Chapter 364: This Plan Is—The Sacred Plan!
Clementine's eye twitched, her expression stiff. To think she would actually hear someone else describe that monster as "easy to get along with"!
Perhaps monsters had their own way of communicating with each other.
She glanced cautiously at Tang Zheng.
Is he really a Divine Human?
"Lord, about our plan..." Clementine licked her lips, a hint of fear in her purple pupils.
She had deeply experienced the terror of the young man before her. He clearly possessed immense power, yet he always kept it hidden.
He hadn't even revealed it when facing that monstrous Divine Human.
This, in turn, made him seem all the more unfathomable!
"That's your plan, not mine."
Tang Zheng looked down, adjusting the "Otherworld Nine-Puzzle Ring" in his hands. The silver metal clinked crisply in his palm.
"Leaking information about the 'Divine Human,' 'accidentally'... hmm, inciting a war between the Theocracy and the remaining True Dragon Lords, which would result in the Theocracy being implicated or even destroyed."
"Your desire for revenge runs incredibly deep, Clementine."
Clementine's eyes trembled, and a cold sweat broke out on her forehead, hidden by her fluffy golden bangs.
She couldn't detect any change in his emotions from his tone, making it impossible to gauge the young man's true thoughts.
This was also why she could never be certain if he was a "Divine Human"!
She had laid out this plan from the very beginning.
If he were a Divine Human, logically, he should not have let her live.
"A plan born purely from a desire to vent is meaningless."
Tang Zheng finished assembling the "Otherworld Nine-Puzzle Ring" in his hands. Only then did he slowly raise his head and look ahead indifferently.
She wore a mix of long and short, coppery-orange boots, revealing firm, shapely thighs and a toned, flat abdomen. Her figure was undeniably fiery.
Clementine's body tensed for an instant before relaxing again. She knew that with Tang Zheng's power, if he truly wanted to kill her, she would have no strength to resist.
"Do you really think the Council State doesn't know about the existence of Divine Humans?"
Tang Zheng said flatly.
The members of the Black Scripture know many secrets. After all, that unit exists for the purpose of capturing the so-called Catastrophe Dragon Lord—the sealed Demon Tree in the Great Forest of Tob.
"Actually, I'm more curious about what agreement the legendary Dark God and the Slane Theocracy of the past made with the remaining True Dragon Lords."
A sharp glint flashed in Tang Zheng's eyes as he fell into thought.
"I will help you investigate, Lord," Clementine replied immediately.
Tang Zheng gave a noncommittal response.
This dates back 500 years, a time before even Zesshi Zetsumei was born.
A secret of this level is likely known only to the Platinum Dragon Lord today. There's a high probability that no written record of it exists within the Theocracy.
"Although this country is filled with a false sanctity, its continued existence is still necessary for humanity at present."
"More important than that is whether you can investigate the location of the treasury that houses the artifacts of the 'Six Great Gods'."
*Shua!*
Tang Zheng tossed the Otherworld Nine-Puzzle Ring over.
Clementine reached out and caught the peculiar metal construct, replying, "Yes, Lord."
After taking the Otherworld Nine-Puzzle Ring, Clementine turned and left.
She was the one Zesshi Zetsumei had sent to get the toy from him. The reason for dispatching Clementine was likely because she had been in contact with him before.
"I can't leave a magical imprint on it, what a pity."
Tang Zheng sighed inwardly.
Zesshi Zetsumei may have her mental flaws, but that doesn't mean she's stupid. If he left a magical imprint on the "Nine-Puzzle Ring," she would likely discover it with her power.
The good relationship they had just established would inevitably be ruined and might even turn into outright hostility.
Zesshi Zetsumei is a vital force for fighting the Bone King!
"Her chaotic class composition is a problem."
Tang Zheng frowned slightly. Readjusting Zesshi Zetsumei's classes wouldn't be too difficult.
He just needed to kill her to de-level her!
The problem would be raising her level again, as it was unclear whether the energy from converting neutral angels into experience would also work on people from this Otherworld.
Tang Zheng had never experimented with it.
It wasn't that he didn't have time, but that he might not even have enough experience to raise his own level.
"For now, this is the only way. Once I grasp an ability that can resist the influence of a World Item, I can take some more forceful measures."
Tang Zheng pondered silently, his expression gradually turning serious.
——Church Conference Hall!
A pure white, sacred environment.
At a large conference table sat nine people in total: the six Cardinals, Tang Zheng, "Pink" Isadoro, and Remedios.
Although "Black" Pabel was powerful and one of the Holy Kingdom's Nine Colors, he was not qualified to participate in this meeting.
The series of matters concerning the "Blend Potion," angels, and so on were currently top secret, with very few people in the entire Theocracy aware of them.
In the eyes of the Holy Kingdom and the Slane Theocracy, this matter not only concerned the strength of their respective countries but also the very foundation of humanity. Naturally, the fewer people who knew, the better.
Truth be told, even "Pink" Isadoro wasn't qualified to know.
Tang Zheng sat in an arched conference chair, his gaze shifting to Remedios beside him, meeting her eyes.
"Tang."
A smile appeared in Remedios's usually sharp gaze.
Tang Zheng nodded in response and looked down at the documents in his hand, thinking to himself, "Since Remedios is here, it means the Holy Kingdom and the Slane Theocracy have basically reached an agreement."
At the conference table.
"...What kind of talk is that."
"Initiating a large-scale magic ritual is a complex process. It not only involves the arrangement of various magical materials but also a deep understanding of magic..."
"Our Holy Kingdom can send people to learn."
"Heh."
"Isadoro, most of the magic casters in your Holy Kingdom are Faith-Type casters. Learning the ritual requires proficiency from Magic-Type casters."
"Please allow me to be blunt. I do not believe you can learn the magic ritual. Even if you could, it would take far too long."
"......!"
The sounds of "Pink" Isadoro and several of the Cardinals arguing could be heard.
Remedios's gaze was slightly vacant. She had never been able to understand politics or magic, and her head ached whenever she heard them discussed together.
It was better to leave it for Isadoro to handle.
Remedios tilted her head slightly, occasionally glancing at Tang Zheng, who was reading the documents, a look of admiration in her eyes.
She felt her intuition was quite sharp.
Tang was indeed an outstanding person!
Not long ago, Isadoro had opposed her having too much contact with Tang, but now he had admitted his narrow-mindedness and error.
