Grandmaster Hunter of Age of Mythology

During the period of national mourning, mercenary associations in the fourteen countries of the Shadow Moon branch of the Church of Light issued missions like hungry wolves - to collect badges from religious figures. Each badge was clearly marked with a price, and the war between the mercenary organizations and the Church of Light erupted like a volcano.

The first to be hit was the Kingdom of Pumasai. The relationship between the two sides was like dry wood meeting fire, which could be ignited at any time.

The Church of Light was full of contempt for those beggar-like mercenaries. In their eyes, the fighting power of most of these mercenaries was at the level of low-level soldiers, as insignificant as ants.

Therefore, the two sides might fight fiercely like cockfighting in any place, while governments across the empire chose to remain neutral like fence-sitters so as not to offend either side.

The country where the Shadow Moon Branch Parish is located has fallen into complete chaos. Bloody scenes such as hacking people in the streets have become commonplace, as if the entire country is shrouded in darkness.

During the national mourning period, only Shadowmoon City was doing normal. As for the great mourning period, no one cared about the feasting, singing and dancing in the city, and business continued as usual. The emperor was far away, so no one cared about the sorrow of the king's death...

As for the battle between the mercenaries and the church, it had been settled long ago. A large number of church leaders died or could not escape, so Shadowmoon City was in good order...

The Mercenary Association is about to reopen, and the headquarters dispatched a thousand elite troops to fight a tough battle to eliminate the Cathedral's power. However, when they arrived, they were surprised to find that the Cathedral's power had been wiped out.

Faced with this unexpected situation, everyone was at a loss. Afterwards, the Mercenary Association began to work, sorting out the bodies and cleaning up.

This year's president, Crocodile Holly, was born a heavy cavalryman. He brought with him regular troops from the mercenary headquarters, all of whom were masters above the level of senior knights.

The tough battle that was originally planned did not happen, so Crocodile Holly decided to hide his strength.

After all, the church forces in the cities of the Pumasai Kingdom still need to be eradicated, but now a lot of effort can be saved. And the military expenses will be borne by the empire, and the mercenary association can also make a lot of money.

While sorting out the files, the cooperation with Shile Castle still needs to be continued. As for the 500 million yuan reward, the headquarters is also aware of it, but due to time constraints, it has not been transferred to the headquarters in time.

Crocodile Holly held the seal and opened the underground vault of the Mercenary Association. A large amount of wealth was stored here, including important items such as account books.

It seems that the previous president had already made all the preparations. Although there may be some loss of temporary financial loss, it has not caused any major damage.

The Mercenary Association took five days to reorganize and resume business, and spent money to purchase news from the Assassin's Guild, so Crocodile Holly understood what happened in the city.

The reward for collecting church badges continues. Crocodile Holly knows that Schle Castle took advantage of Daphne's death and hired people to pretend to be mercenaries to massacre the church. Although this is not a fair thing to do, it is at least revenge for Daphne.

Just a businessman, he has some tricks. Crocodile Holly sent an invitation to Miss Tan Aili to go for a visit.

These days, Tan Aili and Kashen are inseparable and full of energy all day long. They both say that it is the nourishment of love. They are also passionate and good-tempered at work, and gradually put their family business on the right track.

After receiving the invitation letter from the Mercenary Association, he did not dare to neglect it. He immediately dressed up and went to the Mercenary Association with Kashin.

In the office that used to belong to Daphne, I saw President Crocodile Holly, a middle-aged knight with a burly figure, wearing a robe and holding a scroll, like a scholar.

He behaved elegantly and politely invited the two to sit down. He smiled and said, "Master Shi Le has a good trick. He asked us in the Military Association to take the blame for you. It's not fair, but it doesn't affect the result. I am not angry."

"I was too clever for my own good, but I couldn't hide the truth from the powerful president. I apologize to the Mercenary Association!"

"This matter is not that serious. It can be regarded as a lesson for the church. All church organizations affiliated with the Shadowmoon City branch must be severely punished and buried with President Daphne. As for the Mercenary Association's protection of Shile Castle, it still needs to perform its duties as usual, so the family head's matter will be forgiven. However, you must not pretend to be the Mercenary Association in the future."

"It should be so. I really had no choice. My spies resorted to this desperate measure after confirming that President Daphne was arrested. On the one hand, I wanted to prevent the church from acting rashly so as to avoid killing the president; on the other hand, I wanted to take the opportunity to weaken the teaching group. Unexpectedly, President Daphne had been poisoning these people for several days, and these people had already been deeply poisoned. They could only rely on magic to survive, and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced. The teaching group was defeated by the army outside the city. They were angry and killed President Daphne, resulting in the failure of the rescue operation!"

Daphne's death was a moving story. She fulfilled her duty to protect the property of the Mercenary Association, and single-handedly dealt a heavy blow to the Teaching Corps and assassinated the Archbishop. She was a role model for mercenaries and a hero of our time.

Crocodile Holly: "Does your family have a top stonemason? Build a huge statue for President Daphne and place it at the main entrance of the Mercenary Association to commemorate this great heroine. The gold coins will be paid by the association!"

"No need. President Daphne and I hit it off right away. I will take charge of this matter to express my respect to the president. President Holly doesn't have to worry about this matter. It will be a great success!"

"Okay! The head of the family is so sincere. This president will give you this opportunity. You will take care of the statue. How many remaining believers are there in the city now? This president wants to catch them all in one fell swoop. I hope you can provide information."

Tan Aili smiled and said, "The lords outside the city looted the cathedral, so they blocked the city gates. The believers have been screened and cleansed again and again, and no living creatures will be allowed to go out to deliver messages. So no matter how powerful the remaining forces are, they are no match for them."

Crocodile Holly looked down on these noble lords and laughed contemptuously: "These people are all villains. They want to kill people to silence them. You have to restrain them from harming innocent people and raping women... The situation in the city is really as the intelligence said - it is cruel and brutal."

Tan Aili said guiltily: "In order to eradicate the power of the church, some bad events are inevitable, and the suffering of civilians cannot be avoided in any case. At this moment, 60% of the population has died, and a group of evil people have taken the opportunity to cause chaos. We can do nothing about it. Overall, the chaos and order are like a plague. Life will soon recover after the disaster."

Crocodile Holly sighed: "Your methods are too cruel, but fortunately this incident is beneficial to the future development of the city. I hope the head of the family will not be so cruel in the future and be a little more merciful. But if it were me, there would be no good way to prevent the church from making a comeback. Alas! Any major event is a nightmare for ordinary people. When it prospers, the people suffer. When it perishes, the people suffer."

Kashin witnessed the conversation between the two. Although he sympathized with the suffering of the civilians, neither of them paid attention to their plight. They continued to do what they were supposed to do. The soil for the survival of the church had been cut off here. It was perfect.

The headquarters of the branch temple was destroyed, and many church masters who maintained order died, which was a huge benefit to President Crocodile Holly. His mission was to eradicate the power of the cathedral, but he didn't expect to get merits for nothing as soon as he arrived, and he had already exceeded the task. He could get a lot of merits just by writing a report.
