"It seems that your method worked well." Looking at the dozen or so invitations in front of her, Sylvia passed the wine glass in her hand to Leo, then picked up an invitation letter and looked at it. Said: "The invitation letter from the Society of Plant Species Research? Didn't they send it to the wrong place?"

Leo shook his head and said, "In their minds, I am a foreign scholar who has enough money to give out large sums of sponsorship at will. There is no loss to them if they can get an invitation from me. If you pull sponsorship here, even if they make a profit."

Sylvia quickly selected six invitations from a dozen invitations, handed them to Leo, and said, "Just invest in these six."

Leo took a look at the invitation letter, and questioned: "I can understand the investment objectives of other research societies. After all, the projects are related to occultism and churches, but this invitation letter from the Fashion and Customs Research Association..."

"The president of this research society is the bishop of the Church of the Delights in Cape West End." Sylvia explained.

Leo hesitated after hearing this, and said, "Is that the church founded by the Supreme Abyss?"

"It's not clear for the time being, you need to get in touch with it." Sylvia shook her head and said.

This world hung in the air is too close to the abyss, and the world itself can be said to be riddled with holes, making this place there is no resistance to the higher existence from outside, if it is not for the laws of the world, it is extremely special, especially for those who come from the abyss. With a strong reverse erosion force, maybe this place has already become a paradise for abyssal creatures.

However, even so, there are still some abyssal masters trying to enter the world and corrupt the world. Some failed completely, such as the one trapped on the top of the mountain. Some seemed to succeed, but in fact they failed, such as now The joyous man mentioned by Leo and Sylvia.

The Joyful Church is a church that only spreads in the Old World. Not only does it have no missionary behavior in the New World, even the books concerning Joyful People did not appear in the New World. Leo and Sylvia also encountered accidentally. It was only after a sermon ceremony of the Church of the Joyful that there was such a church, and sensitive Sylvia also smelled a faint breath of the abyss from the priests of the Joyful.

Because of this, they collected some information related to the joyful.

Speaking of the Joyner Church is a very special church. At the beginning, the Joyner Church appeared in the world as an underground church, and for a long time it was regarded as heresy by most churches, and its followers were After being caught, he was either burned to death or hanged, no different from other heretics.

It was not until one day that all the churches unanimously removed the Joyner from their own heresy list and allowed the Joyner Church to preach publicly, and the Joyner Church became one of the official churches in the world, and this day was also The joyous believers call it the Glory Day, which corresponds to the legal joyous festival of the Joyful Church.

No one who studies religious history has an answer to why other churches suddenly abandon the heresy ban on the Church of the Joyful. Even other churches don’t know what’s going on. Only the parties at the time know this. A special mystery in the history of religion.

And because of its original identity, the Joyful Church has become the only special church in the world that has transformed from a heretical church to a formal church.

Leo and Sylvia are also interested in this huge mystery of the Joyner Church, so they are also considering looking for opportunities to contact the senior leaders of the Joyner Church. Unexpectedly, they have not officially put into action, and the Joyner Church will send it by themselves. Here comes the door.

As a result, Leo quickly wrote several replies, five of which responded to him, and the Joyner Church handed it over to Sylvia.

After writing the reply, Leo handed the reply to the butler who was temporarily found, and asked him to send someone to these academies. After that, he turned around and asked: "How are Penny and Joanne? "

"Very good. The few commissions I received recently are all very difficult commissions. They are completed perfectly and have already established a reputation," Sylvia said with a satisfied smile and said, "You helped Joan to do the disguise. It is also perfect. He has seen Priest Hans several times in the past few days, and Priest Hans has not recognized that the person he talks to face to face is the person he most wants to find."

When he first arrived at the Port of Western Cape, the attitude of the connector of Heresa’s transport mission towards Qiao An also came to the Old World, showing that this connector and the witch doctor who implanted Qiao An with Ability-like cells must be somewhat different. Contact, and Qiao'an's particularity and importance in this organization is higher than Leo expected.

Afterwards, the secret search of the whole city led by the connector also confirmed his guess, and during the large search, some priests who participated in the search could easily find Qiao Ann’s location, which made Leo couldn’t help suspecting Qiao Ann. There is a special energy wave in his body, and the other party can use this energy wave to find Qiao'an's precise location.

Therefore, after avoiding a search, Leo made some disguise for Qiao'an, concealing and changing Qiao'an's overall temperament through the rune magic circle, and even Qiao'an's appearance was changed through some special methods. As a result, those searchers could no longer find Qiao Ann, and now even if Qiao Ann appeared in front of the connector, the person could not see that the person in front of him was the person who had been looking for for many days.

After deciding to stay at West Point Ocean Point for a while, Leo did not ask Joan and Petunia to conduct some special training every day. Instead, he asked them to open a detective agency in the city while familiarizing themselves with their own strengths. The practicality in the commissioned task, while assisting Sylvia to collect information in the city, and their first intelligence collection task was to collect the identity information of the connector.

This task is not difficult, because the connector is also considered a celebrity in the city. Reverend Hans Vernier, the senior priest of the Mother of the Night Church, is now the assistant to the dean of the Holy Prayer House at Ocean Pointe Port. , Is one of the dean’s right-hand men, and his other position is the captain of the heretical hunting team at Cape West Point. Under his hands he holds 33 original sin knights and heretical hunters from different churches. The entire West Wangyangjiao Port holds the most extraordinary power.

It is precisely because of the identity of this Hans priest that Leo has some doubts that the strange god-like cells derived from the real eye and flesh of Qiao An and others may have come from the hands of church organizations in the Old World, and the purpose may be to want Through the special power of the real eye, it is easier to find the hidden heretics.

Originally, Sylvia’s idea was to capture the priest Hans directly, and then ask all the secrets from the opponent. Leo also felt that this method was crude and straightforward, but it was the most effective, so he agreed. This method, only when Leo discovered that the Hans priest possessed the protection of the Mother of the Night, there were more than one, and each of the imprints contained extraordinary power. If you rushed it, I am afraid Alarmed the entire Mother of Night Church.

So Leo and the others had to abandon that direct but effective method and instead use other roundabout methods to contact the priest Hans and other people who may be members of their organization.

Leo disguised as a foreign scholar, began to haunt various academic gatherings, earned fame, and made some investment in academic research, and gradually integrated into the academic circle of Cape Western Cape, starting with Ronco Byronville.

The reason for choosing Ronco Byronville is because they have determined that Ronco Byronville should also be a member of the secret organization, because in the case of Joanne, Reverend Hans had contact with Ronco Byronville. , Just because the place of the conversation was in a forbidden room full of various divine powers in the Temple of Prayer, Leo’s spiritual net could not penetrate into it, so I don’t know what the content of their conversation was, but since then Priest Hans stopped Judging from the large search operation, it should be related to Qiao Ann.

As for Sylvia, she went back to her old profession and began to establish her underground intelligence network in the city. This is a familiar thing for her, plus the powerful power she now possesses. In less than a month, she has become the underground intelligence queen of Ocean Pointe Port. Basically all the intelligence organizations in Ocean Pointe Port have been controlled by her, but these organizations do not know that they are controlled by one person. Lived, and still attacking each other according to the past relationship, so the appearance of Sylvia, the underground intelligence queen, did not cause much fluctuation in the market.

It has been almost a month since the day of disembarkation. Leo and Sylvia have been perfectly integrated into the society of Cape Western Cape during this month, although they have some behaviors and local people. There are still some differences, but the identity of a foreign scholar can be used to cover up the past, unlike when the ship just disembarked, the characteristics of the words and deeds from the New World were so obvious.

Through this month of exploration, Leo and the others also have a clearer understanding of the situation in the Old World.

For example, the churches in the Old World are very strict with supernatural powers. Basically all open people with supernatural powers have been captured by the church and trained as knights of original sin.

Even if there are some survivors, these survivors dare not reveal the traces of their extraordinary powers, and they always pretend to be ordinary people.

Correspondingly, because of environmental reasons, some accidents related to extraordinary powers here have far exceeded the New World. Only Leo and the others have temporarily stayed here for less than a month. There were as many as a dozen accidents of extraordinary power.

In these accidents, most of them are just minor accidents. For example, a sudden abnormal energy in a certain place caused some supernatural accidents like haunted houses, etc.

There are also several accidents that can be regarded as major accidents. For example, a space gap leading to another world appeared out of thin air, and certain creatures from another world entered this world.

Such accidents involving extraordinary powers are all attributed to a secret organization jointly established by the church and the local government to deal with such accidents. However, the number of members of this organization is very small, and it cannot be handled at all. With the emergence of non-governmental organizations, such as detectives or investigators.

Such detectives and investigators are ordinary people. Even if there are unusual ones, they only perceive beyond ordinary people. They do not have any special powerful powers. The reason why they are able to deal with such incidents involving extraordinary powers is because of that. The official secret organization regularly sells them some items that involve extraordinary powers but can also be used by ordinary people, such as a certain shotgun ammunition that has been blessed by magic.

Leo discovered this, and that's why Joanne and Petunia disguised themselves as a pair of siblings who had lost their families due to extraordinary accidents, and came here to open a detective office specifically aimed at extraordinary accidents.

That official secret organization was very tolerant towards non-governmental organizations such as the detective agency. It only met them once in the first two days of the establishment of the detectives of Joanne and Petunia, verified their identities, and then secretly observed them. The main purpose of the two people's abilities is to determine whether they have extraordinary powers, and Leo had anticipated this in advance, so the two powers were blocked.

After a final inspection, the official organization confirmed that both of them were ordinary people, but their perception of extraordinary powers was slightly stronger than ordinary people, and they were always able to find clues to extraordinary accidents in the first time, so the two detectives They are included in the list of their support, and some tools and weapons used to deal with extraordinary accidents will be sold to the two on a regular basis.

Moreover, because of their outstanding abilities, they soon participated in a major extraordinary accident related to a space fissure. The rift in com is related to the abyss, and this time the person in charge of handling this matter is the priest Hans and his heretical hunting team, and Joan and other civil organizations are only around to help prevent others from breaking in.

During this process, Joan and Priest Hans had close contact, but Priest Hans did not see Joan's disguise at all, but regarded Joan as an ordinary folk detective.

However, Qiao Ann’s disguise is not perfect. Leo can only cover up Qiao Ann’s temperament and change his appearance, but he cannot change what he already possesses, such as the vainness that already exists in him. The Church of the Heart of Divine Power and the Church of False Heart of Swordsmanship.

It is conceivable that as long as Joan dares to act in front of other church knights, then he will definitely be recognized as being related to the False Heart Church, and then revealing his identity. Therefore, Leo removed the weapons used by Joan and Petunia from the knights from the beginning. Swords and hunter bows were replaced with special short-barreled shotguns, reducing their exposure to danger.

Now everything is proceeding step by step. All Leo needs to do is throw the bait out and let the fish take the bait. In addition to his identity as a foreign scholar, this bait will also be published in a certain academic journal. A research report on knights in the Old Kingdom period in the Central Kingdom area published on the previous page, and in this report revealed some information related to the transformation of the human body.
