Don’t call me evil god
Chapter 936 Breakthrough?
Chapter 936 Breakthrough?
Gray felt as if he had hit upon something as good as pie in the sky.
What he didn’t know was.
This double-act quarrel was actually directed at him!
Otherwise, why would Gale go to the trouble of communicating with his companions in the dwarven language, which he could roughly understand?
In the end, Gray suffered from his lack of education and slow thinking.
Gray dwarves are born with strong bodies and even have the outrageous property of being immune to magic, but these powerful talents come at a price.
That is, most of the gray dwarves are not very smart.
To say they are single threaded is a compliment.
The truth is, these guys are short-sighted, impatient, and don’t like to think. When they encounter problems, they like to use violence to solve them, unless the other party is more violent than themselves.
There have been so many caravans that ventured into the Deep Regions. If the gray dwarves were willing to trade normally with them, this place would have escaped poverty and become rich long ago, and not everyone here would be living in misery, with no wealth or savings at all.
However, their short-sightedness makes it impossible for them to understand what “playing the long game to catch a big fish” means, and it is difficult for them to understand what “win-win” means.
The same is true.
Gray could never imagine that all the gifts from fate actually had a price tag secretly marked on them.
From the very beginning, I was the unlucky guy who was ordered by Gail and his friends to bear the cost.
……
Let’s go back to an earlier time.
Under the pretext of going to a psychedelic smoking den for an experience.
Gail and Pete noticed something strange almost as they entered the building.
The two exchanged glances in tacit understanding.
The activity of the magic network here is seriously abnormal.
The arcane energy escaping was so strong that it caused them slight discomfort.
If we say that the Spirit Wing Wetlands were once caused by an overactive magic network, any spell model would be directly crushed and exploded by the surging arcane energy during construction.
Then, the interior of this unique building can be called an “enhanced version of Lingyi Wetland”!
What’s even more outrageous is.
They were completely unaware of this extremely active magic web from outside the building.
Pete looked around, pretending to take in the surroundings. His eyes rested on the wall for a moment, then moved away as if nothing had happened.
He found the problem.
“Magic Forbidden Stone!”
Pete immediately shared the intelligence he discovered in the group chat of the investigation team.
“They used magic-forbidden stones on the walls of the psychedelic opium den!”
“This thing has the effect of suppressing the approach of escaping arcane energy. No wonder I couldn’t detect any abnormalities outside!”
This opium den was built with magic-forbidden stones. As long as the shape and structure were right, it would be equivalent to a standard cage.
It confined the abnormally active magic web firmly inside the building!
“Gray dwarves… these idiots are naturally immune to magic. They can’t sense the existence of arcane energy at all, so it’s probably difficult for them to discover the secrets inside this opium den.”
When he first discovered the Gospel, Pete had only 3% suspicion of the dark elves who made and sold it.
So, at this time, the proportion of suspicion has risen to 7%.
If the purpose was simply to make the gray dwarves dependent on and addicted to the bosom, there would be no need to deliberately build such a building.
Although absorbing the gospel will cause fluctuations and activity in the magic net, as long as it is not deliberately restricted, this activity will soon be eliminated and weakened by the endless magic net.
The psychedelic opium den is equivalent to a circle of barriers surrounding the magic network dimension, allowing entry but not exit, and artificially accumulating a large amount of extremely active arcane energy.
Pete smelled a conspiracy.
“What are they going to do?”
In the group chat, the investigation team brainstormed and posted all kinds of ideas:
“Afraid of being discovered?”
“Are you planning to do something big? Take advantage of the highly active arcane energy here and find a suitable opportunity to blow up the entire Limoen settlement?”
“If you really wanted to blow it up, you could have done it a long time ago. Didn’t Gray say that the dark elves have been selling the gospel for decades? Why wait until now?” Everyone talked at once, and each had his or her own understanding.
Until Miranda suddenly sent a message:
“Is it possible that there is some kind of prayer ceremony to the evil god that requires this kind of environment?”
“…”
There was silence in the group chat for a moment.
Then the information burst out one after another:
“Hey, hey, hey?”
“Wait wait wait wait!”
“It’s possible! It’s indeed possible!”
“Could it be that we have found the real owner right after we arrived? Could it be that the dark elves selling the gospel are from the Church of the Supreme Truth? They openly sell this thing to the gray dwarves, but in fact they use the environment created by it to secretly perform cult rituals?”
When it comes to the Church of the Supreme Truth and cult rituals.
Everyone immediately perked up.
What are they here for?
Except for Hugo who is obsessed with opening up new markets and snatching money from the big tycoon Carlon in Green Port, everyone else’s goals are the tasks assigned by Noven!
Investigate the deep areas and find the evil believers hiding there!
We have just arrived at the Limoen settlement, and there seems to be a breakthrough.
How could this not excite them?
The collective spirit was high and this reaction would have seemed a little unusual.
Thanks to the characteristics of the psychedelic opium den, everyone once again showed off their acting skills, pretending to be excited by the smell of the gospel.
Gale was responsible for negotiating with the dark elves and directly demanded the best service and the best treatment here.
They had almost no pressure on budget for this investigation.
Thanks to King Kenreddin’s commission, Pete, Miranda and Lancelot all received his personal promise.
As long as the investigation yields sufficient results, the royal family will find a way to reimburse them for the costs they have incurred for their operations in the Deep Area during this period!
There is shining gold paving the way.
The dark elf was naturally very enthusiastic and smiled from ear to ear. He led everyone into a private room. Before leaving, he even winked at Dolan, who was in charge of “checkout”, as if we would see each other later.
……
Enter the smoking den with the excuse of experiencing the gospel.
Even if it is just for show, there must be people who absorb some gospel to make their “actions” real.
But believers are not very willing to really get involved and try to get involved in the gospel.
As for the physical injuries, at most they can save their next life, which makes them dare to self-destruct with a bomb in their hands without hesitation.
But according to the inferences made by Pete and Gale, the effect of the gospel can affect the spirit, or in other words, the soul!
The addiction to magic will not disappear just because the caster changes his body.
It’s no big deal to experience it once.
If you develop a moderate addiction to magic like the gray dwarves, you will be in big trouble!
No one is willing to try it, but they need to create the illusion that they have experienced the gospel.
Then you have to find someone who is willing to take it.
then.
Gray immediately became the most suitable candidate.
When slaves serve between psychedelics and deliver the exquisite gospel.
Everyone started to coax and deceive again!
