Chapter 157 Conspiracy(1/2)
"You should know Mr. Karan, right?" Martin asked Bishop Aslan.
Bishop Aslan looked at Martin with some confusion, nodded slightly, without saying anything, waiting for his next sentence.
Martin relayed Mr. Karan's words to Bishop Aslan without reservation.
Both were smart people, and Bishop Aslan quickly understood what he was thinking.
"What do you mean is to take the initiative to gather the number of people in the first stage?" Bishop Aslan asked in surprise.
Martin nodded: "According to Mr. Karan's guess, the ceremony that happened in Faralin this time will not be too small, and it will take at least one to twenty people."
Bishop Aslan pondered for a moment, then said, "Then now summon the extraordinary people of the two temples..."
However, Martin quickly waved his hand to stop him: "These participants may be hostile to each other due to the ceremony and even kill them!"
If they were all extraordinary people in the temple, some of the people would definitely be lost.
"Then find a group of people to count!" Tiya, who was silent on the side, suddenly said.
Martin and Bishop Aslan looked at each other.
This method is very simple to say.
But who should I look for?
Who would be willing to attend a very dangerous ceremony?
Obviously, no one wants to take risks with his life.
However, this matter is probably not determined by personal will.
"How many death row prisoners are there in the city?" Aslan asked Tiya.
It is not impossible to use the death row prisoner to make up the numbers.
However, Tiya obviously doesn't know much about it, so she needs to go to the garrison to investigate first.
At 2 pm, when I returned to the garrison headquarters in the city center, I received five more reports of deaths from poisoning!
The ceremony seemed to be accelerating, and their movements had to be accelerated.
But Martin doesn't need to do anything more.
At around four o'clock in the afternoon, the first prisoner was successfully infected by Bishop Aslan.
By around 8 o'clock in the evening, a twenty-third prisoner had been selected as the target by the ceremony.
I have to say that scientific methods are still very important.
In a room in the Guards, Martin looked at the empty room, and six prisoners kept taking out the size of a table tennis ball from his pocket and throwing it in.
Several prisoners still had some shock on their faces.
They have been selected as targets and have been tested for the first time.
The dreamlike feeling and the end of seeing someone who was poisoned to death after choosing the wrong choice made them both shocked and scared.
They are not extraordinary people, they are just ordinary people who break the law.
The method of testing was also temporarily informed by Bishop Martin and Aslan.
The trigger mode of the ritual is very simple. When you are selected as the target and come into contact with some items related to the test problem, you have the probability of entering the test.
Therefore, when prisoners repeat something repeatedly, the probability of triggering becomes very high.
For example now...
One of the prisoners suddenly stopped, their eyes were dull, and they looked at somewhere in a daze, with no focus in their eyes.
Martin waved and stopped the others.
In the room, the other prisoners stopped their hands and looked at the companion in horror.
All these prisoners were death row prisoners, the kind who were extremely guilty.
Bishop Aslan agreed to reduce their crimes as long as they survived the test of the ceremony.
As for whether they can pass the test... it will be left to fate.
Martin didn't have much mercy for them.
Those who could be chosen by Bishop Aslan were all the traitors and evil people.
If life ends because of this, it will be a relief for them and it will also be considered a redeemable sin.
Of course, this is not intentionally causing them to die in vain.
In fact, the way to pass the ball test is extremely simple.
Even if you don’t understand the principles, you can pass the test according to the method taught by Martin.
Unless someone deliberately takes his life lightly and takes it seriously.
In the room, spirituality gradually dissipated.
Martin watched the man foaming at his mouth, twitching and falling to the ground, frowning.
What's going on?
You're not so stupid that you even told you the answer, can you still answer wrong?
Unfortunately, no one answered him.
Because in just a few seconds, the man had completely lost his life and turned into a corpse.
The garrison on the side received Martin's instructions and stepped forward to drag the body away.
Bishop Aslan frowned and came out of the next room, a body was dragged out inside.
"It seems a little wrong. The test content they saw has changed!" Bishop Aslan said.
A hint of surprise flashed across Martin's face.
Can you...you can still adjust the question yourself?
If this is the case, it will be troublesome!
Not many of these prisoners can pass the test.
Not long after, Tiya walked in.
"Six more people died of poisoning." She calmly narrated the facts, both in expression and eyes, and looked at the ancient well.
what to do?
Should I watch this ceremony start killing in the city...
Martin's brows were twisted into the character "Chuan", and he was trying hard to think about countermeasures in his mind.
In the quiet corridor, fluorescent lights illuminate the night.
The oil paintings on the wall are colorful, decorating the cold corridor with a bit of warmth.
Kent Samu, wearing a dress, stood in front of a painting, with his left hand standing on his chest and his right hand holding his cheek, as if he was enjoying the painting.
In front of him was a large painting, with a horizontal proportion, which looked about three meters long.
Da-da-da-da...
Leather boots landed on the marble floor, making a crisp sound.
A man in a vertical collar coat appeared at the end of the gallery and slowly walked towards this side.
The collar was standing up, almost covering most of the face.
On the remaining face, you can see several crisscrossing scars.
"This "Crown of Glory" is really a classic! But who knows that Charles the Great was not willing to bow his head to the Pope at that time. He picked up the crown and put it on himself, so he painted the scene where the Pope crowned the queen. It was very interesting, isn't it?"
Kent looked at the painting and said to himself.
The approaching man ignored Kent's words and said, "It has been resolved, I have readjusted the ceremony."
"Do you know what happened at the dinner after the crowning?" Kent asked staring at the oil painting.
After a while of silence, the man answered: "This is not a secret. Emperor Charles the Great announced that he would continue to go east and launch an expedition."
Kent immediately took over the conversation and sighed: "In order to make the warlock's bloodline break through, Emperor Charles is really anxious! Unfortunately, he almost succeeded."
"This celebration dinner is a signal of the beginning of the war. So, how long will it take for our dinner to officially begin?"
The man also looked at the painting and replied faintly: "It's almost..."
...
【You have been marked, passed the test 2/3】!
Martin woke up and looked at the progress of the rise again on the panel, and became more and more nervous.
Martin just experimented with it himself, and it turned out to be a test successfully.
Still a question of ball picking.
However, the balls became two piles, and the difficulty of the question suddenly increased.
To be continued...
