One thousand six hundred and ninety-seven wind lanterns that symbolized the heroic spirits of the ancestors emitted a foul stench.
The projection of the Goddess of Light twisted and mutated on the spot, vomiting out a foul-smelling waterfall.
What's this
This is no longer a question of recognition or not.
This is a disguised way of telling the world that even the gods and ancestors hate you, this evil creature!
This was a devastating blow to the aristocratic faction headed by Grand Duke Joachim!
It doesn’t matter if Your Majesty does not get the recognition of your ancestors.
At least you won't get drenched.
a ha ha ha!
"How cruel."
Wayne couldn't help but complain: "I can already imagine how furious Grand Duke Jochim will be when he returns to the military headquarters today. This is even more terrifying than a natural disaster. Who did this?"
For a moment, Tria and Liz's smiles froze.
The red dragon's vertical pupils also shrank violently.
Including Old Neil, no one could help but cough dryly.
Because in their opinion, there was no doubt that it was the captain who did it.
As expected of the captain, he is still in his usual cruel and vicious style.
On the throne, Viltiana had a blank expression on her face, and seemed to be lost in thought.
"Yeah, who did this?"
She whispered softly: "Why do I feel so familiar?"
The queen recalled the scene she had just seen and felt that the style of painting was extremely familiar.
More importantly, given her status, it is not difficult to guess how this was done.
"First, the power of light has been tampered with. Light, as the power of God, is extremely pure. The only power that can tamper with it is another god, so this is the power of gray fog."
"That is to say, someone has integrated some kind of foul-smelling substance into the light. There are only a handful of people in this world who can do this. Could it be the Lord of Gray Mist? Would He care about this?"
“I always feel like something is wrong, but I can’t put my finger on it.”
Weildiana rested her chin on her hand, a trace of confusion flashed in her dark golden eyes. She tapped the armrest of the throne and said softly, "Teacher, are you there? I have something to ask you."
The golden shadow of the World Tree appeared beside her.
The gravekeeper said gently, "Your Majesty, I am here."
"There is something I want to ask you."
Viltiana asked lazily, "After I returned to the capital, I heard a lot of things. Well, things about him. For example, the turmoil in the Valerius family, the Scarlet Night, Augurola's promotion, the demise of the Ancestor family, the truth about the Frostian family, and so on."
The gravekeeper smiled and asked, "And then?"
Weildiana asked calmly, "Who did all these things?"
The gravekeeper explained: "I, Hodel, Constance."
"Of course, it's also thanks to that little girl Norn who brought a substitute puppet to cooperate with us in acting."
He paused and said, "Everything went as planned. We created the illusion that he was still alive."
Weildiana thought for a moment, "I see. Did you see what happened just now?"
The gravekeeper smiled and said, "Well, that's very interesting."
Viltia turned her head and stared at him: "Who did this?"
The gravekeeper was silent for a second. "This is a gift from Valerius Licinius, Your Majesty. Did you know that he has the ability to foresee and divine, so he predicted in advance that Archbishop Jochim would use the power of the Holy See and the recognition of his ancestors to enhance his prestige by returning from the Ice Sea with glory."
He explained, “This is also a gift he left for Josiah. We, a few useless old guys, are just the executors of the plan.”
It was indeed him...
How many gifts did this guy leave for me!
Viltiana raised her carefully painted eyebrows.
"Is it?"

In the orphanage in the 37th Parish.
"Huh..."
Li Xini was sweating profusely, leaning on the bed and gasping for breath, extremely exhausted.
Daphne wiped his sweat with a handkerchief, her face full of anxiety: "Big brother, do you have a fever? It's okay, Detis will go get you some hot water. There are special medicines in the orphanage!"
A moment later, Detis came into the room with a cup of hot water and some pills.
"It's nothing, it's not a fever. I'll be fine after resting for a while." Li Xini waved his hand to indicate that he was fine. At the same time, he forced himself to stand up and sat down on the bed.
Just a moment ago, he sensed some unusual movement coming from above the gray fog.
And faint whispers.
That was the whisper from Baime-chan.
With his consent, most of the power in the gray fog was drained away.
Even the power of light in his body is no exception.
It was squeezed dry almost instantly.
I don't know what this power is used for. It's really weird.
"Your Aunt Jeanne hasn't come back yet?"
Licinius glanced at the sky and it was obviously noon.
The woman stood him up.
Daphne and Desiree shook their heads innocently. They didn't know what was going on.
Licinius used the Dark Eye to divine, and found that the woman's presence was no longer seen in the huge diocese, and no one knew where she had gone to undergo the faith investigation.
Even the auras of those great priests had disappeared.
"Have you gone to the capital?"
Licinius frowned and murmured to himself, "Jeanna accepted the faith investigation because she helped me. She wouldn't stand me up for no reason, so she must have run into trouble. And I know nothing about the Vatican system and have no idea how to help her. So, I still have to go find Karen."
Archbishop Karen was injected with a forbidden potion and could not escape from his grasp.
"You two."
Li Xini looked at the two little girls and asked with a smile: "Do you want to see your mother?"
Daphne and Desiree looked at each other and said, "I want to..."
Li Xini asked again: "Auntie Jeanna is busy, how about I take you to the capital to play? The capital is fun, beautiful and prosperous, with a lot of delicious food, and I can also take you to see your mother."
When Daphne heard that they were going to the royal capital, her eyes suddenly lit up.
However, Deitis pouted and whispered, "Mom won't see us."
Licinius raised an eyebrow: "Why?"
Daphne seemed to have thought of something, and her eyes became downcast. "Because mom is very busy. I heard from Aunt Jeanna that mom is the most talented warlock in the Ministry of Faith and Rites, and she is one of the few archbishops who is good at fighting. Aunt Jeanna also said that if mom hadn't been giving birth, she wouldn't be weaker than Aunt Jeanna."
Desiree also nodded.
Licinius was stunned: "What did you say?"
"Mom is so powerful. She is the one who follows the goddess, so the two of us are just a burden to her."
Daphne and Desiree said, "She won't see us."
Li Xini suddenly felt cold all over, and his pupils shrank: "You said your mother is very powerful?"
Daphne and Desiree nodded vigorously and said seriously, "That's right. Aunt Jeanna said that if she wasn't sure she could beat Mom, she would have beaten her up a long time ago. We don't know why, but the relationship between the two sisters doesn't seem to be very good, unlike us."
Licinius's expression froze, and he always had a bad feeling.
As the Grand Inquisitor of the Inquisition, Jeanne was undoubtedly powerful.
He is definitely not one of those top warlocks that are mass-produced and killed at random.
In the border battle, even though the female devil like Vampire Princess was injured, he was unwilling to get entangled with her.
During the last Scarlet Night, Jeanna was able to completely suppress the evil spirit-transformed mad lion.
This kind of combat power is absolutely top-notch among top warlocks.
If Archbishop Kallen also had this kind of fighting power, he would not have been easily subdued by them last night.
Even if Goldo and Cicely join forces, they can definitely kill him.
But there is no doubt that it will turn the world upside down.
The whole parish was alarmed by the commotion.
It might even cause a stir among the top leaders of the Vatican.
Instead of ending the battle quietly and instantly like last night.
The only explanation is that Archbishop Karen let it go!
"Why would she let him go? There is no reason. As a sixth-level peak warlock, Goldo's illusion cannot have such a strong effect. Even if she was caught off guard for a moment, she would not be completely powerless to fight back under the suppression of that monster Mondes, because she is not a mass-produced fake!"
Li Xini murmured, "The younger sister is so talented, the older sister can't be a weakling, wait!"
He suddenly understood why.
Archbishop Kallen could have fought back!
But when he said the name, she gave up.
Mr. Wager!
"Archbishop Karen did not resist because she knew that I was Mr. Wager's friend!"
Li Xini's pupils suddenly contracted, and he forced himself to stand up, saying in a lost voice: "She said so much last night, not because she was afraid of death, nor because of fear, but to remind me!"
But Archbishop Kallen did not resist, but allowed him to inject the forbidden potion.
why is that
Licinius vaguely guessed something, but didn't dare to think about it.
At this moment, all the unreasonable things seemed to be connected together.
Became reasonable.
Mr. Wager, why didn't you commission him to kill his wife.
It was such a ruthless betrayal.
Why didn't Archbishop Karen fight back and let the forbidden potion be injected into her body
She obviously has that ability.
"Damn it!"
Li Xini's face changed slightly. He reached out and touched the two little girls' heads, and said softly, "It's okay. Do you believe your brother? Come on, put on your clothes, I'll take you to... find your mother..."

The place of eternal sleep is in chaos.
Archbishop Hart was dizzy from the stench and staggered down the mountain.
As if trying to escape from this stinking place.
However, he did not seem to notice that a figure vaguely walked out from the dark forest.
"Hart..."
