Chapter 134 Losing Control

"Master Bishop Naik, the team has been assembled."

Naik nodded slightly, "Where are those who escaped from the city-state?"

"Everyone has settled in," the guard wearing the armor of a priest of the Church of Storms said with a happy face: "There are 43,412 people in total, except for the 2,314 people who are followers of Lady Storm, the rest have signed contracts with us. "

"The contract stipulates that they will recite Lady Storm's teachings every day in the coming days, advocate freedom, and hone their fighting spirit. I believe some people will take this opportunity to embark on Lady Storm's path of faith."

"And the most important thing is that there are nearly ten thousand people inside who are still believers of the Dawn Church. They have made it clear that they have changed their faith to Lady Storm. The Bishop's plan is completely..."

"Stop saying compliments," Naik raised his hand to interrupt, "arrange some people to protect them, and the rest are ready to enter the city-state."

"Yes, sir!"

"Go ahead."

Naik stood outside the high wall south of Castor, staring at the spire of Krims Cathedral, his eyes gradually becoming firmer.

Only more than 40,000 people?

Compared with the population base of Custer City-State, which is more than 300,000, it is just over one-tenth.

Pity……

However, it is also time to take back the Pearl of the West Coast, the city-state of Custer, to the Church of Storms!

Dawn, this nail has been buried here for too long...

Praise to Lady Storm!

…

…

At this time, the central area of ​​the Custer city-state is where the parliament is located.

Old Count Ernst stood in the consul's office on the top floor, looking at the clouds outside the window, with a proud smile on his face.

The Black Pearl takes action,

The Basques arrived,

The people from the Desire Sect are also in place,

Whether they get what they want or not, the outcome is determined!

"Conditions fulfilled, ha, ha ha..."

Dang, Dang Dang.

"Come in." Old Count Ernst stopped smiling.

Hearing his voice, several nobles filed in, with uncontrollable joy on their faces.

"Your Majesty, the people in the parliament have been imprisoned. Now, do you want to start attacking the die-hards of the Secret Adjustment Department and the City Guards?"

"Punitive?"

An old red-haired man with a gold and jade-inlaid pipe in his mouth hummed: "Baron Seth, now the earl has taken the initiative, both the Secret Service and the city guard are considered his vassals."

"Wouldn't it make people more rebellious towards adults if we go to attack you now?"

Baron Seth glanced at him and said, "Baron Nascimento, I'm afraid the reason why you don't want me to take action is because of other things, right?"

"For example, that person in your family, um, is his name Marco, right? He didn't appear in the parliament this time."

"Humph, Marco was just bewitched by the people from the Department of Secrets. Our Nascimento family has always stood by Count Ernst!"

"To put it lightly, you..."

"Cortez," Old Ernst had to interrupt them, "Trocchi is right, it is not appropriate to go to the Secret Adjustment Department at this time."

Baron Nascimento complimented, "That's what the count said."

"However," Old Ernst changed the subject, "not taking action for the time being does not mean that we will let them run wild. There must be a proper deterrent, don't you think?"

"Of course, your lord, just give the order." Baron Seth also smiled.

"Your Majesty, please leave this matter to me," Baron Nascimento couldn't help but said, "Our Nascimento family is willing to serve as the vanguard."

"oh?"

"Your Excellency, the Seth family is also willing!"

Seeing this, several other people also spoke.

Things have developed to this point, and there is not much credit left. If we don't fight for it now, how can we have any chance later?

Are you just waiting for Count Ernst to reward you with some gold pounds?

Who still lacks that reward?

Old Count Ernst frowned slightly. According to his original intention, such an opportunity was naturally reserved for his own family, such as his son Laner Ernst...

But he was also aware of Trocchi's plan, which was because he was worried that after the conflict with the Secret Service, the heir of their Nascimento family would die on the battlefield.

"Well, let me think about this matter. You can go back and wait for news."

After hearing this, several nobles looked at each other and bowed: "Yes, Your Majesty the Earl!"

After they left, old Ernst looked out the window in the direction of the Dumitru neighborhood and decided in his heart that Laner would still take the initiative.

This time the Custer City State returned to their Ernst family, and it was time for the next generation of heirs to step forward.

boom!

While he was thinking, the door to the office was pushed open suddenly.

Before he could recover, two shadow killers instantly jumped out of his shadow and stood in front of him.

"It's me!" The young man who came in said quickly when he saw the two shadow killers.

Old Ernst saw the person clearly and said with an unhappy expression: "Lan'er, where have you lost your etiquette and demeanor? Have you even forgotten the most basic thing of knocking on the door?"

"Father, something happened." Lan Er was sweating profusely. He didn't even care about maintaining bullshit aristocratic etiquette.

"Um?"

"People from the Abyss Sect have appeared, and they are performing a sacrificial ceremony in the northeast!"

"The Abyss Cult?!" Old Ernst was startled. "Haven't they been wiped out by that guy Alais? How is it possible..."

"It's true." Laner didn't explain much, but walked to the window and opened it, "Listen."

"...We call you with our blood and souls, with burning flames and overflowing curses. In this dark night, we beg you to grant us pain..."

"Impossible! This is impossible!" Old Ernst's eyes widened.

Lan Er pursed his lips. He also didn't want to believe this matter, but the facts were already in front of him and he had no choice but to deal with it.

"Father, we must stop the people of the Abyss Sect, otherwise..."

Otherwise, even if we take control of the Custer City State, it will just be an extra desolate body.

Old Count Ernst understood what he meant. He must not let the Abyss Cult summon those terrifying abyssal creatures, otherwise Custer would be destroyed by them.

But what he can't figure out now is that Alais clearly eliminated the bone-eating mother worm and also killed the beloved who came to preside over the sacrificial ceremony...

Why didn’t the people of the Abyss Religion die?

"Father……"

Without waiting for him to say more, Old Ernst temporarily suppressed the doubts in his heart and said, "Let Mitra go over there and make sure to stop the sacrifice ceremony!"

"At the same time, arrange for the Nascimento and Seth families to go to the Secret Adjustment Department and the City Guards. We must not let them cause any more chaos."

"Also, go to the parliament and interrogate Samir to find out how much more they are hiding!"

All he could think of was that the Parliament had tampered with it, either because the report of the Secret Service Department was falsified, or it was secretly wooing the Abyssal Sect...

"I'm afraid it will be difficult to get over to Mitra's side."

Laner said bitterly: "You have forgotten that in order to ensure that Vazquez and Black Pearl's people can succeed this time, she and Aiko are holding back the secret blending department..."

"Mitra can't move...who else can? Who...Dawn? Yes, Dawn!"

Old Ernst's mind was racing and he spoke quickly: "You go to Krims Cathedral now. No, I will ask Maxin to send you there to seek support from Bishop Andrews."

"They are in Custer, and they will definitely not sit back and watch the Abyss Religion complete the sacrifice ceremony!"

"Dawn? Okay, I'll go right away!" Laner nodded.

"Marcin!"

"Follow your orders, Lord Ernst!" A shadow killer next to him stepped forward and jumped into the shadows with Laner.

After a long time, old Ernst finally let out a sigh of relief.

"In the end, which link caused the problem?"

According to the plan made by him and the Glory Society, the Seres family has already nodded in recognition. The Black Pearl's attack this time will confirm their desire to obtain the treasure.

After these two conditions are met, the Klanders will not block the information he reported previously, and the Glory Society will also propose to recognize their family's ownership of the city-state of Custer.

At the same time, the power of the Abyss Sect was used, in the name of the Parliament, to get rid of Alais, a supporter of the Parliament, and to split the relationship between the Secret Coordination Department, the City Guards and the Parliament.

Then with the help of some members of the Parliament and the Noble Committee, Samir was forced to voluntarily give up his position as consul.

In this way, the Ernst family can gain actual control over the city-state of Custer, both in name and status.

Judging from the results, the entire plan was perfect!

Even if Alais is unwilling to take action, at most he has failed to achieve the purpose of differentiation.

He will also arrange for others to get rid of the Abyss Sect...

However, someone who obviously shouldn't be there will appear at this time?

Why didn’t the Abyss sect die?

Old Ernst felt for the first time that the whole thing was out of his control...

Now, he can only hope that the Church of Dawn will take action to deal with the person who accidentally disrupted the situation!

…

…

"They are from the Desire Sect..."

Nifa frowned when he saw several investigators being controlled by those sources of desire, "Balaz, strengthen the source defense of the rune array!"

Balazs stamped his feet, activating more runes with his extraordinary power.

There is another layer of defense against source erosion in the inner layer of the mask.

"It seems that the person we are waiting for has arrived. Let's go and have a look."

With that said, the investigators followed several high-level officials, jumped onto the roof of the Secret Service Department, and looked in the direction of the Natoli neighborhood.

At this time, there are only more than 1,200 extraordinary beings left in the Secret Adjustment Department, including retired investigators who were summoned back, and those who were contaminated and about to undergo distortion...

"so many people……"

I saw a dense crowd of people with no end in sight at the west entrance of Dumitru Block.

They all wore uniform bronze half-length armor, with one shoulder exposed, and they all held a shield in one hand and a spear in the other.

Every fifth warrior, there is a female warrior holding a lantern to illuminate the surroundings and resist the pollution of the red moon.

The leader was a woman, wearing a purple dress embellished with gems, holding a golden scepter in her hand, standing proudly.

When lightning flashes across the night sky, you can see the perseverance on their faces, which represents their determination not to give up until they achieve their goals.

"It's a Vazquez!"

A grin appeared on Arianna's face, and the tentacles around her danced faster.

"It's them?"

"I didn't expect these Vazquez people to be able to form an army!"

"This time it's hard..."

There are many people in the Secret Adjustment Department whose elders participated in the war twenty years ago.

Although they have not seen it with their own eyes, they have heard about the Basques' battle formations.

"Quiet!" Deputy Director Balaz shouted.

Immediately afterwards, Director Nifa flew out of the rune circle and hung in mid-air, calmly watching the Vazquez people.

"What's your purpose here?"

In the Vazquez battle formation, the leading woman looked at Nifa, pointing the scepter in her hand at the bird statue with missing wings, "For it!"

statue?

Taboo 0-91 The bow of the Homecoming?

Seeing the direction the woman was pointing in, Wayne frowned.

This is different from what he learned from Claire before. Isn't the target of these Basques Rover's left eye in Krimos Cathedral?

Did something unexpected happen, or was Claire's information wrong?

"Forbidden object...didn't you know you were?"

"Nicole Vazquez!"

The woman held her head high and shouted her name in a loud voice. Perhaps he had been waiting for this day for too long, and his tone was a little excited.

Is she Nicole?

Wei En looked at the leading woman and matched the information on the panel.

He still remembered that in the morning, this woman was hiding in the Morris Clinic and was Euan's client.

Killing intent... no wonder.

I'm afraid this woman was in Basil's neighborhood when he killed Collins and Erno.

[You are targeted by Nicole Vazquez’s murderous intent. Evaluation: What is supposed to come will come, right? Reward: Survival Points +3. 】

【……】

[You are targeted by the murderous intent of Amycus Lory Vazquez...Reward: Survival Points +2. 】

Yes, it has been discovered.

Wei En noticed the reminder message on the panel in his mind. If there was a fight later, he would have to pay more attention.

Just as he was thinking, Nifa nodded slightly, "I have seen you in the future, the successor of the Vazquez family."

"Return our clan's belongings to avoid war!"

Nicole didn't care about the future she talked about. She just wanted to lead the clansmen behind her to regain the inherited items belonging to their family. This was her responsibility as the heir!

So she said the word "war."

"Can't give it!"

"This belongs to our secret blending department, we can't..."

The investigators from the Secret Investigation Department were filled with indignation when they heard what she said.

"The ship's bow statue..." Nifa waved his hand to signal silence and looked down at the statue in his hand, "I can't give it to you."

Nicole seemed to have already guessed this outcome, "The choice has been given to you. If you don't agree, you will have to fight."

"Sorry, this is an item entrusted to me by an old friend." Nifa took a deep breath and nodded to Balaz behind him, "Get ready. Pay attention to their corrupt blood."

"clear!"

Balaz and a group of senior officials of the Secret Adjustment Department nodded, then turned around and led the previously assigned people to guard the surroundings of the Secret Adjustment Department.

And those standing at the front were the contaminated ones who had just come out of the sealed area.

After such a long time, the traces of distortion on their bodies became more serious, and even some of the abnormal ones who had lost their minds were killed by their surrounding companions.

"Hahaha, it's better to die like this than to become a monster and be killed by you."

"Minister Abbott, let me take the first step, and then..."

"Marco, after the battle is over, you have to buy me a drink." Roget had two blood-red eyes on his face, looking at the Basques and chuckled.

"No problem," Marco shook his dizzy head, turned on the Blood of Chaos, and hummed, "I'll move all the family wineries here!"

"gone!"

Roget glanced at Lacey with a smile on his face, but he didn't say anything. He just nodded and stood in front of the team with the other contaminated people without looking back.

"Lacie, you are really cruel..."

Marco said something faintly, and then waved the lantern staff to give everyone the light wind.

Lacey did not reply to him, but took a deep breath and ordered: "Wayne, take Tina behind and use your gun to aim at those extraordinary beings with the blood of corruption."

"Yeah." Wei En just didn't want to step forward, so he took Tina and took a few steps back.

The fake old Jack on the side also silently took a few steps back, facing Lacey's puzzled gaze, revealing two rows of white teeth, "I want to live a few more years..."

"Then please help me take care of them."

This time, Lacey did not refuse. He nodded and stood together with Marco, looking at the Vazquez opposite.

Wayne: "..."

He has nothing to do with Black Jack now. He can only choose to keep silent, fearing that he will be slapped to death by Black Jack...

Seeing this, Nicole on the other side stopped talking nonsense and held up the golden scepter.

"Warrior of Vázquez, kill!"

"kill!"

The Basques could no longer hold their nerve any longer, and following her order, they came towards the Secret Adjustment Department.

Whizzing……

Spears were thrown out by them as javelins, many of which shone with extraordinary power.

"Intercept!"

Balazs controlled the magic circle again, activated the attack rune, and the light blades rose up in the light shield, shooting towards the spears, with the intention of annihilating some of the Vazquez people.

War is not a solitary battle, especially when the opponent has a transcendent person. The blessing of the group cannot be resisted by individual strength.

Unless the individual's strength exceeds imagination, it must be at least a level three disaster to be able to affect the trend of the war.

Therefore, Nifa did not rush to let the people from the Secret Adjustment Department come forward, but planned to use the rune magic circle and some extraordinary characteristics to extinguish the fire for the Basques first.

"The property management department is ready!"

At this time, the power of the property management department is reflected.

I saw people from the property management department taking out a mechanical weapon. Most of them were mechanical devices similar to forts. They worked in teams of two to load cannonballs.

The sealed ones were already in place, and even some who were about to be completely deformed were already standing outside the mask, ready to rush to the Vazquez immediately.

Within a moment, the Vazquez people rushed to the Secret Adjustment Department.

"kill!"

"Bombardment!"

"Xhaka, Rice, Lozano!" (Storm!)

Everyone in the Secret Adjustment Department began to show various extraordinary powers and killed the Vazquez people.

Wayne had also taken out his sniper rifle and hid in the corner. According to Lacey's instructions, when he saw those people with the extraordinary bloodline of Corruption like Collins, he fired a shot.

[You use a sniper rifle to kill Clift Vazquez, triggering the burst rune, triggering the death characteristic - disease, and the death progress is 45/30. Evaluation: Very accurate. Rewards: Survival Points +10, Spear Skill +3, Resilience Level +1, Spirit Level +1. 】

【……】

[You use a sniper rifle to kill Asaram Vazquez... The instant death progress is 49/30... Reward: Survival point +10, marksmanship +3, toughness level +1, spiritual level +1. 】

Fucked.

For every person he kills, Wei En's mental strength increases by 1 point. If this continues, he will soon meet the conditions required to be promoted to an official wizard.

Old Jack next to him also took out his musket and fired one shot at a time.

"Hehehehehe..."

Just as the battle had just begun, a strange laughter resounded through the Secret Adjustment Department, and a dark and terrifying aura enveloped everyone.

Wayne quickly turned to look at Tina, and saw that the clown doll had escaped from her hand at some point, its button eyes were spinning rapidly, and it opened its big furry mouth and let out a high-pitched laugh.

Is this, the clown is out of control? !

Thanks to Mr. sunxu for the tip.
