Salute To The General

Chapter 3071



At night, Nathan and his family were eating dinner as international news played on the television.

Nathan enjoyed watching international news during meals, which was a habit he had developed in recent years.

All of a sudden, a piece of news caught everyone's attention.

Queenie's photo had appeared on television, and the background of the broadcast was the Curia.

As it turned out, the Curia's representative was announcing to the believers that the Curia had chosen its next Holy Maiden-Queenie Smith from the South of Eurasia.

Upon hearing the announcement, the believers cheered fanatically.

Right then, an anchorwoman with a microphone in hand said with a smile, "The pope, Eugene IV, has chosen the next Holy Maiden today, and it is none other than Queenie Smith of Eurasia. According to the reports, Queenie Smith is still in elementary school. When she reaches the age of sixteen, she will take over Hepburn's role as the Holy Maiden..."

Bam!

Nathan, whose expression was as black as thunder, slammed his fork against the table.

Instantly, Penny, Queenie, Benson, Leah, and Ava turned to look at him in shock.

They had never seen Nathan that angry, but they were equally furious.

They could not believe that the Curia stubbornly insisted on going their own way, one-sidedly announcing Queenie the future Holy Maiden, despite their warning to them.

From the moment of the announcement, Queenie would face tremendous danger.

It came as no surprise that Nathan would be crossed about it.

"Colin!" the man then called out in a cold voice.

Colin's towering figure immediately emerged. "Yes, Mr. Cross!"

"Has Laura left Eurasia?"

"Not yet. She and her subordinates are still in Channing."

"Get her here right now."

"Roger, Mr. Cross!"

With that, Colin turned to leave.

However, Nathan suddenly stopped him.

Colin turned to look at him in confusion.

Expressionlessly, Nathan uttered, "Contact the Curia in my name and inform Pope Eugene that he has to retract his statement and announce a different future Holy Maiden."

Hearing that, Colin furrowed his

brows and decided to speak his mind. "The Curia has countless believers all over the world, and the pope means everything to these

believers. Asking Pope Eugene

to

retract his statement is akin to asking him to humiliate himself. Furthermore, his reputation as the pope will suffer. I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to announce a different Holy Maiden." to

In a frigid tone, Nathan said, "Tell him this: If you don't choose another girl as the future Holy Maiden, will visit the Curia and make him do so myself. I'm afraid you'll be even more mortified then." to

Colin's eyes widened in shock.

At that very moment, he could sense the wrath that stemmed from Nathan's paternal instincts.

Thus, he quickly answered, "Of course. I'll convey your message to Pope Eugene without fail." Nathan waved his hands dismissively. "Run along now."

The gray areas of Southeast Asia and its few neighboring countries were also called the Land of the Forsaken.

It was named that because it was the land forsaken by god and those countries.

The place was a lawless land and a paradise for criminals.

Those active in the area were pirates, drug traffickers, kidnappers, scammers, and more. It would not be an exaggeration to say that those who had never taken a life would never step foot in the area.

At that moment, in a simple wooden cabin by some riverside of the Land of the Forsaken, a tall, burly, and hairy middle-aged man had his eyes fixed on the old television before him.

The Curia's announcement of Queenie being the next Holy Maiden was being broadcasted on television.

The burly man narrowed his eyes before putting a bloody heart into his mouth. As if he was a snake devouring a rat, he swallowed the heart after chewing it a few times.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

Not far behind him was a few bodies of the locals. Each and every one of their bodies had huge holes in their chest; their hearts were nowhere to be found.

As the middle-aged man stared at the piece of international news, he sneered. "Haha! The heart of the future Holy Maiden will surely elevate my strength. If I can become stronger, Father will surely see me in a different light when I head back, won't he?" to
