Volume 2: Scales in the Pond Chapter 347: Confiscating Power
"I will grant enough seeds of original sin to the factions that surrender their power, and as the chief priest, I will additionally grant you seeds of jealousy at the earth level to increase your strength."
Earth-level Seed of Jealousy? !
After hearing the news of the new president's personal recognition, the chief priests present were all tempted. After all, the power of most special items was not as strong as an Earth-level Seed of Jealousy . If they could be exchanged, they would definitely be willing.
"But I don't have many Earth-level seeds of jealousy in my hand right now. The last time I went to the underworld, I only captured nine Earth-level undead. I need to find an opportunity to go to the underworld to harvest more Earth-level undead."
Only nine earth-level undead were captured?
Listen, is this human language? How did you do it?
"But there are so many seeds of jealousy at the Xuan level and human level that it is overflowing. Recently, just counting these seeds of jealousy has been a huge project. Rewarding Envoy, how is the counting going?"
Wu Xinfeng immediately replied, "8,000 Xuan-level Seeds of Jealousy is a huge number. I'm afraid it will take a few days to complete the counting."
"8,000 pieces...Xuan level..."
Robert, the high priest of the blood clan, murmured to himself that he now understood what Alan and the two messengers said was true. There really were so many seeds of jealousy.
I didn’t expect that the underworld is actually a treasure land?
There are so many seeds of jealousy, which is enough to completely reshape the system of the Antiquities Association. It seems that this is what the new president is planning.
So, should we hand over the power in our hands?
Robert is the type who is somewhat tempted but reluctant to let go.
Because he was very greedy, he wanted the power of the ancestor's true blood and the power of the earth-level seed of jealousy.
"I know about the blood clan, Robert. As the chief priest of the blood clan and the leader of the faction, how do you plan to deal with those traitors?"
You have already called him a traitor and given him a definition. How else can deal with him?
"Of course we have to kill them all, but Mr. President, those traitors are very powerful, and I suspect they have received funding from other forces. It may not be easy to deal with them, and it is likely to involve many forces hidden behind them."
Robert was also powerless.
If the president was still there, those people would definitely not dare to rebel.
But the president died, and the highest position in the Antiquity Association remained vacant for a while, which caused many people below to become disloyal.
After all, who doesn't want to be upgraded to the ground level and sit in the position of president?
If the Black Emperor had not appeared out of nowhere and killed ordinary Earth-level people like mowing grass, showing a strength that was enough to shock everyone, many high priests would not appear here today.
"How many Xuan-level psychics can your Blood Clan faction mobilize now?"
"If we only consider the combatants, there are about 450 people."
Robert hid some of his strength, but not much, because these people were all unemployed money-eating beasts, and their industries were only enough to support so many people. After all, they were not a country, but just a branch of the Antique Appraisal Society.
Qiao Ji turned to Wu Xinfeng and said, "As soon as possible, allocate 500 seeds of jealousy with dual abilities to them. Choose those with good combat effectiveness."
"yes."
Then Qiao Ji said to Robert: "Deal with those traitors as soon as possible. As for the forces behind them, the Messenger of Rewarding Good and Punishing Evil will help you."
One is suppressing at the government level through the transaction of Seeds of Original Sin, and the other is providing military reinforcements.
However, Jin Laobiao is not very suitable for this job, so let him do it slowly.
"yes."
Robert had no choice but to agree.
After dealing with the matter of the blood clan, Qiao Ji summarized the meeting, "I called everyone here today and said everything that needs to be said. First, the power is handed over. I hope everyone will cooperate with the two envoys' review."
"Second, we need to collect all the information related to the undead. The kingdom of the undead that the Death Priest connected to last time has been destroyed by me, and we can no longer connect to it. We are in urgent need of a new channel. The undead are known for their numbers, and any kingdom of the undead can easily capture a large number of undead, which means millions of seeds of original sin."
Everyone was shocked. A million?
Even for the lowest level of seeds of original sin, this number is too terrifying.
"Third, keep a low profile. I have decided to sell the seeds of original sin that cannot be digested to various countries in exchange for weapons and equipment. Don't cause trouble ."
Qiao Ji looked at Wu Xinfeng, and secretly told him something with his mental power, then said, "Dismiss!"
He simply disappeared, leaving the officiating group in a noisy state, like a classroom after the head teacher left.
"Did you hear that? That's an Earth-level Seed of Jealousy. It's said that it can allow people to directly obtain Earth-level supernatural powers!"
"There are still millions of original sin seeds. Are we going to change our careers and become businessmen?"
"Two envoys, what are the president's review criteria?" A chief priest came to ask Wu Xinfeng and Jin Laobiao.
"Are all the powers going to be taken away?"
How would Jin Laobiao know this? The president didn’t tell him.
Therefore, he said nothing. No one could see his expression anyway since he was hiding behind the Soul-Devouring Blood Robe.
Wu Xinfeng was much calmer and said slowly: "Don't think that the president thinks highly of your things. He tramples on the strong but never bullies the weak. If the power you hold does not meet his requirements, it will be confiscated."
"So, we don't need to hand over our blood?" Robert asked. "After all, the power of blood only affects individuals. Transforming them into blood will not have any other effects."
"certainly."
Qiao Ji had explained this to him when he left just now, so Wu Xinfeng dared to give such an affirmative answer.
It seems that most of the review work falls on him.
This is a good thing. He can investigate in detail the special forces of the various factions in the Jian Gu Society. This is a great job for him as an intelligence officer and he has been longing for it.
"Then can our Stoneman faction surrender it?"
"You don't need to. Your power only turns human flesh into stone. It has no effect."
This is a faction with little influence, but the power it possesses is not that strong. When transformed into stone men, their strength and defense are increased, but their disadvantages are also obvious. They will become slow and their brains may not work very well. The stone men of a faction seem to be able to share vision.
Fortunately, they don’t share the same brain.
They also have the ability to control soil and rocks to a certain extent, so they are the experts in excavation within the Jian Gu Society. The last time they followed the former president to the island to dig the Demon God's altar, they suffered heavy losses. Now, only one chief priest is left alive in this faction.
"Can't you make some compromise?" The stone man chief priest asked, using his mental power to communicate with Wu Xinfeng alone, "Or, can I join your army? I am willing to hand over the Heart of Stone and the Soul-Eating Blood Robe to my successor."
His mental power was becoming increasingly violent. "I've had enough of working in the dark underground for so long. Now that I'm back in the real world, I have to wear a face made by the worst sculptor!"
"No one wants to sleep with an ugly freak like me, and no one wants to marry me. In fact, I don't even know if my thing still works. Last time I saw moss in the folds of my skin..."
Wu Xinfeng was really enlightened by the endless complaints about mental power in private chats.
This high priest was probably tired of being a miner and a rough and ugly stone monster, and wanted to change into a hidden and powerful earth-level jealousy seed and enjoy life.
Wu Xinfeng feels that being a member of this villain organization is not that easy. It would be better for them to find a proper job than to stay in this faction.
But the former president would definitely not allow it, what a useful subordinate he was.
