Inside the Holy See of Light, the lights were bright and dazzling.
But no amount of light could illuminate the shadows in Pollitt's heart.
Looking at the gates of Milton's palace, Pollitt let out a long breath, then gritted his teeth and stepped inside.
With this step he took, he can be said to be completely irreconcilable with the Holy See from now on.
Milton was already asleep, but he looked rather displeased when he was woken up.
In fact, Milton and other extraordinary individuals could use meditation to replace sleep, but they had long been tired of asceticism and would still sleep when it was time to sleep.
"You better give me a reason to wake me up!"
Pollitt hurriedly said, "Sir, Grace and Yang Cheng acted too quickly. They have already obtained leverage over Bishop Ronson of the East District, and have now sealed off the church and arrested Ronson."
And they somehow learned that Ronson had buried some private items on Mount Durus outside St. Brand, and were now preparing to head up the mountain.
"Damn it! Didn't I tell them to take care of all their shady stuff? What on earth did that bastard Ronson bury on Mount Durus?"
Pollitt shook his head and said, "I don't know. I only had a brief conversation with Ronson using secret techniques before Grace and the others broke into the church. He said that the things must not be discovered by the kingdom."
Milton rubbed his head; he knew these bastards were unreliable!
Although he didn't know what that thing was, Milton knew exactly what kind of people they were, and what they buried was a serious blow to the prestige of the Holy See.
"You stay here and keep watch, I'm going to Mount Duluth."
Milton's immediate thought was to go up the mountain to destroy those shady things and completely erase the evidence.
He had only taken two steps when he returned to his own palace to retrieve something before hurriedly leaving.
Watching Milton's departing figure, Pollitt left the Papacy expressionlessly and returned to the Night's Watch headquarters to call Yang Cheng.
Milton has left the Vatican and is preparing to go up the mountain.
On the other end of the phone, Yang Cheng said, "Don't worry, he's not coming back."
Duluth Hill is a small, barren hill outside St. Brande, so few people come here. It is indeed a suitable place to bury something.
When Milton arrived at Mount Duluth, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have forgotten to ask Pollitt where the things on Mount Duluth were buried.
"This good-for-nothing! He can't even do this simple thing right!"
Milton cursed angrily, only blaming Pollitt for not reminding him, without considering that he himself had forgotten to ask.
"What is Your Excellency the Cardinal looking for?"
Yang Cheng suddenly jumped down from a tree and looked at Milton with amusement.
"How did you get here so fast!?"
Milton thought to himself, "Oh no, could it be that Yang Cheng has already found the item?"
However, Yang Cheng was the only one here, and judging from his appearance, he didn't seem to be digging for anything; it was more like he was waiting here specifically for him!
Milton suddenly realized something: "That good-for-nothing Pollitt actually betrayed my Church of Light!"
Yang Cheng said indifferently, "If you don't treat him like a human being, of course he will fight for a chance to be treated like one."
"Damn it! You heretics all deserve to die!"
I said before that this heretic shouldn't be given such a high status.
The position of leader of the Night's Watch should also be held by the Papacy!
Milton stared at Yang Cheng: "So you've come to kill me? Is the Kingdom preparing for a full-scale war with the Papacy?"
Do you know what you're doing? Are you trying to cause chaos throughout the entire continent?
"Don't take yourselves too seriously. Even without your Holy See, everyone can still live."
However, you are right about one thing: I did come to kill you.
The instant Yang Cheng finished speaking, he began forming hand seals behind his back.
The Five Gods Moving Mountains technique was unleashed, and five immortal, demon, and god families suddenly appeared beside Milton, intending to snap his neck and kill him instantly.
But at that moment, an incomparably dazzling holy light appeared in front of Milton.
Around his neck was an old wooden cross pendant, the dazzling divine light emanating from it directly blasting the five immortals, demons, and gods away.
Yang Cheng raised an eyebrow slightly. So this is the sacred relic of the Holy See of Light?
Its defensive capabilities are actually quite good; even the Five Gods Moving Mountains couldn't do anything to it.
Milton was about to say something with a cold laugh, but the next moment, Yang Cheng's body was surrounded by flowing light, and his bloodthirsty aura soared into the sky. He had already smashed the Soul-Severing Spear down towards Milton.
The powerful impact slammed Milton several meters into the ground, leaving him dizzy and disoriented. He relied entirely on the defensive power of the cross to withstand the shock.
But that wasn't all. Yang Cheng thrust out the Soul-Severing Spear repeatedly, and the boundless blood energy fell like meteors, frantically bombarding Milton.
Milton was like a ping-pong ball, being smacked and sent flying all over the place by Yang Cheng.
Although Milton is protected by the cross and has not been injured yet, he knows the limits of the cross and cannot continue fighting like this!
Milton chanted an incantation, and divine light condensed before him, transforming into sharp golden feathers that slashed at Yang Cheng one after another.
However, the golden feathers were completely shattered by the flowing light surrounding Yang Cheng the moment they touched him, and could not harm him at all.
"Weak, too weak!"
No wonder Pollitt said you're all just sitting idly by.
