Matt looked genuinely surprised.
In his view, the Vatican was God's territory, the home of other deities. He didn't think even Mr. Zhang Wei could sense anything there.
Meanwhile.
Unaware of Matt's thoughts, after speaking, Zhang Wei glanced at Zhang Chao beside him. Zhang Chao looked back in surprise.
Then.
Both spoke simultaneously:
"Good heavens, you've opened your divine eye again, Zhang Chao."
"Holy cow, I just spouted some nonsense, and it actually hit the mark? That's the Vatican, God's domain. Even ghosts dare to go there? That's incredibly brave. What kind of ghost is it?"
Zhang Chao's mouth hung open.
Hearing this, Zhang Wei replied:
"It's more than hitting the mark; you've completely torn it open."
Before he finished speaking.
Zhang Wei turned to the bewildered Matt and asked:
"By the way, Matt, what's happening in your Vatican? Isn't that the Holy See's main headquarters? Why are there major events occurring? Is it caused by ghosts, as Zhang Chao just said?"
He only asked Matt if there were major events in the Vatican, not specifically if ghosts were causing them. He wanted to know if it was indeed caused by ghosts as Zhang Chao suggested.
In response.
Although he didn't know the full details, Matt still replied, nodding:
"It was indeed caused by ghosts, and it happened in the last few days. The Vatican has dispatched the entire Holy Inquisition Knights for this matter."
As soon as he said this.
Even Zhang Wei and the others looked at him with surprise.
Although they were not priests of the Holy See, they knew what the Inquisition Knights were.
They were the strongest group of demon hunters cultivated by the Vatican. The weakest member had to be at least at the level of a top-tier Red Cardinal ghost. They were granted the title of Inquisition Knight by the Pope and were specifically responsible for handling difficult exorcism cases and traitors for the Vatican.
The fact that the entire Inquisition Knights were mobilized was enough to show the seriousness of the current situation, which must have threatened the Vatican, otherwise, they wouldn't have acted so decisively.
Inevitably.
Zhang Chao couldn't help but ask:
"Damn, the entire Inquisition Knights? What happened? Did some ghost organization attack?"
Facing the question.
Matt didn't play coy and replied with a serious face:
"It's not a ghost organization; it's the Dark Holy See."
As soon as he said this.
Zhang Wei and the others understood. If it was the Dark Holy See, then it was indeed possible for the Vatican to mobilize the Inquisition Knights.
As everyone knew.
God and Satan were the embodiments of light and darkness. The Dark Holy See had always been the arch-nemesis of the Vatican. Both were established almost at the same time, and their conflict had continued for thousands of years, never ceasing.
The Dark Holy See was an evil organization that worshipped Satan. They detested the Holy See, which worshipped God, viewing them as the greatest obstacle. The Holy See felt the same way. The two sides had engaged in numerous major battles, akin to the eternal struggle between heaven and hell.
Tracing back through history.
The establishment of the Inquisition Knights was originally to deal with the Dark Holy See, to judge the forces of hell.
Thinking of this.
Recalling some of the history of the Holy See and the Dark Holy See he had seen on the Wei Dao Division forum.
Suddenly.
Zhang Wei looked at Matt and asked:
"Did the Dark Holy See conduct another large-scale infernal summoning?"
As he asked.
Matt nodded directly:
"Yes, Mr. Zhang Wei, you are indeed prescient. You predicted this? It's true that the Dark Holy See conducted a large-scale infernal summoning ritual. Other high-ranking priests in the Vatican said that the Dark Holy See summoned many fallen angels and undead to the human world this time."
"Although I don't know the exact number, it's definitely a lot. Because what happened in the Vatican recently was the death of some priests, killed by fallen angels. One of them, a cardinal, was almost killed; he was besieged by about ten fallen angels."
"Fortunately, it happened in the Vatican, and the Inquisition Knights arrived. With the blessing of angelic power granted by the Pope to the Inquisition Knights, they managed to drive away the fallen angels."
Regarding Matt's words.
Zhang Wei was not surprised. He knew that the Inquisition Knights were originally established to deal with the fallen angels summoned by the Dark Holy See. They were the closest living forces to Satan, and ordinary demon-hunting priests could not deal with them. However, the Inquisition Knights could contend with them, as they were granted the power of angels by the Pope.
At this moment.
Zhang Chao, who also knew this basic knowledge, nodded and sighed:
"No wonder the Inquisition Knights were mobilized; it turns out it was because of the fallen angels. Fallen angels are the strongest elite troops under Satan, very troublesome and difficult to deal with."
"Indeed, fallen angels are quite difficult to deal with."
Zhang Wei agreed from the side.
He recalled encountering fallen angels in the United States before. They required more effort to deal with compared to other ghosts.
However.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the corners of Zhang Chao's and Matt's mouths twitch.
Zhang Chao: "..."
Matt: "..."
Wu Nian: "Amitabha."
The next second.
Zhang Chao rolled his eyes at Zhang Wei and raised his middle finger, saying:
"Damn it, you shouldn't be saying that. You're the least qualified to say that. How many fallen angels have you killed? I've heard all about it. They say you kill fallen angels like chickens. Damn, thinking about it, I finally understand why you could defeat Abraham so easily. You're probably a nemesis to hell, aren't you? Satan's arch-enemy isn't God, it's you, right?"
Matt also found it amusing and exasperating:
"Mr. Zhang Wei, I still remember the time you killed fallen angels."
Wu Nian also rarely commented:
"Amitabha, those fallen angels you killed would probably be quite happy if they heard your words. At least they wouldn't have died in vain."
Afterward.
Zhang Wei and the others chatted for a while longer.
During this time.
Matt told Zhang Wei and the others a lot about the Dark Holy See and the Vatican, including the recent events that had occurred in the Vatican.
"This time, the Dark Holy See is different from their usual minor skirmishes. It feels like there will be a major move. Summoning over a dozen fallen angels at once to attack a cardinal in the Vatican, even though the Dark Holy See is the Vatican's arch-nemesis, is too provocative."
Matt said this and then added seriously:
"So, Mr. Zhang Wei, you'd better be careful when you go to the Vatican this time. Although I feel quite safe in the Vatican, it's still best to be cautious."
Zhang Chao chimed in:
"Zhang Wei, you should be careful. Don't forget, you've killed several fallen angels. If the fallen angels find out about you, they might come seeking revenge."
Lu Lianxue tugged on Zhang Wei's hand:
"Zhang Wei, what Zhang Chao and the others are saying is right. Although fallen angels are also angels, they are not as easygoing as angels. They hold grudges, and there have been instances of fallen angels retaliating."
