Terraly 1591.1.30.

Heaven is an unknown place.

The third floor: Belial.

This is called the "created world" and is the first step in the gradual transformation of the infinite brilliance of the Almighty into the perceptible and finite world.

In Beria, the divine light is no longer an infinite concept that cannot be touched, but reveals the prototype of rules and order through specific divine qualities.

It is the place of truth that countless beings long for. It is also the headquarters of the core institutions and important departments of the Kingdom of Heaven, just like the beating center of the Kingdom of Heaven.

The most eye-catching thing in Beria on the third floor is a mysterious building called [Binà].

[Bina] is not an ordinary building, it represents pure, undifferentiated inspiration and intuition.

It is the essence of wisdom in the unknowable place and the projection of all structured, ordered knowledge in this sacred realm.

It is like an unspeakable source, leading directly to the deepest truth. Its brilliance contains endless enlightenment, and the mortal soul can touch those unknowable mysteries here.

Among all the buildings in Bina, one of the most important sacred objects is the Pool of Bethesda—one of the two sacred pools for healing in heaven.

Another holy healing pool is located on the first floor, between the two courtyards of [Chung Si] and [Nursery] - [Siloam Pool].

[The Pool of Bethesda] is quietly located in the center of [Bina]. Surrounding the pool is an open stone courtyard.

Ancient white marble pillars support the structure of the courtyard, as white as snow. The surface of the pillars is engraved with countless undecipherable ancient characters. These characters form a rhythm of their own, shine with a faint light, and blend with the surrounding sacred environment.

In the center of the courtyard, there is a silvery pool of water, with a soft shimmer and ripples on the surface; above the pool, several statues of angels are floating; there is no substantial roof above the building, but a void-like sky.

.

There are five ancient corridors next to the courtyard. Each corridor leads to a different direction, symbolizing different sacred qualities and powers.

Those corridors are like paths leading to infinite truth. Once you step into them, you embark on the path to understanding creation and structure.

In the silver pool water, Xia Xiu lay lazily on the edge of the pool, with his hands spread out and leaning on a slightly protruding stone chair.

At this moment, his figure seems to blend into this holy tranquility and become one with this sacred courtyard.

Xia Xiu's hair was combed back into a neat back. The wet hair stuck close to his scalp, giving off a faint metallic texture in the dim light, making him look more capable and cold. The back style made his entire face look more sophisticated.

It is more clearly exposed, revealing its sharp contours and impeccable facial features.

There was still that hideous wound on his chest, which was particularly conspicuous near his heart.

Since the death of Green Sun, he has been soaking in this pool for three days.

The silver healing water flowed slowly, wrapping around his body and repairing the twenty-four broken organs bit by bit.

He closed his eyes, feeling the warmth and tranquility of the pool, and his consciousness gradually drifted away.

Although most of the organs have recovered, the core organ near the heart that was crushed by the trial will never heal.

In order to make up for this irreversible loss, Eden implanted a new [Heart of Revelation] in him when he returned to the unknown land.

"Huh~"

Xia Xiu exhaled with a sigh, "Ah~ What a brand new heart."

He muttered to himself, curling up the corner of his mouth slightly, with a hint of indescribable humor, "Sure enough, my heart is also a workman. If one is broken, I have to replace it with a new one, and then work overtime, beating 24 hours a day...

…Thanks to this heart, I feel like a machine working overtime.”

The newly implanted [Heart of Revelation] beat very regularly, as if he had received an order to work overtime indefinitely. Every pulse in his heart seemed to remind him:

There is no time to rest, so we have to keep working!

The new heart cooperated perfectly with the [Second Heart·Heart Engine] in his body. The two hearts worked at the same time, just like a pair of poor laborers who were forced to accept double the workload - one was responsible for ensuring the body's energy supply.

, the other has to fully support his every action.

"How does it feel to take a bath for three days?"

Suddenly, a familiar voice broke the tranquility of the pool.

Xia Xiu lazily opened his eyes and turned to look at the person coming.

It was an old man in casual formal attire, a bit unruly, and he was slowly walking towards the edge of the pool.

This man is none other than the chairman of the Heavenly Kingdom Ethics Committee, Robert Felden, his political ally.

He was holding a thick roster in his hand, obviously coming on official business.

Feilden walked directly to Xia Xiu and sat down without any scruples. He stretched his bare feet lazily into the water, swaying casually, causing some tiny splashes.

Xia Xiu frowned in disgust and moved to the side, with a hint of helplessness and speechlessness on his face.

"This is the holy pool, you just stick your feet in?"

Feilden shrugged and waved nonchalantly.

"Are you still concerned about the Holy or Unholy Pond? As an academic student of Luyuan, you didn't realize that this is the conceptual substance that Eden extracted from [Yahwei]? The understanding of one of the ten primary qualities can be embodied, and it can make all things invisible.

Order turns into an orderly pool of knowledge.”

Xia Xiu rolled his eyes and said in a teasing tone, "Of course I know the nature of this pool, but that doesn't stop me from hating your... graphic expression of wanting to flavor the pool."

Felden didn't care and continued to enjoy the comfort of soaking his feet.

Xia Xiu sighed, raised his eyelids and glanced at him, "Tell me, what are you doing here? Can you let me be a little cleaner?"

Feilden said casually: "You have been fishing for three days, it's almost time to move."

After hearing this, the fourth sword holder in the Kingdom of Heaven showed displeasure and pointed to the wound on his chest.

"Fish? Fish? This is work-related injury repair! How does it count as fishing?"

"I am repairing work-related injuries! Do you think repairing work-related injuries does not count as working hours?"

He continued dissatisfiedly: "These twenty-four broken organs have been repaired to the point where I have doubts about life. Come and try it in the bubble pool!"

Feilden squinted his eyes and looked at the hideous scar on the chest of the fourth sword holder in the Kingdom of Heaven. He frowned slightly, as if he was weighing the weight it carried - a full blow from a man on the verge of a miracle.

Then, he stopped talking, spread out the heavy roster in his hand, scanned the writing on it with his eyes, and slowly began to explain the business.

Xia Xiu noticed the change in the atmosphere and put down his teasing. His expression gradually calmed down and he returned to the calm and serious posture of the fourth sword holder in the Kingdom of Heaven.

Although his body had been restored by soaking in the Pool of Bethesda for the past three days, he had never really relaxed mentally.

He really hasn't fished in the past three days.

The more than 3,000 unprocessed messages from the Administration have been processed through mental overclocking in the past few days.

The mess left by the fall of Green Sun is far more troublesome than these things.

"Let's talk about business now." Feilden began to report word by word. "Regarding the awakening of the inner palace and the follow-up processing of Bodfei II, the people in the central containment room have contained three of them based on the relevant information you provided.

Insect arrows, three bone arrows, future vision eyes, infinite train, black wedding dress, abnormal space (bloody eyes), progressive acceleration assignment engine device..."

Felden flipped through the roster in his hand, tapping his fingers lightly on each page, becoming very familiar with the recorded items.

He raised his eyes and looked at the blond young man who was still half leaning on the edge of the pool. His voice was low and steady:

"Although all of these items have been contained, their mutations need to be further confirmed. Especially the progressive acceleration assignment engine device and the infinite train - the people in the central containment room are very interested in these two items. Their research

The value is very huge, especially the potential for space manipulation, which may lead to the development of new ship blueprints."

Xia Xiu lay in the pool, eyes slightly narrowed, golden pupils thinking in the dim light.

He turned his head and glanced at Feilden, with a hint of disapproval in his voice:

"I don't care if other things are given to the containment room, but the Infinity Train is exactly what I need."

He didn't say many words, but his meaning was very clear.

Feilden raised his eyebrows and asked with some speculation:

"Are you going to use it to give it to the Third Academy...?"

Xia Xiu lightly shrugged, as if responding to an obvious question, with a hint of ridicule in his tone:

"I'm going to be a school bus and discuss with the Federation about the first phase of the construction plan for the three hospitals."

Feilden's expression remained normal, and he was not surprised by the unconventional thoughts of the fourth sword-bearer in the Kingdom of Heaven.

Xia Xiu continued, his tone returning to a more serious tone:

"Behind the awakening of the Inner Temple, a consortium was involved, and the president of the Second Federal Bank, John K. Hanks, was very grateful to me for helping them find out the relevant institutions infiltrated by the consortium. Therefore, the construction funds of the Third Hospital

It’s no longer a problem. Especially for the ‘Ivy Completion Pool’, people from the savings bank have already started to help build it.”

Xia Xiu's tone contained a nonchalant tone, as if this power game involving multiple levels was just an everyday game.

However, Felden knew that the complex situation hidden behind this was far from simple as it appeared.

The infiltration of consortia is not only a problem in the economic field, but also affects the entire federal political system. Xia Xiu's actions this time have undoubtedly opened a hole in the undercurrent.

Xia Xiu looked up at the unobstructed sky. Starlight was scattered on his blond hair, like a thin layer of silver.

His voice was calm and somewhat thoughtful:

"The replenishment pool is expected to be repaired within half a month, and the Whispering Square that was conquered previously has also been rebuilt after the war. The place was almost reduced to ruins, but now it is as if nothing happened."

He paused for a moment, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, thinking.
To be continued...
