Chapter Twenty-Six: Preparing for Encirclement and Suppression

Peston listened and asked Diggs, the mission is to kill people, aren't you afraid that something will happen to you?

Diggs put down the gun in his hand and said, no, I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid of being hurt, I'm not afraid of death. But I'm afraid that I won't be able to grasp the opportunity, I'm afraid that I'll be like those who don't do anything, not known to the world, I want to live for a hundred years, I want to stand at the top of the church, and control my own destiny.

,, Be careful,, Just then, a rebel rushed out from behind Diggs, and saw this man Peston shouting a warning.

Da, da. Diggs turned around and fired a burst with the machine gun in his hand. After the rebel was beaten into a sieve, Diggs said without looking back, thank you, but now I'm going to collect my credit. With that, Diggs left with his gun.

After Diggs left, Peston wandered aimlessly around the factory, dodging the rebels without firing a shot.

Don't move, put your gun down, or I'll shoot."

Peston heard a voice behind him, turned around, and pointed his gun at the man behind him.

It's you! Looking at the rebels in front of him, Peston found that one of them was the guard at the gate on the day he came.

You're that friend of Patrigi! The rebel recognized Peston and lowered his gun.

Don't talk about it, you guys go quickly, it's not safe here.

Seeing his partner drop his gun, a rebel who had never seen Peston refused, "No, let's not listen to him, he's a lackey of the church, and he'll shoot him as soon as we turn around."

Hearing this, Peston pointed to the gate behind the rebels, I want to kill you, and I don't need you to turn around at all. I repeat, go quickly, it's not safe here.

But

Just as the rebel was about to speak again, the man who knew Peston interrupted him, "Don't say anything, let's go, he's not a bad guy."

At the man's insistence, several of the rebels gave Peston a deep look, then turned and entered the gate.

As soon as the rebels had left, a group of heavily armed raiders rushed in, and when they saw Peston, they asked, "Priest, have you found anything?"

Peston stood in front of the gate where the rebels had left, and pointed in the direction behind him, I had just come from here and had not seen anyone. Then he tilted his head to the right and said, "I heard gunfire in this direction, and you should go to support now."

The leader of the clean-up team nodded after glancing at the gate behind Pearson, and then ran to the right with the others. Slowly, the gunfire gradually subsided, and Peston walked out of the factory without firing a shot.

After Peston sat in the car outside for a while, one of the clean-up officers knocked on his glass, Sir, Chief Diggs, please come over.

Peston lowered the window and asked, "What's the matter?"

I don't know, but it seems to be in a secret room, capturing a few rebels alive.

Peston got out of the car and followed the leader of the team to a secret room.

When Diggs saw Peston coming in, he patted the iron box next to him and said, "Sir, look at what I found!" The rebels' secret radio station, and several surviving rebel members.

Look at Diggs' radio station and the rebels who were let go by themselves. Peston squinted and said, Oh, yes! Then I'm going to congratulate you, and you've added another credit to it.

Well, yes, these people were lucky enough to escape the pursuit, but Skynet was restored and not leaked, and I found it this time.

Is it! Looking at the rebels he knew, one by one did not speak, but only looked at him with pleading eyes, Pesson's hand trembled slightly. Because these people are not emotionless ecclesiasticals, but living people.

What, want to get your hands dirty? Seeing that Peston's hand was shaking, Diggs playfully handed the gun to Peston and said with a smile, I am your deputy, so you should also have a share of the credit.

Seeing the gun handed by Diggs, Peston did not take it, but hesitated and said, these people, I think we should bring them to the church, maybe they know some secrets of the rebels, it is too decisive to kill them like this, we should give them a fair trial.

Trial! Diggs put the gun back into his waist, and the order of the church was to execute on the spot, all the rebels here, not to be judged.

Peston listened, and hurriedly argued, no, Diggs, we need these people, not killings for no reason.

Diggs looked sharply at Peston and said in a deep voice, killing!! Sir, I want you to calm down. This is the command of the Church, the will of the Father. And the process is not important to you and me, it is important to complete the priest's instructions. Because it's not a principle for us, it's a belief and a mission. Sir, you don't want to disobey, do you?

Hearing Diggs's words, Peston looked at the dozen or so members of the Sweepers around him, clenched his fists fiercely, and waited for a while before he let go, Yes, as a loyal Priest of Choradman, I will resolutely uphold the priest's orders.

After hearing the answer he wanted, Diggs turned to Peston and asked, "Do you want to give the order yourself?" Sir?

Looking at the innocent look again, Peston shook his head and turned and walked out of the chamber. And when he took the last step, he heard Diggs's cold words, the bullet loaded, and the shot ,,。 Listening to the gunfire behind him, Peston quickened his pace.

,,, story starts again, and since then, Peston has had nightmares every day, and in the dreams there will always be the pleading stares of the rebels at him. Confused, he decided to change, to change the cold-blooded and ruthless church, and to rule that bordered on brutality.

One night, he finds Gigan again and breaks his oath in front of the idol, the oath he had made all his life to defend the church, and joins the rebels.

In the underground passage, Peston asked Gigan in front of him, Gigan, I know what I want now, what I want is to end this cold world, what do you need me to do now?

Upon learning of Pesston's actions, Gigan replied firmly, "We have installed explosives in all the Pacian factories, and all you have to do now is to meet the priest and kill him, leaving the church leaderless."

Meet the priest! Peston thought for a moment and shook his head, "That's unlikely, I haven't been able to see him even when I've been promoted to High Priest, let alone now."

No, it's possible.

What's the solution?

Jing Ke stabbed the king of Qin, borrowed his head, and approached the king's body.

Peston looked at the resolute Gigan and asked, "Whose head can I borrow to get close to the priest?"

Gigan pointed to the dozen or so computer projections gathered around the conference table, these are the leaders of various rebel groups, and we are now gathered together to overthrow the dream of the church. I believe that as long as we have our head, you will be able to meet the priest, and after seeing the priest, as long as you kill him and the other high-ranking people around him, we will blow up the Pasian factory. As a factory that supports millions of people across the city, there is only a day of pause, and the humanity of recovery can help us achieve this goal.

Peston looked at these, and the other rebel leaders who used the projection equipment couldn't believe that these people were fearless heroes.

After seeing his hesitation, a projected leader said, Pearson, you don't have to worry, everyone here has a blood feud with the church, and we people will not be executed immediately after being caught by the church, so as long as the arrangements are made, even if we can't do anything, our lives can be guaranteed. You know, there are not a few humane clergymen like you in the church.

After the leader finished speaking, the other man continued, "Our war with the church has been going on for too long, and we have always been at a disadvantage. So this qiē needs to change, and you, Pesston, you are the biggest change. You are cautious, you are calm, and you are a high-ranking priest of the Church, so with your joining, the possibility of this beheading plan has been maximized. I don't want you, and I don't want your children to be two emotionless machines. So now is the time for us to sacrifice our lives for righteousness, and believe me, it will be written in history today.

Peston listened to the others like this, and at last he nodded and said, "In that case, let's arrange it, and I will go to church now and meet Vice President Dupen." Once the qiē is arranged, we can get started.

Seeing that Peston agreed to this risky plan, another rebel leader said sternly, Pesteron, put aside your concerns, you must know that we are not for ourselves and our rights, but for the future of mankind. So we have a strong conviction and a determination to subvert the church. We are for the future, for the future of our children,,。

Looking at the excited people in front of him, beside Jigan, old Luke, who was in charge of Jigen's safety, stopped talking. Rook disagreed with the actions of these people, and in his opinion this plan was too risky, because none of the people present knew the strength of the church better than him, not to mention the rest of the church, and the arrogant, crazy, cruel, and ruthless presiding judge who was hidden in the Inquisition, was not something that he and others could try.

Although that person hadn't done anything for more than ten years, Rook didn't dare to take it lightly at all. It was precisely because of this that he stopped what he wanted to say, because his family was under the custody of the Inquisition, and as long as he disobeyed the orders of the church, none of his family members would survive. Old Rook is a dutiful son, not only has his wife and children in the Inquisition, but also the gray-haired old mother, and the church has promised itself that as long as he does it beautifully this time, he and his family will never be injected with Passian again. To this end, the elder Rooker did not hesitate to betray John and let him be shot to death.

After ,,, left the stronghold, Peston went directly to the church to meet Dupen, he stood in Dupen's office, and asked him, "Sir, I have something I want to ask you.

Du Pon stopped the pen in his hand, looked up and said, What's the matter!

Peston bowed his head and said, "I want to see Father Priest, you know, I've been in the church for so many years, and I've been frustrated that I haven't been able to see him in person." The priest is our faith, our soul, and I want to crawl at his feet and listen to the priest's will.

When Dupon heard this, he rose from his seat with joy, and was good, priest. In you, you embody the loyalty that a qualified priest should have, and this loyalty is often more important than your ability.

Can you grant my request?

Dupon thought for a moment, but shook his head regretfully, sorry, priest. Father Priest, he has been an old man for a long time and has not seen anyone, so I can only express my deep regret for your request.

When Peston heard this, he asked reluctantly, sir, doesn't the priest even want to see all the loyal priests of the rebels who can clear him in one fell swoop?

Dupont looked at Pesson and said word by word, you mean, clear, all the rebels???

Peston nodded earnestly, yes, sir, I should have known where the rebels were, and I would very much like to see the priest and tell him the good news.

Hearing that the priest's last wish was about to be fulfilled in his own hands, Dupon said incoherently, "Good, very good, very good, Priest Pesterton, you have done a very good job, I have granted this request of yours, you will immediately arrange for someone to arrest the leader of the rebels, as long as you can do it, I will give up this old face, and I will ask the priest to see you."

Thank you and you are waiting for my good news. With that, Peston turned and left Dupont's office.

When Pesterton was gone, Dupon stood by the wall and looked out the window, and after a while, he picked up the phone on the table and said, "My old friend, the time is ripe."
