Secret: The undead do not die in the fire

Chapter 16 Sorry, if you have connections you can do whatever you want
The Church of Night has thirteen archbishops and nine high-ranking deacons.

These twenty-two gentlemen and ladies are the high-ranking officials of the church in the usual sense, and it is said that there are many high-sequence strongmen among them.

Although there is a slight difference in strength, they are completely equal in terms of status.

Only follow the oracles of the goddess of night and be responsible only to the Pope.

The senior deacon Creste Cesima who came this time was a powerful Sequence Five.

All of the above information was told to Klein by Dunn.

And in fact, it was less than ten minutes after Dunn said all this.

A man in his thirties, wearing a black windbreaker and a white shirt, entered the room.

His golden brown hair was cut short, and his dark green eyes were like a moonless lake in the middle of the night. The collars of his shirt and windbreaker were turned up high, hiding his entire chin in the shadows.

"Your Excellency Sesima."

Before anyone else could react, Dunn immediately saluted.

"Ah."

Krestel Cecima nodded slightly, sat leisurely on one of the chairs, crossed his right leg over his left leg, and said with a smile, "It seems that you all know how to act?"

"Yes, Master Cecima."

Dunn's expression changed slightly, and he took two steps forward to explain.

"It's ok."

Creste Sesima waved his hand and said leisurely, "I understand your desire to help your colleagues, and leaking secrets before swearing an oath to the goddess is not considered a leak. But I'll still confirm it."

After a pause, Creste Sesima glanced at everyone and said, "Those who know how to act should be here, right?"

"And Team El."

"They're guarding the Chanis Gate now," Dunn explained.

"I see."

Krestel Cecima nodded slightly.

Then he bent down, picked up the silver-white box at his feet and placed it on his knees.

He raised his right hand and pressed down. Suddenly, something on the surface of the silver-white box that looked like a violin case shattered and disintegrated, then receded like the tide.

Almost at the same second, Klein felt that all the surrounding light was drawn over and into the box.

Then he saw that the room was pitch black, except for the box that was emitting silvery light. The scene was extremely strange.

And in the box.

It is a pure bone sword.

Its surface appears pure and flawless, but if you look closely, you will find that the depths are densely covered with layers of symbols and logos, and these mysterious patterns form an inseparable whole with the sword body.

Klein looked at the holy sword and suddenly found that he couldn't take his eyes off it.

His sight was sucked in, and his brown eyes slowly lost their luster.

"Dunn."

Krestai moved the pure bone sword and said, "Put your hand on it."

The others were instantly awakened, and looked at the pure bone sword with a bit of awe and fear in their eyes.

But soon.

Dunn stepped forward and placed his hand on the holy sword.

"Read after me."

Krestai said in a deep voice.

“The goddess of night, nobler than the stars and older than eternity;”

"I swear to you by my true name and my spirituality."

"From now on, I, Dunn Smith, will never reveal the relevant details to anyone who does not know how to act."

"If there is any violation, I will let you punish me."

"Please bear witness to my oath."

Dunn followed Senior Deacon Cecima and solemnly recited the oath in Hermetic.

He then retracted his right hand, drew a crimson moon on his chest, and whispered:
"Praise the goddess."

"Praise the goddess."

Krestey smiled and saluted.

then.

Klein, Leonard, and the others repeated their previous actions one by one and swore an oath to the goddess.

After doing all this, Cresta closed the lid with a snap and pressed it down heavily and slowly with his right hand.

The darkness was suddenly illuminated, and the light of the gas lamp filled the room again.

Klein saw that Senior Deacon Cecima's eyes, which had been dyed dark black, turned dark green at the same moment.

"Go call Team El over."

Krestai said slowly, "You will temporarily take their place to guard the Chanis Gate."

"Yes, Master Cecima."

Dunn bowed slightly, glanced at the others, and led them out of the room. "Klein, Leonard."

Dunn walked out of the room and immediately ordered, "You guys follow me, the others go back."

Klein nodded, and the group quickly went their separate ways.

Frye and his team returned to their jobs, while Klein followed Dunn to Chanis Gate to replace Team Al.

Soon, the three members of Team El also swore an oath to the goddess under the witness of the pure bone sword.

Eventually only embers remained.

"You guys go out first."

Krestey closed the box again, looked at Al and the others and gave instructions.

"Your Excellency Sesima."

Al's heart tightened, thinking that Cecima was going to punish Youjin for first leaking the acting method.

"rest assured."

Krestel smiled slightly, "That's not a bad thing."

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Al lowered his head and silently led the other two out of the room.

Creste was a senior deacon, so there was no reason for him to lie to a low-level Sequence 7 Beyonder.

"So."

After the others left, Krestai immediately put on a serious expression, "Sir, I think I have an obligation to inform you that the existence of the Acting Method must be kept strictly confidential and cannot be disclosed at will."

"I know."

Yu Jin nodded slightly and asked, "Then should I take the oath now?"

"No, no need."

Creste had a strange expression on his face. "Goddess Oracle, I just need to remind you not to spread the Acting Method to others at will. You don't need to swear an oath. But if you want to teach others the Acting Method in the future, remember to tell the church."

"it is good."

Yu Jin seemed a little surprised, and after a moment's silence, he nodded slightly.

"That's fine."

Krestel nodded and continued, "One more thing. We need to escort the seal back to Backlund immediately. Will you come with us or stay in Tingen for the time being?"

"Let's go together."

Yu Jin thought for a moment and said slowly.

After all, Backlund is the capital of the Kingdom of Loen.

According to his past experience, the Black Emperor is most likely in the capital.

And his intuition told him that there was no point in staying in Tingen.

"it is good."

Krestai nodded, stood up and walked towards the door. At the end, he turned back and said, "Both seals are in your custody. Be careful to isolate them from their influence."

Ember did not object.

Because for him, isolating the influence of these "sealed objects" is actually very simple -

Just throw it into the soul space.

And in fact.

Yu Jin did exactly that after he obtained '2-049' and the Antigonus family notes from behind the Chanis Gate.

Although this made Al and the others look extremely horrified, fortunately on the return trip, they no longer needed to book an entire carriage for fear of the impact of the seal.

Instead, he could pretend to be an ordinary person and return to Backlund with the other passengers.

After all, it is actually quite expensive to rent a section of the carriage.

It only takes about four hours to travel from Tingen to Backlund by steam train.

So the tickets are not expensive relatively speaking.

The fare for a first-class luxury seat is three-quarters of a pound, or 15 soli, and the fare for a second-class seat is 10 soli, or half a pound.

The very crowded and poorly furnished third class seats were quite cheap, costing only 5 soli.

But even so, even to book the cheapest third-class carriage, it would cost nearly six hundred soli, a full thirty pounds!

This is equivalent to two and a half months' salary for Klein.

If I try harder and triple it, it would be equivalent to Yu Jin's weekly salary when rounded up!

Although Yu Jin still does not have a clear concept of these currencies, after all, his thinking is still stuck on shopping with souls.

However, the money saved was not saved for the church, but was divided equally among their team.

After all, these field trip expenses can be reimbursed!
You can choose not to spend, but you must get reimbursed. If you don’t reimburse, it will be a waste!

"If I had known this."

On the steam train, Al Hassan said with some regret, "We could have saved the money to come to Tingen."

Lolota rolled her eyes and turned her head away, ignoring him.
