CHAPTER IX

Liu Lei vomited a few more mouthfuls of blood on the way home, and Kontat's trident hurt him a lot, after all, the strength of the combined angel was not ordinarily strong. After calling Hackman, he took the Civilization Star into his body, but the original energy on the Civilization Star was transmitted to all injured parts of his body through the meridians around his body, slowly but never stopping to repair his severely damaged body.

Soon after Liu Lei left, the paralyzed Cantat stood up, patted the dust on his body casually, picked up the two codes that had been changed back to his original surname and an angel carved from olive wood that had fallen on the ground, and then walked to the side of the cave to the stone wall, opened a secret compartment on the stone wall, took out the gold ark hidden by the Pope from it, and disappeared step by step at the mouth of the cave.

Hackman was so confused, Liu Lei was too bold, he must have been crazy, he dared to kill the Pope! God, he didn't know how many Catholics there were in this world, and how much shock the Pope's death would bring? Moreover, how could he explain the cause of the Pope's death to so many Christians? Hackman turned his head to look at the busy reconstruction site of the Papal Palace, and sighed in his heart, "This side has not been busy yet, and there has been another accident there-Pope, it seems that you are not blessed to live in this newly built Papal Palace, and you can only leave it to the next Pope.

The chaotic one was asking his subordinates, the progress of the collection of the Hundred Aged Acorns, and suddenly the breath of the pope's combined angel alarmed him, the chaotic one suddenly stopped talking, and the druids who were listening to the instructions below looked up at the chaotic one with anxiety in his heart, and found the chaotic one; his face was cloudy, his face changed for a while, and he suddenly waved his hand and said to him: "Go down!" The druid cautiously retreated, scared to death, not knowing that he had offended the Lord of the Chaos there, but fearing that the catastrophe was not far away, and his legs were shaking when he withdrew.

The High Priest in the shadows slipped out and said to the Chaos, "You scared that child...... The Chaosman shook his hand and said, "It doesn't matter - you feel it too?" "What did you feel? Combined Angel Warriors? Didn't you have a premonition that the Holy See would have them?" the High Priest asked. The Chaos was a little impatient: "Two! Two Combined Angel Warriors were born! The power of the Holy See has increased greatly! Although I had already guessed that they would summon such forbidden creatures sooner or later, but I didn't expect them to be two at a time!" The High Priest said: "What's this? One or two, both of them are against the natural order, and they don't care about one or two ......more" "No!" The Chaos said: "Our Oak God Warriors don't know how many there are, if there is only one, then how can we fight against them!" High Priest, tell me, how many Oak warriors would hear our prayers when summoned at one time?"

The High Priest pondered and said, "Normally, there is only one!" The chaotic man's eyes were disappointed, and he asked after a while, "Is there any way to increase the number?" The high priest smiled, and the wrinkles on his face bloomed: "Don't you still have allies in the Dark Society?" The chaotic man hurriedly said: "Are you still joking with me? Those guys who can't see the light are not reliable at all, and they will definitely fight in the future! Moreover, the Dark Society already has two forbidden creatures even if Liu Lei is counted!"

The High Priest shook his head: "Honorable Leader, you have two mistakes: first, Liu Lei is not a forbidden creature even though his strength is very strong, almost on par with the forbidden creature, but he is not, because his power does not come entirely from himself - this is my feeling, as a high priest's intuition. Second, there are definitely more than two forbidden creatures in the dark world, but these forbidden creatures will not come out against us. ”

"How do you know?" asked the Disruptor with a frown, and the High Priest replied with a slight smile, "What the God of Nature told me - although you are the leader, it is undeniable that I am the druid closest to God, so the God will convey to me some information through some medium that is not known!"

The Disruptor nodded, it had been the rule of the Druid Church for thousands of years, each generation would produce two leaders, and at the end of the day they would have to make their own choice: whether to be the supreme leader of the Chaos or the High Priest closest to God. Those who choose the Chaos will lose the ability to communicate directly with the gods, and the High Priest will lose absolute control over the entire Druid Order. If two people have the same choice, then it is up to God to decide their future.

"How can we increase the number of Acorn warriors?" asked the chaotic man impatiently, and the High Priest shook his head secretly, "Honorable leader, you already have the answer in your own heart, why do you have to let me say it?

The Chaos had anger in his eyes, and glared fiercely at the High Priest, who did not care about his gaze, and looked down at his arm, which was already like a dead branch, and the High Priest said with emotion: "Look, this is the price of being closest to God - in order to conform to God's will, I must obey His order, and in just a few hundred years, I will grow old like this, I am afraid that even a hundred years of oak trees will not be comparable to - and you, as the Chaos One, do not have to, look how young you are!"

The Disruptor ripped off his hood, revealing a young, handsome face, but with anger on it. "Karez!" The Chaos directly called out the name of the High Priest, "Are you dissatisfied with the decision of the God back then?" The High Priest shook his head and said, "My esteemed leader, the Chaosman, my childhood friend Moncato, you see, I am already like this, why do you want me to bear too many sins? You know, you must know how to make more Oak warriors hear our prayers, but obviously in the current social conditions, I am afraid it is difficult to be accepted to propose such a practice, so let me say it, right?"

The High Priest was undaunted to meet the Chaos who was about to burst into flames, and his eyes met him. The anger in the eyes of the chaotic man suddenly disappeared in an instant, and he smiled at the high priest and said, "Okay, Karez, what's the use of this, do you mean the sacrifice of a living person, what is this, I'll announce it......"

The high priest said slowly: "Yes, the blood of the devout believers is a parachute of dandelions, which can bring our prayers to a wider and wider area, so that more oak warriors can hear our prayers! Becoming a sacrifice to the gods, in their eyes now, is not so glorious, maybe it is still so glorious, but it can no longer attract them to give up their lives. ”

The Disruptor shook his head and said, "I'll solve these problems, as long as you tell me how many living people can add an Oak God Warrior?"

The High Priest bowed his head and pondered for a moment and said, "About ten parachutes will be enough for another Oak Warrior to hear our prayers!" The Chaos nodded understandingly and said, "We need forty parachutes so that we can summon five Oak Warriors!" The High Priest was shocked, and asked in confusion for a long time, "What do you want to do? No, no, no, dear High Priest, didn't you also say it, God told you that there are many forbidden creatures in the Dark Society, and there are many in the Holy See, so I'm just adding a little bit of self-preservation!"

"But didn't I say that the forbidden creatures of the Dark Society won't go to war!" said the High Priest anxiously. "Not necessarily......" said the chaotic man, "in case the real Liu Lei finds them out......" "But only the blood of truly devout Druids can be the medium of the message—forty, they are all children of God like us, our brothers and sisters! You bear ......" The chaotic interrupted him and said coldly, "This is their glory!" He put back on his hood and walked outside: "I'll arrange everything!"

Liu Lei is now recuperating at home, Nia and Bai Fan have already woken up, Liu Lei asked someone to remove the two small beds and replace them with their previous big beds, the three of them lay on the bed side by side, looking at each other and smiling, all tenderness and sweetness are not spoken.

Liu Lei's injuries were actually not too serious, at least he was able to return home soberly on his own. It's just that the light power on the trident has seriously affected his recovery speed. While recuperating from his wounds, he carefully studied the half of the Codex that he had snatched from the Pope that day.

He was very strange, this half of the code - in fact, it can't be counted as half a piece, there is only one corner - although it is only a small piece, it still has infinite holy power, as if he can generate holy power himself, which makes Liu Lei very puzzled. This small piece of agate Liu Lei's Yuan Shen couldn't penetrate it, and there was no way to see the structure inside. Whenever he probed the Yuan Shen into the agate, he would be pushed out by a force, and that force would not attack, but just pushed him out, Liu Lei was very strange, it seems that this so-called God's handwriting is really a bit of a doorway.

Thinking of this, Liu Lei suddenly remembered that he had left in too haste, and he had forgotten to take back the two complete pieces of agate together, and he had cheapened Cantat for nothing, thinking about the trident that Cantate had inserted on his back, Liu Lei hated it. Now in the Holy See, the only thing he can look at is the two codes of God's handwriting, and the others, like the previous artifacts, have long been ignored.

He remembered the conversation with Cain in that mysterious world, the feeling Cain gave him a heartbeat, and he could not forget it. But what Cain said to him, he didn't think too clearly about it until now, Cain's words seemed to be very simple, but when he thought about it again, he found that he didn't say what he should do at all, he just pointed out a direction, telling Liu Lei and the three generations of blood clans which direction to develop.

Thinking of that strange world, Liu Lei had countless guesses, where is it? Could it be that it is the divine realm that Europeans often say? But that seems to be too far from the legend. And as a demon, how could Cain enter the divine realm? That sentence should be the demon realm, but it is not like it, it doesn't seem to be as barren as the legend.

In fact, Liu Lei didn't see the whole picture of that world at all, he had no concept at all, what that world was like, just a short glance, and he immediately couldn't bear to be beaten back to the original world. "High-level ......" Liu Lei chewed on the word Cain said at the time, and wondered in his heart, how can a high-level one be like the "fairy world" that the monks of Middle Earth often say: when you cultivate to a certain period, you can soar, because your level has reached.

What is the connection between the two? In that world, you can see the past and the future, and if you don't like it, you can modify your past at will, and you can also modify your future at will! Thinking about it, Liu Lei was a little excited, and this kind of life seemed very attractive!

Mienyi and Yoon Ta Yi came to see him together, but apparently the problem between them was not really resolved. The two of them walked together, seemingly intimate, but even Liu Lei could feel the distance between them. It's a good start, but for now, it seems that there are a few other factors that are needed for them to go back to the way things were. Hoth was officially included in Liu Lei's door wall, but unfortunately Liu Lei was quickly injured and had no time to teach him, and now, in this house, all the people are lying on the bed, so he has to let him learn by himself. Liu Lei told him the mantra for half an hour every day, and the cultivation he came down to rely on himself.

Liu Lei took the ornament around Hoss's neck and studied it carefully, this goddess statue is very strange, her dress Liu Lei can't tell which country or era it is - her armor is very simple, only three pieces protect the vital points around the body, she does not wear a helmet, and she wears red and green underwear to prevent the armor from abrasive her body. The bow and arrow she uses are different from ordinary bows and arrows, the distance between the bow and the bow is very close, and the whole bow and arrow looks very narrow and long, and if the bow is not pulled away, it is more like a long knife than a bow. The goddess carried a quiver behind her back, which was tethered to her body by three ropes, and in it were stuck nine arrows of various colors. The goddess drew her bow and held three arrows in her hand, each of which was of a different color.

Liu Lei could feel the mysterious energy contained in the statue, this energy was very powerful, although it could not be compared with the Pangu Axe, but it was also more powerful than him now. Of course, this energy is still in its dormant period, so Hoss and his ancestors have not received any support from this energy. Liu Lei hopes that with this energy, he can instantly increase Hoth's strength, so that he can become a master in his own right, and truly bear the burden of being the leader and apprentice of the Dark Society.

He sank the primordial god into the idol, and there was nothing inside. The whole idol was dark, and he had been stumbling around for a long time, without a trace of light. He didn't give up, and searched carefully again, but still found nothing—the idol was like a hollowed-out tree trunk. He was very strange, the original god returned to his body, he looked at the goddess statue again, and obviously felt that it was a sleeping lioness! Strange, Liu Tixin said, why can't I find this energy, where is it hidden? It seems that this energy is still very smart, at least it knows how to make others unable to find itself when it is asleep - just like a hibernating bear.

Liu Tired rubbed the statue of the goddess in his hand, and had a plan in his heart. He had to start with the identity of the goddess to find out where she came from and which ethnic deity she was. But he wouldn't be stupid enough to ask Hoss directly, this kid must know less than he does, and if it weren't for the fact that he still has a little respect for him, this idol would have become some antique dealer's collection.

"Hathaway!" he shouted. Hathaway is the new housekeeper, a female Bloodliner, who temporarily acts as the housekeeper while Veer is recuperating from her injuries. This woman likes to wear a well-fitting work suit, and looks more like a white-collar worker than a housekeeper - she has always been involved in human society, and has worked as a senior executive in many multinational companies. Hathaway is meticulous in her work, which often makes Liu Ti cry and laugh. As soon as Liu Lei's voice fell, Hathaway floated in like a shadow, and Liu Lei felt a little choked - but it was better than Will always appearing silently beside the guests.

"Command, sir!" Hathaway said, bending slightly. Liu Lei said: "Go out and find an archaeologist, I want to identify something, remember, I want to be very professional, don't find me some liars!" Hathaway bowed and said, "As you wish, sir!" She turned and floated out.

She went out for less than ten seconds, and floated back, Liu Lei wondered: "Why are you back again, why don't you go and look for it?" Hathaway bowed slightly: "As you wish, sir, the archaeologist is here!" "Well, so fast? Where is the man, where is it, where ......" He craned his neck to look behind Hathaway.

Hathaway's back was empty, and Liu Ti looked at Hathaway puzzled: "What about the archaeologist you are talking about?" Hathaway spread his hands: "It's here!" Liu Lei frowned and said, "What are you talking about, it's you?" Hathaway bowed slightly: "Yes sir, I have been in the world's best archaeological excavation team for thirty years, so, Dr. Hathaway is at your service!" Liu Lei fainted: "Then why didn't you just say it directly, what did you run out for?"

"But you want me to 'go out' to find an expert in archaeology. Of course I'm going to do as I was told, 'go out and find out,' and do exactly what you tell me to do—if you ask me who an archaeologist is, I'll tell you at once that Hathaway is!" Hathaway replied. Liu Lei rolled his eyes, waved his hand again and again, and said, "Okay, okay, I won't argue with you about this." He handed the statue of the goddess out: "You can help me see which country and what era it is!"

Hathaway looked at the statue and put the chain in order, first carefully examining the whole ornament, and frowned, obviously something confused him. She turned the statue over and over again and looked at it several times, but there was no positive answer in her mind. She pulled out a magnifying glass and slowly moved it back and forth over the idol. Liu Lei watched her movements nervously on the side, eager to know that this was the god of that nation.

A full half an hour passed, Liu Lei was a little impatient, and finally Hathaway put away the magnifying glass, there was excitement between her eyebrows, she said to Liu Lei in a trembling voice: "Sir, if I am not mistaken, this statue, it is a cultural relic of Atlantis, she is the god of the Great Western Kingdom!";
