Necromancers are frantically stationing troops in the apocalypse.

Chapter 955, Weird Game
The religious leader stared at him intently, and said through gritted teeth, "Do you think you can make the Church bow down by threatening me?"

"It's not a threat, it's a fact!" Wu Heng continued to say to the other two: "I know the two leaders want to resolve the conflict, but things have developed to the point where there is basically no way to resolve it. If I let him go, I will only wait for the next revenge."

The association arranged two leaders to come here to resolve the conflict between the two parties.

But the second Pope died in his own hands. If Philippa had been doing well, the fleet around the Emerald Sea should have sunk.

Letting the religious leader go back is like letting a tiger return to the mountain.

He will come again next time.

"Saiyidu, can you guarantee that after you return, you will not bear a grudge about this incident and think of revenge on Treasure Island and Wu Heng?" the elf leader asked directly.

The religious leader's chest heaved violently as he made this assurance.

It's like a loser begging the other party to let him go.

He was a leader, a religious leader looked up to by all the people, yet he had to make promises to the pagans….

I feel unwilling.

But if the two opposing leaders don't care about this matter, he won't be able to defeat Wu Heng.

He took several deep breaths and said in a deep voice, "I can guarantee..."

"I don't believe it!" Wu Heng answered quickly.

The religious leader's eyes widened and his face instantly turned red.

The semi-transparent "host" at the side spoke again in a deep voice, [The despicable trick of poisoned wine could not fool the battle-hardened adventurer team, and they started a fierce battle with the villains in the tavern.]

[Strength 45, can be immune to damage. ]

[Ahaha! The elf in the team was once again dragged down by his thin arms and was stuffed into the beer bucket by the thugs.]

Bang~!

A dull sound was heard, and the elf leader died again because his strength did not meet the requirements.

But soon, he sat up again.

The hero brought him back to life again.

The elf leader sat in his seat, his eyes filled with suppressed anger.

Wu Heng and his two friends' problems were troublesome enough already, and now they had to participate in this boring game and die again and again.

[After a fierce battle with swords and sabers, the group of bastards were finally laid to rest on the ground.]

The narrator lowered his voice, [While searching for loot, someone noticed a secret letter with the words 'Pioneering Team Route' hidden in the bartender's wrinkled shirt.]

[While you were resting and feasting, one of our friends who was very interested in corpses was stuffing the hag's still twitching heart into his backpack.]

The other three looked at Wu Heng in unison.

Even though he was the narrator of the game, when he heard someone was interested in corpses, the first person he thought of was him, the necromancer.

"Professional prejudice! I have no interest in corpses." Wu Heng said.

The dwarf leader nodded in approval.

The host continued, [The dice of fate began to roll... 】

The dice on the table began to spin.

At this time, the dice did not stop 5.
[The brave men, who had eaten and drunk their fill, pushed open the creaking door of the store, and suddenly! ]

【A voice came from the scarecrow at the entrance of the village. 】

Imitating the scarecrow's shrill voice, [Adventurers, my good friends, let's make a deal~! ]

[The straw man wants the witch's heart and is willing to exchange it for a gold ring.]

[As the heart was buried in the hay, the straw man disappeared with a creepy laugh.]

[Gold ring +1, development order with fingerprints +1. ]

The narrator's voice became serious, [Now, the adventurer is faced with a choice.]

[Continue to follow the original goal, or take the suspicious gift to Lujiao City? ]

【Please make your choice...】

The narrator finished speaking and fell silent.

Wu Heng frowned and looked at the dwarf.

The latter explained, “Sometimes, there are indeed options to make a choice, just pick any one.”

Then he said directly to the 'host': "Go back the way you came!"

They are not really here to play games, and too much plot will interfere with their conversation.

If the issue between Wu Heng and the religious leader cannot be resolved, the situation will only become more troublesome.

The host spoke, [The experienced adventurers smiled at each other, who would be fooled by the scarecrow? They chose the original route and continued their adventure! ]

The little man on the chessboard started moving again, moving forward along the route drawn by the red dot.

The four of them returned to the previous topic.

The elf leader looked at Wu Heng and said in a deep voice: "Wu Heng, the association has intervened in this matter, so it is impossible for us to kill Saidu."

"Let us take him back first. We will then investigate the matter thoroughly and give you an accurate answer, just like the last time the Vatican framed Treasure Island."

The religious leader snorted.

Wu Heng shook his head. "No! If the association really had such great power, the Holy See would not dare to send troops privately and let him go back. I doubt what the association can do."

The Elf leader then said, "I promised you that you would give Treasure Island some compensation. Tell me what you want?"

"We are the ones who suffer the greatest losses," the religious leader said angrily.

The Vatican suffered such a huge loss and will have to pay compensation later.

Who can argue with this?

The dwarf reminded, "Saidu, calm down. You are quite old and not as steady as Wu Heng. The rest of the matters will be dealt with when you return to the association and then hold the leaders' meeting."

The religious leader stopped talking, and Wu Heng looked at the people present with narrowed eyes.

He also realized one thing in his heart. Under the current circumstances, it would be difficult for him to kill Saidu.

If he was too radical, he would probably push the two opponents to the side of the Holy See. Then, when the three heroes joined forces, he would be in even greater trouble.

Then, the idea of ​​bribing the two men, just to stop them from taking action, flashed through his mind.

Compared with combat power, Treasure Island has useful wealth, potions and methods to improve reputation.

But as soon as this thought came up, it was quickly rejected.

The four of them were forced to play the game on the chessboard, but people outside could still see and hear what was happening here.

With so many people in the association watching, the other party would definitely not agree to my blatant bribery.

Wu Heng suddenly wanted to discuss something with his ghost military advisor, but he was isolated outside and could not communicate.

It seems that we have to find another way and kill the religious leader.

Or you can throw another missile at him, but the missile still can't kill him, so you need a hero to finish him off.

"What do you think? Don't you believe in the association's promise?" the elf leader reminded again.

Wu Heng raised his head again and looked at the other person. "The ransom for a hero should be quite high, right?"

I heard the word ransom.

The religious leader almost choked out his breath again and his face turned purple.

The elf leader said directly: "Two first-level merits, 50 gold coins. The association will help you check and they will be delivered to you smoothly." The first-level merit represents a rare item or a skill book.

Besides, 50 gold is indeed not a small amount.

It feels like I could buy a kingdom.

Wu Heng raised the price directly, "I accept the 50 gold coins, but I want 5 first-level merits. The Church is not allowed to build churches around the Emerald Sea and in the territory I manage. I must also be allowed to use the information of the Hongwen Society and the Secret Whisperers at any time."

The eyes of the other three narrowed instantly.

The conditions seemed to have been thought out in advance. It actually mentioned that churches were not allowed to be built around the Emerald Sea, and also mentioned the data permissions of the Hongwen Society and the Secret Whisperers.

"I can promise you five first-level merits. The information of the Hongwen Society and the Whisperer will be decided at a meeting of leaders." The elf leader hesitated for a moment and continued, "This matter can be discussed separately. You write an application and then we will hold a meeting of leaders to decide."

All the general information of Hongwen Society has been sent to Treasure Island.

What Wu Heng wanted was some information that was not made public.

"Okay! What about not allowing the construction of churches?" Wu Heng continued to ask.

The elf leader looked at the religious leader and said, "This is a matter for the Holy See. Do you agree?"

"Humph! Promise!"

"Let's settle this matter now." The elf leader said directly, with a relaxed look on his face.

The host standing aside looked at the few people.

At this time, he spoke again, [When the iron fence of the orphanage appeared in the twilight, the silver bell-like playful sounds seemed particularly harsh among the rose bushes.]

[The church's symbol casts a spider-web-like shadow at dusk.]

Several people looked at the chessboard.

The little figures representing the identities of the four people have already traveled a long distance to reach the destination.

It sounds like this is an orphanage.

It probably means an orphanage.

Moreover, the description mentions the church.

Wu Heng glanced at the translucent 'host' on the side with a suspicious look.

[The headmaster stands behind the door with a cane, looking you up and down with cloudy eyes.]

[He recognized the identity of the priest in the team, and after confirming that you were not bandits with sticks, he warmly welcomed you.]

[While leading you into the orphanage, he explained that there were demons nearby and that you had to be careful.]

[The long table was soon filled with hot stew and fresh bread. ]

[After a hearty meal, the director and the team priests stayed.] The narrator's voice suddenly became serious, imitating the old man's voice and saying, [Did your team member make some kind of deal with the devil? Perhaps you have to kill him tonight before he is completely bewitched.]

The three looked at the religious leader, who also frowned.

"Devil's deal? You mean the heart for the ring?" the dwarf leader continued to ask, "You didn't say who did the exchange."

"It should be referring to Wu Heng and the heart he dug out." said the elf leader.

Wu Heng also frowned, feeling that the game was a little different.

Then, he looked towards the dwarf leader, wondering if this strange object had any special effects. What he said before about there being no danger was just deceiving himself.

The dwarf leader said, "Does this mean that Wu Heng in the game has reached a deal with the straw demon invisibly?"

"Let's see what the narrator says."

All effective information appears through narration.

They had no way of really exploring the intelligence inside.

Another point is that no one paid attention to what the game said before, and everyone was arguing about Wu Heng and Sai Yidu.

After a brief pause, the host spoke again.

[The priest's intelligence was judged to be insufficient for the immunity.]

Wu Heng and his companions looked at the religious leader again.

The intelligence was not up to standard, which meant that the priest in the game believed what the director said.

The story continues next to them. [The three adventurers return to the dormitory first, and the sound of children laughing can be heard from next door.]

[Dangdangdang~! There was a knocking sound from the window frame, and the anthropologist found a jet-black crow standing on the window frame, holding a yellowed parchment in its beak.]

Anthropologist?
Several people immediately realized that they were talking about Wu Heng.

The priest's profession was determined, and the remaining two were an elf and a dwarf. According to the 'host', Wu Heng was an anthropologist who liked to study corpses.

[The curious scholar opened the window and took the letter to check it out. It said, "Be careful of the director. He is a believer of the devil and has killed a team of pioneers."]

[The bell rang, and the laughter of the children next door suddenly became synchronized. ]

[The human scholar's charm was judged, and the exemption effect was not achieved. ]

Charm didn't pass either.

Wu Heng frowned instantly. Compared with the important attributes such as intelligence, strength and physique, charm was indeed a bit low.

Now people on both sides have received different tasks.

"What do you mean? The director is the one who betrayed the pioneer route?" the dwarf asked in a deep voice.

Wu Heng sorted out the clues and said, "When we were in the tavern, we got a secret letter about the pioneers' route. In other words, the whereabouts of the pioneers were leaked in advance. When we exchanged hearts with the scarecrow, we also received a blood-stained pioneer certificate, which also proved that the team was dead."

"Who sent the crow? The Scarecrow?" the dwarf continued to ask.

"It's possible. It could also be other people nearby." Wu Heng replied.

The religious leader sneered and said, "This is a church building. It is impossible for the director to be a devil's believer as written in the letter. It is more likely that some kind of transaction was inadvertently completed when the heart was exchanged as the director said."

"If that's all, then there's no need for the clues left before. Have you ever played games?" Wu Heng asked back.

"Have you ever seen a demon in the church? It is more accurate to say that a scholar who likes corpses is bewitched by a demon." The religious leader raised his voice.

On the side, the translucent host watched the two people arguing with a smile.

Then keep talking.

[The door of the dormitory was pushed open, and the figure of the priest walked against the flickering firelight in the corridor, holding the ogre stick you had seized together.]

[He spoke in a firm tone, revealing the news that the human scholar had been bewitched by the devil.]

[The scholar took out a parchment and showed the text that the director was a devil believer.]

[You had a disagreement, while the upright dwarf and the thin-armed elf stood aside at a loss.]

[Please select your team for the remaining players. The battle will begin in three minutes. ]

[Battle judgment, strength! ]

【The timer starts...】

Everyone frowned.

The dwarf said, "Why is it different from usual? It's so complicated this time."

Wu Heng and the elf leader looked solemn.

The two looked at each other, and after confirming, their expressions became even uglier.

Wu Heng said: "The game mechanism can't kill us, so are the characters in the game considered heroes..."

"I mean, heroes can kill heroes. Will that be reflected in the game?"
