Chapter 863 Unnoticed Changes in the World, Undercurrent

"Even the patron saint is ready to resign?"

Qin Zhe frowned and said strangely.

"You want to retire completely?"

"Don't say retirement is so ugly."

Catherine snorted softly and said.

"Sister, I am eighteen this year. Have you ever seen someone who retired at the age of eighteen?"

The corners of Qin Zhe's mouth twitched when he heard this, prompted by the nature of the straight man of steel, he said "Can you show some face?" Subconsciously, he was about to say it, but he saw Catherine narrowing her eyes dangerously.

With a slight cough, Qin Zhe wisely chose to swallow the words on his lips back into his stomach, and changed his words.

"Not only do you want to resign from the position of Saintess, but you also want to resign from the position of Patron Saint. I am afraid that the church and the high-level officials of the North Kingdom will not easily approve it?"

Seeing that someone had a strong desire to survive, he changed the subject and didn't "have eyes" like before, Catherine raised her eyebrows and said.

"I do things, why do I need their approval?"

While speaking, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, she raised her hand to stroke the hair on her forehead.

"The church is not a big problem. I am not the only saint, but there are three of them. It's just that my personal reputation is too high, and the other two saints besides me have no sense of existence. If I am one less, it will not How much influence it has on the church, at least internally. And in fact, most people in the top church have been dissatisfied with me a long time ago, and they would like to see me abdicate. As long as I am firm, resigning the saint will not How difficult is it."

After speaking slowly, Catherine paused for a while and continued.

"As for the position of patron saint, it is really difficult to resign. But if I insist on resigning, no one will stop me. After all, my successor has been finalized not long ago."

"successor?"

Qin Zhe blinked, surprised.

"You mean, the candidate for the next patron saint of the Northern Kingdom?"

"Um."

Catherine nodded and said.

"I've met her before, and she's a very nice girl. She was promoted to the eighth rank not long ago, and her strength is very strong. If you are interested, I can introduce you to her later."

"It's fine to introduce me, I'm just a small person, and I don't want to have too many interactions with big people like the patron saint."

Qin Zhe shook his head and said, he was wrong when he thought about it, and said wrongly.

"Is there anyone else in Beiguo who has been promoted to the eighth rank besides you?"

"Is it strange that other people in the North Country have been promoted to the eighth rank?"

Catherine looked over speechlessly, curled her lips and said.

"I can't say for sure about other countries, but according to my personal understanding, apart from Shu Wenhan and you monster, your Dragon Kingdom has at least six or more eighth-level powerhouses hidden in the snow."

? ? ?

Qin Zhe stared.

Longguo, Xuezang, there are at least six or more eighth-order powerhouses?

Is there such a thing?

Who is here?

Seeing someone with a confused face, obviously ignorant of certain things, Catherine smiled.

"You, you don't care too much about the changes in the world. Since we returned from the abyss, apart from Shu Wenhan and I, the first batch of Jiuxiu who led the world to be promoted to the eighth rank, the pure and simple There are as many as a hundred robbery clouds captured in the satellite monitoring. Among them, there have been six robbery clouds on the border of the Dragon Kingdom, and it is obvious that six people have successfully promoted to the eighth level."

Qin Zhe didn't speak when he heard the words, his expression was strange.

In the past few months, more than a hundred people have survived the catastrophe in succession around the world?

This, he really doesn't know.

If everything is true, doesn't it mean that there are hundreds of eighth ranks in this world?

And this is a conservative figure!

After all, the number mentioned by Catherine is the number of robbery clouds captured by satellite monitoring.

It doesn't include people like Liu An and Yao Yaxian who have foreseen Tianjue in advance and are fully prepared to go to the secret realm to cross the catastrophe.

As if knowing what Qin Zhe was thinking, Catherine smiled meaningfully.

"Today's world is not as simple as it seems on the surface. Although everyone tacitly maintains the general pattern of the Nine Repairs Establishing the World, in fact there are many eighth-level powerhouses. According to the estimates of our domestic experts, the current global There are no less than 300 practitioners who have stepped into the eighth stage, and it is expected to break through the scale of 1,000 within this year."

"Is this... a little exaggerated?"

Qin Zhe looked strange.

"Referring to the data before the second spiritual energy tide, it is indeed a bit exaggerated."

Catherine said something irrefutable, and said.

"However, today is different from the past, and the environment of the present world is still changing quietly. From the fact that so many people have entered the eighth stage in just a few months, it can be seen that the influence of the second wave of spiritual energy on the present world is still fermenting. Now the world The emergence of a large number of unknown secret places in various places is a relatively obvious sign. Apart from these inexplicable things, my personal practice efficiency has also improved significantly recently, and the speed of practice is not only a little bit higher than before. If there are not many things that are entangled , Maybe I have entered the middle stage of the eighth order now."

Qin Zhe didn't say anything after hearing what Catherine said clearly.

The current environment is bound to change.

But personally, he didn't have any obvious feelings.

Not to mention that he entered the secret realm for the first time twice recently, he himself has never practiced seriously.

He couldn't feel the change in the environment at all.

If Catherine hadn't told him, he might still be ignorant of some things.

Now it seems that the changes in this world are not ordinary!

After a moment of silence, Qin Zhe laughed.

"It seems that I have missed a lot of important things these days. It is a good thing that there are so many eighth-level powerhouses in this world."

Catherine laughed dumbfounded when she heard this, turned her body and leaned against his hand sideways, and sighed softly.

"There are more eighth ranks in the world, which is indeed a good thing. But under the current situation, can eighth ranks really be called strong?"

"..."

Qin Zhe fell silent again.

From a purely secular point of view, the eighth level is undoubtedly the top powerhouse.

But including the aliens living in the secret realm, and the ancient existences that have returned one after another, the eighth level is nothing at all.

Now how many aliens are there in the present world, and how many aliens are discovered in the unknown secret realms that have not been in contact with the present world, no one can say for sure.

What is certain is that the number will definitely not be small during the period.

After all, Qin Zhe, who is pure and simple, has recently encountered several complete civilizations in the secret realm of the Southern Territory and the small world of Canglan, and any one of them can be pulled out to beat the world at a high level of practice, not to mention that there are still people like the saints who invade in the form of civilization. Come to the sinister civilization of the present world.

It is no exaggeration to say that today's world is full of unpredictable dangers.

Sighing secretly, Qin Zhe turned his head and said.

"Some things are too heavy. Let's focus on the present first, and deal with your northern problems first."

"Um."

Catherine responded with a chuckle.

"At the end of the day, neither you nor I are made to be saviors. Your kid's character is destined not to be a big deal, but I have already considered 'retirement', so there is no need to worry about it."

As she spoke, she looked at the dark night outside the window, bit her red lips lightly, and retracted her gaze.

"It's late at night, compared to those who have nothing, will you still sleep with me tonight?"
