Chapter 297 gradually surfaced
"I'm still alive?" Mags woke up from the endless darkness, his head becoming dizzy for a while.

He remembered that he was tortured to death by the gravity magic of a blue-haired maid, and after fainting, he was awakened by an inexplicable force.
Mags recalled that moment and broke out in a cold sweat.

His heart was crushed by that inexplicable force.

I should be dead, so how come I am still conscious? Is this the legendary hell?
When Magnus's eyes were no longer distracted, he finally saw everything clearly.

This is a garden. The rich fragrance of flowers is more intoxicating than the scented wine of the sea people. He can only recognize one or two out of ten of the surrounding flowers and plants. However, these were quickly forgotten by Magnus. There were several figures in front of him.

A young human being in ordinary clothes was sitting on a swing-like recliner, crossing his legs and squinting his eyes while enjoying a massage.

Standing behind him was a yellow-haired girl who looked exactly like Crimson, massaging his shoulders earnestly.

"Perfect 'puppet man'!" Mags felt his heart twitch.

The thing that Starlight Trading Company had been searching for for decades in vain had suddenly appeared here.

"Finally you woke up. I thought the resurrection failed. Your physical condition is really poor. It didn't take so much effort to resurrect those two little guys last time."

Magnus tried hard to get up, but found that his body seemed to be fixed to the ground and he could not move at all. Only his head could be twisted at will.

"I'm sorry, but I can't let you go right now. My children have something to ask you, so it's better for them to decide what to do with you." Luo Qiu motioned Shen Huang to stop and stand up, clapped his hands and said, "I'll leave this guy to you. You can do whatever you want with him. Don't tell me. I'll go study the little guy you brought back."

"Thank you, Master." Deep Red and Deep Blue expressed their gratitude sincerely.

Luo Qiu touched their heads and slowly left, leaving the venue to the maids.

"You guys"

Mags' throat felt like it was stuck, and he knew he was in the worst situation.

"Hehe, Starlight Trading Company and Black Heaven are really interesting. They must be quite capable to be able to hide under the noses of the Holy See and the three major countries for such a long time." Luo Qiu muttered to himself as he walked.

He knew much more than Magnus.

After all, the third apostle had already told him everything.

Given the third apostle's status in the 'Black Heaven', basically no secrets, big or small, could be hidden from him, so after receiving Luo Qiu's notice, he rushed back as soon as possible and reported the information to Luo Qiu.

Luo Qiu had not expected that the Starlight Trading Company would be so treacherous and even dare to target the Holy See.

You know, the Holy See is the greatest protector of the human kingdom. The reason why alien kingdoms have not launched wars against humans in recent years is because of the deterrence of the Holy See.

There was also the astonishing spear thrown by the chief of the Round Table on the river bank. That spear could be said to have pierced the hearts of all the aliens.

Therefore, the human kingdom can develop normally and ordinary people can enjoy a peaceful life. And the heaven behind the Holy See only needs some human faith. It can be regarded as a mutual benefit. The angels provide force to protect humans, and humans provide faith for the angels to enjoy.

The first apostle of 'Black Heaven' did not think so.

He believed that the existence of Heaven and the Holy See was the biggest cancer in the human kingdom.

Eighty percent of the people in the Principality of Saint Gamma believe in angels, which means that nearly one-third of the human race has beliefs that are not their own. If this continues, when the entire human kingdom is eroded by the belief in heaven, can humans still be called human beings?

Or would it be more appropriate to call him 'Servant of Heaven'?

So after the first apostle Augustus inherited the Starlight Trading Company, he secretly established the terrorist organization "Black Heaven". It was obvious that this was a terrorist organization targeting the Holy See.

Augustus recruited a large number of people to strike against the Holy See, hoping to reduce its influence, but it is obvious that this effect is not that great. The Holy See is an organization that has been established for thousands of years, and there is real heaven supporting it. The depth of its foundation cannot be shaken by a terrorist organization that has been established for less than ten years.

Putting aside other things, the difference in power at the top alone is terrifying. The Holy See has thirteen round tables, each of which is an extraordinary existence, while the Black Heaven has only five apostles, including Bernie Brarick who was promoted some time ago. Moreover, the fourth and fifth apostles are now dead, and the third apostle is half-disabled. The gap between the two sides is even greater.

However, Augustus had a certain basis for daring to go against the Holy See. Yes, it was the "puppet" blueprint.

The 'Puppet Man' is an alchemical puppet blueprint collected by a general manager many generations ago. However, the general manager at that time sealed it up after carefully studying the blueprint because he believed that it was impossible to achieve.

After inheriting the Starlight Trading Company, Augustus found the blueprint from the bottom of its warehouse. After hundreds of years of development, the craftsmanship of the Starlight Trading Company had been greatly improved, and there was a glimmer of possibility to realize the design on the blueprint. So Augustus set up a large-scale factory to carry out research and development, but the progress was not smooth. After repeated setbacks, he had to seek help from races such as the dwarves who were good at craftsmanship and forging.

A normal "puppet" has strength comparable to that of a human glory-level adventurer. If it can be mass-produced, Starlight Trading Company will probably instantly become the number one force in the human kingdom, and even the three major countries and the Holy See will be unable to do anything about it.

At that time, even if the relationship between Black Heaven and Starlight Trading Company was exposed, it would not be a big deal. Moreover, with such combat power, it would not be difficult to expel the Holy See.

Even the chief of the round table would surely die when facing the siege of hundreds of puppets.

Only by mastering this power can human beings truly stand tall in the world on their own, rather than relying on external threats.

Although Luo Qiu somewhat admired the First Apostle, he was mostly speechless. This was obviously the result of a bored kid's second-year syndrome outbreak. Who among ordinary people would be stupid enough to think about these things?
It turns out that I am so idle because I ate too much.

Originally, all this had nothing to do with Luo Qiu. No matter whether it was Starlight Trading Company or the Holy See, it was the same to Luo Qiu who led the human kingdom. As long as humanity was not destroyed, he was too lazy to care about the intrigues of these people.

But the 'puppet man' involved this time is a bit troublesome.

Even if he was living a peaceful retirement life in the manor, those maids would probably not be able to resist getting involved. Although their goals were different, they were dragged into this mess too.

Faced with this situation that could easily affect the entire human kingdom, Luo Qiu had to think carefully about what to do.
