Almighty Alchemist

When a shark swims through a school of fish, all the fish panic and run away.

When a tiger comes to the pen, the mere breath is enough to drive the sheep crazy.

Along the way, the huge devouring force field emanating from Xiu Yi's body affected everyone around him.

Every time a worshiper's magical influence is removed, there are signs of chaos in the streets.

From this point of view, the Church of the Holy Spirit's pursuit of soul mages is indeed an act that is in their own interests: just one repair of Iglesel made Sarahan instantly chaotic.

However, this situation did not last for too long.

Xiu Yi's anger has caused too much trouble to the Church of the Holy Spirit. His purpose of coming here is to unite the power of the church, not to divide the power of the church. So this moment is also a small lesson for the other party.

This may reveal his coming, but to him, it doesn't matter anymore.

The cathedral of the Church of the Holy Spirit in the distance sounded the alarm bell, which seemed to have discovered the urgency of the problem.

It seems that this is not the first time that the Church of the Holy Spirit has encountered a believer with a sudden awareness, so it responds in time. A large number of holy priests rushed out of the church, releasing spells similar to holy prayers towards the sky.

The warm holy light shines like the sun, and every time it shines on a believer who runs away, it will make the other party stop and be in a state of confusion for a short time.

"An evil devil has entered Sarahan and cast an evil curse on the believers of the Holy God! Find this devil quickly!" A holy priest who seemed to be quite prestigious shouted.

A large number of holy warriors began to look for the perpetrators in the dark along the street. They seemed to be quite experienced. The warriors were in charge of interrogation, questioning, and armed warnings.

A man in the sky, a holy priest wearing a white holy robe and a three-cornered hat, looked around solemnly.

His eyes seemed to have a strange magic power, exuding a soft magic light, spreading around like water ripples. These water patterns are invisible and colorless in the air, and can only be detected with elemental perception. Every time they touch a person, some small ripples will splash on his body, and then continue to spread outward.

Xiu Yi's heart moved slightly, knowing that this should be another reconnaissance spell guided by eyes. This spell is likely to have a special perception effect on the power in the human body, and the other party uses this method to perceive an unknown powerful existence around them. This method can find out the noteworthy characters first, and then distinguish between friends and foes.

But the current Xiu Yi is no longer able to be detected by just anyone.

His heart moved slightly, and all the power in his body stopped, simulating a state like an ordinary person.

The aura of strength spread to him, like water rushing past a still giant whale without splashing a single wave.

The magic search range of the holy archmage seemed to be quite wide, and he continued to explore for a long distance before floating down from the air.

He came to a cardinal, and said to the bishop: "Master Eastmand, only four confirmed warriors and one magician were found, but they were all low-level existences. We didn't find any too powerful enemies around. Maybe the enemy who caused us trouble has already escaped."

The archbishop in red shook his head slightly: "Don't jump to conclusions lightly, Miguel, if you haven't found the enemy, it doesn't mean that the enemy is not here. The real result may be the opposite. It's not that he's not here, it's just that you can't find him because the enemy is too powerful."

"yes."

"However, sometimes, some things do not necessarily require magic to be done. Calm observation is sometimes more effective than magic." The archbishop in red said suddenly.

His gaze cut through the chaotic long street like lightning, and suddenly landed on Xiu Yi.

There was a trace of confidence in seeing everything in those eyes.

Xiu Yi froze for a moment, met the eyes of the archbishop in red, and the two of them just looked at each other.

At the same moment, they seemed to understand a lot.

The cold eyes of the archbishop in red finally dimmed.

He sighed softly: "Let the priests continue to perform the appeasement work, solve all the chaos immediately, and then let the holy warriors close the team."

"What?" The scout mage named Miguel was stunned: "Master Eastmand, what do you mean?"

"I've already seen it with the light guide spell. The fact may be as you said, the enemy has already left. So, close the team. This matter is over now, and there is no need to mention it again."

"But……"

"I will explain to the Pope!" The cardinal's voice was stern, and Miguel finally bowed his head and remained silent.

The order to close the team was issued, and all the holy warriors returned at the same time, and returned to various places under the leadership of the ministers. Priests are also returning after reusing spells affecting previously out-of-control worshipers. The spell of cleansing people's hearts can't be effective just once or twice, it needs long-term accumulation, but as long as the dissatisfaction and hatred in the hearts of those believers can be temporarily appeased, the crisis can be resolved first.

The street finally returned to calm, and everything became as normal as before.

Only Xiu Yi stood coldly at the corner of the street, looking at the archbishop in red.

He suddenly said to Little Bill: "You go back first, I want to stroll here alone."

Little Bill was frightened by everything that happened today, and hurriedly nodded and fled.

Xiu Yi sent a mysterious smile to the archbishop in red, then turned and walked towards a teahouse.

Cardinal Eastmand thought for a while, and finally followed.

———————————

The environment in the teahouse is clean and elegant, especially after the incident just now, the business has run out.

Xiu Yi asked for a room, and sat alone in the room and waited.

Soon, there was a polite knock on the door outside the wing.

"Please come in."

Eastmand opened the door and entered.

"I'm sorry to bother you. I'm Cardinal Eastmand of the Church of the Holy Spirit. My friend from afar. I hope you will have the opportunity to let me be a landlord."

The majestic archbishop in red was suddenly so polite to a young man from an unfamiliar background. If outsiders saw it, they would probably lose their teeth in shock.

Xiuyi smiled, and pointed to the opposite side: "Master Eastmand, please sit down."

He didn't stand up to greet him.

Eastmand sat down across from Huey, unceremoniously.

Looking at Xiu Yi's young and handsome face, he suddenly sighed slightly, and then said: "Your Excellency Xiu Yiglaer, I really admire your courage. With your means, you don't have to use such a poor disguise."

"It's fine if you can hide it from ordinary people. Anyway, when you come to Sarahan, you want to deal with some big figures from the Church of the Holy Spirit." Xiuyi replied indifferently.

It is not surprising that Eastmand can see through his identity at a glance.

The whole street was so chaotic at that time, only he remained calm all the time.

Most of the people in Sarahah didn't have the chance to see him repairing Iglesel, but people at the cardinal level are very likely to have seen his battle on Yinyue Peak, so they naturally know his figure and appearance. He simply changed the color of his hair and put on some makeup. Eastmand could connect with the image of the terrifying Xiu Yi on Yinyue Peak with just one glance.

Considering that there are only a handful of strong men who can make Sarahan into such a mess, and there is only one person who will appear in Sarahan in the near future, Eastmand can naturally guess the identity of the other party.

To Huey's satisfaction, Eastmand was indeed a smart man. After he found out, he didn't order people to do it immediately, but immediately dispatched all the search warriors and came to meet Xiuyi alone.

"Why didn't you inform His Majesty the Pope immediately, instead of coming to see me first?" Xiuyi asked.

Eastmand sighed: "Since you openly said that you want to visit the Church of the Holy Spirit, you must have your reasons. I think, no matter what the motive behind it is, the church should listen to it before making a decision. What's more, with your current strength, even the strong in the sanctuary are not your opponents. Why should I drag a large number of church elites to die?"

Huey smiled.

Although the Church of the Holy Spirit did not welcome Xiu Yi's arrival with great fanfare on the surface, secretly, there were still a group of people who believed that they should try to negotiate peace with Xiu Yi. After all, Xiu Yi's current strength has far exceeded their imagination. The sanctuary could not defeat him, and the human sea tactics also had no chance of winning against the puppet army. No matter what kind of era, it is not wise to be an enemy of the strong.

Eastmand is a representative figure of this idea.

Before Xiu Yi came, Mi Yeya analyzed some situations of the internal figures of the Church of the Holy Spirit for him. At that time, he told Xiu Yi with certainty that out of consideration of his own interests, the Pope might not be able to tolerate a figure like Xiu Yi who turned out of the sky, but for many people under the Pope, it might not be impossible.

Cooperating with a soul mage will certainly hurt the dignity and face of the Church of the Holy Spirit, but it is better than being destroyed by a super sanctuary.

So before coming here, Miya gave Xiu Yi a suggestion.

Of course, including Xiuyi himself, he did not expect that this proposal was actually carried out under such circumstances.

I hope this Eastman has not only enough wisdom and vision, but also enough courage.

At this moment, Eastmand asked: "May I ask you, what is the reason for coming here?"

Xiu Yi replied: "For the future destiny of mankind."

Only then did Xiu Yi tell the incident about the upcoming invasion of the abyss.

This news was like a blockbuster, which left Eastmand stunned.

"Lord Eastmand, I'm sorry that I used some inappropriate methods to lure you out. But first, I really don't like the way the Church of the Holy Spirit absorbs believers. Second, I need to talk to someone who has enough weight before I can meet the Pope. Fortunately, Lord Eastmand, you really came, and you have the vision and mind I expected. Then I think we can talk about the next thing."

"What's next? What else?"

"Combine all the continents to fight against the abyss and let go of all religious prejudices. This is a very difficult choice. When necessary, the holy knights of the Holy Spirit Church and the destruction knights of the Scourge Church may even fight for the fate of mankind on the same battlefield. I am very worried that His Majesty the Pope will not agree to such an alliance. At this time, I need the support of some allies. Unfortunately, I have no foundation in the Holy Spirit Church, so I can only use this method to actively win over everyone who may become my ally. Lord Eastmand, I hope you can be the first of them one."

"It's ridiculous. I haven't known you for an hour."

"This has nothing to do with friendship, it's only about survival." Xiu Yi said seriously.

Eastmand lowered his head and thought for a while, and finally said: "I admit that what you said is very reasonable, but Hugh Iglesle, why don't you talk to His Majesty the Pope directly about this issue? Why do you think he will firmly disagree?"

"Because he is the Pope, and his position...is different from ours." Huey replied slowly: "The Pope is not only a religious leader, but also a politician. Lord Eastmand, do you know what a politician is? They regard the world as a chessboard and human life as pawns. They can sacrifice anything and give up everything. I can tell you very responsibly, Lord Eastmand, His Majesty the Pope will never agree to unite with the Scourge Church. Because he will see very long-term, long-term enough for that one vain possibilities, and abandon the imminent crisis."

"What illusory possibility?"

"The invasion of the Northern Continent by the Scourge Church." Xiu Yi paused every word.

The Scourge Church is a religion that preaches that the doomsday is coming as its main doctrine, and declares that only they can save the world, because their gods saw the coming disaster a long time ago and made various countermeasures. The Scourge Church exists with the destiny of saving the world.

In order to combat heresy, the Church of the Holy Spirit accused all other sects of heresy. Therefore, the Church of the Holy Spirit has absolutely spared no effort in accusing the Church of Natural Disasters. They claim that the Holy Spirit protects the world, and as long as they believe in the Holy Spirit, they don't have to worry about the invasion of evil beings.

But now the problem is coming, the abyss invasion has become an imminent action.

The prestige of the Church of the Holy Spirit is bound to be greatly affected by this, while the prestige of the Church of the Scourge will definitely increase.

If the continents cooperate, then the power of each church can freely enter each other's world, and by the way, they can preach their own teachings without hindrance. Under the threat of the abyss, the teachings of the Church of the Holy Spirit are definitely unreasonable, but the teachings of the Church of the Scourge are bound to become popular. Even without the control of magic, the brainwashing of the doctrine can bring a large number of believers to the Church of the Scourge.

In other words, even if the invasion of the abyss can be repelled in the future, I am afraid that the Church of the Holy Spirit will only face the separation of believers and the situation where the enemy sect dominates, and it will still be destroyed in the end.

This is the simplest trend, and His Majesty the Pope cannot fail to see it.

Under such circumstances, asking him to cooperate willingly with the Scourge Church...is really too difficult.

Xiuyi just reminded him briefly, and Eastmand immediately understood the key point.

He was a little stunned, apparently he didn't expect Xiu Yi to see the problem so far.

He didn't simply think about the problem from the opposite side of the pope, but from the position of the pope, so he came to a conclusion easily.

"I...I don't believe that His Majesty the Pope will make such a decision in this situation."

Huey smiled: "I hope it doesn't, but you know that when people do things, sometimes they have to think about the problem from the worst angle, and then plan ahead."

"What are you going to do?"

"It's very simple. If he is sensible enough, then it would be the best. If not, then we can only change to the pope." Xiuyi took a sip of the tea in his cup: "Then change to a responsible superior."
