"Shaman?"

Bart scratched his head and asked, "The kind Shaman that is similar to a witch doctor?"

Arthur's expression froze and he laughed:

"Of course not.

"Whether it's the witch doctor you're talking about or Shaman, they're all lies.

"I accepted the baptism of Supreme Being, and received His gift. I am truly a "Shaman" with supernatural power!"

Bart showed a recalling expression, and then his body trembled. "Is this the kind of ability Mentor used on the day of the sermon?"

"That's right!"

Arthur straightened his back proudly.

However, he added, "But I can't do what he does here, because this Factory is his territory."

"Only in its own territory, "Shaman" is the most powerful!"

Arthur paused slightly and said:

"He taught me a ritual.

"When I choose the location of my territory, I can fix it by setting up totems and holding ceremonies.

"In the territory, I can communicate with the sky, the earth, the water flow, flowers, trees, and creatures, and borrow power from their Spirituality.

"Depending on the borrowed power, the spells cast are also different.

"The air blade he cast that day was a wind spell, or a type of air spell, while the water-condensing arrow I told you before was a water spell."

It could be seen that he could not contain his excitement and wanted to demonstrate his acquired abilities to his good brother on the spot.

But "Shaman" who has no territory is no different from ordinary people. Therefore, regret flashed in Arthur's eyes and he could only give up this plan.

He coughed and continued:

"Unlike those weak followers of Seven Deities, the power given to Believer by Supreme Being that we believe in is undoubtedly more powerful.

"If according to their classification, "Shaman" belongs to Sequence 9.

"But in my own territory, I can easily kill Beyonder of Sequence 8, and even Sequence 7 Beyonder of some Pathway."

Perhaps thinking that he had mentioned a professional term, Arthur quickly added:

"Beyonder is the self-proclaimed name of the followers of Seven Deities.

"As for "Sequence" and "Pathway", it is too troublesome to explain. When you get the opportunity to be baptized, Archbishop will teach you personally."

Bart blinked:

"Brother Arthur has seen Archbishop?"

"Of course." Arthur said without thinking too much, "He personally presided over the baptism ceremony for us, and also issued the oracle."

"Oracle?"

Bart murmured with longing on his face.

An apartment room in East Borough.

A man wearing a white priest's robe and using a wide hood to hide his face silently walked through the dark passage and knocked lightly on the door three times.

Two are long and one is short.

The sound of footsteps soon came from inside the door.

Click, the door opened, and the man in white robe quickly walked in, with a pious expression on his face, and lowered his head to the man in black robe sitting on the single bed:

"Archbishop!"

After saying that, he turned around and looked at the man in gray robe Door Opening and nodded gently:

"You are here too."

"Deputy Bishop." The man in gray robe bowed slightly, and then explained, "For specific arrangements of some actions, you need to ask Archbishop for instructions."

That is to say, Bart and Arthur are not here.

Otherwise, one can recognize at a glance that the two people speaking are clearly Gray-Robed Mentor, who is responsible for abolishing Factory, and White-Robed Deputy Archbishop, who preached last week.

White-Robed Deputy Archbishop nodded without saying anything more. He looked sideways at the figure on the single bed, lowered his head and said respectfully:

"The two women who were following us outside the cafe a few days ago, suspected to be looking for us, have been investigated by my subordinates.

"The shorter one is called Xio Derecha. He is more active in East Borough. He knows many Gang and sources. He is Bounty Hunter who is quite famous.

"The other one with curly hair and taller name is Fors·Wall. In recent years, Bestselling Author is Xio Derecha's roommate.

"Currently two people live in Cherwood Borough.

"Also, they are probably not ordinary people.

"My subordinates noticed the aura of Beyonder on them."

After saying that, he stood there with his hands down, waiting to hear the other party's decision.

"Xio Derecha...Fors..." Archbishop Silent Recitation in black robe read the two names, shook his head slightly, and said in a hoarse voice:

"Don't mess with them.

"If necessary, you can throw out a few discarded stones to attract their attention."

After the words fell, the eyes of the two people under the bed flashed with confusion.

Don't provoke them.

Provoke?

Archbishop actually used the word "provoke"?

Black robe Archbishop sneered:

"Do you think there is only one great being?"

"Do you think you are the only one who has ever seen the gaze of a great being?"

"Those two should be the dependents of another great being. Our plan is currently at a critical stage, so there is no need to do unnecessary things."

They actually served a certain great being?

White-Robed Deputy Archbishop was secretly shocked and quickly lowered his head. "Yes, I know what to do, please don't worry."

Even so, he had a strange feeling in his heart.

Archbishop seemed to have known these two women for a long time and knew their backgrounds, so he resolutely overturned his previous thoughts after hearing their names.

Thinking about it, he looked at Gray-Robed Mentor next to him who had a confused face and didn't understand why Archbishop gave the explanation, and secretly pouted in his heart.

"Shaman" is "Shaman". Once they leave the territory, their strength will be greatly reduced, and they will even degenerate into ordinary people when they are far away.

Fortunately, I have already been baptized and Advancement became a "journalist".

At the same time.

In a workshop of abandoned Factory.

Bart heard Arthur, who had already Advancement say to Gray-Robed Mentor, finished his mission.

He looked hesitant and said calmly:

"Attack Factory, destroy Robot, and plunder the wealth of those evil bosses?"

"However, if this happens, many Factory will stop working, and innocent workers will be implicated and lose their original stable jobs."

Arthur laughed:

"You are overthinking, how could something like this happen?

"They are all our potential brothers and sisters. As long as they follow the great beings we believe in, they will naturally have their share of the wealth they steal."

Bart was silent for a while and asked in a low voice, "But many people already have faith, so they may not be willing to change their faith, right?"

Arthur's smile faded, and his expression gradually became colder:

"If you are unwilling to believe in a great existence, you are not our brothers and sisters. If they are not our brothers and sisters, why should we worry about their life and death?"

The voice fell.

Bart felt an inexplicable chill on his back.

He quietly looked at this big brother Arthur out of the corner of his eye, and suddenly had a strange feeling. Although he had just seen him during the day, he seemed to have changed into a different person.

In the silent air, Arthur grinned again:

"Okay, just follow me, don't think about other things, just wait patiently for Archbishop's baptism and teachings."

Bart nodded slightly:

"Okay."

After speaking, he asked nicely:

"By the way, brother Arthur, do you know what Archbishop is called?"

"Normally no one will call Archbishop by his name directly, but Gray-Robed Mentor has been baptized, so he is naturally qualified to know this matter.

Arthur smiled quite proudly and whispered:

"Archbishop said, his name is--

"Miles."
