Chapter 685 Hoist by His own Petard! (1)

After the chaos caused by the Nine Anonymous Stars, the Siren Hymn Temple was filled with gloom and in a state of emergency. Even the three empires had noticed this, but they didn't do anything and silently observed from the shadows.

Furthermore, they were busy tracking down the Legendary Key's location given to them by the Ocean Oracle, and since this was an internal matter of the Siren Hymn Temple, they also didn't want others to interfere in this.

However, because the main temple sent huge forces to investigate and clean up their rotten priest lords, this decreased the security of the main temple by at least half.

Which made it easier for those who knew their way around this place to sneak in. However, it was still quite difficult with all the defensive formations in this place.

But if someone had the ability to turn anyone below the legendary rank into its puppets, then even this much security wasn't enough, not to mention if this also involved a huge scheme in place.

This was exactly what happened, as Jacob easily bypassed the security of the Siren Hymn Temple and entered the heart of their territory with Autarch's help and the Star Lord's scheme.

There was a huge city in this place called the Mermaid Faith City, and this could be considered the Siren Hymn Temple's capital city. In this place, only those accepted directly in the main temple can enter after many passing trials and prove their faith.Ne/w novel chapters are published at novelhall.com

All the priest lords under the Siren Hymn Temple were also anointed from this place, which was extremely huge and beautifully built. Glowing buildings surrounded the colossal main temple in the center.

However, despite its high security, Star Lord was able to put a spy in this place, who was one of the twenty Templar Masters of the Siren Hymn Temple, which were surprisingly under Star Lord's thumb.

A Templar Master was like an imperial general, and only Templar Grandmasters ranked above them, followed by the Holy Maiden and the Ocean Oracle, so one could only imagine just how startling the Star Lord's capabilities were.

faced armored siren questioned coldly while looking at the puppet Templar Master named Eula.

"Grandmaster Lydia!" Eula greeted with a bow and her tone were respectful, she said, "I seek your forgiveness for coming here without any prior notification, but this matter is of utmost importance and I had no choice but to come here personally since we can't trust anyone with going on recently.

"I'm sure the Holy Maiden would not reject my audience because this matter involved the attackers involved in the recent blasts. The sooner I report this to the Holy Maiden, the faster we can calm all this chaos down," Eula said with a grave expression.

Grandmaster Templar Lydia, who was one of the five Grandmaster Templars, was an Early Stage Inception Legend Rank expert of the Siren Hymn Temple. her duty was to protect this place with her life, and her loyalty was unquestionable.

So, when she heard this, her eyes flashed with killing intent as if she wanted to personally bring judgment to those degenerates who dared to cause such chaos in this holy place. She even blamed them for corrupting their innocent priest lords.

"I'll alert the Holy Maid right away; please wait." Lydia quickly agreed and didn't question Eula's credibility for a moment since she had personally seen her grow up and even gave her pointers.

Lydia then took out a small talisman and muttered something in it before the runes on the talisman shimmered and faded slightly.

Thereupon, a cold majestic voice rang from the talisman, "Led her to the audience hall, I'll be there!"

Lydia then stowed away the talisman and nodded towards Eula with a hint of appreciation in her stern eyes, "Let's go, Master Templar Eula. You've done great service to the temple, and you have my utmost gratitude!"

Eula bowed slightly and didn't shun away from Lydia's praise, "It's something I should do, or I won't be able to show my face to the goddess in the afterlife!"

Little did anyone know, whether it was the Star Lord or the Siren Hymn Temple, that this was the start of a huge event that would forever change everything for everyone, especially Jacob!
