"That's also my only concern" Gu Qing Shan said: "But according to Impartial Goddess and my analysis, the Pope very rarely comes to these kinds of banquets"
Ye Fei Li said: "How about I go with you? If that Pope or whatever he is, if he dares to act presumptuously in front of us, I'll teach him a lesson "
The others all turned to look at him with strange expressions on their faces.
"What is it?" Ye Fei Li was confused.
"I'll bet 10 Credits that you can't beat that monster" Liao Xing said.
"You don't have that much faith in me?" Ye Fei Li asked.
"I'll bet 100 million, you'll die a painful death" Jang Young-ho said.
Ye Fei Li didn't believe him and looked at Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan patted his shoulder and said: "Only when you can beat Anna will you have the qualifications to fight against the Holy Apostles of the Holy Church"
"Wait until one day you can beat Anna, and then a Holy Apostle, then you can think about how to come back alive from the Pope"
"Anna … is only a peak 4th stage Elementalist, I'm a 6th stage Man Killer Fiend King" Ye Fei Li was unconvinced.
Gu Qing Shan said: "I've said it before, the division of strength isn't that simple, Anna's Fire element combined with her God's Chosen Skill makes her even stronger than a normal 5th stage Professionist"
Ye Fei Li looked at Anna and said: "How about we fight?"
Anna scoffed: "Look at your glass"
Ye Fei Li looked down, only to see that the glass in his hand was already half melted.
"If we really fought, you'd already be dead" Anna raised her chin and said.
"When did this happen?" Ye Fei Li was dejected.
He was a bit hurt from that.
"It can't be helped, a Mystic-type God's Chosen Skill can't be measured with common sense" Jang Young-ho consoled him.
Ye Fei Li suddenly asked Gu Qing Shan, "What about you? Your swordsmanship is the best I've ever seen. Can you deal with the Vatican? "
"If it's a Holy Disciple, I can still spar with him." Gu Qing Shan smiled.
"What if we run into the Pope?"
"If I can't escape, I'll definitely die."
"You'll die too?"
"The difference in strength is too great. Naturally, he will die."
Jang Young-ho also agreed: "If the Pope were here, all of us would be dead."
Anna suddenly looked at Gu Qing Shan and said, "How about I disguise myself and go with you?"
"No, it's too dangerous. I won't allow you to go."
Gu Qing Shan's attitude was very firm.
Liao Xing pondered on the side and said, "Then we must pay attention to this old woman's movements."
He typed out a long list of data on the screen, then sent it to Impartial Goddess.
"Please extract the core formula from this address and make thirty of them."
[What a beautiful formula, Mr. Liao] Impartial Goddess replied.
Gu Qing Shan asked: "What is it?"
"Nano-scale surveillance device, the proudest invention of my entire life" Liao Xing proudly said.
"You're going to use it to monitor the Pope?"
"Of course, I'll spread it across the entire Holy Church, no one will be able to detect it"
"This thing, I feel like it's not just limited to that …" Ye Fei Li said, thinking.
Liao Xing turned to look at her, his lips curled up, his eyes full of 'you're still too young and inexperienced'.
"That way, we'll be able to know the Pope's situation and notify you at any time" Anna happily patted Gu Qing Shan's shoulder, her tense heart finally relaxed.
"Very well, we'll keep in touch" Gu Qing Shan said.
While he was talking, he was silently thinking about a strange question.
In his previous life, the Pope was the most mysterious of all the humans in the real world.
During that long period of time, of the countless Professionists who fought against her, only the Fuxi Empire's Emperor managed to survive.
The Fuxi Emperor had to rest for over half a year to fully recover, after which he kept his mouth shut about that battle.
Because of that, no one knows how the Pope fought or what trump cards she had up her sleeves.
In fact, with the 7 Holy Apostles there, under normal circumstances, she wouldn't even need to do anything.
But the strangest thing was, during the final year of the Apocalypse, the Pope disappeared without a trace.
No one knew where she went, whether she was dead or alive.
But the number of people who were still alive at that time was getting smaller and smaller, everyone was too busy looking after themselves, so the investigation into her disappearance was quickly abandoned.
At this point, Impartial Goddess' voice came.
[The flight plan has been prepared, sir, you may depart at any time]
"Very well, I'm leaving"
Gu Qing Shan stood up and gestured.
A Mobile Mech rose from the ground, layer by layer, attaching itself to his body.
This was the standard Mech that Impartial Goddess had in reserve.
Due to the lack of time, Gu Qing Shan didn't specifically make a Mobile Mech.
[Sir, there's no time to make a new Mech, only by implanting a miniature stealth system into this Mech will it be able to go invisible for 1 minute] Impartial Goddess answered.
"Should I use my latest calculation technique?"
"Yes"
"1 minute is enough to get from the sky to the ground, it's fine even if it's not enough"
Saying so, Gu Qing Shan quickly stepped onto a small-sized Interstellar ship, turned around and waved at everyone.
"I'll be back soon" he said.
The ship's door closed, the engine roared and started up.
The small-sized ship headed towards the planet below the S.W. Divine Temple.
The ship quickly entered the atmosphere, circling back and forth at a fixed altitude.
[Sir, we're currently at the edge of the Holy Church's surveillance, another 100 meters and we'll be discovered by the Holy Empire's surveillance system]
"Open the hatch, I'll use the Mech to sneak in"
The hatch opened.
Gu Qing Shan jumped down.
At another location.
The Holy Empire's capital cathedral.
A woman wearing a white robe, her entire body glowing with light sat on the throne.
On top of her head, a shining halo hovered, giving off alternating strong and weak holy light, making her look like an angel.
This was the Holy Church's Pope.
She was holding a drawing board in her hand, seemingly in the middle of drawing.
Whenever she has nothing to do, she would draw something, this was her pastime.
"His Majesty the King requests an audience" two clergymen quickly came in and reported.
"Let him in, everyone else leave, I want to speak to the King alone" the Pope didn't look up and said.
"Yes"
The two clergymen left.
A few moments later, the King came in.
He was sobbing: "Mother, I'm so lonely, why hasn't Anna come yet"
The Pope sighed and said: "Your recent actions have disappointed me, anyone can see that you're not the King"
"The Holy Empire is also slowly breaking apart because of this, this is all your fault"
The King loudly shouted: "I don't care, if you don't give me Anna, I'll keep causing trouble!"
The Pope went silent, then her tone became cold: "We've agreed, if you can do your job well, I'll give Anna to you as a soul ingredient for you to absorb"
"But you haven't done your job, you're still causing trouble in front of me"
"Son, you're not being good"
The Pope reached her hand out and drew a line in the air.
The King acted like he didn't hear her and continued to shout, but couldn't make any sound.
"You need to rest for a while, reflect on your mistakes" the Pope said.
Hearing the word 'rest', the King appeared fearful, desperately tried to say something, but still couldn't make any sound.
The King hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy.
The Pope shook her head, casually took out a pen and started drawing on the paper.
She quickly drew while muttering: "I'll give you some quiet space, go and reflect on what you've done wrong, after this period of time, if I still remember, you can come out again"
Hearing that, the King's face was full of fear and despair.
All of a sudden, the King's stomach was opened, a terrifying gnome slid out, turned around and ran.
The gnome shouted: "No! I don't want to go back! I want to stay in this world! "
But the Pope had already finished drawing.
On the drawing board, there was an empty black cage.
The Pope put her pen away, took the drawing down from the board, and threw it into the air in front of her.
The drawing of the cage flashed and disappeared, then flew right above the gnome's head.
The drawing quickly grew bigger, like an open mouth, and swallowed the gnome whole.
The Pope waved her hand, the drawing quickly flew back into her hand.
On the drawing, an ugly gnome with sharp fingers was sitting on the ground with a dejected expression.
He was trapped inside the cage.
A few lines of text quickly appeared on the drawing board.
[Imprisoned sharp-fingered gnome]
[Sharp-fingered gnome, expert at manipulating corpses, simulating what they looked like when they were still alive]
[Sharp-fingered gnomes are madly in love with beautiful women who have both God's Chosen and Elemental talents, evolving and growing by consuming their combined powers]
The Pope put the drawing away and shook it a bit.
