Chapter 135 The Two-Faced Saint is a Big Shot (21)
It is well known that only by purifying the core of a contaminated site can the entire site be revitalized. But this contaminated site has no core... Does this mean that this land cannot be restored to its original state?
“Something’s not right with the black fog here. Let’s go back first,” Shi Qi reminded Frederick, who was deep in thought.
Frederick nodded, then instructed those around him, "After you leave, have someone keep a close watch on this place to prevent any further accidents."
Because there was no urgency when they came, Shi Qi boarded the arranged carriage on his way back, which conveniently provided him and Badr with a place to talk.
Bader: “I suspect that there is something inside that ‘cocoon’,” Bader said.
Shi Qi's eyes widened slightly: "Why would you have such a suspicion?" Shi Qi deliberately lowered his voice a little, after all, Frederick was still riding alongside the carriage.
Badr: "The scent of that 'cocoon' is very familiar to me... Do you know the origin of the contaminated land you're talking about?"
Shi Qi shook his head. The plot did not mention the origin of the contaminated land. In the minds of all humans, it seemed to be an area that appeared out of thin air.
Badr continued, "Actually, a long time ago, there was a god in the realm of gods who wielded two completely different powers from me. We call him the God of Darkness."
"More than seven hundred years ago, my relationship with him was quite good. After all, where there is light, there is shadow, and in essence, we are of the same origin. At that time, the divine realm was still very harmonious..."
"But this good fortune didn't last long. The power of darkness is an extremely domineering and evil force, and the Dark God, who is its vessel, quickly lost himself under its influence. He became bloodthirsty, and many gods even fell victim to his cruelty."
"To prevent the situation from spiraling out of control, more than six hundred years ago, I joined forces with other gods to kill Him—"
Badr changed the subject: "But... just now I sensed His presence on that cocoon. So, I suspect that He may have been reborn..." It seems that his long speech just now was all paving the way for this.
Shi Qi frowned deeply. The original story made no mention of the existence of the Dark God. What's going on now?
Logically, the rebirth of the Dark God should be an unstoppable event and shouldn't be left unmentioned. Could it be... that the Dark God in the original story was secretly eliminated by Baldr?
Shi Qi pondered this all the way, and as they approached the Vatican, something suddenly occurred to him: "You came here yourself, but what about Fran? Didn't you control his body?"
Hearing this, Bader sighed softly, "I'm right here in front of you, and you're still so hung up on him... How is he now? You'll find out when we get back."
Shi Qi: "..."
When they returned to the Papacy, the banquet had already ended, and Fran was anxiously waiting at the gate. Upon seeing the carriage, he immediately went to greet it.
Fran reached out and helped Shi Qi down from the carriage, then stared at him carefully for a long time, making sure there were no wounds on his body before he relaxed and muttered to himself, "Looks like he was telling the truth..."
His expression had only relaxed for a few seconds before it turned serious again: "Godfather, I have something to say to you."
Seeing his solemn expression and considering what he had just muttered, Shi Qi guessed that it might be related to Badr, so he took Fran back to his bedroom, with Badr following along.
As soon as Fran arrived at Shi Qi's bedroom, he said what he wanted to tell Shi Qi: "Godfather, at the banquet, my body was manipulated by him again."
"I'm so sure because after he returned my body, he had a conversation with me..."
The question arises: "What did He say to you?"
Fran: "He said you went to the contaminated site and he has to come with me to check it out. He told me to stay here and keep the banquet quiet, and he would guarantee your safety."
“But I know your situation, how could I let you go to the contaminated site alone just because of his words? So, I refused him and decided to follow behind and meet up with you.”
"But I didn't expect him to freeze me in place on the spot. I tried my best but couldn't break free... Fortunately, you were not injured."
"By the way, Godfather, have you seen him?"
“Of course he saw it…” That familiar voice reached Fran’s ears again. His eyes widened slightly: “Godfather, did you hear that?”
Shi Qi stared at him silently for a few seconds, then nodded: "I heard you..."
Badr continued, "You should be glad you stayed, otherwise, if you had gone with us, neither of you might have survived."
Fran frowned and said angrily, "What the hell are you?"
Perhaps because it was his own clone, Badr showed no mercy to Fran: "Me? You should first ask yourself what you are..."
System Space 007: "Why does it feel like he's arguing with himself?"
Shi Qi: "I totally agree, it's quite interesting..."
Fran: "What do you mean by that?"
Badr: "What do you mean by 'can'? Perhaps..."
"Wait!" Shi Qi felt that they couldn't let them keep arguing like this, otherwise, if Fran found out his true identity now, who knew what the consequences would be: "Stop arguing!"
As soon as Shi Qi opened his mouth, both Bader and Fran stopped, waiting for him to continue.
So Shi Qi continued, "This esteemed person who hasn't shown himself, why don't you leave first?"
Bader laughed at Shi Qi's distant tone: "Ha, Ister, do you not want him to know the truth?"
Upon hearing Bader's words, Fran instinctively looked at Shi Qi, his eyes wide with surprise: "Godfather, do you know something?"
Shi Qi secretly clicked his tongue. If he had a favorability bar, his feelings for Bader would definitely be dropping drastically by now.
Upon hearing Fran's question, Shi Qi remained silent.
Badr only wanted to sow discord; he didn't really intend to make things difficult for Shi Qi. The next moment, a white light flashed, and a figure appeared in front of Fran.
As the light faded, Fran's eyes widened as the person before him looked exactly like him...
After Fran saw Bader clearly, he immediately turned his gaze to Shi Qi: "Godfather, what's going on? Who is he?" His voice trembled slightly.
