On the other side.
"call--"
Seeing that the dispute in the living room was finally resolved, Lanqi also smiled and breathed a sigh of relief, as if he was relieved that the two of them could reconcile.
"Let's sit down and talk."
Lanqi extended his hand gracefully and calmly, inviting both of them to take a seat.
Sigrid and Hyperion, who had originally wanted to argue about who Lanqi should sit with when their eyes met, immediately held back their words and sat down at each end of the sofa.
Whoever stirs up trouble at this time will suffer.
Gloria quickly made way for him and waited by the side like a servant.
So Lanqi had no intention of sitting on the sofa. He turned around and walked to the magic crystal screen embedded in the wall. He put his backed-up video crystal into the magic projector on the cabinet, and then turned off the lights in the room.
Audio and video began to be projected onto the dim wall facing the sofa.
Although Hyperion was confused, she still watched carefully.
The perspective should be Lanqi's. He is in a heavily guarded city-state, which seems to be in the north of the empire. The outside of the city-state is surrounded by frozen land and snow-capped mountains.
The clear war songs played by orchestra and drums, coupled with the uninhabited city-state, have a creepy and weird feeling.
In the picture, the photographer passed through the suspended corridor of the city gate and stepped into the upper level of the city-state. From time to time, he talked with Sid who was beside him outside the picture, and their voices were interspersed in the picture.
It was not until the two of them stood on the upper pillar layer of the city-state with uneven heights and turned their eyes to the side that they saw snowflakes in the sky floating down with the wind on this wide suspension bridge. They floated for a long time before falling into the lower pillar layer that was tens of meters deep. It was obvious that as long as they went to the residential area on the lower level, they could find out the reason why the city-state was sparsely populated.
however.
At this moment, the picture suddenly became blurred, as if everything in the photographer's field of vision accelerated instantly, and the photographer himself was taken to the sky.
High in the sky, the camera finally gradually made out the full picture of this northern border city-state through the clouds.
Only the entrance that we passed before was still peaceful, but the depths had already been shrouded in a darkness like a solar eclipse.
The black fog seemed to be swallowing up the scattered limbs and arms. Whether they were children, women, or the elderly, their bodies were filled into the pit...
At this point, Lanqi turned off the projection magic device.
Then, Bishop Asksan of Annihilation appears, and Sigrid fights him with the true power of the Catholic Church.
Lanci knew that Sigrid didn't want anyone to know her true identity now.
The room was completely filled with darkness, and the only source of light was the quietly operating projection magic device.
Hyperion sat on the sofa with her eyes wide open, as if she was watching a confidential documentary late at night.
It was also the first time that Gloria saw this shocking scene. She was so surprised that she couldn't speak. She could probably imagine the situation that the Bishop and the Son of God encountered in the north.
Lanci remained silent, giving Hyperion enough time to think, and he turned on the light again.
"As for cooperation, I can't force you two to do it. I can only act as a middleman and help you reach some mutually beneficial deals as much as possible."
Lanci said as he looked at Hyperion and Sigrid sitting on the sofa. He avoided the word "cooperation" and tried to treat it as a "transaction".
"The current goal of the Tyrant Branch is to destroy the Desolation Branch. As for the Church of the Goddess of Fate, no one should want the Bishop of Desolation to be elected as the leader of the Protoss Empire, right?"
Lanci looked at Hyperion again.
Hyperion nodded.
According to what she had heard, the Tyrant Branch had not done anything particularly bad in the Protoss Empire, but the Silent Branch had committed an unforgivable crime. No matter what conspiracy was behind it, once it was completed, it would be an irreparable disaster.
We must never allow Bishop Silent to become the person in charge of the Protoss Empire.
"As long as it is about combating the Nirvana branch, the Church of the Goddess of Destiny will do it on its own initiative."
Hyperion clenched her fists and assured Lanci.
As a priestess, for the sake of justice, even if she has to temporarily trade with the Resurrection Church, the goddess will definitely understand her.
Confirming Hyperion's attitude, Lanci looked at Sigrid.
Regarding the prison break, the two of them need to ask Hyperion to go to the prison in person, which is very dangerous, so it is possible that they will let Hyperion suffer.
But Sigrid obviously didn't want to owe the Church of Fate a favor.
She will definitely give more compensation.
"Let me tell you what you want first."
Sigrid said to Hyperion.
She decided to listen to what Hyperion's demands were first, so that she could judge how to adjust the price that the Tyrant branch should pay.
Hyperion groaned.
She felt that since the Tyrant Branch was going to establish the Desolation Branch, it would definitely need strong combat power.
"If you give me some information about Helrom Prison, I can help you get a big demon to help you. This way, if you need to fight Asksan, your chances of winning will be better."
Hyperion proposed the deal.
She believed that her sincerity was great enough, and she only needed to obtain as much intelligence as possible to gain the help of an eighth-level demon at a critical moment.
This transaction is definitely not a loss for the other party.
but.
Lanqi and Sigrid looked at each other, and both of them had very strange expressions.
Gradually, Sigrid became extremely embarrassed and lowered her head.
"Can't you?"
Hyperion asked.
"..."
Lanqi now doesn't know how to start.
He remembered these two people. One of them swore in the name of the goddess not to talk about any personal feelings, and the other said that he would show them who was the boss in this family.
In the end, everyone was arguing about the same thing, but they were actually doing the same thing.
"We are also going to jailbreak."
Gloria added hastily.
Suddenly, Hyperion seemed to understand Sigrid's expression at the moment, and her cheeks began to turn red.
The living room was eerily quiet.
Both of them felt a little socially dead.

Chapter 386: Lanqi always exceeds the task
Sitting on the sofa in the mansion's living room late at night, their faces should have appeared particularly serious and calm.
But as the embarrassing question was revealed, the last words echoed in the room and dissipated, all eyes crossed each other, and then quickly dodged to avoid direct gaze, followed by a sudden silence.
"..."
Lanci stood beside the magic projection crystal screen on one side of the room. He had originally planned to continue talking about the transaction, but now because of Sigrid and Hyperion's condition, he had to stop temporarily.
In the short term, no one is willing to break this situation, and no one is willing to speak up first.
Perhaps Sigrid and Hyperion needed some time to slow down. Even the antique clock on the wall seemed to slow down its rhythm, and the ticking sound was unusually abrupt in the silence.
Previously, both of them had spoken too absolutely when they were angry.
Now they have to form a partnership, which makes them all lose face.
"throat."
Lanqi coughed lightly, trying to cover up the unbearable embarrassment with a new topic.
"So the goal of the Church of the Goddess of Destiny is to rescue the Great Demons and make them join the Kingdom of Aethertalan?"
Lanci looked at Hyperion for confirmation and asked.
"……Yes."
Hyperion would never have let the Resurrection Church know about her actions, but unexpectedly, the Tyrant Branch of the Resurrection Church surprisingly reached a consensus with the Church of the Goddess of Fate in order to deal with the Nirvana Branch.
If everyone wants to rescue the big demon, then things will become simple again.
"It seems that our motives are similar. We also don't want the Protoss Empire to go to war with the countries in the northwest. Only the Silent Branch and its backers want the war to spread. In addition to rescuing the great demons in Helrom Prison, the Church of the Goddess of Fate will probably have to continue to cooperate with the Tyrant Branch to try to put an end to this turmoil."
Lanqi spoke slowly.
Sigrid said nothing. If she could become the person in charge of the Resurrection Church in the Protoss Empire, she would naturally hope that the Protoss Empire would not be damaged by the war.
If cooperating with the Church of the Goddess of Destiny could achieve greater benefits, she would choose it without hesitation.
"I will help you connect with the Church of the Goddess of Destiny."
Hyperion said with difficulty.
She didn't know whether the world was too absurd and that the Church of the Resurrection and the Church of the Goddess of Destiny would be able to cooperate one day. The only thing she was sure of was that what she did was right and she had not let her teacher down.
Hyperion never dreamed that—
The single-player hell-difficulty mission in the imperial capital Helrom has become a super-large team mission.
It actually requires the assistance of an entire branch of the Resurrection Church.
Every step was different from what the Ice Witch teacher predicted.
The Ice Witch told her that this imperial training was an assessment of her priesthood. Under normal circumstances, the church would not give a new priest such a difficult task, but Hyperion's task had indeed reached the difficulty required to determine the candidates for high-level priesthood in the church.
As long as Hyperion can complete it, under the divine prayer ceremony, her contribution will surely enable her to be promoted to a high-level priesthood. Not only will the church token be upgraded, but her own faith attributes will also be greatly enhanced by the higher-grade church certificate. If she wants to engrave the priest rank after breaking through the seventh level, the token of the Church of the Goddess of Destiny can also be used as an excellent material.
Hyperion's biggest dream is to become a noble priest recognized by everyone. Now an opportunity is right in front of her. She knows very well that the difficulty and reward are equal, and she has already prepared herself mentally.
but.
At present, it seems that she was sent to the Protos Empire, and spent seven days comfortably in Milford Territory. On the way, the Silent Branch was inexplicably dispersed, and she arrived at the Protos Royal Magic Academy which had been controlled. She did not need to compete with the top young talents of the Protos Empire. Then, the Tyrant Branch would help her complete the final prison break plan!
