Chapter 396: Bad News

The waiting time was much longer than Yu Qian imagined. Originally, he thought that it was just a chase for a strange bird that looked relatively large. When the Coyote Brigade cleaned up the battlefield, he was also able to observe the beheaded giant beast by Ren Yuan up close and in detail. At the same time, he also thoroughly understands why the former said to him, and when you see it, you will understand what the crow looks like.

Although this indescribable strange beast may seem difficult to deal with, in fact, it will end up being beheaded by a sword. Yu Qian knew very well that in comparison, his own partner was a more terrifying monster, far more unreasonable and more terrifying and dangerous than this disgusting-looking giant beast.

But until the crowd dispersed and the entire beach was restored by the coyote brigade, as if nothing had happened, he still didn't wait for Ren Yuan's return. The communication signals sent out are also like a stone in the sea without any response, which is obviously not a good sign. As the waiting time lengthened, the morning star had slowly risen in the distant sky, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious in his heart. Could it be that there was really an accident that even Ren Yuan could not cope with?

Just as he was about to get impatient of waiting, he finally saw a blurry figure expand from the distant sky. Yu Qian, who had been staring at the sky, cheered up, and hurriedly got up and waved to the former. Ren Yuan also saw his partner waiting on the beach, adjusted the angle, and elegantly folded his wings and landed.

"It's been almost three hours, why have you been there for so long?" Yu Qian looked at his naked partner, handed over the spare clothes, frowned, and asked, "Got in trouble?" ”

"Ah, I chased to the Zoroastrian ocean-going tanker. Sure enough, as I expected, the other party used the routine of a freighter with a crow. Ren Yuan squeezed his eyes and said proudly, "Tonight is really a good harvest, I caught three prisoners, and destroyed an ocean-going oil tanker on the other side." I guess the Zoroas' sect is going to blow up. ”

"Uh... Maybe the harvest is not so much..."Yu Qian looked at his partner who was dancing with flying eyebrows, and became a little embarrassed for a while. Before Ren Yuan set off to chase the Advent Sect, the results were indeed rich. But what happened after that made him a little difficult to speak.

"What's wrong? Did something happen? Ren Yuan sensed his partner's hesitation and quipped, "Is it possible to let the captives run away?" ”

"Ahh Belch... Well, I ran a..."Yu Qian replied embarrassedly avoiding the former's eyes

"Oh? It's that Ximen Chu who ran in, right? Looks like I'm still underestimating him. Ren Yuan restrained his smile, pondered for a moment and said to himself, "His independent reality is really not that simple." ”

"But it doesn't matter, it's just one run, aren't there two left?" Ren Yuan quickly cheered up again, patted the former on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Being able to capture two middle-level Inhumans has greatly exceeded expectations." ”

"The remaining two... One died, and the Inhuman, who was called Yin, was also seriously injured..."

"Ahh It doesn't matter. Ren Yuan forcibly comforted, "Our goal tonight was originally to prevent the transportation of materials from the Advent Faction, and intercepting the two coffins of top-level embryos is already considered a successful completion of the goal." ”

"The crystal coffin... was also snatched away by the other party, we... Only one was saved. Yu Qian replied hesitantly

"This..."Ren Yuan said with a smile, "Why did I go out and come back, you guys are full of bad news?" You're not going to tell me that the mercenary guy died in battle, are you? ”

"Ah, no, Xiaoxin was just poisoned. However, it was dealt with in a timely manner, it should not be serious, and it has been sent to the research institute for inspection. Yu Qian hurriedly said

"What the hell is going on?" Ren Yuan asked curiously, "I've only been away for a few hours, how do I feel like I've crossed over." ”

"Anyway, why can't I contact you?" Thinking of this, Yu Qian couldn't help but be a little annoyed, "If you were here, I'm afraid there would be no such problems." ”

"Hey, hey, you can't blame me for this, where did I think that the other party still has a backhand that can handle Xiaoxin." Ren Yuan said with an innocent face, "As for why the communicator is broken, it's not easy for me to do it over there." Chased over and met a god alien, and the independent reality actually embodied King Arthur's holy sword. I also went through a lot of hard work to get it, where can I keep the communication equipment? ”

"By the way, can you tell me what happened? Reinforcements from the Zoroastrian sect arrived ahead of the coyote brigade? How dare they fight head-on? Ren Yuan smashed his mouth and said, "Tut, it's not easy to be a good guy." ”

"It's quite complicated, and it's not the place to talk." Yu Qian sighed and said, "Shangguan Zhenshou said that when you come back, let us go to the underground command post for an emergency meeting, after so long, it is estimated that everyone is impatient to wait, let's leave quickly." As for what exactly happened, I can't say a word or two, but when the time comes, you will know. ”

"Hey, it's been a day of continuous rotation, and I don't let people rest..."Ren Yuan shook his head and complained, turned around and got into the car with Yu Qian, and the two went straight to the command post on the ground floor of the museum...

Tonight is definitely the heaviest loss the Zoroastrian sect in S City has suffered in ten years. So much so that the news of nearly half of the casualties of the Seven Sins Force began to spread within the sect, and the vast majority of believers couldn't believe that this was true.

The atmosphere of panic spread within the sect, and the leaders at the top were still able to deal calmly, although emotionally speaking, High Priest Black was out of control. For these cultists at the bottom, those priests who are usually high in the sky are simply like the incarnation of gods. Not only does he have all kinds of incredible supernatural powers, but they are all children of destiny who are favored by the god of light. It is unacceptable that they should die at the hands of the enemy.

Hearing such bad news at this moment, the psychological impact is undoubtedly very huge, and for some weak-willed believers, their faith has fundamentally shaken a little. If these priests and lords who are favored by the gods are still blessed with such a fate. So compared to those Chosen One, who is far inferior to himself, can he really enjoy the protection of the God of Light?

Rumors spread rapidly in the mouths of the low-level cultists, and the impetuous mood quietly rose like wildfire. But at this critical moment, Prometheus, as a bishop, did not use his strong wrists to block the news of the defeat of the Seven Sins forces. Still sitting in the seat between the void and pondering, let these wildfires grow stronger.

"Your Excellency. The Wraiths have returned to the sect and are awaiting your summons. Ye Ling silently pushed open the door and walked in, standing beside him and respectfully asking for instructions. Because of the previous shock injury by Blake, although he had tried hard to control his breath, his voice was still a little unsteady and trembling.

"Hmm." Prometheus opened his eyes and said slowly, "Tell them to wait for me among the ethereals, and after informing the spirits of the spirits, you can go and rest first." ”

"Okay lord, how dare you worry about this little injury. Master Black didn't take a heavy hand, and I'm almost recovered. Ye Ling hesitated for a moment and said, "It's just another matter, my subordinates are a little worried, I don't know if I should or not..."

"What are you worried about?" Prometheus asked gently

"The news of the defeat of the Seven Sins forces has spread, and many believers cannot help but panic when they experience defeat for the first time. Do you want me to inform High Priest Lifa and ask him to come to the sect tonight and gather the believers to calm down the public opinion. Some bad rumors have already spread. Ye Ling said cautiously, "And High Priest Blake is busy preparing for the Light Conference, so he doesn't seem to have time to estimate this matter." ”

"Isn't Xiao Hei going to have a meeting of light?" Prometheus smiled lightly and said, "Then he will naturally go and inform Li Fa to come back, why do you bother." ”

"But those cultists who spread rumors..."Ye Ling asked uneasily

"Well, they didn't mean to spread it. Never before has the denomination suffered such a defeat since I took the episcopal office. With the sudden loss of three priests, it is understandable that everyone would be terrified. Prometheus said in a gentle voice, "Fear, cowardice, suspicion." This is the nature of human beings that is difficult to overcome. It is precisely because we want to break free from the shackles of this mundane world that we follow the gods and listen to the teachings of the Lord. Expecting ultimate salvation, aren't they? ”

"But my lord, I am afraid that these rumors will have a bad effect on those weak-willed believers."

"It's just a small setback, and the suffering we will endure is all a test that the gods have brought down on us." Prometheus said indifferently, "It will be shaken or even retreated because of this, which is a sign of lack of devotion to the gods." Even if we stop the spread of rumors, these believers who are not strong enough will later retreat because of other setbacks. ”

"Moreover, it is far from the time for the gods to give their final test, and those who are shaken by the slightest setback. How can we expect them to follow the glory of the Lord steadfastly at the final day? ”

"What do you mean, my lord?" Ye Ling asked tentatively

"Ignore the cowardly weakling, as the spokesman of the gods, we must pay attention to those who are indomitable and faithful who still hold on to their faith in the midst of the storm." Prometheus said in a slightly serious tone

"Spirit, remember. Those who flinch in the face of trials are not those who have abandoned their faith and betrayed the gods. On the contrary, it was the gods who canceled their chances of being saved. Although God loves every living being created by Him, only the heart of faith is like a child of real gold that can attain ultimate glory. Those who do not believe in God are not worthy of salvation. ”

Hearing these words, Ye Ling palmed his palms in front of him, touched his forehead to the ground, and said respectfully, "Obey the holy precepts of the Bishop. ”

Prometheus doesn't go to silence speech, certainly not for that reason. Ye Ling had been following Lao Pu for a long time, so he naturally listened to the sound of the strings and knew the meaning of elegance, and understood the hidden meaning of the bishop's words. The plan is about to reach a critical moment, and for the denomination, those believers who are not strong-willed are of little value to the denomination. Now, it's time to start sifting through valuable targets.

"I'm going to inform the spirits of the spirits and see you among the spirits."

"Oh yes." Prometheus stopped his subordinates, "Have you seen the mortal stars today?" ”

"My subordinates haven't seen the Mortal Star Priest today." Ye Ling knew what the Bishop wanted to ask, and hurriedly replied, "I'll go to him to find out about Lord Medusa's situation today." ”

"Don't reveal your intentions." Prometheus whispered, "It's good to knock on the side, it's not for you to find out if she has succeeded." It's about understanding what means she used to cover up the past. He's not one of ours after all, don't be alarmed over there. ”

"My subordinates understand." Ye Ling replied in a deep voice, bowed and retreated.
