Chapter 12: Conspiracy
As it turned out, Shen Xi's worries were right.
Ruan An's figure disappeared for a moment, and then reappeared in front of Shen Xi, "My lord, it's the reply of the Temple of Death." ”
The reply letter had gold letters on a black background, and the cover was densely written "C173 World Left Capo System, Planet Noah, Seabrus Empire, Former Grand Duke Samuel Grant Pollution Report". It was Panakaya who had been reminded of the suspected Shadow Void infection that needed to be reported directly to the High God Abitos.
Now is not the time to open the envelope and care about why a dead ghost is polluted by the shadow void, Shen Xi looked at the white ball of light in front of him again.
At this moment, Yu Qian was in a dilemma, in front of him was the Minister of Finance, Kimbil, who was in tatters and tried to gain the support of the true gods by betraying the interests of the principality, and beside him was Fenrir, the chief administrator with an unbelievable face, and Viscount Prescott, the rightful heir of the principality, who broke the corners of his eyes because of anger and was bleeding and gritting his teeth.
"Yu Qian, can you hear me?" Shen Xi looked at Yu Qian, who was in trouble in the ball of light, and suddenly asked out loud.
In the ball of light, a pillar of light suddenly appeared on Yu Qian's body again. What followed was Yu Qian's response. "Very clearly, my lord. ”
"Listen, do as I say, and remember, do exactly what I say, no more than one step, no more step. This is very crucial to my plan! if the verdict is triggered, I am wiped out, and you don't have a good life!"
The pillar of light vanished, and Kimbier lay on the ground, trembling with excitement. The huge pillar of light in front of him was a manifestation of divine revelation. It is a sign that occurs when a god talks directly to a servant of the gods in the nether. Come to think of it, God must be very satisfied with his own conditions and sincerity, so he needs to speak directly to the servant of God. Kimpier knelt on the ground, as if he had seen more than ten years later, standing on the highest wall of Iris City, the former capital of the Seabrus Empire, and was regarded as the greatest founding emperor by tens of millions of people, and with a real god behind him as a backer, the wild boar family crest of the Kimpier family will definitely be able to shine forever on Iris City, the capital of the Seabrus Empire.
The pillar of light vanished, and the revelation ended. Divine servant Yu Qian looked at Jin Bier, and a smile appeared on his face that seemed perfect to Jin Bier. The smile was full of satisfaction, but also a bit of greed and appreciation. "You're doing a great job. God has a high opinion of you. ”
"Your Excellency, Kimpier and his accomplices are cunning and mercenary, and have no aristocratic glory or loyalty at all! You must not be gullible in the bargain he has proposed, my lord!" said Viscount Prescott, srieving. In the process of struggling, he only felt that his body was loosened, and the invisible pressure that was suppressing him seemed to be broken. Viscount Prescott roared, stumbled around Yu Qian, took out a gold-inlaid knife from his bosom that the nobles used to cut barbecue when they were camping, and stabbed it towards Kimbil.
"Presumptuous!" The angry expression on Yu Qian's face appeared at the right time, he flicked his sleeves, and a wall of white light appeared in front of Prescott, narrowly blocking the viscount's desperate blow. "You despicable and impudent, how dare you commit murder in front of this seat?!"
The wall woven of white light quickly disintegrated, turning into a rope that emitted white light. A few twists of the rope, almost in the blink of an eye, tied Viscount Prescott into a dazzling mummy.
"For the impudent, boundless chaos is the best place to reflect. Yu Qian stared coldly at the mummy who was still twitching slightly, his eyes turned to the right, and he looked at Fenrir, the chief steward who had just gotten up from the ground, "You incompetent person, also go to the chaos with him to reflect!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Fenrir turned into a puppet that seemed to have been sucked out of his skeleton and collapsed to the ground. Viscount Prescott, who was mummified, also stopped struggling at the same time.
"They...... Are you dead?" asked Kimbil, looking at the two men who had stopped struggling, and his voice trembled.
Such a rude in the presence of a servant of God does not have to be punished with death, but it must be paid. Our Lord is very fair in this. Yu Qian smiled gently at Kimbier, "Their six senses have been sealed by me, their consciousness has been banished into the indescribable void and chaos, and their physical bodies will be preserved as prison cells until they have atoned for their sins." ”
"As for the time limit for their exile...... Yu Qian motioned for Kimpier to stand up and smiled, "If you're lucky, you may be able to see them released at the end of your life." ”
Kimbier struggled to get up from the ground, afraid to touch the ground because his right foot was numb. He could only let a tall squire who followed him support him, and his face stained with mud and dried blood looked embarrassed.
"Come here. Yu Qian pointed to another short guard and said, "Go and look for that old man to see if he has any personal belongings." Then he went to the bottom of the Thunder Bluff, and said that he had been instructed by Chief Fenrir to come and take it in. Finally bring them to the camp. As for the fainting Assassins in the jungle, leave a message in the camp and indicate the location of the camp. ”
The dwarf squires took the order and left, while the other squires began to gather the scattered knights. However, after a cup of tea, the hundreds of knights scattered around were regrouped, and the energetic guards were around Qian and Kimbier.
"Your Excellency, please get on your horse. After helping Kimbier to get on the horse, the high attendant walked to the horse, knelt down, and planned to use his own back instead of the horse stool, and wait for Yu Qian to get on the horse.
Yu Qian waved his hand, "This kind of etiquette can only be borne by my master, if I accept this great gift, it is equivalent to trespassing." It's a long way to go, so you can ride your own horseback. As soon as he said that, he shook his body, and the whole person floated up, and said leisurely, "I'll follow you." ”
Seeing that the plan was going well, Shen Xi finally had the time to open the report and start reading. The language used in the report was markedly different from any language Shen Xi knew. But when the square-shaped words came into view, Shen Xi could understand and read without pause.
The Temple of Death also took Ruan An's request for assistance very seriously, and immediately terminated Samuel's captivity. and prepared to bring it up to the temple for a second interrogation. However, the moment the transfer passage was opened, all the automatic defenses in the temple were activated. The soul of Grand Duke Samuel, escorted by the Divine Servant, was completely reduced to nothingness by the automatic defensive fire in the transfer passage. Not even the divine servant who escorted him left a trace.
Not to mention the Temple of Death, all the temples in the entire C173 have never had a similar accident since records began to the present. Records of the automated defenses clearly indicate that they detected a strong shadow signal the moment the diversion channel opened. Therefore, according to the pre-set, the automatic defense device carried out a direct elimination operation on the soul of Archduke Samuel according to the plan of the Shadow Void invasion. That hapless servant was just a regrettable side injury.
The automatic defense device determined that Archduke Samuel's soul was tainted by the Shadow Void. But this is simply not possible in theory. First of all, the Shadow Void is a strong and malignant infection, once a mortal's soul is polluted by the Shadow Void, then within a few seconds, the mortal's soul will be completely devoured. Therefore, it is certain that the soul of Grand Duke Samuel was not infected in the Nether - if it was infected in the Nether, then the Shadow Dancer would probably be completely destroyed by the outbreak of Shadow Pollution before he could flee. There was no chance of escape.
And it is even more impossible to be tainted by shadow while serving imprisonment. From the moment the soul is ushered into the Temple of Death for Judgment, the soul is locked in the temple for the remainder of the time. Once the Shadow Void invades, it will be destroyed by the automatic defense equipment, and it is absolutely impossible to have the ability to pollute the soul without triggering the defense equipment.
The temple was invaded in a theoretically impossible way, and the consequences of the invasion were extremely devastating - the death of a servant of the gods, and the termination of a request for the assistance of a trainee god. The matter had been reported to Abitos, and the High God took it very seriously. So much so that a divine servant was stationed outside Shen Xi's temple, and as soon as Shen Xi went out, he would be brought to see Abitos.
So Shen Xi, who had just gone out and was about to go to the public area, was intercepted by the divine servant. Panakaya suggested that Shen Xi take a look at the trading area in the temple's public area, where there might be generic miracle scrolls for sale.
Universal miracles correspond to exclusive miracles, and can be performed as long as there is a godhead. For example, a large-scale kagura performance, an aroma that can cover the entire city, or a golden god pattern that can float in the air, which is thousands of blades high. It's all gadgets that don't really work.
However, the good thing about universal miracles is that they don't need to consume divine power, and as long as a god has mastered a universal miracle, he can make scrolls that teach this miracle in batches. If Shen Xi was able to get his hands on a batch of these scrolls in the trading area, then at least when it needed to come in handy later, he wouldn't have to ask Panakaya for help - even though Abitos had entrusted Panakaya to guide Shen Xi, it was impossible for Panakaya to stay in the Taihe Hall to help him deal with the problem.
"Teacher, are you looking for me?" was taken to the temple of Abytos by the servant, and looked at the beautiful hills and the colorful sky as if he were in a different world. He felt that he had just woken up from here a few hours ago, and now he had become a "god" with strange duties. His temple is almost completely modeled after the Forbidden City, and he is also sitting on the dragon chair of the Taihe Temple, planning a "small plot to subvert the principality." ”
"I've received a report from the Temple of the Dead that the Shadow Void invasion is a very serious matter, and this form of invasion has never been seen before. I've reported it to the Temple of the Gods, and a dedicated investigator will be asking you questions about it soon. Abitos' expression was extremely serious, he looked at Shen Xi and asked, "But before that, can you explain to me why you let the Death Temple re-interrogate that soul?"
