Luo Lei and Alyssa walked around the Holy Cathedral. As long as the attractions were open to tourists, their footprints were everywhere.
Although many of these churches were built two or three centuries ago, they are also equipped with many modern technological products, such as surveillance cameras, etc. Those who do not obey the rules will soon be stopped and taken to
Public areas.
Luo Lei asked the old guy to carefully explore the inaccessible places, and found a total of more than a dozen suspicious places, not just the tallest spire that Alyssa mentioned.
…
In Huadu City, Mayor Pang Shengchang finally emerged from the shadows. It turned out that he was framed and did not participate in the formulation of compensation for the demolition of the old city.
The phone rang. It was his old leader, the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, calling.
"Old leader!" Pang Shengchang was in a good mood, with joy in his voice.
"Shengchang, you did a good job!" The old leader praised him first, and then changed the topic and said: "I remember telling you at the beginning, don't get too tense with Cheng Wei and the others. Although the current situation is not right
He is at a disadvantage, but no one can guarantee that he will step down because of this! Once things come to a head, he has been operating in Huadu City for so many years, how can you be your opponent when you are just here?"
Pang Shengchang was stunned for a moment, then immediately said: "Old leader, you have misunderstood! You know me, when have I ever gone against your ideas? This matter really has nothing to do with me. As far as I know, it is a company with a strong background
The company participated in the bidding for the old city reconstruction project, and later found out that Secretary Cheng Wei and several other leaders were suspected of fraud, so they took action against him!"
"It really has nothing to do with you?" the old leader asked.
"It really doesn't matter at all!" Pang Shengchang continued: "I also contacted several companies at the beginning. Maybe it was the integrity I showed that made them think I was a reliable person. Once I was squeezed out, they would
It’s definitely hopeless to bid!”
The old leader was silent for a while on the phone and said: "It seems that you really don't know! Do your job well, don't take care of what you shouldn't, but you must take care of what should be taken care of to the end. Remember?
"
"Remember!" Pang Shengchang said loudly.
These words may sound like nothing more than an elder's advice to a younger generation, but in fact they have a profound meaning. Only people like Pang Shengchang, who have been in the officialdom for several years, can understand its meaning.
The old leader meant that he should never interfere in anything related to Cheng Wei; but as soon as Cheng Wei had signs of his downfall, he would immediately jump out and take over some things, desperately building momentum for himself to come to power.
…
As night fell, Alyssa had fallen into a deep sleep. A long battle on the bed had exhausted her energy. Luo Lei dressed himself up very lightly, then jumped out of the window and flew with his sword.
Soon, he arrived at the suspicious places he judged during the day. Some of these locations were underground, some were in places with a high level of defense, and one was simply the fountain in front of the cathedral.
The reason why I suspect this fountain is that there are not only artificial passages under the pool, but also some strange components. Because there were too many people during the day, the old guy didn't have time to investigate carefully, so he made another trip at night.
The mystery of this fountain lies in the statue in the superstructure. Every Christmas, the egg-shaped statue on the top is split in two from the middle, and a baby appears inside, which is the legendary birth of the Holy Child.
This kind of small mechanism may seem like nothing now, but this fountain was built in the 18th century!
After careful investigation, Luo Lei determined that the components in the secret room below had nothing to do with the holy water, and were entirely to satisfy the automatic opening mechanism of the egg above.
It was considered a bad start, but he still went to the next suspicious location with great interest.
In this way, I searched one after another, and finally only the highest place was left, and the rest were eliminated.
"Old guy, is the one at the top reliable?" Luo Lei asked.
"You'll know after you see it!" the old guy said: "There is only one way to go up, and that is to fly up, and the eight-foot Qiong curved sword flies up with the spiritual soil vessel, you hide in the spiritual soil vessel. Otherwise
If you do, you will be discovered. There are at least four Seraphim as guards there, and there are highly sensitive alarm devices outside every window."
"Listen to you!" The reason why Luo Lei agreed to his plan was because he almost suffered a loss from Leson Mei last time, so it would be beneficial to listen more to the old man's words.
He dove into the spiritual earth vessel and asked Qin Ming to help control the eight-foot curved sword. The sword shrank into a dagger, and the spiritual earth vessel was tied to the tassel of the sword, and the invisibility function was turned on.
A very inconspicuous-looking dagger rose into the sky and flew quickly to the highest point of the church.
The windows around the high platform were closed, and only the ventilation system at the top could enter. The eight-foot curved sword and the spiritual earth vessel quietly passed through the steel fence of the ventilation pipe opening and landed on the marble floor.
This is a somewhat empty room, with an area of about sixty square meters. It is octagonal in shape, surrounded by windows. In the center is a statue of God, which is about four meters high and nearly four meters away from the roof.
There is a fifty centimeter-wide wall pillar between the windows. In front of the wall pillar, there are either green potted plants, or vases about one meter high, and a clock made of mahogany.
Luo Lei carefully observed the statue in the middle. To be honest, he didn't appreciate this statue. Because apart from its height, he really couldn't fault it for any other advantages. Although the facial depiction of the character was very detailed, it did not make God
Show the proper demeanor.
At least, that's how Luo Lei feels.
Also, the material used for the statue is ordinary marble, not a high-end material.
Placing such a large statue on a tower with a height of more than 100 meters, and with such a high level of defense, isn't this a waste of time and money?
"Old guy, did you find anything valuable?" Luo Lei asked.
"The two vases next to it, as well as the clock, are considered antiques and are worth a lot of money!" The old guy said, "The statue in the middle is solid. It's nothing but stone. It's worthless!"
"Oh! Have you been fooled again?" Luo Lei was unwilling to give in. He finally found several places where holy water could be stored, but all of them failed.
"Boy, someone is coming! It should be the Seraph they call!" the old guy said.
"Fuck, I'm so careful, how could I be discovered?" Luo Lei asked.
"Well..." the old guy said a little embarrassedly: "There is an electrostatic device on the ground. Once someone steps on it, the alarm will be triggered!"
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"I just discovered it! I thought it was the most common static electricity, but it turned out to be a mechanism!"
"Damn it! I'm so angry and have no place to vent my anger. They came up just in time. I want to see what those birdmen are capable of!" Luo Lei was really angry. He searched aimlessly all night, so that he
I feel very unhappy.
Furthermore, since I came to Europe, apart from fighting with that low-level vampire Dirk, I haven’t fought with a real master yet. It’s so exciting!
He just stood there carefree in the center of the room, right in front of the statue, waiting for the other party to arrive.
The four Seraphs approached quickly. Luo Lei looked back at the vase placed in front of the wall pillar and said to himself: "This should be something from the Ming Dynasty. If a fight starts soon, it will definitely be affected. It would be a pity to break it. Since it is
We took them from our ancestors, I must take them back!"
In his opinion, anything related to cultural relics and antiques were stolen from China by foreigners. In fact, foreign trade was very successful during the Ming Dynasty, and these vases are products of that period.
The vases have been put away, so why not put away the clock reluctantly? Who makes me sincere?
Just after doing this, four Seraphs appeared in the room. The leader was a big man over 1.9 meters tall. He asked in a cold voice: "Who dares to break into the Holy Land of our Holy See!"
Luo Lei said through the translator: "Your uncle!"
Then, he opened the demonic energy with the help of the old guy. There was nothing wrong with it. Qinglong was too cruel at that time, and it was very difficult to fully activate the demonic energy. Fortunately, the old guy helped, otherwise it would be really difficult for him.
Did it.
"Demons!" The leading Seraphim felt the demonic energy emanating from Luo Lei's body and said sternly: "You little demons dare to break into my holy land, you are doomed!"
The so-called demonic energy is also the legendary dark energy. These religious members who claim to be the incarnation of justice, like the so-called decent sects in China, always like to describe people who have different views from themselves as demons.
Luo Lei did not answer and took the lead in launching the attack. The Yin Yang Bell rose into the sky and made a strange sound.
The minds of the four Seraphs were attacked by the Yin Yang Bell. The four of them gritted their teeth, pulled out their long swords and stabbed Luo Lei.
Using the combination of Dark Stealth and Snake Technique, Luo Lei quickly dodged and avoided the simultaneous attacks of four people.
Darkness swallows!
A puff of black smoke instantly enveloped the entire room, and the originally light-free space became truly invisible.
"Light Technique!" the leading Seraph shouted, and something similar to a flash bomb exploded, but the light was fleeting and easily swallowed up by the air of darkness.
Black Dragon Lightning!
A purple thunderbolt with a diameter of more than 20 centimeters appeared out of thin air and hit a Seraph. Coupled with the effect of the Yin Yang Bell, the guy was hit so hard that his limbs became stiff and he lost his ability to move.
Eight-foot curved sword!
Uh-huh...
With a flash of sword light, the Seraph's head moved!
"Abominable demons, you must die!" The leading Seraph launched a fierce attack, wanting to avenge their dead companions.
