune array. You only need to activate the rune array to deal with the spider silk. .

This kind of work can be done by a wizard apprentice. As for weaving stockings, those half-elf weavers. Although Zhenbei City's Weaving Bureau is not well-known, it can produce silk, fine linen, cotton, etc., just because Lack of manpower production is not high.

At present, only a few master half-elf weavers can do the delicate work of knitting stockings, and Su Lun can only let them try to train some apprentice weavers.

Just when Su Lun was about to build the internal facilities of the Wizard Tower with Hathaway and others, a guard hurried over.

"My lord, the security team found some bodies in the city."

"Have you caught the murderer yet?" Su Lun said without raising his head. Occasionally one or two murders in a city of more than 100,000 people are not too many. Although Zhenbei City has strict laws, there are still people who do not believe in evil. People want to try.

"Sorry, my lord, we haven't found the murderer, and the number of dead is also a bit high."

"How much? Do you have any clues?"

"Twenty-four people! No clues have been found yet."

Hearing this number, Su Lun raised his head suddenly, "Twenty-four people were killed, and you don't have any clues."

"I'm sorry, sir, for disappointing you."

"Where's the body? Take me there."

Under the leadership of the guards, Su Lun quickly came to the crime scene. At this time, the crime scene had been isolated by the security team. As soon as he entered here, Su Lun smelled a strong bloody smell. After clearing the corpse on the ground, his face became even more gloomy and terrifying.

"All of your corpses were one-shot kills, and all of the corpses had their hearts dug out." Harrison stepped forward and said.

Su Lun came to observe. These corpses were both male and female. They were about 30 years old, and they were in their prime. There were signs of struggle on their bodies. From the signs of struggle in some places, it was obvious that some people were even alive. The heart was gouged out, and there was a lot of blood at the scene.

"Who found the body first?" Su Lun asked.

"It's Poppy." Harrison beckoned to a middle-aged man next to him who looked somewhat submissive.

"Sir, you are looking for me." Bobby nodded and bowed.

"Say again what you know about these corpses."

"Okay sir." Poppy soon recounted the matter from beginning to end, and Su Lun didn't find any clues from it.

"These people are just ordinary refugees. Who would come to kill them and dig out their hearts?" Su Lun said with a frown.

"Sir, I know some clues." At this moment, outside the isolation circle, an adventurer-like man waved his arms and shouted, but the soldier in front of him did not allow him to approach the isolation circle.

"Let him in!" Su Lun thought for a moment and said to the soldier, who then moved out of the way.

"Hello Lord, I'm Luen, nice to meet you, I'm a wanderer." The adventurer said respectfully.

Su Lun waved his hand: "I'm not interested in these, you said you have clues, tell me now."

"Uh, Lord Lord, I do have some clues about those murderers, but..." Luen said and made a general gesture.

"As long as the clues you said are true and can help us find the murderer, I can give you a thousand gold nars as a reward, how about it?"

"Deal!" Luen nodded quickly. , "My lord, I wonder if you have heard some rumors?"

"What rumor?" Su Lun asked with a raised eyebrow.

Luen cautiously looked around, and then whispered, "Heartless!"

Su Lun was a little dazed, he hadn't heard the name before. Seeing Su Lun's expression, Luen continued: "Sir, it's not surprising that you don't know, this unintentional person is actually a church of evil gods. They used to be active on the south coast, but they did something later, causing a large number of civilians. Casualties, were pursued and killed jointly by the forces of the southern coast."

"They often dig up the hearts of living people and use them to sacrifice to the evil god, so they are also called the Heartless." According to Luen's explanation, Su Lun finally figured out who the so-called Heartless were. .

These people believe in an evil god, and the favorite sacrifice of this evil god is the heart, so after defeating the enemy, these people will dig out their hearts, or sacrifice the evil god they believe in with a killing, and finally they will The heart was dug out as a sacrifice.

There are many types of gods in this world. Even the orthodox gods are divided into many kinds, such as good, evil, neutral, lawful, chaotic, etc. In addition to these gods, there are some unrecognized evil gods. These evil gods have a part of the power of gods and like blood sacrifices. Orthodox gods have godhood, vocation, and divine power, while evil gods only have a part.

Although the evil god will respond to the believers and give them power, but in the end he will swallow the power together with the believers. Even if the person who uses the evil god's power is not killed by others, the evil god will take his soul.

"You mean that those unintentional evil god believers have come to Zhenbei City?" Su Lun said.

"It looks like that!" Luen nodded and said, "I suggest you seek the help of the temple. Those who are unintentional are not weak."

"You are a wanderer, you should be proficient in tracking, and your strength is also good. Help me find the traces of the group of Heretic God believers." Su Lun looked at the wanderer in front of him and said, this wanderer is a third-level extraordinary professional, and Familiar with the behavior of the unintentional people, it is very suitable for him to look for it. As for the help of the church, Su Lun has not considered it for the time being.

The church is really willing to help Su Lun solve these evil god churches, but in this way, the church will have the opportunity to intervene in the affairs of Zhenbei City, which Su Lun cannot accept.

"Okay, but tracking also requires payment, and this task is very dangerous, I want two thousand gold nars!" Luen hesitated, nodded and agreed.

"Okay." Su Lun nodded in agreement.

Next, after Su Lun paid a commission of one thousand gold nares, Luen began to work officially.

As a wanderer who is proficient in tracking, Luen is still very reliable. After a while, he found some clues, and then started to follow the clues left behind. Su Lun followed closely with a barbarian guard. .

Following the traces that remained, everyone quickly came to the outside of the city. After arriving outside the city, the traces of the traces became more and more obvious. Obviously, after leaving the city, these people no longer hide their traces.

After a while, Su Lun suddenly discovered that they had come to a cemetery. This is the place where Zhenbei City used to bury the dead. There are also cemeteries in Zhenbei City, but those who want to be buried in those cemeteries can only be killed in battle. Soldiers or citizens paying large sums of money, ordinary refugees including serfs and monster slaves were buried outside the city.

Although Zhenbei City has just been established for less than two years, many people have been buried in this cemetery. Because it is a cemetery, it is indeed secluded and inaccessible.

The wanderer who was walking in the front suddenly stopped, and then quickly walked to a cemetery and said in a deep voice, "Look at these tombs! The tombstones have been around for a long time, but the soil in the ground has been turned over recently!"

Hearing his voice, everyone stepped forward one after another. Indeed, the soil here was not right.

"It should be the last two days!"

Luen squatted down, picked up some dirt with his hands and asked, then pushed away the weeds in front of the tombstone, and there were obvious signs of movement under the tombstone.

"At most three days ago, someone opened this tomb."
