Eddie wanted to retaliate, even if it meant turning against the Assyrian Kingdom, but he couldn't make his things public, otherwise even the Papacy headquarters couldn't help him.
Unfortunately, his forces were too weak and were no match for Hughes and his fully armed police.
Not everyone in the Holy See is an extraordinary being.
The extraordinary individuals of the Holy See are mainly concentrated in a few key departments.
The three major knightly orders were the main ones.
The Holy Knights are the most elite of the knightly orders, serving as guardians of the God of Light.
The Knights of Judgment are the largest in number, responsible for judging heretics and fighting for their Lord.
The Knights of Judgment have the smallest number of members, but they are all powerful superhumans secretly trained by the Holy See to carry out secret missions.
In addition to these three major knightly orders, the Papacy headquarters also includes the Temple of the Priests and the Night Watch.
The Temple of the Priests is filled with priests who are proficient in the divine arts of light, possess the most powerful supernatural abilities, and are among the people closest to the God of Light.
Even among the cardinals in the history of the Holy See, 80% came from the Temple of the Priests.
The Night Watch is a special case; they spend very little time within the Church of Light because they frequently need to deal with supernatural events, resulting in a high mortality rate.
The original Night Watchmen were all elites of the Holy Light Church, but now most of the Night Watchmen are those who were eliminated by the three major knightly orders, and some are even extraordinary individuals from outside the Holy Light Church who were suppressed and then submitted to the Holy Light Church.
Therefore, from the very beginning, the Holy See of Light has implemented a policy of strengthening the core and weakening the branches, with its most elite forces concentrated within the Holy See of Light headquarters.
Even the Western Papacy, which is not far from the headquarters, does not have any decent supernatural power.
Seeing that Grace and her men were about to find everything he had hidden, Eddie yelled, "Jace! Do it!"
As Eddie finished speaking, a crimson shadow suddenly rushed towards Grace.
The blood-red shadow was incredibly fast; Grace didn't even have time to react before she felt a sharp gust of wind sting her face.
The next moment, Yang Cheng suddenly appeared beside Grace and kicked out, sending the blood shadow flying and crashing into the wall.
The one who made the move was a young man with long black hair and a crazed, ferocious expression.
He was dressed in white, but his clothes were stained red with blood. His hands were incredibly terrifying, like the claws of some kind of lizard, completely blood red, with sharp and large teeth.
Grace's expression changed instantly: "'Bloody Hand' Jess! I thought he went to the dungeon, but I never expected you to have been hiding him in the church all this time!"
This 'Bloody Hand' Jess was an extremely vicious superhuman from the West District a few years ago, and he was wanted throughout the Assyrian Kingdom.
He accidentally ate the egg of a mutated lizard, which caused him to mutate as well, making him half a lizardman.
Its hands and feet have turned into lizards, and its body is covered with scales, making it impervious to blades and spears, and even the Demon Hunter Revolver cannot penetrate it.
There are quite a few people who become superhumans by accident. Most of them integrate into the world of superhumans and use their abilities to gain many unexpected benefits.
But Jess was different. He was originally a twisted and deranged killer, and after becoming a superhuman, he became even more insane.
Every day, he would randomly kill someone, cut open their chest, and eat their heart.
And because of his superhuman status, he moved extremely fast, killing hundreds of people in a year, and the police were unable to catch him.
It wasn't until he killed a noblewoman that he became a wanted man nationwide, and many extraordinary individuals also wanted to capture him for the bounty.
In the years that followed, everyone assumed that 'Bloody Hand' Jess was dead or had escaped into the dungeon. Who would have thought that he would be protected by Eddie and become his henchman?
Jess grinned menacingly at Yang Cheng, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth, with bits of flesh stuck between them—it was unclear whether they were human flesh or not.
But before Najes could make a move, Yang Cheng reached out and gently shook his hand.
The next moment, the five smaller demon gods under Jess's head gently twisted.
In an instant, Jess's head twisted, and amidst the splattering of blood, Yang Cheng had already grabbed his head in his hand!
Eddie originally wanted to use the Light God Magic to withstand the attack, but when he saw Yang Cheng kill Jess, the strongest henchman he had trained, in one move, Eddie immediately broke down and let Jess pin him to the ground.
The entire West Side church was then turned upside down, and Grace found several secret rooms, rescuing hundreds of little girls. The scenes inside were simply appalling.
Those girls who had been brainwashed were better off, but those who hadn't been brainwashed had to endure inhumane torture until they gave in.
After freeing the girls, Grace immediately began a public trial at the church entrance, forcing Eddie and his henchmen to confess to the heinous crimes they had committed, which attracted an ever-growing crowd.
Some of them were even the girls' parents and relatives, and they immediately hugged the girls and cried.
Some people, seeing the girls' injuries, attacked Eddie and the others relentlessly.
Grace tried to stop him, but Yang Cheng stopped her.
Yang Cheng said calmly, "I know you want to try them through procedure, but the problem is that often the results of a just procedure are not so good."
If you take him back, the Holy See will definitely come to demand him, and then there will be another conflict. The trial will end before it even begins.
Now, let these people vent their anger; they could even kill that guy without a second thought.
