In fact, from Hua Mingshu's point of view, his plan was also executed very successfully.

Because after he became incognito, the church did not send pursuers to hunt him down or wanted him, and even his angelic aura was not withdrawn. It just locked him up and logged into the angelic system, and then it was like forgetting about him.

Until today, Russell thought it was because the old pigeon was too small.

After all, he was only a "healer", a subordinate angel of the lowest rank. Perhaps the church has a casual attitude of "lose it, lose it" and are too lazy to pursue this matter - but, by extension, there should be many such defectors in other places.

But now that I think about it...... Maybe Hua Mingshu is the special one. After all, Russell had come into contact with so many empty islands and so many secrets, but he really didn't see the second defecting angel again. Hua Mingshu has never been in contact with his own kind.

And Paradise Bird was able to be accepted by the church so easily, and was granted the bishop position on the first day, is it really just because she has awakened the ability of a "saint" and can use the power of angel-level holy rank without relying on aura? Will the church, which sells "angelic products" to mages and elves, become so pious and humble to the saints?

There are only seven angels on the island of happiness, and two of them are with the paradise birds... And it happens to be the one with the strongest combat effectiveness, plus the one with the strongest protection ability.

That's not so much surveillance as protection. If it was surveillance, there was no reason for them to trade Paradisebird to the Special Enforcement Department and let her run around. The church has positions that can be arranged for her, and she can easily be kept in captivity and placed under house arrest.

Russell probably understood when he thought of this.

The church has no reason to hunt down Hua Mingshu, not because Hua Mingshu's incognito is really useful... Instead, someone took care of it for him and paid the price for him.

That person is probably the Bishop.

He directly said Hua Mingshu's name to Russell, not his code name. It has been a hundred years since Hua Mingshu left the Cyber Church. He can also blurt out and clearly state the other person's name; Across an empty island, the Bishop knew that Russell had saved the Bird of Paradise......

If it weren't for the name of the Paradise Bird, it would have spread all over the seven islands...... It can only be said that he has always been secretly concerned about Hua Mingshu and his descendants.

So Russell was also curious—who was the Bishop?

At this time, Delphinium quietly picked Russell's arm and asked Russell to take a serious look at the message she sent.

"—How shall I address the Bishop? Wouldn't it be too distant, just calling the Bishop?"

「… I don't know."

Russell hesitated for a moment and gave a high-quality answer.

Looking at the delphinium's angry bulging cheeks, Russell reached out to poke it and shook his head helplessly.

"I really don't know."

He reached out to cover his mouth and whispered in the delphinium's ear, "People call him Lord Bishop, and that's what Mother calls him...... Everyone respected him, and no one knew what the Bishop was called. The Bishop is allowed to come and preach, and he and our Church Father, Dr. Zomby, are of a great rank."

Russell didn't even know what kind of bishop the "Lord Bishop" was. Rather, for the Bishop, the title "Lord Bishop" itself has become the same code name as the "Godfather".

"—are you discussing my name?"

At this moment, the old man suddenly stopped and looked back slightly.

Russell and Delphinium were shocked. Although one of them is a ninth-level psionic, and the other has also touched the edge of ninth-level, they are also all big names at the level of ministers of the head office...... But just by the old man's glance, he can still feel a sense of majesty and horror as if a primary school student was glared at by the head teacher.

「…… Yes, I'm a little curious."

Russell reached out and pulled the delphinium back, motioning for her to hide

Speak.

After all, his identity and knowledge are different now, so Russell dared to ask, "I can know... What is your name and identity?" "There's nothing you can't do."

The old man stepped forward again and said flatly, "There is nothing unseemly about this kind of thing, there is no need to hide in the dark and discuss it secretly. If you ask, I'll answer."

He paused slightly, and then continued, "If you ask about the position, I have been called 'General,' before; If you ask me what I have to do with Hua Mingshu, he used to call me a senior and a mentor.

"Although I am related to him in the pigeon family, I am not actually related to him in any way. It's just that because we have the same spiritual relatives, we take a little care of him on weekdays. If you ask me what code name I used before...... Then I'm afraid you'll be disappointed.

"That's a very simple name. There's nothing eye-catching, and it's not flashy and individual. They call me 'White Feather,'"

The old man said calmly, "Of course, Wendy and I are not related by blood. When I gave him the code name, 'Bishop,' I actually wanted to retire, but now it seems that he wants me to do it a little longer."

"General..."

Russell chewed slowly on the unfamiliar word.

He realized that he might have even underestimated the age of the Bishop. He was far more than one hundred and twenty years old...... Perhaps a hundred years ago, he would have been an old man.

Russell suddenly realized something: "You're not an angel?"

"I'm human."

The old man replied flatly, "Pure human."

However, this answer seems to Russell to be somewhat ambiguous. He didn't give a clear answer as to whether he was a former angel or not...... Or maybe he and the church don't intend to see angels as purely human.

Russell wanted to ask, but their destination had already arrived.

Not all churches look after cemeteries. On Sogo, the care of the cemetery is a rather sacred task, and it is certainly not built on flat ground...... It's just as gorgeous as the rest of Sogo's buildings.

The delphinch's eyes widened suddenly.

Surrounded by chants, she finally saw what the "cemetery" on Sogo Island looked like.

In the center of the room is a faceless female angel jade carving.

She opened her arms widely, like a mother. Behind her were three pairs of soft-looking white wings, but the wings and her body were carved out of pure white jade as a whole.

Around her were triple golden rings that swirled at different angles and speeds. Under the extremely bright light above its head, it flashed a brilliant light from time to time at a very coincidental angle.

The environment is filled with rich wood incense, and it is reminiscent of a quaint library.

In addition to the direction of entering the door, there are seven different directions. There are a large number of "bookshelves" in each direction, and each bookcase is full of jars of different sizes, styles, and magnificences. All jars are covered with a glass enclosure on the outside, and a dynamic 'photo album' emerges from the jar, which contains ever-changing color photographs.

"Looking for 'Alice,'"

The Bishop spoke in front of the statue of the angel.

The stone angel statue emitted a divine sonata of several different female voices overlapping: "A total of 12 results were found."

"The one who died last year."

"Positioned: Wing 3rd Plane A, 2nd Row 1."

As the chorus of angels sounded, the delphinium squinted and saw a spot not far away that was shining.

They didn't go very far.

The third "shelf", the far left of the second row from top to bottom, is Alice's place.

Her "moving photos" are shining brightly, guiding the way. When Russell approached, it scanned Russell's face and opened the glass cover automatically. And the light stopped.

"I need to leave for a while

Would you like to have a meeting?"

The old man asked with concern.

"Then I'm sorry for you."

Russell did not make a hypocritical modesty, but simply responded to the truth.

"If you don't know how to get out, ask the guiding angel."

The Bishop nodded, and said calmly, "There's something going on after that—I'll be waiting for you outside the door."
