Great, I'm surrounded by villains.

Chapter 406 Friends
The guests have left.

The Iron-Blooded Bishop saw the pleased expression on his subordinate's face, which reminded him of something.

He spent a wonderful time with the guests who came from afar. He met the girl who took over Bai Kou's position. He did not expect that the timid girl who followed a group of people back then has now become the independent director of the Life Sciences Department.

Thinking back to the time he drank red leaf tea with Fuling, a smile appeared on the bishop's face involuntarily.

He hadn't enjoyed such a relaxing and leisurely time for many years.

He was not married and had no children, but this long-awaited reunion allowed him to experience the long-lost joy of seeing his children grow up.

His subordinates also seemed genuinely happy for him.

After all, in people's impression, he has always been rigid and unkind. Even many people within the church are afraid of him and dare not look him in the eye.

Most people on the ship had never seen the Bishop smile.

Occasionally, they would hope that the bishop could be like an ordinary old man, chatting and laughing with friends and sharing the anecdotes encountered in life.

The bishop raised the corners of his mouth. The apparently relaxing and happy scene gave him a flash of fear.

His body seemed to react on its own.

Like a programmed puppet.

Invisible threads hooked the corners of his mouth and lifted it up.

But this tremor from the depths of the soul did not last long.

Because the Iron-Blooded Bishop soon realized that there were more important things waiting for him to accomplish - Fuling captured a large number of members of the Wizarding Guild on the ecological ship. In the process of sending the ship holding the members of the Wizarding Guild here, the Witch of Dawn suddenly appeared and seized control of the ship.

The ship controlled by the Wizarding Coven was heading for another star region. He was about to order the fleet to pursue it, but after being reminded by Fuling, he realized that this was clearly a trick of the Wizarding Coven.

Using a small boat to attract the fleet's attention, according to the intelligence they currently have, the Dark Witch has controlled Jean Saintfield and is sneaking on the Saintfield family's ship, heading straight for the church headquarters.

This is a conspiracy against the Church of Embers.

The real target of the Night Witch is the current headquarters of the Church of Ashes.

Everything she did was to make the Church of the Embers feel the pain of having their homeland destroyed.

The Iron-blooded Bishop suddenly saw the broken ruby ​​on his authority, and remembered that this was the moment he heard about his old enemy, the Dark Night Witch. His blood got so hot that the powerful energy of the scorching sun even shattered the gem.

"Return!"

Thinking of this, the Iron-Blooded Bishop immediately made a decision, "The church needs us now!"

....................................

"The fleet of the Church of Embers is returning!"

When the news came, everyone around Fuling cheered.

The reputation of the Church of Embers has always been controversial in the industry, and the one leading the fleet this time is the notorious Iron-Blooded Bishop. Before Fuling set off, everyone on the eco-ship and the space station had prepared for emergency evacuation, because those lunatics might really attempt to bombard the eco-ship.

And now, Director Fuling has lived up to everyone's expectations and persuaded the old stubborn people of the Church of Embers to resolve the dispute in a peaceful way.

"Director, how did you do it?"

Fuling suddenly had many fans, and she was surrounded by people. People cheered Fuling's name, drowning her in praise and making her feel a little confused.

"Uh... treat each other with sincerity?"

Thinking back on what happened to him and Duan Mingyuan on the Judge's main ship, everything went unexpectedly smoothly.

The iron-blooded bishop was not as unkind as rumored. He treated them with the finest snacks and red leaf tea from his hometown, and even made a special trip to thank her for the previous surgery.

At least, this old man is a grateful person.

If the church headquarters hadn't been in big trouble, the bishop would have personally come to the ecological ship as a guest for a friendly visit. "Actually, I think he is quite reasonable."

"As expected of a director, you easily accomplished something that others couldn't do!"

Another round of praise.

They felt that perhaps Fuling was the only person in the universe who could combine the iron-blooded bishop with reasonableness, but this also showed the director's personal charm from the side.

"What? You're not going to the celebration party?"

Heya appeared behind Duan Mingyuan at some point. "In order to celebrate the passage through this crisis, all afternoon meetings have been postponed. The people on the ecological ship are planning a banquet."

"No."

Duan Mingyuan shook his head.

These joys did not belong to him, and the Iron-Blooded Bishop's treasure trove of memories could not satisfy his curiosity.

He is still haunted by the mysterious witch who imprisoned the Bishop during the Battle of the Wizard Star.

Also, what did the Pope see during that divination ceremony?
What made him suddenly change his behavior and regard wizards as the descendants of demons?
"Looks like I have to take a trip."

"Go? Where?"

Heya asked knowingly.

The iron-blooded bishop is actually a good person who is cold on the outside but warm on the inside and reasonable?
Only an idiot or...brainwashed person would believe this.

However, the "Magic Codex of Love" that she wrote when she was bored did seem to have brought a lot of inspiration to Duan Mingyuan. This was a textbook-level application of cognitive change, and even her "teacher" felt ashamed of herself.

She deliberately reminded him, "As far as I know, the Holy City of the Embers Church does not welcome outsiders to visit. Even for members of the church, only the selected ones are qualified to make the pilgrimage."

"This is indeed a problem."

Duan Mingyuan seemed to be thinking about something.

Especially after the Iron-Blooded Bishop brought the news of the Dark Night Witch back to the Holy City, the entire planet might fall into a state of total martial law, and all tourist channels might be forcibly closed at this time.

But fortunately, he made a friend in the Holy City.

"I have to call a friend later and she should be able to get us a visitor's pass."

Duan Mingyuan still remembered that when they said goodbye, Jinli specially invited them to visit the Holy City.

"If there is such a good thing, then I will leave my visitor pass to you."

"you?"

Duan Mingyuan glanced at Heya from the side.

With Heya's knowledge of the Wizards' Council, it would be hard for him not to be regarded as a criminal in the Holy City.

"I had a feeling there was going to be a big mess there, so how could I miss it?"

Heya blinked at her and said, "I provided you with so much information for free. You wouldn't even be willing to do me such a small favor, would you?"

"I'll help you convey it, but whether she's willing to help is another matter."

"She will definitely not agree if you say I am an outsider. How about this, you just say I am one of your crew members."

"crew?"

"How about an archaeologist?"

Heya had already thought of her identity. "Maybe when we get to the Holy City, I can help you translate some 'historical texts'."
