"Will, you don't need to participate in this operation. I have a more important task for you." Morgan ordered Will with a serious expression.

"Yes, I will definitely live up to your trust!" After Will expressed his determination, he immediately leaned over to listen to Morgan's instructions.

As Morgan whispered, the expression on Will's face kept changing.

First he was filled with shock, then he was confused, and finally he seemed to have thought of something and looked at the old man in front of him with complicated eyes.

Morgan saw this and knew that Will might have guessed his thoughts, so he smiled with relief:
"I knew that Kro, a guy who only cares about profit and family inheritance, would not be so loyal."

"Even if your father died to protect him, he would not raise a worthless person. At most, he would let you live a rich life."

"And he chose you to be the squad leader, which proves that you must have some good qualities, such as a fairly smart mind."

"It's a pity that you didn't use your intelligence properly, but wasted it all on women. It seems that your father's death has had a great impact on you."

Will remained silent, obviously not wanting to talk about it.

Morgan did not continue to speak, but just shook his head and said:
"Forget it, it doesn't matter. I won't take care of Kro's men for him. As long as you can complete the task I assign to you, that's all."

"You should be able to guess the reward for the mission. It's enough to compensate for the injustice you just suffered."

"I..." Will moved his lips and was about to say something else, but Morgan interrupted him:
"Okay, go ahead and leave me alone here."

Upon hearing this, Will could only swallow back his unfinished words and bowed to Morgan.

"As ordered, I will retire."

After saying that, Will looked at Morgan deeply, then turned and left.

In the huge underground secret room, Morgan was the only one sitting at the table.

He rested his elbows on the cool tabletop, interlaced his fingers into a lotus shape, and gently lifted his chin.

The flickering candlelight flowed along the knuckles, illuminating a face full of vicissitudes.

“I hope my choice is the right one this time.”

A low voice sounded in the secret room and then gradually dissipated.
-
After Zane and Sarco left the secret room, they quickly gathered their subordinates and rushed to the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce.

Instead of entering the headquarters, they hid outside the headquarters, waiting for Ryan's arrival.

Not long after, Ryan rode Dragonite to the door of the Chamber of Commerce headquarters, followed by the indigenous troops and players who wanted to watch the plot.

Players all know that the Merchants Association is doomed and the war is about to end.

According to the usual plot of previous games, at this time either a final BOSS will pop up or they will be shown a cutscene.

No matter which possibility it was, they didn't want to miss it, so they followed Ryan.

"Yanzi, do you think there will be a final BOSS?" Xu Ruofeng asked Chen Yan curiously.

While Chen Yan was sorting out and counting the remaining props, he responded casually:

"What? Have you forgotten so quickly how Connor abused us?"

"If the other players hadn't come to our aid quickly enough, we would all have died at Connor's hands."

"Just one Connor caused us players to suffer heavy losses. We can't defeat the final boss even if there is one."

"You should have also seen Lord Ryan's worshiper Junsha and the tyrant beside him. Their target was most likely Lord Ryan, but they were defeated by him."

"If not for this, these few worshippers alone would be enough to give us a hard time. You must have seen the news in the group chat. Those unlucky players were killed the moment they showed up. This shows how powerful Junsha and the others are."

"They are not the final boss. If there is a final boss, he must be very powerful. I'm afraid we are not even qualified to be a slacker."

"So don't think about defeating the boss anymore. We have gained enough merits. What else are you dissatisfied with?"

Xu Ruofeng said with a tangled expression: "The merits we obtained are not low, but the performances of other players are not bad either."

"Brother Mu's brick-moving team killed the squad leader named Snake, and Patrick also found Squad Leader Weiss with the help of Brother Crow."

"These are two big fish, their merits are definitely not low!"

"As for Brother Dao and the others who occupied the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce and may have directly captured the two presidents, I won't say much about them."

"They have been undercover in the Chamber of Commerce for so long, so it is normal for them to have higher merits."

"Look at us. Although we encountered Connor and his group, other players also participated in this battle. They will definitely take away a lot of merits, so we will not get much merits."

"Besides that, we only captured a few team leaders. So, our merit ranking may not even be in the top ten! Do you know what this means?!"

Chen Yan asked cooperatively, "What does it mean?"

"It means that I will lose the chance to be knighted and continue to be a commoner!" Xu Ruofeng replied with a depressed look on his face.

Chen Yan said calmly: "What's wrong with being a commoner? Aren't we commoners in real life too? Oh, right, I almost forgot that you are a rich second generation."

He patted Xu Ruofeng on the shoulder and deliberately joked, "Master, do you feel that your identity in the game doesn't match reality?"

Xu Ruofeng suddenly raised his shoulders, shook off Chen Yan's hand, then curled his lips and said:

"Don't you know me yet? If I cared about my status, would I still play with you?"

"Tsk, even though you're telling the truth, why does it sound so unpleasant to me?"

"That's the truth. I don't really want the knighthood, I just don't want to..."

"You just don't want to be ridiculed by me, right, this civilian?"

I don't know when the multi-grain rice crust came over, with a cheesy smile on his face.

"Get out!" Xu Ruofeng suddenly became angry and pushed the mixed grain rice crust away.

The mixed grain rice crust staggered after being pushed by Xu Ruofeng, but he was not angry. He just put away his smile and said seriously:

"How dare you! How dare you offend a noble knight! I will punish you severely!"

"Unless you call me dad~"

Xu Ruofeng drew his sword expressionlessly and said, "I'm sorry, there are no nobles in Xinxia. I will get rid of this evil for the people right now!"

"Don't be impulsive. If you don't want to call me, then don't call me. You can just give Technician No. 8 to me!"

"Prepare to die! You are a scum who even spared a technician with such a pitiful background!"

Looking at the two people fighting and playing, Chen Yan sighed helplessly.

"Why are you sighing again? I thought you were used to it." Old Ye said with a smile.

Chen Yan shook his head: "I can't help it. Every time I see them, I feel tired and want to sigh subconsciously."

"Forget it, let's not talk about them. Let's prepare for the plot. This war should be over soon." Old Ye nodded slightly, then touched his chin and said:

"Maybe I'm being a little hypocritical. I always feel that if this war ends like this, it will be a bit anticlimactic."

Chen Yan shrugged: "A real war is like this. Fierce fighting will only break out at the beginning of the war."

"Now that the Chamber of Commerce has lost its ability to resist, the war will naturally become easier."

"This game simulates reality 100%, so it won't be like a normal game where there's another burst at the end. That doesn't make sense."

Old Ye raised his eyebrows slightly: "Really? Your words sound a bit like setting a flag!"

"Don't worry, I never stand up."

"Everyone on alert!"

Before Chen Yan could finish his words, he heard the shouts of Noz and others.

He immediately raised his head and looked forward, only to see that Noz and the others were all in a fighting stance, obviously having received instructions from Ryan.

"Tsk tsk tsk, old general with flags behind him, stop being dazed and get ready for battle." Old Ye teased with a smile on his face.

The corners of Chen Yan's mouth twitched slightly, and then he said with his last stubbornness:

"No need. Even if the Chamber of Commerce is still struggling, Lord Ryan can easily solve it. It's just that the content of the plot animation has changed."

Old Ye nodded when he heard this and took back the Poké Ball in his hand: "That's true, then I will watch this plot animation with the old general."

Chen Yan: "."

While the two were talking, Ryan's troops were all ready for battle, but the enemy did not show up.

After a while, Ryan seemed a little impatient, looking down at the dark part of the street and said:

"A bunch of useless people hiding their heads and showing their tails. It seems that Morgan has no other choice but to pin his hopes on you."

"Aren't you going to be my enemy? Why don't you get out of here right now!"

"I have a celebration party tonight and I don't have time to waste with you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a figure in a black robe walked out from the darkness of the street.

Sarco took off his hood, grinned and shouted at Ryan: "You are so arrogant even though you haven't even grown all your hair yet!"

"With our Shadow Church here, don't even think about having a celebration banquet. I will use your blood to please the Demon Lord!"

Ryan looked at Sarko in a black robe and the many black-robed men following him, and his expression was not surprised but happy.

Oh, there’s an unexpected gain!
He had been searching for the Shadow Church for such a long time but couldn't find it, but he didn't expect these bastards to jump out on their own initiative!
It's really hard to find anything without wearing iron shoes, and it takes no effort at all!

Just as Ryan was trying to control the corners of his mouth that were about to rise, Sarko turned his head and shouted in the direction of another street:

“Zain, what are you talking about? People have discovered us!”

"Shut up! You idiot!"

A burst of angry shouting came from the street entrance, followed by Bishop Zane, wearing a white robe with blue patterns, and behind him were the guardian knights of the Temple of Poseidon.

Zain first glared at Sarko fiercely, then saluted Ryan and said:
"Hello, Lord Viscount. I am Zain, the bishop of the Guanhai City branch of the Sea God Temple. I am very happy to meet you."

"Poseidon Temple? Interesting!"

Ryan could no longer suppress the smile on his face, and his smile became particularly bright.

He was originally considering how to deal with the Guanhai City branch temple so that Aisha could legitimately move into Guanhai City, when Bishop Zane brought him the reason.

The Shadow Church plus the Sea Temple, this is really a double blessing!
At this moment, Ryan wanted to say thank you to Morgan. It was so polite of him to give him double the gift!
Seeing the smile on Ryan's face, Zane also showed a bitter smile on his face, and at the same time cursed Sarko and Morgan in his heart.

There is no need to say much about this brainless idiot Sarko. Their original plan was to ambush Ryan in secret and catch him off guard.

As a result, Ryan tricked Sarko out with just two sentences, and exposed himself in the process.

If Sarkozy is just stupid, then this old guy Morgan is full of evil intentions!

In order to lure them into cooperation, he actually lied to them and told them that Ryan's strength had been greatly weakened.

I'll weaken your grandma's legs! Do you really think I'm blind?

Not to mention the powerful Dragonite under Ryan, even the high-level fighters beside him are not easy to deal with.

The most important thing is that he also saw the figures of Telt and others. These priests followed Ryan obediently and seemed to have changed their allegiance.

No, it seems that the priests sent by your Chamber of Commerce not only did not weaken Ryan's strength, but strengthened it, right?

Then why are we fighting? Isn't this just giving away our heads?

To be honest, when Zane saw Ryan and his troops with his own eyes, he immediately began to think of retreating.

In the face of death, the dream of establishing a diocese and becoming a blue cardinal was abandoned in an instant.

Although Ryan was at risk of being purged by the top leaders of the Sea Temple after he occupied Guanhai City, he could only delay it for a while.

At worst, he can just run away to the sea with the money he has embezzled over the years.

No matter how long the tentacles of the Temple of Poseidon extend, it is impossible for it to reach every island.

So Zane originally planned to let that idiot Sarko attract Ryan's attention so that he could slip away quietly. But who would have thought that Sarko would call him out!
Since Ryan heard his name, he had no choice but to come out, while desperately thinking of how to deal with the situation.

However, Ryan did not give him time to think and spoke again:
"If I remember correctly, the Sea God Temple cannot interfere in the noble war. Violators will be dealt with by the nobles themselves, or handed over to the Punishment Knights of the Divine Punishment Knights."

“Bishop Zane, I guess I’m right, right?”

Upon hearing this, Zain quickly explained, “That’s right, but I don’t intend to participate in the war between you and Guanhai City, nor do I intend to be your enemy.”

"I just want to try to mediate the war between you. After all, we are all subjects of Lord Poseidon. The merciful Lord certainly doesn't want to see us killing each other!"

After hearing this, before Ryan could react, Sarko became unhappy.

"Huh? What do you mean? Didn't we agree to work together to defeat Ryan? Are you going to break the agreement?"

"No! You don't want the slums. I still want to hold the sacrificial ceremony. I can feel that the Demon Lord is watching me. I absolutely cannot let Him down!"

Zane: “.”

He regrets it now, very much!
He just knew that Sarco was a fool, but he didn't expect Sarco to be so stupid that he couldn't even see the basic difference in strength.

This guy probably sacrificed his brain as well! (End of this chapter)
