Demon Sage

A lamp stands on the wide redwood table.

The gentle bright yellow light reflected on the table and Donald’s face. He held a pen in his hand, the tip of the pen fell on the page, and the oozing ink quickly dyed a small black on the surface of the paper. point.

“David…Blitz…Leonard…”

With names from Donald’s Spit out from the mouth, the pen tip will cross out these names one by one.

Pause when you hit the fifth name, there are three more names below and some names that are one size smaller than the ones above.

“So soon? Five have already been removed?”

Victor, who was sitting across the table, watched the characters on the list provided by him keep being picked up. Erase, asked in disbelief.

Donald has spent nearly half a year digging out the people on the list through various channels.

People who can be selected for this list generally have one or more of the following characteristics:

The Talos family’s cronies or minions in Renas, For example, Dolly David, the tobacconist’s loan shark and tobacco smuggling business were actually instructed by the Talos family. To be precise, he was an agent and the personal purse of Serveit Talos.

There are many evil people in the city of Reyna, such as Betsy Blitz, one of the bosses of the Reiners gang, who is involved in human trafficking in the city close to 2/3/2022.

People at the top of the government who tend to squeeze the common people to support the upper class, such as Hansa Leonard, as the director of the Urban Planning Bureau of the city of Rainas, if not this guy has been like a day for more than ten years The faithful implementation of the decree of oppressing civilians, today’s Renas will not show such extreme polarization.

The above three features are the main features, and some detailed aspects are not described in detail here.

“It’s just some of the more critical people to get rid of in the early stage. Since these 8 people were specially selected by you from so many people, I think they should have been carefully considered by you, and naturally they should be eliminated first. , but it is currently limited to these few people. After they are eliminated, other people should not be able to move in a short period of time. Too many deaths at once will also not be conducive to our plan.”

Donald Returning to Reina half a month ago, but did not start action immediately, did not even inform Victor of his own island, but secretly investigated for a period of time, relying on Stephanie’s ability to collect a lot of Reina information on the city.

Of course, because of the rush of time, Stephanie didn’t have the opportunity to have a deep understanding, and it can only be said that she barely had a basis for judging some things.

It’s just that although there are still quite a few names on Victor’s list that Donald hasn’t even heard of, he is confirming that the names of several key people he knows are on it. After that, I am still willing to give Victor enough trust in the rest of the content.

After all, they are collaborators now. In addition to being vigilant with each other, basic trust is still needed. Otherwise, they will start to suspect each other before things are completed. This is a taboo for cooperation. Donald is not that stupid.

“Yes, you can’t be too impatient, you have to take it step by step… Is there anything I can help with most recently?”

Victor knew that he was currently in Donald He couldn’t get involved in what he was doing, so he simply led the topic to another place. He wanted to show his worth in front of Donald.

Victor involuntarily developed a sense of urgency after learning that Donald only took a week to clear more than half of his people.

Or in other words, it is a sense of crisis that arises when there is a great gap between the strength of the other side of the cooperation and one’s own side.

To put it bluntly, Victor is worried that he will be solved in the same way by the other party after the cooperation ends.

In fact, compared to the existence of the rich and aristocratic, Victor, as a wanted criminal, would not cause any trouble to kill him at all.

“I need you to help me keep watching the situation in the literary sect, the lost slate has been translated, you have to inspire them to find the black robe saint, it is best to let the news agency Do some targeted reports. All in all, the popularity of public opinion must be maintained no matter what. This is your task. I don’t care what method you use to achieve it. Content!”

Propaganda, this is the most critical thing at the moment, Donald smearing the people on the Must Kill List one by one is not just to clear the tumor, he also wants to match the prophecy on the slate to let the public Believing in his existence, and worshipping him.

Reinas is not the original mountain village. It is a big city with a population of nearly 300,000. Donald impossible spreads his beliefs by serving the public just like the former Claremont.

Not only because of time constraints, but also because Renas’ government, even the imperial government, does not allow religions to appear in this city!

The so-called non-religious city is not just talking about it, it is not allowed by the empire, let alone a religion that has never been heard of, even if it is a righteous sect, it is also not allowed to be established here. Any building of faith or organized civil society.

Donald is naturally impossible by the strength of oneself to change the policies of the imperial government, so if he wants to achieve his goals, he must find another way. He does not need church worship, nor does he need to form a large-scale believer group temporarily. , what he wants is to win a considerable number of believers for himself through his actions.

In view of the current social environment in Reinas City, with civilians accounting for nearly 90% of the total population, it goes without saying that Donald wants to “please” the group.

After all, the magical power of Power of Faith does not increase or decrease because of someone’s wealth or power.

“I understand, I will pay attention to the literary sect, as for public opinion… There should be no problem, my students have a fairly wide social circle in the civilian area, I will Let them spread the news as much as possible.”

Victor’s face became more relaxed after hearing Donald’s request. He was not good at fighting, but he was not good at public opinion Stronger than Donald, especially in civilian areas.

Victor was not accepted because of his research results. Victor, who was once decadent, worked as a teacher for nearly three years in a common area to subsidize his food and drink expenses and maintain his minimum living expenses. experiment.

To get a contemporary Peak scholar to teach to some young people who are striving for progress in the civilian area, this is what they yearn for something even in dreams.

So during that time, Victor with no difficulty knew a lot of youngsters in the civilian area, those that Donald had seen before.

It turns out that this may be the most correct thing Victor has done in his life besides his own research. These young people not only allowed Victor to find a career that he is willing to fight for his whole life, but also in his life. Later, when he faced the pursuit of the Renas government, he came forward. It can be said that without them, Victor would have died long ago.

“Very good…very good!”

Seeing that Victor was so confident, Donald felt that he should still express himself. After thinking about it, he continued,

“Your Excellency Victor, I know what your ideal is, and I don’t mind helping you realize it, because it is also part of my plan, trust me, wait for me The day when the plan is successful, you will find that you are only one step away from the ideal success.”

“Then I wish our plan a success!”

After listening to Donald’s words, Victor didn’t say much, but got up and stretched out his hand.

“Happy cooperation!”

Victor’s behavior is obviously that he still doesn’t believe in himself, and Donald doesn’t think there is any problem with this.

Some things have to be explained by practical actions!
