Light is born of darkness

Darkness depends on light

A chaotic world......

Matching points (nevertheless)

On the Skyborne Route from the Galactic Monastery to the Earth Branch of the United Religious Church, Bishop Ito, who was in a personal ship, was on a video call with Abbot Bicester. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Unlike Abbot Bicester, who usually stayed at the monastery to manage the day-to-day affairs, Bishop Ito always had to travel to various places to attend meetings, hold discussions, and deploy troops to complete the tasks at hand.

Monasteries are not just about admitting believers, but also about politics, technology, and commerce, because a single 'industry' cannot sustain a huge organization.

It's like a smart maker will invest money in other companies' projects, and it's smarter to try to find a towering tree with solid roots in a vast forest than to hang it from a tree.

Bishop Ito is not the only one who is so busy, but also experienced bishops who are about the same as him live a life of frequent running, perhaps for the sake of status or for the ideals in their hearts.

"It's ironic that someone has said, 'Those who pray before the gods can never be honest, because they only tell the gods who can't see their sins and hide the past from others,' and I have great respect for the gods who bring miracles, but many people are blinded by it. Faith is not something that people follow blindly, it just acts as a motivation. ”

[Oh roar, it's a little surprising that Ito would say something like this, aren't you generally indifferent to this? Why did you bring it up all of a sudden? 】

"There's no particular reason for it, it's just that I just thought of it; I've been in a situation when I've participated in organizational operations before, and it's really sad that a guy who is confused by the enemy's interests when his teammates lie. ”

[If you have different positions, you will have different opinions, what is the meeting you are attending now?] Are the old diehards of the Unification Church finally trying to find a way to solve the current crisis? 】

Looking out the window, the bustling city recedes and the ship continues to move fast on its established course, with the destination being a separate facility located on the outskirts.

Bishop Ito only smiled at Dean Bister's words, but the expression on his face was a little unhappy, and it could be said that it was very troublesome.

"Not to mention whether they have any intention of resolving the crisis, it is more for their own interests. Because of the panic caused by the attacks in various places, the number of material transportation and commodity transactions has been greatly reduced, and some people are afraid that they will suddenly encounter accidents. ”

[That's the only time those guys will come out...... People who don't have money always emphasize their existence, but rich guys don't go to unnecessary things. 】

"Even so, the trouble still has to be solved, and the overly frequent and unusual attacks are not only a source of panic, but also a more dangerous possibility."

The mages affiliated with the Galactic Monastery have discovered that some of the locations attacked have some magical powers, and the situation is constantly expanding.

Unlike obvious technology, magic can always be silently formed, installed, and unleashed, and it is difficult to forewarn of it.

However, it also made everyone understand that the attacks everywhere are likely to cover up the real information, and it is not as simple as everyone seems.

Since it is intentional to use magic to achieve a certain goal, most of those magicians are also hiding somewhere on Earth, and it is difficult to find them.

So instead of dwelling on the enemy, find a way to sabotage the enemy's plans and try to destroy everything they have prepared before they can achieve their goal.

There is a saying that 'if you can run, the monk can't run the temple', the enemy can move and hide at will, but the magic elements and all kinds of information they leave behind can be wiped out.

"I'm afraid this meeting is just to talk about something related to it, to see how to interrupt the actions of the attackers; Originally, it was Dean Bicester who came here in person...... I still have some tasks. ”

[I'm sorry, Bishop Ito, my health has been getting worse and worse recently, and then those people are reluctant to hold online meetings, so they have to talk face-to-face offline, so they say that they are a group of old stubborns! 】

I am afraid that this meeting will determine the future course of action of the various religions on the earth, and it is a conference that cannot be ignored.

Originally, Bishop Ito had no intention of going to the meeting, and was going to let the other vice-presidents come over, but they turned out to be busier than himself.

It seems that the occasional leisure time is also a prelude to keep myself busy...... Bishop Ito sighed, his eyes falling on the ship's window and realizing that he was now in the suburbs.

[I have to say that the recent attack is indeed very tricky, even if the prisoner is caught, he does not get enough rest; Since it's an organization that masters magic, could it be a heretic? 】

"If it were a heretic, the Crucifixes would be very happy, and the heretical inquisitors they had set up would have a righteous and bright reason to act again; But speaking of pagans...... Some demon worshippers who wear inverted crosses have done similar things in the past, I wonder if this time is the same as before, what do you think? ”

[Want to ask me?] Those messing around must be trying to achieve a certain purpose, and that purpose is mostly for the Earth. 】

No...... Speaking of this, Dean Bicester denied the previous words.

[Maybe it's not for the earth, but for something else, but the earth is used as a medium; Although the human race is not the most populous race in the universe, at least the number is not low, and there are still many people who worship and believe in the gods, after all, everyone knows that if you become a part of the monastery, you can get many benefits and conveniences. 】

This is a fairly realistic topic and a fact.

The believers who join the various monasteries are not only for the sake of faith, but also for their own benefit, which is a win-win situation for the monastery.

However, honest and pious guys will think that this is using the name of the gods to deceive others and seek benefits, and I believe that many people cannot deny it.

The real world is the real world, and it's not as rosy as many people fantasize.

Technology is advancing, magic is spreading, but the human heart will never change in any way, and it is impossible to erase emotions such as desire.

[Speaking of which, how are the people you sent out?] That little imp ......]

"I didn't send it out, but that stinky little ghost secretly escaped by himself, even if I told him not to act rashly, it's useless."

[Oh, Ito, you can't fool me, you must know about that little ghost leaving the monastery, right? But since he wants to find a way to solve his doubts, we don't have a reason to stop him all the time. 】

"So that's where the trouble comes in."

Bishop Ito sighed again, looking a little gloomy, for his work had recently increased.

Originally, Bishop Ito was going to take a vacation for a while, but not only was there an attack on the earth and Ahui running around, but he also had to be asked by the higher-ups, 'Why did the queen of a country really come?! ’。

This is Maurice's queen - Jasmine F (Francis) Mefulin, she is likely to arrive on Earth in half a month, in order to marry Yahui.

"Anyway, I'm very busy right now, Abbot Bicester, please take care of all the affairs of the monastery."

[Of course, no problem, the three vice presidents also helped, and the other bishops will also take the time to solve some troubles for me, thanks to everyone.] 】

"That's good, I'll record the details in the terminal after the meeting here, and I'll give it to you later."

[I've been bothering you lately, so Vice Dean Omo has been busier than you these days. 】

"Vice President Omo? What is he doing now? ”

[Go out to take care of business, in this unpeaceful situation there are some people who want to temporarily suspend the transaction with the monastery, he is in charge of this aspect, so he must extend the trading time; Of course, he never seems to lag behind in research, and he is a very hardworking person. 】

"It's really hard, but all in all, let's do what needs to be done right now."

Bishop Ito thinks that the queen from Mars has to be dealt with by Ahui herself, and he doesn't want to wade into troubled waters.

[That's it, it's not too late to talk about the details later.] 】

As soon as Dean Bicester tried to close the call, the signal was inexplicably interfered with.

[How...... You...... Wrong...... Can't see ......]

Listening to Abbot Bicester's staccato speech, Bishop Ito saw a priest in the wheelhouse run into the cabin where he was.

"Bishop Ito, please wear all your safety equipment!"

"If there is a problem with the ship, you also give priority to ensuring your own safety."

"Yes! The ship's systems are currently all out of order, and the autopilot lasts only 10 seconds! ”

Was it an attack? Bishop Ito put on the safety equipment as fast as he could, and asked the ship to open the ship's door, and now abandoning the ship is the right thing to do.

[Happened...... Crisis...... I immediately ......]

The next moment the signal was completely blocked, and Bishop Ito began to direct the others to retreat, and it was ten seconds with five seconds left.

If the ship fails completely, it will not fall immediately, and there is enough time.

"Bishop Ito!! It's an attack!! ”

"Is it really the attacker?! In this kind of place?! ”

Bishop Ito was the first to jump out of the ship, and so did the others...... It's just that the speed is a beat slower after all.

One missile hits a ship in the air! The blast engulfed the crowd, scorching everything in its vicinity with the light of fire and heat.

"Use the terminal's defenses! Damn ......"

The enemy completely ran out, a group of guys dressed in black and wearing masks.

They raised their guns and did not hesitate to start shooting, and those who could not borrow their strength in the air could not dodge these attacks, and even if they controlled the direction of the parachute, they were hit because of their slow speed.

The barrage streaked across the sky, and Bishop Ito's left arm, abdomen, and right leg were pierced by bullets, and blood flowed freely.

Shout!! The defensive wall built by the terminal was completely broken, and the impact made Bishop Ito fall to the ground in an instant!

Below were trees, his skin was torn, his clothes were torn, and Bishop Ito clinged to them and took out all the hemostatic drugs and daggers he had with him.

"Number of people ......"

Thirteen people.

"Formation ......"

Scalloped encirclement.

Retreat is impossible, only direct hard work.

It hurt all over the body, but at least the bleeding had stopped, and anesthetics were used.

So—

"!! here"

The attacker with military goggles spotted Ito's figure!

But......

Instead of attacking, they retreated.

Wrong, not to retreat, but not to intend to melee with themselves, these people know what they are best at.

"Very cautious fellow...... Do you want to capture me alive? ”

Bishop Ito jumped lightly from the trunk of the tree, not knowing if any of his companions were alive, and he planned to flee first.

However, he noticed a new change, a ship flew in the air, and a large amount of light red gas was sprinkled from the bottom.

"Poison gas?!"

Ito, covering his mouth, stared ahead, these people were more cautious than expected.

At this time, he shook his body and leaned against the trunk of the tree to gasp.

Most of the bullets just now also had toxins.

"I'm in trouble."

It's troublesome.

Ito's consciousness gradually became blurred, his hands and feet began to weaken, and even his thinking became dull.

Being put on the table, this is his current situation.

————

At the same time—

"Hey! What the hell is going on!! ”

An abyssal alien with three horns roared in bewilderment, and the other people gathered below the [Tower of the Gods] also began to heckle.

At the top of the Abyssal Sacred [Tower of the Gods], on the left side stood the current lord Naya, the administrator Mom, and the minister Ruth; On the right are Ulysses, who was told to be killed, as well as four people, including Ahui, Ariel, and Saviara.

"The people of Yu !!!"

Ulysses shouted to the bewildered, bewildered people below

"Yu was forced out of the SAR by a group of coups who tried to seize power! Now come back and tell you the truth! Don't believe Yu's sister Naya's words, she was deceived by the minister and the administrator! ”

Asserting one's own correctness was the first means by which Yahui told Yuri.

The people looked at everything that was happening in front of them, and some asked suspiciously

"Are you...... Master Ulysses! Why is it only now! ”

"It seems to me that the minister and the magistrate will betray, and you must be doing something wrong! Always tell us that we should pursue peace and see how it goes?! Everyone's life has become very difficult! ”

They want war more than peace, so that they can get enough resources.

Of course, there were also civilians who belonged to the minister's side.

"Brother..."

Naya, who was on the left, said with a determined expression

"I won't let you ruin the future of the Abyss Seed."

"Naya ......"

"And brother, don't worry, we won't take it personally, because the evil gods and demons will help."

Naya's words made Yahui very confused, and it seems that troublesome things will continue to increase.
