Chapter 138: The Secret Power of the Virgin Mary
Baal looked at the letter that had been sent to the Virgin Mary and guessed, “What do you think the Holy War Bishop wants to see for?”
The Virgin Mary did not answer him. Instead, she continued to frown and read the letter repeatedly.
Thus, Baal asked again, “Even you can’t guess?”
“I think it might have sothing to do with the powerlessness of the smart chas in the battle outside New York Base City not long ago.”
The Virgin Mary sighed deeply. “I received a ssage from a secret agent. It said that the Holy War Bishop sent out a smart cha army. However, they were attacked by an unknown power outside New York Base City and suffered heavy losses. Furthermore, what surprised the most was that the ssage was very clear. Less than half of the smart cha army returned to the Holy City. And…”
Baal looked at the Virgin Mary and asked anxiously, “What?”
The Virgin Mary looked at Baal.
“The secret agent said that the smart chas that returned to the Holy City seed to be controlled by so power. At that ti, the Bishop did not allow these smart chas to enter the Holy City. However, what happened after that was not sothing that the secret agent could detect.”
“If that’s the case, why hasn’t the Holy War Bishop sent out a high-level smart cha?” Baal asked the Virgin Mary, puzzled.
“I think that maybe the Holy War Bishop doesn’t want to lose the strength of this elite army. The chanical Holy City has always wanted to replace our Holy City. Thus, the Bishop wants to preserve so of his power. Only then can he tide through this crisis safely.”
Baal pondered over the Virgin Mary’s words and asked, “If that’s the case, then this ti, did the Holy War Bishop summon to the Holy City Capital in order to obtain your secret?”
The Virgin Mary knew what secret Baal was talking about. After all, although she had moved the cha factory to a hidden place, the factory on the east of Washington had not been abandoned. Furthermore, the new cha prototype was stored there.
At this mont, Baal continued to probe, “If that’s really the reason why the Holy War Bishop summoned , how should I hide your secret so that he won’t suspect ?”
“The Holy War Bishop has summoned you to go to the Holy City alone at this ti. Clearly, he already has many doubts about . At this ti, we can’t let the Holy War Bishop doubt your loyalty.”
“So what should I do?” Baal asked.
“Tell him the truth, including how I stockpiled tungsten cores in San Francisco and developed mutated cha beasts.”
“But…” Baal looked at the Virgin Mary and guessed at her current thoughts. He wanted to know if what she said was true or if she was just testing him.
The Holy Mother knew exactly what she was thinking.
“No one can lie to the Holy War Bishop. You can only lie to the Holy War Bishop with a lie that contains the truth.”
“You an…” Baal found it harder and harder to guess the Virgin Mary’s thoughts.
“Since I’m still a hidden danger in the eyes of the Holy War Bishop, he will definitely attack sooner or later. Instead of trying to hide it, it’s better to exaggerate and let him know that I have enough tungsten cores to launch a new world war. I also have new chas to arm my army. However, how to say this to the Holy War Bishop will depend on you.”
“I understand. I will let the Holy War Bishop hear what you want him to hear. Furthermore, I will find a suitable reason for this.”
“I believe you. After all, our fates are connected. If I lose everything, you will also lose your value to the Holy War Bishop.”
“At that ti, both David and Oria will definitely fight for my territory. At that ti, your fate will be reduced to dust.”
A few days later, Baal led a team of smart chas to the Imperial Capital Steel City of the chanical Holy City. The entire city was built on the mountain. Three city walls were built along the path of the mountain, with each city wall surrounded by towering steel gates. The city walls were also filled with sharp spikes that were separated by arrow towers.
In the city, both sides of the stone-lined streets were closely connected buildings. There were pointed towers between the slanted roofs. Almost all the buildings were made of tal. Even under the cover of the clouds, when looked at from afar, the city was like a towering silver tower.
After Baal entered the city, his guards settled down in the outer city. Then, he followed the guide sent by the Bishop alone through the city gates and walked to the chanical Temple.
At the end of the road, the golden woven carpet passed through an open space. After passing through the open space, Baal continued to walk upwards. They walked past four city gates and a golden palace appeared in front of them. The pagodas and high walls making up the palace ford a circle. anwhile, in the middle of these pagodas stood a huge black pagoda that reached into the clouds. It was exceptionally eye-catching in the golden palace.
When the last door of the hall opened, the figure of the Holy War Bishop appeared on the throne at the end of the hall. Under the bright lights reflected from the four walls of the golden hall, the Holy War Bishop’s black armor, which was covered in fire patterns, seed like a cluster of burning flas.
Baal knelt in the center of the hall with his left hand on his right chest. He looked down and said sincerely, “Great Bishop!”
“Get up and show your loyalty.”
Baal understood and stood up. “Great Bishop, please punish .”
“Why do you say so?”
“I think the Virgin Mary has discovered my identity. She’s deliberately avoiding so that I can’t gather more information to show my loyalty to you.”
“It seems like…” The Bishop looked at Baal and pretended to be deep in thought.
“Have you already given your loyalty to the Virgin Mary?”
“No.” Baal pretended to be terrified and denied it.
“My loyalty to you is eternal.”
“But you didn’t bring what I wanted.”
At this mont, Baal changed the topic and said, “The Virgin Mary is too cunning. Even though I’ve sent people to monitor her, I only know that she created a large number of tungsten cores in the San Francisco area. The amount of tungsten cores she has now is enough to equip an army of tens of thousands of people.”
“You’ve already reported this to . No matter how many tungsten cores the Virgin Mary has, she will still have to rely on the smart cha manufacturing technology in the Holy City. Without enough smart chas, no amount of tungsten cores will help.”
“However, according to the information I recently received, the Virgin Mary has secretly gathered Engineering cha Masters to break down the existing chas. They have even created new chas.”
Baal actively revealed the hidden power of the Virgin Mary to test the Bishop’s reaction. In reality, he knew very well that the Bishop in front of him had long known about the Virgin Mary’s power.
