Chapter 60 Special Recruitment Order
Marilyn thought for a long time and finally said it. "Actually, we were talking about wiping out Philindil's forces before, and... and...!"
"And without my intervention, right?"
Marilyn looked at me in surprise, then nodded and lowered her head in embarrassment.
I said indifferently: "Actually, you don't have to feel guilty. As an independent force, you and we really have no grudges to talk about, but emotions are two-way things. You'd better understand. Give up emotions, then we The relationship between us is like a double-edged sword. It can help you 'force' us back, and it can also allow us to use it to cut you. But if you accept this feeling, then it can become the glue that sticks us together. "
Marilyn wanted to speak, but I stopped her immediately. "No need to explain, I know everything. As the lord of a force, it is necessary to maintain one's integrity, so I don't blame you. But from the perspective of each force, you have indeed abandoned us as an ally. .”
"please……!"
I still didn't let Marilyn speak. "There is nothing to deny. The Frost Rose Alliance is not a guide dog, we are a guide. We have paid a price to help you up, and now it is time to recover the cost."
"Eh?" Marilyn was stunned. She didn't understand what I meant by saying that.
I looked at her panicked face with an evil smile. "Why did I know what you were thinking in the Dark Temple just now, but I still wanted to help you escape from the tiger's mouth of Ditans? Because you are our food, and I do not allow him to eat our food. Now, it's time to eat , I thought it would be a long time later, but now it seems that we can start early.”
"What did you do?" Marilyn finally realized that something was wrong.
"How many original believers in light were there? Two billion, right?" (This includes NPCs)
Marilyn nodded mechanically.
I continued: "So how many believers do you still have after you split?"
"About 1.3 billion."
"Okay then!" I started to calculate: "You have a total of two billion believers. This number is roughly stable. No matter how hard you try, there has been no change in history. In other words, it is unlikely that there will be a sudden population change." A change in quantity?”
Marilyn nodded.
"Very good. For your separatist war, the Temple of Light at that time sent a vanguard army to attack our guild. As a result, tens of millions of people were killed and captured. This later led to a crisis of faith. About 100 million believers left the Temple of Light on their own. Plus you After the civil war, the total number of believers now will not exceed 1.6 billion. Can you accept this number?"
Marilyn nodded again in confirmation.
"Okay! 1.6 billion believers, you have 1.3 billion, then does Philindil only have 300 million believers?"
Marilyn finally noticed the problem. Three hundred million is obviously unrealistic. Philindil has not as many followers as she does. At least it's around one billion, but if you calculate it this way, the total number of believers will change too much. "What's going on? I know you must know."
"Of course I know, because this is the result of the work of our guild."
"You help us gain followers?" Marilyn almost didn't believe the conclusion she said.
"Hahahaha! Marilyn, you are so innocent and cute! I really don't understand why you haven't been dyed black after sitting in this dirty position for so long, or are you just pretending to be innocent?" Me She looked at Marilyn calmly until a look of surprise appeared on her face. "It seems you have figured it out, right?"
"Have you placed people inside our temple?"
My expression suddenly became cold and unhuman. "I have long said that the Frost Rose Alliance is not a charity, we are a primitive capital group. Independently cannibalizing everything close to us is the way we behave. In our eyes, there are only things that can be eaten now and things that cannot be eaten for the time being. Yes, there is nothing that cannot be eaten, do you understand?"
"you……!"
"Don't call me dark. This is the benefit of the team, not a personal issue. If you want to live a peaceful and unrestrained life, don't touch these dirty things. Now that you have stepped into our circle, don't maintain that poor arrogance. This will only make you Even more disgusting!”
"I……!"
"It's too late for you to do anything now. In the past month, our guild has spent 600 million crystal coins to thoroughly cleanse your power. Now one-third of your believers are ours. And now The personnel I have placed are all capable of fighting. Even ordinary poor people are the most aggressive. So it is impossible for your remaining two-thirds of believers to defeat us. Also, by the way, My target is not just you. There are many of our people around Philindil, but they are not as powerful as yours."
"you you……!"
"Do you want to know how I did it? It's actually very simple. Both sides of you are beaten to pieces, so your strength will always grow, right? So you will expand your strength crazily after the war. Although this kind of expansion will quickly reduce your strength, Supplemented, but the problem also arises. You have no way to screen such a large group of people one by one. This is a loophole. We can directly 'place' people within you. And once these people gain status within you, they can In turn, put more spies in. Because we are based on massive spies, the new spies can continue to push our high-level spies upward through recommendation, so that our high-level spies can get higher Positions, and in turn, senior spies can draw more ordinary spies into your temple. Using this method of mutual support, we quickly controlled most of the key departments within the temple. Do you really think that the temple is still Is this yours?"
"you……!"
"I'm so excited. We spent 600 million crystal coins to do this. It's like a mountain! High-level spies are all elites trained by our guild. Low-level spies use money, force and... New believers bought by faith. Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you. The reason why these people are willing to act as spies is because they are actually believers in the Temple of Chaos and Order."
"The Temple of Chaos and Order?" Marilyn almost shouted: "Is it the guardian temple of your guild?"
"Correct." I said with a smile: "The temple is about investing money first to gain faith, and then recovering the benefits from the believers. We spent so much money, and ended up with hundreds of millions of believers. They helped us get you If we have it completely in our hands, we will have more believers. Later, we will use your believers to attack the Dark Temple. Of course, those who will die will be your true light believers. When both light believers and dark believers suffer heavy losses , the one-third of our people who are silent among you will tear off their disguise, and at this time the Temple of Light no longer exists, replaced by the Temple of Chaos and Order in the New Earth. As for those who have been badly consumed The Temple of Darkness. Why don’t you just flatten and round it with me?”
"You are more like a devil than Ditans!" Marilyn said coldly.
"Maybe! But I prefer others to call me a devil with angel feathers."
"You...!" As soon as Marilyn finished speaking, she suddenly remembered something. "Wait, why are you telling me this? Aren't you afraid that I will expose your plan?"
"You can try." I reached out to pat Marilyn on the shoulder, but she slapped my hand away angrily. I smiled and retracted my hand and said: "All the key parts of the Temple of Light are in my hands. Whether you sit on the throne of the goddess or others is the same as sitting on it, as long as there is an angel with long feathers sitting on it. In my hands There is no shortage of fallen angels, who sit as if their wings were dyed white. So you'd better understand your position now and stop talking to me in an equal tone, so as not to make me unhappy. Now I just want you to go out and be a 'prostitute' Pick up customers. You can only smile and serve the people I designate. If you understand, please be honest with me. If you behave well, I will let you continue to be a goddess. If you behave badly, I don't mind being allowed to open a prostitute in rb. Open a goddess brothel in the courtyard area, so that the inferior races who once surrendered to you will know what their goddess tastes like."
Marilyn looked at me tremblingly, wanting to fight back, but couldn't say a word.
"This is your choice." I said with some sadness: "How to put it! We are indeed devils. Because we like to tempt others to commit crimes. But we are also angels, because we never force others to make mistakes. We just Given the opportunity to make mistakes, it was you who went to the other side of evil, not me who pushed you there. If you hadn't fought for rights and caused heavy losses to the forces of light. I would never have been able to help you in any way. There are so many people planted internally. There is another opportunity later. I originally hoped that you could cooperate with us and become a powerful ally. As long as what you do is normal, I will not activate those spies. They will serve you like true believers and be your help, which means I helped you improve your strength. But you betrayed us and actually wanted to get rid of us. You failed to seize the two opportunities. Even the second Three times, just now, I gave you the last chance. I hope you can tell the truth. I also want to talk about feelings with you, but it is a pity that you have cut off our last trust. You lied to me. You Talking to Ditans was not about getting rid of our guild and annexing the forces of Philindil, but to unite with the forces of Philindil to eliminate our guild. You have betrayed us again and again and let us Very sad. Since you don’t throw away all love, righteousness, and kindness, then I won’t talk about it. Let’s follow normal procedures!”
"No!" Marilyn suddenly rushed in front of me and hugged my legs, crying: "Please, give me another chance. I promise...!"
I kicked Marilyn back to her seat. "Put away your guarantee, that thing is worthless. Your guarantee is worthless! I am a sentimental person. The 600 million I spent helped me get a large number of believers. They will bring back about 700 to 800 million In return. In this way, I will have a profit of one to two hundred million. However, that is because of the existence of you as a friend. Now you are no longer a friend. According to the consistent style of our guild, what is spent will be recovered ten times. I will drain the Temple of Light completely, and after recovering the profit of six billion crystal coins, the Temple of Light will completely disappear from this world."
"You can't do this." Marilyn tried to pounce on her again, but I kicked her out. This time the force was a little stronger and she flew directly out of the car.
Everyone in the team turned their heads, but miraculously. None of them moved or said anything. I got out of the carriage and kicked Marilyn down again as she just got up. "You are not as good as your sister. Although she is younger than you, she is a hundred times smarter than you. Do you know why I know you have arrived at the Dark Temple? Your sister Yuna told me."
Marilyn didn't listen to my words at all, but called the people around her in a panic. "What are you still doing? Come here and help me kill him."
The accompanying Templars came over together. I looked back at them: "Go back, no need to pretend. It's time!"
The Templars immediately saluted me, then retreated to their positions, allowing me to beat their former goddess. I laughed when I saw Marilyn's surprised look. "Are you shocked? Yes. These are all my people. Your sister Yuna is also one of ours. She has been to Isengard. In the name of helping you, she actually had a secret conversation with us. She knew You are not one to keep your promises, and she didn’t want to lose you as her sister, so she signed an agreement with us.”
"Did she betray me?" Marilyn shouted angrily.
I went up and slapped her in the face, causing blood and water to splash on the ground. "You crazy woman! Black Widow doesn't even have feelings for you. Yuna used herself to make a deal with us. She will become our most senior spy stationed in the Temple of Light, and the task is to do stupid things when you do it. Notify us when the time comes to stop you, and she will replace you as the goddess after you are captured. Do you know what the reward she wants is?"
"Remuneration? What kind of reward does she need for getting the position of a goddess?"
Snapped. I slapped Marilyn again. "You really have nothing to ask for! Are you an idiot? Your sister doesn't care about the position of a goddess at all. Besides, she is different from you. She is our spy. She knows that the Temple of Light is already an empty shell. . Under such circumstances, what is the meaning of the position of goddess? That position only has responsibilities and no rights. No one with a little bit of brain would want to sit in that position. Your sister wants to take on these responsibilities on your behalf to offset our Your anger. The only condition of her deal with us is that once you do something irreparable, she can't hurt you. You must be handed over to her intact and under house arrest. She is worried about you and paying for you. Everything. You actually suspected that she was taking your position! I really thought you were a pure and silly girl at the beginning! I didn’t expect you to be more vicious than me! "
"me……!"
"You will only be Yuna's sister from now on, and you will be nothing else. This time when you came out to see Ditans, Yuna already knew that you were going to do something wrong. Unexpectedly, I happened to be near your temple. She put I went to tell me about you. As a precautionary arrangement, the protectors in these teams are all spies that your sister has transferred, in order to secretly escort you to our place for house arrest. Although you are a goddess, What is powerful is your magic. We have so many close combatants, so don’t think about escaping or anything." After I finished speaking, I waved back. "Bring her up."
Marilyn was escorted into the car by four paladins, and the knights simply sat in the car and watched her closely. I'm too lazy to talk about benevolence, righteousness, and morality with a stupid guy like her, so I just ride Ye Ying and walk with the remaining knights.
Marilyn is just a relatively strong angel. Without rights she is nothing. Religion is a very magical thing. Gods do not necessarily need power, and they do not need to really exist. Gods do not exist in reality, but various religions are still flourishing. Games are nothing more than concretizing gods. So it doesn’t really matter whether there is someone like Marilyn. If a religious sect needs to use its main god to fight, it is not far from destruction.
We escorted Marilyn all the way towards Tianyu City. Not far away, the sound of horse hooves suddenly appeared behind us. Listen to the other party's voice very quickly. And there are a lot of them. To avoid accidents. I asked everyone to move closer to the roadside. This place is not far from the city and is already a main road. The road is very wide and there should be no obstructions.
Because we had a horse-drawn carriage in our team, we couldn't go very fast, and the other party quickly caught up with us. These people were all wearing knight armor. The riders are all high-end war horses, and some of them are Warcraft knights. Judging from the chaotic equipment, they are probably a team of players. The cavalry team of more than 300 people ran past us without paying any attention to us. After all, players rarely use carriages. When you see a carriage, you can probably identify it as an NPC team. Therefore, generally no one will pay attention to the team with passenger carriages, except of course the robbers.
After the first group of cavalry passed by, before we could reach the middle of the road, another group of cavalry rushed over from behind, this time with more people. There were about a thousand people, and some knights even had mages behind them. Behind this second team there were third and fourth teams of cavalry, and then it turned into a continuous cavalry brigade, galloping past us like a train. It looks like they are on their way, but there is only my Tianyu City in front of them, and there is no other place except that side. Are they going to Tianyu City? its not right! Tianyu City is not open to people from general guilds. Except for the players in the guild, only a few people from the guild who have obtained permission can pass through. I recognize the signs of these licensing guilds, and these people just now are obviously not from those guilds. So what were they doing there? Could it be that he was going to fight?
A knight came close to me and said, "Lord Ziri, should we go to the woods to take shelter? It looks like they are heading towards Tianyu City."
Even the NPCs can see it, so of course I can’t fail to see it. After thinking for a while, he nodded: "You guys go to the woods to take shelter first, and I'll check the situation first. Keep an eye on Marilyn, and don't let her run away."
"Yes." The NPC Templar saluted me and waved. The carriage team quickly turned onto a narrow animal path.
As soon as I pulled the reins, Ye Ying immediately started running, and in a few steps he was already on the top of the tree through the void. Standing on a high place and looking forward, I saw a vast cavalry troop heading towards Tianyu City ahead. But it reassures me. The cavalry did not fight under the city wall, but ran through the open gate. There were no fireworks in the city, so it was probably not a war. Then someone should have given the order to allow passage through the city gate.
"Ziri? What are you doing up there?" A voice suddenly appeared below me.
"Ashford?" I looked down and saw this guy Ashford standing on the edge of the road below me with a small group of people.
Let Ye Ying fall to the ground first, and then I asked curiously: "What's going on with these cavalry?"
"Huh? Don't you know?" Ashford was more surprised than me.
"Is there anything I need to know?"
Ashford immediately said: "Today, your guild's liaison officer suddenly came to me and told me that we need to call in a large number of cavalry. Whether it is players or NPCs, they all need cavalry. But you cannot use the mounts purchased from the system. If you are a player, you must It is to carry familiar mounts, and there is no limit on the number. The more the better, as long as the level is over 600, everyone can get ten crystal coins as long as they reach it. Three messages were sent to me in one morning, I was so 'forced' that I paid someone to go nationwide to promote it to gather so many people, and you didn't know it after doing it for a long time. Could it be that the liaison officer of your guild was playing a trick on me?"
"Probably not!"
"Don't do it! If you really played a trick on me, you have to be responsible for compensation. Those people came here because they heard that I was paid, and now they have gathered so many people and suddenly said that they were playing a trick. Then they won't tear me apart when they turn around. Already?"
"I don't think I'm kidding you. It's probably up to Rose and the others to make the decision. I just went up to see that the cavalry were entering the city. Tianyu City does not allow ordinary players to enter. Since they have entered, someone must have notified them to let them go. Yes, so I definitely won’t be playing tricks on you.”
"That's pretty much it." Ashford finally breathed a sigh of relief. He recruited all these cavalry, and we didn't come forward. If we don't admit it then, these knights will definitely come to settle accounts with him. Ashford pointed to the front: "Let's talk about it after we enter the city?"
"Okay." I whistled into the forest. "It's okay, everyone come out."
Ashford also felt strange when he saw a large group of cavalry running out with a carriage. "What's in the car? Why is it transported by horse-drawn carriage?"
"VIP."
"Important person? Could it be...?"
"Don't make random guesses. It's not what you think."
Ashford smiled evilly. "I thought you were hiding your beauty in the golden house outside! I heard that you Chinese men like to have sex after you get married."
"Damn, why are you so good at not hearing about it and only asking for gossip? Now, let me tell you seriously. Didn't the people who came tell you what they were going to do when they called the cavalry?"
Ashford shook his head. "Anyway, it was the liaison officer designated by your guild. He came here in the morning and asked me to summon the cavalry. I originally thought he wanted me to summon the cavalry within a few days, but who knew he actually gave me a request to arrive on the same day? I It hasn’t stopped in the morning, and my legs are broken!”
"Tch, if it's really us who summoned them, we will definitely give them benefits. Besides." I glanced at the cavalry behind Ashford. "You really go to great lengths to make extra money?"
"Haha! I am helping others and helping myself. You want people and I want money. Is it beneficial to both parties?"
Just talking about it, I arrived at Tianyu City. As soon as I entered the city, I found that all the cavalry were running along the road towards the center of the city, which should be the location of the transnational teleportation array. I saw a banner hanging above the city gate that read: "All the recruited cavalry go forward along the road and directly enter the teleportation array. There will be people over there to support you." The city is not much better than outside, with instructions everywhere. Road sign.
We followed the cavalry into the transnational teleportation array, but were automatically teleported out before we could choose a target. The teleportation array is set up as a one-way fixed-point teleportation. As long as someone goes up, it will automatically teleport people to the designated location. You are not allowed to choose the destination at all. As soon as we came out, we found ourselves standing on a grassland. At your feet is an unfamiliar altar, but it is very large.
"Don't stand still, all move forward. Pay attention to the signs in the sky." A huge voice kept echoing over the altar, reminding everyone to make room. With such a large number of cavalry pouring in at the same time, one can imagine how huge the number of people here is.
As soon as I came out, I knew that the entrance was not just the one in Tianyu City, because there were many NPCs and players with the guild's logo among the people coming out of the exit here, and there were actually black cavalry mixed in. The people here should be gathered from all over the world.
Who gave this order? Why are so many cavalry sent from all over the world to this prairie?
