Chapter 166: Clues from Weiss's Residence
At Saint Rosalia Prison, Bishop Beckett walked out through the main gate under the escort of two knights and boarded a carriage.
Once inside, he activated the Blessing of Teleportation and established contact with Earl Foyle.
“As expected, Cardinal Torres firmly rejected our request for an investigation. The people at the Saint Rosalia Research Institute were extremely resistant. They were practically one step away from throwing me out.”
Bishop Beckett truthfully reported the results of his trip to investigate the Saint Rosalia Research Institute.
The Weiss Rogers incident had caused an enormous uproar throughout the Empire.
Although Cardinal Zeven had publicly announced that the event was a terrorist attack carried out by a heretical organization, the Church's explanation had not been fully accepted by the public because the perpetrators had never been captured.
As a result, the Church's reputation suffered a severe blow.
The entire affair had effectively evolved into a major Church scandal.
The incident also triggered a political earthquake within the Church itself.
