Embers Ad Infinitum
Vol 2 Chapter 56: Stripping
Chapter 56 of the main text
Fortunately, Jiang Baimian felt that because the wilderness wanderers were jammed in the central square and attacked the North Street, Odick could not return to the Hunter's Guild and could only stay in the City Lord's Mansion.
In this way, they will not only be able to return the car, but also do not need to be in contact with each other in order to seek an opportunity to interrogate the fake "priest".
This is not something that can be done with a special pass.
After entering the city lord’s mansion, after seeing Odick in the side hall, Jiang Baimian threw the car key over, and asked straightforwardly:
"Is the fake ‘priest’ awake?"
Her subtext is "Have you completed the first round of interrogation".
Odick nodded gently and said:
"He firmly believes that he is a'priest', and his plan is to get us to the bait, find opportunities to'hypnotize' me, and let me be his accomplice. In this process, relying on the seeds planted in advance to cause a huge disturbance To create the most suitable environment for the final assassination."
"If it hadn't been known that City Lord Xu almost died in the Hunter's Guild, this plan would sound like real at first glance." Jiang Baimian commented.
Shang Jianyao immediately added:
"Unfortunately he is too weak to afford such a plan."
This made Odick suddenly a bit embarrassed, because facing such a "weak" opponent, he hardly played any role, and fell into sneezing **** not long after.
Jiang Baimian didn't waste time glaring at Shang Jian Yao, and asked instead:
"Have you figured out the whereabouts of Lei Yunsong, Lin Feifei and their companions?"
This is what she cares most about.
Odick shook his head:
"The fake ‘priest’ handed them over to a man nicknamed ‘dumb’, ready to use them in the assassination and framing.
"He doesn't know what the ‘dumb’ looks like and where he lives. He only relies on the contact information agreed within the ‘anti-intellectual religion’ to communicate. Now it’s too chaotic outside of North Street, and we can’t use corresponding means to contact him."
After listening, Jiang Baimian said thoughtfully:
"Is this ‘dumb’ a real ‘priest’?
"The connection and communication between him and the fake ‘priest’ is actually a kind of ‘hypnosis’?"
"It is possible." Odick also has speculation in this regard.
Their current consensus is:
A false "priest" is an awakened person who has been hypnotized or tampered with memory by the real "priest". Therefore, he believes that he is a real "priest" from the bottom of his heart, and fulfills various tasks in accordance with the instructions of the senior sect.
And that high-level most likely is the real "priest."
At the same time, he may also be a "dumb" collaborator.
At this time, Shang Jianyao suddenly asked:
"Why do fake ‘priests’ also ‘hypnotize’?"
"The true "priest" specifically finds the awakened person who can "hypnotize"? Only in this way can we create a perfect substitute." Jiang Baimian guessed.
If a false "priest" can't "hypnotize", then not only will others not believe that he is a true "priest", but he himself will also doubt and shake the corresponding perception.
Odick said subconsciously:
"How to accurately find the awakened person who will be'hypnotized'..."
The number of awakened people is not only small, but they are also used to cover up their own abilities.
Before he finished speaking, Odick suddenly stopped because he had already thought of the answer.
Shang Jianyao said with excitement:
"Every time a group of awakened people are born from the'anti-intellectual religion', a'priest' must be decided."
The domain of the "last man" of March is in terms of hypnosis and memory, and within the sect that believes in him, the number of awakened persons in the corresponding domain cannot be said to have an absolute advantage, but it will certainly not be less.
"When the number of awakened people with the ability of'hypnosis' reaches a certain number, put them together, lock them in a certain place, and'kill' each other? In the end, a true'priest' and multiple false'priests' came out. '?" Jiang Baimian tried to translate Shang Jianyao's words.
The more she thought about it, the more she realized it might be true.
This perfectly conforms to the doctrine of "anti-intellectualism"!
"Most people don't need brains, they are just a puppet and a last person, and the things they think about are left to the corresponding chooser..." Jiang Baimian said with emotion and amusement, "My previous understanding of'anti-intellectualism' It’s still too shallow. They are doing the same in the sect's backbone of the Awakened group. It’s the unity of knowing and doing..."
What spirit is this!
While sighing, Jiang Baimian's eyes found that Shang Jian Yaoyin was a little bit ready to move.
She has every reason to suspect that this guy wants to compete for the identity of a true "priest".
Although Jiang Baimian doesn’t think he will be able to use the “inference clown” to fix the true “priest”, and may even be reversely “hypnotized” by the other party or tampering with his memory, the final result may be the true “priest” working hard. To clean up the mess for this fake "priest", after going through many times, he decided to kick him out of the ranks of "priests" with utter disgust. Then he was surprised to find that this guy had taken away all the fake "priests" and regrouped. The "Brotherhood of Priests" only left the true "priest" alone in the same place.
Huh... Jiang Baimian sighed, and decided to put all his thoughts behind.
Since there is no way to know the whereabouts of the real "priest" and Wei Yu from the fake "priest", Jiang Baimian had to turn to ask:
"Have you seen City Lord Xu? Did you ask him the details of the attack?"
She wondered if she could find details that could be traced from this matter.
Odick didn't conceal it, and gave a detailed account of the attack he had learned from Xu Liyan. Of course, this did not include the ability of the mechanical monk Jingnian. Xu Liyan skipped this directly.
Now, he admires Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao's abilities, but thinks that their brains may be a little abnormal, which may be the price to pay.
Similarly, Jiang Baimian believed in his ability to use the influence of his dreams to obtain a confession, and did not ask for a personal trial of the false "priest".
As I listened, Jiang Baimian's expression gradually became serious, but Shang Jianyao's face did not change.
When Odick finished speaking, Shang Jianyao asked excitedly:
"Does Zen Master Jingnian know Master Jingfa?"
"Should know..." Odick replied in a uncertain tone.
Although there are not many mechanical monks, and most of them know each other, he, who is not a mechanical monk, still dare not make a positive judgment.
After this conversation, Jiang Baimian thought about it and said:
"I think there is something wrong with this attack. At least three places seem strange."
"Which three places?" Odick also thought it was weird, but for a while, he couldn't see the problem.
Jiang Baimian started his finger and said:
"First, judging from the timing of the attack and the circumstances at the time, what the fake'priest' did seems to be useless. Whether it is transferring you from the guild or triggering a riot in the wilderness, it will not help the attack itself. , Think about it, under normal circumstances, you would not stay in the guild all the time. You must be looking for clues outside. The riots only affected the city defense army and the city’s main guards. It also affected the Zen Master Jingnian and the four bodyguards in the guild. It deepens the tension a little bit, and they will not be distracted or distracted at all."
"Yeah." Odick agreed.
The plan of true and false "priests" seems very subtle, but when you think about it, the line of false "priests" does not seem to exist at all.
Jiang Baimian bent another finger:
"Secondly, after mastering the true identity and abilities of Zen Master Jingnian through the ‘real illusion’ in advance, the follow-up processing by the true ‘priest’ is simply, almost...
When Shang Jian Yao saw this, he helped to add:
"Like no brain."
Jiang Baimian did not refute, and continued:
"When City Master Xu opened the door, he didn't need to answer at all. Pretending to be a real bodyguard, he should immediately use the'True Illusion' to influence Zen Master Jingnian again, and let the four bodyguards who were'hypnotized' take care of the solution of City Master Xu. Instead of letting go of the most threatening point, swarming against the target.
"If the'priest' adopts this plan, you should only see the portrait of Xu Chengzhu."
Odick thoughtfully said:
"Perhaps, in a hurry,'hypnosis' is not sufficient. He must be guided so that other bodyguards will violate their duties and shoot the city lord?"
This is Zen Master Jingnian's explanation of the situation at that time.
"This is indeed possible." Jiang Baimian raised his third finger. "Let’s not mention whether Christina of the Hunter’s Guild was his companion or was innocent involved. With the resources held by the priest and the backing From the perspective of the forces, his final choice of shooting was too crude.
"At that distance, throw a grenade, get some poison gas, and tie a circle of high-performance remote-controlled bombs invented by the'Orange' company. UU reading www.uukanshu.com, Zen Master Jingnian can't protect it, or it's too late to protect it."
What she meant was that it was not the "priest" himself who got in the bodyguards, but other dead men who were "hypnotized". Anyway, the four bodyguards believed that there were five people in the team-this only needs to be affected by the "real fantasy" Projecting the appearance of the dead man, not the appearance of the priest himself.
"It's really not quite right..." Odick thought about it carefully and felt that if the female hunter on the other side planned it, City Lord Xu would not know how many times he would die.
At this moment, Shang saw Yao slapped his palms and suddenly realized:
"I understand."
Seeing Odick looking at him, he said seriously:
"'Father' is playing with City Lord Xu!"
When the corners of Odick's mouth twitched slightly, Jiang Baimian exhaled:
"It looks like the'priest' doesn't want to kill Xu Chengzhu.
"Then he tried his best to set out his real body to attack City Lord Xu, and why?"
At this moment, a word came to Odick's mind:
"Hypnosis!"
The "priest" tried his best to narrow the distance between himself and Xu Liyan, complete eye contact, and "hypnotize" the other party!
This is also Jiang Baimian’s answer, she asked hurriedly:
"Where is City Lord Xu now?"
"In the Chamber of the Nobles, discuss with all the nobles about dealing with the riots in the Wilderness Rangers..." Odick had just said this, and suddenly wanted to understand one thing.
This may be the meaning of the "priest" causing the riots in the wilderness!
"Go!" Odick turned abruptly and rushed out of the side hall.
At the same time, he took out his cell phone.
