Chapter 5 [The East Wind is Coming]
For the next half a month, Lin Tao and Loria have been living in depth, and the long-term lovesickness has also made the two more and more integrated, becoming more and more tacit, and sometimes they can understand each other's minds with just one look.
Lin Tao enjoyed this tranquility very much, firstly, the big guy rode his horse for a long time, and it really took a while to rest and recuperate in the dance between killing and death, otherwise his energy and physical strength would collapse. In addition, Lin Tao also needs to understand the city of Ayibagh and the Holy See, and everyone also needs time to comprehend and consolidate the progress they have felt on the edge of life and death during this time. In this regard, Lin Tao is not stingy, most of his time will be spent teaching these young men to cultivate, and the rest of the time will be spent letting them go out to find out the news.
After all, when he first arrived in the Byzantine Empire, he was not familiar with the place, and he couldn't live in the depths, Lin Tao was basically about to become deaf and blind, which was absolutely not good, he needed news to capture that trace of the east wind, so that he could prepare to cut into the upper class of the entire Ayibag, and then try his best to enter the Holy See.
After getting along for a long time, Lin Tao and this group of soldiers also had feelings. He had already made up his mind to organize these dozen or so people first and form a secret group, which was specially used to spy on intelligence, and as long as he had the opportunity to talk to Loria's father when he turned around, he would not catch a few people and not let go.
Lin Tao also had no choice but to make this decision. Originally, he thought that walking the rivers and lakes would naturally be as few people as possible, so that there was no concern and it was very chic. But the opponent in front of him is really powerful and a little outrageous, maybe if someone else comes, he will definitely put aside the hatred and fly away, after all, such a behemoth as the Holy See is really not something that can be shaken by one person.
In this regard, Lin Tao had to rely on external forces. It's just that Long Que Wutong and the others definitely can't count on it, even if they are around, Lin Tao has to drive them away, he knows that he is going to be a life-and-death situation, and he can't afford to drag his good brothers and friends into the water. As for the white-clothed Dou Sheng, it's not that Lin Tao doesn't want to ask for this helper, but he can't find anyone and don't say it, even if he finds it, it is estimated that others will not pay attention to him.
After all, the Holy See is simply terrible.
Loria is such a smart and clever woman, although staying with Lin Tao during this time makes her feel extremely happy and satisfied, but she can always easily see the helpless hesitation under Lin Tao's dark eyes. She knew what Lin Tao was going to do next, no matter how powerful the Holy See was, it couldn't stop Loria's love for Lin Tao and the persistence in her heart. She has already made a plan, no matter what, she will stay with Lin Tao, even if it is death, she will die together, and never be separated again.
"When!when!when!" there was a crisp knock on the door.
Lin Tao glanced back, and the next moment a gust of wind blew, the door opened, and Lin Tao's figure had already appeared at the door.
Adam, the captain of the dark group, waited honestly outside the door with his head bowed respectfully.
Lin Tao looked satisfied, and nodded in his heart, this kid has made great progress in both strength and temperament after this period of life and death fighting, and at the age of only twenty-eight, he already has the cultivation of the late stage of the great fighter, and he is only one step away from the fighter. I heard that his usual training is quite hard, not to mention, he is still active when he goes out to perform tasks, which is really a rare good seedling, and Lin Tao is not only secretly happy. In time, Adam will become the preeminent man of the younger generation.
"How?\.
"Forget it, let's take it one step at a time. At present, it can only be like this, and in addition, it is necessary to cultivate the Nine Dragons Transformation Exercise in the shortest possible time. "Eh, in the end, the strength is still too weak, if I have the strength of the fighting god now, then the strong men of the entire Byzantine Empire are together, what is there to fear. It's just that this Nine Dragons Transformation Technique is really difficult to cultivate, but its strength is also extremely great. Only the third change allowed me to reach the cultivation of the middle stage of the Great Dou Master, and if I completed the fourth change, I would definitely be able to have the late stage of the Great Dou Shi, and even if I was lucky, I might be able to reach the primary level of the Dou Sheng. Thinking of this, the depression in Lin Tao's heart was swept away and he became full of confidence. After all, at the age of only twenty-three, he was able to achieve today's cultivation, which was not bad.
"On the fifteenth day of this month, is it Sunday? Let me go and see the prayer service of the Holy See, and see if I can find an opportunity to deal with the cardinal who came to Ayibagh this time, and then ......" Lin Tao's mind was flying, and a complete plan gradually became clear in his heart, and then became clearer and clearer.
In the next period of time, the entire mansion became more and more calm, and unlike the calm during the day, every night the dark group would go out to collect intelligence, even He Yiming went out with Adam and others to carry out the mission. After all, it is only in battle that the strength improvement is the fastest, and it is never wrong to apply what you have learned.
Every morning, the people in the dark group would return to the house and give Lin Tao the news they had collected overnight, and Lin Tao would put the news in a clear and categorical manner. As the days passed, the news and intelligence on Lin Tao's desk covered almost all the news of famous people in various industries in the entire Ayibag City, which also provided strong support for his future plans. With this information, Lin Tao also specially drew a map of the distribution of forces, which summarized all the characters of the entire upper class of Ayibagh, and he could understand the distribution of forces in a word, which was very useful.
At the beginning, the dark group was still a little immature in collecting intelligence, but with some training, it has become more and more proficient, and Lin Tao has become more and more comfortable to use, and he appreciates the work of these young men. However, he also repeatedly warned the people in the dark team that safety is the first priority in the execution of the mission, and remember not to put their lives aside for the sake of the mission, as long as they encounter danger, then flee immediately. The reason for this is that, firstly, Lin Tao has a relationship with these people, and secondly, the current manpower is very scarce, and the death of any one person is a major loss, which will cause immeasurable losses to the development of the entire dark group and even the entire revenge plan.
Stability is the most important thing.
As Sunday approaches, the whole city of Ayibagh becomes more and more lively, which is similar to the monthly market of some countries and peoples. Every day, a large number of believers poured into Ayibagh from the entrances of the various gates, some of whom had come from other places, and some of whom were originally Ayibagh. These people came for one purpose, to attend the Sunday. Of course, this is not very accurate, after all, in any place where the power of the Holy See is distributed, there will be a church or square dedicated to the semi-annual prayer ceremony for the faithful, and it is not necessary to come here to pray in Ayibagh. There was only one reason why these people came, and that was to see for themselves Lord Gandy, one of the ten cardinals. This is undoubtedly the most uplifting thing for believers, and this is where faith lies.
And this also made Lin Tao's expression more and more cold. It was only at this moment that he became aware of the fanatical faith of the many large believers of the Holy See. This ability is simply outrageous, and it seems that if Nagandi only needs to give an order, there will be a large number of followers willing to die in the religion. On the other hand, you don't want life, you don't want wealth, and you don't want it for the faith in your heart.
In the blink of an eye, Sunday approached......
