Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest

"I hope this information is helpful to you."

Anthony also nodded, and then he and Pamier waited for Luo Xiu's next instructions.

Luo Xiu carefully browsed the contents of the paper again, and his eyes stayed on the words "huge ship", "ancient soul", "sacrifice" and so on for a moment. His brows were sometimes furrowed and sometimes relaxed, as if he was thinking about something.

"Death Announcer" Grien, in the letter he sent to "Death Priest" Asves, he called "Death Priest" Asves, whose profession was [Lost] Fourfold Fate, his comrade... Luo Xiu was able to confirm that Grien was the "Fourfold Fate".

However, how could such a letter between extraordinary people with [Lost] Fourfold Fate fall into the hands of Anthony and Pamier, who only had threefold fate?

Although they can be regarded as the elite among the elites of the "Triple Fate", there is still an insurmountable gap between them and the true "Quadruple Fate" and the pagans who are "Priests"... While thinking about this, Luo Xiu's doubts surged in his heart, and he began to notice that there were many things wrong.

"Anthony, and Pamier."

Suddenly, Luo Xiu asked them: "How did you get this letter?"

While asking them this question, Luo Xiu was also observing their reactions.

Pamier turned her head away, her eyes were looking elsewhere, and her movements showed that it was not the letter she got.

Anthony nodded slightly and said to Luo Xiu:

"That was the letter found in the base of the 'Secret Prayer of Death'. It was placed on a table at the innermost side of the base's secret library. I found it and brought it back."

"You found it in the base of the 'Secret Prayer of Death'?" Luo Xiu's tone seemed even more puzzled, "The base located on Quarter Street... But that base should have nothing to do with the 'Priest of Death' Asvis..."

The targets he gave Anthony and Pamier to perform the "Judgment of Paganism" mission were all pagan bases that Luo Xiu knew thoroughly, and they were originally his spare experience fields.

There were only two "Dead Souls" with triple fates in the base of the "Secret Prayer of Death" located on Quarter Street. And if the "Teller of Death" Grion really sent this letter to the "Priest of Death" Asvis, it would not be sent to the medium-sized base of the "Secret Prayer of Death".

Seeing the increasingly solemn expression on Luo Xiu's face, Anthony felt a little uneasy.

He then heard Luo Xiu continue to ask him:

"That letter... Anthony, can you tell me in detail, from the time you entered the secret vault to the whole process of your discovery of the letter?"

"Of course." Anthony nodded and said, "Before entering the secret vault, the door of the secret vault was guarded by a dead spirit. I purified the dead spirit before I could enter the secret vault."

"And when I first entered the secret vault, I asked other holy judges to sort out the materials in it, and organize and store the spoils that were ready to be taken out."

"After that, I noticed the small table deep in the secret vault, on which this letter was placed. I took it out, that's the whole process."

"..."

"In other words, you didn't find this letter at the first time?" Luo Xiu nodded slightly and asked him back immediately.

"Uh... indeed." Anthony was stunned for a while, nodded, and said, "When I entered the secret vault, I did not find such a letter there... I found it later."

"So that's how it is... I understand. Thank you for your hard work, Anthony."

Luo Xiu suddenly understood, and a gentle smile appeared on his face, and he said to Anthony.

From Anthony's words, he was able to roughly infer the whole process of the incident.

-The letter did not appear in the secret vault at the beginning, but after Anthony purified the guarding dead spirit, it was sneaked in by others and placed on the table in the secret vault.

Anthony killed the dead spirit and also opened the "door" for the intruder. And the intruder who placed the "letter" must have been following Anthony, Pamier and their Holy Inquisitor team for a long time, just to wait for the opportunity to put the letter, so that Anthony and his team "coincidentally" got such information...

And Anthony and his team did not find this person from beginning to end, which means that he did not enter from the front of the base, but sneaked in from other places-was it through the wall? If you want to enter the secret library without going through the main entrance, this seems to be the only possibility.

And the person or creature who can carry the letter through the wall and put it on the table quietly may not have a real entity, but a spirit form, or have the ability to transform into a spirit...

In Luo Xiu's impression, each destiny has similar abilities. But the most convenient and hidden ones are the "Spirit of the Lost" series of extraordinary people, or the "Spirit Body" controlled by the Supreme.

The former can command the "wandering spirit" to pass through the physical wall, and the latter can control the "Spirit Body" to do the same thing... Luo Xiu thought about it, and he had a rough judgment in his heart.

If it is the letter that the "Lost" spirit extraordinary person quietly placed, he revealed these contents to us, which is not good for them who believe in the "Lost", and may even expose their own existence and put themselves in a dangerous situation.

The main content of the letter is still quite true. Luo Xiu, who has the memory of his previous life, can clearly judge the authenticity of most of the content.

But if it is the [Supreme]... they want to use the church's help to eradicate the "Death Teller" Grayn first, then it makes sense...

They also have their own way to obtain such a faithful "death teller" letter. It could be intercepted halfway, or obtained after killing the "priest of death". In the Nolan Empire, Luo Xiu never doubted the power of the [Supreme] Intelligence Network.

And they also have the motive to kill the "death teller" Gray.

First of all, "Death Teller" Grayn, who is loyal to the Theocracy, is the real enemy. As for the [Supreme] people who gathered in the "side court" of Red Maple City, their subordinate Lord Nelson was threatened. Therefore, those [Supreme] people wanted to take revenge but were unwilling to do it themselves?

In the current Red Maple City, many parties are confronting each other openly and covertly, causing the city to maintain a strange peace on the surface. Those [Supreme] people may also want to take this opportunity to use the church to break the silence and create cracks in the enemy's secret layout... Luo Xiu was thinking about this.

In a short period of thinking, Luo Xiu gradually understood the context of the incident, and he quickly made a corresponding decision.

"Um...Anthony."

Luo Xiu then stopped thinking, and then said to Anthony: "No matter what, we still got information about the hiding place of the 'Death Teller' Gray."

"I will take action personally for any further matters."

"And you... Anthony, I need you to go to the side court where the [Supreme] is stationed and tell them the information we learned about the 'Death Teller' Gray."

"Then, Pamier, you will lead the team. Early tomorrow morning, we will completely block off the area around 'Alley No. 6, the abandoned site of Pender Street', and no one will be allowed to pass."

"If 'Death Teller' Gray is hiding there, I will kill him with my own hands. I will use his death to establish my prestige to the church and the church to Red Maple City."

"..."

"I understand." Anthony nodded and said, "I will go to the side court and tell their grand inquisitor this matter."

"Then I will inform the other Holy Judges and ask them to prepare and set off tomorrow morning." Pamier also responded from the side.

…

After arranging new tasks for Anthony and Pamier, they said goodbye to Luo Xiu and left according to Luo Xiu's instructions.

The next day, early morning.

Palmier, leading a dozen of the Holy Judges, were already waiting at the main entrance of the church.

Their eyes were all looking towards the depths of the inner courtyard, waiting for the figure of the great priest to appear.

When the figure of "hosting the grand ceremony" Luo Xiu appeared in their field of vision, the eyes of most of the Holy Inquisitors exuded excitement.

As early as the day when Luo Xiu arrived to "preside over the Great Sacrifice", these Holy Inquisitors learned from Anthony about the priesthood before presiding over the Great Sacrifice - this Great High Priest, like them, was once a Holy Inquisitor. This gave these Holy Judges an inexplicable sense of belonging.

And this Great Priest will actually perform the "Holy Judgment" with them this time, which makes the Holy Judgments even more excited.

Luo Xiu quickly came to Pamiai and the Holy Judges. The panel detection showed that they were in good condition and could carry out this blockade mission.

"Then, let's go."

Luo Xiu looked solemn and said to Pamier and the Holy Judges behind her:

"The Holy Light protects us and makes us fearless of any heresy and evil. Now, let us work together to 'judge' the real enemy hiding in the dark."

…

Red Maple City, abandoned site on Pender Street.

This is the ruins of an old street outside Red Maple City. In the history of this city, the function of Pender Street has changed several times - first it was built as a military barracks in the fortress city, then it was changed to a residential area, and then to Military factory.

About three years ago, in a huge "alchemy" accident, a devastating series of explosions occurred throughout Pender Street. The fire burned for three days and three nights, completely turning the block into ruins.

After Pender Street experienced the big explosion at that time, Lodiff, who was the mayor of Red Maple City at the time, did not want to bear the huge reconstruction costs, so he incorporated Pender Street into the wasteland, and simply posted guards to guard the entrance of the block. There are no more new initiatives to redevelop Pender Street.

It wasn't until Nelson, the current mayor, took office that he put the rebuilding of Pender Street back on the agenda.

But now that the "Trial War" is approaching, the reconstruction of Pender Street has to be postponed indefinitely.

In the deep alley No. 6 of Pender Street, in front of the ruins of a dilapidated warehouse.

Two believers in gray-black cloaks were guarding both sides of the library gate, holding dead wood staffs.

Suddenly, one of the believers raised his head and glanced at the corner of the abandoned street in front of him.

In front of him, another man in a black cloak appeared. But the hood covered his face, preventing the guarding believers from seeing his true face.

"Who are you?" A believer said in a low voice, "If you don't have His Holiness's invitation, please go back and don't disturb His Holiness's sleep."

Opposite the two believers, the mysterious man in a black cloak also raised his head and looked at the pale lines that looked like "eyes" in the center of the cloak on the believers in front of him.

"Of course I have an invitation from His Holiness."

The mysterious man suddenly smiled and asked, "Excuse me, who is the 'Hidden Eye'? Is the 'Teller of Death' Grion inside?"

"..."

"'I will spy on the dead who desire life; I will guide the living who desire death'. We are the guides of the 'Hidden Eye'."

The believers said in a low voice, "Guest, I need to remind you that you should not call the Venerable by his name."

"But the Venerable will not mind. After all, the elders never care about the mischief of children."

After saying this, two believers of the "Hidden Eye" pulled the chain hanging on the door and said to the mysterious man:

"Since it is the Venerable's invitation, please come in. However, on the way to meet the Venerable, there will inevitably be some tests that require piety."

Then, the believers opened the door to a gap that only allowed one person to pass, but the mysterious man did not move to enter.

"..."

"Please come in?" After the believer finished speaking, he saw that the mysterious man did not respond, so he said it again.

But the mysterious man still did not respond. He just raised his arm and grabbed the hood of his cloak.

Then, he suddenly swung his hand and threw the cloak aside, revealing the white robe hidden under the cloak!

That was the robe of the chief priest of the "Holy Court" church! The two believers recognized it instantly, and expressions of horror suddenly appeared on their faces.

"You! You are from the church... How do you know the "Secret Eye" and the name of the Venerable!"

While they were asking questions in surprise, the staffs in their hands also emitted a dark and rich dark light, and an ominous breath leaked out from it. The terrifying death spell was brewing rapidly in it.

And Luo Xiu, who had taken off his cloak to disguise himself, had already prepared the holy prayer that was about to be released.

His right hand immediately emitted pure golden light, and the terrifying annihilation energy was nurtured at a speed far higher than that of the believers. The energy had begun to condense into substance, forming the prototype of a giant sword.

Under the horrified eyes of the believers, Luo Xiu took a step back. At the same time, he raised his right hand, and the giant sword with golden brilliance had completely taken shape, sweeping across the waists of the two believers!

——Sword of Holy Annihilation! This was one of Luo Xiu's latest self-created skills. The blade with golden light had slashed to the waists of the believers, and completely engulfed their bodies in an instant!

Swish! Sizzle! The burning sound came out, accompanied by the dazzling golden light splashing everywhere.

Before the two believers could react to what happened, their bodies were cut in half by the giant sword, and they fell heavily on the ground in four pieces.

"Ho ho... ho..." The pagans uttered vague sounds intermittently in their throats, and their bodies twitched for a while, and then they were completely motionless.

Luo Xiu then stepped over their bodies, grabbed the chains they had held before, and pulled them back violently.

A heavy "click, click" sound was heard, and the door was completely opened, revealing a completely dark interior space.

Luo Xiu then walked in, and he began to pray for multiple sacred arts in advance, and then his figure disappeared into the darkness inside the door.
