Chapter 479 Fermentation

Before the thick smoke and flames on the stolen ground had completely disappeared, the priests and the Holy See knights who were performing the stolen turned and left - this position full of pungent smell and was watched by a large number of ignorant and foolish people made the priests and knights feel irritated. Although on weekdays, they would enjoy staying on the scene and enjoy the awe and panic of the people around them, they obviously did not feel like this now.

There are still a lot of troubles to deal with in the church area, and the impact of the brochures is not limited to the outer city.

The ordinary soldiers in the square also withdrew, and the gathered people also scattered. The short stolen stolen slightly broke the dead atmosphere in the siege, but it could not make people feel excited. On the contrary, a fire in the square only brought fear and doubt to people-

The one who was burned to death was an illiterate tramp... The church just caught someone casually... The essence of heresy judgment is intimidation and violence.

Ordinary people may not have known whether the things on the brochure are real or not, but now the church has at least taken the initiative to admit that some of them are real.

The crowd dispersed, leaving only some of the Holy See's servants who were guarding the burning site to guard the burning site. They had to wait until the fire was completely extinguished to clean up the ashes here to prevent the fire from causing the fire. The last small group of sparse civilians wandered around the edge of the square, but the Holy See's servants who were guarding the scene did not care about these wandering crowds - they were just a group of fools who did nothing.

Several people dressed in farmer and craftsman apprenticeships crawled into the nearby narrow alley after leaving the square, easily shook everyone's eyes and gathered in a semi-abandoned hut.

A man with messy hair and deep eye sockets spitted at the side: "Those bastards... just burned an innocent person to death..."

"They have always been like this," another young man with dark skin whispered, "It's a pity that we can't save that poor man..."

The few people gathered in the hut couldn't help but sigh, while a vague and twisted shadow suddenly appeared in the shadows in the corner of the hut. The shadow trembled in the air twice, quickly gathering, condensing into a petite figure: "We can't save everyone, and our mission is not allowed to risk exposure to save people - when things happen, the only way we avoid standing by is to use the skills we have learned on weekdays and use every opportunity to spread chaos and division between our opponents."

The few people gathered in the cottage saw the petite figure emerging and immediately stood up and saluted respectfully: "Director!"

"The position cannot be called in the task, even if it is confirmed that the surrounding safety is the same. If you commit another crime next time, everyone will remember it - there are still many things you need to learn," Amber waved his hand, and a sentence made the faces of the people in front of him change. Then she looked around, "But your actions in the square are quite qualified."

This is a special operation team of the Military Intelligence Bureau, and Amber personally led them.

Lu'an City has been blocked, and the last time someone entered and exited the city gate was twenty days ago. However, for Amber, who has mastered the profound shadow skills, it is not difficult to send a team and a batch of supplies into Lu'an City through the shadow world. Even if Amber, the "Military Intelligence Director", does not take action, the professionally trained military intelligence operators also have a lot of professional skills to help them quietly enter the city and lurk in the outer city.

The slack attitude of the priests and knights in the cathedral to the outer city gave this team great convenience - it is obvious that the people in the cathedral have no experience in dealing with spy destruction, or in other words, almost everyone in this era will appear to be full of flaws when facing the military intelligence operators trained by Cecil.

The temporary Bishop Luan focused most of his attention on maintaining the operation of the church area. For the outer city where a large number of "useless civilians" gathered, he only arranged the minimum number of soldiers and precept monks to maintain order. This is understandable in the context of this era: in the form of confrontation in this era, only the extraordinary and the vassal powers around the extraordinary are valuable, and most of the lower-level people have neither the power to shake order nor the idea of ​​actively resisting. For the lower-level civilians, using enough force to shock the lower-level civilians is enough to ensure order - this is the most "cost-effective" idea so far.

However, the military intelligence agencies are experts who start to penetrate from these bottom areas and gradually spread chaos to the upper level.

Starting five days ago, Amber led the team to lurk in Lu'an City. According to the orders of the upper level, they spread the first batch of publicity materials in the outer city and kept spreading the situation in Lu'an City outside. The priests of Lu'an Cathedral responded to those publicity materials slower than expected - until the first batch of materials were all spread, they finally noticed this.

Then there were searches and arrests that affected the whole city, as well as plunder and violence in the process.

Everything was expected by Amber—the Holy See knights in Luan and the exile knights who fled in were accumulating huge pressure. As long as there was any reason to vent, their pressure would immediately turn into shameful atrocities.

And they don't think there is anything wrong with doing this.

Although the situation inside the church area is not clear, Amber can also guess what will happen in the walls of the inner city: some of the content in the propaganda materials directly point to the conflicts of interests within the church, while others implicitly mention Cecil's preferential policy for "awakening priests". Although it is impossible to directly pull the lower priests in the marginal areas to Cecil's side with this level of publicity materials alone, it is enough to cause a certain degree of shaken and confusion.

The city has been blocked for 60 days, and the internal contradictions that should be fermented have begun to ferment. At this moment, any form of fanning the flames will be unprecedentedly effective.

As the atmosphere inside the church area becomes tense, the instructors in Lu'an Cathedral will have less energy to pay attention to the outer city area - they may even think that the problems in the outer city have been completely solved by their "effective purification rituals", so as to relax their vigilance.

Then the next activities of the Military Intelligence Bureau operators will be easier.

Amber touched her smooth chin - this seemingly stylish thinking action was learned from Gao Wen, which can make herself look more majestic: "How is the working condition of the Magic Net terminal? Has the picture been transmitted back?"

A tall and thin military intelligence agency patted the black metal box placed at his feet: "It's in good condition - and the miniaturized magic net terminal is much lighter and very convenient to use."

This tall and thin military intelligence agency was the one who had previously carried a sackcloth bag in the square.

The black metal box at his feet was obviously a magic device - one end of it was slightly narrow, and a piece of crystal was embedded in the front end of the shell and directly above. The size of the entire metal box was less than half a meter. After wrapping things like straw around, it could be stuffed into a burlap bag.

It actually still has a considerable size and weight, and is not very portable, but for those who have seen the Magic Network Communicator prototype, this device is already an incredibly small black technology.

"Be careful when using it - the mechanical bachelors have worked so hard to make it so small," Amber nodded. "This is the key to defeating those charlatans. Our goal is not only to disintegrate Lu'an City, but not just to drive them out of the cathedral, but more importantly to drive them out of the 'South Frontier'. Whether this goal can be achieved depends on our next actions."

The officers of the Military Intelligence Bureau were ready to fight and were full of fighting spirit: "Yes!"

"Very good, then assign the next task - Skinny, you and the Hound continue to move in the outer city, record all the scenes that are unfavorable to the Church of the Holy Light and send them back to the headquarters; buck teeth, you and the mouse continue to spread the news that Bishop Lemont had said and done strange things near the church area, but be careful of your own safety. Others come to the Shadow World and move things."

The well-trained military intelligence officers took action immediately, and a team member named Amber into the Shadow World asked curiously: "Boss, what are you moving?"

"Flyers and albums," Amber grinned and smiled slightly, "and another twenty thousand copies were sent behind it - and more were on the way."

"Swish--" The team members couldn't help but whistle, with a happy smile on their faces, "They're not as hot as we print..."

...

After more than ten days and nights, the witch Jiple finally returned to this long-lost land.

She still remembered the scene she saw when she passed through the gate of the Rock Fortress in the north a few days ago. The magnificent Rock Fortress seemed to turn into a huge construction site, with scaffolding and construction machinery everywhere, and the entire fortress was completely renovated and rebuilt. The workers kept using steel plates and shock-absorbing skeletons day and night to strengthen the northern wall of the fortress. Magic technicians and mechanical sergeants installed magic cannons of all sizes on the rails and cannon mounts at the top of the city wall. The brand new magic net array and various magic equipment that they had never seen before were filled with sight, which almost made Gipley and Pierce, who was traveling with him, dazzled.

After seeing the scene of the Rock Fortress, two military intelligence agencies who had been doing missions for more than half a year realized that the return trip was correct: the local development speed was simply incredible. Living in the slow and backward Ansu King Capital, watching the nobles hold dances and socializing every day, I could not imagine what the hometown was developing every day. If I really lived in the King Capital for three or five years, I would probably be worse than the children after I came back.

But even with this awareness, when they really entered the city of Cecil, the capital of the Principality, the two operators were still in a long-term dullness.

This city... not only doubled its expansion from when they left, but also changed its street layout in many places.

The workshops and public sheds that were temporarily built before were moved to the industrial area in the east and were improved into huge factory facilities. The streets with only a few brick and tile houses and at most a few brick and tile buildings have become prosperous blocks, with Ansu style and emphasis on practicality in various areas like city guards. Between these areas, there are commercial blocks that have developed rapidly due to the increasingly prosperous economy...

The two military intelligence agencies probably never thought that a larger new urban area construction plan on the north bank of the Baishui River has entered the foundation laying stage - due to the population migration in the southern border and the continuous progress of village and town merger work, the population of Cecil City will double again...

Gipley and Pierce entered the city with mixed emotions of surprise and pride, and successfully completed the report at the Military Intelligence Bureau building - thank goodness, they were at least not lost in the military zone.

"Director Amber is performing his mission," said the reception staff of the Military Intelligence Bureau while registering the two foreign operators, "but she knows you will return in the near future and has arranged the next plan for you."

After completing the report registration, the young female clerk who served as receptionist handed the new identity certificate and information bag to Gipley and Pierce, then stood up straight and said solemnly: "Thank you for your contribution to Cecil - thank you for your hard work!"

Pierce and Gipley were a little surprised for a moment: they had been away from here for too long and had missed too many critical stages of organizational improvement, so they didn't know what to react for a while, so they had to smile a little embarrassed and restrained. Fortunately, the receptionist seemed to have expected the reactions of the two seniors in front of them, and also resolved the brief embarrassment with smiles: "Please don't be reserved, this is your home. Pierce Operator, you can disband and rest now. As for Jipley Operator... there is a special task for you."

Jipley opened her eyes wide in surprise: "Task?"

She couldn't help but mutter in her heart: Isn't there any vacation?

"Please relax. You don't need to go out for the field. The task content is relatively easy," the receptionist seemed to see Jiple's thoughts. She smiled a little mysteriously. "This task was issued by the lord - you can rest for a long time, please go to the lord's mansion to report on time at 4 pm."
