Quadruple split.

Chapter 480 Justice
A long, long time ago, Mo Tan once went to a place called Pato City, where he trapped a group of innocent cultists, harvested a pair of innocent horse boys, and stabbed an innocent cultist to death. good youth.

That good young man's name is Cordoba...

It was in front of an abandoned warehouse in Nancheng District. After being stimulated by the lunatics on the clock tower, the heroes at the scene of the baptism, and the cultists who committed mass murder, Cordoba, who had just been beaten to death by a group of orcs not long ago, finally received Enough is enough, he started to flee in a panic, and felt that there must be something wrong, otherwise there is no reason for an ordinary player like himself to suffer this kind of crime.

But the fact is the fact, the tailor shop owner that he was looking for in the guiding mission had died in the central square, and the whole Pato City was in chaos. The owner of the tavern is flirting with each other, the naive manager Lang En pinched two necks, and the clock tower geek who is mentally ill makes a big show. Cordoba was terrified.

With a strong shadow of death, he ran away on the spot, and was very lucky to avoid all the cultists wandering around the city wreaking havoc, and ran safely to an abandoned warehouse in the southern city.

After thinking for a while, Cordoba decided to pretend to be grandson for a while... Quail waited and watched, and decided to go offline to pick a skewer if the riots did not subside when it got dark.

However, there are unpredictable things in the sky, and people have misfortunes and blessings. The next second, Cordoba saw an elf man with blood on his hands coming out of the warehouse, and he just happened to bump into him.

It was the lunatic who showed off in the clock tower before, ran on the chief executive and killed the hostages with a big show!

The moment the two looked at each other, Cordoba was almost scared to pee.

Then he saw the lunatic laugh gently, put his index finger to his lips and gave himself a 'shh'.

This meow is definitely going to kill people! !
So Cordova turned around abruptly, and ran back along the road in big strides, shouting as he ran, "Help!!"

Then he died again.

Until now, Cordoba, who already has the second best combat effectiveness among the players, still remembers that day, the gang of bad guys who killed his mission NPC, and the bitch who killed himself!

Coincidentally, the bitch who killed him, um, Mo Tan with chaotic neutral personality also remembers that day. Of course, he has no impression of a passer-by K who was stabbed to death by himself with a dagger, and he always remembers it. What's new are those 'little discoveries' I made in the warehouse.

Delightful, lots of information about the Whispering Cult~
Mo Tan was particularly interested in those contents, because he discovered that this evil god sect was not an ordinary urban-rural combination organization, but a large-scale, well-organized, and deeply rooted large-scale gang, and this Pato City that was destroyed by himself Strongholds are just the tip of the iceberg.

So Mo Tan, who became interested, decided to plan the iceberg.

He's intrigued by the Whispering God's abilities, and by the leafy cult.

However, Pato City is only a small stronghold after all, and it is impossible to hide too much important information in it. Even if Lang En is a relatively promising little man in the Northwest Diocese, but a little man is a little man after all, and there are not many clues that can be unearthed. Well, most of the materials in the warehouse are innocuous, such as planning to use the power of whispers to solve sow dystocia and so on.

Of course, apart from the 'most' garbage, Mo Tan also found some useful clues, one of which received his special attention, and that was the few pieces of information written in the [Ritual Records] appendix, It recorded in a less detailed way the channel through which a certain superior stronghold exported 'sacrifices' here. After some simple confirmation, Mo Tan was surprised to find that the source was the Violet Empire where another character of his was currently in.

[Sacred Calendar 9570/Star Moon/Melody 5th, beast slave sacrifice 3, via the intermediate node 'Black Mercury', the lower node 'White Ghost', and the lower node 'Brown Po', it took 7 days to arrive. 】

With just half a page of footnotes that were forgotten to be erased, a not very clear thread appeared like this.

After that, Mo Tan first disclosed the key information of 'slave trade' to Futaba, who had plenty of online time and was intelligent enough, and then started the search by himself...

However, before he officially started to act, as the 'Black Fan', he encountered the unforgettable man-made disaster together with Futaba, and directly grasped the decisive connection between the Marshall family and the slave trade from the other side.

Thus, the bard 'Tan Mo' began to take Xiao Ai and Cole all the way south with a purpose.

He got two cooperators and a box in Karan City...

He made [-] gold coins backhanded with that box in Black Tower City...

But there was no trace of the Whispering Sect.

It wasn't until Mo Tan arrived in Huguang City that he finally found some clues in the small city located on the southwest edge of Hussein's territory, so he stayed there for a short while, and after a detailed investigation He found a medium-sized stronghold of the Whispering Sect. In order not to cause trouble, he found someone to deceive a group of strong men who seemed to be chasing and killing someone, and provoked a misunderstanding that was just big enough to make the stronghold empty, and then used Baitai cosplayed himself as the person in charge of Orion on the surface, sneaked in openly, and found further clues. In fact, it was a simple sentence...

[Sacred Calendar 9571/Month of Mist/Prayer 3rd, the superior node captured 124 living sacrifices again, according to the original plan, half of them will be directly provided to this node, including 40 living sacrifices and wealth equivalent to 22 high-quality living sacrifices , Extraction date...]

Among them, the word "capture" is quite charming.

Afterwards, Mo Tan, who was hunted down, continued to investigate southwards, and in the process found several small-scale strongholds hidden in towns, and concluded a rule that was not really a rule, that is, But the closer it was to the Marshall Territory, the denser the Whispering Sect's stronghold.

In the end, when he successfully arrived at Violet and got acquainted with Humbracen by accident, Motan was enough to make some guesses based on the information at hand, and after he reached a cooperative relationship with Futaba, sharing the After reading all the dossiers, it further confirmed his guess.

The Marshall family is not a partner of the Whispering Sect, but has already become a part of the Whispering Sect many years ago!
The tripartite cooperation between the Marshall family, the Viper Chamber of Commerce, and the Mysterious Order that Saka said is just an illusion, as long as the number of live sacrifices in the records of a few small strongholds is corroborated with the evidence investigated by Ned and the testimony provided by Sack, It will be discovered that the so-called mysterious sect is basically one with the Marshall family.

The so-called transaction is actually only the supplier and the middleman, and the so-called sect is completely a cover to confuse the public. Even Viper, who is a collaborator, doesn't know about this.

[-]% of the slaves are exported to the northwest and southwest through the Viper channel in exchange for money, and the remaining [-]% of the slaves are directly digested within the sect as living sacrifices. If it weren't for Ned's extremely detailed statistics of missing persons, no one would be able to learn from Sac's There was something wrong with the testimony, because the parties involved did not know how many goods were quietly seized by the Marshall family.

Even if Buffy Marshall is not a fanatic of the God of Whispering, he is definitely inseparable from the sect under his command.

It is also because of this that Tan Mo, who has a deep understanding of the power of the Whispering Sect, has always believed in Buffy Marshall's escape from prison. The whispers of those guys are enough to support a silent escape...

If the target is a sufficiently important collaborator, the Whispering Sect will definitely find a way to fish him out.

If Buffy Marshall himself is a high-ranking member of the Whispering Sect, then he might even be able to get away without any external force.

For Mo Tan, this episode is simply an impeccable prelude.

……

Game time PM19:02
The Violet Empire, the capital of Salamune, the west square of the business district

The street, which was already full of people, has been completely surrounded by the people. Vendors, civilians, students, and little nobles with no power crowded here densely. Everyone had an expression of righteous indignation on their faces. They waved their hands vigorously. Frothing in his arms, let out an inaudible cry, staring at the slightly bloated figure in the center of the square, desperately venting his indignation.

This is the first large-scale public execution held by the Violet Empire in hundreds of years. The victim is named Sac Frith, and he is an extremely evil person. He runs a lumberyard on the surface, but secretly hires Countless shady villains plundered the population throughout the empire, sold tens of thousands of innocent people as commodities, and created countless unsolved cases in the empire for decades. Marshallese and wealthy Hussein left indelible scars and committed countless heinous crimes.

Fortunately, after several years of hard work by the joint investigation team headed by the Violet Royal Family and Fire Claw Leader, the despicable mastermind behind the scenes was finally found out, and was arrested by Crystal Wolf, Baroca, and Dantis a few days ago. , Violet, Marshall and other lords organized a blitzkrieg to successfully capture them.

Justice will be served today!

"Ah……"

On the attic on the left side of the square, the petite girl sneered and clapped her hands lightly: "It's really despicable justice."

Mo Tan sat comfortably on the velvet seat, happily shaking the goblet in his hand, shaking his head and laughing: "No, to be precise, it should be cheap justice."

This is the special seat specially prepared by Xiu. In addition to Motan and Futaba, Grand Duke Baroka, Grand Duke Crystal Wolf and the second prince himself are also on the list. Enjoy the "execution" from the place with the best view. A farce in the name of.

However, apart from the two players and Xiu, the other two grand dukes seemed not interested in chatting. They just watched the judge who pronounced the crime exit with a serious face, and watched the emperor of the Violet Empire slowly stand up in front of tens of thousands of people. He swung his right hand heavily.

A stern-faced black-clothed swordsman quietly appeared amidst explosive cheers, and walked silently behind Sackfries.

"You have a minute to repent."

The cold voice rang in Sac's ear, making the ashen-faced lizardman raise his head as if he had just woken up from a dream.

【Yeah, it's about to start...】

He blinked his increasingly cloudy vertical pupils, numbly looking at the faces that wished to swallow him alive, neither joy nor sorrow in his heart.

A few seconds later, Sac laughed, especially heartily. He knew that the majestic judge had added countless unwarranted crimes to him, and he knew that even if he didn't take the blame for it, he would definitely deserve to die. , but he did not regret it.

Conscience and morality, etc., had already been fed to the dogs when he decided to join Viper.

Although he is about to reach the end of his life, for a small person like himself, this life has been wonderful enough.

I have enjoyed the wealth that those people have never enjoyed in their entire lives, so what if I get spit on a few mouthfuls?

Isn't it an honor to be able to call the curtain call on such a grand stage?

So there's nothing to regret, and for a man like Sachfries, it's not a short life that's meant enough.

Thanks to that person, he has already figured it out and learned how to ignore and even despise death.

The only regret is that I was not able to see my daughter again before I died...

Where is she now?
Does she still live at No. [-], Vanilla Street?

Does she know that the father who loves her the most is about to leave forever?

Sac didn't count his confession time, but subconsciously looked in the direction of the old city, and stared at the direction of 'home' longingly.

Even if there are dozens of properties under his name, only the place where Tatiana is is eligible to be called home.

But he saw nothing, except the fanatical faces, neither the old house nor the lively and lovely little girl.

【Hehe, I've already gone far away...】

Sac smiled bitterly from the bottom of his heart, and heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, he felt a little thankful that his daughter should have left Salamune long ago. After all, he didn't want to destroy the child's impression of him.

However, at the next moment, a familiar little face suddenly came into Sak's eyes.

Familiar big eyes, familiar light red scales, familiar pink hairpin, strange black skirt.

That's Tatiana!His Tatiana!Right in the crowd!
"Do not!!"

Sac screamed, then frantically twisted his restrained body, and let out a desperate roar: "You lied to..."

bass!
"time up."

A cold light flashed across, and Sac only felt that he was flying high, and his vision began to rotate uncontrollably.

[Why are you laughing? 】

It was his last thought before falling into darkness.

……

"Because justice has been done~"

Mo Tan drank the bright red wine in one gulp, looked at Sak's head that fell back to the ground, and laughed idiotically.
