The air in this conference room on the top floor of the Sage's Hall was filled with an elusive silence.

In the center of the conference room, the omni-directional magic screen continued to project the eerie midday religious ritual scene. The screen flickered intermittently, casting the deep gold of the sanctuary around it. The teachers at the circular conference tables surrounding it still hesitated to speak.

A silent beam of light sliced through the air at various angles, causing shadows to intermittently creep up onto Lauren's face.

"Lauren, forget it."

Sitting next to Lauren, the vice-dean Ron patted Lauren on the back.

It's not easy for three clergymen either. Having been through Lance, making it back home safe is a good thing.

When the vice dean started speaking, many teachers tried to ease the awkward atmosphere in the meeting room.

"The Dean, being mixed up with Lan Chi, getting corrupted is perfectly normal. Besides, the fact that all three of them, as clergy, managed to get through this shadow world is a great accomplishment. Consider it evened out..."

Sister Teresa, who is known for her kindest nature, has started speaking up in defense again.

Lance always listened to her class very attentively, which touched her deeply. But it also made her gradually start to feel a little afraid…

After this experience in the Shadow Realm, Teresa was even more convinced of one thing - Hybridians were necessary to their Academy of Wisdom.

If Huberly hadn't kept Lance tethered to her side, diverting his attention and limiting his social space on a regular basis, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

The other new students probably only need to chat with Lance a few times before they get mentally poisoned!

As a half-demon, Huberlian is someone who can get along well with Ranchi while miraculously maintaining his own identity, and can infinitely withstand Ranchi's mental pollution.

In a sense.

It was Huberly who saved the whole class.

>"……”

Loren covered her forehead.

I don't know what to say.

What he was truly afraid of was——

On the very first day, these three officials have already started to be led astray, and they still have to stay with Lance for five more days.

After the five-day Shadow World concludes.

If the saintess saw her three pious clergymen completely fall to evil, becoming strangers.

Narōren couldn't imagine what kind of fury the austere Saintess would unleash...

……

Liechtenstein Castle, the foundation level chapel.

As the ceremony drew to a close, the fervent prayers within the sanctuary gradually subsided, finally settling into a profound stillness.

Above the castle, a wisp of clouds drifted past, and the colored glass windows on the dome dimmed, leaving only a faint glimmer of afterglow.

Every face was etched with satisfaction and a sense of relief, as if after a spiritual tempest they had finally found their harbor.

Looking at the big clock in the church, there was still some time before sunset.

Although the Blood Master won't wake up for a while, it's safer if they gather together to contain the betrayer for two or three hours. Then, as the sun sets, they should disperse and hide.

"Lawyer, what should we do next"

The High Priest of the Church of Fate, Deities of the North Continent, saw that the prayer ceremony was over and asked Ranchi.

Although all three clergymen realized that Lynch's way of praising the goddess was highly inappropriate.

But in the end, one can't help but marvel at Lan Chi's wisdom.

Only justice that can win is true justice.

At this moment, within the sacred hall, Lanchi has become the recognized leader following Fray.

All eyes turned to him naturally.

"I want to hold a lecture on combating cult thought. We must firmly implement and carry out the determination to defeat cult members."

Lance calmly walked towards the long table in the hall and sat down in the center on one side, looking at everyone.

"I will be lecturing and randomly calling on people to answer questions. Some of the questions may be trick questions. If you are not paying attention, you might accidentally give away information or be seen through by others."

After seating themselves in this way, the banquet table transformed into something resembling the principal's personal desk. He sat upright, looking very responsible as he spoke:

But I believe that if everyone has a strong enough determination to fight cults, and after the oath just now is in a relaxed and happy state, they will definitely be able to easily answer my questions. On the contrary, if you are mentally tense and your mind is in chaos, it will be a big mental challenge!

After finishing his words, Lance looked around at everyone.

It seems they are seeking their opinions.

Besides Huberlyan having habitually followed him, she only felt like she had dreamt back to the corridors of Purgatory Academy.

">..."

Everyone was silent for a moment.

"Agree."

"Support."

Everyone responded positively to the call.

Although they had already discovered that Lanchi's nature was a newborn.

But the challengers were happy to play along with him, he was purely trying to get into their heads.

……

The center of the sanctuary.

Lan was sitting alone at a long table.

His voice was steady and firm, each word cutting clearly into people's hearts.

"

Followers of the Revivalist Cult typically exhibit the following characteristics: forceful indoctrination, mental manipulation; rejection of mainstream societal norms and values; exploitation and control of members; restriction of normal interactions with the outside world; and the commission of illegal or unethical acts in the name of religion.

"

He was delivering a righteous and impassioned lecture against cults.

>The harms brought by the Resurrection Church are all-encompassing. It can not only lead to psychological and material damage to individuals, but also have profound effects on social and family relationships, causing personal property loss, mental health issues, and difficulties in social integration. On a societal level, it may lead to social instability, disrupt community harmony, and even trigger serious social events...

All the challengers around were listening intently, their eyes fixed on Lance.

That's how, nearly without pause, Lance kept talking.

He suddenly stopped his speech, raised a finger towards the handsome male guard behind the young master of the Chamber of Commerce, and opened his mouth to ask:

Based on the text I mentioned earlier, which of the following is the name of the Silent Bishop

A Askam, B Arbuckle, C MacArthur, D Lance Wilford

This is a trick question because you never mentioned Bishop Obliteration.

The young master's bodyguard behind him answered clearly.

"Good job, you got it right."

Lance nodded in agreement.

This question-and-answer session couldn't help but make a few others twitch in the corner of their eyes.

This kind of question, if you can't concentrate deeply, you probably won't be able to answer it!

You can't even take a short break during his lecture!

Seemingly sensing everyone's tension, Lance quickly raised his hand to reassure them.

"Please don't worry, as long as you listen to my anti-cult speech without resistance and seriously, you will be able to answer my questions."

Lanche confidently declared, feeling much like a headmaster addressing his students from the podium.

The challengers gradually nodded.

Thus far.

They finally understood the purpose of Lance's speech.

The cultist, whose mindset was already on the verge of collapse, not only had to continue acting for an extended period but also had to put aside their resistance and open their hearts to listen, digest, and absorb Ranch's indoctrination-style anti-cult teachings.

It's hard to describe what kind of newfangled torture this is.

The challengers could no longer imagine the state of mind of the betrayer.

Ranch has been torturing me since this morning.

Those two won't stop until they kill Lance tonight!
