A nameless anger suddenly rose in Ji Yan's heart.

It actually wanted to alienate itself, and then the dusk fire surrounded the bodies of the twelve.

Under Ji Yan's control, he didn't hurt them in the slightest, but slowly burned the strange power attached to them.

This force seems to be like a cowhide, which is difficult to remove, but with the passage of time, it still slowly disappears.

The body on the surface seems to be back to normal.

But Ji Yan knew that there was no way for their souls to return to normal.

The souls of these people were deeply fused with the strange power, as if they had been contaminated by nuclear weapons, and turned into a pool of tumors.

"O Great Lord of Dusk, these are members of the Exploration Troop, and they have suffered a curse from the unknown."

At the same time, Darren was also explaining to Ji Yan.

Having never seen such a vision, he could only blame the strange thing on an unknown curse.

Curse?

What kind of curse can alienate a person's soul into such a form.

In Ji Yan's view, this force seems to be a product of the world.

He focused his attention on Darren, only to find out that he had contracted such a thing.

However, fortunately, in his Morning Star Realm, it did not touch the soul for the time being, but Rao was like this, and the damage caused to his body should not be underestimated.

Ji Yan naturally couldn't let it go and get rid of it.

The ashes of some vines fell from his sleeves, and Darren said to the Lord of Dusk above him with a solemn expression.

"Thank you, the great Lord of Twilight, for the gift of giving you a new life for foolish believers."

He then reported to Ji Yanding what had happened recently, especially focusing on the strangeness of this ruin.

"Great Lord of Dusk, I have found an important piece of news on the mural in the tunnel."

"The ruins were built for a deity, and the mural tells that the deity seems to be ......"

"It's from outside the world."

Ji Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, spreading his perception in all directions of the ruins.

Sure enough, I saw the mural that Darren described.

The lines on it are simple, and some of them are even too dry to see their original face.

But most of them are still recognizable.

According to the order, it probably tells the story of a god who came to this world by accident.

There happened to be a town at the landing site, but I don't know what happened, and in the end, there were only a few hundred people left in the town.

The last few hundred people cheered with their hands raised around the god and then built this relic for her.

The frescoes in the front are easy to understand, but in the back, they are like ghost paintings, which are completely incomprehensible.

Its black frescoes, like the twisted depths of the sea, make the viewer feel as if they have been choked by the throat and unable to breathe.

"This star really wants to retire"

And over time, there seems to be something incomprehensible in the brain.

The more you watch, the more obscure it becomes.

It was only after Darren and the exploration team saw these murals that their bodies underwent unknown changes.

However, Ji Yan didn't have much reaction to this, he simply and quickly skimmed through it, and then set his eyes on the end of the tunnel.

It was a cave with a stone slab in it, also a dark fresco.

However, a flame is drawn in the middle to illuminate and disperse it.

Ji Yan suddenly remembered the crystal stone on his table, which was covered with such a flame.

So that's the key prop?

He looked thoughtfully, then looked elsewhere in the ruins.

But there are no other clues other than something weird.

Gods outside the world......

How does that have to do with the Holy See again?

The time for the summoning is coming to an end, and Ji Yan will explain some things, and by the way, a wave of gifts will be sent down.

Then, the system beeps to sound.

"Leaving the video chat ......"

……

Continental Center, headquarters of the Holy See.

The dim light stained the white church a beautiful red.

Above the bell tower, a huge bronze bell sits quietly here, as if untouched by all things.

When a clergyman passes by, they occasionally glance at the bronze bell, followed by a hint of horror and sorrow.

Not so long ago, on the day of the Advent of the Lord of Twilight.

The bells rang non-stop, alarming the entire Holy See.

Even some of the surrounding kingdoms could hear loud noises.

That day was a complete pain for the Holy See.

The Ottoman branch disappeared, 8,456 people died.

None of the others, except the archbishop, escaped.

Even after so many days, there are still people who find it difficult to accept this result.

But it stands to reason that the Holy See, which should have lost its strength, seemed to have nothing to do, and even set off a wave on the mysterious side.

I don't know how many people want to make friends with the Holy See, and the entrance to the headquarters is a carriage with no end in sight.

This incident actually stopped the momentum of the decline of the Holy See, and its prestige was unsurpassed for a while.

There is a tendency to return to the Golden Age and become the big brother on the mysterious side.

The clergy, grieving about this, did not even know whether to cry or laugh.

But all in all, it should be a good thing.

In the interior of a brightly lit church.

The pont, smiling and smiling, was at the top of the list, while below sat several archbishop-level figures.

"The Ottoman branch is gone, and we want to re-enter, but they keep delaying it."

One of them said in a deep voice. "If the Ottomans don't want us in, what about the faith in their country, and what about the suffering people?"

One of the people next to him spoke up, with a tone of pity in his words.

"It's not that the Ottomans don't want us to enter, it's that its current ruler, the Emperor, doesn't want us to enter, and the other nobles still welcome us."

"What does the Emperor mean?"

“……”

There was an instant uproar at the meeting, and everyone was talking about how to re-enter the Ottoman Empire, and they didn't mention why the branch had disappeared.

And there is one person at the end, who is drinking water freely, and does not participate in the discussion.

Others understood his silence, after all, he was the archbishop of the Solomon Empire, and his hand could not reach out to the Ottoman Empire.

The Pope didn't stop, just smiled and watched, still up to them.

After a long time, a group of people still did not talk about a result, and finally had to disperse.

Most of the figures disappeared as if they were in vain, and it turned out to be just a projection.

Archbishop Solomon also disappeared.

There was a change in his eyes, and he suddenly appeared in his church.

He beckoned a man over and asked him.

"How's the ceremony going?"

"My lord, she's already in a desperate situation, and it's only going to be a few months away......"

When Archbishop Solomon heard this, a smile suddenly split into the corners of his mouth, and something seemed to be wandering in his eyes.
