Qin Ran's face was incredible. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The Shadow Church, although he rarely heard the old nun talk about it, this did not mean that Qin Ran did not know the influence of the Shadow Church in the copy world in front of him.

In the era of church rule, the reason why the Church of Light was not a monopoly was because of the existence of the Church of Shadows.

The two sides are naturally enemies because of certain doctrines.

In addition, there is no shortage of fanatics on both sides, and open and secret battles are endless.

It's just that......

The Shadow Church originated from the Dawn Church, which still made Qin Ran feel incredible.

"It's amazing."

Qin Ran was stunned for two seconds before giving such an evaluation.

"Trust me, you're not the first to be surprised, and you won't be the last—the Church of Shadows was originally just a Knight of the Dawn idea: 'Guardian the Faithful with Shadows!' And with the passage of time, such a concept has been continuously recognized and developed, especially after experiencing several 'holy wars', in the face of innocent dead believers, many Dawn Knights can't accept their powerlessness, so they choose a more extreme way. ”

The old nun smiled kindly and spoke eloquently.

"That's why Gonransen has this excellent stealth skill?"

Qin Ran thought of the old knight's performance when he first met.

"Hmm."

"However, Gong Lansen is not outstanding, at least compared to the real Shadow Knight, it is only an ordinary level, have you read Gong Lansen's notes, do you have an impression of the [Dark Concealment Technique]?"

Facing the old nun's question, Qin Ran immediately nodded.

For the secret technique with the only name complete on the note, how could he not be impressed.

"When you cultivate the [Darkness Concealment Technique] to the highest level, you can shuttle through the shadows."

The old nun's description immediately made Qin Ran's eyes widen.

Shuttle Shadows?

Qin Ran, who has an extraordinary level of [stealth] and has experienced [stealth] above the transcendent, knows very well how terrifying the basic skill of [stealth] is after entering the transcendental.

Not to mention the shuttle shadows.

What happens when such an ability is used to commit an assassination?

Can you imagine the horror of walking through the corner of no one a moment ago, and suddenly after you passed, a poison-soaked dagger appeared, silently stabbing you in the back?

Even defending against others is useless.

Moreover, Qin Ran was very sure that the Shadow Church must have the means to match it.

The names of the mâchés that were smeared speak for themselves.

Under the combination of these secret techniques, the assassin may not know what happened until he dies.

"The secret techniques that have been altered in Gong Lansen's notebook are all from the Shadow Church?"

Qin Ran asked again in order to be sure of what he was thinking.

"Part yes, part not."

"There are some things that I can't confess to you, so I'd better leave it to the returning Gong Lansen to tell you everything."

The old nun looked at Qin Ran apologetically.

"No, Sister Moni, you've told me enough."

Qin Ran immediately waved his hand, and then, with a puzzled face, asked, "Those shadow knights with the Shadow Church, the war 50 years ago?" ”

"You're wondering why the Shadow Knights didn't make a move?"

"Hmm!"

"With a group of top-notch assassins who were able to travel through the shadows, it's hard for me to imagine how the nobles of the time managed to win."

Qin Ran said truthfully.

This is what he is most puzzled about.

Because he couldn't imagine how the nobles would keep him safe.

Or rather, how did the nobles deal with the Shadow Church.

"If the Shadow Church had really joined the war, it might have been able to change the war 50 years ago, but six months before the war broke out, the Shadow Church sent a secret message to all the churches, saying that they needed to leave because of 'God's will' and that the date of their return was uncertain."

The old nun sighed bitterly.

No one knows the power of the Shadow Church better than this old nun.

It is precisely because of this that the bitterness of the old nun becomes more and more helpless.

"'God's will'?"

Qin Ran frowned.

He didn't believe in this coincidence from the bottom of his heart.

"Leaving the Lady of Dawn, they believe in the 'Lord of Shadows', a neutral deity, and have a fairly tacit relationship with the Lady of Dawn, so when the Church of Shadows was founded, it was fully supported by the Church of Dawn, rather than waging a 'holy war'."

The old nun told Qin Ran more secrets.

"Are you sure the bishop of the Church of Shadows and those Shadow Knights are still ......"

Qin Ran didn't say the word 'alive', but the meaning was obvious.

"I can't be sure."

"But I can't think of anything else that would kill them, although we call them Bishops, but in essence, that one is the Pope, a powerful existence comparable to the current army of 10,000 people, and twenty Shadow Knights, each of whom is a palpitating powerhouse, when they are together, I don't think anyone can threaten them, not to mention that the will, which does carry the breath of the gods."

The old nun said.

"Is that so?"

Qin Ran did not object again.

It's just that the brow is getting tighter and tighter.

……

Somewhere inside a palace decorated with gold and precious stones.

A middle-aged man in a red bishop's robe knelt down in front of the statue of the god, which was so tall that the palace needed a separate dome to accommodate it, and prayed in a low voice.

In the huge palace, only such prayers echoed.

The guards standing around were solemn, and no one dared to make a sound to disturb them, and even the sound of breathing became extremely restrained.

Half an hour later, when the prayer was over and the middle-aged man stood up, the messenger who had been waiting for a long time delivered the secret letter.

"Oh, Miko?"

"Will there be a Son of God born in this era?"

Looking at the content on the secret letter, the middle-aged man couldn't help but be interested.

However, the exclamation was full of sarcasm.

But as he read the secret letter, the middle-aged man's brows furrowed slightly.

In the description between the lines of the secret letter, the middle-aged man felt something familiar.

But he wasn't sure.

But that didn't stop him from making a decision.

"That guy!"

The middle-aged man sneered and crushed the secret letter in one hand.

It's not kneading, it's not tearing.

With a grip on the palm of his hand, the special letter paper was shattered into fine scraps of paper.

When the palm of the hand opens again, the confetti falls like dust.

"I need to make a trip to the Dawn Church."

The middle-aged man said as he walked.

"Yes, Your Excellency."

The knight on the side bowed down to receive the order.

Ten minutes later, an airship with the germ of technology, but more of an alchemical process, lifted off from the palace.

Far faster than the galloping horse, he headed in the direction of where the Church of Dawn was.

In a shadow somewhere on the periphery of the palace, the old man who saw this scene couldn't help but squint his eyes.

Then, quickly melt into the shadows and disappear.
