Chapter 213 Probing(1/2)
After spending the night at the Trafficker's Inn, Balliard was called out by Beecher the next day.
"I thought you would come to see me last night."
Balliard was not panicked at all, but Beecher's intensely scrutinizing eyes traced traces of panic on Balliard.
"Are you really Annie's brother?"
Anne was so deceitful that Beecher suspected that this was a group of similar people who were targeting Anne. Anyway, because of Anne's "cooperative" actions, people in the village regarded him as Anne's uncle, so,
Balliard may not really be Anne's biological brother.
"Of course, I am different from you. Don't think that I can't figure out your plans. However, seeing that Annie is having a good time these days, I won't deal with you for the time being."
Deal with them? Where does Balliard have the courage? Let alone this is Demacia. As long as he uses magic, he will be hunted by the army. Even if it is not Demacia, before Beecher's identity is figured out, Barley
Yade also had no idea of taking action.
What if the background is deep?
This is not the world line of Legend of the Jade Sword. In that world line, there is someone behind Baliard's back, which can be regarded as some background.
The first big boss behind Baliard is Master Dolan of the Wuji Gym. Even though Baliard has not been studying there for a long time, he is actually the second-ranked Master Dolan in this class.
Disciple, in that world where the sword is the most respected, Balliard, as the second disciple of the most famous Wuji Gym in the world, even if he offends anyone, wouldn't those people think twice before taking action?
The second big boss is, of course, Longshe. His origin is unknown, but he has dealt with Marquis Kaiyang and Tryndamere. He has an unusual relationship with Ornn, and he seems to have known Balliard later.
Teacher Jin, of these four people, two are demigods, and the other two are comparable to demigods in some or several aspects. How can ordinary people know these four people at the same time? Even Longshe has not asked Baria until now.
De explained his identity, but it was certainly not ordinary.
The third big boss is Irelia. Balliard is working for Irelia, so Irelia is of course his backstage.
The fourth one is Jhin, the jester who took control of the government after the death of the traitor. Now he is the leading minister, with almost as much power as the traitor. Poor Kayn thought that he would be able to stand out after the traitor died.
He also asked Balliard to prevent the traitor from getting the jade sword, and then what? His most trusted minister became the next traitor.
However, even before Jhin became a traitor, with his ability to survive between Qingliu and the traitors for more than ten years, neither the traitors nor Qingliu would attack Balliard, lest Jhin completely
Go to their enemy's side.
And the last big boss... Although Balliard doesn't want to admit it, Ryze has indeed become his backer. Ryze is the literary saint of the Legend of Jade Sword world line and is born with Taoism, and Balliard is also
Born with Taoism, now, neither the literati in the court nor the gods in the sky are sure of attacking Balliard. What if - a Ryze is provoked?
However, in this world line, Balliard has no background and no time to find a background for himself. Now he encounters a human trafficker organization that is so rampant that it is still calm even after being caught. Let Balliard
Do you believe that this organization has no background? How can you believe it?
"You won't deal with us for the time being? It seems that you are not an ordinary person. What is the purpose of approaching Anne?"
Beecher didn't believe Balliard's words. After all, he himself claimed to be Anne's guardian. Although Anne now admitted that he was her brother, was this "brother" her real brother, or was he just beaten by someone with a lollipop on the way?
The sworn brother who sold himself?
"...What do you think my purpose is?"
Purpose? There is something wrong with this. If you were just a human trafficker, you wouldn't ask this question, because if everyone is a human trafficker, of course they will sell Anne to a noble family as a young lady, and this way
If so, is it necessary to ask about the purpose?
"No matter what your purpose is, I warn you to stay away from Anne. She is the priest chosen by our Holy Moon Sect. We are already searching for her parents. If her parents are really dead, not herself.
If she runs away from home without authorization, we will bring her back to the sect, and where did your brother come from? From the information we have now, Anne has no brother."
Beecher's words confused Balliard.
Sect? Priest? This is no joke. The gods of Runeterra are real, and mortals cannot imagine how many gods there are in this world. In theory, as long as mortals establish a sect, no matter what they believe in
, will have their own gods, not to mention that Beecher's sect believes in the moon, or the "sacred" moon.
Priests are the medium for communication between believers and gods. If this sect really intends to make Anne the priest of the Holy Moon, then it is really pie in the sky. Look at Illaoi and Naga Kapolo
The True One of Silk is actually a priest, but just because she is the priest of Naga Kapoulos, her strength is higher than that of the demigod
All of them are top notch.
Although ordinary gods are not as exaggerated as Naga Kapoulos, if you become a priest of a god, your strength will still be improved to a certain extent. Annie's current realm should be close to the ninth level. This hurdle is very
It is difficult to overcome, because before the ninth level, most people's power is still limited to the "material" level, but starting from the ninth level, the power of extraordinary beings comes into contact with the mind and soul, as if from a "material" level
The world has entered the world of "idealism".
This is a good thing. Earning the position of a priest for no reason and being favored by a god. Does Balliard think Anne is too lucky?
"Then there must be something wrong with your information. How come Annie doesn't have me as her brother? Although her parents are dead, I'm not dead yet."
Balliard suddenly noticed another problem. He was a person favored and blessed by the sun. Even if the sun did not bless him willingly, the aura of the sun on his body could not be erased in a short time, and
This sect is the Holy Moon. Does the god of this sect have a good relationship with the sun? What if there is another sect that wants to fight to the death with the Sun Sect?
Moreover, how long has Anne been in this world? It's only five or six years, and Anne is a child. If she doesn't change for five or six years, she will definitely be found to be abnormal. Therefore, Anne will definitely choose to wander around and visit her every once in a while.
Years change places, as for parents...can Annie find parents for herself? Or are they victims?
However, Annie only appeared in this world line for five or six years, and she had to move due to her slow growth rate. It is conceivable that she also concealed her identity. These people collected Annie's information,
But how many could there be? Valliard bet that this guy was cheating him.
"How did your parents die?"
Beecher still didn't believe Balliard. Just as Balliard firmly believed that he was not a good person, he also firmly believed that Balliard was not a good person. They had almost completed the investigation and could take Anne with them immediately.
At the sect's headquarters, Annie began to be trained to become a priest. Then, a brother suddenly appeared?
If this is true, it means that there are omissions in their intelligence network, and this omission has two aspects. On the one hand, the information they obtained is incomplete, which is very dangerous for what the sect wants to do and is very likely to undermine it.
The great plan of the church.
The second aspect - they have been discovered. There is a spy among the intelligence personnel who provided them with wrong information. And Anne is very likely to be the spy planted by the opponent. Although this possibility is very small, she must not
Not on guard.
"...Don't you think this is rude? Or do you want to have sex with me right now?"
How could Balliard know how the parents Anne was looking for in this world line died, or whether they had no parents at all or were not dead? However, as a son of a human being, people who had known each other for a short time talked about this topic unscrupulously. Balliard
Isn’t virtue still something that can’t be brought into play through the use of topics?
"...It's my fault. Goodbye, Anne's brother."
Beecher left, and he didn't get much useful information. From the current point of view, Balliard is likely to be related to Anne, but whether they are relatives needs further investigation. However, this confirms the omissions of the sect's intelligence agency, and it must be
It should be reported as soon as possible, and then it will depend on whether the organization's plan is implemented in advance or delayed.
Walking out of Balliard's room, Beecher walked towards an ordinary room, gently closed the door, touched the mechanism, and walked into the basement. In the basement, he took out a full moon badge.
This is the symbol of the Holy Moon and a communicator for members of their sect to communicate with each other, but now, he does not want to communicate with ordinary members.
He picked up a small knife on the table and cut his palm. The blood dripped on the badge and blended in. The originally white and light yellow badge quickly became covered with the color of blood. He put the badge on
On the table, the wound on his hand was already scarred. This time, he bit his finger and used the blood on his finger to slide on the magic circle on the table. The rune energy entered the magic along with his blood donation.
In the formation, the badge also emitted a bloody light, and the connection was successful.
"Beecher Joyce, what do you have to report?"
An old man's voice came through the badge. Listening to the voice, the old man seemed a little dissatisfied. It's no wonder that Beecher Joyce is just a low-level member of the sect, but this old man is the real power figure of the sect.
One of the symbols of the sect, if the core members hadn't known that there was a mysterious person behind the scenes in the organization, I'm afraid this old man would be the bishop of the Holy Moon Sect.
"Lord Kieran, the girl who has the potential to become a priest was discovered not long ago. Suddenly a brother appeared. There is no information about her brother in our intelligence. I suspect that there is an insider in the organization. Annie and her
My brother is about to sneak into the sect through this mole, what should I do now?"
Although Beecher only doubted Anne and Balliard, his suspicion was enough. He did not need more reasons. As long as he doubted Anne and Balliard, he had to deal with these two people. However, Anne was qualified to be a
Priest, he cannot make decisions on his own, everything must be decided by the superiors.
"...take him
Come on, that man may also join the sect. As long as they come in, there is no need to worry about them having other purposes."
In the distant Besilico, Kieran used his time magic to briefly visit the future. He saw Valliard and Anne, but before he could further explore the future, a powerful force pulled him out of time.
After pushing it out, Kieran, whose magic was forcibly interrupted, spat out a mouthful of blood and gave his order.
Although it was short-lived, he discovered something unusual about Anne and Balliard. Anne's power was full of explosions and destruction, which was very suitable for their sect. If he could become a priest, he should be able to obtain it after the ceremony began.
With stronger power, the sect will be more confident in implementing its plan.
As for Balliard, Kieran felt that the power that pushed him out of time came from Balliard. The smell of destruction, decay, and death is still lingering on his arm. He is simply a natural vessel. Perhaps
There is no one who can become the most powerful fighting force of the sect. No matter what, as long as these two people are brought into the sect and become their own, Kieran will have stronger confidence in the plan of the sect.
"……I see."
Beecher is just a mortal. Although he is a little special, he is still just a mortal. He does not have the realm and power of a transcendent, nor does he have any powerful talents. I don’t know the special characteristics of Balliard and Anne. The reason why he can
It was discovered that Annie was the one who was carrying an instrument that sensed rune energy that was shaking violently, and the person who caused the instrument to tremble was just a little girl. What a terrifying talent.
He originally thought that Kieran would let him take Anne back and kill Balliard. After all, he had already reported Anne's talent. A priestess was very important to the sect, even if she was still young.
, but with such powerful runic energy at such an age, with a little training, he can become the top combat power of the sect.
To be continued...
