"This is the mercy of the great and eternal light, the only possibility for us to escape the suffering in life. The eternal kingdom of God, flowing with red wine and honey, awaits us ahead."

"And all we need is devout faith!"

The man in the white robe raised his hands high and shouted somewhat frantically, "Let the great eternal light see your piety, praise the great eternal light!"

"Praise be to the great, eternal light!"

Among the crowd, some fanatical believers raised their hands high.

Immediately afterwards, people began to raise their hands, shouting, "Praise be to the great, eternal light!"

As more and more people raised their hands, the entire church was enveloped in a frenzied and noisy atmosphere, and even those who were hesitant raised their hands high.

At the last moment, Lena also raised her hands.

At that moment, she noticed that the elderly man behind her was among the last group to raise his hand, just like her.

"Very well, the great eternal light will see our devotion!"

The man in the white robe slowly lowered his hands and began to turn to the next page of the classic text.

The noisy crowd around them quieted down again.

Just then, several figures dressed in white robes emerged from behind the door.

They glanced at the man in white robes on the platform, nodded slightly to him, and then quickly scanned the figures sitting in the church, row by row, along both sides of the church wall.

People immersed in the noisy atmosphere rarely noticed these figures.

Lena, however, was not among them; she spotted them almost the moment they entered.

Clearly, these people are here to 'find her'.

Most of them are D-rank, but it's possible they brought items that could unleash C-rank power.

Lena mentally assessed the strength of the white-robed man who had entered.

These people in white robes made no attempt to conceal their presence, so she was able to roughly gauge their strength.

While assessing the opponent's strength, she was also mentally calculating her own remaining strength and how she should proceed to safely take He Ao away from here.

While she was pondering in her heart, her gaze remained fixed on the podium, just like that of other devout believers.

Just then, a white-robed man who was searching the vicinity of her sniffed as if he had smelled something, and quickly walked over.

Is this guy a dog?

Lena cursed inwardly.

At the same time, she took a deep breath and prepared for battle.

boom--

Just then, a slight sound came from behind Lena, and a plastic bag fell from the sleeve of the old man sitting behind her and rolled to the ground.

The sound was so soft that almost no one around heard it.

"what?"

But the white-robed man who had come over rushed forward and quickly pried open the plastic bag on the ground with a thin sword.

Clumps of flesh, still stained with blood, leaked from the old man's plastic bag.

A strong smell of blood spread instantly.

"The rat meat I just bought,"

The old man lowered his head, carefully gathering the meat on the ground, then looked up awkwardly at the figure in white robes. "Would you like to try some?"

"They are all brothers and sisters within the church,"

The man in the white robe glanced at the plastic badge on the old man's chest and began to help gather the pieces of meat on the ground. As he did so, he asked, "Old man, have you seen anyone suspicious around here?"

As he spoke, he naturally glanced around.

"No, they're all residents from the neighborhood."

The old man shook his head.

"Are these two also included?"

The white-robed man's gaze fell on Lena, who seemed to be listening to a lecture, and the little boy who was resting his head on Lena's lap.

“That’s my distant grandniece, and my little grandnephew. They’ve only been here for a couple of days.”

The old man followed the white-robed man's gaze and said cautiously, "Are you looking for them? They are both unfortunate children, but they are also devout believers and would never dare to do anything bad."

"Since they are your relatives, then there's nothing to worry about."

The figure in white robes glanced at the woman's back and slowly stood up.

I wrote a little too much, so it's a bit late.

Chapter 812 The Guidance to the Eternal Divine Kingdom (Super Long Chapter, Requesting Monthly Tickets)

After standing up, the man in white robes glanced around, finally settling his gaze on Lena. He then slowly walked out of the crowd, moving forward along the wall. He deliberately paused next to Lena's row, scanning the profiles of everyone in that row.

At that moment, Lena also gripped the black dagger hidden in her sleeve.

The white-robed man's gaze lingered for a moment on Lena's dirty, pious face before continuing forward, walking around the entire wall, and then exiting from the other side, heading towards the church entrance.

The old man squatting on the ground gathered up the surrounding flesh and blood, wrapped it in a tattered bag, and tied it together.

Meanwhile, Lena, who was sitting in front, seemed to only then realize that something had happened behind her. She immediately turned around to come over, but was stopped by the old man waving his hand.

Then the old man put away the bag, sat up straight again, and looked at the man in white robes on the podium.

Everything happened silently. Most people's eyes were still on the white-robed man on the podium, and only a few noticed that some people seemed to have passed by.

At this moment, several figures in white robes had returned to the church entrance.

"what's the situation?"

The leader in white robes looked at the white-robed man who had just gone to the area where the old man was.

He had taken in all of the white-robed man's actions.

"There's a faint smell of blood over there, but it seems to be coming from a bunch of rat meat that an old man brought,"

The man in white robes spoke slowly, his gaze fixed on the depths of the church. "However, I noticed someone who resembles the target. She has mud on her face, so I can't be sure, and there's a child with her. According to our previous intelligence, the target is alone. Besides that..."

He paused for a moment, then said, "The old man with the rat meat seemed to be willing to vouch for her; he was a priest wearing a badge."

“The badged priests are all respected figures among the local believers; if handled improperly, they could easily incite a riot among the believers,”

The leader nodded, glancing at the white-robed man still 'preaching' on the platform. "You did the right thing. This area is a key area of ​​concern for the church. We can't bear the responsibility for disrupting the preaching of Eternal Light, and we'll also offend these preachers."

"Then what do we do...?"

The man in white asked in a low voice.

"Are you sure that person is the target?"

The leader looked at the man in white.

“Her back view does resemble the target, but her face is not clean, which does not match the target’s identity, and her expression is like that of a true believer.”

The man in white said in a low voice.

"Even the most audacious target wouldn't want to hide in a church, would they?"

Another man in white robes whispered, "These preachers are quite powerful. Aren't they just walking into a trap by hiding here?"

"If she really is a believer,"

A man in a white robe in the corner interjected, "Arresting a believer associated with a badge priest in full view of everyone during a sermon would disrupt the proceedings and could potentially cause some unnecessary trouble..."

The white-robed man who had spoken first lowered his head and remained silent.

The leader looked up, glanced at the woman's retreating figure in the distance, seemingly deep in thought. After a moment, he looked down again.

To the first white-robed man to speak,

"You stay here and monitor the target. Wait until the sermon is over and all the believers have left before you carefully verify that person's identity. I will leave a message for the preachers in this church and ask them to help you."

"Yes!"

The man in white nodded.

"The preachers in this church are far superior to those in regular churches,"

The leader glanced again at the white-robed man preaching on the platform, "If they want to come up with the idea that the most dangerous place is the safest place, they will truly realize the power of the eternal light and the Church."

He looked again at the white-robed man who was going to stay, "When the time comes, you should follow their lead, and remember not to have any conflicts with them."

"Yes!"

The man in white nodded again.

The leader then led the other men in white robes away from the church.

Lena, who had been cautiously watching from the side, breathed a long sigh of relief as the white-robed figures left.

These white-robed figures spoke in extremely low voices, and even from such a distance, coupled with the interference of the white-robed man 'preaching' on the platform, Lena couldn't clearly hear what they were saying.

However, judging from the situation of the white-robed man who remained, they were probably still not at ease with this place and deliberately left someone to guard it.

If it's just one person, the breakthrough will be much easier.

Lena mentally assessed the situation, then calmed herself down and waited for her injuries to heal.

The sermon continued, and the man in the white robe on the platform spoke passionately about many things.

During this process, Lena also cautiously glanced at the old man sitting not far behind her, who seemed to be immersed in 'preaching'.

The old man never turned his head to look in this direction; it seemed that his previous actions were all normal behavior.

However, Lena overheard the conversation between the old man and the man in the white robe, and she knew very well that the old man had covered for her.

She just didn't quite understand why the old man was helping her.

“That’s Grandpa Klin, he knows me, cough.”

As if knowing what she was thinking, a weak voice rang in her ear.

She paused for a moment, then felt a surge of joy and turned to look.
