Just as "Spellsinger of God" Ace Snake was deep in thought, the space beside him suddenly tore open, revealing a phantom and mysterious door.
The door opened silently, and a handsome man with black hair and golden eyes walked out. The man was dressed in a neat robe, looking mature and refined.
"Snake, what happened here?" the man asked, while examining the scene, and then frowned.
Although Lin Ruo and the others had cleaned up the battlefield to a certain extent before leaving, ensuring that the official Beyonders could not use it to divine their location, the remaining traces still allowed the man to discern many things.
At the same time as he spoke, in another part of the void, a spirit body, almost transparent and as large as a mountain peak, emerged, placing a figure in mid-air.
That figure was Anthony Stevenson, the head of the Backlund diocese of the Evernight Church. At this time, Anthony Stevenson was still wearing his black and red patterned Archbishop's robe, which he seemed to never change, looking quite reliable and dignified.
In the next second after his arrival, a turbulent airflow rushed from the Backlund city area, with a figure pushed by the front end of the airflow rapidly approaching this area, until it stopped beside the others.
The person who came was wearing a white priest's robe and a soft clergy hat, and was a kind and gentle-looking old man. However, if you looked behind the old man, you would see black, metallic-gleaming pipes retracting into his body, immediately letting people know that the old man worshiped the God of Steam and Machinery.
In fact, this old man was Horamick Haydn, the Archbishop of the Backlund diocese of the Church of Steam and Machinery.
Horamick Haydn also surveyed the scene and then frowned:
"It looks like there was a fierce battle here... a high-sequence Hunter pathway Beyonder?"
Just then, a figure suddenly outlined next to Anthony Stevenson. Lin Ruo, who had sent Leonard back to Tingen and returned to the scene, also glanced at the scene and greeted Anthony Stevenson next to him.
"Good day, Your Excellency Anthony. It seems I'm late. What happened here?"
When Lin Ruo spoke, his tone was natural and his attitude was calm, as if he really didn't know anything, and like Anthony Stevenson and others, he had only come over after noticing the commotion.
However, after greeting him, Lin Ruo's gaze fell on Anthony Stevenson, and he almost laughed again.
It wasn't his fault, really. It was because behind Anthony, there was a spirit with long black hair covering its face and a transparent, ethereal lower body, holding his shoulders. Although Lin Ruo knew that this was probably because Anthony Stevenson himself might not have the ability to fly and needed the spirit to hold him up, so that the Archbishop of the Evernight Church wouldn't be the only one standing on the ground while everyone else was flying, it really looked quite funny.
Well, can't laugh, gotta give Anthony some face.
Lin Ruo warned himself in his heart, while also scanning the scene, taking in all the demigods present.
"Anthony, who is this Excellency?" Horamick Haydn next to Anthony asked with some doubt. He could certainly tell that the newcomer seemed to be from the Evernight Church, but he really didn't recognize Lin Ruo.
"This is Your Excellency Lin Ruo, Blessed of the Goddess." Anthony Stevenson first gave a brief introduction to everyone, and then introduced the other people present to Lin Ruo.
That is, Lin Ruo's old acquaintance, Ace of the Storm Church, Horamick of the Machinery Church, whom Lin Ruo had just met today, and Salte of MI9.
"Good day, Your Excellencies Snake, Horamick, and Salte." After listening to Anthony Stevenson, Lin Ruo also greeted the others with a smile, especially noting the person from MI9.
After all, this was the military of Loen, and they might be enemies in the future.
The big shots also gave Lin Ruo a lot of face and greeted him one by one. After all, although they couldn't figure out what sequence Lin Ruo was, even for the sake of the identity of the Blessed of the Evernight Goddess, they had to give him some respect.
After the few people greeted each other, Anthony Stevenson said to Lin Ruo, "Sorry, Your Excellency Lin Ruo, I don't know what happened here either. I just arrived."
"Is that so..." Lin Ruo looked at the ruins left entirely after his battle, and then revealed a thoughtful expression: "There seems to be a remnant of the Hunter pathway's power... Iron Blood Cross Order or Intis?"
Although he was completely making it up, there was a reason why he would make these two guesses. After all, it was well known that the Iron Blood Cross was a group composed of Hunters, and the Intis Republic was even more of a Hunter hotspot.
"It may also be a Hunter pathway's Beyonder item..." Anthony Stevenson said with a smile, not denying Lin Ruo's guess, but just adding to it.
"We'll know after investigating." "Spellsinger of God" Ace Snake said, his expression cold, but not directed at the others present, but at the Beyonder who had caused trouble this time.
Naturally, the others had no objections to his proposal, and each used their own methods to begin a preliminary investigation. Soon, the official Beyonders from the major churches also arrived, conducting a more detailed investigation of the ruins after the battle.
During this process, Lin Ruo leisurely watched the show from the sidelines. There was a reason why he would suddenly participate in this matter as the Blessed of the Goddess.
On the one hand, it was to have his official identity as the Blessed of the Goddess endorsed by the other churches, so that it would be much more convenient for him to act using this identity in the future, at least without having to think about proving his identity again. On the other hand, it was to see the subsequent investigation of this matter and see if he could participate in it. If he could participate in it, could he make hidden organizations such as the Aurora Order take the blame?
In addition to this, Lin Ruo also planned to use his identity as the Blessed of the Goddess to make a suggestion to Anthony Stevenson, to see if he could get Hazel into the Nighthawks and educate her properly, so that she would know how high the sky is and how thick the earth is.
—— Lin Ruo did not delete Hazel's memory of her rat teacher. After all, it was a fact that Hazel was a Beyonder, and with Lin Ruo's fighting style, he also knew that it was unlikely that he would not attract the attention of the authorities. Once an official investigation was launched, the possibility of not discovering Hazel was too small.
However, Lin Ruo was not worried. Although the church's attitude towards wild Beyonders was not good, it also depended on the person. For small girls like Hazel who had decent character, had not done bad things, and were born into nobility, it was almost impossible to arrest her and lock her up in the underground.
Not to mention that Lin Ruo was also there, so it was even more impossible.
I hope that girl can maintain her arrogance after being educated about the common sense of the Beyonder world... Lin Ruo thought, and the corners of his mouth curled up.
He glanced again at the busy official Beyonders in front of him, and smiled even more happily.
Moreover, honestly speaking, it was really exciting to have just finished causing trouble and then return to the scene as an official Beyonder.
