Mystery: Chaos Path

Of course, Roland didn't deny the importance of combat power at all. In fact, he knew very well how important it was. To put it simply, considering Earth's situation, without enough combat power, facing the Outer Gods would only lead to death.

What Roland was dissatisfied with was that many people who were clearly not suited for fighting and killing, who clearly had better places to contribute besides the front lines, were still being forced into a fighting and killing mold under the current social situation, with their minds only knowing the thrill of battle, thus wasting the uniqueness of their respective pathways.

"But we can't blame them either. In the end, it's the fault of this world, the threat of the apocalypse, the unreasonable systems, the unsafe environment... Under these circumstances, fighting and killing naturally becomes the top priority."

Roland clicked his tongue inwardly. He wasn't that concerned about social progress, but seeing the Beyonders of the mystical world wasting their talents always made him feel a little itchy, wanting to steer them back onto the "right track."

It's probably a kind of obsessive-compulsive disorder!

"But then again, the Earth and Moon pathways have quite a few problems. I don't know how many people have been affected by the Outer Gods in these two pathways. Tsk, what a waste of time. As expected, the Outer Gods are the biggest obstacle to this world becoming better..."

Roland pinched his chin and pondered for a few seconds, then looked at Klein and said, "Sherlock, let's go to the Harvest Church! Let's confirm Emlyn White's whereabouts as soon as possible, so you can complete your commission earlier."

"Alright." Klein was already used to Jack's decisive style, and nodded.

Just as the two were about to leave, they saw Lucifer walking down from the second floor.

"Are you going out?" Lucifer glanced at them.

This was naturally the result of Roland's manipulation. After all, negotiating with Lilith was more suitable for Lucifer, while Jack could just watch the show from the sidelines.

"Yes!" Roland, disguised as Jack, nodded and smiled, "We're planning to go to the Harvest Church. A Blood Race named Emlyn White has gone missing, and we suspect he was captured by the Harvest Church."

"Mr. Lucifer, are you also going out?" Klein asked casually.

"Yes, I'll go to the Harvest Church with you." Lucifer nodded, his expression showing no surprise.

"Huh?" X2

The two little ones in the living room were both stunned, one acting and the other genuinely surprised.

"Old man, what are you going to the Harvest Church for?" Roland asked with a curious expression.

Klein also looked at Lucifer with curiosity.

Lucifer glanced at them and said with a smile, "I have something to discuss with the Earth Mother."

Hearing this, Klein's expression became even more curious. He couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Lucifer, may I ask what you plan to discuss with the Earth Mother?"

"Yeah, what are you going to talk about? Tell us, old man!" Roland chimed in, always serious about playing his role.

"Just talking about an alliance." Lucifer glanced at the two of them, not saying much, only saying, "As for other things, you will eventually know when you are supposed to know."

"Oh." Klein was a little disappointed, but he didn't ask any further.

"Old man, you're so stingy," Jack muttered.

The three then set off and soon arrived near the Harvest Church by trolley.

Compared to the Saint Samuel Cathedral, the Sea Wave Cathedral, and the Lever Cathedral, which also belong to the three major churches of the Night, Storm, and Steam in Backlund, the Harvest Church is undoubtedly much smaller. The whole structure is golden yellow, and you can see the life emblems composed of elements such as wheat ears, flowers, and springs engraved on the outer walls. At first glance, there are not many believers, and it can be said that the place is deserted.

Roland, disguised as Lucifer, looked up at the emblem symbolizing the Earth Mother and smiled, but he wasn't in a hurry to go in.

After all, Roland was very curious whether the Goddess of the Night had shared information about him with her dear ally. This was very important, as it concerned whether he and Lilith could have a smooth conversation next, and also how Roland should talk to Lilith.

Although Klein didn't quite understand why Mr. Lucifer was standing outside the Harvest Church and not going in, as a person who knew his place, he naturally wouldn't enter the Harvest Church alone under such circumstances, so he simply waited at the door with Lucifer.

"Sherlock, do you think 300 man-eating mushrooms will pop out of the Harvest Church later and take us down?" While waiting, Roland even had the mood to tell Klein some jokes while wearing Jack's persona.

"Shouldn't it be three hundred axemen? What are man-eating mushrooms?" Klein retorted in confusion.

"You don't understand this. As the saying goes, death has its fishy mushrooms. Man-eating mushrooms are a famous specialty of the Earth pathway, a must-try," Roland said plausibly.

"?" Klein obviously didn't understand what Roland was saying, and just shivered, saying, "Is this a cold joke?"

"No, no, no, let me introduce you to our famous Mushroom King, who is committed to hybridizing wheat and cows, the genius and madman, Mr. Frank Lee..." Roland enthusiastically began to introduce Frank's existence to Klein, and when he finished his introduction, he heard a low, gentle voice coming from not far away:

“Frank is indeed a genius, but some of his ideas are too crazy. The church has always been worried that he would do something crazy to bring disaster to this world.”

Klein, who was shocked by Frank's various deeds, suddenly looked up and saw a tall figure. It was a man in a brown cassock, over two meters tall, with a strong and burly build, reminiscent of the legendary giants.

Without a doubt, this was Bishop Utravsky, the bishop of the Harvest Church.

So tall... Klein looked up at the other person, feeling his neck a little sore.

"I think Frank is fine the way he is. Genius is on the left, and madman is on the right. Besides, this world is inherently accompanied by madness. Whether it's you or me, can we really be called normal people?" Roland, disguised as Jack, looked at the other party with a smile.

Hearing this, Bishop Utravsky showed a thoughtful expression, then nodded and said, "I do not deny your point of view, but I believe that the Mother Goddess must have a deep meaning in letting Frank leave the church, and that may be his destiny."

"Okay, it seems you are a believer in fate." Roland shrugged, not surprised by this.

He had long known that this Bishop Utravsky was a fanatical believer of the Earth Mother, and he usually emphasized that everything was the guidance of the Mother Goddess. Perhaps because of this, Bishop Utravsky became the favored one of the Earth Mother.

Bishop Utravsky then looked at Lucifer, and then he bowed and saluted, saying, "Your Highness Lucifer, the Mother Goddess's will has descended upon this church, please come with me."
