Chapter 313: Everything Will End (Monthly Pass Plus 8/8)
"Jenny, that sounds familiar......"
Emily suddenly pulled out a pamphlet and began to flip through it.
Wright reached out and grabbed it and took a look: "Good guy! Fairy Tale King Mini Collector's Edition! Why is there such a thing? β
"I asked the Holy Capital Press to make it!"
"Why do you want to make the Holy Light Press obedient? Isn't that an institution under the jurisdiction of my Holy Capital Chamber of Commerce? β
Wright grabbed his hair and was surprised, the Holy Light Publishing House was a publishing house he set up specifically to unify all the fairy tales on the continent.
It stands to reason that it should be an important institution under the direct management of Grande.
Emily snatched her pamphlet back: "This is my prayer to Sister Joanna, who went to the Holy Capital to send down an oracle, and finally Flandor brought it to me!" β
"Don't use public resources for such useless things!"
"Isn't that useful?"
Emily pointed to a fairy tale in the booklet, "Seven Colored Flowers", and leaned into Wright's eyes.
"Look, I'll just say I've heard of it. Jenny is the protagonist of the Seven Colored Flowers. A kind little girl gets a seven-colored flower, and each petal can fulfill a wish.
The kind-hearted Jenny helped everyone with seven-colored flowers, and the last petal was also used on those in need.
What a beautiful fairy tale? β
"Really...... Moreover, it is a similar type of fairy tale to the little match girl. Well...... One is to light a match to see the desired vision, and the other is to remove the petals to fulfill the wish.
False Wishes for Fulfillment vs. Real Wishes for Fulfillment? β
Emily waved her hand repeatedly: "There are many differences, not just this one." But, Lady Afra, did you choose the name after this fairy tale? β
Afra looked dazed: "Huh? Nope! Jenny is the name of the artifact I prepared.
Ahem! Wright, did you hear that?
It's the name I'm going to give my first artifact!
What God holds dear!
Got it? Knew I wanted to watch ......"
Wright frowned and directly lifted the summoning ritual. Afra's words came to an abrupt end, and the phantom dissipated.
Jenny looked at the dissipated goddess virtual image, and her face suddenly changed: "No! Goddess !!! β
"Poison is terrible."
Wright shook his head: "I'll pay your goddess for the god coin, so now, sign the treaty for me." β
"It's so thick, how can you sign it!"
"I think it's thick, then you owe it."
Wright took out a piece of parchment with magic on it: "I have already made a choice with this contract and the content of these contracts, you only need to sign this one, it means that you have signed these." β
"Humph! Don't try to lie to me, let me see! β
Jenny was still very alert, she took the magic parchment, carefully examined the magic circle and magic configuration on it, and found that Wright had not lied to her.
So, she picked up a brush and wrote down her name bit by bit, and dripped her own blood.
Because it was given by the goddess, the witch slayer's name is also a holy name, and it has a strong locking effect, and the magic contract was signed without accident.
Looking at the curvature of the corners of Wright's mouth, Emily's face was full of doubt.
She sensed that Wright must have used some method to trick Jenny, but she didn't know what it was.
In order to do her job better, Wright gave Jenny a medal of light to prove her identity.
With this medal, she was able to enter and exit every church freely as an envoy of the Holy Capital.
Of course, this is just a precautionary measure.
After all, if you want to investigate, most of the cases can't be run over openly.
And in order to prevent the witch nemesis from messing around, Wright also gave her a small operation manual. Instruct her what to do if she encounters a special danger and how to contact herself in time.
Jenny was dismissive of the pamphlet, and she had developed her own set of rules of conduct in this world.
But for the medal given by Wright, she carefully put it away, because it was an old-fashioned medal produced by the twin gods before, and there was only one statue of Afra on it.
After waving goodbye to Jenny at the church door, Wright led Emily back to the chapel.
"What kind of means are you hiding?"
After seeing that there was no one around, Emily immediately asked curiously, "You must have hidden a trick to pit Jenny, right?"
But I thought about it for a long time, but I didn't think of any way. After all, there is no problem with the signing of the contract just now.
And you're signing an equal contract, so if there's something wrong with the content of the contract, it's unlikely that you'll be able to sign it in the end.
So, when exactly did you get started? β
Wright's face was full of unhappiness: "What are you talking about, can't I be sincere once?" β
"You man who even lied to the demon gods! Think of the Demon Realm's Victim Sorority! I believe you're not playing tricks? Are you kidding? β
Emily grabbed Wright's arm: "Tell me, hurry up, what the hell are you using?" β
Wright looked at her with an anxious look and sighed helplessly.
He pulled out a piece of paper from the tall pile of original contracts on the table.
"You see, it's part of the contract."
"That's right."
"Look...... The front of this piece of paper is full of stuff, isn't it? β
"Positively, don't you say!"
Wright turned the paper over: "But, is there still a big blank space on the back of this paper?" β
"This, this, this! Is this okay too? β
"If two people sign a contract in black and white, then they definitely can't do that.
Because, the content of the contract cannot be written on the back of the paper, which is considered a conventional thing.
Also, the contract is generally in duplicate. If there is a third party, even a triple.
However, the magic contract is not.
Because everyone believes in magic contracts too much.
Therefore, when signing a magic contract, you only need a contract magic scroll.
The content of the contract selected by the Contract Magic Scroll is the paper that was chosen. β
Wright shook the paper in his hand: "This is an optimization made by people in order to save magic scrolls.
After all, if all the contents of so many contracts were written in magic scrolls, then the cost alone would be astronomical.
A magic scroll, and then select the specific content of the agreement, which is a plain piece of paper with the contents written on it.
In this way, no matter how much the contract is in, there is no need to be afraid.
It's a bit like calling a database with program code.
In this way, there is no need to write a large amount of data on the code page, which reduces the size of the program.
But there is one thing that people often overlook.
The database can also be written and modified.
The most interesting thing is!
Contract magic will only test the fairness of the contract when it is signed by both parties and takes effect.
That is, the program will only verify the correctness of the data in the database on the first run.
And after that, I can modify the data casually without any problems!
For example, writing a new supplementary clause on the back of this piece of paper would also be included in the treaty.
Although the treaty is no longer fair, the contract is in place and will not be tested. β
Emily didn't understand everything, but as a magician, she was still shocked.
"This! You crazy guy, you've taken advantage of contract magic! This contract magic, which claims to be the fairest magic in the world, can't even stop you?
Yes! I get it!
Those demon gods in the demon prison were also deceived by you like this?
Those, members of the Victims' Association! β
Unexpectedly, Wright waved his hand: "That's not true, I used more despicable means against them." β
"What despicable means?"
"You...... Ever heard of the subprime mortgage crisis? β
"That'...... What is that? β
Wright smiled slightly: "I don't know the best, otherwise you may fall into the devil."
Okay, the Rotten Egg has left Jenny gathering information first, and we should go back.
This time there is such a big disturbance in the hinterland of the empire, the empire will definitely send people to investigate.
Although we are not afraid of these guys, if we are discovered, there will definitely be a lot of trouble.
What's more, we've been out for so long, and the Exclusive Beast Knights must have been trained almost, right?
It's also time to give those high-ranking members of the empire a little new shock.
It's naΓ―ve to want to stop me if you want to rely on the plains! β
Emily also nodded again and again when she heard this: "Okay, it's been so long, and I've missed Sister Lilith a little too."
She stayed alone in the capital of the Elven Empire, monitoring Sicilies in that library, it should be boring and hard, right? β
"Do you mean lying down in the sun every day with nothing to do, eating all kinds of delicious magical fruits that the elves have worked so hard to grow, and enjoying the singing and dancing performances of the elves who are famous for their art?
Will it be, very, hard and boring? β
Emily was silent for a long time: "I'm so envious! β
"I'm so envious!"
"I've found out that whoever follows you will have a lot of work. As long as I am separated from you for a while, I can be idle.
It's like Lilith, Alice, Eunica and Gladys and Rosatina now! β
Emily pointed at Wright, "You're the root of the toil!" β
"Fart! You have no idea how laid-back Lilith and I were when we went on adventures together.
As a result, since I met you, troublesome things have followed! I can't finish it! β
Wright reached out and tapped Emily's forehead, "It's you!" You are the source of trouble! β
The two quarreled in the holy church until the missionaries returned.
And as Wright said, the city's problems have been largely solved.
Although the damage to the walls was severe, Wright didn't care much.
After all, it won't be long before the elves will come and the walls will be destroyed.
Wait until the war is over, and it would be good to rebuild it. After all, large-scale projects such as reconstruction are the best way to focus people's hearts and raise their faith.
After a few pleasantries with the clergy of the chapel, Wright quietly left the city with Emily and headed in the direction of the Elven Empire.
Not long after the two left, a group of magicians quietly arrived in the city.
Looking at the massive pits in the city walls and the ruins of the glorious cathedral in the center of the city, the group of magicians were silent.
After a long time, one of the members approached the leader and asked.
"What do we do now?"
"Look, ask the local residents to come over, and ask directly to see what happened."
"According to eyewitnesses, a powerful pillar of holy light has appeared here, reaching into the sky. Shouldn't we ask the guys from the Church of Light? β
The Great Mage Mo De glared at his subordinates viciously: "Fool, in this case, you must not provoke the clergy of the Holy Light Church.
In the unlikely event that they activate any magic technique to communicate with the gods, our whereabouts will be revealed.
You must know that even if the empire has been kicked out of the Holy Realm sequence now, the Holy Light Goddess can also send divine punishment at any position in the empire at will.
The reason why the goddess of light did not do this was because she was afraid that the frequent divine punishment would shake the faith of unknown believers or cause unnecessary panic.
But for people of our status, the goddess will definitely not have any scruples.
Until the plan is successful, try to avoid any contact with the clergy of the Cult of Light, you know? β
"Yes! Lord Morde! β
"Call me Councillor! What are you still doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up and gather intelligence? β
With Councilor Morder's roar, his magicians dispersed and blended into the crowd.
It didn't take long for some of the magicians to return to the meeting place one after another, and gather the news they had gotten.
Archmage Morder's face became ugly after listening to everyone's reports.
"Alright, I got it. Now help me set up the phantom array and enchantment, and I need to report back to the Sage. β
"Yes!"
The mages stood in a circle and brandished their staffs to create barriers, cutting off their area from the outside world.
Councillor Morder sat cross-legged, took a crystal-carved skull from his bosom and placed it on the ground, and slashed his fingers with a knife, dripping the blood on.
With the dripping of blood, the originally pale blue skull first turned blood red, and then quickly turned into the black of the decay.
Immediately after that, a thick purple-black smoke poured out, and an old face appeared in front of him.
"Morde, my disciple, what are you calling me for?"
"Teacher, we have just found traces of holy iniquity in Salamun City."
"Holy Sin, is that the sage who killed the sage of reason and the sage of wisdom out of specification combat power? How did he end up here? β
"It's not clear, but he destroyed the cathedral in the city of Sala Gate.
I think the barrier we set up before should have been discovered by him.
Teacher, what next?
That guy won't give up. He's notoriously difficult. β
The old man in the smoke groaned: "Don't panic, continue to advance according to our plan." Madame Corruption is very well laid out, and it doesn't affect the outcome because of this surprise.
When the Moon of Corruption rises, everything will come to an end! β
