Chapter 263: The Second Bribe of the "Founder"
Friday morning, Bakerland, Factory District, 16 Howell Avenue.
Upton looked at what looked like a cloudy sky, and it was not until after nine o'clock that the sun could break through the mist and let the people of Beckland know that it was a sunny day.
He misses the beach of Connat City a little, where he can see the sky whenever he looks up, and the stars even at night.
With that in mind, Upton entered the courtyard of a warehouse.
Howell Avenue is known as "Warehouse Avenue", and this avenue is basically lined with warehouses of all kinds.
Some goods are temporarily stored here, from here to the dock area next door, and some goods are transported from the dock area to the dock area for temporary storage.
This is where Upton's company is registered, and his company currently has only two necessary clerks and a coachman, and only employs temporary labor when it needs to move goods.
The clerk's office was not here, and Upton looked around to make sure no one was following or noticing him before he opened the door to the warehouse and entered, closing it immediately.
The warehouse was very empty, with only two pumps.
Theoretically, with the current business volume of the company, the best choice is to share a warehouse with other companies, rather than renting such a large warehouse with only two pumps.
Of course, they didn't know what Upton meant.
Upton went to the two pumping machines and began to set up the altar and build the spiritual wall, a step that took up a lot of his time, after all, the pumping machine was so big that he had to wrap them all in the spiritual wall.
When everything was ready, Upton took a deep breath and began the ritual: "O Founder of Order on Earth...... your faithful servant prays for your gaze;
"Accept His offering;
"Pray that you will open the gates of the kingdom."
After the recitation, Upton burned the spiritual materials with a candle flame and waited with trepidation for the "founder" to respond.
The "Founder" didn't let him wait long, and after more than ten seconds, the majestic figure sitting in the middle of the sword appeared.
He became more tall and more majestic.
Upton immediately lowered his head, and couldn't help but shudder, this was a personal suppression.
With a dull sound of the door opening, the two bronze doors appeared, opening a small gap.
A hurricane echoed in the spiritual wall in front of the altar, and Upton, who had his head down, saw the two pumps off the ground together, and his eyes froze, it would take a dozen people to lift the steam pumps!
Then he smiled: What a fool I am! The strength of ordinary people is used to measure the power of the gods!
Soon, the pump floated out of Upton's sight, and he kept his head down until the dull sound of the door closing.
"Good!" A solemn voice overhead said.
Upton hurriedly said, "It's my honor to serve you. โ
The tremendous pressure was gone, and Upton dared to look up, and the two pumps were gone, as if they had never existed in the warehouse.
The simple altar on the ground proved that the sacrifice was not a dream.
Upton wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead: "Praise the Founder!" โ
He was about to make the corresponding gesture, but he realized that he didn't seem to know the gesture that represented the "creator".
Upton was a little frightened, feeling that he was too religious, and the next time he saw the masked man, he should definitely ask for the gesture representing the "founder".
Then he was a little excited: listening to the tone of the "founder" just now, he seemed to be very satisfied with my sacrifice! It was a response from the gods, and the vast majority of extraordinary beings in this world never received any reply from the gods in their lifetimes.
While cleaning up the altar, he felt that he had made the right bet by asking the masked man to help him.
โฆโฆ
South Continent, south of West Bailang, Khodis Copper Mine.
In front of the copper mine, a simple but solemn altar was erected, in front of which two huge wooden carts were parked, and Elliott was personally directing the slaves to make the final wipes of the altar with a leather whip in hand.
Zachary and several other family members smoked in the morning light next to the altar while watching Elliott laugh.
They were the first to take over the copper mines, unaware of Elliott's sister Moira's healing.
One of the family members asked, "What does he think?" He even said that he would ask the gods to give him two pumps, did the gods have pumps? โ
Several people laughed, and they all thought that this was still the most ridiculous farce in the history of the Balkan family.
"I guess I didn't know what to do because you squeezed it." Zachary smiled: "We'll accompany him in a while, and since we can't get a response from the gods, don't mention the matter of the pumping machine."
"At the same time, we have to reassure our mine manager, saying that we know that everything he has done is for the Khodis copper mine, but unfortunately the gods are not willing to watch here."
At that time, Elliot had no prestige at all.
As the morning light fell on the altar, Elliot blasted the slaves down.
He threw away the leather whip in his hand, tidied up his clothes, and walked up to the altar about one meter high with a solemn expression, lit candles, and drew patterns.
Zachary and the others all watched with their arms crossed, just waiting for Elliott to make a fool of himself.
The slaves were asked to crouch at the far end of the altar, and the foremen stood among them, all attracted by the solemnity of the mine management, and stared closely in the direction of the altar.
When the altar was arranged, Elliot placed the gold as a sacrifice, took out a wooden box from his bosom, and opened it, and inside the wooden box was a sleeve with some brown blood on it.
The brown blood flowed down the sleeves as if it were still alive. But no matter how the blood flows, it does not flow beyond the sleeves, and even if the blood touches the wooden box, it does not leave a trace on the wooden box.
After examining the sacrifice again, Elliot began to pray, "O Maker of order on earth...... Your faithful servant needs your help and needs two of the latest pumping machines of the Kingdom of Rune, and for this I am willing to offer all the sacrifices on the altar! โ
After the prayer, Elliot reverently knelt before the altar.
A family member not far away smiled, "It's quite like that." โ
But Zachary's expression was solemn, for he had just heard the full name of the Founder.
A few seconds later, the majestic figure appeared in Elliott's mind: "Yes! โ
"Praise the Maker." Elliot began the sacrifice, chanting in a solemn voice, "O Founder of order on earth...... Your faithful servant prays for your gaze;
"Open the gates of the kingdom;
"Please, give me two pumps."
Although the word "pump" in the sacrificial words sounded a little funny, Zachary and the others couldn't laugh, they felt that the altar was connected to some mysterious country, and they felt a terrifying force coming.
