Inside the three-storey house with front and rear gardens, it was supposed to be quiet as night fell.

However, it was noisy at this point.

This kind of noise is not perceptible to normal people, and only some abnormal people can hear it.

"What a feud, brother, we just passed by and wanted to peek into the private lives of the NPCs in the plot, so there's no need to report us, right?"

"That's right, our brothers didn't get in the way of you doing the task, as for pulling that NPC over?"

"It's okay now, we have to reincarnate again, damn, do you know how hard we put in the numbers, there aren't many new corpses in this place."

"I'm blind this girl."

“……”

“……”

"I said you are talking, brother, after the report, do you see jokes like a nobody?"

"Let's ignore him, it's too damaging to this person......"

……

The two voices alternated back and forth, and the mixed emotions were full of resentment.

On the other hand, no one responded to their words.

But after a while, their words began to shift direction.

"Damn, this NPC is poisonous, why are there fewer and fewer lies in my reply options?"

"Mine is the same way, and I don't know what's going on, the emotional option is repentance except repentance."

"Something is wrong? Hurry up and record it. ”

"It's already being recorded. But what now? ”

"You can choose not to reply."

"It's a pity that this is a pity, the average player can't talk to this NPC."

"It's all like this, you still want this?"

……

In fact, if you put aside these inaudible voices, Bernie's residence is not very chaotic at this time.

One question and two answers, at first their words were full of lies, and the latter two simply shut up and said nothing.

However, that didn't stop Bernie from continuing to learn from them.

"For evil spirits like you, who are good at possessing dead bodies, the Church has experimented with a viable method of interrogation."

Sitting in a chair in the bedroom, gazing at a man and a woman tied to the bedpost, Bernie said, "You can conjure weapons or anything out of thin air, but if you tie every finger of yours, you can't use whatever you conjure." ”

Under the "expressionless" gaze of the two men, he added: "That is, if I use this method of interrogation, you will not be able to leave your current body. This time can be a day or a year. ”

After the words were over, the room seemed to be quiet.

But Bernie could clearly hear the voices of the two of them as a result.

"This group of NPCs is so smart, they can think of this way."

"Before we are trapped in Zongzi, let's kill ourselves."

"Is it possible, suicide right under this person's nose? We can't get past others quickly. ”

"What then?"

"With that, do you really want to be locked up in a prison for a year and not be able to move?"

……

So it was very easy, and the two players confessed like this.

They don't really know much, except that they were sent to infiltrate the Hull Town in order to cooperate with the actions of a certain Sea Tribe.

As for what the action was, they didn't know, because they hadn't told them yet, only that when the time came, they would tell them their next move through the "special contact method of the evil spirits".

However, Bernie didn't need to know about it, and he could even say that he could have known the situation without interrogating the two men.

At present, his behavior is just to facilitate the occurrence of another thing.

So when it felt like it was almost over, Bernie suddenly changed his mind.

"Obviously, you are not loyal to those behind you."

"So maybe we can work together," he said. ”

“……”

“……”

"What does he mean by that?"

"Literally!"

"But the church doesn't seem to be very friendly to the player......"

"This time and that time, brother, this is obviously a hidden mission! Or maybe it's just a faction choice! ”

"What then?"

"Talk to the president. If you can really connect with the church, it is much better than with the old blind man. ”

……

The room fell silent, and Bernie, who was sitting in his chair, waited patiently.

The reason for his actions at this point is not for the sake of the matter itself, but about the player's use.

At present, his apparent status as a priest cannot be blatantly in-depth contact with players.

Because the church is very repulsive to the player's evil spirit.

But the church in Shiphull is currently in Bernie's hands.

So if there is a good reason, he can cooperate with the player to a certain extent.

This kind of cooperation, unlike his secret support of the player, is "public" in nature and has to be reported to the upper echelons of the church.

And this report is Bernie's real purpose-

He had known for a long time that the Terran Front Alliance Guild was mixed up with a group of infidels who had been expelled from Shiphull, or that he had done it all.

At the same time, he didn't think that the infidels would not be able to see some of the special abilities of the players after being in contact with the players for a long time.

If you can see it, it is naturally possible to want to use it, and the group of infidels did not go far after being expelled, and are still in a hidden island somewhere in the sea near Hammer Island, so the direction of their use can be imagined-

Use the player's backpack to transport food, resell forbidden items, use them to sneak in and listen to news, and so on.

As soon as this exploitation occurs, he has the opportunity to follow the clues and finally write a report on the fact that the infidels are using the player for profit.

This is not a report, but a reminder.

Remind the Church that there's more to the Church's presence than just chaos.

There are also variations.

Among other things, the ability of players to teleport and chat is not something that ordinary church members can do, and it is a means that only the higher echelons of the church can use in important work.

So, if the heretics are able to take advantage of the player, why can't the Church?

Of course, it wasn't Bernie's purpose to remind the church, his purpose was to give his priesthood a proper reason to take advantage of the player's presence, and even directly recruit player members to serve as cannon fodder.

This rebellion is a proper reason, as it involves the Sea Clan and the Infidels, both of whom are hostile forces that need to be taken seriously by the Church, especially in the current situation.

At the same time, this kind of rebellion happened naturally, without any trace of human interference.

People would only think that the idea of rebellion was a bold move by Bernie on a whim, but not that he had been leading it for a long time.

Then, as long as this "cooperation" can be successfully completed, it is natural to use the players to do other things.

This is tantamount to bringing the player base from the "behind" to the forefront.

And when the player group comes to the foreground and intersects with normal human society, when ancient people and modern people officially begin to collide, it will inevitably trigger greater sparks.
