Chapter 243: Fulfilling Promises

531

At night, inside a building in the Joe Wood district.

Hugh returned home in the drizzle, and while wiping his hair with a towel, he said to Folth:

"Your letter has been sent."

Furth let out an "um" and secretly guessed when the teacher would be able to reply.

At this time, Hugh put down the towel and said casually:

"There's news from Mr. X's party, it's the same place it was before, Friday night."

Well, you can tell Mr. "World"! I don't know how much I have to pay...... Furth's eyes lit up.

Before she could ask for details, Hugh added to herself:

"Mr. X also gave him a job that was said to be very lucrative, well, tell him about someone he knows is not lucky."

"Someone with bad luck?" Furth whispered in confusion, "There's something wrong with this gentleman's brain, right?" Who would divulge about their surroundings at such a party? It's easy to find out who you really are. ”

"Who knows? Maybe it's really a madman. Hugh didn't know anyone with bad luck, so he replied unconcernedly.

After thinking about it for a while, he still couldn't figure out the true purpose of this task, so he could only put it behind him, and prepared to wait for Hugh to go to the bath, pray to Mr. "Fool", and pass on the corresponding message to "World" Gelman Sparrow.

……

Crane on the Source Fort received this request, and it just so happened that he had just communicated with Will Unsetin, the "Serpent of Mercury", and used the power of the Source Fort and a "Time Worm" left by Amon to create a demigod-level high-level charm.

After hearing Furth's words, he first chose to divinate on the source castle "It is dangerous to assassinate Mr. X", and the citrine pendulum rotates clockwise, which is dangerous, and may be acceptable.

Mr. X, Louis Vane himself is an extraordinary person in Sequence 6 or even Sequence 5, and there is also the Aurora Society behind him, and maybe even the "Angel of Destiny" Ulorius.

In this way, the danger of assassination is even smaller, and the danger only comes from Mr. X himself. It may be because the "Angel of Destiny" is in Silver City at this time, and will not provide assistance to Mr. X who is far away in the Northern Continent, and the true creator may not care.

The result of such a divination was not surprising to him.

He didn't reply immediately, but went straight back to the bed.

In the middle of the night, he suddenly opened his eyes, and then sat up startled by the earth-shattering explosion, and fell asleep, and then he just opened his eyes until dawn, and he didn't get a good night's sleep.

Soon Walter came in and saluted him:

"Sir, there was a huge gas explosion south of Beckland, which caused a small earthquake, are you alright?"

"It's fine." Somehow, Crane thought of Hazel, who was always running down the sewers, but it was impossible for Hazel, who could only move for an hour or so, to run directly south and back, he sighed and said, "I need to rest." ”

Walter complied and left the room with Richardson.

After they left, Crane, who had fallen asleep at all, took on the form of Gelman Sparrow and prayed to the "Fool":

“…… I can take on this task, but whether it succeeds or not, I want your bracelet, a stone, and access to that magic book for a while.

"If it succeeds, all the loot will be mine, and you can only take the target's head.

"You'll have to help if you need to."

"Looks like you've been doing well lately?"

Edward sat down and said to the Dark Sage beside him, "I brought some coffee beans from the Southern Continent, please help me make a cup of coffee." ”

The Dark Sage peeked at the True Creator, and when he saw that she didn't say anything, he bowed slightly: "Okay." ”

The Dark Sage departed, and the two mythical creatures in the room looked at each other.

The True Creator sat on the single couch opposite, silent, the escaped spirituality turned into ghostly wings, cascading on her shoulders and waist, and the brighter the light around her, the darker and darker her direction became.

There was more gold in her hair, and the eroded black was slowly receding to the ends.

Edward looked at her with interest for a moment, and said with a smile, "You have indeed received great benefits from your previous promotions, and I can see that you seem to have regained the direction of 'the Creator of all, the all-knowing and all-powerful God', the 'Hanged Man' is omniscient and omnipotent, and the 'Dreamer' creates everything. You and her happen to be the two central authorities, but in terms of the cornerstone alone, you are indeed the more suitable choice. ”

The true Creator has conceived the language: "You, through the 'memory of calamity', I have been washed away of my divinity, I have experienced the joys, sorrows, and sorrows of being a human being nearly a thousand times, and I have repelled the divine self and even the divinity itself, in order to curb the original revival?" ”

"Yes."

"But I remember that you were not afraid of death, or the return of the 'original'."

The conversation between the gods gradually became unsuitable for the angels, and in the middle of the process, the Dark Sage entered the room with tea and coffee, and they remained silent until the other left, then re-isolating the contents of the room from the outside world.

"Not minding doesn't mean I'm happy, it's our instinct and the meaning of life to pursue a higher and right end, but anyway, God doesn't set when this time will end, so we can put it off as much as we like."

The end of the "right" ...... The real Creator is figuring out this new concept.

Edward smiled, "Ally, didn't you always dare to make me a god because you weren't strong enough?" Now that you have obtained the power of a true god and a higher direction, in return, you will have no more opinions on me becoming a god, right? ”

The True Creator replied, "Your asking price is a little cheaper than what I have gotten." So, you're sure to have something else to gain. ”

"If you want to make up the difference......"

"I don't want to."

In fact, rubbing the symbol of "God" and corresponding to "Heaven", such a occult connection is good for both of us, when your shadow covers the Eastern Continent, I borrow your eyes to see something in the southwest of God's Forsaken Land and I have a sense, maybe it is...... Edward disagreed: "That's fine, I'm not a calculating god. ”

"What kind of assistance are you going to provide to the Southern Continent?"

Edward naturally changed the subject: "It has been almost half a month since the restoration of the Byron Empire and the Grim Reaper declared war on the Northern Continent, and the Northern Continent has begun to organize an effective resistance, and the Intis colony seems to have finally understood the truth that 'when the lips disappear, the teeth will be cold', and began to provide a little limited support to the garrison on the Rune side......"

"But they are very easy to deal with, and they don't have a firm will to fight, they just need a little gold, spices, and silk bribes from the Southern Continent."

"There is a war below, and business will be done above."

Edward took a sip of his favorite coffee:

"The army of the Byron Empire is actually not very good, and it is all supported by the extraordinary people of the Church of the Reaper. Seventy percent of the hallucinogenic drugs produced in the southern continent were sold to the northern continent, and thirty percent were consumed by the southern continent itself, and the average life expectancy of the people under the oppression and endless high-pressure labor was less than fifty, and it was a fool's dream to expect them to be able to form a slightly better army. Now that the demigods of the Northern Continent have joined the fray, they have been held back by the garrisons of the two countries, and they have been fighting for several days on the Star Plateau in West Bailang, and have not been able to liberate the sixth city. ”

The True Creator had been preparing for his promotion and had not known much about the situation.

She was more aware of the current situation in Beckland than in the Southland, which had been burned down after the Byron Empire had taken initial power and had taken over the rebellious cities, and many plantations had been burned down after a round of cotton picking.

The Church of the Reaper has set aside a team to do this, burning down the plantation and quickly driving the living corpses and the necromancers to reopen the field and plant crops, carrying one or two seals of the "cultivator" path, which can immediately put the land to use.

In this way, the Byron Empire initially increased its grain productivity and reduced its exports.

The Northern Continent lost its resources, and the collapse was especially noticeable.

Cotton exports have been greatly reduced, a large number of textile mills have been forced to lay off workers or even close down, and workers who have lost their jobs are either wandering back to the streets in fear or taking up signs to try to get some attention for themselves by marching.

But the government didn't pay much attention to this, and there was no immediate means of regulation, and after the demonstration, the unemployed workers had to go back to the East End to compete with the people of the East End for some hard and tiring work, or to become street girls again in exchange for some food.

The export of grain has plummeted, and although the Church of the Grim Reaper has not yet recovered East Bailang, they have reached out to the merchants who are engaged in the grain business in East Bailang, and they will receive unknown intimidation, assassination, and if the price of food is not lowered and exports are reduced, the bodies of him and his family will be hung in front of the church of the gods they believe in.

“…… Oh, have you ever heard of Javier Rainer? I heard that it was he who resolutely refused to make peace with the Church of the Grim Reaper, believing that the greedy Church of the Grim Reaper would never be satisfied with changing the governor of a city - as a result, neither the governor nor his companions listened to his advice, and there was a mutiny in the city of Aldra, and he died—oh, now the people of the House of Commons like to use the word 'sacrifice' or 'martyrdom' to refer to him as a truly brilliant Rune. ”

Edward recalls with interest what happened a few months ago, and then connects it with the current domestic voice in Rune, no matter how many times he watches it, he will not get bored.

"I'm familiar with it, but I can't remember the name or the person at all."

Precious metals, minerals and spices have also been greatly reduced, and Rune has iron ore in the country, and he is not very keen on spices, so he has not suffered much impact, but Intis, who abuses spices and precious metals, has been hit hard, and the price of luxury goods in the country has skyrocketed, and Rune and the countries of the Northern Continent have suffered together.

Now, the price of gold has tripled and is gaining momentum.

The volatile economic and social environment has led to a sharp increase in unemployment and increased discrimination against people of mixed race in the South.

And turmoil and panic are good opportunities for evil gods to develop their faith and attract believers.

Thanks to the cooperation with the Ernst Foundation and the Pilgrimage Sect, the Aurora Society has recently been baptized by new members, providing the true creator with Southlanders and half-bloods from all walks of life, including many wealthy merchants with high status in the Northern Continent.

The increase in channels and a large number of dedication have given the Aurora Society sufficient funds to absorb new members, coupled with the vision of the world where the real creator has become a god, the status of the Aurora Society in the hidden organization has been rising, and it has been upgraded from the first cult to the king of cults.

“…… I can offer some assistance. ”

The True Creator said: "I have a responsibility to my followers, and the responsibility is to detonate the war as soon as possible, and also to end the war as soon as possible. ”

"How are you going to help?"

"I'll send Medici over."

"You're doing this very well." Edward applauded, "Then again, the trajectory of Medici's behavior has been quite interesting lately. ”

"What?"

"She said she had found something interesting in the sewers, and that she had gotten into a fight with someone in the sewers yesterday and lit a fire that almost sent half of Beckland to the sky."

Edward smiled and pulled out three wanted copies stamped by the church, offering a reward for those who had entered the sewers the night before.

There was no portrait, but he drew a figure of a model lake very spiritually, and threw a torch into the sewer in an extremely arrogant pose.
