Chapter 235 The Pope's Request

Xu Nian didn't relax for too long, because an uninvited guest suddenly appeared here.

Cardinal Yu Zigeng.

Xu Nian felt surprised, but also took it for granted.

Wang Xue and Zuo Qiuyue were naturally alert, especially Wang Xue. She didn't expect that her secret safe house was completely under the sight of the Glorious Goddess Church and had never been truly safe.

Yu Zigeng looked at Xu Nian with a complicated look and whispered, "I want to talk to you alone."

Xu Nian was slightly stunned, and used his eyes to signal Wang Xue and Zuo Qiuyue to go back to the room. The two did not speak, nodded and left silently.

Yu Zigeng was still worried, and arranged a spiritual magnetic field to isolate the sound of the two people's conversation.

"Xu Nian, I came here at the request of His Majesty the Pope."

Xu Nian was shocked and did not speak.

Yu Zigeng took a deep breath and said, "Xu Nian, we know you want to go to the Dreamland, and we can help you with this."

Xu Nian was a little surprised, but he remained silent for a while and said, "What's the price? Or should I introduce you to Rofede?"

Yu Zigeng nodded carefully.

Xu Nian was silent again.

Although he had sensed the other party's desire for Rofede before, he really didn't expect it to be to this extent.

According to his understanding, Rofede is indeed mysterious, but judging from the abilities he has shown so far, the special features are teleportation and understanding of many secrets. If the other party is so anxious to find him, if there is any purpose, there will probably be no other requests.

Of course, the premise of all this is that Rofede has no hidden special abilities.

When he thought that Rofede had lied to him, he felt inexplicably unsure.

The most important thing is that he is currently very wary of the Glorious Goddess Church, especially after what happened in Crystal City last time. It is difficult for him not to wonder if the other party has any secrets.

Time passed by minute by minute, and Yu Zigeng saw that Xu Nian was still silent and did not respond, and he couldn't help but feel impatient and said: "Xu Nian, we have no ill intentions, if you have any..."

"Reason, I want to know the real reason."

Before Yu Zigeng finished speaking, Xu Nian interrupted and bit the word "real" very hard.

Rofede's face changed slightly and fell into silence.

After a while, he said with a complicated expression: "Xu Nian, are you sure you want to know? You know, once you know some things, you will have no way out."

Xu Nian smiled: "Bishop Yu, don't scare me, I'm not scared."

It's a joke. If I don't even know what you want to do, how dare I introduce Luo Feide to you?

Last time, I just agreed temporarily because I was concerned about your artifact.

"Okay, then I'll tell you,"

Yu Zigeng seemed to know that Xu Nian would say this, took a deep breath, and said word by word: "The goddess is about to run out of oil."

Xu Nian was stunned at first, then reacted, stood up with a snap and said in surprise: "You said goddess? Goddess of Glory?"

Yu Zigeng's eyes showed sadness, and he said: "Yes, after maintaining the Holy Sword Wall for many years, the power of the Goddess of Glory has reached its limit. In less than a month, no, ten days, the goddess will..."

"How is this possible!?"

Xu Nian's eyes flashed with disbelief, and he could no longer maintain his inner composure.

He thought the other party would give many reasons, but he never dreamed that the other party would say such shocking news.

Is the goddess going to die?

Is the goddess who protects the entire human race going to fall?

Is the last pillar of mankind going to collapse?

What should humans do?

For a moment, Xu Nian's mind appeared the scene of the collapse of the Holy Sword Wall and countless monsters in the wilderness invading the city wall and slaughtering countless compatriots. He was horrified and sweating.

'This, this. This.'

Xu Nian's hands sometimes clenched and sometimes loosened, and it was obvious how panicked he was inside.

Yu Zigeng seemed to have anticipated the change in Xu Nian's expression, but just waited quietly without saying anything.

After a while, Xu Nian's face was grim and he said, "How do you prove that what you said is true?"

Yu Zigeng sighed secretly, "You will understand when you meet His Holiness the Pope."

Xu Nian was stunned, thinking of the previous incident in Crystal City, and couldn't help but said, "So the experiment you conducted in Crystal City was for..."

"That's right!"

"It was to create a new demigod, but unfortunately it still failed."

Before Xu Nian could finish his words, Yu Zigeng looked at Xu Nian meaningfully, as if to say, this is still your good deed.

Xu Nian's mouth was bitter, and he didn't expect this answer at all, or in other words, he felt inexplicably angry and painful for a while when he stood on the moral high ground.

He was angry because although he couldn't accept the other party's behavior, he understood that if the other party was really for this reason, then everything was inevitable and there was no choice.

And the painful thing was that his power was still too weak. If he became a demigod, if he had the power of the Goddess of Glory, how could he be in this situation now?

"So do you understand? For the survival of the entire human race, we have no choice but to find Lofede."

"Why!?"

At this moment, Xu Nian's eyes were calm, and Yu Zigeng was a little scared.

It was as if he was not facing a pioneer with only three levels of strength, but a terrifying giant volcano that was about to erupt.

Yu Zigeng took a deep breath and said with concentration: "Lofede can find the divine cave. As long as he can bring the divine cave to the goddess, the goddess can not only stabilize the last afterglow, but also have the hope of taking another step forward."

Xu Nian looked at him indifferently, which made him feel uneasy, but he still gritted his teeth and said: "I can swear to heaven that not a word I said is a lie."

Xu Nian was silent for a while, and said expressionlessly: "I still can't completely believe what you said, but I can promise you to meet your Pope."

When Xu Nian just said the first half of the sentence, Yu Zigeng's face suddenly became ugly, but after hearing the latter part, he finally couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, na na "That's all. As long as you meet His Holiness the Pope, you will understand everything."

Xu Nian nodded without comment: "In that case, when do we leave?"

Yu Zigeng nodded and said urgently: "Every second of delay brings humanity closer to death, and the Pope is in danger to prolong the life of the goddess, so we must leave now."

Xu Nian nodded as if believing: "Okay, in that case, let's go."

After saying that, Yu Zigeng took out a black scroll, accompanied by an ancient spell that sounded silently in the void, and the black scroll suddenly burst into black light, and then the pentagram magic circle appeared under his and Xu Nian's feet.

In an instant, the two disappeared without a trace.
