With Shadow Robo's direct agreement to negotiate privately with Melissa, the three-party conflict at Wild Grape Manor quickly came to an end.

Of course, such a hasty ending was only because the three forces were not satisfied with their performance in this encounter, so they no longer rigidly believed in the dogmatic belief that "the brave will win when two meet in a narrow road", but chose to "take a step back and the sky will be broader."

In other words, retreat to advance, take a short break, and then start a new round of cutting.

However, in that case it would not be a battle of encounter, but a new round of contest that was carefully planned.

It was precisely because of this consideration that Ying Luobo did not start the PY transaction with Melissa shortly after leaving Wild Grape Manor.

But it was a day later.

The location was also chosen by Ying Luobo, the ruins of an abandoned elven observatory.

Most of the dome had collapsed, and the remaining part was covered with cracks. Moonlight flowed through the broken window panes.

Shadow Robo sat on the moss-covered base of the planetarium, rubbing his fingertips over the etchings of the remaining magic circle.

The light of energy flowed out from Shadow Robo's fingers, flowing quietly in the dents like water, the dark green against the scarlet, mysterious and weird.

A dozen footsteps came from the shore of the corridor, becoming clearer and clearer. Later, one could even hear the sound of gravel being swept by the ends of cloaks.

When the silver-bottomed green-striped mask of Carlo, a high-ranking paladin of the Crow Hunters, appeared in the shadow of the door, Shadow Robo deliberately let the sacred crystal orb that he was playing with like a health ball in his other hand emit light. This crystal orb was condensed from the essence elements collected by his powerful extraordinary resource absorption ability after he killed many members of the Crow Hunters with the Law of Honkai Cannon the night before.

"I thought I would meet the high-level priest who was more favored by the gods." Ying Luobo continued to coil the two crystal beads, but he put his other hand behind his back and began to make hand gestures.

Carlo was a military attaché in the church, and he had also chimed in the night before to express his tough attitude. Ying Luobo was already preparing for the other party to think that he was good enough and would not make a fuss if he could take action.

Carlo continued to approach alone, while the remaining Holy Warriors spread out and occupied advantageous positions centered on the door.

The silver mask glowed coldly in the moonlight. Carlo, who came close to Shadow Robo, rolled his Adam's apple three times before he spoke.

Angry and afraid, this distance was naturally enough for him to confirm what the crystal bead in Ying Luobo's hand meant.

To be honest, he really wanted to rush over and fight with Shadow Lobo to the death. Even if he died in the battle, he could face his dead comrades in the Kingdom of God with dignity (he didn't know that under the Law Order Honkai Cannon, his holy warrior comrades had no chance to return to the Kingdom of God,

Instead, they are directly saved.)

Unfortunately, practicing killing skills diligently and sacrificing one's life in battle to repay God's kindness is not his career script.

As for those opportunists and those who value their lives, the gods always find ways to make them sacrifice their lives and be loyal to them, making those guys tremble in fear, lose their appetite, and unable to sleep at night.

On the contrary, for someone like him who really doesn't mind sacrificing his life, the gods hope that he will live long and even personally send down an oracle for this purpose.

To this, he can only say, as the Pope said: "The divine is watching over each of us and arranging for each of us trials that will help us grow and transcend."

At this moment, he took on a humble attitude and said, "The information you want is hidden in the Holy Relics Vault. It will take some effort to retrieve it."

Ying Luobo frowned. He was not sure what the Life Church was up to.

Before he could raise any questions, Carlo took the initiative to explain: "After we parted the night before, the think tank of the Church Alliance analyzed and speculated on your purpose, and basically confirmed that you were looking for the Son of Night in this region.

It must be said that in the eyes of the gods, the Children of the Night are living fossils and are of great research value.

This means that the church alliance has its own division of labor in this area.

The main project promoted by the Church of Light and the Church of Life is the Light Chaser Project represented by the Black Light Clan. Other projects are not of interest to them. Even if there is a need for linkage occasionally, the relevant information will be shelved to avoid overstepping the boundaries. "

Ying Luobo's brows became more and more furrowed.

It's not that I found any loopholes, on the contrary, it's because the other party's remarks are not only logical but also overly honest.

This is not to say that the gods do not pay attention to cultivating the virtue of honesty among their clergy.

As far as Shadow Rob knew, the church attached great importance to the cultivation of its members' moral character. However, there was a prerequisite: it should be as warm as spring to its own people and as cruel as winter to its enemies.

According to the teachings of the gods, enemies are basically evil demons, and talking about morality with them is weakness and betrayal.

It is also because of this that, from the perspective of non-faith systems, the entire faith system, from clergy to believers, are all witnesses of the devil, and the highest level of fanatics among them are basically equivalent to mental patients.

Just think about it, if a group of guys like this suddenly become reasonable and act like a butcher with an attitude of "Brother, listen to me", would you be alert?

It's so different from the basic character setting that it will of course make people wary.

"Go on." Ying Luobo expressed his suspicion, but he was not ready to give up the negotiation.

It's about giving the other party a chance to convince themselves.

In fact, the type of seal that Shadow Robo's hands behind his back had already changed.

He thought that if Carlo was trying to buy time so that he could secretly arrange the binding method, then the specific method would be:

It must be something very important.

Because he had already taught these guys a lesson the night before, showing off his high level of skills. It was like saying: Even though I am not yet a Legend, I have a technical level. When the Saint comes, we have to compete with each other to confirm who is better.

He believed that such a short period of time would not be enough for the gang to forget the beating.

So, if they still choose to use tricks to set up a trap, it is most likely that they are backed by the gods themselves.

After all, the descent of the God of Life the night before was a complete failure. The God of Life will definitely take revenge on this place quickly, accurately and ruthlessly.

For the belief system of authoritarian rule, face is really important.

Based on this, the God of Life, regardless of his identity, repeatedly gave cheats to the thugs of his own church, enabling them to target him. From a certain perspective, he had no choice but to do so.

After all, if the boss's face is not effective, the team will become difficult to lead -

Taking this into consideration, Shadow Robo naturally turned to Black Robo for help.

Who doesn’t have a backer these days?

There weren't actually many things that Black Robo could do to affect Robo, and it wasn't even an immediate response, but rather a triggering of an emergency mechanism that had been set up long ago.

Thus, Shadow Lobo obtained a temporary authority buff granted by the Scepter of Nature, allowing him to detect the sinister tricks of the gods.

Sure enough, the church didn’t hold back its fart.

What's interesting is that the church was very bold this time, thinking in reverse and playing a trick of hiding the truth. Specifically, there was no trickery on the periphery, nor on the Raven Paladins, but it was Carlo who was causing the trouble.

This guy's body has been deformed, and he is currently arranging a soul worship ceremony.

When it comes to faith, the gods are very experienced.

The soul belief ceremony can be a process of converting believers, or it can be a trap grafted with various appearances. For example, the negotiation seems to be just a matter of fact. For example, after listening to Carlo's honest explanation, Shadow Rob decided to give him another chance and postpone the negotiation time.

This attitude of recognition is likely to be cleverly grafted, just like signing a real or fake contract, looking at Contract A but signing Contract B.

Ying Luobo narrowed his eyes slightly and secretly activated the foreshadowing he had laid before.

He had touched the remaining magic circle here not out of boredom.

The fact that he chose to meet here had a profound meaning in itself.

After all, at this point in time, he is definitely the best in terms of understanding the elves' technological system.

This is another technical trick that the backer behind him can show him.

As the foreshadowing was activated, the magic circuit began to shift subtly, and the scarlet light that was dimly flowing in the indentations of the moss-covered magic circle was quickly completing and even constructing the magic circle.

It was this magic circle that allowed Ying Luobo to further spy on Carlo's abnormality.

Although Carlo tried his best to cover it up, Ying Robo still discovered that Carlo's metabolism at this moment was several times faster than that of an ordinary extraordinary person of his level.

However, this kind of power, which is comparable to that in a fierce fight, was not expressed externally at all.

So, where did all this produced power go?

Of course, it is to construct a magic model in a special space, or in other words, to hold back the ultimate move!

At the same time, Ying Luobo continued to talk to Carlo: "What you said is logically correct. The question is, why should I accommodate your internal problems?"

Carlo had put a lot of effort into the preparation for this operation, for example, he had a verbal fight with Shadow Robo.

There is a team behind the scenes working hard to research and cope with various scenarios.

In this regard, Carlo is not panicking at all now, and said regretfully: "This is indeed our problem. We have always had problems of one kind or another internally. Facing emergencies, we are not able to respond properly. This is not uncommon, if not commonplace."

It must be said that Carlo is acting in his true colors at this moment.

The Church Alliance, and even within each church, there are all kinds of problems that make people laugh and cry, and make people anxious. Carlo usually suffers from it, and his complaints at this time are naturally sincere and come from the heart.

Carlo added: "We want to make a deal with you. After all, it very likely means ascending to the Kingdom of God as a Holy Spirit, a saint, and a righteous person. We can despise worldly wealth, but we cannot refuse the glory of serving God.

But some objective facts make us helpless and we can only try our best. Like this time, we can show more sincerity.

For example, we can tell you where highly confidential information is stored.

They are even willing to reveal the operating mechanisms, personnel lists, and even the locations of the armed forces guarding these data.

If you are interested, you can go get it yourself."

Ying Luobo smiled and said, "Why do you treat me so well? After all, your bad reputation is widely known in the supernatural circle."

"Of course it is value." Carlo said without blushing or beating his heart. He did not lie and continued to act in his true colors.

The church represented by him really valued the value of Shadow Robb. However, the plan they worked out on how to obtain this value and how to use it was not very friendly to the person involved.

Simply put, it means arresting, torturing, using them as guinea pigs, and so on.

"Value..." Ying Luobo smiled and said, "Everything you said is logical. The only flaw is that it does not conform to the logic of the clergy, but the logic of the selfish and unscrupulous people."

As he was speaking, there was no sign of Robbo making any drastic movements, nor any disturbance caused by the explosion of his supernatural power. He suddenly appeared in front of Carlo, and with an irresistible and absolute quality, he grabbed Carlo's neck with one hand and lifted him off the ground.

As for the supernatural power shield that activated itself on Carlo's body, it became brittle and then shattered and splashed like broken glass.

Shadow Robo said grimly, "You'd better reorganize your words and say something that will satisfy me."

At this moment, the clouds that had previously blocked the moon slid away, and the cold moonlight poured into the ruined hall. Carlo's throat, which was clearly pinched, made a strange sound, as if his trachea was being crushed inch by inch, or like his bones were being squeezed, or even like a weird laugh.

His silver mask with the holy symbol of life painted on it cracked and fell off automatically, revealing a face covered in spells.

His mouth did not move, or rather, he had not been speaking with his mouth all along, as it had been sewn up for the purpose of the ritual. He was using the art of ventriloquism.

From a certain perspective, this is like a hacker using a hacked "meat machine" to commit crimes in order to avoid being visited by law enforcement.

In the realm of the supernatural, once some words are spoken, they will generate great consequences. Carlo wanted to avoid such things.

After all, he was going to "sign" with Shadow Robo, and if he wanted to successfully deceive Shadow Robo, he had to be real enough. Although skills like ventriloquism would also cause him to breach the contract and suffer backlash, it was much lighter in comparison.

Of course, at this moment, he could no longer use this strategy of hurting the enemy by a thousand and hurting himself by eight hundred. Instead, he used another strategy. He said in a coercive and contemptuous tone, "Blood slave, your reaction now was also anticipated by us."

The dramatic change from respectful at first to insulting later was to stimulate Shadow Robo and bring him into another narrative track. Carlo was very confident in insulting PUA.

"So what's the reaction now?" Ying Luobo snapped his fingers, and all the entourage who came with Carlo this time turned into a ball of rapidly burning ash in the first moment.

Carlo couldn't hold it in anymore this time and his face changed drastically.

He had realized that from the very beginning when he was delaying time to plot against Ying Luobo, Ying Luobo was also delaying time to plot against him.

Neither of them had any intention of engaging in conventional negotiations. Both wanted to make the other party a prisoner first and then extract the information they wanted from him.

So what happened next was that they just exchanged verbal attacks on the surface, but secretly they were reading bars and casting spells.

As it turns out, Shadow Robo's reading speed is more efficient and powerful enough.

Like the mysterious and powerful killing effect that Shadow Robo was displaying now, which was almost like divine means, Carlo simply couldn't understand the logic behind it?

This means that his achievements in the extraordinary field and his current knowledge are not even a little bit behind Shadow Robbie.

Similarly, he has completely failed in this secret struggle so far.
