Salomon did not expect that Luca would call in a few hours, but he did not doubt the clues provided by the reporter, because this guy would do anything to find out the truth now.
After he hung up the phone, he looked up at Rodin. Luca's voice was so loud that even Rodin, who was standing behind the bar, could hear him. The bar owner wearing sunglasses gave Salomon a chocolate sundae and reached for it.
Point to the remote control in the bar - behind the bar is the bar owner's territory, and customers are not allowed to reach out casually. This is the rule of Hell's Gate Bar.
"I am now standing in front of the Izavel Tower in Vigrid, the holy land of Ragnarism. It is said that this year is the day when the main god of Ragnarism, 'Creator Jubileus', comes once every 500 years. Believers from all over the world hold events
We are celebrating Easter and cheering for it." The small LCD TV hanging on the wall in the bar switched to the WNN world news channel. The host's voice was explaining. The screen was full of Ragnar believers wearing gold-rimmed white robes, holding hands with each other.
With their hands on their chests, facing the same direction; then the screen turned, and the screen was full of Ragnar priests. Their clothes were also white, but there were no hoods. On the front of the tall and wide white hats, there were
Golden sun logo.
Fake news! Salomon curled his lips.
The history of the Ragnar Order may not have passed its second five hundred years, and this Easter may have been at short notice, but those Ragnar believers still believed in it. A young religion actually has such influence,
This is probably why the Supreme Mage decided to conceal the existence of gods and demons, otherwise the fragile human mind cannot resist the temptation of faith. Although some young people do not believe in religion, they will also forward some superstitious things on social media. This
It is also a manifestation of filling the gap in faith.
Faith is like poison! This is Salomon's idea, so he will not believe in anything, and he cannot stand the feeling that his mind is controlled by others.
"But on the other hand, people continue to commit suicide in order to praise the coming of the Lord God. Yesterday, the high priest of Ragnar Cult and more than 20 believers committed suicide collectively, and the church where their bodies were placed was destroyed by unknown persons. Countries regard this incident as an abnormal situation
, asking the Ragnarians to remain calm."
What appeared on the screen was the church that Bayonetta and Salomon had gone to last night, but perhaps because the church was in such terrible condition now, the pictures shown on the TV were of the church when it was still intact.
"This is none of my business. It was the big guy who did it." Bayonetta put her chin on her hands and said, "Is that why the little wild cat asked us to watch TV?"
Salomon shook his head, "Maybe it hasn't been played yet. You know, even the live broadcast is delayed, maybe because the signal in this demiplane is not good. Mr. Rodin, I am definitely not speaking ill of you.
,please don’t take away my ice cream.”
"The president of the Izavel Group, who actually controls this religious city, appears in front of the public for the first time."
Rodin offered Bayonetta an apple martini cocktail at the right time, "There is a lot of commotion in the human world."
"It's really too stupid." Enzo's chubby hand, covered with jewel rings, was waving whiskey, and his cigar had been forcibly extinguished by Rodin when Salomon walked in. He said,
"Sacrificing your life to bring the gods back? But it's only because of these fools that my business has been successful."
"Aha? Are you paid to organize funerals for others? You are not a good person." Rodin fully expressed his disdain for Enzo. But Enzo was not angry at Rodin's mood. Salo, on the other hand, was not angry at all.
Meng was very satisfied with Enzo. Although this guy was fat, greedy for money, and liked to show off his wealth, his spirit was free and had not been kidnapped by religion.
So he was very moved and ordered another sundae and charged it to Enzo's account - Rodin also welcomed this behavior. Enzo always likes to owe wine money, and this sundae can be regarded as interest. Anyway, a little kindness
Zuo Ye couldn't remember exactly how much he owed Rodan for wine, but it didn't matter if it was more.
"I have always been a good citizen, as long as I have money." The intelligence merchant turned around and said, the huge ruby ring on his little finger still shining in the dim light, "Only people with conscience don't want to deal with these idiots.
Where are the sick believers? Tell me, isn’t what I do charity? Hahaha!”
"Then you should donate money to the church." Bayonetta said while holding the wine glass. Rodin's wine always suited her taste. "Pay me as soon as possible, Enzo."
Although Enzo wanted to resist, he even tried to explain away the fact that Bayonetta hunted angels for entertainment, but he never succeeded, and it was the same this time. He said, "If you hadn't taken the big
The church is a mess, and my reward is more than that! Please think of me, Bayonetta!"
The noisy routine of Hell's Gate Bar didn't last long before it was interrupted again by the sound from the TV. Even though the volume was not loud, the noisy cheers still attracted the attention of everyone in the bar.
"That's him! Badr, the president of the Izavel Group, has finally appeared! Even if we talk about the huge wealth brought by the Izavel Group and the economic development of supporters Vigrid, it is not exaggerated. The Badel who surrounds the believers can't be overstated.
Del, maybe he can solve these suicides..."
The camera moved to a building of unknown location. Based on the decorative style in the picture, those golden ray patterns that imitated the sun's rays, anyone could tell that this was a building of the Ragnar Order. Then the camera switched,
A white platform appears in the picture. This platform has a shape that looks like the legs of a backrest chair have been removed. The white surface is decorated with many golden lines; at the highest point of the platform, there are two golden rings and a half.
Circular rings are nested from small to large. Many golden spears protrude from the center of the circle. The spears on the X axis and the positive Y axis are the longest, and the second longest ones are two rays at an angle of 45 degrees.
In addition, there are some golden spikes of different lengths.
A man in a gorgeous white robe is standing on the stage.
"That's the guy! He's the one who paid this time!" Enzo pointed at the TV and shouted. The person in the picture was even dressed in a more religious style than Salomon, with a white high-collar robe with red piping.
There is even a decoration of a white peacock with a purple crown on the shoulder. The peacock head is on the left shoulder, the peacock tail is on the right shoulder, and there is a sun-shaped watch on the right chest. Enzo said, "This man is the leader of the Ragnar cult.
He has not shown his face in front of the public yet. But this Easter he appears once every 500 years. Some people say that they don’t know if he is still alive after the last Easter.”
Salomon narrowed his eyes - of course Baldur was still alive 500 years ago, because he was the Lumen Sage and possessed the power of an angel. With such power, it would be easy for a person to live for 500 years. On TV
This guy with his white hair combed back and wearing a golden mask on the left half of his face is the Baldur mentioned by the Supreme Mage.
"What the Izavel Group possesses is the most cutting-edge technology that is not seen in this ancient religious city. The believers regard these as miracles." Enzo's explanation continued. But he said next
The words were all things that Bayonetta already knew, such as the information that Baldr was the last of the sage clan.
Duplicate information is worthless! This makes Enzo's plan to delay repayment fail again.
"Did he pay Bayonetta's reward? If that's the case, yesterday's church might have been a trap, and the powerful angel might have been sent by him." Salomon asked, "But Bayonetta was unscathed.
!If it was to capture Bayonetta, shouldn't he send more powerful guys?"
"We don't know what Badr is thinking," Rodin said. "So far, we can only take action based on the situation."
Salomon nodded and sighed, "This is the only way. I will return to Karma Taj and report this matter to the Supreme Mage. During this period of time before coming up with the exact solution... Bayoney
Tower, you'd better hunt less angels, no one knows if it's Balder's trap. Bayonetta?"
The witch seemed to have lost consciousness, and then Salomon, who had a keen hearing, could even hear a "pop" sound, and she took out a tube of lipstick wrapped in brass from the bottomless ravine on her chest. Bayonetta twisted
With a red mouth, a cold air filled the air,
"Is this what you took with you when you woke up?" Rodan asked.
"right."
"Doesn't this thing remind you of anything?"
"yes."
"You can show it to the mystic." Rodan pointed to Salomon beside him, "I don't know the spell above, but maybe there are clues in Kamathaj's library. If you know this thing
Maybe I can recall something."
Bayonetta is now more and more interested in this Baldr. Because just now, Baldr suddenly looked at the news footage in the distance, as if he was looking at the witch in front of the TV. And he also said something, then
No one but Bayonetta heard the words. Those words caused a series of memories to flood into Bayonetta's mind - she seemed to be in a tower and forest in flames, with the scorching heat surrounding her;
I saw a man in white floating in the air, with many peacock feathers sticking out from behind, and those feathers that fell to the world like white snow.
"I'm waiting for you, dear daughter..."
The witch was facing a formidable enemy. But everything on the screen was as usual. It seemed that the man named Badr did not turn around and say those words. Everything was Bayonetta's illusion. Except for her, no one else watching the TV had any idea.
Any anomalies are found.
Daughter? Why did Baldur call her that? Salomon said that there was only one person left in the sage and witch clans, but due to the scarcity of information, no one knew whether Baldur and Bayonetta were related.
"I'm going home. My sons said they want to celebrate my birthday!" Enzo drank all the wine in his glass and stood up from his seat.
"You're not going to pay today either?"
"This is your birthday gift to me! Thank you, Rodin." Enzo walked out swaggeringly, "If there is any work entrustment, I will contact you!"
