However, when he saw Elena's frighteningly calm eyes, Diogenes, who was furious, suddenly reacted.
This guy, his hands were obviously moving very excitedly and his words were very aggressive, but his deep blue eyes did not show any emotion at all, he was observing everything calmly.
If you only look at the eyes, it is really hard to believe that the person with such eyes is the same person as the guy who is now fighting with all his strength.
This damn guy is trying to trick me!
When Diogenes realized this, he immediately canceled all preparations.
Everything he did was for the arrival of that day, and his true power would be revealed on that day.
Now everything is almost ready, how can we expose it here because of such a small matter?
So, Diogenes was severely beaten by Erina without any resistance. No matter how Erina insulted him, he did not resist at all.
"Whirring whirring."
Looking at Diogenes who was lying not far away, Elena breathed heavily.
To be honest, she herself didn't even know how many punches she had thrown at Diogenes just now. If it were any other demigod, they would have gone crazy and fought back long ago.
But this guy didn't have the slightest intention of taking action and allowed Elena to attack him.
It was not until now that Elena realized how terrifying Diogenes was.
This is a guy who is cruel to others and even crueler to himself.
"I will keep a close eye on the Theocracy Church. I will also monitor all your future activities. If I find any clues, don't blame me!"
While Elena was still thinking of a move, she immediately noticed the spatial fluctuations coming from the palace behind her.
You don't need to look to know that the helpers called by the Pope have arrived.
Elina, who didn't want to expose herself, could only leave after saying some harsh words.
"Haha, are you keeping an eye on the Theocracy? Unfortunately, it won't do anything even if you keep an eye on Tatin every day."
After Elena left, Diogenes slowly got up from the grass.
He didn't seem to care at all about his bruised face and nose. He patted the dirt off his body indifferently and sneered.
Chapter 48: The Doubts of the Demigod
"Diogenes, what happened? How did you get hurt like this?!"
When the other four demigods of the human race arrived, Elina had already disappeared without a trace.
What they could see at the scene, apart from the ruined palace, was the Pope who was beaten black and blue.
"It's okay, I was just attacked by a mysterious person."
Diogenes waved his hand to indicate that there was nothing wrong with him.
But his words made Philip and Oger look ugly.
Even though Diogenes was not the strongest, he was still a real demigod and had been a demigod for a long time. Yet he could be beaten into this state by others.
Then wouldn't it be easy to beat these people up?
For a moment, an inexplicable sense of crisis filled their hearts.
On the other hand, Myron and Duncan looked thoughtful.
"So how are you now? Are you okay? Where is that mysterious man?"
Philip asked aloud. Although his royal power did have many conflicts with the theocratic church at ordinary times, Diogenes was, after all, a demigod of the human race, and it was reasonable for him to show some concern.
And since Diogenes was beaten like this, he had to be even more careful.
"I'm fine. The mysterious man left a long time ago."
Diogenes dusted himself off, shook his head indifferently, and simply cast a brief healing spell to heal all the external injuries on his body.
Although the internal injuries were not so easy to resolve, at least from the outside, he once again became the handsome and majestic Pope.
"Do you know who this person is? Why did he come to you?"
Ogier took a step forward and asked in a deep voice.
Such a powerful figure has set his sights on the Pope of the human race, and they must know who is on the other side.
At least they have to figure out the other party's intentions, otherwise they will be too passive.
"I don't know. I don't know anything about it."
Diogenes' eyes flashed slightly, and then he shook his head helplessly.
"You don't know anything?"
After hearing what Diogenes said, Philip's frown deepened.
This is too ridiculous. Even if this guy doesn't know who the other party is, he should at least know why the other party is looking for him.
It's impossible that someone beat him up for no reason.
This sentence is obviously meant to fool ghosts.
However, since Diogenes didn't want to say it, there was nothing they could do.
"Okay, everyone. This matter is over. I am very grateful for your timely assistance. How about this? It's not easy for us to get together. You can stay in Tatin and have a good meal together."
Seeing that Philip still wanted to get to the bottom of the matter, Diogenes quickly waved his hand, indicating that the topic should end here.
After hearing what the Pope said, Philip and Orge looked at each other. Although they wanted to know the details, since Diogenes had this attitude, they could only let him do as he pleased.
"I appreciate the good intentions of His Holiness the Pope, but Tara still has many things to do, so I won't stay any longer."
After Philip finished speaking, he directly opened the space crack and disappeared.
"Banger City is very busy, so I'll take my leave."
Then Ogel followed suit.
Duncan and Dean Mellen looked at Diogenes meaningfully, then disappeared from the Pope's presence together.
"Ah."
When he saw everyone disappear, a sneer appeared on the Pope's face.
He could guarantee that although these guys said they wanted to leave, none of them would leave Tatin because this matter had obviously aroused their interest.
But it’s better this way. With so many people watching me, the things I do in secret will be more covert.
This bunch of idiots all focus their eyes on what they can see, but they don’t know that the truth is often buried in what cannot be seen.
After looking at the starry sky, the Pope walked back slowly.
······
Just as Diogenes had imagined, Philip and Ogier appeared directly above Tatin after they left.
"So you don't believe this guy's lies either."
After seeing Ogier, Philip said with a smile.
"Don't you believe it, too?"
Ogier's face was indifferent and he said calmly.
"Indeed, everything this guy does is too suspicious. He must be hiding some secret."
Philip nodded.
"Then let's see what tricks this guy is playing."
After Orger finished speaking, he didn't say anything more, but just floated there quietly, his eyes fixed on the palace.
In response, Philip could only shrug his shoulders and move to another place.
After all, Orger's personality is very strange, and I just can't get along with such a person.
Meanwhile, in another part of Tatin, Duncan and Myron had roughly guessed who had come to beat up Diogenes today.
"Why do you think Alina would do this?"
Village chief Duncan was very confused, for he could never remember any conflict between the Theocratic Church, or Diogenes and Elena.
"I'm not sure, but this child has always been very clear about gratitude and resentment, and she is very measured in her actions. This time, she must have discovered something that made her angry, just like before in Tara."
Dean Myron shook his head at Duncan's question, but he stood firmly on Elena's side.
From his understanding of Elina, Elina would never do such a thing if there was no reason.
"Okay, let's go ask when we have time."
Having said this, Village Chief Duncan could only nod and leave Tatin directly.
After Duncan left, Dean Myron also returned to Dunbaron College.
They are two different from those two.
Even if those two disappeared for a month, their subordinates would maintain everything well.
One of them has to guard the border, and the other has to garrison the academy. If they are away for a long time, it will definitely cause a stir.
Although Duncan and Myron were very curious about Diogenes' behavior, there was nothing they could do as the border and the academy could not leave them.
······
As soon as Diogenes' matter was over, Elena immediately followed the information clues collected from the memories of those cardinals and found the place where they made the potion.
This is a laboratory buried deep underground. I don't know if it was because of the news or for some other reason, but this basement is now empty, with only a mess of instruments and various materials and books left.
"Please, there must be one!"
Elina searched the laboratory as quickly as possible.
She prayed secretly in her heart that as long as she could find the recipe for the potion, even just a little bit would be enough.
With the potion formula, even if we have a clue, as long as we have this thing, with the alchemy skills of the Golden Alchemist, we will be able to reverse engineer the antidote.
The death of the high priest made Elina lose the opportunity to get the antidote directly, and now she can only find a way to make it herself.
"It must be there, it must be there!"
Elina's hands were trembling slightly as she searched. When she faced Lilith at the temple level, she didn't feel so panicked.
Now, this thing can be said to be Andre's last hope. If she can't find it, Andre will be in real danger.
Actually, it’s not really true to say that Alina has any deep feelings for this second student.
Compared to Leah, Andre is more like a passerby.
After all, he was originally intended to be used as a tool.
However, since Margaret left, Elena has paid more attention to everyone around her, and she doesn't want the tragedy to happen again.
What kind of teacher is he if he can't even save his own students?!
"found it!"
Finally, whether it was the goddess of luck or the fact that these guys left in a hurry, she found a copy of the formula in a pile of unburned ruins.
Although one third of this copy has been burned, fortunately, most of what has disappeared is blank, and only a small number of material names have disappeared.
But it doesn't matter. As long as they have the recipe, even if it is incomplete, she believes that the Golden Alchemist will be able to find a way to create an antidote.
While making the antidote, she would use the power of the law to suppress the mysterious power in Andre's body.
"call."
Elina breathed a sigh of relief and then disappeared right where she was.
The first thing she had to do now was to develop the antidote as soon as possible. As for those who had already turned into monsters, Elena really could not help them, and she didn't know whether the antidote would be effective for individuals who had already mutated.
But no matter what, creating an antidote comes first.
······
"boom."
Just as everyone was taking care of the unconscious Andre, the wooden door was violently pushed open.
I saw Alina standing outside, panting.
In order to come back as quickly as possible, she did not move through the space crack, but directly teleported.
