Chapter 1003: The Murderer

"You really know!" Bishop Barron's face was extremely gloomy, and he said, "Before you came here, we had guessed that the secret of the lighthouse would not be kept, but we didn't expect you to find out so quickly, it seems that it is not a rumor that Lord Leo is the last wizard of the tower." ”

Although Sylvia didn't understand the meaning of Leo's words just now, from Bishop Barron's words, she was very keenly aware of the key to the matter, and quickly sorted out the details in her mind.

She was also very surprised when she realized that her lighthouse was actually the product of the wizard of the Tower, but instead of revealing her surprise, she seemed very calm, pretending that I already knew about it, and said, "Bishop Barron, I think the conditions we proposed earlier ......"

Bishop Barron gritted his teeth and said, "I can make the decision to agree to your terms, but I also have a request that I hope you two will agree to. ”

"What request?" asked Leo.

"We hope that whatever the two of you find will not spread the word, and no remnants will come in, this is an internal matter of our Poseidon Church. As he spoke, Bishop Barron looked at Leo again and said, "I remember that His Excellency Leo does not seem to be an English hypocrite...... Catholics, so you shouldn't have any reason to meddle in this matter, right?"

Leo and Sylvia looked at each other, although Bishop Barron's words did not reveal a lot of meaning, but they could hear that the matter of the Castle Black Lighthouse was related to the power within the Poseidon Church, and both of them were also very sensitive to intelligence information, and this information alone could already make them deduce a lot of things.

For example, there are not many things that can cause the British Poseidon Church and the Landalle Poseidon Church to have a power tilt, and the most critical thing is only the sea power, especially in this gray fog when the sea is closed, whoever can master the way to navigate safely in the gray fog will be able to control the sea power and become the overlord of the world.

From this, it is not difficult to conclude that what the Poseidon Church does every year at the Castle Black Lighthouse is to obtain the power to control the sea from Poseidon.

Therefore, Leo is almost certain that the Turing root on the lighthouse is definitely related to the legendary palace of the sea god that sank to the deepest part of the seabed, and also related to the more than 300 people who have no record of death every year.

There was a brief silence in the room, and Bishop Barron's face became more and more ugly as the silence lengthened, and drops of sweat permeated from his forehead, and those sweats slowly flowed down under the weight of the weight, but she had no intention of wiping them, and always looked at Leo and Sylvia with a blank face.

"Yes. Through the hint of almost heart-to-heart eye contact, Sylvia quickly understood what Leo meant, and spoke: "No matter what we find out, we can not interfere in the internal disputes of the Poseidon Church, nor do we interfere in the affairs of the lighthouse, what should we do before, and what we still do." ”

Hearing Sylvia's words, Bishop Barron breathed a sigh of relief, and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve without a trace, but he seemed to think that Sylvia's promise was not very secure, so he turned to Leo and asked, "What about Mr. Leo Dodd?

Leo nodded and said, "Yes, Xini's words represent mine." ”

"We can accede to your request, but as long as it involves the use of the lighthouse, we all have to participate in the qualification. Sylvia added, and when Bishop Barron was about to say something, he added: "Don't worry, we're just a bystander and won't get involved." ”

Bishop Barron was silent for a moment, nodded, and said, "I hope you can do what you say, otherwise...... We in the Poseidon Church do not want to be enemies of the two, but for the sake of our lord, we are not afraid to be enemies of the two. ”

After saying a harsh remark, Bishop Barron felt the need to stay any longer, and after telling Leo that he could always go to the church to consult the books and materials, he got up and walked out.

As Bishop Barron reached the door, Leo suddenly asked, "Were you responsible for the assassination of my son?"

Bishop Barron was stunned, then turned his head to look at Leo and Sylvia, and said, "It has nothing to do with us," and then said meaningfully to Sylvia: "Sometimes things don't need to be too complicated. ”

With that, he opened the door and walked out.

After Bishop Barron left, neither Leo nor Sylvia spoke, but savored his last words.

After a while, Sylvia picked up the pen and paper on the table and wrote something quickly, then folded the paper and stuffed it into a small seal, then she walked to the window, opened it, and made a gesture outside, and soon saw a harrier eagle fly to the windowsill, landed steadily in front of Sylvia, and after Sylvia put a seal on its talons, it flew away.

"There may be news in a few days, I really don't want ......" Sylvia's face was a little gloomy, and she didn't finish her sentence.

Leo didn't know how to comfort her, so he could only stand next to him and gently put his arm around the other's shoulders.

Sylvia's complex feelings for the Church of the Lord of the Sky, Leo is not too clear, even if he has heard from Sylvia about her life in the Church of the Lord of the Sky when she was young, but as a cyborg warrior who was immediately sent to the battlefield after being produced, it is impossible for him to have this so-called life of youth, and he does not even have a life of his own.

However, after gradually gaining the emotions and emotions of ordinary people, Leo can understand why Sylvia is in such a mood when she suspects that the Church of the Lord of the Sky may indeed be the mastermind who killed her son.

Although the Belmont family's estate was Sylvia's home, for Sylvia in her early years, the Order of the Church of the Lord of the Sky may be her true home.

There, she avoided all kinds of miscellaneous things and dangers inside and outside the Belmont family, and grew up to the extent that she was able to take charge of herself, and she made a lot of friends and learned a lot of knowledge during her time there, and I have to say that a large part of her current achievements are due to that time.

However, the fact that the Church of the Lord of the Sky, which she now regarded as her home and family, may have been the mastermind behind the assassination of her son, made her feel a deep betrayal, and this feeling also had a very big impact on her.

Judging from the past two days, Sylvia is not in the mood to tease little Tolan and Eileen, and she often makes mistakes and omissions in reviewing documents, and is very irritable, her mentality has obviously been deeply affected.

Leo didn't take the initiative to persuade her, just temporarily gave up going to the Poseidon Church to consult various books and materials, and stayed in Castle Black to help Sylvia deal with some things and help her stabilize her mood.

In this way, after three days, Sylvia had become a little impatient with the situation of waiting for news, and began to discuss with Leo to go to the headquarters of the Lord of the Sky in the United Kingdom to directly intervene in the investigation of the matter, when the communication harrier eagle belonging to Sylvia flew back to Castle Black, landed on the windowsill of her office, and pecked at the window with her eagle's beak.

Sylvia heard the commotion and immediately looked towards the window, then stood up, walked briskly, opened the window, skillfully removed the seal from the talons, gave the prepared piece of meat to the harrier, and turned and walked back to the table.

"Why don't you open it and take a look?" Leo asked puzzled when he saw Sylvia put the seal containing the investigation report on the table and didn't open it immediately.

"Some worries. Sylvia said with a nervous face.

Leo said calmly, "You have to know. ”

"If it really ......," Sylvia said, pausing, and then continuing, "What if it was really what they did?"

"Get rid of all the participants. Leo replied without thinking, adding, "If you can't bear to do it, I'll do it." ”

Sylvia was silent for a moment, picked up the seal on the table, untied it in a special way, pulled out the investigation report stuffed inside, opened it and looked at it carefully.

Although Leo on the side didn't know what the contents of the report were, he could guess from the increasingly gloomy expression on Sylvia's face and the anger burning in her eyes that it was definitely not what Sylvia wanted to see.

After reading it twice and leaving nothing missing, Sylvia handed the investigation report to Leo.

Leo took it, and after a quick look at it, he couldn't help frowning, and said with surprise: "The Church of the Lord of the Sky is actually split?"

No wonder Leo was surprised, because looking at the various churches in the Velen world, the Church of the Lord of the Sky can be said to be the most united, even the Holy Court Relocation Plan that made a lot of noise back then did not make the Church of the Lord of the Sky show any signs of splitting, but I didn't expect that the various side effects of a world change made the Church of the Lord of the Sky on the Velon Continent, the most united branch of the church, split into two, or it is more correct to divide it into three.

Now the Church of the Lord of the Sky on the Continent of Velun has been divided into three branches that do not belong to each other, the first is the Church of the Lord of the Sky of the Empire, they have been attached to the Empire, and even completely become vassals within the Empire.

The situation in the United Kingdom is not much better, although the Church here is still able to maintain relatively independent religious power, but the Church is divided into two parts because of two ideas, one part remains in the United Kingdom, and the other part goes to the city of Miria, which has become the chaotic capital of the world.

The part of the Church of the Lord of the Sky that went to Miria should be regarded as a redemptive faction according to the classification of the current kingdom intelligence section, and the priesthood of this sect is guided by the oracle of redemption in the forty-six main scriptures of the Church of the Lord of the Sky.

In this book, there is a prophecy of God, which mentions that the world will fall into a great crisis in the future, the seas will be sealed, the world will be changed, and chaos and death will become the theme of the world, and the clergy of the Church of the Lord of the Sky will have to practice the way of salvation to save others in order to gain God's favor.

It is also because of this oracle of redemption that many people in the Church of the Lord of the Sky think that they should go to Miria City, where the situation is the most chaotic and the most abnormal in the Viron continent, to redeem the deviants there, so as to follow the oracle teachings of the Lord of the Sky.

So the Redeeming Faction, including the Sisters of Redemption led by Mama Hannah and the Poor Brotherhood led by Bishop Kubrick, gathered together and went to the city of Miria to carry out their salvation.

Although not all of the Church of the Lord of the Sky in the United Kingdom have the same ideas, they all endorse the doctrine of heresy cleansing in the Church, and these ideas also come from the Book of the Beginning of the Forty-six Lords of the Church of the Sky.

This book of the Doomsday of the Church of the Lord of the Sky is very famous, in other churches, this book is called the Book of the End, and the content is very simple, that is, the world will come to an end, there will be a great war between good and evil, normal and abnormal, and everyone needs to prepare before that big war, and weaken the enemy's power as much as possible before the war starts, so as to usher in the final victory.

This Book of the End, along with the Book of Death of the Lord of All Life and Death, and the Book of Silence of the King of the Hill, are called the Three Books of Doom, they all tell about the situation when the end comes, and both encourage believers to prepare for the end of the world, and it is also because of the three books of the End that the Orthodox Church has carried out for many years to hunt witches and cleanse heretics.

Now the Church of the Lord of the Sky in the United Kingdom uses this book as the center of its thinking, and regards the mutants as the abnormalities mentioned in the book, and hunts down these mutants, and they are also called purges.

Because the Cleans' actions helped to alleviate the social chaos and casualties caused by the large number of mutants in the United Kingdom, and because the Cleansing would not act against controlled mutants who were registered and co-opted in the United Kingdom, the United Kingdom also allowed them to carry out their cleansing plans in the United Kingdom, and gave them certain privileges while giving them a checkpoint castle in the Dibia Mountains as a station.

This not only prevents these cleansers from recruiting followers within the kingdom uncontrollably, but also allows them to use the power of the Church of the Lord of the Sky to help them defend the passage of the Dibia Mountains and prevent uncontrolled berserk mutants from running from the side of Miria.

The act of splitting the church by the Redeemers and the Purgeists, let alone in the current chaotic and bad situation, even in that peaceful situation, is a taboo for any church, and the gods of the church will definitely punish this kind of behavior, such as taking away the divine power and magic given to the clergy.

But what is strange is that the two sides who split the church not only did not receive punishment, but also received the gift of the Lord of the sky, which means that both sides are on the right path, and it is precisely because of this that the purgeists have the audacity to make the decision to assassinate the heir of Sylvia, and the cause of this decision is the mind of the destroyer.
