Chapter 1408: Back Against the Big Tree to Protect Yourself From the Rain
"Holy Inquisition?" Mi Huaji repeated it doubtfully at first. The name seemed familiar, and then an idea suddenly flashed in his mind, and he suddenly thought about it.
"No wonder there are people from the Holy Vatican in the team. It turns out they are troops from the Holy Inquisition!" Mi Huaji suddenly realized.
The Holy Inquisition is an institution jointly established by the Carlo Empire and the Holy See to target necromancers. When other institutions or organizations are established, they will be decorated with lights and firecrackers, for fear that others will not know about it. However, since the establishment of the Holy Inquisition, there has been no movement, as if it had never appeared.
If it just disappears like this, no one will remember it. There are quite a few institutions established by this kind of country that make a big splash but don't do much, and many of them do nothing.
Either it is a face-saving project, specially designed to deal with the people above, or it is to arrange some relatives for the upper-class people to receive money for retirement. Some people even secretly hide their lovers here.
But this Holy Inquisition is different. There have been several special events in the Carlo Empire, such as some mysterious incidents, incidents such as hauntings, bizarre family annihilations, and even massacres. Basically, they were solved by the Holy Inquisition. .
The Holy Inquisition is a completely independent department from the Carlo Empire's military system. As long as they come forward, no troops have the right to interfere. They must maintain absolute silence about the incident and must not leak anything.
After all, there is no airtight wall in the world, especially when the common people's favorite thing to do after dinner is to talk about all kinds of rumors, so the reputation of the Holy Inquisition was so inexplicably gained. .
In addition, the divine dragon belonging to the Holy Inquisition has been seen but not seen, can only be heard but disappeared, and ordinary people cannot contact it at all. Therefore, there are more and more rumors about the Holy Inquisition, and they are becoming more and more outrageous. Anyway, as long as When it comes to the Holy Inquisition, everyone's first impression is that it is mysterious, powerful and terrifying.
"Is there anything else?" Zhao Tianlong raised his head and glanced at Mi Huaji, and asked calmly.
"We want..."
"Your Majesty the King, we are fine. The main reason we are here this time is to thank you for your timely action and saving us from the fire and water. We really can't hold it in our hearts, so we came to disturb you. If I have caused any offense, please forgive me." Mi Huaji still wanted to speak, but the elder gently pulled his sleeve and snatched the conversation away.
"If that's the case, then stand down! I don't want people from various sects and gangs to come over and thank me one by one!" Zhao Tianlong glanced at the great elder, and then continued to stare at the paintings on his desk. hTTpS://
"Don't worry, Your Majesty the King, we came quietly and no one noticed, and we won't let other sect gangs come to disturb you again." The First Elder said respectfully.
Zhao Tianlong didn't speak anymore, his eyes never left the painting on the table, and then he waved his hands to Mi Huaji and the elder, indicating that they could leave.
Mi Huaji wanted to continue to say something, but the elder tugged at the corner of his clothes again, signaling him not to speak with his eyes.
Although Mi Huaji didn't understand why the great elder stopped him from speaking twice, he believed that the great elder would not harm him, so he suppressed his doubts and bowed out with the great elder.
After the two people left, Zhao Tianlong raised his head and said to himself, "The opportunity has been given to you, and the rest is up to you."
After saying that, Zhao Tianlong threw the brush away, and the brush landed firmly on the pen holder. The tip of the brush was as white as snow, and the ink on the tip of the brush had disappeared...
"Great Elder, what do you mean by stopping me from talking just now? We were obviously here to say goodbye, so why did you change your mind when we got here?" Mi Huaji grabbed the Great Elder and asked in confusion.
"Sect Master, haven't you seen the painting he has been looking at?" the great elder asked.
"I see, although the painting is good and has everyone's style, it also proves that His Majesty the King is very good at painting. What does it have to do with us leaving?" Mi Huaji frowned slightly.
"Didn't you see the content in the painting?" The great elder narrowed his eyes and asked softly.
"Content? Isn't it just a big tree with thick branches and leaves? A group of people are sitting, lying, leaning or leaning within the scope of the big tree, and a group of people are lying outside the scope of the big tree? Is there any other way to say this? ?" Mi Huaji didn't have an in-depth understanding of painting. After thinking about it, he still didn't understand the meaning.
"What you said is correct, but have you noticed that none of the people in that painting are ordinary traffickers and pawns? Everyone is carrying a weapon. Those outside the big tree seem to be lying on the ground to rest. But it is full of death energy, so it must be a corpse." The great elder said in a deep voice.
"A body full of death energy? Great Elder, what you are saying is a bit too mysterious, isn't it? This is just an ordinary painting after all, how can you feel the death energy from those people?" Mi Huaji shook his head, feeling great The elder is a little too neurotic.
The great elder waved his hand, "I won't talk to you about the problem of death. Have you seen that the painting is actually a rainy day?"
Mi Huaji pondered for a moment and recalled it carefully. He just glanced at it and didn't look at it particularly seriously, so he said with some uncertainty: "Maybe it is!"
"There are obviously so many free spaces under the big tree. Why do those people prefer to lie on the muddy ground to rest on rainy days instead of taking shelter under the big tree? Even if they all have extraordinary strength, no one should be willing. Are you going to lie down in the mud and rest on a rainy day?" the great elder asked.
"Okay, even if they are dead bodies, even if they are corpses, what does that have to do with us?" Mi Huaji still didn't understand what the great elder meant.
"Do you want to hide under a tree from the rain, or lie on the ground and soak in the rain?" the elder asked.
"I...hiss..." Mi Huaji took a breath of cold air.
As the leader of the Wanhua Sect, Mi Huaji is naturally not stupid, but he just got into trouble for a while. At this time, he finally reacted after hearing the great elder's reminder.
"That shouldn't happen, right? That's just a painting! Zhao Tianlong is the king of the Carlo Empire after all. If he really dares to do this, wouldn't he be no different from those necromancers?" Mi Huaji still said I don't want to believe that Zhao Tianlong would do this.
"He may not be able to deal with us legitimately, but he can kill people with a borrowed knife! If he asks us to deal with the undead magician, will you go? If not, then you will be suspected of having an affair with the undead magician, but if Go ahead, that's like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth! Alas!" the great elder sighed.
"This kind of thing is outrageous in the world! If he really dares to raise a butcher's knife against the sects and gangs in Jianghu who don't obey him, isn't he afraid that the sects and gangs in Jianghu will set off a wave of resistance in the Carlo Empire?" Although Mi What Hua Ji said was reasonable, but his voice was a little weak.
It is possible that the Beast King would not do this, but it is hard to say for Zhao Tianlong. The high concentration of power made Zhao Tianlong extremely powerful in the Carlo Empire. Otherwise, he would not have been able to send so many troops to many places at the same time and save so many sect gangs in such a short period of time.
"Resist? Now that everyone can't protect themselves, who can still resist? Either choose to surrender to the Carlo Empire or choose to surrender to the undead. If you were asked to choose, what would you choose?" The great elder looked at Mi Huaji helplessly. , seemingly two answers, are actually no different from one.
"Isn't there a third option?" Mi Huaji frowned.
"It can't be said that it's not possible. We can find an opportunity to escape secretly with the people from the sect, and then disappear so that no one can find us. But do you think it is possible? If our sect only has thirty or fifty people, it may still be possible. There are thousands of people in our sect, and it is impossible to be completely silent just by eating, drinking, and eating." The great elder shook his head helplessly.
When Wanhua Sect had a headache, Li Zhenbang also had a headache. He thought he could come to Wanhua Sect to get some bargains, but he didn't expect that after so much effort, it turned out to be extremely futile.
Li Zhenbang did not know that the members of the Wanhua Sect were actually taken away by the Carlo Empire, but he did not think that the Wanhua Sect was exterminated.
If the Wanhua Sect was wiped out, the buildings would not be so well preserved, and at least three feet of the ground would have to be dug up. And judging from the current situation of Wanhua Sect, they may have been pressed for time when they left, but they were not panicked.
Li Zhenbang found some secret rooms from the empty Wanhua Sect, but the secret rooms were almost equally empty. Even if some things were left behind, they were only things that were not valuable and difficult to take away. None of the valuable things that were easy to take away were left behind.
There was almost no gain in Wanhua Sect, not only in terms of financial gain, but also in terms of information.
Li Zhenbang also tried to contact Bai Shangwu of the Poison Sect, but he didn't know what was going on with the Wanhua Sect. The Poison Sect had not yet received the news from here.
Li Zhenbang hesitated again and again and did not tell Bai Shangwu about the undead. Bai Shangwu would definitely know about it sooner or later. But if he tells Bai Shangwu and lets Bai Shangwu know the news before the Poison Sect, no one knows whether it will affect Bai Shangwu or what will happen next.
After the Wanhua Sect failed, Li Zhenbang decided to try his luck in the Divine Blessing Alliance. He wanted to see if he could use this undead holy warrior to gain some benefits for himself.
However, before handing over the undead holy warriors, Li Zhenbang decided to dig some more to see if he could dig out some more useful information.
Li Zhenbang did not believe that the Holy See would give him a copy of the information obtained from the Undead Holy Warriors, at least it would definitely not be free, just like he would not give them the Undead Holy Warriors for free.
"Holy Son, you are finally here!" As soon as Li Zhenbang entered the acquired bag, the Undead Holy Warrior shouted excitedly...
Due to various problems, the address has been changed. Please save the new address to avoid getting lost.
