In Veronica's sight, one after another the human forms of the Holy Light left the Great Hall of Light, and the turbulent divine power in the entire space finally calmed down again, and she waited until the last bishop had also left, and then turned slightly to look at St. Ivan III beside her.

"Your Majesty, do you have something to tell me?"

The old Pope was in his ornate chair, and the strength of the forcible support seemed to be fading from him, and although the glorious light fell from mid-air, the light could not reverse the flesh. The fact that his body was constantly weakening, the old man breathed heavily a few times before raising his eyelids: "Veronica, faithful child of the Lord, what do you see in the prayer room at the top?" ”

See the icy snow covering the dirty, filthy streets.

"I saw the light shining on the world, and the purity of the Lord's pasture."

See full of desire. The hopeful enter the church, the rich pray for more wealth, the powerful pray for more power, but the poor do not even have the qualifications to enter the church, so they can only kneel down on the outermost steps of the cathedral.

"I saw the people of the Lord gathered in the light of the Holy Light, and their hearts were filled with the power of the Lord and made pure holiness."

"Very well," said the Pope slowly, with a calm expression on his face, "Veronica, I'm running out of time. ”

Veronica leaned down: "Your Majesty, your body is still healthy. ”

"Don't comfort me, and I don't need to comfort me," the old man shook his head slightly, "and I will return to the bosom of the Lord, recently in an illusion...... I can already see the face of the Lord, who is standing in the middle of the kingdom of God, smiling at me, and the day of my return will be my most glorious moment...... I would never resist it. ”

The countenance of the Lord......

Veronica repeated the words in her mind, but what came to her mind was a large, amorphous crystal, the true face of the god of light still etched in her mind to this day.

"Veronica, I do not resist death, but I fear that our cause will be interrupted by my death," the old Pope's voice interrupted Veronica's thoughts, and she heard the old man speak to herself in a slow but firm tone, "Remember the revelation you heard from my lord?" ”

"Of course I remember, I will never forget," Veronica replied with a firm face, "the world is being infested with filth, the alien gods are powerless to save the world, and the only light of the gods is the ultimate salvation—the will of the Lord will guide all mortals through the final calamity." ”

"The Light is the only salvation," St. Ivan III slowly closed his eyes, "and many may not understand what we are going to do, but we must do it because the Lord has awakened us from our folly...... It is to give us the mission of saving all beings. ”

"I am willing to undertake this mission and make the faith of the Light the only ...... in this world"

"Very well, child, the Lord is pleased with your words," St. Ivan III's voice grew deeper, as if he had fallen into a dream, "the Light is the only salvation, the only ......"

Veronica leaned down beside the Pope, who was already asleep, and reverently whispered: "The Light is the only salvation......"

……

"Calculus is our way!" In the comprehensive analysis room of the Rune Research Institute, Kamel floated high, dozens of manuscript papers suspended beside him under the control of magic power, and they were densely packed with calculation formulas and data converted into curve graphs, "The lord has lit a light for us!" ”

Rebecca, Jenny, and a dozen assistants (including a few newcomers who have just been expanded in the past two days) stood nearby helplessly, watching the ancient magister so excited that he ascended to heaven (literally), until Carmel calmed down a little, Jenny couldn't help but speak: "Master Carmel, can you come down?" Ceiling...... The magic crystal lamp on the ceiling is almost burned out by you. ”

"Huh? Oh," Carmel quickly lowered his height, "I said, how do you feel hot near your head." ”

Rebecca looked at the glowing magister in front of her with admiration: "Master Carmel, you are so powerful! Did you master these things so quickly? I've been listening to my ancestors for a long time, and I've been studying it myself for a long time, but I still haven't fully figured it out......"

"It's because your generational variations—or, in the Lord's words, your functional foundations aren't solid enough," Carmel said as he manipulated the magic to get the papers back in place, "We've been using all sorts of mathematical tools to solve problems, so I'll be able to adapt to this new field a little quicker." But don't be discouraged, you're very good at math and science, and you're even better at it than most of our average researchers at the time, and you'll soon be able to fully grasp these things. ”

After speaking, the ancient magister couldn't help but sigh: "If you want to talk about being powerful, your ancestors are still powerful...... I can't imagine how he managed to acquire so much knowledge...... Not only are the legendary knights, but they also know so much about magic, runes, mathematics, and even the art of mapping......"

"I don't know why the ancestor is so powerful, but he is really powerful," Rebecca scratched her hair as if she was the one who was being complimented, "He's a legendary hero, and he's got half of the country's territory!" ”

Kamel turned around and looked at the research assistants around him who were casting curious glances, he was in a very happy mood now, and even his whole person glowed with a pale blue light when he spoke: "Each of us must master this new mathematical tool - I have already discussed with Jenny that in the future, everyone must learn calculus without affecting the research task!" ”

Jenny smiled and nodded, indicating that this matter had been approved by her, and Rebecca next to her cheered up the researchers with a happy smile: "Don't worry, everyone, this is actually not difficult!" Although I haven't fully learned it, I think this kind of thing can be almost figured out in just ten days and half a month......"

The assistant researchers at the scene began to nod their heads in confusion, and Jenny lowered her voice and muttered to Carmel next to her: "Does Rebecca know that her mathematical ability is different from that of ordinary people?" ”

"I don't know ...... look like this."

"I'm mainly worried that these assistants and apprentices who have been recruited with great difficulty will run away after seeing calculus......"

"It's okay, I've welded the door shut."

“？”

"It's a way of describing me as a lord, to show that I will never back down."

Jenny continued to look confused: "? ”

At this moment, Gawain himself, who unleashed the demon "Calculus", had no idea what was happening in the Rune Research Institute, and he was busy researching with Amber about integrating these people into Cecil's business network after the first batch of MIA operatives had completed their training.

Because as early as the beginning of the establishment of the Cecil Chamber of Commerce, Gawain reserved a lot of positions in this system where intelligence personnel could be placed, so the work itself was not difficult, he just explained his thoughts to Amber, and the next thing could be done by this half-elf himself.

"Now that our business network has begun to work, merchants from all over the world will spontaneously send some information to the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce, and when professional intelligence personnel also enter the system, Cecil's eyes and ears will be completely built," After explaining the matter clearly, Gawain leaned back and leaned back on the back of his chair, "You help me think about what else is missing." ”

"Is there anything more cunning in the world than you?" Amber couldn't help but glance at Gawain, "Sometimes I don't even know that your heroic legends from seven hundred years ago are true or false - obviously in the legend, you are a guy who solves problems by charging and slashing the whirlwind, but you are even more slippery than those conspirators when you calculate others here......"

"Legends and stories always have to be processed artistically by future generations, and in my time, I was expanding the territory, and everyone generally liked to solve problems by cutting everything down, so when describing who is very powerful, everyone will say that this person is very good at cutting - do you know that Duke Franklin, who killed the generalissimo of the orc invasion army on the battlefield with a knife, is actually better at cooking?"

"Duke of Franklin? That old ancestor of the Franklin family in the West? ”

"Yes, I jumped out of my magic with one hand, hacked two legends and at least a hundred high-level transcendents to death head-on, and what I was best at was carving flowers on turnips, and practicing with turnips when I was idle - after practicing, he beckoned us to go over and eat turnips, so we four founding dukes and King Charles himself didn't like to eat turnips after the founding of the country - this matter is never said in the history books."

Amber was stunned for a moment, but she suddenly found a blind spot: "Oh no, I saw that you were quite energetic eating radishes at dinner last night." ”

Gao Wen was stunned for a moment, realizing that his mouth was about to lose his words, but his reaction was also extremely fast: "Didn't I haven't eaten for seven hundred years, haven't I recovered?" ”

Amber touched her chin and fell into thought: "emmmm...... Can you still be relieved like this......

Gawain glanced at Amber weakly and embarrassedly, intending to say something to distract the half-elf, but just before he could speak, he suddenly felt a slight ripple in his spiritual world.

This feeling is difficult to describe in words, and ordinary people may even associate it with a brief trance and distraction, but Gawain did not let go of this sense of disobedience, and he immediately realized that it was not his spiritual world that was rippling, but his spiritual world "connected" something.

It's the mental network of the Sleepers!

Connection re-established? Those Eternal Sleepers are finally open for open beta? Is their server fixed? Is your account back?

At this moment, a lot of reliable or unreliable thoughts erupted in Gawain's mind like a blowout, but he didn't show it on his face, he just abruptly ended the current topic and looked at Amber with a serious face: "I want to ...... Sleep for a while, you're on the side. ”

"Huh?"
