, he should have just killed himself several times.

Different from the past, the high priest was not reading a book this time, nor was he holding a cigar in his hand. He lay back on the chair with his eyes closed.

Karen didn't interrupt, just stood by.

The high priest stretched out a finger and pointed at the coffee table.

"Thank you, great priest."

Karen did not refuse or be polite, and walked to the coffee table obediently, drinking tea and eating snacks, which tasted very good.

While Karen was dining, the high priest still leaned there with his eyes closed.

In his mind, he was recalling the previous scene.

Tiranus, revived again.

Different from the past times when he tried to subvert and control himself, this time, he seemed to just want to say a few words to himself.

Like a winner, declare victory in advance.

"Norton, you have seen that the world you want is too ideal and seriously deviates from reality. You think you are great, but you are just making the same mistakes as my Lord before. The difference is that you

You are not as powerful as my lord, so all your actions seem so childish and ridiculous now."

"Tiranus, you'd better stop talking. You are becoming more and more like a clown."

"Yes, I am a clown, and we are all clowns. You should have read the 11 latest observation reports that were sent to you. Haha, some of the reports are very unclear, but I can announce the answers to you in advance.

.

They are all the same as what happened in the Garden of Life.

Ridiculous, isn't it?

You lead the Cult of Kosmos in an attempt to delay and delay the return of the gods;

But the branch gods of order, us ‘adults’, are actively promoting this process.

No matter how much effort you put into Norton and how long you plan ahead, it doesn't make sense.

Because we ‘adults’ are also one of the forces of the divine religion.

We are more legal-minded than you in this divine religion. In the eyes of outsiders, you Norton is the successor of Tiranus, but in fact, you are just an apostate."

"I'm sleepy."

"You should have a good rest. Ogurev will soon lead the two life gods back here, and the rest of us will only be a little slower than him.

The world where the gods return is not scary.

Because we are also the first batch of returning gods. Before we completely break up, you still have room to return, Norton.

We can protect the Cult of Kosmos, and I think this is what our Lord would like to see."

"Do not defile the Lord.

"Look, when we return one after another, I don't believe that the Knights of Order and the Priests of Order will be bewitched by you and launch an attack on us. All it takes is a wave of our hands... The Vatican and the Temple will welcome you.

Come to their true owners.

And you, Norton, will be judged by order."

"I don't deny that if I wave my hand, such a scene may really happen, but you... are not worthy.

"You'll see about it, Norton, soon."

The high priest opened his eyes and saw Karen sitting there, eating deliciously.

If it were Foden, he would eat obediently and naturally, but he would not have a real sense of food enjoyment.

The superiors are very sensitive, and Norton clearly sensed that this young man really regarded himself as a high priest, but he was only a high priest.

"Is it delicious?"

"To tell you the truth, it's delicious, really."

"I thought the Venn people have strong tastes and are not used to eating these light foods."

"I think it's just right."

"coffee table

"Yes, the great priest."

Karen picked up the napkin, wiped her hands, and took out the document bag.

There are many documents inside, and they are all observation reports.

When Karen saw the first copy, he didn't notice anything unusual. When he saw the fourth and fifth copies, he immediately realized it and spread out the first few copies to read.

This is a vision observed by the cult. A few are in inaccessible areas, and most of them are special places under the control of the cult.

area.

Every copy... is like a replica of the original Augurev Fortress.

However, the description in the report is vague and the progress is not high, but even so, "signs of return" are still observed.

In an instant, the joy brought by the delicious food was gone, replaced by deep and terrifying pressure.

That hand finally became clear.

No wonder my side and the Divine Cult have done so much, and the return process is not slow but fast... The reason is that the branch gods of the Order series, as if they had made an appointment, suddenly collectively

force!

Behind every branch god, just like Ogurev, there is a group of gods.

"well……"

Karen sighed without caring about the loss of etiquette.

This expression made the high priest laugh and asked: "What's wrong?"

Karen replied: "It's like a young child working hard to do something, but the elders in the family are trying their best to hold you back in the name of doing good for you."

"Yes, it's very vivid."

The high priest stretched out his hand, and without thinking, Karen handed a glass of ice-cold red wine to the high priest's hand.

The high priest took a sip and said, "I found that your thoughts and knowledge surpass most of the priests of order."

This kind of subtle and consistent synchronization makes people very comfortable, but when you look back, you will also find that something is wrong.

After all, he and Creed had to test and screen some of his inner thoughts before they could let them in, but every time this young man revealed them inadvertently, it seemed as if he had already entered the circle.

Karen replied: "It was all taught by the whip bearer. He often gave me homework and guided and inspired my thinking.

"Oh, so that's it."

The high priest nodded. Foden was indeed one of the few subordinates who could keep pace with him. It was not surprising that the people he taught could have this understanding.

The high priest no longer wondered why Foden was so kind to this young man, because the talent and ability shown by Karen had reached the point where it would be abnormal if Foden was not nice to this young man.

"Karen, tell me what you think."

"I have no idea, anyway...the "Ordinance of Order" clearly states how to punish apostates.

"Hehehehahahahaha..." The high priest laughed, "You simply put these adults, these branch gods who need to be enshrined and worshiped in other religious religions, into the rebellion.

Have you entered the teaching sequence?"

"High Priest, we have no other choice." Karen said, "There are countless stories recorded in "Symmetra", but there is only one word "compromise"."

"Do you know what this means?"

"I know that I have just returned from the Black Sea, and I have already simulated in my mind how this battle should be fought when our Lord Ogurev returns with the Lord God of Life and other gods.

This is destined to be a very difficult war. We don't know whether we can win. Even if we win, the losses will not be small.

From the intelligence point of view, we will fight 11 more similar wars.

Is this considered... a civil war in our Cult of Kosmos?

The blood of the believers of Order, the loyalty of the First Knights, how much will be consumed in this civil war, and how much will be left.

But we still have to fight."

"Why?"

"If we fight, there is still hope of winning. If we don't fight, then I will teach you that the order will be polluted in an instant."

Losing the courage to fight against God, losing the religion of Kosmos that maintains faith in order... will no longer be the religion of Kosmos.

The high priest was silent and spread out his other hand.

Karen cut the cigar, lit it, and placed it at his fingertips.

The high priest took a sip, spit it out slowly, and said:

"I am very pleased that I am willing to believe that you at least represent the thoughts of a large number of young Order believers."

"High Priest, I believe that my Lord also has the same idea."
