Backlund, East Borough.

"Call"

It was early morning, and the temperature was still quite low. Xio Derecha hurried along the road, her white breath escaping from under her hood.

Following the coded message, she turned left and right, quickly disappearing into a secluded alley.

"What's up?"

The petite "Sheriff" asked in a low voice.

Opposite her, a man wearing a gold mask appeared from around the corner.

"I have a new commission. See if you want to accept it." The man's steady voice came through the mask, sounding somewhat muffled.

"Another one about Blood Bishop?"

Hugh frowned. "You're still investigating him?"

During this time, MI9 was frantically searching for the whereabouts of this madman. Just as desperate were the bounty Hunter, who were eyeing the astronomical reward. The two groups practically turned the entire Backlund upside down, but still found no valuable clues, instead causing chaos in the underground extraordinary world.

Fors used this as an excuse to stay at home and never come out. Honestly, if she keeps being so lazy, she'll grow into the armchair!

Just as Xiu was inwardly complaining, he saw the Gold Mask opposite him shake his head.

"No, the Blood Bishop is no longer in Backlund."

The latter's voice was clearly tinged with resentment, "According to the latest intelligence, he has already appeared in the Sonia Sea."

"Sonia Sea?"

"Hmm, he's gotten himself into some serious trouble again. You'll see what it is in today's paper," the Gold Mask said irritably. "Anyway, I have something else to discuss with you today."

He took a photograph from inside his robe and handed it to Hugh.

The photo shows a red-haired girl in a long court dress, with a noble and beautiful appearance.

"This is."

"The Third Princess of Feysac, Sophia Einhorn."

"She has recently gone missing," said the Gold Mask. "If you find any information about her, contact me immediately. If the information is reliable, you will receive a reward of at least 1,000 pounds."

£1000!

Hugh's heart skipped a beat.

It doesn't matter, since it involves a member of the Royal Family, but--

"What does the disappearance of Princess Feysac have to do with MI9?"

She couldn't help but ask.

"It's confidential, I can't tell you."

The Gold Mask answered calmly.

Confidential?

Xiu frowned, his handsome brows furrowing as he glanced at the other person.

Gold Mask usually assigns her secret jobs, but he always provides some explanation. This is the first time he's told nothing at all.

"I understand, I'll keep that in mind."

She carefully put the photos away. "Is there anything else?"

After receiving a negative answer from the Gold Mask, Hugh left the alley. Two questions lingered in her mind for a long time.

What did the Blood Bishop do this time?

And what is the purpose of MI9's search for the missing Princess?

Her first problem was quickly resolved.

"Breaking news! Breaking news! Blood Bishop have appeared in the Sonia Sea, attacked the local government, and fled!"

"Breaking news! Breaking news! The Blood Bishop are openly recruiting on Toscarter Island, vowing to become pirates and fight against the Loen!"

At the morning market at the border of the East Borough and the Cherwood Borough, newsboys waved newly printed newspapers and shouted. This shocking news instantly attracted everyone's attention.

"Give me one!"

A gentleman leaned out of the window of a passing carriage and called out.

"Sir, this is an urgent dispatch, it needs 2 pence more than usual."

"The money's right here, give it to me now!"

The man took out his money, picked up the newspaper, and eagerly began to read it.

Hugh noticed that as he quickly flipped through the pages, the man's expression grew increasingly shocked, and he muttered things like, "Impossible," "Too crazy," and "Unbelievable."

What exactly did the newspaper say?

She couldn't help but become curious and wanted to buy a newspaper to read as well.

At this moment, the two newsboys were surrounded by a huge crowd of curious people. Hugh, with his unusually strong physique, managed to push through the crowd and successfully buy a newspaper.

The Backlund Post reported:

"<Blood Bishop Appears at Sea, Threatening to Form Pirate Crew to Fight Against the Kingdom!>"

According to this newspaper, a notorious Criminal nicknamed "The Blood Bishop," who committed a serious crime of attacking the Imperial Palace in Backlund, recently appeared in the Sonia Sea and attacked Toscarter Island, the easternmost island in the sea.

According to the investigation, the "Blood Bishop" identified himself as Alexander Gascoigne. He, along with a former pirate Hunter from the Fog Sea, launched a surprise attack on the island's government, resulting in numerous casualties and the local affairs officer falling into a coma.

In addition, Blood Bishop Alexander Gascoigne plundered a large amount of cash from the island and recruited many pirates and rebels, declaring his intention to fight against the Royal Family.

Amyrius Levitt of the Kingdom Navy Your Excellency stated that the glorious Royal Navy would soon capture the arrogant "Blood Bishop" and bring him to Judgement.

As Xiu read, his eyes involuntarily narrowed slightly.

The Blood Bishop has indeed stirred up trouble again!

This entire administrative region has been looted! No wonder that Gold Mask looks so troubled!

The Sonia Sea, outside of normal shipping routes.

A Fleet is sailing at sea, with the lead three-masted sailing ship moving at a very high speed.

"The Omniscience and Omnipotence- powerful Lord created everything, and then went into slumber."

Captain's Cabin, Luther held some Parchment and read softly, "After that, the Ancient God ruled the world."

"Giant King Ormir," "Dragon of Imagination" Angorweid, Elf King Suniasolem, Vampire Progenitor Lilith, Demon King Fabuti, Phoenix Progenitor Gregari, Alien King Kvasithun, and Wolf King Fregra, divided the power left by the Lord, becoming the gods who rule the sky, the earth, and the sea, the realm of reality, the spirit world, and the astral plane, and the gods of all races—the true gods, the ancient gods."

After reading through these lengthy names, he paused, then muttered to himself, "The legend of City of Silver is different from the Holy Bible of the Seven Gods of the Northern Continent."

What he held in his hand was the book about the Mythological Era that [the Sun] had transmitted through Mr. Fool.

In the Holy Bible of the Seven Gods, the myth concerning creation is relatively simple. It merely states that the Creator awoke from chaos, broke through the darkness, created the first ray of light, and then completely merged into the universe, becoming all things. All demons, gods, the earth, and mountains are creations of Him.

"Medici, which of these two statements is more consistent with the facts?"

After a moment of thought, he suddenly spoke up and asked the Red Angel residing within him.

This Angel comes from a much more ancient era and should know more.

"."

Medici did not answer.
