Astral Apostle

   Chapter 103 Independence

   Just when the imperial hunters set off to track them down, Bill and the others had already left the capital and were speeding all the way in a carriage.

After escaping last night, he followed Anzal and the others to the outskirts, where Roman's pre-arranged manpower was already waiting, and the carriages for running were ready. too slow.

   Worried that they would be overtaken by the royal family's pursuers, the group drove all night, and the carriage ran from the night until the next afternoon, hardly stopping halfway.

  Fortunately, the journey was quite smooth without any obstacles... It was so smooth that it was almost like running away, making Zhou Jing mistakenly think that he was on an outing.

  If the civilization is placed in a developed point, there must be interceptions in the middle of the road. Unfortunately, the Terra Empire developed primitively, and many times the legs ran faster than the news. Maybe the towns that passed along the road later, when they arrived, they had not received rumors.

   Realizing this, Zhou Jing no longer kept his nerves tense.

   The only thing to worry about is the pursuit of imperial hunters with different physical abilities than ordinary people, but if Jason is there, even if someone really wants to pursue them, they will be executed.

   "I don't know what happened to the royal family. Becky should be very angry. Unfortunately, Shu Ni is quite innocent, but if you should run, you have to run..."

   Zhou Jing was bumping up and down in the carriage, nibbling on jerky, speculating about the chain reaction after he ran away. . .

  Speaking of which, Roman is still in the capital, will it happen to him?

  Although this person has a strong hidden strength, in the base camp of others, it is estimated that he will not be able to please him. If he is exposed, he may be beaten out of fat.

   Zhou Jing didn't care whether Roman was hiccupping or not, he was mainly waiting for him to fulfill his contract.

   "Speaking of which, I've already collected enough customs clearance standards this time around, and I'm no longer afraid of dying."

   He opened the panel and took a look. Since he ran out of the capital, a series of new achievements have been triggered.

  [Trigger Achievement [Abandoning Darkness and Casting Light]]

  [You get 1000 astral points and 10 informational particles! ]

  [Trigger Achievement [Defection]]

  [You get 500 astral points and 5 informational particles! ]

  [You get career deeds——[The defected empire chief]]

  [Rating: National]

  [Current Fame Bonus: +3]

   "It's a good one who abandoned the dark and turned to the light. I'm afraid it's not the opposite."

   Zhou Jing took a look at the details. The trigger mechanism of this achievement is to enter the opposite camp and have a certain status. Job-hopping can have an impact, which has little to do with the nature of the camp itself.

   As the chief pharmacist of the empire, he turned out to betray the empire. The nature was bad. Just like the creation of a new type of alien blood medicine before, a new "life story" was created. In a sense, it was like Bill's "life node".

   But I am not a native of the Terra Empire, I do not eat feudalism, and I will not be bound by the concept of the state, so I have no psychological burden to moisten it.

With the new type of alien blood potion put into use, Bill has more information particles every time he settles daily. With the rewards of these two achievements, he has reached the 120-point clearance condition. Bill can start the clearance and settlement when he burps. , transformed into the Eternal Apostle.

   Of course, it is still the same as before, let Bill live as much as possible.

   After Jason's example, Zhou Jing already has experience. The longer he lives, the more possibilities, and the higher the evaluation, the higher the income from customs clearance.

   But mentally, he is more relaxed, which is equivalent to an insurance.

   After all, cooperating with Roman, he is also trying to find a skin with a tiger. Bill escaped with Roman's power and fell into the hands of others at this time. Once Roman feels that he can knead him at will, he may not perform his contract.

  If Roman doesn't fulfill his promise, Zhou Jing doesn't mind blowing up fireworks on the spot and making Roman jump in vain, and he won't get it. With the insurance to complete the customs clearance, he will be more confident.

  …

   After half a month, Zhou Jing followed Anzal and the others to a stronghold of Roman.

  This stronghold is hidden among the inaccessible mountains and forests, where a lot of supplies are hoarded, and most of the living facilities are readily available. There are hundreds of people on standby here, all of them are well-trained people, and there is no shortage of alien blood warriors.

   Zhou Jing was temporarily placed here, guarded by hundreds of people, waiting for Roman to arrive.

   He stayed in the stronghold for two months, during which a lot of things happened in the outside world.

  The news of Bill's defection centered on the capital and spread to the outside world, and more and more cities learned about it, causing an uproar.

   All kinds of rumors are rampant, some people say that the royal family is too much, forcing Master Bill away, some people say that Master Bill is dissatisfied with the marriage and eloped with his sweetheart.

The    Empire recruited imperial hunters and royal guards to form special search teams one by one to search for Bill's whereabouts from city to city, and issued a reward, as if Bill was a fugitive.

   At this juncture, many clans that controlled the city declared their independence one after another, breaking away from the control of the empire, claiming that they did not recognize Tarn as the orthodox empire.

   It seems that Bill's defection was the fuse, detonating the plans of the various tribes.

   This major event shook the entire empire. The people of the empire were eating Bill's melon with great interest, but unexpectedly, they suddenly turned into a melon, and they were stunned for a while.

The    royal family was caught off guard, and the properties and resources of many cities were directly confiscated by the tribes in charge of the city.

A few days after the tribes declared their independence, King Becky Tarn responded, probably saying that this was a premeditated mutiny, did not recognize the independence of the tribes, and severely criticized it as a reversal of history and a loss of the country. The chances of running into feudalism are so many.

The    Empire couldn't take care of spending too much manpower to search for Bill, and quickly recovered its combat power, recruited troops, and prepared to counter the rebellion.

  However, some tribes started to attack first, and directly surrounded the cities directly under the surrounding empire with arms. Because there were more blooms, the empire could not take care of it at all, and the area that the king could control was rapidly shrinking.

  At the same time, each tribe announced the establishment of an unbreakable alliance. As long as the empire sent troops to attack any tribe, all tribes in the world would attack it together.

   For a time, the empire's territory was divided, and the royal family and the tribes faced a stalemate.

  The residents of the cities under the control of many tribes were at a loss. When they woke up and changed their nationalities, they all felt puzzled... It was obviously a thriving empire, and good days were coming, why did it suddenly become like this?

The turmoil of the   Tera Empire caused many industries to stop directly, such as the imperial workshops in various places, which directly stopped their business, and the craftsmen could only work for the local tribes.

Due to the independence of each place, the royal family and each tribe have no time to focus on dealing with the threat of alien beasts. There are more and more rumors of alien beasts ravaging villages and towns. Almost no lords gather hunters to crusade alien beasts. They can only rely on the spontaneous behavior of hunters. .

   But the hunter group can't stay out of the storm.

The confrontation brought about the need for armament expansion. Each tribe began to vigorously win over the free hunters and imperial hunters in the cities they ruled, inviting them to join the tribe, and wanted to turn the hunters whose duty was to deal with alien beasts into knives against other forces.

  Many hunters are reluctant to point their blades at people, but not everyone values ​​the rules of hunters. The tribes are willing to spend their money and give too much, which still impresses many hunters.

   A batch of hunters jumped to join the army, and the strength of the two sides became stronger and stronger, and the hunter group gradually shrank in the process.

  The Empire of Terra was torn apart and precarious.

   At this time of chaos, Roman, who was the driving force behind the scenes, finally arrived belatedly and joined Zhou Jing.

   A lot of things happened before...
