"Goncharov, I want to send you to the Aztec Empire to negotiate with Montezuma III, and at the same time to establish a church in the local area and propagate the truth."

St. Basil's Cathedral, Mavi looked at Goncharov, who was standing in front of him, with the snow on his shoulders that had not yet melted, and said: "Before answering, I hope you will think carefully, this task is very dangerous, the slightest mistake will lead to death, and the support that the church can give you is limited, let alone guarantee your safety." ”

Hearing Mavi's task, Goncharov pondered for a moment and suddenly realized: "The two people who braved the snow and wind the day before yesterday to come to St. Laure's Cathedral."

The voice paused, and there were some things that didn't need to be exposed, just know it.

"So I've already seen the goddess."

Goncharov smiled slightly, and pressed his right hand to his chest: "Father, I am willing to go to the Aztec Empire and preach. ”

"Have you figured it out?"

"Thinking about it, that's my decision."

"Good." Ma Wei nodded: "You can freely choose your companions, form a mission to the Aztec Empire, and I will send the Aurora Society to infiltrate the Western Continent and protect you secretly." ”

This is already the limit of what Ma Wei can do, the funds are guaranteed to be abundant, but he can't send too many people to the Western Continent, if he encounters a strong enemy, the situation will get out of control.

"I want a cat." Goncharov said: "A talking cat blessed by the goddess. ”

"Do you have a choice?"

"I have a bobtail cat of mine, it is my companion named Dorothy, and if I can be blessed by the goddess, I want to take him to the Aztec Empire."

Ma Wei nodded in agreement, "No problem, you can bring it to the church, and Unia will give it wisdom." ”

"Thank you, Father."

With the assistance of cats, Goncharov can also relieve some pressure in the Aztec Empire, of course, not only cats, but also other members of the mission.

In addition to Goncharov, the Truth Church also began to send believers to other countries such as the First Bonaparte Empire and the Roman Republic to carry out covert missionary work and collect information to send back to the Holy See.

If you want to overthrow the Apocalypse Divine System, this is an indispensable step, and believers will always accumulate a lot, and only with a foundation can they develop and grow.

And these believers sent to other kingdoms faced no less danger than Goncharov, and if they were not careful, they would be branded as pagans and dragged to trial.

The Church of Truth infiltrates the territory of the Apocalypse Divine Department, and of course the Apocalypse Divine Department will also send spies to break into the territory of the Church of Truth, and the longer the stalemate between the two sides, the more spies will be.

There is an army of cats, and the Church of Truth is not afraid of any spies, which is Ma Wei's confidence.

A week later, Goncharov finally chose the person who would accompany him to the Aztec Empire, and in addition to the members of the Aurora Society, he actually chose Evgeny as his deputy, and Mavi did not ask for a reason, just as Goncharov did not ask about the identity of the homeless.

Escorted by the Royal Navy, accompanied by the Aurora Society, the mission totaled fifteen people, not large but brought many potions as gifts, before leaving, Yevgeny trembled, looking silent, even if he had been promoted to a priest, his face did not show the slightest happy expression.

He probably didn't do it voluntarily, but Goncharov took him with him.

Amid the sound of a high-spirited whistle, Goncharov stood on the deck and looked at Mosk from afar, he did not know when he would return, the snow-covered city was destined to become his spiritual sustenance in a foreign land.

Click!

In the flashing lights, the cameraman filmed this memorable scene, and Ma Wei, who came to see him off, looked at the warship in the distance, and his heart was also mixed.

In the next half month, hundreds of believers set out, uprooted their homeland, carrying a mission to travel all over the world, to the time of no return, all with their most cherished treasures.

Violeta, Dari, Donat, Pavnudy. One by one, the names were recorded in the top secret archives of the church, except for them, only a few people such as Ma Wei knew the names of these believers, and even if they died, they could not be made public, and they could not even mourn with the honor of martyrs.

In February, not long after Goncharov and others left, it was still freezing cold, and the time for the first round of auditions was approaching.

Auditions are more like competitions, and auditions in the London area are held at suburban racecourses, where there are large lawns and tracks, and multiple auditions can be held at the same time.

"Which event are you competing in? Feed! Say about you! ”

A staff member with a hat saw Ma Wei and a few people hanging out in the middle of the field, and a little girl, he suddenly became angry, quickly stopped Ma Wei and the others, glanced at their empty chests, and asked, "Are you players?" I don't even have a number plate, how did I get in? ”

Levin and Daniel looked at each other and preemptively replied, "I signed up for weightlifting." ”

"I signed up for swimming." Daniel said.

After speaking, Levin and Daniel took out the number plate from their pockets and pinned it to their chests, and Ma Wei was stunned when he looked at it: "Where did you get the number plate?" ”

"Got it at the door!"

"Did you really sign up for the audition?!"

Ma Wei opened his mouth wide, and only he and Yunia dared to pretend to be players!

Levine and Daniel, the two boys, actually secretly signed up for themselves!

No wonder when they entered the door just now, they disappeared for a while under the pretext of going to the bathroom

"What about you?" The staff turned to look at Ma Wei: "What program did you sign up for?" ”

Ma Wei reached into his pocket, pinched a gold coin, turned it into a number plate, and took it out: "I'm a shooting player, isn't there a new shooting event in this Olympics?" ”

"Oh, your playing field isn't here, come with me." The staff pointed to the sign erected on the right side and said to Levine and Daniel: "Weightlifting is in the No. 3 area, swimming is in the No. 5 area, it is about to start, you hurry over, you. What is your name? ”

"Thomas." Ma Wei casually made up one.

"Just as I'm going over there, come with me!"

The staff turned around and walked towards the exit of the field, but there was no way, so Ma Wei had to make a split look at Levine and Daniel, and then took Yunia out of the racecourse and walked towards the competition field on the outskirts.

Shooting was added this year, the flintlock pistol used in the past was too backward, the accuracy was not high, and it could not become a regular competition, but this year, the Olympic Association was established, and the competition program was reformulated, and it was decided to add the ever-changing firearms to it, so shooting was added.

Originally, this was nothing, Ma Wei's marksmanship was good, although he was not killed by one shot in a hundred steps and eight hundred miles away, at least within thirty meters was quite accurate, and he could hit the target with a gun.

In terms of the current accuracy of the revolver, it still needs to be updated and iterated to meet the requirements of the Western Fast Gunner, and the distance is a little farther, and the bullet does not know where to fly.

It wasn't until the staff took Ma Wei farther and farther away and came to a forest that Ma Wei noticed that something was wrong.

The contestants standing around him, all dressed in deer hunting suits and armed with double-barreled shotguns, were either sharp-eyed old hunters or gentle gentlemen, neither of whom were good at stubble.

"Let me briefly talk about the rules, due to Pope Mavi's decision to hold a magical Olympic Games, this shooting event is not to shoot targets according to the score, but will imitate the form of a duel with another player to shoot live ammunition, the first to fall down will be judged to lose, if shot at the same time, according to the part of the shot"

The staff took a document and spittle: "10 points for hitting the head, 5 points for the upper torso, 3 points for the lower body, and 1 point for the limbs!" ”

"What if they all hit the head?" A gentleman with a cigarette in his mouth and wearing a red plaid vest asked.

"The selection adopts a three-game system, and the ranking is determined by the total score, and the highest score will be promoted together if the three consecutive games are tied!"

In order to select the players who will represent the country in the Olympic Games, the organizers have adopted a duel mode, but when it comes to the field, they will be teamed up to fight like football, and the total score will be calculated.

Perhaps to enrich the spectacle and tactics of the game, in the Olympic arena, each team has a stronghold, and the tournament ends whenever the flag falls or one side is out.

This is the only way to embody the mystery of magic, and how to use magic simply for target shooting?

Confrontation is what magic is all about.

"The venue is all covered by the realm of immortality, so you don't have to worry about death, just a little."

The staff smiled maliciously: "The pain of being hit by a bullet will not be reduced, in order to ensure fairness, it is forbidden to use shotguns and large-caliber projectiles!" Uniform use of competition-standard bullets! ”

Under the call of the staff, the gentlemen and hunters could only put down their shotguns and received a Dreiser's bolt-action rifle, which was once an army gun, but with the advent of the Edward I repeating rifle and the rotary tube machine gun, the Dreiser bolt-action rifle gradually withdrew from the stage of history and began to be replaced on a large scale.

Even so, the highly accurate Dreiser bolt-action rifle was no problem as a special selection gun.

The live-fire confrontation was something Ma Wei could never have imagined, and one of his orders would evolve into this kind of competition mode, a group duel, and the fight was marksmanship and reaction

The opponent is either an old hunter or a high-class person who hunts a lot, and he has been out of battle for a long time

It's not right

"Huh?"

The staff member who was looking through the registration form looked up: "Thomas, why didn't I find your name?" What is your number? ”

"Forget."

"It's okay, anyway, this is the first audition, anyone can sign up, it should be a mistake over there, I'll add your name to you, don't be so reckless next time."

The corners of his mouth twitched, and Ma Wei really thanked him.

If I knew it was a live-fire confrontation, he would never come!

There are a total of 6 players in this group, three games, and the ranking is determined by the total score, and the loser can play a rematch with the other losers the next day, and the score can still be promoted.

Ma Wei doesn't know whether this selection method is fair, but the Olympics need the best group of athletes, and the others are just running together.

And the real strong is to stand out and be born.

The staff looked at the pocket watch and said, "Okay, all the players are in!" There is a red rope blocking the border, and the judgment is lost when you go out of bounds! If you are shot, lie down consciously and don't make any small moves, otherwise you will be judged to lose! Now all the players are in the field! ”

Ma Wei received a Dreiser bolt-action rifle and ten rounds of ammunition, with a slightly ugly face on his back and a gun, and walked into the field, Yunia was very excited, and shouted eagerly behind her: "Come on, Dad!" Down with them! ”

As the only player with a cheerleading team, Ma Wei was lucky to gain the attention of other opponents, which is not good news, according to Ma Wei's observation just now, there are at least four masters among the other five players.

Think about it, what is London? A city with a population of millions! Who dares to sign up in this division without two brushes?

What caught Ma Wei's attention the most was a sturdy old man with gray hair and a bearskin jacket, a pair of deerskin boots stained with some mud, one eye was gray, obviously blind, limping when he walked, and seemed to have old wounds, just standing there without moving, he exuded a terrifying aura.

I am afraid that thousands of creatures died under his gun.

Another threatening-looking man was a middle-aged man with a gentleman's beard and a deer-hunting cap, whom Ma Wei had met, Fischer Priest, the vice president of the London Shotgun Society.

Beneath his gentle exterior lies a hunter's heart, and it is said that he has won the national hunting championship for three consecutive years, and the prey he has set his sights on has never escaped.

The remaining three, two of whom were also members of the Shotgun Society, knew Fischer, and talked and laughed at each other, only one of whom had a cigarette in his mouth, and seemed to be calm and light-hearted, and did not pay attention to the others at all.

The demon spirit wooden box that was faintly beating in his arms had already given a hint.

The man smoking in front of him is not human!

Ma Wei did not ban supernatural creatures from participating in the competition, which sounded very unfair, as if humans were inherently weaker than these supernatural creatures, and they could only be beaten passively in front of them

Is that really the case?

If so, how was humanity able to build its own era?

Ma Wei always believes that even in the face of extraordinary creatures, human beings have the power to fight!

The forest was covered with snow and leaves, and there were not many places to hide within a kilometer, so as soon as they entered the field, the players immediately dispersed and looked for cover.

Finding cover is also a science, and if you choose a bad position, you will become the target of public criticism, no matter how good you are, you will lose if you are attacked from both sides, Ma Wei, who knows this well, quickly ran to the edge of the field, hid behind a hillside, and was loading bullets, when he suddenly heard a cat meow overhead.

Raising his head, a fat cat was lying on the trunk of a tree overhead, looking at him intently.

Originally

It's them that prevent cheating!

Smiling, Mavi pulled the bolt and loaded it, and just then, the gunshots rang out at the start of the game.
