Chapter 802 The Old Friend Has Gone

Just as Gawain had guessed before, this "Lantern Saint", the spiritual lady who was responsible for sheltering the entire exploration team seven hundred years ago, had more information than the ordinary members of the team at that time.

Gawain frowned and asked seriously, "What did he tell you?"

He is not worried about whether the other party will refuse to answer him - since Selena has taken the initiative to bring up these topics, it means that these contents can be said, and even planned to tell him this "extraterritorial wanderer"!

Sure enough, Selena nodded quickly: "He told me that he came into contact with ancient knowledge inheritance on a tower that was forever shrouded in starlight, and knew the weaknesses and truth of the gods.

"He couldn't say that knowledge directly in the mortal world, because that would cause the gods to notice it immediately.

"He said he would die in his prime, and his soul would be taken away as part of the deal, but he would wake up, and at that time, a powerful being would come to the world with his body.

"That's all he told me."

"No wonder..." Gawain finally came to his senses and let out a light sigh, "No wonder you didn't follow Gawain Cecil into the depths of the continent to find the giant tower, but you still know the details of that 'transaction', know me Will appear."

Then he couldn't help but look at Selena with some doubts: "Since you already knew that I would occupy this body and come to the world, and already knew my true identity, why did you choose to remain silent until now? My compatriots disclosed the situation, and they didn’t come to contact me either…”

"I don't trust you," Selena said very directly, "or to be more precise, I am full of doubts and fears about a being from outside the boundaries of civilization that mortals cannot understand, especially after seeing those related to you. After the fragmentation of the picture, I had to observe your actions for a longer period of time to determine whether you were harmful or not."

Gawain was a little dumbfounded, and shook his head helplessly after a moment: "Even if my arrival was actively facilitated by Gawain Cecil, even if it is very likely that I came to help your world?"

"That's right." Selena looked at Gawain calmly, with a gentle and indifferent expression on her face, but those eyes were so deep that they seemed to be invisible. In a trance, Gawain felt this calm and profound The eyes were a little familiar, and he remembered after a while that Veronica's eyes gave him a similar feeling.

He understands.

Selena Griffin is no longer the pure white lantern saint 700 years ago.

If it was Selena 700 years ago, even in the state of her soul after death, she would have a very high trust in Gawain Cecil, and she would be full of hope and expectation for humanity and the future, even if there was a "wandering outside the territory" "The person" suddenly came to the world, as long as she has the guarantee of Gawain Cecil, she will maintain the minimum goodwill and trust, but there is no if in the world - Gawain came to this world, with the help of Gawain Cecil Seven hundred years have passed since your body was resurrected.

At this time, Selena has no longer been blindly optimistic about the future, and has lost the slightest expectation of unfamiliar kindness. She has grown up with the dark sect and fought against the powerful forces above mortals. The indescribable, sudden existence is full of vigilance and suspicion, she suspects the "extraterritorial rogues", and even Gawain Cecil who made a deal with the extraterritorial rogues.

She was able to maintain careful observation for several years under such circumstances, which was already the result of the combined effect of reason and human affection.

After all, she has maintained a dark sect for seven hundred years as an archbishop, and she cannot always rely on being gentle, courteous, and thrifty.

"I understand your concerns," Gao Wen breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't have any grudges in his heart, "So now it seems that I, an 'outside wanderer', have passed your 'investigation'."

"The word 'investigation' seems arrogant, I can only say that your current actions at least prove that you have no ill will towards mortals,

This reassures me a lot, and the current situation leaves me with no choice but to believe. "

Gawain didn't bother with the details of these words, just smiled indifferently, turned his head, and looked at the already brightly lit night view of the city through the wide floor-to-ceiling windows.

Selena also quieted down, and also turned her head to look at this "Magic City" that is unique in the current era.

"What do you think about this city?" Gawain said suddenly. ,

"I was once uneasy about your arrival, especially when you built a large army in a short period of time, set off swordsmen throughout the southern border, destroyed the rule of the nobles everywhere, and completely turned the original order upside down. I even doubted you. The purpose is to bring war to this land and end civilization with chaos," Selena said softly, with a little self-deprecation in her tone, "This city may be the best mockery of my naive view...

"What you have ended is only the old order, and a new order has been built on the ruins, but it is difficult for people with old eyes to understand it for a while.

"As for my opinion of the city itself..."

Selena suddenly paused when she said this, as if she was sorting out her thoughts and language, and after a few seconds, she slowly said: "If we had known that such a city could be built in reality, why should we look for perfection in our dreams? country..."

"I'm afraid those old nobles who were beaten by me don't agree with this sentence," Gawain couldn't help but joke, "In their minds, there should be nothing more chaotic, depraved, and depressing than this Cecil City. city."

Selena thought for a while, and nodded in agreement: "That's right."

Gawain turned his head to look at her slightly, and said casually: "Since many things have been made clear, you don't need to be too nervous when you are with me, and even if you want, you can treat me as Gawain Cecil Personally - after all, I have inherited his memory and I am happy to take all of him as part of the deal during this journey."

Selina looked at Gawain with deep eyes for a moment, and then slowly said: "I'm not Bertila, I don't have the heart like her.

"In my eyes, you are just an outsider occupying my friend's body, no matter how much you inherit from this body, you are an 'extraterritorial wanderer'.

"But this is Gawain Cecil's voluntary choice, and it is not anyone's fault, so I will still try to regard you as a reliable ally, and will also regard you as a reliable monarch in the future. Of course, when in front of outsiders , I'll also treat you as Gawain Cecil, and won't reveal anything that shouldn't be revealed.

"Just other things, please forgive me for being difficult to do."

"That's right... that's fine," Gawain listened carefully to the other party's words, and suddenly revealed a smile in his thoughts, "When 'Gawain Cecil' has been around for a long time, you occasionally remind me of my true self... Maybe it's not a bad thing."

Selena cast her gaze unexpectedly and said softly, "You have more 'human nature' than I thought..."

Gao Wen smiled, noncommittal, and after a few seconds of silence, he brought the topic back to the right track:

"When do you plan to start operations on Sandbox No. 1? When do you plan to formally contact me and announce the news of cooperation with extraterritorial rogues to more members of the cult?"

So far, only the archbishop and Pope Megall III know about the appearance of the "extraterritorial wanderer" on the spiritual network, and nothing has been leaked. This effectively avoids more panic within the Eternal Sleeper Order, but it is really coming. When taking action on Sandbox No. 1, there will be a lot of people involved, and there will be many bishop-level managers or high-level technical priests directly involved in more core affairs. It is impossible for cooperation to be concealed, at least it will spread among the core personnel.

And with Gawain's "incorporation" and "reformation" of the entire Eternal Sleeper Religion, soon even the lowest-level Religion members will know this part of the news.

In view of the effective brain supplements and internal propaganda of the "extraterritorial wanderers" by the Eternal Sleepers all the time, Gawain believes that after the news is made public, it will definitely cause a wonderful chaos within the Eternal Sleeper Order - it's a pity that he has limited free time recently. Otherwise, you will definitely enjoy two days in the spiritual network.

Selena could only see the stability on Gao Wen's face, but could not guess the skin of the other party's heart. She answered very seriously: "In two days, we will convene the Supreme Bishops' Conference again, and I hope you can also participate. At the same time, according to the plan, We will disclose information in an orderly manner until then, keeping confusion to a minimum.

"As for the official action on the No. 1 sandbox, we hope that the sooner the better - we have completed the transfer and preparation of personnel, and we can start anytime after the meeting, but I don't know if you still need to prepare anything and whether you need our cooperation. ,understand situation……"

"I have nothing to prepare, I have already done what I have to do," Gawain said casually, "If you can act after the meeting, then I can participate directly. As for understanding the situation... You don't need to worry about this. I've always known your situation very well."

Hearing Gawain's last casual sentence, Selina's expression suddenly became a little stiff, but she quickly returned to normal.

Gawain didn't pay attention to this detail, and just continued on his own: "Besides, you should also think about the future. After the crisis in Sandbox No. 1 is lifted, some troubles have just begun. ."

"what do you mean……"

"The identity of the extraterritorial rogues in the real world is 'Gawain Cecil', and Gawain Cecil is the ruler of the Cecil Empire; the headquarters of the Eternal Sleeper Order is located in Typhon, among the middle priests Some of them are converted and converted Ares priests and even Typhon nobles," Gawain said, "I believe these members are loyal to the Eternal Sleeper, but do they still retain that proper... patriotism and loyalty to the king?"

Seeing that Selena didn't answer for a while, Gawain continued:

"I believe that the original members of the sect, including you and Megall III, as well as a considerable number of high-ranking priests, adhere to the path for ideals, but you should also know that as an ancient and dark sect, there are not only idealists among you... …

"Cooperation with foreign wanderers will sooner or later reach the ears of middle- and lower-class believers. These middle- and lower-class believers may become eternal sleepers only for money, power, or even a little knowledge. This kind of person, Don't look at them as being in a cult, but if there really is a 'evil god' in this cult, they might run faster than anyone else.

"By then, do you think these people will go to Rosetta Augustus to report that there is really a 'evil god' in the cult they joined?"

Selena was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly.

"We have also considered this," she said. "Since the development of the order, the members are no longer as pure as they were at the beginning. The establishment of cooperation between 'outside rogues' and the order will definitely attract a large number of middle and lower-level believers and priests. It has caused turmoil in China, and it is not ruled out that some members who are not determined and too panic will turn to Typhon's official forces.

"We have made preparations for the hidden dangers in this area, and we cannot rule out giving up some of our strongholds, transferring the church headquarters, and conducting internal..."

"You don't need to tell me the specific measures," Gawain raised a hand and interrupted Selena, "You can handle it yourself, I only need the result."

Selena nodded: "...I will relay your words to His Majesty the Pope."

Then she bowed slightly and took a half step back, "If you have nothing else..."

Before she finished speaking, Gao Wen suddenly stopped her: "Don't rush to leave, I have something I want to ask you by the way."

Selena looked at Gawain suspiciously and blinked: "Excuse me."

In the interplay of stars and lights, Gawain looked at Selena Geerfen's calm eyes, and slowly, those eyes overlapped with another pair of big eyes in his mind.

"What is your relationship with Patty?"

(Happy New Year everyone~~)
