Ultimate Assassin System
Chapter 711 The precarious Temple of Light
A few days later, the system space. .
Ding, long-term mission, light and dusk, stage rewards.
Experience points gained: 50 points.
Experience points gained: 0 points.
get……
…
A series of systematic synthesized sounds jingled. Tang En stood there blankly, watching the more than 5,000 experience points that had been untouchable for a long time suddenly jump to nearly 7,000. He couldn't help but touch his nose, and subconsciously murmured: What the hell... you are really taking the long term to catch the big one. Fish?
Tang En has now returned to Hanshui City, but he came back late at night, so he was not in a hurry to summon David and others, but simply rested behind closed doors and came to the system space that he had not entered for several days. Therefore, the current scene occurred...
I told you, you're lucky. Long-term missions are generally missions that give you experience. The old butler who was leisurely reading a book beside him continued smoothly without raising his head.
Tang En nodded when he heard this, expressing his understanding. Then he looked at the experience value that had stopped climbing, and smacked his lips with unsatisfied content: It's a pity that it only rose so much.
This idea is undoubtedly a bit greedy. You must know that before this, the system experience value was almost untouched.
The old housekeeper raised his head with a half-smile: With what you have done in the Northern Temple, there is actually no problem in moving up to the next level. But...do you dare to move up?
Uh... Tang En was stunned for a moment. After he realized what he was doing, he couldn't help but grinned and shifted his gaze, What about that, old housekeeper, help me check if there is any information about the Eye of Disaster in the system.
This is of course a change of topic, but Tang En really doesn't dare to upgrade... The reason is very simple. During this trip to the temple, if there was any move that had the biggest impact on the temple, it was undoubtedly the moment when the demon skull was released.
It's just that it was Xia Wei'an who threw the demon skull in the end, not Tang En. As a result, Tang En's role in this process has changed from the mastermind to an accomplice, and the experience points gained will naturally be much less.
Of course, there was nothing we could do about it. Even if Tang En could go back to that time and make another choice, he would also give up the devil's skull to Xia Wei'an. After all, the experience value has been improved, which is certainly worth celebrating. But if the health value rises sharply, it will be fatal...
The old butler did not dwell on the changed topic. With a wave of his hand, a light curtain appeared, with Bran characters, Beihuang characters, and some weird characters and symbols rolling down like a waterfall. After a short moment, hundreds of pieces of information about the Eye of Disaster appeared on the light screen, just like a computer index in the real world.
Tang En was naturally not surprised by this. In his mind, the system was almost the symbol of a smart computer. Stepping forward, he clicked on each message one by one, and quickly eliminated some bards that were just gimmicks and had no actual content.
For a moment, Tang En's eyes were fixed on a message written in Beihuang characters. After briefly glancing at the beginning of the information, Tang En understood that this information contained many strange things and that the author was a Northern Wilderness magician.
As mentioned before, the people of the Northern Wilderness have almost natural shortcomings in practicing fighting spirit and magic. Therefore, most of their research directions seem to be strange and bizarre, and they should be based on the idea of winning by surprise. In this way, something with a stronger evil meaning, such as the Eye of Disaster, will naturally come into their sight.
In fact, this is exactly the case. This information material introduces the Eye of Disaster in great detail. In addition to what Xia Wei'an said before, Tang En also knew that the Eye of Disaster once fell into the hands of the Northern Wasteland people, but after being circulated for a hundred years, it was eventually taken away by the temple.
Perhaps it was this experience that gave this Northern Wilderness magician a certain understanding of the Eye of Disaster. According to him, although the Eye of Disaster is naturally generated, it can actually be controlled. Some people from the Northern Wilderness have done this before and made a big fuss...
There is no need to elaborate on the specific movement. It is roughly that the person used the Eye of Disaster to control countless barbarians and wanted to revitalize his tribe in this way. However, before the momentum was completed, the matter was exposed, attracting many powerful people to surround him.
Although the Eye of Disaster is dangerous and terrifying, it has no actual combat power. In the end, the man was killed instantly by a strong man. The huge force that had been gathered and controlled before was not put to use at all, and immediately fell apart. Even those barbarians who came to their senses even killed the man's tribe out of anger...
It's a pity that after a good fortune, it turned out to be a sharp sword with a hanging head, and it was a disaster!
And precisely because of this, the method of controlling the Eye of Disaster was lost.
The strong man who took action thought that something that a small person could control, of course he could do it himself. But the result is not like this. It seems that after this time, the Eye of Disaster will no longer show its face. It will use various methods and let many strong people circulate, but in the end, except for a few more insane people, nothing will be gained... …
Seeing this, Tang En couldn't help but frown: Hey, I dare to invite an ancestor back who can see and use it! He shook his head speechlessly, Old housekeeper, do you have any suggestions?
But the old butler, who had always been omnipotent, shook his head this time, indicating that he didn't know.
Naturally, Tang En cannot be persuaded by such a straightforward attitude. Besides, the old butler has a criminal record. He clearly knows something but does not say it. He only waits for Tang En to suffer a big loss before he comes out and makes some criticisms... This method has been tried repeatedly by the old butler. , for example, when they first met, the old housekeeper concealed Sethman's whereabouts when he left Xiaoshi Village. As a result, Tang En went in the opposite direction to Laiyan City.
Stop making trouble, old housekeeper, tell me as soon as you know.
After closing the book, the old housekeeper glanced at Tang En and said calmly: I am not an encyclopedia.
Uh... isn't it?
…
The next moment, Tang En was driven out of the system space.
Hey, what do you mean? If you don't know, just tell me. If you don't tell me, how will I know that you don't know? Opening his eyes, Tang En muttered as he lay on the bed, tossing and turning.
But now that he knew the old butler's clear attitude, even if he knew how to control the Eye of Disaster, Tang En didn't think he had the ability to force him to find out. He could only shake his head helplessly, take out the Eye of Disaster from his arms, and hold it high above his head.
I have a headache, how can I control it? Well, open sesame? The king covers the earth and the tiger, the chicken stews the mushrooms...the black fertilizer turns black, the gray fertilizer plays, the black fertilizer plays...it turns black, black, black, your uncle's... …”
The spell command failed. Tang En rolled his eyes and quickly thought of other ideas. He turned over his hand and revealed the dagger...
For a moment, Tang En held up his bleeding finger and watched expressionlessly as drops of blood circled the smooth surface of the Eye of Disaster in a half-circle very smoothly, falling without hesitation... The blood sacrifice failed!
He exhaled and gritted his teeth, Hey, look at my bad temper, I can't cure a little one like you... Come on, I want to see how long you can last...
After a night of tangles, in the early morning of the next day, David hurried over after learning that Tang En was back.
After knocking on the door, David was not polite and said directly: Boss, we have successfully taken over thirty bounty hunter branch guilds. The rest are also being destroyed. I believe it won't take long to remove the bounty hunter guild from the Clear out the north...
To quietly take over thirty hunter guilds is naturally an incredible achievement. But if you compare this number to the overall size of the Bounty Hunter Guild in the north, it's actually nothing. But this is also the limit that David and the others can eat. The reason is not that they lack financial resources, but that they have a serious lack of manpower...
It is impossible for David and others to take charge of these guilds openly. First, it is for safety reasons and to prevent others from taking over. Second, doing so also restricts the activity space in the gray space, and the gain outweighs the loss.
In fact, the people who are in charge of each branch guild are people from secret agencies, and even doing so is very tight. After all, those with leadership skills are popular everywhere. It is impossible for Tang En to cut off the intelligence source of the secret agency in order to form a killer organization. That would undoubtedly be the most stupid thing to do.
It was precisely for these reasons that David and his colleagues managed to take over these thirty branch guilds after a lot of hard work.
Of course, according to the style of gray space, even if you can't use it yourself, you have to find a way to destroy it so that others can't use it. So after having the clear addresses of various guilds in hand, David and the others have done a lot of dirty things recently, and many branch guilds have been destroyed because of them!
It is worth mentioning that David and his team's attack on the Bounty Hunter Guild was extremely smooth this time and they encountered almost no trouble.
The reason for this is quite simple. Before Tang En and the others went to the Northern Temple, there were still three senior members of the guild. But now, except for Tang En, a bastard from Xibei, there is not even a senior executive in such a large guild. In this way, without a leader, the scattered guilds naturally cannot pose any threat to David and the others...
...Boss, you are not here, so you don't know what we have done in the past few days. Fighting thousands of miles away, killing one side, haha... Even the Bounty Hunter Guild is too weak, with no ability to resist at all, and it is not very enjoyable...
Obviously, David was very excited to be able to defeat the bounty hunter guild with hundreds of years of experience with just a few dozen people. But precisely because of this, David didn't notice that Tang En, who was opposite him, was rubbing his brows with a look of sleepiness on his face.
Finally, he waved his hand and interrupted, Okay. Well, wait a moment.
Just as he was talking in high spirits, David was startled when he saw Tang En suddenly turning around and entering the room. When he came back to his senses, Tang En had appeared in front of the door again, throwing a book casually, This is evidence of the transaction between the Temple of Light and the Bounty Hunter Guild. You don't need me to teach you how to do it? Well, then Let’s do this for now.”
He waved his hand, and bang, the door was closed, and only a low voice could be heard coming from inside, Young Master is in love with you. I really don't believe that I can't deal with you, you damn fish-eyes...
Dead fish eyes? David couldn't help scratching his head when he heard this, his face was blank.
At this moment, the door creaked open again, and Tang En and David, who stepped out, looked at each other and were stunned, Hey, why are you still here?
Well……
By the way, you did a good job this time. The thirty branch guilds will be run as before. After I figure it out, we will form our own killer organization... Also, it just so happens that you haven't left, so I I'm a little hungry. Ask the kitchen guy to bring me something to eat. That's it, bye!
Bang, the door closed again.
Okay...boss. After opening his mouth, David left with a baffled look on his face. What's going on...
David, who was full of doubts, naturally didn't know that Tang En was working hard with the Eye of Disaster and wanted to find a way to control it.
Of course, it has to be said that the Eye of Disaster also has such value. If this thing is used properly, it is indeed a killer!
…
In the next few days, while Tang En was being amused by the Eye of Calamity, David and Harry had indeed lived up to his hopes. The transaction evidence that was thrown out casually was fermenting to make the entire Bran. The power of the Empire's tremors...
To say that things have been really troubled recently, especially for the Temple of Light, it is even more unlucky.
Miracles were faked, churches in many places were shady, the ugly faces of many clergy were exposed, etc. A series of events have tested the believers' endurance time and time again. And the faith that was once holy and flawless in the hearts of believers is now covered with layers of black veil, making it difficult to see and understand clearly, but the feeling in the heart is probably hazy...
At this time, a new round of negative news about the Temple of Light began to break out in various places.
The initial news was that the clergy had hired a murderer, and the person killed was a prestigious scholar. The general content of the rumors is that the great scholar said some bad things about the Temple of Light. In fact, these so-called bad words are just some practical opinions on the rights of the church.
As we all know, the power of churches everywhere is considerable. It is no exaggeration to say that even if the livelihoods of several nobles are tied together, they are absolutely incomparable. Putting aside everything else, the actual area of fertile land that the church occupies in various places is enough to kill the local nobles in an instant...
All kinds of rights, such as these, actually exist. It's just that the temple has always been obscure, so it's not known to ordinary people. But now that this situation has been revealed through the mouth of this relatively pragmatic scholar, it has undoubtedly stirred up a hornet's nest.
The simple truth is that this is like giving alms to a homeless person. If you knew that a homeless person had millions of dollars, was extremely rich, and had a lot of lovers, would you still give the money in your hand to this homeless person?
Of course, this analogy is not suitable. Donating money to religion and giving charity on the streets are two completely different concepts. But what I want to say is that some of the concepts in people's hearts are vaguely similar.
The spirit of dedication is selfless and great, and should not be deteriorated by any factors.
Therefore, it is not ruled out that some fanatics will donate generously even if they know the true situation of the church. But before that, before the faith was fully formed, believers mostly saw benevolent clergy, simple attire, poor food and living conditions...
This is the consistent appearance of the temple, but the believers do not know it. Because of these appearances, they have dimmed into a fixed idea, that is, the conditions of the temple are not good, and the clergy also live a very poor life... It is precisely because of these preconceived impressions , they chose to donate, and chose to donate their few food and money to the temple, hoping that through these small efforts, they could change these status quos.
However, now, the pragmatic remarks of this great scholar have bloody revealed this appearance. In this way, regardless of whether the temple party really intends to promote this appearance, as vested interests, they will never allow anyone to destroy this appearance.
Therefore, the great scholar died. According to the local police department, he died in an accident.
But now that the old story is being brought up again, someone has found out something suspicious about this accident. And more importantly, the assassin who assassinated the great scholar at that time now took the initiative to stand up and confess all this, and said that he was ordered by the Temple of Light...
Of course, life is not a fairy tale. Behind the stunned believers, it is not the assassin whose conscience has been condemned because he took the initiative to stand up, but the active figure of David and others.
It couldn't be a simpler method. When David and the others sat in the assassin's house and asked him to choose whether to save himself or his wife and several children, everything happened naturally...
A bit despicable, but justice is never the norm in gray space!
…
It was like a fuse was lit, and what happened next was even more shocking. If the incident involving the university scholar and the church involved came out to refute the rumors, then the various cases of murder and murder that were reported one after another were so well-founded that all the churches were silenced.
By now, if you still can't see that these things are directly directed at the Temple of Light, then there is no need for these church bishops to mess around.
Sure enough, after a few days of planning, a heavy blow came - the Temple of Light secretly colluded with the Bounty Hunter Guild, eliminated dissidents, and killed countless people!
This is David's strategy, step by step, first select a few relatively influential events, whether the world believes it or not, first attract a lot of attention, and then naturally lead to the final result, the final word!
To be honest, except for the fanatic believers who are still shouting loudly, most ordinary believers are almost mentally numb at this time. Emotionally speaking, of course they are willing to believe in the Temple of Light. But intellectually speaking, the conclusive evidence of the temple's shady story made them hesitate...
This feeling is probably like what Shanxi City's well-known Director of Security said in private - if there is no problem with the evidence, then there is a problem with the facts. And if there is a problem with the facts, then the shamelessness is a big problem!
Facts have proved that the Temple of Light has been shameless for a long time... As soon as the Bounty Hunter Guild incident broke out, the numb hearts of the believers completely collapsed. They couldn't wait to see the temple's cookie-cutter response again, and boundless anger instantly spread all over northern Bran. Explodes violently.
There is a saying that the more you love, the more you hate.
A lifetime of faith collapsed! The psychology of the believers can no longer be simply described as 'hate'. They are renounced and angry, and their attitude towards the temple has turned into a deformed and perverted...
At this point, the Temple of Light's unshakable power in the north is in turmoil...
