Aaron was silent.

After a moment he hesitated and said, "Can I refuse?"

The Sack Knight was a little too straightforward.

He pinched his brows and said, "I was joking when I said I was going to deal with the dark side of the God of Love. Do you believe me?"

"I don't believe it."

"You can believe it."

"I don't believe it."

Knight Sack smiled and said, "Besides, whether you believe it or not, it doesn't prevent them from making some small moves. Your Church of the Remaining Sun is in the imperial capital. Do you still think you can hide from it?"

"It's because I can't hide, so I don't want to believe it."

A hint of helplessness flashed across his eyes.

If the dark side of the God of Love extends his influence to the entire capital of the Rockxi Empire, then he will inevitably be involved whether he likes it or not.

There was no way he would allow his brothers in the Church of the Setting Sun to face such a threat.

"Then let's fight!"

He whispered softly.

The Eternal Sun has not appeared in the world for a long time, but the Church of the Setting Sun and he have never forgotten the principles that the Eternal Sun adheres to.

Maintain order, fight evil, and bring sunshine to the earth.

This is the lifelong pursuit of the Eternal Sun, and also the lifelong wish of all his believers.

He slowly closed his eyes and whispered:

"I will do my best, but the offensive and defensive battles in the information field cannot be fought simply by possessing the powerful strength of a demigod. You must be prepared."

"Well, even if His Highness is troubled, I will go to him with the most sincere heart and ask for his help."

He was talking about Louis, of course.

That prince has already ascended to the divine realm, and is no longer someone that an ordinary demigod can mess with.

Take Louis' world called the military world, for example. It has world-class information attack and defense capabilities.

That is a world that has been upgraded step by step based on the Cangqing Mechanical Corps!

Coupled with the high-dimensional influence ability possessed by the creatures in the divine realm...

Apart from anything else, the martial arts network alone can help them.

Even if Louis did not directly explain the secrets and calculations behind the Martial Arts Network, it would not prevent the discerning and powerful people from inferring some characteristics of the Military World Martial Arts Network based on the situation of the Mage Network.

Thinking of this, their expressions became more serious.

The Sack Knight was thinking about what price he would have to pay in order to make the other side fight.

If the Church of Love wants to further spread its faith within the Rockhi Empire, it cannot allow any scandal to break out at this critical juncture.

But the dark side of the God of Love is the dark history that the entire Church of the God of Love cannot avoid.

Their existence successfully made the believers of the Church of the God of Love unable to even raise their heads when this matter was mentioned.

But they have no way to solve this problem well.

Those people on the dark side of Eros are too cautious.

In other words, when facing the investigation of the Church of the God of Love, he really hid himself well.

He could only be sure that he was not a member of the dark side of the God of Love, but it was hard to say whether others were.

After the incident in Tunisia where the descendants of the devout believers of the God of Love had their souls contaminated by the dark side of the God of Love, although the scope of impact was small, the subsequent turmoil it caused within the Church of the God of Love was far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

This gave some people an opportunity to try to spread panic, saying that a split has occurred within the Church of the God of Love and that the God of Love can no longer rely on the believers' devout faith to protect the believers' spirits from collapse.

Even in the Star Continent where people believe in gods, there are "targets" for gods.

Although it is impossible to be like the mysterious Eastern country where people only trust those who are useful.

But once entering the circle of believers, all they need to do is contribute their faith, while the gods have to consider many things.

How to make believers "believe first"? The simplest way is that in this world where evil gods are rampant, your gods can shield the threats of evil gods from outside through strong faith protection.

But now even the families of your loyal believers have been polluted from the depths of their souls...

The first thing to question is not the inaction of the upper echelons, but whether the gods they believe in still have the ability to effectively protect believers.

Once God's credibility among believers is damaged, it will cost several times or even dozens of times more to restore it.

Not to mention ordinary believers, even demigod knights like Sack now have some doubts in their hearts.

What on earth was their great God thinking? Did he really have no intention of correcting his mistakes? But in any case, at least now he had done his best to deal with this crisis.

…

Location: Louis' residence in the capital of the Rockhe Empire.

Louis, who was quietly thinking about all the recent situations in the corner, lowered his eyes slightly.

Olivia appeared behind him and whispered, "Something is wrong. It's not in this city, but in a higher-dimensional space. Is there something beyond my cognition that is constantly devouring information?"

She had no way of clearly feeling where that power was.

But she is a mage, one of the best.

Even if we cannot trace its source, we can still more or less sense its existence.

Louis was thoughtful for a moment.

For him who was already able to release divine power, it was not an easy task for the other party to hide the fluctuations of his own power.

Any ordinary strong man should be unable to hide from him.

But the other party did hide himself, which can only mean one thing.

A powerful force beyond the demigod realm appeared on the battlefield.

Thinking about the familiar information field operation, Louis has basically confirmed that it is the dark side of the god of love that he had fought before.

"These believers who love God and face deserve to die."

Olivia said with a bad expression: "Are they really not afraid of arousing our anger and then being surrounded and attacked?"

"This only shows that they have been pushed to the limit, have no way out, and are even desperate."

"Can……"

"You mean how can they hide themselves so well, right?"

Olivia nodded.

It is unbelievable that such a small remnant force could escape the pursuit of various forces.

Louis sighed and said, "Shouldn't you have guessed it?"

“…”

"Someone must have helped them secretly. Otherwise, there is no way to explain how they were able to escape from our encirclement."

Olivia sighed and said, "This is the answer I least want to hear."

“But it’s also the most likely answer.”

"Are there any suspects?"

"First of all, they can act directly in the capital of the Roxy Empire, so there is no doubt that someone in the Roxy upper echelons is assisting them."

"Yeah, I guessed it."

"Then there is the matter of breaking out of the encirclement. The suppression of the dark side of the God of Love is mainly carried out by the Church of the God of Love."

"Yes, you said before that it was enough to leave it to them."

"Do you think they are ready to encircle and suppress them?"

"I don't think so."

"So, as a force that should be doing a good job of encircling and suppressing the dark believers, the Church of Love has made such a mistake. This shows that there may be two situations within the Church of Love."

"The first one is that there is a spy inside, and it's a spy in a very high position, right?"

"Yeah, but I don't want the second one."

"What's the second one?"

"The entire top leaders of the Church of the God of Love are helping the dark side of the God of Love, helping Him to gain power from the God of Love."

After all, the more serious thing is that everyone has problems than that some people have problems.

After the Church of Love's ability to correct itself was exposed, even Louis lost trust in them.

"I plan to forcibly deploy a martial arts network in this city."

After thinking for a moment, he said this to Olivia.

There was no way he would let the enemy prepare.

Before that, he wanted to project the root power of the military world with information attack and defense capabilities, called the Martial Arts Network, over the city.

When it comes to conflicts at the information level, the simplest method is to directly utilize the information on the martial arts network and confront the opponent head-on.

The ability to continuously transmit information and eventually form a martial arts position within the warrior's body is itself the highest level of use of information.

Every contractor can be a message bomb planted by him.

However, it is not an easy task to spread this "landmine" to the entire imperial capital.

He needs to first evenly deploy the Nine Sword professionals or other melee professionals who can be directly connected to the martial arts network to every corner of the city.

They are the transit stations of the martial arts network, playing the role of spreading information coverage.

However, this is not an easy task.

When the Soldier Realm was still the Soldier's Tomb, there was no way to expand the coverage of the Martial Arts Network due to the limited number of contracts that the demiplane could accommodate.

In order to fully utilize the value of the martial arts quota, Enser even directly used it as a souvenir for foreign exchanges and gave it directly when cooperating with allies.

In other words, except for the Cursed Legion that can directly connect to the Military Realm, all other contractors are basically within Enther.

The only people under his command who could help him spread the martial arts network were the Cursed Legion.

Just when he was worried about this, an old friend came to him.

"Long time no see, Louis."

Louis stared blankly at Aaron, who still looked ragged, and said speechlessly:

"You're not really short of money, is it necessary for you to maintain such an unimpressive attitude?"

“It’s just a personal interest.”

"So you suddenly came to see me, is there something wrong?"

Aaron nodded and said, "Have you noticed anything unusual happening in the imperial capital?"

"What do you mean?"

"That filthy presence in the sky."

"If you are referring to the dark side of the God of Love, I can indeed feel the fluctuation of His power, but I cannot be sure where He is."

"I can give you a few reference locations."

"you say."

"First, the Church of Love is in the bridgehead church of the Rockhi Empire."

“…”

"The second one is the office residence of the Honorary Emperor of the Locke Empire."

“…”

"The third one is inside the Griffin family's residence."

"Okay, stop talking. I want to pretend I didn't hear it."

His face was full of pain.

Olivia's face also darkened.

She was wondering who had such a great ability to cooperate with the other party? They also guessed that the mastermind behind the scenes was likely to be in a high position.

But no one told them that the three places with the greatest suspicion at this stage were all directly related to the highest levels of the two forces.

“Is the source of the information reliable?”

“It’s quite reliable.”

"Then don't blame me for using some tricks." Louis looked at Aaron and said, "Brother Aaron, how much defense force does your Canyang Church have now?"

Aaron gave the answer without hesitation, "The number of Exemplary-level experts who can participate in the defense battle is indeed small. Even if the number of Extraordinary-level professionals is counted together, there are only 210 of them."

"It doesn't matter, just gather them together first."

"Why?"

"Give them the power to defend their hometown and resist the dark side of the God of Love. Simply relying on me is only a temporary solution. You must have your own power, and I can give you this possibility."

The Roxy Empire is now severely divided among factions, and he no longer knows which other party is worthy of trust.

In this case, it would be more reliable to introduce a third-party force that has nothing to do with them.

At least...it's easier for them to gain their own trust.

Aaron gave Louis a long look.

He still remembered that when he met Louis many years ago, he was still an honorary prince who liked to hide in a restaurant and enjoy the quiet.

But now, he has become the one who is willing to take the initiative to take responsibility and make decisions.

Time flies so fast!

"Don't worry, Louis. When the dark side of the god of love really comes, I will do everything I can to prevent him from getting close to you."

Louis laughed and said, "Then I will be disrespectful and accept your protection, Brother Aaron."

Aaron smiled and said, "Actually, you have a lot of things you want to ask me."

"Yes, for example, why did you specifically come to me and say that the stars needed a big sin on its side?"

"You can understand it as hysteria, or you can think of it as a prophecy."

"Um?"

"I had a dream, and it was told to me by the God I admired in the dream."

Louis fell silent.

If anyone else came up to him and said this, he would probably slap them in the face.

The Riddler was so powerful before, but now he tells me that all your weird talk came from a dream.

Or even... a dream from a god who had fallen thousands of years ago?

He suspected Aaron had fallen victim to MB scam.

But then again, the person who said this was the Sun Knight.

For a strong man of the level of the Blazing Sun Knight, dreaming, especially a dream about gods, is almost impossible.

It’s not that the gods are unwilling to die, but the strong life fluctuations of the demigods make their brains remain awake even if they appear to be sleeping.

The so-called sleeping is more like taking a nap.

In this case, how could a person with active brain cells dream? But Aaron looked very serious.

That means...he really dreamed about it.

Louis paused for a moment, a lot of speculations running through his mind.

Is it possible that the outside world's perception of the Eternal Blazing Sun's fall is wrong? Is it true that Brother Aaron often said that the Eternal Blazing Sun never fell?

Damn it.

The creatures in the divine realm are like manipulators, maintaining a superior attitude and looking down on the human world.

It is easy to judge others.

Unfortunately, the others can only dance along with the moves of the chess players.

A fictional god who is likely to soon cut off part of the faith in the God of Love.

An old god who should have disappeared into history, but is very likely to reappear?

Tal Griffin, who possesses the five divine tools of the Guardian Stone and can raise his own power to a level beyond the ordinary demigod state, is the platinum giant of the empire? There may even be a lot of messy forces such as the Abyss Church and the Demon King's Army, crawling and squirming in the shadow of the Rockhi Empire.

For a moment, he even thought that he was facing the Enser Empire that was being schemed against by a group of forces a few years ago.
