Chapter 750 - The Temple of Light Is Ruined (2/2)
Since F6 had rarely acted as a group recently, except for Li Lin and the others who liked to team up together to level up at the Urganda Church of Love, Roland, Schuck, and Betta each had their own territory.
But when it came to a real fight, it wouldn’t be hard to gather all seven of them to act together. “They may not…” The female streamer still tried to argue.
But Roland waved his hand. “I believe that we are far closer than this impromptu rabble of yours.”
At this moment, Gardner, who had been listening for a long time, said, “What kind of compensation do you want?” “It’s not what I want, it’s what you guys want to give.” Roland smiled slightly. “Also, I want you guys to post a group apology video on the forums, stating that you will never secretly screw with me again.”
When they heard this, their faces looked as unsightly as if they had eaten feces.
These few people were considered well-known figures among the players, and having them post an apology video would be a great humiliation for them.
“You think you can just bully us…”
A Warrior player slapped the table and rose. “Then let’s fight and see who’s afraid?”
Roland nodded, spread his hands, and said smugly, “Go on then!”
The seven people looked at Roland and three stood up and tried to leave, but were dragged back to their chairs by a few of their friends.
They wore annoyed expressions and didn’t want to look at Roland anymore.
Gardner said, “Roland, don’t take things too far. Everything is negotiable, isn’t it?”
“When you united with the lichs to kill me, why didn’t you think that things shouldn’t be taken too far? Why didn’t you think that everything is negotiable then?” Roland humiliated them with their own words. “That’s a bad double standard to have.”
Gardner’s head also hurt when he heard this.
“So let’s put it another way,” Gardner said, scratching his head in pain. “What exactly would it take for you to let us off the hook and not force us to send a video apology?”
Roland shook his head and stood up.
That meant the negotiations had failed.
The others looked annoyed as they watched Roland leave and had no choice but to leave the manor themselves.
Roland came back into the room and Andonara, who had been watching from the side, laughed. “I’ve rarely seen you so aggressive.”
“I know these people of my own too well.” Roland sighed. “Sometimes your humility, your keeping the peace, is just a sign of your weakness and gullibility to them. You can’t talk things over with people who have always enjoyed having the world revolve around them-you just can’t back down at all.”
Andonara smiled and said, “By the way, how is it going with Stephanie?” “I’m planning to head over there.” Roland took Andonara’s soft and warm right hand. “I’ll trouble you to keep an eye on the house.”
“Okay.” Andonara smiled lightly.
Then Roland found time to teleport to the capital of Fareins and met Queen Stephanie without any problems.
“I was just about to send for you.” Stephanie grinned.
Because of the teleportation arrays that had been built everywhere, it wasn’t difficult to travel from Fareins to Hollevin now.
Moreover, the teleportation array was set for a maximum of ten people. This also cut off the idea of any country raiding another.
“I reckon the Temple of Light has got the mole by now.”
Sitting on Roland’s lap, Stephanie laughed. “They did find out, and you’ll never guess who the mole is!” “It’s either the Holy Lady or the Pope!” Roland smiled.
“You actually guessed right!” Stephanie then smiled slyly. “But only half right. There are not one, but two moles—the Holy Lady and the Pope!”
Roland couldn’t help but whistle.
This was some powerful news.
This was much more shocking than a fallen Saint Samurai.
Stephanie laughed and gloated, “Both of them were found out by Schuck. After he returned last month, he held a high-level meeting as both a Saint Samurai and a Golden Son, saying that the Alignment Detection could fail and that you told him about this.”
Roland nodded. “Indeed that’s what I said. I’ve done similar tests and the Alignment Detection isn’t really reliable. It can be misleading. And then?”
Then he requested the Goddess of Light to descend as a clone.
“Impressive!”
Roland clicked his tongue.
“And he stressed that the goddess had to use her divine eyes to check the top brass one by one.” Stephanie put her arm around Roland and smiled quite happily. “The first one was the Pope, and then the Holy Lady! Double bingo!”
“Hahahaha.”
Stephanie laughed so hard that she could barely stand.
She hung on Roland’s body like a pile of rotten meat.
It was no wonder she was so excited.
It was the tradition for the royal family to see the Temple of Light in trouble and expect them to make a fool of themselves.
“And then what?” asked Roland curiously.
“The Goddess of Light interrogated them as to why they were apostates.” Stephanie laughed. “I heard that the Goddess of Light was sad and annoyed at that time.”
“Did they say anything?” Roland was also quite curious.
This kind of gossip could hardly be seen in centuries.
“The Pope grew up as a pawn planted in the Temple of Light by the Realm of Devils and was a henchman of the Demon Goddess Sidi, who isn’t strong in combat, but is quite good at supporting magic and knew how to subvert Alignment Detection.” Stephanie laughed. “Then the Pope went undercover in the Temple of Light and rose moved up all the way to where he is now.”
“He must have died a terrible death,” said Roland after some thought.
“Yes, the Goddess of Light burned him directly on the spot; even his soul was burned into light crystals.” “What about the Holy Lady?” Roland asked.
“You’ll never think of the reason for her betrayal.” Stephanie’s expression looked rather comical at this point, trying desperately to stifle a laugh but unable to do so.
Then she laughed her head off in Roland’s lap and couldn’t stop for a while.
“Say it.” Roland slapped her buttocks.
They felt extremely good in his hand. “Then I’ll mimic the cries of the Holy Lady at that time!”
Stephanie cleared her throat. “‘Why, Goddess, why did you steal my man!””
Roland’s mouth stayed open.
Stephanie’s expression instantly became resentful. “‘I was the one who met Schuck first, brought him into the church, had our first meal together, and went on our first date together, but why… are you, as a goddess, stealing men from mortals like us? Aren’t any of the male gods in the Realm of Gods to your liking? Or can they not satisfy you!’”
Roland’s mouth stayed open.
“According to my informant’s report—”. Stephanie laughed again, and after a while, she wiped her eyes and said, “The atmosphere of the high council meeting was quite odd. All the cardinals, and all the Saint Samurai, their mouths were so wide open that it wasn’t a problem to stick a fist in them.”
“And then what of the Lady?” Roland laughed too, unable to hold it in.
“The Goddess of Light’s clone was first stunned, then covered her face and flew back to the divine realm. She didn’t even give an order about what to do with the Holy Lady, who ended up in jail for now.” Stephanie’s voice was hoarse with laughter. “Then Schuck also ran away on the red dragon… It’s said that there is no news of him even till now. The entire Church of the Light is now leaderless, but the good thing is that the cardinals still have some power. They are desperately trying to suppress the flow of news, but I predict it won’t be suppressed for long.”
Of course, it couldn’t be suppressed for long.
The Pope was dead and the Holy Lady had been seized.
The entire Temple of Light was almost paralyzed.
What else could be done?
Roland laughed and pinged Schuck in the system chat.
“How does it feel to be caught between two feuding women?”
