Doctor of Science's Journey into Another World

Chapter 621: Secret Meeting of the Demon Hunting Division

"There's only one reason!"

Matthew stood up, smoothed his hair, and said solemnly, "The headquarters of the Earth God Church has changed. It has become a military factory of the Seth Empire. They specialize in enchanting and blessing magical weapons for the expansion ambitions of Emperor Otu!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the huge meeting place immediately became boiling with the priests whispering to each other and discussing the matter. The vast majority of opinions were criticizing the Earth God Cult.

Expansion means aggression, and aggressive wars will lead to massive bloodshed and sacrifice, which is contrary to the teachings of the Cult of the Moon Goddess. Therefore, the followers of the Cult of the Moon Goddess are basically anti-war and hate all forms of war.

If what Matthew said is true, then the plan to destroy the headquarters church of the Earth God Cult will receive a lot of support, and Bai Hao also thinks that this is indeed something that should be done.

After all, this can greatly delay the time for the Seth Empire army to invade the Beast Forest, which is a disguised way of helping the orcs.

However, even though he thought so, Bai Hao still stood up and said, "According to reliable information, the news Archbishop Matthew just said should be just a rumor, a rumor maliciously spread by people with ulterior motives, attempting to sow discord between our sect and the Earth God Sect..."

Bai Hao said a lot of things, in short, he rejected the attack plan. With his eloquent speech and high reputation, most of the priests in the meeting were convinced.

Of course the most important thing is that Matthew did not refute Bai Hao. She just said that she might have believed the rumors, and then she sat down obediently and even cast a dissenting vote in the subsequent vote.

In the subsequent meetings, no one mentioned the attack on the church headquarters of the Earth God Cult again. The priests all regarded it as a minor incident in the meeting and no one took it seriously.

At night, in the underground headquarters of the Demon Hunting Bureau, Bai Hao listened to Chonglou's daily report as usual and then left. However, he did not go to the experimental field to conduct experiments on the improvement of the magic patterns. Instead, he waited quietly in a meeting room of the Demon Hunting Bureau.

Not long after, Olmia pushed the door open and followed by a woman wearing a black hood. She was tall, broad-boned, and plump, with very obvious features of the northern Central Plains.

"Lord Holy Son."

The woman took off her hood, revealing a cold face. It was Archbishop Matthew. She bowed respectfully. The close communication with Bai Hao made her heart surge. It was a comfort from the depths of her soul and the pleasure that came from the great satisfaction of her faith.

"Tell me about it," Bai Hao returned the salute and motioned Matthew to sit down. He said in a gentle voice with some expectation, "Tell me how you got the information about the Earth God Church's headquarters church being turned into a military factory."

Matthew nodded, then looked at Bai Hao and said slowly: "It's Duke Selmei. She is a loyal believer of my religion and my good friend. At the same time, she is also very close to the royal family of the empire..."

Matthew's information came from Duke Selme of the Seth Empire, a benevolent noble who did not like the empire's aggressive behavior.

Selmei accidentally revealed this matter during a drunken conversation with Matthew, and she also heard this information from hearsay at a cocktail party.

The Earth God Cult has indeed gone a bit erratic in recent years, not only interfering in politics but even extending its hand into the military field. Rather than a sect serving God, they are now more like a profit-seeking organization.

Of course, the most fundamental thing is that what the Earth God Cult did caused a conflict of ideas with Bai Hao, a conflict of faith with the Bright Moon Goddess Cult, and a conflict of interests with the Campbell Territory.

Although the authenticity of the intelligence still needed to be verified, Bai Hao didn't want to go through so much trouble, so he just destroyed their headquarters church first and then investigated and collected evidence in the ashes.

Time is running out, the Seth Empire will soon invade the Beast Forest, and there is not enough time to investigate.

"Olmia, Matthew, gather some trustworthy priests from the Seth Empire. We must immediately formulate a plan to attack the church at the headquarters of the Earth God Cult, and it must be implemented within ten days at the latest!"

After receiving the order, the two of them immediately began to communicate with each other with their eyes closed. Neither Olmia nor Matthew doubted Bai Hao's decision. In fact, at the meeting this afternoon, Matthew also followed Bai Hao's telepathic orders.

Attacking other religious headquarters churches cannot be discussed openly at the meeting, even if it is necessary, because it is not in line with the doctrinal guidance of the Moon Goddess Sect.

Besides, there were many people in the venue, including nearly a thousand high-ranking priests from all over the Central Plains. Although they were all pastors of various churches and trustworthy, it was difficult to guarantee that the news of the attack would not leak out.

Besides, there aren't many people who actually implement this matter, so there's no need to bring it up for discussion and make a big fuss about it, letting so many people know about it to avoid any unexpected events. It's better to do it in a secret organization privately.

For now, the Moon Goddess Sect should still maintain a gentle and honest appearance. This will make it easier for Bai Hao to make arrangements everywhere and reduce the vigilance of the Shuangyang Alliance.

When wars break out in the future and the alliances completely fall out, it won't be too late for the Cult of the Moon Goddess to show its fangs.

Afterwards, more than a dozen priests came into the conference room one after another. Most of them were priests from the Seth Empire. Bai Hao also saw Priest Ford, who was the most excited today. The church under his jurisdiction was the closest to the headquarters church of the Earth God Religion.

Ford was a little excited when he saw Bai Hao. He had known for a long time that the highest holy position of the sect had been replaced. He immediately saluted Bai Hao with other priests.

This was the first time that Bai Hao attended the annual church service of the Bright Moon Goddess Sect. Therefore, these priests from the Seth Empire had the opportunity to meet Bai Hao, and it was also the first time that they were in the same room at such close range.

"Oh, I didn't expect those rumors to be true," Ford trembled with tears in his eyes. "Being in close contact with Lord Saint really makes me feel the sublimation of faith. It's Lord Olivia personally soothing our souls..."

It was not just Ford, other priests of the Seth Empire were like this. Since Seth people were generally tall, the scene quickly turned into a group of burly men crying.

Faced with this kind of situation, Bai Hao has long been able to deal with it skillfully. Almost every strange priest he has met over the years would do the same, and his physical condition is as strong as ever.

After a while of comforting, Bai Hao waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's discuss the attack plan. The Earth God Cult must pay the price for their transgressions."
