Chapter 57 Revealing Identity, The Fountain of Madness
"Teacher Tang Yue, you're from the Judgment Committee, right?"
Ling Tianyu didn't mince words and immediately revealed the "secret of heaven".
"How did you know?" Tang Yue asked in shock. Did this girl think she had hidden it well?
"Uh, teacher, you're being too obvious. How could I not guess?" Ling Tianyu said helplessly.
"It seems so..." Tang Yue put herself in his shoes, her face flushed slightly, and she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
It was her first time serving as a judge, and she had little experience, so she treated it like a vacation.
The fact that an intern judge like her was assigned here shows that the higher-ups don't really value this small place, Bocheng.
"Since you know I'm with the Trial Committee, is there anything you need me to report to them?" Teacher Tang Yue asked.
"Yes and no... What I want is you..." Ling Tianyu said, sensing that something was wrong.
"What are you thinking? I'm your teacher!" Tang Yue said angrily, her face flushed and her arms crossed.
She seems to have misunderstood something.
"No... what I mean is, we need your mid-level mage strength to help Bo City get through this crisis!" Ling Tianyu sighed and hurriedly explained.
Teacher Tang Yue is at least six or seven years older than him. This age difference would be acceptable if the roles were reversed, but with the roles reversed, Ling Tianyu felt it was better to forget about it.
I wonder what those main characters in TRW are thinking.
"Oh, is that what you mean?" Tang Yue awkwardly withdrew her hand.
That's true. When she first met her classmates in class, Ling Tianyu's reaction was the most indifferent. The appreciation in his eyes was so pure that it made her feel comfortable.
"So, what do you want me to do? Also, is Bocheng facing any threat?" Tang Yue asked.
"The Black Vatican is about to make its move on Bo City!" Ling Tianyu said in a serious tone.
"Really?" Tang Yue's first reaction was disbelief. As a professional judge, she hadn't been able to find a trace of Bo Cheng in two and a half years. Although Ling Tianyu was special, how could he discover the Black Vatican's actions?
"Do you have any evidence?" Tang Yue asked.
"Yes..." Ling Tianyu revealed all his discoveries, speculations, and even the actions of the military and others.
Tang Yue may be a bit foolish, but she would never stand idly by and watch Bocheng suffer a disaster.
"Teacher Tang Yue, do you believe me?"
"I believe you!" Tang Yue's expression was solemn. It seemed that the Black Vatican had much grand ambitions. She planned to immediately contact the Inquisition to send reinforcements.
"Wait!" Ling Tianyu hurriedly called out to stop him.
"What's wrong?"
"Do you know any high-ranking members of the trial committee? I suspect things aren't very clean over there either."
"That's impossible! Every member who enters the Tribunal must undergo the baptism of the [Oath Tree]. If there are any impure elements, their cultivation will definitely be destroyed."
Tang Yue shook her head, distrusting Ling Tianyu's explanation.
"It's hard to explain in a short time. Since you have restrictive measures, the Black Vatican may have corresponding evasion methods." Ling Tianyu pursed his lips, slightly troubled.
Whether commoners or magicians, the vast majority of them had a blind trust in the Inquisition, but little did they know that this played right into the hands of the Black Vatican.
The higher-ups in the trial committee are filthy!
If Tang Yue were to make this call, it would serve no purpose other than to sound an alarm for the Black Vatican. The message would be intercepted in various ways en route.
"In that case..." Tang Yue pondered for a moment and said, "My uncle is the chief judge. If it is an order issued by him, the Black Vatican cannot intercept it."
"That's great!" Ling Tianyu nodded.
Without delay, Tang Yue immediately contacted her uncle, but after only a moment, she hung up the phone with a look of frustration, indicating that the result was not satisfactory.
Ling Tianyu had anticipated this; the evidence was insufficient, and the Black Vatican's operations were extremely covert, so decisive evidence could not be found in the short term.
"It's alright, reinforcements won't be the decisive factor," Ling Tianyu reassured him, a resolute look appearing in his eyes.
The reason why Bo City was completely overrun in the original story was largely because the various forces were completely unprepared for the invasion of demons and were caught off guard by the Black Church. In the end, they could only fight their own battles, without organization or discipline.
In addition, since it was daytime, many ordinary people were at work, shopping, etc., and most of them were not staying at home. If they were suddenly attacked by demons, they would only panic and run away indiscriminately.
But how can ordinary people outrun demons?
This ultimately led to the Bo City tragedy.
Now, regardless of the circumstances, the Black Vatican has already lost its greatest advantage, making it much easier for them to deal with.
As long as demons are prevented from entering the city, and with the natural defenses of the Xuefeng Mountain post station, it will be extremely difficult for demons to invade Bo City.
"Brother Ling Tianyu, the test results for the pale yellow liquid you found in the Giant-Eyed Blood Rat's burrow are in!" Commander Liang, who was in charge of guarding the Holy Spring, rushed over and said, then noticed Tang Yue next to Ling Tianyu.
"And this is...?"
"Don't worry, she's my teacher. Her background is absolutely clean! You can speak directly if you need anything!"
"Alright!" Commander Liang nodded, not saying much, and said solemnly, "According to the tests, we call this liquid the [Foggy Spring]. In fact, it has some similarities with the Earthly Holy Spring. Just looking at the surface, you can't tell the difference at all. It can be mistaken for the real thing."
"But..." Liang Weichang's tone shifted. "The Earthly Sacred Spring is a spiritual spring of heaven and earth, capable of providing immense nourishment to demons and humans. But this thing is different; it can drive demons mad and cause them to lose their minds in a short period of time, at the cost of overdrawing their internal energy. So, why exactly did this thing appear in the Giant-Eyed Blood Rat's burrow?"
Ling Tianyu sighed and explained, "If I'm not mistaken, this thing is very likely the potion developed by the Black Vatican to destroy Bo City! Remember what happened with Bai Yang?"
"I remember!" Commander Liang and Tang Yue nodded solemnly.
"Wait, could it be...?"
"That's right. I suspect that the semi-finished product you seized is very likely the precursor to [Foggy Spring]! Imagine if the Black Church sprinkled this kind of potion among the demon hordes and then bypassed their defenses through underground tunnels..."
Ling Tianyu didn't continue speaking, but everyone present understood his meaning perfectly.
"The Black Vatican is utterly depraved! If this is true, Bo City will suffer an unprecedented catastrophe of annihilation!"
