"no."

Charles shook his head and said, "This church was built in the late seventeenth century. After the fog descended, it was abandoned until Saint Chloe led us here a few years ago and turned it into our home in the fog."

"The barrier that dispels the fog here was also made by Chloe?"

"That's right, only a saint can perform such a miracle." Charles' eyes showed fanatical admiration.

"Klo... When did your Saint come here?" No. 27 followed behind Lin Qiye and asked with a frown.

"About six or seven years ago." Charles replied, "If it weren't for the Saint, we might have been trapped in that 'human circle' forever."

"Were you previously kept in a 'human pen'?"

"Yes, it was a small world with an extremely dangerous environment. We could only gain strength by bathing our bodies in the blood of divine beasts. We could only survive by sticking together. The Knights were also established at that time."

Lin Qiye finally understood how these knights survived the fog. It turned out that they were all residents of the "human circle". In essence, they were similar to Amamiya Haruki and others, except that their power systems were slightly different.

At this moment, he seemed to have thought of something, "Then do you know Ji Nian?"

"Memorial? Is it the silver-haired girl?" Charles nodded. "Yes, she wanted to take us to Utopia, but we refused. We still hope to follow the footsteps of the Saint... However, she took one of our Knight Commanders away."

Lin Qiye's mind suddenly flashed with the blond knight he had seen in the Shangxie Society. It turned out that he was also a member of the [Holy Judgement Knights]? No wonder he could exert such powerful strength with just his physical body.

The four followed Charles and walked through the church for a few minutes, finally stopping in front of a closed door.

"The Saint is inside." Charles' voice was extremely serious. "Remember, once you enter, you must not make loud noises, do not try to wake the Saint, and do not get too close to her... Do you understand?"

"Waking up?" Hearing this word, Lin Qiye keenly realized something, "Is she sleeping? Or..."

"You will know after you go in."

Charles pressed his hands on the surface of the door, his arm muscles bulging, and the heavy door slowly opened under his push without making any sound.

Through the gradually widening gap in the door, everyone could finally see what was behind the door.

It was a spacious quiet room with hundreds of candles arranged around the room, illuminating it brightly. On the stone platform in the center of the room, a red-haired girl was lying quietly on the snow-white velvet surface with her eyes closed, as if she was asleep.

The moment he saw the girl, No. 27 frowned slightly under his hood.

That's Chloe?

Lin Qiye's gaze fell on the girl's face. Although she was still asleep, her face, which looked like a white jade sculpture, exuded an aura of tranquility and elegance, as if she was an elf from heaven, sacred and inviolable.

"What's wrong with her?" Lin Qiye asked in a low voice.

"The Saint Lady has fallen into a deep sleep."

"Sleeping?"

"We don't know the details. Before the Saint fell into a deep sleep, she told us that she needed to fulfill a promise... and asked us not to wake her up no matter what happened." Charles replied.

Lin Qiye turned around and glanced at No. 27, who had a frown on his face, not knowing what he was thinking.

"How long has she been asleep?"

"Five years."

Hearing this answer, Lin Qiye's expression was somewhat helpless. Since Chloe had been sleeping for five years and could not be awakened, how could he ask her about the files?

"Can I go up and take a look?"

"No." Charles' expression immediately became serious. "You want to see the Saint Lady. I have already met your request. Please do not disturb the Saint Lady's sleep and leave immediately."

Charles put one hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist and made a "please" gesture towards the door with the other hand.

Shen Qingzhu and the others looked back at Lin Qiye, seemingly waiting for his decision... After all, if Lin Qiye wanted to use brute force to snatch Chloe away, they could do it.

After a long silence, Lin Qiye nodded and said, "Okay, let's leave now."

Charles' expression relaxed a little, and just when he was about to lead Lin Qiye and others out of the quiet room, something strange happened!

The red-haired girl sleeping in the snow-white velvet saw her eyelashes tremble slightly. The next moment, a horrifying white light rushed out from her body, instantly submerging half of the quiet room, and rising into the sky like a flame!

Amid the dead silence of London's wreckage, a beam of white light tore the dark night in half.

When the white light appeared, the faces of Lin Qiye and others changed. Even Charles did not expect that Chloe, who had been sleeping quietly for five years, would suddenly release such a terrifying aura.

Amidst the surging white light, a shadow flew out and hit Lin Qiye's chest accurately!

Lin Qiye felt a black screen before his eyes and he immediately lost consciousness.

…

Fog.

In the reflection of the canyon.

A dark figure was sitting at the top of the canyon, holding a model of a mental hospital in his hand. His brows were furrowed, and chaotic rays of divine light were wandering around him, following the lines on his palms and seeping into the model.

At this moment, He seemed to have noticed something, and suddenly opened his eyes and looked somewhere.

“Yelander? No, that’s not right. This aura is much weaker… but it is definitely His power. Could it be an agent?”

【Chaos】put away the model of the Gods' Mental Hospital, closed his eyes and sensed it carefully for a moment, "He actually has an agent in this world... This is a problem."

[Chaos] was about to stand up when he saw the hospital model in his palm out of the corner of his eye. He hesitated for a moment... Even if Yeland had an agent, he was just a human. Even if he was left alone, it shouldn't be a big deal. The most important thing right now was to take complete control of this hospital.

After thinking for a long time, [Chaos]'s gaze fell on the foggy cliff opposite, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Truth, you removed the agent."

Amidst the swirling mist, a figure in a black robe slowly walked out. He glanced at Chaos coldly and asked, "Why should I listen to you?"

"Yelland's power is very troublesome, and it may have an impact on us... As one of us, shouldn't you contribute your own strength to this matter?" Chaos said slowly, "Or... are you just simply stalling for time with me?"

[Chaos] narrowed his eyes slightly, and a terrifying sense of oppression enveloped An Qingyu.

An Qingyu frowned. He stared at Chaos for a moment, then turned away and walked out of the mist.

"You can test me, but this is the last time..."
