Chapter 6: Attacking the Vatican

  Wang Long thought hard about a way out, pacing back and forth in the room. He definitely couldn't follow their arrangements and had to think of a way to get the news out.

  Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Wang Long's mind, and he thought of a way to deal with the situation, but he wasn't sure if it would work. He quickly scanned the entire room, silently reciting the "Great Method for Summoning Ghosts" in his heart. To his surprise, a cloud of black smoke immediately appeared in the room, and a tall, gaunt foreign ghost materialized before him.

  Wang Long only then realized that as the king of ghosts, You Ming had jurisdiction over these foreign little ghosts. The tall foreign ghost bowed to Wang Long and respectfully said in awkward Mandarin: "Master, I am the little ghost Buthari from this ancient castle, what are your orders?" Wang Long felt extremely surprised, never expecting that this little ghost could speak Chinese.

  Wang Long whispered in Bula's ear, and Bula quickly disappeared into the room after hearing Wang Long's words.

  At three o'clock in the evening, Mo Li came to Wang Long's room and asked him to follow him. Wang Long followed Mo Li to the great hall of the ancient castle, where hundreds of people had already gathered. Behind the leader of the beast tribe, Ri Nuo, were more than 20 powerful warriors of the beast tribe. Behind the elder Haka of the demon tribe were over a hundred people, each with an unusual and eerie appearance, worthy of being called demons who had cultivated to become spirits. The Mo family had indeed sent out their elite this time, as the hundreds of vampires behind them were all at least barons in terms of strength.

  Mo Li said to Wang Long, "You sneak into the temple first, we'll ambush outside. When you succeed, send a signal to notify us." After finishing speaking, he handed Wang Long a red signal flare, which Wang Long put in his pocket.

  A group of people quickly arrived at a valley next to the Sacred See in the western suburbs of the United States. The Sacred See was originally in Rome, but in recent decades, Rome's international influence has gradually weakened, and it moved to a small town in the western suburbs of the United States not long ago. The US government is very supportive of the Sacred See in order to increase its country's international influence. The US government specially allocated a small town with an area of tens of thousands of square meters as the new address of the Sacred See, and the town also belongs to the jurisdiction of the Sacred See, equivalent to an independent power center from the United States. Of course, the Sacred See is also reciprocating, opening up great convenience for the US government internationally, and many things are given priority attention.

  This small valley is thousands of meters away from the Sacred Court, and under the spell of several great princes of the Mo Gong family, these hundreds of people are shrouded in a thin layer of black fog. From the outside of the valley, it looks like there is nothing in this valley.

  Mo Li said to Wang Long, "I'll go around with you and enter the temple from the back door. I'll protect you in secret, and once we give a signal, they'll come to meet us. Don't worry, I'll be with you all the time." Wang Long knew that they didn't trust him, and Mo Li was following him to keep an eye on him.

  Upon arriving at the back door of the Vatican, Mori felt a sense of strangeness. Usually, there would be several clergy members guarding this place, but today, not a single person was in sight near the tall back door. Mori and Wang Long climbed over the high wall of the backyard and landed inside the Vatican's courtyard. The courtyard was enormous, with a huge garden that served as a recreational area for Vatican personnel during their free time. It seemed there were also several exercise racks, where lower-level personnel would work out. With the cover of the large book, Wang Long and Mori slowly made their way towards the room marked on the map as the location of the "Divine Light Lamp". According to the map, at least five people should be guarding this backyard, but not a single person was in sight, making it seem like an empty courtyard. Mori felt a sense of inexplicable unease, but he thought his plan had been flawless and there shouldn't be any problems. So, he continued to closely follow Wang Long from behind.

  Unexpectedly, Wang Long and Mo Li easily reached the place where the "Divine Light Lamp" was placed. After knocking out the two divine staff members at the door, Wang Long entered the room with ease, while Mo Li watched Wang Long's actions through the window gap from outside the room.

  Wang Long quickly closed the door, and it turned out to be a house with a study-like room. Along the three walls adjacent to the wall were placed a huge bookshelf, filled with scriptures of the church. Wang Long relied on the map's instructions, quickly arrived at the east-facing wall bookshelf, picked up a thick "Bible", and found a palm-sized pattern underneath.

  Wang Long pressed his palm against the pattern and applied force, causing the bookshelf to move slowly. Behind the bookshelf, an iron door was revealed. Wang Long quickly entered a string of numbers on the keypad next to the iron door, which also slowly opened. It wasn't until then that Wang Long realized the iron door was at least half a meter thick, and without knowing the password beforehand, it would have been impossible to open by brute force alone.

  Wang Long strode in, and behind the iron gate was a small storage space. All sorts of treasures were piled up inside. Wang Long quickly searched around, after a few minutes, he found a small safe near the innermost wall. Wang Long took a look, it was this box, inside which was the "Divine Light Lamp" that Mo Li and others had mentioned. Wang Long picked up the box and headed out the door.

  He brought the box in front of Mo Li, and Mo Li said to Wang Long: "The password for this box is 685249. After you open it, immediately destroy the 'Divine Light Lamp' inside. This lamp will cause great harm to our dark forces, so I'll run far away first. Once you've destroyed the box, come over here." After finishing speaking, he ran far away, directly running out of range where the Divine Light Lamp couldn't harm him, but still able to see the scene from afar.

  Wang Long quickly pressed the password according to Mori's instructions, and the box opened with a click. Wang Long took out a lamp that emitted a crystal white light from inside. The lamp was small and exquisite, just like the "longming lamp" that children often played with in ancient times. Wang Long concentrated his energy on his palm and slapped it towards the "Shenguang Lamp". In an instant, the Shenguang Lamp turned into powder.

  Mo Li saw all this from afar and lit up a signal flare in satisfaction. The red signal flare instantly dyed the sky blood-red.

  Mona and Mosah received the signal, leading hundreds of people below to rush towards the Vatican gate. However, strangely, when they broke through the gate, they didn't encounter any resistance, only a few clergy members who saw them break in and quickly escaped. Mona and Mosah's leaders became even more arrogant, thinking that the Vatican must have discovered that their usual reliance on the "Divine Light" had been destroyed, so they didn't dare to come out. Today was the day of the Vatican's downfall.

  "Hey, you Vatican brats! Get out here and face your death! Don't hide like a turtle!" His voice shook the heavens, shattering several lanterns on the walls of the great hall. The men beside him quickly covered their ears, for they were all too familiar with the clan leader's "Lion's Roar" technique, which was so powerful that it had killed enemies with its sheer force in the past.

  They shouted a few times, but there was no reaction at all. In the grand hall of the Vatican, which covers an area of nearly a thousand square meters, it seemed that only they were standing there, as if surrounded by the building itself. Mona immediately sensed that something was off. The eerie atmosphere was too abnormal. Based on her past experience dealing with the Vatican, she knew that even if they were at a disadvantage, the Vatican's people would not have fled in such a panic.

  It's too abnormal, the high and empty church hall suddenly became very terrifying in the eyes of these people. Mona shouted loudly: "Quickly retreat." But it was already too late to retreat now, countless clergy suddenly appeared on the four walls of the church, each mouth chanting words, and what made Mona most terrified was the "Divine Light Lamp" held by Archbishop Dekur, which emitted a vast sacred light. Those vampires, demons, and beastmen with lower powers were all vaporized into blood water in the white light, evaporating instantly. Mona watched as one by one of his subordinates died under the holy light of the church, realizing that they had fallen into a trap, and it was a disaster.

  In a fit of rage, he shouted: "Everyone, charge together! Even if we die, let the Vatican suffer heavy losses!" After finishing speaking, he was the first to rush towards Bishop Dekur. Mo Sai and Rienasi also rushed towards Dekur together. Rienasi activated the Beast Clan's Crazy Transformation Technique while rushing forward, his entire body suddenly swelling up to three meters tall, like an iron tower pressing down on Dekur.

  Deqiu. Wen Shend immediately stood out with ten red-robed guardians, all of whom welcomed Mo Na's group, and the two sides instantly engaged in a fierce battle. These red-robed guardians were high-ranking masters of the Sacred Court, each with great strength, and for a time they fought evenly with several vampire princes, demon tribe leaders, and beast tribe masters, unable to gain the upper hand.

  Wang Long and Mo Li converged after firing the signal flare. Mo Li said to Wang Long, "Well done, dear Dragon! After we destroy the Vatican, you can take your friends and leave. You will always be my friend, and if there's anything I can help with in the future, just let me know, haha." He then burst into triumphant laughter.

  Wang Long looked at Mo Li with a pitiful face, but in Mo Li's eyes, Wang Long's expression was so sincere and fearful that he thought Wang Long was showing such an expression because he was grateful to him. Mo Li patted Wang Long on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, we'll take a look together and kill two birds with one stone."

  After finishing speaking, Mo Li led the way towards the Grand Hall of the Vatican, with Wang Long closely following behind him.
