What Wu Xin said to Wei Yi was actually a question he wanted to ask himself.

——Do you want to stay in a place like the hub station for the rest of your life?

The president gave Wu Xin an analogy: Being the king at the hub is like a loach struggling in a mire that is gradually drying up.

Wu Xin has never seen a loach, but he can understand this feeling.

Growing up, he had heard from the president more than once about the vastness and weirdness of the outside world.

He knew that with his talent and strength, he might be able to dominate the hub, but outside, he would be nothing more than an ordinary warrior.

He also knew that even if he could dominate the hub, his future prospects would not be as good as being the commander of a small team in the Holy Kingdom.

——Just like this paladin named Lussac.

When walking with him, Wu Xin felt that this man's strength was not as good as hers, but his magnanimity and majesty were not comparable to hers.

Lussac's knight protective gear is all neat and brand new, but his sacred breastplate was turned out from nowhere by the president. If you look closely, it has a lot of scratches and wear.

I don’t know how long it took, but there was already rust on it.

Wu Xin is not inferior because he knows that if he goes out, he can do better than Lussac.

Unlike supervisors like Wei Yi, his promotion route is to the military rather than to the priesthood. This is why the president asked him to dress up like a paladin - his "identity" is the holy choice trained by Priest Naqin for many years. Finally, he was baptized successfully.

Wei Yi clenched her fists, and her palms were already sweating.

Not only because of the huge benefits before him, but also because he understood why the president did not tell them these plans in advance.

To him, the western area of ​​the hub station where the fog men were plundering was actually a place that was worthless and a pity to abandon.

So even if Wei Yi knew the plan in advance, he would probably agree to this condition.

But what if he doesn't agree?

What will these people do to themselves...

The Holy Kingdom recruits them because they value their control over the hub, and they want to use them to maintain stability.

If there had been internal strife in the city before this, they would have started fighting themselves... What the Holy Kingdom wanted was not a hub for civil strife. It would be no different from directly sending troops to recover, and there would naturally be no talk of subsequent investment and support.

To take refuge in the Holy Kingdom, everyone must agree.

Wei Yi looked at Naqin with questioning eyes.

Naqin lowered his eyes: "I have already sent people to 'invite' the two supervisors. Maybe they haven't arrived yet because of the long distance."

The old director's hands were crossed as if praying, and his pious look made people no longer doubt that he was once a priest.

But the tone in Naqin's words still made Wei Yi shudder.

Director Naqin of the North District is obviously one of the planners, and Director Li Ken of the East District has always been loyal. Judging from Wu Xin's performance, this person is already tempted.

Destroy people's future, block people's way of making money...

So, what about He Falcon?

This kid has always been ambitious. Compared to the damaged West District and the chaotic North District, his South District is currently the most developed and the furthest away from the Holy Kingdom.

He had every reason to disagree.

we can even say.

If others made this decision without authorization, it would be equivalent to betraying He Falcon, his fellow supervisor.

Of course, he may be the one being considered a "traitor" now.

Maybe He Falcon had gotten wind of the news and was careful not to show up... Could it be that as the planner, Naqin didn't take precautions in advance?

At this time, Priest Valu from the Holy Kingdom spoke:

“Brother Wu Xin has almost talked about the gospel given to us by the Holy Lord, but in addition to blessings, what should be discussed more is our obligations to God.

“Let’s ask Brother Naqin to introduce this part.”

Naqin nodded, this is what he should do.

He pondered and quoted a passage of scripture:

"The sacred flame will remove all evil...Oakland ordered his warrior to come to the world, Holy Lord Phoenix, and he banished Narko to the depths of the earth."

This is not from "Holy Fire", but from "Glorious Scripture".

——The original text written by the first Holy Lord, the "Holy Fire" distributed to the people of the Holy Kingdom can only be regarded as a castrated version of it.

Naqin’s next voice was like a broken stone:

"Our only real duty is to destroy the darkness!"

Before he finished speaking, as if they had received a signal, all the servants of the Holy Kingdom drew their swords.

Before everyone in Fangshi could react, Wu Xin shouted an order at the same time: "Surround Xizhen!"

"Anyone who dares to resist will be beaten to death!"

——He regretted a little. He should have said "shoot to kill", which was more elegant and more in line with the status of a Paladin.

At this time, everyone present took action. Some people took out crossbows and kicked over tables and chairs as cover, some blocked the escape route by blocking the windows, and some directly rushed towards the kitchen with swords in hand.

Suddenly, the hall was filled with screams, and the entire Xizhen Tavern was surrounded by water.

"What's going on, what's going on!" Zhang He was so frightened that he almost squatted on the ground, but he managed to get up and walk out of the counter.

"My lords, have we not treated you well... we, we are all the property of Liangshui Merchant, and it has absolutely nothing to do with the darkness you are talking about. It is all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!"

He had been hiding aside to settle accounts just now, feeling that what these big shots were talking about had nothing to do with him.

Now the other party suddenly attacked, and Zhang He could only hear a few words clearly. He didn't know how to defend himself, so he could only move out the financial backers behind the tavern, hoping to scare them.

He did know that part of the reason why his previous boss Wei Hong was so tough was because Fangshi would not easily offend criminal dealers.

"'Good water'..."

Priest Valu, who had always looked calm, suddenly smiled, as if the scene of the sword encounter had nothing to do with him.

He walked slowly to Zhang He.

Zhang He didn't dare to express his anger, he just felt that his fate would be decided at this moment.

"Child, reach out." The old man smiled kindly.

Zhang He stretched out his hand, trembling.

Click.

A pair of heavy iron shackles were locked on his hands.

Valu touched the top of his head lovingly, closed his eyes and prayed:

"Wait for rebirth, poor child."

Zhang He suddenly fainted.

The servants on one side dragged him to the middle and guarded him.

"These people are the minions of darkness hidden in the hub," Naqin is introducing to everyone. "They are men and women who have been seduced and fallen by Narko. They have turned away from the glory of the Holy Lord."

"They call themselves the 'Lang Ninja Group'!"

From time to time, people from the West Town Tavern were dragged out, handcuffed and delivered to the servants of the Holy Kingdom.

Unlike Zhang He, many of them glared at the enemy and looked very stubborn, with traces of training on their bodies.

"One of the conditions for the Holy Kingdom to accept us is to search for these members of the Lang Ninja Group at the hub."

Wu Xin explained to Wei Yi in more popular terms that he did not understand the religion of the Holy Kingdom like Naqin did, but he still understood the political struggle.

"The number of rebels handed over to the Holy Kingdom is also considered our political achievement and is the evidence for future promotion.

"The president has long discovered that Liangshui Traders are just their disguise. The reason why he kept it secret and ignored it is to allow them to develop, so as to provide more places for rebels!

"The West Town Tavern is still just a small business of theirs, and the roots of the Lang Ninja Group are still in the North District, but there is no need to worry about arousing suspicion...

"The chaos in the North District is just an illusion. This is a trap - Director Naqin has never relaxed his management of the area. Many gang leaders are his old subordinates. If the Lang Ninja Group causes chaos in the North District, their power will be destroyed." Expose them and destroy them in one fell swoop.”

Wei Yi looked at Naqin.

Their wooden table was the only one still intact in the venue, with all the food and drinks.

The old supervisor drank a glass of light wine.

Everyone, including Wei Yi himself, had once despised him, thinking that this old man was going to be buried soon, but he was just relying on his seniority and seniority to stand alongside these new and determined supervisors.

However.

This aging supervisor is only now showing his edge.

He allowed the middle forces to grow in the North District. He did not give up the area, but used it as bait for hunting and feeding fish.

His sights were never limited to the hub.

Now it’s time to close the net.

At this time, a member of the gang came over and said a few words to Naqin.

His hand trembled and the drink spilled onto his palm.

Wei Yi quickly wiped him off with her robe and asked with concern: "Old man, what's going on?"

He had already put aside his contempt and was completely impressed by Naqin.

Wei Yi could feel that her bright future depended on this old thief.

But Naqin was silent for a while.

"It's not the North District..." His expression was complicated.

"Someone's taken over the East End."

"Ken Li...is dead!"

The old man's tone finally lost its calmness.
