Chapter 169 Promoting Two Women
"Otherwise, I wouldn't mind turning this holy land into a death trap!"
"Yes! I will obey the Lord's command!"
Sensing the anger in the voice, King Paul VI felt a chill run down his spine and began to kowtow frantically.
"Rest assured, my lord, your servant will do everything in his power to find out the truth."
Upon hearing Paul VI's reply, the black and red mist on the statue slowly contracted and eventually merged completely into the jade.
As the mist disappeared, the statue returned to its original sacred appearance.
At the same time, the entire secret room returned to deathly silence.
King Paul VI lay on the ground, panting heavily.
It wasn't until quite a while later that he raised his hand and touched his forehead.
It was all cold sweat.
He got up from the ground and looked at the statue that had become pure white again. A deep fear flashed in his eyes, along with a look of doubt.
Although he was terrified and his mind was blank, he could still detect an extremely pungent, rotten smell from the pervasive aura.
This was completely different from what he had seen before.
But at this moment, he dared not think too deeply about it.
After all, that aura he just felt gave him a sense of impending death.
Even more so...
If you offend that aura, you could die at any moment.
Still shaken, King Paul VI took a deep breath, straightened his disheveled robe, and stepped out of the secret chamber.
The Templar Knights outside the door knelt on one knee, awaiting instructions.
"Pass down the order."
When facing the papacy, Paul VI's voice regained its usual authority.
"Summon all the cardinals."
Furthermore, mobilize all our personnel in the United States; I need all the intelligence about what happened in Raccoon City tonight.
Precise to the minute and the second.
"Yes, Your Holiness the Pope!"
The knight accepted the order and withdrew.
King Paul VI stood in the shadows of the corridor, his eyes fixed on the end of the corridor ahead.
He didn't expect that,
Lin Jianguo...
This turmoil from twenty years ago has somehow caused such a huge mess and created such a big problem for him.
Meanwhile, in Raccoon City...
Although the battle in Raccoon City has ended, the entire Umbrella and the surrounding streets and neighborhoods have been completely reduced to ruins.
"Tsk..."
Looking at the Umbrella headquarters reduced to ruins, Lin Fan couldn't help but complain.
"I was originally planning to use this as my base, but now..."
However, just as he was complaining, Li Xiulan took out her phone and dialed a number.
"Big Sister."
The moment the call was connected, a respectful voice came from the other end.
"Have your men clear out the ruins of Umbrella, and send some more experts over. I need to know the data beneath the ruins, and I also need to use that laboratory..."
Without any further words, Li Xiulan gave the order directly.
"Okay, boss, don't worry, the Night Elf team will be at your location within five minutes..."
The voice on the phone answered immediately, but then reported back to the supervisor.
"By the way, boss, when the golden light fell from the sky just now, we detected several US military reconnaissance planes circling around. They might have captured some footage."
"Let them take the pictures if they want. Let them do what they want."
Li Xiulan remained nonchalant, her tone calm.
"Pass down the order: all members of Dark Night are to disperse throughout the United States. Break into smaller groups and prepare to deal with any eventuality."
"yes!"
The voice didn't ask for specific details, but answered directly.
Having received a reply, Li Xiulan hung up the phone without further ado and turned to look at Lin Jianguo.
"Your leg has been reattached. But to fully regain your strength, you'll need some methods. Fortunately, there's a laboratory here; I'll have someone help you."
"And while you're at it, help those two girls solidify their abilities!"
"Help them, help them stabilize their situation?"
Lin Jianguo looked puzzled, but soon, as if he had just realized something, his eyes widened.
"You...you..."
"Um??"
Li Xiulan didn't waste any words, only making a nasal sound.
But the voice and the appearance immediately made Lin Jianguo shudder, and then he said awkwardly,
"I... I don't think that's necessary."
"My leg is fine, and it's about time I settled things with the Vatican..."
"Old Lin, I think a man should listen to his wife."
Sensing the underlying meaning in the couple's words, Lin Fan naturally had to side with his mother at this moment.
"And those three lumps of rotten flesh were just small fry."
If we really anger that monster on the throne, even if our whole family attacked together, we might not be enough to fill its teeth.
Lin Jianguo glared at Lin Fan.
I thought to myself, "What do you know, kid? Why are you interrupting?"
Didn't you realize that your mom is planning to slice me into pieces?
of course,
He dared not say these things outright, he could only…
"You little brat, you're trying to boost others' morale while diminishing your own, aren't you? I'm a mighty Fire Qilin..."
"What happened to the Fire Qilin? Its legs were cut off back then."
Lin Fan ruthlessly undermined him.
Lin Jianguo was speechless.
Li Xiulan waved her hand:
"Xiao Fan is right."
The Vatican has a very deep backstory.
Although I severed that descent portal, I estimate that given the existence Xiao Fan described, it won't be long before it reopens the portal.
In the meantime, let's focus on improving your strength.
Of course, the matter concerning the two girls was just a side matter.
After saying that, she looked at the two girls, Daida and Sato Saori, who were not far away.
Seeing this, Lin Fan subconsciously looked at the two women.
"Mom, haven't they both successfully awakened?"
Not entirely.
Li Xiulan shook her head.
"Awakened talents awaken their innate abilities, or you could say their original power."
However, the two of them were awakened due to your father's broken leg, which can be considered as a branch of your father's abilities.
Of course, if developed to a certain level, it can also be extremely powerful, but the prerequisite is that it needs the guidance of your father's bloodline.
Hearing his mother say that, Lin Fan didn't say anything more.
However, the way he looked at the two women was mixed with some other emotions.
Should I say or not,
Fools sometimes have good luck.
Now that his mother had made arrangements, Lin Fan simply stopped thinking about anything else.
"Let's go. It'll take a while to clean up this place, let's find somewhere to stay first."
Li Xiulan spoke again, and at the same time made a casual gesture, causing the space in front of them to begin to distort.
Now that her identity has been exposed, she simply stopped trying to hide it.
In the blink of an eye, the distorted space in front of them returned to normal.
Lin Fan, his family of three, along with his younger sister and Sato Saori, and the woman in red, had already appeared inside a Western restaurant.
The moment the group appeared, several fungal zombies wandering in the restaurant instinctively walked towards them.
But before he could get close, Li Xiulan waved her hand and teleported him away.
With another wave, the entire Western restaurant was shut out from the outside world.
After doing all this, she looked at the woman in red.
"Go and make something to eat..."
The woman in red didn't say anything upon hearing this, and turned to walk towards the restaurant kitchen.
At the same time,
Here at the White Palace in the United States.
Inside the huge room, a group of high-ranking U.S. officials were completely stunned as they watched the video footage that had just been transmitted back…
