Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 1171 You don’t want your sister...

"Investigation report on the secret base of the 'Rose School' at the border of the Ancient Forest and Northern Orit State...

"A total of 106 'Original Moon' believers in this stronghold had already died when the assault team entered the castle, and their bodies were suspended from the ceiling of the castle hall by an invisible force. There was no change until the 'Mandate of Punishment' burned the human skin castle...

"Because of the belief in the 'bound god' and the 'primordial moon' involved, the Punisher did not conduct in-depth divination, but based on the traces at the scene, it can be determined that these believers had entered a special state of being at the mercy of others before they died.

"Conclusion: A high-sequence Beyonder who is hostile to the Rose School broke into the castle alone and killed all the followers of the evil god. Based on previous intelligence, it is speculated that he is Gehrman Sparrow, who has disappeared recently. He had a grudge against the Blood Admiral Senior and killed him in a battle. It is very likely that he will continue to retaliate against the Rose School...

"Attention, all action teams. If you encounter any of the following situations, immediately inform your angels through prayer and do not express hostility without authorization: slow thinking, stiff joints, abnormal behavior of teammates..."

Placing the file transferred from the Church of Storms to the Church of Night on the table, Angel looked at Antigonus who was sitting quietly across the table and frowned.

The latter's young face and half-white long hair were hidden under the hood. His eyes were dark and deep, containing a sense of vicissitudes that did not match his appearance. He glanced at the contents of the file and said:
"I did it."

Of course I know it was you who did it. Klein was digesting the last bit of potion while preparing his own secret doll town. Zaratul has disappeared somewhere. You are probably the only "miracle master" or even "ancient scholar" still alive. A "trickster" cannot control such a big scene... Angel muttered, pointing to the last paragraph of the investigation report and said:
"Your strange behavior has made the other church teams a little nervous. In the past two days, I have received five false alarms. They all thought they had encountered 'German Sparrow'."

Because of Antigonus's special identity, the Church of Evernight did not inform the extraordinary people of other churches of his existence. On the surface, only the "Shadow of the Goddess" and "Angel of Disaster" Angel came to the Southern Continent, while the "Miracle Worker" in front of him hid in the dark, clearing the stronghold of the "Rose School" while looking for the traces of the hedonistic angels who believed in the "Mother Tree of Desire" and the "Original Moon".

"In short, be careful of the impact when you wipe out those cultists!"

Seeing that Antigonus didn't care, Angel placed his hands on the table to increase his momentum and continued to add.

She wanted to say something like "You wouldn't want your sister to be treated like this or that, would you?", but her spiritual awareness stopped her from thinking that.

However, seeing Angel's serious expression and formal tone, Antigonus shrank back under his cloak and nodded.

"Got it. Next time I'll use your historical projection to fight, and give you all the credit."

That's not what I meant... Angel suddenly felt that it was difficult to communicate with this old antique from the Fourth Epoch, but then he thought that this method was not bad. At least it would not let Gehrman continue to take the blame. So he nodded and changed the subject:

"Have you found any trace of those angels?"

Hearing that he would no longer pursue his bad habit of hanging up his enemies' bodies, Antigonus's short black-haired face emerged from under his cloak again and shook his head.
"In the past half month, I destroyed five similar strongholds, communicated with two saints and more than a dozen 'Original Moon' believers. In addition to involving more believers, I only got the names of a few high-level members of the Rose School.

"In addition to the 'Divine Evil' Sua, there are also two angels, the 'King of Curses' Barranca and the 'Hand of Evil' Urkima, who are relatively active. Other saints include Mahamus and Jax...

"But their whereabouts are unknown. They seem to have known that the True God Church would launch such a crackdown. They stopped appearing long before the war ended, and only occasionally responded to prayers."

This was consistent with the information Angel had received from the "temperance" Renette Tinicole, and she nodded, not surprised.

With the gifts of foreign gods such as the "Fallen Mother Goddess" and the "Mother Tree of Desire", and the "Bound God", the king of angels, who interferes with divination and prophecy and provides shelter, the demigods of the "Rose School" are not so easy to find. Even if the angels are not afraid of the corresponding pollution, the divination results are often vague or even wrong.

If they did not rely on divination and directly attacked the discovered strongholds, they could only capture some low-level believers. If Antigonus had not hidden in the dark and used the "fortune teller's" anti-divination method to launch a surprise attack, they would not even be able to capture the two saints.

This passive response caused a large number of official extraordinary people to be mobilized, which was like a heavy punch to the Orthodox Church of the Southern Continent, but it was like hitting cotton, with no place to use the power.

Fortunately, Angel has a backup plan.

"In that case, I plan to join forces with the Rose School's 'Temperance Faction' that was expelled from the southern continent to set up a bait to lure out an 'Indulgence Faction' angel and kill or severely injure him. This will not only make subsequent operations smoother, but also may help us find more clues about other angels, and even directly lure in the 'Divine Evil' Sua, solving the problem we are facing in one fell swoop."

Angel told Antigonus about his cooperation with Reinette Tinicole, and then continued to ask:

"Are you currently just a 'Miracle Master', or can you use other means to unleash the power of a Sequence 1?"

She didn’t believe that Antigonus, the former “Angel King” and half-fool, was now just a simple Sequence 2.

Hearing this, Antigonus smiled slightly, wrinkled the black wolf hair on his cheeks, and replied:
"I am indeed only a 'Miracle Master' now, but you and that thief only stole one pure 'Secret Servant' attribute from me, so I still have two Sequence 2 attributes, which I have already fully digested. My control over the corresponding abilities is stronger than that of ordinary angels."

The thief... is he referring to Klein? He used the aggregation effect of Sefirah Castle to absorb only the portion of the Secret Servant that did not contain the lower sequence characteristics... Angel nodded in understanding, and was about to defend Klein and his "righteous two-on-one" when the "victim" in front of him continued, "But I don't blame you. This saved me from a crazy fate and gave me a chance to save my sister. And for Him, it is a better choice to only accommodate that portion of the Secret Servant, which can avoid the influence of the existence that previously controlled Sefirah Castle."

"Tianzun?"

Angel asked as if to confirm.

Antigonus smiled again and said:
"Yes, I think you should know that I was born with the trait of a 'miracle worker'. That was the result of my father, Fregra, trying to expel the excess traits from my body.

"This made me born with a certain will of the 'Tianzun'. It was not until I established the 'Night Country', gained some anchors, and possessed humanity that I gradually achieved a balance in the process of fighting against this power."

Therefore, if Klein also takes on this "Miracle Worker" trait, it might increase the difficulty for him to fight against the spiritual imprint of "Tianzun"... The ancient god Fregra has been confirmed to be an ancient god of the "dark" path. At the same time, because there is no guidance from the "blasphemous slate" in the chaotic era, it also takes in many characteristics of other paths. Therefore, this Angel King, "half fool", is also given by drinking the potion... Angel tried her best to keep her expression calm, pretending to be a lady, and even put on the iconic smile of a "witch".

This made Antigonus secretly look away, and after a moment of silence he continued:

"In addition, when necessary, I can pull out my self from the mist of history, who has become a 'Secret Servant' but has not yet accepted uniqueness. That will allow me to temporarily possess the power of Sequence 1. As for the other historical projections, some may use this to allow their true selves to descend, some will not agree, and some may have been contaminated."

The one who let the real body come down, couldn't it be Amon... They are all nobles of the Tudor Empire of the Fourth Epoch... Could it be that the one who was contaminated was Mr. "Gate", Bethel Abraham? Angel guessed and asked:

"Where is Tudor? When we stole... took away your Beyonder characteristics, you summoned His historical projection."

"You should be able to see that it was just an illusion. It was an illusion I created with the cooperation of Alistair so that He could use it as a substitute when He was doing something that was inconvenient for others to know."

As if he had thought of something funny, Antigonus raised the corners of his mouth slightly and replied.

What else did the "Blood Emperor" Tudor have to hide? He couldn't be having a tryst with the "Original Witch" Chike... The history of the Fourth Epoch in Angel's mind became more and more confusing. He also confirmed that the "Miracle Master" in front of him could indeed exert the combat power of a Sequence 1, and he had a firmer confidence in the next bait plan.

Backlund South District, Harvest Church.

Emlyn White led several vampires who were about to be baptized into the church prayer hall. He asked those vampires to take their seats first, and then he went to the reading room at the back and met the burly Father Utravsky.

Next to him stood a man with curly black hair, deep eye sockets, and the features of Feynapotter.

"This is His Excellency Archbishop Loreto who came from Feynaport City."

Utravsky introduced to Emlyn.

"Good afternoon, Master Loreto." Emlyn spread his legs slightly, raised his hands high, and performed the etiquette of the Church of the Earth.

Loreto, who was wearing a bishop's robe, did the same, and then said loudly:
"Mr. Emlyn, I came to Backlund at the request of the Holy See to inform you that you will become the senior deacon of the church in charge of vampire affairs from today on."

Emlyn was stunned, feeling half happy and half surprised. He also felt that it was natural for him to take on this position as the "savior of the blood clan", so he nodded subconsciously.

Loreto then continued:

"Also, I want to tell you in person the things that need to be paid attention to within the church. This is very important."

----

At three o'clock in the afternoon, as crimson rays of light flashed, all members of the Tarot Club once again arrived at the palace above the gray fog and sat down at the long bronze table.

Until this moment, "Moon" Emlyn still felt his head buzzing and found it difficult to digest the "important matters" mentioned by Loreto.
