In the vision of Aihuas's right eye, countless white points of light appeared above Cardinal Loki's corpse, like a surging river, constantly rushing towards Aihuas.

[Kill the fifth-level transcendent and gain 1500 free experience]

A long-lost reminder of experience appeared in front of Aihuas's eyes, proving that Cardinal Loki was indeed dead.

Since he sat in the position of minister, it has been a long time since he has killed anyone himself.

But......

Isn't this experience a bit less?

A trace of doubt rose in Aihuas's heart.

The Giant Prince Wolfram has two thousand experiences, and Cardinal Loki, as the former Patriarch of the High Heavens, must be of much higher rank than him.

…… But if you say that you are not dead, it is unlikely.

None of the people who have been harvested by Ivas so far have survived.

But Ivas always felt that Cardinal Loki's death was not so simple.

Because Loki saw himself in the end, but he didn't attack himself - even if his attack might not kill Evas, but with Vignes's character, she would definitely defend herself. When the time comes, Loki may have a chance to fight back or escape......

However, he used a long forward swing to detonate.

Isn't that waiting to be interrupted?

Plus he himself said it...... He wanted to skip the fight, because he couldn't beat Ivus. That means that he at least knows about the existence of the sixth energy level of Vignes.

Aihuas also thought that if he dared to go to war, he would pull out the "perfect man" - if it was a perfect person of the sixth level of the Double Path, it would be an enemy who would be sweating profusely even the Eternal Pope. In that dungeon, it's basically the Eternal Pope and the Perfect Man all kinds of light cannons, and in essence, it is the Eternal Pope who kills the other party, and the player is only responsible for making a move...... It is a performative copy.

So Eivus took the blood light very seriously—and fought back the moment it attacked him.

But the other party was unexpectedly weak.

Being able to be instantly sealed by the Night Demon means that it is not a sixth energy level at all.

…… Wait, put it that way. What about the perfect man?

"Vignes, where's the blood?"

Ivus noticed that the orb that had been sealed before suddenly disappeared, so he immediately asked, "Did you just escape?" ”

"No, it's just a mirror projection, similar to the doppelganger projected by the master."

The night demon shook his head slightly, and let out an ethereal voice: "After being attacked by its master with a flame butterfly, it quickly dissipated on its own. ”

“…… I see. ”

Ivus narrowed his eyes slightly, and said the only answer: "Loki is looking for death......"

As he said to Ehuas, they were not enemies.

He and Ivas also have no fundamental conflict of interest, and killing Ivus will not do him any good. With Cardinal Loki's character, he had no reason to attack Ivus suddenly...... But he just did.

He took the initiative to attack Ivus, hoping that Ivas would kill him in the name of "legitimate defense".

But what did he want to do......

Do you want to give up this identity?

However, he was indeed able to use the high divine magic to borrow the power of the Candle - which showed that he was extremely high on the side of the Candle, even higher than Ivus, and he was firmly on the path of dedication.

With the power of Si Candle, as a fifth-level person, he can even play a few tricks with the night demon who has eaten the triple buff of Ivus and is strengthened by the great sin...... Although he didn't even get a minute of Aivus's invisibility, he at least made some resistance.

- There was no need for him to give up this identity.

…… Can you ask through prayer? Is Cardinal Loki dead or not?

The thought crossed Aives' mind.

But soon he dispersed it again—

Except for the apostles like Queen Sophia, who have long been appointed, it will be almost a week after the death of a person to be selected by the pillar gods and celestial divisions. Not to mention that even if Cardinal Loki were to die, he wouldn't be able to survive in any river...... Moreover, with Cardinal Loki's position on the candle's side, Ivus asked prayers from the candle's side, and most of the questions could not be answered.

“…… Si Zhu actually trusted him so much. ”

Ivus muttered.

Although the candle cannot be seen in terms of human good and evil, his dedication and zeal to the way of devotion are unquestionable. The Flame Heavenly Division, the Candle Heavenly Division, the Xi Heavenly Division, and other Heavenly Divisions who dedicate themselves to the path all respect the Celestial Priest, and the Celestial Priest is also very kind to them-

As we all know, Si Zhu is a pillar god with a very serious tendency to protect shorts, and he attaches more importance to his own apostles than to other celestial divisions on the path of dedication, and more to the path of dedication than to other paths.

The same is true for other professions on the path of dedication. Only what you cherish can have the meaning of being dedicated.

A person who does not love his family at all will not be able to complete his spiritual practice by becoming a monk. Giving a gift to someone you don't like is not an act of giving, but at most a waste use – and waste use is an act of balance.

Although Ivas has not yet begun to formally practice higher divine arts...... However, Cardinal Loki's ability to obtain the power of the Candle through the High Divine Technique indicates Cardinal Loki's final plan, which was personally certified as an act of dedication by the Candle.

In this way, Ivus has to examine Cardinal Loki's purpose.

According to Evas's speculation, Cardinal Loki must not have died.

Previously, because Cardinal Loki's words sounded too sincere, and he specifically said that "the last lie hidden in the truth only makes sense", Ivas subconsciously believed Loki's words.

But now looking back......

Which of the things he says are true and which are false?

What is certain is that he stole the Tears of Time and attempted to murder the Holy Maiden - this crime alone is enough to sentence the death penalty, without mentioning Freya. And this should be easy to find.

That is, at least in the eyes of outsiders...... Ivas confronts Cardinal Loki, Cardinal Loki is told the secret of death, so he wants to attack Ivus to kill him, and Ivas fights back to kill Cardinal Loki, this logical chain is complete.

Among those words, the one that Ivus found most unbelievable was the story of the Son of the Moon in the realm of "perfect people".

Others may not know, but Evas happens to know how to change careers - because human beings are the path of transcendence and love, so the perfection of people has to reach the pinnacle, that is, the sixth energy level, on these two paths.

And the words "sucking the blood of the saint can make a perfect man" were said by Vignes this morning.

Loki happened to be talking to himself, and this is exactly what he said.

- Could this be the secret he just overheard, and he doesn't know the secret of perfection?

So Eivus asked Vignes if she was talking nonsense—if she made it up, then everything was right.

Unfortunately, Vignes shook his head.

"There is indeed such a saying," she explains...... Although it is basically spread as a rumor. Because the Son of the Moon has never been born with a 'perfect man', I don't know who came up with this statement. ”

Ivus looked at Cardinal Loki's corpse and fell into deep thought.

Even if Cardinal Loki was able to steal the power of the Moon Child, even if he had many paths as the inheritor of the ancients......

Then the most he can do is to give up the power of the giant to Braim, and cut out love and transcendence into the egg of perfection, leaving only dedication and adaptation - assuming he has the adaptability of the five paths!

That's still a problem.

…… What about his rank?

Adaptability represents how much you might go down that path...... But it still takes a lot of learning and practice to get to each path. For him, adaptation and devotion can be practiced – but love and transcendence cannot be practiced in his capacity, otherwise they will be discovered.

That is, his split alter ego...... If it was a stand-in, it would be impossible to master the power of "perfection".

Because the path of his love and the level of transcendence are necessarily not high.

Don't...... He just simply created a doppelganger for himself as the son of the month, and wanted to let go of the cardinal and be the son of the moon?

…… So why bother?

At that moment, Vignes suddenly turned into a raven and stopped on Ivus's shoulder.

The darkness around them was replaced by the bright morning sunshine once more, and the scarlet anomalous mirrors returned to their original shapes. But the mirror was still shattered, and Cardinal Loki's body was still lying in front of Ehuas, as if it were just an illusion.

"-Ivus!"

Janis rushed in.

She teleported directly into a religious painting in the Eleventh Circle—startled when she jumped out.

Because the entire Eleventh Ring is as if it has been transformed into a demonic realm.

There was a smell of blood everywhere, and there was nothing but darkness. All the mirrors were densely packed with red blood pupils, and each elf was held down by countless shadow hands and kept in place. Only screams, shouts, and screams could be heard, and the entire Eleventh Ring was thrown into chaos.

Janis tried to turn those shadow hands into ink and help her people break free, but she was shocked to find that she couldn't dissolve them.

…… Could it be that this is the power of the sixth energy level?

But the next moment, the things faded like hallucinations. Only the elven priests, with their black handprints emitting cold air, froze in place, their bodies still stiff and unable to move.

So Janis grabbed the paintbrush in her right hand and rushed in without hesitation.

- As soon as I entered the door, I was stunned.

She had thought it was Cardinal Loki's big move outside...... Unexpectedly, it was Aihuas who stood last.

"Well, doesn't that count...... Attack, assassination of cardinals? ”

Janis's footsteps slowly stopped, and he asked with some hesitation, "Do you want me to help you dispose of the corpse?" ”

"I was defending myself, and he had committed a capital crime worthy of capital punishment – I found evidence, so he tried to silence him."

Ivas explained.

"Okay, I trust you."

Janis replied without thinking.

She looked at the crow on Ivus's shoulder, and asked with some hesitation, "Do you want to take her back?" Shall we dispose of the corpse ...... a little? Sorry, I don't really know what to do at this time......"

"It's okay, I'm more professional."

Ivus shook his head and replied smoothly, "Don't move anything—just stay on the spot and wait for pure white to come over." ”

Anyone who kills people often knows that trying to deal with the scene of a murder can make you feel more empty-minded.

Janis sensed Ivus's professionalism and nodded repeatedly.

But she still frowned: "But no matter what...... He was both the head of the controlled fire and the cardinal. There are many elves who have mastered high divine arts and resonated with great beings. But you can only become a cardinal if you resonate with at least one pillar god......

"Cardinals are nervous at the moment, as long as Cardinal Loki is dead, those who are under the control of the fire...... I think there will definitely be a massive chaos in the church in the future.

"Because there are not enough cardinals now, there is really no one more to take over the Eleventh Ring. It is not easy to practice high-level divine arts, and it is even more difficult to get the approval of the pillar god. Without the cardinal, the Central Observatory's systems would not have functioned at all......"

Hearing this, Aihuas raised his eyebrows slightly.

This means ...... Now that Cardinal Loki is dead, the surveillance of the entire Church has been broken by Evas.

If the people of the controlled fire want to do something - on March 3rd, when the papal succession ceremony comes, they will do it.

…… Could this be part of Loki's plan?

The thought crossed Aiwas's mind.

But......

He suddenly asked, "For Cardinals, reaching the fifth level and using high divine skills to resonate with the pillar gods...... Which condition is more important? ”

"I guess it's all important. I don't know, why don't you ask the pure white ...... Wait a minute? ”

Janis replied casually, and then her eyes widened and she realized what Ivus meant: "Do you want to try it, Ivus?" ”

"-Why not try?"

Ivus asked rhetorically.

Although until now, the cardinal has no human ...... But not without foreigners.

Cardinal Loki himself is the best example of this.

If Loki can be a cardinal, then why can't Ihuas?
