Chapter 421 The Eternal Bridge

St. Luan's eyes were warm as he guided Catherine to sit down. A cup of freshly ground coffee was already prepared on the table.

Catherine's face was calm, she stood alone and said:

"Although I am not a citizen of the Statue of Liberty Empire, I am also aware of the major and strange invasions that have occurred in the Statue of Liberty Empire."

"As far as I know, the Church of Liberty seems to rarely intervene in strange events involving Hades or even natural disasters, instead leaving it to civilian supernatural beings and the imperial military to resolve them."

"I've never been able to understand this."

"It wasn't until the incident of 'Queen of the Scarlet Moon' came to an end yesterday that I suddenly had an answer to this question."

St. Luan continued to look at Catherine quietly and kindly, as if facing a believer praying to him.

The latter continued:

"The Statue of Liberty has given up on the world and her believers... This concept has also affected her church and clergy, causing the church to ignore the overall situation and do nothing when faced with extremely dangerous and strange existences."

"Avoiding and withdrawing from the war is their policy. They turn a blind eye to the invasion of hell into the human world. They just want to defend their church, ensure their own little interests, and survive..."

"Excuse me, Bishop Saint-Louan, am I right?"

Catherine stared closely at the round-headed, tall and slightly fat man in front of her, trying to see shame and avoidance in his eyes.

However, she failed.

St. Luan's warmth has never changed, he is still so gentle and kind, and his voice is calm:

"Ms. Catherine, I understand your efforts to keep the Scarlet Moon Queen away from the human world. Please allow me to express my deep condolences to the sacrificed members of the New World."

"However, I still want to congratulate you on your final 'victory'."

"Also, please allow me to correct the point you just made, Ms. Catherine."

"First of all, it is not that the Church of Liberty has not intervened in incidents involving the Hell Demon level and above, and has even paid a price that is no less than any other supernatural world processing agency in other countries..."

"It's just that for some reason, the imperial royal family concealed it..."

"Even in your 'New World', no one except the leader knows about this matter."

"Secondly, the great Lady Liberty has not given up on this country or her devout people. She still holds high the torch of hope and is silently watching over us, including the people of the old world in other countries..."

Catherine was about to retort when she heard this, but suddenly she felt something in her heart and looked at the Statue of Liberty behind St. Louis.

She saw a pair of eyes full of compassion, endless enthusiasm and hope.

Suddenly, the words that were about to come out of his mouth disappeared.

Having said this, Saint-Loup paused and smiled slightly:

"I think, Ms. Catherine, you are here to ask us why we did not support you and why you suffered heavy losses?"

"But I also want to ask Ms. Catherine a question in turn."

Catherine's green eyes said without blinking:

"Please tell me."

St. Luan let out a long breath, as if he wanted to tell some secret:

"The battle started within the territory of the Statue of Liberty Empire, why not turn to the imperial army and the royal family for help?"

Catherine sat down and said matter-of-factly:

"Does this need to be said?"

"The firepower of the imperial army poses no threat to the 'Queen' at all. Using weapons of mass destruction may destroy us humans, but the 'Queen' may survive in the end."

"As for the imperial royal family? Those people who are greedy for life and fear of death are a burden even if they are real. They are even more reluctant to let their capable servants go out. Otherwise, who will protect them?"

Saint-Louan did not comment on Catherine’s words, but said to himself:

"That's just the surface."

"Please imagine that you led the 'Queen of the Scarlet Moon' to the territory of the Statue of Liberty Empire to besieged and killed. In fact, it brought a huge trouble to the empire..."

"That's a natural disaster-level strange creature... It would be best if you could deal with it properly. If you can't deal with it... it will undoubtedly make the empire's situation worse."

"The imperial royal family has shown considerable restraint by not pursuing the troubles of your 'New World' and the Federation afterwards."

Catherine remained calm and said:

"I know this, but after all, it happened suddenly, and we didn't know that the end of the clue guided by 'Glory' turned out to be the 'Queen of the Scarlet Moon'..."

"And having said that, weirdness is the common enemy of human beings. Under this premise, they are still divided from each other. So why bother to establish a "joint confrontation between weird events in the world and biological creatures" mechanism?"

Saint Luan nodded slightly and said:

"Everyone knows the truth, but there has been a rift between the imperial family and the federal government because of this matter. There is no doubt that it is still calm even on the surface."

"We should be more aware that after experiencing the disaster of the 'Ring of Thoughts', the empire cannot withstand the second natural disaster-level strange invasion. What's more, the 'Ring of Thoughts' is still gradually recovering..."

"So the key point is - the 'Queen of the Scarlet Moon' is a being with highly personalized characteristics. Once the official empire or the Church of Liberty take action against her, the country will inevitably face two strange natural disaster-level threats at the same time!"

"If the action fails, the empire will completely fall into a precarious state of national subjugation..."

"Except for the 'New World', I don't think any country or organization is willing to face such a terrible situation."

The golden light in Catherine's eyes, which she pursed tightly, flashed away. After a brief silence, she said:

"With the spectators and the 'Dream Hell Gate' here, the 'Queen of the Scarlet Moon' has been completely banished into the dreamland and will never be able to come out. Judging from the results, your worries are unnecessary."

"And if you are willing to support us, we can reduce many unnecessary sacrifices..."

In the face of doubts, Saint-Louan was not angry and said sincerely:

"Ms. Catherine should have heard of 'Eternal Bridge'?"

"Of course." Catherine nodded:

"Legend has it that when the 'Eternal Bridge' is built, there will no longer be a barrier between the dream world and the real world, and a large number of weird, mysterious races and even the families of evil gods will pour into the world."

"But that's just a legend. Bishop St. Luan, do you think it's an opportunity for the 'Queen of the Scarlet Moon' to escape just because of an unknown origin of a doomsday legend?"

"It's not just as simple as a legend." St. Luan shook his head slightly, causing the flesh on his face to sway slightly, and said in an unprecedented serious tone:

"The classics left by the Statue of Liberty have clearly mentioned that that is the end of the world that will really happen."

"And the builder of the 'Eternal Bridge', the goddess calls him... the 'Spider God'."
