Infinite Throne

"So that's how it is."

Lin Yebai didn't care about Claire's loyalty. If it worked, it would be fine. If it didn't, he would just change it.

It must be said that Claire really gave him a surprise. It has a certain status in the Alchemy Society, and it is much easier for Lin Yebai to get in.

Lin Yebai reached out and picked an accessory from Claire's cloak. There was a crescent moon hanging on the silver chain, which blocked the connection between him and Claire.

"I'm very interested in this. Can you explain it?" Lin Yebai asked.

"My lord... This is a new type of metal I synthesized using alchemy. I'm trying it out recently to test its function."

"Really?" Lin Yebai's face showed a light smile, which seemed easy to talk to, but also strangely cold.

Claire knew that this young and powerful Son of God was not as clear and kind as he appeared to be, and he was not compassionate to all living beings. It carefully explained, choosing its words:

"This metal has a certain protective effect and also has an isolating effect. I will wear this metal during the alchemy process to prevent me from being affected by the outside world..."

In fact, this function is not completely effective. Sometimes the mind is greatly shocked and the alchemy experiment will still fail, such as Claire who heard that the Son of God was about to arrive.

Lin Yebai felt that the main function of this metal should be "isolation", but Claire was very guilty and did not elaborate on this point.

"Has it been named?" Lin Yebai asked.

"The temporary name is Moonlight." Claire had a strong desire to survive: "If you think it is not good, change it."

"The name is good, prepare a few tons for me, this will be used as a sample."

Lin Yebai directly confiscated the "Moonlight" worn by Claire. He did not need to know the function of "Moonlight" in detail, nor did he need to know how to make it.

The tool man would naturally prepare everything properly if Claire did not want to become a dead octopus.

"How many...how many tons???"

Claire's pupils trembled. Is this a quantifier used to describe "Moonlight"? It usually takes many experiments to get a few grams of finished products.

"Well, is there a problem?" Lin Yebai asked back.

"My lord, the raw materials are really scarce, and the success rate is not high. It is too difficult to get a few tons. The raw materials added together are not that much." Claire's tone was a little bleak.

"What are the raw materials?" Lin Yebai asked casually.

"Moonlight, Star Stone, Crystal of Faith..." The names Claire reported were all very precious materials.

"You solve it yourself, and try to provide as many finished products as possible, the more the better."

Lin Yebai did not mention a few tons, and Claire finally breathed a sigh of relief and responded: "Yes."

"I don't need subordinates who act on their own and are useless. Let me see your role."

"In addition, provide me with a detailed report from the Alchemy Association."

Lin Yebai glanced at Claire, and the big octopus trembled.

"My lord, don't worry, I will definitely perform well."

Claire no longer planned to escape. If this happened again, she would be dead if she was caught.

"By the way, my two disciples, you have met them before... and assigned them tasks, so I brought them here together."

"Yes." Lin Yebai played with the "Moonlight" and motioned Claire to leave.

Lin Yebai thought that Bishop Hoffman and Qian Shenghua had already met, so he followed Claire out one step later.

"Alex, are they all your people?" Bishop Hoffman frowned.

Now Claire has lost the function of "Moonlight" to cover up her breath, and Bishop Hoffman saw her origin at a glance.

They have dealt with each other many times. Claire likes to create chaos in Zijin Port, and Bishop Hoffman personally pursues her and never shows mercy.

Claire is good at creating avatars and is proficient in various escape techniques, so she was not killed by Bishop Hoffman. Claire's injuries have not healed yet, and it was because of the last time she was beaten by Bishop Hoffman.

"Yes." Lin Yebai nodded.

"If it doesn't work, just kill her." Bishop Hoffman has always hated Claire, and even worried that Claire would deceive Alex, who is not very experienced in the world.

"My Lord Bishop, I have turned over a new leaf now." Claire had basically determined her position and decided to improve her relationship with Bishop Hoffman.

"If you dare to deceive Alex or do something bad to him, I will kill you no matter where you are."

Bishop Hoffman's tone was indifferent, and he didn't take Claire seriously at all.

"Don't worry, I will never do that." Claire was extremely resentful in her heart. Even if I wanted to, I wouldn't dare!

Qian Shenghua and Soran stood aside obediently, not daring to say a word, watching Bishop Hoffman teach Claire a lesson, and countless speculations arose in their hearts.

[Love triangle? ]

[It shouldn't be, this should be called an ugly daughter-in-law meeting her parents-in-law]

[What does Claire look like? ]

[I don't know, maybe it's only for the Son of God. ]

[Don't say anything more, I'm going to burst! ]

"Let's go." Claire was unwilling to be inferior to Bishop Hoffman, but the Son of God seemed to value Bishop Hoffman more, so it could only endure it temporarily. When it produces enough "Moonlight", the Holy Son will pay attention to its role.

"Sir, don't be sad. As long as your heart is sincere, the Bishop will always accept you." On the way back, Qian Shenghua advised.

After all, everything goes well with the family, and for the sake of the children, Bishop Hoffman will always accept Claire one day. Even if we can't get together for the time being, there may be a situation in the future where "a single male mother was bullied with her little boy. In desperation, she wrote to that noble and holy man. The whole continent was boiling, and all the priests were dispatched. Finally, the juvenile version was found. Holy Son!”

Claire felt very comfortable being so comforted by her sweetheart. The tone was much gentler: "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Qian Shenghua asked curiously, "Sir, when did you and the Holy Son meet?"

"Not long ago." For Claire, that was not a good memory.

"Why do you two have intersections?" Qian Shenghua, as someone who has personally participated in CP meetings, naturally wanted to ask more questions when he got the opportunity.

"Because of an accident." Claire didn't want to think about it anymore.

"Which one of you took the initiative first?" Qian Shenghua continued to ask.

"...I took the initiative first." Claire always felt an indescribable weird feeling, but she couldn't describe it.

"I didn't expect you to be so brave, sir." Qian Shenghua couldn't help but marvel!

"..." Claire sighed and said no more. I always feel that what it says is a bit strange, and I can't capture the subtle feeling in detail. It's safer not to speak.

Sauron also felt it was a bit subtle, but couldn't tell. Except for Lin Yebai, everyone was in a very subtle mood.

"Alex, evil priests like Claire are full of lies and have no bottom line. It's okay to let it do things. You must learn to control it. If you find that it has a tendency to get out of control, you must destroy it in time."

When the two were alone, Bishop Hoffman taught patiently.

"I understand, don't worry." Of course Lin Yebai knew this truth. When he was strong enough, he no longer had to worry about Claire causing trouble.

Now that he and Claire are not far away, even if Claire carries the Glory of the Moon with her, he can control Claire's body at any time.

In fact, Lin Yebai was not very interested in controlling the octopus tentacles, so he kept them free.

"There seems to be something strange in the sea recently. Those fishmen said that disaster is about to happen, so they raised the transaction price. They want to build an altar and pray for the blessing of the sea god."

Bishop Hoffman and Lin Yebai sat opposite each other on the dark wooden table with the Journal of the Alchemy Association sent by Claire.

"It seems that the fish man will not take the initiative to lower the price." Lin Yebai said calmly.

Hoffman nodded, and the bishop continued his analysis: "Yes, there was a tsunami near the Sand Island recently, and all the fishmen there have relocated. The fishman priest in the tribe said that there will be unrest in the sea, which may be caused by the resurrection of an evil god. movement."

"At that time, you can take this opportunity to fake your death, and then create a false identity to join the Alchemy Association."

"Actually, the Alchemy Association is not as weak as imagined. If alchemy is really useless, how can the nobles accept electric lights?"

"Do you want to fake death and escape with me?" Lin Yebai asked.

"Yes." Bishop Hoffman raised the corners of his lips and smiled gently.

"Relying on the light of the moon? It can't completely hide it from the gods." Lin Yebai had long guessed that Bishop Hoffman was hiding something from him. It was easy to arrange a fake death. The real difficulty was how to hide it from the God of Light.

Bishop Hoffman didn't know that the God of Light had turned into a salted fish. What price would he pay to promote the successful implementation of the plan?

"There are others, you will know when the time comes." Bishop Hoffman did not reveal the final trump card.

"Could it be this mask? It's not complete."

"I like to arrange everything in advance and don't want to reveal my trump card in the end. There is only one mask. What do you want to do? Tell me, Lord Bishop."

The usually gentle boy suddenly showed a strong side, and Bishop Hoffman was a little surprised. In his eyes, Alex has always been a gentle and kind boy.

"Don't lie to me, I don't like to lie."

When Lin Yebai stood up, Bishop Hoffman was shocked to realize that Alex was no shorter than him. His eyes were so bright and magnificent, like burning divine flames, that he couldn't even say a word he had planned.

"Tell me how you want to do it."

Bishop Hoffman was silent for a few seconds and said slowly: "This mask is an artifact of the God of Deception and has been damaged."

"The God of Deception, like many gods, has completely fallen. His divinity is broken, he has lost his faith, and his artifact cannot be repaired."

"I have tried many methods over the years and finally repaired most of it. Only the last procedure is needed to restore most of its abilities."

"And it's not of high quality, so it won't attract attention."

"What is the last procedure?" Lin Yebai asked.

Bishop Hoffman's voice was low and gentle, as if he was saying a beautiful thing: "Sacrifice a soul who is good at deceit."

"For example... you?" Lin Yebai looked steadily at Bishop Hoffman.

"Yes. Alex, you are a smart and good boy." Bishop Hoffman's tone was still gentle, with a hint of approval. The quality of the soul of an ordinary liar is too poor to be used in a mask. His belief is not pure, but he uses the mask to hide the matter from the God of Light. He used his mortal body to deceive the gods, perfectly fitting the needs of the mask, and he could feel the mask's desire for his soul at all times.

"I won't live long, this is the last thing I can do for you."

"Accompanying you in the form of a soul is the best ending for me."

After losing the Feather of God, Bishop Hoffman's health deteriorated day by day. He rushed to Ulanto so urgently because he was worried that he would die before the plan was implemented.

"For me, this is not the best result." Lin Yebai instantly thought of the key point. It was time to pluck some feathers from the wings of the God of Light. I wonder if ten feathers are enough?
