My dear witch, please turn evil according to the script!

Chapter 359 We Unite! The Advantage Lies With Us!
Kingdom of Platia, Wislova, City of Arlan.

In a city under martial law for a long time due to the war, in the basement of a bar that had long since closed, in an unimaginably spacious underground space, nearly thirty sneaky men wrapped in black cloaks were gathered together.

Just like the outside world's assessment of the Chaos Brotherhood... no, of all cults, these guys really like to operate underground.

Underground in the literal sense.

After all, there aren't many areas on the entire continent that can accommodate the activities of these cult groups.

Even in a federation of nations where constant internal and external troubles lead to lax oversight, any cultist of a certain rank would be unable to operate normally.

The more divine favor these cult members receive, the less human they look.

Some of the unfortunate ones even find it extremely difficult to maintain their human form and sanity.

However, these cult members still enjoy it.

However, in order to avoid revealing their whereabouts and clues, cult members also need a series of activity bases.

Thus, underground bases were created.

Within the Kingdom of Platia alone, there are countless large bases like the one beneath the city of Yalan.

"I never imagined we'd actually be able to get together and discuss cooperation one day."

"It's truly unbelievable... but since it's for the sake of the divine child, cooperating with you lunatics is understandable."

Bishop Clive of Hellfire, accompanied by his men, smiled as he looked at the three bishops before him who belonged to the Council of Absolution and possessed higher-level blessings.

Of course, his fists were clenched tightly.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not angry because I have to communicate with these crazy heretics from the Amnesty Council.

It's because of Roland.

Because of this kid's methods, the magic he relied on for survival has become ineffective. He can no longer hide behind the scenes and control his clones to cause trouble. Instead, he must personally venture into dangerous situations and affairs.

This was completely unacceptable to him, who valued his life immensely.

Even though he brought a total of eight recipients this time, two of them had nine rings and six had eight rings.

But he still felt it wasn't safe enough.

After all, the recipient is a large-scale piece of trash.

However, the supreme Lord's blessing granted them magical power equivalent to that of a ninth-ring expert.

If a real fight broke out, these guys might not be a match for the elite eighth-ring level warriors. They're all show and no substance.

The only use this group can have is to buy time.

However, aside from the three bishops, there is essentially no difference on the other side.

According to intelligence, there should be fifteen recipients... Hmm, why are there only fourteen?
One person died after only a few days of causing trouble?
It seems that the power distribution in the region of Plataea is indeed troublesome.

Even counterfeit Jiuhuan cigarettes are not something that can be resolved by ordinary means.

Although the manufacturing cost is somewhat high, considering the recent increase in the Supreme Lord's attention to this world and the greater amount of power he has bestowed, losing a few of these consumables is not a big loss.

It seems that, just as the intelligence reports, the Demon King's Court has multiple Kings and a large number of Great Demons on the land of the Federation of Nations.

In addition to the personnel from the Papacy and the Society, the troops that the Empire will send, and the combat power of the various federations themselves...

Even if they had four nine-ring legends, if they were exposed, they would be attacked by both humans and demons at the same time, and would undoubtedly be killed.

At this moment, the female bishop who had met Roland before, and whose face had only one eye, spoke up: "Clive, you didn't use a clone this time?"

"Heh, how do you know this isn't a clone?" Clive smiled slightly.

The Chaos Brotherhood is not a friendly organization, and he won't reveal his trump card so easily.

Even though he was strong enough to deal with any bishop in the Amnesty Council, he never used his true form to fight.

His clones are enough to match the level of these guys, let alone his main body.

The female judicial officer stopped the conversation and instead asked, "Let's get straight to the point."

"How can we capture the divine child?"

"Charging directly into Isfar is tantamount to suicide."

“Kefas, Flam, and that Amya, those three are troublesome enough. Not to mention Isfar also has a fully grown dragon at this time.”

"Even if the three of them don't make a move, that adult dragon could easily crush us."

“We need to lure her out, or attack her while she’s out.”

"You heard that sound just now, didn't you? It was a sound that made our souls tremble just by reaching our ears."

"The impeachment agreement has been passed; it seems the next step is for the Empire to send troops."

"The Divine Child might set off with the legion at that time, and we might be able to launch an attack then."

“It’s impossible for Isfar to be left undefended, so the accompanying legion can only have one ninth-ring legend at most. And it’s very likely that it’s the mage, Flam.”

"This is a good opportunity."

Clive laughed and shook his head slightly: "You really are a bunch of madmen who only think about sacrificing themselves for our Lord, you have no brains at all."

"Don't forget, when the Legion goes out, it takes people from the Papacy and the Society with it."

"We don't need to worry too much about the Vatican, but it's hard to say about the Society."

"Besides, who said the empire only needs these strong individuals?"

"If the federations of various countries can use money and titles to buy off a ninth-ring expert, why can't the Empire do the same?"

"Don't underestimate the empire's resources." "I have an idea, would you like to hear it?"

“We can start with the people that the God Child cares about.”

"For example... that newly appointed Grand Duke Roland of the Empire."

Clive looked at the female bishop as he spoke: "You've dealt with him before, haven't you? I can sense his magical aura emanating from you."

"...Excuse my bluntness, but this kid is not easy to deal with," the female bishop said. "Moreover, he has connections with the Demon Clan's royal court."

“That impaler Dracula has already helped him.”

"He also has a powerful bone dragon. Even though it's only a short-term increase in strength, it's not much weaker than me."

"Don't forget, he also has a holy sword."

The female bishop was not satisfied with Clive's proposal.

Capturing Roland alive to use as bait to lure the divine child is not a good idea.

Killing and capturing alive are completely different concepts.

Clive laughed again: "You guys have other goals for this trip, don't you?"

"For example... destroy the prototype of the Demon King's Hand and extract the precious gift of our Lord from it."

"As far as I know, Roland has actually been looking for these prototypes all along."

"It must have been the remnant soul of the Demon King who told Roland about the prototype."

"Don't forget what this demon king did."

"If it weren't for this troublesome fellow repelling one of the Lord's descending demigods, this world would have long been bathed in the Lord's blessings."

"Roland, likely alerted by the Demon King, may want to find and destroy these prototypes before we do."

“Otherwise, he would have no reason to come to Heria at this time.”

"So, we just need to wait, wait for Roland to find the location of the prototype, or we can help provide the location of the prototype."

“The power of my Lord’s grace is something even the Demon King cannot withstand… but this guy is special.”

“He can disregard the blessings of our Lord and even banish him.”

“Even without the factor of the Divine Child, shouldn’t we kill these heretics as soon as possible?”

"To be honest, if it weren't for that good-for-nothing Cassius's incompetence and the internal affairs that Slo needed to handle, this guy would never have been able to get through this period peacefully."

The female bishop did not answer immediately, but turned to look at her colleagues on either side.

Although she was the commander-in-chief of this operation, she still wanted to hear the advice of the other two bishops.

The other two bishops, who were completely cloaked, did not object.

A bishop spoke in a sinister voice: "That old bastard Clive is right. Heretics like this kid must be dealt with as soon as possible."

"Don't forget about Rollsney, this kid wiped out all the divine grace we spread in just over an hour."

"It took us a full half day to set up these things."

"As long as we can kill him, the divine child is of no concern to us."

"Since we have enjoyed the power bestowed upon us by our Lord, we cannot escape our inevitable fate."

"We just need to wait and see. There's plenty of time. There's no need to rush."

The female bishop, known as Lausney, nodded: "Alright, let's proceed according to this plan."

"Prioritize eliminating Roland. If possible, use him as bait to lure the Divine Child."

Clive nodded: "No problem. Let's rest here for a while before we begin the operation."

"Yalan City is now under the control of the Kingdom's army."

"There's no need to worry about the Empire discovering it."

The members of the amnesty council nodded, then turned and left the area.

After they had all left, Clive finally smiled.

Son of God?

That was never my goal.

There was only one thing he had to do from beginning to end!

Kill Roland!
Of course, if this kid could remove the restrictive effects on himself, he might be able to make this damn thing die a quicker death!
Fortunately, we managed to get the latest information about this kid from Rollsney.

This kid has evolved again after only half a month.

It's one thing for someone's strength to increase, but it's not surprising that someone who can experience an explosive increase in strength within two months would increase it again within half a month.

But where did the bone dragon come from?!
Is it really possible for humans to create undead creatures of this caliber using magic and methods?!

And it's not the kind of "bone dragon" pieced together from the bones of a magical beast.

If it could be judged as powerful by Rosne, a figure considered strong even among bishops, then it was destined to be something other than a dragon made from scratch.

It was a true bone dragon.

However, no matter how many tricks Roland has up his sleeve, with four legendary nine-rings and nearly twenty mass-produced nine-rings, surely he can overwhelm you?
The advantage is mine!
