"No, it seems that these people were in a hurry and did not prepare the means to deal with the souls. The spirits I buried beforehand did not work. Now I have taken back all the spirits, and will hold a ceremony to return them to Mr. Uta later."
Neveu responded while looking at Dorothy in the distance, and Dorothy continued speaking after pondering for a while.
"No time to prepare the means to capture souls? That's right... The schedule of the 'advance team' that I told those guys is quite tight. They need to act immediately to catch up. It is predictable that they don't have time to make these preparations. After all, the Eight Peaks is not a 'silent' association. If their plan is implemented smoothly, they will not be able to capture souls. Dealing with souls is at most a safety measure...
"You did a great job, Senior Neveu. Now all you have to do is return those spirits. I'll go back to Shaman Uta to thank you later, even though I didn't help."
"Okay, I understand. I will be back in Gramorn soon..."
After finishing the consultation call with Dorothy, Nephnis breathed a sigh of relief, and then she began to control her spirit wandering on the train to carry out the follow-up work.
…
At this time, in Gramorne far away, Dorothy sat on a chair in the hotel suite. After listening to Neveu's report, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Neveu's operation has finally come to an end. Now, the church's real vanguard has been imprisoned, and the fake vanguard has been 'replaced' as Yataka wished. In Yataka's eyes, everything seems to be in their plan..."
Dorothy thought so in her heart, and she sent Neve back to Tivian to help Greg and Adele attack and imprison the church's real advance team.
Then Dorothy asked Nephthy to use her corpse ring and the corpse brooch obtained from the werewolf Alex. The two corpse props were used together to control four corpses. In addition, Nephthy herself used her own soul to possess and control one corpse. In Dorothy's absence, a total of five corpses were created. With the equipment looted from the real advance team, they disguised themselves as an advance team and set out from Tivian Station.
During this process, Dorothy not only controlled Neveu's soulless body, but also provided Neveu's spirit with powerful external computing power through the consulting channel, allowing Neveu to outsource the huge computing power required to control five bodies at the same time to Dorothy. Dorothy used auxiliary calculations to allow Neveu to perfectly control the five bodies, and the level of vitality they showed was exactly that of a living person, just like Dorothy was controlling them herself.
These corpse dolls were specially prepared to be assassinated and replaced by the people of the Eight Points. In order to make it more realistic, Dorothy even asked Uta to summon some spirits from the New World that were easy to communicate with and obedient, and stuffed them into the corpse dolls to prevent the people of the Eight Points from checking and detaining their souls. Although these spirits are very similar to the undead, there are still many differences. If the means of detaining the undead souls are not modified, the effectiveness for the spirits will decrease. Therefore, Uta can easily summon them back according to the situation. However, this measure was not actually implemented. After all, the Eight Points is not a "Silent" association.
Such calculations can be concealed from the Eight-pointed Extraordinary below Cretaceous, but definitely not from the Red Clan. However, for the two Red Clan of the Eight-pointed, they have the responsibility to monitor the Mirror Moon Church at all times and cannot act rashly. In their cognition, the Red Clan of the upper-level alert faction of Put is secretly plotting against the church. They will not leave Gramoen at will, and the replacement operation for the advance group can only be handed over to subordinates. And the fact is indeed so. If one of them leaves Gramoen, Dorothy dares to use all her resources to force the ritual.
"The release of the real advance team needs to wait until the right time. Now the fake advance team has been replaced by a faker one. Next... let me see your performance."
Looking at the bright moonlight outside the window, Dorothy thought to herself that what she had to do now was to wait silently.
…
Time passed quickly, and soon the "advance group" from the Tivian Church arrived in Gramorn. At the Gramorn railway station, when five members of the "advance group" dressed in priest and nun costumes got off the train, they were greeted by the Gramorn Church. Of course, Vanya, the leader of the pilgrimage group, was also present.
After the meeting, the parties had a small meal together and introduced the situation to each other. The Gramorn Church suggested that the advance team rest for a while before investigating the situation of the temple, while the "advance team" said that they could go to the temple for a brief inspection first.
Finally, under the leadership of Vanya, the "advance team" crossed the wide surface of Star Lake and took a boat to the church in the center of the lake. In this church with a unique style, the "advance team" started their own investigation.
Then, in the eyes of Vanya and her guards, the five members of the "advance team" scattered throughout the church, carefully observing various details. After another inspection, a nun with short brown hair from the "advance team" came to Vanya and said to her.
"Sister Vanya, we already have a preliminary understanding of the general situation of this church."
"Um...you...seem to be called Sister Grey. May I ask what you have interpreted?" Looking at the nun in front of her, Vanya asked after recalling the name she introduced herself by before, and the so-called "Sister Grey" responded immediately.
"This church is a church of a foreign god. It belongs to a foreign god belief that once spread in the land of Put. The church in Put had almost consecrated the remains of this foreign god hundreds of years ago. I didn't expect such a large church to appear here now."
"A belief in a foreign god... I never thought that a church that has so many similarities with the Holy Church would actually belong to a foreign religion... I originally thought it belonged to some heresy..."
Listening to the words of the nun in front of her, Vanya couldn't help but think and responded, and at this time the so-called "Sister Grey" spoke again.
"Although this church is large, there is nothing super important inside. Sister Vanya, you don't have to waste too much time here. You can probably hand the church over to us now and continue your pilgrimage. We will survey it here while waiting for the follow-up personnel from Tivian to arrive."
"Sister Grey" said this to Vanya, and Vanya responded immediately.
"I'll entrust the church to you now... No, no, no, Sister Grey, there are only five of you here. Isn't it too much for such a small number of people to guard such a large church? Why don't we just help you guard it for a while until the follow-up force from Tivian arrives? We don't lack this little time. Safety is our top priority. We will continue the pilgrimage after the large force arrives.
"After all, the most important thing right now is to ensure that the consecration ceremony here is held safely and that this magnificent temple is smoothly returned to the glory of the Lord. No accidents can happen, so we can put the pilgrimage aside for a while."
Vanya said this to "Sister Grey" as if it was a matter of course. After listening to Vanya's words, "Sister Grey" couldn't help but pause, and didn't know how to respond for a while. Finally, she slowly spoke.
"Well...thank you very much for your kindness, Sister Vanya..."
Sister Grey responded like this, and after her eyes rolled slightly, she seemed to remember something, and then continued speaking.
"By the way, Sister Vanya, from what you just said, you seem to be somewhat interested in the consecration ceremony, right..."
