Shanhai Developer

To deceive the public, the advance team to Shanhai Manor consisted of only three people, namely Cardinal Johnny, Cardinal Gaius, and Bishop Maku.

on the ship.

Johnny was studying the material presented at Abner.

Marcus glanced at it, and lowered his voice to ask Gaius, "What is the background of this Father Abner? Why haven't I heard of it before?"

Marcus is the bishop of the diocese, and there are still provinces and cardinals between him and the pope, so many secrets are unclear.

On the contrary, Cardinal Gaius, who directly serves the Pope, knows more inside information.

Gaius loved gossip and was well-informed, so he replied in a low voice, "Father Abner is from the Ecclesiastical Province of America."

"No special background?"

"No."

Everyone may be as puzzled as Marcus. Abner is a young priest with no special background. How can his report reach the supreme leader, the Pope?

Besides, wasn't he rejected by the American church in the past?Otherwise, he wouldn't have been thrown to Huaguo to investigate the "miracle descending" of that kind of laoshizi.

Why did it suddenly change this time?

original.

A few days ago, the Pope received a divine revelation that Father Abner would find the trace of the demon Astaroth.

The battle between the church and Astaroth has been protracted. Before, it was hard to find the trace of this guy, so they have been suppressed and did not take any action. Now that they have finally found their whereabouts, naturally they cannot be easily let go.

What's more, this is a revelation from God, and they want Astaroth to fall into hell no matter what, to show their utter loyalty to God.

Based on the above considerations, the Pope immediately ordered the archbishop of the United States to pay close attention to Abner's movements.

With the Archbishop as the gatekeeper, any information fed back by Abner can reach the Pope immediately.

The same is true of yesterday's report.

Ma Ku had an expression of "So that's it", and then asked again: "But I don't understand, what is there in Shanhai Manor that deserves Astaroth's appearance? Is it just to satisfy the petition of the devotees?"

Gaius said mysteriously: "Satisfying the petition is only one of them. The second is that although I have never been there, I know that Shanhai Manor is very miraculous."

"What kind of magical method?"

"It is known as the holy land of Huaguo, Taoism and Buddhism."

"Really?"

"Of course it is true. Moreover, there are believers who have seen angels descending in the mountains and seas. The reason why Father Abner came to Huaguo is to check this."

"That's too amazing."

"There's something even more amazing. Shanhai's food is very famous, you know?"

"Yes, I've been on the international news."

"I was lucky enough to snap up peaches from mountains and seas. It is no exaggeration to say that this deliciousness can only be grown in the Garden of Eden!"

"Suck, I really want to see you quickly..."

Johnny couldn't listen anymore, and put away the materials, "Taoism has four holy places: Wudang, Qiyun, Qingcheng, and Dragon and Tiger; Buddhism takes Lumbini, Bodh Gaya, Sarnath, and Kusinara as holy places. The above eight places , has anything to do with Shanhai Manor?"

As soon as he spoke, Marko fell silent.

Gaius and Johnny are both in the Cardinal. Although they have different levels, they are very close on weekdays, and they dare to argue at a time like this.

"What if it is a new holy place established by the Huaguo Daomen?"

Johnny looked back at him, "Conversely, if Shanhai Manor is really the new holy place of Taoism and Buddhism, how can angels come to the holy places of Taoism and Buddhism? Even if they are going to come, should they come to Jerusalem, the Vatican or the holy places of my religion? Santiago?"

"This……"

"As for comparing Shanhai Manor with the Garden of Eden, it is ridiculous. Where is the Garden of Eden? The original residence of Adam and Eve is the garden of God. How could it exist in the mortal world?"

Gaius was taught to doubt himself.

"It seems, it seems to be so. But the peaches are really delicious. Could it be that I was so hungry at the time?"

Johnny had no choice but to remind, "Don't follow others' advice in everything, you must have your own independent judgment and thinking."

Gaius scratched his face in embarrassment, "You taught me a lesson. But the taste of peaches is really my independent judgment and..."

Johnny stared at him.

Gaius sneered and made an "I shut up" gesture.

Johnny withdrew his gaze, continued to check the information, and soon heard Gaius' exaggerated exclamation.He frowned and turned his head, and saw Gaius and Marcus were both leaning against the window with amazed expressions.

He followed their gazes and was instantly amazed.

They are the upper echelons of the church, and their perception of energy is much sharper than that of Abner and other priests.

In his eyes, the endless manor is surrounded by "holy light", slowly and steadily radiating holy light towards the surroundings.

As the spaceship descended, the white light gradually enveloped the spaceship, and the outside of the visible window was white.

Johnny stared blankly at the scene outside the window, and didn't react for a long time. He didn't stand up until the hatch opened automatically and a lot of energy poured in, and he stumbled and ran off the spaceship.

Bathed in the "Holy Light".

The mind becomes clearer.

The body is nourished.

Even the pain left by the fight against the devil has been healed...

Such a beautiful place, if it is not the Garden of Eden, it is paradise!

Johnny drew the sign of the Holy Cross devoutly and silently prayed to God.

Gaius looked around excitedly, "This fairyland, not to mention Taoism and Buddhism competing to be listed as a holy place, even I hope this can be a Christian holy place."

Ma Ku leaned on Gaius with weak legs, "So, this is probably the reason for Astaroth's appearance?"

Hearing the name "Astaroth", Johnny finally came to his senses.

While the heart is surging, it is necessary to add a sense of sacred mission.

"Shanhai Manor must be God's gift and salvation to the believers. We must protect this place! Come on, follow me to visit the general manager of Shanhai Manor!"

10 minutes later, in the lobby of the small bungalow.

Xia Yunxiao looked at the three middle-aged men in suits and leather shoes on the opposite side, "So, the church wants me to cooperate with the exorcism?"

Johnny nodded, "Yes."

Xia Yunxiao quickly pondered.

Looking at the expressions of the three, it seems that they are very persistent in arresting Astaroth. If they categorically reject their request, it may not be conducive to doing business with Heaven in the future.

He thought for a moment and asked, "How sure are you?"

"This..." Johnny's expression froze, showing the expression of a strong man cutting his wrists, "We have gathered the most powerful and mature exorcist forces from 40 provinces, and even if we die, we must capture that guy! "

Xia Yunxiao scratched her head in distress: Your statement is too artistic, so you didn't say how sure you are of victory.

Bai Ze jumped onto the table, squatting upright in the middle, [Historically, the church organized exorcism three times. 】

Xia Yunxiao's eyes brightened slightly: [You know all of this?How is the result? 】

Xingyuan looked at him indifferently: [The death rate of the combatants is 90%. 】

Xia Yunxiao Moment: @#￥%&*...

This is almost equivalent to annihilation of the whole army, brother!

Seeing that Xia Yunxiao was silent, but his expression kept changing, Johnny leaned forward and asked, "Mr. Xia? What's your opinion?"

Xia Yunxiao rubbed his face wearily, met the expectant eyes of the three people, and said awkwardly: "This, that, let's do it ourselves."

"do it yourself?"

Johnny had already learned from Abner that Xia Yunxiao was young and vigorous, and intended to fight Astaroth.

So after seeing Xia Yunxiao, he first introduced Astaru's various supernatural powers in detail, and tried his best to describe its horror. After this, he still wants to fight?

Johnny said earnestly, "Mr. Xia, this is not the time to be impulsive. After all, we have fought with that guy for thousands of years and accumulated a lot of combat experience. But you, you don't know him at all, or you still know him It would be better to hand it over to the church..."

Xia Yunxiao said in her heart that I am not acting out of emotion, I am saving your lives.

"I appreciate the kindness of the church. However, we have made full preparations to face the devil."

"What to prepare?"

"The detailed rules cannot be disclosed for the time being. In short, please believe that we will not fail. Therefore, we can avoid it by cooperating with the church."

"Do you want to borrow the power of your country's Taoism? I noticed that there are many monks of Taoism and Buddhism in the manor. If this is the case, your chances of winning with us will be a little higher."

Xia Yunxiao didn't want to talk deeply about this, "You guys, please rest assured, we will control our strength during the battle, capture all the demons alive, and hand them over to the church."

"President Xia..."

Johnny still wanted to persuade.

Xia Yunxiao got up, "Sorry, there is a meeting to attend later, you guys are playing casually in the manor, I will take my leave first."

After saying this, he took Bai Ze with him, jumped into the farm cart and fled.

Johnny chased after him, ran a few steps and failed to catch up.

Gaius came out right after him, looked at the farm cart gradually going away, and murmured: "I'm afraid the task entrusted by God will not be completed."

Maku shook his head in pain.

"Crazy crazy! Must be crazy!"

"Where did they get the confidence to think that they could deal with the Supreme Four Pillars? Even if the entire Huaguo Daomen tried their best, they would not be the opponent of that demon!"

"What do you say to control the power and capture them alive? Are they being helped by gods or angels?!"

Ma Ku turned around a few times and asked anxiously, "What should I do next?"

Johnny thought for a moment and said, "Contact the official agency."

The official organization that Johnny said was the "special case team" of Huaguo's secret government department.

The special case team is an intermediary organization connecting Huaguo Daomen and the mortal world. In the case of Shanhai Manor, it is most appropriate for them to come forward to coordinate.

but……

Johnny looked at the letter replied by the special case team with a serious expression.

Gaius read the contents of the letter twice, and said in amazement: "Is it because I was blindsided or the special case team replied wrongly? Why is Shanhai Manor not under the jurisdiction of the special case team? Doesn't this land belong to Huaguo? "

Ma Ku continued to hold his head in pain, "Shanhai Manor doesn't cooperate, and the official agency doesn't care! Astaroth will kill him tomorrow, what should we do now?"

Johnny put away the projector and said solemnly: "For now, the only way to do it is to redo the battle plan."

Time is tight.

The three of Johnny did not dare to stay longer in Shanhai, and immediately returned to the hotel to adjust their battle plan.

Exorcist teams from forty provinces moved and lurked two miles away from Shanhai Manor, ready to go, waiting for the arrival of the devil.

Gaius and Ma Ku, as the advance personnel, stayed in the ecological belt of mountains, rivers and lakes to monitor and report the latest situation of mountains and seas at any time.

at dusk.

Gaius and Ma Ku knelt side by side in the tent, with the mountain and sea set meal takeaway in front of them.After praying, the two picked up the rice with great care and looked at each other affectionately, followed by a gust of wind and clouds.

After dinner.

Ma Ku looked at the empty lunch box and sighed resignedly, "This may be the last dinner in our lives."

Gaius stared at the night sky.

Marcus was right.

The more than [-] priests selected this time are not so much exorcists as they are death squads.Tomorrow's battle with Astaroth is doomed to be a disaster.

but!

To be able to die for this pure holy land, to die for light, justice, and faith is a worthy death!

The other exorcists were the same as Gaius and Marcus. As time passed, the atmosphere surrounding them became more and more chilling.

However, Xia Yunxiao, more than three hundred practitioners, and the happy middle and high-level people were different.

At this moment, they are so excited that they are bursting, and they are so happy that they are crazy, and they can't wait for Astaroth/Master Demon God to appear immediately!

Twelve midnight.

A gust of wind rose in Juicita County, the temperature plummeted, lightning pierced the sky, and thunder was deafening.

Xia Yunxiao and the others brightened their eyes.

finally come! ! !
