Something's wrong with my roommate

Chapter 334 Goddess Salvation Plan
"You two, I'm really sorry."

Joyce sincerely apologized: "Owen is usually a very stubborn person. I didn't expect him to do such a disappointing behavior today. It really exceeded my expectations."

Under Joyce's persuasion, the three finally returned to the office.

Xu Cheng said that he should take a wait-and-see attitude towards the transaction between the two parties, but in fact he was just picking him up.

Hearing Joyce's apology at this moment, Xu Cheng naturally walked down the steps: "Don't worry, we didn't blame you, but you, a bishop, have no prestige at all."

"Because we are superiors and subordinates in name, we are actually closer to a friend relationship, and we don't have too many concerns about each other."

Joyce breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that Xu Cheng and Qiu Gongyue might misunderstand, thinking that Owen's actions were ordered by him.

Although he really wanted to know Xu Cheng's true strength, he would not use this stupid way to test it out.

"Speak the truth."

Xu Cheng is not interested in caring about the internal discipline of the Goddess Cult: "How are you going to help us enter the Senate?"

Hearing Xu Cheng bring up the business, Joyce cheered up.

"If you want to investigate the truth about the demise of the Moon Clan, there are two places you can go. One is the large library of the Senate, and the other is the internal database."

He has a deep understanding of the Senate, so he gave appropriate advice: "The large library records the past history of the dead, and the database has all the mission information over the years. These two places should be able to find what you need. At that time, I will use the power of Goddess Sect to help you disguise as employees and lurk in."

Qiu Gongyue also knows these two places, especially the internal database, she is not qualified to enter when she pretends to be Walker.

Now Goddess Cult can actually send people in, their infiltration of the Senate is really not easy.

Xu Cheng asked again: "Then what do you need us to do for you?"

Joyce remained silent, clenched his hands, and seemed to be engaged in a fierce entanglement in his heart.

Xu Cheng and Qiu Gongyue looked at each other without making any noise.

After a few minutes, Joyce finally made a major decision, and said softly, "You two, do you know the Goddess of Shadow?"

Xu Cheng didn't know much about it, but Qiu Gongyue had already found time to understand it when he sneaked back to Guangming Mountain.

It is said that it is a goddess born in the shadows, who founded the kingdom of shadows and the city of shadows, the latter being Guangming Mountain.

His believers are all over the world. Because they believe in shadows, they are naturally compatible with assassins, and finally formed an organization where religion and assassins are one.

The Shadow Goddess led the dead for a long time, but I don't know when, the Shadow Goddess no longer appeared, and the oracle gradually disappeared.

The elders were originally loyal believers, but when the gods disappeared permanently, human desires would overshadow beliefs.

The elders passed it down from generation to generation, and their belief in the goddess has been shaken. In the end, the belief was held high and the power was in their hands.

"We suspect that the great goddess has not disappeared."

Joyce's face was tense, and he said a shocking sentence: "He was imprisoned by the Senate instead."

Xu Cheng and Qiu Gongyue were taken aback at the same time, and the former showed an expression of "you're kidding me" because he had seen the gods.

After the World Tree caused the Age of Gods to retreat from the environment, Amaterasu's strength was seriously weakened, and he hid in the secret realm and dared not go out.

But even with such a weakened version of Amaterasu, Xu Cheng was toyed with by Him after he entered the secret realm, and he was completely powerless to fight back.

If the Senate can imprison a goddess, how strong is the Senate?
The group of them should just lie down and admit defeat.

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

Qiu Gongyue frowned and said, "If an omnipotent god is imprisoned, is he still a god?"

"I have to correct you, God is not omnipotent."

Joyce retorted: "The omniscient and omnipotent god is a discussion of monotheism. Only monotheism will think that there is only one omnipotent god in the world. The reality is that there are many gods in the world. They may be powerful, but It is definitely not omnipotent, and gods also have weaknesses, as long as they target their weaknesses, even mortals can accomplish the feat of killing gods."

What Joyce said surprised Xu Cheng and Qiu Gongyue.

Think about it carefully, the omniscient and omnipotent God, this impression does come from monotheism.

In the worldview of polytheism, gods have personalities and weaknesses, and are more like a powerful person.

Xu Cheng couldn't help complaining: "You are a believer, and you even talk about killing gods, and call it a miracle. Aren't you afraid that your god will strike you to death with a bolt of lightning?"

Joyce smiled slightly: "The Goddess of Shadow is a tolerant god, and she won't mind my little offense."

You are bullying others, now you are offline.

Qiu Gongyue still frowned, always feeling that the idea that the Shadow Goddess was imprisoned made her very uncomfortable and irritated.

"Since you firmly believe that the gods are imprisoned, there should be evidence, can you show it?"

"Of course there is evidence. This is not my own guess, but the Goddess Sect's investigations over the years."

Joyce put his hands and fingers on the table with a serious expression: "About a hundred years ago, the research institute under the name of the Senate secretly opened a project called 'Rebirth of the Gods', and this project only existed It disappeared in a few days, but instead of being canceled, it was hidden."

The irritability in Qiu Gongyue's heart became stronger and stronger: "It's just a nonsense project, what can this explain?"

"There is only one project, of course it can't explain anything. At that time, the Goddess Cult was still very powerful and had a deep influence on the Senate. I didn't believe such nonsense at all."

Joyce explained unhurriedly: "Do you know that all the secret arts of assassins are bestowed by the goddess, and after the goddess disappeared, no new secret arts were added to the dead. But in about fifty years A few days ago, the Senate suddenly grasped the ability to bless. They refused to disclose the source of the ability on the grounds of technical secrecy. Our Goddess Sect conducted multiple investigations but failed to find out. The sealed research project, the name of the project is 'How to restrain a god', haha!"

Joyce sneered: "In a religious organization, the internal believers are actually studying how to restrain the gods. What else do you think is impossible?"

Qiu Gongyue was speechless. If Joyce hadn't lied, then what the Senate did was too suspicious.

But for some reason, she was full of resistance to the fact that the Shadow Goddess was imprisoned, and she didn't want to believe it was true.

At this moment, Xu Cheng noticed Qiu Gongyue's abnormality, and quietly grabbed her palm.

He displayed the talent of the ability card, and quickly calmed Qiu Gongyue's restless mood and regained his composure.

"The Goddess Sect has organized several attempts to infiltrate in order to learn the truth and save the Goddess, but the results were heavy losses."

Joyce continued: "Some time ago, this plan to save the goddess was brought up again, but because the strength gap between our Goddess Cult and the Senate is too great, the plan was shelved."

Hearing this, Xu Cheng and Qiu Gongyue also understood what Joyce needed their help to do.

"Help you save the goddess? Don't you think this request is too high?"

The Goddess Sect only helped Xu Cheng and Qiu Gongyue to recruit two positions, and in turn dared to ask them to participate in such important matters involving gods.

"Of course not such a rude request."

Joyce quickly explained, lest Xu Cheng and Qiu Gongyue retreat in the face of difficulties: "Actually, we are not 100% sure that the goddess is imprisoned. The main reason is to find out about this matter. When the time comes, our people I will enter the Senate to investigate, and if we are discovered, I only hope that you can help us resist the possible elders and buy us some time."

Such a request is more reasonable.

Xu Cheng and Qiu Gongyue made eye contact for a while, and then agreed.

Anyway, the two only need to enter the Senate to investigate the truth about the Moon Clan's destruction and the whereabouts of Violet. As for whether the goddess is really imprisoned, it has nothing to do with them.

Seeing that the two agreed, Joyce was relieved.

The reason why this plan was shelved is that the Goddess Cult no longer has the powerful force to compete with the Senate, and entering the Senate is just a sacrifice in vain.

But if there is Xu Cheng's force as a guarantee, he can reach that place and rescue the imprisoned goddess.

boom!
The office door was suddenly pushed open, and a panting woman rushed in.

Xu Cheng couldn't help turning his head to look at Joyce: "Who didn't lock the door this time?"

Joyce was quite embarrassed, because he really didn't have the habit of locking the door.

"Tina, you're in such a hurry, what's the matter?"

A woman named Tina is a staff member of the theater and a believer of the Goddess Cult. She said anxiously, "Mr. Joyce, turn on the TV, the news station of the Senate."

Guangming Mountain not only has the Internet, but also has a TV, but they are all local area networks.

The Senate has an exclusive channel to publish some laws or policies.

Joyce realized the seriousness of the problem from Tina's expression, and immediately picked up the remote control to turn on the TV and tuned to the news channel of the Senate, where a live TV broadcast was going on.

On the screen, an old man wearing a golden crown and a silk black robe is standing on the podium, reading a lengthy speech.

On both sides behind the old man, there are also four old men who have reached their sixties, all dressed in golden crowns and black robes.

Without being told by others, Xu Cheng knew that these five old people should be the five elders of the Senate, and the person speaking on the podium was the Prime Minister, an old man at the pinnacle of power.

Soon, many believers from the Goddess Cult came to Joyce's office, crowding the spacious place to the brim.

But no one spoke, they all kept quiet and stared at the TV with solemn expressions.

They are all residents who have lived in Guangming Mountain for generations, and they know how rare it is for five elders to appear together. There must be a major event that affects everyone to be announced.
