Chapter 225 We got one


Chapter 225 One of us fell into the trap...

After completing the racial sublimation of "Ember Wolf King" Fenrir and "Shadow Raven" Wuye, Luo Xiu then summoned them and confirmed the panel a second time.

After everything was correct, Luo Xiu recalled the wolf and raven with satisfaction, and easily lifted the barrier of the Great Sacrifice's residence.

At the same time, he followed the fine tradition of his previous life and opened doors and windows for ventilation.

The deep yellow sky light drifted through the gap between the trees and shone in from the window of the residence. It filled the shadows in the church and dispelled the original darkness in the residence.

Luo Xiu's vision was restored to brightness, and he felt a little warmth at the same time.

At this time, the sky outside was getting dark and it was already evening.

Shortly after Luo Xiu lifted the barrier of his residence, he received an entry request from Anthony outside his residence.

Luo Xiu then tidied up the room and arranged his clothes, then went down to the residence level to meet Anthony.

Ten minutes ago, Anthony had arrived at the door of the high priest's residence.

When he first came to the residence, he was blocked from entering by the opened barrier.

It was the strongest golden barrier that refused all visits, so Anthony did not disturb it, but waited quietly.

And Anthony didn't wait too long. The barrier was lifted on its own and turned into a gentler and more restrained light gold barrier, indicating that visitors could enter after being allowed to enter.

Anthony then came to the tower of the "Medium of the Enchantment" and poured the spirit of the invitation into the tower, and he quickly received permission.

He quickly entered the residence and looked up to see Luo Xiu, the "host of the ceremony", just walking down the connecting steps.

"It's already evening, Anthony."

Luo Xiu nodded to Anthony and said with a smile: "You come to me at this time, does it mean that the matter has changed?"

"Yes." Anthony nodded and said, "'Priest of Death' Asvis, he left the stronghold."

After Luo Xiu killed "Death Teller" Gray, he secretly gave Anthony a task - to monitor the movements of "Death Priest" Aswes.

He was the "recipient" of the letter written by the "Death Teller" Grain, and it was through that letter that he was able to locate Grain's hiding place. Although this letter is suspected to have been secretly provided by the [Supreme], Luo Xiu is also wary of revenge from his [Lost] colleagues, the most dangerous of which is the "Death Priest" Asvis.

But within a week, Luo Xiu, who was busy with his affairs, had no time to deal with the "Death Priest" personally. Luo Xiu, who had just killed the "Death Teller", temporarily believed that there was no need to deal with similar enemies one after another with too much fanfare, and that some space should be left for the [Supreme] and [Intelligence] extraordinary beings stationed in Red Maple City.

Therefore, Luo Xiu just asked Anthony to monitor "Death Priest" Aswes, and report any abnormalities to him in a timely manner.

According to the news reported regularly by Anthony and Pamier, Aswis is indeed in the large stronghold on Rust Street. But he always kept a low profile and stayed dormant in the stronghold, usually never leaving the stronghold for even a step.

This "Death Priest" Aswes seems to be avoiding the storm caused by the death of "Death Teller" Grayn. The [Lost] heretics in the city are now at a disadvantage, and they dare not act rashly.

"He had been dormant until the night before, when he suddenly left the 'Secret Prayer of Death' stronghold alone and went in the direction of the mansion." Anthony said to Luo Xiu.

...mansion? The city lord's residence? Do they want to lower their head against Nelson City Lord again? Luo Xiu was thinking divergently, and then heard Anthony continue:

"…Then, he passed the mansion and headed towards the 'Bianting'."

Captain Anthony...can you please stop gasping like this next time you speak... Luo Xiu complained in his heart, but the doubts about Asvis' whereabouts became more and more intense in his heart, and he couldn't understand what he wanted to do.

"You mean 'side court'? [Supreme]'s 'side court' stationed in Red Maple City?"

Luo Xiu asked in a confirming tone, "Are you sure where 'Death Priest' Asvis went?"

"Well, he did go to the side court." Anthony replied affirmatively, "I personally tracked and monitored him. Although he has a 'fourth destiny', he couldn't find me just by monitoring. "

"Asvis went directly to the side court and showed what to the guard knights at the entrance of the side court. I didn't see clearly. But after that, the guard knights let him pass. Aswith So we entered the side courtyard.”

Anthony paused and then said, "After that, the main entrance of the side court was closed, and the number of guard knights on duty was also increased from two to six. They seemed to have temporarily entered a state of martial law." "Well... ..." Luo Xiu nodded, looking thoughtful.

He has probably guessed the true background of "Priest of Death" Asvis.

Like "Night Witch" Niaf, he is a [lost] transcendent who has taken refuge in the [Supreme]? It's just that Niaf took refuge openly, while Aswiss was almost undercover... It's no wonder that the [Supreme] people in the "side court" were able to get the letter...

Luo Xiu felt that he was gradually understanding everything, and after learning that Aswes was actually the second fifth generation, he also had some new judgments on how to "deal with" him.

"Yeah, Anthony, I get it."

Luo Xiu then nodded and said, "You have done a good job. I have indeed obtained the information I need. Hmm... 'Priest of Death' Aswes, may have secretly surrendered to the [Supreme]? This is indeed very important. intelligence."

"The mission for you is over, Anthony. We no longer need to monitor Asvis's movements. Since he already belongs to the [Supreme], the threat to us is not great."

Luo Xiu said this, and Anthony nodded, indicating that he had taken note of what Luo Xiu said.

Luo Xiu's words were only meant for Anthony. He actually had other thoughts in his heart.

"Then the Holy Inquisition will resume its independent operations, Luo Xiu. We are also short of manpower."

Anthony said, "If there is no need to worry about the possible threat to us from the 'Priest of Death' Asvis, the Holy Inquisition can also reduce a lot of pressure and allocate manpower to 'adjudicate' other proven heretics."

This is good news for Anthony and the Holy Inquisition.

Afterwards, Luo Xiu and Anthony talked about other things about the church, and Anthony said goodbye to Luo Xiu and left.

And when Anthony left, Luo Xiu's eyes quickly returned to deepness, and the expression on his face became indifferent and deep, and he began to think deeply about the "Death Priest" Asvis discussed previously.

For Luo Xiu, even if Asweis really declares "loyalty" to Bianting, Luo Xiu cannot trust him.

Although the [Supreme] holds the power of control, the person in charge of the "Side Court" is only a judge of the fourth level of destiny. He wants to make the heretics his own fighting force, and he is prone to backlash because of this.

From this perspective, Luo Xiu also believes in his "crazy piety".

And the "Bianting" is not a truly reliable ally. After all, judging from the history of the [Glory] Holy Court in the Nolan Empire, [Supreme] may be backstabbed at any time.

[Supreme] and [Glory], "Bianting" and "Wartime Church" only temporarily have the same interests, so they stand on a unified front. Luo Xiu knows this very well.

For these reasons, Luo Xiu cannot tolerate unstable factors like "Priest of Death" Asvis being controlled by the "side court" - the "Grand Inquisitor" Baines is prone to playing with fire and self-immolation. Secondly, once he overturns, It is also easy to draw fire to their church...

"..."

Luo Xiu paced back and forth in his residence, having these complex thoughts in his mind at the same time.

Until the end, Luo Xiu came to the only conclusion that was the most stable and beneficial to him.

——"Crazy piety".

——The only solution is "crazy piety".

Let "Death Priest" Asvis also become his "crazy believer".

Only in this way can we truly solve the hidden dangers and gain the dual vision of [Supreme] and [Lost] at the same time!

And the "Holy Abyss" in Red Maple City also happens to lack an apostle of the "fourth level of destiny" to be its trump card.

In the bottom of Luo Xiu's heart, he made this decision.
