Volume 13: The Lights in the Sky Are All Enemies Chapter 23: The First Move Wins
If you want to win, you must first consider the issue of intelligence. Conquering Hell is not a simple and quick action. It takes years, decades, or even hundreds of years to see results. Every war is a long...security war.
Yes, that's right, a war of public order. The demons rarely use the front battlefield for strategic decisive battles. Their mental thinking is chaotic and illogical. They often collapse in the starry sky battlefield, and then stubbornly drag the war into brutal and violent street fighting on the ground of each planet. They will fight a tug-of-war in a city, a mountain, a lake, and an ocean. They use their expertise in flesh hatching and cult to arrange the entire planet into three layers inside and outside into a deliberately divided battlefield, and put normal people who must not be ignored by the Holy Light as bait to fight.
Demons are good at controlling people's hearts, or people don't believe that they and others can accomplish miracles one after another through hard work and belief. This is undoubtedly a scam for people who have been numb for a long time. They won't believe it even if the facts are in front of them. So ignorant and foolish people will subconsciously gather around demons. They believe in their own logic and judgment, that is, they believe that there is no real justice and faith, only interests and chaos. But their conscience and instinct are not enough to support them to be promoted to demons or other incarnations of evil, so they are ordinary people, moving with the general trend, but the objects that demons and holy light focus on. The only difference is that holy light will make people work and create by hand, while demons will deceive.
So this creates a very interesting situation. The cultural works of demons usually tend to be about the corruption within the Holy Light, the mistakes of internal personnel, the collapse of spiritual power, etc., but there has never been any literary work criticizing the nature of the Holy Light's worship of goodness, believing that intelligent life is born to kill each other. Although they think so in their hearts, no demon has ever written it down. Demons are not stupid, they know where their greatest reliance lies.
As the saying goes, a gentleman can deceive others with his own tactics. If there is no way to win on the front battlefield, then create a battlefield that they absolutely cannot refuse. In fact, although this behavior is despicable and shameless, it is extremely outstanding. Throughout the ages, countless Holy Light warriors have been troubled by security battles, and a large number of troops have been delayed in the rear and cannot be transported.
"…So the main task of the Undead Office is to assist the operators of the King of Law Office in some auxiliary activities in public security warfare. When you grow up, you will also be allowed to engage in street fighting and siege warfare, but not now."
Now most of the players are still not strong enough.
Standing in the crystal clear corridor, the Holy Light Professor, with his shiny forehead, spoke calmly to Li Lin, who was a little absent-minded, behind him.
However, Li Lin did not listen carefully to what the professor said. He was just stunned by his rapidly growing knowledge of Holy Light. It was as if he could be enlightened by endless knowledge just by standing here. He was just walking on the street and talking to people, but his knowledge increased at an alarming speed.
Although it is limited to the Holy Light Department, it is still amazing enough. Walking around the long crystal corridor, looking at the spreading stars around, Li Lin felt that his favor for the Holy Light Department was really rising. Giving away equipment and girls, and often giving rewards, is there a better organization in the world than this? Although the university is very good, sometimes it is always secretive, and it also cheats on your own equipment. Generally speaking, the two are similar?
But just now, Holy Light helped Li Lin do a good thing. After knowing that Li Lin's magic power and stage were not that of a demigod, it directly connected Li Lin to the source of Holy Light to perform conceptual operations to erase all files related to Li Lin. Although in the eyes of the great gods, doing so is completely an attempt to cover up and useless, but after all, Li Lin is the nominal head of the Undead Hall. How can the information of a high-end leader be investigated at will? So it directly mobilized the authority of Holy Light to start erasing the entire universe. On the way, he also met a vampire demigod, who successfully pretended to be powerful with the help of the Holy Light Big Battery and Sally Angel.
Look how good this is. In other novels, the protagonist pretends to be awesome and others yell "six six six". Here, the organization helps you pretend to be awesome and yells "six six six". This is so simple and pure that even a thick-skinned person like Li Lin feels a little embarrassed. You use other people's strength and experience to beat them up, and then you say you are awesome after beating them up. You are really a good person.
Let's have more good people like this.
Looking at his rapidly growing experience bar and related knowledge, Li Lin felt very satisfied.
"Um?"
The professor was walking on the road and suddenly frowned, as if he was listening to something. Then he turned to look at Li Lin with a strange expression.
"When you were erasing the intelligence just now, did you encounter a vampire who looked stupid, just like those mentally retarded vampires described in novels? His strength was pretty good, at the demigod level? And he was surrounded by a group of undead creatures and a big demon?"
"Ah? You mean the vampire?"
The one with the problem in his brain.
Li Lin quickly remembered the vampire who seemed to have mysophobia.
After all, he was a demigod, and he screamed like a little girl being raped, so it was probably just that. So Li Lin nodded.
"I did meet such a person, and he looked down on me. I planted a mark on him, and since he couldn't remove it anyway, he was a Holy Light, so I just wanted to disgust him and came back. What happened? Was he stimulated to suddenly become a god and show his power?"
"No, on the contrary, he is dead."
"……?"
"Or to put it another way, at least in this Pale Crusade, he is as good as dead."
Looking at Li Lin's confused expression, the professor touched his chin in some surprise.
"The exact information we got from the Prophecy Hall and the Starlight Hall is that the newly promoted vampire does not exist in the observed future. Originally, he was a newly promoted demigod and had some mental problems, but the Prophecy Hall believed that the Undead Brigade could cause considerable trouble in the hands of him and a demon. And just now, the Prophecy Hall reported that the vampire no longer exists in the observed future, and the presence of demons has also been weakened by 70%, with most of them not participating. This is another great achievement. Congratulations on your victory."
"...???????"
This feat can fly here by itself? Is Holy Light so good?
Facing a professor who was doubting his life, Li Lin was also wondering if his gaming career was going too smoothly.
Although I was very successful in the past, and my luck was not very good, but my skills were still there, but this is the first time I won inexplicably? Is this considered good luck?
"No, wait a minute."
The player who was thinking suddenly realized a problem and asked curiously:
"The Hall of Prophecy is so capable, how did you get backstabbed? Can't you use foresight to prevent others from betraying you? You can even predict the composition of other organizations' executives, so it should be pretty easy to predict how many traitors will be shot on the spot, right?"
"It's not you, it's us, Director."
After correcting the still ignorant director's remarks, the Holy Light Professor said seriously:
"Because a lot of things in the Hall of Prophecy were told to us by demons. Demons have a fairly high accuracy rate in their predictions about other demons. They are very keen to cause trouble for their potential opponents, even if it means destroying themselves. On the other hand, the Free Alliance often has gods interfering, so we can't make accurate predictions. On the other hand, the demons would rather give up interfering with their own destiny and future, and let others see the future of their enemies."
"... Would they rather give up their lives than betray the organization? Oh, now I remember, they are indeed capable of doing such things."
Demons are all such tough guys.
Recalling every detail of his encounter with the demons, Li Lin felt that it was not unfair at all that these demons were hung up and hammered to death by the holy light.
Everyone is a traitor, with their own little plans, hurting themselves before hurting the enemy, and everyone is a boxing expert, so it would be a big problem if they could win. If it weren't for the cunning and calculating business bastards of the Free Alliance who were dragging their feet, they would have been destroyed long ago.
"They are malicious creatures, so how smart can they be? Even the most sinister villains will choose to go where it is beneficial to them, and what is beneficial is good for them. That's why demons never become powerful. They are just objects that must be purified and eliminated. In other words, it's just the first step. If we don't crush these troublemakers first, how can we build a better world?"
The professor shook his head, lowered his head and thought for a moment, as if calculating something, then nodded.
"No matter what, the first move wins, which is always good. Well, I can now tell you about your configuration. If the completeness of the Holy Light is not enough to convince the public, the testimony of the Hall of Prophecy and the aura of several demigods and broken gods should be able to convince the public... Come with me. I will show you the honor you deserve."
"What? Is there anything else besides equipment and reputation??"
"Of course. Do you think that the head of the Holy Light Sequence is an ordinary position and that you can be dismissed with just some equipment and some nice words?"
We are not the devil who runs a pyramid scheme.
The professor looked at the excited Li Lin strangely, shook his head, and took Li Lin to the depths of the crystal corridor.
