Jia Long decided to put everything off until tomorrow.

However, plans change quickly, and that very afternoon, Pope Shion summoned Jaron ahead of schedule.

Jalon, dressed in his golden armor, stepped into the Papal Palace.

"Garonne the Dark Star of Gemini pays his respects to His Holiness the Pope!"

"Humph!"

This time, Shion's attitude was completely different from before. Not only did he not let Jia Long get up, but he also stared at him with cold eyes.

"Galon, you have disappointed me! You have also tarnished your Gold Cloth!"

Shion spoke in his usual style, omitting any mention of credit and immediately launching into a barrage of questions at Jia Long.

"I heard you're living a very comfortable life in the Yama Kingdom, eating and drinking to your heart's content every day?"

"I heard you've also taken to watching football games?"

"I heard you even got Mitsumasa Kido to fund the construction of some kind of twin orphanage for you?"

"Garon, do you even resemble a Gold Saint anymore?"

Shion's tone was filled with disappointment as he said in a deep voice:

"The sole purpose of a Gold Saint's existence is to fight for justice, to fight, fight, fight to the death—that is your glory and destiny! And what about you?"

"In the words of the Church of the Goddess, you've practically become the supreme ruler of the Yama Kingdom!"

"so……"

Shion did not give Jia Long a chance to defend himself and directly announced the result of his punishment.

"Gigas has gone to the Kingdom of Yama, and the Church of the Goddess will take over your twin kindergarten."

"Saga has recovered thanks to Nacharsis's treatment. From now on, you must hand over the Gemini Gold Cloth and are forbidden from ever entering the Gemini Palace again!"

"Furthermore, the goddess is about to be reincarnated. I have already summoned Aiolos and Saga. Tomorrow I will announce to the entire Sanctuary that Aiolos, who is well-versed in doctrine and a staunch supporter of the goddess, will be my successor, and Saga will be responsible for assisting him..."

"And you... Galon, I've decided to let you inherit Giluti's cause, to atone for your crimes by going undercover in the Sea Realm, to ensure that when the goddess awakens more than ten years later, we can successfully defeat this great enemy!"

"This is my decision, Galon. Do you have anything else to say?"

Chapter 104 The Choice! Shion Must Die

"What the hell are you talking about?!"

At this moment, Jia Long really wanted to utter those words to Shion's face, but after letting out a long sigh, he calmly stood up and bowed to Shion:

"Your subordinate will follow His Holiness the Pope's arrangements in all matters. I will now return to prepare for my mission to infiltrate the Sea Realm."

After saying that, Jia Long took off his golden armor and strode away without looking back.

Pope Shion didn't even give him a chance to defend himself, which shows that there's no room for maneuver.

Perhaps, starting with this mission, Shion was waiting for him to make a mistake so that he could legitimately send him to infiltrate the Sea Realm.

After all, he had mentioned the Sea Realm to Jia Long more than once.

Jia Long did not mention Amphitrite again.

Under such circumstances, how could Shion possibly give him the "Scroll of the Gods"?

If he really wanted to give it to him, he would have made everything clear to him when he mentioned the Dark Star Cloth earlier.

In hindsight, it was just a pie in the sky that was promised to him!

Ultimately, the person Shion truly trusted was never him, the Dark Star of the Gemini.

But thinking about these things now is pointless.

Since Shion has made his decision...

Then Jia Long also had to make a choice!

……

In the hospital room on Kanon Island, Jalon met Saga.

To Jia Long's surprise, Saga did not appear to be a mental patient at this time. On the contrary, he was in a very good mental state. However, his long hair, which was half black and half blue, had become completely black.

"Seeing you all like this puts my mind at ease. By the way, you must be the son of God now, right?"

"Garon, who I am now doesn't matter. In short, I'm fine now."

"So, you've reached an agreement?"

"Yes."

Hei Sa nodded slightly and said:

"Garon, the Pope has summoned me. I will succeed you as the Gemini Gold Saint and will head to the southern front in Mesopotamia tomorrow to suppress evil."

"So this is the assistant the Pope was talking about... By the way, he also told me to go undercover in the Sea Realm immediately!"

"Really? It seems he really doesn't trust us Geminis!"

Blackie stared unabashedly at Jia Long:

"Kannon, Athena's reincarnation is imminent. With Shion's support, all the Saints will become servants of the gods. Therefore, my partner and I want to do something big. Do you support us?"

"I don't support you..."

Without even asking, Jia Long flatly refused. Just as Hei Sa's gaze turned cold, Jia Long suddenly changed the subject:

"But I absolutely support Saga!"

After a brief conversation, Jia Long got the answer he wanted. He didn't stay with Hei Sa for long and quickly left Canon Island, returning to his little stone house, where he pretended to be reflecting on his mistakes behind closed doors.

Jia Long knew very well what Hei Sa wanted to do.

Even if Hei Sa didn't do it, Jia Long would have done it anyway.

Now that Hei Sa wants to do it, Jia Long will naturally cooperate fully.

In short, Shion must die!

……

That night.

Seeing that Pandora was sleeping soundly, Jia Long got up and walked out of the stone house.

The night is dark and windy.

Jia Long arrived at the place he had agreed upon with Hei Sa, who was already waiting there. Hei Sa was wearing a dark cloak, and his black hair was flying, making him look like a demon god descending to earth.

"Karon, Shion has entered the Astrological Hill. Athena is about to descend. He observes the stars there every night to predict her exact arrival in the world. This is my best chance to make my move."

"Do you need me to help you? Also, I secretly left some obsession on the Gemini Cloths, if needed..."

"Garon, do you think I can't kill a frail old man like Shion?"

Blackie coldly cut him off, his eyes shining like demonic stars, revealing immense confidence.

Seeing this, Jia Long said no more.

He knew Black Sa's strength very well. Even a half-awakened mirror image was enough for him to fight to the death, let alone Black Sa in his current peak state.

"Walk."

The two headed straight for the astrological mound.

They made no attempt to conceal themselves; at their speed, no one in the Holy Land could detect them now.

Even if you find out, it's no use. If the Geminis team up, anyone who touches them will die!

For example, the golden sheep in the primeval forest is very alert. When it sees two streaks of light flashing across the sky, it immediately gets a jolt and opens its mouth to bleat.

Before it could even speak, Jia Long pounced like lightning, grabbed its neck with a snap, and then threw it into the space without even looking back.

"You stupid sheep, I've wanted to stew you for a long time!"

Just as Jalong was dealing with the golden-haired sheep, Saga had already rushed into the Astrological Hill without looking back.

The two have a clear division of labor.

Black Saga was responsible for dealing with Shion, while Jalon was responsible for preventing anyone from getting close to the Astrological Mound.

However, Jia Long had another purpose in coming to the astrological mound.

After Black Sa rushed in, he left his obsessive clone outside the door and followed him into the astrological mound.

Jialong's goal is the "Scroll of the Gods" and the treasures of the Sanctuary.

Opportunities are rare nowadays.

Jia Long had to seize the opportunity to make his money, even if he failed to kill Shion, he would still be able to escape to the Sea Realm without losing anything.

"who……"

"what!"

The Astrological Mound is guarded by personnel who are all Shion's direct subordinates, usually led by the Bronze Saint of Sextans.

Blackie showed no mercy to these people, killing them one by one.

Jia Long showed no mercy. Even though he wasn't a bloodthirsty person, one should never be too soft-hearted when doing great things, especially when it comes to treason. If it's not done cleanly and decisively, the consequences will be endless.

Inside the astrological mound, Jia Long's figure moved swiftly.

He cleared one layer and moved another. Due to the time constraints, he didn't examine everything closely. Anything that caught his eye in the astrological mound was sent into the other dimension.

For example, the "Scroll of the Gods" filled an entire bookshelf.

For example, the Blade of Krysos that he longed for.

For example, some prohibited items...

Especially in a secret chamber near the observatory, Jia Long discovered a crystal coffin covered with seals, emanating a terrifying aura of death that sent chills down one's spine with just a glance.

Jia Long would naturally not let go of something so terrifying.

Regardless of whether it's a seal on two gods.

"Boom~"
