Chapter 1042 I’m going to have a good chat with these ‘believers’ (please vote for this huge chapter)

"Brother Hao Yi, why are you here?"

Lin Chichi turned his head and looked at the young man behind him who was holding the buffet tray. He looked left and right, as if to make sure he had seen the right person.

"Newland City-State has received some 'cases', I'll come over and take a look,"

He Ao used a fork to put a small piece of smoked sausage on the dinner plate into his mouth. Then he glanced at Lin Chichi's sleeves and said with a smile, "The signal is cut off?"

"Um,"

Lin Chichi was stunned for a moment, her face turned slightly red, she lowered her head and fiddled with her fingers, and said quickly,

"I also prepared a backup plan. I placed a communicator outside. Although the signal is disconnected now, I set up a signal detection every ten minutes. As long as the communicator does not receive the signal the next time it is detected. , the intelligence summary will be sent up automatically.”

Then she raised her head and took a careful peek at the young man in front of her.

"Have something to eat."

He Ao took one look at her careful look, pointed at the sausage on the table with his fork, and said with a smile.

"Okay, thank you, brother Hao Yi,"

Lin Chichi chuckled. She turned around, raised her hand, took a small plate from the table, and followed He Ao's example, putting some smoked sausage on the plate.

Then she took a fork, inserted the smoked sausage into her mouth, then bit into the smoked sausage, chewed it carefully, looked at He Ao, her eyes widened slightly, "It's delicious!"

"really."

He Ao also put a piece of smoked sausage into his mouth.

"It tastes like honey, so fragrant,"

Lin Chi Chi picked up a piece of smoked sausage again and chewed it while looking at the crowd gathered in twos and threes in the distance. "Brother Hao Yi, it seems that the people here are not just ordinary people who have received flyers."

She pointed slightly at the people holding champagne glasses on the podium near the innermost stage of the hall with the fork with the smoked sausage stuck in them, and said slowly,

"The one on the left is the owner of the Mote City TV station. The person chatting with him is the captain of the gendarmerie in the nearby area. A little further over, he is the owner of the municipal company."

"How do you know these people?"

He Ao raised his eyes and glanced at the direction pointed by Lin Chichi.

Deep in the entire hall, near the podium, there seemed to be people with a certain 'status' gathered, and the texture of the clothes they wore was completely different from those on the periphery.

"In newspapers and news,"

Lin Chichi explained, "I have read a lot of news reports in the past two days, and I have a rough understanding of these 'reputable' people in Mote City."

As she spoke, she glanced at the young man beside her.

Of course, these "respectable" people are not even bigger ants in front of brother Hao Yi.

Then she withdrew her gaze and said thoughtfully, "But judging from the financial resources shown by this church and the 'celebrities' it can attract, it seems that they should not be so 'obscure', but I don't seem to be here. I’ve seen them in the information about World Tree.”

As a member in charge of 'propaganda', Lin Chichi has very high access to information within the institute. Except for some confidential extraordinary items, she can access most personnel information.

After He Ao took charge of the Ika Republic, she also opened the intelligence authority of the Ika World Tree to her.

"The Republic of Ika was previously controlled by local forces in Ika,"

He Ao shook his head slightly and said slowly, "A lot of things are colluded by them in private, and none of them have entered World Tree's intelligence system. In such a short period of time, it is impossible for people from the institute to quickly integrate all the information. It’s normal not to have their information.”

"oh,"

Lin Chichi realized something, glanced at the people deep in the hall, and thought slightly,

"So the 'celebrities' they invited were only people from the middle and upper classes of Mote City. They did not invite anyone higher up, those who had entered the core circle, or extraordinary people, because inviting those people would easily alarm Sister Yan Yue. Enter the vision of Xian...He."

She put the smoked sausage on the fork into her mouth, "These people are so cautious. It seems that what they do is not worthy of publicity."

At this time, she suddenly remembered something, turned her head, looked at He Ao, and asked in a low voice, "So, brother Hao Yi, you are here just for them? What did you just say about Newland City State? Is it related to them?" "

"Not sure,"

He Ao shook his head, and his eyes fell on the podium at the end of the hall, "Newland City State has recently reported several cases of people who went missing on business trips to the West, with a relatively high frequency, and they all passed through the Republic of Ika to a greater or lesser extent. , I happen to be free, so I stopped by to take a look.”

After the Newland City State experienced the underground palace incident, it was handed over to 'Hao Yi' by the three major organizations.

He Ao transformed the entire city-state. In order to avoid any extraordinary incidents, he asked the Newland City-State authorities to increase their monitoring of disappearances and report directly to him if there was any movement.

Therefore, some ‘cases’ that would have been ignored before were now placed in front of him.

"They may be deliberately 'looking for' those outsiders who come to visit the West,"

The leaflets in the three languages ​​echoed in Lin Chichi's mind, "Tiya and Zhongtu are the two most widely used languages ​​outside of the West."

She followed He Ao's gaze and looked at the podium, "Tourists from other places have no relatives here. If something goes wrong, there is no way to call for rescue immediately, and it is not easy to arouse the suspicion of local forces."

At this time, some staff members had already walked to the edge of the podium, and it seemed that the 'lecture' was about to begin.

The surrounding crowds of people in twos and threes were also gathering in front of the podium.

"Brother Hao Yi, it seems like it's about to start?"

Lin Chichi turned his head and looked at He Ao beside him.

"Let's go over there."

He Ao put the dinner plate on the table and said slowly.

"Um."

Lin Chichi also put the dinner plate on the table and followed He Ao into the crowd.

The bustling crowd gathered under the podium, and a thin man wearing a white robe, who looked gentle and calm, also walked up to the podium from behind.

"Fellow parishioners,"

He glanced at the crowd below, raised his hand, and said with a gentle smile, "Thank you very much for coming here today and participating in such a warm family gathering. The glory of Destroyer K shines on us."

"Praise to the Church, praise to K the Destroyer."

Someone in the audience immediately raised their wine glasses and said loudly.

At the same time, there were echoes from the crowd.

"I have personally felt the reverence of all the church members for the great destroyer K,"

The man in white robe raised his hand again. His voice seemed to have infinite magic power, making everyone quiet. He looked at the crowd under the stage and continued,

"I believe everyone knows that the world will eventually be destroyed. Only those who devoutly follow the great destroyer K can survive this destruction that affects everything..."

Next, he began to speak slowly.

The content of the first half of the story is similar to what He Ao roughly learned from distributing flyers.

Probably the world is about to be destroyed. Only those who believe in 'Destroyer K' can survive the destruction and gain a new life of eternity and immortality in the new world created by 'Destroyer K'.

A very classic eschatological theory that relies on fear and imaginary hope to unite believers.

The second half of what the man in the white robe told was something that the person who handed out the flyers didn't mention at all.

The core of this part can be summed up in two words: ‘contribution’.

The more people contribute to the church and the more 'devout' they are, the more they can be blessed by 'K the Destroyer' and the higher their status in the new world will be.

Judging from the description, it seems that all the believers in this "church" are not completely "members of the family", but are divided into three, six or nine levels.

The more pious and the higher the contribution of the 'members', the higher their status in the church will be, and the higher their status will be in the 'new world' after the end of the world.

At the end of the story, the man in white robe even emphasized that those who have contributed the most in this 'church' have even gained the favor of 'Destroyer K', and in this old world that is about to be destroyed, they have also gained A strength far beyond that of ordinary people.

Soon, this 'lecture' came to an end.

The man in the white robe had some talent for speaking. His obviously polished speaking skills were accompanied by slightly inflammatory words, which obviously moved many people standing below.

However, there were some people who didn't react at all, such as the young men standing in front of Hoao on the left, who looked like they were here for the first time.

The young men were holding plates in their hands and kept looking at the man on the podium. Although they did not make trouble, it was obvious that they were not convinced by the man in white robes and even sneered at him.

And after the story ended, the man in white robe didn't seem to care about these 'unbelievers'.

He looked at the crowd gathered here, raised his hand again, and said slowly, "The next step is the most important part of this 'gathering'. Please join me, fellow believers, in closing your eyes and calming your mind. Listen to the voice of the great 'K the Destroyer'."

The crowd around them all lowered their heads, including the unbelieving young people. After seeing everyone around them lower their heads, they also lowered their heads, but did not close their eyes.

He Ao also lowered his head along with Lin Chichi.

At the same time, he also 'spread' his spiritual consciousness and 'looked' around.

The man in white robe still maintained a pious look, and then, some kind of invisible 'ripples' spread out from the depths of the entire hall.

At the moment when the ripples spread out, He Ao felt a little flutter in his heart.

Immediately afterwards, a vague memory naturally emerged from his mind.

That was the memory of his previous fusion of various powers, 'penetrating' the ruins of the past, and solving the Blood Sun Incident.

Soon, the ripples passed through everyone, and the vague memory disappeared naturally.

At this time, Lin Chichi, who was beside He Ao, raised his head, looked at He Ao, and whispered, "Brother Hao Yi, it's that memory."

"Um."

He Ao nodded slightly, his eyes scanning everyone.

Most of the people standing here have uncontrollable shock in their eyes, and even the few young people who originally 'didn't believe' are looking at each other at this moment, a little at a loss.

Obviously, they saw something 'shocking'.

In fact, He Ao could probably guess what they 'saw' - in the Blood Sun incident, the light shot by 'K' penetrated the 'Blood Sun'.

Although their memories have been covered up by the World Tree and the Institute, they have not been completely erased.

The man in white robe standing on the podium used some means to briefly 'recall' this memory for the people in the audience.

At the same time, I also recalled the ‘shock’ brought by this memory.

"I believe that all the church members have seen that this is the imprint left by the great 'K the Destroyer' on everyone's souls. It is the most magnificent miracle in the world,"

The man in white robe lowered his hand, put it on his chest, and raised his voice, "Praise the great destroyer K!"

"Praise to the great destroyer K!"

The crowd below also learned to put their hands on their chests and responded loudly.

He Ao stood in the crowd, looking at all this with a strange expression.

After a burst of 'praise', the man in white robe on the podium put down his hand. He looked at everyone and said quickly,

"After we have concluded our 'discussion' on doctrine, next is the final 'luck draw session' of this gathering. Church members who come often may have been looking forward to this session."

There was a slight smile in the crowd.

"The staff will issue numbers to each member of the church."

The man in the white robe continued, "This time we have prepared five first prizes, ten second prizes, and fifteen third prizes. The first prize is a voucher for a luxury three-day trip to Turlock Republic, and the second prize is Two five-star hotel buffet redemption coupons, and the third prize is a set of customized tableware..."

"I thought he wanted us to donate money to the church as a 'contribution'."

At the end of the crowd, Lin Chichi stood next to He Ao and whispered.

"He doesn't want your money, he only wants your other things."

He Ao shook his head gently.

Soon, a staff member walked up to He and Ao carrying a box containing a number plate.

"Thanks."

Lin Chichi took out two number plates from the box, handed one to He Ao, and kept one for himself.

The staff glanced at the number plates in their hands, nodded, and walked towards the others.

"34, it seems that the probability of winning is quite high,"

Lin Chichi glanced at her number plate, then she stood on tiptoes and glanced at the lottery box that had been moved out on the podium. Then she put down her number plate and looked at He Ao, "But my luck in the lottery is really bad. I haven’t hit a bottle a few times since I was a kid.”

At this time, the number plates have also been distributed.

The man in white robe stood in front of the lottery box, looked at the crowd below, put his hand into the lottery box, and said with a smile, "In front of the church members, I won't say so many lies, let's just start the lottery."

There was a roar of laughter from the crowd.

"First of all, it's the third prize...15, 17..."

The man in the white robe drew out the numbers one by one.

"Then the second prize...49, 33..."

Twenty-five numbers were drawn in a row.

"Okay, next is the much-anticipated first prize, a luxury three-day trip. Let me see which church members are so lucky,"

The man in the white robe reached into the lottery box and took out a number, "11!"

"it's me!"

There was an exclamation from the crowd.

"9!" "22!" "51!" "34!"

The man in white robe took out the remaining numbers one by one.

When he read '34', the whole scene fell silent.

Then Lin belatedly glanced at his number plate and said with some confusion, "34, is it me?!"

"Looks like our lucky guy can't quite believe his ears."

The man in white robe on the podium smiled.

At this time, the beautiful woman who was originally guarding the door suddenly ran over, leaned into the ear of the man in white robe, and said something quickly.

At this moment, the man in white robe's expression changed, and then he restored his smile in a very short time. He raised his hand, looked at everyone, and said quickly,

"Everyone, due to some situations in the hotel, our party ends here today. Prize redemption cards will be sent to everyone. You can just use the church software to scan the code to bind. The staff will take everyone out quickly. ”

With that said, he turned around and walked backstage.

A staff member quickly walked over and handed Lin Chichi a book-sized card with a 'luxury three-day tour' printed on it, and then guided them out of the hall.

Lin Chichi slightly distanced himself from the staff, then glanced at the crowd of people who had received the prize cards, approached He Ao, and whispered, "It seems that only one of the first prize winners is a local, and there are three others." This one looks like he’s from the Tia Empire.”

"Um."

He Ao nodded slightly. He had just glanced at the distribution of awards.

Four-fifths of the first prizes are foreigners, the second prizes are locals, and the third prizes include both foreigners and locals.

As for the 'upper-class people' in the core area, only one or two won a third prize.

Lin Chichi obviously realized something was wrong, and then she glanced at the people around her who were being taken away quickly, and whispered, "But why did they end so suddenly."

"somebody is coming."

He Ao glanced at the man in white robe who had entered the side door of the podium, and replied calmly.

"A transcendent? Someone from the Institute and World Tree?"

Lin Chichi was stunned for a moment, then realized something, "Is it the message sent by my communicator?"

"not completely,"

He Ao glanced at the wall beside him, as if looking through the wall, he saw the World Tree headquarters building in the city center in the distance.

As early as the man in white robe was giving his speech, he was arranging for people to come over.

Then he turned back and looked at the closed side door in the hall, "But they are quite well informed."

Not long after he arranged the operation, the people here got the news.

"Brother Hao Yi, what do we need to do?"

Lin Chichi noticed something and looked over, whispering.

"Need not,"

He Ao glanced at the prize card in her hand and put a mark on her, "You go out first."

He turned back and slowly disappeared into the crowd, "I'm going to have a good chat with these followers of 'Destroyer K'."

Five thousand words, please give me a vote at the end of the month.
