Eileen watched Bronya Peters's retreating figure and said calmly.

"I hope Katerina will like this gift."

Locke decided to go home as soon as possible and take Hannah with him.

……

The Queen's Castle.

The dark clouds and torrential rain that had been hanging overhead lasted only fifteen minutes before completely dissipating.

This made Katerina somewhat uneasy. She wrapped herself in a blanket and quickly went to the underground laboratory, where she found Igor West, a scholar of the alchemy sect.

“Igor, did you feel it just now? That unusual weather.”

"The weather is indeed extremely extreme, and I sense an unusual aura. It seems that there is a demigod-level necromancer in Kosork. Your Majesty, you must be careful."

"Igor West said wistfully."

Necromancer?

Renis, who was following Katerina, remembered the necromancer Locke had mentioned before. Could it be the same person?

"Why necromancers? Can they summon such extreme weather?"

Katerina asked.

"No, Your Majesty, they know nothing about the weather, but a demigod-level necromancer can awaken the weather witch Antonia Madeline Magdalena, who has been dead for hundreds of years, and use Antonia's abilities to create such extreme weather."

Scholar Igor West explained.

"A demigod-level necromancer, Antonia Madeline Magdalena? Are these all my enemies?"

Katerina frowned.

She doesn't like variables.

“Renise, inform the church of this news and have Cardinal Nob Stott find the necromancer hiding in Kosork.”

Katerina gave the order.

"Yes, as you wish."

Renee left with the order, reminding him as she turned to leave.

"Your Majesty, Bronya Peters has not yet returned. Should we send someone to provide support?"

"Shaluna, go check on Bronya and see what's wrong with her."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Renis and Sharuna left the palace together, heading in two different directions.

Locke and several witches were already traveling home in a carriage without stopping.

Fortunately, his crimes have not yet been publicized, and have not yet affected Hannah's work and career.

"Hannah, Angela, we have to get out of here."

Locke had considered that he might run away one day, but that would be after the war started. He never expected that he would be targeted by Katerina before the war even began.

It must be said that Katerina has a very keen eye.

If left unchecked, it could indeed become a hidden danger for Her Majesty the Queen.

"leave?"

The two said in unison.

"Yes, let's go now. You guys go to the reindeer farm and wait for me. I still have some things to take care of."

While Renis was still in the palace and he was still the team leader, Locke planned to bring Dimo ​​out.

Although the Church of Knowledge is a terrifying organization, Katerina is no less so.

Since the Queen has already made up her mind to get rid of him, he has no reason to let her have an easy time.

Let things get chaotic! The more chaotic the better, so that I can take advantage of the situation—no, I mean find a way to survive.

Locke had never intended to confront Katerina directly, but now he had no choice but to.

In terms of current combat strength, Katerina not only has the Black Rose Organization's guard, but also the support of the Cathedral of Life and the high-ranking members of the Alchemy Cult.

On his side, there were only Irene, Bronya Peters, Finney Sares, Antonia Madeline Megadalena, Rebecca who always wanted to become a rogue ninja, and Alice who was still inexperienced.

Therefore, even if the intellectual sect consists of madmen, they must be won over for the time being.

Otherwise, I have absolutely no chance of winning.

Compared to No. 11 in Peggs, the Reindeer Farm on the outskirts of the West End is definitely safer.

There are arrays drawn by Eileen there, and most importantly, it's close to the territory of the necromancer Rosalia Jiménez, so you can call for help in a critical moment.

After giving his instructions to his family, Locke set off for the church.

Unfortunately, I happened to see Renis.

She was also rushing into the church.

Locke could only hide in a corner and wait for Renis to leave.

His keen hearing and sense of smell allowed him to detect Rhaenys's movements.

Renis also sensed the familiar presence. She turned and walked towards the crowd, where believers were either praying or exchanging their thoughts.

To avoid being discovered by Rhaenys, Locke immediately hid inside Lux's long dress.

Lux is a kind nun who had dinner at Locke's house and considered Locke a friend.

So she wasn't angry, but instead chose to help Locke.

"Have you seen Locke?"

Renis looked at Lux.

Lux shook her head. "I'm sorry, Director Renis, is there something you need from him? If I see this, I will pass it on to you. He goes to church to pray every day."

"Yes, when you see him, tell him to hide, preferably well."

Renis glanced at Lux's skirt, then turned and left.

"Okay, I will pass it on."

Lux said with a smile.

Locke breathed a sigh of relief, but he no longer had any intention of releasing Dimo.

With Renis here, there's no way he can get her out.

But meeting once shouldn't be a problem.

"Lux, take me to see Dimple."

"follow me."

Lux was a member of the task force and a nun at the church, so she knew where Dim was being held.

The two entered the underground prison of the Cathedral of Life, where heretics were imprisoned.

Locke met Dimo, and he looked at Lux.

“I want to interrogate him alone, Lux.”

"Okay, I'll wait for you at the door."

Lux said considerately.

Locke gave Lux a grateful look.

Dimo looked at his former colleagues with a bitter smile. "They don't serve alcohol here, which is terrible. They took away all my weird items. Now, the only thing keeping me alive is Angela. How is Angela?"

“She’s a good person. She wants me to get you out of here, but I can’t. Rhaenys is in the church right now.”

Locke simply explained his situation.

A hint of gratitude flashed in Dimo's eyes.

Of course, he didn't know that it was Locke who had reported him.

"Thank you, Locke, for believing in me at a time like this."

"Of course I know that we have always been partners, and we both believe that knowledge can change destiny."

Locke said with a burning gaze.

Dimo was stunned, disbelief flashing in his eyes. "You...you knew all along?"

"Yes, I read my father's diary and learned that we are all believers in the goddess of knowledge and wisdom. My sister Hannah and I share the same faith; we are all children of knowledge."

Locke said in a low voice, having completely won over Dimo's trust.

'It seems he's unaware that he and Hannah are experimental subjects, but Bard has molded him into a devoted follower of knowledge, which is good news for us.'

Thinking this to himself, Dimo ​​said to Locke,

“Angela is a special being. She possesses power you cannot imagine. If you kill me, her power will be unleashed.”

"What? You want me to kill you?"
