A Core Ship From The Start-Chapter 1556 - 1047: All Parties Gather_2

"Yes, according to the final research report of the Holy Sword Project, everyone possesses some kind of crystal that can resonate with the Holy Sword within their body, although some people have more of it, while others have less. The reason that Fallen Godfather needed to kill all those people was not to dispose of defective individuals as he claimed, but rather to extract the Holy Sword crystals within those children and inject them into a single person so they could become a Holy Sword User capable of wielding the Holy Sword. Therefore, in that sense, the Holy Sword Project was successful. However... such evil heretic acts cannot be allowed. I originally ordered them to be purified, but I didn’t expect him to sense it and flee to the Fallen Angel Faction ahead of time..."

At this point, Michael glanced at Azazel.

"To avoid direct conflict with the Fallen Angel Faction, I did not act openly, only dispatched Murasakifuji Ilina to handle it."

I see.

"However, regardless of the reason, attacking Humans is an unforgivable evil act."

Duanmu Huai glared at Michael again.

"The Tribunal does not allow anything to deceive Humans in the name of any nonsense for their own sacrifice."

"Even if it’s a God?"

"Even if it’s a God, the Tribunal believes Humans are the priority; everything else is unimportant."

Upon hearing Duanmu Huai’s resolute response, everyone present was momentarily silent, and after a moment, Michael nodded.

"Alright, I understand the Tribunal’s stance."

"It seems our organization’s operational policy needs to change."

The Fallen Angel Governor quietly remarked, and Serges also nodded.

Before the Tribunal emerged, the three major forces did not particularly concern themselves with Humans. They might care about Humans, but that was out of concern for their own faction.

For example, Angels needed Human faith, Demons needed Human desires, so they cared about them.

But beyond that, they showed little interest in Humans, even if they did, it was only in those related to their own faction.

Yet now that the Tribunal has emerged, everything is vastly different.

Previously, they might not care about ordinary Humans’ lives, but now if they don’t, the Tribunal’s Iron Fist will strike them without hesitation.

"That’s all I have to say."

After Duanmu Huai said this, he closed his mouth. The Tribunal doesn’t accept negotiations, nor do they accept pleas; they simply inform then act. Like now, Duanmu Huai agreed to this meeting just to inform them, essentially meaning "don’t say you weren’t warned." He has notified you all, so if he hammers you in the future, don’t blame him for not giving a heads up.

Serges and Griffiel said nothing, the Fallen Angel Governor still smiled, while Michael, directly threatened by Duanmu Huai, displayed a faint smile.

"In that case, I’m relieved."

"???"

Does this Angel have a problem? Could it be you want to be thrashed?

But Michael didn’t say much more and instead refocused, looking solemnly at the crowd.

"Now, let me proceed with explaining the true agenda of this meeting."

"True agenda?"

"Exactly."

Michael nodded.

"The Tribunal might not know, but indeed, during thousands of years of the Three-Way War, nearly all top figures of the power structures have passed away."

"You mean?"

"God, Demon King, even the Gods we worship have fallen."

"Oh... no wonder you guys decided to negotiate."

Now Duanmu Huai understood why the three factions ultimately chose negotiation; all the top leaders are gone, so even if the subordinates want to fight, they can’t.

"Yes, but in fact, the Deities have not completely perished."

"What?"

"Is that so?"

Compared to the surprised Demon King and Fallen Angel, Duanmu Huai seemed calm. Generally, Indigenous Gods are Subspace Creatures, and Subspace Creatures don’t die so easily. fгeewebnovёl.com

Unless hammered to death by Duanmu Huai, then they are truly dead.

"Yes, that’s the problem."

Michael nodded solemnly.

"I believe everyone gathered here hopes for peace, but... once those Deities resurrect, there’s a significant chance we’ll plunge into unending chaos again."

At these words, the other representatives also became serious. It’s indeed troubling; it’s challenging to finally become the leader, only to hear the previous leader plans to return... that’s definitely unacceptable.

"But fortunately, we have the Tribunal as a strong ally."

"............???"

Regarding Michael’s words, Duanmu Huai was puzzled.

"I must state that the Tribunal cares only about Humans. We don’t concern ourselves with the Three-Way War or participate; you gamble as you wish as long as Humans are not affected—it’s unrelated to the Tribunal."

"Correct, if it affects Humans, it’s related to the Tribunal."

".........What do you mean."

Duanmu Huai squinted, staring at Michael, deadly aura radiating from his body. You think a pair of wings allows you to threaten the Tribunal? Do you think you’re Saint Giles?

"I’m not threatening the Tribunal, please forgive me for any misunderstanding."

Michael hurriedly explained.

"In fact, those Deities may revive, but initially, they are very weak—though even weak, they’re not ordinary targets we can deal with. However, to regain their power, they will act in the mortal realm. You all might know that due to the Three-Way War over the millennia, many Deities have left their legends and some Holy Artifacts in the world. They intend to reclaim the Holy Artifacts to regain their power through belief."

At this, Michael’s expression grew solemn.

"However, the prospects inundated by Divine power could bring disaster; the land visited by the Sun God could turn into burning Hell, while the Sea God’s arrival could summon great floods. If it’s the War God, it’s not surprising to bring war. Thus, Humans would inevitably suffer."

"I see, you believe the Tribunal won’t stand idly by."

Realizing Michael’s relaxed state, Duanmu Huai comprehended.

"Indeed, although truces and peace are prevailing, there are still many trying to follow Ancient Deities and continue inciting wars. So, from the perspective of our three factions, we can’t destroy our own faith Deities, nor attack other Deities without risking massive faith wars..."

Michael looked up at Duanmu Huai.

"Therefore, I request the Tribunal’s assistance here, hoping to use the Tribunal’s power to completely expel these Non-compliant Gods."

".........Interesting."

Listening to Michael’s words, Duanmu Huai grinned maliciously.

"It appears this will be quite entertaining."

Then he spoke.
