The young man in the white robe shook his head. "The parish that went to support the Cloud District is not the same parish as us. Only the main church can contact them."

"It seems the person in charge there is afraid of things getting too big and being punished."

Levins shook his head. "A stupid and cowardly fellow. The more timid and irresponsible he appears, the less trust the cathedral and the apostle can make of him."

He quickly flipped to the last few pages of the document, and a color photograph came into view. He looked at the cute little boy's face in the photo, "A child?"

"The last message from the Cloud District was from their high priest, saying the attacker was 'Novis's youngest son,'"

The young man in the white robe quickly explained,

According to information provided by the main church, this child fell from the artificial hill when he was nine years old and became a vegetable, and has been cared for by his father, No.

Viss was kept alive by a nutrient pod, but a few days ago the church attacked Novis and the nutrient pod fell into the stormy sea.

"The church in the cloud district did not send back any photos of the child, nor are there any photos of him in the church's database. This photo is a possible appearance simulated by data algorithms after collecting the appearances of his parents, and the similarity should be over 85%."

"The relevant data model has been distributed from the main church to the various parishes. The main church suggested that facial images could be collected using smart cameras and then compared with the model."

"A child in a vegetative state,"

Levins looked at the photograph with interest. "Back from the Storm Sea? The specter of vengeance?"

"The main church's speculation is that some kind of hidden force used the child's image and special identity to sow discord between the church and the security alliance."

The young man in the white robe quickly explained.

"That's possible,"

Levins nodded slightly, continuing to flip through the documents in his hand. "So the cathedral sent us this document because they think this gathering of heretics might also be related to the forces behind this child? Those heretics are actually waiting for the forces behind this child?"

"Yes."

The young man in the white robe nodded.

What is the cathedral's opinion on this child?

Levins closed the file, turned his head and asked.

"The cathedral has reported the situation to the Apostolic."

The young man in white robes answered slowly.

"The Patriarch? What was his reply?"

For the first time, Levins's expression turned solemn.

The young man in white paused for a moment, then said, slowly and deliberately, "Kill them without mercy."

-

Under the pitch-black night sky, several SUVs followed one SUV at a distance.

"Lord Bayer, just a few streets ahead is the Dead Tree Bar."

The man in the passenger seat turned around and glanced at Bayer sitting in the back.

"The Dead Tree Bar?"

Bayer's expression changed slightly as he glanced at the SUV about to disappear into the darkness ahead. "Isn't that the Security Association's territory?"

His face immediately lit up with excitement. "This guy really is a traitor! Quick, follow him!"

The convoy of off-road vehicles followed slowly forward. In order to conceal their identities and avoid being discovered, everyone in the convoy had taken off their Eternal Secret Sect robes and changed into civilian clothes.

The SUV in front seemed unaware of the pursuers behind them and continued to slowly drive forward.

Finally, the SUV turned a corner and drove into a street corner.

"That's the direction of the Dead Tree Bar!"

Bayer immediately perked up, "Quick, follow him! I'm going to catch him red-handed, our time to make a name for ourselves has come!"

The SUV sped forward and turned the corner.

The huge neon sign of the Dead Tree Bar had come into view, and the group watched as the SUV parked not far from the bar's entrance.

"Sir, shall we go there immediately?"

The man in the passenger seat turned his head and looked at Bayer.

"Chase···"

Just as Bayer was about to speak, he suddenly paused. The SUV was parked there, but no one got out, and no one seemed to be coming over.

He instinctively felt that something was wrong.

He took a deep breath. "Don't rush, don't rush, he might be waiting for someone."

At the same time, he began to recall what he had seen and heard along the way. His men had fled all the way here and just happened to encounter the SUV carrying Swint nearby. Was this too much of a coincidence?

"Give me the telescope."

He held the pendant in his palm and reached out to the passenger seat.

The co-pilot immediately handed him the binoculars, which he raised, leaned out, and aimed at the SUV.

There was indeed a figure in the back of the SUV that looked very much like Swinter; they had been following them all along, no doubt about it.

Then he raised his binoculars and looked around. The instant he raised the binoculars, he was shocked to discover that in the vicinity of the SUV, there were some people with strange expressions sitting in cars near the bar, scanning their surroundings.

He carefully examined the people's clothing, then paused.

"Sir, is there any situation?"

The man in the passenger seat leaned over.

"Look over there."

Bayer handed over the binoculars, pointing them in the direction of the off-road vehicle.

The man in the passenger seat looked up, then his expression immediately changed. "There are people lying in ambush around here."

The people inside the car tensed up instantly.

"Could it be someone from the church?"

"That's what the thin man next to Bayer said."

"Won't,"

The man in the passenger seat immediately said, "Church members all have special uniforms; this outfit makes them look more like members of the Security Federation."

He then realized what was happening and looked at Bayer, "Sir, it's most likely a trap! Swind deliberately wanted to lure us here and wipe us all out. Thank goodness you were vigilant, sir!!!"

"Could it be that church members carried out the mission on their own?"

The thin man said in a low voice.

"The church rarely assigns multiple missions at the same time, and we're already within their attack range,"

After a brief silence, Bayer shook his head. "Notify all the brothers to retreat immediately."

The man in the passenger seat immediately picked up the car radio: "Trap! Everyone, retreat immediately!"

At the same time, the off-road vehicle began to turn around.

Upon hearing this, the other off-road vehicles immediately began to turn around.

They had already been defeated by the FBI once, and it was only with great difficulty that they managed to organize themselves. Upon hearing this order, they immediately panicked and turned around in a somewhat haphazard manner.

······

At that very moment, the ambushers positioned near the passageway also spotted the retreating vehicles.

"Priest, there's a car trying to escape over there. Could it be reinforcements from the heretics? Have they discovered us?"

One of the people in the crowd shouted.

"Send a car to chase after them, stop them, and see what they're doing,"

Another voice replied from the crowd.

Immediately afterwards, a car started up and chased after the vehicles that had made a U-turn.

······

"Sir, a car is chasing us from behind."

The man in the passenger seat glanced behind him and shouted to Bayer behind him.

"shot,"

Bayer glanced back, his face turning cold. "Open fire immediately! Shoot them hard! Do you have any bombs? Stop that car and buy everyone some time."

If he suffers further losses here, he can forget about making it.

This is the priest.

Someone in the group of off-road vehicles activated a small, self-destructing drone, which flew under the chassis of the pursuing vehicles with a 'whoosh'.

boom--

With a loud explosion, raging flames blew away the pursuing vehicles, sending them flying into the air.

The dazzling flames engulfed the entire street.

In that instant, the vehicles that had been hidden nearby sprang into action and charged without hesitation toward the retreating convoy of off-road vehicles.

"what!!!"

People who had left the bar rushed back in a panic.

The sudden bursts of gunfire sounded like a rapid drumbeat, and the hot bullets poured down like a torrential rain on the streets under the night sky.

At that moment, the SUV carrying 'Svent', which had already stopped, started up along the chaotic street and rushed into a side alley.

Another loud explosion rang out. This time, the people lying in ambush outside the Dead Tree Bar used a self-destructing drone to overturn one of the vehicles in the off-road convoy.

Meanwhile, on the rooftop of a nearby low building, He Ao lay on the edge of the rooftop wall, watching the flames soar into the sky.

Those people from the Eternal Secret Sect are really irritable; how did they start fighting so suddenly?

He had originally planned some ways to promote 'friendship between the two sides,' but now he doesn't need them.

He shook his head.

The people in the church are really emotionally unstable.
