On the second floor of the Chenxi Activity Center building, in the spacious and clean reception room, the atmosphere was slightly dull and depressing.
Five saints, more than twenty fourth-level powerhouses and some veteran dignitaries sat around a long brown table. There were probably more than 40 people in total.
Renn raised the ice wine on the table and took a sip. After looking around for a week, he found that everyone was not in a good mood.
There was an inexplicable battle. Many people were still wearing colorful clothes, and their clothes were torn or stained with blood. They looked quite embarrassed, but they gained very little.
Not to mention Chris, who was the best in the game, except for the old goat and Ren who teamed up to kill the werewolf Brewster, only the singer Eddie and Viscount Hope successfully killed a demon marquis.
At the same level, demons are difficult to kill. Werewolves have rough skin and thick flesh, and their explosive power is amazing. Vampires have wings and can fly quickly, and they are also proficient in blood escape. Demons and ghosts are semi-spirits and can escape at an alarming speed...
Therefore, most people returned empty-handed, which also made Renn admire Jenny's father with admiration. Viscount Hope's strength can be seen from the ability to complete a single kill under unfavorable terrain conditions.
"Pal, what are you hiding?" Cardinal Anthony stared at Pal on the throne and asked loudly.
The expression on Parr's cold and hard face was still sparse, with an attitude of saying whatever you like.
He stared at the urn-shaped glass lantern on the ceiling without saying a word. At first, he just asked everyone to wait for a while, and he has maintained this posture.
This completely indifferent attitude made the cardinal furious. The church lost a fourth-level [Knight of the Golden Rose] this time!
'These damn heretics should all be purified! '
Anthony cursed in his heart, but after all, this is not the Saint Joan Empire, but a country that does not respect the goddess very much. If others don't respect him, there is nothing he can do against them.
"Tsk, tsk, it's really satisfying to see the magic sticks defeated." The old goat smiled happily and murmured in a low voice.
He wasn't the only one who didn't mind the trouble. Many people looked like they were just sitting back and watching the big bosses fight. Being silent in itself represented a stance.
Ren slowly tasted the taste of the ice wine in the glass, looked at Cardinal Anthony who was glaring at Parr, and whispered to the old goat beside him:
"It is true that demons are everyone's common enemy, but to say that humans are monolithic is a complete joke.
How many people and forces there are, how many interests and struggles there will be. Conflicts are inevitable. Where you sit determines what your head thinks. "
The feud between Farolan and St. Joan can be traced back to the era of William the Conqueror. During this period, various conflicts and frictions continued. Few of the Farolan people present liked the Church of Light.
When a paladin of the church died, more people gloated than sympathized with the church, and the old goat almost stopped whistling.
"Boy, don't act so old-fashioned, can I still understand? Which side you choose to stand on is far more important than right and wrong.
People who don't understand this can only say that they are too young. If Anthony burped today, someone would open a bottle of champagne to celebrate. "The old goat put his hand on Ren's shoulder and said in the tone of an experienced person.
Ren was dumbfounded. This was really possible. He had come into contact with some officials from Farolland and knew their style of doing things. In short, they were very stubborn, especially those of the older generation.
Director Jones of Bu Shen City decisively led people to kill Gordon, who was about to hold a promotion ceremony; Inspector Omar tried to eliminate the demons hidden in Orange Town.
Carlos, the "gun ghost" of the Firebird Bar, teamed up with him to intercept Frank and Cullo; and the "Dark Knight" Parr in front of him now, both have that kind of military-style iron-blooded style.
Da da da~~
A rush of footsteps broke the calm in the living room. A punisher from the 7th Bureau opened the door and handed a report paper to Parr.
After a quick glance, Parr finally said: "The enemy chose to kill Earl Wilton because of some historical relics in his storage ring. The demon planned to..."
He told everyone present that the demon camp was trying to find some ancient force weapons, special objects or related documents to study the weaknesses of human extraordinary professions and rune systems.
At this moment, everyone's faces, including Ren's, became a little ugly. This deliberately targeted move by the demon camp made everyone feel threatened.
The cardinal reached out and took the report from Pal's hand, and learned that Duke Aaron planned to steal the fragments of Singer's Holy Sword, possibly using them to study the initial runes of the Holy Power.
Anthony's expression suddenly changed, and he stood up with a loud voice: "Everyone, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, please take a step in advance."
Not caring to continue blaming Pal, he hurriedly walked out of the living room. Compared with this kind of thing that might shake the foundation of the entire church, the death of the paladin was nothing to mention.
Parr watched him leave. Strictly speaking, he did not target the cardinal today. He ignored the death of the paladin because there were things that were much more important than that.
He said in a deep voice: "In the recent period, all museums or similar places in the kingdom must undergo certain rectifications.
Also, those items belonging to your family or individuals that are valuable for researching demons must be stored properly. Earl Wilton died because of this.
Everyone, I have to remind you that the war situation in the Sixth Age is far more severe than you think, and no one can survive this wave alone. "
Everyone's expressions were solemn, and some were thoughtful. The lack of all-out war in the Fifth Age made some people have unrealistic illusions, but now everything has been exposed.
"Everyone, I'm sorry for taking a step ahead." Ranger Luo Qing stood up, bowed slightly to everyone, and walked away.
Regarding the research on various materials about extraordinary professionals, the natural school has the most preserved materials, and now some storage locations are obviously unsafe.
Soon, the Templar-level Iron Wall Warrior from the Steam Alliance and Chris from the Demon Hunter Association also resigned first.
After glancing at the gloomy faces of everyone, Parr said in an indifferent tone: "There is also some confidential information that will be shared with you soon. I hope that in a few years, you will still be alive and sitting here."
The words were plain and simple, but they could not hide the sense of depression and awe-inspiring murderous intent that the storm was about to come.
The meeting ended quickly, and many people left with heavy hearts, digesting today's news in their minds.
Of course, not everyone is worried. There are also people who are worried about the world being in chaos, such as Ren and Lao Goat.
"Master Ren, I'm afraid the demon is going to take action this time. Are you afraid?
Anyway, I am a little scared, tsk tsk, and I am considering whether to find a cave to hide. "The old goat said with a very exaggerated expression, as if the baby was very scared.
Ren looked at his palm and said in a calm tone: "You don't care about life and death. If you don't accept it, do it. Master Nicholas, have you heard the story of two mercenaries?"
"I would like to hear the details." The old goat replied with great interest.
Under the night, the two of them walked side by side to the hotel where they were staying.
Ren clenched his fists and smiled: "The story is very simple. Because there are rewards for killing enemy soldiers, two young people chose to become mercenaries.
After a fierce and chaotic battle, they accidentally broke into the enemy's military camp and could be exposed at any time.
One young man cried and said, We are finished.
Another young man smiled and said, we are rich. "
