Mukhtar spoke slowly as they walked along the road among the woods. After listening to his words, a priest beside him spoke.
"Sir, what should we do now? It's obvious that Shadi is no longer on the same page with us. He wants to sway between us and the heretics of Saint Linshan. This is too arrogant. We can't let him go on like this. We must take measures!"
Listening to the words of his men around him, Mukhtar paused slightly, then he looked at the sky outside the city in the distance, and then continued speaking.
"Wait a little while for the next round of negotiations. If Shadi hasn't made the right choice yet, we will help him make it. If he's still unwilling, I think there are many people in the Adus Revolutionary Army who are more suitable to be leaders than him."
After Mukhtar finished speaking, the priests around him couldn't help but feel excited when they heard these words. It was obvious that they all had accumulated dissatisfaction with Shadi.
"Can we finally get that Shadi guy down?"
"Treacherous and disloyal...there is nothing to sympathize with."
"A cowardly and weak person is not worthy of leading Adus..."
"Adus will belong to God. Even if Adus and I perish in the holy war against heresy, it will contribute to greater blessings...
"Even if the faith of the country of Adus only exists for a short time, it can help the Lord's reawakening and descent. The cruelty and viciousness of the heretics will be seen by the vast majority of compatriots in Northern Ukraine..."
After hearing that Mukhtar was planning to replace Shadi, the priests around him began to talk excitedly. After hearing the words around him, Mukhtar quickened his pace.
…
In Addis, in a hotel used to entertain foreign guests, in a room with luxurious carpets and magnificent decorations, which looked quite luxurious, Dorothy, who had taken off her headscarf, was sitting on a chair on the balcony, gazing at the huge city in front of her.
As "merchants" who arrived with the church, Dorothy and Nephthys were treated very generously and stayed in a hotel in Addis that was previously only available to foreign guests.
In order not to arouse the suspicion of Vanya's guards, Nephnis had assumed the responsibility of a "merchant" at this time, and took the purchased materials to Addis to sell them, while Dorothy stayed in the hotel, on the one hand to monitor the negotiation situation with Vanya, and on the other hand to control various intelligence of Addis.
For example, she watched the first round of negotiations that just ended not long ago and understood the depth of the conflict between the two sides.
'The conflict between the Saviour Adventist sect and the Holy Mountain Church... is really huge. Judging from the demands made by both parties, there is absolutely no room for negotiation. The bottom line of Holy Mountain is that Adus cannot publicly spread any heretical beliefs, while the Saviour Adventist sect must justify and legalize its beliefs... The differences are so huge that it feels like no matter how many rounds of talks we have, we will never reach a conclusion...
'There is also the attitude of Shadi. As the nominal leader of the revolutionary army, he did not make a clear statement in the end. It seems that he does not want to drag his entire new regime down with the fanatical followers of the Savior and Surrender faction. According to the results of the previous divination, the differences between them should be very big.
"What a pity... We can't go in and investigate this place at full capacity. Otherwise, we could rely on 24/7 surveillance to dig out more intelligence on both sides..."
Dorothy was sitting on the balcony, drinking ice juice and thinking this in her heart. Due to her previous experience against the Spider Fang Priest, Dorothy did not dare to use a miniature corpse to monitor her around the clock in front of a Red-Heaven Level Extraordinary Person, for fear that Mukhtar might be able to discover Dorothy's miniature corpse.
Similarly, since the intelligence from the church showed that Shadi had some secret weapon that could barely fight against the Red Order, Dorothy did not take the risk to monitor Shadi.
Dorothy is now in an important public occasion. If she fails to eavesdrop and is discovered, it will bring very dangerous and troublesome consequences to Vanya. So for safety reasons, Dorothy did not do the pervasive spying like before.
But in this case, Dorothy would have much less intelligence. Without more intelligence support, it would be difficult for Dorothy to help Vanya more during the negotiations.
"Huh... If I can't help, then there's nothing I can do... After all, this time there are naked lights on the scene, and my operating space is compressed. I can't be as free as before."
'There seems to be no way to reconcile the conflict between the two parties. It seems that it will be difficult to help Vanya negotiate and reach peace. If it is really impossible, we can only settle for the second best and ensure Vanya's safety...
"But... my main purpose in coming to Addis was not to promote peace in a country, but to obtain the advancement ceremony of the Red Rank. Fortunately, there is some progress in this regard..."
Dorothy thought so, and then looked out of the city in the distance. At the end of her sight, she could see a building with countless stone pillars, magnificent and huge, with obvious ancient Uffizi style.
There is the Three Saints Church of Addis Ababa and the Cathedral of Prayer Light.
After reading the books in the Addis Library, Dorothy learned that the Cathedral of Light was the oldest building in the entire Addis. The church existed in the earliest records of Addis in ancient times. It was said that it was once a heretical church and later changed to the Three Saints.
Dorothy, who knew the history of Beiwu, knew that this heresy was probably the Savior Advent Sect, which meant that this place was once the church of the True Lord, but later joined the Trinity Church. However, Dorothy also knew that the True Lord faith was essentially a branch of the Third Century Empire's state religion, just like the Radiant Church. Although the church had undergone countless renovations, it still revealed the architectural style of the First Dynasty, which was a product of the First Century.
Dorothy, who had read the works of the ancient Ufficial architect, mathematician and tomb robber Mr. Ballard, immediately realized what the church was used for before it was renovated. It should be a temple, a temple used to worship the gods of the First Dynasty.
This building, which is more than 7,000 years old, has been renovated countless times, but it still inherits its purpose of worshipping gods, although the gods worshipped inside are no longer the same as they originally existed.
As the oldest building in the entire Addis and a former temple of the First Dynasty, it is obvious that the secret of "Initial" is most likely hidden there.
However, Dorothy now faces some obstacles in her search for things there, because the Savior's Adventist sect has already occupied the place. After cleaning up the traces of the Three Saints inside, they restored it to a state where the Savior was worshipped alone, and turned it into their own camp for preaching.
