Chapter 1035, Arrival at Chelu
As the local bishop left, the room fell into a brief silence, with only the wind caused by the closing of the door blowing the light stone hanging by the rope.
The faint light stretched the shadows of the three people.
After this action, it will definitely anger the association, especially the contemporary Sword of Justice.
But the Holy See can no longer take care of so much.
Wu Heng's growth rate is still increasing rapidly. Lingqi Sect is established in various places, and Treasure Island has cultivated a second hero.
As for the scholars in Hongwen Society who are willing to record history, they will definitely write him into the historical records.
But this is not good news for the Vatican.
It also forced the Holy See to take action as soon as possible. Otherwise, the longer it delayed, the more difficult it would be to kill the opponent.
The black-robed man on the left finally spoke, his voice still serious and cold, "If Wu Heng doesn't come to participate in the Week of Courage..."
The figure in the middle stroked the teacup with his fingers. "The oracle will not make mistakes. He will definitely come, and he will show up at the venue on time."
The person on the right followed up and said, "We just need to act according to the oracle. As for whether there will be mistakes, that is not something we can consider."
The three of them looked at each other and said nothing more.
"Brittany is pregnant with his child." The person in the middle turned the topic to Brittany. "Now the whole kingdom is promoting that Wu Heng is a hero from the Yeke Kingdom, and they want to tie him to the kingdom..."
The person on the left said, "It doesn't matter. She must have signed a contract with Wu Heng. If Wu Heng dies, she won't be able to survive."
"How about arranging some unexpected events for his child? Saidu's reincarnation died at his hands." The middleman said in a deep voice.
"Don't touch that child. If Wu Heng notices it, it will only affect the subsequent plans." The person on the right continued to add, "Except for him, the rest are not important."
The other two nodded, feeling that it made sense.
Even the newly-cultivated heroes of Treasure Island are insignificant to the Holy See.
As long as Wu Heng is dead, nothing else matters.
After discussing the matter, the three of them sat together and reviewed the plan again.
Then he slowly stood up and left.
Everything is ready. No matter how powerful he is, as long as he dares to come and as long as he is still restricted by the heroes, he will definitely die this time.
The Holy See will also wash away all previous shame.
……
Three days later, they arrived at the woodland outside the royal capital.
Wu Heng sat on a huge rock covered with vines, fiddling with his cell phone.
As soon as I got off the ghost train and took out my phone, I was bombarded with a series of text messages from Lilith.
First, he said that he had picked up Liz and had already set off for Treasure Island.
Later, they asked him where he had been, whether he had discovered any actions of the Vatican, and to avoid any conflict.
Wu Heng thought about it for a while, and could only reply that he was invited to the Kingdom of Yeko, and he had no idea whether the Holy See had any conspiracy.
He added later that if a war really broke out, it would be the Vatican that was targeting him.
After editing, I sent it out directly.
Swish~!
At this time, Benny flew back from a distance, penetrating the mist in the forest. Her translucent spirit body was shining in the setting sun.
He found Wu Heng's location and quickly flew over. "Can you be in a more obvious place? It's so hard to find a cat here."
"I'm just afraid of being discovered by the enemy!" Wu Heng put away his phone and asked, "How is it?"
"There are no suspicious targets in the East District, and no level 20 heroes are seen." Benny replied.
As he was speaking, three more ghosts appeared in the air one after another.
The queen said, "The church is restricted and I cannot enter, but I haven't found anything unusual in the surrounding area."
Then, Glenda and Xiaoxiao also reported on their exploration of the location.
No trace of the hero was found, nor was anything unusual discovered.
After listening to the introduction, Wu Heng frowned slightly.
Glenda floated over to Penny and asked, "No signs on your side, either?"
"No, I checked carefully and found no trace of the hero," Benny replied.
Glenda nodded, thought for a moment, and analyzed, "There are two possibilities. One is that the other party is hiding in a well-hidden place, and there are many people in the city, so it is difficult for the four of us to find them in a short time. The second possibility is that they are not hiding in the city, and are trying to find out our whereabouts through some means."
The Queen continued, "The second possibility is more likely. You have been fighting the Holy See for such a long time, they must be familiar with some of your abilities and methods. How could they stay in the city and wait for you to find them?"
Xiao Xiao held her chin and nodded frequently, "It should be like this."
"Let's go into the city first!" Wu Heng stood up and patted the dust off his butt. "We'll talk about it after we see Brittany."
Having said that, he walked towards the city.
Xiao Xiao flew beside him and said, "The roads in the city are all lit up with street lights. Princess sister is really fast."
Glenda smiled and said, "Brittany, you have always used Treasure Island as a reference for your development goals. It is normal for you to build street lights as soon as you take the throne."
"I remember that it was very troublesome when we installed the street lights." Xiao Xiao recalled, "We had to publicize it in advance and have skeletons guard under the street lights."
Benny followed up, "Chellu is the capital after all. We were all pirates there at first. If we didn't steal something when we went out, we would be considered a lost place."
Xiao Xiao chuckled, "It seems so."
The four souls of the man walked and talked as they got closer and closer to the city.
He took out his phone and sent a message to Brittany.
……
The royal palace, the queen's bedroom.
The dusk shines through the window lattice, casting mottled shadows on the carpet.
Brittany leaned back on the couch, her fingertips stroking her slightly swollen belly.
"Your Majesty! Guess what I heard at the market today?" The maid stood by her side, picked up some fruit from the fruit plate, fed it to Brittany, and continued, "A group of prop rune masters came and stared at the street lights every night, trying to copy the runes on them. They have been staring at them for three or four days."
"How can someone with this intelligence become a rune master!" Brittany chuckled and continued, "Issue a notice sometime to remind them that looking directly at that kind of street light is harmful to the eyes."
"Why bother with them! You're saying it now, I thought we were afraid that they would learn it!" the little maid muttered.
The personal maid was the little maid who had fled with Brittany.
Now she has grown into a very noble lady. As the confidant who has always been by her side and the only one who knows all the secrets between her and Wu Heng, the status of the little maid is no longer comparable to that of an ordinary female official.
Ding dong~!
The cell phone on the crystal coffee table suddenly lit up.
Brittany glanced at it, and the maid immediately picked up the phone and handed it to her, "Here you go!"
Brittany looked at the contents, raised her eyebrows, and quickly replied to the message.
"Is it good news?" the little maid asked with a smile.
"Yeah!" Brittany answered, locking her phone. "Go tell the kitchen to prepare dinner. Make it something hearty."
"Okay, do you need me to help you walk in the yard?" the little maid continued.
"No, just let me know when dinner is ready," Brittany continued, "Remember to knock on the door."
"Oh!" The maid bowed. "Then I'll go get ready."
After saying that, he left the room.
The door closed, and Brittany picked up her phone and sent out an edited message.
Two or three seconds later, a light flashed in the center of the bedroom, and Wu Heng's figure appeared out of thin air.
Wu Heng sent the message in advance because he had the experience of scaring Li Yahong last time, so he didn't want to come over rashly and scare Brittany who was pregnant.
"Your Excellency!" Brittany looked surprised and stood up to salute.
"You're pregnant, no need to be so polite." Wu Heng sat on the edge of the bed and looked at her carefully.
Her long golden hair is adorned with jeweled hair accessories, and her round face has lost some of her girlish innocence while adding a touch of maternal tenderness.
Only those emerald eyes still show the admiration I felt when we first met.
"Where are Sister Shannella and Philippa? Didn't they say they would come together?" Brittany asked curiously when she saw that he was alone.
Wu Heng put his arm around her shoulders and whispered, "I didn't bring them here."
Seeing his seriousness, Brittany frowned, "Did something happen?"
"Someone wants to take advantage of my participation in the Week of Courage to attack me." Wu Heng tightened his grip around her shoulders.
"What?" Brittany's pupils shrank suddenly, and she said anxiously, "Impossible, I haven't told anyone, no one knows you will come."
"Don't worry!" Wu Heng signaled her not to shout, and then said, "It's not your problem. The other party may have predicted, or used a method we don't understand, to know that I would come to participate in this event."
Brittany grabbed his collar and said, "Then you can still come. It doesn't matter if you cancel this time."
"It's a trap, so I came here." Wu Heng interrupted her, "In two days' time, during the Week of Courage, you arrange the celebration as planned. I will find the enemy and eliminate them."
Brittany bit her lower lip and finally nodded.
As the two were talking, Xiao Xiao flew in and appeared in mid-air, "Hello, Princess Sister!"
"Xiaoxiao!" Brittany's attention was diverted and she also smiled.
Xiao Xiao flew closer and pointed at her belly, "Sister, is that a brother or a sister inside?"
"It's hard to tell now... Which one do you like?" Brittany asked with a smile.
"I can do anything!" Xiao Xiao tilted her head, "I'll help you take care of the children in the future!"
Brittany glanced at Wu Heng and said, "Okay, I'll just watch Xiao Xiao from now on."
"Yeah! I can also give a name." Xiaoxiao continued to promote herself.
I tried hard to think about how I could help in this matter.
The other three ghosts remained invisible, floating in other places in the room, silently listening to the conversation here.
It’s not that I don’t care, I’m just used to silence.
dong dong.
There was a gentle knock on the door.
The maid's voice came through the door, "Dinner is ready!"
Brittany and Wu Heng looked at each other and said softly, "Send it in. I'll eat in the bedroom tonight."
"Eh? Don't you need me to accompany you?" asked the little maid.
"I'll call you later."
"Oh!" the little maid answered, then turned and left.
A moment later, the servants came in with plates of food, and a feast was set out on the round table in the outer hall.
Wu Heng walked out of the room only after the servants left.
The soundproof kettle was placed in the middle, and Brittany and I ate and chatted.
……
After the tableware was cleared away, the moonlight had already climbed up the window frame.
Wu Heng assigned patrol tasks to the ghosts and distributed books and tablets.
We can't check the city in just one night.
If you have nothing to do, you should still do what you are interested in.
The ghosts dispersed, and Xiaoxiao said "Good night, Princess" and flew away.
……
When Wu Heng finished washing up and returned to the bed, Brittany had already changed into a silver silk nightgown.
Her golden hair flowed on the crimson embroidered pillow, making her bare shoulders and neck look as smooth as porcelain.
Wu Heng climbed onto the bed from the side, and Brittany immediately snuggled into his arms, with a faint floral scent in her hair.
"Be careful." Wu Heng protected her slightly bulging belly.
Brittany chuckled and poked his tense muscles with her fingertips, "You're not that fragile."
The collar of her nightgown slid down as she moved, revealing a section of her snow-white collarbone.
The two of them snuggled together and chatted about the latest news on Treasure Island. When the topic turned to Wen Mantha, Brittany's ears suddenly turned red.
After hesitating for a moment, she suddenly broke free from the embrace, knelt up, and lightly hooked her silk nightgown with her slender fingers, and it slipped off her shoulders like water.
"What's wrong?" Before Wu Heng could finish his words, Brittany leaned over and kissed his abdomen with warm lips.
Wu Heng stroked the top of her head with his palm, "Don't force it."
"Sister Wen Mansha said..." Brittany raised her head, her eyes full of water, "This is how she helped you when she was pregnant."
Wu Heng raised his eyebrows, "Do you two talk about this in private?"
"No, no!" Brittany's face instantly turned red, and she pursed her lips stubbornly, "I just mentioned it by chance... woo..."
Wu Heng's hand slid down her spine and into her long golden hair, pressing down gently.
Brittany's big eyes looked over between the falling hair, with a hint of resentment and a bit of shyness.
Then look away.
The moonlight shines through the gauze curtain, and the two enjoy the joy after a short separation.
……
The next day, early morning.
Brittany left early because she still needed to listen to the ministers' reports on the kingdom's affairs.
The two also agreed that she would arrange the matters of the Week of Courage as normal, and Wu Heng would take care of the rest.
Wu Heng sat in the bedroom, with ghosts floating around him.
Granda said: "We found several servants in the palace. They should be spies sent in. We are not sure whether they are from the Vatican or sent in by some other forces."
"Remember these people first, don't touch them for now." Wu Heng said.
As expected, there were some spies inside the palace.
Glenda nodded.
Beni said, "The church of the Holy See is still inaccessible, and the priests inside rarely come in and out. I feel like there shouldn't be any heroes."
Xiao Xiao said, "My aunt and I checked the bars and hotels in the city, and there were no suspicious people."
The empress followed up by saying, “The danger may not be in the city.”
Wu Heng frowned, the tortoise shell and the information didn't match each other.
The tortoise shell shows that there will be problems during the Week of Courage, and no one or anything that can threaten him is found in the city.
Although the results of divination using tortoise shells are vague, they have never been wrong so far.
"It seems that they are more likely to be hiding outside." Wu Heng continued, "It's better if they are not in the city. Let's prepare in advance."
The four ghosts nodded.
After chatting for a few more sentences, Wu Heng stood up and said, "Let's go to the zombie world. It's been a while since we've been there."
The ghost returned to the body, and Wu Heng opened the door and walked in.
……
Zombie world, prison monitoring room.
In the dim room, dozens of surveillance screens flashed cold light.
The ghosts possessed the dolls, each holding a mobile phone, and gathered together to browse the forum.
Wu Heng glanced at the surveillance footage, picked up the phone and dialed Li Yahong's number.
"Hello?" Li Yahong's voice and the sound of a car came from the other end of the phone.
"What about the missionary priests?" Wu Heng went straight to the point.
"Everything went smoothly." Li Yahong's tone was somewhat proud. "According to your arrangement, we used the Korean base as a transit point and have sent the first batch of priests to various bases for missionary work. The feedback is better than expected."
Wu Heng narrowed his eyes slightly, "Did you encounter any resistance?"
While asking this, he opened the panel to check the faith value.
【Faith: 11724/50000.】
Wu Heng's eyes suddenly focused.
Over 10,000!
I rely on!
