Sir, this is not how bad women are used.

If the danger of this mysterious city-state is estimated based on the intensity of the Ruins Square, then the adventurers are in great danger. If they go in as a group, without the help of Chu Yan and others, they will probably lose half of their members.

Adventurers are now a difficult-to-renew resource.

In the last one or two years, it is impossible for a group of adult adventurers with combat experience to emerge.

"I don't think so. The conditions I negotiated with the church at the beginning were that after discovering the 'door', my fellow tabooists and I would go together to deal with the gatekeeper."

Chu Yan brought up this matter after a long time.

The participants felt as if they were in a daze, and apparently they had all forgotten about this matter.

According to the initial negotiation content, Chu Yan arrived at the Babel Tower city area. After confirming the location of the "gate", he immediately served as a spearhead team to eliminate the gatekeeper.

Take on this suicide mission in exchange for a foothold outside for the Taboo.

But looking back now, this negotiation is for reference only.

Chu Yan, who was at a disadvantage in the negotiations at that time, now seems a little unfathomable, and it seems that he no longer needs to look at the face of the church.

I used to be timid, but now I can strike hard!

This delay time basically became his development time, but even if the Pope came in person, he could not say that he was slacking off.

How can we carry out the negotiations if we can’t even find the “door”?

After Chu Yan "ruled" the Babel Tower city area, he has been doing what the church should do - promoting the progress of exploration.

It can also be said that he is helping the church clean up its mess, not just slacking off.

Josephine suddenly said, "As for the plan to explore that city-state, I have a plan. The adventurers won't go, and Chu Yan won't go either. We will just let the imperial army explore it."

Theresa was puzzled and asked, "Why? I don't think the Central Archdiocese would agree to this kind of behavior of missing the opportunity. They might directly send the Holy Knights to explore."

"Then let them send it!" Josephine's tone was not too excited, but her attitude had become tough.

The point is not about missing the opportunity. She just doesn't want Chu Yan to take risks again. Even if he has to take risks, he should at least wait until others have figured out the "risk" before dealing with it.

That time at the Ruins Square, it was Chu Yan's side that seemed to be the most anxious, but in fact, Evelyn and Josephine at the square were equally distressed, and every second was torture.

They want to help but can't!

President Zhilan seemed to have figured something out and said:

"I understand. The church has already stepped on a landmine and lost an S-class, but the empire was unaware of this. They could not foresee the severity of this danger.

The Church can stay put and let the Empire wade into the muddy waters first, so that they can suffer most of their losses. Then we can go in prepared and reduce the losses!"

"What if the Empire relies on numbers and casualties to overcome the danger inside, and the 'Imperial Blockade' happens again, blocking the entrance to the New World? What should we do then?"

Theresa asked this, she didn't want Chu Yan to take risks, but judging from the empire's style of doing things, they did have such a plan.

If the empire had not been unable to crush the alliance of other forces, it would have become even more tyrannical and arrogant.

Josephine's thoughts were very clear, and she said calmly:

"Is it easier to deal with the angels or the blockade set up by the Empire? If the Empire really has this kind of strength, then they should let them endure the baptism of the angels first. When they suffer casualties, we will have a chance to respond."

The captain of the Zhilan Club Monthly Fee Group 69493613 nodded slightly and couldn't help but agree.

Yes, if the empire's foundation is strong enough that after defeating the gatekeeper, it still has sufficient combat power to set up a blockade, then it should strike back and give up the "initiative" on its own initiative.

She confirmed: "Then our current policy is... to allow the Empire to explore there, and we wait and see what happens, while the adventurers continue to explore elsewhere?"

Josephine nodded: "That's what I mean."

Theresa would naturally agree, and she might give some suggestions, but when Josephine had made up her mind, Theresa would stand with her.

Chu Yan shrugged. It didn't matter what he said anymore.

At present, he has no room to express his position. Even if he sings a different tune, it will be of no avail. One vote cannot refute the majority of votes.

But the overall result was still beyond his expectations. He thought he was going to show off his skills.

I didn't expect the result would be to do nothing.

It's acceptable. The worst that can happen is that he will continue to grow, which is in line with his goal.

"That's all for today. I have to send Isis back. But there is one thing I'm curious about. What if the church leaders get sick again and insist on fighting with the empire? What should we do then?"

Even though the bishops had lost a number of powerful confidants in the Ruins Square last time, there was still a great possibility that they would send people to explore there again and confront the empire head-on.

Didn't the bishops learn their lesson?

Yes, there must have been a lesson learned, but the lesson is: don't send your precious combat forces anymore, just send clergy such as the Holy Knights.

Summon the Clergy

651

When they do things, they will only be seen as a manifestation of their power. When those clergy die, they die, and it doesn't matter.

Moreover, confidants are one's own private fighting force, but clergy are public!

If you don't use public resources, it is a waste of your power, which is shameful.

If he doesn't use it, it means that other bishops will use it for nothing. Other bishops will take advantage of the power, which is more painful than some bishops who suffer losses themselves.

From the information provided by Princess Melissa, we can know that the current top leadership of the church is in great chaos.

After Gospel Pope Nemogebi came to power, his measures caused the power that originally belonged to the core of the church to flow into the hands of a group of stupid kingdom nobles.

The church’s folly is predictable and unavoidable.

The Empire is the answer to the current era!

Josephine had thought about the question raised by Chu Yan, and she had a solution. She said:

"I will stop the bishop from issuing orders here, unless they lead the team themselves, or have their powerful confidants come again to deliver the troops."

If the bishops dare to come in person, then if anything unexpected happens, they will have no control over it.

Chu Yan stood up and before leaving, he remembered that his aunt, the commander, was missing and he hadn't seen her for a while.

"By the way, Commander De Luoya... hasn't she come back yet? It takes so long to report on her duties!"

Theresa has contacted De Luoya in the past few days and said helplessly:

"She will be back in the Babel District this week, but judging by the current situation, it seems she will have to go back to report again in a few days. It would be better to have the Discipline Pope come in person~"

*

Chu Yan walked out of the Adventurer's Guild. Aisis was obviously impatient. After learning that the "great existence" would not appear in the guild building, her only thought was to go back quickly.

Chu Yan looked at her anxiously, and thought of his polite refusal of "surely next time", and couldn't help feeling melancholy.

Isis is too straightforward to hear a polite refusal, and she will probably really think so next time.

This... Is there really a way to let Isis see the Cursed Witch as well?

Can we ask Sister Ye Na's fellow disciples to come up with another contract of faith...Oh, they were all killed by Sister Ye Na.

That's fine.

I don't know if those contracts of faith are archived in the Sanctuary of Discipline.

Just as Chu Yan was lost in his thoughts, a few subtle calls drew his attention back.

"My lord, look here!"

Following the sound, Chu Yan found a person with green hair speaking?

It turned out to be the little green-haired Gryn.

My god, this guy squatted in the bushes next to him, and his hair blended into the green leaves, making the hiding effect amazing!

Little Green Hair has become much more mature in his work. Although no one knows why he is so secretive, there is a stone bench in the square next to his hiding place.

——This meant that Chu Yan sat on the stool, while Ge Ruien continued to hide in the bushes and make the connection secretly.

I have to say, it's very thoughtful.

It is hard to imagine that this is the little green-haired boy who had been cheated of both his feelings and his wallet by women one after another.

After Chu Yan and Aisis sat down, they heard Groen's stealthy movements from the bushes next to them.

"Sir, I and an insignificant passerby stole some timing and successfully obtained a partial map of the mysterious city-state. We found the locations of several monsters, but we didn't dare to go too deep and couldn't get a complete street map of the city-state."

As he spoke, several projected magic stones flew out from the bushes and fell into Chu Yan's hands.

Chu Yan was somewhat shocked in his heart. Although he had no intention of going to that city-state to cause trouble, he did not expect that the little green-haired boy would be so bold and took the opportunity to touch part of the projection of the map!

All the words of thanks were pale, and Chu Yan threw a bag of gold coins in as a reward.

"This is the reward you deserve, but I want to ask, why did you squat in the bushes to hand over information? Were you being chased by someone?"

"No, it just makes my professionalism more prominent."

"..."

You're being a bit too professional.

Chapter 207 Monsters in the Mysterious City

Chu Yan asked the little green-haired boy what motivated him to take such risks. Even adventurers chose to act cautiously, but this boy actually broke in with others to search for the map?

The response of the little green-haired boy was basically to meet the needs of the customers. He had been doing nothing for a while and now he had to give it a try. He also thought that Chu Yan might be interested in the stamp and signature of that area, so he forced it to come.

As for the map area that Little Green Hair currently controls, he has occupied almost all the areas that are easiest to explore, leaving only areas where enemy activities are frequent.

Even if other adventurers break in to explore later, they will definitely not be as good as Chu Yan's people, as they can only start from dangerous areas.

"That's roughly the reason. However, this part of the map was explored in collaboration with the adventurer riding a chicken. I'll have to give the stamp to him, and the signature can be left to you, sir. If you want to take the stamp as well...

I can go and negotiate the terms for you."

No, what magic does this shit green hairstyle have? How come it changes you completely? Are you so career-oriented now?

Chu Yan was amazed in his heart, it was true that after dyeing his hair for three days, he looked much better. He was no longer the unlucky guy whose wallet was frequently emptied by women.

As for the issue of the ranking list signature,

652

Forget it.

This list was originally proposed by him and it would be a bit boring to put his own name on it.

"No, this is the result of your joint exploration with your companions. You can negotiate the signature yourself. You can use the signature as your own advertising space to advertise your intelligence business.

I will go back tonight and take a look at the contents of the Philosopher's Stone, and you can take it and deliver it to the Guild tomorrow."

There seemed to be nothing else to talk about, so before leaving, Chu Yan exchanged a few pleasantries and asked about the little green-haired boy's recent situation.

"I haven't heard much about you recently. How are you doing? Are you still spending money at the entertainment center?"

"Not really, sir. I've been training my concentration lately."

"......Concentration?!" Chu Yan was secretly shocked.

This little green-haired boy has really been possessed by evil spirits. He no longer wants to go to low-cost entertainment venues to cultivate his sentiments, but instead goes into sage mode, abstaining from alcohol and women?

I can’t develop concentration!

The bushes shook slightly, shaking off a few leaves. That was Groen nodding. He said with a firm will:

"Yes, recently another woman wants to trap me. I am training my willpower to only let her cheat on my feelings and never let her cheat on my wallet!"

Have you given up low consumption and chosen to just glance around?

"Okay, then you continue training. I'll go back and check on the situation in the Philosopher's Stone."

*

Chu Yan brought Aisis back to the nest, and the necromancer lady rushed back to her room immediately, as if she had missed too many study opportunities in the short time she was outside.

Any fleeting inspiration may slip away during this time.

Chu Yan looked at her disappearing figure and couldn't help muttering:

"Are the core scholars of the Yama Empire also in such an obsessed state?"

It’s not easy!

If Yana-sister's mother and I really have this kind of personality, then there is no way for us to have any contact. At most, we can just get to know each other, but there is no way for her to look after me at certain times.
