Chapter 498: The captain of the transport brigade reappears

The ordinary people on the hillside could only feel the undoubted sense of majesty from mid-air, and felt the fear that although they knew that the other party was in front of them, they could not see the other party.

This is from the unknown, from fear that exists with great power.

This kind of fear is buried deep in everyone's genes, in the lives of the ancients, in the vast universe, there are too many powerful and helpless existences.

They left an indelible mark on the minds of the ancients, which is why people feared.

It's a stress response to either run away when you feel fear, or you can show your weakness and pray that being will spare you.

At this time, more than 10,000 people have long been unable to move their legs, where can they still run?

So all they have left is to reverently fall to their knees, or slump on the ground.

The statues in their hands or in their arms also slipped to the ground, and the statues were so ugly and weak at this time.

"Evil beliefs will eventually pass away!" A solemn voice in the air said, "From this day onwards, believe in my name, pray regularly, and offer sacrifices at regular intervals!"

"Since you believe in my name, practice my works.

"You shall have no other gods before me;

"Thou shalt not carve an idol for thyself;

"Thou shalt not call my name in vain;

"Work diligently, not slack;

"Honor your father and mother, that you may be long in this land;

"Thou shalt not kill;

"Thou shalt not commit adultery;

"Thou shalt not steal;

"Be honest and upright, and have the courage to take responsibility;

"Thou shalt not cling to the things of others."

The solemn voice disappeared, and then the surging sense of oppression disappeared with it.

The trembling crowd shouted as if they had suddenly come to their senses: "Believe in your name!" Practice what you do! ”

The shouts gradually converged, and it seemed as if the dead grass were trembling.

A ray of sunlight pierced through the mist and dispelled the gloom of the wilderness.

The thin sunlight shines on people's bodies, as if to dispel the dark side of them, and many people feel like they have been reborn.

Hobart saw that their emotions were still prone to fluctuations, and they would still show very obvious expressions of fanaticism, hesitation, and confusion.

However, there were also expressions of joy and excitement on their faces.

The effect of this "treatment" is very good.

Hobert removes his cloak, revealing a pattern of a stick figure throne and a distorted abstract symbol: "Remember the symbol representing the 'Founder'!" From this day forward, you will have only one faith! ”

"The Founder!"

"The Founder!"

Amid the cheers of the people, several people in the front row held Hobert's cloak with both hands as if they were holding holy relics, and then pulled the cloak open and displayed it in front of everyone.

Many people quickly bit their fingers and drew that abstract symbol on their clothes so as not to forget them.

Others took out some knives and other tools and carved them on their arms to deepen their memories.

This made Hobert couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, looking at everyone's fanatical expressions, why did this scene seem to be spreading the belief in evil gods?

Uh, well, for the Orthodox Church, it's indeed an evil god faith.

The frenzy continued for more than half an hour, until many of them had visibly tired expressions on their faces, and the administrators shouted at Hobart's signal to drive them to work.

They were still as docile as ever, working hard in the wilderness, except that when they left the hillside, they left behind a large number of statues of demons.

Hobert called over the official in charge of guarding the more than 10,000 people, a woman of nearly thirty years old, who looked very steady and had a very determined look in her eyes.

Hobert smiled, "Quinna, right? ”

The lady stood straight: "Yes, sir. ”

"Conrad told me about you, and he was relieved that he had entrusted you with the most difficult task of guarding these madmen."

"Thank you Chief Conrad for your introduction, and thank you Lord for your promotion."

Hobert kicked away a demon statue in front of him: "I'm just saying this to tell you, do a good job, don't live up to Conrad's introduction." ”

Before Quinna could say anything more, Hobart continued: "This group of manpower should be fully utilized, and after clearing the grass, I will send a professional engineer to assist you in your work."

"You're only responsible for going to the East Coast to bring in building materials, and then you're going to build a factory here, and when the factory is built, they're going to be the first volunteer workers here.

"If someone's mood is stabilizing, ask them if they'd like to go home.

"Those who are willing to go home will be handed over to the local government, and those who are not willing to go home will be given some salary and let them stay and continue to work.

"The salary at the beginning should not be too high, maintain one-third to one-quarter of the salary on the other side of the strait for a period of time, and if they fully recover, then give them a normal salary."

Quinna, like Conrad, had a habit of shorthand, and memorized the general meaning of what Hobart had just said.

It was only after Hobart and his retinue rode away that Quinna came to her senses: it turned out that the lord had planned to build an industrial area in this wilderness.

Of course, it is necessary to build an industrial area, and in Hobert's opinion, this wilderness will not grow anything for a long time, and this is not a good place to build an industrial area! There's no need to worry about pollution.

In Hobert's eyes, every inch of his territory should have its value.

With more than 10,000 people under control of the mental pollution, Hobert was in a good mood and began to sketch out the future of his new territory.

The bridge must be repaired, not only that, but Hobert feels that the genes of the infrastructure madness in his body seem to have suddenly awakened, and he also plans to build a railway to connect the entire territory.

Throughout the day, Hobart spent the day sketching out the future, and in the evening he had an early dinner, put on a rare hooded cloak, and then used his "travel" to make his way to Eugene's collar.

Only this time he came to the junction of the territory of Eugene and the Teutonic Viscountdom.

At this time, the South Coulson area is already warm during the day, but it is still a little cold at night, and there is some fog in the mountains, and it is very magical to watch them blown by the wind at night.

Hobert waited for a short moment with his hands behind his back, and then saw a black figure walking quickly towards him.

When he got closer, he saluted, "Sir! ”

This man was none other than Dennis's father, the former Grove Knight.

"It's been a hard time for you." Hobert took out a pre-concocted potion: "This is the 'barbarian' potion I promised. ”

When he gave Elliott extraordinary traits before, Hobert deliberately left behind a "barbarian" and a "bribe-taker" trait.

The former is to fulfill Grove's promise, after all, in recent times, he has perfectly completed the task that Hobart gave him before.

Grove didn't hesitate and drank it in one gulp, but because the previous potion was not digested very well, the process of taking the potion was a bit dangerous.

Fortunately, with Hobart on his side, Grove survived.

Hobert deliberately did not say anything: "In your current state, you can take the 'barbarian' potion at most, and it will be dangerous if you go any further." ”

Grove sighed: "I finally had such an opportunity, but I didn't expect it to ...... Hey......"

Hobart smiled in the darkness and said, "Your youngest son Dennis is very good, he has now been given the opportunity to become extraordinary, and his achievements will definitely surpass that of 'bribe-takers' in the future." ”

It's an encouragement, but it's also a warning.

Grove was slightly stunned at first, and then smiled: "You promised me the conditions before, and you can give it to Dennis." ”

"That's not the same thing." Hobert said: "In the future, Dennis is the one who wants to walk out of this mountain with me, how can he see a 'bribe-taker' potion in his eyes?" ”

Grove is more reassured, which means that Dennis really has a great future.

"What's new lately?"

"I only found out a few days ago that at the beginning of the year, the royal family gave Teutonic a Sequence 6 potion, hoping to use him to restrain you, my lord." Grove reported:

"In addition, the royal family is very well informed, and after you drove the demons away, the first investment in the Teutonic realm arrived, which was as much as 100,000 gold liso, and it was said that a scenic spot would be established on the west bank as well."

"These idiots." Hobart said: "One scenic spot is just right, build another scenic spot and wait to lose money!" ”

Hobert pondered for a moment and said: "Try to get this project in your hands, openly to build a scenic spot, and secretly to build a characteristic ecological park." ”

He explained to Grove the meaning of the ecological garden, and then added: "I have consulted the pastor of Mother Earth God Church, the soil of the West Bank is very suitable for growing vegetables and fruits, and the 100,000 gold miles are used in this area to avoid wasting resources."

"If you need it, you can ask the pastor of Mother Earth God Church for tips on how to grow fruits and vegetables."

"Yes!" Grove realizes that the Lord is already preparing to pick the Teutonic Neck.

Hobart added, "Tell Teuton to try to make him a 'judge,' which will give him a better grasp of extraordinary abilities."

"Also, I'll give you a copy of the extraordinary features of Sequence 5 that you can dedicate to Teutonic when you have the opportunity."

Grove opened his mouth wide: "Preface, sequence 5?" ”

"Yes." Hobart smiled, "Let him be a 'Knight of Punishment'!" ”

Grove really couldn't figure out what Lord Hobert's purpose was. To turn your competitor into a Sequence 5!

That's Sequence 5, and Grove can't even think of it!

After his meeting with Grove, Hobart took a "trip" back to Baron Felix's Lord's Mansion to rest.

Because there had just been a riot, he was going to stay here for two days and then go back.

Just as he was about to fall asleep, Hobert heard someone praying in the "Land of Disorder", and he sighed and had to put on a quilt and enter the "Land of Disorder".

An unfamiliar star appeared in the waterhole in front of the "Iron Throne", Hobert was a little strange, and today he didn't tell the honorific name of the group of madmen "The Founders", how could a new star appear?

Spreading his spirituality, Hobert saw a middle-aged woman dressed as a court maid, reciting her name in horror.

Hobert was slightly stunned, was this hypnotized, or was it a psychological suggestion?

Looking closely at the style of the other party's clothing, Hobert judged that it was the costume of the Rune court.

This reminded Hobart of George III: Could it be that this old man is tempting me? Or did he perceive my relationship with the "land of disorder"?

Hobart pondered for a moment and decided to ignore it, but to be on the safe side, Hobert brought "1-106", or "Fabouti's Ring", to the real world.

After putting on the ring, Hobart did not feel any malice towards himself.

Hobart put his mind at ease: theoretically, even if George III had become the "Black Emperor", he would not have been able to find me so easily.

So Hobert went into a meditative state and quickly fell asleep.

As he slept soundly, Hobert felt his hands ache hotly, and he thought he was dreaming, and scratched his hands a few times while he was half asleep to no avail.

Eventually, Hobart woke up to find that it was "1-106" emitting a burning sensation.

Hobart was stunned for about a second, and he suddenly realized: someone has shown strong malice towards me!

He thought back to his previous prayer: George III really wants to murder me.

This made him immediately enter the "Realm of Disorder", and put the "Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord" and the "Holy Child King" into the real world.

Hobart then realizes that this idea does not seem to be right, and that in theory, when he kills George III's youngest son in his defection, George III is the easiest to target him.

Hobart couldn't figure it out: by what did George III lock me up now? It's easier for Philip I to lock me down, because he still has a "Order Crystal" in his hand. But I don't have any contact with George III!

He thought again: even if George III was not good for me, he would not be able to come in person, and the angels of the royal family would not be able to come. Because this is the kingdom of Fenerport, if Rune's angels enter Fenerport, it will be tantamount to a declaration of war.

Hobart realizes that he only needs to guard against the demigod-level master from Rune.

As he thought about it, he got dressed, got the seals and magical items ready, and kept himself in a fighting state.

Sitting on the chair, Hobert pondered: The level 1 seal in my hand can be ......

Just thinking of this, Hobart's spirituality felt something, and he saw that the space above the bed where he slept suddenly became illusory.

This illusory Hobart couldn't be more familiar, it's "travel"!

Hobert jerked up and made an attacking gesture, and almost at the same time, a man with large ears and a face covering his face appeared from the illusory space.

When the big-eared man arrived in the real world, he immediately jumped out of the air and nailed his sword to the bed.

Hobert sighed: Fortunately, I put "1-106" on my hand tonight, otherwise this sword would not have been able to dodge anything!

It occurred to him that the Assassins were supposed to assassinate frequently, which is why they would be so proficient in using the "travel" to appear close to the target.

The big-eared man saw that his target was not in bed when he stabbed the sword, and by the time he found Hobart it was too late.

"Chaos!" Instead of using the ability of the seal, Hobert used his best "Chaos!" ”

The man with big ears immediately fell into a state of "confusion": what did I just stab? Did you stab your target? But why does the target look like a pillow? Could it be that my target this time was a pillow?

By the time he came to his senses, Hobart had stabbed him in the chest.

At this time, Hobert had two Tier 1 seals on his body, "1-104" and "1-106", and he felt that this was already the limit of the Tier 1 seals he could carry.

However, these two Level 1 seals do not have the ability to directly inflict heavy damage on the enemy, "1-106" can summon a magma pool of more than ten meters, but Dennis, Conrad and others live next door, or next door to the next door, and the sudden magma pool will burn them all to death.

So Hobart chose the most secure "physical attack".

After the big-eared man was injured, he raised his left hand as he stepped back, revealing the black gloves on his hand: "Imprisoned!" ”

At this moment, the figure of the other party seemed to become extremely tall, exuding a sense of majesty that people did not dare to look at directly.

Seeing this black glove, Hobert suddenly remembered his previous experience in Beckland, when he had just come to Fenerport, and suddenly thought that he could sneak attack some of the Tamara family, so he went to Beckland and killed a man on his back.

At that time, he met an opponent with big ears and black gloves.

Before he had time to think too much, Hobert immediately poured spirituality into "1-104": "Amplify! ”

He remembered that the other party's glove was a Level 1 seal, so he changed "imprison Hobert" and "magnified" it to "all creatures in the captive room".

So Hobert and the enemy were enveloped in an amber-like film at the same time, and they stood still and could not move.

The big-eared man, Bennet, the leader of the Tamara family, apparently did not expect that one day he would be "imprisoned" by his own "captivity".

He didn't even expect that Hobert also had a level 1 seal on his body!

So the life-and-death battle scene just now suddenly changed the style, one was "imprisoned" in bed, and the other was "imprisoned" in front of the bed.

Hobart knowingly asked, "Who are you?" ”

But he was already wondering in his heart: Was the old thing about the previous killing in Beckland discovered by the Tamara family?

"The one who wants your life!" Bennet said coldly, "Death! ”

Hobert also responded immediately: "Chaos! ”

Theoretically, "death" is inevitable, but that is only theoretically, and the "lawyer" path is a way to take advantage of loopholes.

Moreover, the "chaos" used by Hobart is the "chaos" used by "1-104", which can confuse the distance between Bennet and Hobart and at the same time, it can also make Bennet's intentions fall into "chaos".

As a result, Bennet's fist brushed the tip of Hobert's nose.

It didn't hit, but Bennet felt like he did.

So Bennet threw his punch at the same time: "Deprivation! ”

He briefly "stripped Hobert" of the right to use the Level 1 Seal.

But at this moment, Hobert also had a corresponding response: "Exploit! ”

Because Bennet did not specify the exact timing of the "deprivation" effect, Hobart "exploited" the rules and loopholes to allow the "deprivation" effect to end prematurely.

As a result, Hobert's ability to use the Level 1 Seal was stripped for 1 second, and then the "Stripped of" state ended, and Hobert was able to use the Level 1 Seal again.

The two people in the room, one standing on the bed and the other standing on the ground, looked at each other, and they both felt that the extraordinary abilities of the "arbitrator" and the "lawyer" approach were used together as if they were playing around.

One strives to establish the rules, and the other tries to find loopholes in the rules that are beneficial to themselves, causing the rules to collapse.

In the end, it seems to have the effect of one plus one minus.

Seeing that his raid did not have the intended effect, Bennet prepared to use the "trip" to leave while guarding against Hobert.

Hobert had no intention of blocking him, but summoned the "Gate of the Underworld" before the other party left.

In an instant, the whole room became gloomy and cold, and two bronze doors with intricate patterns suddenly appeared, pale palms protruding from the cracks in the doors, and indescribable eyes peeking out through the cracks in the doors, which made people shudder.

At the same time, the crack in the door creates a huge suction force, as if it can suck the soul of a person into the bronze gate.

At the moment when the "Gate of the Underworld" appeared, Bennet felt cold all over, especially the wound that was stabbed by the black knife just now, which was bitterly cold.

At the same time, the space in front of Bennet became illusory, and he immediately stepped into the spirit realm.

Watching Bennet leave, Hobert terminated the summons of the "Gates of the Underworld", but the whole room was still cold and bitter.

Hobert rubbed his hands reflexively, and immediately entered the "Land of Disorder" to take out the "Faceling Necklace", holding the necklace in his right hand and the black knife in his left hand, he silently said in his heart: "The person who was stabbed by this knife." ”

“……”

After meditating seven times, Hobert used meditation to enter a half-asleep state.

He saw a picture of Bennet, whose face he couldn't see clearly, in a rune-style living room, where a young woman, presumably his companion, was cleaning his wounds.

The picture around the wound is the clearest, the skin has been frozen black and purple, and some black blood is leaving out.

The rest of the frame is very blurry, and Hobert can probably see what appears to be one or two people around.

The state of dream divination disappeared, and Hobert thought for a moment: the picture is not very clear, probably because the other party has a level 1 seal, fortunately, the holder of the seal is a sequence 5, if it is a demigod, it may only get a blurry picture of the character's appearance that is not clear at all.

Hobert thought again: the other party's injuries had initially begun to attack, but if his injuries were too serious, there was a high probability that his elders or superiors would come to help him solve the problem.

So Hobart divined again: "It will be dangerous for me to go after the assassin just now. ”

“……”

After meditating seven times, Hobart received a revelation that there was danger, but not much danger.

Hobart immediately made up his mind: then go, maybe find clues about the Tamara family again.

He immediately set up the altar and brought the "Light Priest Ring" and the "Ocean Pendant" to the real world with a bestowal ceremony.

After being well prepared, Hobert navigated with the "Faceling Necklace" and entered the spirit world with "travel".

The moment he entered the spiritual world, Hobert said in his heart: Kou can go, Lao Tzu can also go!

After diving headlong into the spirit realm and "traveling" for more than ten seconds, Hobert's spirit told him that the living room he had just seen was ahead.

He drew his sword and jerked away from the spirit realm: "The gate of the underworld! ”
