People in Terra, poor and weak but invincible

Chapter 973 Patia is a little bird, so she is destined to...

The setting sun gradually disappeared on the west side of the land, and darkness climbed over the earth.

The holy city of Lateran stands in the darkness, but the bright lights in the city make the darkness impervious to touch, like a resilient reef in the waves.

However, when light and darkness coexist, if the light cannot completely dispel the darkness, its existence will only make the place shrouded in darkness appear deeper.

The Requiem Church, where the Sakotas rest after death, is located in the suburbs outside the holy city, right on the border where darkness and light meet.

A thin Sakota man dressed in monk's clothes stood in front of the door of the Requiem Church, holding a dim lantern in his hand.

The candlelight in the wick was burning hard.

The man stood in the narrow light, gazing at the bright holy city in the distance.

The light in his hand could not dispel the darkness behind him, nor could it blend into the glory of the holy city in front of him.

"Guide, it's already very late at night."

The door of the Requiem Church was pushed open, and a nun inside whispered a reminder.

The thin man turned around, and the light wings behind him were much more delicate than those of ordinary Sakota, like one carefully carved work of art after another, gently drooping behind him.

"Has Patia not come back yet?" the man asked.

The nun explained: "She took people to the city to look for the little girl named Cecilia. I'm afraid it will take a few days to bring her out safely."

The man nodded and continued:

"I hope Patia will not hurt the child. Her mother is a pitiful person. I don't know what the future holds for them, but I hope I can do my best to help them."

The nun hesitated for a moment, but still asked:

"Leader, how are you going to place that child?"

Before the man could answer, a voice suddenly came from the darkness:

"I advise you not to think about that little girl named Cecilia."

"Oren?" the nun asked in surprise, "Why are you here so late?"

Oren, who had green hair like a potted plant, walked out of the darkness and shrugged.

"I had dinner with my new friend, which took up some time, but there were some things that couldn't be delayed, so I had to stay up late and travel."

The man looked at Oren and asked, "What news did you receive?"

"Andorn, if you don't want to be punched into the ground and unable to be pulled out, you'd better get Patia back quickly."

Oren reminded Andorn with a serious face: "Qi Yan is here, and he has loudly stated that Cecilia is under his protection."

"Qi Yan..."

Andorn's grey eyes drooped slightly when he heard the name.

The evening breeze blew his short gray hair and the lantern in his hand, causing the already weak light to shake, making Andorn's face flicker between light and dark.

Seeing Andoen lost in thought, Oren pretended to suddenly remember something, patted his head and spoke again:

"It's not just Patia. I'd say you should run away too."

"What?" Andorn was puzzled.

"I know about your past with Fiameta." Oren said with a wry smile, "And Qi Yan was invited by Fiameta to attend the World Summit this time. Do you think Fiameta will miss such a good opportunity?

Now the two of them haven't met yet, you have a chance to escape. After the two of them meet, given Fiametta's impatience, I'm afraid he will come to you with Qi Yan in one hand and a sack in the other."

Andorn said nothing, but the nun next to him was obviously frightened.

She was very familiar with the legend of Qi Yan. When she heard that she and others were involved in matters related to Qi Yan, she suddenly became panic-stricken.

"Guide, we can't provoke Qi Yan. Legend has it that he likes to kill people by stabbing them into the ground and suffocating them to death!" said the nun in horror.

Andorn pressed his hand towards the nun, signaling her to stay calm.

Then Andorn looked at Oren and nodded:

"Thank you for your reminder. If something happens to me, I hope you can get my brothers and sisters out of Rutland. I know you have the ability to do so."

"Can't you really see Qi Yan not crying?" Oren didn't know how to evaluate Andorn for a moment.

"I came back to seek the truth." Andorn explained, "I must see the Pope, but I have also heard the legend of Qi Yan. If I can meet him, maybe I can also get the truth."

Oren asked back, "And then you died. What's the point of knowing the truth?"

"The truth is more important than me." Andoin said seriously, "If my death can bring the truth and help lost brothers and sisters find their way, then it will be worth it."

Oren smiled.

He was not surprised by the answer.

"Maybe I can help you. My new friend likes to do business." Oren said enthusiastically, "If he can catch a villain who angered Qi Yan, he can get amazing benefits with his ability, and even talk to Qi Yan directly."

"You want your friends to capture me in exchange for the opportunity to contact Qi Yan?" Andorn acted very calmly.

But the nun was furious, and she rushed forward, pointed at Oren and shouted:

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

"You have misunderstood."

Oren quickly raised his hands in surrender: "I want to help you talk to Qi Yan, not to have you tied up and sent to the Holy City Prison, so Andorn can't be the one who angered Qi Yan, we need to choose someone else.

Besides, time is very tight. When my friend takes action, I will also try my best to find Fiammetta and prevent her from meeting Qi Yan. We have a lot of work to do."

"I don't accept this behavior." Andorn shook his head.

"Then you'd better call Patia back quickly." Oren smiled brightly.

……

……

Stephen's District General Hospital.

Felia lay uneasily on the hospital bed, tightly holding Cecilia's little hand beside her.

The ward was very quiet, with only the mother and daughter. Qi Yan just came back to take a look and disappeared again. Qi Lin also went to contact the people in Rhodes Island.

Until this moment, Felia still felt that his experience of the day was too dreamy.

Her body, which had already been stretched to its limit due to her illness, managed to recover some strength thanks to Qi Lin's treatment and the protection of the cool breath injected into her body.

But what was most unbelievable to Felia was still the process of her admission to the hospital.

Qi Yan, who had returned, just said hello, and Qi Lin picked her up and walked out of the room. Qi Yan also followed behind, holding Cecilia's hand.

The streets were empty, without a single soul in sight.

The hospital corridor was empty and there was no one in sight.

She didn't even need to go through the hospitalization procedures. She lay directly in the quietest ward in the hospital and watched Qi Lin use the communicator to report the medicines and equipment needed for treatment. Someone immediately delivered them to her outside the door, then disappeared without opening the door.

The whole process happened just as Qi Yan had promised, and no outsider saw the mother and daughter.

Felia couldn't imagine what kind of terrifying power could achieve this.

Qi Yan's nonchalant figure became increasingly taller in Felia's heart, but it did not give her any feeling of oppression. Instead, it only gave her a sense of security and ease that she had not felt for a long, long time.

"Mom, let me tell you a story."

Cecilia's voice interrupted Felia's thoughts.

Felia gently stroked her daughter's long, smooth hair and said softly, "Thank you, my Cecilia, but you didn't bring a storybook. Did you memorize the story?"

Cecilia shook her head:

"No, it's a new story Qi Yan told me. I wrote it down. It's called the healthy old lynx in the medical department who often uses riddles to cover up his shame."

Felia: ???

Qi Yan's figure, which had just grown tall in the mother's heart, suddenly collapsed.

"Well, Mom is a little tired, so I won't listen."

Fearing that she would hear something outrageous from her lovely little daughter, Felia decisively chose to escape from reality.

As long as she didn't really hear it, it's as good as nothing!

"Oh."

Cecilia nodded obediently.

But soon she couldn't help but share, "Mom, Qi Yan also said that he would teach me to sing when he has time. He said there is a song called "Rutland Dessert Carol" that is very suitable for me. When I learn it, I can coax you to sleep."

"Well... Mom is looking forward to it."

When Felia saw that a relatively normal name finally appeared this time, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Hearing her mother's agreement, Cecilia immediately showed an excited expression.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the ward, followed by a woman's voice that she tried to suppress.

"Felia, open the door, I'm here to take you and your daughter to find the guide."
