The Night Heron brings some important information, and also gives another interpretation of the war that broke out in the Third Neutral Country.

This was not a war of invasion, but the result of a head-on clash between the Barossa Group and the forces of the Eclipse Cult, with each side seeing each other as their greatest rivals when the Rite of the End began.

In fact, despite the fact that both the Eclipse Cult and the Barossa Bloc are members of the Third Neutral Nation, the relationship between the two has always been unharmonious, and the two sides have barely maintained a superficial relationship in the past due to the great enemy of the coalition government.

But privately, the Eclipse cult considers the Barossa to be a pagan with no faith to speak of, blinded by money and wealth; The Barossa group, on the other hand, believes that the followers of the Eclipse Cult are fools who have been drained of their brains by unfounded beliefs.

The arrival of the festival lifts the last fig leaf, and the two forces, who are not used to seeing each other, face each other.

Song Lan understood the essence of the Sacrifice of the End from the many information revealed by the Night Heron - this is a large-scale live-eating event that takes place in the Third Neutral Country, and only the last person who survives can become the ultimate winner and accept the baptism from the Father.

That's why she had to travel thousands of miles to the Seventeenth District as a messenger.

The festival must be fully numerous, and in addition to the "leaders of the swarm", they must also gather the rest of the people who have heard the Father's call to the Third Neutral.

Considering the fairness of the festival, in order to prevent the participants of the festival from dying at the hands of those mutated creatures before arriving in the core city of the festival, Night Heron took the initiative to take on the role of guide, which she believes is also a manifestation of the archbishop's kindness and fairness, and the church has never disdained to use improper means to eradicate dissidents.

The faithful are convinced that they will be the victors, and that all heresy will be judged after this great sacrifice.

These heresies, of course, also include coalition governments.

The way the night heron said goodbye was as special as her arrival.

Opening the window and taking a deep leap, a pair of bat-like wings grew behind her made her glide through the night sky for a long distance, and disappeared into the night sky in the blink of an eye.

The two were convinced that the girl, though she looked human, was in fact something else.

The high-level of the insect swarm launched an emergency video conference overnight, and Father Bruno, who was once the high-ranking of the Eclipse Sect, confirmed Lu Xiang and Song Lan's speculation.

Even within the Eclipse Cult, the identity of the Night Heron is extremely special.

Although the relationship between the Eclipse Cult and the Barossa Cult has since become increasingly sour, there was also a honeymoon period in the early days of the alliance between the two sides, during which the two sides shared each other's technology on a certain level, and the Night Heron and her sisters were the product of the fusion of the Barossa Group's genetic engineering and the Eclipse Cult's belief system.

Fr. Bruno was a witness to this integration project.

He witnessed the chosen children being injected with the genetic fusion drugs provided by the Barossa Group, and then sent to the "mines" by the Church's nuns.

A month later, the Sisters found survivors, including the Night Heron, on the outskirts of the "Mine", and to their surprise, it seemed like more than 20 years had passed for this group of children, who had grown at an astonishing rate, from six or seven years old to now in their twenties.

After being sent back to the church, the congregants were surprised to find something unusual about them.

They can grow wings or conjure up forelimbs for digging into the ground, and when they are thrown into the lake, gills appear around their necks.

Running as fast as a machine, they can tear metal to pieces with their bare hands at any time if they want to.

Not only that, but they have an incredibly high appetite, and they have also retained the habit they have developed in the "mines" - eating corpses.

Mutated creatures they captured, or infidels who were executed for rebelling against the Church, became their food.

The archbishop recorded their existence in the Church's legal code, but even the archbishop himself did not know if they were still human, and if not, what kind of creatures had they been turned into by the genetic medicine of the Barossa Group?

In order to calm the panic caused by the Nightheron and her sisters, the Archbishop had to send them to the uninhabited "Mine" to take charge of the daily maintenance and defense work, and the Church gave them the title of "Angel of Death", and under various rumors, the Nightheron and her sisters became a presence that even the Christians would fear.

Hearing this, Lu Xiang and Song Lan both showed subtle expressions.

They vaguely guessed the blood left on the night heron's fingernails and the origin of the pieces of flesh.

After telling the origin of the "Angel of Death", Father Bruno once again fell into deep thought, because in his opinion, more noteworthy than the night heron itself was the end sacrifice she was talking about.

You must know that he has been in a high position in the Eclipse Cult, and he has never heard anything about the Sacrifice of the End, the father God mentioned by the Night Heron is undoubtedly referring to the Moon God, and in the Church, the only one who can communicate with the Moon God is the Archbishop himself, but the strange thing is that if this festival is an order given by the Moon God, then why are there more "Chosen Ones" in the Barossa Group being involved?

The Barossa Group is the largest arms organization in neutral countries, with operations spread across the country and a thoroughly atheistic force.

The eclipse between the Lunar Eclipse Cult and the Barossa Group began with their reluctance to believe in the existence of the Luna God and their denial of the Luna Doctrine.

After arriving in the 17th District and breaking away from the Eclipse Cult, Father Bruno was finally able to see the moon god from the perspective of a bystander, and he once thought that the true face of the moon god was most likely the will of the Devourer, but the arrival of this festival made him doubt the credibility of this theory.

Don't......

Does God Really Exist?

Otherwise, how could it accurately know the existence of each Chosen One, and how could it convey its consciousness to them, even the Seventeen Districts thousands of miles apart?

I'm afraid this secret can only be known when they arrive in the territory of the Third Neutral Country, or even go deep into the "mines".

The "Mine" hides countless secrets, but the monsters and brutal consciousness that roam inside will tear anyone who wants to explore these secrets to pieces, and even the Archbishop himself has never set foot in the deepest part of the "Mine".

Father Bruno had a strange premonition.

The hunch told him that it might not be any of the Chosen One who could reach the deepest part of the "Mine", but Song Lan, a person who had nothing to do with the festival.

He and the Devourer had been studying Song Lan for a long time, and perhaps his power, which could not be explained by common sense, had some connection with the deepest secrets of the "Mine".

And before the expedition began, another problem lay before them.

If the Third Neutral has become a battlefield for the Chosen One, the advance force sent by the Coalition Government will never return.

The exoskeleton armor could not help them withstand the heavy firepower of the Barossa Group, nor could it help them resist the erosion from the "Luna".

Father Bruno foresaw their end.

Turned into stumps and severed arms under the baptism of artillery fire, and fell into complete madness under the echo of the moon god.

Although the expeditionary force was filled with gangsters and criminals, many more citizens responded to the call for conscription.

"It is impossible to artificially terminate this expedition."

In the past half a week, Lu Xiang has recognized the current situation.

Not to mention stopping the expedition, anyone who opposes or questions the conscription will be regarded as a spy of the rebels and an enemy of the coalition government.

At this moment, the entire coalition government is shrouded in the heat of war.

So, they can only watch this army of up to tens of thousands of people go to the front line to die?

Lu Xiang really couldn't have imagined that he, as the head of the regional law enforcement department, would one day need to break his heart for the coalition government's expedition.

She turned to Song Lan, who had not spoken since the beginning of the meeting, hoping that he would participate in the discussion of this thorny issue, "Song Lan, what do you think?" ”
