Chapter 360: A show of kindness? Tang Zheng’s leadership
There was a "click".

The door closed and Remedios left with different attitudes.

"Peachy" Isadro remained skeptical from beginning to end. He did not believe what Tang Zheng said and was more of a wary person.

"Remedios is indeed easier to fool, although in reality this is not a trick."

Tang Zheng was not surprised that the people from the Holy Kingdom did not make a decision in the end.

"Speaking of which, this woman Remedios seems to have a special attitude towards me?"

"Is it because you saved their lives during the hill incident?" Tang Zheng was slightly surprised.

"Forget it. Regardless of whether the Holy Kingdom agrees or not, we have no choice now."

Tang Zheng pondered for a moment, looking at the hall which had become quiet again. The floor was paved with brown wooden boards, illuminated by the bright "sustainable light".

Bookshelves, furniture and corners will be darker.

"Since the person has left, would you like to sit down and have a cup of tea together?"

Tang Zheng picked up an empty white porcelain cup, poured warm amber black tea from the spout, and spoke with a smile.

There was no response from the room.

"Since you're not coming out, forget it."

Tang Zheng shook his head and didn't care: "Tell your chief priest for me that if you want to "integrate the potion", then we can have a good talk."

"But this time we will include people from the Holy Kingdom."

Take the initiative!

Naturally, we cannot let the tempo fall into the hands of the Theocracy. Instead of waiting until the Theocracy is ready and the people of the Holy Kingdom are scared away, it is better to take the initiative.

"It is indeed troublesome to come into contact with the forces of such a country without revealing our strength."

Tang Zheng complained in his heart.

Time passed little by little.

Tang Zheng was lazily leaning on the sofa, flipping through the books that the Church had deliberately placed on the bookshelf in the room.

Call ~
A light breeze blew past the window at the beginning.

Tang Zheng paused while flipping through the pages of the book. "He left. This member of the Holy Scripture should be here to monitor and prevent the information about Juesi Jueming from being leaked to the Holy Kingdom."

"'Heaven and Earth'? Haha... what a big name."

hum-

『Skill points: 137→136』

…………

Skills: Ninjutsu·Hide
Consumption: 5Mp～? Mp (the more mana consumed, the better the effect)
Introduction: After activating the skill, you will eliminate your own aura and fall into an invisible stealth state. Once an attack is launched, it will be automatically released.

…………

"It's a good skill, much stronger than the "invisibility" in the rank magic. I just don't know if the skill of [Ninja] can be stronger than the "complete invisibility" in magic?"

An unexpected skill gain.

Tang Zheng's unhappy mood during this period finally eased a little.

Most of the skills in the [Ninja] system can increase their power according to the amount of magic power consumed, and are not inferior to some tiered magic.

This is also the advantage of the thief system profession.

——The month of stroke.

May 15th.

After two days of silence, the Church finally made some moves.

A conference hall located deep within the Theocracy.

The hall is paved entirely with white tiles and floors. There are six large glass windows around the hall, and the light coming in is projected onto six areas.

The entire conference hall was filled with solemnity and sacredness.

There is also an invisible oppression and a sense of inviolability!
There is not a trace of dirt or dust.

It was clean enough to reflect the dark brown conference table and the six reflections sitting on it.

These six!
He is a great figure who stands at the top of the Silan Theocracy, with a population of over 15 million.

Unlike usual times when six people gathered together and held a meeting, they were serious.

The atmosphere is quite relaxed at the moment.

“Justice Chief Gulide… what a pity.” As the only female among the chief priests, the Fire Priest Benice sighed softly, a trace of sadness flashing across her plump cheeks.

A brief moment of silence.

"His contributions will be remembered by the Congress."

The round-framed glasses of Dark Priest Maximilian reflected a little light, and he spoke quietly and calmly.

The death of Attorney General Gulide not only took on the responsibility for the baby's crime, but his greatest contribution was that he provided reasonable reasons to restrain Captain Tang and the people of the Holy Kingdom.

The Holy Kingdom is fine.

The medicine that Team Leader Tang was researching was so important that, unless it was absolutely necessary, they did not want to use a tough attitude and create a rift with such an outstanding talent.

“Thank God that we humans are still alive today!”

The chief water priest Xineding prayed quietly.

"So, enough serious talk."

The chief priest of light, Ion, has long eyes and bony cheeks, and gives people a sinister feeling when he speaks:
"Let's have a conversation first, and we'll discuss the matter later."

"Team Leader Tang took the initiative to ask for a discussion about the medicine. I think he has already made his choice. We are just making corresponding promises."

"Yes, with such an excellent alchemist, he should be able to develop more useful potions in the future."

"What about the Holy Kingdom?"

"How dare a mere Holy Kingdom interfere in this matter!"

"That Miss Remedios... well, I have no way of judging, but Izadro is a smart man and knows what choice to make."

"Haha, this Tang Linghui wants to borrow the power of the Holy Kingdom."

"How can an adventurer understand that communication at the national level is not as simple as dealing with a few monsters and completing a few tasks?"

“…….

As the six chief priests began to discuss, they all looked very relaxed, believing that the outcome was already determined.

After seeing the power of the gods and the attitudes they showed, as long as Team Leader Tang is a smart man, he will know what to choose.

Suddenly.

"They are coming." Dominic, the chief officer of the God of Wind, said lightly.

The discussion stopped.

Six pairs of eyes, some calm, some gentle, some sharp, and some indifferent, looked quietly towards the direction of the conference door.

woo-

A strong wind pressure sounded as the door opened.

There was a "clang" sound.

The friction caused by the metal fittings on both sides of the door.

A palpable stream of light streamed from the hall.

I just walked through a long corridor, and the sudden bright light makes people subconsciously close their eyes.

however.

Tang Zheng and "Pink" Izadro were not affected by the glaring light at all.

The first thing that caught their eyes!
There are six towering glass windows, and the bright light shining through makes the conference room covered with white tiles look transparent.

The figures of the six chief priests are full of majesty and oppression!
The loose white cuffs sway slightly.

"What an honor."

Tang Zheng was not affected by the invisible oppression at all. He easily caught the expressions of the six chief priests and stepped into the hall with a smile:
"I was able to meet all the head priests at once. I thought I was only meeting the two from before."

The disrespectful voice echoed, breaking the sacred and solemn atmosphere. Several head priests frowned slightly.

Some of the chief priests were quite dissatisfied with this disrespectful behavior, but when they thought about the other party's weak struggle, it was not an exaggeration to express their dissatisfaction.

Izadro had a blank expression on his face.

But from the slightly tense neck, it can be seen that the other party is not as relaxed as imagined.

“It’s a real headache.”

"Peachy," Izadro thought to himself.

He didn't want to attend this so-called meeting!

Or it could be said that he had already planned to cut ties with Captain Tang on behalf of the Holy Kingdom, but faced with the invitation from the Theocracy, he had no choice but to attend this meeting whose outcome was doomed.

When the six chief priests saw that the Holy Kingdom had only sent out Pink Izadro, a smile appeared on their faces.

This is enough to show that the Holy Kingdom has given up supporting Leader Tang.

tread!
tread!
Tang Zheng and his companion walked on smooth white stone slabs. Every step they took made a crisp reverberation, and their shadows became longer and longer as they got closer to the light.

--However.

As they got closer to the conference table, their shadows began to shrink rapidly under the illumination of six tall glass windows.

In the end, only a shallow mark remained on the sole of the foot.

It was as if nothing dark should exist in this sacred room.

Tang Zheng and the other man sat down.

The atmosphere in the room became quiet.

"Peach Color" Isadro lowered his eyes and maintained an aristocratic demeanor as he sat on the parliamentary bench with pointed arches and reliefs on the back of the chair.

He knew very well that he was here just to make up the numbers, and he had no intention of speaking.

"Captain Tang..." Chief Water Priest Xineding spoke first in a gentle voice.

The two parties had had contact before, so it was most appropriate for him to open the topic.

"First of all, let me make one thing clear."

Tang Zheng interrupted the other party and said, "I will never allow any baby to be used as integration material."

The chief water priest Xineding swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. He was not angry about being interrupted, but he did not expect Tang Zheng to be so direct.

“This matter is our responsibility.”

"Justice Chief Gulide is also because of this... Well, anyway, Captain Tang, if you have any ideas, just speak up."

The chief priest of fire, Benice, showed a look of grief, but she spoke softly and kindly, acting like a loving mother.

The other chief priests all nodded, their attitudes were friendlier than expected.

Actually.

No one cared about the babies being used as experimental subjects, but since the team leader Tang in front of them cared, they naturally had to act as if they cared.

As for what to do next?
They would not obey the orders of a mere adventurer.

Seeing these chief priests appear to be easy to talk to.

"Everyone, I feel relieved."

Tang Zheng let out an inexplicable chuckle.

He could clearly feel that these chief priests were "tolerant" from the bottom of their hearts, and because of this, he could also be more aware of their arrogance.

It's like a strong person with absolute advantage, patiently listening to the whispered requests of a weak person.

A word emerged in Tang Zhenghai's mind - benevolent performance!
"Speak of it."

"I was inevitably a bit arrogant towards the weak, too."

Facing the six gentle faces, Tang Zheng also showed a sincere smile on his cheek:
"Thank you to everyone in the Church for your support in my research on the "Fusion Potion"."

"I didn't expect that the potion I developed by accident would have such a powerful effect. Lord Justice Gulide, please give me the next map."

"It was not until I saw the map that I finally understood the crisis and situation that humanity was in. If I can help increase humanity's strength, I will naturally do my best."

Tang Zheng sighed deeply.

Hearing this,

The smiles on the faces of the six head priests widened.

"As far as I know, the seventh-level magic is already a power that can be used by the "Demon God"."

Tang Zheng leaned forward, resting his arms on the table:
"But it cannot be performed by the power of a single human being... By the way, the gentleman holding a strange weapon like a cross spear should be a warrior, right?"

"So, if you in the Theocracy want to summon the highest-level angels, the only way is to use a method called the 'Great Ritual'."

The smiles on the faces of the six chief priests disappeared a little. They did not expect Tang Zheng to mention the ultimate death in this situation.

Also.

There didn't seem to be the expected fear in the other party's words, and the information he said made it difficult to guess what he wanted to express.

"As a summoner, I also know that without a specialized professional structure, any summoner can only summon one monster at a time."

Tang Zheng's smile widened:
"The fusion potion can indeed make the monster exist longer, but it will also occupy the summoner's monster summoning quota."

The atmosphere became a little quiet.

The six chief priests' faces did not change much, except for "Pink" Izadro, who was stunned for a moment, as if he was thinking about something.

despair--

"This means that under normal circumstances, the actual effect of the potion may not be as useful as it appears."

Tang Zheng took his arms off the table, relaxed on the back of his chair, spread his palms and smiled:
"Well, I personally feel that this word is somewhat appropriate."

"After all, the advantage of a summoner is that if the summoned creature is destroyed, he can summon it again and continue to weaken the enemy's power."

"For an elite team like the Sunlight Scripture in the teaching country, there is no need to let long-lived summons occupy their own summoning quota."

"Because everyone can only summon one in the end."

"So--"

Tang Zheng's smile faded, and he became serious. He raised a finger and shook it: "The effect of the potion on higher-level angels is even more important."

"This is also what everyone in the Church values ​​most."

"However, due to the limitations of summoners, even with the power of the Great Ritual, I can only control one highest-level angel."

"Then... let me guess how to circumvent this problem."

Tang Zheng was sitting on the conference bench, pretending to think, and then he flicked his fingers:
"It must be the 'Magic Sealing Crystal' used by Lord Nigan during the Hill Incident. My knowledge is limited, so I have no way of evaluating how magic was injected into such an oversized item."

"But the basic method should be similar to that of making magic scrolls or magic items."

"First, use the Grand Ceremony to activate the seventh-level magic, and then use special means to inject the magic into the "Magic Sealing Crystal."

"This way we can circumvent the summoner's restrictions."

"It's just that there aren't many of these super-standard items in the Church, right?"

Tang Zheng spoke to the chief priests with a smile.

Regarding the "Demon Sealing Crystal", Tang Zheng actually knew the exact number. There were only four in the entire Theocracy, and now one was lost and was in his prop box.

There are only three left now. How did he know?

When he killed "Funny Brother", he extracted a lot of information about the inheritance of the six gods from him.

At this moment!

The expressions of the six chief priests gradually began to change.

Tang Zheng showed no intention of stopping, and continued with a smile: "Even if we can use a super-standard item like the Demon Sealing Crystal to summon more high-level angels."

"But what about people?"

"I happen to know a piece of information. The basic condition for launching the "Great Ritual" is that the core caster of the ritual must be at least a fifth-tier magic chanter."

"Only a hero-level magic caster can withstand the impact of the ritual, and to activate a 7th-level magic, the caster should be a 4th-level caster?"

"And the fourth-tier magic caster, using the Great Ritual - even if he doesn't die, he will be crippled."
