Chapter 428 Give the sand bandits a little bit of local tyrant shock
【The figures of Evans and others quickly disappeared into the distance, and only you and a group of bandits were left on the scene. 】
【You lead many sand bandits aboard the land ship, then start the land ship again, and set off in a mighty way. Under the guidance of a sand bandit, go to their lair hidden deep in the desert. 】
The next step is to follow the bandits on their way.
I don’t know if the other party is afraid of being followed. The directions pointed out along the way are left and right, completely irregular, more like going in circles.
After walking around the hot desert for several hours, the sand bandits finally gave the correct direction until the land ship went deep into the desert and confirmed that there was no one following behind.
Another half an hour later, a group of people finally arrived at the place.
【Under the guidance of the leading sand bandit, the sand land ship finally stopped in front of a seemingly ordinary sand dune. 】
【You walk down the sand dunes with everyone. The leading bandit walked to the top of the dune, leaned over to push aside the yellow sand on the ground, and reached into the sand to feel around. 】
【Accompanied by a tremor under your feet, you saw a deep entrance suddenly pop up on the sand under the dune in front of you, and the surrounding gravel poured in. You go up to check, and there is a stone staircase under the entrance, leading to the deep underground. 】
【All Sand Bandits were not surprised by this, they lined up to enter the entrance one by one. You put the land boat in your backpack, followed the team, and stepped into the underground stairs. 】
【After walking in the dark in a narrow passage, the front suddenly opened up. 】
【You appear in a huge underground palace, the ceiling is more than 30 meters high, and a row of lit torches are hung on the surrounding walls, illuminating the stone carvings full of desert folk style on the walls. 】
【Entering the palace, you realize that there are more bandits gathered in the hall. There are at least a thousand people in total, and the pattern of the nine-toothed sun is drawn on the clothes on each person's chest. 】
【The leading sand bandit quickly entered the hall, walked up to one of the bald sand bandits, whispered a few words in a low voice, and the surrounding people looked at you in surprise. 】
【After listening to the introduction, the bald sand bandit came towards you, and several sand bandits behind him also came to you with weapons in hand, and surrounded you. 】
【"You said you were a follower of Julius Caesar?" The bald bandit squinted at you and asked. While asking questions, the sand bandits around all raised their weapons and exuded a fierce aura. It seemed that as long as you said a word wrong, they would immediately raise their axes and chop you down. 】
【"Yes." You answered without fear, turning a blind eye to the bandits around you. 】
【"You said that you are a wealthy businessman from the Laner Empire, and you deliberately sold all your property to join us?" the bald bandit asked again. 】
【"Exactly." You replied in a steady tone. 】
【The bald bandit stared at your eyes for tens of seconds before nodding: "Well, now, you can show your sincerity to prove your loyalty to Caesar!"]
To put it simply, if you want to join a church, you have to pay the fee first. This is the usual routine of church organizations.
【You didn't rush to take out the money, but first asked about the contribution of the church and the composition of the personnel organization. 】
【The bald sand bandit looked at the other sand bandit, who nodded and read the 'Caesar's Canon' to you. 】
[The composition of the members of the Caesar Church is divided into bishops, esoteric religions, priests, fanatics and believers from top to bottom, and each department is subdivided into one to nine stars. Contributions can be obtained by donating money, completing organizational tasks, or developing offline, helping the organization to absorb personnel and expand the team. The higher the status, the higher the status in the organization, the greater the authority, and the more resources you can enjoy every day. In the future, when Emperor Caesar is resurrected, he will have more opportunities to be favored by the emperor...]
The corner of Mu You's mouth twitched after watching it. Good guy, there are forty or fifty levels in an organization with only a thousand people. The status is directly linked to welfare, and everyone is encouraged to develop offline. Isn't this a standard pyramid scheme? org-mode...
【After reading the canon, all the bandits stared at you, waiting for your action. your choice…】
【You opened the king’s treasury and took out a fist-sized diamond ‘Angel’s Tears’. While the other bandits were dumbfounded, you handed it to the bald bandit: “I want to dedicate this to the organization!”]
【"Angel's tears, worth... 3,3500 contribution points!" The sand bandit holding a pen and paper next to him and responsible for counting the contribution points announced tremblingly. This one diamond alone is already higher than the contribution they have made after working so hard for a year. 】
【You have obtained 3500 contribution points. 】
【Your status in Caesar's religion has risen to 'nine-star believer'. 】
"Are you a nine-star believer?"
Mu You clicked his tongue and was not satisfied. The level of believers is the lowest. In the future, the contribution required for each level will only double. The contribution of the last two positions is likely to be astronomical! Judging from this model, if ordinary people join in and want to rise to a high position, they need to be cows and horses for hundreds of thousands of years.
It's useless to entangle with these ordinary members here. Mu You's goal is to meet the founder of this organization, so that he can quickly find out whether the organization has the real thing about Caesar's resurrection. If he wants to do this One point, he must at least rise to the level above the secret religion.
Mu You has no time to rise up step by step, and since the king has given him financial support and allowed him to use the treasury, it's over if you continue to spend money at this time.
【While the other bandits were still intoxicated by the beauty of Angel Tears, you suddenly took out another pearl the size of a human head, which radiated dazzling brilliance in the dark underground hall. 】
【"Deep sea night pearl, worth... 5000 contribution points!" The sand bandit in charge of statistics spoke again tremblingly, causing another uproar at the scene. 】
【Your status in Caesar's religion has risen to 'five-star fanatic'. 】
…
【You donated a 'Heiyao Glazed Stone Sculpture'...】
【Your status has risen to 'eight-star fanatic'...】
…
【You donated a box of 'Pure Gold Bricks'...】
【Your status has risen to 'one-star priest'...】
…
Next, Mu You began to take out treasures from the king's treasury while a group of bandits were stunned, and then donated them without blinking an eyelid.
The king doesn't care, and he directly handed over the entrance to the treasury, so why should he be embarrassed, but he just spends money, anyway, he didn't seek personal gain, everything now is to complete the task, which is completely in line with the withdrawal requirements.
【You donated 'Crystal Angel Statue'*3...】
【Your status has been raised to 'one-star bishop', the bandit in charge of statistics numbly announced your status promotion, and revised your information on the record board. The other sand bandits watching you also looked numbly as you threw the three crystal clear angel statues into the storage statue, then turned their heads mechanically, waiting for you to take out the next treasure...]
【You have lived up to everyone's expectations, you continue to open the vault ring, and are about to take out the next thing, but you find that the entrance to the vault has been closed to you. 】
【The king rejected your request to extract the treasure! Your vault temporary credentials have expired. 】
"Um?"
Mu You was taken aback for a moment, why did he refuse? He didn't violate the rules, all the treasures he took out were donated, and he didn't take a cent.
Moreover, there are still plenty of treasures in the treasury. In the wave of donations just now, only about two-thirds of the total was donated, which helped him to be promoted to a one-star bishop.
If you donate all the rest, you might be able to surpass the bishop and become the highest-ranking person in this church. Mu You is very curious about what will happen then.
Unfortunately, the king refused to let him donate at the critical moment, stingy!
Mu You shook his head and had no choice but to stop the options.
【You stopped taking out the treasure. The bandits around saw that you hadn't taken out the new treasure, and they were still a little dazed. After a few seconds, everyone came back to their senses: the donation is finally over! 】
【Everyone looked at you with pity or unfulfilled desires, but in the end, these gazes turned into worship and admiration. Many people realized that they had recruited a real benefactor this time! 】
【And those congregants who had doubts about you before have all doubts disappeared at this moment: absolutely no one can pay such a huge price for acting as an undercover agent! You must be a true fanatical follower of Julius Caesar, and the purity of your belief exceeds that of everyone present. You deserve the title of bishop! 】
【"My lord bishop, please welcome the other three bishops!" The bald bandit saluted you humbly, his tone and gaze full of flattery. Apart from the three bishop founders, he is already the highest-ranking person in Caesar's religion, but he is only a priest at present, and he should remain humble in front of you. 】
Mu You breathed a sigh of relief, this show of money ability was finally not in vain, and directly smashed out the three founders behind this organization.
Mu You naturally manipulated the characters and went to meet these three people, but considering some things that might be encountered in this kind of MLM organization, he thought about it and released the scout beetle in advance.
【You followed the bald sand bandit to the depths of the underground palace, and scout beetles were quietly released on the way. 】
【The scouting beetle is carrying a picture crystal, hiding in the cracks of the ground, and silently followed you to the depths of the underground palace. 】
【You pushed open the door and entered a slightly dark secret room. The walls on all sides of the secret room are covered with various instruments of torture, more like a execution ground. In addition, on the ground in the center of the secret room, a worm pool several meters deep was excavated, in which countless hungry holy animals were piled up. beetle. 】
【As soon as you enter the secret room, you feel that the surrounding space is being restrained. All spatial abilities in this secret room cannot take effect. 】
【As you enter the secret room, the door behind you will automatically close. 】
【"Welcome, a stupid rich man? Or, an undercover agent who is willing to spend money? So, which one are you?"】
【A voice sounded from the depths of the secret room. 】
[Looking up, you can see three fat-haired middle-aged men sitting on the three thrones inside the secret room, each dressed in red, yellow, and blue robes. The large throne is even a bit difficult to accommodate them Overweight body. 】
【You saw one of the middle-aged people holding a ball the size of a football in his hand. There was a pupil in the ball, like the eye of some giant beast. 】
【As you look, the pupils in the orbs also glared at you, and you suddenly felt your body become heavy, and an illusory golden chain gradually formed around you, making your whole body as heavy as lead. It becomes extremely difficult to raise a hand and throw a foot. 】
【Until more than ten seconds later, you were completely petrified by that eye, unable to move an inch. 】
【"What does this mean? I gave everything I have to Caesar, why did you do this to me?" You asked the three of them with an 'angry' look. 】
【"It looks like it's the former, a rich fool!" The three of them looked at you teasingly. 】
【"What do you mean? Aren't you followers of Caesar? Do you have a way to revive Caesar?"]
Mu You took the opportunity to ask. This is the question he cares most about. He has not yet figured out the details of this organization.
【"Hehe, you are so stupid!" Cardinal among the three sneered: "But since you have contributed so much assets to us, let me tell you the truth."】
【"Of course we don't have the means to revive Caesar! The entire Caesar religion is just a scam. wealth…"】
After reading it, Mu You was quite disappointed, it was really a pure MLM organization...
What disappointed him was not that this organization was fake, but that Caesar's clues were interrupted. All the preparations he had made before were all in vain, and everything had to start all over again.
【"Now, there are two choices before you." The cardinal among the three said again: "First, abandon your boring beliefs, join us, and help us continue to expand the scale of the organization and defraud more How many fools like you come to give us money, and then we will eat meat, and you can also drink some soup."]
【"Second, reject our proposal, and then be sent to the worm pond by us like the few undercover agents sent by the Aldromal Empire before, to be tortured by insects until they are eaten by insects."】
【"You are insulting the reputation of Caesar, I would rather die than join you! 'Long live Caesar'!" You shouted impassionedly in the direction of the scouting beetle. 】
After confirming that this group of people are liars, Mu You can actually leave directly now, but there is no hurry, the acting needs to be complete, and Mu You is now more curious about the eyeball held by the three of them.
【"Hmph, since you can't get in like this, then go to hell!" The cardinal snorted coldly, moved down from the chair with difficulty, and walked towards you. 】
【"To tell you the truth, the palace we are in now is one of the palaces built by Caesar during his lifetime, and this punishment room is also where Caesar carried out the "insect-eating punishment" for those who angered him. place." The cardinal sneered and said, "Since you believe in Caesar so much, then use your flesh and blood to feed these scarab pets of Caesar!" After the cardinal finished speaking, he wanted to push you into the rear In the worm pond. your choice…】
Mu You directly exited the game and went offline, then logged in again, refreshing the petrification state on his body.
【You appeared in the 'Insect Devouring Dungeon'. 】
【Before you rushed to the distant throne, before the three of you could react in time, you snatched the eyes from the fat man in yellow. 】
【You have obtained the 'Eye of the Divine Beast'. 】
[The Eye of the Beast: This eyeball looks like the eyeball of some mysterious giant beast. It has the ability to petrify everything. When it looks at a certain target, the target will gradually enter a petrified state. The petrification time depends on the intelligence value. , when the eyes look away, the petrification will gradually be lifted. 】
【You hold the Eye of the Divine Beast in your arms, the pupils in the eyeballs turn to you curiously, and you feel your body getting heavy quickly...】
【You hurriedly took out a piece of cloth and covered your eyeballs, the heaviness on your body disappeared immediately. 】
The ability of this eyeball is good, but it seems unstable, and it seems that there is still self-awareness. He holds it in his hand, and the eyeball still looks at him!
In addition, what attracted Mu You's attention was the name of the eyeball: Eye of the Divine Beast!
Coupled with the fact that the eyeball has self-awareness, Mu You suddenly realized that maybe this divine beast is still alive? So using this eye, is there a chance to find the body of this 'divine beast'?
Of course, this is something.
At this moment, Mu You robbed his eyeballs, and the text reminded that the three bishops rushed towards him like crazy, trying to **** them back.
As a result, needless to say, these three liars are so fat, and their fighting power is even weaker. How could they be his opponents?
【You beat all three of them to the ground casually. 】
【The three bishops found that they couldn't help you, and hurriedly pressed the switch on the wall, and shouted for help outside. 】
【Tens of seconds later, a group of believers who received the bishop's plea for help rushed into the secret room with weapons in hand, and came to rescue him. 】
【As soon as the believers entered the door, they saw the scene of you beating three bishops unilaterally. They immediately looked at each other, not knowing what to do. 】
【"He is a traitor sent by the Almare Empire! He is here to destroy the enemy of our church. Why don't you catch him?" The cardinal hurriedly shouted when he saw the crowd as if he had seen a savior. 】
【A group of believers were shocked when they heard the words, and they all looked at you with unkind eyes, with murderous aura surging all over their bodies. your choice…】
【You picked up the scout beetle and played the video recorded by the video crystal to everyone. 】
The camera was set up in advance to prevent this kind of thing, and now it is really used.
【The three major bishops looked at the scenes played back in the photo crystal, their faces were ashen, and after watching the videos, all the believers were either at a loss, or sad, or unbelievable, and finally turned into anger! 】
[Amid the pleadings of the three bishops, the believers unceremoniously poured out their anger on the three of them, punched and kicked them, and then pushed them out of the worm pool one after another, watching the three of them accept the worm bite of Emperor Caesar punishment. 】
【It wasn't until the lifespans of the three of them were completely exhausted and they were eaten into bones by scarabs that all the believers were relieved. 】
【However, after venting, everyone was immediately greeted with a huge emptiness and confusion. 】
[The three bishops in the photo just now made it very clear that the church was fake from the very beginning, and they did not have the means to revive Caesar, which means that the existence of Caesar's religion is meaningless. Next, Where should they go? 】
【A group of congregants turned their attention to you after being stunned and sad. 】
【"Please guide the bishop!" As the first believer kneels down to you, more and more believers kneel down to you, begging you for guidance. 】
【You are the person with the highest status in the church today, and your performance in the video just now also proves that your belief in Caesar is extremely devout. Now only you are qualified to lead everyone! your choice…】
Although this church is fake, this group of believers seem to be genuine devout believers, so maybe they can take advantage of it.
["Don't be confused. Now that the moths in the church have been removed, our faith has become more pure. As for the method of resurrecting Caesar, we will find it ourselves!" You chose to inspire everyone impassionedly. All the believers lost their confusion and looked at you more devoutly. 】
【"Long live Caesar!" The first believer shouted excitedly. 】
【"Long live Caesar!" More and more believers followed. 】
【"Long live the Cult of Caesar!" "Always follow the bishop..." The entire palace was filled with deafening shouts of believers. 】
…
In the pet shop, Mu You looked at the thousands of believers who were easily incited by him in the game, touched his chin, and considered whether to run away with the money immediately? Or mobilize these people to help him find clues to Caesar, and then run away with money...
Just as Mu You was hesitating about how to arrange it, a new text suddenly popped up in the game.
【...Amidst the shouts of the crowd, you suddenly noticed a sand scorpion creeping up to your feet, and put down a letter pierced on the tail hook, and then retreated quietly. 】
【You pick up the letter and check it. It turns out that Pocket Toad entrusted the letter to you from the sand scorpion friend it just met. Do you want to open it immediately? 】
Mu You was taken aback for a moment, it was actually a letter from Frog?
But, what the **** is the 'sand scorpion friend I just met'? Is the frog son in the desert now?
