Chapter 48: A Gathering of the Evil Faction
"Where is Vic Fowler?" Winnie Berendt asked.
"We broke up," Emma murmured. "I don't know where he is. It wasn't until we broke up that I realized I hadn't even met his family."
"Who is your handler?"
"Elder 'Godzilla' of the Biological Alchemists."
"Besides you, how many people from the Free Alliance are there within Judgment?" Winnie Berendt pressed. "I don't know..." Emma mumbled.
Hearing this, Winnie Berendt was a little disappointed, but it was also within expectations. One-way contact and strict confidentiality are the most basic espionage ethics.
It's almost impossible to catch a bunch of people by arresting one spy.
But the information obtained today is enough. "She has been cognitively distorted," Winnie Berendt phrased it.
"She was taken to a gathering by the man named Vic Fowler, listening to the revelations of the gods on a bed cast in gold... That should be some kind of ritual, a ritual to corrupt orderly professions."
"As for whether the source of the corruption is the so-called gods or the golden bed, we don't know."
Zhao Chenghuang's expression was solemn: "The function of the golden bed should be the same as the Corruption Holy Grail in the Second District. It's a tool used by evil professions to control orderly professions."
The Corruption Holy Grail in the Second District is a rule-based item that is feared by all orderly professions. Even a genius like Demon Lord did not escape the fate of being a servant until he returned to The Way of the Extraordinary.
If the First District also possesses such an item, it means that the Free Alliance can stably create corruptors. Today's partner may be tomorrow's traitor, making it impossible to defend against. Revelations of the gods....
Catherine's mention of the revelations of the gods refers to this... Looking at it this way, Catherine also completed the corruption ritual on the golden bed!
Evil professions always have items that make people corrupt, while orderly professions don't have items that can make evil professions turn over a new leaf...
Zhang Yuanqing had a clearer understanding of the concept that evil can corrupt order. He has to find a way to destroy the golden bed, or snatch it. The best way is to lure the snake out of its hole and let the evil faction actively hold gatherings... But Tongtian Jiaozhu is an evil profession, and a deeply malicious one at that. In the eyes of the Free Alliance, even listening to the revelations of the gods would be afraid of polluting the gods....
As thoughts flickered in his mind, he heard Winnie Berendt ask, "Besides Carlyle's address, what other tasks did Godzilla assign you?"
Winnie Berendt's expression suddenly changed, and she explained to her confused subordinates, "Jody Berendt is my grandfather!"
Winnie's expression changed: "What is Godzilla's purpose?"
Emma murmured: "I don't know, but I suspect they are going to take action against Jody Berendt in the near future."
Winnie Berendt's killing intent gradually condensed, and she said coldly: "How do you contact Godzilla?"
"Use a virtual short number to dial his phone. The hidden meaning is: 'Chaos is the end of order!'" Emma said.
Winnie Berendt asked a few more questions. After confirming that Emma didn't know any more information, her eyes flashed with blue light, and arcs of electricity crackled. A thick pillar of lightning was born out of thin air and struck Emma. Emma's tall and fair body turned into fluttering ashes and fell on the floor of the office.
Tsk, decisive in killing! Zhang Yuanqing praised inwardly.
Winnie Berendt went straight back to her desk and said, "You guys go back first, I need some time alone."
Palace Master Zhisha didn't say a word, took Zhang Yuanqing's hand and left.
Zhao Chenghuang glanced at the two's hands, and sized up Palace Master Zhisha's back, frowning slightly.
He felt that Yuanshi had too many confidantes. He felt worried for Sun Miaomiao, his childhood sweetheart, and Guan Ya, who had camaraderie, but soon he dispelled these emotions.
Yuanshi will surely become a Dominator in the future, and a peak Dominator at that, and even has the hope of impacting Half-God. It is not uncommon for him to have many confidantes. His great-grandfather had many women. Every year's gathering had five generations under one roof, with a scale of three or four hundred people. He was already used to it. Secular morality and human laws are difficult to restrain these inhumanly divine powerhouses.
"I'll go wander around your office." Palace Master Zhisha held her lover's hand, skipping and jumping.
Please spare me... Zhang Yuanqing looked at Zhao Chenghuang and said, "Oh yeah, Little Zhao, do we have a mission this afternoon?" He blinked desperately, hinting frantically.
Zhao Chenghuang remained expressionless: "You remembered wrong, we don't have any missions."
Zhang Yuanqing hurriedly said, "Palace Master, let's go shopping."
Palace Master Zhisha curled the corners of her mouth, looking at him with a smile but saying nothing. In the afternoon, the announcement that the beast Haas had been hunted by the Five Elements Alliance support team was posted on the internal forum of Judgment by the official account of the New York County branch.
In an instant, the post became a hot topic of discussion in Judgment.
From the perspective of the various branches of Judgment, this group of support teams from New York County, were clearly foreigners, but they were arrogantly arrogant on the land of the Free Federation. They had successively injured two outstanding young men from the Mead family, which was simply a provocation to Judgment.
Even spiritual practitioners who hated the Mead family had to frown and criticize: "That's annoying, these foreigners are so arrogant." Unexpectedly, in just a few days, this group of arrogant foreigners killed the "beast Haas", a sixth-level peak Saint, the ninth strongest on the A-level wanted list of Judgment headquarters.
Each branch of Judgment has its own wanted list, just like each continent has its own laws. The beast Haas ranked fifth on the A-level wanted list in New York County, and ninth on the A-level wanted list at Judgment headquarters.
The top ten evil professions on the headquarters A-level wanted list are all top elites who have the hope of being promoted to Dominator, geniuses among geniuses. These kinds of people only suffer large-scale deaths in killing dungeons.
In the real world, they are like outlaws, so a great achievement like this, if it fell on a member of Judgment, they could be promoted on the spot.
"These guys are really capable, they actually killed a beast Haas, which reminds me of a saying in Huaguo: 'Evil people have their own evil people to grind.'"
"The Saints of New York County are so embarrassing. From the start of the war between the Merchant Guild and the Dionysus Club until now, the greatest credit has actually been done by people from the Five Elements Alliance."
"I've changed my view of this group of foreigners from the Five Elements Alliance. Although they are arrogant and hateful, they are actually very reliable as teammates."
"I really didn't expect that someone like the beast Haas would die." The Neptune Church, the Merchant Guild, the Goddess Association, and the various orderly organizations of the people in New York County successively received the news.
This intelligence caused quite a stir among the various organizations. The local spiritual practitioners immediately realized that the conflict had escalated again!
The evil faction sacrificed a peak Saint, and the Biological Alchemists will definitely go crazy with revenge. In the following time, there will probably be intense hunting among the Saints.
This level of war is enough to wipe out some weak folk organizations. Even large folk forces like the Anti-Black and White Alliance will suffer heavy losses and greatly weaken their vitality.
Although their hearts were full of worries, the Five Elements Alliance's support team successfully hunting the beast Haas still gave the orderly organizations in New York County a shot in the arm.
The official is still the official! Amidst the storms outside, the atmosphere in the Five Elements Alliance office area seemed normal, but it was actually strangely stiff.
"Ju Mang is my boyfriend. I heard he was on a business trip to New York County, so I chased him thousands of miles." Palace Master Zhisha ordered takeout, one for each transcendent practitioner.
The Musician profession is the Eastern version of the Eros profession. Although it is not as promiscuous as the Eros profession, it also has bonuses in terms of charm and physique, and is naturally able to win people's favor.
This girl, who called herself Chu Guaiguai, had a delicate and refined melon-shaped face, dressed in a very Mori-style way, like a pure white lotus flower, and her voice was soft. She was quickly accepted and liked by the transcendent practitioners of the Five Elements Alliance.
They felt that Executive Ju Mang's girlfriend was beautiful, had a sweet voice, and was a match made in heaven! Compared to the harmonious atmosphere among the transcendent practitioners, the Saints' expressions were strange, and they worked in silence, not even daring to breathe loudly.
Even the most reckless Hongjige chose to lie low! Guan Ya was already so angry in the office that her mentality had exploded. But she is Yuanshi Tianzun's girlfriend, what does Ju Mang have to do with her? Ju Mang's girlfriend has even less to do with her.
Palace Master Zhisha just knew that she wouldn't dare to show up and tear her apart, and deliberately disgusted her.
Yuan Ting drank hot coffee, holding a box of fried chicken, and scurried back to the Saints' office from the office area, praising, "Ju Mang, your girlfriend is really good, she has a good personality, and she's also beautiful and charming."
"Hey, why aren't you guys going out to eat fried chicken? What are you doing sitting here? She's your girlfriend who came from thousands of miles away, show some respect." He looked at the Saints who were pretending to be dead with dissatisfaction.
"Shut your mouth and eat your fried chicken!" Sun Miaomiao said through gritted teeth.
"Hey, Sun Miaomiao, aren't you happy?" Yuan Ting suspiciously examined her: "You have no reason to be unhappy."
"I, I'm happy, very happy..." Sun Miaomiao forced a smile.
Yuan Ting inexplicably smelled a gossip, and at the same time felt that he seemed to be excluded from a certain circle. This was his intuition cultivated by many years of practicing the Bagua technique. Just as he was about to ask in detail, he heard the voice of the transcendent assistant outside the office: "Executives, the leaders from the Supervision Department are here."
Zhang Yuanqing and others were relieved, got up and rushed out of the office. The leaders of the Supervision Department were here to send rewards. In the reception room, the Deputy Minister of the Supervision Department, Osido William, was sitting at the table with two assistants.
This level 7 Dominator was about fifty years old, with short brown-yellow hair, light green eyes, a square face, and slightly drooping corners of his mouth, looking both serious and strong.
Seeing the Saints of the Five Elements Alliance come over, he put a bank card on the table and said, "This is the cash reward that Minister Winnie applied for you, with a total amount of nine million Federal coins, to be distributed by yourselves."
Then, he took a form from his subordinates behind him and said, "This is a list of items and materials. You can choose three Saint-quality items and ten Saint-quality materials from it. It's still up to you to distribute them yourselves. According to normal procedures, the rewards will not be issued so quickly, usually in the following month, but the members of the Five Elements Alliance are not formal employees of Judgment, they belong to the characteristics of mercenaries. Mercenaries' money must be settled in cash, this is an international rule."
Zhang Wuqing and Tianxiaguihuo and others exchanged glances and smiled. With this reward, plus the spoils from last night, they can basically guarantee that each Saint will have an item. Plus the materials and cash rewards, this wave of the dead returning is a big harvest.
Sure enough, nothing makes money faster than war. After the Saints of the Five Elements Alliance finished reading the form and selected the materials and items, Deputy Minister William said, "The Execution Department has recently been investigating cocktails. It is said that there will be actions tonight. You have brought a lot of pressure to the Execution Department."
The Execution Department is specifically responsible for investigating and arresting evil professions.
The Five Elements Alliance's support team had just arrived in the Free Federation and had already made great contributions, undoubtedly slapping the Execution Department in the face.
"It's all for peace and order!" Zhang Yuanqing said in a deep voice.
Deputy Minister William nodded: "You guys keep a low profile these days, the Biological Alchemists will definitely retaliate." After speaking, he left the reception room with two subordinates.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Yuanqing personally escorted Palace Master Zhisha back to her apartment. He said with a serious expression: "A good green tea bitch shouldn't make men so embarrassed and distressed. Palace Master, I'm not talking about you, I'm just feeling emotional and sighing from the bottom of my heart."
Palace Master Zhisha said with a smile: "A fish pond owner who is good at raising fish shouldn't just stare at one fish to feed. Ju Mang, I'm not talking about you either, I'm just feeling emotional and sighing from the bottom of my heart."
Zhang Yuanqing cupped his hands and admitted defeat. After leaving the apartment, he took out his spare mobile phone, turned it on, and checked the information.
One missed call, one unread message.
He opened the message: [Catherine: There's a private gathering tonight, at ten o'clock, same place, 60 Hamburg Street, Queens District!]
