Just as Saruman was speaking, two more people came out of the woods.
They bowed to Luo Bu, and then naturally stood beside the old bishop.
Saruman pointed to the middle-aged man on the left and said, "This is Rogge, the leader of the First Holy Knight Squad. You've met him before, Your Holiness. Let me introduce you to the Chief Judge of the Court of Heresy, Mr. Osman."
A skinny, ordinary-looking old man performed a standard knight's salute. Unlike Rogge and Saruman, he did not exude any holy aura, just like an ordinary person.
"It's you!" Luo Luo's eyes widened as she cried out involuntarily. She could never forget those cold eyes. On the fourth day after her father's disappearance, people from the Church suddenly appeared in front of her without any warning. They forcefully took over the Bretton family's castle, massacred a group of old men loyal to Karov, and put her, the next head of the family, under house arrest. On the sixth day, the owner of those eyes came to see her and asked her if she had seen anything. At that time, she would never have thought that this unassuming old knight was the master of the Church's number one dark organization.
Osman shook his head. "That's too much. What Chief Inquisitor? I'm just an old dog of the Church, doing chores for His Majesty and the Temple that no one else is willing to do. I've almost forgotten the names of those who walk in the dark. If His Majesty has any orders, I will naturally do my best."
The old knight then looked into the girl's eyes and said, "Now that you know who's looking for you, you should know that you can't hide any longer. Although the world is big, God's grace is everywhere. You may feel that what happened to you is unfair, just like how your father felt that what happened to your mother was unfair. But this is how the world is. Injustice befalls you at every moment, and when it happens to you, you can only sigh at your bad luck. You can complain, you can struggle, and you can roar at fate … But in the end, you still have to accept everything. Come, child, come to me. I know you're not a bad person, and we don't want the tragedy of the Northern Region to happen again. As long as you return with us, I can guarantee you that no one will get hurt again."
"The Deities Templar is as shameless as ever." Rob, the future Supreme Magus Your Honor, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke up. "You're the one who single-handedly orchestrated the events in the Northern Region, and now you're blaming us for the deaths? Don't forget, if it weren't for us blocking those monsters, the millions of people in the Northern Region would have perished."
"What happened there was the result of the discussion between the Magic Association and the Church. It was also the decision of the entire human race. We were just carrying out the decision." Solomon said lightly, "Your Holiness must be very clear about this. You are the future guardian of the human race, so why do you have to stand against the entire human race? Hand him over, and I believe President Da Vinci will be more than happy to restore your authority in the Sorcerer's Association. His Holiness the Pope is willing to create the conditions for you and President Da Vinci to communicate and clear up any misunderstandings between you two. Not only will you be able to save the Northern Region, you will also be able to save the entire human race. "
Rob snorted. "Compromising and giving in will not save the human race. I've already made my choice in Mitchell's Mage Tower. This choice will not and cannot be changed. I'd like to see who can stop us from leaving." The future Supreme Magus Your Honor held the Lord of Eternal Night horizontally in front of his chest. Accompanied by unparalleled confidence, a terrifying aura rose into the sky the next moment.
Even Solomon and the other two could not help but take half a step back in the face of this aura.
"Truly, the new generation replaces the old." Logue, the leader of the First Paladin Legion, sighed. "He's only at the seventh grade, and he already has such a powerful aura. When he reaches the ninth grade, who in this world can stop him?"
"Unfortunately, such a powerful force cannot be used by humans … It seems that we have no choice but to destroy it today." Solomon did not retreat anymore. The next moment, a powerful divine power surged out of the Grimoire in his hand. This divine power condensed into a human figure, and at the same time, his aura rose steadily. This former red-robed bishop of the Church did not hold back and actually used his ultimate move right from the start.
Last time in Gudilesi, in order to capture Luo Luo, his Holy Body basically self-destructed without much effort. Saruman wanted to use this method to suppress Luo Luo, D 'Addarion, and Oravian, but he did not expect that it would backfire. He lost his Holy Body in vain and failed to trap the other party.
This time, he would not make the same mistake. Saruman knew very well that he could only catch Luo Luo if he took down Luo Bu first.
The moment he made his move, Logue and Osman also moved. They were all bigwigs of the Pantheon, and ever since they took up their positions, they rarely went into battle in person, let alone fighting together in the same operation. If this matter was spread out, it would probably cause an uproar in the Dawn Continent.
However, at this moment, the three of them did not look relaxed at all. On the contrary, they all had different degrees of seriousness on their faces. This was because the opponent in front of them was the most outstanding genius in the entire history of magic after Roland, the creator of the mana sharing mechanism, and the young man who once single-handedly defeated a group of eighth and ninth grade masters in the Magic Association.
Compared to when he was in Gudilesi, Luo Bu had also changed a lot. Not only had his strength increased by one level, but he had also changed back to his luxurious equipment. After the trip to the snowy mountain and the encounter with Matata, his strength had improved to varying degrees. This improvement was not a one-time thing, but a continuous one. There was progress every day that was visible to the naked eye.
Saruman felt this the most. When he was in Gudilesi, he could easily suppress someone with his own strength, but when they met again, it had only been more than a year, but he felt that the person standing in front of him was like a different person. He didn't think he could defeat the other party in a one-on-one fight.
At this moment, he completely understood why His Highness the Pope had chosen the three of them for this operation. Under such circumstances, he also had reason to believe that Roland would not be able to escape from them.
After all, the three of them were bigwigs of the Church. Although they were cautious, they still had this bit of confidence. There was not much suspense in this battle. Three peak ninth grade professionals put down their pride and joined hands to deal with a young man in his early twenties.
