Don't call me evil god

Chapter 646 Mr. Key
Pete pondered for a while, and his tone relaxed a little.

"Well, maybe...Reverend Terrence, you have a point."

"You know, we come from the border. It's never too late to be too vigilant about cultists, monsters, and all kinds of things related to evil gods over there, right?"

This is Monger Manor. Pete can't take direct action, and he may not be able to win even if he does.

Instead of confronting the other party directly, it is better to take a step back and leave room for maneuver.

The gains from this trip were not small. At least it gave Pete and his friends a clear goal - the Marquis of Madison.

[Revealing the Secrets of Everything] This powerful "divine art" can strip off the opponent's underwear without making any sound or finding out what color it is. It is almost the same as cheating when investigating and gathering intelligence.

As long as you stare at the other person for a few seconds, all the information will be clear at a glance.

It is clear who is a cultist, who is a victim, and who is a normal person.

As long as we continue to trace the clue of Marquis Madison, we will most likely find those believers of the evil god hiding among the nobles in the royal capital.

"But I'm still a little curious." Pete changed the subject and asked, "Who thought of using these things that still have slight void pollution?"

“This seems to be a new thing that has appeared recently, right?”

Reverend Terence laughed.

"Of course, these are new things. To be precise, they have been in use for less than three years."

"The person who came up with this idea is far away, but it is also close at hand."

"He is the owner of this manor, Mr. Rune Monger."

"In the beginning, we also felt that the idea he described was too dangerous. The pollution of the void could easily become a big problem."

"But after Archbishop Harris Eugene and his team conducted some tests and research, they discovered that this method, though seemingly dangerous, is actually very safe."

"The consequences of contamination are completely manageable, and as long as we, the dedicated priests, are responsible for inspection and protection, the benefits of these things outweigh the risks of using them."

Pete's heart moved.

He was also affected by the [Fanatical Core], and now his thoughts were clearer, his mind was excited and his thinking was quick.

It's Rune Monger again!

It's Rune Monger again!

Ever since I came to the capital, everything that happened has been related to the richest man in the Reyak Kingdom!
Even though he has a low presence, he is not very interested in the power related to the governance of the kingdom or in becoming a powerful professional. He only seems to be keen on making more wealth for himself and enjoying it in various ways.

But if we delve deeper into the various things that happened in the royal capital.

Behind all these things, without exception, there are vague and intricate connections with the richest man!

Once or twice it may be a coincidence;

But what if it happens every time?

It was hard for Pete to believe that there were such coincidences in the world!
You're involved in every incident involving cultists.

You still say you are not a cultist? !

……

"Ladies and gentlemen."

A waiter's voice interrupted Pete's thoughts.

"Lord Monger wants to have a drink with you. Excuse me, do you have time now?"

Speak of Monger, and Monger will be here. The other party took the initiative to invite Pete, Miranda and Lancelot!
Pete put the goblet in his hand on the tray of another waiter and simply straightened the corner of his clothes: "Of course, please take us there."

They had no reason to refuse Rune Monger's invitation.

And they had also planned to find an opportunity to meet with Monger.

Now the opportunity came directly before their eyes.

There is no way Pete would let it go!

Before arriving at Monger Manor, Pete did not expect to see such a decadent scene of chaos and disorder. Their idea at that time was just to find an opportunity to tactfully reject Monger Rune's "good intentions" and try not to have too much connection with this richest man.

The devil's affairs are at most a "side quest". After all, even Raphael said that the devils in the mortal dimension dare not cause trouble in a high-profile manner, because the death of a devil there means true annihilation and no resurrection. For the shrewd and selfish devils, they will not do such a high-risk thing.

But when things began to become related to the void, evil gods and cultists, especially when traces of the Church of the Supreme Truth could be vaguely seen.

There was a subtle change in Pete's thinking.

They couldn't just fight each other in Monger Manor, which was a limitation for them.

Likewise, those evils hiding in the dark have to abide by this restriction.

This allowed them to safely investigate Rune Monge's true strength.

This is the opposite of what happened in Stone Castle.

At that time, the cultists of the Church of the Supreme Truth could already carry out things like conversion and sacrifice with impunity, relying on the fact that they had infiltrated the nine major clans, and they did not even bother to conceal many things.

Then the followers of Nowen can also use equally violent means and kill them all directly through hunting, raiding, and encirclement.

Anyway, there is plenty of evidence at their ceremony site, so there is as much as you want, and there is no need to worry about killing the wrong target.

The capital city of Starosh is more like a hunter game in a dark forest.

Everyone is a hunter with a gun.

The hunter who is discovered first will be killed.

The cultists here are hiding deeper, and their "handles" are not exposed in the open like in the Stone Fortress. On the contrary, they are very secretive.

They were so hidden that Pete and his companions couldn't figure out how to expose them.

Get the upper hand and kill them first?
The opponent's strength is stronger than Pete and the others.

If Rune Monge is really related to the cultists, then the power he can mobilize would be even more exaggerated. Being rich enough to rival a country is no joke.

Without sufficient evidence to prove the other party's belief in evil gods and without evidence to nail the other party to the stake, a battle is like firing a shot aimlessly in the hunter game.

That would only expose your position and put yourself in an unclear situation.

The believers of evil gods can use this as an opportunity to throw dirty water on Pete and his gang and frame them.

In this dangerous hunter game.

What Pate and his team can do now is to use an open identity to inquire and collect more information, and find key evidence from this information that can be used to kill the other party.

At the same time, try to conceal your true purpose as much as possible and don't let the other party discover the problem before you.

Want to do this.

A close encounter with Rune Monger is an essential step!
