high altitude.
The tall man in black held down his top hat and looked down at the white-robed priest on the lawn with deep eyes.
A dark card kept spinning above his shoulder.
The two men looked at each other from a distance, but Father Martin could not see him at all.
This is the terrifying hidden power of the hidden bookmark.
It completely obscured Chen Lun's existence.
Even a veteran demigod in the solar system couldn't detect any trace.
'Martin Gustave...'
Chen Lun murmured the name in his heart.
When he was still weak, he had heard the name of the former Pope of the Church of the Sun more than once.
The B-level weird things on hand - Fireworks in the Palm and the B-level weird things - Hope Workshop were both created by Martin. They were her works when she was young, but she abandoned them because of her personal dissatisfaction.
Martin had every reason to be proud, because she was once hailed as the most creative genius in the empire, and after becoming a saint, she was given the honorific title of "Light of the Empire".
The Cat God always had a disdainful expression when talking about the current Pope of the Church of the Sun, Diphni, but he was particularly admiring of Martin Gustave.
There is also the replica of Jiaoyang in Wonderland. She also addresses Uncle Martin with great respect.
It can be seen that this Pope is indeed not a simple person.
Now Martin reappeared after missing for many years and happened to be met by Chen Lun. I don’t know if it was "fate"... After all, Chen Lun was holding two creations from her youth and a hammer of the Church of the Sun.
A hint of surprise flashed in Chen Lun's eyes.
'She has a lot of experience...'
Martin not only possesses the BOSS panel, but also his basic attributes of strength, endurance, and faith have exceeded the demigod threshold of 650 points, reaching an astonishing 700 points. He also possesses two blessings from his fierce father and many solar god spells.
Even if you look at the entire demigod group, this is quite explosive.
This former Pope is definitely one of the most capable ones.
Chen Lun also noticed that although Martin looked like an ordinary clergyman, this was not a deliberate disguise, but more like her original appearance. Her every move revealed friendliness and compassion.
She would rescue ordinary people passing by, transfer the pollution in their bodies to herself, and then consume it.
These people don't look like the Sun Church members that Chen Lun has in mind.
Take Terrence for example. Although this archbishop is not particularly evil, she is definitely an unkind person in high positions. She would never do something like helping ordinary people.
"Because you are too righteous, you are incompatible with the Sun Church?"
For some reason, Chen Lun came up with such an absurd idea.
Then he smiled again.
Chen Lun did not intend to contact him, because no matter whether the other party was the kind of person he guessed, it would not be a good thing for him.
and…
'Martin seems to know something about the recent massive pollution outbreak.'
Chen Lun narrowed his eyes.
From the scene of the fossil city he overlooked, one out of ten people was contaminated. By peeping into the fate of these people, it can be seen that this kind of pollution seems to make people lose control and turn into Didak insects, and there is a certain probability that they will be promoted to become extraordinary people in the solar system...
But no matter what, it is inseparable from the Fierce Father or the Dark Father.
At the same time, it is very similar to Prince Dazlet's "Seed of Light" plan.
'But what about the source of pollution?'
Chen Lun was a little confused.
He took out a poker and threw it away.
Crash!
Fifty-four cards drifted in the wind, and were inexplicably rolled up and flew back to Chen Lun. Three of the cards stopped side by side, marking the direction they were to be guided.
Chen Lun turned his head and looked in the direction indicated by the divination.
There, was the location of the Fossil City Sun Church.
Under the bright sunshine, the tall "Daytime Obelisk" stands inside the church area, like a sword guarding the empire, pointing straight to the sky...

Kingdom of Byron.
St Byron's College, Port of Enlightenment.
"Sister Lucy, we're leaving first."
In the Sapphire Restaurant, Ahsoka looked shy as she waved goodbye to Lucy behind the bar. Accompanying her were two handsome guys, Felice Anno and Raphael.
"Okay, be safe on the road."
Lucy smiled sweetly and waved goodbye to her friends.
Ding Dong...
The glass door of the restaurant slowly closed.
Lucy withdrew her gaze and continued to wipe the coffee cup in her hand.
Today Raphael came to have dinner with his good friend Felice Anno, so he arranged for them to be held here, and also invited Ahsoka to join them.
In fact, Lucy is not short of money now.
Before leaving, the teacher gave her tens of thousands of blue chips, enough for her to spend lavishly for a long time, but Lucy was still used to staying in a lively environment, so in addition to studying, she would continue to work here.
When she is free, she will also do activities with Ahsoka and Felice Anno, whether it is going to the library to read and study, or occasionally following Raphael to participate in gatherings in the mysterious field, or even accepting commissions.
Lucy enjoyed this kind of life very much.
The only thing missing is one most important figure.
But she knew very well that the teacher was a high-ranking person, a big shot, and she was very busy and didn't have time to spend too much time on her. If she wasn't strong enough, she wouldn't be able to help her at all and would only become a burden.
So Lucy worked hard.
She also hoped that one day the teacher would appreciate her and be willing to keep her by her side... Although Lucy knew that she was not worthy of the teacher, she just wanted to stay by her side and watch over her silently.
After Ahsoka and the others left, Lucy was busy until late at night.
After saying goodbye to the landlady as usual, she headed for her apartment.
Lucy looked up at the quiet and beautiful night sky. She no longer felt the loneliness and fatigue she once had. She just felt at peace.
Go back to the apartment, take a shower and lie down.
Everything is as usual.
But after gradually falling asleep.
Lucy vaguely sensed that something was wrong.
She could vaguely hear a call from afar. It was countless men and women shouting something in unison, but Lucy couldn't hear it clearly.
An inexplicable feeling of irritation arises spontaneously.
Lucy tried hard to open her eyelids, but she was unable to do so.
It feels like the body is out of my control.
The calls grew closer.
Getting closer...
She finally heard the voice clearly. It was in some ancient language. Lucy had read a related book in the library. It mentioned that this language was called "Beliyan" and could be traced back to two eras ago.
But Lucy was not fluent in Belyye language, but she somehow understood the meaning of those calls.
They are saying:
"Wake up, wake up..."
"Descendants of the Father, the Great, the Exalted, the Kinsmen of the Lord Abbasiya..."
"Wake up soon..."
"The carnival of honor is about to begin, accept the Father's gift..."
Lucy had no idea what these words meant.
She opened her eyes suddenly—
Tong Kong tightened in the next second!
Because Lucy found that the place she was looking at was not the bedroom she was familiar with.
It's a vast ocean...
The sky was dark and the sun, moon and stars could not be seen.
The sea was vast and boundless, with gentle waves constantly surging and rolling. I was lying on the beach, my body was wet, and even tangled with some disgusting and slippery seaweed and dead fish.
Boom!
Suddenly, huge waves rose in the sea.
Thunder flashed across the dark sky, and ferocious electric claws tore through the clouds wantonly, creating a doomsday-like scene all around.
Lucy sat on the sand, supporting herself with her hands, afraid to move backward.
A pair of beautiful eyes were full of panic.
She clasped her hands together, placed them in front of her chest, lowered her head, and began to silently recite the prayer her teacher had told her before she left:
"You are the door to the great chapter, the beginning of the grand epic... You are the final curtain of the supreme drama, the end of all myths... The lord of the foreign land hidden in the fairyland, the white-scaled dragon who sees through fate, His Majesty Jackspeight... Lucy Payne prays for your response, prays for your help!"
However.
Time passed quietly and nothing happened.
Lucy couldn't help but feel a little desperate.
"It's impossible for the teacher not to respond... By the way, this is a dream, this is my dream!"
boom!
The waves surged into the sky.
The rotting remains of countless marine creatures fell on the shore with crackling sounds. Lucy was hit by several foul-smelling flat rotten fish, and her arm was in great pain.
She looked at her red hands, felt the salty and cold sea breeze mixed with fine water droplets, and fell into confusion again.
Is this a dream?!
If it was a dream, why was it so real, even the pain was so vivid... If it was not a dream, then where was I now
Why doesn't the teacher respond to me...
Lucy caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of her eye, and suddenly looked up. She saw an extremely thick square stone pillar emerging from the sea, stirring up countless waves.
The stone pillar was full of pits and holes, covered with ancient texts and countless fossils of marine life. Its trunk was covered with seaweed and barnacles, giving people a strange sense of horror.
A huge figure hundreds of meters tall was clinging to a stone pillar, with a deformed head covered with dark green scales and colorful fins. It slowly turned its head to look at her.
"ah!"
Lucy was horrified.
A flash of lightning rumbled by, leaving the huge monster in the backlight.
Only a dark outline remains.
"You may call me 'The Seeker of Belle' Garcia Peter..."
The monster seemed to be roaring, but also seemed to be whispering calmly.
The strange and inexplicable tone even drowned out the waves and thunder, and was transmitted directly into Lucy's ears in the language of Believer.
Lucy was so emotionally unstable that she even forgot to speak.
She just stared blankly at the sea and the huge black shadow.
"Lucy Payne, congratulations, you have finally awakened the oracle in your bloodline. Among tens of thousands of descendants, you are the ninth... and also the last."
Without caring whether Lucy could understand or not, the sea monster clinging to the square stone pillar continued.
"Now, I officially declare that you will participate in the 'Carnival of Honor'. The other eight descendants of the Father will come to find you. There will be fights and battles among them. Only the final winner can receive the Father's gift."
Lucy's teeth were chattering with cold, and she hugged herself tightly with her slender hands.
Her wet dark green hair rested on her fair face. She raised her head and summoned up the courage to shout towards the sea:
"I don't want to participate in this inexplicable carnival, and I don't need any gifts. Please let me go back!"
The huge sea monster's shadow was silent for a few seconds, and then said:
"If you don't participate, you will die."
"But I still don't want to..."
Lucy continued, intending to say something.
Suddenly, she felt her consciousness become blurry, the dark sea was disappearing, and the storm and thunder were gradually moving away.
Chirp!
A burst of bird chirping was heard outside the window.
Lucy sat up suddenly in bed.
She was breathing heavily and felt her back was wet with sweat.
After she came to her senses and saw the scene in the bedroom clearly, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"What a real dream..."
Lucy got up and walked to the window, pulling open the curtains.
The warm sunlight shining in seemed to dispel her gloomy mood. Lucy looked at the beautiful scenery outside the window with a serious expression.
"The dreams of extraordinary people often have special meanings, and now that I am a heart thief, I can't take it lightly... I must tell the teacher about this!"
Thinking of this, Lucy clasped her fingers together and prayed in her heart.
But at this moment.
She shuddered all over.
Then he gave up the prayer gesture and put his hands down.
Through the reflection of the window, one could vaguely see a hint of mockery at the corner of Lucy's mouth, and her original eyes turned deadly and cold.
"I will be the final winner of this carnival..."
