Rodney stared at the altar in front of him, his hands trembling as he tried to reach out to touch the silver placenta. He didn't even care about the bloodstains on his body.
After the strange situation just now, the silver placenta seemed to have shriveled up, and the frequency and amplitude of its wriggling became very weak.
The part that had turned into ashes was covered with blood, and there was something like blood, flesh, and tendons growing in it, but the speed was very slow.
After staring at the silver placenta for a while, Rodney's ferocious expression suddenly became gentle. He carefully wanted to touch it but didn't dare to. He walked around the altar and asked softly, "Are you frightened? Who hurt you? Let your humble servant help you solve the problem. Please give me the power again … "
His voice was hoarse, and his tone was slow. "Please, give them back to me …"
The silver placenta violently contracted a few times, like a deformed heart. The part that had been burned to ashes was covered with a fresh layer of skin, and the wound was healed.
Then, it emitted a faint light again.
Rodney's scepter also lit up as if it was responding to the light.
However, the moon that represented the waning moon didn't light up. Instead, it dimmed forever.
Combined with the damage on the placenta, it meant that this time, it wasn't the power that was being worn down, but that it had been completely gouged out from the body of the moon!
Rodney's heart sank, but he still put on a kind and amiable expression. He said softly to the silver placenta, "You did well. Your humble servant will always be loyal to you, begging for your blessings and God's grace. He will also eradicate your enemies for you."
He looked at the silver placenta that was gradually calming down. After staring at it for a while, he turned around and called the Holy Virgin.
The Holy Virgin's beautiful face was very pale. She looked panicked, and her eyes were full of fear. She knelt down and said in a trembling voice, "Your Holiness … I can't find Barker's soul. It's as if he doesn't exist. Someone completely erased his soul!"
He had sent Barker to kill Vincent, and he had confronted the owner of the bookstore … This meant that the current situation was all caused by the owner of the bookstore.
Not only did he kill Barker, but he also burned God's power from the source!
Who the hell was he?!
When he did such a scary thing, all of Nuo Jin was calm. Even if it was God class, killing an Annihilation class would require a lot of effort.
The Annihilation class was able to easily destroy an entire area. That was why it was called the Annihilation class. Why was it being wiped out like cutting vegetables?
Rodney's face was gloomy and unsightly. He waved his hand and said, "I know, you can leave first."
The Saintess excused herself, and the Plenilune Apostle came in to report. He recounted everything that had happened in front of everyone.
The more Rodney heard, the more shocked and angry he became. His hand that was gripping the scepter became paler and paler. His knuckles were protruding because he was using too much strength.
How could there be a god class that could casually kill an Annihilation-class being?
Or had the owner of the bookstore reached a level that did not exist in the legends?
"Impossible! That level could only exist in dreams. Primordial Witches and Gods were all in dreams. No one could reach that level in the real world! Otherwise … what I've been pursuing all my life is wrong. I can't be wrong! "
Rodney's eyes were red, and he gritted his teeth.
"Of course, it can't be wrong," someone suddenly said.
Rodney was stunned.
His voice was low and magnetic, with an inexplicable sense of convincing.
Rodney turned his head and saw a man in a black robe standing in the corner. The man's face was blurry. It was as if he was shrouded in fog. Only a pair of silver eyes could be seen. In the center of his black robe, there was a strange pattern that was full of magic power.
It was a long sword wrapped in flames.
Rodney read the name of the pattern in his heart. It was the Road of the Flaming Sword.
The man in the black robe walked over. He looked at Rodney and said, "Rodney, do you have no confidence in your beliefs?"
"Of course, I believe that I am right!" Rodney retorted loudly at first. Then he hesitated and said, "But the owner of the bookstore, that guy called Lin Jie, what is going on? Vincent's power completely suppresses the Dome Church. You have seen it now. We have no way of dealing with him. What about you? "
He angrily said, "Didn't you say you could help me?"
"Stupid!" The man in the black robe said, "Do you want the Dome Church or the power that surpasses the gods?"
Rodney was scolded in the face, but he didn't dare to get angry. With a shiver, he woke up and realized that this wasn't a situation where he could be angry. The dignified Pope lowered his head and said, "Of course it's strength."
The man in the black robe said in a low voice, "Then don't worry about anything else. Focus on the ritual and help the moon escape. As long as it can come out of the dream, we can expand the crack in the dream and obtain the power of the dream."
"We will continue to provide you with raw materials. Now we have to speed up. The Oak Tree Merchant Guild is about to be exposed. You still want to mess around. Remember, your first task is to help the moon come out of the dream. Do you understand?"
Rodney unwillingly nodded, "Yes."
The man in the black robe walked to the window and looked out at the dark night. He continued, "Lin Jie's matter will be dealt with by Lord Michael. He has already ruined our plan twice. He is a great enemy of the Road of the Flaming Sword. Naturally he needs to be eliminated."
"As for what Vincent wants to do, or what will happen to the Dome Church, it is none of your business."
He turned his head, his silver eyes cold. "Remember, we let you ascend to the position of Pope from the Pope's attendant, not to protect the Dome Church. You don't have the qualifications."
Rodney remembered the identity of the man in front of him. It was the first Pope who founded the Dome Church at the beginning of the third era. He was now one of the ten founders of the Road of the Flaming Sword, codenamed "Gabriel".
In comparison, he did not have the right …

The next day.
Ke Laode was busy all night. He finally paid the bookstore a visit when it was time to open for business.
The bookstore was the same as before, but there was one more person.
The blindfolded priest's mental state was much better. It was due to the new faith he found in the book "Eternal End" and the countermeasures he discussed with Moen in the dream.
The two reached a consensus and decided to establish a new church.
As for the followers, they still needed to do some work, especially with the cooperation of the Miyi Tower.
After Claude entered the door, he first greeted Boss Lin and thanked him for his cooperation and help. Lin Jie had the expression of a warm-hearted good citizen as he said with a smile, "Of course, of course, upholding justice is everyone's responsibility."
He pointed to Vincent beside him and said, "The person involved is here. You can ask for the details. I still have to open for business. You can go next door to discuss."
"Next door?"
"Yes, I plan to open a shop next door." Lin Jie smiled. "Moen will be in charge."
