Chapter 283 Changes in the Situation

In the second week after the end of the defensive battle, the first batch of operators sent by the Military Security Intelligence Bureau began to return to the territory. intelligence.

Facts have proved that these people who have been at the bottom of society from the very beginning and are used to dealing with all kinds of three religions and nine streams are really talents in collecting intelligence-although they do not have the ability of the Royal Shadow Guard, but they have more cunning and intelligence. Small tricks, in some dark corners, their cunning tricks are even more effective than the mortal power of the Royal Shadow Guard.

In the study room of the lord’s mansion, Gao Wen listened to Amber reporting information to him—it’s embarrassing to say, the cultural education of the first phase of operators has not ended, and a considerable number of operators can’t even read or write at all or can only do limited work. Read and write, so they use all kinds of bizarre passwords, memorization and even oral transmission methods of gutter mice to transmit information. Although this messy transmission method is more in line with Gawain's "confidentiality" requirements, it needs to be sorted out in advance by Amber. some time. It is precisely because of the addition of such a job content that Amber now looks more and more like a serious intelligence chief - at least she knows how to go to the Military Intelligence Bureau to show up and do something serious.

"Our caravan is spreading throughout the southern border, the trade routes have been opened, and the merchants themselves are good at spreading news. This aspect is the same as you planned," Amber solemnly recounted the scar-faced Anton and others in various parts of the southern border. According to the news, "In addition, a group of traders recently went to the East Territory-Patrick seems to want to buy the potion into the territory of the Loren family."

"That Mr. Patrick should never have been an advisor to the viscount. His business acumen and courage are rare talents. It was also my instructive to promote the alchemy potion to the east," Gawain nodded. , "Anything else new?"

"There are two things I think...a little concern," Amber frowned, showing a rare serious look, "First, the activities of the Society for the End of Everything and the Eternal Sleeper cultists seem to be happening all over the southern border. More, and some businessmen from the central region also brought news, there are also shadows of cultists in the Holy Spirit Plain, the western part of the kingdom and even the northern region. Now the lords all over the kingdom are trying to find ways to strangle their own territory cult power."

"The End of Everything and the Eternal Sleeper..." Gawain blinked, "Ah, after the winter they didn't show up much near Cecil Land, I almost thought those guys had quieted down... I didn't expect them to be there. Are other places more active?"

"Yes, more active,

It's like something big is going to happen," Amber shook his head, "and the second thing is also related to them-due to the intensified evil deeds of cultists everywhere, the Church of the Holy Light has also become very active recently, and many places have become very active. The Church of the Holy Light has increased the frequency of sending out combat priests and paladins, and more and more priests are helping local lords to solve the problem of the spread of cults. "

"This seems to be their job," Gawain said unhurriedly, "The Holy Light is a natural nemesis for all kinds of negative forces. When evil forces spread, the priests of the Church of the Holy Light will always be rush to the front."

"Of course it's fine if they're just running around to crack down on the cultists, but the key is a saying that's been spreading in the west recently," Amber said with a "God of Light is going to do something", "because the holy The light force is always the fastest and the most effective when fighting against cultists, so dissatisfaction with other sects is getting more and more serious - especially the blood god sect and the shadow sect are not good at fighting evil. , and the Church, which has a slightly negative power attribute, are in an increasingly embarrassing situation. Anton and the others heard rumors near the county of Hossman to the west, saying that the gods of many sects cannot deal with the fallen at all. Only the God of Light can protect mortals wholeheartedly..."

Gawain's brows slowly wrinkled: "Is this kind of saying spread widely?"

"Currently it is only spread in the counties of Hosman, but as soon as the winter ends and business travel increases, the spread of the news will immediately increase. As long as the activities of the cultists remain during this period, the Church of the Holy Light and other sects will If the situation doesn't change much, then sooner or later this kind of argument will become mainstream."

Gawain nodded: "Yeah... This kind of news always spreads the fastest... Can you find out the source of this statement?"

"It seems to be self-generated by the people. After all, the facts are there. All sects except the Holy Light Church will react half a beat when facing the threat of cultists," Amber shook his head, "But as the goddess of shadows God's choice, I just think the Holy Light Church is going to do something..."

"You are preconceived--" Gawain glanced at the half-elf who has always claimed to be chosen by God, "but I also think the Church of the Holy Light is going to make trouble."

Amber stared: "Aren't you the same as me!"

"Don't make trouble, I'm not God's choice," Gawain waved his hand and immediately changed the subject, "These things shouldn't affect our territory."

"It shouldn't matter," Amber nodded, "We have a Holy Light priest on our territory, and it's still that kind of painting style - I'm not worried at all that he uses Holy Light to brainwash everyone, I'm just worried that one day there will be A missionary from the Church of God of War was beaten by Wright for a disagreement..."

"In short, be vigilant, you can't help but take the changes in the outside world seriously. If the Church of the Holy Light or the cultists really want to do something, they won't just put Cecil aside... By the way, do it in the first phase. How about the performance of the staff in the outside activities? I remember that you seem to have set an assessment project for them..."

When Amber heard this, her brows lit up: "If you don't tell me, I forgot, those guys really deserve to be the seedlings that I was optimistic about back then. They are all good players when they go out to work. I gave them 80 per person. Silver coins are used as operational funds, and there are still more than 90 left for the least return..."

Gawain heard that the first half was nothing, and when he heard the last half, he almost spit out all the tea in his mouth: "Ha!?"

"The most powerful is Jibry. She pretended to be a magic apprentice sent by her mentor to find gifted children. She sneaked into Carroll to cheat food and drink for several days. If she didn't remember the task at the end, she was afraid that she wouldn't want to get the card. The only son of Viscount Lore was fooled..."

"Fuck!"

"The guy 'Quick Legs' almost became the bodyguard of the local lord. In order to get the target out of the prison, he sneaked into the soldiers guarding the prison, and then accidentally behaved too well..."

"emmmmm...any more?"

"Anton contacted more than a dozen pharmacy merchants who wanted to join Cecil in the Earl of Hossman. If you think it's appropriate, I'll turn this over to Patrick..."

Gao Wen: "..."

Facts have proved that the gang of horses under Amber are really Crouching Tigers, Hidden Dragons. Although the training they received in Cecil Land and the duke certification documents they carried also greatly helped them in their actions, they were the only ones. The idea of ​​​​making things happen along the way, but training can't come out, that's all talent...

But while lamenting the talents of those people, Gawain couldn't hold back a little bit of worry in his heart: "They won't do things too much, but they will be too loud to expose them, right? You should know that the officers of the Military Intelligence Agency The most important thing is their own privacy, if they are too active and standing in front of the stage, it will be a bad thing."

"Don't worry, those guys certainly know this," Amber is really not worried about this, "First, they all act strictly according to their disguised roles, and do not do anything that is not in line with their 'roles', Even if someone pays attention, they will only be more convinced of the fake identities they use. Secondly, those guys didn't forget the 'tail sweep' I taught them when they acted. They appeared at the destination in a reasonable way, and in a reasonable way The way to leave, will never cause suspicion, and finally - you think that every lord and their advisors and scholars are the same as you? Those guys are very slow, and they will not pay attention to the things that happen among the commoners. , in addition to caring about their titles and property, anything the commoners do is 'nothing to care about' in the eyes of the traditional aristocrats. How can it be the same as your side, with a complete household registration from top to bottom system, and strict personnel management, even if there is one more person on the territory, they can report to the Government Affairs Office on the same day..."

When Amber said this, Gawain also felt that it was true—in this era, besides Cecil Land, where else could there be a so-called personnel control and registration system? The lords don't even know how many people they have under their command, let alone the various concepts of spy and counter-espionage, infiltration and reverse osmosis that have been played out on Earth. Although there are spies, intelligence work, and aristocratic eyes and ears in this era, these things are either still primitive and simple, or they are just a "competition" between the aristocratic class and the aristocratic class. No one has ever considered going from the bottom to the top. If it weren't for the three-dimensional intelligence work of the Southern Region, how could all the spies sent to Cecil Land by nobles of all sizes in the southern region were exposed so easily?

"This is very good, the first result of the MIIA is quite good," Gawain smiled and leaned back in his chair comfortably, "This is your credit, so..."

"Give me an extra six or seven days' wages, and by the way, give me that bottle of Pork in your cellar, and then give me a vacation or something..."

Gawain stared at this half-elf, always feeling that this guy's shameless ability to climb down the pole has made a big leap forward. He hasn't finished his words of encouragement yet, Amber has already made a list of rewards... …

I'm afraid it wasn't listed before I came to report the work...

At the same time, in the ancient underground palace far away from Cecil's territory, another group of people was also paying attention to the changes in the situation.

They wore priest robes with certain religious symbols removed, and stood in the assembly hall of the underground palace. The proliferating flesh or plant tissue could be seen everywhere in the underground palace. However, these believers who had long been twisted in body and mind were accustomed to the strange and terrifying atmosphere here.

After a short silence, a woman suddenly walked into the hall. She was wearing a green priest's robe, with a beautiful face and a bumpy upper body. However, on the hem of her priest's robe, there was a pile of wriggling, People felt strange and inexplicable roots and vines supporting her forward.

The woman glanced at the dreary scene, and said slightly sarcastically: "Gentlemen, has your discussion not concluded yet?"

A priest of the death of all things said dissatisfiedly: "Master Bertila, you are late."

"It doesn't matter, it was just a useless discussion before you anyway," Bertila smiled lightly and walked to her position carelessly, "It's just to explain... the Ansu-Typhon war we've worked so hard to start. , is about to come to nothing, isn't it?

"Gentlemen, accept the facts...

"In the wasteland, there are changes that we didn't expect..."
