After saying this, Clementine stared intently at Tang Zheng, only to find that he showed not a single trace of the surprise, shock, or other expected emotions.
"How boring."
Clementine pouted, pulling her leaning body back and sinking into the sofa, a look of disappointment flashing across her wild face.
"I almost forgot, you're a monster too. The 'Heroic Realm' is nothing in your eyes."
This was clearly national-level information, yet Clementine had spilled it all in one go.
"A squad composed of thirteen individuals in the 'Heroic Realm,' what a luxurious lineup." Although Tang Zheng already knew this information, he still felt a sense of awe toward the Black Scripture.
It could be said to be the strongest squad among humans!
"A nasty guy died before, so there were twelve of us, but they added a new one recently. It's a guy with the title 'Divine Chain Ensnarer' who uses chains."
Clementine said unhappily, seemingly displeased with this person.
"Oh, is that so."
Tang Zheng was a little surprised, saying calmly, "From the name, he sounds like the troublesome type."
He had killed the Comedian. The Black Scripture should have been short one member, and this Divine Chain Ensnarer was originally meant to replace the traitor Clementine. He never expected the man would end up replacing her brother instead.
"How's the information I asked you to gather?" Tang Zheng asked.
"It's currently at a classified level."
"Even Stargazer Far-Sight doesn't know about it, which means its importance is very high. Only those at the Cardinal level are aware."
Clementine looked at Tang Zheng with great curiosity. Her eyes held a mixture of reverence and disbelief.
She knew just how arrogant those Cardinals were!
"In that case, there's no need to investigate further."
Tang Zheng waved his hand, signaling for Clementine to leave.
"Using a girl and then telling her to leave, what a heartless man~"
Clementine said playfully, her rounded, slender calves extending from her black robe as she stood up, feigning an abandoned look.
Tang Zheng ignored Clementine's resentful act and suddenly asked, "What do you think are the chances of controlling the Black Scripture?"
"Impossible!"
Clementine's voice suddenly sharpened. The feigned innocent look on her face vanished as she stared at Tang Zheng in disbelief.
She had already revealed information about the Black Scripture. For Tang Zheng to still ask such a question, knowing what he knew…
Clementine suddenly realized that the man before her seemed even crazier than she was!
—Could it be!
He came to the Slane Theocracy for more than just the potion.
All sorts of thoughts flashed through Clementine's mind. She hadn't even noticed that a crazed excitement had appeared on her wild face, her fingers unconsciously toying with her weapon.
Clearly, she too was contemplating the possibility. This was far more interesting and insane than simply destroying the Theocracy!
"Impossible," Clementine added again, her voice trembling. "The power of a god-kin is beyond a mortal's imagination. It's an unreachable power!"
"If one could truly control the Black Scripture, one could indirectly control or influence the entire Slane Theocracy!"
Tang Zheng didn't speak, just shrugged with a smile, as if to say he was only joking.
Clementine's purple pupils dilated slightly. A certain possibility came to mind—could the man before her also be a "god-kin"?
Thinking of his monstrous strength!
Besides a terrifyingly talented "Aberrant," this was the only other possibility.
The next day.
May 11th.
Chief Justice Gureido's student appeared before Tang Zheng again, leading him from the guest residence to a carriage, which then proceeded toward the central temple.
In the carriage.
Tang Zheng looked at the young blond man sitting across from him and asked in confusion, "Where are the people from the Holy Kingdom?"
"Your Excellency Tang, the members of the Holy Kingdom are being personally hosted by my teacher."
The young blond man replied respectfully and hurriedly.
"Is that so."
Tang Zheng nodded, his gaze shifting to the scenery outside the carriage.
It seemed the Theocracy didn't want the people from the Holy Kingdom to participate in the upcoming matters with him. But what would the people from the Holy Kingdom do?
Tang Zheng suddenly sensed something, and an imperceptible smile touched the corners of his lips.
The next moment!
"——Neigh!"
The carriage horses suddenly let out a sharp whinny as if frightened, forcefully halting their advance. Their hooves made a piercing scraping sound on the ground.
The sudden stop caused the carriage to jolt violently. The young blond man inside couldn't react in time and, due to inertia, slammed into the carriage's doorframe with a dull "thud" and a cry of pain.
"What's going on?"
The young blond man got up clumsily while rubbing his head, speaking to the outside with a mix of alarm and anger.
This was the Holy Capital, and the carriage bore the emblem of the Church. Who would dare stop the carriage under these circumstances!
At this thought, the young man placed a hand on the doorframe for support and turned apologetically toward Tang Zheng. He was a distinguished guest personally entrusted to his teacher.
If he were affected, it could hinder the upcoming talks!
As it turned out, the young man found that Tang Zheng was still sitting steadily in the carriage, completely unaffected by the sudden stop. He then remembered that the other party was a powerhouse in the "Heroic Realm."
"Are you hurt?" Tang Zheng asked with concern.
"I've made a fool of myself in front of you, Your Excellency."
The young man's face flushed red. He quickly waved his hand and then stood up to exit the carriage. He wanted to see who dared to stop them.
He lifted the carriage curtain!
The young man immediately noticed a conspicuous black figure blocking the way in front of the carriage.
The person wore a short black cloak, a black dome hat, and even a black mask covering their mouth and nose.
This attire, completely different from that of the Slane Theocracy, made the young blond man realize at once that this was one of the members from the Holy Kingdom.
"You…"
Just as the young blond man was about to say something, he was met with a pair of cold, terrifyingly sharp eyes, like those of a hawk.
A formless killing intent washed over him!
The young blond man froze on the spot, cold sweat beading on his forehead, as if any movement or word would get him killed by the other person in an instant.
"Pavel? What are you doing here? Come on up."
A gentle, soft chuckle came from within the carriage, causing the faint killing intent that had enveloped the young blond man to vanish in an instant.
