“Recently, the Three Great Civilizations jointly announced that the eradication mission against the Red Moon Church has achieved preliminary results.”

“The United Fleet has eradicated over a hundred planets’ Red Moon Church bases, executing all discovered Red Moon believers and seizing thousands of Transcendent war spoils…”

“Please trust that the Three Great Civilizations will definitely…”

Ellie turned off the news on her communicator and casually tossed it onto the table. She picked up a drink resembling tea and sighed:

“Although I never really believed these news reports, seeing how twisted they can be, I still can’t help but admire them.”

“To speak so sweetly from such data…” Ellie’s tone suddenly shifted.

It’s been over a month since the United Fleet of the Three Great Civilizations completed the eradication mission on this planet.

She doesn’t know how the eradication turned out on other planets, but she knows the situation of her own planet.

Especially now that she has rapidly advanced to Tier Three and learned more about church affairs, and uncovered the inside story, only then did she realize how little the church’s losses actually were at the time.

The so-called eradication of over a hundred planets is true, but exactly how many believers on each planet successfully avoided detection or escaped is not mentioned at all.

Saying all were executed, when translated, actually means not a single one was left alive.

Only the seized war spoils seem to be relatively truthful.

However, she recently heard that even those seized war spoils had some manipulation…

“Of course, isn’t that always how the Three Great Civilizations operate, Main Pastor?”

On the sofa slightly to Ellie’s side, a man dressed in formal attire chuckled lightly, similarly taking a sip from his cup, his expression turning subtle.

“Well, although I don’t know why that Archbishop said you have talent in Pharmacy, Main Pastor, it’s better to improve the taste and flavor of your Potion next time…”

Ellie intended to retort, but after having taken a sip of her own Potion, maintaining her original expression became exceedingly difficult, as even she couldn’t deny the truth.

The man in front of her was not her subordinate, or at least not her open subordinate.

He was a believer from the church, now just recently reaching the 2nd Tier, reportedly one of the believers she intentionally let go before, rewarded with an opportunity for advancement for providing a ship during the escape.

Now that the eradication has concluded, this believer has returned to this planet and is now considered one of her subordinates within the church system.

“Never mind, let’s get back to business. Why are you here to see me?”

Seeing Ellie changing the subject, the man didn’t intend to pursue it further.

“There are two things I’m here to discuss with you.”

“The first is a recent report from the church.”

Following the end of the eradication mission a month ago, our people began returning to rebuild our bases, recently…”

The man meticulously reported the recent development status of the church on this planet.

The content was not much, mainly about regathering those eradicated bases, replenishing resources, and missionaries.

After all, the bases on this planet that were eradicated were just the more public and unavoidable ones; even if they were eradicated, many ordinary believers were not entirely wiped out.

The church definitely won’t give up on these.

Of course, the rebuilt bases are no longer in their original locations.

As the ruler of this planet, even though she is only Tier Three now, she has become the de facto manager of the church district on this planet, and all these reconstruction projects are directly managed by her.

These are all part of her contribution for further advancement!

“The second thing is an order from the church.”

“An order?” Ellie looked at the man puzzled.

“Yes, reportedly an oracle from the Lord of Red Moon, instructing us to send people to participate, the Lord of Red Moon intends to retaliate for the recent eradications!”

With that, the man took out a communicator beside him, projecting a virtual screen with a simple plan presented.

Because the battle hasn’t formally started, and the participants have not been finalized, the plan only includes simple objectives and a rough outline.

“Have church members ambush the eradication fleet of the Three Great Civilizations? Those fleets are not weak, if those warships indeed partake, even if we put the battlefield on my planet, my defense fleet couldn’t last long.”

Ellie frowned, waiting for the man’s follow-up.

“The church’s order mentions that this time, Insect Swarms will assist, and even those ‘Cardinals’ will send people to oversee. We only need to focus on the ground combat.”

The man operated the virtual screen, adjusting the plan to the relevant section.

“Insect Swarm, so the church really does have the ability to control Insect Swarms, I thought it was just online rumors…”

“Ha, the Insect Swarm is nothing but beasts, even I can control Low-tier beasts, it’s not impossible for those bishops to control powerful Insect Swarms.”

The man sighed secretly, as he had only received the announcement from his higher-ups in the “Gray Gang” a few days ago, confirming that the ability to control creatures also applies to the Insect Swarm.

According to the report, information was provided by other “Gray Gang” members who infiltrated the church like him, enabling the Empire to secretly capture a Fifth Tier “Divine Artifact”. Naturally, this is its name within the Red Moon Church now.

Using that Divine Artifact, the Empire specifically went to the frontline to test, confirming that multiple Insect Swarms can be forcibly controlled with Fifth Tier Divine Arts.
