I upgraded and added points in the Holy Inquisition

Lloyd waited patiently for a while and almost fell asleep on the spot when he was woken up by a conversation.

"Sir, the readings have been collected. Would you like to review them?"

"You must be joking. How can I understand these advanced and profound things? Tell me the results. It's better if it's good news. That way, it will be easier for me to report to the priests."

"Well... there are both good news and bad news..."

"Then let's talk about it all at once."

"The good news is that the space in this area is showing an optimistic trend of stabilization. After a while, we should be able to rebuild the naval port."

"The bad news is that we accidentally captured some traces of space storm activity, which is likely approaching here. It is not clear what adverse effects it will cause..."

Lloyd was listening to these two pieces of news and almost couldn't help laughing out loud.

To come to such a conclusion, one needs to carry such large pieces of equipment all the way here, and spend half a day calculating and analyzing?

The humor of this is like looking at the recharge items of a pay-to-win mobile game and asking how much it would cost to win 648 yuan.

And the key point is that I couldn't see it clearly, and I couldn't even see that the space storm had converged and calmed down, which made it even more humorous for a moment.

Even if you want to "return to primitive times", don't restore science and technology as well. Wouldn't that make you look like a clown?

Lloyd muttered in his heart, and then heard the leader of the survivors continue to say:

"Well, yes, this good news should satisfy the priests. As for the bad news..."

"Don't worry, sir. We know what to say and what not to say."

"Haha, good, good, then the mission is accomplished, it's time to return to the tribe and wake up these untouchables."

So with a few screams, those Run people began to experience the life of cattle and horses again.

Lloyd followed them calmly, eavesdropping on their conversation.

The scholar-looking survivor approached the leader cautiously and said in a low voice:

"Sir, since this mission was completed very smoothly, then regarding the matter of the Tenth Priest..."

"Don't worry, I'll put in a few good words for you...

But then again, being able to follow the Tenth Priest into battle is an opportunity that many people would love to have. They are all trying their best to join the expedition. Why are you trying to refuse? This is a military achievement that is within your reach. You only need to kill a few untouchables to get it. If I didn't have such a heavy responsibility, I would also like to go with him."

"Haha, I understand what you said, but... I am indeed incapable. I am afraid that I will disappoint the Tenth Priest. If that happens, won't it delay our 'great cause'?"

"Hmm... what you said does make sense. It seems that you are quite self-aware. Then why don't you stay? I will find a way to arrange for you to go to the temple. If you can break the space barrier left by the offspring of the evil god as soon as possible, it will be a great achievement."

When the scholar survivors heard this, they immediately danced with joy, and waved several limbs that were a mixture of human muscles and insect arthropods wildly in the air.

"Thank you very much, sir. You are like my second parent!"

"Humph~ You are a man with a lot on your mind, but I can understand that it is better to please the second priest than the tenth priest. But you must not let me down..."

"Please rest assured, I will definitely seize this opportunity!"

As the scholar survivors said this, they quickly turned around to "whip" the untouchables who were like beasts of burden, urging them to speed up their pace, which immediately created another round of wailing and screaming.

Lloyd was gloating while analyzing the information in this conversation.

They actually want to launch an expedition?

With their ridiculous space technology, where else do they want to explore? The real world? Or Mitzkatok?

And the tenth priest and the second priest seem to belong to two different mountains? But the latter's status is more important?

And the space loop I casually deployed earlier has not been unlocked yet? It even helped me "upgrade" it into a space barrier?

So what would you imagine if you encountered a real space barrier?

Alas... It seems that I still underestimated the researchers in the department. I used to think they were too incompetent, but now it seems that they are very strong and hardworking.

Lloyd felt amused and continued to eavesdrop on their conversation.

Unfortunately, there was not much information in what these survivors talked about later. They were all discussing how much reward they could get and how many untouchables they could get after completing this mission.

Humans in this world have been treated as some kind of commodity by them...

Moreover, these people are not all the kind of people we see today. Many of them were captured or even sold.

The leading survivor was showing off to the others that he had just bought a batch of untouchables a few days ago at a very reasonable price, and that among them were a few women and children who tasted good, which aroused the envy of the other survivors.

Lloyd clenched his fists when he heard this. It seemed that even if he destroyed the hideout in the Brilliant City, he still couldn't prevent this kind of thing from happening in other cities...

It turns out that we still have to solve the problem from the source...

The anger in his heart burned out his already limited patience, and he no longer wanted to listen to these monsters sharing their experiences on how to eat humans, so he activated the [Distorted Realm] and instantly controlled everyone present.

The other survivors and untouchables were naturally caught in the attack instantly and stood there in a daze.

The leader was also a [Distortion] type. The moment he sensed the attack, he activated his ability distortion to try to resist.

Unfortunately, the [Distortion] system was originally derived and spread from the "Book of Madness", and its resistance is somewhat presumptuous.

In the end, he couldn't hold on for even a second and was completely controlled to death by Lloyd on the spot.

Ha~ What kind of lord is this? How come he is even less capable than that deacon outside?

The deacon could at least fight me for a few rounds before, but this lord surrendered in a second?

Could it be that the deacon is already considered a strong one among them...

Lloyd muttered to himself for a while, then began to adjust the direction of his twisted thoughts, and then began to interrogate these guys.

Under the influence of their distorted thinking, these survivors naturally told everything they knew, even many details that Lloyd did not mention.

However, it was somewhat disappointing that no one present, including the lord, knew the issue that Lloyd was most concerned about, which was the origin and current status of the evil god.

That seems to be the top secret that only priests can access?

Even this lord who seemed to be of high status only knew that the temple was very important to their plan. However, it was now blocked by the space barrier, which made the second priest very angry and anxious. He had to find different ways to torture his subordinates every day, making everyone feel insecure.

And the so-called expedition was actually aimed at Mitzkatok...

Because their most important "naval port", which was the ruins when Lloyd first came in, was destroyed by an unknown attack and could not be repaired in a short period of time, so they lost the channel to invade the world on a large scale.

Now, there are only a few much smaller "piers" that can still connect to the real world, and as a result, the prices of food have started to rise for the untouchables, who are simply saying that they can no longer afford it.

So they thought about an expedition to Mitzkatok. The plan was to capture a group of space scholars to break the space barrier and rebuild the military port; and to plunder a group of people at the same time.

It is said that this expedition is led by the Tenth Priest himself, so it is naturally a sure win. It is even possible that there will be no need for much fighting, and the untouchables of Mitzkatokli will submit to the power of the Tenth Priest.

Lloyd felt angry and amused at the same time, and couldn't help but say:

"Don't bother. Mizzikatok's best space scholar has already come to you."

Then, Lloyd continued to patiently inquire about their sphere of influence, population distribution, and the locations of several other priests.

This is intended to deliver a 'little surprise' to your door.

The lord had told the previous information truthfully, but he didn't know much about the priests. He only knew that the second priest usually stayed at the temple, and the tenth priest was currently busy preparing for the expedition.

Among these priests, the most powerful, noblest and most influential chief priest is currently sleeping and will only wake up when the great cause reaches a critical stage, which is when the evil god returns.

By the way, the lord also explained the history of their tribe's rise, which was similar to what Lloyd had known before, that is, they accepted the bewitching and gift of the evil god, and then started fighting in the alien space, and in the end, the current tribe was the winner.

As expected, they were just as previously speculated, following the 'ancient ways' and adhering to the 'return to primitive' code of conduct.

The main force used, in addition to ancient magic, the [Distortion] system is highly respected.

In their strictly hierarchical social structure, only individuals who have mastered the "distortion" can get the opportunity for promotion and reuse.

However, even though his body has been highly alienated, resulting in a stronger resistance to mental pollution, and he is more adaptable to the various drawbacks of [Distortion] than humans in the outside world, it is still difficult to master the power of [Distortion], and every step forward is very difficult.

Like the lord in front of him, Lloyd thought he was too weak to be worth mentioning, but in their tribe, he was already considered a very powerful one.

The deacon who was killed before was a top tribal elite. As long as he could preside over the affairs of the Brilliant City, he would be a strong contender for the next priest.

When Lloyd heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head.

What a bunch of frogs in a well...

Of course, this is based on his own standard. In fact, considering the strength and combat effectiveness of the [Distortion] system, these weaklings that Lloyd simply despises can become tough rivals for ordinary transcendents.

Even an experienced eighth-ranker like Old York was hard to defend against when faced with the deacon's rituals. If Lloyd hadn't been there, he would have died without knowing how.

So Lloyd expressed disdain in his heart, but at the same time he was secretly glad.

Fortunately, they were not overly stimulated before, and the military port was blown up by chance. Otherwise, if this group of twisted monsters ran into the world and caused chaos, it would definitely not be easy to solve the problem, and I'm afraid it would require paying a very painful price.

In addition to [Distortion], this group of survivors also use some methods to command and control the devil, and this lord happens to be a master among them.

According to its confession, controlling the Karma Demon is not as easy as playing RTS games. In fact, it can only provide limited guidance to this crazy monster and cannot specify precise targets, let alone assemble and interleave these high-end operations.

But it is enough to create chaos in the world. Under the powerful impact and oppression of the karma demons, ordinary extraordinary people are ultimately unable to resist. In this way, they have captured many marginal towns and plundered a large number of people and resources.

But just a few hours ago, those demons had an accident that even the Lord couldn't understand. They all died suddenly and inexplicably? And they died suddenly without any injuries.

But before it had time to figure out the reason, it was assigned to complete today's task.

This good news eased Lloyd's increasingly heavy mood a little.

It seems that his previous "killing of gods" had inadvertently helped mankind clear a huge obstacle, so it can be said that he made a big profit.

Finally, the lord explained that they also have the trump card of "guiding the gods", that is, summoning the son of chaos, but it does not know much about this aspect. It only knows that no creature can compete with the gods. Once the gods are sent out, the enemy will surely be wiped out.

It also found out that the Tenth Priest's expedition was well prepared in this regard. At that time, the messenger would first rush into Mitzkatok to open up a gap, and then the fleet would file in and start burning, killing and looting.

If they really succeed in implementing this plan, the result will be very easy to predict. The academy really lacks the means to fight against the Sons of Chaos.

Fortunately, Lloyd chose to take the initiative in time.

Haha~ That’s a nice thought?

But it's really sinister...

After figuring out the approximate distribution of the ancient survivors' combat power, Lloyd had a rough idea in his mind. Finally, he asked them to give him the list of their minions in the world, especially those in other cities.

The lord did tell it all, but he didn't know much about it and only gave out the names of two minions from the City of Illusion.

Lloyd wrote down the names of the two assassins and had almost finished questioning them. He then controlled the team to continue moving forward as if nothing had happened.

He himself continued to blend in and headed for a densely populated town of the remnants of the people.

In order to speed up the progress, he did not show any mercy to those Run people. He directly distorted their physiological instincts, denied their pain, helped them unleash their full potential, and moved the equipment as quickly as possible regardless of the torn muscles and ligaments and damage to their internal organs.

It's also a form of waste utilization, right?
