Chapter 299: Peeling the Cocoon (Seeking Monthly Votes)

Aaron felt a slight doubt in his heart, but immediately realized that one of his previous conjectures was correct.

The "Blood Garment Club," "Blood of Decay," and "Desire Spirit Sect" have deep connections; they are likely joining forces to push forward some conspiracy this time!

At this moment, Metana's voice still reached his ears:

"It was too late by the time I discovered something was wrong. After drinking my father's blood and establishing the Contract, I had no way to reveal a single bit of information to the outside world."

"I tried many methods, attempted dangerous Rituals, and sought help from other Extraordinarys, but none of it worked... Even my thinking was gradually changing, becoming unwilling to seek help, unwilling to resolve this matter; my subconscious was gradually accepting it... I was becoming less and less like myself!"

"Until today, after receiving the salvation of my Lord, I finally regained my spiritual freedom!"

"Sun King?"

'No... this is very possible!'

Desire Spirit Sect, God of Suffering, Miracle and Preaching, Magician, Iron Crown!

Aaron, who was preparing to advance to "Furnace," naturally knew that because "Sun" directly originated from that 【Mother Tree of Flesh and Blood】, it could be said to be the source of all Mysterious things, so the Spirituality of "Sun" could be converted into any Spirituality.

This was his primary goal for infiltrating the Sitasu family to investigate!

What exactly did Baron Jacques have that was worth those Secret societies going to such great lengths to plot!

"It was some documents. The 'Blood Garment Club' used the convenience of my father's position to have him take out some historical documents from the founding of Invis, especially the part about the middle-age changes and late-life madness of 'Sun King Arthur'! At the same time, they also required my father to probe His Majesty the King and members of the Royal Family, recording their views on the 'Sun King' and all other information..."

And other Spirituality could also be converted into "Sun"!

'If it is said that the "Sun King" initially received the support of "Dawn," then he might have been a pure "Craftsman"... Then, he betrayed his oath and used the "Sun King's Spear" to stab at "Dawn"—in this process, he must have received the support of other Sui Zhi Xue, otherwise how could a mortal make a Sui Zhi Xue bleed? This is a huge joke!'

After receiving a positive reply, he felt a sudden shock in his heart.

'And now, several societies related to the "Mother of Night" are acting in unison again, with the target being the life story of the Sun King...'

'It really is a terrifying power that violates rules and cognition... For example, the previous "Diffusion Law" wound curse; once it spreads, as long as there is enough time, it wouldn't be difficult to make the people of a city, or even a country, bleed to death, right?'

Aaron found that he was not actually too surprised: "Then what did your father discover?"

After Metana said these things, she was like someone who had just recovered from a major illness; her whole body was devoid of strength.

It could be said that, except for being outmatched in absolute power, in the Mortal World, the performance of an "Immortal" is no different from that of a Sui Zhi Xue!

'Would the high and mighty Sui Zhi Xue of today really allow the birth of an uncontrolled "Immortal"?'

A huge doubt arose in the bottom of Aaron's heart.

'You don't believe it, simply because you don't know enough.'

Metana looked around guiltily, her fair throat bobbing: "According to my father's account... once, King Arthur VI mentioned that the 'Sun King' might have changed his Extraordinary path... but how is this possible?"

Metana shed tears, her expression becoming incomparably pious; if it were the original Solomon, he could probably have coaxed her into bed with just a few words.

"You said, it was your father who gave you the blood?"

"My father has completely indulged in the depraved pleasures of the 'Blood Garment Club,' but occasionally when I look into his eyes, I can still confirm that he is struggling, that he is asking me for help... It's just that these moments are becoming fewer and fewer... He is becoming less and less like himself," Metana said miserably.

Aaron revealed a thoughtful smile: 'Could it be that the one who supported or perhaps bewitched the "Sun King" to betray "Dawn" was the 【Mother Tree of Flesh and Blood】, no, it should be the "Mother of Night"?'

However, at this moment, he temporarily suppressed these divergent thoughts and asked Metana: "The Blood Garment Club controlled your father and spied on Mitra Palace; what exactly do they want?"

For example, Sui Zhi Xue and Hidden Existences, or "Unknown-grade" Strange Objects.

"No, I mean you drank your father's blood, and then you established the Contract?" Aaron asked.

Aaron pressed his temples; the scenes he had experienced since arriving in Plymouth flashed by rapidly.

Being able to respond to Prayer on a large scale, being able to descend with incredible power...

'Is this the "Law" of the "God of Suffering"? Through blood, signing a Contract, impossible to violate; perhaps it can be named the "Blood Covenant Law"... No wonder so many priests were caught, and not one of them opened their mouths.'

Aaron asked.

Of course, this was just a theoretical model.

And in the actual process, at most, when it pollutes a city, it will alarm the highest levels of the kingdom, and then various means will be used to contain it.

The status of the "Law" is very high, and the Contract established by it is something that even an "Immortal" would likely have to pay a certain price to break.

'And in this process, the "Sun King" Arthur's own path also underwent a transformation, changing from "Sun" to "Red"... "Red" is the symbol of reproduction, Vitality, and longing... It is not surprising at all that his personality changed and his desires increased.'

Although the "Law" is powerful, there are things with higher status than it, which can naturally suppress it.

'But the final result was... after that spear, the Son of Dawn died, and the plan for "Dawn" to intervene in the Mortal World on a deeper level failed?'

"It is mainly regarding the Mysterious aspect. When Invis was first founded, it received the support of the Sui Zhi Xue 'Dawn.' He bestowed the glory of industry upon Invis, but later the 'Sun King' violated the agreement, used the spear in his hand to stab at the Sui Zhi Xue, and became stained with the Sui Zhi Xue's blood... Ever since that time, the great Arthur I went from being wise to being muddled and licentious... In his later years, there were even rumors of affairs with his own niece and granddaughter, and in the Royal Family's Secret History, those rumors were all true!"

But Aaron still felt very shocked: 'The "Law" obtained by the Sixth Primordial Substance might not be complete enough yet, but after advancing to "Immortal"... possessing a larger range of response, as well as the power of the "Law" that is far-reaching and more complete... what is the difference between such an Extraordinary and a small-scale Hidden Existence?'

'Changed from "Sun" to "Red"?'

'And... regardless of whether it was the previous church or the current Baron Jacques, it is clear that the one who contracted them was not the "God of Suffering," but just a peripheral believer. This shows that the power of the "Law" can be bestowed upon believers, radiating to others, and infinitely infecting, infinitely proliferating... and even—far-reaching?'

Blood Garment Club, Blood of Decay, Baron Jacques, life story of the "Sun King"!

'And then, the "Desire Spirit Sect" also raided the "Eye of Gumon" sect and snatched away their holy object!'

His eyes suddenly lit up: "Sure enough... is this what they are preparing to do?"
