Chapter 490 Discipline
In the interior of northern Ufeiga, Addis, the capital of the Kingdom of Addis.
In the afternoon, a thick dark cloud covered the sky over Addis. An atmosphere of depression and darkness filled the whole Addis, as if it was the prelude to something exploding, making the people of Addis feel uncomfortable.
Baruch entered the negotiation hall of the royal palace, where a tense confrontation was going on. When Mukhtar announced his goal, the tense atmosphere in the negotiation hall was immediately raised to its peak.
At this time in the negotiation hall, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the Savior's Surrender faction was going to use tough measures. The members of the church's special envoys drew their weapons and confronted Mukhtar head-on. Facing the special envoys in front of them, Shadi on the side showed a look of surprise, and he spoke to Mukhtar and the others.
"Mr. Mukhtar, what are you doing? This is not a negotiating attitude. Please be a little more careful..."
"Force is words, and words are force. In the so-called negotiations, we have exhausted all our words. Since you cannot understand and agree with our position... then we can only use these last words to solve the problem. General Shadi, you'd better restrain your men from now on and don't act rashly. Otherwise, we can't be sure whether we can avoid hurting you by mistake."
Glancing at Shadi beside him, Mukhtar continued speaking with a contemptuous attitude, then turned his gaze to Vanya and the others, and then spoke slowly in a serious tone.
"Heretical nun, and all your followers, what you are facing now is the glorious truth. Under the mercy of God, you have the right to convert to the truth. As long as you give up the three false beliefs immediately, I can spare you. So make your choice now! Convert, or perish!"
Mukhtar made a declaration to Vanya in front of him, and then issued an ultimatum to the other party. Facing such threats, Vanya showed no fear and just remained silent.
"I have been blessed by the Three Saints since I was a child. The Three Saints' true intentions have never been false. The Savior and the Three Saints are of the same origin and nature, and there should be no distinction at all. The Savior does not want you to go astray and end up on a path of no return, so I would like to advise you here to turn back while you still have a chance. Otherwise, there is only the end waiting for you and the entire Adus."
Vanya replied to Mukhtar like this, not only verbally rejecting Mukhtar's ultimatum, but also trying to persuade him at the last moment. The guards around her who were carefully selected also had firm expressions, and there was no fear in their fanatical eyes. They all held their weapons and stood ready to fight Mukhtar. Faced with such a situation, Mukhtar, who had already anticipated it, could not help but snorted coldly.
"Hmph... If that's the case, then go and see with your own eyes whether your three false gods exist or not..." Mukhtar said as she slowly raised her hand towards Vanya and the others in front of her. Just when she seemed to be about to do something, an accident suddenly happened.
Outside the huge negotiation hall, there were flashes of lightning all of a sudden, followed by bursts of thunder and loud noises outside one after another, which scared everyone in the scene and made them all startled.
Everyone had seen thunder before, and had heard it just now, but this kind of continuous thunder was the first time they had encountered it. It was obvious that there was something wrong. Although the atmosphere on the scene was tense, many people still turned their attention to the direction of the distant thunder after the strange thunder. Many people suddenly realized that the direction of the thunder seemed to be a little wrong, as if it was coming from the same direction. The people around Mukhtar even noticed that the direction of the thunder seemed to be the direction of their headquarters in Addis, the Church of Prayer for Light.
Relying on the bone object hidden beside Shadi, the undead Setut sensed the continuous thunder outside, and the whole spirit body seemed to show a slight movement. After sensing this movement, Shadi couldn't help but be startled, and then asked in a low voice in a way that only the undead could understand.
"What's wrong with you Setut?"
"It's activated... It's really activated. My premonition was not an illusion, not an illusion..."
"What illusion? What activation? Explain it clearly?" Listening to Setut's words, Shadi continued to ask in a confused tone. This time Setut paused slightly, and then continued to answer in a solemn tone.
"The city defense system left behind in Addis... or Radset has been activated. Someone has successfully entered the Qiwen Temple and activated the remaining system inside... Unbelievable... What I guessed before is actually true!"
Setutu muttered this, and Shadi could understand some of his words, such as the name Radset, which seemed to be the ancient name of Addis seven thousand years ago. He was not very clear about the Temple of Qiwen and the city defense system, so he continued to ask Setutu with a confused look on his face.
"What guess? What are you guessing? Does this have anything to do with the thunder outside? Could this be the accident that the nun mentioned?" Sadie asked. Last night, when he was discussing today's affairs with Sister Vanya, Vanya told him to wait for an accident at this time, and then act when the opportunity arises. He has always been curious about what the accident that the nun mentioned was, and now it seems... it is actually a thunderstorm!?
Did the nun in the church foresee this thunderstorm? What is the nature of this thunderstorm? For a moment, Shadi was extremely confused and could only consult Setut, who was with him. After a moment of silence, Setut slowly opened his mouth and answered.
"It's 'Qi'... It meets all the requirements. At least the Beyonder of 'Qi' in the Cretaceous stage solved the puzzle of the thunder number in the Qiwen Temple, entered the hidden room, and took over the Beyonder city defense system left by Radset. This thunderstorm was created by that Beyonder using this system!"
"What... 'Qi' Beyonder?"
Listening to Setut's words, Shadi was stunned on the spot. Having been in the secret world for decades, he knew what the so-called "initiated" extraordinary people meant. It was an extraordinary profession that existed in theory but had never appeared in the entire secret world. It was a huge blank in the modern extraordinary system. It was a forbidden field that countless people had explored but to no avail and instead were trapped in the swamp of poison identification. It was an ancient rumor that had been extinct for thousands of years.
For a moment, all kinds of thoughts kept emerging in Shadi's mind, and his expression was full of surprise. Most of the other people at the scene still had confusion on their faces. Many people were attracted by the continuous thunder outside. They opened the windows and looked in the direction of the sound in the distance. Then they saw a series of curved lightning flashing across the sky and falling in places that were blocked by buildings. Many people were wondering what was happening over there?
Mukhtar was very unhappy that his intimidation was interrupted by the inexplicable thunder. Looking at the continuous flashes in the distant sky, he frowned, then turned to the entourage beside him and asked.
"Go ask the people in the church what happened over there? What caused the thunder?"
Mukhtar spoke sternly to his men, and before they could respond to his words, a figure stumbled over from outside the door of the negotiation hall, and upon closer inspection it turned out to be a priest of the Saviorist sect.
"Mr. Mukhtar! There is an urgent report from the Qiguang Church!"
