Me and My Cold CEO Wife

Chapter 2061 - 2050: Who Is the Traitor

Vivian said again, "The Holy Prison itself is a large-scale Divine Formation, or rather, a Divine Artifact. It's just that the Holy Prison has very low requirements for the user, even those with weak Magic Power can activate it.""So you're saying that the Demon Beast imprisoned inside took advantage of the disappearance of the masters from the Church of Light to escape."

"That seems to be the case."

Ning Fan frowned, as if he felt something was amiss.

"What's wrong?"

After speaking, Vivian's face turned serious as she said coldly, "I have no reason to lie to you about this."

"What are you thinking?"

Ning Fan looked at Vivian in surprise, not expecting her to have such a petty side.

"I just feel that something is not quite right."

Vivian said displeased, "What's wrong with it?"

"Think about the bloodstains we encountered when we entered the main hall, as well as the scene of the battle."

Ning Fan pondered, "If the Demon Beast's escape was due to the disappearance of the Church's masters, causing the Holy Prison to fail, then who in the main hall just now was there to intercept the Demon Beast?"

Upon hearing this, Vivian also realized something was wrong, "It couldn't have been the white-clad believers. Otherwise, there would definitely be corpses or pieces of cloth left behind."

"Could it be that the Demon Beast escaped first, and then the fixed-point Teleportation Formation was activated?"

After thinking about it, Ning Fan felt that this was the most likely scenario; otherwise, the situation made no sense.

"Unless someone killed the guard of the Holy Prison, causing the prison's binding force to fail, which allowed the Demon Beast to escape."

Vivian puzzled, "But who would do that? Everyone here is from the Church."

Ning Fan smiled enigmatically, "Do you really think the Church can't have traitors?"

"Traitors?"

Vivian was stunned for a moment, then acknowledged it.

In Middle Earth, there have been incidents of Church of Light believers defecting.

But generally, such traitors must first find a new "patron," and the strength of the patron would need to withstand the Church's retaliation.

"We just need to look ahead. If there are bloodstains, then my guess is correct."

There was another possibility that Ning Fan didn't mention. He was a hundred percent sure that the Demon Beast's escape was the work of someone inside the Church of Light.

Keep in mind, during this time period, the majority of the Church's masters were all going to the Metropolis.

Those with overflowing ambition certainly wouldn't miss such a rare opportunity.

"It's possible this person even struck a deal with the Demon Beast. But no one expected the fixed-point Teleportation Formation would teleport everyone away."

Before reaching the end of the passage, Vivian believed Ning Fan's deduction, as she already smelled a strong scent of blood.

Arriving at a small plaza, what greeted them was a large pool of blood.

"It's truly a river of blood. Who knows how many people died."

Stepping on the blood, congealed into a paste, Ning Fan only felt a wave of nausea in his heart and subconsciously walked in the air.

Like the main hall, not a single body was left here.

Under the fixed-point Teleportation Formation, even dismembered limbs would be teleported away.

After all, these organs, having been day and night enhanced by Magic or Battle Aura, were considered by the Teleportation Formation as cultivators.

"Where is the Holy Prison?"

"Ahead."

Ning Fan did not expect the Holy Prison to be a pit the size of a truck cab.

Vivian explained, "The main body of the Holy Prison lies in the Divine Formation, with Shining Stone as its walls. As long as you guard this place, even the Divine Spirits won't be able to escape."

"Can you really achieve Eternal Life in the Holy Prison?"

Ning Fan was a bit tempted.

In the past, he certainly wouldn't torture himself with bitter cultivation in the Holy Prison, but now, with his cultivation completely gone, it wasn't a bad idea to temper his State of Mind here.

Maybe he could even bring Xu Ruolan and others along.

Since vitality doesn't ebb away here, spending hundreds or thousands of years to enhance one's State of Mind and cultivation wasn't a bad idea either.

As long as the State of Mind is well-cultivated, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that cultivation speed would skyrocket like a rocket launch.

"Can you use Holy Power?"

Vivian's words shattered all of Ning Fan's dreams, "Holy Power is a special power exclusive to the God King of Light. Unless you worship him, you won't get a shred of Holy Power."

"Worship him? Forget it."

Ning Fan shook his head in refusal, which caught Vivian's eyes.

Isn't there a saying!

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Since Ning Fan disliked the God King of Light so much, naturally, Vivian would be more favorably disposed towards him.

Unfortunately, he wasn't aware of this; otherwise, he would keep gaining favor, possibly even getting a few top-tier Demon Crystals.

"There's nothing else to see here, let's go."

Returning once again to the Pope's estate, looking at fifty sets of Battle Armor piled up in the hall, Ning Fan was envious.

"Why isn't there any spatial equipment?"

Ning Fan lamented to the heavens, the greatest agony is entering a treasure trove and leaving empty-handed.

"Perhaps I can help you forge one."

Vivian said again, "But I would have to use Divine Power."

Ning Fan exclaimed excitedly, "No problem."

At this moment, Vivian sighed, "It's a pity there aren't any ores with spatial attributes."

"What kind of ores?"

"Void Stone, Flame Crystal, Void Stone..."

"Enough."

Ning Fan wore a defeated expression; he hadn't even heard of these ores, and they were rare in the Divine Realm.

Even if the Origin World had them, where would he find them?

"These are just mere scraps of iron, no need to concern yourself."

Vivian pursed her lips, then said, "This set is fairly acceptable, barely considered a Holy Artifact."

Gazing at the Battle Armor exuding a Silver Glow, Ning Fan exclaimed, "You say this is a Holy Artifact."

Why did Vivian refer to the Church of Light's accumulated Holy Artifacts as scraps of iron?

Because these things, essentially, are not true Holy Artifacts.

According to Middle Earth's standards, these are just lower or mid-tier enchanted equipment.

Because they reside in the low-energy Origin World, they appear powerful and thus were called Holy Artifacts.

True Holy Artifacts, in the Middle Ancient World, belong to top-tier equipment,

Moreover, what Ning Fan obtained was an entire set of Holy Artifacts.

Otherwise, Vivian, who was used to seeing all kinds of good stuff, wouldn't give it such a favorable evaluation.

"Yes, a complete set of Holy Artifacts nearly rivals a Divine Artifact, and even the Divine Spirits may not possess one."

Vivian shook her head, "I really don't know where the Origin World's Holy Church found such good stuff. Their luck is amazing."

Ning Fan wondered, "Could it be a gift from the God King of Light?"

"Stop joking. Do you think Divine Artifacts are so easily forged?"

Vivian sneered, "Besides, this is still the Origin World. Forget about Divine Artifacts; even ordinary Holy Artifacts—the Origin Will wouldn't allow them to Break Boundary and come down, even if the God King of Light were so generous. A full-force strike from an offensive Divine Artifact is enough to destroy a realm."

"Then this set of Holy Artifacts?"

"It must have been left behind in the Era of the Descent of the Gods in the Origin World and fortuitously acquired by the Church of Light. Otherwise, this holy sword wouldn't be separated from the Holy Armor."
