Chapter 650 The Cooperation of the Disobedient

When such a disobedient word came out of Veronica, who has always shown her piety, Gawain felt really strange, and after hearing this sentence, he also noticed one thing— —Veronica's vague sense of disobedience was not as simple as "dehumanization". Gawain also felt a... strangeness in this saintess princess.

Although her appearance does not seem to have changed, and the way she speaks and behaves is similar to before, in some places that are not easily noticed, the details of the princess' temperament seem to have undergone subtle changes, and the person is still the same person. But inside... it seems to be different from before.

Gawain couldn't really tell what the differences were that could hardly be described in words, because his own understanding of Veronica was limited, but he guessed that the changes in the other party must be different from the self-proclaimed "Ophili". Ya?? Norton" this ancient people.

"What are you thinking?" Veronica, or the ancient man who called himself "Ophelia Norton", asked after noticing that Gawain had not answered for a long time.

"I'm thinking about what kind of existence you are..." Gawain said calmly, "An ancient soul that keeps resurrecting? Inhabiting this body? You replaced the original Veronica at some point?? Moen? Where was the original Veronica? Or... did she exist from the beginning?"

"Is this question important?" The woman with a calm expression all the time asked gently, "Kamel is right by your side, an ancient magister who has survived from the age of sparks to the present. The changed he should be more incredible than us, isn't it?"

"But I trust Carmel, but I can't trust you so directly, so this question is very important," Gawain said, "You keep too many secrets and say too little, and you have been active in another identity for so long, The contact with me at this moment seems too sudden... so it is necessary for me to understand the ins and outs of you, and the real purpose of you suddenly telling me these things. Why are you looking for me? How are you sure that I will cooperate with you? "

"Since you care so much..." Veronica/Ophelia smiled slightly, "Then it's not wrong for you to regard us as a stubborn soul wandering in this world and unwilling to dissipate, I am indeed staying here now. In a body, but I did not replace her... As long as this body was just born, before her personality consciousness appeared, we had completed our boarding - so you can think of me as the original dimension. Ronica Moen, because I lived her entire life, but with a much older and longer-lasting memory.

"We are indeed different from the ancient magister by your side. We have been active in this world for many years. We know the changes in the human kingdom over the years, so we are particularly curious about your appearance... IMHO, in our long-term There are not many factors that can be called 'variables' in the observations of , and you are one of them...

"Our observations and experiments with the Church of the Holy Light have come to an end,

This project won't bring more benefits, but we hope to cooperate with you in the next step, and why choose you...you have accepted a disobedient, haven't you? What's more, you are still promoting new teachings in the South. Frankly speaking, what you are promoting coincides with our goals, and we have reasons for cooperation.

"As to whether you'll work with us...it's your choice. Whatever you choose, we'll gladly accept it. All I can say is that if you choose to trust, you'll be rewarded exactly for that trust, if If you don't trust it, we will do other projects first."

Gawain glanced at Veronica/Ophelia quietly, and naturally put his hand on the hilt of the Sword of Trailblazers: "What if I choose to kill you directly here? You are a huge Unsettled factors, it is possible for me to do so.”

"This fifty-five kilograms of biomass is an acceptable loss for us," the woman said calmly, "and you don't have to."

"Indeed," Gao Wen raised his eyebrows slightly, "then what exactly do 'you' want to cooperate with me? What do you want from me, what can I get, and most importantly... all of this is also 'you' Part of an experimental project?"

"We are very interested in the Southern Doctrine that you and Patriarch Wright co-founded, and we are also very interested in the technology of the White Knight. We are willing to use Southern Doctrine as a benchmark to help you transform the Church of the Holy Light. This is your greatest The gains, and what we want from you...is just the technical feedback that comes along in the process. For us today, knowledge is the only thing of value, and we want nothing else.”

"But while you gain knowledge, you will do some 'extra actions' by the way," Gawain glanced around the Great Hall of Light, and his eyes finally landed on the empty Holy Throne of the Pope, "You won't say anything in front of me. Are these people all dead?"

"Clearing these 'bridges of God' is our intended goal, it is part of the plan of disobedience, and it will not happen to you, and frankly, I have no ability to cause this kind of threat to you - you are not the Holy Light Believer of the God of God, the platinum scepter in my hand is just an ordinary and extraordinary relic to you," Veronica said calmly, "Of course, I can also confess another point: cooperation with you, in It is indeed a new item in our standards.”

After a short pause, she showed a gentle smile: "Any project has the possibility of failure - but the 'cooperation' itself also bears the risk of failure, isn't it?"

"...I will consider it and give you an answer as soon as possible," Gawain said after being silent for two seconds, looking into the eyes of "Princess of the Holy Virgin", "This may be beneficial to all of us, but in order to establish more Trust, I hope we hide as few things as possible from each other, and if I find that you are a potential threat to the Cecil Empire, I will rule it out as soon as possible."

"I understand your concerns," Veronica/Ophelia bowed her head slightly, "Mutual trust is our common goal."

Gawain took a slight breath, exhaled it slowly, and said, "Then it's time for us to discuss how to deal with the martyrdom of the Pope and the entire bishops' conference. There are tens of thousands of Holy Light believers in this city, and all the churches in the Holy Spirit Plain are Influenced by the Cathedral of the Light - soon, everyone will know what's going on in the Cathedral."

Veronica/Ophelia raised her head: "Do you have any ideas?"

"Holy Pope Ivan III was summoned by the Lord after God's Arrival, and before he left, he heard the oracle, the content of the oracle..." Gawain glanced at the other party, "I will send someone to deliver it later."

Veronica/Ophelia's eyebrows seemed to be slightly raised, but then returned to her usual calm and gentle appearance: "Then please try to write a little bit of compromise, in the places where the old canon has the most far-reaching influence, changes need to be gradual. "

Gawain nodded casually and turned towards the exit of the hall.

Before stepping away, he turned his head slightly and asked the last question: "When you say 'humanity will last forever', do you mean all human beings or a selected part of human beings."

"Is this question important too?"

"Very important."

The voice behind Gawain was silent for a few seconds, and then came leisurely:

"Perhaps not everyone can survive in this difficult world, but the appearance of every victim can only prove our incompetence."

It looks like this is the answer for the disobedient.

Gawain nodded slightly and stepped out of the hall where the holy light floated.

Veronica quietly watched the direction Gawain left, and after a long time she turned around and walked into the depths of the hall.

"He may have found anomalies in this interface... The newly downloaded personality data is not completely stable." "But the goal of the communication has been achieved." "It is uncertain whether this contact will produce positive results..." "Positive assessment For the good—and our time is running out." "At least nothing to lose..."

The soft self-talk seemed to be split into several personalities. This self-talk echoed in a low voice in the Great Hall of Light, and finally gradually returned to silence.

Gawain, who returned to Silver Castle, immediately called Amber, who was on standby.

"Hey... You look so serious and scary," Amber couldn't help exclaiming the moment he saw Gawain, "Isn't it just going to a church... What's going on there? Could it be a cathedral? The bishops’ conference here has been wiped out?”

Amber happily started a divergent BB, and never forgot to hack the Northern Holy Light Church, but she was dumbfounded as soon as Gawain opened her mouth—

"The Bishops' Conference was wiped out in the Divine Arrival."

"……what?"

"The Pope St. Ivan III also died in the descent, and the news will be announced tomorrow."

"……what?!"

"At present, there are only high-ranking priests below the bishop left in the cathedral, and Veronica Moen, a living saint."

"...Mom..." Amber finally woke up, his eyes widened, "Hey I was just kidding, you don't have to cooperate like this...Isn't it true?"

"I'm not you, so I would make such a joke?" Gawain glanced at the half-elf, "Shut up, I have a mission for you."

Amber hurriedly closed his mouth, which was opened in shock, and rubbed his face vigorously: "Ah, say it."

"Take someone to check the living records of the royal family members in the Silver Castle, check all the information about Veronica Moen, especially when she was a child," Gawain said, "In addition, check the Church of the Holy Light when it accepted Victorian. Ronica's conversion, including her baptism record."

Amber's expression finally became serious, she nodded: "Understood."

Seeing Amber's solemn expression, Gawain paused for a while, and suddenly asked, "Have you found a clue?"

Amber was stunned for a moment, and then realized what the other party was asking. She probably didn't expect Gawain to really remember this matter, she blinked and said, "I haven't had time to check it carefully... I just asked. Several court scholars in charge of coats of arms, but no one had ever heard of the surname 'Randolph'..."

The so-called clues refer to the information of Amber's adoptive father, the stalker with the surname, "Surrey Randolph".

This name and the uncommon noble surname are Amber's only knowledge of his adoptive father, and this shadow superhuman who has a noble surname and does not seem to be weak, eventually died in a remote rural area in the south, in the church and local nobles. Under the joint trial, the secret is really puzzling.

It seems that even Pittman doesn't know what's going on.

Gawain once promised to help Amber find clues about his adoptive father in Saint Sunil, and now he has arrived in Saint Sunil—although the way he arrived was a bit surprising, but it was time to fulfill his promise.

"Your adoptive father may be a descendant of a family that has been down for a long time, or someone who was deprived of his surname decades ago, or more likely to be a child of an undisclosed 'shadow noble'. Most of the heraldry scholars have It’s normal for them not to know the information of the orthodox family,” Gawain comforted Amber, “Don’t worry, we still have a lot of time—you can start with the Royal Family Library in Silver Castle, which houses all the nobles of the Ansu Dynasty. The genealogy, including the most remote and desolate ones, if it still doesn't work, you can go to the Moen family's secret collection and look for it, there may be clues."

"Hopefully..." Amber whispered, "Actually, it's nothing to find... It's been so many years."

"But you still care, don't you? It happens that I also care about whether your adoptive father's surname is a descendant of an old friend, and what kind of book it is. It's worthy of an extraordinary person going to the church to steal things," Gao said. Wen smiled, "Just think it's for me to find out, go and investigate Surrey Randolph's clues."

"Okay, then you have to process the money."

Gawain was stunned: "...You're too shameless, aren't you?"
