Tribulation of Mysteries

Chapter 40:

Blackstone Ridge, a particular house.

A large number of guards surrounded the place. Knight Iman, wearing armour, rushed in and kicked down the door.

Pa!

“Ah… Sir!”

A woman beside the soup pot dropped the spoon in her hand in fright. A farmer beside her knelt on the floor. “Sir you- you…”

Some children cried.

“There’s no one back there!”

Eight Fingers also entered. Looking at this scene, a puzzled expression appeared on his face. “Could it be… the information is wrong?!”

This looked like an ordinary house. No matter how he looked at it, it could not be related to the mastermind behind this.

Knight Iman’s expression was cold. Suddenly, he stepped forward, scooped up a spoonful of soup, and put it in his mouth. After tasting it, a smile appeared on his face. “There is salt and meat in the soup since when can ordinary farmers eat so well? Or have you prepared this for others? Search! ”

The farmer’s face turned ashen. Then a group of soldiers burst in and smashed everything.

“There’s a cellar!”

Eight Fingers searched every inch of the ground. Suddenly, he pulled up an iron ring and shouted.

After lifting the cover, a passage leading down was revealed.

Knight Iman’s expression was cold as he entered first.

“This is really a desperate attempt to clear grievances.”

Eight Fingers shook his head and followed.

Not long after, the sound of weapons clashing could be heard from the basement. There were also a few screams.

A man with blood on his face was dragged out by Eight Fingers like a dead dog. “Soft skin and tender flesh, he must be a noble! Knight Iman, do you know him? ”

“Jon Davis!”

Knight Iman nodded. “A branch of the Davis family, the missing person from the War.”

“Then the case is solved.”

A smile appeared on Eight Fingers face.

…

The next day.

Aaron ate breakfast as he listened to Albert’s report.

A gentleman would not stand under a crumbling wall. As a lord, he had subordinates. Why should he risk his life?.

Besides, there was still Knight Iman to help him.

All he had to do was stay in the safety of the manor and wait for the results.

“After the interrogation, Jon also told us about a hidden organisation plotting against us and a list of names.”

Albert handed Aaron a list of names.

Aaron took a sip of the broth and looked at it casually. “As expected, they are the remnants of the Davis family, But they are getting weaker and weaker, So it doesn’t matter.”

“About the follow-up of this matter.” Albert asked hesitantly.

“Let Knight Iman execute Jon himself, then write a report on what happened and send a copy to Sotos Castle. That’s all.”

Aaron waved his hand.

The aftermath of this incident would soon be over.

There was another hidden benefit. Having been involved in such an important matter, Knight Iman was in a terrible fix. He quickly returned to his domain and was in no mood to talk about marriage.

…

In the dream world.

The former department store was now a branch of the Order of Light of Salvation.

Olivia, Lin and some ordinary people were praying.

“Praise the Lord!”

“You are an illusory spirit that wanders through the unknown, an absolute neutral existence, a silent observer.”

“You are the symbol of free will, the only saviour of the apocalypse, the supreme light.”

“Please listen to the prayers of your faithful, please lower your merciful gaze.”

…

“The symbol of free will? When did I get another authority? Don’t make things up.”

Aaron looked at this scene and his eyelids twitched. He immediately made the connection.

“My Lord!”

Lin’s body shook and a look of awe appeared on her face.

Olivia’s body trembled continuously.

After truly coming into contact with this great being, she could fully sense that it was an existence on par with the [Cocoon].

This kind of terrifying existence that humans could not perceive or describe!

Moreover, he did not erode her rationality. Instead, He was as warm as the sun in winter!

At first, she had a little doubt and confusion, but it immediately disappeared without a trace.

“There are so many people already?”

Aaron looked at Lin’s order and saw that there were already more than twenty people. Of course, there were still only two Beyonders.

Therefore, only these two people could sense his existence after the mysterious connection was formed.

As for the other mortals, they could only look on in confusion or pray even more devoutly.

He quietly listened to Lin’s report, acknowledged her contribution to the development of the Order and agreed to the request to build another permanent altar here. Then he ended the call.

“The Lord has averted His gaze.”

Lin stood up and proclaimed loudly, “But He is watching us, watching everyone! He has confirmed our devotion and allowed us to build a second altar to worship Him.”

The ordinary members of the Light of Salvation cheered. Olivia also had a smile on her face.

Then, as the ordinary members began to gather materials to build the altar, the two higher-ups of the Light of Salvation gathered together.

“Can you feel it? That is our merciful Lord.”

Lin said quietly.

“How merciful, how forgiving .” Olivia wiped the corners of her eyes. “I can’t wait to get close to the Lord.”

Compared to existences like the Black Sun and the Cocoon, this one was indeed kind and gentle enough to have goodwill towards humans. This was too rare!

Lin’s small face frowned slightly. “It’s a pity that we still haven’t received the Lord’s approval to grant us a path.”

“As long as we persevere in faith and sacrifice, the Lord will give us everything one day,” Olivia said firmly.

“You are wrong. I won’t give you a path because I really don’t have one7.”

Aaron watched from the side, the corner of his mouth twitching.

However, he was also very curious as to which path the mysterious energy produced by his dream could be attributed to.

“Speaking of which, the effects of using the mysterious energy to strengthen my consciousness are getting weaker and weaker. The benefits can’t be compared to protecting my believers and then making them sacrifice their spirituality to me. Spirituality originally came from the mysterious energy, from me. So why after the sacrifice can it break the bonds of the dream world and be sent into reality?”

Aaron had doubts in his heart, but he also knew that this was not a question he could understand at the moment.

“Speaking of which, if I can find a way to use the mysterious energy in reality, even if it costs a lot, it’s okay…”

At that moment, a member of the church ran over in panic, shouting, “Saintess…. Something has happened!”

Aaron followed Lin and Olivia into another room and saw a wounded person lying on the floor.

There was a layer of pitch-black, sticky flames on the person’s arm, which was still burning, but the strange thing was that the temperature was not too high. Instead, it makes people feel cold.

The burnt believer was unconscious and his life force had dropped to an extremely low level.

“Barnard, what’s going on?”

Olivia looked at the informant.

“We were ordered to go out and look for supplies and survivors, and then we came across a group of people. They were wearing black priest robes and had burn scars on their bodies. They wanted to take us into their church, but of course we refused. Just like that, a conflict broke out.”

Barnard said in shame.

He had been a soldier and had been well trained. He was also one of the best ordinary people in the Light of Salvation.

Combined with firearms, he could even fight monsters. However, at that moment, his forehead was dripping with cold sweat. He was obviously scared to death.

“It’s the Black Sun Church. Their influence has spread here.”

Lin gritted her teeth and said.
