Chapter 59 Infiltrate the Temple of Order
Barnabass's words annoyed Kassandra.
"I don't want to see Pitya!"
Kassandra waved her hand unhappily and said, "My family was broken by these damn oracles. If it weren't for their fingers, I should have lived happily with my parents and brother in Sparta!"
“Uh~”
Barnabas, who was too excited, realized that he had stepped on the mine, and Herodotus hurriedly stood up to smooth things over.
"Pitia's words may not be correct. People still have to rely on their own efforts to grasp the future. It's better not to see them."
"Cough~"
Xin Sheng also coughed and changed the topic: "Barnabas, Herodotus, Kassandra and I have important things to do next."
"After the matter in Delphi City is over, I plan to go to Bootia to try to unblock Sphinx."
"Herodotus, if you are interested, you can act with us."
Herodotus had a look of interest on his face, and he nodded readily to agree to Xin Sheng's invitation.
"Of course, please be sure to bring me."
Xin Sheng and Kassandra, whose emotions gradually calmed down, looked at each other.
Kassandra patted Natiya's head and said to the two: "Natya will protect your safety during this period."
"Please try not to go out, Delphi City is not very safe recently."
Barnabas knew that Xin Sheng and Kassandra would not be aimless, and when she was about to agree, Herodotus suddenly spoke in shock.
"Are you worried about the Order God's Church?"
Xin Sheng's brow twitched for a moment, and Kassandra immediately picked up the Leonidas Spear placed beside her.
The hawk trainer who stood up suddenly pointed his weapon at Herodotus, and his cold murderous aura completely surrounded the old scholar.
"How do you know the Order God Cult? Are you too..."
"No, no, no."
Herodotus' expression was a little stiff under the force of Kassandra. He waved his hand and explained: "I just accidentally heard of this Order God Cult during my travels."
"Yesterday I was chatting with the hotel owner and learned that many strangers have entered Delphi City recently, and I happened to know one of them. As far as I know, he is a member of the Order God Cult."
Xin Sheng narrowed his eyes and pressed Kassandra's arm to signal her to put down her weapon.
"Who is the person you are talking about? What is his identity in the Order God Church?"
Herodotus shook his head: "I only know his identity to the outside world, and I don't know his status in the Order God Church."
"That man is called Brisson, the son of two Athenian artists."
"Because he has lived in the shadow of his parents as an excellent artist since he was a child, he has a weak personality and has always wanted to prove his abilities to his parents."
"I saw him wearing a black robe and a mask on the outskirts of Athens, meeting a mysterious man with the same outfit. After some in-depth investigation, I realized that this outfit came from the Order God Cult."
"Brison, Athens..."
‘Member of the Deluxe League of the Divine clan?’
After pondering for a while, Xin Sheng nodded to Kassandra, and the Eagle Trainer then retracted his sharp momentum.
"Perhaps, this Brisson can become a breakthrough for us to eliminate another branch of the Divine Cult."
‘However, if the branch of the Deluxe League was eliminated first, Athens, which had lost the control of the Divine Cult, would gradually gain the upper hand in this war, right?’
Xin Sheng still remembers the identity of a saint in the branch of the Godly Church, and was one of the two most noble kings in Sparta.
But without definite evidence, it is absolutely impossible to easily overturn the high-powered king.
Elpino's manor defense is so strict that you can imagine how powerful the saint will be around. It is impossible to break through frontal areas or sneak in secret.
On the side of the branch of the Deluo League, the identity of the saint is equally noble.
He is the biggest political enemy of Bellicille, and in the future, he will seize the supreme power of Athens after Bellicille's death.
Because these two people appeared in the main plot of Odyssey, they are the two with the highest presence among the seven saints of the Divine Cult, and the two who Xin Sheng still remembers their identities.
"etc."
Barnabas, confused, rubbed his temples and stopped: "What the hell are you talking about? Order God's Cult? What organization is that?"
Barnabas, who couldn't understand the atmosphere, changed the originally solemn topic.
Xin Sheng and Kassandra discussed it and signaled to Natiya, making her explain the whole story to Barnabas, who was confused.
...
As the end of 431 BC approaches, the city of Delphi gradually becomes undercurrent.
Pitya has also stopped "receiving customers" to the outside world recently, and the always lively Apollo Temple seems a bit deserted.
On the last day of December, Xin Sheng and Kassandra came to the suburbs under the cover of Herodotus and Natiya, put on the black robe of the Order God Cult, and handed their respective weapons to the two for custody.
Herodotus looked at the spear of Leonidas that Cassandra gave him.
Since learning about the existence of the Yishu civilization, this is the first time he has had the opportunity to touch the Artifact of Eden with his own hands.
Unfortunately, Herodotus did not have the bloodline of the descendants of Ishu, and the Spear of Leonidas did not show any magical power in his hands.
As for Barnabas.
After learning that Pitya was also a member of the Order God Cult, he was just a puppet who spoke according to the Order God Cult, he was very depressed for a while, and was still autistic and alone in the hotel to sort out his mood.
For a devout believer of gods, this shocking fact made him a little unacceptable and took some time to adjust himself.
Xin Sheng squatted down and touched Dahuang's head, pushing it in front of Natiya.
"Natya, Dahuang is temporarily left to you to take care of."
"Dadalos doesn't have to pay attention to it, it will go out for food on its own."
"No problem, Dahuang, come to my side."
Natiya liked this loyal and powerful hound very much, and she even considered taming a hound as a helper.
This is also a good choice for mercenaries who have always been alone. Many mercenaries have tamed animal partners to help hunt targets.
“Woo~”
Dahuang seemed a little disappointed when he could not follow his master and sat pitifully beside Natiya and looked at Xin Sheng.
Xin Sheng was a little helpless and grabbed Dahuang's dog head and rubbed it intimately.
"Be good, I will be back soon. Natiya and Herodotus will be left to you to protect this time."
"Wang!"
Dahuang, who received the order, finally recovered a little, his ears straightened, and he was always paying attention to the movements nearby.
Pulling up the black robe's hood, Xin Sheng and Kassandra also buttoned up the mask.
"Let's go, let's see what is hidden in this dragon and tiger den."
In order to avoid arousing suspicion, Xin Sheng and Kassandra did not act together.
After coming to the entrance of the Temple of Order located below the Temple of Apollo, Cassandra volunteered to take the lead.
Xin Sheng waited for a few minutes before pushing the door and following.
This temple seemed to be transformed from a natural cave. It was advancing along the corridor. A large number of God-Cultural Guards stood on both sides of the corridor, looking at everyone entering the cave with an scrutiny.
‘The defense is very tight, and you must not cause conflict here, otherwise you will not be able to escape.’
After a minute of downward journey, Xin Sheng came to a hall where a large number of black-robed masked men gathered.
A relatively petite masked man stood at the entrance of the hall and immediately came forward when he saw Xin Sheng coming.
"Brother of the Church of God, please show your certificate."
Judging from the voice, the man in black robe who was unable to know his identity was a woman.
Xin Sheng took out the thin metal sheet obtained from Melansos and put it in the palm of his hand.
Seeing this token, the woman in black robe immediately made way.
"Welcome to the Temple of Order, the assembly will begin soon, you can talk to other brothers and sisters first."
‘Brothers and sisters…heh.’
Xin Sheng sneered in his heart, "It's clear that all branches are intrigueing for their own interests, but you really dare to use this title to communicate with each other."
After entering the hall, Xin Sheng's eyes passed through the chaotic crowd and saw a small platform standing in the center of the hall at a glance.
An energy triangle flashing with golden light is placed in the center of the platform, continuously radiating strange energy fluctuations.
At the same time, the golden thin sheet in Xin Sheng's palm also resonates in the same tune. Obviously, this thin sheet is related to the energy triangle.
‘It appears, Eden Artifact.’
