Although it was a sneak attack, the other party was able to injure St. Angel and severely damage the Pope, while the Vampire Prince, Sophia, and Owen were unaware, which shows that this person's strength is unfathomable.

This eerie sneer may have been unfamiliar to the others present, but at this time, the Pope, who was seriously wounded, was extremely familiar, he fell to the ground, coughed up blood, but still questioned the other in a confused and angry tone: "Why you?

"Hehe......" The sneak attacker, who had been hiding for a long time, seemed to feel the need to hide anymore and emerged from a dark corner. This man was wearing a paladin armor, but the cloak behind it was black......

"Is that him?" Sophia was stunned when she saw the comer. She had seen this man before during the Tower of Seven Sins incident on the outskirts of Hansar City, when he appeared as a paladin and led a group of black-clad killers to fight against the knights of the Pole Kingdom led by Duris, and it was heard that he was also the murderer of William, Dany's teacher. Sophia couldn't figure out why the Paladins under the Pope's seat would hurt the Pope?

"You're the shadow paladin of the rumors?" Saint-Angel failed to find any of the still living paladins from her memories that coincided with the man, and her last thoughts were fixed on the rumor that had not been confirmed to exist.

"It seems that the so-called Radiant Saintess is nothing more than that. Meritgar tilted her eyes at St. Angel, her eyes full of disdain.

"Are you really Meritgar? How could you ......" The Pope, who was sitting on the ground, couldn't believe that his subordinates, who were usually humble and loyal to him, could be the same person as the arrogant guy in front of him. Before he could continue, he was interrupted by a mouthful of bloody phlegm.

"Are you asking how I ended up here?" "Meritgar looked down at the Pope with a look that the Pope had never seen before, "Yes, at this time I did follow your orders and stir up a rebellion in the camp of the Avengers in exile in the Elven Territory......"

"What?" Hearing this, Sophia couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

Melitgar ignored Sophia and continued, "Maybe it would be better to keep this scene going, but now I've changed my mind. I can't let things go unpunished. Frio, I don't want you to make you pope so lightly. ”

"What stupid are you talking about?" the Pope could not understand what Meritgar meant. When he became Pope himself, this Meritgar should have been a little kid.

"Do you really think that it is your own effort to become pope? I am just picking the most suitable person among a group of chosen pigs. Speaking of which, you should thank me, I let you get a son. ”

"What?"

"Do you think that the woman who looked very similar to your little lover appeared in front of you back then, it was really just a coincidence? You think you are in control, but in fact, everything you have done so far has been arranged by me. Not only you, but all the pigs lying in the crystal coffin, they are all the same. What pope, what 'God's only spokesman on earth'? It's all my marionette. ”

"You...... Wow!" The Pope was so angry that his wounds worsened, and his blood was furious.

"Go and save the Pope. Saint-Angel commanded Sophia.

Since it was the teacher who spoke, Sophia didn't even think about it, she immediately ran to the Pope's side, took out the silver cross and cast a spell to heal this former enemy, however, although her magic power successfully formed all the holy light into the Pope's body, it did not make the Pope's wounds heal. Not only Sophia, but also St. Angel was in the same predicament, and the healing magic she cast on her arm did not work at all.

"Give it up, the wounds I made with my own hands are incurable by light magic. Meritgar satirized the futility of the two masters and apprentices.

"Listening to your tone, it seems that you have lived in this world for a long time, and you are also an undead?" the Prince of Vampire asked Melitgar. Despite the fact that this paladin did not appear to have any undead characteristics, the prince still thought from habitual thinking.

"Vampire Prince Dekra?" Meritgar looked the prince up and down, "Don't confuse me with you dead, the so-called 'Undead Triumvirate' is no different from worms in my eyes. Don't be nosy, if I'm in a good mood, maybe you'll live a few more minutes. ”

"How can that be!" said the Prince, frowning, for no one had dared to speak such arrogant words to him since he had become King of the Bloods, not even the Pope, who he regarded as an enemy.

"Beware of deceit, Your Highness. Owen next to him reminded, "I feel a messy aura from his mental power, this guy is not human at all, it should be said that he is not a creature of any race we know." His existence is beyond our comprehension. ”

"He's certainly not human. This guy is an ancient artificial lifeform and a member of the secret organization 'Eternal Truth Society'. Saint-Angel calmly told what she knew, and by this time she had already bandaged the wound on her hand with a handkerchief.

"Eternal Truth Society! This organization has already ......" Hearing the name, the Pope showed a shock that he had never felt before.

"Obviously wiped out? It's just an illusion. St. Angel said in a deep voice, "The Eternal Truth Society has infiltrated the interior of the Central Church, and the 114 popes sleeping here are nothing more than puppets manipulated by the Eternal Truth Society. Sadly, even they don't know it. ”

"Teacher, what kind of organization is the Eternal Truth Society? Why have I never heard of it? Sophia bandaged the Pope's wounds and asked her questions.

Not only Sophia, but also Owen and the Prince of Vampire were curious, an organization they had only heard about for the first time today, and had secretly manipulated the Central Church for more than a thousand years.

"Eternal truth will be the greatest darkness of our Holy Illuminati. When the weak Pope said this, his tone was filled with shame and remorse. If it is really as St. Angel said, then everything he has done in his life is only in the service of the Eternal Truth Society, how can this kind of thing calm his mind?

St. Angel took over the Pope's words: "At the beginning of the creation of the Holy Light Cult, there was a part of the faithful who believed in the evil fallen angel Lucifer, even though Lucifer's Seven Sins Demon King brought a devastating disaster to the human world. The current Pope and the Holy Maiden of Radiance are doing their best to save the Luciferians and hope to convert these Luciferians, but there are still a few diehards who refuse to turn back, and they have left the Holy See and founded the 'Eternal Truth Society', in a vain attempt to fight against the Central Church. Knowing that negotiations were no longer possible, the Central Curia decided to wage a war of annihilation against the Society of Eternal Truth, and after paying great sacrifices, it finally annihilated the Society of Eternal Truth. In order to make the world forever forget this organization and completely eliminate its influence, the Holy See decided to completely erase the existence of this organization from history. Apart from the oral teachings of successive popes and saints, no one else knows the fact that this organization ever existed. ”

"Lucifer, Satan the Demon. The name unnerved Owen.

Lucifer, the rebellious leader of the angels, is kept secret in the Cult of Light scriptures. Lucifer betrayed Heaven and defected to the Demon Realm to become the fourth demon, Satan, an allusion that is also sorted out from fragmentary ancient poetic records.

"However, the hundred-legged worm will not die, and the eternal truth will not be destroyed, but will only become an underground activity. "They knew they couldn't fight the Central Church head-on, so they infiltrated the interior of the Church and waited for the right moment. The Demon War, 2,000 years ago, can be said to have been indirectly caused by the Eternal Truth Society. The Society of Eternal Truth tricked Howard, the heir of the Pope, now the Lich King Callowing, into giving the Key to the Stars to the Poseidon in exchange for the resurrection of his best friend. Then they used the Poseidon Clan to open the door to the Demon Realm with the Star Key, in an attempt to welcome the god they believed in, Lucifer, to come to the world. However, although the door of the demon realm was opened, it did not summon Lucifer, but accidentally brought another demon, Satan Abaddon, into the world. ”

"Where did you hear this, and why didn't the former pope sue me?" said Freo I, who was increasingly incredulous, and what he had heard from the previous pope about the Eternal Truth Society was until it was annihilated.

"For the saturated Holy See, the fewer people who know, the better. St. Angel replied, "More than a thousand years ago, the civil war between the Holy Maiden and the Pope, do you think it was just a struggle for power? No, the civil war was just a cover-up, but in fact, after the end of the Demon War, the Pope and the Holy Maiden had already faintly realized that the power of the Eternal Truth Society was hidden within the Central Church. In order to uproot this organization, Pope San Fario V and the Holy Maiden of Radiance Purity-Teresa reached an agreement to make a civil war that would make it easier for the Holy Maiden to leave the Central Church for a reasonable reason, so as to more easily investigate the affairs of the Eternal Truth Society. And in order to protect the pure-Teresa, St. Fario V did not inform his successor about this. ”

"Teacher, was the civil war in the Holy See a double drama between the Pope and the Holy Maiden?" Sophia's mind was a little confused, and what she said from her mentor subverted all her previous perceptions.

"This is the most important secret of our saintly family. For more than a thousand years, he traveled around secretly investigating all the information about the Eternal Truth Society. It is the task of our successive Radiant Maidens. Speaking of this, St. Angel raised his hand and pointed at Meritgar, "After a thousand years of investigation, we have not only discovered that the Eternal Truth Society has manipulated many important departments of the Central Church, but they have also combined alchemy and light magic to create an artificial life form, which is this guy. For more than a thousand years, he has changed his name, physiognomy, and identity, hiding from the popes after San Fario V, influencing papal decision-making. ”

"Are you saying that all the decrees of the Holy Light Cult have so far been induced by the Eternal Truth Society?" said the Pope.

St. Angel said, "That's right. This is the deeper darkness behind the dark side of the Holy See of Light. Extreme religious cleansing is carried out in order to eradicate dissidents and consolidate power, the Tower of Seven Sins is rebuilt in order to refine the 'gift of the Holy Spirit' and accumulate energy, the resurrection of werewolves is to recruit troops for future wars, the killing of stigmata is due to the threat of the Messianic power of the Messiah, the search for the secret keys of the stars scattered all over the place, not to open the gates of the heavenly kingdom, but to open the gates of the demonic realm, as for the so-called ' The Angelization Project is a big scam in itself, because even artificial life forms have a limit to their lifespan, and he deceived the 114 popes who were sleeping here, making them believe that as long as their bodies were placed in crystal coffins, they could become angels in the future, in fact, in order to draw energy from their mythical contracts and extend their lifespan. ”

"Papapa......

"Wonderful. I thought it would take you glowing saintesses another three or four hundred years to find out such detailed information. Merit Gaal clapped her hands and sneered, "I underestimated you guys a little. But do you really think that for more than a thousand years I have been ignorant of what your saints have done? I'm just curious what you can do. ”

"You asked me to tell all my secrets, but I didn't take action. Don't you think no one can stop you?" St. Angel vaguely felt a surging murderous aura from the calmness and laughter of Meritgar.

"Stop me?" "Stop me," Meritgar's face changed, and her eyes showed a fierce light, "From the moment I appeared, you were already dead. Let you know more, the secret will be buried forever. ”

"He wants to kill people?" is so fierce and murderous, even if she doesn't pick out the words, Sophia knows what he wants to do.

"He can't do it. Owen stood beside Sophia.

"If this person is the manipulator behind the scenes of the Central Church, part of my debt will be counted on his head. The Vampire Prince raised his heavy two-handed greatsword.

"Hahahaha......" Meritgar laughed wildly, "the self-righteous vampire king, the ignorant messianic 'stigmata', the stupid pope, the weak saint, and the humble telekinesis, all five of you will go together, and this will save me a lot of time." ”
