Hurried footsteps raced through the street outside the door, and it was impossible to see who they were, but the sound of steel boots and the pounding of the stone brick floor silently told Robert, the blind priest of Hammer Island, that it was a group of armed knights.

And when there was a commotion and angry shouting soon after, Robert understood what the group of knights who had just passed by had done.

"Pyne was taken away too."

A low voice came from beside him, and Robert pursed his lips when he heard this.

"How many of our men are left?"

More than a dozen of them were arrested along with their targets on the same day, and Carlyle and Marianne's men were also found in the past two days. At the moment, apart from us, only Robinson and his three brothers have not been noticed......"

The voice said in a gloomy tone, "It may not be long before we will be confessed by the traitors." ”

"Don't be discouraged, Bud."

Hearing this, Robert said comfortingly, "Only some backbones know about our existence, and they will not betray the blind god." ”

"If that's the case, why are we exposed?"

"It can be seen that the main target of those people's search at the beginning was not actually us, but we were unfortunately affected."

This is a plausible explanation, because that was exactly what happened that day.

It's just that after hearing this, the one next to Robert was confused.

"But how long are we going to hide? Wait until the reinforcements mentioned above arrive? Now that Hull Town is so tightly blocked, and the docks have been closed, how can reinforcements come? ”

"Hull isn't going to be locked down like this forever."

Robert replied, "We just have to be patient." ”

"And then, when the reinforcements can come, let's go to the prison and rescue that target?" The voice was implicitly dissatisfied.

"Of course." Robert responded in the affirmative.

"Why did we save him? We've lost a lot to save him, but I still don't even know why I saved him! ”

"This is the task given to us by the Patriarch, and we must complete it." Robert replied calmly.

The other party fell silent when he heard this, and then said nothing more.

Robert frowned at this.

Silence is far more terrible than protest, which means that the dissatisfaction in the hearts of the other party has accumulated to a certain extent.

However, this is an understandable thing, in fact, even he is extremely depressed at this time.

They had been developing fairly smoothly on Hammer Island, and through some bribery, many missionary acts did not even have to be concealed too much, and they did not usually worry about being suddenly hostile or even expelled.

It was only when the above asked them to go all out to rescue a round-faced young man that this situation was suddenly broken.

Everyone was mobilized, and then a very risky operation was launched, after which they went into hiding again.

After the unfortunate discovery, their hiding hands were arrested one after another, and even a large number of peripheral members and even simple believers who were not involved in the operation were implicated......

After this incident, the development they had worked Hammer Island for many years had been completely destroyed, and their own family and connections here were basically shattered.

As a heretic hidden in the continent of Lea, Robert was actually aware of this.

But this situation of inexplicable failure made him very unwilling.

Why is this happening?

He never understood the question.

No one could have betrayed them, for the principle of the Covenant Church toward pagans was to burn them.

Who would risk being burned to death and throw themselves into the arms of the Covenant Church?

But if no one betrayed, what caused this failure?

Is it really just bad luck?

Now is not the time to think about it, but Robert can't help but think about it in his head.

However, this does not have any beneficial effect on the situation at hand.

So he sighed, thought for a moment, got up and walked to the empty attic upstairs of the house, and finally stood in front of a black iron sculpture of eyes in the corner.

Robert then knelt under this eye and whispered a prayer before saying, "We're almost out of it." ”

"We urgently need support."

"If possible, I hope that the parishioners above can be rescued."

"We ......"

He explained all the current predicament, and after the words were over, a layer of floating light flashed on the surface of the black iron eye sculpture, and then returned to its normal appearance.

This means that the news has gotten out.

Robert had little hope for it.

In fact, he had already contacted them more than once.

However, the main church of the Blind God Church is too far away from Hammer Island, and some of the surrounding parishioners who rushed to support cannot enter it due to the tight lockdown of Hammer Island.

If you want to break this dilemma, you can't do it unless you go on a strong attack.

But what it means is completely different from what it means now.

……

At the same time, in a city far away from the continent of Laia, a divination has reached a critical moment.

Crystal balls, ritual tables, silver coins, and flowers and plants stained with black liquid......

The room where the divination was held was lit by a row of black candles, giving off plenty of light, but the environment was still dim.

It's just that this place is filled with a gray mist, and when it slowly ripples, it envelops the surrounding area in a haze.

At first glance, the fog appears to be scattered and disorganized, but on closer inspection, it can be seen that they are neither spreading outward, nor converging inward, nor gradually dissipating like normal fog.

Instead, they resemble a large fine gray net, or like a deep nebula, fluffy around the delicate crystal ball in the center of the room.

As a result, a series of cluttered images appeared in the crystal ball.

Sometimes it's a flock of birds, sometimes it's a flower, sometimes it's the back of a child running, sometimes it's a boiling ocean.

These phenomena were inexplicable to a chubby old man in a rich robe standing in the corner of the room, but Longman Mormon, who was in front of the crystal ball first, gradually realized this.

As the patriarch of the Church of the Blind God, Longman Mormon wore a gray band around his head to cover his eyes, but as a transcendent being of high stature, his eyes were no longer the only way he could see the world.

As a result, he was able to see clearly, or more clearly, everything in the crystal ball than with his eyes.

Eventually, when the images dissipated, and when the gray mist in the room was suddenly sucked into the crystal ball, he turned his head to look at the chubby old man not far away.

"Next, the Sea Clan side should propose to negotiate a peaceful passage through the Gladstone Road with the Pharos Kingdom and the Covenant Church."

"Negotiations?"

The chubby old man was a little surprised when he heard this, "It's understandable that there is a negotiation between the Pharos Kingdom and the Sea Clan, how can the belligerent Covenant Church agree to negotiate?" ”

"When the Blood Moon fell some time ago, something happened somewhere in the territory of the Pharos Kingdom."

Longman Mormon replied, "This may be a cause for a change in attitude in the Covenant Church." ”

"Any idea what's going on?"

"There must have been a powerful devil who had descended on Pharos. But what level of devil it is, we don't know, the news and the scene are very tightly blocked. ”

This answer made the chubby old man squint, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly said, "I hope to be sure that this negotiation will be successful, Patriarch Mormon, it is very important to us. ”

"I can't do continuous divination." Longman Mormon shook his head.

In fact, it's not that it's impossible, but it's a lot of mental loss to him, especially in the face of this kind of decision-making involving top forces.

In fact, if it weren't for the other party's repeated pleas, he wouldn't even agree to the first divination.

So it was impossible for him to agree to a second divination.

So no matter what the other party said, Longman Mormon said no.

However, when he walked out of the house and heard the deputy report something, he suddenly changed his mind.

Turning back to the room where the divination had been used, Longman Mormon said to the fat old man, whose face had become a little gloomy, "If His Royal Highness can agree to one condition for me, I can do a second divination for you." ”

"On what terms?" When the other party heard this, he immediately asked.

The success of the negotiation predicted by the divination was related to whether the peace between the Sea Clan and the Kingdom of Pharos would continue.

This may be a fateful event for many people, but for him, it can be said to be an opportunity, a big opportunity!

Therefore, if you can know the outcome of the negotiation in advance, then it is equivalent to taking the lead and being able to expand your interests!

"Our people are in trouble on Hammer Island in the Pharos Kingdom, and I hope that Your Excellency the Prince will contact the Black Blood Sect, the Spirit Sect, and the Blood Thorn Order, so that their people on Hammer Island can help our people get out of trouble and escape from that island."

Longman Mormon said, adding some details that could be revealed.

It didn't seem to be a big deal, and the man nodded cheerfully.

So Longman Mormon stepped over to the crystal ball in the center of the room, ready to foresee the three-way negotiations involving the Sea Clan, the Church, and the Kingdom of Pharos.

Then he was in a daze.
