“Mm, there is something fishy about this, go to the sea area where Avery had gone to investigate!”

The Light Pope, who had also calmed down, waved his hand tiredly.

“Yes, Your Holiness.” Upon hearing this, Sith immediately responded.

They had to investigate this matter clearly, they could not directly attack the Church of Darkness just because of Avery’s message, unless they had concrete evidence.

The Light Pope and the red-robed archbishop were both old powers who had lived for gods knew how long, so they naturally wouldn’t be fooled so easily.

Therefore, to frame someone, Su Yu sometimes had to rely on luck.

Soon, Archbishop Sith led a few red-robed bishops towards the sea area where Avery had carried out his mission.

Not long after, a few red-robed figures appeared in the sea area where Avery had transmitted the message.

Upon arriving, Archbishop Sith tapped his finger lightly in the air. Instantly, a terrifying power of light began to spread towards the sea area with him as the center.

Under the influence of this power, Archbishop Sith frowned slightly. Then, he casually grabbed at the sea area below.

Immediately, Archbishop Strength extracted a subtle power of darkness from the sea.

After carefully sensing this strand of power of darkness, Archbishop Sith’s expression turned slightly ugly.

This was because he could indeed sense the aura of the Church of Darkness from this strand of power. Furthermore, this strand of power of darkness was extremely pure.

However, this alone was not enough for Archbishop Sith to conclude that Avery and the other Paladins were in trouble because they were attacked by the Church of Darkness.

“Spread out and capture some sea creatures in the sea area. I want to see if I can find any clues from them.”

Sith casually sealed the power of darkness in his hand, turned around and instructed the other red-robed bishops beside him.

“Yes.” The red-robed bishops instantly dispersed.

However, what made the red-robed bishops frown was that this sea was like a dead sea. Their spiritual thoughts had already penetrated hundreds of meters into the sea, but they did not find any traces of the sea creatures.

When she realized that the Church of Darkness might have attacked the Holy Church’s paladins, the insect queen gave the orders to the insects in this sea region to disperse and escape.

If they encountered an opponent they could not defeat, they were to directly self-destruct.

Hence, some of the stronger insects quickly left this area before Archbishop Sith and his group arrived.

However, not all insects had that speed. Therefore, there were still some extremely well-hidden insects in the sea area where Archbishop Sith and his group were.

With the carpet search of the red-robed bishops, it was probably only a matter of time before they discovered these insects.

The insect queen had already come up with a countermeasure regarding these insects. Some of the remaining ones had witnessed the scene of the paladins being captured.

Therefore, the insect queen had deliberately left a portion of the insects behind so that the people from the Holy Church would discover them. Then, they would target the Church of Darkness.

As the red-robed bishops went deeper, they quickly discovered many insects.

It was not until they reached the bottom of the sea that a few red-robed bishops returned to Archbishop Sith’s side with a large number of weak insects.

“Archbishop, this sea area is a little strange. There are no other sea creatures in it, only these strange creatures.”

A bishop who had used his powers to imprison the insect race in the air spoke to Sith solemnly.

“Search the souls of these creatures and see if we can obtain some information from them.”

After glancing at the ferocious-looking insects, Archbishop Sith instructed.

Upon hearing this, the red-robed bishops immediately probed the numerous insects with the spiritual thoughts.

When the red-robed bishops invaded their minds, many weak insects self-destructed on the spot.

The slightly stronger insects could last a little longer.

However, the insects’ memories were very incomplete. There were only a few scattered memories that were deliberately left behind by the insect queen.

The insect queen naturally knew that powerful beings knew how to search souls. Therefore, she dared to leave these insects here because she had naturally made a foolproof plan.

Otherwise, if someone found information about the insects from their memories, wouldn’t that be asking for trouble?

At this moment, the red-robed bishops who were constantly reading the memories of the insect race and Archbishop Sith were frowning.

From the scattered memories of these insects, they realized that these creatures were very simple. They were not much different from other wild beasts in the sea. Other than eating, they only ate. They did not possess any intelligence at all.

In addition, other than some information about eating and reproduction, there was no other useful information in their memories.

“Archbishop, I’ve found something.” A red-robed bishop suddenly said.

Upon hearing this voice, Sith’s figure appeared in front of the red-robed bishop in the next second.

“From this creature’s memories, I saw a scene it witnessed while hiding in a coral reef.”

Upon hearing this, Sith’s huge spiritual power directly invaded the body of the insect race that had yet to die.

In the next second, a very blurry scene appeared in Sith’s mind.

In the sea where visibility was extremely low, an existence wearing a strange mask was capturing a bronze paladin. There was no follow-up scene.

After Sith finished reading this memory, the insect in front of him directly exploded.

In the end, when all the insect race memories were checked, Sith’s expression was very cold.

This was because after reading all the information of the insect race, Sith did not discover anything other than that blurry memory.

However, this also deepened Sith’s suspicion of the Church of Darkness. However, he was not 100% sure. He could only say that he was suspicious.

Then, the other large clans were also listed as suspects.

Of course, there were also some old fellows who believed in evil gods that were within Sith’s range of speculation.

“Let’s return to the Holy Church first.” Seeing that there were no more clues, Sith did not intend to stay here for long. Instead, he chose to return to the Holy Church. He planned to ask the pope to use the power of the semi-divine item.

Although Sith was a little concerned about these strange creatures in this sea area, he did not think too much about them. After all, these creatures were pitifully weak and were not worth his attention.

To Sith, the most important thing now was to find out who was behind Avery’s disappearance.

If this matter was not investigated properly, not only would the entire Holy Church lose face, but their prestige in the god sea area would also drop by a level. This was something that the Holy Church could not tolerate.

When Sith returned to the Hall of Light with the red-robed bishops, the Holy Paladin, who was sitting on the main seat, spoke to Sith in a low voice.

“Sith, did you find any clues?”

“Your Holiness, the enemy is quite cunning. In that sea area, I only found some traces of the power of darkness. In addition, from the memories of the nearby sea creatures, I discovered someone wearing a black robe and a strange mask. There are no other clues.”

“Therefore, I want to ask Your Holiness to use that semi-divine artifact and see if you can obtain some other clues from the strand of power of darkness in my hand.”

After saying this, Sith directly took out the trace of power of darkness that he had extracted from the sea area.

After seeing the power of darkness in Sith’s hand, the Light Pope’s expression also turned a little solemn.

“Alright, I’ll use the Light Wheel once..”
