Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 3399

The following morning, Hepburn brought a few subordinates to meet with Nathan. She informed him that she had already selected a preliminary site for the cathedral, which would be located in Tellmoore, a district in Channing.

Tellmoore was renowned for its historic buildings and the famous Golden Temple, representing a deep cultural heritage.

Although the city was a bit worn down, it had a significant number of Curia followers, making it the ideal location for the Curia's establishment.

She extended an invitation to Nathan, asking him to accompany her to visit the selected site. Nathan, seeing no immediate concerns, agreed.

Nathan, accompanied by Colin, joined Hepburn's group and set off for Tellmoore. They arrived in the city when the sun was already high in the sky, casting a scorching heat upon them.

As Hepburn alighted from the vehicle, she casually glanced at the blazing sun and then looked at Nathan. She noticed that he calmly disembarked with Colin, his close bodyguard. He was without any discomfort, and Colin did not bother to provide him with an umbrella.

Hepburn thought to herself, Vampires detest sunlight. Even the most powerful vampire would feel uneasy standing under the scorching sun. Mr. Cross remains composed and at ease in the blistering sun. It's evident that he is not a vampire. It's absurd that Pope Eugene sent me to test Mr. Cross with the Tear of God.

She approached Nathan with a smile, saying, “Mr. Cross, please come this way.”

Nathan smiled and said, “Sure, lead the way.”

Soon, they arrived at an open area. Hepburn explained to Nathan that this used to be a lake but had recently been filled in, creating the space. She intended to secure this land for the cathedral and asked for Nathan's opinion.

Nathan smiled and replied, “It's a good location. I think it works.”

Hepburn laughed and said, “Great, it's settled then.”

They discussed various aspects of the cathedral's construction and its architectural style. Unbeknownst to them, two hours had passed while they stood under the scorching sun, leaving everyone thoroughly sunburned.

Nathan's forehead glistened with sweat as well.

Hepburn saw an opportunity and discreetly pulled out a bottle of mineral water, offering it to Nathan with a smile. She said, “It's so hot today, Mr. Cross. Here, have some water.”
