Chapter 291: The Incident
At Saint Samuel Cathedral, one of the thirteen Archbishops of the Evernight Church and the person in charge of the Backlund suburbs, Saint Anthony Stevenson, also received the urgent telegram sent by Earl Hall.
"Your Excellency Archbishop, the 'Sword of the Goddess' has already led the Red Glove squad and departed for the Royal Family banquet."
Daly Simone, who was already a Sequence 5 'Gatekeeper' of the 'Death' Pathway, said.
"..." Saint Anthony seemed not to notice, his gaze drifting—an inconceivable thing for a Sequence 3 'Fear Bishop'.
Half a minute later, this Archbishop finally came to his senses and said to Daly, "Now, send a telegram each to the Cathedral and Bishop Chumen. As for the content..."
"... just write that an evil sect is causing chaos, seriously endangering the safety of Backlund."
Saint Anthony frowned deeply; this telegram made him feel a palpitation, and he trusted his spiritual intuition.
"This..." Daly's pupils constricted. It took her a second to recover, and she bowed her head in agreement before walking quickly toward the back of the Chanis Gate.
The telegram invented by Roselle was already advanced enough; the telegram was delivered to Ningjing Jiaotang and Chumen's estate at the fastest speed.
"Ah, it's this." Chumen shook his head slightly. The location where this ritual was being held was simply too close to his estate; how could he not sense it?
However, Fabuti had truly become enlightened this time; having obtained the altar of the 'Blood Emperor' from the Witch Sect, that thing was simply perfect for dealing with the seal of the Abyss.
Besides that, the most suitable ones would be the 'Red Priest' or 'Door', these two True Gods themselves.
If there were no interference from someone of his extraordinary caliber, the probability of Him escaping was as high as ninety-eight percent!
This calculation had even taken into account the possibility of the Evernight Goddess descending and the Lord of Storms going berserk.
After all, there were also two True God-level existences behind this sacrificial ritual.
"How do you plan to handle it?" A faint, indistinct figure suddenly manifested beside Chumen, sitting on the soft sofa.
This Hidden Angel had rushed over from Ningjing Jiaotang.
"No rush." Chumen poured a cup of coffee for Amanises.
"Do you intend to let Fabuti escape? What benefit is there in that?" Amanises was not in a hurry either, so she picked up the coffee to enjoy it slowly.
She knew everything, but did not care too much. This Dream Angel cared more about the lives of ordinary people than she did, and since he was here, that bloody ritual of Fabuti's could not possibly succeed.
"He won't be able to escape. It just so happens that this time, I will beat Him into a state of self-seclusion so He won't dare to harbor such thoughts again."
Chumen chuckled. Fabuti having such thoughts was merely because the 'Mother Tree of Desire' on the other side was too powerful, making Him afraid to resist.
But if He were made to realize that he was even more troublesome than the other side, His thoughts might change. Perhaps He would truly become a 'good devil' guarding the frontier?
Amanises set down the coffee cup, added two sugar cubes to it, and then looked at Chumen. "What about Cheek?"
Chumen's expression also became somewhat subtle. "I still haven't been able to find Her; I even suspect She has already gone to the Western Continent."
On Earth, the only thing that could escape his line of sight was that Grey Fog.
He was currently equivalent to a Creator of the Third Epoch, and he was also unable to cause much influence on that Grey Fog. If he were to do it by force, not to mention the result, Earth would certainly be destroyed.
The 'Mysteries' was indeed treacherous enough; back in the Fourth Epoch, He had already planted this massive bomb for Chumen that could explode at any time.
"The Western Continent..." Amanises was also silent; that was indeed a place that could not be reached.
"As for the 'Mysteries' side, I already have a countermeasure."
Chumen revealed a wide smile, which made Amanises's eyes look slightly strange. "Then I shall wait and see."
Klein saw Crestet Sesima, and this newly promoted 'Nightwatcher' naturally also saw him, Leonard, and the others.
His expression did not change at all; he merely watched Mr. A peacefully and nodded slightly.
This was agreeing to join forces with the Aurora Order.
"Let's go in together." Crestet said, and then he led the Red Gloves of the Evernight Church to force their way into the Royal Family banquet!
"Do you know why the Loen Royal Family does not believe in the Evernight Church, which has the strongest power in the Loen Kingdom?" Beckett asked quietly beside Klein.
"What?" Klein naturally thought of things like "checks and balances" and "the art of being an emperor."
"Because they are afraid!" Beckett sneered.
"Starting from two thousand years ago, this land where Loen is located has been the territory of the Evernight Church."
"On this land, whether it was the initial Solomon Empire or the later Trensost Empire that relied on the Evernight Church to build the nation, neither could escape the influence of the Evernight Church!"
Klein was also clear about this period of history; it was said that when the Trensost Empire was first established, it was propped up by the Evernight Church.
"So from the moment the Loen Kingdom was founded, the Augustus Family set an ancestral instruction to believe in the Storm Church, wanting to weaken the influence of the Evernight Church, but as for the result, hehe."
Beckett was considered the number two person in charge of the Aurora Order in Backlund, and the secrets he grasped could be said to be quite numerous.
"We have acted so many times and caused such a big commotion; have you ever seen the Punishers of the Storm Church?" Beckett asked a soul-searching question.
That... really hadn't! Klein recalled, and it was truly too miserable.
"The Evernight Church is arresting a wanted criminal; unrelated personnel, stand back!"
A Red Glove gave a light shout, and those guards stationed outside the Wangshi Zhuangyuan were suddenly at a loss.
Most of them were believers of the Evernight Church, and in front of the Evernight Church, they really couldn't muster the courage to resist.
"This is a banquet held by the King!" A gentleman with a stern face walked out from the estate with an unkind tone, but his expression changed after seeing Crestet.
He was a Royal Family security advisor and naturally recognized this 'Sword of the Goddess'.
'Sword of the Goddess'—people with such titles were also very rare in the Evernight Church. A similar one was the person in charge of the Evernight Church in the Southern Continent, the 'Eye of the Goddess', who was a 'Fear Bishop'.
"We have received news that a wanted person from an evil sect has snuck into the banquet, posing a huge threat to the princes and nobles participating in the banquet; they must be eliminated!"
Although Crestet was explaining, his tone was very firm, leaving no room for negotiation.
And this gentleman responsible for the Royal Family's security changed his expression slightly upon hearing this.
His status within the Royal Family was actually not low; he knew that today the Royal Family might secretly reach a reconciliation with a former enemy.
"We are going in!" Crestet led the Red Gloves and walked inside, completely disregarding the face of this Royal Family advisor.
"Truly overbearing!" Klein watched from the side at the Royal Family advisor, whose face had turned as black as the bottom of a pot but who dared not utter a sound, and clicked his tongue in wonder.
