"I object, all preparations are not done at all. Our lantern monks are not enough. Even if you recover the city of Land, the existing lantern monks will not be able to purify the city. Then those things will grow again." In a room in the Temple of Redemption at the top of the volcano, the goddess of civilization said to his colleagues around him with great dissatisfaction: "You simply want to take advantage of the opportunity to recover the city to let those people in the outer city die and reduce the population in the city a lot."

In this not-so-large room, there were three people sitting next to a triangle table with the Holy Emblem of the Lord of Redemption on the table. The three of them were the real controllers of the city of New Rand and the leaders of the Redemption Church in this city. Although they jointly control the city, they have their own exclusive positions and usually deal with their own affairs. There are few situations where they gather together to discuss things like they are now.

Outside the room, the subordinates of the three people gathered in an area, chatted quietly, and looked at the door of the room from time to time, as if they were waiting for the discussion in the room to have a clear result.

"I did this for New Rand," in the room, facing the accusation of the Goddess of Civilization, the Goddess of Victory seemed very calm. She emphasized that she gave such a proposal not selfishly, and then retorted it: "You also know how much grain storage is left in the city now. If you want to catalyze new seeds, it will take a certain amount of time. If you want to supply the grain storage to the whole city and the camp garrisons outside, you can't survive this period of time. At most, all the food will be consumed in a month. There will be no food supply at that time, so it will be solid.

Faith is useless. At that time, the hearts of the people in our city will collapse. Those outside who shout about redemption dare to do anything in order to eat in one bite. At that time, the city will usher in a civil war. No matter what the final result is, Newland will be ruined." As she said, she stood up from the chair, supported her hands on the table, leaned forward slightly, and pressed towards the goddess of civilization from a downward angle, and said: "Instead of everyone holding her to die together, it is better to reduce the population and lengthen the time spent on food."

The priest of the civilization goddess waited for the other party in anger, and stood up from the chair, saying, "You are so crazy, have you ever thought about it? Your approach is to sacrifice to the things in the old city in disguise. After receiving so many sacrifices, how much time will those things grow? Have you ever thought about it? At that time, how much time will we need to take to make up for this gap, ten years, twenty years, or another sixty years..."

"So what about sixty years," said the Priest of the Victory Goddess in a deep voice: "Although it's a little longer, at least we still have the chance to fulfill our sacred vows. But if this city was destroyed by the civil war due to food reasons, do you think we still have the chance to rebuild the city?" As she said that, her eyes shifted from the Priest of the Priest of the Civilization Goddess to the Priest of the Priest of the Lady Goddess who had never spoken, and continued: "It's impossible, we can't rebuild New Land. We will be transferred back to the Holy City and stay in the Holy Monastery forever as a quiet nun."

Faced with the aggressiveness of the Goddess of Victory, the Goddess of Civilization was a little unable to withstand the question. He was speechless and did not continue to refute. She also knew that although the other party's proposal had disadvantages, it was also the fastest and best way to solve the problem in the city. As the Goddess of Civilization, she mastered the daily government affairs in the city, and she was also responsible for the distribution and storage of food. So she knew better than anyone that the food shortage in the city is now very serious. If some extraordinary means are not used to solve it, it will be difficult to have a chance to recover the day when the food is completely exhausted. However, personal morality and her beliefs do not allow her to use the method of the Goddess of Victory to solve the food shortage facing the city now.

The method of the goddess of victory was very simple. It was to use the regain plan as an excuse to hold a victorious march to recover Land City in advance. The external saying was an exercise, but after arriving at the location, it turned out to be a real recovery of Land City. In this case of insufficient preparation, the result was doomed, and a large number of casualties could alleviate the current food pressure in the city. At that time, only a person with enough weight would need to bear the responsibility for this failure. Such a candidate is easy to find. There are many corrupt officials in the inner city, and you can pick out a few of them. The reason why the three priests allowed these borers to exist was that they were intended to use them as abandoned children when necessary.

However, quelling public anger is not the main problem of this plan. The real problem is as mentioned before by the Goddess of Civilization. A large number of people were injured and killed in the city of Land, which will inevitably cause the giant vines entrenched there to change again. At that time, it will be more difficult for them to recover Land, and they may not be able to complete this oath task in their entire lives.

But if this plan is not implemented, the situation in the city will only continue to deteriorate. In the end, we can only watch the newly established New Rand collapse step by step. This is something that the three priests absolutely do not want to see.

After a moment of silence, the Priest of the Civilized Goddess suddenly spoke and suggested: "We may be able to ask the Holy City of Redemption."

"No." Before the Victory Goddess Priest had time to express his objection, the Priest of the Lady Goddess Priest who had not spoken since the beginning had already opposed the proposal, and emphasized his tone and repeated: "We must never ask for help from the Holy City of Redemption. We can only solve all problems ourselves."

Although the three goddess priests in the room were of equal status, in fact, those who knew the Redemption Society knew that the Lantern Goddess was the leader of the three goddesses, and the status of the Lantern Goddess was relatively higher than that of the other two, and they knew more. So when she expressed her opposition so clearly, the other two goddess priests couldn't help but look at her, as if waiting for the other party to explain the reasons for the objection.

The priest of the Lantern Goddess was silent, as if he was unwilling to tell his thoughts to the other two colleagues, but the other two had no intention of letting her go, and kept staring at her without saying a word.

Faced with this situation, the priest of the Lantern Goddess couldn't help but frown, a look of hesitation appeared on his face, and finally let go and explained: "I have the exact news that the three of us are on the list of the trial of redemption."

Hearing this, the other two goddess priests were all stunned, and even their breathing stopped. The expression on their faces could not tell whether they were joy, excitement or worry, which was very complicated in short.

After a while, the Priest of the Goddess of Victory couldn't help but shout at the Priest of the Priest of the Lady, "Are you crazy? You just told us such an important thing now. If you had told us earlier, this would not have happened."

The face of the priest of the civilization goddess also showed a look of dissatisfaction.

The priest of the goddess of the Lantern immediately defended: "I only found out recently. I was like you before."

Hearing her say this, the Priest of the Civilized Goddess immediately thought of something and asked: "Have you asked for help from the Holy City of Redemption?"

The Lord Priest of the Lantern Goddess nodded, acknowledged his colleague's speculation, and said, "The High Priest said that we can provide support, but our trials will be regarded as failure, and the qualification to meet our Lord will be cancelled."

"You can't ask for support." At this moment, the other two goddess priests made their decision at the same time.

After the words were finished, the three goddesses and priests looked at each other, and no one said anything. They all knew very well that in the face of the only chance to meet my Lord in their life, all worries, concerns, and unbearance could be abandoned, and the final decision was no longer necessary to be discussed.

Just as the three goddess priests made a decision and were about to discuss further plans, the civilization goddess priest suddenly stood there as if he had sensed something, then turned around and looked towards the direction of the large library under her management, and a trace of doubt appeared on her face.

"What's wrong?" The other two goddess priests noticed that they were from their colleagues and asked.

The Priest of the Civilization Goddess hesitated for a moment and said, "I seemed to feel it in the big library just now..." As she said that, she stopped again, shook her head, and said, "It should be an illusion, it should be an illusion."

The priest of the Lantern Goddess frowned and said in a deep voice: "Tell me the whole thing, what did you feel in the big library?"

The priest of the civilization goddess replied: "My lord, I feel that my lord seems to be a big library."

"This is impossible." Before the priest of the Lantern Goddess's priest opened his mouth, the Victory Goddess's priest shook his head and said, "Even if my priest comes, he will only appear in the Lantern Temple. He has never appeared outside the Lantern Temple, let alone the large library."

"That's why I feel it's an illusion." The priest of the civilization goddess gave the other party a blank look and said.

"No, you'd better go to the big library to check it out." The Lantern Goddess Priest did not completely deny the feelings of her colleagues, so she gave a proposal, then turned her head and said to the Victory Goddess Priest: "You go back and prepare your plan, and come back to discuss the implementation details tomorrow."

The Priest of the Goddess of Victory did not object, but was slightly puzzled and asked the Priest of the Priest of the Priest of the Lady, "Where are you?"

The Lord of the Lantern Goddess said with a solemn expression: "I want to go back to the temple to pray to my Lord, hoping to get revelation from my Lord."

At the same time, in the big library, Leo had scanned all the books in the library into the brain's database through the Spirit Network. At this moment, he did not organize the materials immediately because another thing attracted his attention.

Just when he took back the spiritual network, he seemed to have triggered some kind of restriction contained in the statue of the goddess of civilization in the hall of the big library, and then a brief energy resonance with it. This energy resonance did not cause any abnormality, nor had any subsequent impact. It felt like two people with good relationships greeted each other after meeting, ordinary and simple.

Leo walked to the statue of the goddess of civilization. Although this statue looked quite different from Sylvia's figure and did not show its appearance, Leo could still feel some intimacy, just like seeing Sylvia himself.

The book held by the Wither is the holy emblem of the goddess of civilization. This holy emblem emits a burst of divine power. This should be the divine power of the goddess of civilization. Although it is divine power, the energy fluctuations generated by the divine power are a little similar to the power of Sylvia's witch. Obviously, the power corresponding to the goddess of civilization comes from the power of the witch.

However, the power that resonated with Leo's power just now was not the divine power of the goddess of civilization, but the holy emblem ring of the Lord of Savior made of alloy metal behind the goddess of civilization. There was another kind of divine power contained in this holy emblem ring. This divine power was something that Leo had never seen before. I think this should be Sylvia's exclusive divine power. He also wanted to know whether the resonance just now was sensed by Sylvia. If it was sensed, then Sylvia should know that he had also come to this world.

Therefore, Leo stood under the statue and did not leave immediately, but waited for a while, wanting to wait for the Holy Emblem of the Lord of Redemption on the statue to react, but disappointed him and there was no reaction.

Leo, who was a little disappointed, was about to turn around and leave when he heard a movement from the entrance of the large library. Then he saw a woman in religious clothes walking in from outside. When the others in the library saw this woman, they stopped what they were doing, saluted to the woman with great respect and called her name.

"The Priest of the Goddess of Civilization." Leo looked at the woman and felt that the woman's body contained a divine power belonging to the goddess of civilization. Obviously, she should be an extraordinary person.

Under the influence of psychic energy, people turned a blind eye to him, and naturally they would not be surprised that he did not salute the city ruler.

Although the main priest of the goddess of civilization is an extraordinary person with divine power, she is not strong enough in front of Leo. Facing Leo's psychic energy, she is no different from others around her, and she also turns a blind eye to Leo.

She walked to the statue of the goddess of civilization, and then used the strange prayer method of covering her face with her hands. The power of the goddess of civilization on the statue resonated with the power of the divine body. This resonance was not just a reaction between extraordinary powers, but also a message was conveyed from the statue to the main priest, so that she could understand what had happened in the big library before.

However, she found that nothing had happened and everything was normal, which made her suspect that the strangeness she felt before might be really just an illusion.

However, she did not know that the divine power that responded to Leo's spiritual energy just now was not the divine power of the goddess of civilization she possessed, but the divine power of the Lord of Redemption. She completely found the wrong direction.

At this time, Leo, who had already achieved his goal, did not continue to stay in the big library and turned around and walked out of the library.
