Soul echo

Chapter 182
"Let me introduce myself first. I am the deputy head of the 'Shield of Perseverance'. You can call me 'Alec'."

The Adventurer's House provided Zhong Ye with a reception room, where he could chat with Alek without being disturbed.

The two sat facing each other with a low table between them.

After entering the reception room, in order to show politeness, Alek took off his coat and leather armor and hung them on the hanger by the door. Only the weapons he carried with him were kept at hand like Zhong Ye.

Alek clasped his fingers together and looked at Zhong Ye seriously, "I heard from the people at the church that you are looking for cultists?"

Zhong Ye nodded, and admitted openly: "Yes, I traveled from Turin to Valais, then from Valais to Montreux, and then from Montreux to here, and followed all the way."

"Then you have to be careful, although I know you should be prepared, but not all cultists are thieves who can only do petty theft, and some of them have great power—— At that time, maybe you will not have any accidents, but other people don't have such powerful strength as you."

At this point, Alek closed his mouth, this topic is over, and he doesn't intend to continue talking.

From Zhong Ye's eyes, he could see the unusual firmness, the will under his eyes was burning fiercely, and this flame was enough to burn any evil.

— Actually it’s not just evil, it could be something else.

Alek looked at the man sitting opposite him. He came all the way from the east, and his body was full of mystery. No one knew what he had experienced before coming to the west, nor did he know why he was able to have such a tough personality. will.

But these things have nothing to do with him. The man in front of him is his comrade in arms, fighting against the abyss together and hunting down evil comrades in arms.

After a pause, Alek turned around and said, "We heard from the church that you are planning to use hallucinogens to track down the cultists. May I ask, where did you learn about Anansi's letter?" Is the hallucinogen business connected to the cultists?"

"Yes," Zhong Ye nodded his head, "I have already issued a mission here. Adventurers are far more powerful than those hallucinogen dealers. They can catch those guys in front of me."

Hearing this, Alek frowned, "But if you do this, the city will be in chaos."

The addition of dozens of adventurers is enough to disrupt the order of a city. How do those 'rough embryos' who are often active in the wilderness know how to fight in the city?

"So I need your help!"

After the words fell, both of them fell into silence.

They looked at each other, and both recognized similar colors in each other's eyes.

"...What do you need?" After a long silence, Alek asked softly.

Zhong Ye said lightly: "I need a place to take and detain those guys."

"We can provide."

"I need someone to reassure the populace that they won't be incited by some hidden conspirators."

"We can do it."

"I need a comrade-in-arms who can resist the nobles of Annecy for me."

"We can still."

Zhong Ye took a light breath and raised his palm.

The deputy head of the 'Shield of Perseverance' also stretched out his hand and struck each other, which represented the establishment of the oath.

Putting down his hands, Alek looked at Zhong Ye with a piercing gaze, and said, "From the moment you choose to be enemies with cultists, demons, and the abyss, we are comrades-in-arms, even if we have never met, even if we are thousands of miles apart, even if We have different beliefs, but we also fight to protect the world!

"When you fight against evil, we are your most solid backing!
"By the way, your plan is very good, not just me, I think others will like it-although it is a bit rough, it breaks our mindset and does something we have never dared to do before."

At the end, Alek couldn't help laughing, Zhong Ye's plan was really in line with their wishes!
"I dare not, it's just because I don't have so many worries." Zhong Ye also replied with a smile.

Not having so many worries means that he can act recklessly, even in the face of retaliation from a huge interest group, he only needs to protect himself and his disciples.

"By the way, if you join, there will be no turning back. Once the superiors of those hallucinogen dealers know that the market in Annecy has been destroyed, they will definitely be furious, and retaliation will follow-even if they dare not know Whatever you do on the surface will always trip you up secretly." Zhong Ye reminded.

Alek shook his head, "There is no turning back on the way to fight against the abyss. If those hallucinogen dealers can really have relations with cultists, then they are our enemies... No, even if they have relations with cultists... It doesn't matter, just 'selling hallucinogens' is enough to make them our enemies!"

Zhong Ye was a little surprised by his answer, so he asked, "You seem to know how much harm 'hallucinogens' can bring to people?"

Speaking of this matter, Alek became serious, shook his head and sighed: "I don't know if you have heard of such a case, there is a fanatic, in order to make his belief pay more attention to him, he tried to use hallucinogens to strengthen himself, Provided more power of faith, he succeeded, his faith paid attention to him, because he was corrupted by the evil god of the abyss - the fanatic in the story is a follower of Lady Faith, he is a priest in the island of Great Britain. We Take this incident as a warning, not only spread this incident within the church, but also let other churches know how terrible 'psychedelics' is, but this kind of thing is still banned repeatedly!"

Alek took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "In the past, we were too gentle on the crackdown on hallucinogens, thinking that this task should be done by nobles, so that hallucinogens have been flooded under our noses. None of us noticed yet!

"We will fight with you against the group behind those hallucinogen traffickers. The adventurers may not catch the traffickers so quickly, but I can assure you that when the asylum of the traffickers starts to move , the 'Shield of Perseverance' will immediately enter the city!"

"No!"

To Alek's surprise, Zhong Ye rejected his proposal.

"No matter what happens, you have to enter on the 'third day'. This is to ensure that the interest groups behind the hallucinogen dealers can appear before our eyes. Until the third day comes, you don't have to do anything, just sit on the sidelines Just fine."

Alek was stunned by Zhong Ye's words, and then frowned again.

Alek opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he heard Zhong Ye say: "During these three days, I will hire someone to publicize my name and let the whole city know the name 'Zhong Ye'." What does the name represent, and at the same time let them know that the behavior of the adventurer is related to me, so that all the spearheads will be pointed at me."

"Are you going to use yourself as bait?" Alek asked in surprise.

Zhong Ye laughed and clenched his fists in front of Alek, "It's both a bait and a trap."

Alek's eyes lit up, and he suddenly remembered that the man in front of him was a great hero who saved several cities. If he didn't have enough strength, how could he become a hero?
"At the same time, I also hope that when you leave the Adventurer's House, you will show an attitude of breaking up with me."

"Okay! Yes!" Alec agreed without hesitation, it was not difficult for him.

Zhong Ye smiled, and continued to discuss more detailed plans with Alek.

He set the time on the 'third day', not only for fishing, but also to make players more interested in 'cultist'.

Now his popularity in the forum is not low. After experiencing the Montreux incident, he found that there are still some players who have a sense of justice. They can empathize with the aborigines in the game. Planning the assassination of the old lord of Montreux.

That being the case, he can use his popularity to drive the popularity of the 'hallucinogen dealer' to make players think of reality.

——Although they can't fight drug dealers in reality, they can vent their anger in the game!
