Your Honor, the future Supreme Magus, was surprised to learn that the Whale Pirate Crew was backed by the Temple of God.
Fagan's research was focused on the Dungeon Ruins. Logically speaking, there should be no conflict between him and the Church. Why would the Church suddenly want to kill a pure research-type scholar? Not only that, the Church of God wouldn't let go of his only disciple in order to find the things he left behind?
This was a question that could only be answered after learning the final content of Fagan's research. Unfortunately, even Ursula didn't know where the information was.
Lolo stared blankly at Curtis's corpse on the deck.
"What's wrong?"
"Hmm, nothing. I'm just wondering how powerful the Temple of God is. Do they even have people among the pirates?" the girl said.
"The Temple of God is one of the top human forces with the longest history. It has existed for more than two thousand years. Their believers can be found in every corner of the Dawn Continent. Due to the unique nature of their missionary activities, they have a deep understanding of every industry, especially those at the bottom of society. The other forces usually don't care about these people who struggle in poverty. Only the Church is willing to protect them, and the Temple of God is the most powerful supporter of the Church. Therefore, if we want to go against the Temple of God, we must be careful and watch out for threats from all sides," Rob said.
"But what if such a powerful force starts to do evil? I'm wondering how many people like me and Ursula are out there. Their loved ones were kidnapped and killed by the Temple of God, and how many people have disappeared without a trace. " The girl shuddered. "I've always thought that what happened to me was just an exception. It never crossed my mind that as we speak, there might be others who are being hurt as well. They don't even know who their enemies are or where they came from."
Your Honor, the future supreme magus, said after a moment of silence, "The original intention of the Temple of God was to protect human beings with the power of the gods. In the Dark Age before the emergence of the magicians, the Church was indeed supporting and guiding our race. But as human beings got through the most difficult time, few people realized that the core of the Temple of God was quietly changing. Compared to more than a thousand years ago, the Temple of God has become more active and powerful. They have realized the power they have, and they are no longer satisfied with passively waiting for their believers to come to them for help. They want to do more, but this also makes them less pure. In recent years, what Van 'er the Fifth has done is a bit confusing. In fact, there are many people in the Temple of God who are against him now. Before leaving Gudilesi, I heard from D' Attarion that the Inquisition is considering opening an investigation on Van 'er the Fifth. This is the first time in the past four hundred years that the Inquisition has launched an investigation on a pope."
"Merlin said that Van 'er the Fifth wasn't the mastermind of that incident. He was just an insider and a participant. But now that he is the pope, who else can order him around?" Lolo was confused.
"Let's hope that we can get the answer to this question after we find Mother Bernice's diary."
Rob had a hunch that there was a connection between the recent events. From Eluria's death to the Temple's pursuit of Ursula, there seemed to be some kind of hidden connection.
The future Supreme Magus Your Honor used the same method to eliminate the pirates on the other ship. After that, he brought Lolo back to Six Flowers. Apart from the two of them, no one knew that the two of them had left the room. Most people only saw the two ships of the Whale Pirates suddenly give up halfway through the chase. When the sailors on the observation deck reported to Captain Oden that they could no longer see the pirates, the anxious passengers on the ship let out a long sigh of relief and could not help but cheer. That night, many people even got drunk to celebrate their narrow escape from death.
However, Captain Oden did not dare to relax. He did not stop at the original Purple Roland Port. Instead, he chose the nearest port and waited until the Haifa Chamber of Commerce sent out two escort ships before setting off again. Ursula and Barber got off the ship at that small port and took a carriage to the capital of the Lionheart Empire with the letter.
Before they parted, the girl thanked someone again and revealed a very important piece of information. "Thank you for helping me. I forgot to tell you that my teacher seems to be very interested in Ryan's new dungeon. It seems that he left for the north to take a look at the dungeon. I don't know if this information is useful."
Rob raised his eyebrows. "Ryan's dungeon?"
That was also the place where he and Luo Luo had their first adventure. Now that he thought about it, that underground city was indeed unusual. It was located in the Endless Sea of Trees that contained many secrets. The future Supreme Magus had picked up the extremely rare disguise treasure that he was wearing now, and had even abducted Bevinadet as his magical pet. Logically speaking, these two things should not have appeared on this floor, especially the latter. In the past, no one in the final floor of the underground city had seen this beautiful bird that had long gone extinct.
Ryan's dungeon seemed to be a little different from other dungeons. However, there were too few things that could be seen on the first floor. If there was a chance, he would like to take a closer look inside. Perhaps he could find something different.
Rob and Lolo's final destination was the Sacred Alliance. However, in order to not be discovered, they changed ships again at the Purple Roland Port. They still set foot on the land of the Sacred Alliance from Sethevia Port.
The port had not changed much compared to when they first left. The fishing boats returned to the port under the setting sun. Priests preached on the streets. Although it was not as lively as Gudilesi, it looked more peaceful. Rob still remembered Constantine's request. He first went to No. 15 Shady Street. However, this place had changed three times in the past 50 years. The future Supreme Magus Your Honor could not find the latter's daughter, Sylph, so he could only ask the neighbors about her.
An old lady who had been living here told them that after Constantine went missing, Sylph left this place soon after. Someone sold her house and took her away. Such things would usually be recorded in the garrison, but Rob and Lolo's identities were a little special. They were wanted by the Temple and the Magic Association. Even if they could disguise themselves, it would still be risky to sneak into the garrison. However, this was not a problem for Rob. Your Honor, the future Supreme Magus, found the busiest tavern in the area and contacted a middleman from an underground force. After agreeing on a price, he got the files of the garrison.
