Things have deteriorated to such an extent that Gallo couldn't help but sigh, the goddess's teachings are so correct...
Just imagine, if everyone in the city could be humble and cautious, and be prepared for danger in times of peace, how could a ritual barrier of this scale be formed?
Life in the Innocence City is too stable...
"Actually, if you think about it carefully, this matter had already begun to take shape when we were dealing with the group of cultists and the archaeologist Sandro..."
"It's all because the opponent died too quickly and didn't even alert me..."
The old bishop was stunned for a moment and then said:
"Perhaps in the beginning, it wasn't the Tree of Moros, or the Abyss Demon King Cyrus who wanted to come. This was all a pretense. From the beginning to the end, it was Eas himself who was responsible for the consequences. He is the god in charge of lies...
.”
Gallo thought about it carefully and asked a question:
"Since this barrier has already been formed and Eas can descend from the gods, why have you been holding back?"
"Is there anything in this city that he can be afraid of? Or is he waiting for a better time?"
"Does He want to come to the Harvest Festival?"
Whenever life is at stake like this, Gallo's thinking can always return to the state it was in when he helped Undine investigate the case, becoming sharper and more flexible.
"So we still have some time, right?"
He asked again.
The old bishop was stunned for a moment, thought about it carefully, and said quickly:
"There are indeed some opportunities..."
"I will go to Bishop Yeck and ask him to activate the 'Wall of Sighs' immediately, and at the same time send people to capture that Winner."
Gallo nodded and said:
"Then I'll try to see if I can destroy the barrier directly!"
"The sage's notebook didn't say that this barrier cannot be attacked, right?"
The old bishop lowered his head and looked through it again. Indeed, he did not say this...
"But now that the barrier has been formed, Eas can directly bring down the power. If you attack rashly like this..."
But Gallo looked fearless, with a small wooden hammer in his left hand and a meteor hammer in his right hand, and said impassionedly:
"How will you know this kind of thing if you don't try it?"
"Although I am insignificant in front of the evil god, I still have the blood, courage, friendship, love, hope and possibility!"
"And the protection of the goddess!"
The old bishop was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to refute...
So just like that, the two started the operation overnight.
Gallo first took the old bishop to Bishop Yeck's residence: it was not far from Misseran's house.
Then, he drove himself to a node marked on the map.
After Gallo and Amiya left, the old bishop walked out of the hidden alley where he got off the bus, smoothed his clothes, and walked towards the two crusaders in charge of the night watch.
The two Crusaders suddenly became vigilant and pointed their spears at the strange old man.
The old bishop just smiled, released a magical spell, and said generously:
"I came to visit Bishop Yeck and have something important to report."
The two crusaders were stunned for a moment, their eyes full of confusion, and then they immediately moved out of the way, and even took the initiative to lead the old bishop to the door of Bishop Yeck's bedroom.
But before the old bishop knocked on the door, he heard a shout from inside:
"who is it?!"
Then, the door opened automatically. Bishop Yeck, wearing pajamas and a long nightcap with a ball of fur hanging from the tip of his hat, was standing behind the door, holding two balls of unceasingly moving balls in his hands.
Holy Flame.
The old bishop sniffed the fluctuations of the holy flame. It was okay, but a little weaker than Gallo's...
"We apologize for my hasty visit due to an emergency situation."
The old bishop said and walked into the bedroom.
Bishop Yeck also saw his face clearly and asked in confusion:
"Lord Yoro, is that you?"
"Didn't you already..."
But he only said half of what he said. He immediately shook his head and corrected himself:
"No...no, I recognized the wrong person...are you the bishop of the Miya sect?"
After saying that, Bishop Yeke also relaxed, dispersed the holy flame in his hand, and asked curiously:
"What urgent matter do you have for me? Has Gallo found another woman outside?"
"No, Gallo is still sleeping at home. I'm looking for you because it's a matter of life and death for the entire Innocence City..."
The old bishop didn't waste any more nonsense and immediately told Bishop Yeck the news that Eas was about to descend.
After hearing this, Bishop Yeck turned pale with fright...
At the same time, Gallo also rushed to the location marked on the map with lightning speed.
This is the mansion of a wealthy businessman, and several magic networks intersect here. According to Lilian Luo, this should be a key node.
As for the object that serves as a node, according to Lilian Luo who sneaked into the mansion, it was a sculpture, which seemed to be an ancestor of the wealthy businessman? Because few people would do such a thing, it left a deep impression on her.
"Wait for me here and don't let anyone else get close to me."
Gallo first gave instructions to Amiya.
Amiya's dark red eyes suddenly lit up, and she touched her huge fists hard in front of her chest, making a show of gearing up.
Gallo then sneaked into the mansion confidently and boldly.
Because it is a mansion in a wealthy area of the city, and the security of the Innocence City has always been very good, there are no guards here. Apart from the owner of the mansion, a knight named Shandu, there are only some servants.
The mansion was very large and had many rooms. Gallo tried to search for it, and found out that the owner should be a sculpture lover or a sculpture dealer. There were all kinds of sculptures everywhere in the residence. Who knew which one belonged to him?
Ancestor?
Gallo had no choice but to use the power of insight to examine the entire mansion and look at the sculptures one by one.
In the end, not even the insight into the divine spell was found to be strange at all...
"Was it hidden by Eas using the power of lies?"
"This evil god is so cunning. Since he is an evil god, why do he still engage in such hidden activities?"
Gallo cursed in displeasure.
However, the magic of insight helped him find the bedroom of the owner of the mansion, so he broke into the door and forcibly woke up Sir Shandu who was still sleeping.
"You...who are you!"
Sir Shandu was immediately horrified. He took a closer look at the appearance of the strange man in front of him and recognized that this was the frightened Skull Crusher.
"No... don't kill me! I've never done anything bad. At most, I just played with women. Please don't kill me!"
"Shh... be quiet, I'm not here to kill you."
Gallo whispered.
"Then...then what do you want to do? Do you want money? I'll give it, I'll give it..."
Sir Shandu breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately heard the Skullcrusher on the opposite side continue to say:
"Take me to meet your ancestors!"
Sir Shandu's complexion, which had just calmed down, suddenly turned pale again...
Didn’t you promise not to kill me?

That’s it for today’s update…
Let’s talk about what will be released tomorrow. It will be released at 12 noon. If nothing happens, I will update 2 chapters of 3,000 words, totaling 6,000 words, and then update a 3K chapter in the afternoon, totaling 9K words.
There is no way, I also want to celebrate the New Year...
Of course, if the data on the shelves is decent and everyone is very enthusiastic, I will work overtime in the evening to see if I can get more out.
Although it is too much, I still hope everyone can support it...
Finally, thank you to Rest and Relaxation for your generous tip.
