Soul echo

Chapter 498
After killing the false god who was sublimated from cult members, Zhong Ye did not leave here immediately.

He walked towards the location of the church just now. Although the church had been split in half by him and affected by the battle just now, some parts remained intact.

A straight line of sunlight extended from the door to the interior, crossed the corpse of the God of Conspiracy, and divided the entire church into two.

What surprised Zhong Ye was that even though the church had been split in half and even the stone statue with only the torso was broken, the corpse sitting on the stone chair was fine.

"The God of Conspiracy...is he really dead?"

Standing in front of the corpse, Zhong Ye frowned.

Whether it was just now or now, he didn't feel any vitality from the corpse, and he didn't have any feeling of 'alive'.

In his opinion, the God of Conspiracy should be dead.

But if this is the case, then what happened to the blessing he just received?

Although without that blessing, he could kill the false god before, but he couldn't do it so quickly.

In the final analysis, he is just a mortal, at most he is a little stronger in melee combat, has a strong mental will, and can absorb energy damage, and he will still be affected by the power of the gods.

If it is an orthodox god, with their indestructible characteristics, even if they don't use their authority and divine power, they can kill him with wounds in exchange for wounds.

It's a pity that the three 'gods' level enemies he encountered were all false gods.

Adrian was strong enough, but at the end of the battle, he committed suicide in order not to let his body be taken away by the evil god.

So far, Zhong Ye has not encountered any genuine gods, and that is not something he can deal with.

Therefore, he didn't know much about the special existence of 'gods', and he didn't know whether the God of Conspiracy had completely died.

Zhong Ye tried to call the gods, but unfortunately, he didn't get a response.

Looking at the unscathed corpse, he scratched his hair in distress, then sighed, Zhong Ye reached out to grab the corpse and carried it to his shoulder.

Corpses can also 'talk'. Even if the corpses of gods cannot be awakened by necromancy, many things can be found from the traces on the corpses.

But now it should be a long time since the death of the God of Conspiracy, at least eight years, otherwise the cultist would not seek to become a god.

It took much longer to return to Brunswick than when he came here, because Zhong Ye was no longer in a hurry as before and did not run.

It took almost an hour and a half before Zhong Ye carried the body back to Brunswick.

His image of carrying a corpse is really hard to compliment, even though the gate he entered the city was the gate where he fought the magician before, the guards knew him, but seeing him walking into the city with a corpse on his shoulders, Can't help but feel apprehensive.

After entering the city, more and more people noticed Zhong Ye, but most of them only dared to look at it once, and didn't dare to look again.

The adult with the child hastily raised his hand to cover the child's curious gaze, and he also avoided his gaze to avoid being noticed by the 'murderer'.

Zhong Ye carried the shriveled corpse through half of the city and entered the church.

He noticed that when entering the church, the statue of the church did not respond to the body on his shoulders.

The statue's 'repelling evil' is a permanent effect. If the corpse is still 'evil', the statue will definitely respond to it. If there is no response now, it means that either this corpse is not the corpse of the God of Conspiracy, or That this corpse is a real corpse.

——Even if a person committed a lot of evil in his life, no one can say that his corpse is evil. After all, it is just a pile of meat. The real evil thing is the soul and consciousness of the wicked person.

"Your Excellency, you are back!"

The clergy in the church, no matter they were apprentices or official priests, they all knew Zhong Ye, and when they saw Zhong Ye came back here, they hurriedly saluted.

However, even among the clergy, there were many people who didn't know why Zhong Ye left Brunswick, so they couldn't help feeling puzzled when they saw a corpse on his shoulder.

After all, the chapel is a sacred place, and it would be a little... impolite to bring a shriveled corpse in.

Zhong Ye nodded to the greeting clergyman, carried the corpse and walked straight to the back of the chapel, and said as he walked, "If nothing else happens, this is the corpse of the God of Conspiracy."

The cleric who followed Zhong Ye and was about to obey his orders immediately froze in place when he heard these words, looking at Zhong Ye's back, speechless.

After a while, she shuddered, hurriedly followed, and asked eagerly, "Your Excellency, are you sure?"

Zhong Ye shook his head, and said truthfully: "I'm not sure, it's just a guess. The reason I brought this corpse back is for you to help test it."

"Then, then I will inform the bishop and them now!"

The priest stamped his feet and ran away in a panic.

The corpse of a god, especially this corpse may also be an evil god wanted by the gods, how can this make the clergy not feel excited and flustered?

Zhong Ye brought the body to the room where the meeting was held before. The door was unlocked, and he opened it with a light push.

He went in, laid the body flat on the table top, and pulled a chair, waiting for the bishop and the others to arrive.

Not long after, there was a rush of footsteps in the corridor. Zhong Ye turned his head and saw the bishop of the Church of the Sun in Brunswick running in from the door.

The bishop and Zhong Ye exchanged glances, and then their eyes shifted to the shriveled corpse on the table.

Deng Deng Deng!
The bishop went to the table and looked down at the corpse carefully.

Other clergymen also gathered around. A corpse of a god was indeed very tempting to them.

"Are you sure this is the corpse of the God of Conspiracy?"

Zhong Ye got up quietly at some point, came to the table, and asked questions abruptly.

The bishop took a deep breath, raised his hand and cast a magic spell, but the magic spell landed on the corpse and had no effect.

Seeing this reaction, the bishop said with a complex expression: "At least I can be sure that this is indeed the corpse of a god."

Any divine spell is ineffective against gods, no matter whether that god is recognized as an evil god or not, no matter whether that god is alive or not.

Only after praying to the gods and obtaining the permission of the gods of one's own belief, can the power of the gods appear in the magic spell and can harm the gods.

Therefore, in order to confirm the specific identity of the corpse, the bishop and a group of priests took out several scrolls, spread them around the corpse, and then began to pray to the sun god, imploring the supreme light to descend its power.

Listening to their prayers over and over again, Zhong Ye suddenly had the illusion of 'are they making harassing calls'.

After the seventh prayer of many clergymen, the scrolls spread out on the table gave off a bit of warm sunlight.

The priests cheered up because of this, if they hadn't restrained themselves, they might have started dancing.

When the radiance dissipated, a large section of text was printed on the unfolded blank scroll.

"This is the previous God of Conspiracy..."

The bishop took a closer look, frowning slightly.

Looking at the information on the scroll, Zhong Ye suddenly said, "Does the Church of Knowledge keep any books related to the God of Conspiracy?"

"This……"

The priests looked at each other, of course they knew what Zhong Ye wanted to do.

However, if you really want to confirm further, wouldn't you be questioning the authority of the Supreme Light?
The bishop also hesitated for a moment, then closed his eyes and sighed: "If you... really want to confirm again, we can provide you with a communication channel, but we won't do it for you."

"Yes." Zhong Ye was not surprised by this result.

The feeling farthest from understanding is 'worship'. As devout believers of the Sun God, they sincerely do not want to deny this result.

However, the face of the statue that Zhong Ye saw in that church was clearly the corpse that was placed on the table today.

But... who can guarantee that the God of Conspiracy of the previous generation cannot have his own church preserved?

The priests of the Church of the Sun helped Zhong Ye connect to the Church of Knowledge, and Zhong Ye explained his request. About half an hour later, he got a copy of a painting.

What is depicted in the painting is the statue of the God of Conspiracy that the gods have always wanted and hunted down. After Zhong Ye compared the painting with the corpse, the priests dared to admit that the identity of this corpse was the original conspiracy. God!

"The God of Conspiracy has been dead for at least eight years, so in the past eight years, the divine power of the God of Conspiracy that the cultist used to cover up his actions when he did evil is probably taken from the God of Conspiracy..."

Zhong Ye couldn't help thinking of himself, he seemed to be in the same situation.

——In Belgrade, he obtained part of the power of Oneiroi, and he has been using it all the time.

However, this corpse has been appointed by the sun god as the "god of conspiracy of the previous generation", which shows that it was not this corpse that gave him the blessing before.

And that cultist couldn't possibly be the god of conspiracy...

"—Besides this circle, is there a 'hidden person' who is watching secretly?"
