Chapter 658 Angels Gather in Trier
Angel was a little surprised to hear the answer from the messenger who was holding two heads in one hand.
She still remembered how long it took the major churches to dispel the poisonous fog during the Backlund smog, and how long it took the angels of the Goddess Church to arrive at the scene, deal with Panatia, and save her from almost death.
"Why did the Orthodox Church in Trier react so quickly?"
Looking at Reinette's eight emotionless red eyes, Angel asked back with gritted teeth.
“Because…” “Here…” “There are angels…” “stationed…”
Renette meant that, unlike Trier and Backlund, the angels of the Orthodox Church could be stationed there for a long time without having to abide by the tacit agreement between the churches?
In other words, the Church of the Eternal Sun and the Church of Steam simply don't have a tacit understanding that "Level 0 Seals and Earthly Angels don't appear in Trier." In order to ensure the safety of the church or to confront each other, they have deployed important military forces in this city?
That's why the messenger said that within five minutes at most, the intense battles between demigods and above would attract the intervention of this power...
This city feels much more dangerous than Backlund. The emperor from two hundred years ago was a time traveler, there's inexplicable pollution underground, college students go to the cemetery and disappear every year, the two major churches have sent angels, high-ranking witches are throwing a same-sex party, and even the "Man in the Mirror" has infiltrated the presidential palace...
In comparison, her smuggling of some arms and putting the blame on Intis was nothing.
Angel couldn't help but light a candle for the talented Trier, and then told Renette that he would seek her help through a quick summon at the critical moment, even if it was only for five minutes.
At most, I can confront those angels and tell them that I am already Ms. Arianna's man. They will definitely give face to the Goddess Church... Angel muttered and sent the messenger back to the spirit world.

Angel continued to wander aimlessly in Trier throughout the following Sunday, and even went to Purgatory Square in the Observatory area. He lingered for a while at the entrance of the underground cemetery with the words "Empire of Death" written on it, but ultimately did not enter this strange cemetery.
Fortunately, she did not sense the tracking of the "hunter" from the Soran family, and the secret holy symbol was not affected by the divination, which meant that her whereabouts were not exposed for the time being, and she did not have to face the fate of "fighting for five minutes and then being caught."
When night fell again, she returned to the Honest Man Square area, came to the sparsely populated Honey Badger Street, and knocked on the door of No. 46.
The three days agreed upon by the informant Danio have arrived. She has come to collect the information of those suspicious persons who have been highlighted, preparing to look for Severia's whereabouts. She also wants to hand over the portrait of the "man in the mirror" to the other party so that he can continue to investigate as a police officer.
Danio Brown, with a tired look on his face, carefully released the mechanism behind the door, opened the door and welcomed her in. When they met for the second time, neither of them exchanged pleasantries, but quickly got down to business.
"The list you requested contains 25 people. Their photos, identification documents, and traceable whereabouts are all in the file bag. There are three people whose photos we don't have, but we do have detailed information. If you absolutely must get their photos, I'm afraid you'll have to hire a private investigator."
Angel nodded, opened the seal and roughly flipped through the photos, quickly finding Sylvia, who had black hair and gray eyes, and whose beauty was extremely prominent in the information.
She really "kept her promise" and didn't become a baroness. After all, apart from the self-proclaimed barons like Nicola, the only barons left in Intis were those buried in the cemetery... Angel chuckled to himself when he saw that the husband column in the relationship list was filled with a Soren.
Of course, whether to find her or not depends on Arrodes's advice.
"You completed your mission well," Angel praised Danio, put away the briefcase, and handed him the portrait he had prepared long ago. "This is another target. I hope you can get his information as soon as possible. My only clue is that he has been in and out of the Fraternity Palace on the Boulevard. He might be..."
"The Secretary of the Foreign Affairs Committee!"
Before she could finish, Danio exclaimed.
"Do you know him?"
Angel frowned slightly.
"I met him at a meeting accompanying the Police Commissioner, just two months ago," Danio quickly recovered, pinching the portrait with his fingers. "The Diplomatic Committee is responsible for Intis's external affairs, including the dispatch of ambassadors and diplomatic activities. Everything from providing assistance to international students to declaring war on behalf of the government is part of the committee's responsibilities... and secretaries like them are responsible for all the committee's paperwork and arrangements."
"So, this secretary is very important?"
Angel asked back in confusion.
"Of course, they are only five or six levels above me. Above them are the executive members of the major committees, members of parliament, ministers, and the president."
No wonder he became the target of the "Man in the Mirror". I wonder if he is the only one or just the tip of the iceberg. Will even the ministers and the president become "Man in the Mirror"? Angel pondered and said casually:
"Then give me his information as soon as possible. The more detailed the better."
"You don't want to assassinate him...Okay, I won't ask about that. I understand the rules."
Danio muttered something, then fell silent under Angel's cold gaze. He lit the portrait, which was no longer needed, on the kitchen stove next to the living room, threw the remaining paper into the sink, flushed it down the drain, and then turned back to look at Angel.
"I'll try to gather all the information he can within two days, but next time, don't come find me here. Let's meet at... that cafe down the street, maybe 6pm the day after tomorrow. I feel like your constant searching and borrowing of materials is almost attracting the attention of the police."
Angel had no objection to his caution. After the two agreed on a secret code, she turned and left 46 Honey Badger Street to prevent the single policeman from frequently contacting young women and attracting the attention of neighbors, which would eventually expose his identity as an informant because of these minor problems.
…
Only after the "Night Watchman" disappeared into the night did Danio Brown retract his gaze from the window. He reset the mechanism behind the main door, drew the curtains, turned off the gas lamp, returned to the bedroom on the second floor, and sat down at the desk.
At this moment, he was not at all as tired as when he faced the woman of the Night Watchman. Instead, his eyes were flashing and his face was serious. He quickly wrote two sentences on a piece of paper, walked to the only half-length mirror in the bedroom, and stared at his figure in the mirror in the dim light. His backlit face was dark and uncertain.
Finally, he made up his mind and stretched out his fingers to a glass cufflink on his shirt cuff, which was more decorative than practical, and squeezed it with enough force to break it.
The half-length mirror in front of him immediately began to show ripples, and the bedroom scene and Danio's figure reflected inside quickly disappeared, becoming pitch black, as if leading to an unknown world.
call--
Exhaling softly, Danio picked up the piece of paper with two lines of words written on it and brought it close to the mirror. As the piece of paper got closer, ripples appeared on the dark surface of the mirror again.
Then, a slender hand stretched out from the mirror and held Danio's arm.
