Enforcer's Handbook

The owner of the manor calls himself Omero, and he once served as a historian in the royal city. His understanding of the history of Atlantis is much deeper than most people.

"Due to the series of policies promulgated by the king and the propaganda of the Tide Church, not many people in this city remember what happened here."

Omero packed up the cellar for Paladin and others. There is plenty of space here and can accommodate up to a dozen people.

It takes some time to contact the Freemasons of Refugees, and until they send people over, the refugees on land will temporarily live in the cellars of the manor.

Paladin was surprised that the king and the Lord of Tides did not notice Omero's actions, and Omero explained that perhaps the sages of Atlantis were protecting him.

The current king of Atlantis is named Zero. He was appointed as the head of the house during the most prosperous period of the Kingdom of Atlantis. The last order he received was to escort the princess, old and weak women and children by boat to the other side of the ocean. continent, but Zero betrayed the king's trust and surrendered to the Lord of Tides.

In return, the Tidelord granted him near-eternal life and allowed him to rule the Lost Kingdom for thousands of years.

Omero recounted these dusty histories, "Zero founded the Tidal Church and established it as the state religion. He himself held the positions of king and archbishop. The changes that have happened to us are his 'masterpiece' , this is his way of showing his loyalty to the Lord of Tides.”

Strictly speaking, they are no longer human, having transformed under the influence of the Tide Lord into some other species that has never been recorded.

"Zero then 'corrected' history, shaping Paladin into a sinner who defied the will of the gods and pushed Atlantis into the abyss of eternal destruction. The ignorant royal family also became the promoter of the whole thing. , so their descendants will have to suffer the punishment of the Lord of Tides on land for generations to repay the crimes committed by their ancestors. In the new history, Zero became the wisest king. His decision brought a glimmer of life to this kingdom that was about to collapse. Everyone must express their gratitude to him, and he also has the power of life and death over everything in this kingdom."

The "Emperor" tried to understand the current laws of this sunken kingdom. Not surprisingly, the current legal system also stayed within the framework of a thousand years ago, and it could not be implemented fairly and justly most of the time.

The king could execute anyone at will and deprive anyone of his property.

When they first arrived in the royal city, they witnessed a public execution in the square. The person who was beheaded was a Tide Cultist. No one even knew what crime he had committed.

However, in the current situation where the mechanical army was facing a formidable enemy, Zero stayed in the palace to hold a banquet, showing a mediocre king to the extreme.

According to the results retrieved by the operating system, Zero already has all the characteristics of the last king.

At this moment, the voice in his head appeared again without warning, "RT4 decided to take action in three days. If you plan to sneak into the prison to rescue the princess, that day is the perfect time."

After that, she complained again, "The technological level here is so backward that we can't use our hands and feet at all. Can you believe it? They haven't even set up an internal network, and they still have to rely on communication from distant places. Fish and messengers are simply a group of primitive people!”

At the end, she did not forget to mock Zero, "No wonder they can't find the refugees on land as long as they flee to edge cities."

"Then what is your plan? Help us rescue the princess and then hand her over to RT4?"

"Of course not, why should I help her?"

"Aren't you all in the same group? We came here just to find the secret treasure."

"She and I are not on the same team, and I don't care whether it can complete the task. My mother has never asked me to do this."

"Mother?"

The "Emperor" was thoughtful. He guessed that this title did not refer to RT6's biological mother. She was the same as the "Father God" mentioned by Diego.

But, mechanical creations also have gods they believe in?

"When mother wants to see you, she will naturally appear in front of you."

"So, what is the task your mother gave you?"

"Study and Research."

"What kind of study and research?"

"It's none of your business, do you care?"

RT6 has a bad tone.

The "Emperor" always felt that after the incident in the first area, the genius mechanic's attitude towards him became more and more rude, but maybe this time it was her true nature.

In the past, she had to hide it due to her identity, but now that the entire mechanical army has been discovered, she no longer needs to hide it.

Seeing the "Emperor" fall into silence, RT6 realized that his tone just now was a bit too much, and regretted it, so he answered his question, "The possibility of studying genes, machinery and psychic energy."

"That's why you took advantage of me."

The "Emperor" suddenly realized.

Before having his entire body replaced with machinery, he was the Union Government's leading psychic.

"We each have our own needs, and you are not at a disadvantage. What I replaced for you is a prosthetic body that is absolutely suitable for you and will not cause any side effects. Take the recent incident as an example. If I hadn't replaced this body for you, Prosthetic body, you have died ten times or eight times."

Even without meeting each other, the "Emperor" could imagine RT6's arrogant look. She snorted and said, "Don't think there is anything remarkable about six-star rescuers. You can only be regarded as the best among human beings. This There are many people in the world who are stronger than you."

"The operating system tells me that you are PUAing me."

"Who cares about you, PUA? I'm just telling the truth. Take your current situation as an example. If you can beat his messenger, it's considered to be an extraordinary performance. If you fight against him, you won't even have a chance to escape! Look! Come on, you haven't learned the lesson from the first area. You are not even the opponent of that botanist. I can responsibly tell you that the Lord of Tides is much more powerful than the 'god' that the botanist serves."

Although the atmosphere of the conversation was not friendly, it was the first time they talked about something other than "work".

Combined with what RT4 called him, "Emperor" suddenly understood the reason why RT6 was angry in the first area, but he felt that the reason was a bit subtle.

RT6's mission is to study the possibility of genes, machinery and psychic energy, and his existence is the result of the fusion of psychic energy and machinery. Even the "conceptual weapons" proposed by the psychic energy research institute were born based on his template. product.

And his behavior of confronting Triss may very well lead to the destruction of RT6's research results. This is no different from destroying her years of research results in front of a researcher.

"Sorry, I'll take that into consideration later."

"Who, who needs your apology? With my level, I can make another one at any time after you are smashed!"

"But you didn't stop me this time...and when we were on land, we encountered an envoy sent by the Lord of Tides. It was just a bit bigger, and maybe not as powerful as you thought."

"You were clearly hiding behind others and pretending to be powerful. At that time, RT4 lost three airships to completely kill an envoy!"

RT6 raised her tone, and refuting the "Emperor" seemed to have become her interest.

The "Emperor" has long been aware of this and has mastered the method of communicating with this genius mechanic. Of course, he knows that the disappearance of the messenger is the work of the "Father God" mentioned by Diego. He hopes to use RT6 to Understand how it all connects.

Each god seems to have their messenger.

Triss is to the God of Plants, the sea monster is to the Lord of Tides, RT4 and RT6 are to the God of Machinery, and the Aura Troupe who lured him to the Misty Islands.

If the power system is divided, these messengers should belong to the same level.

But he, and the shadows who are equal to him, are slightly inferior to these messengers.

The "Emperor" recorded what he had concluded, and then asked his questions along the way, "So, who is stronger between the 'Father God' mentioned by Diego and the Lord of Tides?"

"have no idea."

The "Emperor" used the provocation method, "I thought there was nothing you didn't know."

"His situation is very special. Even his mother has always avoided talking about him."

Through the consciousness of the "King", she already knew the true identity of the god, but it was different from any other god she knew. The person named Song Lan usually looked like an ordinary office worker. "The King" "I've been by his side these days, but I haven't found out why.

What makes RT6 even more strange is that not long ago, his mother ordered RT4 to evacuate people from District 17. He seemed to want to avoid antagonism with the other party as much as possible.

"In other words, your mother and the Lord of Tides are on the same level..."

"That's nonsense!"

The conclusion reached by the "Emperor" made RT6 seem to be greatly offended. She corrected, "There is no need for mother to do the tides herself. What really makes mother care is to create their existence!"

She remembered her mother saying that the existence of the Lord of Tides and the God of Plants was like a cancer corroding their world. One of the tasks of RT4 was to clean out the cancer's minions from the world.

These words brought the "Emperor"'s thinking to a standstill, and his theory was overturned.

"You mean, even the Lord of Tides is just his messenger?"

This discovery immediately made his identity extremely embarrassing.

After such conversion, wouldn't he have slipped down another level and become a T4 level?

And RT6's identity also moved up a notch, becoming an existence two levels higher than him.

RT6 suddenly seemed to have seen through the "Emperor's" mind and comforted, "It doesn't matter. For a mortal, you have done a good job."

One hundred and sixty-seven of the small theater:

It was early morning on Thursday, a certain day of a certain month of a certain year.

In order to overthrow Lu Xiang's brutal rule, Song Lan gathered together those warriors who dared to resist.

They are:

Insect Swarm Staff Officer, Medelle.

Top hacker, Bai Zhu.

Arms tycoon, Graves.

The person who comes to eat and drink is Ye Heron.

"Yelu, can you go out for a while? This occasion is not suitable for you."

Song Lansai gave Ye Lu a bag of snacks, and the little girl left with satisfaction.

"What kind of fuss are you two getting into, a situational play?"

Madele was the first to speak in the meeting. She had seen through everything, "Please be a little considerate of us. We are usually very busy."

"Haven't you noticed that Lao Lu is everywhere, even her informants are everywhere on the Internet!"

"Why, you were discovered by Lu Xiang while browsing some small websites?"

Bai Zhu asked curiously.

"How is that possible? Am I that kind of person?"

"That's true."

Bai Zhu remembered the last time she and Lu Xiang looked through Song Lan's browsing history. He had never been on those small websites, but he had started searching a lot for health information at a young age, and in this matter , Song Lan really didn’t need to browse, after all, she heard that Lu Xiang even bought a nano-tight combat suit and took it home.

"This can't go on like this. I want to hear your opinions."

Song Lan crossed her arms over her chest with a serious look on her face.

"indeed."

Bai Zhu thoughtfully said, "According to my experience, every time you resist will end in failure, so I suggest that next time you can skip the battle of wits and go directly to the defeat scene."
