Chapter 170: The Visitor from Pinocchini!
When Logan heard Maya Archbishop's invitation, he immediately frowned. "You want to kill the Pope? I thought you were one of his close allies."
Maya Archbishop laughed coldly. "There are thirteen Holy Cities, and each is managed by an Archbishop. But I, the Archbishop of the First Holy City, have always been just a subordinate. It's better to say I'm just a powerless follower than a close ally of the Pope."
Logan noticed the bitterness in Maya Archbishop's words and narrowed his eyes. "As a representative of the Human Federation, getting involved in an assassination attempt on the Pope is very dangerous. Why should I help you?"
Maya Archbishop smiled calmly. "You're not trying to help Fischl, are you? I have a way to make her 100% pass the 'Land of Sins' supernova challenge."
When Logan heard that Maya Archbishop had a way to help Fischl, he suddenly became interested. "Tell me about it."
Seeing that Logan hadn't completely refused, Maya Archbishop smiled and waved her hand.
Suddenly, the four priests that Logan had just killed with the "Blade of Souls" appeared again behind her.
Maya Archbishop saw Logan's surprised expression and smiled. "You probably thought what just happened was an illusion. But I'm telling you, this is my battle style, called [Summon Spirit].It can bring back the souls of the dead and put them into their old bodies, making them come back to life and obey you completely."
Logan raised an eyebrow. "If you have such a battle style, you could destroy all thirteen Holy Cities by yourself. Why don't you just become the Pope?"
Maya Archbishop smiled, explaining, "This battle style isn't as perfect as you think, but it's still powerful. The resurrected people can only stay for a limited time. How long they last depends on their strength in life and the mental power of the familiar tamer."
After hearing this, Logan nodded silently. This ability could really help Fischl pass the challenge.
If he secretly brought back the opponents Fischl had killed, and let them help her clear the 'Land of Sins,' she would definitely pass the test.
Thinking of this, Logan looked at Maya Archbishop and said, "Come to my room. Show me that what you said is true."
With that, Logan let out a cold snort. His huge mental power turned into countless [Blade of Souls] and instantly sliced everything around them.
By the time Maya Archbishop realized what was happening, the room they were in had already been cut apart. The surroundings turned back into nothingness.
Seeing this, Maya Archbishop frowned and said in surprise. "This kid still has hidden power? Interesting!"
She then started to fade away, along with everything around her.
Logan returned to the real world and immediately looked around.
At that moment, Kerparos was still holding three big bones and licking them. His messy look didn't look fake at all.
Logan saw his lazy look and threw three pieces of grilled meat at his face. "Did anything strange happen while I was sleeping?"
Kerparos, with three heads, thought for a moment and shook his heads. "Nothing strange. Except that your morning erection lasted longer than usual."
Logan rolled his eyes and started checking every corner of the room.
There must have been some rune arrays or magical items set up in the room, or else Maya would be terrifying.
Just a moment ago, Logan had immediately used "Space Sensing" to look for Maya. Within ten kilometers, there was absolutely no sign of her.
Logan didn't believe anyone could drag a target into an illusion from ten kilometers away without using any tools. If someone had that power, they would have already become the Pope.
But no matter how hard Logan searched, he found nothing strange.
At this moment, Maya Archbishop had already arrived at Logan's door. She slowly opened it, looked around the mess inside, and her lips curled up to her ears.
Logan saw the smug look on Maya's face and gave up searching. He just dropped onto the sofa. "You came fast."
Maya noticed the annoyance in Logan's voice and smiled, then called out her familiar.
Logan looked at the big-eyed creature floating in front of him and immediately understood Maya's power.

...
After seeing this information, Logan narrowed his eyes and stared at Maya Archbishop with caution.
Maya didn't notice anything strange, and continued to introduce her Nightmare Demon with a smile. "This is the real one that pulled you into the illusion. Once it remembers your name, no matter how far away you are, it can still bring you into a dream."
Logan listened to Maya talking nonsense and rolled his eyes.
He admitted that the Nightmare Demon's power was strong, but that strength was based on having enough information.
And even if you were pulled into a dream, it wasn't hard to escape if your mental power was strong enough.
Seeing that Logan wasn't afraid of her Nightmare Demon, Maya stopped explaining and simply summoned a zombie.
She stood in front of Logan and shot an Inferno Ray, killing the zombie.
Then she started chanting, as if reading a spell.
After she finished, the zombie she had just killed suddenly stood up and obeyed her completely.
"Kneel!" Maya ordered. The burned zombie actually knelt on the ground.
Then Maya chanted again, and the burn marks on the zombie started to disappear.
Logan's eyes lit up at the sight.
If he could heal the wounds of a monster, that would be a big deal.
A broken body, even if revived, could still only be weak.
But if the wounds were healed, the revived body could fight almost as well as it did before.
At that moment, Logan's expression softened a little. "Tell me your plan."
Maya saw that Logan wasn't refusing and smiled, pulling out a space ring and handing it to Logan. "It's simple. Take the dead bodies inside this ring and bring them into the [Land of Sins]."
Logan took the ring, checked it for a moment, and his eyes widened in shock.
He turned to Maya and said in a cold tone: "So the real mastermind behind the rebellion wasn't Milo Archbishop… it was you!"
Maya laughed lightly, covering her face. "It doesn't matter to you, does it?"
Logan stared at her and warned, "But if you mess with me and my friends, that's another story."
Seeing Logan's serious tone, Maya stopped joking and said seriously, "Don't worry. Our goals don't conflict. We won't bring enemies upon ourselves."
Then Maya took out a stone tablet and handed it to Logan. "This is the 'Summon Spirit' battle style. You can learn it. Hope our cooperation goes well."
"Let's hope so," Logan said coldly, took the tablet, and didn't even look at it before snorting.
Just then, he raised his hand and sent Maya Archbishop flying ten kilometers away.
Maya hadn't even had time to react before the world around her turned into a blur of mosaic tiles.
Then, a strong, unpleasant smell hit her nose, making her feel sick.
She looked up and saw a group of male priests running away, holding their pants, shouting."Oh my god!"
Realizing something was wrong, Maya quickly scanned her surroundings and nearly dropped her jaw.
She was standing in front of a men's bathroom urinal, facing a group of priests who were all peeing.
Seeing this, Maya was almost crazy. She gritted her teeth and shouted."Get out!" and quickly drove away the priests who were too scared to leave.
Once everyone was gone, Maya covered her face and walked out of the bathroom.
But the moment she stepped outside, she saw a group of priests in doctor's uniforms pointing and talking about her.
She looked up at the sign and realized in shock—this was the men's sexually transmitted disease clinic of The Black Church.
In an instant, Maya felt like ants were crawling all over her body. She wanted to burn her clothes and take ten showers right away.
Furious, Maya summoned her Nightmare Demon and forced all the priests around her into a dream.
"Make them forget what happened today!"
After receiving Maya's order, the Nightmare Demon looked cruel and turned into bright beams of light, shooting into the priests' bodies.
Maya looked around with a disgusted expression, sneered, and said."Logan! We'll settle this later!"
Far away, at the border between The Black Church and the Human Federation.
Two women in black tight suits were sitting on the edge of a cliff, calmly watching everything in The Black Church Holy City.
One of them, a tall woman with red hair and horns, lowered her telescope and spoke into her collar radio: "This is Nico. I found a forbidden item. I request forced containment."
Beside her, a cute girl with a single horn, short blue hair, and a youthful face blinked her eyes and added into the radio: "This is Bobbi. I found a transformed one. I request recruitment. Bobbi wants to be his boss!"
As soon as the two girls finished speaking, the radio crackled with a rough voice: "Bring them to Pinocchini."
