Devil's Bible

There's no other way. If we don't do this now, the people who come after us might not necessarily suffer, but we certainly will.

Or perhaps you're already in a bad situation.

Although Dass is a big businessman, business is really tough these days.

Without the protection of someone behind him, everything he possesses can be taken away in an instant.

In the situation just now, if Dong Luo, Dong He, and others could provide support and truly stand up against Naims, he wouldn't back down.

Or they might come out and say a few polite words to smooth things over, and then he can say a few words to ease the tension.

However, those people did not dare to confront Nemus directly, and had no plan for a direct conflict or a fight.

On the other hand, they were afraid that the matter would escalate and become difficult to resolve.

So, they tacitly passed the difficult problem to him.

From the very beginning, it was Das who stepped forward; when the plan didn't go smoothly, he became the victim.

Even though Dass has nominally taken over the tavern, he's about to lose more than just one tavern.

If he can't secure this 'business', it's not unreasonable for him to fall into a ditch and kill himself one night while walking at night.

"Lord Nair, please." Das was constantly thinking about how to get through this difficult situation.

At that moment, as Nemus nodded and walked into the tavern, he felt the vibration of the commandments.

The precepts have been updated.

[Main Law: Forgiveness]

[Discipline Feedback: ... &%￥]

[Does it have...? Synthesize?]

[Completed, feedback updated]

[Discipline Feedback: Added (Old Bones Tavern) - Covert Gathering: You and your chosen members will become covert and difficult to detect during the gathering process.]

Chapter 90 The Adjudication Team

"Not bad..." Nemus thought to himself, this might be the right way to apply the Commandment of Forgiveness from now on.

Forgive those masters, or even forgive a faction, and provide acquired attribute bonuses through aggregation.

"And most importantly, this way I can become more and more familiar with the whole divinity."

Because he possesses two souls, multitasking is a piece of cake for Nemus.

As he pondered, Nemes observed the so-called Old Bones Tavern.

There were some customers sitting inside the tavern at the moment.

However, most of these guests are afraid of being exposed to light.

They all covered their faces with masks, veils, and other similar items, not daring to let anyone see their true appearance, and their clothes basically covered their entire bodies.

Besides those, there were the two 'clergy' at the bar.

The current 100-year-old paladin, Dongluo.

And then there's the pastor, Dong-hyuk, who's still a little shy of forty.

Dong Luo remained calmly seated, sipping an unknown beverage.

Donghyuk, however, stared at Nems with a gloomy expression, his gaze under the lamplight carrying a certain eerie feeling.

“Lord Nair…” Das followed Nair in and was about to take Nair aside to discuss some matters concerning whale products.

However, Nemus only glanced at Das, and Das understood the look in his eyes; it seemed to be asking if he could make the decision.

Dass was taken aback, then saw that Nems had already come straight to the bar.

"Let's discuss it. What percentage will I get?"

Everyone present was stunned. Was it really that direct?

"I don't understand..." Donghyuk was also taken aback by this direct behavior.

Although everyone knows perfectly well that you were called here to discuss the whale product trade, is it really appropriate to be so direct?

"Alright, Donghyuk." In this crucial moment, it was the senior who was able to handle things.

Currently, representatives from various parties have arrived to witness this event.

The whale products trade has been in disarray for some time now due to the Spanish issue.

Several forces were planning to get involved. Although Old Bones Tavern was the strongest, it was ultimately difficult for them to win over the masses.

They had originally planned to suppress Nemus's momentum and bring Nemus in as a balance, but instead, they acted as mediators, becoming the main players in this trade and thereby further strengthening the Old Bones Tavern's prestige.

As a result, Nemes had already taken things too far and disrupted their plans.

At this point, they had already lost a move. If they didn't dare to admit defeat when the opponent played a straightforward game, then their momentum would be completely gone.

Although Donghyuk has decent talent in cultivation, his life has been too smooth, so he lacks the mindset and ability to withstand problems and push through them when it matters most.

“We’re happy to give young people a chance, even if it’s just a small percentage. But there’s only one problem.” Dong Luo took a glass of beer from an upside-down barrel and placed it in front of Naimus. The aroma of malt was wonderful.

"How long can you hold onto this position?" Dongluo stared directly at Nems, seemingly waiting for an answer.

“You have your own troubles with Dartmenley, and Xibin might be keeping an eye on you too.”

"We did all this partly to see what you're capable of."

"You know, all those struggles up there."

Dong Luo was referring to the struggle between the land-grabbing faction and the peace-keeping faction.

The winds of this struggle have already blown to Baiwei Town, thanks to the old pastor's purchase of materials from the cult.

Now, the clergy members of the Judgment Team who have aligned themselves with the ruling faction are exercising the special powers of the Judgment Team under the pretext that the cult needs a large number of whale products.

Through grids and church magic, they monitored and regulated many corners and processes that should not have been regulated in the first place.

"Only by securing your position as a great knight can you withstand those struggles."

"If you don't deal with the cult, if you don't deal with the Spanish, if you don't deal with the adjudication team, and if you don't deal with your own problems, you won't be able to stay in this position, even if you don't go around arresting people to interfere with this business."

"This business can't continue." Dong Luo was stating the facts.

The cult associated with the old pastor, the Floating World Society, has not yet been eliminated.

The pro-government faction used this as an excuse to strictly regulate all kinds of whale products.

With the vacancy of the Grand Knight position, no internal power struggles have taken place, so Xiao Zong's deal is still in progress.

But the most important thing in business is to achieve scale.

While the profits might be enough for ordinary people, they are insufficient for them if the scale cannot be achieved.

Dong-ro himself has no needs, but Dong-hyuk is still young and has a slight chance of becoming a Golden Seed.

The same applies to other factions, most of whom are nobles.

They have private castles in the wild, and through this method, they excavate and produce various whale products related to floating whales; they are the producers.

The problem is that maintaining this level of production also requires significant costs.

Without the wealth generated by large-scale transactions, it would be difficult for them to continue this kind of mining.

Another important figure in Wagtail Town is Bishop Rhine, who has always been quite eccentric, neither helping nor stopping the actions of the Peacemakers.

Therefore, Nems is now a key figure.

Only a Grand Knight, with his existing authority, can order the Judgment Team to abandon this oversight.

Furthermore, it would be best to resolve the issue of the Floating World Society and, once things have settled down, restrict the privileges of the Judgment Team.

Only then can the business be considered stable.

This is why, after Nemes had only made a slight attempt to explore the whale products trade, these people immediately sent him a request to hold a gathering.

They can't afford to waste time, nor do they have the time to continue wasting time.

“I see. Then our cooperation will be very pleasant,” Nemes said with a smile, raising his beer.

The atmosphere seemed to ease at this point.

“Solving the Floating World Society is no problem, nor is dealing with Xibin, but I’m new here and only have two men under my command. I still need some help.” As Nemes spoke, he glanced at Klu, who had followed him in. Klu had his head down and seemed to regret coming here with Nemes.

Is it really appropriate to discuss something that violates church discipline so openly and honestly?!

"Of course, we don't need you to send anyone."

After a brief pause, Nems looked around.

Representatives of those involved in whale product smuggling and production, such as Dong-ra and Dong-hyuk.

"Of course, when I was in the dorsal fin village, I had some helpers, some of whom may have had questionable backgrounds."

“You might even know some of them, so could you do me a favor?” As soon as Nemes said this, everyone present, who wasn’t stupid, immediately guessed what was going on.

The atmosphere then completely eased, and some discussions began to emerge.

Some of the secret agents even removed their masks and veils, stood up, and raised their glasses to Nemus.

Nems demonstrated his ability by responding to Donghyuk's suppression.

At this moment, he revealed a part of his own 'flaw' and gained recognition of his identity.

A preliminary agreement has been reached.

Thank you for your support

Chapter 91 Similar

Many things haven't been discussed yet, because the cooperation hasn't officially started.

Nems did not receive any feedback from the vows and commandments.

This means that although the contract has been established, it is not yet considered complete.

We should only receive new feedback after we have successfully resolved the issue and the trade has been established.

"When the time comes, please pass on a message for me." Before leaving the tavern, Nemus looked at Donghe and instructed him matter-of-factly, "Just say that I will take care of Xibin's family."

Donghyuk was taken aback, then nodded, realizing that Nems was truly brave.

Strictly speaking, Xibin is also related to him in some way.

The so-called minor nobles were themselves formed from the splits of some noble families.

In some noble families, the family name is inherited by the eldest son. But what about the other talented sons?

They possessed considerable talent and were unwilling to give up the path of cultivation. However, resources were limited in some areas, so without internal strife, they naturally split up and went to other places to compete for resources.

If one achieves some success, then one becomes the head of a minor noble family, capable of maintaining a certain level of prestige.

Donghe's family is also related to the Xibina family by blood, but they cannot be considered a separate family.

Dongluo's father, lacking talent and unwilling to be confined to one place, chose to come to Baiwei Town, intending to take advantage of mating season to go to the backs of other whales.

Essentially, he left home, but then met his lover in Baiwei Town, got married, and had Dongluo.

Dongluo was quite talented, so his father swallowed his pride and asked the family for help to get Dongluo into the church and become a clergyman.

The Xibin family, however, was different; they were a legitimate branch family and could still inherit the noble title.

The two companies had some connection, but it was just a connection; many relationships changed over the past century.

These things weren't exactly secrets; in previous conversations, Dongluo had recounted his family's past.

This also warns Naim to be wary of Xibin.

"The family's bloodline is inherited from some special creature."

“We have lost this lineage, and our bloodline abilities are quite incomplete. But Xibin’s side still has a formal family lineage, so their development of the bloodline may be much more in-depth.”

A Steel Knight who has lost all identity, status, and future, has a stat of 80, possesses special bloodline abilities, and is currently wanted, is basically invincible.

They made it clear that they would take care of his remaining family members.

That would be a true declaration of war against the Spanish, and a war to the death.
