Damn it, this boss really has no normal skills.

Chapter 555 Hey, Pick Another Flower
Although the newly learned shadow shading technique would definitely not work here, Ji Ming still had the simple and useful old trick [Suggestion] to use.

So in the eyes of outsiders, they might be watching a pair of idiots standing on a platform, staring at a giant fluorescent light bulb in the distance.

But in the real world, Ji Ming's thoughts have actually obscured the perception of all living things around him, including the people from the two sects.

The first to be affected was Koster, who was holding the railing, staring at the holy mountain like a bug seeing the light.

“Hehehe, there is actually a Flower-level Messenger who dares to be alone with me. Just be obedient and relax your mind and accept my great treatment!”

However, just as Ji Ming put his hand on the back of Koster's head, preparing to dig out another corner of Mi Lin Lao Deng, he found that something seemed wrong.

"Brain, where's my brain!"

Just like the Dantian in the fantasy world is located behind the navel and in front of the kidneys, the spiritual consciousness is also located in an objectively existing organ.

Therefore, if Ji Ming wants to reshape Dandelion's consciousness, the other party must first have a qualified brain.

However, the current situation is that the person can be controlled, and controlled very tightly, but even after touching the back of his head, there is no place to operate!
"Turtle, why does this situation seem a little bit wrong?"

However, Ji Ming did not panic. Instead, he expanded his spiritual sense, covering Dandelion's entire body and began a comprehensive scan.

then……

"Ah this."

Now he finally knew what the problem was - this dandelion was not without a brain, but his brain was not in his head, but in his stomach!
After he followed Dandelion's spiritual consciousness and thoroughly examined his body for the second time, Ji Ming couldn't help but think of a weird joke he had heard before.

"Do you think our brain is a parasite and nerves are its tentacles? Is it relying on this method to control our body's actions?"

as well as.

"Hou Lixie, it turns out my mom is a necromancer! I went to the hospital today and took some X-rays and found out that there's actually a super skeleton sealed inside of me that can move in sync with me!"

That’s right, although on Earth where technology is paramount, these are nothing but a joke, but in the Yangyue World, similar things are by no means impossible.

——For example, the person in front of Ji Ming.

It turned out that Mr. Koster, the Archbishop of the jungle, with whom he had been communicating for a long time, was just a lifelike puppet costume.

The real dandelion is the one inside his body, a strange plant with branches and tendrils covering every inch of his body like nerves and tendrils!

Therefore, Coster's previous dullness and taciturnity can be explained, just like the alien cockroach in "Men in Black" who moved around in human skin. It was simply the leather suit that restricted his acting skills, so he could just tear it off.

Objectively speaking, this biological form is actually quite disgusting. After all, whether it is the head, neck, heart or fatal blow, all of Koster’s biological weaknesses are not weaknesses.

You can even use tentacle entanglement, flesh parasitism, hypnotic pollen, paralyzing toxins, sensory shielding and other wonderful combos that can be stacked together to make the atmosphere become very strange.

But who could blame him for being too arrogant? Had he really followed the normal visiting procedures and swaggered to the headquarters of the Holy Light Church to witness with his own eyes the holy mountain that was the remains of the gods?
Just like fish cannot live without water and lazy dogs and dragons cannot live without beds, plants’ pursuit of light is also engraved in their bones.

Just like the vampires next door, no matter how high their level is, they cannot completely resist the temptation of thirst and can only use willpower to control their desire as much as possible.

However, what appeared before his eyes now was the purest holy light, closest to the origin. Just absorbing a little bit of it would make him soar high.

The God of Farming Grayson certainly doesn't have to endure it. He can even sign an agreement with Bishop Sterling to send some Holy Light monks from time to time to let him enjoy a complete Holy Light bath.

But as the first monk in the Jungle Church in the past hundred years to feel the origin of the Holy Light so closely, and a dandelion, an unprecedented artificial plant...

Under such a coincidence, it was reasonable that Ji Ming, who was already good at mind control, would take him down in one move.

What follows is the classic anti-brainwashing three-piece set - clearing the influence of the jungle god, stripping away chaotic thoughts, and rebuilding a complete mind.

After completing this process, although Koster looked unchanged on the outside, he had become a staunch believer in God in his heart.

Moreover, compared with Mi Lin, who also uses the temptation of power and money but is actually mainly based on brainwashing, Ji Ming's approach is much more open-minded.

Viper likes to play and make noises, so let her and her believers and friends play with Grayson and fully relax their restraints.

Thyme likes to do scientific research, so the research rights of perfect life and the library in the high tower castle are opened to him for reading and research.

Roses and dandelions like fame and fortune and are eager to make progress, so let them be our traitors. When the Deep Forest Kingdom collapses, they will definitely be credited with a special merit.

Thus, under the targeted counter-offensive, Ji Ming unknowingly managed to attract four of the twelve golden flowers in the dense forest.

There is no way. From a third-rate company that is already on the countdown to bankruptcy and still likes to PUA its employees, to the world's largest giant company with millions of employees and constantly expanding, no employee can withstand such poaching.

[Sadly, the poor victim Mi Lin, who has been labeled with four hats, is still kept in the dark by everyone. Alas! ]

"Kid, this is not funny."

But the boss's strange words did remind Ji Ming that he had recently instigated two flowers to rebel, and the probability of the jungle god discovering something was wrong was increasing.

Since concessions are no longer possible, the only thing he can do now is to intensify his efforts, borrow the methods of roses and dandelions, and try to trick as many flower-level messengers as possible into contacting him, so as to speed up the process of rebellion.

It would be best if He waited until the day when He and the God of the Forest had a falling out and faced each other head-on. Then He would come down from the Kingdom of God and be surprised to find that, except for the Pope, there was no one else on His side...

No! It would be best if all high-level combat forces, including the Pope, had become traitors!
——Damn it, did I found the Black Organization?!
Since Dandelion had been converted into one of his own, things became simple afterwards. Ji Ming followed the procedures and completed the tour before dark.

After all, he was a high-ranking pagan, and Archbishop Koster would definitely not stay overnight in the Holy Light Church, so he led his men back to Qixia City.

So after sending the tour group to the temporary residence arranged by the pioneers, Ji Ming's mission for the day was over.

But just as he was about to leave, he was suddenly stopped by someone.

"My Lord, may I speak to you in private?"

Ji Ming:? ? ?
He looked up and saw that it was the young man who was the head of the tour group's security. "You..."

But he still had time to leisurely recall the past, but the young man in front of him was already getting anxious.

"My Lord, I am also a royal relative! Please consider this for a moment. I really have something important to tell you!"

"Ok?"

As soon as he said this, Ji Ming was no longer sleepy and immediately said okay, "Let's go to the private garden you visited yesterday morning. I forgot to return the key... No, the key is still in my hand, it's convenient."

A moment later, Ji Ming walked into the garden with the head guard. He allowed him to check everywhere like a panicked animal, and then put down several magic circles as alarm devices before speaking.

"It would be meaningless for me to harm you. Instead, I should be on guard against you harming me."

The head guard waved his hands quickly.

"No, no, no, I absolutely do not intend to harm you. On the contrary, I really need your help!"

Seeing that the boy was so scared that his eyes started to turn red, Ji Ming stopped threatening him and sat on the bench in the pavilion.

"I'm taking a risk by meeting with you in private. I'll give you three minutes to make your intentions clear."

"Okay, let me introduce myself first..."

As soon as the young man opened his mouth, Ji Ming was happy.

There's no way his story could be connected to the story of that unlucky Koster.

Since the dandelion is a special plant created by humans, then as its official leather case, Coster's identity is naturally real.

Just like those big families who like to play both sides and send their children as hostages everywhere, Koster is actually the "loyalty" offered by the Feiyu family to the Jungle Church.

And the real Coster was doing well in the church at the beginning. At least he became the bishop of a large noble territory through his own efforts.

After all, he is not the kind of noisy playboy, but a well-educated, calm, steady, and reliable high-quality man in the deep forest.

But also because of this, the lucky Coster, with his dead-like personality that he didn't even need to act, became the best parasite for Dandelion.

Good news, Xiao Ke has been on a rapid rise since then, and has gradually reached his current position as the Archbishop of the Southern Region.

Bad news, Xiao Ke is no longer the rich son of Feiyu family, but the official skin of Shui Lingling Dandelion.

So, since these aristocratic families can have the best of both worlds, why can't the Deep Forest Royal Family do the same?
So the person in front of Ji Ming, in terms of seniority, should actually be considered the seventh son of King Lionheart.

Note that, considering that successive Lionheart kings had many children, I can develop the "good" habit of not even acknowledging my illegitimate children.

Strictly speaking, this gentleman named Archita was not the seventh son of King Richard the Lionheart, but only the seventh son acknowledged by him.

And even if she was recognized, she would only get a ticket to join this royal war. Compared with the three crown princes, Achita's value was still too low.

So in order to prevent him from being punished by his brothers and sisters for taking his left foot first when leaving the house, Aqita's mother, a noble lady, secured for him the qualification to be a hostage and enter the Jungle Church.

After all, he is a descendant of the Old Lion family, and the young man has good hardware. Not only did he become a member of the armed monks with his excellent fighting talent, he also climbed step by step to his current position.

But as we all know, the higher you climb, the farther you can see, and the easier it is to see whether you are in a free space or a shrinking puddle.

So when Archita was promoted again and qualified to manage the peace and stability of a diocese, he suddenly found that his situation seemed quite bad.

Especially after he accidentally discovered the secret of Archbishop Cortes, he was frightened to the point of being unable to sleep or eat, fearing that one day he would become the parasite of some strange plant.

That's right, this was the fundamental reason why he gave up his position as the commander of the Forest Guards and followed Archbishop Koster on a diplomatic visit to such a faraway place.

——It’s gone, it’s gone, everyone just laugh it off.

According to Aqita's original plan, he would take swift and resolute action as soon as he entered Qixia City, and secretly contact the Pope of Holy Light as quickly as possible to ask for asylum.

But as we all know, plans can never keep up with changes, not to mention that this kid is indecisive and weak, unable to handle important tasks.

So the agreed immediate action turned into a procrastination disaster. It was already the last day of the three-day visit, and Aqita had not taken any action.

It was not until he, as the chief of the guards, followed the archbishop to visit the Holy Light Church and met Kimien, the Chosen One, who seemed easy to talk to and was friendly to everyone he met, that he finally mustered up the courage.

So the limited-time event "Plans Can't Keep Up with Changes" was reproduced again. Aqita, who had originally wanted to be more reserved, started to spill her beans after being scared by Ji Ming.

"Oh, so that's why."

Given Ji Ming's personality, he would definitely be happy to see the defection of people from Shenlin and would strongly support it. But it was not satisfying to see only one or two small pawns coming over to make trouble.

This was also the fundamental reason why Ji Ming, after inciting Rose and other Flower-level envoys with relatively normal IQ and EQ to rebel, sent them back as spies without saying a word - laying mines.

But from another perspective, since time is on his side, Ji Ming would not risk breaking up the relationship prematurely and withstand Shen Lin's pressure to forcibly protect a small figure who can't even become the crown prince.

Of course, this does not mean that Aqita has no value in his existence, so Ji Ming’s response is.

"Since you are also a member of the royal family, why did you think of escaping when you encountered such injustice? This is too shameful!"

Aqita was confused by Ji Ming's question: "Ah this..."

And before he could realize that it was Ji Ming, an outsider, who was taking advantage of other people's money, Ji Ming's second round of questioning began.

"Are you doing this to justify the blood of the lion in your body? Or do you think that simply running away can solve all the problems? Don't you care about your mother who is so good to you?"
