As a queen who has lost her kingdom, I can see the comments section.

What are they doing now?

Amelia held Eileen's hand as they walked slowly through the incubation room.

The clergy were also injecting purple liquid into each of the incubation chambers.

Amelia looked at them for a while and found that there were a frighteningly large number of these angel puppets, reaching as many as thirty-six.

Each angel puppet carried an aura similar to Stacy's.

'This is outrageous! Does that count as thirty-six Stacys? If there were thirty-six Stacys when the Age of Gods encountered them, we would have been finished.'

Amelia was secretly surprised.

Amelia learned about the clergy's act of infusing power into the angel puppet through the comments, realizing that it was to nurture the angel puppet.

These angel puppets have existed for an unknown period of time, and they always wear down with the passage of time, so they need to be maintained from time to time in order to ensure their safe existence.

Gazing at these angel puppets, Amelia pondered whether or not to intervene.

If I were to suddenly unleash my power, I might not be able to eliminate all the angel puppets, because there are too many of them, and most of the angel puppets will awaken when attacked, which would take up a lot of their time.

Furthermore, at the headquarters of the Church of Heaven, no one knows whether there are other terrifying things besides the angel puppets.

After much deliberation, Amelia decided to play it safe.

"Don't make a move yet."

Amelia said something to Eileen.

Eileen nodded as well.

They waited there until the clergyman finished tending to all thirty-six angel puppets before leaving with him.

Amelia stared at the clergyman's back and followed behind.

The clergy walked through the corridor, turned two corners, and came into a room.

Amelia looked up at the sign—Pharmaceutical Research Laboratory.

The purple liquid used to maintain the angel puppets is produced here.

Amelia thought to herself, and immediately followed Eileen inside.

Chapter 486 My Lord, Please Be Gentle

The first thing you notice in the pharmaceutical research lab is the smell of medicine.

It's impossible to pinpoint exactly what kind of medicine it smells like; it's a blend of various scents, but it doesn't cause any discomfort. Instead, it has a pleasant, refreshing aroma.

Amelia's gaze slowly swept across the area.

The pharmaceutical research lab has many tables with various tools for processing pharmaceuticals. There are also many cabinets filled with bottles and jars.

Seeing the clergy who had come from the incubation room walk to one side, Amelia immediately followed them.

She followed the other person to a counter and saw that the person had put the maintenance solution that had been used on the angel puppet back into the cabinet—the maintenance solution had not been used up.

And in that cabinet, there was even more maintenance solution stored.

After putting down the items, the clergyman left.

There were very few people in the pharmacy research room. After the clergyman left, there were no other clergymen in the nearby area, but there were a few clergymen processing medicines in a more distant location.

"Incredible." Eileen exclaimed, "I don't know how the Church of Heaven managed to do it. They even have the ability to research potions. These are all things that have never appeared in the outside world. They've kept them hidden for so long."

"It's truly remarkable."

Amelia recalled the White Goddess's transformation of the apostles into puppets, which was undoubtedly a very special ability.

Is this a manifestation of the Pure White Goddess's greater progress on the path of divinity compared to other gods? She possesses far more incredible abilities.

Pulling herself back to reality, Amelia memorized her current location and then searched around, quickly finding an item that satisfied her.

Corrosive liquid!

On a counter in the research lab, there were corrosive liquids of various colors, stored in special bottles, otherwise even the bottles would be corroded, possessing extremely terrifying corrosive effects.

Amelia chose the purple corrosive liquid and took it to the maintenance liquid.

The bottles for the corrosion solution and the maintenance solution look the same, only the labels are different. Amelia swapped the labels and changed their positions.

'I don't know if this will work, but they're both purple liquids, the color difference isn't that big, and they don't have any smell, so it should be somewhat effective.'

Amelia thought to herself.

However, this was just a side matter for her. She didn't take action directly on the angel puppet because she wanted to continue investigating the situation here. If she attacked the angel puppet directly, the commotion would be impossible to suppress, and then she wouldn't be able to explore other areas.

The more you learn about the Church of Heaven, the greater your chances of defeating it.

So Amelia then left the potion research lab and began wandering around the headquarters of the Church of Heaven. Under normal circumstances, no one would be able to spot them because of the black mist created by the Shadow Dagger fragments.

Throughout the process, she kept watching the comments section, trying to learn more useful information through them.

"I wonder if we can find any information about the Church of Heaven capturing people for experiments. Those experiments were probably conducted in this place."

Amelia said in a low voice.

The Church of Heaven has been capturing humans for experiments and has also requested other races to send their own test subjects. Their purpose is naturally of great concern, and Amelia also wants to find relevant information.

“We have plenty of days, enough to travel all over the Church of Heaven, no need to rush,” Eileen said softly.

Amelia nodded.

Under these circumstances, they leisurely strolled around the interior of the Church of Heaven.

From public to private areas, there was nowhere they couldn't go. Countless clergymen passed by them without noticing them, and the entire headquarters of the Church of Heaven gradually became transparent to them.

However, after searching for a while, Amelia did not find the site of the Church of Heaven's experiments, which made her somewhat puzzled.

It is a certainty that the Church of Heaven captured many races of beings for experiments. Does the fact that nothing has been found mean that the experiments were not conducted here?

With a thoughtful expression, Amelia gradually entered an office.

The office door was open, so Amelia and Irene could walk straight in.

The office was empty. Amelia's gaze swept across the room and landed on the desk, where a report lay.

She stepped forward, opened the report, and frowned slightly.

This is a report related to her.

Previously, in order to deal with Amelia and Irene, Rex cooperated with Seviara to put Monica on trial and spread the news around the world.

This report is related to that, indicating that relevant information has been disseminated comprehensively to various cities across mainland China.

"That's disgusting."

Amelia spat out a curse without any politeness.

She restored the report, then went inside the desk, opened each cabinet, and saw even more reports.

She casually picked up a report and glanced at it, her brows furrowing once again.

"This experiment was very effective; they all became stronger. However, the failure rate remained high, and many people died. I think we need more test subjects."

Amelia frowned slightly as she looked at the report.

She knew without guessing that this was one of those experiments involving kidnapping people.

However, the location of the experiment was not specified above.

Amelia put the report back and picked up the next one to look at.

"We have cultivated many apostles of the mystical books and controlled their hearts, ensuring their eternal loyalty. The next step is to see which of them can reach the level of a holy apostle, so that they can command God to fight for us."

Upon seeing the new report, Amelia frowned again.

She read the report carefully and discovered that the Church of Heaven was secretly controlling the still weak apostles. Apostles who were weak enough would become loyal to the Church of Heaven after being controlled by it, even if they later reached the level of holy apostles.

Their purpose was to obtain the mysterious book.

"Is it merely a mysterious book?"

Amelia was inspired by this and realized that it was definitely not just that.

If the Church of Heaven wants to have apostles who can wield the power of the mystical books, then why would it let go of the apostles of the other gods?

Just now, the Church of Heaven requested a lot of experimental subjects from various races. Some of them were probably not only used for experiments, but also controlled, right?

The Church of Heaven clearly wants to control all the gods; it is very ambitious.

However, for the Church of Heaven to truly demonstrate its effectiveness in this regard, it will take at least several decades; this is not something that can be accomplished in a short period of time.

After putting down the report, Amelia flipped through the rest of the reports, learning about the Church of Heaven.

"Bishop Leisa violated a noblewoman, and that noble family was causing trouble. Therefore, to ensure the Church's prestige is not affected, we have secretly caused an accident that resulted in the entire noble family's deaths. As for Bishop Leisa's punishment, please indicate."

Amelia was furious at the report, because the bishop was only punished with three months' salary, which was far too lenient.

The Church of Heaven's previous actions towards the victims were even more infuriating.

Amelia continued flipping through the report.

There were actually relatively few formal reports; more reports were of the type like those of Bishop Leza, which were reports of important clergy members in various places committing certain crimes and then covering them up.

A few years ago, the Church of Heaven kept a very low profile on the mainland, but this low profile was a facade. In fact, they had been operating in secret all along, but they had covered up all traces, which made them appear low-key.

They might even do a lot of bad things, because if one person does something bad and doesn't get a serious punishment, then a second or third person will do the same, and it will slowly ignite into a prairie fire.

If the first person to do wrong is adequately deterred, then even if bad people emerge in the future, there won't be too many. As long as the correct measures are taken each time, the clergy as a whole should still be inclined towards goodness.

But for some reason, the Church of Heaven always punishes its members very lightly, so much so that some people who should have been good and living under normal rules end up turning to evil because of this distorted system.

"There's something wrong with his head."

Amelia made an accurate judgment.

There was a saying on Earth before I traveled there: "If the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam will be crooked too."

The fact that such a situation could occur within the Church of Heaven undoubtedly indicates that there are serious problems within its leadership, which in turn leads to problems among those below.

Unbeknownst to many, the Church of Heaven has become distorted beyond recognition, yet it maintains an outwardly holy facade, which is undeniably ironic.

Just as Amelia was about to continue reading the report, Eileen whispered, "Someone's here."

Amelia paused.
