The Storm Rises Chapter 123 The Price of Betrayal
"Give up the attack and evacuate quickly!"
"No matter, cut the ropes, evacuate here as soon as possible and join the people below!"
The members of Spider Web still show very good psychological quality and action ability at this moment, it cannot be said how strong cohesion and team spirit they are, it is just an instinct obtained in a long life of outlaws.
Quickly cutting the fixed rope hanging from the surface of the alchemy workshop's tower, the members of these cobwebs chose to abandon Wang Yu as enemies, and quickly fell to join the cobweb members below.
Wang Yu is a tough guy, and they can also see that it is not cost-effective to put their own lives into it for the benefit of hunting Wang Yu.
Some of the cobweb members choose to use their physical fitness to resist the damage caused by the fall, some of them are caught by the cobweb members below who are too busy to take care of themselves, and a few of them are flickering with magical brilliance, and the feather fall technique is used when they are near the bottom.
Wang Yu looked at the group of cobwebs members who quickly fled, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he quickly used the Book of Weavers again, and the very few spells used by a mage were cast by Wang Yu.
The earth element covered Wang Yu's legs, and then began to vibrate with more and more power and frequency as it continued to increase under the influence of the magic.
Removing the invisible pedal under his feet, Wang Yu stepped on the earth elemental aggregate that was getting heavier and heavier, and the vibration amplitude was getting bigger and bigger, and smashed directly down from the middle of the tower, the second-order spell "Concussion Invasion!" ”
The function of this technique is to attach a concussive rock to the staff and then strike the enemy to bring impact and interference, but due to the mage's own weak physical fitness, the power of this technique is extremely limited.
However, Wang Yu's physical fitness greatly increased the power of this spell to a new height, and he did not choose an artifact to carry this spell, but used his own body.
"Boom!" As soon as the cobweb member turned around and was about to retreat, Wang Yu reached the ground in the next moment, and he and the heavy vibrating earth elemental polymer slammed into the exposed ground that had been destroyed by the vines summoned by Holo, and the relatively soft ground also made Wang Yu easily unload most of his strength.
Then the shock and the earth element began to spread exaggeratedly under Wang Yu's feet, and the surface of the earth vibrated rapidly with the shock of the earth element, and the ground in the entire area began to shake.
The ground on the soles of his feet shook wildly, and it was impossible to find the point where the force was applied, and the members of the cobwebs tried to escape, but it was completely difficult to do so.
The constant fluttering of debris of dirt and the undulating surface rocks made it difficult for these guys to even stand on their feet, let alone running.
And this is just the first link of Wang Yu's killing move, the spiritual power quickly hooked the Book of Weavers, this time it was not a simple spell, but opened a function reserved by Avia, overload.
In a short period of time, a large amount of energy is consumed to enhance the effect of the next spell, and the efficiency is very low, basically consuming fifty percent of all the energy to increase the effect of a second-order spell to twice the effect, and the third-order spell can only be strengthened by fifty percent at most.
The energy of the magic crystal was injected into the model of the next spell by a brain, and the excessive energy injection made the entire book of weavers emit a faint light and heat, and then, Wang Yu pierced his arm into the ground, and a strengthened second-order spell burst outward with him as the center, Rolling Stone Spirit!
The earth and stones under his feet quickly hardened and gathered under the influence of the earth element, and the saw blades composed of hard earth and stones swirled on the ground and spread out in all directions.
Half of the saw blade buried in the dirt was strengthened, and its speed and size increased greatly, and it spun on the shaking ground and rushed towards the members of the cobwebs.
The frightened members of the spider web burst out of their strength, desperately trying to get out of the volatile and difficult area.
However, their efforts were in vain, as the growing vines were not limited by these vibrations, and the stout vines that emerged from the reverberating earth shattered the last chance of escape, and the sudden vines bound the legs and feet of the webweb members, who were themselves unable to move.
The earth-stone saw wheels that spun wildly on the ground began their harvest of life, and these bound fellows with the highest physical fitness were no more than mid-level apprentice knights, and they were as fragile as tofu when they were sliced by the whirling saw blades.
Flesh splattered, flesh crushed by wildly swirling sawtooth, and then the corpse was buried beneath the shaking earth along with the splattered stumps and severed arms.
When all the rock blades created by the Rolling Stone Spirit spell disappeared from the earth, the only proof that the web members had existed was the red-stained ground in this area.
All the cobweb members who came this time were wiped out in an instant under the combined attack of Wang Yu and Huo Luo, Wang Yu looked at his hands that released the spell, and grinned, really, it was extremely useful and powerful.
"Can't indulge in it, it's not my power, the Book of the Weaver, it's just a piece of equipment, it's going to be damaged, it's going to drain my energy, and my foundation remains the same."
Silently admonishing himself in his heart, Wang Yu walked to the blood-stained land, and Ripple already knew that there was a cobwebbed underneath, and killed all of them to tell Wang Yu who was a traitor.
Reaching out and scooping the vine-wrapped creature out of the dirt, it was the first member of Horo to cut his throat with a panther.
He looked dead, but Holo had blocked the flow of blood with the tiny plants growing at the wound, and the guy had just lost consciousness.
Huo Luo walked out of the alley and came to Wang Yu's side, he didn't need Wang Yu to ask him to know what he should do, the green light points converged and covered the guy's wound, quickly closing the crack in his throat to the point where he could barely speak.
He took out the usual Truth Spray from his pocket, first gave this guy a tube of Spinel Heart Booster, and then poured the Truth Potion into his mouth when he suddenly opened his eyes, "Who told you about the Night Church?" ”
"Yes..."
…
Wang Yu, who got the news, was silent for a while, and then used the communicator to contact Zig who helped rescue those orcs who were not lightly injured, and the answer was quite unexpected, he decided to let Zig deal with and judge.
"That's the case, after thinking about it, it's better to let the professor do it yourself."
"Well, I see, I'm sorry, I'll take care of it soon, you go to the Night Church first, and I'll give them an explanation."
"That's not your problem, Professor."
"Hmm."
Shaking his head, he buried the cobweb member who told the truth in the ground here, and Wang Yu and Huo Luo went to the dark street where the Night Church was located.
After arriving here, Wang Yu quickly received a group of thanksgiving from the members of the Night Church, who gathered to thank Wang Yu for his help.
"Anyway, I'm also an archbishop, it's normal to make some efforts, I now know who the traitor is, wait for one of my bosses of the Night Peak Blade to bring him over, you can decide for yourself what happens to him."
Wang Yu said his words very calmly, but when the words fell, the gathered believers fell silent.
They finally found a place to gather, with a benevolent and benevolent goddess, everyone worked hard to build this home, but unexpectedly, there was a traitor, which made their hearts faintly have a pimple.
Who are the traitors, why should they choose to betray them, and which believer will be absent from the scene?
Suspicion began to appear among the believers in the vicinity, and those who knew the believers who had gone out instead of the church began to feel uneasy, could the traitor be their acquaintance? Whether he will also be doubted.
"Don't guess, it's not a believer in the Night Church, it's an informant for the Nightblade." Wang Yu directly interrupted their speculation.
In fact, Wang Yu figured out on the way back that the only person who could betray the information of the Night Church was actually the one who handed over the news to him in the Shadow of the Royal City.
The possibility of betrayal by the believers of the Night Church is almost zero, although the Night Lady is not strong, but it is still possible to observe these not many believers, since she can see the scene of the believers being hunted down and passed on to Wang Yu, then the betrayal of the believers will definitely not escape the eyes of the Night Lady.
Then there are only a few possible betrayers in the end, excluding Wang Yu himself and a few people from the special operations team, then the only one who knows the situation is the informant of the Night Blade in the dark shadow of the royal city that Wang Yu has not met much.
The image flashed in his mind, and Ziggy arrived around with a few weak orcs and Noelle, and the tightly tied guy he was carrying was the informant.
In her mind, she asked the Night Lady to let go of her hidden power and let Ziggy in, and soon Ziggy came to the front of everyone, and then threw the informant of the Peak of Karma in front of a group of worshippers of the Night Church.
"I'm sorry that I didn't control my members and caused you trouble, but he'll leave you at your disposal, and I hope you don't have too much prejudice against our Night's Blade."
Ziggy bowed seriously and apologized to the members of the Nightfall Church, and threw out the informant who had betrayed the Nightfall Church news in exchange for money and put it at the disposal of the Nightfall Church, which was a good demonstration of Ziggy or the attitude of the Night's Blade.
The dust-faced informant who was thrown on the ground raised his head, a middle-aged man who looked a little handsome, and from his face alone, he seemed to be a resolute and reliable man, but it was clear that it did not match what he did.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, please spare me, my daughter and wife are both residents of the Shadow of the Royal City, they are both members of a nearby gang, my wife and I have married and born my only child, I just, I just want them to have a better life."
The members of the Night Church who were talking around all turned their heads to look at the middle-aged man who was crying and explaining.
"As an informant, I have to be responsible for the handover of personnel with Wang Cheng many times, and over time, the fact that I have communicated with Wang Cheng and some special people has been known by the local gang, they don't know the identity of my informant, but they know that I have some channels."
Wang Yu raised his eyebrows and looked at this guy to continue to explain.
"You should have seen the greed of the gang, their desires are endless, they deliberately increased the collection of our family, asking us to pay more than five times the money, but I don't have that much money, so they want me to use information as collateral, otherwise use my wife and daughter as a threat."
"I, I really can't help it, oh, oh, yes, yes, look, this is my daughter and wife, they're beautiful, I, I really can't help it, woo..."
The middle-aged man struggled hard, and a picture fell out of the pocket of his shirt that looked good, on which was a group photo of a family of three, a younger middle-aged man and a beautiful woman surrounded a girl in the middle who was smiling happily.
Most of the believers who were angry about killing the middle-aged man fell silent, and they fell into a state of hesitation when they saw the photo.
They knew that the middle-aged man's description of the gang was indeed very likely, and they knew all too well the cruelty of the city after crawling around the underground city.
And after the arduous wandering, they finally have a home, and it is easier for them to understand the pain of others, so the believers are also entangled in the words of the middle-aged man, whether to forgive or not to forgive.
"Let Archbishop Wang Yu decide." Huo Luo's speech interrupted the discussion, and then they all looked at Wang Yu with trust and expectation in their eyes.
"Me?" Wang Yu pointed to himself.
"Okay." Confirming that the Night Church intended to let him decide the life and death of this traitor, Wang Yu nodded.
"Kill it." Wang Yu waved his hand, not caring much.
"Why?" Some of the believers couldn't help but cry out in confusion, but quickly covered their mouths and realized that they had spoken inappropriately.
"Why? It is impossible for someone who really cares about his family to use them as an excuse for himself, he has countless other options, and he does his best to prove that he is not easy to mess with, or find a way to transfer his wife and daughter, instead of choosing to sell information in exchange for money, and when he wants to pay the price, he still uses them as his shield, either he is a guy who is extremely selfish, or he is a rotten person who is so moved by himself that he deceived himself"
Wang Yu's words completely suppressed the doubts of the believers.
"Okay, I made a choice, you guys handle it yourself, I have something to do with the Holy Maiden."
Wang Yu waved his hand, and amid the cry of the informant, he took Zieg and Noelle to the place where the "Holy Maiden" turned into the Night Lady was located.
"Wang Yu, you actually saw it so thoroughly?"
Ziggy asked casually, he didn't expect Wang Yu to have such a clear insight into a person's personality and behavior.
"No, I'm talking nonsense, I don't know if what he said is true or false, what he said sounds quite the same thing, and I can't tell if it's true or false, and I can't read minds."
"Huh?"
"I just see that he is unhappy and want him to die, why do you want to do such a thing because there is a reason worthy of sympathy, you don't need to pay a price, I am not a saint, I don't have the ability to know and understand everyone's reasons and difficulties."
"I don't want to listen to him explain at all, I hate betrayal, there's nothing to forgive for this thing, he has a lot of choices, but he chose betrayal, everyone needs to pay for what they do, he chooses to betray, he has to pay the price, sometimes you don't need such a strong empathy ability."
"Well, he believes in the God of Light, and the God of Light is responsible for choosing whether to forgive him or not, and I am responsible for sending him to see the God of Light, and the God of Light is above." Wang Yu explained a paragraph, then thought of something and made a gesture of praising the God of Light.
“…… Well, I think you're right, I'll see how his wife and daughter are doing, and if they're really innocent, Night's Edge will take care of them. ”
"That's why I love Night's Blade." Wang Yu smiled.
