Apostle of Cthulhu

"Chaos Goddess?" Joe looked at the familiar back, and he really didn't expect that the person who appeared in front of him would be her, "Why are you here?"

The voice of the Chaos Goddess was very ethereal, just like the voice of the bishop, empty and ethereal, "Aren't you looking for Curtis Brandt? Then it's not normal for you to find me?"

As soon as this sentence came out, Joe, who was originally quite smart, immediately understood what she meant.

"You... are Curtis Brandt?"

The Chaos Goddess turned around, and Joe would never forget that face in his life!

He spent a lot of effort to record the beauty of Curtis Brandt in a painting, and the face in front of him was exactly the same as the person in the painting!

Joe had never seen the face of the Chaos Goddess, and the communication they had was only the communication of consciousness or with her back facing him. He could never have thought that Curtis Brandt, who had been missing for many years, was the Chaos Goddess!

"It's been a long time since we last met, Joe."

If Joe was still affected by gravity, he would have fallen to his knees and lost control of his emotions.

But now he was in a state of soul, and would not be affected by gravity. His legs were limp and he knelt on the ground.

Joe couldn't cry either, because the soul wouldn't cry.

But the person he had been thinking about stood in front of him intact. Joe still couldn't suppress his emotions and called out the name he had been wanting to call out for the past few years.

"Mom..."

Many people in the empire didn't know that Curtis Brandt had an adopted son, and his name was Joe Rupert.

This adopted son was not picked up from outside, but "popped" out of nothingness during an experiment by a missionary in the empire.

At that time, Joe was already five years old, and no one dared to raise this child who appeared out of thin air.

Only Curtis chose to accept him, teach him knowledge, and help him grow up.

After Curtis disappeared, Joe was the one who wanted to find her the most.

It can be said that Curtis is Joe Rupert's mother!

"Good boy." Curtis showed a tired smile on her face, "You have been looking for me for these years. I have been watching you by your side, so... you can finally relax."

"No..." Joe seemed to have not completely figured out the situation, "Why... why is it you? I... I don't understand, shouldn't you be a human?"

Curtis smiled gently and shook her head, "I have existed since the birth of this world. But in a sense, I am not a god. I can only be regarded as a creature that is "qualified" to be a god. In your opinion, I have great power, but in front of those real "gods", I am still not worth mentioning."

If Siwei was here now, he would definitely know why he could always find Curtis's shadow in some memories.

Because she was a life form that existed at the beginning of the world, he could hear her name in the city of Haleiya and see her face in the Balem Apartment decades ago.

Just because she survived for so long.

Kotishi would not tell Qiao more about the unnecessary things, because Qiao was not qualified to enter the Old Parliament like Siwei, and did not know as much about this world as Siwei did.

Therefore, she simplified her words and said to Qiao: "Do you remember a project I had set up in the early days of our Star Foundation?"

Qiao nodded. Only a few core members knew about this project.

One was Kotishi, one was himself, and the other was Nidhogg.

"I know... the God-making Project, right?"

At that time, Qiao could not understand what this plan meant, because the core of this plan was Siwei, who had been listed as the last member of the expedition team before he was born.

Their goal was to use the Balem Network to let Siwei reach the top of the ninth node and become a real god!

This is why, when Qiao was in Akara, he knew that he might be used, but he still chose to help Siwei.

Because he knew very well that the Star Foundation had a core project that was established for Siwei!

Curtis nodded with satisfaction, "Very good, it's best if you remember. Now, our plan has reached the most critical moment. Before that, I want to tell you... Nancy and Jia Greenwell, their goals are the same as ours, you have to help each other."

"Okay... okay! No problem!" Joe never refused Curtis's request, no matter how outrageous the request was, "Then what should I do now? I don't even know where Siwei is, how should I act?"

"You don't need to know where Siwei is," Curtis said, "When the time is right, you and him... will naturally meet."

When the time is right? When will that be?

Joe didn't know, but as long as Curtis said so, he would never have any doubts.

This was his most firm trust in his mother as a child.

"But you still have things to do," Curtis's gentle eyes fell on Joe, who hadn't felt such a look for many years. "The empire is now in turmoil, and the dignitaries are competing for the greatest benefits by taking the opportunity of impeaching Egbert. This is our chance."

Joe frowned slightly, "What does this sentence mean?"

Curtis's smile faded a little, "The current empire does not need Egbert, a sinner. He is an ignorant guy. In order to consolidate his control over the doctrine of the spirit guard, he wanted the messenger of the spirit guard. The spirit guard and I are similar. Even if he can tolerate this behavior, I can't."

What Egbert did was to challenge the dignity of the gods!

Norris Anderson and the spirit guard didn't care. Anyway, the current spirit guard doctrine was useless and was just a tool for the empire to imprison people's hearts.

But both the bishop and Curtis could not tolerate this behavior.

This sentence made Joe react.

His current mission is to assassinate Egbert.

Although Joe is very powerful, if he really wants to assassinate Egbert, he still needs to be prepared.

Because of Curtis, Joe can be considered a half-noble in the empire.

At present, he has not revealed his identity as a member of the Star Foundation, and he is still a member of the nobility in the public eye.

If he wants to hide the fact that he assassinated Egbert, he must conceal it from many missionary-related agencies such as the Divine Court and the Court of Inquisition.

Joe doesn't mind difficult challenges!
