Chapter 59 The Sage and the Fatty

Salomon didn't expect that Luca would call in a few hours, but he didn't doubt the clues provided by the reporter, because this guy would do anything to find out the truth now.

After he hung up the phone, he looked up at Rodin. Luca's voice was so loud that even Rodin standing behind the bar could hear him. After the bar owner in sunglasses gave Salomon a chocolate sundae, he reached for the remote control in the bar counter—behind the bar is the bar owner’s territory, customers are not allowed to reach out, this is the rule of Hell’s Gate Bar .

"I am standing in front of the Yizavel Tower in Vigrid, the holy place of Ragnarism. It is said that this year is the day of the arrival of the main god of Ragnarism, 'Jubileus the Creator' every five hundred years. Believers from all over the world hold Looking forward to Easter and cheering for it." The small LCD TV hanging on the wall in the bar switched to the WNN World News Channel, the host was explaining, and the screen was full of Ragnars in gold-rimmed white robes, holding hands. facing the same direction; then the screen turned, and the screen was full of Ragnar priests. Their clothes were also white, but they had no hoods. On the front of the tall and wide white hats, there was Golden sun logo.

Fake news! Salomon pouted.

The history of the Ragnar Cult may not have passed the second five hundred years, and this Easter may have been announced shortly, but those Ragnar Cultists still firmly believe in it. A young religion has such influence, which is probably the reason why the supreme mage decided to conceal the existence of gods and demons, otherwise, the fragile human mind would not be able to resist the temptation of faith. Although some young people do not believe in religion very much, they will also repost some superstitious things on social media, which is also a manifestation of filling the gap in belief.

Faith is like poison! This is Salomon's idea, so he doesn't believe in anything, he can't bear the feeling that his mind is controlled by others.

"But on the other hand, people have committed suicide one after another in order to praise the coming of the Lord God. Yesterday, the high priest of Ragnarism and more than 20 believers committed suicide collectively, and the church where their bodies were placed was destroyed by unknown persons. Countries regard this incident as an abnormal situation , asking the Ragnarians to remain calm."

What appeared in the picture was the church that Bayonetta and Salomon had visited last night, but perhaps because the current situation of the church is terrible, the picture shown on the TV was when the church was still intact.

"It's none of my business. That big guy made it." Beunita said, resting her chin on her hands, "That's why that little wild cat told us to watch TV?"

Salomon shook his head, "Maybe it hasn't been played yet. You know, even the live broadcast is delayed, maybe it's because the signal of this demiplane is not good. Mr. Rodin, I'm definitely not talking bad about you. , please don’t take my ice cream away.”

"The president of the Yizawei Group, who actually dominates this religious city, appeared in front of the public for the first time."

Rodin offered Bayonetta an apple martini at the right time, "There is a lot of turmoil in the human world."

"It's too stupid." Enzo's chubby, jeweled palm was waving whiskey, his cigar had been forcefully extinguished by Rodin when Salomon walked in. He said, "Giving your life to bring the gods back? But it's only these stupid people who make my business."

"Aha? You used money to hold a funeral for someone? You are not a good person." Rodin fully expressed his disdain for Enzo. But Enzo was not annoyed by Rodin's mood. On the contrary, Salomon was very satisfied with Enzo. Although this guy was fat, greedy for money, and liked to show off his wealth, his spirit was free and he had never been kidnapped by religion.

So he was very moved and ordered a sundae again, and charged it to Enzo's account - Rodin also welcomed this kind of behavior. Enzo always likes to owe money for drinks, and this sundae can be regarded as interest. Anyway, Enzo couldn't remember exactly how much he owed Rodin for the wine, and it didn't matter if it was more.

"I have always been a good citizen, as long as I have the money to get it." The intelligence dealer turned his head and said, the huge ruby ​​ring on his little finger was still shining in the dim light, "People with a conscience don't want to deal with these people with brains. What about sick believers. Tell me, isn’t what I’m doing charity? Hahaha!”

"Then you should donate money to the church." Bayonetta said holding a glass of wine. Rodin's wine was always to her taste. "Pay me as soon as possible, Enzo."

Although Enzo really wanted to resist, he even wanted to prevaricate it by saying that Bayonetta was hunting angels for entertainment, but he never succeeded once, and it was the same this time. He said, "If you hadn't made such a mess of the cathedral, I'd be paid more than that! Think a little for me, Bayonetta!"

It didn't take long for the noisy daily life in the Gate of Hell bar to be interrupted by the sound of the TV. Even though the volume was not loud, the loud cheers still attracted the attention of everyone in the bar.

"That's him! The president of the Yizaweier Group, Badr, finally showed up! Even the huge wealth brought by the Yizaweier group, and the economic development of the supporter Vigrid can't be overstated. Del, maybe we can solve these suicides..."

The camera shifted to a building that was located at an unknown location. According to the decoration style in the picture, those golden ray patterns imitating sunlight, anyone could tell that this was the building of the Ragnar Order. Then the camera switched, and a white platform appeared in the picture. This platform had a shape as if the legs of a chair were removed. The white surface was decorated with many golden lines; on the top of the platform, there were two golden circles. Rings and a semicircular ring, nested from small to large. Many golden spears protrude from the center of the circle. The spears on the X-axis and the positive Y-axis are the longest, and the second longest are two rays at a 45-degree angle. In addition, there are some golden spears of different lengths. spikes.

A man in a gorgeous white robe was standing on the stage.

"It's this guy! He paid the reward this time!" Enzo shouted, pointing at the TV. The person in the picture is dressed even more religiously than Salomon. The white high-necked robe has red piping, and there is even a peacock with a purple crown and a white peacock on the shoulder. The peacock head is on the left shoulder and the peacock tail is on the right shoulder. , with a sun-shaped watch on the right chest. Enzo said, "This man is the leader of the Ragnar sect, and he has not shown his face to the public so far. But this Easter, which occurs once every 500 years. alive or not."

Salomon narrowed his eyes—Of course Baldr was still alive 500 years ago, because he was the sage of lumen, possessing the power of an angel, and it was easy for a person to live 500 years with such power. The guy on the TV with his white hair combed back and the golden mask on the left half of his face is the Baldr mentioned by the supreme mage.

"What the Yizaweier Group possesses is the most cutting-edge technology that this ancient religious city cannot see. The believers regard these as miracles." Enzo's explanation continued. It's just that what he said next was something that Beunita already knew, such as the information that Badr was the last member of the sage family.

Duplicate intelligence is worthless! This makes Enzo's plan to pay in arrears fail again.

"He paid Bayunita's salary? If that's the case, the church yesterday was probably a trap, and he might have sent that angel." Salomon asked, "but Bayunita was unharmed. ! If it was to catch Beunita, shouldn’t he send someone more powerful?”

"We don't know what Bader is thinking." Rodin said, "So far, we can only take action according to the situation."

Salomon nodded, and he sighed, "That's the only way. I will return to Karma Taj and report this matter to the Supreme Mage. Before I come to a definite solution...Beyoni Ta, you'd better not hunt angels, no one knows if that's Baldr's trap, Bayunita?"

The witch seemed to be distracted, and then Salomon, who had keen hearing, could even hear a "boo", and she took out a tube of brass-wrapped lipstick from the bottomless ditch on her chest. Bayunita twisted her lipstick, and a gust of cold air came out,

"Is this what you brought with you when you woke up?" Rodin asked.

"right."

"Doesn't this thing remind you of anything?"

"yes."

"You can show it to the mystic." Rodin pointed to Salomon beside him, "I don't know the spell above, but maybe there is a clue in Karma Taj's library. If you know this It might be able to recall something."

Bayonetta is now more and more interested in this Badr. Because just now, Badr suddenly looked at the news camera in the distance, as if he was looking at the witch in front of the TV. And he also said something that no one heard except Beunita. That sentence brought a series of memories to Bayunita's mind - she seemed to be in the tower and forest in the fire, the heat surrounded her; she saw the peacock feathers floating in the air, protruding from behind The man in white with feathers, and those feathers that fell to the world like white snow.

"I'm waiting for you, dear daughter..."

The witch is like an enemy. But everything in the picture is as usual, it seems that the man named Bader did not turn his head to say that sentence, everything is Bayonetta's illusion. Except for her, the others who were also watching the TV didn't notice anything unusual at all.

daughter? Why would Baldr call her that? Salomon said that both the sage and the witch are the last one left, but due to the scarcity of information, no one knows whether Baldr and Bayoneta are related.

"I'm going home, my sons said they want to celebrate my birthday!" Enzo drank the wine in his glass and stood up from his seat.

"Are you not going to pay today?"

"It's your birthday present to me! Thank you, Rodin." Enzo walked out swaggeringly, "I will contact you if there is a work entrustment!"

"Damn dead fat pig!"

"Ciao~!"
