Chapter 1046, Celebration Banquet in the Holy Temple
Chapter 1046, Celebration Banquet in the Holy Temple
What the hell is this world!
The psychological defenses of the top executives of the base on both sides of the conference table completely collapsed, cold sweat covered their foreheads, and they glanced nervously at the several corpses on the ground.
Before the end of the world, there was at least diplomatic rhetoric. Now that there is a conflict, they just rush into the nest?
You should have said you had this ability earlier.
Let’s not talk about this anymore.
Just as Wu Heng sat down, he glanced at a few people and then suddenly looked towards the rooftop outside the window.
Bang~!
The tempered glass window suddenly exploded into a spider web shape, and a bullet came straight at it.
And when it flew into the conference room, the bullet hovered above the conference table, wrapped in a layer of flowing water film.
Light blue ripples spread in the air, and the bullet spun rapidly in the water curtain but could not penetrate it.
Clang.
As the bullet hit the ground, the sniper on the roof of the opposite building had his neck broken.
Dong dong dong~!
There was a dull sound of falling to the ground. Outside the door of the conference room, it was as if rows of heavy objects had fallen to the ground, and snoring sounds could be heard.
Wu Heng flicked the shell on the conference table to the middle with his fingers and his eyes fell on the man opposite.
Emmett Rothschild!
The leader of Noah's City had his photo and some introduction posted in the forum. The face in the photo, with the standard smile of a politician, formed a sharp contrast with his pale face at the moment.
"Emmett." Wu Heng called out his name, and then said, "Tell me about the solution."
The son of the former Secretary of State suddenly straightened his back.
The hands hidden under the table were frantically clicking on their phones, but the bodyguards outside seemed to have disappeared.
"It is true that Lord Wu Heng made a sudden visit..." Emmett's Adam's apple rolled and he found his voice disappeared halfway through his words.
I touched my lips in horror, and they were as smooth as a complete piece of skin.
Wu Heng said: "Whatever I ask, you answer it. Next time it's your life that will disappear."
When his lips reappeared, Emmett's elite tone was completely broken, and he couldn't wait to say, "There must be a misunderstanding. We always respect the decision of the Dawn Alliance, and we are willing to support the Spiritual Enlightenment Church..."
"Did you arrange those rumors to slander Lingqi Sect?" Wu Heng interrupted.
"No, absolutely not. We are also investigating this matter." Emmett denied it immediately.
Wu Heng narrowed his eyes at him and said, "You are lying."
After devouring the flesh and blood of the heroes of the Church, he unlocked the priest's characteristic of being able to discern lies [Truth Perception].
It might be difficult to distinguish the other heroes, but these politicians in front of us are not even professionals.
No matter how good the disguise is, it can be easily identified.
The other party frowned and continued, "How is it possible? Noah City still needs to deepen cooperation with Yama Palace. How could it do such a thing?"
"Kill him!" Wu Heng said softly.
Click!
Emmett's neck suddenly twisted 180 degrees, his frozen politician-like smile froze on his face, and his head slammed onto the conference table with a thump.
Chi~! Crash~!
Everyone jumped up in shock, tables and chairs slid down their sides, and some were in a panic.
"Sit down and let's continue talking." Wu Heng said calmly.
He sat back in his seat, his expression even uglier.
"Who is the second in command?" Wu Heng explained, "Except for him, who is the most senior official?"
Everyone looked at the other person.
"what's your name?"
"Igor, hello." The other person stood up and saluted.
He knocked over the water cup when he stood up, his wet suit stuck to his knees, and he was shaking uncontrollably.
……
The church spire cast a long oblique shadow, and the Lingqi priest Fei Feiyang was holding a mobile phone in his hand.
On the lit screen, a text message from Zhao Yanqiu was displayed, "Our people are in the meeting room of the Government Affairs Office, go directly there."
I rely on it!
Fei Feiyang shouted in a low voice, saying that he preferred to preach in the church or browse the forum.
I don't want to argue with these damn politicians. Every time I'm disgusted by their attitude.
He took a deep breath and walked over with his skeleton servant.
"Our leader is discussing something with your top management and asked me to come here." Fei Feiyang repeated the words he had prepared as he walked, so as to avoid arguing with the security guard.
As he pushed open the revolving door, Fei Feiyang frowned.
The hall was silent, with no one in it.
Wrong place?
After exiting the hall, he looked at the sign again to make sure he was in the right place before going upstairs with a frown on his face.
"It can't be that the office location has changed!"
Da da da!
The sound of footsteps echoed in the corridor.
When he reached the third floor and turned into the corridor from the stairs, Fei Feiyang's heart trembled violently.
Guards were lying all over the corridor, their assault rifles still hanging on their chests, and snoring could be heard from under their bulletproof masks.
Sleep... fell asleep?
Fei Feiyang widened his eyes, this was too weird.
It's even weirder than a zombie virus.
"Oh, God..." Fei Feiyang trembled as he stepped over the bodies and continued forward on tiptoe.
Finally I arrived at the door of the conference room, knocked lightly, and opened it after getting a response.
I heard someone inside and opened the door in response.
The moment the door opened, the first thing I saw was the two bodies of the guards at the door.
By this time, almost half of the people on both sides of the long conference table had died.
The seven surviving senior executives huddled in their seats like quails.
The back of the suit of the second person in charge, Igor, was soaked with sweat.
"Pope!" Fei Feiyang saluted immediately.
The leader of the Lingqi Cult is called the Pope, which was discussed by Wu Heng and Granda.
"Repeat the arrangements." Wu Heng said.
"The Lingqi Church will become the state religion of the base." Igor's voice was dry. "All media should immediately stop reporting negative news and fully support the development of the Lingqi Church in the future."
Fei Feiyang clenched his fingers tightly and now understood what was happening.
Their side was being suppressed and slandered, so their leader came to solve the problem.
"Very good." Wu Heng nodded. "Qi Hancai is on her way. From now on, she will be in charge of this place. You will assist her."
"Yes!" the other party nodded.
……
A few hours later.
Qi Hancai's plane arrived at Noah's City and all the work was handed over and arranged.
This is not the first time this has been done, so the process is smoother and the accompanying personnel know what they are supposed to do without being told.
high efficiency.
After the handover was completed, Wu Heng handed over everything here to Qi Hancai and returned by plane.
In the chief's office.
Qi Hancai looked at the map of bases in various places on her mobile phone.
Even if the Yama Palace has no intention of expanding and unifying the world.
But the scale of the entire base is still expanding.
Among the eight major bases of the Dawn Alliance, we now have the right to speak in three of them.
"Even Noah's City has been taken under control. How exaggerated."
……
South Korean Base, Dawn Conference Hall
Inside the huge circular conference hall, a huge screen played the slogan of the Dawn Alliance uniting to fight against the end of the world.
At eight o'clock sharp, all representatives took their seats.
Parliament begins.
The host tapped the table and said softly, "Today's agenda continues from yesterday. Noah's City proposed the 'Legalization of Missions of the Dawn Covenant Church' and the Missionary Restriction Bill. Please vote."
There was silence for two seconds, and everyone looked at the representative of Noah's City.
Seeing that he didn't speak.
The representative of New Eden spoke first, his tone relaxed, "Freedom of religion is a basic human right. As long as it does not cross the line, there is nothing wrong with the Covenant Church preaching."
Russia's 'Vulcan Crucible' also said, "Since the Spiritual Enlightenment Church can preach, there is no reason to restrict the Covenant Church. It's fair competition!"
Two large bases take the lead.
Everyone's eyes turned to the seat of the Yama Palace representative. The person sitting here today was not Qi Hancai, but another senior executive 'Zhu Tonghui'.
Coco, the representative of Yama Palace, still kept his head down, neither rejecting nor agreeing.
Default?
The atmosphere in the venue loosened subtly, and more and more representatives raised their hands in support.
"Then, Noah's City, please finally confirm your proposal." The host looked at the seat of Noah's City.
But the representative of Noah's City had his head buried under the table, his fingers constantly tapping on his phone, as if he was confirming something.
There was sweat on his forehead and his fingers were shaking a little.
The New Eden representative urged, "What are you doing? It's your turn to speak."
The representative of Noah's City suddenly raised his head, his face covered with sweat, and forced a stiff smile, saying: "Noah's City... withdraw the proposal!"
"The Covenant Church is disbanded today, and all clergy members are willing to transfer to the Spiritual Enlightenment Church!"
The whole place fell silent for a moment.
The representatives widened their eyes and looked at the other party's representatives in disbelief.
what happened?
You were lobbying representatives from various bases yesterday, but today you just surrendered?
The representative of New Eden had a gloomy expression on his face. Just as he was about to ask a question, he saw Zhu Tonghui finally raise his head with a faint smile on his lips.
"Since the proposal has been withdrawn, the meeting will continue." Zhu Tonghui said lightly, as if everything was under control.
The host quickly changed the topic: "The next item is to form a rescue team in a remote area. Please vote accordingly."
But at this moment, everyone's mind was not in the meeting.
They stared at the representatives of Noah's City, then secretly glanced at Zhu Tonghui, with only one thought in their minds.
Yama Palace, what exactly did you do?
……
Treasure Island, Wu Heng came down from upstairs.
Just in time for dinner.
The long and slender dining table was already filled with sumptuous food.
The family sat around the dining table, eating and chatting.
"Master!" Minnie said with a smile, "Sister Viola has mastered the first stage of the Body Refining Technique!"
Wu Heng raised his eyebrows and looked towards the other end of the table.
Viola stood up and saluted, "Thanks to you, my Lord and Madam for your guidance."
In the calm voice, one can still hear the unconcealable joy.
"Not bad." Wu Heng nodded in praise, and then said, "Join me for the second stage tomorrow."
"Yes!" Viola replied and sat back in her chair.
Then, Wu Heng continued to chat with Shannara and the others for a while, and after dinner, the women went to the training room for training.
Wu Heng also returned to the study.
Sitting near the window, Granda floated over and said, "No base will dare to cause trouble for Noah's City this time."
"Not necessarily. After a long time, there will always be someone who comes out to try it. This kind of thing is hard to avoid." Wu Heng shook his head.
There is never a shortage of adventurers in any world. When a period of time has passed, new challengers will emerge and try to do something.
"It will be calm for a long time at least. Pay attention to faith in the next two days. If it increases rapidly, let Qi Hancai increase the allocation of resources again and try to speed up the promotion of the church." Granda helped analyze.
"Okay." Wu Heng also agreed with this idea.
At this time, the empress also looked over from the tablet, "I suggest you buy some illusion props. If used well, they may have a good effect."
"What kind of illusion props?" Wu Heng asked curiously.
The queen was an illusionist before her death, so she should know a lot about this.
The Queen said, "For example, it records your mirror image double, or displays some abilities that people in your world believe that gods can display, such as floating in the air to preach doctrines, or creating some wonders."
"I think your suggestion is quite reliable. You and Minnie can go out tomorrow and pick out some props." Wu Heng said directly.
Treasure Island is not short of money anyway, so there is nothing wrong in purchasing some to try.
"My previous suggestions were all unreliable?" The queen raised her eyebrows and continued, "I will take Minnie out to have a look tomorrow and bring back the ones that are suitable."
"Okay!" The two souls chatted for a while.
Xiao Xiao flew back from outside and stopped suddenly to hover on Wu Heng's shoulder, "Uncle is here too!"
Wu Heng put down the cup and asked, "Where did you go to play again?"
"I was playing games with Sister Lilith!" Xiao Xiao turned in the air, "But she suddenly said she wanted to drink, so she sent me back~!"
"Drinking?" Wu Heng looked at her, "Where?"
"It's on the roof of her house." Xiao Xiao held up her cheek, "I really don't understand you adults, what's so good about that thing?"
Wu Heng smiled, took out a piece of clothing from his space ring and put it on, "I'll go see if she has any troubles."
"Yes, yes, come back and tell me if you have any worries." Xiao Xiao said, flew to her own position, controlled the tablet to select cartoons, and looked to the side, "Aunt! Where's Sister Bernie?"
"It seems that he went to the tavern to listen to stories." The queen replied.
"Oh!" Xiaoxiao replied, and then started watching cartoons.
Wu Heng released [Teleportation] and disappeared.
……
The night is as dark as ink, and the silver moon hangs high in the sky.
Lilith sat on the roof in a long Gothic dress with dark patterns. The hem of her skirt spread out like crow feathers, and the glass in her hand shone in the moonlight.
The teleportation array disappeared in a flash, and Wu Heng's figure quietly emerged.
"Drinking alone so late at night?" Wu Heng chuckled and sat down next to her.
Lilith glanced at him sideways, "You know the habits of the vampires!"
Wu Heng took out a wine glass from the space ring and filled the wine jug beside her.
After taking a sip, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Is this wine bad? It tastes like something burnt."
"Dwarven roasted wine." Lilith shook the glass, her lips curled up, "If you don't like it, you can switch to elven honey wine. Children can drink it too."
"It's the dwarven wine. Now that you mention it, it tastes pretty good." Wu Heng poured another glass and handed it over.
Lilith also picked up the wine glass and clinked it with his, and they both drank it.
Lilith said: "Judging from the time, the news about the Yeko Kingdom should have reached the Holy Temple, and the situation will definitely be more serious by then."
Wu Heng also sighed softly, "You've seen it too, there are some things I won't fight to the death for, and that's me."
"I know. I don't mean to blame you. I'm just worried that the situation might get serious and you might be in danger." Lilith sighed softly.
Things have developed to the point where the association can no longer intervene.
The best way is to just ignore it and let them decide the winner.
But since both sides are members of the association, things become difficult to handle.
"We'll take it one step at a time." Wu Heng said with a smile, picked up the wine glass and took another sip, raised his eyebrows, "Huh? You changed the wine? Why does it really taste like honey wine?"
Lilith frowned, "No."
I also picked up the wine glass and took a sip. It was just normal roasted wine.
"Try it!" Wu Heng picked up the wine glass and took a sip. Before the other party could react, he pulled him over and poured the wine into his mouth.
Lilith narrowed her eyes and put her arms on his shoulders.
……
Temple.
Inside the main hall, the crystal chandeliers make the gilded reliefs appear brilliant and dazzling.
The long table was covered with silk embroidered with golden holy patterns, and sumptuous dishes were placed next to the silver tableware.
The Pope sat in the main seat, his white and gold robe flowing with holy light, "Don't worry, Chief Claudio. This action is only aimed at Wu Heng personally."
The leader of the Hongwen Society, Claudio, glanced at his watch.
"You have violated the rules of the association by doing this." Claudio finally spoke, "You killed Wu Heng today. If someone kills your hero in the future, it will be difficult for the association to intervene."
Claudio sent a letter to the association, but a reply would take time.
He had not received any news about what was happening outside.
The Pope smiled and said softly, "The Holy See is capable of handling it."
Claudio narrowed his eyes and stopped talking.
The busy priests came in and out, making final preparations for the celebration banquet.
suddenly!
The palace door was knocked open.
A priest came in hurriedly and saluted, "Your Majesty, there is news from the Kingdom of Yeko."
