Chapter Thirty-Five: Deception (Hush for Simon, the leader of the Alliance!) )
Prior to this, Lu Ming only thought that the so-called "divine revelation" and the so-called inheritance of the sect leader were just a means for the sect leader of the fate organization to strengthen his divine power and authority and strengthen the faith of believers, and he did not think that it really existed.
But now, first, there is really nothing to break through in the rest of the front. Second, after this series of tests, it was confirmed that the sarcophagus indeed had some kind of "supernatural power" that could not yet be explained.
In this case, the so-called divine revelation is a little more credible. I can't say it, so I can only try to see if I can break through from here.
The eyes of several people looked at Zhang Dingshan together. Zhang Dingshan thought silently for a moment, and finally agreed to this proposal.
"Then give it a try."
This plan was decided, and the Holy Goddess of the Destiny Organization, as well as the former Destiny Organization high-ranking who played the role of beneficiary, were summoned again.
Needless to say, the Holy Goddess is proficient in all kinds of rituals in the Destiny Organization, and at this moment, she needs to preside over the ritual of making people become the leader of the Destiny Organization, in order to obtain the "Divine Revelation", so as to know the secret of the God of Destiny.
Sure enough, after hearing Zhang Dingshan's request, the Holy Goddess immediately agreed, and her face was full of joy.
This is another hard-won opportunity for her to make meritorious contributions.
Now she, not even her, but also all the captured members of the Destiny Organization, almost everyone does not lack the desire and desire to make meritorious contributions. All they lacked was an opportunity.
Who would be willing to eat peanuts after being judged? Don't want to die and want to live? What other way can there be other than receiving awards for meritorious service?
Even if you make meritorious contributions, you may not be able to avoid the fate of eating peanuts, after all, the sins committed by the Destiny Organization are too heavy. But, after all, it's a thought. What's more, his role in this should not be so great, and he should not be regarded as the main culprit, right?
Now there is only so much opportunity for meritorious service. This hard-won opportunity fell on him, how could he not make this goddess excited?
After the Holy Goddess, there was the former high-ranking member of the Destiny Organization.
Zhang Dingshan also directly stated his intentions.
"Successive leaders of the Destiny Organization have received divine revelation during the succession ceremony, so as to grasp a great secret about the god of destiny. You know that. But now, the previous leader has committed suicide in fear of sin. We want you to be the leader of this sect, know the secret, and tell us. ”
This matter, compared to the Holy Goddess who is just presiding over the ceremony, is undoubtedly a little more risky. The reason is very simple, the last sect leader who knew this secret died, and on the surface, he committed suicide in fear of sin, who knows the real reason?
Maybe the real reason is that the god of fate that exists in the underworld killed him in order to keep it a secret?
Maybe after he succeeds as the leader of the Destiny Organization, he will also suffer this fate, and thus die in an unknown way?
Zhang Dingshan had no intention of hiding these things from him. The choice is up to him.
The attitude of the Action 2 team is indifferent. There are so many heinous criminals waiting in line to eat peanuts, and I am not afraid that no one will stand up and grab this opportunity to make meritorious contributions.
"It's all up to you. Now, tell me your answer. ”
The former high-ranking member of the Destiny Organization gritted his teeth, and his face continued to shake.
"I agree to succeed as the Sect Master! But I have one condition. You have to promise me that if I don't die, then in the end I can't be sentenced to death, and I will be spared! Even if it's indefinite! ”
He Wei slapped the table and shouted: "You are not qualified to make conditions with us!" Take! Replace the next one! ”
The high-ranking man panicked instantly, and without waiting for the guards to control him, he shouted at the top of his voice: "Don't don't, don't mention the conditions, don't mention the conditions!" ”
He Wei snorted and waved her hand at the guard. So the two guards retreated again.
Zhang Dingshan said slowly: "One yard is one yard." In this operation, we will report to the judicial organ a second-class meritorious service. As for whether the adjudication organs will reduce your original punishment because of this second-class meritorious service, that is beyond our control. ”
"I understand, I understand. It's good to have a second-class meritorious service. ”
He nodded again and again, not daring to mention any more conditions.
The matter was finalized, and after a period of preliminary preparations, in the sanctuary of the Destiny Organization, in this hall where the smell of cow and sheep dung still remained, another sacrifice began.
According to the Holy Goddess, the succession ceremony of the new head of the sect is similar to the ritual of sacrificing a pregnant woman or a pregnant animal. In the early stage, they were fasting and bathing, burning incense and praying, and then receiving moonlight, writing six-pointed stars and sacrifices on their bodies, and some people reciting sacrifices, and then dancing and so on.
The process is pretty much the same. The only difference is that to sacrifice a pregnant woman or a pregnant animal, the sacrifice needs to be unconscious, and it is a woman or a female beast, and it needs to be pregnant. The new leader needs to be sober and male.
Other than that, there is no difference.
There is only such a small difference, one is a sacrifice, the other is a sect leader, and the fate is very different.
This caused Lu Ming to think a little.
Maybe...... Can this be seen as a different mode of work of the sarcophagus "machine"? Just like a noodle machine, put in white noodles, and what comes out is white noodles, and when you put in miscellaneous noodles, what comes out is miscellaneous noodles?
But there is too little information at the moment to draw a clearer conclusion. Lu Ming thought for a moment, then temporarily put down this idea.

Guarded by dozens of armed guards, the ceremony of succession of the new head of the church began again in the sanctuary without any shrinkage. The Holy Goddess danced a mad spirit dance in front of the sarcophagus, and after a series of procedures, the former high-ranking member of the Destiny Organization knelt reverently in front of the sarcophagus, and next to him, another member of the Destiny Organization was drawn in, and solemnly recited the incantation here.
Lu Ming, Zhang Dingshan, and He Wei stood beside them, staring closely at the high-level who was about to become the sect leader. In the hall, there are even more cameras watching him closely.
Time passed quietly. Gradually, the Holy Goddess, who was dancing wildly, stopped tapping on the ground. The senior who recited the incantation announced in a loud voice: "Finish! Rise! ”
The ceremony is over. And, according to the scriptures of the Destiny Organization, at this moment, the new sect leader should have received the divine revelation, and should announce this matter to the believers, so as to strengthen his divine authority.
At this moment, the senior member of the original destiny organization, who had been kneeling on the ground before, and was slowly getting up at this moment, seemed to be a little dazed. He subconsciously glanced at the goddess and the reciter of the sacrificial text, and after confirming that the ceremony was over, he looked at Lu Ming and the others.
"How? Is there any divine revelation? ”
"Nope. I didn't feel anything. ”
He shook his head, a thoughtful, confused, dazed look on his face. It seemed that he himself was surprised by this, or maybe he couldn't believe that the previous sect leader was actually deceiving himself at the succession ceremony.
Zhang Dingshan's brows furrowed slightly, and two sharp eyes like eagles stared at his face tightly. He Wei sighed, obviously disappointed. Lu Ming looked solemn and was also thinking quickly.
The so-called divine revelation is very unreliable no matter how you look at it...... It's a lot of thinking that we're trying to find clues from this aspect. This is really just a lie by the leaders to strengthen their authority......
After a long time, Zhang Dingshan suddenly raised his voice.
"You're lying! You must know something! Say! ”
Like a thunderclap on the ground, in the silent and silent hall, Zhang Dingshan's voice made the atmosphere here instantly solemn. The guards even subconsciously clenched the guns in their hands.
"What did the captain find? Is this guy lying to us? ”
A few thoughts flashed through Lu Ming's mind in an instant. Looking at the high-ranking member of the Destiny Organization again, his eyes were full of horror at this moment. He shook his body desperately, and in a hurry, he broke free from the two guards guarding him, and with a wrong step, he ran towards the stone wall next to him with a speed and agility that was not commensurate with his body.
On the way, his upper body was already leaning forward, as if wishing his head could touch the hard wall as soon as possible. At the same time, his hands were still cuffed behind his back, as if he were holding them backwards, which looked a little funny.
With his speed and strength at the moment, there was no doubt that once his head hit the stone wall, it would immediately splash out like a watermelon falling to the ground.
Lu Ming was shocked, but he didn't have time to react at all. saw He Wei touch the pistol from his waist in an instant, and he didn't even aim at it, so he shot him directly.
With a thud, the shot accurately hit the Destiny Order's high-ranking member in the calf, causing him to fall to the ground in an instant. The next moment, he arched his body and raised his head strongly. saw He Wei rush in front of him in a few steps, bent down, and grabbed his hair.
The next moment, his head slammed down, but he was grabbed by his hair. He Wei's arms were like steel, and he didn't move at all. However, some of the handfuls of hair were pulled down directly, and blood began to ooze out of the scalp.
This time, the members of the Destiny Organization finally did not die in front of He Wei again.
Two other guards rushed over at the moment. One person controlled him, and the other directly shoved his gloved hand into his mouth to prevent suicide by biting his tongue.
After that, he was forced to his feet. But even under the forcible control of the two strong guards, he continued to struggle, constantly writhing his body, and his expression was hideously twisted.
"Take it away!"
He was taken directly by force. The two guards were on guard on the way, and they never gave him a chance to commit suicide.
It was only when he got to the cell that the Destiny Organization leader had probably regained his composure.
He Wei stepped forward and looked at him coldly.
"In front of me, you can't die if you want to. Partnering with us is your only way out, you know? ”
He nodded with difficulty.
He Wei gestured, and the guard slowly took his hand out of his mouth.
Lu Ming saw that there were two more rows of tooth marks on the gloves. If he hadn't been wearing gloves, the guard's fingers would have been bitten off. This shows how hard he worked.
If such a huge force bites the tongue, I am afraid that the tongue will be bitten off in an instant. Then a large amount of blood gushed out, which would clog his trachea and suffocate him. Without the appropriate first aid equipment, he would have died in a matter of minutes.
"Tell me, what revelation did you receive?"
"I ......"
The high-ranking member of the Destiny Organization trembled and said the word "I" with difficulty, as if he was about to begin to explain. But at this moment, taking advantage of the opportunity to say the word "I" and open his mouth, he reluctantly closed his mouth at a speed so fast that people could barely react.
It turns out that everything before was just paralyzing us! His real purpose is still to commit suicide!
His upper and lower rows of teeth snapped together, and the next moment, half of his tongue fell directly to the ground. He had a lot of blood gushing out of his mouth, a gurgling in his throat, trembling all over, and his eyes rolling.
Lu Ming instantly turned his head to look at He Wei. saw that He Wei was still not moving at this moment, just looking at him coldly.
He Wei must have had time to react. Lu Ming is very clear about this. Indeed, just like He Wei said, in front of her, if she doesn't want to commit suicide alone, then that person can't die even if she wants to!
But now, He Wei didn't stop it. Even, he had already bit his tongue off, and He Wei just looked at it coldly.
The two guards didn't move, they just forced him to keep him standing.
After more than ten seconds, He Wei beckoned. Lu Ming looked at it, only to see that there were a few more doctors carrying various instruments there.
The doctors rushed over and began to give first aid. Ten minutes later, the Destiny Organization executive passed out, but his breathing remained steady, apparently not life-threatening.
He was placed in a hospital bed normally reserved for manic psychoses, and his body was tightly restrained with restraint straps.
A few hours later, he woke up again.
Zhang Dingshan came to his hospital bed and looked at him condescendingly.
"If you think about it, blink your eyes."
His eyes were wide open, and he never blinked.
Zhang Dingshan shook his head: "On the elixir, cooperate with the hypnotist, and let him write everything he knows." ”
At this moment, Zhang Dingshan had given up his plan to pry information out of his mouth through conventional interrogation methods.
Faced with a prisoner who tried to commit suicide at every opportunity, a normal interrogation simply could not take place.
"Yes."
The power of potions is not something that can be countered by the human spiritual will. As long as the high-level of the Destiny Organization in front of him was still a human body, he would definitely not be able to resist.
Various potions were gradually injected into his body. Hypnotists to cooperate with the interrogation are also in place. Lu Ming, Zhang Dingshan, and He Wei were ready to fight.
Lu Ming saw him gritting his teeth and saw that his face was full of hideousness. But after a while, his body loosened, and he closed his eyes and did not react.
