Chapter 215 York's Ceremony
The problem originated in a dark secret room.
The environment of the secret room is strange. The surrounding walls and the ground underfoot seem to be made of hard black stone bricks.
But if you look closely, you will find that those stone bricks are not solid, but hazy and translucent, as if they were made of compressed mist.
Compared to the strangeness of this room, the "people" in the room are actually even stranger.
One was a very young-looking boy with short grey hair.
The other one was a humanoid monster with a white snake head.
The one who asked the question was the snake man. His voice was hoarse and his tone was strange. When he spoke, there was obvious doubt in his vertical pupils.
"This doesn't seem necessary?"
It was obvious that the snake had the same confusion as the queen.
But the Queen was able to raise this question because she was very familiar with Andy's situation and some of his behaviors.
The existence of snake people is very unfamiliar to Andy.
"I don't understand it either."
The short-haired young man who was talking to him was also unfamiliar. He shook his head as he spoke, "But I think there must be something wrong here."
"To be honest, I didn't understand many of his actions at the time, but later I was able to prove that those actions had various deep meanings."
"Are you referring to what happened in that school?"
"Of course not. I mean, everything he did."
"Maybe he's just improvising? I mean, no one can control everything, right?"
"It is possible, but the probability is low."
"Why?"
"Look carefully here..."
The two "people" who were talking were sitting face to face, with an ordinary partition table in the middle, and many bright spots of light floating on the table.
As the conversation between the two parties continued, the boy would occasionally raise his hand to touch one of them, and the corresponding light spot would then transform into a series of pictures.
Andy's scenes.
From York to St. Marian College, and then to the Vatican headquarters at this time, the scope includes but is not limited to living, praying, attending mass, gatherings, and communicating with people...
It can be said that every aspect has been carefully observed, and the corresponding monitoring methods are even more terrifying when you think about it.
"Unfortunately, these were collected retrospectively and are missing many key points."
The boy sighed with regret as he fiddled with these spots of light.
"He may seem weak now, but no one can guarantee that he has some hidden tricks. Out of caution, I never approached him."
"If I remember correctly, it has only been a short time since you were resurrected?"
The snake man sitting opposite spit out his tongue and said in a teasing manner: "Besides, there is also your son named Dio who is watching in secret. There is not much you can do, right?"
"Dio's origin is the same as mine. If I really want to do something, it will be difficult for him to discover it."
The boy answered the snake man's latter question, but shrugged his shoulders and did not comment on the former one.
"And if you really believe that I was only recently resurrected, then you are no different from a fool."
"so?"
The snake man heard this and asked again, "Do you have any clues?"
"What clues?"
"Then why did the reincarnated Lucifer become the Son of God?"
"This... well, it's not that there isn't one."
As the young man spoke, he raised his finger slightly and pointed out a picture.
"After the incident with the Arrogant Demon King, the Emperor supported a group of new people in York, and the movements of those new people during this period are very suspicious."
"suspicious?"
"After the Great Purge, York fell into a power vacuum. A girl named Lily successfully took the leadership position with the help of the Empire, but after that, she became obsessed with infrastructure construction."
"Is there anything unusual about this? Maybe it's her personal hobby?"
The snake man was not impressed by what he said. "If young people are dissatisfied with the country they live in, then of course they should do something after they gain power."
"And let me say that this could also be her using the process of building the organization's infrastructure to establish her authority."
Authority is established through concrete actions. Simply having a backer may inspire awe, but it will not cultivate the attitude and habit of obeying his orders.
So just looking at this matter alone, there is really nothing to doubt.
“That’s what I thought at first.”
The boy said: "But now, I don't think so."
"Why?"
"Because the construction of that place has basically been completed." As he spoke, he pointed out a new picture.
The scene in the picture is very strange——
Looking down at the planet from the vast void of space, a certain part of it, against the backdrop of darkness, clearly showed the outline of a five-pointed star.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"York is a small country, but a small country does not mean a small territory. Considering the desert there, the country's overall area is at least in the top ten on this planet."
“And this pentagram ritual took over the entire York!”
ceremony……
The snake man seemed to have an unusual interest in this word, his eyes fixed on everything in the picture, as if he didn't want to miss any details.
Seeing that the bird's-eye view was too blurry, it even urged the boy to take out other pictures.
Of course there are other pictures.
As the God of Dawn, the boy's use of light is terrifying, and his investigation into Andy's past is extremely detailed.
As one light spot after another emerged, the white-skinned snake man gradually immersed himself in the various scenes.
"Resurrection? This seems to be related to resurrection?"
"No, no, this seems to be a soul anchor point?"
"But why a pentagram?"
"What mythological system does this correspond to? The underworld? The earth?"
“How strange…”
The snake man kept spitting out his tongue and muttering to himself, looking more and more puzzled.
"Do you see anything?"
Seeing that it suddenly stopped talking, the boy sitting opposite couldn't help but ask, "Is there anything unusual in here?"
Every profession has its specialties. He is good at many things, but there are even more things he is not good at.
At least in terms of rituals, there is no difference between him and Xiaobai.
The snake man is different. He is an absolute expert in this field. Among all the people and gods that the boy knows, there is basically no one stronger than him.
However, the expert seems to have encountered a problem now.
Not only did he not respond after hearing this, but his eyes were still fixed on the pictures, as if he had lost his mind because of it...
The young man frowned slightly when he saw this, but did not disturb him. Instead, he waited patiently.
This wait lasted for more than an hour.
"I see!"
At a certain moment, a loud shout suddenly interrupted the silent atmosphere in the secret room.
The snake man stood up with a distorted expression, slammed the table, looked at the young man with his golden vertical pupils, and his tone was full of excitement.
"This is the Lord God's anti-truth ritual!"
"The Lord's Ritual?"
The young man was stunned when he heard this, and then his face was filled with surprise and disbelief, as if he had heard something extremely important.
"Are you sure!?"
