Chapter 706 The mess after the explosion
Thinking of the unbelievers.
Everyone silently turned their eyes to Prince Vladin.
Vladin was a little overwhelmed.
"Wait a minute? Why are you looking at me like that?!"
Pete reminded helplessly:
"Your Highness, your father, His Majesty Kenredin, is also a unbeliever, and..."
The second half of the sentence that Pete didn't say was: If Vladin hadn't met them, he would actually be a unbeliever.
The term "unbeliever" is actually not very accurate.
Who to believe in and who not to believe in is the business of mortals themselves.
A more accurate usage should be "there is no god willing to accept his belief."
Vladin was puzzled: "So what, Mokred never thinks death is something difficult to accept, and we never avoid death."
"When we are alive, we will do our best to protect the continuation and prosperity of this kingdom. This is our innate mission."
"When a Mokred ends his journey, the next Mokred will take over his duty!"
Pete smacked his lips.
Perhaps this is the gap in realm.
Monger was afraid of death and didn't want to die, so he looked for various ways to extend his life.
Perhaps this was related to the contract he had signed with the devil.
He himself had not received any blessing from the gods, and he was also a contracted person of the devil. After death, his soul would become a plaything of the devil.
Did he want to escape from all this, so he finally embarked on the crooked path of colluding with the cultists?
Pete actually maintained a rather skeptical attitude towards Rune Monger's statement.
The cultists had a way to extend his life?
He felt weird no matter how he heard this.
Is it really that easy to extend life?
Pete seriously suspected that the so-called way to let him live for hundreds of years might be to use the evil god to infuse power to make people like the messenger of the stone fort, neither human nor ghost, and it was almost impossible to be called a human being.
If you are not too serious, there is actually a very simple way to distinguish:
Let the believers of the God of Knowledge beat up the target of suspicion.
After being killed, the monsters will drop legendary experience...
In short, from Pete's standpoint, he can't believe anything that the cultists say.
Just kidding.
Is it a foolish thing to believe in some crazy evil god instead of the great Norwen?
After listening to everyone's discussion, Brandon touched his chin and put forward his idea from another angle:
"Hey? Do you think there is a possibility?"
"We have different ideas from Monger, maybe because we are not as rich as him?"
"The gold coins of the Kingdom of Reyak can't be spent after death?"
"He made so much money and spent so much time. If he didn't spend all the money before he died, wouldn't he feel it was a waste?"
"If I were him, I would be willing to spend all the gold coins in my hand if I could live another 100 years."
"After all, gold coins can be earned again if they are gone, but they can't be earned after death."
Pet sighed helplessly.
"Who knows?"
For this kind of question, it is obvious that only Rune Monger himself knows what he is thinking.
No matter how others speculate, no matter how they think from his perspective, it can only be a guess.
But judging from the result, the situation is very simple.
No matter what the reason is.
When he is accused of colluding with the cultists, once his tracks are exposed, he will be met with a ruthless trial!
The danger of cultists is that the damage they may cause is indiscriminate.
The evil gods and monsters don't care if you are the richest man, a noble or an ordinary person!
They will only try to destroy everything and destroy everything equally and indiscriminately.
There is no reason for the millions of people in the capital to bear this huge risk just for Rune Monger's selfish desires.
What's more, the people in the capital did suffer a lot of losses because of this.
After the thunder of the Gilded Club exploded, the gold coins that were completely misappropriated and lost inside made Pete's scalp numb.
Although he could say confidently, "People who lose money are greedy and want the high rate of return! If you realize the risks, why not just not participate?"
For example, Miranda's father, Vance Warren, was very sober from beginning to end, and was not affected by the temptation of gold coins. He insisted on investing only 20 gold coins.
After Miranda returned to the capital, he did not intend to covet his future profits at all, and even planned to give up his membership in the Gilded Club. He handed the investment certificate to Miranda and Gale and asked them to redeem it.
But the actual situation is not that simple.
The current situation is:
The Gilded Club, which has been in operation for more than ten years, has penetrated into the meridians of the capital and even the entire kingdom.
For example, the certificate of the Gilded Club is used as a mortgage to get a "loan" with a lower interest rate.
For example:
An investment certificate worth 100 gold coins can be exchanged for 108 gold coins after one year.
Someone used this certificate to exchange for 104 gold coins from another person.
The two parties agreed to repay 106 gold coins after one year.
If the repayment is not completed, the investment certificate will belong to the other party.
And so on, layer after layer of nesting dolls.
Even directly use investment certificates as cash to exchange other assets.
These golds that should have been stored in the underground vault of the Gilded Club were "exchanged" out of thin air and circulated in transactions back and forth.
Now the Gilded Club has exploded.
The certificates may become worthless in an instant;
Those who hold a large number of certificates have become paupers in an instant, while those who cash in the certificates have made a lot of money out of thin air.
What should we do in this situation?
Everyone has a headache just thinking about it.
The biggest problem is the gap in gold coins.
It is easy to expose the scam of the Gilded Club, but after all this is exposed, how to clean up the subsequent mess is not a problem they can solve.
For things that he can't figure out and can't do anything about, Pete chooses to play badly.
This matter is obviously beyond their ability.
Their actions are supported by the king;
Kenreddin definitely knows the consequences of detonating the Gilded Club.
Then His Majesty the King should have prepared a back-up plan in advance;
Pet and the others just need to wait and see what happens next.
And...
Even if there is a mess that is difficult to recover.
Everyone is very confident now.
Because they still have the invincible God of Knowledge!
He is the biggest supporter of the believers of knowledge!
No matter how difficult the problem is, as long as you pray devoutly to the great Nowen, He will definitely give a complete and feasible solution to solve it properly!
...
There will be more later!
