Overturned Tower

In fact, from Hua Mingshu's perspective, his plan was also executed very successfully.

Because after he became anonymous, the church did not send any pursuers to hunt him down or to arrest him, and they did not even take back his angel halo. It just locked his permission to log into the angel system, and then seemed to have forgotten him.

Before today, Russell thought it was because the old pigeon was too small.

After all, he is just a "healer", the lowest subordinate angel. Maybe the church has a casual attitude of "just throw it away" and is too lazy to pursue this matter - but, from this point of view, there should be such defecting angels in other places. Quite a few.

But now when I look back and think about it... maybe Hua Mingshu is the special one.

After all, Russell has been exposed to so many empty islands and so many secrets, but he has indeed not seen the second defecting angel. Hua Mingshu has never come into contact with his own kind.

And the fact that Paradise Bird was so easily accepted by the church and granted the title of bishop on the first day was really just because she had awakened the ability of a "saint" and was able to use the power of the angelic holy order without relying on a halo. ?

Will the church that sells "angel products" to mages and elves become so pious and humble towards saints?

There are only seven angels in total on Happy Island, and two of them are always with Paradise Bird... and they happen to be the most powerful in combat, and the one with the strongest protective ability.

That was more like protection than surveillance. If it was surveillance, there was no reason for them to trade Paradise Bird to the Special Enforcement Department and let her run around. The church has many positions that can be assigned to her, and she can be easily placed under house arrest.

When Russell thought of this, he probably understood.

The reason why the church did not pursue Hua Mingshu was not because Hua Mingshu's anonymity was really useful... but because someone took care of everything for him and paid the corresponding price for him.

That person is probably the Bishop.

He directly told Russell Hua Mingshu's name, not his code name. A hundred years have passed since Hua Mingshu left the Cyber ​​Church. He could still blurt out the other person's name clearly; across an empty island, the bishop knew that it was Russell who saved the bird of paradise...

If it weren't for the name of Paradise Bird, which has spread throughout the seven islands... it can only mean that he has always been secretly paying attention to Hua Mingshu and his descendants.

So Russell also became curious - who is the Bishop?

At this moment, Delphinium quietly touched Russell's arm and asked Russell to take a closer look at the message she sent.

"——How should I call the Bishop? Just call him the Bishop directly. Wouldn't it be too alienating?"

"……I have no idea."

Russell hesitated for a moment and gave the designated high-quality answer.

Looking at Delphinium's angry cheeks, Russell stretched out his hand to deflate it and shook his head helplessly.

"I really do not know."

He covered his mouth with his hand and whispered in Delphinium's ear: "People call him Bishop, and my mother calls him the same... Everyone respects him, and no one knows what the Bishop is called. Bishop can come. He is a 'statistician', he is a big shot on the same level as our 'Godfather' and 'Dr. Zanbai' here."

Russell didn't even know what level of bishop the "Lord Bishop" was. Rather, for the Lord Bishop, the title "Mr. Bishop" itself has become the same code name as "Godfather" for people to call him.

"——Are you discussing my name?"

At this moment, the old man suddenly stopped and looked back slightly.

Russell and Delphinium were immediately frightened. Although one of them is a ninth-level psyker, the other is on the edge of the ninth level, and they are both minister-level figures in the head office... But just by being glanced at by the old man, you can still feel a feeling as if a primary school student is being The head teacher gave me a look of majesty and terror.

"...Yes, I am indeed a little curious."

Russell reached out and pushed Delphinium back, signaling her to stay away and not speak.

After all, his identity and knowledge are different now, so Russell boldly asked: "Can I know... your name and identity?"

"Nothing is wrong."

The old man stepped forward again and said calmly: "There is nothing shameful about this kind of thing. There is no need to hide in the dark and discuss it secretly. If you ask, I will answer."

He paused slightly and continued to answer: "If you ask about my position, someone has called me 'general' before; if you ask me about my relationship with Hua Mingshu, he has called me sir and mentor before.

"Although he and I are both spiritual relatives of the Dove family, we actually have no blood relationship. It's just because our spiritual relatives are the same, so we pay a little attention to him on weekdays. If you ask me, I used to use If what the code name was... I'm afraid you will be disappointed.

"That's a very simple name. There's nothing eye-catching about it, and it's not gorgeous or individual enough. They called me 'White Feather'."

The old man said calmly: "Of course, Wendy and I have no blood relationship. When I gave him the codename 'Bishop', I actually wanted to retire... But now it seems that he still wants me to do more work." day."

"General..."

Russell chewed the unfamiliar word slowly.

He realized that he might even have underestimated the Bishop's age. He is much more than one hundred and twenty years old...perhaps he was already an old man a hundred years ago.

Russell suddenly realized something: "You...are not an angel?"

"I'm human."

The old man replied flatly: "Purely human."

However, this answer seems somewhat ambiguous to Russell. He did not give a clear answer as to whether he was a former angel... or whether he and the church did not intend to treat angels as purely human beings.

Russell still wanted to ask, but their destination had already been reached.

Not all churches look after cemeteries. On Sogo Island, caring for the cemetery is a very sacred job. Of course, it will not be built on flat ground... but is as gorgeous as other buildings on Sogo Island.

Delphinium suddenly opened her eyes wide.

Surrounded by chants, she finally saw what the "cemetery" on Sogo Island looked like.

In the center of the room is a jade sculpture of a female angel without a face.

She opened her arms wide, like a mother. There are three pairs of soft-looking white wings behind her - but the wings and her body are all carved from pure white jade.

She is also surrounded by three golden rings that rotate at different angles and speeds. Under the extremely bright light above its head, it would flash a bright light at an extremely coincidental angle from time to time.

The environment filled with rich woody incense is reminiscent of an ancient library.

In addition to the direction of entering the door, there are seven different directions. There are a large number of "bookshelfs" in every direction, and each bookshelf is filled with jars of different sizes, styles, and ornateness. All the jars are covered with a glass cover, and a dynamic 'album' appears on the jar, which contains constantly changing color photos.

"Looking for 'Alice'."

The Lord Bishop spoke in front of the angel stone statue.

The angel stone statue emits a sacred sonorous sound of several different female voices overlapping together: "A total of 12 results found."

"The one who died last year."

"Positioned: Xun is No. 3, Side A, No. 2, Row 1."

As the chorus of angels sounded, Delphinium squinted its eyes and keenly saw a place not far away shining with light.

They didn't go very far.

The third "bookshelf", on the far left of the second row from top to bottom, is Alice's position.

Her "moving photos" are shining brightly to guide the way. When Russell came over, it scanned Russell's face and automatically opened the glass cover. The light also stopped.

"Do you need me to leave for a while?"

The old man asked with concern.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Russell did not say a few words of false modesty, but simply responded.

"If you don't know how to get out, just ask the guiding angel."

The Lord Bishop nodded and said calmly: "There are still things to do later - I will wait for you outside the door."

Catch up!
