Chapter 52 The End Is Coming (Part 2)
"The Elrich brothers are already in jail, but they were not arrested by the Anti-Suppression Bureau for privately studying invisible arts. It was just an ordinary crime...but there may be a turning point in this matter."
Gino Wales murmured in his heart, "If the leader takes action, he might be able to rescue the Elrich brothers from prison."
"It's better to tell the leader the news first, and let him decide how to proceed with the follow-up work."
As the deputy leader of the Order of the Flashing Blade, Gino naturally knew the workplace of William McConaughey's apparent identity, but he also knew that he must not rush to Glover and Sons to meet the leader directly.
He first went to the surrounding grocery market, purchased some materials, and cast a strongly focused light.
Gino came to a hotel near Glover and Sons, opened the curtains in the room, and lit the lamp in his hand. The concave lens behind the lamp focused the light into a point, which was projected on the floor-to-ceiling window glass on the top floor opposite.
His palms swayed in front of the bright lamp, causing the projected light to flicker in a certain alternating rhythm of short and long:
——
M·-A···S-T·E·-·R……
"Leader, Brother Elrich has been arrested for trying to attack children. Currently, all members of the cult have been hidden. Can we continue with the plan?"
Sitting on the comfortable sofa in the office, William saw the light and shadow projected on the glass, and quickly decoded the corresponding content in his mind, frowning slightly.
"Elrich has always been extremely calm, how could he be imprisoned for such a ridiculous reason?"
"Is there a conspiracy of the Anti-Suppression Bureau hidden behind this..."
This idea was rejected by William as soon as it came up.
"No, this is not in line with the style of the Anti-Suppression Bureau. If they have got conclusive evidence, they will definitely send out the suppression troops directly to suppress it."
As William thought about it, the fire in his skull ignited fiercely, and the brilliance of reason became brighter and brighter. His mind was cold and heartless, and his thinking started to operate like a mechanical gear, analyzing in an orderly manner.
The recent experiences were vivid in his mind, and he seemed to be inspired by his memories.
"Is this a ploy by the female detective and her moth assistant? Want to force me to show up?"
"Or is it just that Elrich simply couldn't restrain the influence of the blade and became restless?"
"However, as long as the Anti-Suppression Bureau is not involved, as long as the plan proceeds normally... I don't need to worry about this at all."
Just because the uprising that is being plotted now is of great significance to William!
In his plan, he first sponsored weapons at low prices to the group of naive so-called revolutionaries, and when they started a riot, he allowed the believers to wait for an opportunity to sneak into them and absorb the power of struggle to improve the Secret of the Blade.
When the riots intensify, those ignorant lower-class workers who are easily incited are bound to listen to the lies of the revolutionaries and become a stepping stone for the other party to realize their ambitions. They carry out large-scale strikes, marches and armed struggles, and make a lot of money by exploiting cheap labor. ’s factories will also be paralyzed - and the interests of those in power will suffer greatly.
At that time, he will take advantage of the opportunity to leak the information of the revolutionary leader to the person in power, or directly carry the other party's head as a gift... In this way, he can gain the friendship of the person in power! Be protected by those in power!
And I will dedicate this betrayal uprising to the great scarred captain! Such a grand sacrificial performance will definitely make my long-stagnant Blade Secrets advance by leaps and bounds!
Participating in the riot and uprising - can improve the strength of the Shining Blade Cultists under their command and further expand their power.
Betray the leader of the uprising - gain the friendship and protection of those in power, so you no longer have to worry about being traced by the Anti-Suppression Bureau.
Devotion to the Betrayal and Uprising - will greatly improve my Blade Secrets! One step closer to the road to ascension.
This is the plan that William McConaughey has been planning for a long time to kill three birds with one stone!
Team power, social connections, and personal strength can all benefit from this plan!
He will never allow anyone to hinder the progress of the plan...except the Anti-Suppression Bureau.
But at this moment, his rationality still carefully deduced a possible obstacle - since the female detective of the Holmes family was wearing an artificial noon stone at the time, and could also mobilize low-level extermination troops to search, she had obviously joined the anti-suppression campaign. In the game.
If Elrich was indeed framed and imprisoned, then the other party is likely to have traces of the cult. As for why they have not directly notified the Anti-Suppression Bureau to launch an attack...
They just want to lure me to show up to contact the cult and arrest me together!
William whispered softly, "Those who are arrogant will eventually be destroyed in their arrogance!"
"Thinking that you can wipe out our cult is the greatest arrogance of a female detective!"
William McConaughey knew in his heart that even if Elrich was really in prison, he would never reveal any details about the Order of the Flashing Blade.
He is willing to believe in Elrich's loyalty, or in other words, he is willing to believe that the handle in his hand can make Elrich loyal.
But you can despise the enemy in words, but you must pay attention to the enemy in action.
After all, William had climbed all the way up from the bottom, and his past experiences had made him develop the habit of being cautious and subtle. He felt that he should perhaps hold a ceremony to visit Sichen Night Watch and ask for his enlightenment.
However, in order to avoid the counter-insurgency or possible searches, William never kept any magical instruments in his residence and office.
Besides, the Night Watchman's Sorrow Ceremony is not safe. To be precise, any ceremony to invoke the power of the Hours is not safe.
The Night Watchman is the god who guides the way forward, the god who illuminates and drives away darkness, and the god without mercy. Although He is willing to light the way for those who are willing and unwilling, His gift is not a kind charity.
If the caster wants to open the door of his eyes, he needs to make a little sacrifice - the cost is extremely small in the eyes of the Hours, but it is a very serious sacrifice for mortals - the caster must dedicate the precious knowledge that exists in the root of his thinking, that is, the light in his skull, during the ceremony. If there is no loyal assistant to help chant the words to stabilize his mind... The caster will be unconscious at best, or even demented and spiritless, and the light in his skull will be extinguished.
However, the believers who William has worked hard to cultivate and practice secret teachings are for use at this moment!
He held a cup of cold coffee, stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling glass window and looked down at the hurried figures coming and going on the street, just like the upper class relaxing in their spare time between work.
But his action of taking a sip and holding the cup with his left arm indicated the secret code of 1 a.m., which was the time when the Night Watch was in charge. It meant that the deputy leader of the Flash Blade Cult would initiate the Night Watch's Sorrow Ceremony and ask for the guidance of the Night Watch.
William saw the curtains of the hotel room not far away open and close three times from the corner of his eye, and knew that Gino already knew what he meant.
He sat back at his desk with confidence, sank into the soft sofa, and waited for good news.
At dusk, the sky began to darken. William, who was about to finish his day's work, witnessed a faint flickering light coming from a very far distance... It was the direction of the new headquarters of the Flash Blade Cult!
The faint light flickered briefly and hurriedly, and there was only a very slight difference between the long signal and the short signal, as if the sender had encountered some very anxious difficulties.
But William was still keenly aware of the difference and completely decrypted the content of the message:
"Master, the radicals have torn up the covenant with us. They have joined forces with the Burton Brothers and are rushing to the warehouse to forcibly seize our goods and equipment!"
William's face suddenly darkened. The uprising was related to his future path of ascension... no one could mess up!
He quickly went downstairs to call for a rental carriage, stopped a few miles away from the new headquarters, and walked to the stinking river bay.
Halfway through, he found a group of guys holding torches and in disheveled clothes who seemed to be heading towards the warehouse. The other side seemed to have just experienced a fight, and some of the new bandages on their shoulders and arms were still bleeding.
They tightly grasped the firearms that William was very familiar with, their faces were filled with angry expressions, and they followed unknown clues.
The radical leader, who goes by the alias Guy, looked at the guy who was walking towards him. The guy looked pale but dressed in a suit and had muddy shoes on his feet. It was obvious that he was the upper class person they hated the most.
Guy's pupils reflected the flame of the torch, and the anger of being betrayed was burning, reflecting the disgusting upper class guy in front of him. He raised the barrel of the gun and planned to fire the first shot of their revolution on the edge of the remote city!
Bang——
Suddenly, the gunshot sounded like a starting order, and the figure flashed with the knife light in the smoke. The hideous head fell like a full fruit, and the blood gushed out from the broken neck like a fountain.
William McConaughey sprinkled the blood on his fingertips. Behind him was a forest of flesh and blood composed of headless people with twisted limbs like dead old trees.
