Chapter 337 The real mole
"I heard that there does seem to be a space rift guarded by a paladin within the kingdom that leads to the demon world."
"The magic eyes of the Judge team must have come from there."
"But I may not be able to help you with this matter."
"It seems that the acting legion commander, Mr. Hobert, has some prejudice against me, so I don't know much about the Holy Knights Legion."
"You can only hope that the strange Mr. Hobert is willing to help you. Of course, I think the probability is not high."
Based on what Cross knew about Hobert, this calamity-level magician didn't seem like the helpful type.
Normally, the two met in the cathedral, but Herbert never took the initiative to talk to him.
Even if he tried to strike up a conversation, Hobart seemed to be indifferent.
"Sometimes, he doesn't even give Michelle face. He is not an easy person to get along with."
Miss had met Hobert once before in the city of Rezewitt.
It wasn't as cold as Cross described.
He just couldn't tell which of Hobert's words were true and which were false.
"As long as there are clues..."
No matter what kind of person Hobert is, Miss must give it a try as long as there is a clue.
"I have some clues about Licia's matter now. There are only Nora and Hestice left..."
Seeing that Miss was immersed in thoughts and talking to himself for a long time, Cross could no longer sit still.
He couldn't leave Miss here for too long, or Michelle would notice something was wrong.
"You should first find a way to survive the God King's gambling game. If you can't survive, no one can save you."
Miss looked at Cross again, "Don't panic, we just need to find enough helpers to kill Tartarus before the time limit is up. What I'm doing now is to find helpers."
Cross snorted coldly, "Panic? How could I be panicked? I am very calm now."
He felt strange that he was suddenly comforted by Miss, who was a few years younger than him.
He found that Miss had remained calm since he entered the door.
Even such a huge secret as the bet between the two gods could not shake Miss's state of mind.
Only Licia's affairs could cause his emotions to fluctuate.
Cross was puzzled, because it should be Miss who should be in a panic.
Why is it the other way around now?
"Trust my judgment. Now I also need to know the news about Hestis and Nora. Do you have any idea?" Miss asked.
"Nora doesn't know, but as for the witch, she should be in the city of Rezewitt in the Borderlands now." Cross did not hide it.
When Miss heard the news, he immediately became nervous.
He had heard that the main force of the Holy Knights had surrounded the city of Rezewitt. If Hestis was really there, the situation would not be optimistic.
Cross saw a serious look on Miss's face again, again because of his partner.
"Don't panic. The witch and the members of the Tree Organization have sent the residents of Rezewitt City into the World Tree. The Paladins dare not rush in rashly. Michelle is extremely worried about this matter."
After hearing what Cross said, Miss suddenly realized something.
"Did you tell the Tree Organization in advance about the Paladins' plan to surround Rezewitt City?"
Mis recalled what Silai of Sojer City had said.
The last time Hestis returned to Sogel City in anger was after she met Baron Mista in Vita City.
He guessed that Baron Mista must have told Hestis about the Paladin's future plans, which was why Hestis was angry and decided to go to Rezewitt City to protect her people.
The reason why Baron Mista knew the church's plan in advance must be that there was an insider who leaked the information.
Miss originally guessed that the traitor was Nobo, but now it seems that it must be Cross.
The change in Cross's expression confirmed his guess.
"It's really you."
Cross was shocked, he had clearly concealed this matter very well.
Not to mention Michelle, even the leader of the Tree Organization, Baron Mista, failed to discover any clues.
He couldn't help but look at Miss. It had only been a short time since they met, but he already had a new respect for Miss.
Miss was even more impressed by Cross's ability to disguise.
It was not easy to hide under Michelle's nose for so long.
Before leaving Vita City last time, in a conversation between Miss and Baron Mista, Baron Mista mentioned that he regretted not killing Cross.
Now that I think about it, Cross not only deceived the enemy, but also confused his teammates.
"Kross, thank you again. I was planning to go directly to the Cathedral to ask Michelle about Licia and the others."
Cross collected his thoughts and said seriously, "The Cathedral? You must not go there. It must be a trap."
Miss nodded, "It could indeed be a trap, so there's no need to go there now. There are other places waiting for me."
His next goal is to go to the demon world to find Licia first.
Cross knew what Miss was thinking, "If you want to go to the demon world to rescue people, you should find the entrance first."
He believed that Miss had the courage to enter the demon world, but he didn't think Hobart would provide help.
Mis patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "I have my own way to solve it."
Seeing Miss's confident expression, Cross began to admire his fellow man more and more.
"The Demon Realm is not like the Cathedral. It may be more dangerous there."
Mis's eyes were firm, "No matter how dangerous it is, we must go."
Cross became serious. "If one day, Cassius and Shana were in danger like this, would you also save them without hesitation?"
Miss didn't hesitate at all, "Of course, they are my partners."
Cross exhaled a breath and put away the wooden box that was going to hold the devil's heart.
“Let’s make a bet. If you can find the entrance to the Demon Realm and enter it within a month, the heart will remain with you.
If you can't find it, you must give the heart to me for safekeeping."
