Chapter 266 The Gathering of "Redemption Rose"
At the same time, the members of "Redemption Rose" performed a high-level ritual, offering the humans they had just killed as sacrifices, and prayed to the "True Creator" for a temporary "Shadow Space" to hold this gathering.
During this ceremony, only the leader, the "Angel of Fate," is solidified, with a clear appearance and all the details of her physical form.
Besides, the members in other locations are all black humanoid phantoms. Their faces and figures are not clearly visible, but their expressions can be seen from the virtual features on their faces.
Just as "Angel of Fate" Urolius began introducing the new member Raphael, "True Creator" suddenly cast his gaze upon him.
As the other members bowed to the "true creator," they realized it was because of the new member's gaze, and they immediately began to speculate about the new member's identity.
Because "the Creator of all things" provides them with meeting places, but rarely pays attention to their gatherings.
Raphael followed suit, bowing his head in reverence and praising "the Creator of all things."
He was a little worried that he might anger this "crazy man" by not taking down "Adam's gift".
But Raphael soon realized that, given the tacit understanding between the "true creator" and Adam, the "true creator" would not overturn the table.
The "True Creator" gazed for a few seconds, without issuing any divine pronouncements, before withdrawing its gaze.
Then, Urolius, praising the "true creator," said to everyone, "Let's continue."
"This new member is currently in the Northern Continent. Have you decided on your codename yet?"
The last sentence was said to Raphael.
"I've made up my mind," Raphael said politely. "Darkness."
Ulorus said in a cold tone, "Let us welcome the 'Darkness' into the fold."
The way this welcome was said, delivered in such a tone, made it sound like sarcasm.
However, Raphael didn't seem to care much, and instead smiled and nodded, greeting everyone.
Other members also responded, saying that although they did not know the new member, since they had received the attention of the "Master," they certainly could not offend the other party over such a trivial matter.
Ulorius continued, "Alright, let's begin this gathering."
The vice president of the Aurora Society said to one of the phantom figures, "Spark, please explain why the Ironblood Cross attacked the Aurora Society before?"
Everyone looked at the phantom codenamed "Spark," and they were somewhat surprised by the news.
Raphael also realized that "Spark" was the vice president of the "Iron Cross".
"I had other things to do at the time, and I don't know who gave the order—" "Spark" was about to say this when Freddy interrupted her, "Other things? In which woman's bed?"
Most of the other members had blank expressions, while some smiled.
"Spark" sneered: "I haven't even questioned you about why your subordinates haven't immediately returned the characteristics belonging to the Ironblood Cross. You're just biting around like a mad dog."
The black phantom's voice was somewhat hoarse; it shouldn't be his own voice.
Just as Freddy was about to unleash a torrent of abuse, Urolius said to Spark, "Don't resort to personal attacks."
Spark quickly bowed to the leader and said, "Yes."
However, while admitting his mistake, he also gave Freddy a disdainful look, which completely dispelled the vice president's gloomy demeanor.
Raphael exclaimed: "He truly is a professional 'provocative man.' His eyes, emotions, and body language are all perfectly controlled. Even if it's just a phantom, he can still infuriate others."
Since it was his first time attending a party, Raphael didn't want to reveal too much about himself, so he didn't plan to speak on the topic.
"Soil" Freddy quickly realized that this was a deliberate provocation. He took a deep breath and calmed himself for a second or two before briefly recounting what had happened to the other members.
The member "Nature" appeared to be a woman, and she said to "Soil" Freddy with great interest, "Your subordinates are quite capable, aren't they? A Sequence 5, taking down so many Extraordinary Ones."
Freddy smiled and glanced at "Spark" over there: "Back then, he was only Sequence 6."
Apart from Raphael, the other members were all saints or angels. While such a record wouldn't surprise them, it was enough to pique their interest.
"Spark" replied, "I inquired about this later, and it turns out the Aurora Society broke their promise. They clearly stated that the Saint wouldn't participate in this battle, but the Aurora Society used a Level 1 sealing artifact!"
"Soil," Freddy sneered, "It was agreed that saints and angels would not participate in this matter, but it was never said that saint-level sealing artifacts could not be used."
Several saints of the Aurora Society discussed the Level 1 sealed artifact in Raphael's possession, believing it to be a reward given to Raphael by "the Lord" during the previous exploration of the ruins.
He paused for a moment, then continued, "Don't try to confuse the issue. Why would the Ironblood Cross want to seize the Aurora Society's assets?"
"Spark" fell silent.
At this moment, "Angel of Fate" Urolius said to "Spark," "The Aurora Society is an important organization loyal to the Lord. Whether you received the news or not, it means your control over the Iron-Blooded Cross Society is insufficient!"
"Spark" quickly replied, "I will thoroughly investigate this matter when I get back."
Ulorius said coldly, "Just Cha?"
"Spark" immediately added, "The results of the thorough investigation will be reported to you at the next gathering."
Ulorius nodded, said nothing more, and continued to observe.
Raphael thought to himself, "No one dares to disobey the 'Angel of Fate' as the arbiter of the organization."
At this moment, another member, "Nature," said to "Spark," "I've recently heard some news that there seems to be some internal strife within the Ironblood Cross Society."
Raphael speculated that "Nature" was also a member active on the northern and southern continents.
"Spark" replied, "Yes, but those are conflicts that have accumulated over a long time, and they fall within the normal range."
"Nature" asked, "Is this really normal?"
"Spark" considered for a moment and said, "At least I haven't found any problems."
Raphael's heart skipped a beat, and he said, "Perhaps the biggest problem is that we haven't discovered the problem."
"I recently received word that someone has encountered the evil spirit of the 'Red Angel'."
Everyone was taken aback, as none of them had heard of such news. Then, they all looked at the new member, which meant that the new member had relatively advanced intelligence channels.
Actually, it was the new member who encountered it himself.
"Impossible!" Spark exclaimed immediately, "He has already fallen!"
Raphael shrugged and said, "So it's an evil spirit."
"Spark" said with certainty, "That's impossible."
At this moment, Urolius, the "Angel of Fate," said, "I have seen the evil spirit of the 'Red Angel.'"
