Necromancers are frantically stationing troops in the apocalypse.

Chapter 1014: The Temple is Not Safe
The carriage shook violently on the cobblestone road, and the wheels rolled over potholes, making dull clattering sounds.

Liz was thrown forward and supported by the priest. She leaned weakly against the wall of the carriage, her face as pale as paper.

Edmund's holy robe shone coldly in the dim carriage. His eyes were fixed on the other side, his gaze sharp as a knife. "Last night - nothing really happened?"

Liz's fingers unconsciously tugged at the hem of her skirt, and there were still wet marks from incontinence on the fabric.

She raised her head slowly, her messy hair stuck to her forehead, but her eyes were unexpectedly calm. "Holy See...if there really was a problem, would you not notice it?"

Edmund's pupils shrank slightly. This timid believer suddenly became calm.

It seemed as if he was facing calmly what was going to happen next.

"What did you dream about?" Edmund leaned forward, with the hem of his robe falling to his knees.

Liz looked at the passing scenery outside the window and whispered, "I dreamed... of going to a port. The lights were bright and people on the street were smiling."

"anything else?"

“There were also many bards chanting poems loudly, and the road was very lively.” Liz lowered her head, her body swaying with the carriage, and recalled softly with her head lowered.

Talked for a while.

Liz suddenly coughed, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of her mouth.

He looked down at the blood on his palm and said, "Your Excellency, how long do I have left to live?"

Edmund was silent. "Enough for you to see His Holiness the Pope."

There was a brief silence in the carriage.

Just when Edmund wanted to continue speaking.

The carriage suddenly stopped, and the wheels made a harsh sound on the stone road. Then the voice of the accompanying knight was heard, "Your Holiness, the people from the association are blocking the road. Deacon Xavier is leading the team."

Edmund said solemnly, "Tell them that the Holy See is carrying out its mission and ask them to make way."

The knight left, then walked back again, "Your Holiness, they said they want Miss Liz to come with them."

Edmund's eyes narrowed. He didn't expect that the local association would accurately come up with the name 'Leeds'.

Was what happened last night done by the association?

As soon as this thought arose, it was dispelled...

If the association were to take charge of this matter, it would never take this approach and would definitely follow the normal process.

In particular, the 'Hadarayi' chaired association, while pursuing results, also values ​​procedural justice.

Edmund opened the door and walked down. The moment he opened the door, the sunlight just reflected Liz's bloodless face.

She huddled in a corner, firmly restrained by two priests.

On the roofs on both sides of the road, various trained animals were also looking down, scanning the team and carriages with their eyes.

"Is there something the association needs?" Edmund took a step forward to block his view, and the divine robe on his body made the curious residents around him salute him in unison.

It suddenly became shorter.

The local deacon Xavier, who was born into the elf tribe, strode forward, saluted and said, "Holy Lord Edmund, may I ask if Miss Liz is in the carriage? The association has something that requires her cooperation."

"Deacon Xavier may have come to the wrong place. You should go to her residence and ask." Edmund said.

Xavier smiled awkwardly, "Then please let us check the carriage."

"Arrogant!" Edmund's roar echoed in the narrow alley, and the swords of the Vatican knights were unsheathed.

On the association's side, although the team members gripped the hilts of their swords tightly, they were reluctant to draw their swords.

In the city of the Holy Temple, even the children selling flowers at the corner of the alley are believers.

If a conflict occurs, they may not even be able to find the bodies.

Edmund said coldly, "Get out of the way now, or you know the consequences."

Deacon Xavier stepped forward, his face calm, "Your Excellency, the leader has ordered that you do not embarrass us."

To be able to stay in the church as a deacon, he must be capable and courageous.

I am also sure that under the current situation, the other party will not really take action.

The team members at the back were wiping their sweat.

"The leader's order?" Edmund narrowed his eyes.

Xavier took out a piece of paper and opened it. "We are also following orders. Maybe the headquarters is holding a leaders' meeting. Do you want to consider it?"

Edmund's eyes fell on the 'order', a blank piece of paper with only the leader's seal in the corner.

"Blank? Are you kidding me?"

"After I finished reading, the words disappeared." Xavier said, "Your Excellency, let's both take a step back. I will take the person away and you will take care of her. Without clear orders, we will not interrogate Miss Liz alone. What do you think?"

Edmund looked at him and the paper several times, and seeing that more and more people were around, he said, "Take Liz and Xavier to the association to rest."

"Yes!"

Liz was helped off the carriage and handed over to the association.

When everyone saw Liz, their eyes widened. She had actually become like this.

Before leaving, Edmund reminded, "Liz, have a good rest, we will pick you up later."

Liz bowed slightly, like cargo being brought to the association's carriage.

Leave slowly.

Edmund stood there, staring at the carriage, his expression changing.

……

Temple, meeting room.

The Illuminating Stone swayed under the dome, and three heroes sat around a round table.

"Saeidu's fate... ends here." The Pope's voice was like a sigh. "The Holy See has done its best. The Father will bear witness to our loyalty."

As things have developed to this point, Saidu still has not managed to survive.

This means that this is his fate and he can't blame anyone else.

Edmund stared at the table, pondered for a moment, and said, "Now that I think about it, that leader mark should be Wu Heng's."

Another hero frowned and said, "You mean, he can kill Saidu in the temple?"

At this point, a chill instantly ran down the spines of the three of them.

If Wu Heng could stop Saidu from reincarnating without anyone noticing, could he also kill them?

If it were any other hero, there might still be many concerns.

But if it was Wu Heng, the three believed that he would really dare to do it.

Silence fell in the room.

After a long while, the Pope slowly stood up, holding the scepter in his hand, and said: "Tomorrow, I will personally ask the Father to give me the right direction."

Being a pope has become a high-risk profession.

As soon as he took this position, he became unsafe in the temple.

"Yes!" The other two nodded.

……

An hour ago.

The queen returned to the island owner's mansion and woke Wu Heng from his sleep.

Sitting in the study in her nightgown, with Glenda, Benny and Xiaoxiao beside her, they all listened to the Empress telling them what happened in the church tonight.

After listening to everything, Wu Heng said, "So, there really is Sai Yidu in the tumor."

The Vatican's resurrection of Sayidu was also the result of their piecing together of intelligence.

Yesterday, it was indeed verified that their speculation was completely correct.

"Now, that bad guy is dead!" Xiaoxiao said.

The queen nodded, "He came out of the strange object, his level is not high, and he has no strength to fight back."

"This bad guy should have died long ago." Xiaoxiao said angrily.

Penny also said, "If the association hadn't stopped us, we should have killed him at sea."

"There was no other way. We couldn't really fight the association at that time." Glenda continued, "It would be better if we could kill him to avoid any problems in the future."

Several ghosts discussed for a few words. The Queen continued to look at Wu Heng, "Is there any way to save the pregnant woman? She is involved in the strange objects. Even if the Church does not vent its anger on her, it is very likely that she will be killed to keep the secret."

In the Vatican's entire plan, the pregnant woman was just a pawn.

In the end, he will die from the side effects of the strange object.

Now that something has been overlooked, it is basically certain that the outcome will not change much.

Wu Heng thought for a moment and said, "The only place I can think of that can interfere with the Holy Church is the local association."

"There's not enough time to go through the association," said the queen.

Xiao Xiao interrupted, "Write a letter to the butler over there! Don't we have the Pirate King's fountain pen?"

The queen looked at me with a puzzled look.

Wu Heng said: "We have a rare item that can be used to write letters and send them to the target remotely. It is not a steel plate, but a quill pen."

"Then let's try writing a letter to her! Whether it will succeed depends on her own fate." said the empress.

Wu Heng nodded and said, "I'll call Lilith. I need to know the other person's name and appearance."

"Okay! You can succeed if you try!"

Wu Heng didn't say much and picked up his phone to call Lilith. The call was quickly connected and Lilith's face appeared on the screen. "Any results?"

"Got it! It is indeed Saidu who is using the magic object to revive his body." Wu Heng said, and then repeated the details.

Of course, he only told this story and did not mention how to enter the temple or the matter of the Empress.

When An Jing finished listening, Lilith's eyes changed slightly.

It sounds easy to say.

But in the temple, the previous religious leader was killed. Even just hearing about it made people nervous and their hearts beat violently.

This is really bold.

And, he really succeeded.

Saidu probably never thought that he would die in the temple.

After a long while, Lilith said with some regret, "No one would have thought that Saidu's final fate would be like this."

Wu Heng did not respond to this, but said: "Their plan has been ruined, and the pregnant woman they used before may be implicated. I want the local association to protect her first."

Lilith understood what he meant, and it was consistent with her understanding of Wu Heng.

"Protecting people in the temple?"

"Well, is there any way?" Wu Heng asked first.

Lilith thought for a moment and said, "I can tell Hadarai about this and ask him to use the radio to contact the Holy Temple and ask them to hand over the person."

"At that time, this pregnant woman will simply disappear." Wu Heng said.

"Yes! I thought so too."

Wu Heng continued, "Do you know the name of the local deacon and his general appearance?"

"I know!" Lilith looked puzzled, "Do you have a solution?"

"I have a rare item in my hand that can help me contact the other party," Wu Heng said.

"Okay, his name is Xavier, and he's an elf..." Lilith described the information she knew.

After all is said.

Wu Heng continued, "I'm going to do some work first, and I'll talk to you later."

"Give the phone to Xiaoxiao, I'll chat with her for a while." Lilith said.

The little possessed doll picked up the phone and walked aside, "Sister, I'm here."

Wu Hengze walked to the desk, took out the [Amorous Quill] letter, and then recalled the information and appearance of the local deacon in his mind.

The next second, the letter in his hand disappeared.

"It's done!" Wu Heng continued, "We have done everything we can. Even if we haven't saved the other person, we have done our best."

"I know." The queen nodded. "After I devoured Saidu, I saw some scattered memories. Do you want to see them?"

"Let's take a look." Wu Heng nodded.

He still had many things he was curious about the Vatican.

The empress entered the body, and the next second countless scattered memory scenes were shared.

Young Saidu knelt on one knee on the gorgeous carpet of the Vatican Temple. The Pope placed his sword on his shoulder. The sunlight shone through the stained glass windows, casting colorful spots on his armor, as if he was being crowned by God.

Then, the scene changed. In a border town, Saidu was holding a torch, with pagans tied to the stake behind him, and the priest was reading out the crimes of these pagans.

Then, scattered images flashed by one after another.

Appearing in a bright hall, Saidu turned into a ghost, and on the podium was the new Pope.

"We will help you revive your body, just stay in the temple."

Saidu showed gratitude, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

At this time, all memory fragments disappear.

Wu Heng frowned slightly.

None of the ones I wanted to see appeared.

He was mainly curious about two things.

One is whether gods really exist and what kind of power they can exert.

The second is the secret of heroes, how the Holy See replenishes heroes quickly.

If it wasn't for bad luck, it's possible that these contents were encrypted by magic.

Just like the people from the Secret Order, when they interrogate a corpse, once they ask for the list of members of the Secret Order, the head of the corpse will explode.

It is possible that the Vatican also has such restrictions.

After watching the scene, Wu Heng released the Empress.

"Is there any important information?" asked the queen.

"No one is interested. Next time, capture two people from the Holy Temple and interrogate the corpses." Wu Heng said.

The queen curled her lips, "This is going to be a long wait!"

Wu Heng didn't say anything, but opened the panel and looked at Faith.

【Faith: 4717/50000.】

The speed of faith is increasing.

It won’t be long before we can face the Vatican directly.

……

The sky lights up.

The skeletons in the courtyard have begun to get busy, adding various materials into the tall furnace.

"Let's go! Let's prepare to strengthen our bones first." Wu Heng stood up and took the Empress out of the study.

In the separate room on the first floor, copy the rune on your body.

Then he walked to the courtyard, where the flames from the furnace shot up into the sky.

……

Sanctuary, temple!
The Pope knelt before the huge statue with his forehead pressed to the ground.

Suddenly, the Pope looked up as if he had sensed something, and on the shelf in front of the statue, golden words began to appear on the unfolded parchment.

"On the day of courage, in the Kingdom of Yeko, heretics appeared."

The words appeared quickly and then gradually disappeared.

The Pope silently said something in his heart, then knelt down again to thank God the Father for his instructions.

Then the Pope slowly stood up and strode out with the scepter in his hand.

"Send the two Holy Sees over here."

"Yes."
