Don't call me evil god

After being shocked, Wallace quickly realized how outrageous this question was.

No wonder his old friend said this was a top-secret commission.

A ritual related to [Past Glory] turned out to be a radiant divine art?

No matter how you think about it, it's outrageous.

This kind of thing has reached the point where "no one will believe it even if you tell it to others."

Unless there is extremely conclusive evidence, people will only think that Mendel is an old and confused guy, and will regard all his words as crazy talk in the future.

If Wallace was not familiar enough with Mendel and knew what kind of character his friend was, and would not speak without absolute certainty, Wallace asked himself, if someone else told him this news, his first reaction would probably be doubt and disbelief.

"Do the archbishops know about this?"

Wallace confirmed solemnly.

Mendel nodded first, then shook his head:

"I told them, but... they didn't believe it."

"Archbishop Eugene talked to me personally, and he told me not to worry so much and to hurry up to confirm the number of materials needed for the ceremony."

Wallace asked: "Then how did you confirm that it was not a radiant divine art? Are you really sure that you are not wrong?"

Mendel: "I am sure! I am sure! I am 100% sure!"

"When I summarized and figured out the materials needed for the [Divine Healing] divine art, the feeling was very unique and wonderful. I had a hunch that mixing those materials together would establish a connection with the gods! Temporarily using His great power to make miracles come!"

"During this divine art ceremony, I didn't have the feeling of establishing a connection with the gods at all. I even doubted whether this ceremony could really work?"

Wallace was silent.

Although his old friend was not a genuine radiant priest, he was indeed very accomplished in the field of radiant divine art with his contribution to [Divine Healing].

"Why don't you worry about whether it works or not, whether it is a radiant divine spell, and just do what they ask you to do?"

Mendel glanced at his old friend and sighed, "It's not that simple."

"If the person who came to me was not Archbishop Eugene, I would be worried that the other party was a cultist who was going to destroy the [Past Glory] barrier."

"Because I now have a guess that this divine ritual has more than one use!"

"In addition to strengthening the barrier, it may be used in reverse to weaken the effect of the barrier, or even temporarily remove the [Past Glory] barrier in an area."

"This is what worries me the most!"

When Wallace heard the words "use it in reverse", his face had already turned green.

He wanted to cover his ears and leave here immediately.

But he didn't have time to do so.

When he reacted, he had fully understood the meaning of Mendel's words.

"You..." Wallace swallowed a word starting with "F" with great effort, and said with gritted teeth: "Did the Archbishop know about this before?"

Mendel shook his head: "It seems that they didn't know."

"Have you told Archbishop Eugene about this?"

Mendel continued to shake his head: "How is it possible! Do you think I dare to say it?"

Wallace first reluctantly breathed a sigh of relief, then turned his face dark and said angrily:

"You don't dare to tell them, and then you drag me into the water when you meet, right?!"

Wallace realized how big a pit he and Mendel had fallen into.

It is not surprising that the divine ritual has multiple ways of use.

When the divine magic of Davinson, the god of natural history, is used to identify living and dead things, different materials are needed in the same ritual to achieve different effects.

But the effect of this divine ritual may threaten the safety of the entire Reyak Kingdom!

There should not be many people in the Glowing God Cult who know about this ritual, otherwise, Archbishop Eugene would not have personally found Mendel and issued a special commission to him.

But when scholars like Mendel and Wallace who have little self-protection ability become insiders, the situation is different!

The best choice for them is to play dumb.

Just pretend that they didn't find the problem with the ritual, let Mendel complete the Archbishop's commission, leave, and then keep the secret completely in their stomach.

Then this is still a powerful divine ritual used to reinforce the [Past Glory] barrier.

Once the secret discovered by Mendel is leaked.

The cultists must be on them!

Crazy cultists don't care about those things, they always try their best to do anything, and try to sabotage whenever they have the chance.

It's not difficult to kidnap a scholar, what if there is an unexpected surprise?

Not to mention their own safety is not guaranteed.

They dare not ask for help from the Glowing God Church.

No mistakes in one post, one content, one book, one forum, one 6, one 9!

The reason is simple.

For the Glowing God Church.

The safest and most cost-effective way is not to protect Mendel and Wallace closely to ensure their safety, but to kill them!

Dead people will not leak secrets.

In a sense, the risks faced by scholars are no less than those who fight monsters directly.

Because their job is to "explore the unknown", and the unknown itself has uncontrollable risks!

Mendel spread his hands: "So, we are now on the same boat."

"I've been very nice. I was planning to keep this secret to myself. After all, I have a good relationship with the Church of the God of Light. So I wrote a letter to hint you not to come to me, so as to avoid you getting involved."

"Since you're here, don't blame me for dragging you into this!"

"Don't forget, you dragged me into this a lot in the past few years!"

Wallace was choked.

He really couldn't refute this.

These senior scholars basically have some "dangerous knowledge" or gray transactions that they accidentally discovered when exploring the unknown because of the commission of the church.

The best way to deal with these dirty things is to drag someone into this first, and then keep it to yourself together.

This can be regarded as the unspoken rule of the scholar profession.

The reason for dragging someone into this is to guard against assassination.

If the church really intends to kill scholars to ensure that the secrets will not be leaked, having a similar keeper can be used as a deterrent.

You can kill me, but if my friend finds out that I was assassinated, he will make the secret public, and you won't have a good time!

The church doesn't dare to blatantly turn the assassination into a massacre.

With the bargaining chip deterrence, their safety can be guaranteed to a certain extent.

Wallace once did something similar, passing on the secret he discovered to Mendel.

When Mendel realized what his friend was saying, he had already been dragged into the water.

This time the situation is reversed.

Mendel dragged Wallace into the pit.
