The accident in the Pure Water Square caused the Holy Blood Sect, which was about to set foot on the highest level of religious circles on Anling Island, to fall to the bottom completely.

Even though the Governor's Mansion ordered that no news against the Holy Blood Sect should be spread, tens of thousands of witnesses still spread the word about what happened throughout Anrei Island in a very short period of time.

The ensuing consequence was that the credibility of the Holy Blood Sect had completely collapsed, and everyone was waiting for the Holy Blood Sect's explanation.

However, until tonight, the doors of the Holy Blood Sect's Cathedral showed no sign of opening.

In the spacious, but not delicate study, the old Pope buried himself in the piles of ancient scrolls on his desk, as if searching for something, and this process had lasted for a day and a night, and his half-length hair hung down at the sides of his shoulders, hiding the paranoid, crazy face underneath.

Several years of hard work were ruined, and the remnants of the ancient gods that he had spent a huge price to find were destroyed, and the foundation of his comeback was shattered.

He couldn't accept this failure...... It's not because his hard work is ruined, but he doesn't have more than ten years to spare!

"Your Majesty, the hunters in the sect are in an abnormal mood, and they want to ...... with you Tell you, we have temporarily controlled them through the officials sent by the Governor's Palace, but the situation is getting worse. ”

A middle-aged man in a white clerical uniform stood at his desk, trying not to upset the Pope as much as he could.

"Also, Governor Zheng wants you to see him as soon as possible, he wants to know what our next plan is, I think you should go and meet him, after all, we can maintain stability now depends on Governor Zheng's trust. ”

"What do you want me to say when I meet him?"

The old pope suddenly raised his head, and his red eyes stared at the priest,

"Do you tell him that the weird and the remnants of the old gods have been destroyed and that we have completely failed, or do you tell him that we have been lying to him, and that our rituals have no effect of immortality at all?"

"No, His Majesty, I mean ......"

"Shut up, you don't know Zheng Yuan at all, that's a guy who is extremely eager for life, as long as we don't take the initiative to pierce it, then he will never withdraw his assistance to us before completely tearing his face, and as long as I can solve the problem, then Zheng Yuan will only become a response worm that takes and asks again!"

Without giving his deputy a chance to speak the whole sentence, the old pope yelled hysterically,

"Get out at once now, I'm not in the mood to listen to those meaningless trifles!"

The reprimanded priest hurriedly bowed out of the room, but the old Pope waited for him to leave, but stopped what he was doing and looked down at the mahogany chair beneath him, its right armrest, to be exact.

Bang!

The front end of the armrest was smashed directly with one palm, and two fingers were caught in a scroll from it, and the old Pope looked at the parchment yellowed by age, and his hands trembled a little at this moment.

Pushing aside all kinds of ancient books, putting the parchment paper in the middle and spreading it out, there were several long sentences with clear paragraphs on it, rubbing them with his palm, the old man suddenly said in a deep voice,

"Your Majesty, for more than ten years, in order to realize your vision, I have ...... In the end, the plan fails because of a betrayal hunter and a man he has never met...... If your will is still on me, please show me how to proceed. ”

He does not accept failure, but he has to admit that he has no way out, and even wants to use this means to help him think about how to do the next action.

With his hands crossed on his forehead, the Holy Blood Sect's pope prayed for the first time in years.

Not for the Holy Angel, but for a certain existence in his heart.

In the quiet room, there was a "swish~" sound from the night breeze blowing through the branches outside the window, and the old man suddenly leaned back and fell on the bench, his face full of frustration.

He didn't feel the other party's response, let alone guidance, which made him feel very lost, and he could only murmur in a low voice,

"I have betrayed your trust......"

"No, you lived up to it, in fact you did a good job of completing the whole plan. ”

In the shadows of the corners, a voice came out.

"Who?"

The old man stood up suddenly, his suspicious gaze fell to the corner where the voice came from, with his strength, even in an uncertain situation, his perception of the surroundings was still extremely keen, and he didn't even notice any signs of invasion just now!

"Albert, I haven't seen you for more than ten years, and you're still like this......"

A man paced out of the shadows, blonde hair, and the contours of his face were not outstanding, except for the eyes, which were infected with blood.

"How do you know me...... Who are you?"

The old man's name is naturally not the Pope, but everyone has habitually called him His Majesty the Pope over the years, which makes very few people know their real name.

Not to mention the people who dare to call this name directly.

But the other party's appearance looked like a young man in his early twenties, but he said "I haven't seen him for more than ten years".

"Who was the person who asked you to come to Anreh Island back then?"

In between speaking, the young man's shadow on the ground gradually distorted, and finally changed into another image.

At this time, Albert was already stunned, staring at the old man in front of him who had appeared in his dreams countless times in the past ten years.

"Teach...... His Majesty?"

The figure gradually weakened, and the old man's face was full of disbelief, and he said a title that he was familiar with, and stumbled and said,

"You, you didn't ...... more than ten years ago"

"The purge order of the alliance navy, two admirals, five vice admirals, twelve giant-class warships, and an encirclement formed by 30,000 navies, this treatment, if I don't die, which of you can leave?"

The young man approached the desk, and Albert immediately got up to get out of the way, and the former also sat in without hesitation, and said with a chuckle.

"But they ......"

Albert was still a little confused.

"I know what you're going to say, Strange Thing No. 197, the Box of Truth, can see through people's innermost thoughts, no one can lie in front of it, so I must die extremely completely, the destruction of my body is not enough, my consciousness cannot be preserved!"

The young man raised his hand and tapped his temple,

"However, as I have said, the things of the Ember Age are not federated objects, they are also man-made objects, and human beings are inherently flawed, and the things they make are naturally imperfect. ”

"It is a great honor for you to be able to come back, Your Majesty, and to be willing to meet me, a loser who has failed to fulfill your wishes. ”

"Failed...... Didn't I just say that you didn't fail, and not only that, but you completed all the tasks I left you, otherwise I wouldn't be able to appear in front of you and say these things to you now. ”

For Albert's confession, the young man smiled and shook his head.

"The weirdness you left me and the remnants of the old gods have been ......"

"They're meant to die, those low-level creatures are never qualified to be eternal creatures, and I left them to you so that one day in the future, they can complete the step I have already designed, and help me recover those memories that were sealed at the same time as my consciousness was sealed. ”

Those beings who were extremely revered by the Holy Blood Sect didn't seem to be worth mentioning in his eyes, and when he raised his hand, a dark golden liquid sphere appeared in his palm,

"It's the most valuable thing they've left behind, Gorman...... Gorman, when I first saw him on Anling Island, I felt that there was some kind of force pushing me to get to know him, but I didn't expect that the only child who succeeded back then was him!"

"Raymond told me that the boy died at sea...... He deceived me, now that you know his whereabouts...... Do you need to get him back?"

Albert suddenly realized, and then asked tentatively.

"No, Gorman has more important things to do, and he has an extremely tough guy by his side, you should have fought against him, he is no worse than you now, and there are a few crew members of unknown strength, and now that the past has only made things worse. ”

The young man got up from his chair again and walked to the door.

"I'm coming to you today, not for anything else, just to help you finish everything here, those flesh and blood, it's ripe, it's time to harvest. ”

"At your service, Your Majesty!"

Albert bent down and said with great respect.
