Chapter 2445 Triggered

“Where’s the letter? I need to perform a routine inspection.”

“This is the letter.”

[Mission Item: Letter]

Description: Letter (Mission item).

Fang Heng took the letter from Norbert and quickly began his inspection.

The envelope bore the unique seal of the Holy Court, but with his current abilities, he could easily open it. Re-sealing it properly would be quite a hassle and would likely be detected.

No matter.

A faint glow appeared in Fang Heng’s palm as he swiftly broke the seal and, in front of everyone, opened the envelope to quickly read the letter.

The contents of the letter were actually very straightforward.

To deal with the soul of the Frostbone Dragon, Purifier Karolina sought to temporarily borrow a holy weapon from Bishop Will of the Holy Court.

The Frostbone Dragon was powerful, but since it was merely a soul body, the Holy Court had methods to specifically counter it.

So this was the reason.

Karolina was quite wary of the Frostbone Dragon and wanted to obtain a targeted holy weapon before taking action.

However, Fang Heng’s brows furrowed as he reached the final paragraphs.

Karolina expressed concern that Fang Heng might remain deep within Frost Hell for an extended period. To handle the extreme cold of Frost Hell, they also sought to borrow a holy weapon from Bishop Will called the warm sun gemstone.

Interesting.

Fang Heng nodded quietly to himself.

He had to admit, Karolina had prepared quite thoroughly.

If she had indeed managed to get her hands on the warm sun gemstone, it would have caused significant trouble for him.

Unfortunately… he had intercepted her plans.

Fang Heng squinted, using his mental strength to erase the last paragraph of the letter.

Norbert and his companions’ eyes grew hazy once more. From their perspective, the bishop’s assistant was merely flipping through the letter repeatedly, seemingly searching for something.

Seeing that the Hell Faram compound eye was about to lose its effect, Fang Heng swiftly re-sealed the letter and returned it to Norbert. “I understand. I will report to the chief guard, and he will return soon.”

Without waiting for Norbert’s reaction, Fang Heng left the lounge again.

Upon exiting the room, Fang Heng saw the two guards outside casting inquiring glances at him. He waved his hand and explained with a smile, “Don’t mind me, I just needed some fresh air.”

…

Norbert had been waiting in the room for over half an hour.

It felt more like imprisonment.

As his patience was wearing thin, the chief guard of the Holy Light Cathedral finally arrived in a hurry with a group of people.

“Bishop Will is currently occupied with very important matters. You’ll need to wait. He will return as soon as possible once his work is done.”

Wait?

All these layers of checks—did they really think they were fools?!

Norbert was already extremely frustrated after countless inspections on the way. He held back his anger and said sternly, “Please expedite this. This is a mission issued by the Holy Realm and it is very urgent. Haven’t you received any notifications?”

“We have already reported to Assistant Officer Mona, and she will arrange for you to meet as soon as possible.”

“Assistant Officer Mona is not the bishop! I need you to report directly to the bishop!”

“Calm down, you will see the bishop.”

The chief guard spoke coldly.

He was also suspicious of Norbert and his group, especially because of the undead aura surrounding them. It was all too obvious.

Fang Heng, however, was not in a hurry at all. After waiting a few more minutes, he suddenly had an idea and looked up at the chief guard, asking, “May I go out and take a look around? I’ve long admired the Holy Light Cathedral and now finally have the chance to visit. I’ve always dreamed of praying in such a holy place. May I?”

“Of course.”

The chief guard, satisfied with Fang Heng’s piety, nodded and stepped aside.

Among all the people, Fang Heng seemed the most pleasant and convincing. He looked like he was truly sent by the divine.

Norbert furrowed his brow and whispered, “Bai Mu, what are you doing?”

“It’s nothing. Just a bit of prayer. It’s an honor to pray in the Holy Light Cathedral as a follower of the Holy Court,” Fang Heng replied casually.

Norbert was left both baffled and irritated.

Seriously? You’re here for a mission and acting like this is a holy pilgrimage?

Norbert could only respond, “Don’t delay. We need to leave as soon as we’ve seen Bishop Will.”

“Of course, no problem.”

Fang Heng smiled inwardly, glancing at the Sage’s Crown in his backpack before leaving the side hall.

The chief guard watched as Fang Heng went to the main hall for his prayer and signaled a subordinate to follow him. Turning back to Norbert and his companions, the chief guard said with undisguised skepticism, “As followers of the Holy Light, you’ve come to the Holy Light Cathedral but haven’t shown any interest in prayer? I really doubt your identities.”

D*mn!

Norbert and his companions felt an urge to spit blood upon hearing this.

And unfortunately, they had no way to refute it.

The seed of doubt had been planted from the beginning, and now it was still taking root and sprouting under Fang Heng’s unintentional actions.

Norbert was fuming internally but knew that arguing with the guards wouldn’t help. He decided to keep his mouth shut. It was better to save his breath for when he met Bishop Will. Then, everything would be clarified, and there was no need to waste words with the guards.

The chief guard smirked slightly.

He had noticed Norbert’s frustration and interpreted it as a sign of exposed pretense.

Meanwhile, Fang Heng, under the discreet watch of a Holy Court guard, arrived at the Great Hall.

Today was a day of prayer.

A large number of believers were gathered in the Great Hall, fervently praying.

Fang Heng, having taken an internal passage, avoided the long lines outside and entered the hall with ease.

In the center of the Great Hall, a statue of God radiated holy light.

As the prayers of the people filled the space, the radiance slowly spread, forming countless specks of light that descended upon the worshippers.

Fang Heng found a good spot facing the statue.

Here we go!

Praying was a pretense; the real task was to complete the mission.

Fang Heng subtly activated the Sage’s Crown in his hand.

Buzz…

The crown emitted a faint glow.

Fang Heng closed his eyes and focused on his prayer.

At that moment, as if in resonance, the golden light in the Great Hall began to converge towards Fang Heng.

Huh?

What’s happening?

The other worshippers quickly noticed Fang Heng’s unusual situation and turned their gazes toward him.

In almost no time, a multitude of holy light spots enveloped Fang Heng. Simultaneously, the Sage’s Crown in his hand began to rapidly dissolve, transforming into countless tiny particles that merged into his body.
