Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 500 The transportation captain reappears

Ordinary people on the hillside can only feel the unquestionable sense of majesty coming from mid-air, and feel the fear that although they know that the other person is in front of them, they cannot see the other person.

This is the fear that comes from the unknown, from a being with great power.

Such fear is buried deep in everyone's genes. In the lives of ancient people and in the vast universe, there are too many powerful and helpless beings.

They left an indelible mark on the minds of the ancients, so people had fear.

This is a kind of stress reaction. Either you feel fear and run away quickly, or you feel fear and show your weak side and pray that the being can let you go.

At this time, more than 1 people could no longer move. How could they run away?

So they were left to kneel in reverence, or slump to the ground.

The statues in their hands or arms also slipped to the ground. At this time, these statues were so ugly and weak.

"Evil beliefs will eventually disappear!" A solemn voice said in the air: "From today on, you must believe in my name, pray on time, and offer sacrifices on time!

“Since you believe in my name, you must practice my deeds.

“You shall have no other gods before me;
“You shall not make for yourself a graven image;

“Thou shalt not take my name in vain;

“Work hard and don’t slack off;
“Honor your parents, so that you may live long on this earth;

“Thou shalt not kill;
“Thou shalt not commit adultery;
“Thou shalt not steal;
“Be honest and upright and have the courage to take responsibility;
"Don't be attached to other people's things."

The solemn voice disappeared, and soon after, the surging sense of oppression also disappeared.

The trembling people seemed to have suddenly come to their senses and shouted: "Believe in your name! Practice your deeds!"

The shouts gradually gathered together and seemed to make the withered grass tremble.

A ray of sunshine broke through the mist, dispelling the haze of this wilderness.

The thin sunlight shone on people's bodies, seeming to dissipate their dark side, and many people felt like they had been reborn.

Hobert saw that their emotions were still prone to fluctuations, and they still showed very obvious expressions of enthusiasm, hesitation, and confusion.

However, there were expressions of joy and excitement on their faces.

The effect of this "treatment" was very good.

Hobert took off his cloak, revealing a pattern inside the cloak consisting of a simple throne and an abstract symbol representing distortion: "Remember the symbol representing the 'Creator'! From today on, you will only have this one belief!" "

"The creator!"

"The creator!"

Amidst the cheers of the people, several people in the front row held Hobert's cloak with both hands as if they were holding holy objects, and then pulled the cloak away and displayed it in front of everyone.

Many people quickly bit their fingers and drew the abstract symbol on their clothes to prevent them from forgetting.

Others took out some tools such as knives and carved them on their arms to deepen their memories.

This made Hobert couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. Looking at everyone's enthusiastic expressions, why did this scene seem to be spreading the belief in an evil god?

Uh, well, for the Orthodox Church, it is indeed a belief in evil gods.

Everyone's frenzy lasted for more than half an hour, until many people's faces were obviously tired, and the administrators, at Hobert's signal, loudly drove them to work.

They were still as docile as before, working hard in the wilderness, but after these people left the hillside, a large number of demon statues were left behind.

Hobert called over the official responsible for guarding the more than 1 people. She was a nearly 30-year-old woman who looked very steady and had firm eyes.

Hobert smiled and said, "Quenna, right?"

The lady stood up straight: "Yes, sir."

"Conrad told me about you and said that he felt relieved after entrusting you with the most difficult task of guarding these madmen."

"Thank you, Commander Conrad, for your introduction, and my lordship for your promotion."

Hobert kicked away a demon statue in front of him: "I'm just telling you, work hard and don't let down Conrad's recommendation."

Before Kunna could say anything else, Hobert continued: "This batch of manpower must be fully utilized. After clearing out the grass, I will send professional engineers to assist you in your work.

“You are only responsible for transporting construction materials to the east coast, and then building a group of factories here. When the factories are built, these people will be the first batch of voluntary workers here.

“If someone is calming down, ask them if they want to go home.

“Those who are willing to go home will be handed over to the local government, and those who are unwilling to go home will be given some salary and allowed to stay and continue working.

"The salary at the beginning should not be too high. It should be maintained at one-third to one-fourth of the salary on the other side for a period of time. If they fully recover, then increase them to the normal salary."

Like Conrad, Quinna had the habit of shorthand, and she memorized the general meaning of what Hobert had just said.

After Hobert rode away with his entourage, Kunna came back to her senses: It turned out that the lord was planning to build an industrial zone in this wilderness.

Of course, we want to build an industrial zone. In Hobert's opinion, nothing will grow in this wilderness for a long time. Isn't this a good place to build an industrial zone?There is no need to worry about pollution.

In Hobert's eyes, every inch of his territory should have its value.

After controlling the mental pollution problem of more than 1 people, Hobert was in a good mood and began to outline the future of the new territory.

The bridge must be built. Not only that, but Hobert felt as if the infrastructure-mad gene in him suddenly awakened. He also planned to build a railway to connect the entire territory.

Hobert spent the whole day sketching the future. In the evening, he had an early dinner, rarely put on a hooded cloak, and then used his "travel" to come again. Eugene collar.

Only this time he came to the junction of the Eugene Territory and the Teutonic Viscount Territory.

At this time, the South Colson area was already very warm during the day, but it was still a little cold at night, and there was some fog in the mountains. It was quite magical to watch them being blown by the wind at night.

Hobert waited for a short while with his hands behind his back, and then saw a black figure walking towards him quickly.

After coming close, the other party saluted and said: "Sire!"

This man is Dennis's father, the former Grove Knight.

"Thank you for your hard work during this period." Hobert took out a potion prepared in advance: "This is the 'Barbarian' potion I promised."

When giving Elliot extraordinary characteristics before, Hobert deliberately left one copy of the "barbarian" and one copy of the "briber" extraordinary characteristics.

The former is to fulfill Grove's promise. After all, in recent times, he has perfectly completed the tasks assigned to him by Hobert.

Grove didn't hesitate and drank it in one gulp. However, because the previous potion was not digested very well, the process of taking the potion was a bit dangerous.

Fortunately, with Hobert watching over him, Grove managed to survive.

Hobert deliberately did not tell the truth: "In your current state, the most you can take is the 'savage' potion, and it will be dangerous if you go above that."

Grove said with emotion: "I finally have such an opportunity, but I didn't expect that I would... ugh..."

Hobert smiled in the darkness and said: "Your youngest son Dennis is very good. He has now been given the opportunity to become an extraordinary person. In the future, his achievements will definitely exceed that of the 'briber'."

This is an incentive, but also a warning.

Grove was slightly startled at first, then smiled and said, "The terms you agreed to me before can be given to Dennis."

"That's not the same thing." Hobert said: "In the future, Dennis is the one who wants to walk out of this mountain with me. How could he see a 'briber's' potion?"

Grove felt more reassured, which meant that Dennis really had a bright future.

"What's the latest news?"

"I just learned a few days ago that at the beginning of the year, the royal family gave Teutonic a Sequence 6 potion, hoping to use it to restrain you, Sir Alex." Grove Hui reported:
"In addition, the royal family is well-informed. After you drove away the demons, the first batch of investment in the Teutonic domain arrived, amounting to 10 gold liso. It is said that a scenic spot will be established on the west bank."

"These idiots." Hobert said: "One scenic spot is just right. Build another one and wait to lose money!"

Hobert thought for a while and said: "Try to get this project in hand. It is to build a scenic spot obviously and build a special ecological park secretly."

He explained the meaning of the ecological park to Grove, and then said: "I asked the pastor of the Church of the Mother Earth. The soil on the west coast is very suitable for growing vegetables and fruits. I want to use the 10 gold miles in this area. To avoid wasting resources.

"If you need it, you can ask the pastor of the Mother Earth Church for tips on growing vegetables and fruits."

"Yes!" Grove realized that the lord was already preparing to pick the fruit of the Teutonic Territory.

Hobert added: "Find a way to tell Teutonic and try to let him be a 'judge', which will allow him to better master extraordinary abilities.

"In addition, I will provide you with a Sequence 5 extraordinary characteristic, and you can find an opportunity to dedicate it to the Teutons."

Grove opened his mouth wide: "Sequence, Sequence 5?"

"Yes." Hobert smiled: "Let him become a 'Punishing Knight'!"

Grover really couldn't understand what Lord Hobert's purpose was?He actually wants his competitor to become a Sequence 5!

That was Sequence 5, Grove couldn't even think about it!
After the meeting with Grove, Hobert used "travel" to return to Baron Felix's lord's mansion to rest.Because a riot had just occurred, he planned to stay here for two days before going back.

Just when he was about to fall asleep, Hobert heard someone praying in the "Land of Disorder". He sighed and had no choice but to wear a quilt and enter the "Land of Disorder".

A strange star appeared in the water pool in front of the "Iron Throne". Hobert was a little strange. He didn't tell those crazy people the name of the "creator" today. How could a new star appear?

Spreading his spirituality, Hobert saw a middle-aged woman dressed as a palace maid, who was chanting his honorary name with a look of horror on her face.

Hobert was slightly startled. Was he being hypnotized or a psychological suggestion?
Looking carefully at the other party's clothing style, Hobert judged that it was the clothing of Loen's court.

This made Hobert involuntarily think of George III: Is this old man trying to test me?Or is he aware of my relationship with the "State of Disorder"?
Hobert thought about it and decided to ignore it, but for the sake of safety, Hobert brought "1-106", also known as "Fabouti's Ring", into the real world.

After putting on the ring, Hobert didn't feel any ill will towards him.

Hobert was relieved: Theoretically, even if George III became the "Black Emperor", he would not be able to find me so easily.

So Hobert entered a meditative state and fell asleep quickly.

While he was sleeping soundly, Hobert felt a burning pain in his hands. He thought he was dreaming for a while, and scratched his hands several times while half asleep, but to no avail.

Finally, Hobert woke up and found that it was "1-106" that was emitting a burning sensation.

Hobert was stunned for about a second, and he suddenly realized: Someone showed strong malice toward me!
He thought about his previous prayer again: George III really wanted to murder me.

This made him immediately enter the "Land of Disorder" and throw both the "Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord" and the "Holy Infant King" into the real world.

Then Hobert realized that this idea seemed wrong. In theory, when he killed George III's youngest son during his defection, George III was the easiest to target him.

Hobert couldn't figure it out: How did George III target me now?It was easier for Philip I to target me, after all, he still had a "Crystal of Order" in his hand.But I have no contact with George III at all!
He thought again: Even if George III was against me, he wouldn't be able to come in person, and neither would the royal angels.Because this is the Kingdom of Feneport, if Rune's angels enter Feneport, it will be equivalent to a declaration of war.

Hobert realized that he only needed to guard against the demigod masters from Loen.

As he thought, he put on his clothes, prepared the sealed artifacts and magical items, and maintained a fighting posture.

Sitting on the chair, Hobert pondered: The level 1 sealed object in my hand can...

Just as he was thinking of this, Hobert felt something spiritual, and saw that the space above the bed where he was sleeping suddenly became illusory.

This illusion is all too familiar to Hobert, it is "travel"!
Hobert suddenly stood up and made an attack gesture. Almost at the same time, a man with a pair of big ears, wearing Loen-style clothes and covering his face emerged from the illusory space.

After the big-eared man came to the real world, he immediately jumped down from the air and nailed his sword to the bed.

Hobert sighed: Fortunately, I wore "1-106" on my hand tonight, otherwise there would be no way to dodge this sword!
He also thought: Assassins should often carry out assassinations, so they are so proficient in using "travel" to appear close to the target and thrust out this sword.

When the big-eared man thrust out the sword, he saw that the target was not on the bed. When he found Hobert, it was already too late.

"Chaos!" Hobert did not use the ability of sealed objects, but used his best "Chaos!"

The big-eared man immediately fell into a state of "confusion": What did I just stab?Did you hit the target?But why does the target look like a pillow?Could it be that my assassination target this time is a pillow?
When he came to his senses, Hobert had already stabbed him in the chest.

霍伯特身上此时有两件1级封印物，分别是“1-104”和“1-106”，他感觉这已经是可以携带的1级封印物的极限。

However, these two level 1 sealed objects have no ability to directly inflict serious damage to the enemy. "1-106" can summon a magma pool of more than ten meters, but Dennis, Conrad and others live next door, or next door. The sudden lava pool will burn them all to death.

So Hobert chose the safest "physical attack".

After the big-eared man was injured, he stepped back and raised his left hand, revealing the black glove on his hand: "Imprisonment!"

At this moment, the other party's figure seemed to become extremely tall, exuding a sense of majesty that made people dare not look directly at him.

Seeing this black glove, Hobert suddenly remembered his previous experience in Backlund. At that time, he had just arrived in Feneport. He suddenly thought that he could sneak attack some Tamara families, so he went to Backlund to kill them. A person fell on his back.

At that time, he had encountered an opponent with big ears and black gloves.

Without having time to think too much, Hobert immediately poured his spirituality into "1-104": "Zoom in!"

He remembered that the opponent's glove was a level 1 sealed object, so he "enlarged" "imprisoning Hobert" into "imprisoning all the creatures in the room."

So Hobert and the enemy were simultaneously enveloped in a layer of amber-like film, unable to move even while standing there.

The big-eared man, Bennet, the leader of the Tamara family, obviously did not expect that one day he would be "imprisoned" by his own "imprisonment".

He didn't even expect that Hobert actually had a level 1 sealed object on his body!

So the life-and-death battle scene just now suddenly changed, one was "imprisoned" on the bed, and the other was "imprisoned" in front of the bed.

Hobert asked knowingly: "Who are you?"

But he was already thinking in his mind: Was the Tamara family discovering the past killing spree in Backlund?
"The person who wants your life!" Bennett said coldly: "Death!"

Hobert responded immediately: "Chaos!"

Theoretically speaking, "death" is inevitable, but that is only theoretical. The "lawyer" path is a path that specializes in exploiting loopholes in the rules.

Moreover, the "chaos" used by Hobert is the "chaos" used by "1-104", which can not only cause chaos in the distance between Bennett and Hobert, but also make Bennett's intentions fall into " confusion".

As a result, Bennett's fist swung over and scratched the tip of Hobert's nose.

It was obviously not a hit, but Bennett felt like he was.

So Bennett punched and said, "Deprive!"

He briefly "deprived" Hobert of the power to use level 1 sealed objects.

But at this moment, Hobert also had a corresponding response: "Use it!"

Because Bennett did not clarify the specific time of the "deprivation" effect, Hobert "exploited" the rules and loopholes to make the "deprivation" effect end early.

As a result, Hobert's power to use Level 1 Sealed Artifacts was deprived of him for one second. Then the "deprived" state ended, and Hobert was able to use Level 1 Sealed Artifacts again.

The two people in the room, one standing on the bed and the other standing on the floor, looked at each other. They both felt that the extraordinary abilities of the "arbitrator" path and the "lawyer" path were like a joke when used together.

One strives to establish rules, and the other strives to find loopholes in the rules that benefit himself, causing the rules to collapse.

In the end it seems to have the effect of one plus minus one.

Seeing that his raid did not achieve the intended effect, Bennett was on guard against Hobert while preparing to use "travel" to leave.

Hobert didn't mean to stop him, he just summoned the "Gate of the Underworld" before the other party left.

In an instant, the whole room became eerie and cold. Two bronze doors with complex patterns suddenly appeared. Pale palms stretched out from the cracks in the doors, and indescribable eyes peered out from the cracks in the doors. , chilling.

At the same time, the crack in the door created a huge suction force, as if it could suck people's souls into the bronze door.

The moment the "Gate to the Underworld" appeared, Bennett felt cold all over his body, especially the wound where he had just been stabbed by the black knife. It was bone-chilling.

At the same time, the space in front of Bennett became illusory, and he immediately stepped into the spiritual world.

Watching Bennett leave, Hobert terminated the call of "Gate to the Underworld", but the whole room was still freezing cold.

Hobert rubbed his hands as if on conditioned reflex, immediately entered the "Land of Disorder" and took out the "Faceless Man Necklace". He held the necklace in his right hand and the black knife in his left hand. He silently said in his heart: "Be stabbed by this knife." Hurt people.”

"..."

After reciting silently seven times, Hobert used meditation to enter a state of half sleep and half awake.

He saw a picture. Bennett, whose face could not be seen clearly, was in a Loen-style living room. A young woman, who should be his companion, was helping him clean his wounds.

The picture around the wound is the clearest. The skin has turned black and purple from the cold, with some black blood remaining outside.

The rest of the picture was very blurry, and Hobert could probably see one or two people around him.

The state of dream divination disappeared, and Hobert thought thoughtfully: The picture was not very clear, maybe because the other party had a level 1 sealed object. Fortunately, the holder of the sealed object was a Sequence 5. If it was a demigod, You may only get a blurry picture where the character's appearance is not clear at all.

Hobert thought again: the other party's injuries had already begun to show signs of onset, but if his injuries were too serious, there was a high probability that his elders or superiors would come to help him solve the problem.

So Hobert divined again: "It will be very dangerous if I chase the assassin just now."

"..."

After reciting it silently seven times, Hobert got the revelation that there was danger, but not much.

Hobert immediately made a decision: Go, maybe you can find clues about the Tamara family again.

So he immediately set up the altar and used the bestowing ceremony to bring the "Light Priest Ring" and "Ocean Pendant" to the real world.

After being fully prepared, Hobert used the "Faceless Man Necklace" to navigate and "Travel" to enter the spiritual world.

The moment he entered the spiritual world, Hobert thought to himself: If the enemy can go, I can go too!

After diving into the spiritual world and "traveling" for more than ten seconds, Hobert's spirituality told him that the living room he just saw was ahead of him.

He pulled out his knife and left the spirit world suddenly: "Gate to the underworld!"
