"It seems that your method is very effective." Looking at the dozen invitations in front of her, Sylvia handed the wine glass in her hand to Leo, then picked up an invitation and looked at it.

Said: "Invitation letter from the Plant Species Research Society? Couldn't they have sent it to the wrong place?"

Leo shook his head and said: "In their minds now, I am a foreign scholar who has enough money to give out large sums of sponsorship at will. There is nothing to lose for them by submitting an invitation letter. If they can get from me

If they get sponsorship here, they will make a profit."

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

Leo took the invitation, looked at it, and asked: "I can understand the investment purposes of other research societies. After all, the projects are related to occultism and the church, but this invitation letter from the Costume and Customs Research Society..."

"The president of this seminar is the bishop of the Joyous Church in Cape West Point." Sylvia explained.

After hearing this, Leo hesitated and said, "Is that the church founded by the superior of the abyss?"

"It's not clear yet. You'll have to get in touch to find out." Sylvia shook her head and said.

This world suspended in mid-air is too close to the abyss, and the world itself can be said to be riddled with holes, making it completely defenseless against higher-level foreign beings. If it weren’t for the extremely special laws of the world, it would be especially vulnerable to those coming from the abyss.

With extremely strong reverse erosion power, this place may have already become a paradise for abyssal creatures.

However, even so, there are still some abyssal superiors trying to enter this world and corrupt it. Some have failed completely, such as the one trapped on the top of the mountain. Some seem to have succeeded, but in fact they have failed, such as now.

The happy one mentioned by Leo and Sylvia.

The Church of Joy is a church that only spreads in the Old World. Not only does it not have any missionary activities in the New World, even books about Joy have not appeared in the New World. Leo and Sylvia also met them accidentally.

It was only during a sermon ceremony of the Joyful Church that I learned about the existence of such a church, and the sensitive Sylvia also smelled a faint aura of the abyss from the clergy of the Joyful Church.

Because of this, they collected some information related to Happy People.

Speaking of which, the Church of Joy is a very special church. At the beginning, the Church of Joy appeared in the world as an underground church, and for a long time it was regarded as a heretic by most churches, and its believers were

After being caught, they were either burned to death or hanged, which was no different from other heretics.

It wasn't until one day that all the churches unanimously removed the Joyers from their heretical lists and allowed the Joyers Church to preach openly, that the Joyers Church became one of the official churches in the world, and this day was also known as

The Joyful believers call it the Day of Glory, corresponding to the Joyful Festival legally mandated by the Joyful Church.

As for why other churches suddenly gave up their heretical ban on the Church of Joy, no one who studies religious history has an answer. Even other churches don’t know what happened. Only the people involved at the time know. This has become a problem.

A special mystery in the history of religion.

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

Leo and Sylvia were also interested in this huge mystery of the Church of Joy, so they were also considering looking for opportunities to contact the top leaders of the Church of Joy. Unexpectedly, before they officially took action, the Church of Joy would send the message themselves.

Came to your door.

Therefore, Leo quickly wrote several replies, five of which were answered by himself, while Sylvia was left to deal with the Church of Joy.

After writing the reply letter, Leo handed the reply letter to the temporarily hired housekeeper and asked him to send people to these societies. Then he turned around and asked: "How are Penny and Joan?

"

"Very good. The few commissions I have received recently are all very difficult ones. They were completed perfectly and have already made a name for themselves." Sylvia smiled with satisfaction and said, "You helped Qiao An with the disguise.

It's also perfect, he has met Priest Hans several times in the past few days, and Priest Hans didn't recognize that the person he was talking to face to face was the person he wanted to find most."

When they first arrived at the Port of Cape Guia, the attitude shown by the coordinator of Halesa's delivery mission towards Qiao An coming to the Old World showed that there must be something between this coordinator and the witch doctor who implanted Qiao An with alien god-like cells.

Contact, and Qiao An's particularity and importance in this organization are higher than Leo expected.

The subsequent secret search of the city led by the contact confirmed his suspicion, and during the search, some priests who participated in the search were able to easily find Qiao An's location, which made Leo couldn't help but suspect Qiao An.

His body contains some kind of special energy wave, and the opponent can use this energy wave to find Qiao An's precise location.

Therefore, after Leo avoided a search, he made some disguises for Qiao An, using the rune magic circle to cover up and change Qiao An's overall temperament. Even Qiao An's appearance was changed through some special methods.

As a result, the search personnel were never able to find Qiao An. Now, even if Qiao An appeared in front of the contact person, the person in front of him could not see that the person in front of him was the person he had been looking for for many days.

After deciding to temporarily live in Cape Guia Port for a period of time, Leo did not let Joan and Penny just perform some special training every day, but asked them to open a quasi-detective agency in the city while getting familiar with their own powers.

Practicality in commissioned tasks, while assisting Sylvia in collecting information in the city, and their first intelligence collection task was to collect the identity information of the contact.

This task is not difficult, because the contact person is also a well-known figure in the city, Priest Hans Venier, the senior priest of the Mother of the Night Church, and now the assistant to the dean of the Holy Prayer House in Cape Guia Port.

, is one of the right-hand assistants of the dean, and his other position is the captain of the Heretic Hunting Team in Cape Cape West Port. Under his command are thirty-three Original Sin Knights and Heretic Hunters from different churches, which can be regarded as

The force with the most extraordinary power in the entire Cape Guia Port.

It is precisely because of the identity of Priest Hans that Leo has some doubts that the alien god-like cells derived from the flesh and blood of the True Eye in Qiao An and others may have come from the church organization in the Old World, and the purpose may be to

Through the special power of the Eye of Truth, it is easier to find those hidden heretical extraordinary beings.

Sylvia's original idea was to arrest Priest Hans directly and ask all the secrets from him, but Leo also felt that although this method was crude and direct, it was the most effective, so he agreed.

When this method was implemented, Leo discovered that Priest Hans had more than one protective mark of the Mother of Night, and each mark contained extraordinary power. If he did it rashly, he might

Alarmed the entire Church of the Mother of Night.

Therefore, Leo and the others had to give up the direct but effective method and instead use other roundabout methods to contact this Hans priest and other people who may be members of his organization.

Leo disguised himself as a foreign scholar and began to appear at various academic gatherings to earn fame and invest in some academic research. He gradually integrated into the academic circle of Cape Opia Port, starting with Ronco Byronville.

The reason why they chose Ronco Byronville is because they have determined that Ronco Byronville should also be a member of the secret organization, because in the case of Joan, Priest Hans had contact with Ronco Byronville

, just because the conversation took place in a forbidden room full of various divine powers in the Holy Prayer Courtyard, Leo's spiritual network could not penetrate, so I don't know what the content of their conversation was, but after that, Priest Hans stopped

Judging from the large-scale search operation, it should be related to Qiao An.

As for Sylvia, she returned to her old profession and began to establish her underground intelligence network in the city. This was something she was very familiar with. Coupled with the powerful power she now possesses,

In less than a month, she has become the queen of underground intelligence in the Port of Cape See. Basically all the intelligence organizations in Cape See are under her control, but these organizations do not know that they are controlled by one person.

After living together, they are still attacking each other based on their past relationship, so the appearance of Sylvia, the queen of underground intelligence, did not cause much fluctuation in the market.

Nearly a month has passed since the day they disembarked. Leo and Sylvia have perfectly integrated into the society of Cape Guia Port during this month, although some of their behaviors are different from those of the locals.

There are still some differences, but the identity of a foreign scholar can be used to cover up the past, and the characteristics of words and deeds from the New World are not as obvious as when they just got off the ship.

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

For example, the church in the Old World has very strict control over extraordinary powers. Basically, all people who are publicly known to have extraordinary powers are captured by the church and trained into Knights of Original Sin.

Even if there are some survivors, these survivors do not dare to reveal traces of their extraordinary power and are always pretending to be ordinary people.

Correspondingly, due to environmental reasons, some accidents related to extraordinary powers that occurred here far exceeded the New World. Only Leo and the others had temporarily stayed here for less than a month.

There have been more than a dozen accidents involving extraordinary powers.

Most of these accidents are just minor accidents, such as a sudden abnormal energy in a certain place causing some supernatural accidents such as a haunted house, etc.

There are also a few accidents that are considered major accidents, such as a space rift leading to another world appearing out of thin air, and certain creatures from another world entering this world.

This type of accident involving supernatural power is without exception jointly established by the church and the local government. A secret organization that specializes in handling such accidents is responsible for handling it. However, this organization has a small number of members and cannot handle it at all, so it is

With the emergence of private organizations, such as certain detectives or investigators.

These types of detectives and investigators are ordinary people. Even if they are extraordinary, they only have perceptions that are beyond ordinary people. They do not possess any special powerful power. The reason why they can deal with such accidents involving extraordinary power is because of that.

The official secret organization will regularly sell them items involving supernatural powers that can also be used by ordinary people, such as some kind of shotgun ammunition that has been blessed by magic.

Leo discovered this, so he asked Joan and Penny to disguise themselves as a brother and sister who lost their families due to supernatural accidents, and came here to open a detective agency specifically for supernatural accidents.

The official secret organization was very tolerant of private organizations like the detective agency. It only met Joan and Penny once two days before the detective agency opened, verified their identities, and then secretly observed them.

The main purpose of checking the two people's abilities was to determine whether they possessed extraordinary power. Leo had already anticipated this in advance, so he banned their power.

Finally, after some inspections, the official organization confirmed that both of them were ordinary people, but their perception of extraordinary power was slightly stronger than that of ordinary people. They could always find clues to extraordinary accidents as soon as possible, so the two detectives

They were placed on their support list, and some tools and weapons used to deal with paranormal accidents were regularly sold to the two.

Moreover, because of their outstanding abilities, they soon participated in a major paranormal accident related to a rift in space. This rift was related to the abyss, and the people responsible for handling the matter this time were Priest Hans and his

The heretic hunting team led by Qiao An and other non-governmental organizations are only around to help prevent others from intruding.

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

However, Qiao An's disguise is not perfect. Leo can only cover up Qiao An's temperament and change his appearance, but cannot change what he already has inside, such as the delusion that already exists in him.

The Divine Power Seal of the Heart and the Church Knight Swordsmanship of the Church of the False Heart.

It is conceivable that as long as Joan dares to take action in front of other church knights, he will definitely be recognized as being related to the Church of False Heart, and his identity will be exposed. Therefore, Leo changed the weapons used by Joan and Penny from the knights from the beginning.

The sword and hunter's bow were replaced with special short-barreled shotguns, reducing the risk of their exposure.

Now everything is proceeding step by step. All Leo needs to do is throw out the bait and let the fish take the bait. In addition to his identity as a foreign scholar, this bait also has a document that will be published in a certain professional academic journal.
