Chapter 454: The Hidden Path

"I always feel that your purpose of returning to the Presbyterian Church is not as simple as you said."

Sabrina, who was sitting on the windowsill with her legs crossed, threw the dagger in her hand, looked at Rachel who was busy in the room, and asked suspiciously.

Rachel opened the old book in front of her, and while reading the words carefully, she said, "Tell me, how did Lawrence endure your suspicion and nagging when he was with you?"

"That fool who likes to go to the theater?" Sabrina sighed slightly and said in a nostalgic tone: "That guy is indeed very bad, but I have to admit that as long as you understand his temper, he is actually a very good person.

The people I get along with...are not like you, you always give me the feeling that you are tempting me to jump into a pit..."

After flipping through the ancient book in her hand, Rachel threw it into the pile of books at her feet, picked up another book from the desk, and began to look at it.

"Sabrina, you and I both have the same purpose. Isn't that enough?" Rachel compared the graphics on the note and drew something quickly with her pen: "After you achieve your purpose, you

and I will finally be free."

Sabrina jumped off the window sill and took a closer look. Rachel's notes had drawn a bunch of symbols and shapes that were difficult to understand.

"What are these?"

Rachel closed her note and asked Sabrina: "Do you believe in God?"

Sabrina took a few steps back and said in a deep voice: "Your question and tone make me feel uncomfortable."

"I don't believe it." Rachel patted the cover of her notebook and said coldly, "I only believe that everything that exists has a reasonable explanation."

"I don't understand more and more. What on earth do you want to say?"

Rachel didn't answer the question, stood up and walked out.

Sabrina quickly followed: "Where are you going?!"

Rachel opened the door slightly, pointed to the two masked servants standing at the door, and said to Sabrina: "Do you have a way to deal with them?"

The latter opened his eyes wide and said: "Deal with them?! Do you know what you are talking about? These two people were sent by Iliad to protect us!"

"Protection, but also surveillance." Rachel closed the door again, turned around and said, "It seems that even though I talked to Eliade, I still didn't relieve his vigilance."

Sabrina covered her forehead and shook her body: "Rachel, you have completely confused me! Isn't the purpose of your coming here to win over Elder Eliade, help Muxi City, and get rid of Eleanor?

?”

Rachel walked towards the back bedroom and said, "Part of the reason is indeed the case."

Seeing Rachel kneeling on the ground and groping for something under the edge of the bed, Sabrina asked: "What do you mean by what you just said? What is part of the reason for this?!"

Rachel raised her head and said to Sabrina without answering: "When Mia and I were children, the favorite thing to do was hide and seek. During the game, we explored every corner of this ancient palace. Here are

Some institutions and secret passages existed thousands of years ago, but no one knows about it..."

Rachel's right hand suddenly lifted up, and a dull click came from the ground.

With a harsh friction sound, the stone slabs under the bed slowly parted to both sides, finally revealing a stone staircase hidden in the darkness.

Sabrina asked with numbness: "Have you always known that there is a secret passage under the bed? What is inside...?"

Rachel took out the torch she had prepared, got under the bed, and climbed a few steps down the stairs.

Later, she turned around, exposed her head to the ground, and said to Sabrina: "This secret passage leads to the biggest secret of the Presbyterian Church, and the things in it are enough to completely destroy Eleanor... So, you

Do you want to come with me?"

Sabrina looked at the dark hole and said to herself depressedly: "Sometimes, I really hate my crow's mouth. I know it is a pit, but I can't control my legs...

…”

Sabrina hesitated again and again, and finally resigned herself to following Rachel into the secret passage.

The dark and damp passage leads all the way to the underground. The stone stairs are at a 45-degree angle, and the stairs are narrow, so you can only stand sideways.

Rachel held a torch and walked in front and climbed down the stairs.

Sabrina followed her cautiously. As she listened to the sound of wind passing by her ears, she couldn't help but said: "I have lived in the Presbyterian Church for hundreds of years, and I didn't even know there was such a secret passage."

"Not to mention you, I'm afraid even the previous elders don't know the existence of these passages." Rachel said while stepping on the stairs at her feet: "According to my guess, these institutions and secret passages may have been used during the Great Alien Purge.

Construction had already started before.”

Sabrina paused: "Do you know what you are talking about? At that time, the alien races were still living safely in the Tyro Empire, and the so-called Great Purge was still in the minds of some people!"

Rachel asked softly in a calm tone: "What if the aliens had already known about this cleaning plan?"

Sabrina shook her head in disbelief and said, "I've known it for a long time?! How is this possible?"

"I checked the sentencing records of the Gutero period. In the three years before the start of the Alien Purge, the Tyro Council of Elders sentenced a total of 4,500 prisoners to exile. This abnormal number far exceeded

Average value for a typical year.”

"So, you suspect that before the purge plan, the alien leaders in the parliament were secretly transferring alien species to other countries in the name of exile?"

Rachel shook the torch and motioned Sabrina to look around: "Look at how much manpower and time it takes to complete these huge projects. Perhaps the leaders of the alien species are smarter than we thought. They use

Superpowers monitor every move of those in power, and have been secretly preparing possible countermeasures based on the premise that things will develop into the worst case scenario."

Sabrina looked around and suddenly remembered something: "Wait a minute! So you came back to the Presbyterian Church this time not to win the support of Elder Eliade?! You know that old man from the beginning to the end.

You will not agree to help Mu Xicheng! You have gone to see him so many times and told him what a beautiful paradise Mu Xicheng is and what a sage king Mu Xi Saint King is. Are you just trying to paralyze his wariness?"

"Yes, Iliad will not help Muxi City, I know that. But letting him know that there is such a paradise in this world is not a bad thing for him and me." Rachel looked back.

Sabrina: "What I care about more is what he is doing."

Sabrina frowned: "What...are you doing?"

Rachel turned back and said softly: "Come with me, you will know soon."

Sabrina wanted to ask something more, but found that Rachel had quickened her pace and stopped talking.

Looking at the back of the woman in front of her, Sabrina pursed her lips and spoke at a volume that only she could hear.

Lawrence is right about one thing. In terms of being good at lying, you are really very similar to Eleanor...
