"Here, your stuff." Ignoring Antonla's taunts, I stepped forward and handed Maria the battle and all the things.

"Thank you." Maria nodded slightly, then reached out and took it and put it on herself.

"We kept our promise, now it's your turn..."

"Okay, what do you want to know?"

"What is the purpose of the Holy See's visit?"

"Arrest you, it says you can do whatever it takes."

"And how many of you are here this time?"

"The Holy See has dispatched almost all the main forces, a total of 1,247 people, as for the number of people recruited from various places, it is difficult to count, as far as I know, there should be no less than 5,000 people..."

"So many..."We were all shocked to hear this number, you must know that since the division of the empire, there have been very few forces that have been able to mobilize more than 5,000 people at a time, and this scale alone shows how much attention the Holy See attaches to this trip.

"And how did you deploy it?"

"I don't know."

"Ah~" I was stunned, and even wondered if there was something wrong with my hearing.

"Don't look at me like that, it's not that I'm hiding anything on purpose, it's that my superiors will change my original deployment as soon as they know that I've been arrested, so it's useless to tell you what I know..."Maria saw my confusion and went on to explain.

"But the Holy See shouldn't have known so quickly that you had agreed to cooperate with us?"

"They don't need to know," Maria smiled slightly, and from her smile I seemed to understand the meaning behind her words, that is, the Holy See had assumed from the beginning that if someone was captured, they would immediately change their deployment, and they didn't care if that person would betray them, in other words, they didn't trust anyone at all... While there is nothing to blame for this approach intellectually, it does feel a little emotionally difficult to accept, after all, when you find out that the group you're throwing their blood on doesn't trust you in the first place, it's enough to chill most people.

"So you don't know where Rustlop is?" While I was still feeling emotional, Antonla suddenly asked.

"That's right, I wouldn't have known about this secret in the first place." Maria patted the dust off her body and said calmly.

"Bastard!" Originally, Anton La was full of hostility towards Maria, but at this moment, she was even more furious when she heard that the other party actually said this, only to see it stride up, reach out and choke Maria's neck, and then press the other party against the big tree on the side.

"Are you kidding us!?" Antona said viciously, the seemingly slender jade hand actually made a burst of "crackling" sound like popping beans at this moment, which shows that it is constantly pressing, and on the other hand, Maria's face is already swollen and red at this time, and she can't stop coughing, it is obvious that as long as Antonla is willing, she can kill the other party at any time.

"Anton stop!" A few of us on the side couldn't help but be anxious, although Maria's answer just now was indeed a bit surprising, and we could understand Antonla's anger, but just because of this, Maria's life was a little unreasonable, so everyone hurriedly stepped forward to stop it.

"Humph!" Finally, Antonla still retained some sanity at the moment, and after listening to everyone's persuasion, he sneered and let go of his hand, and Maria fell to the ground at that time, coughing nonchalantly.

"Are you alright?" Seeing this, I hurriedly stepped forward to care.

"I can't die..."Maria gasped and waved her hand at me, I have to say that the physique of the "Iceberg Grim Reaper" is indeed extraordinary, and ordinary people would have been shocked on the spot if they were tossed by Anton La like this.

Seeing that she was okay, my hanging heart finally relaxed, but at the same time, I couldn't help but feel a little angry: "Since you don't know the deployment of the Holy See, why didn't you say it earlier?" Isn't that deliberately deceiving us?"

"Hehe, you only know now?" Anton on the side couldn't help but sneer when he heard this, and I immediately felt a little embarrassed.

"No... No, I... Ahem... I didn't lie to you—" Maria on the ground seemed to ease up a bit, coughing as she spoke.

"Huh?" Everyone couldn't help but look at each other when they heard this.

At this time, I only heard Maria continue: "I don't know where Lancelop is hiding... But I have a way to find him..."

When everyone heard this, they were all refreshed, and hurriedly asked, "What way?"

"This... It's up to you to cooperate...", I saw a meaningful sneer on Maria's face.

Late at night, a figure is walking in the ice and snow of the northern country with difficulty, the clouds are very deep tonight, and the moonlight appears and disappears from time to time, so you can't see the true appearance of the person who came, and you can only roughly judge that this should be a woman through the body movements... She was very slow, she had to stop and rest every few steps, and she felt weak, and behind her was a simple sleigh that seemed to be bulging with something...

"Stop!" Suddenly, a break broke the silence around her, and the woman immediately stopped.

"Please... Please help me..."The woman spoke, her voice sweet, but revealing a weakness that was hard to hide.

"Who are you?" With the sound, several black shadows slowly walked out of the darkness, and by the dim moonlight you could clearly see that they were all armed with weapons in their hands...

"Illuminati subordinates... Wadsi. Maria..."After saying this, the woman's body shook violently and fell into the snow, as if she had used all her strength with that sentence.

"The Illuminati?" Hearing this name, the dark shadows couldn't help but exclaim, and then quickly gathered around, they first checked the woman who called herself "Maria", when the other party took off the hood, everyone was shocked, this should have been a beautiful and moving face, but at the moment it was covered with scars and blood, I can't imagine what this woman has experienced before... Someone tentatively put their hand under her nose, and thankfully, the woman was still breathing, albeit faintly, and everyone rushed to her rescue, while everyone on the other side had already noticed the huge "package" that Maria was dragging behind her.

"What's in there?"

"I don't know, but it must be very important, otherwise this woman would not have been able to carry it even if she was seriously injured."

"Why do you talk so much nonsense? Wouldn't you just open it?"

"Wait, look at this package, it's all bloodstained on the outside, and God knows what's inside? I think it's better to be cautious."

"Hey, what's the danger? You are a person who is afraid of wolves and tigers in the first place, what big things can you achieve in this way!? Stay out of the way if you're afraid, let me come!"

After some argument, someone took out a dagger from his waist and skillfully cut the package, although he was full of confidence before, but when he really wanted to open the package, he still felt a little hesitant in his heart, after all, in such a dark night in the ice and snow, surrounded by a quiet and dark dense forest, a seriously injured woman dragged a bloodstained package, everything looked too weird, but the big words had already been spoken, and finally the man gritted his teeth and slammed the package open.
