The prince of heaven only wants salted fish
Chapter 249: Abandoned by God (5)
Elmer cut off his beard on the spot in the shop, and teased him by saying, "The Lord's hobbies are not ordinary. A good-looking country boy like you has to take good care of himself - ah no, maybe that's still the case." What an honor it is for you." From then on, Jicheng's face remained very ugly.
To use Allen's words to describe it, he was "as dark as if someone owed him a hundred gold coins."
After returning from Chris City, Jicheng directly gathered the members of the dark forces for a meeting——
"So what are your plans?" Before anyone else could speak, Jicheng took the lead and asked.
Someone asked: "What, what are you planning?"
Jicheng: "Can you tolerate the Holy See bullying people like this?!"
Baruch and others: "?"
Although, is there something wrong with you saying this? ?
Jicheng looked back at them with his own confident eyes.
Baruch and others: "..."
Jicheng: "."
Baruch and others: “…………”
Jicheng: "."
Baruch and others: “………………”
Jicheng: "."
Finally, Baruch spoke unnaturally: "How can it be so easy to go against the Holy See of Light?"
"You were from the Holy See of Light before, so you should know the power of the Holy See of Light better than we do."
Jicheng sneered: "Since we know that the Holy See of Light is powerful, wouldn't it be better not to go against them from the beginning and not be a member of the dark forces?"
"And he was able to sneak into the Holy City and rescue me under the eyes of the Judgment Knights - and under the premise that the Pope and the others were not far away, he used ten magic teleportation arrays in one breath, just by Allen alone , do you think it’s possible?”
"There is also this place," Jicheng raised his hand and pointed down, "As the former Holy Son of Light, you can safely place me here after you save the people. I guess it is not a randomly chosen place. "
"To sum up, you have courage, top experts, and a well-managed territory. Now, what are you going to do with me here?"
After saying this, Jicheng turned to the blond girl standing behind Baruch and smiled: "Really? Miss Clara?"
When everyone present heard Jicheng accurately naming Clara, they couldn't help but turn their heads to look at her.
Clara, who was called out, couldn't help but touch her face - she would do this subconsciously every time she lost when playing cards with Ji Cheng, and then said helplessly: "...Okay, how did you do it? Do you recognize that I am the leader?"
Jicheng smiled with eight white teeth: "I saw your wanted poster before when I was in the Holy See."
——Klara, one of the members of the dark forces, is very powerful. It is conservatively estimated that she is at least an eighth-level magician, and may have saint-level strength at the highest. She is good at disguise and change. She is one of the most wanted criminals in the Holy See of Light.
She had been secretly following Allen when he sneaked into the Holy City. Otherwise, how could Allen have escaped smoothly with Jicheng all the way if he could only summon rabbits, squirrels and skunks?
When she appeared in front of Jicheng, Clara never showed her strength. Instead, she came here like a real girl next door to fish and play cards every day - but unfortunately, she ignored that Chen once served as the Holy See of Light. The status and information of the Holy Son, as well as the overly powerful mental power of His Highness the Crown Prince.
Clara: "...That's sloppy."
She took a step forward and moved away from Baruch's position, which was a complete admission.
Jicheng said: "Then you can answer my question now."
Clara spread her hands: “Okay.”
"What you just said is indeed true. We have top experts here, and the number of them is not small - at least most of the people in this town are from us. However, there is still an important problem."
Jicheng pretended to be listening attentively.
"Lack of money."
Jicheng: "..."
Clara said with a serious expression: "War is very expensive, recruiting soldiers, buying horses, food and grass, etc. Not to mention the deep-rooted faith of the Holy See of Light, there is a question of whether we can find so many soldiers."
"Although we have worked hard to rob many bishops of the Holy See of Light and nobles of the kingdom, we still have various expenses, which is not enough at all."
Jicheng: "..."
His tone was difficult: "——Why must we start a war?"
Clara's eyes widened: "If you don't destroy the economic base, you can only destroy the superstructure - there are many saint-level powerhouses in the Holy See of Light, not counting the magic weapons and forbidden curse scrolls they have. We people It's said to be a 'dark force', but everyone has different opinions. Sometimes it's too late to fight each other, and there are only a few strong ones, so they will definitely not be able to defeat them."
The corners of Jicheng's lips curled up: "That's not necessarily the case."
Clara: "?"
She looked up and down at Jicheng hesitantly: "You're not talking about you, are you?"
"Don't be ridiculous, I've been secretly observing the elemental curse on you for many days. That old man Haggard really has a skill. Even other saint-level powerhouses can't solve this thing. Even if you are skilled in martial arts, Stronger than Baruch, but, uh..."
Facing a small flame that suddenly ignited on Jicheng's hand, Clara suddenly got stuck.
"???"
She looked shocked: "Aren't all your magic skills...wait a minute, you're not a fire magician either???"
What's going on? ?
Ji Cheng: "I told you, I tried hard in bed at night."

The elemental curse prevented his body from absorbing various magic elements - but before the magic elements became magic elements, they were the purest spiritual power in the world!
Just like light has seven colors, before being decomposed, spiritual power has no attribute distinction.
It can only be said that the people in these small worlds still lack some knowledge.
"- But now, I still lack some handy weapons."
-
Clara and others couldn't explain how they were fooled out of the city by Ji Cheng.
At the beginning of the matter, Ji Cheng said that he still lacked weapons, so everyone was going to go to the weapon shop in Chris City to have a look - although Chris City is not big, because it is located at the junction of two kingdoms, the completeness of weapon types is no less than some big cities.
However, after just a simple look around, Ji Cheng bluntly said that there was no suitable one here.
He said that the weapons he needed did not need to be too big, but they needed to be sharp enough, and the number required was very large, at least a dozen, and hundreds or thousands were fine.
After hearing this, the members of the dark forces agreed: If you want so many, how much money will it cost!
And such a large order for weapons will inevitably attract the attention of others, such as the Holy See of Light. So if you want to find someone to build so many weapons according to Jicheng's requirements, those craftsmen outside are obviously not capable.
So after discussing it over and over again, I don't know who proposed: Why not go to the dwarves.
The dwarves are natural craftsmen, and their level of weapon making is extremely high, but because magicians are now respected on the August continent, warrior weapons are not often used, and the dwarves are a minority race on the continent, and their strength and number are not as good as humans, so they are somewhat discriminated against by humans.
This has led to the fact that the dwarves are very welcome to large orders (because there are rarely a few big businesses throughout the year), and at the same time, they don't have a good relationship with the Holy See of Light that rules over mankind.
Many members of the human dark forces who want to customize weapons almost all go to the dwarves. People like Baruk who also run a martial arts school have more dealings with the dwarves.
If Ji Cheng went to the dwarves to customize the flying sword, the chances of the Holy See of Light knowing the news would definitely be minimized.
So after some discussion, this matter was finalized in a muddle. Baruk and others packed their bags overnight and set off with Ji Cheng to the dwarf territory - Baruk was the leader, Clara decided to supervise Ji Cheng, some of the others were bored anyway and some just wanted to watch the fun, only Alan and a few others stayed to guard the house.
In fact, it stands to reason that Alan is at an active age, and his relationship with Ji Cheng is there, so he should go with him, but...
He was suffering from his strange summoning talent and could not make achievements in battle, but Ji Cheng gave him some groundbreaking suggestions: Can't you only summon squirrels, rabbits, mice, pheasants, etc.? Otherwise, open a monster meat farm!
Monster meat is a high-end product on the August continent. Anyway, the monsters summoned by Allen have little combat power but look delicious. Isn't it just right to breed them?
Allen was immediately inspired, as if he saw a road to wealth waving at him, so he decided to stay and start a business instead of going to join in the fun!
Maybe the first pot of gold for their dark forces uprising will be earned from here! !
Ahem, this is a bit off topic.
Let's talk about Jicheng. Although Baruch and Clara are willing to lead Jicheng to find the dwarves, the relationship between the two sides is still a bit ambiguous, and few members of the dark forces are rich, so they can't help Jicheng with the money for the custom weapon.
But before Chen was the Son of Light, what was the Vatican to pay for his food, clothing, housing and transportation?
Occasionally, he had some extra money, and Chen mostly used it to help the civilians.
So let alone Chen didn't save up any private money, even if he did, the God-forsaken mark appeared on his forehead for no reason, and after he was imprisoned by the Church, this thing must have been plundered.
When Ji Cheng was brought to this small town by Allen, he was so poor that he had no other property except a pair of special shackles from the Church of Light.
So before he officially set off, he spent a little effort to collect the money for custom weapons.
In fact, this method is also very simple. Specifically, Ji Cheng referred to Clara's way of collecting money - he robbed Elmer.
As the saying goes, take from the people and use it for the people. It just so happens that Elmer collected a lot of "taxes" before, and now it comes in handy.
