Chapter 1134 Sincerity Wins the Voice
Chapter 1134 Sincerity Wins the Voice
Skarsson was silent for a moment, then sat up from the stone box. He looked at his left arm and found that it had recovered.
It's just that he hasn't moved in these days, causing his muscles and alienated tissues to be a little loose and thin, but with his self-awareness, they became full and strong almost in the blink of an eye.
Chen Chuan knew that what he was most concerned about was the status of the investigation, so he said, "If my guess is correct, Mr. Skarsson, this time, you used yourself as bait?"
Skarsson did not hide his thoughts. He admitted, "Yes." He then said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Mr. Chen, for involving you this time."
Chen Chuanshuo said: "It doesn't matter. Maintaining the World Ring is also the common obligation of all countries in the world. But I want to remind Mr. Skarsson that the international investigation team still needs you. If you disappear, it will be a loss for the investigation team."
Skarsson said in a deep voice: "My power is not strong enough. All I can do is to increase the influence and let people with enough weight to promote and resolve this matter."
Chen Chuan nodded. Although he did not think this method was good enough, it was indeed an effective way to break the deadlock without international intervention.
"Your leader, Mr. Meteora, sent a telegram to me and your colleagues, saying that he would come in person if necessary. Mr. Skarsson, I can also inform you that the Dashun delegation will also support you this time."
After hearing this, Skarsson said solemnly: "Thank you."
Chen Chuan knew that this sentence was more of a thank you for his support in investigating the incident than a thank you for his rescue.
Because in his eyes, there must not be any more holes in the World Ring. As for whether he can be saved in the end, it is probably not even within his consideration.
He said, "This is not the place to talk, Mr. Skarsson, let's leave first."
Skarsson nodded and followed him out.
When he walked out of the palace, the dazzling light outside made him squint. It was not because of the sunlight, but because of the fire of truth floating there.
This thing is an unstable hidden danger to him, and it may become a help in communicating with certain existences on the other side. However, he also knows that as long as the New Light Church is not eliminated, even if this light is eliminated today, it will reappear in the future.
It was the long-term investigation that made him realize that he could only focus on one thing at a time. If he wanted to control everything, he would end up controlling nothing.
What he needed to solve now was the actions that tore open cracks in the wasteland and summoned the opposite existence. That was the biggest damage to the current security. So even though he thought this thing was very eye-catching, he remained silent and said nothing.
Chen Chuan said: "Mr. Skarsson, don't worry too much. I have found a witness for you this time. He was involved in the operation to arrest you. I hope he will be useful to you."
Skarsson was startled, then said again: "Thank you!"
As he and Chen Chuan gradually walked out along the road, they found the New Light Church members lying on the ground, as well as Samarruga, who had been tortured repeatedly but had not yet died.
He could tell at a glance that most of the alienated tissue in this person's body had disappeared, and there was no way he could survive. However, with the blessing of the surrounding rituals, he might be able to survive for another four or five days, or even longer.
Chen Chuan took a look and felt that he was in too much pain, so he spread out his palms. In an instant, another ray of light flashed, and there was another vibration on the top of the mountain. After the light and sound disappeared, the whole person disappeared without a trace.
Then the two short sticks floated up and appeared in front of him.
Although this weapon didn't play any role just now, it was left by a fighter who had fought with him, so he accepted it reluctantly.
At this moment, some core believers finally began to tremble after enduring the initial torment. Their impression was still on the moment when Chen Chuan and Samarruga fought. At this moment, they happened to see the scene of their final disinfecting. Many people showed a look of horror.
However, there were many fanatics among them. One of them shouted, "May the light of truth last forever!"
“May the light of truth live forever!”
As responses came one after another from the crowd, these people drew their weapons, stumbled forward, and tried to attack Chen Chuan.
However, before these people could run to Chen Chuan, a strong mental shock passed through the field. These people's eyes rolled back instantly and they fell to the ground in groups. Soon the place became quiet again.
Druyezi made a move and gave Chen Chuan a flattering smile, his intention to take the initiative to get closer was very obvious.
Chen Chuan glanced at him and said nothing.
The members of the investigation team saw Skarsson and Chen Chuan coming together, and they couldn't help showing surprise on their faces. The person in charge and other members hurried forward, surrounded him and said, "Captain, are you okay?"
Not only did Skarsson work seriously, he also used the money he didn't need to support his colleagues, so he was very popular among his subordinates.
At this moment, he looked at his colleagues who were looking at him with concern, and said, "I'm fine. I'm sorry to have made you worry." Chen Chuan saw several reconnaissance airships appear in the sky, and guessed that they were sent by the nearby garrison to check the situation. The Xinguang Sect was deeply involved with the military, so there was no guarantee that the military would not be dispatched after learning about the situation here.
He was not afraid of this, but there was no need to engage in direct conflict with the federal military, so he said, "No need to stay here. First, inform all parties of what happened here. If you have anything to say, you can go back and talk slowly."
Everyone in the investigation team nodded quickly, and after following the two people down the mountain, they discovered a strange sight: many tourists were holding up cameras and taking pictures of a bird, with excitement on their faces.
The bird spread out its arms and posed, then flew high up, gazing down at the crowd, as if enjoying their attention.
Skarsson immediately noticed the unusualness of the bird, but it had nothing to do with him, so he remained silent. However, Druzie looked at it in surprise and doubt.
Chen Chuan ignored it and took everyone directly into the vehicle they came in by and left.
After being active for a while, the robin suddenly became bored. It stared for a while, but this time it did not follow. Instead, its eyes rolled around, and suddenly it flapped its wings and flew away amid the regretful voices of everyone.
A day later, Pacifica Central City is the largest central city on the west coast except Victoria, and is also one of the core areas of the Federation.
The headquarters of the New Light Church is located in this central city and occupies a large area along the beach.
Across the beach stands the towering Sectarian Building, whose exterior walls are made entirely of white metal and glass, shining brightly in the sun. Its overall shape is like a huge torch, and on the top is a special crystal that shines brightly, symbolizing the light of truth. This is also one of the geographical coordinate symbols of Pacifica.
The building is surrounded by supporting buildings. In addition to religious activities, the New Light Sect has also developed a huge industry in this area. Almost all the commercial areas and major companies in the central city have investments and shares from the sect.
On the top floor of the building, Pope Eloise was flipping through the books collected by his predecessors. He was four meters tall, but his body proportions were almost perfect. He wore a silver mask on his face, revealing only a pair of golden eyes.
He was wearing a luxurious and elegant tasseled robe, and his pair of white and slender hands were holding an ancient scroll.
The sect's auxiliary officer was behind him reporting what had happened not long ago.
"After defeating the sect guardian Samaruga, Director Chen of Dashun found Skalson, a member of the international investigation team, in the underground palace of Sannoi.
We originally asked Samarruga to get rid of the person as soon as possible, but he probably wanted to wait until a suitable day for sacrifice, so he kept the person."
He spoke for a while, glanced at the Pope, and continued when he saw that he did not speak. "There is also a participant, Drujezi, who participated in the roundup of Skarsson. He is now on the side of the investigation team and is involved in testifying against us.
The international investigation team has sent us an inquiry telegram, asking us to explain this matter..." After a pause, he continued: "The Dashun delegation has also sent questions. We expect that in the next two days at the latest, major countries in the world will follow up..."
After he finished speaking, he waited for a while, and Pope Eloise finally spoke: "Is Samarruga dead?" In the empty hall, his voice was very elegant and pleasant.
"Yes." The assistant officer's tense nerves relaxed a little and said, "Yes, it has been confirmed."
"What is the plan in the sect?"
The assistant clerk said, "This was a private act of Samarruga. The sect can make some compensation for it, but the investigation team has many demands this time. They also want us to stop the sacrificial activities in various places."
Elose said nonchalantly, "Is that all?"
"Yes……"
"Then stop for now."
The ceremonial assistant tried to remind him, “Holy See, if we do this, it will have a great impact on the development of our church affairs in various places, and we also need…”
The Pope did not seem to care too much. "It won't be long. Their attention will soon be off us." He turned sideways and said meaningfully, "They cannot stop the truth from coming."
The assistant clerk probably understood what he said. It seemed that with the approach of the big bombardment, the opportunity that the sect had been waiting for for many years was coming, and since it was the decision of the Pope, they had to follow it unconditionally. So he bowed, drew a circle on his forehead, "Your will," and retreated respectfully.
Elose looked at the ancient scroll again and saw a map of star tracks on it, which seemed to be moving slowly.
