It is said that I convince people with reason

The Pope, who rarely appears in public, is rarely seen.

For a moment, everyone looked at him in different ways.

But most people's eyes were filled with excitement and excitement. Whether it was out of the ambition to climb up in an organization or out of the piety of true believers, no one wanted to perform well in front of the Pope and gain his attention.

Mixed in the excited and enthusiastic eyes of so many people, it was not surprising that several eyes from the corners also looked very excited. Logically speaking, they would not attract Yuan Buwei's attention.

But Yuan Buwei noticed it.

Not only did he notice it, he also cast his eyes silently and saw three black-robed people standing together. Like every devout and fanatical believer, they looked at Yuan Buwei with excitement.

——There was no way, these people were too strong in Yuan Buwei's perception. It was like three bright lights in the dark night, which he couldn't ignore even if he wanted to.

"A sense of déjà vu..."

Inexplicably, Yuan Buwei recalled the feeling that he suddenly had not long ago. It seemed that there was an existence of the same level that indirectly connected with him.

So, the reason for his feeling at that time was these people, because they came to his territory and obviously missed him?

"——People sent by the True God Church? Or, tools of the World Devouring Snake???"

Obviously not completely in line with this world, with the breath of the laws of other worlds outside the void, but outsiders who were not rejected by this world... The only ones who could make such an arrangement, except for the world consciousness of this world itself, were the World Devouring Snake, which had already controlled most of the authority of this world.

What surprised Yuan Buwei the most was that these three people had a very familiar breath on them. It was clearly the same breath as the Devil's Seed.

The demon seed contains a trace of Dao, and is a positioning mark cast by a great Dao master.

It is impossible that another great Dao master forcibly marked the tool man of the Devouring World Snake? !

The only explanation is that the demon seed originally came from the Devouring World Snake, and is a special prop used by the Devouring World Snake to mark and transmit tool men. Just like System 999 to the mechanical master.

If Yuan Buwei guessed correctly, as long as the demon seed is awakened, it is equivalent to joining the Devouring World Snake. While the whole person is marked by Him, he can also enter and exit this world freely.

The relic passed down by the Red King turned out to be a prop used by the Devouring World Snake to mark tool men? ? ?

This means that Yuan Buwei's previous guess was indeed true. The heroic deeds of the thirteen sin kings back then were indeed directed and performed by the Devouring World Snake.

However, since the Red King did not choose to use the Demon Seed, and wanted to destroy it several times, and finally chose to leave it as a relic to his descendants, and told them to use it only when the world was facing destruction, this means that he is not a complete traitor.

His position is likely to be between the black and white lines. For some reason, he learned the truth of the world and received the gift of this Demon Seed. He is the protagonist of the era, and he is indeed good enough. It is not surprising that he was recruited by the World Devouring Snake.

However, the Red King did not choose to betray this world, but he also had no hope for the future of this world. In the struggle between hope and despair, loyalty and betrayal, he chose to escape and leave this choice to his descendants... Maybe this is human nature, right?

The deception that he still couldn't forget before his death, claiming that the truth was only despair, the demon seed that was not destroyed after several hesitations, the mark of the world-devouring snake...

When all the clues were in front of him, the truth was about to come out--

When the evil god came, the world was hit hard, and the protagonist of the era who was favored by the world became the hero who repelled the evil god, but in the end he found that everything was just a deception, and found that the truth of the world was hopeless despair.

The evil god extended an olive branch to him, and he was silent.

He was unwilling to tell the truth and destroy the world's hopes, nor was he willing to betray the world that gave birth to him and raised him. In the struggle between reason and emotion, human selfishness prevailed. He died as a hero fighting for this world, but left the olive branch of the evil god to his descendants, giving them another way out in the future.

--When the world is completely in despair, they will be able to choose to board the evil god's ark and enter the land of hope.

"Rumor has it that the Red King loves his grandson very much... He really has good intentions."

Yuan Buwei could only sigh.

There was no obvious emotion in his tone.

But his eyes staring at the three people were obviously full of strong interest, even Ibet noticed it.

Yuan Buwei just stood there, his eyes fixed on them.

Ibet couldn't help but look sideways at him, and very consciously followed his line of sight and spoke: "Those are the three non-staff members who joined five days ago, a wandering knight, an alchemist, and an A mage...but the power they control seems to be a little different from what is common to the public, and it seems to be some special inheritance."

Ibet, whose level of cultural knowledge has been increasing during this period, knows very well that many closed families in the Neisse era were like this. They had their own inheritance system and never taught others their knowledge and power.

It's just that since the fall of God, the harsh continental environment has forced everyone to communicate with each other, so many systems have begun to become popular. But it cannot be ruled out that until now there are still closed families that refuse to communicate. At the same time, there will be some lucky people who accidentally obtain the inheritance of the Neisser Era.

These three people are the latter.

The information he investigated showed that there was no problem with their origins. They were an adventurous mercenary group in the past. They accidentally obtained the inheritance from the Neisse era, but they offended another person who also discovered the inheritance. That person knew someone A member of the True God Religion with neither low nor high status caused them to be hunted down by the True God Religion. They fled in a hurry and came to Violet City. After learning about the Truth Seminar in the Dark World, they chose to join the Truth Seminar to gain asylum.

And the strength and potential they displayed was indeed impressive, and Ibet was very impressed.

Of course, the most important thing is——

"These three people have a very upright attitude. They have completed their tasks conscientiously since joining the Truth Seminar. They sincerely want to be a member of the Truth Seminar, rather than temporarily using us to hide from risks..." Ibet praised gushingly, and was very satisfied with the diligent work attitude displayed by those people.

Maybe this is the mutual appreciation between social animals?

"However," Ibet frowned slightly and spoke hesitantly, "They seem to be worried about being pursued by their enemies and can't wait to improve their status in the Truth Seminar, so they also want to join this inspection and become an official Advocate. Considering that their time to join was too short, I rejected them, but they never gave up and applied several times... The Pope happened to be here today. Why don't you decide?"

"Okay, just promise them."

I didn't think so, but I answered very simply.

"The time you joined is short, you have completed few tasks, and you have not accumulated enough contribution points... these are not problems. I believe that as long as you are determined enough, you can complete more tasks in a short time and accumulate enough contribution points. , so why not let them participate in the inspection and have the qualifications to become official practitioners? "

"——What do you think?"

Yuan Buwei looked past Ibet, looked behind him, and suddenly asked.

Ibet was horrified.

When he turned around and looked around, he found that the three protagonists who had just been discussing had walked over at some point and were looking at the Pope next to them with ardent eyes, completely ignoring him. living person.

That look was like a poor man's mouth watering when he saw a gold mine.

Ibet subconsciously turned his body sideways and quietly blocked the Pope behind him.

The three people didn't seem to notice his little movements at all. When they heard the words that Yuan Buwei asked, they nodded like chickens pecking at rice: "Okay, okay." "We can do it!" "We will definitely be able to become the official executors during this period of time!" "The Pope, just give us whatever tasks you have! We promise to complete them!"

Yuan Buwei seemed not surprised by their reaction, and even chuckled and praised: "We, the members of the Truth Seminar, should be so motivated."

He looked at Ibet and said calmly: "Okay, since the newcomers are so motivated, we can't dampen their enthusiasm. Who says that you can't become an official enforcer if you join for a short time? As long as you work hard, there is still hope. Come on. Come on, give them a copy of the task list for our truth seminar. Put the most troublesome ones with the greatest contribution on top. It’s best not to choose places too far away. Be sure to save their time. …”

...The subtext is that we must squeeze these tool people as hard as possible in the shortest possible time, and use their desire for promotion to squeeze them all!

…Anyway, it’s not up to him to decide when to achieve the goal and how many tasks to complete before being inspected! ^^

Yuan Buwei's attitude seems very approachable. There is no arrogance or condescension as a pope.

He even gave them a rare encouragement.

But the three of them felt a little uneasy in their hearts.

Ibet glanced at several people sympathetically.

He has fully understood the meaning of Yuan Buwei. But for some reason, I feel a little happy when I think of being able to distribute so many tasks.

Although it seems unlikely that this will lessen the burden on him. But when I saw that other people were about to be squeezed, I couldn't help but want to laugh.

...Oops, moral standards have declined.

Realizing that he was gloating about his misfortune, Ibet couldn't help but glance at Yuan Buwei, and silently sighed in his heart: QAQ I'm dirty.

He tried to save his shaky conscience: "This is too difficult for them..."

The three of them almost couldn't wait to answer:

"It's not difficult, we can do it!" "Don't worry, Chief, we will complete the task even if we don't eat or drink!" "That's right, just believe us!"

As they said this, they looked at Ibet with doubt in their eyes. Could it be that this chief executor deliberately blocked their promotion because they felt threatened by their great potential?

Ibet saw this doubt: "..."

...Forget it, we cultists have no conscience.

He silently took out a thick task list.

First, he looked at the three people who were about to face a tragic fate but were unaware of it and were inexplicably excited, and then looked at Yuan Buwei who was standing leisurely on the side. In the cheerful atmosphere, Ibet showed a sociable smile.

...Alas, in the end, one person took it all.

Chapter 279 Pope 17

To explain how the three outsiders appeared in the Truth Seminar, we have to start from the beginning.

Since accepting the half-month investigation mission, Lao Bai, Xiao Xi, and the painter rushed into the mission state at the first possible moment.

These three people are newcomers who have just left the ranch area. The so-called ranch area is equivalent to the novice village in the game.
