Chapter 526: Suicide Note! (160,000 Words Long Chapter!)

Chapter 526 Suicide Note! (16,000 words long chapter!)

The VIP car stopped outside the Naton family villa and did not go too deep.

Neo turned off the car and reminded: "Don't use the concealed formation when you are not on a mission and driving. Do you know how much spiritual stones it consumes?"

Karen didn't say anything and rolled down the window to get some fresh air.

Neo continued to persuade: "Besides, the war between the Moon God Cult and the Samsara Cult has not ended yet. These two cults were originally the export places of the two main attribute spirit stones. The war has caused the price of spirit stones to rise across the board. So it is different from before, and you still have to save what you can. I can see from your smoking habit. Alas, you are a person who has never experienced hard times and don’t understand this truth."

Karen could only fight back: "I just think that as long as I don’t increase leverage investment and spend normally, I shouldn’t have the day to go to the rooftop."

"Listen, this is your fault again. As a boss, I am talking to you about reason, but you are here to attack me personally.

Who am I leveraging for? It’s not so that I can lend you the points one day earlier so that you can buy back all the war equipment on the [Black Prison Castle] Come? Isn't it to decorate your office beautifully and make you live comfortably? "

"If you are really so shameless, I have nothing to say."

"Facts speak louder than countless arguments."

"By the way, when will the modification of my second-hand Pence be completed?"

"It's almost done, it's almost done, why are you rushing, after this series of cases are done, our status will be higher, and those favors can be better used to offset the price, right?

Even if there was no favor originally, wouldn't it become favor again? "

"Is this considered corruption and bribery?"

"The better the performance of your car, the more helpful it is to carry out work and crack down on illegal and criminal activities in the church? Out of public interest, it's low-level to say corruption and bribery. "

Neo waved his hand, picked up the cup and drank a sip of water.

At this time, a black crow flew to the car window.

Seeing this, Neo said, "See, you should have closed the shielding array earlier. If you keep it open, the message crow may not be able to find you. Fortunately, this crow is of a higher level and uses very expensive spell paper. Damn, it must be Bernie's!

To be honest, I really don't like rich bosses. If he is rich, he often doesn't like money, which will leave me no loopholes to exploit; look at you, you are so lucky to have a boss like me."

"Yes, I am very happy."

Karen reached out and grabbed the black crow, opened it, glanced at it, and handed it to Neo. This crow was originally sent to Neo by Bernie.

After reading it, Neo laughed and said, "Ha, what did I say? Complex questions often hide the simplest solutions. Let's go to the restaurant and meet our poor Mr. Darius."

"I think things may not be that simple."

"It's okay. When you meet him, you should pay attention to see what his real purpose is. In short, we won't lose, right?"

"Yeah."

Karen restarted the car and drove to a nearby high-end restaurant.

After telling the waiter Darius's name, the waiter led Karen and Neo into the box.

A middle-aged man was sitting there with a menu and ordering food. When he saw Karen and Neo come in, he stood up and smiled, "You two are here so quickly."

Neo walked up to shake hands with Darius and said, "Because we originally wanted to talk to you, Mr. Darius."

"Then we are thinking the same thing. Come, please sit down." Darius said while pouring water, "I noticed Captain Karen in the broadcast. I envy your temperament in real life. Perhaps, being a diplomat is also a good way."

"Thank you, I have always been very curious about diplomatic affairs."

After Darius sat down, he handed the menu to the waiter next to him:

"We are all here. Let's serve the food now. Tell the kitchen to hurry up."

"Okay, sir."

After the waiter left, Darius took out a cigarette box from his pocket and introduced:

"The cigarettes that the senior priests of the Thunder God Cult like to smoke have always been special products for internal supply. Only a few are sold to the outside world. Under normal circumstances, they are not available. Do you two smoke? Do you want to try it?"

"I have heard of this cigarette. The ones that flow into the market are very expensive. The price is ridiculously high." Neo stood up, took the cigarette box from Darius, took out a cigarette and handed it to Darius: "Here."

Darius took his cigarette from Neo and said, "Thank you."

"You're welcome."

After speaking, Neo took the cigarette box over, took out two cigarettes, one for himself and one for Karen, and placed the cigarette box in front of the two of them.

Karen took out a lighter from his pocket and lit it.

The first puff, immediately a force directly entered his body, and then a slight numbness began to stimulate his nerves. No, to be precise, even the soul felt a sour and itchy feeling similar to fingertips wandering on the back, which was extremely ecstatic.

Then he slowly exhaled, and the feeling began to fade away. Even the whole person's emotions were completely aroused, making people unable to stop.

With just this one puff, Karen believed that this cigarette must be very expensive, many times more expensive than the coupon cigarettes that Ventura helped him get from the hotel before. It is no longer a cigarette, but a high-end psychotropic drug.

"Oh oh oh~~~"

Neo next to him made a long and comfortable sound. Neo has been looking for this kind of spiritual potion for a long time, but most of the low-end and mid-range ones can no longer give him the stimulation he needs.

"I am impressed by the strength of your souls."

Darius picked up the lighter and lit the cigarette in front of him, then put it in front of him, lightly fanned the smoke with his hand, took a slight breath, then took a long breath and put the cigarette aside.

When Karen and Neo saw this, they looked at each other: This is embarrassing.

Dalis smiled and said: "Since it is made like a cigarette, it can definitely be smoked directly, but the requirements for the strength of the smoker's soul are relatively high, so I can't bear to smoke it directly.

If you two like it, I still have one that I have dismantled, and the remaining 10 packs will be given to you when the time comes. After all, if you smoke like this, it is a waste. "

Neo said: "I'm sorry about that. Mr. Dalis, you can express it directly to our headquarters building and have the Discipline Inspection Office sign for it."

"No need to go to such trouble. I received a letter from your office to assist in the investigation. After this meal is finished, I will go back home first, bring out the things, and give you the gifts when I return to the headquarters with you."

Neo smiled and said: "Since we are assisting in the investigation, we do not limit the specific location. It is just more convenient to return to the headquarters building, but if the investigation results have been achieved, it will be the same everywhere."

"Is that so? Thank you." Darius crossed his hands on the table. "Then let's get started. Don't worry, the conversation here is absolutely safe and no one will eavesdrop. Besides, I am the person under investigation and you are the investigators. "People, there is nothing in our conversation that we are afraid of being eavesdropped on, right?"

"Okay, let's get started. The food hasn't been served yet." Neo glanced at Karen, who took out a notebook and a pen.

"I will try my best to cooperate."

"Okay, Mr. Dalis, let's first..." Neo hesitated for a moment, then leaned forward, moved his face as close to Dalis as possible across the dining table, and asked, "Dalis Sir, let’s be direct, okay?”

"Of course, as a diplomatic priest, I have long been disgusted with the repetition of diplomatic rhetoric that does not make much sense."

"We need your help to bring down your father, Bishop Dolfo. We want Bishop Dolfo to be imprisoned, tried and, ideally, sentenced to death."

"If my father is really guilty, I think it is my duty to assist you in your investigation. After all, although he is my father, I am also a devout believer in order."

"Okay, then what is your view on Vicolay and your brother Trison?"

"Vikolai has already been tried. I believe in the majesty and sanctity of the Whip of Order Tribunal. As for my brother Trison, isn't he under investigation? I believe in the results of the subsequent investigation and trial."

Neo nodded, meaning there was a chance.

Karen wrote in the notebook: "Too calm, like an outsider. It's not like he's seeking revenge because of his wife's affairs, but more like he has other things to rely on."

Neo glanced at Karen's notebook, as if checking Karen's records for further questioning.

"Mr. Dalis, do you have some criminal evidence about your father? I think, as a family member, you should have some clues that are difficult for our external investigators to obtain."

Dalis shook his head and said: "My father's character is very arrogant and domineering, and his methods of doing things have always been very selfish, but he basically does things within the scope of the bishop's authority. As for the kind of criminal evidence you want... it can be directly linked to Very little comes to my father, it can even be said to be almost none.

Because he only needs to sit there, and there is basically no need for him to do anything himself. "

"Really none?"

"Father may know more than half of what happened to Vicolay, Trison, and other people attached to our family, but the blame cannot be implicated on him. At most, it lies with his son and subordinates. , that’s the end.

Therefore, it is really difficult for you to convict your father from this aspect. "

Neo changed the question and asked: "Then can you give us some ideas and inspiration?"

"I can't talk about enlightenment. In fact, this is what you will do next. My suggestion is to omit the middle step, because it is really difficult for you to get involved in the affairs of my father's men and family. He might as well just find some big charges to pin on my father.

For example, he is suspected of colluding with other religious religions and betraying the interests of the religion; apostasy is one of the most serious crimes. Then the crimes of other people around my father can be linked to him, from top to bottom, It’s always easier than bottom-up. "

Neo shook his head and said: "We still hope to have some definite evidence."

"Sometimes evidence is needed, and sometimes it is not. I know that the Regional Management Office and your Whip of Order are now working together to sacrifice my Naton family.

The reputation of the Nadun family and my father's reputation are now at their lowest, and no one from above will try to catch him at this time.

At this time, political means will be more effective than procedural justice.

Simply speaking from the perspective of my son, I feel that my father is very sorry for his position and his beliefs. It is natural for him to be brought down. "

Neo heard the implication and immediately asked: "What do you mean?"

Dalis nodded and said, "I am willing to serve as a tainted witness to report that my father had secretly colluded with the Thunder God Cult to commit apostasy."

As soon as he finished speaking, Dalis took out a document, put it on the dining table, and pushed it in front of Neo and Karen.

"This is about the interests of my family and the people related to the Thunder God Cult on my behalf. Some of them are secret cooperation, and some are tacit understandings on the surface. How should I put it? There are suspected behaviors of taking advantage of the position to gain benefits for the family, but most of them are hidden rules of the position, but these hidden rules are not allowed to be seen in the light.

In fact, now it only takes a suitable reason to bring down my father. This reason and this witness will be done by me.

And the God Cult should not stimulate the relationship with the Thunder God Cult for this matter, so the trial may be conducted in secret, so that everything can be handled quickly, at least there will be no scene like last time where Captain Karen needs to use the artifact to testify.

What do you think of my proposal?"

"I think it's good." Neo nodded, "It's much better than the best case I expected."

Karen wrote in the notebook: His real purpose is not to avenge his father, but to destroy his own family.

Neo glanced at it and continued, "If things go this way, you need to go through the process again and we will accept it as soon as possible. Do you think it's okay?"

Dalis nodded and said, "It has to be quick, because my father should be trying to contact a great being related to my Naton family's ancestor."

"I heard this from Trissen and Vicolai. They said that there is a temple elder behind the Naton family."

"They are bragging, although the temple elder does exist and is said to have spoken when my father was competing for the position of bishop.

In fact, that person is just an ancestor of my Naton family, who should be my great-great-grandfather. My father and I had a friendship, that's all.

I don't think that after my father contacted him, he would speak for this matter again. Even if it is the worst case scenario for you, it doesn't matter, because it was me who reported my father.

From the perspective of that great being, even if the people who should be arrested in the Naton family have been arrested and sentenced, I, the reporter and tainted witness, can at least be preserved, and even have some credit.

As long as the Naton family is not uprooted and not completely wiped out, the great being should be able to turn a blind eye to this matter. "

Karen pursed his lips and stopped recording.

He believed that Neo could also feel the horror of Darius Naton sitting in front of him. At this time, if he simply thought that he was taking revenge on his father for his wife's affairs, it would be an insult to their IQ.

He even considered the family's biggest back-up reaction. He really wanted to reshuffle the entire family.

There were footsteps outside the box, and the waiter began to serve the dishes. After the dishes were served, Darius picked up the red wine bottle and asked, "Would you like to drink a little? Just wish us success in advance?"

Neo nodded and smiled, "Why not?"

The three raised their red wine glasses, clinked them lightly, and then drank them all.

Darius continued to pour wine and said, "If you two have any questions, you are welcome to ask."

Neo shook his head and said, "There is nothing to ask. We just want to focus on the work at hand. Of course, if we can become friends in the future, we can chat more easily."

"Okay, you are welcome anytime."

Next, everyone started to eat.

Karen and Neo were just eating with them, while Darius ate quickly and attentively. Soon, he finished eating. When he picked up the napkin to wipe his mouth, he said apologetically:

"Sorry, I haven't tasted the dishes from my hometown for too long, and I couldn't help it. I originally thought that I could eat well before you came, hehe."

"Being a diplomatic priest, living abroad all year round must be hard." Karen said.

"Not that hard. There are too many people in the Church who are contributing to the Church in a more difficult environment. I am not that hard. Oh, by the way, there is one more thing."

"Please go ahead." Neo changed his sitting position.

"If you want to bring down my father more safely, then it is best not to treat him with capital punishment when prosecuting. This is not me pleading for my father, but I want to avoid accidents as much as possible and not touch the sensitive nerves of other factions in the Church. In order to better cooperate with the Whip of Order and the Regional Administration Office in the future, I suggest that the main appeal is to remove all my father's positions and attach a confinement for reflection.

Such appeals can be accepted by many parties and can be implemented more safely.

Of course, I know that from your perspective, you must hope to sentence my father to death, preferably the kind of "obliteration".

You should hope so, but I think your boss may not think so."

"Thank you for your reminder, Mr. Darius." Karen said.

"You're welcome. This is what I should do. In fact, I really hope my father can die. But my father is different from others. If other bishops encountered such a thing, they would have written a suicide note and chosen to commit suicide for the last bit of dignity.

But my father is not a person who would commit suicide. He would try his best to live a healthy life out of spite.

So, we don't need to expect him to write a suicide note saying that he would choose to commit suicide after being sentenced, stripped of his position and imprisoned.

This beautiful situation will not happen. "

Having said this, Dalis raised his glass again:

"After drinking this glass of wine, we will get busy. I hope it can end soon. I want to read a book quietly by myself."

Karen and Neo also raised their glasses, and everyone drank the last glass of wine.

Dalis said as he put on his coat: "You two can wait here for me. I will come back when I go back to get some things. It may take a while. I want to say goodbye to my family."

"It doesn't matter, you can do whatever you want, Mr. Dallis."

"Okay, thank you for your understanding."

Dalis walked out of the box, and soon, the waiter brought a fruit plate and drinks to the box, which must have been ordered by Dalis when paying the bill.

Neo waved his hand and arranged a simple barrier:

"Now it seems that the most sane person in the Naton family is actually a cuckold."

Cuckold in the Venn cultural language has the same meaning as the "cuckold" that Karen is used to, but the origin is different. The word originated from a story in the Venn royal family many years ago. In order to satisfy herself, the queen often recruited men. The waiter went into his palace to serve him. Because the queen inherited the throne, her earl husband had a low status and had to make compromises in this regard.

In order to avoid embarrassment and "tolerance" to each other, the Queen's maids will use the color of their hats as a signal when the couple has breakfast. If they choose to wear a green hat, it means that a man from outside will come in today, and the Earl will Will actively avoid providing "office space" after breakfast.

After this story spread, the cuckold also took on a special meaning.

Karen picked up the ice water and took a sip, and said: "I even have some doubts now that his father might have some reasons for doing such a thing to his wife."

Neo looked at Karen in disbelief: "Oh, my God, do you know how twisted and perverted what you just said is?"

"Have you seen the document? It was sent to our headquarters by his chief officer. Unlike Trison's evidence chain that is full of shit, his side seems a bit too clean, just like the one he handed to us. A piece of evidence, most of which are unofficial job income, just like the tea fees we used to charge the protected persons when performing security tasks. "

Neo picked up another cigarette and prepared to light it while saying:

"If a normal person is placed in that abnormal family, will he appear abnormal if he is too normal?"

Karen responded:

"Sometimes, the one who looks the most normal may actually be the most abnormal."

"Then let's continue waiting here. If nothing else happens, the matter should be handled quickly. By the way, that Trison should be sentenced to be obliterated. The other one is left to me to practice. Don't play around with it anymore. ”

"It's a pity. Can't we really kill Dolf?"

"You're afraid that if you can't kill him this time, something will happen to him in the future. There's nothing you can do about it for the time being. Let's knock him down first. Learn from Vicolai. We'll think about it after a few years when this matter is over. A way to finish him off.

Anyway, as long as we can keep doing well, we don't have to worry too much about those people who secretly stare at us with hatred. Those people only dare to rush up and bite you when you are down. At other times, they are more cowardly than anyone else. sharp.

Okay, okay, you want another one too?

There is no need to worry about this anymore, his son has said that it is impossible for Dolf to commit suicide by writing a suicide note for the sake of dignity. "

…

"Are you tired?"

"Not tired."

"Actually, you should listen to me and sit there and rest. I can handle this matter by myself."

Philomena looked at Richard and said, "You have no right to tell me to do anything."

Richard shrugged. He had long been used to the way the girl in front of him spoke.

However, without her help, he would have to work until dawn on these corpses.

After everything was settled, Richard stretched and said, "This is not far from the night market. Let's go have a late-night snack?"

Philomena stopped.

Richard continued: "I'm hungry and I want to go for a late-night snack."

But Philomena still didn't respond.

Hey, what's wrong?

Richard walked forward and found Philomena staring at the corner of the road ahead, where an old woman stood.

The old woman was holding a cane in her hand and wearing a brown robe, and she was also looking here.

"Who is she?" asked Richard.

"My grandma."

"Your grandma? Oh, she is..."

At this time, Richard felt a gust of wind appear beside him, and immediately continued:

"She is your favorite and kindest grandma that you often mentioned?"

"Young man, I don't believe that my granddaughter would say good things about me outside. Don't provoke the feelings between our grandparents and grandchildren."

"How could it be, grandma." Richard scratched his head and pretended to be innocent and innocent, while turning to look at Mrs. Fisher.

Mrs. Fisher took a breath, noticed the mark on Richard's palm from the corner of her eye, and asked:

"That piece of trashy snack from Guman's house?"

Richard immediately said: "Yes, it's me! Hello grandma, I have always wanted to visit you, but I have never been able to find the opportunity, hehe."

"Your grandma definitely doesn't want you to visit my house."

"It's okay, I can come here secretly without telling my grandma."

Mrs. Felsher laughed out loud when she heard this: "Your grandma is such a strong person, but she is not angry to death because she has a grandson like you, haha."

"My grandma is much softer now, and she has let it go a long time ago." Richard responded.

Now grandma treats Karen as her own grandson. Last time she bought a divine robe, she even bought her own size in Karen's size.

But this is also good. Richard feels that he can't make grandma proud, so let grandma get a sense of substitution and pride from Karen, which is the same.

Philomena said: "Grandma, what are you doing outside?"

Mrs. Felsher looked at her granddaughter and asked in confusion: "Can't I go out?"

Philomena shook her head.

Richard immediately replied: "Yes, of course, the elderly should go out more often and breathe fresh air, so that they can live longer and healthier. Grandma, you should go out more often."

"Shameless thing, who are you calling grandma?"

"You and my grandma have a good relationship, so I just called her to make it seem close."

"Hehe, the relationship between your grandma and I is really not good, but there were not many elderly people who survived in the past, so there were fewer people who could talk to each other in disguise.

In the past, the relationship between your grandma and I was very bad."

"That's all the things of the previous generation. In fact, there is nothing that can't be seen through, right?"

"Your grandpa Grandpa was not as talkative as you, so he just rolled up his trouser legs and went to catch loaches for barbecue. If he had a mouth like you, he would have saved a lot of effort. "

"Well, my grandfather is really smart. Pretending to be dumb and unable to speak is also a kind of impression, isn't it?"

"That's possible. At least he coaxed your grandma into his arms. I still don't understand why your grandma likes him. How could she choose a frog on the ground after seeing a dragon flying in the sky?"

Richard responded: "Maybe it's because my grandma knows what is suitable for her, and that dragons will not belong to her."

Hearing this, Mrs. Fersher's eyes suddenly turned cold.

Richard's feet were suspended in the air, and he was completely imprisoned.

Mrs. Tang Li had said the same thing to her, and now her grandson was actually saying it to her.

This pair of grandparents and grandchildren really mocked themselves in this aspect, and they had a tacit understanding!

"Boy, I don't mind twisting off your head and putting a fruit basket in it to send to your grandma."

Philomena stood in front of Richard and looked at her grandma: "You went out, not to see me."

"Of course, I went out this time to meet a little friend and to see you by the way. Well, I should go. You haven't been home for a long time. Come back to see your father after you are done. Hey, your father."

After Mrs. Felsher said this, her figure disappeared from the spot.

Richard's restraints were lifted and he landed.

"Your grandmother has a bad temper." Richard said, "Well, let's go have a midnight snack first."

"Wait a minute."

"What's wrong? Is there anything else?"

"Didn't I tell my grandmother that you are a waste?"

"Oh, haha, yeah."

...

"You have grown up, and you are no longer the little Darius who knelt in front of me."

Darius walked to Mrs. Felsher and knelt down: "You don't seem to have aged at all."

"Don't say insincere compliments, I don't like to hear this."

"Yes."

"The Naton family is going to fall down."

"No, it's going to collapse."

"You are really a good child of the Naton family." Mrs. Felsher sighed as she walked forward.

Darius stood up and followed her.

"I don't know what I was thinking at the time. I actually decided to help you. Maybe it was because your grandfather made me feel very uncomfortable at the time, hehe."

"I think this should be a kind of destined fate."

"Maybe, fate. Sometimes, it's not wrong for people to live a little selfishly, right?"

"Yes, that's right."

"Even if because of you, the qualifications and fortunes of the blood relatives in the family are absorbed, making the Naton family an outlier in the entire regional church circle and a mad dog family, it is worth it, right?"

"Yes, as long as it is good for me."

"Well, now I remember why I stopped in front of you, why I spoke to you, and why I asked you if you wanted to do this.

Because at that time, although you were just a You are a child, but I see a strong selfishness under your gentle eyes. "

Darius smiled when he heard this and said, "I think nothing in this world can be hidden from your eyes."

"Now, there is only the finishing touch. The flower of the Naton family is about to wither, and then a brand new you will be born."

"All these are from your accomplishment."

"Go and thank your family. They have made too many contributions for you. Although they may not know about it, no, your father should have noticed it, right?"

"Yes, he noticed it. He said that he started when I was eight years old. Every time he stayed with me for a long time, he would feel irritated. He also said that he wanted to kill me.

However, how could he really discover your wisdom and secret skills? He couldn't do it. "

"He didn't kill you, not because he didn't realize it or couldn't do it, but because as a father, he couldn't bear to do it to you.

Your grandfather was a scumbag, and your father was a scumbag too.

But one thing they all have in common is that they really have nothing to fault when it comes to treating their own families.

To be able to make a scumbag, just to get revenge on you, just sleep with your wife and let your wife give birth to a child for him, but still can't bear to kill you, this is really a father's love like a mountain. "

"maybe."

"Do you regret it? Even a little bit briefly."

Darius shook his head, smiled, and said, "It's just a dream, why bother."

"Okay, very good. The most important thing is to keep walking firmly on this road. One day, dreams and reality will be reversed. The you in the dream will wake up, and the you in reality will return." .

Dalis, I am very satisfied with you, you are my best successor. "

"Everything I have comes from your gifts. I thank you from the bottom of my heart."

"No need to thank me, I'm just using you as a test subject. Seeing your success is the greatest affirmation for myself."

Mrs. Fisher took out a scroll and a black stone:

"This is the final volume of the secret. This stone can help you better distinguish between dreams and reality at the end."

"Yes, I will succeed."

"I'm sure you will."

"I also hope that you can succeed."

"Of course, I still feel that the curse that fell on my house was specially arranged by him to help me.

Haha, he is always like this. He obviously likes me but doesn't like to say it out loud, but I can feel that he still cares about me, he still dotes on me, and he loves me. "

Darius said nothing. When a woman is recalling the love she never got in the past, it is best not to break her mood, because she does not need you to tell her that this is false. She actually knows it in her heart.

But Mrs. Fisher asked: "Aren't you curious, who is the 'him' I am talking about?"

"Madam, is this something I can ask?"

"You can ask, but I won't tell you. In fact, he also had a relationship with your family."

"Have you ever had anything to do with my family?"

"Do you remember where I met you?"

"At a very special funeral in my memory."

"Well, I wanted to come see him."

"Is that his funeral?"

"Hehehehe, hahahaha..."

When Mrs. Fisher heard this, she burst into laughter, so much so that she doubled over with laughter.

Dalis stood on the edge, feeling a little at a loss when facing this scary old woman.

Finally, Mrs. Fisher stopped, she took a deep breath and looked at the black sky in the distance: "Don't tell me any jokes, no one can attend his funeral, because no one can kill him.

He is a giant dragon soaring in the sky. Once you have seen his true appearance, when you look at other people, you will feel that they have all lost their color. "

"He's a great guy."

"Okay, you can shut up. I don't really like sharing things about him with others. How I wish he would always belong to me alone."

It was you who asked me to ask, and I was just cooperating with you.

But Darius could only apologize: "I'm sorry, I said the wrong thing."

"Okay, go back and prepare for the ending. I'm waiting for your results, don't let me down. Although you have lost your family, you will gain a stronger self.

Sometimes, family is meaningless and can even be said to be a burden.

When you are strong enough personally,

you alone,

It's a family! "

"Yes, I understand."

Darius saluted Mrs. Fisher and walked home.

Mrs. Fisher stood there for a long time. She wanted to see the moon tonight, but because of the bad weather tonight, the moon was hidden in the dark clouds and could not be seen.

"Sigh... It's rare to have a reason to go out. You don't even show me the moon. What a bully."

…

A middle-aged man is sitting on the beach, busy with the barbecue in his hand. It can be seen that his skills are a bit rusty, but his attitude is extremely serious and meticulous.

Beside him, stood a woman, wearing a long black dress, looking dignified and luxurious;

If Pu'er were here, she would be able to recognize her immediately - Siti.

And often when Pu'er mentions her, he will give her a prefix nickname - Sidi the Faceless Man - in accordance with the "pirate" habit.

It means, this woman is so shameless!

More than a hundred years ago, she had a conflict with Pu'er, which caused Pu'er to suffer a lot.

More than a hundred years later, in order to help Pu'er vent his anger, Dis personally hung her on the cross on the top of the church in front of many priests of the Kosmos who rounded up him and let her blow for a while.

As a woman, if you suffer a loss outside, it is natural for you to find a man at home to help you vent your anger.

During the chase game between Pu'er and Sidi, Sidi also called people from the Cult of Order to help contain them, otherwise Pu'er might not be caught by her.

Therefore, Pu'er has always felt that it is natural for him to find someone to stand out!

After all, she was the one who cheated and found someone in the first place, and the person she hired was her junior Dis who Pu'er had grown up watching.

In short, in Pu'er's narration with Karen sometimes, it is Siti, the woman who is so shameless!

"I'm sorry, Siti, my barbecue skills have deteriorated too much. I used to be very confident in my skills."

"Rohan, don't say that. The smell of your barbecue has attracted the attention of the dog's nose, and it even chased it here with drooling."

The middle-aged man Luohan turned around and looked behind him.

There, stood Foden's figure.

"Our whip holder is really elegant. Why, he came all the way here to have a barbecue?"

Foden saluted Rohan and Sidi in turn. Although he was a whip bearer with a high status, the status of the two people in front of him in the divine religion could no longer be measured by their positions.

"Meet Elder Luohan and meet Elder Sidi."

Sidi didn't have a good impression of Foden, so she turned aside and ignored him. She was indeed qualified to make the whip bearer look down on him.

Foden took out an official letter and said: "Originally I wanted to send someone to deliver it to the temple, but I learned that the two elders left the temple, so I had to come over in person to deliver the official letter."

Sidi snorted coldly and said, "It seems that our whereabouts really cannot be concealed from you, the whip bearer."

"Protecting the safety of the elders is the responsibility of the Whip of Order. I will leave the official letter here. Please take the time to read it."

Foden placed the official letter in a small luggage pile, and then noticed a silver mask placed on the luggage pile.

Because there was a clear wave of formation energy coming from this silver mask, as if it was being called.

"I will take my leave without disturbing the two elders."

Rohan raised a squid and threw it backwards, but Foden caught it.

"Come here, let's eat a bunch."

"Thank you, elder."

Foden disappeared from the spot while eating squid.

Sidi looked at the blue sea in front of her and sneered:

“I never thought that one day, when we came out of the temple to get some air, there would be a dog that could follow us directly.

Rohan, it seems like times have really changed.

But the blame lies with Rasma, who resigned so quickly and completely that we lost the time we could have prepared and arranged.

well,

This high priest really wanted to keep the temple in a pen like a pigsty. "

Rohan smiled and said: "Do you really think it was an accident that Rasma resigned so quickly? Why did he give us time to prepare? I think he did it on purpose."

"Was what happened on Mink Street intentional?"

“Without Mink Street, Rasmah would have found other streets and caught us all off guard with a quick transfer of power.

People say that Rasma is old-school, but I never believe it. A child raised by a prostitute must be full of rebellion in his heart. "

"So, did he hide in Mink Street on purpose?"

"The most realistic lie is a partial truth. The most convincing accident is a deliberate coincidence.

However, there is no point in talking about this. We can't go to Mink Street to find Rasma and find out.

He is there, blocking all information and exploration, just to tell us not to bother him. Haha, I can't imagine that the high priest who doesn't even dare to sit down in front of you is so determined and strong.

Oh, by the way, everything on Mink Street cannot even be penetrated into the collective divination by the best fortune tellers in the church. Although that person is asleep, the quilt he covers is really too big. "

"He said he wanted his family to live in peace," Siti said.

"Then satisfy him. His request is not too much. It will only last for a few decades at most. For us, it is not too long. I will never look down on a person with a temper, as long as he has the ability The ability to put up with his temper.

Obviously, our ‘Elder Dis’ has it, hehehe. "

"It's such a shame that he didn't enter the temple."

"Don't you hate him, Siti? I thought you would hate him very much."

"If you are humiliated by a person who can condense three fragments of the godhead, then you are humiliated. What's the point of hating? You can't beat it with your fists, and you don't dare to tear your face apart, so you can only suffer."

"Oh, your temper is indeed much better than before."

"how about yours?"

"I don't have a bad temper to begin with."

Rohan stretched out his hand, and the silver mask placed behind him levitated and flew in front of him.

"It is calling you, no, someone is calling you through another mask, but I remember you, you have no heirs, and you have not left any inheritance outside."

"Yes, that's right, but I have friends. There are three masks like this in total. They are all friends of life and death who we explored, traveled, and did tasks with when we were young. They are all very good people.

Do you think it's strange or not? I have obviously been in the temple for many years. It can be said that the time I have lived in the temple is much longer than the time I have not been in the temple.

However, the clearest memory in my mind is from before I entered the temple.

The time I spent with my friends back then seemed like it happened yesterday, alas. "

"You were the only one who entered the temple, right?"

"Well, one of them died in an accident when he reached middle age. The other 'Naton' had the hope of condensing the fragments of his godhead behind me.

It's not easy for him, really, it's not easy for him.

In order to successfully condense the fragments of his godhead, he tried every means to extend his lifespan and pursue the slightest possibility. I, who had already entered the temple at that time, also helped him a lot through my connections.

He is lucky, because before his lifespan is completely exhausted, he finally sees the dawn of condensing the fragments of his godhead. If the fragments of his condensed godhead are successfully brought in by the gate of the temple, he will receive a huge extra lifespan. In the past, Your dedication and perseverance are all meaningful.

But he was unfortunate. On the eve of the dawn, he had an accident. "

Siti asked: "Failed to unite successfully?"

"It was an accident." Luo Han's eyes showed a trace of regret and helplessness. "I still haven't found out what the cause of the accident was. In short, he is dead."

"Did it fail?"

"I don't know. But I remember that when he had an accident, the door of the temple seemed to tremble, as if it was preparing to receive him."

"Do you doubt that he actually succeeded?"

“It’s impossible to say for sure, either it’s a failure or it’s a success.

But he died.

I only saw his body, not the fragments of his godhead.

If he succeeds but still dies... Haha, who can kill him, and kill him almost silently.

I can only think that he failed in the end.

Otherwise, I can only accept another fact, that is, he was killed after successfully condensing it, and the fragments of his godhead were also taken away.

Not only am I unable to accept this fact, I believe that you, including the Temple, cannot accept this fact. "

"Yeah, that was scary."

"There are three silver masks in total. There were three of us, one for each of us. The one who died unexpectedly in middle age had no heirs, so I took over his mask."

"So now it's the descendant of the person who failed to unite, calling you through the mask left by his ancestor?"

"Actually, no, the mask they used to summon me belonged to the man who died in middle age. I gave it to them. The mask of their ancestor... I didn't find it."

"did not find……"

"Maybe he was hiding somewhere and left so suddenly that he didn't have time to tell future generations. I can only think like this."

"Yes, that's all I can think about."

"Do you want to read that official letter? I'll read it for you. I think the dog brought it in person must be its owner's intention."

"I already know what it means without looking at it. Did you watch the trial broadcast that day?"

"I just finished my duty and went out with you to relax. Do you think I've seen it?"

"I looked, haha, when I saw that last name, I looked. Nadun, that's the last name of my good friend."

“But I’ve heard something about it, and it seems interesting.”

"Yes, he was able to take the position of bishop. During the competition, I spread the word that as a descendant of a former good friend, he should be taken care of."

"What about this time?"

"Our high priest sent that dog over to warn me not to stretch my hand again in this matter."

"What do you mean?"

"It's already like this, why should I reach out? A group of unsatisfactory guys make it impossible for me to compete with their ancestors, and it will make me even more angry.

Besides, the high priest has been deliberately teasing the temple, just to wait for the reaction of us old antiques.

Rather than reforming the lower levels, he hopes to carry out operations on top.

However, he is different from Rasma, he is not Rasma. We can bully a child raised by a prostitute, but we cannot bully him, and we dare not bully him! "

"Is he really Lord Tiranus's... inheritor?"

Tiranus, the founder of the Cult of Kosmos, personally composed "Symmetra" and single-handedly built the system of the Cult of Kosmos that continues to this day.

If any branch god has an absolutely transcendent and special status in the Cult of Kosmos, it must be Lord Tiranus.

To deny him is to deny the Cult of Kosmos itself.

Inheritors are not uncommon within the divine religion, and there are not many inheritors in the world today, but Lord Tiranus's inheritor is definitely the most special one.

"No one knows, there is no result in divination, no clue in deduction, the oracle is unclear, and even the more senior elders, guardians, maintainers, guardians, etc., they can't give an accurate answer.

Maybe he is, but maybe...he's not.

But who can...who dares to really break up with him.

If he is really the one, the result of the quarrel is that everyone in the Temple of Order needs to kneel at his feet and re-explain their loyalty to the Temple of Order!

Hehehe, hehehe.

Forget it, just think of him as him, okay? "

Rohan reached out and held down the silver mask. The silver mask instantly froze, blocking out all calls.

"I follow the will of our high priest and don't go against him. My descendants are so rotten that my friend won't blame me for not taking action. He will be the first to advise me not to deal with these scum again. It’s too dirty and embarrassing to take another look at it.”

"You are actually feeling uncomfortable in your heart, otherwise you wouldn't go out to fish or barbecue."

"Because this was our favorite activity before. After a difficult task, the three of us went fishing, caught fish, and grilled them, and drank some wine. Well, not too much wine.

Fatigue, fear, all these things disappeared."

"Now, do you still feel this way?"

"I can't find it, I can't find it at all. So, now I understand why so many powerful gods in the records pursue the study of time taboos.

The more you live, the more you want to go back to the past."

...

"Master."

The old butler brought three maids.

"Yeah."

Dolfo responded.

The old butler understood and quietly left the basement.

The three maids stood respectfully in front of Dorfo.

Dolfo stretched out his hand, and three black mists instantly wrapped their bodies. They began to struggle and scream instinctively, but their bodies and voices could not break through the obstruction of the black mist.

Watching their struggle, Dorfo's originally uneasy and anxious heart finally got some kind of release and comfort.

Finally, the black fog dissipated, and three corpses appeared there.

Then, three shiny beads were brought into Dolfu's hands, and he put them into his mouth one by one like eating candy beans.

No need to chew, they melt in the mouth.

Although they were three ordinary people, inhaling them could not bring any specific changes to himself, but this process and this action could bring him peace of mind.

Children only imitate their elders.

Vicolai's qualifications were too poor, so poor that Dolfu felt incredible, so in order to pave the way for him, he personally taught Vicolai to indoctrinate himself in this way.

It's a pity that his grandson... heh, his son, ended up like this.

However, now is not the time to worry about him. What I have to consider now is to preserve my family.

So, I hope that the great you can respond to my call.

Dolfu waved his hand, and the three corpses were moved outside. He himself rearranged his clothes. After getting the soul supply, his complexion has become slightly rosy and normal.

This is like taking a bath and changing clothes. Dolfo hopes that the great existence can see him in his best state.

After confirming that the cleanup was completed, Dolfo knelt down and began to chant. The mask in front of him floated up and began to rotate around him.

"Great you, please listen to the call from the Naton family..."

"Great you, please save the Naton family who is in distress..."

"Great you, please give me another chance to the Naton family..."

...

In the restaurant box, Karen, who was drinking ice water and chatting with Neo, suddenly felt that the silver ring on his fingertips was a little hot, which had never happened before.

"What's wrong~~~~~~"

Neo, who had just taken a puff of cigarette, asked in a trembling voice.

"The ring is hot."

"Mask ring?" Neo breathed a sigh of relief and finally returned to normal.

"The mask my grandfather left me is also integrated into this ring."

"Oh no, your wording is inappropriate. It should be the silver mask left by your grandfather that occupies this ring."

"It's all right."

"How can it be all right? After wearing this mask left by your grandfather, you can directly pretend to be an elder of the temple. The mask made by Lemar is indeed excellent, but not to this extent."

"Can we discuss something useful?"

"Oh, yes, why is it hot?" Neo put his face in front of Karen's ring and sniffed it. "I sensed the breath of the formation, but it's not obvious. I may be wrong."

Karen's mind moved, and the silver mask appeared and floated up.

Neo immediately said: "It's obvious now, the aura of the communication array, a very advanced communication array, and it's set up very cleverly."

"That means someone is calling me?"

"Well, it should be."

"But who could it be?"

"Maybe it's your grandfather, maybe your grandfather has woken up?"

"If my grandfather wakes up, will you go and lie there instead of my grandfather?"

"If it can have the same deterrent effect, I am really willing to take his place and sleep forever, so that I feel very accomplished when I dream."

"It can't be my grandfather."

"Are you so sure?"

"Because Uncle Mason has the phone number of my funeral home."

"Oh, by the way, it's true that technological progress is good. It's more convenient to make a phone call than to set up a communication array, but who is calling you, and now. That, do you want to answer it?"

"You'll know if you answer it." Karen pursed his lips. He was a little nervous. Compared with the pile of books that Mr. Hofen left for him, the things his grandfather left for him were not much, but each one was full of mystery.

Of course, maybe to Dis, it was just a dispensable toy, but to Karen now, it was like a child playing with a grenade.

"Take it, what are you afraid of, you're wearing a mask anyway." Neo urged.

In the face of such a fun and exciting thing, how could Neo make the opposite choice.

Karen took a deep breath and nodded. In fact, he was not hesitating about "taking it or not", but calming down his emotions, because he had to take it.

"Or, I can help you pick it up?" Neo suggested, "If you feel nervous."

"Don't you worry about what will happen after you put on this mask?"

"Nonsense, of course! Can't you hear that I'm speaking sarcastically! My last name is not Inmerles, what I mean is, you should pick it up quickly!"

"Don't make a noise."

Neo immediately shut up and stopped making any sound, but his eyes continued to urge Karen.

Karen grabbed the silver mask in front of him, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled, and slowly put it on his face.

The next moment,

Karen's consciousness felt like it was being drawn into a deep vortex, and as his consciousness continued to deepen, the vortex began to shrink rapidly.

Finally, Karen found that his "sight" became a little dim, as if his consciousness was drawn into a new and unfamiliar environment;

Soon, he saw an old man kneeling and praying to him, and when the old man raised his head, Karen recognized him-Bishop Dolfo Naton!

What on earth is going on?

Bishop Dolfu was praying and summoning, but the one who responded to his summons was actually himself?

Karen suddenly remembered that both Vicolai and Trissen had said that his family was related to a great being, and Darius also said that his father was trying to summon a temple elder who had a relationship with his family's ancestors.

So,

why was the temple elder not summoned, but he was summoned?

What secrets are hidden in this silver mask that my grandfather left for me?

No,

Now is not the time to think about these things, take care of the present!

In other words,

Bishop Dolfu is now... praying for help from me?

Ha,

Ha,

This damn absurd world.

...

Dolfu raised his head and saw a huge bright red ball of light appearing in the center of the formation, with strands of golden stripes on it.

Yes, it was exactly the same response as when he competed for the position of bishop, the same breath, the same dignity, the same inviolable sacredness!

The temple elder, the great being, finally responded to his call!

Dorfo cried with joy, and his tears really flowed down. He said sincerely from the bottom of his heart:

"Thank you for responding to my call, thank you for not giving up on the Naton family, thank you for your kindness and generosity, thank you for your grace, the Naton family can be saved, please save the Naton family, please save the Naton family!"

At this time, Dorfo heard a cold voice coming from the gilded red light ball:

"You disappoint me so much."

"Yes, it's us who are not up to the task, we are not decent, we are too useless and too stupid. Please, give us another chance, give the Naton family another chance, they are going to tear the Naton family apart completely, and let our Naton family never turn over again.

Please, give the Naton family another chance, please."

Dolfo knew very well that since the great existence responded to his call, it meant that he would take action on this matter.

The voice in the gilded light ball sounded again:

"For the last time."

"Yes, yes, for the last time, for the last time! Please believe that after this lesson, the Naton family will be reorganized and will not worry you, embarrass you, or disappoint you again. I promise!"

"I will operate this matter from above..."

"What about me? Do you need me to cooperate with you to do something? As long as I can save the family, I am willing to do anything. No, your will is the mission I will complete at all costs!"

"You need to make things bigger so that I can operate from above. It is no longer a conflict between the Whip of Order and the Regional Administration, but a conflict between the High Priest and other factions.

This is the only way to save the Naton family."

"Please tell me what I need to do, and I will swear to complete it!"

As long as the family can be saved, even if it means entering the vortex of political struggle at the level of the High Priest, Dolfo will not hesitate.

Because the Naton family had nothing to lose at this time. He knew very well that his second son was right. The Whip of Order would definitely attack him next, and the regional administration was obviously planning to abandon him.

After waiting for a while, Bishop Dolph, who had not heard any specific instructions, carefully raised his head secretly. When he found that the huge gilded light ball was still there, he immediately calmed down and lowered his head again, looking extremely pious and excited.

"Disclose your suicide note to the entire church."
