Chapter 577: Why did the Bishop rebel?
Lu Xiang soon realized that the night heron didn't have any relevant knowledge.
But this is not surprising, after all, the "Angels of Death" of the Eclipse Cult have been sent to the "mines" since they can remember, and have been away from human society for a long time since then, guarding the safety of the psionic seal.
Perhaps Archbishop Heliface didn't want the elite killer army loyal to her to know much.
Fortunately, she doesn't need to worry about the church's "dead angels" falling into the trouble of early love, although they do have angelic faces, but in the eyes of the church, these are the Grim Reapers, who eat people and don't spit out bones, I'm afraid that only in some fantasy works with love themes, there will be warriors willing to love them.
The night heron listened very carefully.
This trip to District 17 made her realize that there are still many things in this world that she does not know.
However, she had little interest in the love that the swarm leader was talking about, especially the gestures that sounded too intimate, and in that case, she could hardly guarantee that she wouldn't have the idea of biting the other.
But she understood two things:
Lu Xiang is a woman like her.
She is not suitable for too many intimate actions with Song Lan.
And after breaking into the room of the two for nearly half an hour, Yelu finally remembered the reason why she came to find Lu Xiang and Song Lan - "Father Delari was wronged, he did not apostatize!" ”
She wanted to tell them the good news as soon as possible, since Father Delari was one of the closest people she had in the church.
"How's the situation out there now?"
Song Lan buried her body in the quilt, leaving only her head outside.
More than half an hour had passed since the end of the trial, but the believers showed no sign of returning to the hotel, which was still surprisingly quiet.
"When I returned, they surrounded the Inquisition!"
The trial of the apostate did not end with the resurrection of Father Delari, but the target shifted to the Inquisition and the sinner Egger.
Now it's no longer a matter of the "pit" getting out of control, it's that they believe Iger must pay for his crime of burning thirteen innocent souls.
They propose to tie Iger and his minions to a stake as well, so that they can experience what it feels like for their bodies to be burned in the karmic fires of hell.
Song Lan, who was in the nest, shook her head when she heard this.
Father Delarry had not listened to a word of what the Christians had said, and he now suspected that the fanatical Christians were just trying to find a random excuse to tie people to a pillar and watch them burn to death.
Song Lan felt that if he was the father of these disciples, he would definitely be angry with them.
Fortunately, he is just a pure passerby, and he can witness everything that is happening in Antigan now with the mentality of having fun.
"How long have they been surrounding the Inquisition?"
"It's been about half an hour now."
"And what did Father Egger say?"
"I'll go see ......"
Night Heron is a man of action, she jumped straight from the window of the hotel and brought the "frontline information" back in less than two minutes, "They say that Father Iger is a coward who has been hiding in the courtroom and is afraid to come out. ”
On the other hand, however, the Inquisition is the law enforcement agency within the Church, and they are equipped with the best weapons of the Church, and no one dares to actually rush into the Inquisition and take him to the execution seat until the Archbishop himself gives an order, and according to the doctrine, only the Archbishop has the right to dispose of the Chief Inquisitor.
So the current situation is that the believers are gathered outside and criticize what Iger has done.
But in Song Lan's view, the intensity of verbal criticism is actually the same as the keyboard trolls on the coalition government's network, and it is difficult to change any status quo except to vent emotions.
And it is not clear that the invectives of the cultists did not reach the ears of Iger himself.
"If nothing else, your Father Egger should have fled."
"He ran away!?"
The night heron suddenly became anxious.
Although in principle she should have waited for the archbishop to give the order himself, she was in favor of the execution of the apostate Egger, who not only framed and killed thirteen innocent people for the sake of power and discourse, but also sent the venerable Father Delari to the execution table.
If it weren't for the wrath of the Father, they would still be kept in the dark.
Song Lan is right, Egger is a hateful bald guy!
"He must not be allowed to escape!"
Seeing the night heron once again turn over and jump from the window in a rage, Lu Xiang was about to be speechless for this simple-minded little girl, she felt that the night heron might not be able to tell who was the real apostate until now, just because there were more people talking on the other side, she believed it.
is too simple and full of action, and can only be said to be worthy of the choice of the archbishop.
"By the way, how did you know Egger was an apostate?"
Lu Xiang turned her attention back to Song Lan and asked, as the only person in the know, she knew very well that whether it was the psionic storm on the outskirts of Cansariel Town, or the tide of the Sea of Souls that stopped the execution, it was not a miracle of "Father God" as the Lunar Eclipse Cultists believed, but the personal judgment of a crowd of onlookers.
But in fact, both factions make sense, and until now, they still don't know who the assassins of the saints are, and in her opinion, Father Egger is accused of being framed for the sake of power, not necessarily the assassination of the saints.
"I don't know."
Being in the warm quilt, Song Lan relaxed a lot.
Now that he was about to merge with the bed, no one would be able to drive him out of this temporary nest until dawn to-morrow.
"You don't know?"
Lu Xiang repeated in surprise, and then asked, "That guy saved Father Delary?" ”
"I'm trying to trick Egger and try his flexibility."
This explanation made Lu Xiang's eyes darken, she never expected that this scene was comparable to a miracle, and the reason behind it was third-degree burns.
And Song Lan did come up with a set of reasonable and convincing theories, "If Iger had a clear conscience, he would have argued with Drary in front of 'Father', but he didn't even have the courage to face 'Father' and slipped away faster than anyone else, which is a manifestation of lack of flexibility." ”
He has also been exposed to some of the teachings of the Eclipse Sect these days.
Among them, they believe that "God the Father" is an all-knowing and all-powerful being, and that no matter how high-sounding the believers may be on the surface, "God the Father" can see the truest thoughts in their hearts.
In fact, it turns out that Iger is simply trying to take advantage of the chaos and eradicate dissidents, leaving the church with his voice alone.
"Then who do you think is the culprit who broke the psionic seal?"
"Didn't you notice that there's a key figure who hasn't been seen since we've been here?"
"You mean the archbishop?"
Lu Xiang immediately understood what Song Lan meant.
According to Nightheron, Archbishop Heliface needs to preside over the big and small affairs of guarding against mutant invasions, and he can't find time to meet with them for the time being.
But with such a great upheaval under his nose, and the congregation already surrounding the court, it is somewhat intriguing that the archbishop has not shown up for a long time.
Song Lan raised her suspicions, "Is her archbishop herself really still in Antigang now?" ”
"That's why you encouraged the night heron to hunt down Egger."
Lu Xiang suddenly realized.
Egger, who had fled from the apostasy, was arrested and returned to Antigan with "all the stolen goods", and even if the archbishop had a million reasons, he would have to show his face.
