A gentle buzzing sound suddenly ca through.
She imdiately stopped her thoughts of speaking, listened carefully for a mont, then her expression changed drastically, and she said urgently, "The East Coast... sothing happened over there."
"I know..."
The man with the horse face finally ca to his senses, shaking his head.
"No."
The female elder directly interrupted, "You should check out the black market, not just a bunch of invaders were captured."
"..."
The man with the horse face looked a bit suspicious, then took the disposable phone handed to him by the female elder, looked at the screen, and then his pupils suddenly shrank.
It’s not just Ise Jingu, Mujin New Church’s Empowerer...
Also, a Holy Coffin Knight from the Roman Catholic Church, a Level 1 Officer from the Inquisition were captured... or more accurately, only a Holy Coffin Knight was captured because the latter was directly exposed.
Spring of Faith... the process... Celestial Strategy Mansion plans to file a lawsuit...
The man with the horse face looked at the detailed arrest list thrown out by the intelligence broker who was vaguely becoming the leader in the black market, looked at the roughly described process, and suddenly rembered the words Hecate had spoken with conviction before leaving, about surprises, sincerity, and limited patience.
Then he looked again at the words Spring of Faith, and at the description of ’the other party trying to act separately, using the main force to delay,’ the unnecessary thoughts that had just arisen... instantly disappeared.
Surprise?
Sincerity?
Such sincerity and surprise?
He slowly put down the phone, then said expressionlessly, "The damn beggar is showing off in the ’Self’."
Female elder: "..."
...
At the sa ti.
Hecate sat up from the bed, took a sip of water, then walked to the door and pushed it open.
The sea breeze, carrying a slight fishy and salty sll, blew in, and he looked past the busy military base, towards the far distant coastline, frowning slightly.
This ti he went to the ’Self’ to display power, but unexpectedly received news of the total annihilation of the main force, which indeed caught him off guard.
But she had just adjusted her mindset and, to be honest... this really wasn’t a bad thing.
At this mont, Hank Machado and Igri Saba should have already infiltrated the inside, and since they were nominally captured along with the main force, it was equivalent to these two no longer existing.
In this situation... there would be more things that could be done!
The blessing in disguise.
This was far from a bad thing.
Hecate stood at the door, starting to think about how to maximize the benefits.
But suddenly.
Bam—
The door in front of him closed on its own without any wind.
Directly isolating her inside the room.
Hecate paused slightly and imdiately turned around.
At the sa ti.
A ray of sacred light suddenly descended from the void, falling right in front of Hecate.
Hecate’s expression changed slightly, her face imdiately showing a devout expression, bowing respectfully, "His Holiness the Pope."
"...Do not let the Church’s dignity be damaged."
A majestic voice echoed, reverberating in the small room.
Hecate was sowhat at a loss, but still respectfully said, "I will follow the holy will."
But her words received no response, and that ray of sacred light remained in front of her.
A long ti later.
The voice spoke again, saying the sa thing: "Do not let the Church’s dignity be damaged."
Then.
That ray of sacred light finally dissipated completely.
Hecate maintained her bowing posture, even though her heart was in turmoil, she still maintained a devout expression.
Until the sacred light completely vanished, her face showed a change for the first ti.
Clearly.
The Pope had just expressed dissatisfaction, and during the Pope’s brief silence, she even felt fear... which was already more than just expressing dissatisfaction!
Sothing was off!
Very off!
Because the news of the entire main force being captured got out?
But most of the Church’s advanced combat power, especially the Holy Coffin Knight, His Holiness the Pope should be able to sense them, He should be well aware that only Spring of Faith was captured...
Hecate stood there, becoming more puzzled the more she thought, and her expression grew uglier.
Then, she suddenly rembered... the black market ntioned by the man with the horse face.
She quickly opened the door and then asked soone to bring her a laptop.
And soon.
She saw what the man with the horse face had seen not long ago...
The detailed list of those captured, the entire arrest process described by the intelligence broker.
When she saw that Spring of Faith and the main body were ambushed separately but captured one after the other, and that Celestial Strategy Mansion even planned to prosecute these people... prosecute a Holy Coffin Knight of the Roman Catholic Church.
Hecate finally understood where the Pope’s dissatisfaction ca from.
Preparing to prosecute a Holy Coffin Knight of the Roman Catholic Church!
This was a complete slap in the face... and it was done in front of all the Empowerers in the world!
"..."
Hecate looked at the screen and was stunned.
She then thought of the confident words she had just said in front of the man with the horse face, her expression changing quickly... alternating between blue and white.
At the sa ti.
The black market was not the general group of Celestial Strategy Mansion.
As Hecate guessed... everyone thought that capturing a Holy Coffin Knight alive was one thing, but even suing him, this was indeed a slap in the face to the Roman Catholic Church.
So when the intelligence broker threw out such explosive news, everyone knew.
...Big amusent is coming.
