"How could a letter from the 【Dragon Feast Sect】 to the Church for the God-Caller end up in the hands of the Witch Council?"

Xia De asked in surprise. Megan manipulated the flames, choosing to burn the blood-stained cotton and bandages directly indoors:

"How did you think the Church would contact the God-Caller? All along, it seems that only we have had a relatively good relationship with him."

Even Duoluoqian, who only had a preliminary understanding of the "Whisper Poetry" matter, could say a few words about this:

"I heard that the Church's judgment on the identity of the 'God-Caller' is very strange. Do they still think you are a woman?"

Regarding Xia De being the "God-Caller," the members of the group who had experienced that night at the Lake View Manor mostly had an idea in their hearts, so the writer had guessed it long ago. Xia De gave two dry laughs and did not mention those even stranger things, such as "merman lineage" or "paranoid psychosis."

"The 【Dragon Feast Sect】 wants to meet me alone... Could it be that Ms. Nadia Folen wants to talk to me?"

"It's possible, but not necessarily." Megan said, while Duoluoqian was puzzled:

"When did they make an appointment to meet you?" "However, I'll go outside and take a look first."

Because of the city-wide lockdown in Cuiluocai City, no newspapers were printed in Larion City tonight. Miss Jia Lin, who was listening to Duoluoqian recount this news at the Larion Hotel, could already imagine how lively tomorrow's morning paper would be. However, because of the assassin's overly obvious framing, this assassination would not involve Intelligence Agency 8 and the Grey Gloves, which was the best news so far.

Because the rain blurred the vision, one could only vaguely see the scaffolding surrounding the blast furnace standing densely. On the scaffolding, there seemed to be passages for walking. Although it was not very clear, only the strange steam era could have such an authentic spectacle with an "industrial bare face."

This rain, which did not know how long it would last, brought more vitality to the spring of 1854. But Miss Jia Lin also knew that this shooting incident was destined to become a symbol of the changes in the pattern of the Old Continent.

It is said that Princess Cuiluocai returned to the City of Glass on the other side of the lake that afternoon under the strict protection of her personal manservant, private doctor, guards, and the Dedehuazi side. As for Duchess Megan, she had to face the serious follow-up problems that broke out after this assassination in Larion City.

Although Miss Jia Lin only heard about this matter and did not participate in this battle, he was certain that the Church would not lose. The only problem at present was whether Jarvis Amagari, the father of the Amagari brothers hidden in the 【Tyranny Club】, could be found and captured by the Church.

While Dedehuazi and Kasen-erke were shaken by the assassination and border conflict, the Five Gods Church did not remain idle either. Although Miss Jia Lin intervened in the afternoon's assassination, this time there were a large number of prophets present. Even if they couldn't divine the identity of the assassin who was shot in the chest, they could know that the 【Tyranny Club】 had used means in it.

This made Miss Jia Lin look at Ajielina with new eyes. She was different from Princess Lei Qianya; although she had been favored by the King before this, she had never handled government affairs. Being able to help Miss Megan appropriately this time was partly due to the training she received during the negotiation conference, and partly because she really had high talent for this.

In the distance of the violent rain scene, a giant wind furnace more than fifty meters high stood at the end of the field of vision.

"I'm encountering such a complicated family relationship for the first time. After all, it's three generations appearing at the same time; just thinking about it, you know how many stories and love-hate relationships are in it. Picking out a small fragment is enough to write a sufficiently confusing mystery. Do you want to go see them?"

Although she successfully killed (official statement) the assassin with the weapon she carried, for a soft princess who had lived in Willendale City for a long time and had never encountered such a tragic event, this still caused her very serious mental trauma.

Miss Jia Lin identified what that spectacle was. Duoluoqian, who had not yet been to the city on the other side of the lake, had already come to the window, wanting to let herself see more clearly:

The pouring rain that started in the afternoon showed no signs of stopping even until that night. Although Cuilu did not leave the Larion Hotel during this period, thanks to Duoluoqian being able to pass on information from Princess Lei Qianya's side at any time, and the witches also passing first-hand information to the hotel at any time, he was also able to obtain first-hand news about the Larion region.

More worth mentioning is that this rapidly approaching rainstorm brought a broken subspace and a Seventh Era sealed evil object about to break free in the southwest of Larion, forcing the Church to dispatch a 13th-Ring Ringed Ringed Shushi to deal with it. At the same time, the Church actually still had sufficient manpower to pursue the 【Tyranny Club】 following the clues provided by the Prophet Association.

Speaking of this, she couldn't help but laugh:

Although he is suspected of being very loyal to the "Ancestors," as long as he is caught by the Church, the Church has plenty of ways to make him open his mouth.

All parties are in action, not just the Church forces and the cultists. There are too many sorcerers Miss Jia Lin does not yet know about, running silently in this rain, just to gain the upper hand in the Battle of the Chosen in Space.

"It's not confirmed yet. This letter is just to test whether the Church can really contact the God-Caller. If I am willing to meet, the Council will return the news to the Church, and the Church will then contact the informant of the 【Dragon Feast Sect】 in the black market... This set is really complicated."

Cuilu closed his eyes and felt it with "High-Efficiency Space Perception":

Miss Cuiluna, as the highest-ranking noble of her country in the Cuiluocai region, spent the entire afternoon dealing with the army, official statements, city martial law, and other matters, and even Princess Lei Qianya couldn't be idle. However, according to Duoluoqian, Ajielina, who was facing such a complex and tricky situation for the first time, actually performed very well.

"It's not an illusion, I saw it too."

"Spatial mutation. Fortunately, it's not that space is completely connected; it's just that the image is projected in Larion City. Correspondingly, there should be a scene of some place in Cuiluocai City appearing in Mikaela Blast Furnace City."

Saying this, Xia De walked out of the room. Miss Jia Lin stood up holding little Mia, and Duoluoqian pointed downstairs:

The cat meowed gently, and Duoluoqian and Xia De both showed smiles:

Seeing Cuilu look at the window in surprise, Duoluoqian also looked outside the window, then walked a few steps toward the window:

"It's not the upper street, it's going to the trash alley behind the kitchen. This rain really came at a bad time. Huh? What is that?"

"That's good, I will send someone to contact the Church immediately. You wait for the news. It's raining so hard outside, and the city is under martial law, so you... don't go out."

"Is that the spectacle of the Nameless Old Continent? Is it a mirage now? Or another link caused by spatial mutation?"

"Martial law is in effect outside."

"Of course, there is no time to lose; it's best to meet immediately."

A cult group like the 【Dragon Feast Sect】, since they dare to let the Church be the middleman directly, presumably it won't be any trap. Moreover, they are only cooperating with Laplace Klein Howard; there is no reason for them to rush up and fight me to the death. What's more, Maria Aicuiluocai also said that Nadia Folen had long been dissatisfied with the 'Ancestors'."

"After Maria Amagari came last night, she stayed on the sofa in Dulute Giles' room, saying she wanted to watch over Last Amagari."

"Yes, go take a look, and by the way, explain the matter of next Saturday in advance."

"Then do you agree to meet with them?"

The blast furnace was cylindrical as a whole, and the bottom, which was blocked by city houses, seemed to be a frustum. The tall and magnificent industrial building and the eye-catching anti-rust red paint color gave a strong visual impact even in the rain.

Although she knew that this hotel had the protection of the witch's secret arts and rituals, and such a situation would not happen at this stage, Duoluoqian still pulled the curtains immediately, leaving the scene of her, Miss Jia Lin, and the cat only inside the small room.

"Oh!"

First are Duchess Megan and Princess Green Lake-t, who were assassinated. Although neither lady was injured in the assassination, both were very seriously frightened. Especially Princess Green Lake-t, this was already the second assassination she had encountered in the Cuiluocai region.

Not only can she help her great-aunt and sister handle and arrange various matters, but she can also soothe and coordinate the emotions of her brothers and sisters very well.

"I hate that kind of thing; having you and Mia by my side is enough."

Cuilu nodded:

"That glass blast furnace in Mikaela Blast Furnace City."

The Kasen-erke side accused the Dedehuazi patrol troops of crossing the border line without authorization and having to open fire after warnings were ineffective; while the De-Cuiluocai side insisted that their own patrol troops had always been acting within the national border, were being accused by Kasen-erke's border troops without cause, and had to open fire in retaliation under the premise that the other side fired first.

Megan said with a smile:

"Who told you that you don't have your own subordinates and forces?"

The large-scale conflict that broke out in the border area also gradually reached the ears of the big shots in Larion City not long after the assassination occurred. The sudden battle lasted for two hours before it paused against the backdrop of the emergency mobilization of the two countries' army troops. The statistics of dead and wounded soldiers during the period had not yet been announced, and the two countries were already accusing each other of being at fault first.

This accident brought more gloom to the already precarious negotiations, and this rainstorm was like the best footnote to the future of the negotiations.

But just as he lifted his steps, he looked at the rainstorm outside the window again:

Not long ago, on the night Green Lake-t encountered the assassination, the Witch Council and the Orthodox Church captured prisoners respectively. The witches' interrogation did not get too many clues, but the Five Gods Church, supported by a huge number of diviners, already had an investigation direction. Combined with the new clues that appeared this afternoon, according to the information Cuilu obtained, the Peace Church finally found the stronghold of the 【Tyranny Club】 in the Larion region, and in the evening, engaged in a head-on battle with the cultists of the 【Tyranny Club】 in the rain.
