Chapter 823 Archbishop Kural

It was precisely because of this main mission that Lu Chen was interested in what Kakafa said.

Capturing the divine envoy-level monsters can not only complete the main mission, but also enhance your strength by devouring them later. It is a double-edged sword.

Lu Chen was absorbing the strange origins, and rushed through the eighth step of the saint's realm naturally, arriving at the last small step of the saint's realm, when he suddenly received another prompt from the space.

He received new side missions, which felt like temporary assignments from space.

[Side mission: Mining area development]

Mission content: Recapture the hidden mining area on the border of Morse Province in the northeastern part of the Sistine Empire, help the supporters develop it, and station it for at least a week.

Task time limit: within two natural months

Mission Difficulty: Normal Hard

Mission reward: 10% of all rare minerals excavated by the supporters in the Morse Mine.

Failure penalty: obliteration

Although it was a side mission, Lu Chen saw the word "obliterate" for the first time in a long time.

Lu Chen could only read two words on this page, "Urgent"

He felt that the origin space seemed to be in a hurry. The explorers/supporters in their space were the best at mining and had a high output rate. However, in this world, there were explorers from the other two spaces coming, resulting in mining areas everywhere. Being occupied, the supporters of the Origin Space could not find a good place to wield their pickaxes.

From the previous conversations on the world public channel, Lu Chen could tell that there should be some supporters in the Origin Space group, but they were not having a good time, and they were still poor and happy mining in a miserable place.

The origin space probably couldn’t stand it anymore, so it released this kind of mission.

As for whether he was the only one who received it, Lu Chen was not sure, because there were also seventh-level explorers entering the origin space, and he did not dare to say that he was the strongest one.

Although the punishment for this task was severe, Lu Chen was not in a hurry to do it. The top priority was to absorb the strange origins in his body and then go and have a friendly chat with Archbishop Kural.

Late at night, in the suburbs of the royal capital, Lu Chen stood in the dark night sky, feeling the changes in his body.

The expected thunder disaster did not come, which made his trip in vain.

In the past, in the world of Zhetian, after reaching the Saint Realm, every time he ascended a small step, he would encounter a catastrophe with outrageous power. However, he avoided it when he went to the Land Abandoned by the Gods.

Rather, there is no so-called way of heaven in this place.

The absence of thunder tribulation is not a good thing. It will make him less physically baptized. Those are all subtle changes.

This incident also made Lu Chen more determined. His Martial Emperor Scripture must break free and become a body-based method that is not bound to any heaven and earth environment.

After the breakthrough, Lu Chen's main attribute increased by 2 points again. Under normal conditions, his physical attribute was as high as 179 points, which is already regarded as a god-level strength. If the Duke of Slaughter's Wild Hunting skill is turned on, within 60 seconds of the God Eater , he felt that he could even fight Mona, and there was no chance of winning.

The Divine Forbidden is a very strange thing, and Lu Chen still can't figure out the rules of its triggering. The only thing he feels is related to it is the pressure and state of mind during the battle.

Because he is permanently stationed in the Eight Forbidden Areas, he cannot trigger the Secret Secrets of Secrets unless he enters the Divine Forbidden Areas. This super powerful skill is placed on him, and most of the time the pearl is covered in dust.

But if he could enter the Divine Forbidden State and then activate the secrets, his combat power would be boundless. Lu Chen felt that killing Peter would be a matter of one blow.

He didn't know to what extent the old gods in the God-forsaken land were, but in the state of divine imprisonment, he would probably not die if he met them.

…………

In the prosperous royal capital, ordinary daily life makes people feel comfortable physically and mentally.

In the past few weeks, Lu Chen has been living a three-to-one life. He gets up every morning and eats breakfast cooked by Lu Lin. In the morning, he and Eliyi go to the morning church library.

Then comes sweet lunch, sweet afternoon tea, sweet dinner, sweet... night.

Ji Wu Jiu was honest. Apart from reporting to Bolton on the first day and chatting a little with the middle-aged knight, Lu Chen had nothing to do with him in the church.

Receiving a high salary every day and having his wife by his side almost made Lu Chen forget that this was a mission world.

But today was different from the past. He came to the parish south of the royal capital, outside a mansion, to do business.

He successfully absorbed the remaining weird origins in his body last night, and as he expected, he broke through to the realm of the Saint King, and his main attributes increased by two points again.

The improvement of the great realm is not only the change of attributes, but also the understanding of Tao and the application of Dharma. Compared with the previous ones, the offensive power of Regicide has new changes, which means that he has taken a further step on the road of pursuit.

With his current strength, he didn't have many worries in the God-Forsaken Land, and the Church of Morning Embrace would never have thought that he could successfully absorb a divine envoy-level strange origin in less than a month.

Before he came today, Peter had met him in the church, and his words were quite tactful, meaning that he should not go too far, and Archbishop Kural was still useful to the Morning Support Church.

Lu Chen did not respond. He just said that he wanted to know more about the sacred disaster in Ocalan.

"Mr. Lu, I have been waiting for you for a long time."

As soon as Lu Chen arrived outside the mansion, a middle-aged man wearing a red robe was already standing there.

The man has short gray hair and is nearly 1.8 meters tall. Although he looks middle-aged, his actual age is probably close to seventy. You can see a lot of vicissitudes of life in his eyes.

He has a strong body, a majestic temperament with some affinity, and he has an inexplicable sense of holiness. At first glance, he is a clergyman with a high position in the church.

Archbishop Kural saluted Lu Chen, "I should have thought that such a day would come. Mr. Lu, please come in. I will tell you everything you want to know."

The other party was polite and polite, so to speak, don't hit someone with a smiling face. Lu Chen didn't dare to get angry when he came up, so he was ready to listen to what the other party had to say.

Judging from the memory fragments, that incident was an accident. Archbishop Kural did not intend to cause a disaster there. He indirectly killed 100,000 people in Ocalan City. If he had been the victim, Lu Chen would not have followed him. The other party is talking nonsense, just kill him with a knife.

Archbishop Kural led Lu Chen to sit down on the sofa in the hall, and personally took out a bottle of black tea from a cabinet not far away and brewed it. "Mr. Lu came to me. How much did he know? Or should I say how much did he remember?"

"I can recall everything I saw that night, thanks to that weird origin."

Lu Chen said expressionlessly without taking the teacup.

Archbishop Kural didn't mind either. He put the teapot away and sighed, "I thought you would wake up after I was buried. I didn't expect you to wake up so quickly and your strength would increase incomprehensibly." .”

He shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Others can't understand it, but I understand it. After all, as a transcendent, what you see is different from ordinary transcendents."

He looked at Lu Chen and said, "Mr. Lu, if there is anything else you want to know, please ask."

Lu Chen tapped his fingers on the armrest of the sofa and thought: "First of all, I want to know where that eyeball came from?"

"This design involves the church's top secret..."

Archbishop Kural frowned, but when he saw Lu Chen's eyes, he shook his head and said, "But a Dawn Knight still has the authority to know about this matter."

He recounted: "This stemmed from a special mission. At that time, I was just a special night watchman. I received an emergency transfer order from the Pope to go to the North Sea to deal with a special disaster."

Lu Chen just observed the fluctuations in the other person's emotions and expressions to judge the authenticity of his words.

"You don't have to look at me like that. Mr. Lu can also ask His Majesty the Pope about these matters. It is a task assigned by him."

Archbishop Kural noticed Lu Chen's eyes and said.

"Go on, I'm listening for those people."

Lu Chen said calmly.

Archbishop Kural sighed, "The mission information at that time only showed the scope and intensity of the disaster. As an elite of the special night watch, I felt that I could handle it with confidence. Moreover, those years were very chaotic, and the four knights of the dawn of the church did. I couldn’t spare any money and had no choice, so I headed to Beihai.”

"When I arrived at the scene of the incident, I found that the source of the strange thing was an eyeball. I didn't know how it appeared there, or if someone brought it there, and I didn't know its source at the time."

"The weird eyeballs are not very aggressive in nature, but they are steadily spreading fear and gradually eroding Haibei Province. When I arrived, I had already approached the urban area in the north of Haibei Province. Many of the refugees living in the wilderness were already dead. Well After arriving in time, I easily suppressed it and sealed it into a special box kept by the special night watchmen."

"Because at that time I felt that its power was not ferocious, and I wanted to bring it back to the church completely. A special weird origin would allow me to gain a lot of achievements, but on the way back, I discovered something unusual."

Archbishop Kural looked grave, "It will subtly affect people's minds. Several times during this period, I wanted to absorb it on the spot. Finally, I found red lines on my body and realized that this thing was already controlling me. Now, the frightening whispers and breaths are raging in my body. I use my own original power to fight against it, but with little effect."

"While asking for help from the Royal Capital, I passed through the Delivi God Pillars in various places and wanted to return to the Royal Capital as soon as possible. However, I still overestimated my resilience and went all the way to the outskirts of Ocalan City. I originally wanted to pass through the Delivi God Pillars there. I can move through the pillars, but my body can no longer withstand it. If I don’t give up my weird eyes, I’m afraid I will be controlled soon.”

When Lu Chen heard this, he said, "So just let it go."

Archbishop Kural opened his mouth, "Yes, I really want to say that I am afraid that if I am manipulated, it will cause a greater disaster, but those are all reasons. I am just afraid of death, so I let it go."

Lu Chen didn't judge, picked up the tea cup and drank the black tea.

"After letting go, I withdrew to a certain distance and used the strange original power in my body to dispel the influence of the strange eye. I thought that after I recovered, I would suppress it again and head to the royal capital in one breath."

Archbishop Kural showed a look of reminiscence, "I still remember those civilians running toward the strange eyes one by one, gouging out their own eyes and then dying miserably on the ground. But I didn't dare to go there before I had adjusted myself. Because I have experienced so many weird events that I have become more and more cautious and afraid of death and complete destruction."

"After I adjusted my breath, I was about to take action to suppress it, but something happened that I couldn't imagine. Did you know that it was actually the eye of an old god, belonging to Haquist, and his projection? When it comes, it’s just not a level I can handle.”

Lu Chen listened to Archbishop Kural's narration, reflecting on the strange memory fragments, and realized that the other party was not lying.

He could see that Archbishop Kural had indeed returned to suppress the Weird Eye after he recovered at that time, but the disaster was constantly escalating.

"Mr. Lu, I have to say that your survival is a miracle. If the person who was targeted at that time was me, there should be no possibility of my survival. But you not only withstood the direct erosion of the old god's will, but you were also lucky enough to be wiped out. Before, we encountered a struggle between two old gods, and at the last moment, the aura of another old god appeared, breaking Haquist's projection."

Archbishop Kural seemed to have lingering fears, "Until now, I still feel like I am in a dream. I saw the manifestation of the two old gods with my own eyes, but I still survived. As you know, you are the only one among the civilians. survivor."

Lu Chen was silent for a moment. Before coming, Peter had said something to himself, "Archbishop Kural has saved tens of millions of mortals in his life. He may not be a good person, but he is trying his best to do what he should do."

"...I still have two things to ask."

Lu Chen said.

"Mr. Lu, please speak."

Archbishop Kural seems to have come to his senses.

"Did you want to kill me then?"

Lu Chen looked directly into Archbishop Kural's eyes.

Kural suddenly felt a suffocating pressure from the evil spirit. Accompanied by the special fear he had experienced back then, the young man in front of him had probably already absorbed it! ?

He took a deep breath, calmed down a little, and nodded: "Yes, I wanted to kill you because you were the only witness. If I kill you, my mistake will disappear. This will be the first time A weird disaster happened and I was just passing by to deal with it.”

"Actually, you did not kill me, and the details of Ocalan's sacred disaster were also erased."

Lu Chen said calmly.

"I am a person who attaches great importance to power and merit. I don't want my career as a Night Watchman to be stained. But when I put my hand on your mind, I feel that your strong spirit is still fighting. You may become a transcendent." , and before awakening, you were all crazy, so I changed my mind and handed you over to the local church."

Kural said with emotion.

"Why take the risk? It is clear that the transcendent may wake up and remember the truth."

Lu Chen leaned on the sofa and looked directly into the other person's eyes.

Kural shook his head and said, "But you may be an extremely powerful transcendent who can protect more people in the future and make greater contributions to the church. Killing you would be the greatest betrayal of the goddess of morning embrace. It was also the ultimate condemnation of my conscience, so I gave up.”
