◎It said it didn't expect the other party to have such thoughts◎

After reading the last comic update, Gu Qian'an had roughly guessed that Gu Luming's death was related to Fang Jianling. Whether it was the blue crystal energy filled in the palace where Mu Hanyu was, or the requiem held by the Pope himself as mentioned by Hu Qian, it could confirm this point.

But he originally thought that Gu Luming's death was because Fang Jianling wanted to control the royal family, so he had to kill all the uncontrollable people who stood in his way.

But now it seems that the information she had was also one of the causes of death.

"Gu Luming was once recognized as the next Pope. I remember that after the war, Fang Jianling took her to his side and taught her everything step by step," Yuanqiu tried hard to recall the past events, "so Gu Luming is indeed the person who is most likely to know the details of Fang Jianling's supernatural powers."

Before it left this world, Fang Jianling was its main focus of observation, so it was certain that Fang Jianling had sincerely cultivated Gu Luming as the next successor.

But Gu Qianan was a little confused after hearing this, "Fang Jianling was appointed Pope by you after you arrived, am I right in remembering this?"

The ball nodded. The original Pope died in the war, and it was because it valued Fang Jianling's character that it chose him as Pope in the later stage of the war.

"Gu Luming was considered the successor to the Pope when the war was almost over, and was taught carefully by Fang Jianling, right?" Gu Qi'an asked again.

The ball nodded again.

"This is very strange," Gu Qianan looked at the ball, "How can a pope who has just ascended the throne not long ago start training a successor immediately?"

At that time, Fang Jianling had no intention of using parasitic species to parasitize others, otherwise the ball would definitely find out.

In addition, in this world where high-level psychics can live to be over a hundred years old, Fang Jianling was not yet of prime age at the time, and he did not cultivate parasitic species at the time, which means that he could have stayed in the position of Pope for at least a hundred years.

Under such circumstances, Gu Qian'an could understand that he had established a successor early on, but was it too early to bring him along to teach him about Vatican affairs?

Has there ever been a prince who lasted a hundred years in the world since ancient times?

"Unless..." Gu Qian'an looked at the ball, and the other party immediately understood Gu Qian'an's unfinished intention, "Unless Fang Jianling thinks that he will not stay in the position of Pope for long."

However, as a high-level psychic, Fang Jianling would not die at all when the war was over. Also, since he was appointed by God himself and had a high approval rating, there was no possibility of him being overthrown. Why would he have such an idea?

While Gu Qian'an was puzzled, Gu Luming had lost her strength and fell back on the bed. She lowered her head tiredly after the outburst and seemed unwilling to talk anymore.

Gu Qian'an threw the unsolvable problems aside and focused on the problem at hand. There was still one thing he didn't understand about the parasitic species: how did the parasitic species control the behavior of the host?

If the parasitic species develops five senses, it can completely control a certain organ of the host, but apart from that one thing, An Mo has not shown any uncontrollable tendencies.

"If the king is under control, the servants around him will easily notice the abnormality. You don't have to worry." Gu Qian'an hinted tentatively.

Gu Luming immediately understood his unspoken intention and replied directly, "Nothing unusual will happen, because Fang Jianling is not controlling him directly, but giving him hints."

"Once the relevant matters are touched upon, the controlled part of the other party's body will directly bypass his consciousness and simulate the appropriate reaction," Gu Luming looked at Gu Qian'an, "No one will find anything wrong, because that was indeed his own decision, but he himself didn't know it."

"With every step he takes to control you, he can give you one more hint," the woman said with a hint of sarcasm on her face. "I'm afraid those guards won't realize anything is wrong until the person they're guarding has his core replaced."

This explanation allowed Gu Qian'an to vaguely understand the control mechanism of the parasitic species. Taking An Mo as an example, Fang Jianling used the parasitic species to give An Mo a hint similar to "let all resistance forces send troops to the Vatican before the time is ripe."

So when An Mo wrote to Bai Lezhan, the parasite automatically bypassed his consciousness and made a new decision.

"Tell me, if I want Fang Jianling to give An Mo a hint and make him think that An Qi is not a good person, is this method feasible?" After leaving the basement, Gu Qi'an asked Yuanqiu.

The ball seemed to be thinking about something, and replied half a beat later, "The idea is feasible, but Fang Jianling may not do it easily now."

According to the normal schedule, the parasitic species in An Mo's body will grow new organs at noon today and will be able to accept new hints. However, Fang Jianling has already used the position of a god to provoke the relationship between An Qi and An Mo, so there is no need for him to waste a hint on the same place.

"Unless there is something urgent that requires him to make sure An Mo has no ill feelings towards An Qi," Gu Qi'an said.

One man and one ball leaned against the wall of the forbidden area, looking at the golden statue in the center and fell into thought.

'I think I now remember why Fang Jianling thought he wouldn't stay on the papal throne for long.'

After saying this, Gu Qi'an looked directly at the ball and said, "Please speak."

Yuanqiu didn't hesitate, 'During the war, the royal family had no strong men and contributed very little. At the end of the war, some people had already proposed to abolish the royal family and let Fang Jianling, who had perfectly commanded many battles and was deeply loved by the gods, manage this world.'

Although the royal family at that time was completely incompetent in defending the country, they were very good at plotting and scheming. They quickly expressed their willingness to abdicate and let the wise succeed them. However, as the Pope, Fang Jianling should serve God wholeheartedly and let the supernatural person nominate a new candidate.

"Then the internal affairs of the superpowers became completely chaotic because of the disputes among candidates, and the royal family easily disintegrated their alliance," Yuanqiu said, "At that time, Fang Jianling taught Gu Luming probably because he wanted to give up the position of Pope and inherit the position of the royal family himself."

To be honest, Yuanqiu didn't take this matter to heart at all. After all, the royal family was where the protagonist An Mo was born, and it was impossible for it to be abolished before the end of the story.

In the future it saw, Fang Jianling was still the Pope, so it never occurred to it that Fang Jianling would have such thoughts.

Gu Qi'an nodded upon hearing this, "That is to say, Fang Jianling has already become obsessed with obtaining the supreme position that controls everything."

It’s good to recite it.

Both Bai Lezhan and Ye Yuming used their own personal experiences to tell Gu Qian'an that when people encounter things related to obsession, they will always lose their rationality and do something uncontrollable.

…

The imperial palace.

Gu Qian'an followed behind Hu Qian and watched him walk to Mu Hanyu's palace.

In fact, when leaving the forbidden area, Gu Qian wanted to check on An Mo's condition, but by coincidence he saw Hu Qian sneaking towards the palace.

This abnormal behavior instantly caught Gu Qian'an's attention. If he was not doing something shameful, why would the chief guard in charge of the security of the palace move forward stealthily?

Not to mention that Hu Qian’s stance was problematic in the first place.

The reason why An Mo discovered the underground laboratory was ultimately because of the early change of post of the patrol knights that day. After Bai Lezhan, Fang Jianling abolished the position of knight chief, so the patrol knights were actually under the management of Hu Qian.

In other words, Anmer's discovery was guided by Hu Qian.

But if he was Fang Jianling's man, it would be quite doubtful for him to tell An Mogu where Lu Ming might be.

As he was thinking, Hu Qian had already stopped in front of Mu Hanyu's palace.

In Gu Qian'an's sight, there were a few strands of blue energy flowing out through the crack in the door. That was the blue crystal on Mu Hanyu's crown.

Seeing this, Hu Qian raised his hand without hesitation, and the gray supernatural power tightly wrapped up the overflowing energy. The next second, a clean space was replaced.

"Ball," Gu Qinan called his partner who was beside An Mo remotely, "I found the psychic who changed positions."

In the comic world, everyone's superpowers are unique, which means that Hu Qian is the superpower in the underground laboratory who replaced the experimental data and didn't want An Mo to see it.

But why is he still alive?

The blue crystal of Mu Hanyu was provided by Fang Jianling in order to kill him. The fact that Hu Qian was sent to handle this matter proves that he is definitely a close subordinate of Fang Jianling.

But what advantages does he have that made Fang Jianling keep him alone after dealing with all the people related to the laboratory?

However, he couldn't think of anything just standing here. Gu Qian recalled Fang Jianling's lengthy introduction of the personnel and used his supernatural powers to go directly to Hu Qian's residence.

But during the move, Gu Qian suddenly discovered something unusual - there seemed to be something else under Hu Qian's house.

Gu Qian'an's teleportation is to use his supernatural power to blend himself into the shadow. Gu Qian can feel where the shadow moves underground, so when he came to Hu Qian's residence, he discovered that there was another world under the residence.

However, this does not mean that there is a separate space such as a secret room underground. Considering the other party's supernatural powers, Hu Qian should have replaced something and hidden it underground.

Although the space only for hiding items cannot be entered by real people, it is enough for the shadow without a physical body to move freely. In less than a minute, the shadow took out the items hidden underground by Hu Qian.

To Gu Qian'an's surprise, the thing hidden by the captain of the guard was not some valuable item, but a glass bottle containing paper.

At his signal, Shadow easily peeled off the paper and handed it to him.

Ritz-Carlton

The paper was like a miniature map that included all the buildings of the Royal Palace and the Vatican. There were hundreds of ink dots on it that were either moving or stationary, with each person's name marked on them.

The most surprising thing was that on a light-colored ink dot stationed in the forbidden area of ​​the Vatican, Gu Luming's name was actually written!

Gu Qian'an quickly scanned the entire map. Those who were still moving were undoubtedly living people. Gu Qian'an also matched the few people who were standing still with the patrol team in his mind.

That is to say, everyone here except Gu Luming is still alive, so why does her name appear on the map even though she is already dead?

"Because of Gu Luming's ability," the voice of the ball answered his doubts in time, "Her soul has not dissipated, so you can still think that she is still alive."
