"The seal of the Demon Realm is very strong, and there are people watching the Holy See headquarters every day, if there is any trouble, we can get the news as soon as possible. Trevel glanced at Athos, the sudden and huge natural disaster inevitably caused people's hearts to fluctuate, and even clergy like Athos were not exempt.

"If only we could drive these vines, then we would be much more efficient. Athos muttered quietly.

Tréville's eyes lit up when he heard this, and it was a good idea. These vines should have been driven by the mysterious man who suddenly appeared next to Swell, and perhaps he could use the Holy Light Teleportation to contact Lord Swell, and ask him to help discuss the feasibility of this plan with the mysterious man.

Thinking of this, Trevil was just about to contact Swell, when the situation in front of him changed again, and those black vines suddenly seemed to have been drained of their juice, and quickly dried up, turning into a state of dry bark.

"Why did these vines wither in the blink of an eye?" Athos crouched down to inspect them, but as soon as the dry vines touched his hand, they turned into ashes and scattered with the wind......

About half an hour later, Mr. Zero looked at Swell, who was the color of pork liver, and said, "Mr. Swell, we have arrived." ”

Swell nodded at Mr. Zero, unable to utter a word, for fear that he would be unable to resist spit it out as soon as he opened his mouth. He had to admire Mr. Zero, who did not show the slightest discomfort.

Mr. Zero clapped his hands lightly, and the leaves that wrapped around them immediately withered, also turning into a cloud of flying ash. It was only then that Swell realized that they had come to a large underground cavern.

"Here...... What is it?" asked Swell, with a hard time suppressing the tumbling vomit in his chest. He found that his senses were confined to the cavern and could not extend to the outside world.

"I'm sorry, I can't tell you just yet. Mr. Zero bluntly refused.

Swell kind of understood why Mr. Zero had "invited" him here in this way, all for the sake of secrecy. He struggled with intense dizziness all the way, and he had no time to distract himself from probing where they went.

"That's where this vine was made?" said Swell, looking around, pointing to a mechanical-style metal door not far ahead.

Mr. Zero glanced at Swell lightly and said, "You'll know when you go in." ”

"Wait a minute, can you tell me now what brought me here?" Swell's mind came up with various speculations as he looked at the gate, the biggest of which was that Mr. Zero was related to the Grand Duke Augusta of Bavaria. Both the architectural style and the way Mr. Zero is named can provide sufficient evidence.

"I think you can take a look at this. Mr. Zero pulled out a visual teleportation ball and handed it to Swell, confirming his suspicions.

"Could it be that Archduke Augusta has any orders?" said Swell, casually probing, taking the visual teleportation ball.

Mr. Zero turned a deaf ear, staring straight ahead with his eyes straight ahead, not responding at all, as if he had become a soulless puppet.

Seeing that the temptation had no effect, Swell could only shake his head helplessly and gently pressed the play button on the visual teleportation ball.

An old voice of déjà vu immediately came from the visual teleporter, almost scaring Swell's soul to the point of flight: "O successor of the Holy See, I am Pope Gyllenhaal. ”

"Khi, Gyllenhaal, what's the sound, doesn't it sound like it?" Swell's tongue was knotted in fright. As a high-ranking member of the Pontifical Branch, Swell had the privilege of meeting Pope Gyllenhaal, but the voice of the Pope was very different from the voice coming from the visual teleporter.

'Could it be that the Pope's voice is distorted because of the visual balls?' Swell muttered.

"Your suspicions are correct. To be precise, I'm not the Pope Gyllenhaal you've met, but his predecessor, the real Gyllenhaal. Now the one who calls himself Gyllenhaal should be your Pope's original name Vernon. The guy who didn't know what to call took it upon himself to use my name as an honorific title for the Pope. The voice in the visual communication ball explained.

"So you're the former Pope!" Swell said. After the current pope succeeded to the throne, for some reason, he announced that all the popes from him onwards would add the honorific title of "Gyllenhaal" to commemorate the great achievements of the previous pope, so Swell was misunderstood.

"Now that you're here, it looks like my fears have come true. The former pope sighed and said.

"Your Majesty, are you still alive?" asked Swell, cautiously. If the previous pope is still alive, how did the current pope come to power?

"Of course not, what I'm talking to you now is just a memory I left in the visual teleporter. The former Pope explained.

"But is your memory so amazing, that you can think for yourself and communicate with me?" Swell began to doubt the authenticity of the "former Pope".

"It's disappointing. Have you forgotten the oracle technique? Every word you are saying now has been foreseen by me using the oracle technique, and I can naturally prepare the corresponding answer. The former pope replied as a matter of course.

Swell was silent, since their conversation had already been foreknown to the previous Pope, it was better for him not to speak and be a listener in peace.

"Ah~I knew it was going to be like this~" Unsurprisingly, the voice of the former Pope came from the visual ball, "Swell, next you will hear an important plan of the Holy See, which you need to continue to push through. ”

"Hmm. You command. Swell replied calmly. Regardless of whether the "former Pope" is true or not, what he will hear next is definitely an important secret of great importance.

"This plan is code-named X......" began the former pope to tell patiently.

It is said that when Gyllenhaal succeeded as the Pope of the Holy See at the end of the Great War, the Holy See was in a very delicate situation. At that time, the full-fledged Otto the Great began to show his edge, and the Terran coalition under his command had reversed the decline in the Great War of All Races, and Otto himself was on the road to becoming the overlord of the continent.

At that time, Otto, who relied on the Holy See's strong popular base on the mainland, had shifted the focus of his attack on the continent from expelling foreign races to how to suppress the Holy See after establishing an empire.

In the face of Otto's aggressive offensive, the Holy See could only remain on the defensive for three reasons: first, because the war of all races had not yet completely ended, the Holy See was unwilling to fight among the races at the last critical moment and give the aliens a chance to turn the tables; second, because of the ambiguous ambiguous relationship between Otto and the Holy Woman Jessica of the Holy See; and most importantly, the seven secret treasures of the Holy See were lost a lot in the Great War of All Races, which led to the lack of confidence of the Holy See.
