"Fate reshaping?" The pope's expression became even weirder: "How many professionals did you sacrifice to use this magic?"
"Twenty." The heretic interrogator hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, please rest assured that those twenty professionals are our enemies or prisoners. We did not kill any of our own people."
The Pope nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
The magic of fate reshaping is a bit evil, and it needs to sacrifice a certain number of powerful souls to the goddess of fate to activate it. The ability to observe certain things at a certain place and at a certain time.
This is not time reshaping magic, but causal magic.
There are also quite a few magics that can block the observation of fate reshaping, such as the magic of the Hades religion, and the Dark Iron Curtain has this effect.
Therefore, both the Pope and the Inquisitor agreed that the Fate Recovery was blocked by the Dark Iron Curtain.
"I heard that Hades seems to have fallen." The Pope showed a thoughtful look: "Why can their priests still use the Dark Iron Curtain?"
"Perhaps he hasn't completely fallen, he's just dying." The Pope snorted softly: "Recently, there have been a lot of problems with the gods. First, the sanctuary of the Sect of Light was destroyed by inexplicable divine power, and then I heard that the God of Lies disappeared. When the gods fall, I always feel that the God Realm is not peaceful."
The heresy interrogator dared not answer the question indiscriminately.
The Pope of Life waited for a while, and when he saw that the other party did not speak, he felt bored, and said: "Then just go and check the mercenaries around Celia, maybe you can't find anything, but you have to check. In addition Go to Baghdad and see if you can find the other two blueprints for magic equipment."
The Inquisitor nodded and stepped back.
And Monica returned home at this time, saw three mercenaries lying on the ground, and looked at Beta who was sitting and reading a book, and couldn't help smiling: "Did they provoke you?"
Beta closed the book and told what happened.
Monica laughed immediately, looking at the three mercenaries with a mocking expression. She uses magic to wake the three from their coma.
As soon as the warrior mercenary woke up, he cried out: "Master, this little boy is going to run away with your gem. We tried to stop him, but he beat him like this."
When Monica heard this, her face became very strange. Want to laugh but can't laugh, want to scold people, but there is no anger in my chest. I had to ask back: "Since he wants to escape, why is he still here?"
The mercenary soldier murmured for a while, and then came up with a very idiotic reason: "Because he probably thinks he can't escape."
"Do you think I'm an idiot?" Monica shook her head: "Get out of here now, and take the initiative to go to the mercenary union to terminate the contract, otherwise you don't want to leave."
The three fled the room like rabbits.
Monica sighed, "It's really difficult to find a reliable subordinate."
Beta asked: "How about the magic drawing?"
"It's okay. The Pope really has doubts about me." Monica sneered twice: "Although he concealed it well, he underestimated my ability too much."
Beta nodded, stopped talking, and continued reading.
And Monica stepped beside him, and asked with a charming smile: "Sending that blueprint up, will the Pope really not suspect that the blueprint is from the God of Wealth?"
"Drawings with completely different styles, how could they be suspected together." Beta thought for a while and explained: "For example, although they are both dragon blood, do you think pterosaurs and kobolds are the same species?"
"Is the difference really that big?"
"That's how big it is." Beta smiled and said, "Unless the Pope of Life doesn't consult professionals, he just suspects you based on intuition."
Monica patted his chest, and there was a surge of waves: "Then I am more at ease. This Pope is a very cautious person, I can see it."
Beta has considered the issue of drawings, so the drawings he gave Monica are not his own works. It was the first piece of magic equipment that Roland made when he first learned the blueprints of alchemy.
Beta and Roland have different personalities. The latter likes flashy and beautiful lines, and the magic equipment they make has profound technology in the gorgeousness, but it is also extremely practical.
And Beta's magic equipment design concept is just two words: simple and durable.
Moreover, the various magic blueprints given by Beta as the pope are the works after his alchemy mastery.
What is given to the Pope now is Roland's original work.
The technical content and concept gap between the two is very huge. Anyone who has a little knowledge of magic equipment making techniques will be able to tell the difference.
"Next, I'm going to the Mercenary Union to recruit a few more subordinates." Monica subconsciously pulled Beta's arm: "You go with me."
Fine. Beta followed and left the room.
City of Sicily.
After more than three months of intensive reconstruction, the new city has been rebuilt from the ruins.
Almost all the citizens were wiping their eyes and crying.
The reputation of the God of Wealth has reached Sicily at this moment. Anyone with a stronger sense of spiritual power can 'see' a little golden light of faith floating in the sky, and then be attracted by the Godhead of the Goddess of Wealth, soaring to the sky at an extremely fast speed.
After Katie handed over the task of guarding, she rushed to Woking City without incident.
Using the canal he built, it took Katie about two days to rush back from Sicilia to the vicinity of Woking City.
It was getting late at this time, and she settled down in a small city beside the canal. When he was about to take a rest, he saw a dark shadow below his hotel.
It's a colleague!
Katie jumped down from the second floor and followed the man in black to a forest on the outskirts of the city. On a tree trunk outside the forest, she saw a familiar symbol of twin daggers.
This is the assassin's secret, she touched it lightly with her hand, and understood the code on it.
'Have a meeting where anyone can attend. '
Katie covered her face with a black scarf, and followed the guide signs along the way to the depths of the woods, where she saw a clearing.
There was a bonfire in the middle of the clearing, surrounded by a dozen or so assassins with their faces covered.
Katie's arrival attracted everyone's attention, but seeing that she was also dressed in a night suit in black, with a sharp figure, it was not surprising at the moment, the one at the scene was not an assassin.
Katie found a seat and sat down by herself.
After waiting for a while, more than a dozen people came indistinctly, and several of them were quite strong. Katie became more and more curious about what the hell these guys were up to.
Moreover, since she became the Dark Consul, she has never participated in this kind of secret gathering of assassins. Now that she meets her once, she immediately feels full of nostalgia, as if more than ten years have passed in her life.
Not long after, another assassin came. This assassin is a little different from ordinary assassins. It can be seen that his figure is quite burly, and his eyebrows are also white.
I just don't know whether it's because the eyebrows turn white when a person gets old, or he is born with white hair.
This person's aura is also well hidden, even Katie can't see his strength.
"I called this secret meeting." said the white-browed assassin, whose voice was seriously distorted because his mouth was behind the kerchief: "Please come here, mainly to say one thing. We received According to the news, there are at least five factions who want to take the life of Pope Beta, and the money given by each faction is very high, so I think everyone can make money together."
Katie's heart trembled, but she seemed normal on the surface, listening to the white-browed assassin's words quite seriously.
"As we all know, some time ago, the God of Life Sect sent people to attack the Pope. But they all failed." Bai Mei said with some complacency: "I investigated the reason for their failure because they didn't know what happened to us in Holevin." Such a change."
"There are fewer and fewer beggars, and beggars will work for the God of Wealth in winter in exchange for food and bedding for the winter." There is obvious ridicule in the distorted voice of the white eyebrows: "They actually said that they came from other people. from the city."
The group of people below were laughing, and Katie also pretended to be hilarious.
"Now we have received a lot of rewards for the assassination of Pope Beta. At first we didn't dare to accept this business, because the difficulty is too high." Baimei swept around the crowd and said in a low voice: "But I recently discovered that a weakness of his."
Katie's heart skipped a beat, subconsciously wanting to pry her own dagger. But in the end she endured it, and she wanted to continue to hear what kind of assassination methods these guys had.
Bai Mei continued: "Pope Beta is very beautiful, but he doesn't take the initiative. So we only need to find a beautiful and active woman to send to Pope Beta, and we have a chance to poison him."
A group of people cried out eagerly.
Is the pope so easy to poison? The meals he ate were all poisoned by a special person first, and then "passed" again with magic spells such as detoxification. It is almost impossible to poison.
Bai Meimei smiled and said: "Of course ordinary poisons are not good, and they can also be detected by magic. But there is a kind of poison, which is colorless and odorless, and can't even be detected by magic."
"What is it?"
Everyone was curious, and Katie listened with wide-eyed eyes.
"A sex-enhancing drug." Bai Mei smiled and said, "Smear that drug on the woman's place, and then when Pope Beta visits her, she will naturally be poisoned."
Everyone inhaled suddenly: this method is too ruthless.
Katie's face turned slightly red.
"This kind of medicine will improve men's abilities in a short period of time. But after that, it will make men feel sore backs and legs, and temporarily lose control of their spirits. After that, he will be slaughtered by us."
"But the problem is that the Pope doesn't leave the City Lord's Mansion and the Cathedral, how do we get in?"
Another assassin asked.
This time the white-browed assassin said directly: "Sneaking is our specialty. If we have to give up just because there are a few guards, isn't that a pity? Let me tell you the truth, as long as we complete this mission , at least six thousand gold coins."
Hearing this number, the faces of all the assassins became excited.
"Who gave the task, the money is not a small amount, is the person reliable?"
Katie asked suddenly.
