The red moon returns

Chapter 354 Kill everyone
"Gentlemen, these are the photos of the scene. Please review them."

In the conference hall of the Lie Sun Church, there was a long table. Lynch and Miss Valente sat side by side at one end, while Harlan, the district bishop of the Lie Sun Church, was sitting with a group of bishops at the other end. The two sides faced each other far away, with clear boundaries and air. Zhongdu seemed to be full of pressure.

Miss Valente is here today to question her about the attack on her library. You may give me an explanation or an explanation. Although the matter is not serious, it is of a bad nature. The authority of the great nobles cannot be offended. If you even If you can’t even give an explanation, let’s just see who has more energy.

This world is not a monotheistic religion. Sometimes even nobles can judge. There are many churches here to check each other, but the divine power still has to compromise with the imperial power in secular matters.

But Lynch was still worried.

Among the four major churches in the Kingdom of Rand, the Church of Night is the most close to the people and has the most believers. The Church of Misery is filled with the Holy Mother's heart. It is not a false Virgin bitch, but a real Virgin. If something goes wrong, they will risk their lives. The Church of Wealth is sought after by the emerging industrial, commercial and financial industries, but has always maintained neutrality between mortal parties, while the Church of the Sun...

They are a group of lunatics who uphold what they believe to be justice. They are not much different from the holy warriors that Lynch saw in his previous life. They said, "Holy light, this evil is worth fighting." All parties jointly taught him a lesson, so Miss Valente didn't have to worry about the impact at all when she came to question him.

Lynch can only say that such people's courage and persistence are admirable, but their behavior and thinking are a piece of shit. He doesn't want Miss Valente to suffer, and he also has something to talk to the Bishop of Harlan, so he takes the initiative Followed.

Because Miss Valente sent a formal note to the Burning Sun Church yesterday, not only in the name of the Earl family, but also as a soul-changer of the Suffering Church. This forced the church's district bishop Harlan to formally receive the two visiting people.

As Lynch expected, the atmosphere was tense from the start.

The two of them spoke in perfect agreement, and the venue fell into silence. Several bishops pursed their lips tightly and stared at the photo with gloomy eyes, but no one spoke to argue.

The two looked at each other and smiled, not admitting that it was too normal. So since they are soul-shifters and they are both religious people, let's use religious people's methods to solve the problem. Let's just talk about the gods.

Miss Valente took over the conversation: "What you are doing is tantamount to the clergy publicly preaching content that is contrary to the doctrine and forcibly blurring the divine authority controlled by the Lord of the Burning Sun. I should not need to remind you that obscuring the divine authority means something to the gods. What, once it expands, even the faith of the Lord of the Burning Sun will become impure, in case the Lord’s divine power is cut off and split..."

"Oh, actually you already have your guesses, but you just don't want us to know." Lynch narrowed his eyes and showed a standard villain smile, "But I'm sorry, Miss Valente has also consulted professionals. She is proficient in flames and burning power. The Master of Craftsmen, the Soul-Changer, and the Lord of Sky and Thunder, Simon, who are proficient in the power of lightning and light, have the same conclusion as you. There is only one power that can be thought of that can cause the results in the photo. "

Miss Valente on the side continued calmly: "Scorching Sun, the main divine authority of Sur, the Lord of the Scorching Sun."

Lin Qi said slowly: "So, do you want to forcefully deny that this is the effect of the scorching sun?"

Lynch pointed out the doubts one by one in the photos. The faces of the bishops present became increasingly ugly. Several of them exchanged quick glances from time to time, with some weird expressions on their faces.

"Look at these destroyed furniture again. Pay attention to these pictures. Did you notice that these furniture were not destroyed from the outside in, nor from the inside out? They were burned evenly into chars by the high temperature, both inside and outside. And it is done instantly, so fast that their own weight does not even have time to crush them, and they have already turned into ashes. This not only excludes the power of fire, but also the power of light and heat, because The effects of these powers are either from the outside in, or from the inside out, and it is impossible for the inside and outside to be burned to the same extent.”

"The problem can be seen from the situation at the crime scene." Lynch appeared on the scene at this time, flipping the photos one by one in front of everyone, "please see, the walls and roof are not blackened, which means that the scene was not affected by Do you agree that it is burning with open flames?”

These are photos of the incident.

Miss Valente opened the briefcase, took out a thick stack of black and white photos and distributed them.

District Bishop Harlan was calm, but the bishops denied this and said that they had no involvement and refused to admit it.

Because both of them told the truth, straight to the core.

Obscuring divine authority is a taboo for any church.

The reason why the main god can become the main god is because they have one main divine right. The main divine right is exclusive to the main god and will never be shared with any other gods. Once the divine right is blurred, the main divine right may be divided and part of it will be taken away by other gods. , then the gods who have lost their divine power will fall on the spot and never have a chance to recover. Therefore, divine authority cannot be obscured at all, otherwise it would be blasphemy. You can talk nonsense about other things, but once it involves divine authority, especially the Lord’s divine authority, you cannot shirk it.

Finally, Lynch looked around at the silent bishops: "So, gentlemen, if you deny it, are you preparing to obscure the divine power, or are you saying that besides the Church of the Burning Sun, there are others who have mastered the power of the Burning Sun?"

The silence continued, but this time it didn't last long. The Bishop of Harlem, who didn't have a hair, finally spoke: "Indeed."

"Huh?" This answer was beyond their understanding.

Harlan waved his hand, and several bishops quietly withdrew, leaving only three people sitting across from each other in the conference room: "Servants of suffering, patrons of the red moon, you should understand that it is impossible for the church to secretly attack noble houses. Even we cannot do such stupid things, otherwise it will break the tacit understanding between the sacred and the secular. "

Lynch lit his pipe and allowed himself to think more intently.

"Actually, this is a situation that exists in every church, and we are also in a dilemma."

"A traitor?" asked Miss Valente.

"Yes, after betraying the church, the gods will no longer protect him and support him in the future, and it is impossible to take back the power he already has." Haran sighed and explained, "There are also apostates in the Church of the Burning Sun, and they have realized sovereignty. The betrayal of capable believers is the greatest shame of the church, so we have always kept the secret strictly. If you hadn't told me this time... I wouldn't have revealed it."

Lynch immediately asked: "So you already know who did it?"

"Yes, there is only one person who has understood the power of the blazing sun and can do such a thing, Raymond Kane, power level 5." Harlan explained, "Strictly speaking, he is not apostate, he is just His behavior was too radical and he was expelled from the church.”

Lynch and Miss Valente looked at each other again, both feeling helpless. If what the other party said was not an excuse, then the responsibility would be much smaller. At least the Church of the Burning Sun cannot be entirely blamed. It seems that the blame for blowing up the house will fall on Raymond. body.

"Do you know where he is now?" Lynch asked, "Also, do you know the purpose of what he did?"

"Before he left the church, he once mentioned to several friends that he needed to stop a huge plan. No matter how many people died as a result, he would not give up."

Huge plan? Lin Qi felt the hairs on his back stand up, and immediately thought of the League of Shadows. He asked calmly, "What's the plan? How to stop it?"

"I don't know the plan, but he has never changed the method of stopping it." Harlan said with a wry smile, "As long as everyone who is related to the plan is killed, the plan will not be realized."

Hiss, Lin Qi's face turned gloomy instantly.

He realized that the method of blowing up those photos that day was so violent that if he had gone in earlier, he would have been killed. Perhaps that was the other party's purpose. It was not the room that he wanted to blow up, but Lynch himself.

So why didn't he continue? Is it because the first part has been completed and there is no point in trying to kill me anymore? But there is a second step in the plan. The first key figure in the second step is Howard, who should be dead. So who is the second key figure, and who is going to die?

Lynch immediately realized that there was a person who should have died like Howard in the past two days, but was saved by him before he could die.

Princess Sofia.

"Let's go to the Governor's Mansion early." Lynch stood up suddenly and said solemnly, "If Her Highness Sophia is the second target, then the murderer controlled by the Shadow Alliance may not give up so easily and will continue to target her. She took action, and that Raymond is probably also eyeing the second target. We must tell Baron Bolvar about this as soon as possible and go to the Duke's Palace."
