Pastor's Tantra
Chapter 166 Tommy is full of questions
There are only three days left.
I found a kidnapped person on the Glass Island, and the only clue I could get was a name——
Tommy couldn't even imagine how difficult this matter would be.
Not to mention, he had to kill the demon possessed by the shadow demon in order to get Aiwass back.
But to be honest, that kind of thing is easier for Tommy. After all, with a clear goal, there is a way to accomplish it. What Tommy fears most is the situation where he doesn't know how to start.
Tommy's mood was extremely complicated at this moment...regret mixed with fear, anger mixed with uncontrollable rage.
In fact, he always knew that there would be no good in attacking Aiwass. If Aiwass chooses his side, Tommy will definitely protect him to the death and even regard him as his direct descendant. But the problem is, Aiwass sided with Boca.
Boca didn't even hide its purpose.
As long as he has a chance to surpass himself, he will definitely take action. When that time comes, he will have to die - from this perspective, he gave the order for his own survival.
The only problem was that he was overwhelmed by jealousy and anxiety... He could have chosen a more subtle method, but he was too hasty.
Vice President Boka who was chasing after him made him dizzy, so he planned to weaken Boka's power - if killing Aiwass would bring any consequences, then Boka would take the blame, and he could do it too Cut off the entire Lloyd's Association and resign as a matter of course.
Even if they are not killed, it can create a rift between Aiwass and Boca, thereby reducing Boka's power in disguise. There is even a chance to bring Aiwass to his side.
After all, it was Boca who proposed the attack on Aiwass.
And what he did was just emphasize the attitude of the Noble Red side and demand that Boca must increase their stakes and not let go. From my own standpoint, there is no problem.
To be honest, Tommy has repeatedly reviewed the plan until now, and still doesn't think there is anything wrong with his plan.
He's just not wrong.
It's all due to bad luck.
——How could he possibly guess that the Great Arbiter Meg would take action over such a trivial matter?
Aiwass is just the second son of the Moriarty family, even an adopted son like himself. Just an adopted son, so what if he has some ability?
Besides, he has a brother above him and a sister below, so there is no heir in the family at all. Old Moriarty didn't react even when he was dead, so how could something happen to Aiwass even alert Meg? He's obviously not very strong, and he doesn't have any talents that need to be taken seriously...
Now I am only at the first level at the age of eighteen, and I have no academic monographs. His grades are said to be pretty good, with no research or inventions.
What on earth can't he do?
Tommy still couldn't figure out why Aiwass could alarm Meg. Let Meg push herself for him.
——This is completely impossible to predict!
She has never interfered in political affairs before. Because her help to either party may cause speculation in the Round Table Hall and lead to chaos in Avalon. Just like if a fish moves slightly, the water on the shore will be muddy.
Meg hasn't moved a hand for at least five years... or even close to ten years. Even though the royal family was cursed and died one after another, she never took action. Under such circumstances, it is completely reasonable to think that Meg no longer wants to take action.
But it's too late to regret it now. I have been cursed.
That is the "final arbitration" personally ordered by the "Great Arbiter" to himself, and it is the highest version of the "Word Spirit" used by all legalists on the authoritarian path. Even if you are proficient in the transcendent path of curse, you will not be able to come into contact with this curse - this is a delayed burst of word spirit damage, which is not a curse, but closer to a contract.
As the president of Lloyd's of London, he is also the president of the Avalon Merchants' Federation.
The total number of people in the Round Table Hall is about one hundred and twenty, but there are only seventy or eighty people who often attend meetings. Only when the motion involves their vital interests, or when the matter is relatively important, the number of people who attend the meeting will increase. There will be more.
And Tommy indirectly sponsored more than fifty of them, all of whom often attended the Round Table Hall meetings... In other words, he basically controlled two-thirds of the seats in the normal Round Table Hall through bribery and other means. And because of the existence of the Inspectorate, these people do not dare to connect with each other, so they do not know that others are also controlled by them, which means that it is difficult for them to unite and betray themselves together.
It might be difficult to force these knights to pass laws that would go against them. But if the bill is ambiguous, his words still apply.
When Meg is loyal to the Queen, the royal family basically obeys the opinions of the Round Table Hall, and the Round Table Hall basically obeys his own opinions, Tommy can indeed be regarded as an underground emperor - even though he spends a lot of money every time he issues an order, in the end It can allow a country's agenda to be reversed at will according to one's own wishes.
Even if the knights don't know which Knights of the Round Table are controlled by Tommy with money, they can still realize that the laws passed in recent years are basically beneficial to businessmen. Therefore, even the Inspectorate did not dare to attack Lloyd's at will.
——Even if they knew that Lloyd's was involved in dangerous goods smuggling, so what?
Many of the inspectors have accepted his sponsorship, and when they come to investigate, someone will always call him in advance. Sometimes the inspectors are so enthusiastic that callers keep the phone busy for half an hour.
What Meg said about others not being able to touch her was true. She dared to touch him, and this was true. That's why Tommy respects her so much... because such a powerful person can no longer influence her through the Round Table Hall. If Tommy ordered the knights to target Meg, they would immediately rebel.
But what makes Tommy wonder is, what on earth did the old woman get crazy about today?
Could it be that she is almost dying of old age and is now dealing with posthumous matters?
"I hope she dies soon."
Tommy cursed viciously and cursed several times.
He thought for a long time and started making phone calls in his office.
His first call was to the Boca Vice President.
The phone rang only once and was picked up instantly. It was obvious that Boca had been staying by the phone.
"Mr. Boca," Tommy said solemnly, "something unexpected happened last night. Can you explain it to me?"
Of course he knew that Boca did not do this. Because Boca had no motive for "Aleister" to kidnap Aiwass.
But this did not prevent him from pushing Boca out as a target first - if he wanted to mobilize the entire Round Table Hall to help him investigate Aleister, he had to find someone who could take the blame in advance.
You can't investigate until the end and get yourself involved.
Boka, who was on the other side of the phone, also had a serious look on his face.
The spiritual intuition from the extraordinary allowed him to clearly detect the malice and threat from Tommy's words.
"What, Mr. Lloyd?"
But Boca didn't back down: "Come and show off your victory to me, aren't you?"
Tommy Lloyd was surprised to hear the hostility in Boca's voice.
Normally, Boca would just retreat. He is such a person... he looks serious and calm, but in fact he is a very timid person. Even with inside information, his investment strategies are very cautious. Before the Noble Red Society began to interfere with Lloyd's, Boca was a well-known coexistence faction.
At that time, Lloyd was already trying to usurp the throne. Rather, they have been planning for this since Prince Lloyd.
But now that it was only half a step away from completion, Vice President Boca took half a step back.
He believes that a group of businessmen cannot manage the country well. Now everyone can be united because there is the Round Table Hall and the royal family above. But if they really want to succeed in usurping the throne, they will fight each other for their own interests. From this point of view, it is the best situation to keep the entire country functioning normally and they only enjoy privileges without having to work for it.
Therefore, Boca does not support seizing power. He still hopes that the Du Lac family will inform Avalon to maintain the greatest possible stability. Many knights in the Round Table Hall also think so - they are tired of Avalon's current rules, but they don't want to change too much.
Want freedom, but only a little.
But to Lloyd, this was a traitor.
It is impossible for the public to accept the usurpation of royal power by merchants. Not to mention that he is a hybrid giant with part cannibal blood flowing in his body. He needs strong enough pressure to make them have no choice and then accept this no choice - the source of pressure Tommy Lloyd chose is the Kingdom of Star Antimony.
But Boca's claim is to suck blood from him.
Those who thought Lloyd was too extreme looked back and saw that there was a more conservative faction in Boca, and they were more likely to accept Boca's ideas. The stronger Lloyd pressed, the easier it was to drive them towards Boca.
This is why he always wants to be the enemy of Boca and drive the opponent to death.
The furious blood in his body was still boiling. Tommy has had murderous intentions towards Vice President Boca several times.
That is to say, he is not sure that he can kill the opponent directly on the spot.
If Boka is accidentally let go, the situation will become complicated and anxious... Because of this, Boka can survive. Otherwise, he would have eliminated his nemesis through physical means.
But even though he had revealed his murderous intention, Boka was still willing to obey his orders - Tommy ordered Boka to send stronger people to attack Aiwass, such as his blade demon and whip demon.
In the end, he actually sent it out.
——That’s the Blade Demon!
Although it is only the third energy level in terms of path power, it can defeat the fourth energy level head-on. With the support of the whipping demon and the restraint of the devil dog, even multiple fourth-level enemies can win.
Moreover, what the Blade Demon is most proud of is its powerful pursuit ability - it is useless to escape in front of the Blade Demon, and the obsession to chase the opponent to death even if they both die together is extremely threatening in a one-on-one battle. .
When Boca sent out the Blade Demon, Tommy felt that he was really giving up on Aiwass. Because he had reached this level and still didn't dare to fall out with himself... Tommy only felt that he was so frighteningly weak and made people laugh at him.
But now, Boca has become tougher.
——Why did you suddenly become tough at this time?
Tommy was full of questions.
There are simply too many unreasonable things about this matter.
Why did Meg suddenly take action? Why did Boca suddenly become tough? Where did the demon possessed by the shadow demon come from?
Chapter 2 will be a little later, it should be about the same as yesterday!
Damn it, I got up at nine o'clock again today! My routine has started to loosen up again, which is a bad sign! (panic)
