Chapter 26: The Waiter (6K Chapter, 3-in-1 Plus Update!) )
Enough to upend the victory of the war......... Golier's words, like a hammer, knocked everyone present unconscious.
For a while, the entire hall fell silent, and after a moment's leaning, the high shadow above spoke: "Calamity, what's going on?" ”
Goliath immediately spoke, and reported what she had seen and heard to Gao Gao Ying.
Not only the high-level shadows on the main seat, but also the nearby envoys, all heard her story, especially about Su Shi's special ability to master the 'memory', sweeping away the books in the secret library at a glance, and reciting them all.
Each messenger was unconscious, and his breath was a little shorter.
As masters of steam, they know nothing more than what an amazing advantage a person with a terrifying memory has in this field of knowledge and research!
If a large number of researchers similar to him are born in batches, then the new gospel will be able to completely throw off the alliance of blacksmiths in terms of war equipment, including the steam armor they imagined, and it may not be impossible to create!
In their perception, Su Shi is also an infecter who has absorbed the power of 'primordial iron', and belongs to the same direction as the sound envoy/black craftsman. But the difference is that Su Shi is more supportive than them, not good at fighting, but has more outstanding creation abilities!
Golier was right, this was an important figure who influenced the entire war situation.
After listening to the narration, without waiting for others to speak, the highest-ranking figure, that is, the speaker of the chief group, the supreme leader of the new gospel, Fross, said solemnly: "Golier, where is that young man at present?" Is there a guarantee of his safety? ”
"Su, he's outside the council hall, and I'll keep him safe."
Gollier replied.
"From now on, Golier, you will be Sue's close attendant and keep him safe at all times."
Fross's tone was unmistakable, her gaze scanned the audience, and finally stopped on Golill's body, and in an almost commanding manner, she added: "At the very least, we need to figure out from him what kind of ritual content is the third promotion path that is different from the Emissary and the Blacksmith?"
Since he himself doesn't know, let's observe him, guess the reason from him, and deduce the content of the ritual step by step. ”
"If there is a dangerous situation, everything is given the highest priority to the safety of the Su, and if necessary........."
"Even if you are sacrificed, you must ensure Sue's safety!"
In the face of Frost's command, Goliath did not hesitate, after all, her life is given by the organization, and every orphan in a mining disaster regards the new gospel as her home and life faith, and she can give her life for the new gospel.
Frost didn't think there was a problem either, the top five chief councillors, second only to her powerful voices, were indeed precious, and each of them was an important treasure of the new gospel.
But in comparison, Sue's value is far greater than that of Golill and the other envoys in the chief meeting, and in terms of value alone, I am afraid that he can be compared to the first messenger who founded the organization in the first place, and found the founder who played the role of a 'tool'.
Two hundred years ago, the New Gospel had existed as an organization, and had been dormant until now, and when the time was ripe, they came to prominence and formed a rivalry with the Black Smith Alliance, but this situation temporarily became a stalemate in the battle in the Isis Mountains.
Sue was the key point in breaking the deadlock, and in light of this, Fross paid great attention to him.
If it weren't for the fact that she was still needed at the front, Frost would have wanted to come back in person to keep the young man safe.
"Not only Golier, but the other people here should also help Sue as much as possible." Frost did not forget to command.
Everyone in the chief meeting had no objection to Fros's order, even the manly shadow with a heavy sword on his back only opened his mouth when he heard Golier's reply. In the end, without saying anything, he sighed softly, and agreed with Fross in silence to do his best for the sake of that 'Sue'.
After discussing important matters, everyone took advantage of the time to exchange information about the war.
The front line is quite optimistic, but for some reason, the Black Smith Alliance has always maintained a defensive posture, and their attention seems to be focused elsewhere. This point is somewhat like the period before the outbreak of the new gospel, when the Black Gold City was always lax and negligent in guarding, which gave them an opportunity.
"By the way, we are lurking in the other two steam city-states, and the informant who delivered the message came not long ago, and it is said that the Blacksmith League has organized a large number of men, and the strong men who have retired from the front line of the war have gone to the depths of their mines..........," Fross reminded the group.
After saying that, she terminated the topic, anyway, it was an exchange of information, and the current war was deadlocked, and there was no need to discuss countermeasures.
At this end of the meeting, in the final stage, Frost turned her head again and looked at Goliath, who was the only one of the top five chief envoys left in Gospel City. The three chief emissaries, including himself, are on the front lines of the war, and the remaining one is responsible for patrolling other gathering points outside of the gospel city and maintaining their connection with the main city.
"Because of the news delivered to me, the aforementioned informant has been killed.........." Fross said with a look of regret, "Next, we must purge the city of hostile forces and prepare for future wars, and in particular, ensure that Sue's news is not leaked." ”
Goliath understood what the Speaker meant, which was to prepare for a cleansing of the interior and a purge of the gospel city.
Of course, all this is due to the appearance of 'Sue', and ensuring that his news is not leaked is the top priority.
"Understood, I'll arrange it."
Goliath agreed to come down and put an end to the meeting, when the shadows on the long red table disappeared one by one.
Finally, the man with the heavy sword had not yet left the line, and he hesitated for a moment, and was about to speak to Golier, but saw that the other man had already gotten up and went straight to the door, as if he was anxious to see another person.
"I ........"
The words stuck in his throat, and the heavy sword man was like a frosted eggplant, wilting as he watched the other party leave, and the door closed again.
The aura shadow of this heavy sword man could only silently choose to disperse.
....................
"Sue, I will be responsible for your safety in the future, and I will be your close attendant."
After coming out of the council hall, Golier announced to Su Shi in a tone that could not be refused.
At the same time, she returned the piece of raw iron she got on her body to Su Shi, and did not forget to explain: "There seems to be a lot of power left on this piece of raw iron, you can continue to take it with you, although the ceremony is completed, you don't know the content." It just so happens that you take this piece of raw iron and explore the follow-up path little by little, and you can also provide us with information to see if there is a way to summarize your promotion ceremony. ”
Finally, she didn't forget to add one point:
"Because I still have some public office on me, I can only trouble you to follow me and deal with things together."
For most of the next day, the black-helmeted guards patrolling the gospel area saw an amazing scene.
On weekdays, Lord Golier, who was high up, was followed by a young man. No, to be precise, it should be Golier who took the initiative to follow the other party's side, which was quite a bit of a personal guard.
Throughout the process, Su Shi discovered a lot of news, such as the organizational structure of the New Gospel, and the internal situation of the Black Gold City (Gospel City), although there were no trigger conditions, which made the main score rise again, but it also helped his follow-up.
Until nightfall, Golier was in the study to deal with information, Su Shi was bored, looking out the window in a daze, his main line time still has more than fifty hours left, must complete the second ring, hunt three underground moles in the city.
Otherwise, Su Shi's main quest will be judged to be a failure, which will seriously affect the world plot.
However, in the afternoon, Goliath had the envoys of the Intelligence Department to go out en masse and start searching for the lurking informants in the city.
As the headquarters of the new gospel, Gospel City naturally has a large number of people in the city, and the envoys of the Ministry of Intelligence alone have at least double digits, and when the speaker goes to the front, they are all at the disposal of Golier.
As the Warden, Goliath has the highest authority to mobilize any department in the Gospel City.
"Mr. Su, having said that, in the process of fleeing and pursuing, did you have any special behavior, well, I mean, it is easier to distinguish from ordinary people?" Golill didn't know if she was worried about him being bored or if she wanted to gather information, but she asked Su Shi in front of the window while she was working on the papers in her hand.
"No, so I'm confused." Su Shi decisively vetoed, just kidding, he is an 'impostor' at all, at least not the essence of the 'craftsman' direction, how can he say the correct content?
Naturally, he quickly denied it, lest the other party notice the abnormality.
In addition, Su Shi knew his identity, and as time passed, it would definitely become more and more dangerous.
Don't look at the new gospel's treatment of him now, almost as a guest, it is because they have misled themselves and have a great misunderstanding, thinking that Su Shi is the third way to promote the original iron, which is different from the system of sound envoys and black craftsmen.......... But in fact, the third way to promotion does not exist at all, everything is deceitful.
The longer the contact between the two sides and the more information they gather, the greater the probability of Su Shi being exposed.
Since this special shortcut has been chosen, it is only natural that Su Shi will also take its risks.
Once exposed again, Su Shi could imagine that the blonde girl in front of him, who was polite to him, would definitely go crazy with anger, shame and indignation, and then chase him to the ends of the earth, just like last time.
In order to avoid that embarrassing scene, and for the sake of the other party's body and mind, Su Shi decided to complete the return of the main line as soon as possible while it was not exposed, which was a thoughtful move he could do for the new gospel.
Suose trusted that Goliath would forgive him........... Probably?
Just as he was silently complaining, suddenly, there was a knock on the door of the study.
"Please come in."
Gerille didn't lift her head, and continued to correct the papers.
As the door opened, a young envoy in a black and red uniform stood at the door, bowed to Golier in the study, and reported: "Lord Golier, the night crows of the Intelligence Department have been dispatched collectively and have collected several clues, which point to several mine owners or high-ranking gentlemen in the city, which may be informants planted in the city by the Black Craftsman Alliance, and the information is here. ”
"Show me." Su Shi took the initiative to step forward, not thinking of himself as an outsider at all.
"This .........." The young envoy hesitated for a moment, turned his head to look at the blonde girl in front of the desk, and the next moment, he heard Golier's order, and his tone was unrefusable: "The information is all to Mr. Su, from now on, he is also a member of the chief council, this is an order confirmed by the speaker himself, do you understand?" Also, inform the rest of the Intelligence Department about this matter. ”
"Yes........ I understand. ”
The young envoy's eyelids twitched, and he almost doubted his ears, but looking at Golier's serious posture, he didn't have the courage to refute after all, and could only watch Su Shi take this confidential information from his own hands.
[Hint: You have obtained important information, the main story content has been updated, and the target has been locked.] 】
Su Shi heard the reminder in his ear, checked the main panel, and sure enough, the content on it had been updated to:
【Black Gold City: War Hound】
Difficulty level: Lv.6
Quest content: Find the underground moles lurking in the Black Gold City (Gospel City), hunt them, prevent them from continuing to deliver important news to the Black Craftsman Alliance, and hunt the number of targets (3/3).
Targets locked (3/3): Eastern Mine Owner Cini, Viscount Stanley, Black Market Leader Sisi.
Remaining period: 58 hours.
Seeing the information on the main line, Su Shi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, sure enough, his adventure choice was very correct, although the people who deceived the new gospel had to face the backlash of the other party after knowing the truth, but before that, the new gospel was of great help to his main line.
Under normal circumstances, if he wants to get this list, he must join the new gospel and then complete the other party's assessment, such as the way Goriel mentioned bringing water to wash her feet, or the war meritorious service under the normal way, and so on. This series of quests is very long, and it will also delay his main line time, and in the end, it is easy to run out of time, resulting in the failure of the main story.
Now, as the 'hope' of the new gospel, he has obtained classified information at once, saving a lot of front-loading.
There are still more than fifty hours, and there is plenty of time left for the main line, and Su Shi uses his own advantages to greatly reduce the difficulty of the task.
Next, it's his participation in the plot.
"Mr. Su, is there a problem with the content of the intelligence? If not, let the Night Ravens carry it out. Goliath didn't raise her head, and continued to correct the documents, fully reflecting Su Shi's trust.......... No, to be precise, it was an act of 'trust' to buy his hearts and minds, so that Su Shi had a greater sense of belonging to the new gospel.
The young envoy who listened to the order widened his eyes, and the actions of his boss once again refreshed his cognition.
This....... Does this 'Mr. Su' already have such a status in Lord Golier's heart? As the head of the intelligence department, he has more contact than other voice envoys, and knows better how cold and arrogant Golier's personality is, so that his immediate boss can make this gesture, so considerate, and take the initiative to compromise........... It was something he could never have dreamed of.
But the next scene completely shattered his worldview.
"The intelligence seems to be fine.......... Su Shi changed his words and stated, "However, I am ready to join the operation, since I am also a part of the new gospel, it is also my duty to arrest the underground moles. ”
"No way!"
Goliath suddenly raised her head, she didn't even care about the documents in her hand, she said without thinking: "Your safety is absolutely important, you are not allowed to join this kind of mission, let me stay in the gospel area and protect you closely, this is the first priority that the speaker told me." ”
The tasks commanded by the Speaker.......... The young voice envoy who stayed at the door, his expression became more and more numb, because the amount of information was too large, his brain could no longer understand, and he simply gave up the treatment completely.
In short, he was going back to the Ministry of Intelligence and telling his colleagues........... This is an incomparably amazing insider.
"You!"
Golier's face was anxious, but looking at Su Shi's firm expression, he couldn't help sighing, and turned his head to the door:
"I see, the standby outside the door, you go down first."
"Next, I want to have a private chat with Mr. Su."
"Yes........." The young voice made his face numb, and silently closed the door, there was no doubt that what happened tonight had a great impact on him, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to sleep at night. For the sake of fairness, he decided to inform his colleagues about this matter, so that they could also enjoy the experience of being sleepless at night.
There were only two people left in the study,
Golill stared at Su Shi quietly, in her turquoise eyes, the figure of the young man by the window was reflected, and she had been seeing that Su Shi was a little hairy, and she didn't understand what she was going to do by leaving her alone?
"Hey, I see........."
Goliath sighed faintly, her face showing helplessness.
You....... What do you understand? Su Shi was shocked, almost thinking that he was exposed, but after thinking about it, in just a few hours, the new gospel should not be so quickly noticed.
What's more, there is only so much information that Goliath has in contact with herself, and with the other party's brain, it is impossible to see the flaws in reasoning......... Su Shi silently sneered, and the next moment, he heard Golier's sigh:
"Mr. Su, you must still hold a grudge against me, right?"
..........? Su Shi's face was full of question marks, not understanding what the other party 'understood', and when he looked up, he happened to meet Golier's gaze. But I saw that under the moonlight, the blonde girl was ashamed, her expression was full of memories, and the pure white moonlight fell on the white skin of Shengxue, just like the scene when the two met for the first time:
"I understand, three months ago, you were chased and killed by me like that, and you must not feel comfortable in your heart........."
"Although I have a duty to do, these are not reasons, indeed, I was a little heavy in the back, and I almost killed you."
"You have a grudge against it and don't want to accept protection.......... In particular, my protection makes you feel uncomfortable, and I can understand this kind of experience.......... After all, no one wants to face an enemy every day, right? ”
As she spoke, Goliath took a deep breath and closed her eyes, as if she had made a decision.
In the next second, on her two arms, the iron locks wrapped around her were like spiritual snakes, breaking away step by step, and in her control, they landed right in front of Su Shi, and at this moment, she completely unarmed.
"At the beginning, I injured your shoulder to repay you, and you should punish me with iron locks."
"I promise I won't fight back."
"If my body is injured and bleeding, it can relieve the hatred in your heart, and I can accept this price........."
After speaking, Golier closed her eyes and said in a deep voice: "Of course, after you are done venting your hatred, you must accept my protection, this is the only requirement of the new gospel for you, I hope you can understand." ”
"August is still in the outer territory, patrolling the various gathering points, and here is the only councillor who is qualified to protect you, and I am the only one."
After explaining, Goliath remained on her feet, quietly waiting for the punishment to come.
With her vitality, even if she is injured in the concept of ordinary people, she can recover quickly, and it will not affect her protection target.
For the sake of the future of the new gospel, Goliath endured physical pain, and she was willing.
Hiss......... Girl, your brain replenishment ability is so powerful! Su Shi's eyelids twitched, and he never expected that in order to complete the main story, he was interpreted by Goliath as 'holding a grudge'.
Indeed, from Golill's point of view, his behavior is somewhat 'non-violent and uncooperative', but the truth is not what the girl imagined, all this is actually a means for Su Shi to complete the main line.
"I see."
Su Shi sighed, picked up the iron lock, and approached the blonde girl in the moonlight.
The two sides were close, and for the first time, Su Shi looked at Golier carefully at such a close distance, and after looking at her carefully, he found that her appearance was more handsome than in his impression, with typical Euro style facial features, a straight nose, thin cherry lips, and a light white complexion with long pale gold and yellow hair, like a sculptor's best masterpiece.
Maybe it's the toughness of her usual style that makes people ignore Goriel's age, but at this moment, when she closed her eyes and stood quietly, Su Shicai was surprised to realize that Goril was younger than she imagined, with some childishness.
I'm afraid that the other party is younger than his age, maybe it's the peach and plum years old, seventeen or eighteen years old.
Wow!
The sound of iron chains sounded, and Golier subconsciously tightened her body, ready to meet the pain, but the next second, she felt a chill on her neck, opened her eyes, and found that Su Shi was holding an iron lock and gently hanging it around her neck.
Facing a look full of doubts, Su Shi smiled, pointed at her, and said, "I think the best way to punish is for you to protect my safety, so be it, I will still participate in the operation, but you have to protect my personal safety." ”
"Report and report, how you hurt me before, now, you have to protect my body..........."
"Can you accept this kind of punishment?"
Goliath was slightly stunned, and couldn't help lowering her head, her expression was hidden in the moonlight, and her body trembled slightly, making it difficult to figure out.
A few seconds later, some faint voices rang out, as thin as mosquitoes:
"Thank you....... Thank you. ”
...........................
Gospel City, East End.
"Mr. Su, this operation is under your command, but if you have any questions, you can consult us........." The Night Raven Captain of the Intelligence Department looked at the handsome young man in front of him, and his tone was very helpless.
As the small leader of the intelligence department, he can be regarded as having some right to speak, but unfortunately, tonight's hunting operation, I don't know what wind was pumped from above, and a new person was actually arranged to come in, and it was Lord Greer's personal order.
Because of this hand-made edict, not only him, but also the other messengers in the group, had to obey Su Shi's orders.
Since there are three suspected targets, the Night Ravens have been dispatched en masse.
The so-called Night Ravens are the envoys in charge of intelligence, as well as the elites under them.
The latter is not as powerful as the Sound Messenger, but it can also help in team battles.
Su Shi is in charge of the command of this night crow squad, because it is divided into three ways, he can only choose one object, but it is not a big problem, as long as Su Shi participates in the hunting operation, all three targets are eliminated, and it is counted as his completion of the main line.
However, Su Shi's contribution in the operation will affect his main line score, which is not difficult to guess from the style of acting in the twilight space.
After weighing the pros and cons, Schuser chose what should be the most difficult target on the surface - the East Side miner, Cini.
This goal was chosen not only with the idea that the more difficult it is, the higher the reward, but most importantly, .......... Even if it can't be solved, someone will wipe his ass.
Su Shi looked outside, at this moment, the streets of the East End were shrouded in night, quiet, but he knew that there was still a sight in the darkness, which must be watching him, this was Su Shi's biggest hole card.
What hole card can be more reassuring than the covert protection of a chief councilor?
