Quadruple split.

Chapter 2536

Half an hour later, His Majesty Tychus of the Justice Cult was the first to stand up. He nodded to everyone and strode out of the prayer room. This meeting, which was not long but serious in nature, finally came to an end.

But this is not the end. On the contrary, even though the top leaders of all religious sects have just unanimously decided to adopt a more "conservative" approach, this does not mean that the Holy Church Union intends to swallow its anger. On the contrary, under the attention of the whole world, there was no possibility of compromise among the nine major religious sects from the very beginning.

It is foreseeable that the Holy Church Union will be tough to an unimaginable degree this time.

“But being tough does not mean being strong.”

His Majesty Wilhelm of the Melody Sect sighed and said helplessly, "Family members know their own business. Even though the scope of the 'Sanctuary' is much larger than that of the Silver Wing Alliance, which is known for its vast control area, and the number of believers in our nine sects combined even exceeds the total population of the elves and lizardmen, you should all know that we are not good at fighting."

"That's not the point, Wilhelm."

Alexstar shook his head, then turned and walked towards the door, saying without looking back: "The point is, the Cult of the Abundance has no choice, so..."

Wilhelm frowned and asked, “So what?”

"So the Holy Church Union has no choice."

After leaving these words lightly, the elegant lady disappeared in a dim light.

The old bard with golden curly hair, who looked a little sloppy but had very well-maintained fingers, curled his lips and turned to ask the others, "How true and false do you think the attitudes of Tychus and Alexstar just now were?"

"Unnecessary questions."

Meka Softpins, who keeps a low profile and likes to avoid the world and things, shook his head and said helplessly: "No matter how true it is, we can only accept their reactions. After all, no matter who it is, they will be so radical when their own God's favored one disappears in a war zone."

"And the Black Brahma priest..."

Dorothy shrank her neck and reminded in a low voice: "He is also an important talent of the alliance. We must make sure he is safe. And we must give everyone an explanation to those soldiers in Dumbuya City."

"I'll go back and prepare."

The Pope of the Knowledge Sect, the taciturn old lizard man Saint Ali Verona, stood up and looked around: "I hope you will also hurry up and convey the conclusion just now and take action as soon as possible. If you delay, something unexpected will happen. We don't have time to continue to relax."

"Makes sense."

The Wealth Pope Rivegaz stretched and slid down from his chair weakly. "I'll go back and write a letter to warn those restless juniors of the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce and the Steam Consortium. As for the supplies... As usual, our sect will be responsible for raising them, and all of you will share the bill. Justice, Abundance, and Dawn will be exempt from interest."

After saying this, the Goblin Pope left quickly without asking for anyone's opinion.

Soon after, Pope Ali of the Sect of Knowledge, Pope Wilhelm of the Sect of Melody, Pope Dorothy of the Sect of Mist, and Pope Meka of the Sect of Creation also left one after another.

In the huge prayer room, only two people were left: Saint Anastasus Silverspin of the Cult of the Sun and Saint Ambrose Asher of the Cult of the Dawn.

"..."

Then, after a brief silence, the silver elf, who could barely be considered middle-aged, took a deep breath and said with a serious expression, "It wasn't us."

"I know."

Ambro nodded and said calmly: "I never doubted that it was you who did it."

"It's not just 'us'."

Anastasia frowned and added, "It wasn't done by the 'Minority' gang. I admit that those guys have become increasingly difficult to control in recent years, but if they really planned such a big thing, there's no reason why I wouldn't get the news."

Ambro smiled calmly, with a teasing tone: "It seems that you are very familiar with the behavior of those so-called minorities, old friend."

"Don't treat me like an idiot."

Seeing that Ambro did not seem to be turning his attention to the Sun Cult, Anastas breathed a sigh of relief and said in a much lighter tone than before: "But you should be aware that no sect is absolutely clean, and you should be thankful that in this most insane era of the minority, I am the helmsman of the Sun Cult."

Ambro raised his lips slightly and said leisurely, "Then you should be thankful that I, not Tifilo, have been the helmsman of the Dawn Sect all these years."

"This……"

Although he was older than Ambrose and Tiefero combined, he had only been the pope for less than twenty years. He had never dealt directly with the previous pope of the Dawn Sect, but he was very familiar with the man's methods and tactics. Anastas was silent for a long time before reluctantly admitting, "What you said does make sense, but you should also know that if Luke Tiefero was still the pope of the Dawn Sect, the minority would not be so 'radical'."

"So, you think that the candidate for the Pope of our Dawn Sect will have a greater impact on the minority than the candidate for the Pope of your Sun Sect?"

Ambro looked at Anastas happily, watching with pleasure as the other's face turned from red to blue, and then from blue to black.

Obviously, based on the above conversation, Anastas had no way to refute Ambro's final summary speech, and could only grit his teeth and admit that he was indeed useless.

"Ahem, let's get down to business."

After a while, although he was not as thick-skinned as the Fair Pope, the Sun Pope decided to change the subject. He cleared his throat and said to Ambro seriously, "Is there any news from Pastor Heifan?"

"information?"

Ambro blinked and asked curiously, "What news?"

"Don't be pretentious."

Anastas frowned and said in a deep voice: "You don't still think that the fact that Hei Fan is from another world can be hidden?"

"what?"

Ambro looked at the other person in surprise and asked in confusion: "Did I hide it?"

"you……"

Anastas paused for a moment, then immediately asked, "So, since you admit that Pastor Heifan is from another world, then you should be very clear about what people from other worlds can do, right?"

Ambro nodded first, then shrugged and said, "It's a pity that Pastor Heifan didn't contact us."

"I do not believe."

Anastas expressed his doubts without hesitation, and said in a deep voice: "Don't forget that your new saint is also from another world, and she is also the girlfriend of Pastor Hei Fan. Now that such a big thing has happened, how could it be possible..."

"Do you want to guess--"

Ambro calmly interrupted him and chuckled, "Do Philip Tolan and Avery Davidson have anything that can communicate directly with 'home' across the distance, or even allow them to come back?"

Anastas shook his head and said truthfully: "How would I know such a thing?"

"Then let me put it another way."

Ambro laughed and asked, "When little Zhu Black went to Dumbuya City last time, did you give him something that could be used in extreme situations to ensure that he could escape danger or hold on until reinforcements arrived?" Anastasia: "..."

Obviously, the silence of the Sun Pope is itself a very obvious answer.

"Everyone knows what the God's Favored One means to a sect, but we are the ones who know its significance best."

Ambro leaned back in his chair and sighed, "Even if it was Xia Lian, I would force her to leave the City of Light with a lot of useful things. Even though she could easily crush me with the cross, I still worry about whether she will be in danger."

"But I can see that Tychus and Alexstar are really nervous."

Anastasia took a deep breath and said seriously, "If they knew any news, they would definitely not be like this now."

As a result, Ambro nodded in agreement and said, "I agree. I also think that they have not received any news from the two children."

"Then you still..."

"I think 'no news' itself is a kind of news."

"What do you mean?"

"do not know."

"Do you want to listen to what you are saying."

"Please be patient, old friend. You are a very wise person, but you also have many shortcomings that can offset this wisdom, such as impulsiveness, carelessness, and simplicity."

Ambro waved his hand and said slowly, "I said 'I don't know' because I shouldn't know any news from Pastor Heifan. This doesn't conflict with what I said before."

Anastasia narrowed his eyes slightly and said unhappily, "Can't you change your habit of playing charades?"

"The most realistic thing is that the city of Dunbuya was destroyed by fire, and Heifan, Avery, Philip and countless other soldiers disappeared. Because the city was burned so cleanly, we couldn't even find any complete traces of battle or corpses."

Ambro stood up with some effort, hunched over and slowly walked out of the prayer room: "All we need to do is prepare and respond based on this 'reality'."

Anastas, who was still sitting on the chair, shook his head and said in a deep voice: "It may be nonsense, but I personally cannot understand this kind of thing."

"I know, old friend, of course I know."

Ambro stopped and turned to look at the silver elf he had known for a century. He said with a complicated expression, "Just take this as advice from an old friend. If possible, try to make some changes. Your seemingly smart and stubborn personality, but in fact easy to deceive and coax, is too inconsistent with your current identity."

……

five minutes later

City of Light, Chapel of Justice

With a solemn expression, His Holiness Saint Tychus Folsom briefly greeted the archbishops who came out to greet them, confirmed once again that Avery was not in danger of life, and did not send back any message using the [Orthodox Canon]. Then he sighed and pinched his brows tiredly.

"This kid..."

Tychus spat and cursed angrily, "I shouldn't have let him out. He must have been led astray by other kids!"

Several archbishops and knights looked at each other and finally decided to pretend they didn't hear anything. After all, in most cases, the probability of Avery Davidson leading other people's children astray is much higher than the probability of being led astray by himself. The Son of Fertility who went to Dunbuya City with him and is now also missing is a rare good boy who has been close to Avery in recent years but has not been led astray.

"Alright, alright, what are you all doing here? The result is pretty much what I expected. We have to go, but we have to be subtle."

The old man who was furious during the prayer because everyone decided to be 'subtle' shrugged his shoulders and waved his hand, saying: "Everyone go away first, I'm going to the Blind Sanctuary, and we'll deal with the rest later."

After saying this, the just Pope turned into a dark corridor with great vigor, went down a suspended ladder that appeared from nowhere, and walked deep into the basement of the chapel.

He sighed all the way, but did not show too much annoyance or anger.

He could vaguely guess that Avery's 'disappearance' was not simple, but he also remembered that when he was young, he was not a simple child either.

For example, many years ago, when he was still a young man, he concealed his identity and joined a secret force that specifically supported the Grand Inquisition. He stayed in it for quite a long time and was in danger every day.

It was against the rules, but it was the most important time in Tychus's youth.

So he did not object to Avery's decision to go to Dumbuya City and "see the world" with the Black Fan priest, and even...

When Avery could have used the [Orthodox Canon] to contact the Great Service but received no response, he did not get angry.

As young people, if you are not a little wild and a little extravagant, how can you be called young people?

But he still felt very unhappy and troubled.

After all, the north is too chaotic. If the children act too recklessly, they may really kill themselves.

The initial decision of the meeting just now was to let Grand Knight Madolan of the Cult of Plenty lead the team, with one person each from Justice, Plenty, and Dawn forming the decision-making body, and to put together a high-quality and high-quantity "investigation team" to rush to the North within two days.

Considering Avery's importance to the sect and the fact that this matter might not be simple in many ways, after much hesitation, Tychus finally decided to ask for help from a more troublesome guy.

So, a moment later, he appeared in front of the Blind Sanctuary on the second basement floor of the Chapel of Justice.

Of course, the so-called sanctuary is actually just a storage room that has been used to store wine for centuries.

"Ugh."

After a short sigh, Tychus gently knocked on the small wooden door of the sanctuary, and then walked in as invited after the restriction on the door quietly disappeared.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

The owner of the aqua blue eyes smiled and happily greeted His Holiness the Pope in front of him.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

The old man also laughed, and just as he was about to say something, he was interrupted by the other party anxiously -

"So, is there any news about Kevin?"

"Uh……"

"You promised to help me find Kevin!"

"I know, but..."

"Where's Kevin!!!"

"..."
