"I brought this up because we've received information that … the Godly Sword has reappeared," Pope Carlo suddenly said.
"That's right." Li Huailin could not help but reply in his heart. Of course, he knew that the Pope would never expect the Godly Sword to be in his backpack. He would probably be scared to death if he took it out. However, in order to obtain more information, Li Huailin was slightly surprised. "What Godly Sword has reappeared?"
"Yes." Pope Carlo nodded. "Although I don't want to believe it, this information should be true. When the warrior came, he also conveyed the God of Light's message. It seems like the God of Light knows about this."
"What's the exact situation?" Li Huailin asked. He was completely aware of this matter. He just wanted to know how much the Vatican knew about it.
"During the war between you humans and the Demons, didn't the Undead participate in this war? It is said that during the war, a black-robed man holding what looked like a divine sword appeared. This man looked like the leader of the undead. According to the intelligence, this man defeated the devil army 70 times more than them in this war by relying on the army of 1000 people. This really makes people think of the battle 100 years ago. "
"What? There's such a situation?" Li Huailin looked very surprised. "The Undead didn't report this to us at all."
"Of course they want to keep this information," Pope Carlo said. "A hundred years ago, they already failed once. This time, it seems like they are much more careful. Even if they have the Godly Sword, they will temporarily keep this secret and develop their own forces first."
"I see." Li Huailin seemed to be nodding his head cautiously.
"The Undead must be plotting something now. The important thing is that no one has discovered this situation yet." Pope Carlo frowned. "We didn't notice it at first. It wasn't until the warrior brought the God of Light's oracle here that we officially confirmed it."
"Yes, that's right." Li Huailin nodded. It seemed that the Church of Light's knowledge was limited, but he reckoned that they would pay more attention to this matter in the future. After thinking for a while, he asked, "So … what was the task that the God of Light gave to the warrior?"
"Prepare for a rainy day." Pope Carlo said, "Although we haven't confirmed whether the Undead really have a godly sword, we still need to be prepared. If the situation from a hundred years ago happens again, it will be too late. Therefore, we need to prepare in advance. Lord Divine Light God wants this warrior to find another godly sword, which is the one Shang Wennuo left behind."
"Oh?" Li Huailin was slightly taken aback. He didn't expect the mission to be to find the Godly Sword. This … this was getting serious. If the other party really found it, wouldn't he have to fight him head-on with the Godly Sword? After thinking about it, Li Huailin asked, "Is there any news about that divine sword?"
"Our Church doesn't have any news." Pope Carlo shook his head. "It's just as I said earlier. After the war ended, both Lord Hoppes and Lord Shang Wennuo suddenly disappeared. No one knows where they went, but we've recently received some traces of them."
"Some clues?" Li Huailin asked.
"Bishop, do you know of a place called 'Death Valley'?" Pope Carlo suddenly asked.
"Death Valley?" Li Huailin was slightly taken aback. Wasn't that the place where he obtained the Godly Sword? After thinking about it, Li Huailin answered carefully, "I've heard of that place. It's in the south of the Empire. It's said that it produces an alchemy material called Water of Death, and it's also said to be a very dangerous place."
"Yes, that's the place." Pope Carlo nodded and said, "All this while, our Church has been investigating the situation there. It's not only because of the appearance of the Undead creatures, but also because we think that it has something to do with the Godly Sword. However, until now, there hasn't been any information that can link the two."
"That place has something to do with the Godly Sword?" Li Huailin looked very surprised.
"Recently, that place has been undergoing strange changes," Pope Carlo said. "This news hasn't been announced, but I can tell you first that the Water of Death in Death Valley has stopped production."
"Stopped production?" Li Huailin asked.
"Yes. I don't know what happened, but the Netherworld River is gradually drying up, and the toxicity is also slowly weakening. Although the poisonous fog is still spreading, the density has decreased significantly. We don't know what happened, but all of this is too abnormal," the Netherworld King said with a sigh. Pope Carlo said, "More importantly, we sent people into Death Valley to investigate, and they found corpses that should belong to our Church's branch. Although the corpses had been corroded by the poisonous gas, we can basically confirm that they were the corpses of the 41st Knights of the Vatican."
"Huh?" Speaking of this, Li Huailin suddenly thought of someone. He had met this group of knights before, and several of them were killed by the mutated undead creatures. There was a female knight who survived. Li Huailin remembered that she ran away. Why didn't she return to the Church of Light?
"Because of this incident, we re-investigated the mass deaths of the townspeople in the nearby Mariana Town, and we found some new suspicious points," Pope Carlo said.
"The townspeople died en masse?" Li Huailin asked.
"Yes, the residents of the nearby town of Marianna have all died. A team of knights we sent there also died there. However, when we first discovered traces of the Undead, we thought that the Undead were trying to collect fresh corpses for a sneak attack on a human town. However, after our investigation, we discovered some doubts. Some of the corpses didn't have any wounds on them, and the way they died was a little strange. After our investigation, we also discovered some strange energy in the bodies of these corpses. We are currently investigating it, but unfortunately, there were no survivors at that time. Naturally, the Undead wouldn't provide us with any information."
"It seems that the female knight really didn't come back. I wonder where she went," Li Huailin thought.
"Because this incident is a little strange, and it might be related to the Divine Sword, we sent the warrior just now to investigate. I believe he will definitely find something. We will naturally cooperate with him," Pope Carlo said.
"Oh? So that's how it is. " Li Huailin nodded. It turned out that the two sides were going to Death Valley for a mission. Of course, Li Huailin really knew that it was related to the Divine Sword. After all, he had picked up the Divine Sword there. However, Li Huailin didn't want the Church of Light to know about this. It would be a little troublesome.
"Of course, this place is originally in the territory of the human race. Our relationship with the human empire is a little tense, so as a Duke of the human race, I hope that you can help our church," Pope Carlo said. "When the warrior investigates the situation, I hope that the protagonist can help him."
"That's not a problem." Li Huailin smiled. "No matter what, I am also a member of the Church of Light. Naturally, I will help the church. Don't worry, I will definitely help."
"Hmm …" Pope Carlo nodded without any suspicions. "As expected, with Bishop's approval, I feel much more at ease. Bishop Roland, this is no small matter. It concerns the survival of our entire continent, so you must do your best. Also, we can't announce this matter to the public yet. Otherwise, we don't know if the undead over there will suddenly launch an attack. We aren't ready to fight them yet, so we can't let them know that we already know about this matter."
"Of course, of course." Li Huailin nodded as if he understood the situation. In fact, the person who wielded the divine sword already knew the current situation from Li Huailin's mouth.
"Hmm … I am relieved that you know." Pope Carlo nodded. "By the way, why did you come here today, Bishop?"
"Eh?" Li Huailin was slightly stunned. He suddenly remembered that he seemed to have taken the initiative to look for him. Now, he was only listening to a part of his mission. He didn't say why he was here, but he was really here to ask about this matter. After thinking for a while, Li Huailin replied, "Oh, I don't have anything to do here. It's just about the construction of the main city parish. You know that I am a newly appointed official, so there are many things that I don't know how to deal with, so I came to ask for your experience."
"No problem. I have heard from my subordinates about the situation on your side. I heard that you have fired eight of the priests we sent. Didn't you do a good job? Also, I heard that you have ordered to remove the statue of the God of Light in the main palace and replace it with a … statue of what's the name of the god? Isn't that good? Don't be modest, Bishop Ruolin. You have really done a good job. When I was a bishop, I wasn't as perfect as you. You are indeed the most loyal priest of the Church of Light. "Pope Carlo was generous with his praise.
"Hmm, hmm." Li Huailin nodded. It seemed that Morrisa was making good progress. "Since you are satisfied, then I am relieved. In that case, I will go and see if the warriors over there need any help."
"Hmm." Pope Carlo nodded.
