Instigator and Protector of Violence-Chapter 287: Revelation

"You should be well aware that we possess the right to question, let us in."

The people from the Kingdom Defense Bureau were trying to exert pressure.

But the people from the Sea God Church were also very firm, responding, "Then you should also know, we have the exemption right, especially during the religious assembly. Even if the King comes, he can't enter if he's not a follower."

This left the people from the Kingdom Defense Bureau speechless, forcing them to step aside, though they continued to glower at the vast headquarters of the Sea God Church.

All of this was observed by Ethan, who discreetly avoided most people's gazes and entered the headquarters of the Sea God Church through a side door.

The arrival of the Kingdom Defense Bureau was all part of the plan.

Today, the interior of the Sea God Church was indeed packed with people.

When Ethan had come before, he had felt that the Sea God Church's headquarters was built excessively large, and it did not seem like they had that many people.

But now looking at it, the actual number of their followers is not small, merely dispersed usually.

Everyone was quietly discussing something.

Ethan listened for a moment; there was no need to mention the content of the discussions, of course it was about the massive waves last night, the key was people's attitudes.

Unquestionably, the followers were enthusiastic.

They believed this was a divine revelation, that Isis was going to awaken.

Isis had slumbered for many years.

Now, He was returning. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

The mood was high and could be utilized.

Under the guidance of a priest, Ethan finally reached the central cathedral.

However, he still did not use the main entrance, as it was already filled with believers. Ethan was guided to a prayer room inside the cathedral from the side.

In the prayer room, Ethan met Maurice and Johnny Blackbird.

As soon as Maurice saw Ethan, he stood up excitedly.

"Oh, Ethan, you're here. How about last night, did you feel it too?"

He looked at Ethan with anticipation.

"Of course, I once again sank to the ocean floor."

Ethan nodded.

Maurice nodded as well.

"So did I, I once more heard His call."

"Depp as well."

He quickly added.

Johnny Blackbird naturally smiled and nodded.

In reality, he knew nothing of the sort, but he had been mingling in the underworld for many years, a notorious criminal who could rob a bank in just over a minute.

His acting skills and adaptability were top-notch.

He said the divine told him he must be embraced by all the followers to hear the oracle.

This made sense; since the Sea God had not awakened for so many years, perhaps His power was insufficient and needed more followers to support Him.

Thus, the Pope convened this religious assembly.

Of course, this idea was not solely conceived by Johnny Blackbird; it was completed with Maurice's assistance.

Because what Ethan told Maurice was to assist Johnny Blackbird in gaining more followers' help.

Upon hearing this, Johnny Blackbird understood.

"Please sit, I'll go invite the High Priest and the Holy Father."

Maurice, as a priest, offered proactively to fetch them.

Leaving Ethan and Johnny Blackbird alone in the prayer room.

The two of them did not sit idly by but began a casual conversation as if they were strangers who had to get acquainted for a common cause.

Even if someone was observing them, they would not detect anything unusual between them.

In reality, Ethan was secretly giving Johnny Blackbird further instructions.

Johnny Blackbird, after all, was not a Sea God believer, and could not be instructed remotely, but at this close distance, Ethan had no problem.

By the time Maurice brought back the others, Ethan had already finished communicating with Johnny Blackbird. Maurice brought Heigen and Yelit.

It seemed this matter was up to the two of them.

And there was another person.

That person wore a pure black priest's robe and on his head was a crown resembling seaweed, or a human hand, or a serpent's head.

The overall appearance was like the Sea God Sect's prayer ceremony, with the constant swaying hands in front.

This person, not yet fifty, was clean-shaven and appeared very profound, especially his eyes, truly as deep as the ocean.

As if after looking for a while, one would be drawn in.

If Ethan hadn't met Charlie and knew what he looked like, it would be hard to imagine that this could be Charlie's brother.

They looked nothing alike.

Charlie appeared very much like a priest, whereas his brother, the current Sea God Church's Pope Edwin Villantis, resembled more of a politician.

"Ethan, you're here. I've heard Charlie mention you; it's just as he said."

Edwin glanced at Ethan, saying something that sounded ambiguous.

Ethan had no idea what he meant, only felt a force swirling around him.

"It's an honor."

He bowed slightly in respect.

"So, Mr. Ethan, did you also receive a new divine revelation?"

Heigen inquired to Ethan.

"That's right, the divine revelation I received is..."

Ethan spoke as though confirming, and after seeing no objections, he continued.

"Follow the direction of the sea breeze."

Follow the direction of the sea breeze?

What kind of divine revelation is that?

But thinking about last night's sudden storm and the possible ensuing typhoon, everyone seemed to understand.

Perhaps it meant Ethan should follow Depp.

After all, Depp was the real core.

"Alright, since everyone is here, let's proceed. The believers are already waiting. Depp, are you ready?"

Heigen looked at Johnny Blackbird.

Johnny Blackbird nodded; having received Ethan's instructions, he had nothing to be flustered about.

Only, the instructions given by Ethan seemed strange to him.

But this was all orchestrated by Ethan; what he could do was follow Ethan's idea.

He had always been someone who could hold his ground and was very adept at trusting others.

Otherwise, he couldn't have ingrained himself among the natives in the central region as a citizen of the Kingdom, even becoming their leader.

The group passed through numerous doors, finally arriving at the enormous church.

Ethan and Maurice were situated in the front row, while Johnny Blackbird was taken to the forefront, also the highest point.

There stood a statue of the Sea God, below which was today's main stage.

As Johnny Blackbird slowly made his entrance, the whispers in the church intensified, yet remained unexpectedly tranquil, flowing like a stream.

The entire church seemed as if it was underwater, with everyone being a part of the sea.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I understand you have many questions, so now, let Mr. Depp, the chosen one of God, unveil the answers for you!"
