Chapter 107: Hyperion thinks he is a bit sick
On the campus of Ikerite College, the quiet forest paths are like sparkling emeralds. The autumn sun shines through the gaps between the leaves, drawing picturesque patterns on the bluestone road surface.
Hyperion, who was originally walking on the road leading to the Magic Institute, suddenly stopped, her amber eyes full of disbelief, as if she was doubting whether Lanqi was sane.
Her fingers clenched the corner of Lanqi's clothes tightly, as if she was afraid that he would jump off the cliff.
"How, how can we go and ask the cardinal of the Church of the Resurrection?"
Hyperion looked around, dragged Lanci to the edge of the forest path, and asked in a low voice.
This school.
No.
There has never been a mad student in this world who would go to visit the bishop of the Resurrection Church!! And even if we take a step back.
"The Search for the Tablet Holder" is not at all a lethal subject designed by Ikerit Academy for students to risk their lives on!
Hyperion knew that others might be crazy.
But Lanci is really crazy, he can do what he says.
She didn't dare to go, nor did she dare to let Lanqi go alone! "I really think we can do something big. There is an information barrier between the northern and southern continents. When the time comes, we can find a way to disguise ourselves, change our identities, cross the sea to the northern continent, and then infiltrate the extinction branch of the Resurrection Church."
Lanqi also whispered to Hyperion and explained,
"By then, if we can find a way to make use of our strengths and gradually rise higher in the church, we will have the chance to meet Bishop Asksan of Annihilation."
He became more and more excited as he spoke, as if he couldn't wait to start the planned project. "And Hyperion, think about it, since we in the Allied Nations have the rule of observing the stone tablets, then the Resurrection Church may also have a way for believers to observe the bishop's stone tablets!"
Hyperion was stunned by what she heard and stood there in a daze for a long time.
Then she covered her forehead and shook her head.
Hyperion didn't know whether she had become bad after hanging out with Lanqi for so long, or whether Lanqi's suggestion was indeed feasible, which led her to feel that this plan was not that dangerous compared to the night at the Demon Academy! The sea between the north and south continents was surrounded by a dangerous sea of ghosts, which was a super-large natural disaster caused by the failure of the ninth-order shadow world. It could not be naturally degraded for a thousand years.
The chaotic magical storms on that sea route made it almost impossible for spells to work, and also made it impossible to establish magical communications between the northern and southern continents. Information could only be brought in regularly by large merchant ships or by strong men crossing the sea.
So when the two of them went to the Northern Continent, they were almost like two newcomers who suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
If there is a way to capture a Resurrectionist from the southern continent and extract his identity information, it would be possible to legitimately infiltrate the Resurrection Church in the northern continent as a member! "…Lanqi, are you sure you really want to choose this topic?"
Hyperion swallowed and asked Lanci.
"If you agree, I'd like to choose it."
Lanqi nodded, his eyes clear and firm.
“…”
Hyperion bit her lower lip, feeling increasingly uneasy.
What she was worried about was not that it would be too dangerous for the two of them to infiltrate the Church of Resurrection, but that Lanqi was the source of danger.
She was not worried that after the two of them sneaked into the Resurrection Church, they would be found out and misunderstood by the Kingdom Alliance, as there were already people in the Kingdom Alliance who suspected them.
What really scared Hyperion was that according to her experience, once Ranch arrived at such a lawless place, he would quickly adapt and comprehend things that normal people could not learn, and evolve in a terrifying state! Hyperion was very worried that Ranch's hidden plan would accidentally become bigger and stronger, and he would be promoted to a high position in the Resurrection Church!
By then, the two of them would become notorious villains in the Northern Continent, and they would never be able to clear themselves of the blame when they return to the Southern Continent! But the way Hyperion stared at Lanqi was now.
I feel that even if I don’t go.
He will definitely find an opportunity to go find Bishop Silent.
Hyperion was even more worried about letting him do whatever he wanted on his own.
"...I really can't help you, I'll just go with you! Then tell me what your plan is?"
Hyperion agreed with a sigh, looking helpless.
She knew Lanqi must be up to something.
"Huprienne, you understand, right? As long as we can capture the Resurrectionists in the Southern Continent, we can use their identities to go to the Northern Continent and infiltrate the Resurrection Church there more easily."
Lanci asked.
"Yeah, I thought so too, but where can we catch the Resurrectionists?"
Hyperion nodded carefully.
It's difficult enough to defeat these mysterious cultists, let alone capture them alive and interrogate them.
Even if they are caught, there are national laws and regulations that prohibit private trial of cult members.
Because there have been cases where people have communicated too deeply with cult members and unknowingly fallen into depravity.
The kingdom requires that if cultists are captured, they must be handed over directly, also considering the safety of citizens.
"Huprienne, there must be spies from the Church of the Resurrection in our school. This is how they can snipe us in the Shadow World."
Lanqi's expression gradually became serious.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
It seems that he has been bothered by his failure to catch the criminal.
After the last time in the shadow world, Lanqi knew that it was not a coincidence that he happened to encounter the Resurrectionists who targeted Hyperion in the shadow world. There must be someone in the school who was watching them from afar without leaving any trace.
When they were heading towards the building that blocked the Void Gate that day, the spy used communication magic to pass the information to many believers. The believers began to match at about the same time, so that they would have a high probability of running into Hyperion's shadow world and then hunting her down in the shadow world.
"Do you want to catch the spy and interrogate him?"
After hearing this, Hyperion also felt a little nervous.
She clearly never felt any signs of being monitored, but as Lanqi said, someone in the academy must have leaked the information to the Resurrection Church.
"Don't even think about catching this guy for now. Even my teacher can't find him."
Lanqi shook his head helplessly.
Last time, Lanqi took advantage of Talia's good mood and reported to her that "there might be killers from the Church of Resurrection in the academy targeting him and Hyperion."
Although his words contained a certain element of "tricking Talia into doing work", he didn't expect that Talia would simply agree to investigate for him.
As a result, even with Talia's strength, after secretly observing the surroundings of Ranchi and Hyperion for a while, she did not find anyone monitoring Ranchi or Hyperion.
Then there is only one answer.
The spy must have perfectly integrated into the students, using the most primitive and impeccable way of ordinary observation - observing them naturally in daily life and paying attention to them silently.
This means that the guy will not leave any clues, and it is almost impossible to conduct a sting operation to arrest him.
Once Ranch and Hyperion go to the Shadow World, the information will be leaked to the Resurrection Church.
After listening to Lanqi's explanation, Hyperion felt nervous but also felt an indescribable sense of relief.
When she was a little panicked because she was unable to cope with an invisible watcher, Lanqi had already made all the preparations and had thoughtful responses to possible situations.
This feeling of having someone she can trust is something she could only experience when her father was still alive.
"Next time, I will have to go to your teacher to thank him..."
Hyperion said gratefully, but then her tone became hesitant again, "But...if I make her unhappy, you should thank her on my behalf..."
Although Hyperion was curious that there was such a powerful person in the world who could control a student like Lanci.
But she calmed down and thought that not everyone would be as friendly to the demons as Lanqi.
If a demon like me, who is hated by humans, rashly pays a visit to his home, it will probably only make Lanqi's teacher unhappy.
