Chapter 46: Iris Emblem
The lights are flickering, and the remaining candles are dying.
The dim candlelight barely managed to open up some light in the tight darkness under the Franciscan Church, illuminating three lonely figures.
Vallentina's eyebrows were lowered, her expression was calm, her slender fingers held a sealed bottle with the tooth ring symbol on it, and a wisp of green smoke swayed and rippled in the bottle.
"Your Highness, it's time to take advantage of the special properties."
Behind Valentina stood a skinny old man wearing a violet yellow and complicated uniform of a court earl and aristocrat.
He has a humble attitude and meticulous etiquette, but his impeccable behavior brings endless indifference to people.
In front of the two of them, Bishop Byron, dressed in red robes, raised his chin slightly and had an expressionless face.
There was a hint of self-mockery on Vallentina's lips.
She held the neck of the bottle with one hand and the bottom of the bottle with the other. Under the eyes of the skinny old man, she drank it all in one gulp.
The characteristics entered her throat, coming from the spiritual imprint of her previous master. Valentina couldn't help but raise her forehead, close her eyes, and endure the mental impact with a pale face.
After a while, she slowly opened her eyes, but there was still unconcealable pain between her eyebrows.
"Thank you for your hard work, Lord Bishop Byron!" She lowered her eyebrows and said the dawn salute.
"All for the dawn!" Bishop Byron responded indifferently.
"Since Her Highness the Princess has taken the extraordinary properties, we won't bother you any more!" The skinny old man said goodbye, feeling completely relieved and unable to hide the excitement in his brows.
Bishop Byron said nothing and made a gesture of invitation.
After leaving the church's underground warehouse, Bishop Byron put them in a luxurious black car with a fleur-de-lis on it and watched them go away before Shi Shiran returned to his office.
"The church never interferes with the change of kingship. Why did it suddenly get involved this time?" A faint voice sounded in the office.
"This is not something you and I should care about. It is our duty to protect Francis well." Bishop Byron sat at his desk, picked up a piece of sealing wax and heated it on the candlelight.
On the desk, the knight pen automatically writes a report, and it is a ghost writing the report.
"The old king's health is getting worse day by day. Princess Valentina, the first heir to the royal family, is taking Beast Listener and will not be able to leave the forest for at least the next two years. Phew, I really can't understand what the Pope is doing."
The Harrington Kingdom is nominally ruled by the Harrington family.
In fact, the real owner of the Copperfield region, including the Kingdom of Harrington, has always been the Dawn Cult.
Every king must be crowned by the Pope before he can obtain legal right to rule.
However, having said that, the church rarely interferes with the change of royal power. To the extraordinary, secular power is like maltose in the hands of a child, sweet and easily available, but also dispensable.
Therefore, such interference is extremely rare.
"What I'm more worried about is that Lin Ennai was killed by the royal family..."
"That's enough!" Bishop Byron suddenly interrupted the faint voice: "Every extraordinary characteristic we take comes from fellow pioneers. Is it possible that every extraordinary characteristic contains conspiracy and blood?"
"I have summoned Lin Enling to inquire. This is a case of accidental loss of control. Don't speculate with conspiracy vision."
"Huh!" The faint voice sighed: "I'm just reminding you."
Remind what?
Alert him to the possibility of royal infiltration into the church?
Or to remind him that the Pope may have become corrupt?
Bishop Byron pursed his thin lips and remained silent, and the office suddenly fell into silence.
At this time, the sealing wax has been heated and melted.
Bishop Byron expressionlessly sealed the letter written by the ghost, applied sealing wax, stamped the private seal, and arranged a spiritual seal. Then he summoned the Bronze Gate of Hell and handed the letter to the messenger of the dead.
At this time, Princess Valentina's black car had not yet left the city of Francis, and the news that she had taken the Beast Listener had spread throughout the kingdom.
At dusk, a night owl streaked across the night sky, and its round eyes suddenly turned into horizontal pupils.
…
The fleur-de-lis coat of arms? This is the symbol of the royal family!
Ning Xiuyuan borrowed the eyes of the night owl and looked at the car that was gradually moving away, with a gloomy expression on his face.
The heart of the beast is a gift from Lin En.
Essentially, it is an ability stripped away from the extraordinary nature of the Beast Listener.
Once Linn's spiritual imprint is completely worn away, it means that the current owner has completed the integration of the Beast Listener.
By then, she will definitely be able to detect the lack of ability, and then sense his presence and receive the power he gave back.
This is something Ning Xiuyuan cannot accept no matter what!
Because losing the heart of the beast means that he will lose control of the striped sheep eyes!
What would this mean? No need to go into details.
"Lynn, could this be your intention? Do you want me to help you see if your successor is the murderer?"
Ning Xiuyuan breathed out, his eyes flickered, and a cruel thought was lingering and brewing in his heart.
…
…
The next morning, Ning Xiuyuan visited the church as usual, had breakfast, and then went to the mission hospital.
At the reminder of the pigeon sentry, he happened to meet Angela halfway.
"Ms. Angela, good morning!"
"morning!"
The two greeted each other and walked side by side.
"I heard that you successfully delivered a sow yesterday, is it true?" Angela looked curious.
"Well, there is such a thing."
"Wow, that's amazing!" Angela's eyes lit up: "Is there any skill in this? I have helped many sows before, but sometimes I can't do anything until midnight."
"Haha, it's just a fluke. This is my first time doing this kind of thing. I still need to explore and study it. If there are any results, I promise to share them with you as soon as possible." Ning Xiuyuan said with a smile.
"Really? That's great." Angela was overjoyed.
"By the way, I have some medical research that may require the use of some special materials. Does Francis have a similar market?" Ning Xiuyuan asked openly.
"What materials do you need? You can entrust other priests to help collect these things." Angela said.
Generally speaking, the special materials that extraordinary people bother to find are mostly materials produced in other worlds.
Only those who take special extraordinary characteristics can enter and search for these things.
Although others can enter with the help of some extraordinary items, the risk will undoubtedly increase greatly.
for example:
Hell, abyss, dreamland...etc.
"I'm afraid this is inconvenient. You should understand that my appearance puts me in a very disadvantageous situation. It may be difficult for me to entrust this kind of thing." Ning Xiuyuan said.
"I'm sorry!" Angela suddenly realized and said apologetically: "Then what materials do you need? Just tell me and I will help you find a commission."
"Actually, I want to see the wonders of the extraordinary world." Ning Xiuyuan said again.
"This..." Angela hesitated for a moment and said, "It's not that I didn't tell you. Francis does have an underground exchange. I've only been there once. To be honest, I don't recommend you go there."
"Why?"
"It's very chaotic there, with derelict police inspectors, wandering supernatural beings, believers in alien gods, and occult enthusiasts... all gathered there. To be honest, sometimes I can't understand why the church doesn't raze it?" Angela said.
Showing palpitations.
"you've been to?"
"Well, I had just become a transcendent. I was curious about the flowers of dreams and asked Father Bulwer to take me there." Angela nodded.
"Where is that place?" Ning Xiuyuan asked seriously.
"In a dream."
