Blue Sword

Another day passed.

Lateran Palace held another emergency cardinal meeting that night to discuss how to suppress the "Ectoplasmic Tree" mutation.

Despite the Templars' best efforts, the number of polluters in the urban area still rose from dozens to nearly a thousand. Most of the victims were wealthy middle-class people who had experience in eating extraordinary creatures, and were unfortunately killed. Contaminated by spiritual matter.

The advertising airship has resumed operation tonight and began broadcasting that everyone should stay at home and not go out. If you feel unwell, please contact the chief of security in your urban area immediately.

The effect is minimal.

The cardinals looked at the meeting materials with serious faces, staring blankly at the exponentially rising line. Some cardinals even secretly speculated that our Holy See would have to run away again this time.

Of course, the Holy See has not run away once or twice in history. Because the demonic tide destroyed the production line, enemy countries, barbarians, extraordinary sects, suppressed R-class deterrents, and various harmful factors like to take advantage of this time to come to Solomon City to cause trouble.

If it really couldn't suppress it, the Holy See could only make a strategic retreat. It was a traditional strategy to withdraw to a safe area to trade space for time, and then to recover Solomon after the technology was restored.

"Hey, why are there so few ectoplasmic polluters in the urban area of ​​Barberini?" A cardinal suddenly noticed that a certain urban area in the center of the map was particularly light in color (the darker the color, the greater the number of polluters). , embedded in a cluster of dark urban areas, is particularly eye-catching.

"That's where the Cang Qing Sword mercenary group is stationed," another cardinal said.

"Is that the R4 mercenary group? Bishop Varian's sister is also in it?"

"Yes, that mercenary group. It is said that nearly a thousand polluters were eliminated today."

"Now the Templars are mainly equipped with gunpowder weapons, and of course they are not as efficient as the Extraordinary Mercenary Group."

"But would it be a bit..."

The cardinals were talking a lot, and then someone suggested:

"In that case, why can't we also hire the extraordinary people in the city to clean up the ectoplasm polluters for us?"

"After all, a pure kinetic weapon is far less effective against polluters than extraordinary abilities, isn't it?"

"Bishop Kino, do you want to imitate Romulus's old deeds?" a cardinal said sarcastically.

Romulus, the last emperor of the Western Solomon Empire, once trusted the barbarian general Odoacer, but he rebelled and was deposed from the throne. What the bishop said about "the old story of Romulus" meant "leaving safety to dangerous people."

Bishop Kino smiled slightly and said:

"Your Majesty is willing to believe in the Cangqing Sword, why can't we believe in these extraordinary beings? Besides, it has basically been spread in the city now that the ectoplasmic polluters will only attack extraordinary beings. If they don't cooperate with us, won't they? Can we still cooperate with the ectoplasm polluters to overthrow the Holy See?”

Then the other bishops began to think. As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, so it seems that there is no problem in cooperating with the extraordinary ones - after all, after the mutation is over, the most likely thing is to send them out of the country as gifts.

There were so many witch hunting campaigns in the past that the Holy See had a bad reputation in the supernatural world. Even if it puts down its hostility and wants to cooperate now, the extraordinary people hiding in various parts of the city may not believe it.

"If you want to eliminate the wariness of these extraordinary beings, it is definitely not enough to gain trust, so you have to use benefits to lure them." Bishop Kino came up with another plan, "Isn't there a lot of potions at the Medical Department? Apply for a batch. As a reward, there will definitely be bold extraordinary people who take the risk and sign up to cooperate with us under the inducement."

"As long as there are no problems in the first wave of cooperation and the publicity effect is generated, more and more extraordinary people will come out. It is equivalent to copying the current cooperation model with Cangqing Sword, and then quickly promoting it, thereby reducing the pollution The growth trend of the industry has been suppressed.”

The cardinals discussed it again and came to the conclusion that "you can try it." So everyone turned their questioning eyes to Innocent.

"Okay." Innocent said calmly, "Let's try it like this first."

As the pope, he generally will not easily use his veto power on decisions reached by consensus among the cardinals. What's more, Innocent had no reason to veto this proposal.

However, Bishop Varian saw His Majesty's intention and seemed not to be optimistic about this idea. Therefore, after the meeting, he once again found Innocent who had left the meeting.

"Your Majesty, are you not optimistic about this plan?" Bishop Varian asked.

Seeing that no one was around, Innocent readily admitted: "That's right."

"I think what Bishop Chino said is quite reasonable." Bishop Varian expressed his opinion implicitly.

"Because of this, I agreed to let him try it." Innocent sighed and said, "Actually, what the Blue Sword can do, other extraordinary beings may not be able to do."

"Why?" Bishop Varian suddenly realized, "Because they are R4?"

While the bishops were still working all night, everyone in the Hearth Island in another dimension had already gone to sleep one after another.

Ask turned around in bed and was suddenly hugged by a soft body.

boom! He knocked the other person out of the bed with one palm, and then saw Medea getting up from the floor in thin clothes, and shouted in disbelief:

"Are you the devil?"

"Did I go to the wrong room?" Asik looked around subconsciously.

That's right, it's the furnishings of my room.

"You're in the wrong room," he said matter-of-factly.

Medea:………………

"I made the right move." She sat down by the bed, not daring to continue flirting with the group leader directly. She just brushed her burgundy hair, "I'm here to talk to you."

"What are you talking about?" Asik was speechless.

"How can I understand the skill of manipulating the law?" Medea said with a smile.

"Didn't I say it before?" Ask said, "There are two ways: either use violent mood swings to achieve enlightenment. The disadvantage is that the skills you gain may not be what you want."

"Either you can deepen your understanding of the laws through targeted study. That's what I'm going to do."

"But the former will be faster, right?" Medea moved her butt quietly, getting closer to him.

"Hurry comes at a price." Asik continued to explain, when he suddenly realized that there was something wrong with the distance between the two parties - Medea was almost pressed into his arms.

"In fact, you don't have to be so anxious." He grabbed Medea's shoulders and turned Miss Succubus's body over under her expectant gaze. "There is also a relationship between the law and the extraordinary person himself. The problem can generally be seen from the speed with which the extraordinary person comprehends the law and condenses the ritual."

"The fact that you can comprehend the manipulation ritual so quickly shows that you are an old Yin...an old wise man, so your speed in comprehending the skills will certainly not be slow."

"But I still want to go faster." Medea turned around coquettishly, with a coquettish tone, and began to seduce the leader with all her power, "Why do Paige and Eleanor have so many skills? But I don’t have one? Are you partial, Captain?”

"I didn't!" Ask said irritably, and decided to find a reason to drive her out. "Learning skills is a long-term process, and you can't take a shortcut by relying on boring means like night raids."

He got out of bed, put his arms around Medea's waist, then lifted her up by the waist, opened the door and threw her out.

"Asker!" As soon as he opened the door, he saw Peggy standing outside the door and said sheepishly, "The upper limit of the magic tide is already level 20, so I think..."

Before she could finish her words, Medea was thrown on top of her.

Ask closed the door, locked it, and went to bed again.

"One by one, they don't focus on their real work..." He thought helplessly, silently pulled up the quilt and blocked his ears.

The quarrel between the succubus and the vampire girl began to be heard outside. The crisp and angry one was Peggy, while the charming and impatient one was Medea, who soon alerted the girls in other rooms.

The real owner, Aske, was already asleep in the room.
