Chapter 613 Application
"That's it. I want to hear your opinions now."
After Neo finished speaking, he lowered his head and started eating noodles. All the few ingredients left were given to him.
Vernon and Helen looked at each other, and then he said: "This is too sudden for us, please allow us to..."
"Huh..." Neo took a sip of the tomato-flavored noodle soup and put down the spoon, "You seem to have made a mistake. I just want to hear your opinions, not to ask for your consent."
Helen looked at Neo and said, "Don't we even have the right to choose?"
Neo nodded and said, "You can choose whether to put tomatoes in the noodle soup tonight. As for your choice of life path, believe me, not many people in this world have the truly free right to choose."
Vernon said, "So, can we consider this a form of coercion?"
"Nonsense, I'm just threatening you, haven't you heard it yet?"
Vernon shook his head and said, "It's hard for me to accept someone like you as a leader."
Neo said unceremoniously: "Yes, the last friendly leader is dead."
Vernon: "..."
Neo: "In order to protect you from being hunted by the Cult of Kosmos, he even raised a tower of light to attract attention before he died. I thought that after this incident, you would lose some of your unnecessary innocence, but it is a pity. , you don’t.
In addition, I feel that as subordinates and students, letting your leader or teacher die to protect you is a dereliction of duty on your part, and it reflects that you two are useless. "
"I don't allow you to talk about our mentor like that!"
"Snapped!"
Neo poured all the remaining noodle soup in the bowl onto Vernon's face. Although he would secretly help patients with light therapy on weekdays, Vernon, who had not done anything for a long time, had gradually forgotten that he was once a light warrior. fact, so he didn't have time to block it and was directly doused.
"Idiot, I'm scolding you, not your mentor!"
Alfred, who had been sitting silently on the edge, silently took out a clean handkerchief and handed it to Helen, motioning for her to wipe it with Vernon, and then continued to return to the previous position.
Vernon pushed away Helen's hand that wanted to wipe it for him, pointed at his face, and said:
"I know what you plan to do, I know it very well, but I'm tired of it. I don't want to be used by others anymore. I don't want to be a knife in other people's hands. I don't even know that I was betrayed by others!"
"Okay, I take back what I just said. You have made progress, but not much."
Neo took the handkerchief from Alfred from Helen, folded it, wiped the corners of his mouth carefully, then stood up, aiming his breath at Vernon, bursting out instantly.
When Vernon saw this, he immediately condensed a layer of light armor on his body, but Neo just reached forward and grabbed it. Vernon's light armor melted directly, turning into a ball of pure light power that Neo held in his palm.
Immediately afterwards, Neo slapped him in the opposite direction.
"boom!"
The light force turned into a whip and whipped Vernon to the ground.
Seeing this, Helen next to her subconsciously opened her hands to prepare for the concentration technique, but when Neo glanced at her, Helen's hands froze for a moment and she stopped resisting.
There was a threat in Neo's eyes, which meant that if he dared to tease him again, he would really kill him.
Neo is a professional when it comes to threatening people. His every move and look can have a very good effect;
Otherwise, Karen wouldn't have had to imitate him outside the Whip of Order headquarters building.
After all, Neo is a real hunting dog. The line between someone who likes to have fun and someone who likes to go crazy is very blurred, and the thing that people are most afraid of and dare not stimulate is a lunatic.
Vernon did not choose to continue to resist. As soon as they fought, he sensed the huge gap in strength between the two sides.
Neo looked condescendingly at Vernon lying on the ground and said, "I've said before, in fact, you don't have the right to choose. Do you think your quiet time during this period will last forever?
Do you think you can live your life here like an ordinary person and all the troubles will be far away from you?
Don't be naive.
If you treat those people with light magic, the aura of light will definitely remain on their bodies, and there is no guarantee that they will be discovered by some church personnel and reported to them one day.
In addition, although you are not preaching, preaching does not necessarily require brainwashing by giving speeches and repeating the same words every day like those magicians. Your actions and your further understanding of the light are actually more important than words. Through sharp preaching, they will slowly begin to sow the seeds of light in their hearts. They will begin to yearn for the light, and eventually, they will praise the light on their lips. "
Hearing this, Vernon instantly remembered what Arif said when he saw him today: "I had a premonition that you were coming today, because when I got up in the morning, I was woken up by the sunlight coming in from the gap in the roof, hehe. "
Neo continued: "It can't be hidden. It can't be hidden at all. There was a fierce internal fight between the Whip of Order and the Regional Management Office some time ago. They relaxed some jurisdictions and ignored some information. But now, the battle is over. , the Whip of Order will usher in a real period of development, and it will really play a role in alerting the surroundings.
Do you know what the consequences will be once things here are discovered?
You and your sister Helen may be able to sense it in advance and try to escape.
But can you take the people here and escape with you?
These ordinary people who have the aura of light left in their bodies will be regarded as the remnants of the light. Those who are influenced by you and start to praise the light will be recognized as followers of a cult.
They're going to be treated... treated in various ways, like a piece of bad land, a stained floor, it's going to be completely eradicated.
Therefore, don't always feel that you are wronged, and don't naively think that you can just throw away your hands and choose to avoid it.
Or, you go to the islands deep in the sea to preach in places where the church is weak;
Since you choose to be active in the city, you must be worthy of the things you have done and... those who sincerely believe in you. "
Vernon and Helen were silent. They had never thought about this before. The people they helped might eventually die because of their help, even those people's family members, neighbors, and colleagues.
The laws of secular countries may still discuss with you whether to sit together, but in church circles, there is no debate at all. The simplest and most efficient way to prevent the resurgence of your faith is... to kill as many of your believers as possible.
After the Qihe case was exposed, the original slave family that once held Allen Manor breathless was wiped out by the God of Order in an instant. This is the best example.
Vernon asked, "Are you going to report it?"
"Your question is really an idiot. Of course, if you don't agree with my suggestion and become members of my secret office, I guarantee you that a large number of Order Priests will appear here tomorrow to clean up."
"But if we follow you, can you guarantee their safety?"
"Not only them, if you want to continue to help other people in the future, I can protect even those people."
"Why should I trust you?"
"Now, we are the ones who fire the whip of order in the York City Region."
Vernon: "..."
Neo walked back to the table and poured himself a glass of water. There was no tea in it. After taking a sip, he continued: "I can understand your current thinking. You may feel that you have found the true meaning of light. You are tired of fighting, fighting, being used, and being destroyed. You long for freedom and peace.
I once had a friend who was just like you, but I don't think you could be him.
In addition, in my understanding, light has strong and weak distinctions, but it always insists on walking in a straight line. "
Vernon and Helen began to chew on Neo's words.
"I'll give you one day to finish things here. Come meet me at the cafe I told you the day after tomorrow, and I'll make formal arrangements for you two.
You shouldn't be very busy at ordinary times. You can even open a small clinic to help people treat patients. This is my last tolerance for you two idiots. "
Neo opened the door and walked out. Alfred got up and walked out with him.
After the two people got into the car, Neo sighed:
“Sometimes it’s really incredible. Even though the remnants of the light have been suppressed for nearly a thousand years, there is still no shortage of people who have sincere faith in the light. On the contrary, according to my observation, the proportion of pure believers is getting bigger and bigger.
It is as if the suppression that has lasted for thousands of years has removed the impurities in the light, and gradually the purest crystal remains. "
Alfred drove the car and said nothing.
Neo continued with emotion: "What's even more unbelievable is that such a divine religion will actually perish, alas."
Alfred glanced at Neo, then continued driving.
Neo took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a puff: "So, before his death, Lord Teixin proposed to the high priest how to deal with the remnants of the light. The suggestions were really powerful. The era of blind suppression is over. , if you continue to suppress them, you are really helping them forge their essence, so you have to slow down your hand first and take the initiative to add sand to them.
This, if you don’t want to accept it, to use a Wien proverb, it’s like the old sauce vat, everything is there. "
Alfred finally said: "Please pay attention to your emotional stance."
"Hehehe." Neo laughed out loud and turned to look at Alfred, "I'm so laughing that you actually said such a thing to me, and you didn't even pull down the rearview mirror to take a look at yourself."
"I'm just reminding you that the young master's position has never changed. On the contrary, it has deepened."
"Then you are still helping me like this? Even if Karen has spoken, you can actually just deal with it."
"No, I think any power that emerges independently under the system of the Order of God is extremely valuable. This is a lesson learned from the last incident.
We may be able to rely on the system of the Cult of Kosmos and gain seemingly powerful power, but in fact, when you actually face the higher-ups and conflicts break out, all of that power will leave you.
Just like Bernie and Harry, when an order is given, they have to accept the outcome of being transferred. "
"You want to be like Bourne?"
"Didn't Bourne also hand over the command of the garrison? What I want, and what the young master wants, is power completely in his own hands. The next main goal is to develop these."
Neo nodded, stretched his hand out the window, shook out the ashes, and cursed:
"I keep saying that I look like a lunatic, but in fact you are the lunatic. I asked, is it really so attractive to have a mural on it? Why can't I realize it?"
"Then I won't leave a place for you."
"you dare!"
…
"Wow, it's really hard to imagine that my little Karen has become a minister. It really moved me to tears. I finally lived up to the promise I made to your grandpa before I went out."
Pu'er said while rubbing his eyes with his flesh paws.
Karen reached out to pick up Pu'er, touched its fur, and wondered: "Why does it feel heavier again?"
"Meow!"
"It seems that you are living a good life during this period. You can eat and sleep well."
"Oh, you know that sometimes worries, worries and other emotions must be released and relieved. The most effective way is to eat and sleep. If I am overweight, then the extra part will be heavy on you. care."
"Okay, I've experienced it."
"Master, what do you want to eat for dinner? I bought fresh carp."
"Is there any tofu at home?" Karen asked.
"Yes, they have all been moved here."
"Then let's make some soup."
"Understood, Master, please wait a moment."
Now, Karen's family has moved to a building next to the headquarters building. This is considered a staff dormitory, but Karen's family occupies three houses, each with three bedrooms and one living room.
A room is dedicated as a kitchen. Ordinary kitchens definitely don't need such a large area, but the Karen family's kitchen will prepare and store a lot of ingredients themselves, and the space is really small.
One room was converted into a two-bedroom suite. The older one was for Karen and Pu'er Kevin, and the other one was for Hilly.
The third room is purely used as a study and also serves as a meeting hall.
Because he was promoted too quickly, Karen had to leave his luxuriously decorated office. Fortunately, that office was reserved for Alfred, which was considered rotten in the pot.
But being a minister always has a lot of privileges, one of which is that no one dares to record even if he is absent from work, so Karen can sleep at home until he wakes up naturally, then go into the study after dinner, and combine the study and meeting The living room is used as an office space, and other relevant personnel come here to report work.
Anyway, this place and the headquarters building are right next to each other, and they are all protected by defensive formations. Find a reporter to propagate that it is not Minister Karen and the miners who are slacking off at work, but hardworking and working hard even at home.
"It's really like a dream. Dis has always been the judge. You really let me see a different scenery, Karen."
"Grandpa just doesn't care about that."
"Actually, it's not that he doesn't care at all, but it's because of his personality." Pu'er held his meat claws, "When he was young, he was really a bit energetic. His temper was good to his family, but not to outsiders. Just a little bit of that, you know. You are different..."
"um, yes."
"Like him, you also look down on people outside, but you are better at pretending than him. Even though you are still condescending in your heart, you can make people around you think that you value him and are his most sincere friend."
"I haven't seen you for a while, your little mouth feels like it just ate a mouse."
"This is a fact. I saw Aleye on the day we moved. He was the one who opened the agency in front of Allen's apartment where he used to live."
"Yeah, I remember."
"He always said Master Cullen was his best friend."
"Is not it?"
"And you didn't even tell him where your new home was."
"Is there any?"
"It was only when we moved that he found out that we had been living in a funeral home."
"Oh, that was an oversight on my part."
"I think you did it on purpose. You were afraid of trouble."
"There is a profiling room under the department, which is specially used to analyze cases. Do you need me to recommend you to go there?"
"I'm not going."
"Then shut your mouth. I originally planned to make pickled fish tomorrow."
"Stupid dog, go get me tape, I want to seal my mouth!"
When Karen walked out of the bedroom and was about to go to the study, he happened to see Leon walking over.
There are three floors here, which are basically dormitories for people from your own side. Everyone lives very close to each other.
"Come back?" Karen asked with a smile.
"Yes, Minister, my bereavement leave is officially over today and I'm back to work."
Leon seemed to be in good spirits. This was not an act. The main reason was that his grandfather had done a lot for him before he left.
"You will still be my secretary."
"Okay, Minister."
Alfred is too busy. He is now the first office director and is also taking care of many line jobs around him. It would be inappropriate for him to stay with him as his secretary.
Leon is quite suitable, and he is already on Alfred's next batch of believers' inspection list. Karen has read this list, and there is "Vic" in it.
Karen walked into his study, just as the phone rang, he answered the phone.
"Master, can I transfer the call for you from the chief's office?"
"Okay, transfer it."
Soon, Bourne's voice came from the other end of the phone:
"Congratulations, Secretary Cullen."
"Congratulations to you too, Chief Sir."
"I have something to inform you. Your application has been received. I am applying to be a partner in the Crypt Cult."
"Um?"
"I took a look, and the specifications are very high. You need to go there in person, because under this specification, some really powerful guys in the Crypt Cult should be attracted by it."
"Did you apply for it for me?"
"The old chief activated the highest authority before he died and got the opportunity to directly face the high priest. You know this.
In addition, he also left a suicide note. In fact, it is not a suicide note, but it should be called a work report. He made a detailed summary of his work gains and losses in recent years and the matters that need to be accounted for after his death.
In it, he didn't mention a word about the arrangements for his family, namely Leon.
But an application form for your Crypt Cult partner is attached. "
