Volume 4 Blood Diamond Chapter 303: Using Force to Overcome Cleverness
Peacock City.
History and Ceremonial Society Resident.
Branch president Pearson was furious because the operation suffered an unprecedented blow.
What was originally thought to be a simple matter resulted in the death of the branch vice president Osmond and fourteen extraordinary members. Pearson immediately dispatched two other vice presidents to lead a team to investigate the matter.
But the result surprised everyone.
"Spade Knight Joke! How could it be him?!"
When Pearson learned who the attacker was, he felt a chill down his spine.
He didn't expect that the vicious guy from this mysterious realm would actually wander into Peacock City. What bad luck had happened to Osmond and his crew to deserve such a disaster?
Pearson couldn't help but suppress a ball of anger in his heart, and he needed to vent it out.
Of course, he didn't dare to cause trouble for Spade Knight. With the strength of the Peacock City Association, even if all of them went out, they might not be enough for the other party to kill with one hand.
So he reported the situation, hoping that the top leaders would send out the "Ancient Reader Team" composed of elite extraordinary people to pursue. Pearson vented his anger on Don Mann and the entire Simon family.
Although the Simon family is a well-known wealthy business family in Peacock City, second only to the branch of the "Moses Voyage" Group, in the final analysis, they are just ordinary people.
Faced with the deliberate targeting of the History and Ritual Association, not only will they lose their business, but even their previously decent life will cease to exist.
As all the industries under the Simon family were blocked, the whole family began to panic. Tang Mann personally visited his old friends, hoping to get some help, but ultimately returned empty-handed.
The Simon family is in big trouble!
No one in the entire Peacock City is willing to help them!
Tang Manen seemed to have aged ten years overnight. His hair had turned a lot whiter and he looked gloomy and had lost his former fighting spirit and passion. He now only wanted to find a way out for his family.
However, the tribesmen inside did not appreciate it and even began to blame him, saying that they should have donated those useless collections directly to the History and Ritual Association, otherwise the current embarrassing situation would not have occurred.
Even among those who blamed him were his own son and daughter.
Tang Maen secretly hated these clansmen for their short-sightedness and their complete lack of understanding of the hidden secrets. Of course, he knew that the three collections were nothing, but if he handed them over so easily, it would mean that the other party would think that the Simon family was weak and could be bullied, and they would probably take advantage of him in the future.
The best thing for him to do at that time was to make his attitude clear.
Who would have thought that the History and Ritual Association would dare to take such a risk and directly use the name and power of the Orthodox Church to ruthlessly suppress the Simon family.
Tang Manen had no choice but to seek help from the Peacock City Shelter.
After receiving the news, Team Leader Amos immediately held a meeting. He slammed the table angrily and denounced the History and Ritual Association for not being worthy of being one of the Orthodox Churches.
Since they took over Peacock City, they have never done anything that is conducive to the stability of the empire. Every time a mysterious and dangerous incident occurs, they have various excuses to shirk responsibility and stand aside. Although the Madman School remains neutral most of the time, at least they do not cause trouble. They also support the establishment of Omto College and train many talents.
But the History and Ritual Association is just occupying the position of the Orthodox Church and not doing its job.
After the meeting.
Amos personally led a team of investigators to the headquarters of the History and Ritual Association, negotiated with President Pearson, and warned the other party not to use the power of the Orthodox Church to interfere in the lives of civilians.
Pearson smiled and agreed.
But the situation of the Simon family did not improve substantially.
…
…
…
On this day, Chen Lun received an invitation from Mr. Hoyle.
He asked Golov to drive the carriage himself and take him to the agreed tavern.
As soon as he entered, he saw Hoyle sitting in the corner, drinking alone.
"Mr. Jack, you are here."
Hoyle drank the wine in the glass in one gulp and said drunkenly.
The wine glass slammed heavily on the table, and the ice cubes hit the inner wall of the glass, making a crisp sound.
"I'm so sorry, Mr. Jack, I...I'm sorry to say that the performance can't go on...The City Garden Theater is finished, and it's closed now."
Hoyle smiled bitterly and raised his hands to rub his cheeks vigorously.
"Even the Simon family is almost finished."
Chen Lun sat down opposite Hoyle, poured himself a glass of water, and listened to the other person's talk silently.
Hoyle seemed a little decadent and frustrated because of the difficulties his family encountered. He no longer cared about so many things and directly told Chen Lun all about the suppression of the History and Ritual Association.
"Why...Shouldn't the True God Church protect the world? Why do they oppress us...We are just ordinary businessmen."
Hoyle supported his heavy head and spoke incoherently.
There was silence for a few seconds.
"What are you going to do?"
Chen Lun asked aloud.
"No...I don't know."
Hoyle shook his head in confusion.
"Perhaps, Father will take us away from Peacock City and start over somewhere else... a place without history and ritual associations."
Chen Lun looked at the other party, thought for a moment, and said:
"Mr. Hoyle, maybe you don't have to be so pessimistic. Maybe in two days, everything will be fine."
"No, it won't get better..."
Hoyle scratched his hair in agony.
"They are the True God Church. No one in Peacock City is willing to help us... Even the shelter can't do anything about it."
He poured himself a refill of liquor and looked at Chen Lun with an apologetic look on his face.
"The family has been in a mess these past few days, and my father has been too busy, so I haven't had a chance to talk to him about the collection... But please rest assured, if you really want to leave Peacock City, I will definitely help you get the collection before I leave."
Chen Lun sighed secretly.
He comforted Hoyle and told him not to worry about it anymore.
Hoyle probably didn't know that the three collections had already been snatched away by the History and Ritual Association, and now they were in Chen Lun's hands.
After a moment.
Hoyle drank too much and passed out on the table.
Chen Lun asked Golov to come into the tavern, help move Hoyle onto the carriage, and then sent him back to the Simon family's estate.
"Although I stole those three collections from the History and Ritual Association, I still owe the Simon family a favor."
Chen Lun left in a carriage and looked at the deserted manor through the carriage window.
"Since the History and Ritual Association is so persistent, I will help Hoyle solve this problem... I will feel better after returning the favor."
Chen Lun thought.
…
…
…
It is actually very simple to help the Simon family get rid of the suppression of the History and Ritual Association.
All we need to do is to make them chaotic, or even severely damaged, so that they won't have the time to care about the Simon family. It would be best to get rid of the president of the Peacock City branch of the History and Ritual Association, once and for all.
Chen Lun had no intention of competing with them in wits and courage.
The next day, he accepted a commission to murder the bishop of the Red Apple Church from the "commission menu" of the Murder Club, and then transformed himself into Spade Knight Jocko again and traveled to another district in Yanbang.
Chen Lun found the bishop in a red disaster area city called Yuhua City.
"【Sequence 6 - Bloodline】? ...That's enough."
In the church littered with corpses, Chen Lun dragged the huge silver sword and killed his way to the bishop.
This bishop named Cliff had obviously heard of the reputation of the Spade Knight. Perhaps it should be said that now everyone in the upper echelons of the Red Apple Church knew about this ruthless man.
But Cliff never expected that the other party would suddenly appear in Yuhua City and appear in front of him.
Some time ago, the church organized an ambush and encirclement against the Spade Knight. Although the opponent escaped by chance, it has only been a short time and this guy dared to show up again and continue to hunt the church.
Cliff was so shocked that he just wanted to roar loudly.
How dare you?!
How dare this guy?!
After a moment.
The bishop of the Red Apple Church collapsed to the ground like a dead dog, spitting blood from his mouth and his face looked ashen.
The Spade Knight in rusty armor slowly bent down, grabbed Cliff's neck, lifted him up, then took a step forward and disappeared on the spot with him.
Leap into the clouds!
Chen Lun used four cloud leaps in succession, crossing the distance between the two urban areas of Yanbang in a straight line and returning to the Bronze City of Peacock.
The whole process consumed a lot of physical energy. Chen Lun suppressed his fatigue and the desire to kill that was surging in his heart, and threw the bishop in his hand into the headquarters of the History and Ritual Association.
Prior to this, he also used "mind sharing" for the first time.
After some judgment, it was found that Cliff, the bishop of the Red Apple Church, was unable to match Chen Lun's will and power and was invaded by his mind.
The overwhelming killing desire was instilled from Chen Lun and instantly filled the other party's mind. Cliff's eyes suddenly turned red, and his face showed bloodthirsty killing intent, even showing a state of madness.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Lun gave the final "boost", which was to use the power of the bookmark to heal the other party's injuries.
After doing all this, Chen Lun quickly left.
Only the bishop of the Red Apple Church, who had fallen into a state of bloodthirsty madness, and a group of people from the History and Ritual Association who had heard the noise and were terrified were left behind.
Among them, Pearson, the president, was the most confused and angry.
He just couldn't understand why the bishop of the Red Apple Church had come to Peacock City and even to the association's headquarters building!
I didn't even hear a sound of the wind, it happened so suddenly .
So horrifying!
Boom! !
There was a loud bang, accompanied by roars and screams.
In the center of Peacock City, a building two blocks away from Jack Winery experienced a violent explosion and severe collapse.
This incident made the headlines of newspapers the next day.
"Good job, Cliff."
Chen Lun was eating breakfast in the living room, reading the newspaper with interest.
"Mr. Jack, who is Cliff?"
Noah asked doubtfully.
Chen Lun laughed, stuffed a fried meatball into his mouth, and said while chewing:
"A worthy bishop of the Red Apple Church. He bravely rushed into the building of the History and Ceremonial Society, beat President Pearson to a pulp with two punches, and then drained his blood."
He shook his head and said with emotion:
"It was so tragic. Although the asylum and the Madman School arrived in time and suppressed Bishop Cliff... nearly half of the people in the History and Ritual Association were massacred."
Noah blinked his eyes. He always felt that Mr. Jack was gloating.
But there is little evidence.
