Mystery: Starting with the Night Pope.

Chapter 450 The War That Started Ahead of Schedule

Klein recalled the scene when he became a "trickster," when the cloak almost entered his body.

If the cloak had been successfully made, he might have become the "Mysterious Servant".

"Truman probably already knew..." Klein took a long time to come to his senses.

"It's best not to touch the 'Miracleist' trait here," Klein decided.

Not to mention that there are only three "Mysterious Servant" slots available, and there may not be any other options, the number of "Miracle Workers" is relatively large, so it is worth trying to obtain them from outside sources.

Klein understood the true nature of the cloak, which felt like the second shoe had finally dropped, since the unknown is the most terrifying thing.

……

Just as Klein was staying in the Southern Continent, Fusak of the Northern Continent brazenly declared war on Rune, directly starting the long-suppressed "Holy War"!

Without any warning, they completely stunned Rune.

The Augustus family convened a council of nobles overnight, and George III, in the name of the king, declared a state of war in Rune.

But that wasn’t the worst news, because at almost the same time, Feneport also declared war on Rune!

Rune was dragged into the abyss of war by the two great kingdoms.

"How is this possible?!" George III was furious and slammed his fist on the table in the council of nobles.

"It's true. Both countries have declared war on us simultaneously, and their armies are already approaching the border of Ruen." The Prime Minister's expression was extremely grim.

"I've received some information," General Emilius of the military raised his hand, drawing all eyes to him.

"The Church of the Night seems to have made a move against the Church of War in the Southern Continent, angering the Earth Mother Goddess."

"Fusak was not actually prepared; the war was started prematurely due to the interference of the Church of Mother Earth."

"This seems to be a good thing for us too."

"The Church of the Night?" George III's nostrils twitched slightly as he frowned and looked at the generals who were close to the Church of the Night.

"Based on the information we have now, we can speculate that the Church of the Night has won the battle in the Southern Continent, and the Eggers family may join the war."

The news of Admiral Emilius brought joy to all the generals, for the Eggers family represented the entire West Bayron!

Although it is located in the southern continent, it still has the power to support the war.

"Great!" King George III's eyes lit up; this was an unexpected delight.

"What about the Solomon Empire? Is there any activity there?" Someone asked this question, and the entire conference hall fell silent instantly.

A super-empire whose size exceeds that of the three kingdoms can have its every move affect the entire world.

Admiral Emilius was speechless. He slowly shook his head. "The Solomon Empire has not shown any intention to join the war so far."

But no one at the scene was foolish enough to believe that the Solomon Empire would really not participate in the war.

Everyone fell silent, feeling a heavy pressure.

In the end, George III moved on from the topic and began making war preparations.

"Start war mobilization now, and make every effort to keep the armies of both countries outside the border..."

Orders were issued from the noble council, and Rune was transformed into a war machine.

The Augustus family had been secretly preparing for this war for a long time, and now that it had been launched suddenly, although hastily, they were barely able to cope.

However, war is never a good thing for any civilian.

On this day, the hearts of all people were stirred by the news of the war.

"This war could destroy more than six months of our hard work." Audrey was in the Dream Chapel, watching the smiles of the people in the East District fade away.

Those whose lives were improved because of the Survival Act seem to be about to fall into the abyss of life once again.

"If you think there's a problem, then change it." A familiar voice rang out, and Audrey subconsciously turned around to see John Constantine, who hadn't been seen in Backlund for a long time, suddenly appear behind her.

“‘The World’… No, Bishop Constantine!” Audrey looked at Klein with surprise.

"Long time no see, Miss Audrey." Klein nodded slightly, also looking at the devout people praying outside the dreamlike church.

"What did the bishop mean by 'change'?" Audrey asked rather impatiently.

"Since you think their lives should be better, why not take the initiative to intervene?" Klein said softly.

"Actively intervene..." Audrey paused slightly. She came from a noble family, but there were some things that were beyond her control.

"I have an opportunity here, do you need it?" Klein seemed oblivious to Audrey's hesitation, and reached out to grab an object that resembled a dragon's heart.

"This is a 'manipulator'?" Audrey was slightly taken aback. "But I haven't raised enough money yet."

A demigod-level attribute is already ridiculously valuable; even Audrey would need some time to collect it.

"I can sell you this special feature at half price, but I have one condition." Klein looked at the view outside the church.

"You mean..." Audrey instantly understood what Klein meant.

"Not enough," Klein shook his head slightly. "I want you to appear as John Constantine, but as you know, that identity is somewhat dangerous."

Offending all the nobles, led by the Augustus family, is no ordinary danger.

"I can do it!" Audrey's jewel-like eyes lit up instantly. John Constantine's identity represented not only the grudges between him and the nobles, but also the power of the Archbishop of Dreams!

With this identity, she has the ability to save more people!

"Have you thought it through?" Klein smiled slightly as he looked at the glint in Audrey's eyes. This noble lady, who was kind and innocent by nature and had a certain idealism, was actually quite suitable for the Dream Cult.

"Do I need to change my faith?" Audrey suddenly hesitated again; her whole family were devout followers of the Church of the Night.

"You believe in the Goddess of Night, but don't you believe in the Angel of Dreams? He was the first Pope of the Church of Night." Klein said that these were minor issues, and that it would be easy to simply add a name to the list of the Church of Dreams.

"That works?" Audrey was slightly taken aback, but it seemed so!

"This trait is yours." Klein handed the "Manipulator" trait directly to Audrey.

"I also have a copy of the 'Dreamwalker' trait here," Klein said, looking at the golden retriever Susie.

"Can I keep it for myself?!" Audrey asked immediately, as she could afford a Sequence 5 attribute.

"Of course." Klein nodded slightly.

"Then I'll leave it to you." Klein solemnly handed a talisman to Audrey again.

This is John Constantine's identification, which even has causal lines indicating how to avoid ordinary divination.

"Where are you going?" Audrey suddenly asked.

"..." Klein paused for a moment, then said, "I may have to go to participate in this war."
