Mystery: The arrival of the new Black Emperor

Hobert was stunned for a few seconds before he reacted: "You mean, Full Moon Lake, or South Colson, is polluting the Beyonders?"

"No, we are the only ones susceptible to contamination!" Bishop Simpson said: "Even ordinary Mother Goddess missionaries will have strange beliefs if they stay near Full Moon Lake for a long time.

"Currently, Extraordinaries from other routes will not be contaminated as long as they are not close to the center of Full Moon Lake."

Hobert guessed: "Is there a sealed object of the 'cultivator' path in the lake?"

Bishop Simpson glanced at Hobert: "It seems that you have a wealth of occult knowledge, so I don't need to explain it."

He sighed and added: "The church feels your kindness, but we also have our own difficulties. The archbishop has approved me to tell you this secret. I hope you can understand our difficulties in evacuating here."

Hobert nodded slightly and listened attentively.

Bishop Simpson organized his words: "The whole thing started 58 years ago. It was a summer night. According to the locals, the red moon that day seemed to be particularly bright.

"About midnight, a meteorite fell from the sky and hit the Full Moon Lake. There were not many casualties at first, but the crops were flooded a lot.

"But the day after the disaster occurred, the clergy in southern Colson County, or to be precise, the extraordinary members of the church lost control one after another.

“An archbishop who was sent to solve this problem was actually contaminated. To this day, this archbishop still dares not leave the ‘source of life’.

"If I haven't caught up with you here, I won't go any further. We will send another missionary to contact you."

"Source of Life", like "Abyss of Storms" and "Deep Dark Heaven", is the headquarters of the Church of the Mother Earth. It was also the kingdom of the Mother Earth when the gods were still on land.

The power of this pollution was beyond Hobert's imagination. He didn't expect that a saint would be contaminated as well.

Simpson continued: "Soon some fish monsters appeared in Full Moon Lake, attacking merchant ships and cargo ships passing by, and all kinds of weird things happened to the ships passing through the center of Full Moon Lake during their subsequent journeys.

“For example, some crew members will express their love to the beer barrels or boxes containing cargo on the cargo ship, and hope to do something beyond friendship.

"For example, some crew members suddenly had ears of wheat growing on their heads, and the wounds continued to bleed after being cut."

Hobert's first thought was that this seemed to belong to the authority of the "Moon" and "Mother."

Bishop Simpson continued: "In short, these strange things have seriously affected shipping. The Feneport royal family has sent three groups of people to try to solve this problem. However, when they investigated the location of the center of Full Moon Lake, there were no exceptions. The ground is polluted.

“One of the ‘Law Masters’ was also contaminated and lost control, causing huge losses to the royal family.

"Later, Duke Oliver Latin of the royal family and our Pope decided to join forces to solve this matter, but they also failed!"

Hobert couldn't hide his surprise: "They all failed!"

The Pope must be an angel, and the Duke of the royal family is probably an angel like the Duke of Southwell of Loen Kingdom.

Neither of the two angels solved the matter.

"Yes." Simpson smiled bitterly again: "The result of the Pope's investigation into Full Moon Lake is: it is not difficult to solve, but it cannot be solved."

Hobert chewed on this sentence: "It's not difficult to solve" means that they can completely solve it, but why "can't solve it"?

"So we can only abandon the mountainous area of ​​Colson County." Bishop Simpson continued: "Both the church and the royal family have made a planned evacuation.

"Since then, the royal family ordered this convenient waterway to be blocked, and instead used the Yawei River in the west to transport goods and passengers from the port to the capital."

Hobert asked: "What about the residents here?"

Mr. Bishop replied: "Ordinary people will not be polluted by Full Moon Lake."

Hobert was stunned: "I read the Bible of Life from Bishop Utravsky. I remember that the Bible describes that all lives are equal, right?"

Bishop Simpson smiled and said: "Yes, this is the essence of the Bible of Life. It seems that you have read the Bible seriously."

Hobert thought to himself: I am not discussing academic issues with you.

Then he realized that for the church and the royal family, they had no legal responsibility or sense of guilt for leaving the believers and people here and evacuating.

Hobert finally figured it out: This is the "way to govern" in this world. The church and the royal family seem to think that we have tried our best, but the problem has not been solved, so we are sorry to leave. We have fulfilled our responsibilities. As for the impact of such a decision on the people, that is not within the scope of our responsibilities. You can definitely go with us, but if you don't go together, what can we do?

Hobert smiled. Although he had never experienced the pain of leaving his hometown, just thinking about it made Hobert feel confused and insecure. Especially in this era of living on one-third of an acre, how big a disaster would it be to leave one's hometown?

However, Hobert did not continue to discuss this issue with Bishop Simpson, but asked: "In other words, you will only send the bishop if the pollution of Full Moon Lake is solved?"

Bishop Simpson nodded: "Yes, but I don't have much hope for it.

"So I'm also bringing some intel on Colson County to show our good faith."

Hobert nodded: "Please tell me."

"Many of the gangster groups here are peripheral organizations of the Gnosis Society. It is said that the Gnosis Society has a large stronghold in the mountains." Simpson said:

"In addition, according to reliable information, there are traces of the Blood Worship Cult in the mountains, and they seem to be members of the Andrerad family.

“It is said that the Aurora Society also has a small stronghold here, but its power is not as powerful as the Gnosis Society and the Blood Worship Cult.

"There are currently four barons and one viscount still in their own fiefdoms in the mountains. They have various backgrounds. Some are the last symbol of the royal family's influence on this land, some are our partners, and some are said to be He has taken refuge in those secret organizations."

Hobert had the urge to cover his face: The situation in this mountainous area is too complicated! After the royal family and the church withdrew, this place completely became a place where filth and evil spread!

Simpson finally said: "But they are secret organizations. As long as you don't take the initiative to provoke them, they will not cause you trouble."

Hobert smiled: "I was not comforted."

He paused and then said: "I have my own messenger. If I have any questions I want to ask you, can I write to you?"

"Of course." Bishop Simpson left a mailbox address: "I will also use my messenger to reply to you."
