Green Monster Epic

“I’ve come this time to seek help.”

Allen got straight to the point.

“Your Excellency Allen, you don't want to deal with the Temple of Nature, do you?”

Upon hearing this, Jiawen picked up the teacup in front of him, took a small sip, and said with feigned horror, “Although my Assassin's Guild is not weak, dealing with them within the sphere of influence of the Temple of Nature is truly impossible!!”

“Do you think I'm stupid??”

Knowing that the other party was pretending to be confused, Allen glanced coldly at the other party's playful expression before continuing, “This time I've come to you because I have another task and want to seek the help of the Assassin's Guild. As for the specific reward, you can set the price according to my task requirements.”

“Of course, if you are still willing to acknowledge the fact that the last mission was terminated, but I have already paid a portion of the reward, and thus provide convenience for this mission, I will naturally be even more grateful.”

“Your Excellency Allen, why don't you first tell me what task you want to post in our guild?”

Jiawen smiled slightly, not feeling the slightest bit of guilt because Allen had proactively mentioned the fact that the Assassin's Guild did not take action in the last mission.

“I heard that powerful forces all have their own demi-planes. I would like to venture to ask you, Your Excellency, whether your guild's stronghold in Mansha City also has such a demi-plane?”

Allen stared at Jiawen, not revealing the content of his mission, but instead suddenly raising a somewhat abrupt question.

The so-called demi-planes are failed newborn world planes that, due to their own rule defects or insufficient energy reserves, or being restrained by natural disasters or external forces during their growth, ultimately fail to form complete rules.

In most natural rules, they are not much different from thousands of normal planes, but they also have many defects that normal planes do not have, such as magic loss, rule confusion, etc.

Among them, the biggest difference from normal planes should be that the spatial area of demi-planes is generally smaller.

If the space of a normal plane is a huge building hundreds of stories high, then the space of a demi-plane can at most be compared to a room in this high building.

Generally speaking, the area of a demi-plane is only several hundred kilometers, far less vast than a mature plane, and resources are also scarce.

However, such a narrow spatial area also brings other benefits, such as its plane barrier being more resilient and more secretive.

Once formed, it is difficult to invade through external forces unless one can lock its plane coordinates and establish a permanent channel.

The strength shown to the outside world by the long-standing subordinate churches of the Temple is not strong, but they can influence and even dominate powerful kingdoms and civilizations, not entirely because of the gods behind them supporting them, but more because of the power they possess themselves.

Just like everyone knows that in addition to the Pope and High Priest, who possess the power of saints due to coronation, there are no less than one saint-level existence within each major church, as well as a saint-level body that can carry the will of the gods to descend into the Feiman world and become their incarnation, but very few people have been able to discover traces of these saint-level existences in the real world.

Are these powerful figures willing to live in poverty, like martyrs of asceticism?

After painstakingly reaching the high position of a saint, do they willingly give up a good life?

That is naturally impossible.

Allen asked himself that his need for material things was already minimal. At the same time, with the increase of age and the subtle influence of divine consciousness on himself, his emotional fluctuations and desire pursuits were also developing in the direction of being desireless and without pursuit.

But even so, he would often suddenly feel all kinds of irritability and restlessness, wanting to find some way to prove his value.

Putting himself in their shoes, then those saint-level figures in the temple who have lived longer and are closer to death must also have times when they cannot suppress the restlessness and desires in their hearts, and they must also have their own pursuits and enjoyments.

The reason why these figures do not show any traces in the Feiman world is because their enjoyment and life mostly take place in the demi-planes controlled by various churches, or simply in alien planes with complete rules like the Mirage Plane.

The churches control the channels to these planes and can enter and exit them at any time, at most only needing to consume a large amount of resources.

Even in these planes, no one knows how many warriors and troops the churches have raised, so that they can be dispatched to the real plane at a critical moment to suppress and slaughter those who are disobedient.

Allen was only qualified to access these more secret information when he reached his current position.

Leaders of wilderness tribes would not even have heard the words 'demi-plane'.

“Your Excellency Allen, what are you asking this for?”

A cold light flashed in Jiawen's eyes, and his expression became a bit gloomy.

“Don't misunderstand, I just need a neutral place to negotiate with the various churches of the Temple of Nature!!”

“You should be clear about my current situation.

If I cannot dispel the malice of the various churches of the Temple of Nature towards my clan, and they really decide to suppress and exterminate my clan, I will have no way to protect the clan comprehensively!!”

“So I need to strike first and let them understand my determination and will!!!”

Allen's expression was as usual, only the firmness and vigorous fighting spirit in his eyes made people shrink back.

“……”

As a mage, Jiawen's intelligence is naturally outstanding.

Just by listening to Allen's words at this time, and the emotions revealed in his eyes, he already had a guess.

At this time, when he looked at Allen again, there was more admiration and respect in his eyes.

However, as the person in charge of the guild in the Mansha Wilderness, what Allen was asking for at this time was also very important to the Assassin's Guild, so he could not immediately give an answer, but needed to contact and communicate with the other high-level members of the guild.

“I roughly understand what you want to do, Your Excellency, but the matter of the demi-plane is also very important to my guild, so I still need some time to discuss it with the other principals of the guild.”

“I hope you can give me a few days, Your Excellency Allen, and I will give you an answer then.”

“Alright, I can wait!!”

Although Jiawen did not directly answer Allen's question, his words at this time had already indirectly confirmed Allen's guess.

After the heaviest stone in his heart fell, he felt a little more relaxed, and he nodded decisively in response.

“I will rest here for the next few days.

Please trouble someone to prepare a room for me.”

“Of course, it has already been prepared.”

“Thank you!!”
