Invincible Chapter 488

Kane admits the enemy in this encounter did a good job.

Not only did the trick of looting people play a new trick, but the timing was also well chosen.

Night is not a problem, but dark clouds and heavy rain are really problems.

Those who can cast spells normally in such weather, the dark druid branch can't do it, only the storm walker can do it.

When Ontology created its sub-incarnation, it reduced the diversity of the technical system it mastered. Usually, it does not feel that it is inconvenient when it encounters such a situation that requires high technical background.

People are missing here, but it may also be a cover.

"I guess the other party has already completed intelligence control, and even completed full pre-preparation with the help of the inner ghost. Baroness Peyton, it is unlucky."

"Then, is it still too late to investigate people in batches?" Lawrence also knew that there was an insider, otherwise, with Cynthia's reclusive personality, it would not be easy to get Amway.

"Check it out, although it will take a little effort, but after sifting through it, there should be some clues."

Lawrence was very cooperative in this matter. First of all, Kane and his son already had a quasi-master-student relationship, and he really wanted to further strengthen this relationship.

Secondly, the witch came to his house, and she taught her to be bad if she said that she was bad, and she would rob people if she said that she was plundering.

So the housekeeper and the captain of the guard were called, and martial law was implemented, not only in his own mansion, but also in the entire Fort Gorn. There may be a door-to-door investigation.

At the same time, Kane is using his expertise to prepare Veritaserum.

Gowan's menservants brought soil in wooden pots, and Kane planted seeds from pouches.

These plant seeds were all obtained from his transactions with the Holy Church. There are more than a thousand types in total, that is, a national-level behemoth like the Holy Church. Another organization may not have this reserve.

Backed by a big tree to enjoy the shade, with the Holy Cult, the most powerful local snake in the Ekara continent, as the quasi-leading party, Kane completed the collection of general species very efficiently, and he, the great druid, began to change from this. Well deserved.

Of course, the Holy Cult did not lose money. From their own point of view, it is benefiting the present and making great achievements in the future, making a lot of money.

Because the most important technology Kane uses to deal with them is energy separation technology.

To be specific, it is like processing crude oil, separating negative spiritual energy from elemental energy.

This technology means that there is a solution to the dark forces that have plagued the Holy Church for a long time.

In addition, it is now going to be called evil energy, which is according to Kane, who has demonstrated his unparalleled authority in this regard.

For example, in the past, facing the gates of the abyss, the fissures of the abyss, and even monsters and demons using evil energy, the Holy Cult could only use extraordinary strength to fight it.

But now it can be resolved through equipment. After separation, the negative spiritual energy, simply put, is the energy that makes the soul form, such as resentment and hatred, can be concentrated and purified. While the rest is scattered in nature, it can be easily digested by the natural circulation system.

The big rivers are full of water and the small rivers are full. If there are more such separation facilities, the concentration of extraordinary energy will increase, especially in the area where the equipment is installed.

And these devices are naturally erected in areas with evil energy eruptions such as abyssal fissures.

In this way, it will not only change the local extraordinary environment, but also make it easier to collect extraordinary power. It will only be a matter of time before the evil place where demons are rampant is gradually transformed into a home field suitable for the existence of the holy religion.

Of course, it's actually not that simple.

The problem of the holy religion is first of all a human problem, followed by a system problem, and then a problem of the environment and other aspects.

Anyway, in Kane's view, with this technology, the Holy Cult is barely hanging on to his life. The name of this life is "seemingly an illusion of hope". For it, the various factions of the Holy Cult can tolerate it more each other for a while,

Instead of a big wave rushing over, just take advantage of the situation to spread the stall.

This is not Kane's pessimism, but a speculation made after understanding the situation of the Holy Church from different angles.

Mountaintopism, self-preservation, a big setback, and immediately collapse, are all ideas of "whoever falls in love with the other, anyway, I can't, I have to preserve my strength, so that I can survive better in the chaos", and the result is Those who were defeated one by one, those who surrendered with their knees softened, or those who tried to die.

Now that there is a shot in the arm of the evil energy separation technology, just for the technical value, it can also make the Holy Cult last for a while.

The upper echelons of the Holy Cult, at least the members of the Moon Master Council, generally hope that the sect can tide over the difficulties. They themselves are already the top dignitaries, no matter how hard they try, it will be difficult for them to have a power comparable to what they have now.

In the past, I was unable to solve the most fundamental problems, and could only watch the holy religion slipping into the abyss step by step. Now, it is like an old farmer who has obtained a golden kela. The purpose is to restore the confidence of the people below.

The group of people in the Lunar Lord Council can be said to be qualified politicians. They naturally know that for the current holy religion, nothing is more precious than hope.

Kane also agrees with this statement. With hope, people are willing to endure, work hard, and even sacrifice. Many people like Lawrence and Fort Gorn actively cooperated with him precisely because they had hope in their hearts. The castle lord issued strict orders, and the people endured.

Under the catalysis of extraordinary power, the rapid growth of plants visible to the naked eye, combined with some materials from Gao Enbao, the preparation of veritaserum was quickly completed.

The efficacy is incomparable to the veritaserum in the hp world, and there are some uncomfortable side effects. But in Fort Gorn, where the people at the bottom lack human rights, these are trivial matters.

As the investigation unfolded, the inner ghost surfaced.

The coachman, maid, and cook can use their positions to contact the master, and at the same time communicate with the outside world. It must be such a relationship chain to be able to develop.

The ghost was caught, but Lawrence couldn't be happier.

All the people caught were small characters, and more importantly, the spearhead was now directed at his wife Elsa. Before, he thought that Elsa was also a meat ticket, but now there is another possibility. Elsa is the mastermind and executor.

Now missing in the mansion are 5 people, Elsa, Cynthia, Amanda, and Elsa's personal maid Lily, and the gardener Nathan.

Lawrence was terrified, while Kane was thinking about an important question, if Elsa was the mastermind of everything, why didn't he discover it early?

Cynthia found a reason not to show up and have dinner with Kane and Amanda because Lawrence didn't like this daughter and was worried that she would be dull and withdrawn to salute on important occasions.

But Elsa, as the hostess, was present, and soon had a hot chat with Amanda. This time there was an event inviting him to visit the mansion.

However, after more than an hour of the dinner, Elsa was less than 3 meters away from him, and he failed to notice anything unusual about her. This is really a slap in the face.

"Have you received some kind of special blessing?" Kane easily connected the situation in front of him with the situation of the charmed townspeople in Red Maple Castle that Lawrence mentioned to him.

Although the external manifestations may vary greatly, the core they represent is unified, and they are all things that cannot be done under normal circumstances.

To put it more directly, if you want to hide from him, you can only use a higher level of divine power than him.

Eugen has already said that there is no god in this world, even Nidhogg is restrained by Eugen to a certain extent, and dare not let go of his hands and feet.

Coupled with the restrictions of the laws of the world itself, the avatars sent by Ned Hogg can only be of the same grade as his Holy Spirit, and at worst, the family has richer wealth and stronger strength.

But even if the opponent has a higher probability of defeating him head-on right now, he still can't play tricks in front of his eyes without him noticing.

Then there is only one possibility left in the end, the sacred artifact left by the god who once existed.

In fact, there is another possibility, that is, although Elsa is the main messenger, she is not a witch at all.

This is probably a loophole in Kane's thinking. It is hard for him to imagine a mortal who is used to "talking and laughing with great scholars, and dealing with no white people".

In fact, even if it is a mortal who occupies the home field and is fully prepared, there is still a chance of winning, even if it is only a round, it is still a win.

Kane also has the problem of taking things for granted, just like bookworms who read too many online novels, they always swear that a certain author has written the beginning, and he will know the end.

Indeed, most of them can be expected, there is nothing new under the sun, but there are also those who have a clear mind and deserve to be slapped in the face, and that is also crackling.

This time, Kane opened his mind and decided that Elsa had the blessing of the artifact, so he could only roll his arms and end in person.

Those wizards who graduated from the crash course under his command are not skilled enough. They can be regarded as typical spell-casting savages. They are mainly good at piupiupiu, which has nothing to do with knowledge and experience.

And he went off in person, mainly referring to a comprehensive inspection of the facility.

The witch's sorcery is very dependent on foreign objects, and can be roughly divided into two types: potions and magic tools, and most of the sorcery is similar to the spells of the curse system, which requires mediums and rituals, and these will be left behind. under the trace.

What Kane wants to do is to know this kind of secret altar, and through careful observation, get more information.

More than 200 rooms, carefully inspected one by one, and casually calculated, had to be delayed until after midnight to complete.

Kane pulled down without any hesitation and began to operate.

Perhaps for some people, doing so is simply wasting the most precious time.

But Kane believes that don't be a giant of thinking and a dwarf of action. If there is no good plan or feasible direction, then start doing it first, the original kind.

Although this method is stupid, it often has a higher probability of being rewarded.

When Kane made the ward rounds, Fort Gorn was also conducting ward rounds, not only the militiamen from Fort Gorn, but also Kane's Blood Banner Guards and War Witches participated.

Kane pointed out very bluntly, "Since your inner house has been infiltrated so badly, your guards must also have ghosts, so our investigation may be more stringent and less human."

The so-called strictness refers to the people who are investigated, and they are also the targets of the investigation.

The inhuman part is that once it starts, no excuses are allowed to leave the team.

In order to ensure this, not only must they monitor each other, but also the Eye of Sauron arranged by Kane's war witches.

After checking an area, it will be sealed off, and no one is allowed to go out or enter. Once found, they will be arrested immediately.

Relying on this method, not only the lurkers were caught, but also more than 200 black households were discovered.

When Lawrence found out, he was disgraced. The total population under his rule was less than 5,000, and there were more than 200 unidentified people among them. The management loopholes were huge. One can imagine that, thanks to his usual self-proclaimed Fort Gorn As stable as a barrel, just these black households, if they sincerely sabotage, they can make him burn out.

However, Kane was dissatisfied. Neither the Gowan's mansion nor Fort Gowan could find the favorable evidence he wanted most that could support his inference.

Of course, not for nothing.

A bunch of crude instruments, ceremonial supplies, medicinal herbs, etc., are just the surface, and behind this is the power of death from the dark department.

Kane was not surprised by this discovery.

Any extraordinary combat role corresponds to a main extraordinary energy.

To briefly explain what the power of death is, it is actually a concept, the underworld.

The underworld of this world is in a very primitive state, there is no hell, no reincarnation of the six realms, no Fengdu City, there is only one, and that is the habitat of the soul.

Soul inhabitation corresponds to settlements, not even tribes. Tribes already have considerable organization and internal and external divisions. There are no settlements. Settlements are like camping spots. People pull RVs to live for a period of time. It is very free, even if there are those who maintain the basic order, they all work spontaneously and consciously, and they are not fixed positions. There is no real manager in this model.

It is precisely because of this disorder and disorder that it is difficult for the souls of Ekara to rest in peace.

And witches, starting from extraordinary inspiration, travel with consciousness, communicate with spirit bodies, and then use the power of soul and soul habitat as resources.

Therefore, the witches in this world are only superficial, and the real core can be understood as apprentices of the god of death. Among the various factions of witches in the heavens and myriad worlds, they are relatively powerful.

After making such a discovery, Kane realized that the witches were mostly attracted by his dark and destructive power, after all, they were different manifestations of the same power.

If this is the case, then it is not whether he wants to provoke the other party, but whether the other party is willing to let him go.
