Chapter 1117. Take precautions before they happen

With Dardaniel's lesson learned from the past, Duanmu Huai immediately became vigilant and immediately found the Shepard siblings from the Star Alliance.

"You mean...that you want to conduct an inventory of religions within the Star Alliance?"

Hearing Duanmuhuai's request, Shepard was somewhat surprised.

"Yes, the evil gods are resurrecting. There are already traces of them in some places, and I suspect that the Star Alliance is no exception."

"This... I'm afraid it will be difficult."

Shepard looked troubled.

"After all, the Star Alliance advocates religious freedom, and because there are currently many races within the Star Alliance, many religions..."

"I'm not here to hear your reasons and excuses."

Duanmuhuai waved his hand directly, interrupting Shepard's words.

"Either you go and investigate, or you wait for the Inquisition to blow up those planets infiltrated by the followers of the evil god. It's your choice. What you think is your own business, but when I issue an extermination order to the Star Alliance colonies, don't Say I didn’t remind you.”

"……………I see."

Faced with the murderous intent in Duanmu Huai's words, Shepard was silent for a moment, then nodded.

"But what to do? Frankly speaking, most of us don't believe in these things. The so-called religion and miracles can most of the time be considered to be the result of some kind of supernatural attack or psychedelic drugs... …”

"You don't have to worry about that. You don't have to worry about hallucinations or anything like that. Just look at an indicator."

"What indicator?"

"It's simple, how many people died."

"…………………Why?"

I have to say that Shepard was really stunned when he heard Duanmuhuai's answer.

"dead?"

"Yes, the penetration of evil gods is pervasive, but it is not easy for them to truly enter the real world. They must go through large-scale murder sacrifices and distort the reality barrier in that area to open the subspace channel. Of course , maybe five or six people will die at first, then dozens of people will need to die, and then hundreds of people will die. When thousands of people die, the devil will come out and cause chaos all over the ground. If more people die, More, and then I can issue an extermination order to that planet."

This is also the standard procedure for handling cases by the Tribunal. Basically, murders, especially murders based on curiosity, and series of murders based on curiosity, are mostly sacrifices to evil gods. So as long as players receive similar tasks, they can guess that this is definitely an evil god's quest line, but they don't know which evil god it is and what level of BOSS will appear in the end.

"………………"

Hearing this, Shepard's expression suddenly became serious.

"So it's very simple. Serial killings and curious killings. As long as you investigate these, you can get clues. I know you are not those... ghosts. You can kill them first and tell them later. By the way, there is no need to arrest the cultists. The best option is to execute them all. Good choice. Oh, by the way, in order to prevent you from getting into trouble by some weird evil magic, I will send an Inquisition team to act with you."

"That……………"

"By the way, it's impossible not to hurt innocent people. This thing is like an incurable infectious disease. Once infected, the entire area must be completely purified and disinfected. So if we raid the cult stronghold, we Please bear with me if I blow up a neighborhood or a city or something."

“……………Is it necessary to do this?”

At this moment, Shepard's expression was extremely stiff.

"You don't have to do it, then just wait for me to issue the extermination order. You can choose for yourself whether to sacrifice a city, a planet, or a galaxy - the Tribunal will protect mankind at any cost. And These are all necessary losses in the process of expelling the influence of evil gods."

Duanmuhuai spread his hands and stared at Shepard on the other side of the screen.

"When you sent the army to fight, you never thought that no one would die. The same is true for dealing with evil gods. The elimination must be comprehensive and thorough, otherwise sooner or later it will reappear."

"I see."

"Also, I will send people to monitor the Star Alliance network."

"...Is it necessary to do this?"

"Don't you think that evil spirits are just ancient rituals that only appear in movies?"

Duanmuhuai stared at Shepard with a half-smile.

"Do you think it's just like Dancing God? A group of FFFs wearing black robes holding torches, then eviscerating people, taking out their heart and lungs, and then sacrificing them to what kind of monster is called an evil god? This thing is better than you think. Much more powerful, they can also spread through electronic networks..."

Duanmuhuai has not forgotten that at Thirteenth Brother's place, that group of mentally retarded people tried to contaminate the Ultramarines' military network with viruses. Fortunately, Lumière discovered it early, otherwise the entire planet would have suffered a long time ago.

"Anyway, I've told you. You can figure out what to do next. If you don't want to see the Tribunal's army pressing down on the border and blowing some Star Alliance colony to ashes, I advise you to be careful."

After Duanmuhuai finished speaking, he cut off the communication and sighed.

"Really, that's why I don't like dealing with interstellar civilizations."

The more developed a civilization is, the more troubles it faces. The most troublesome thing is that because the transportation of interstellar civilization is relatively developed, it means that the infection is stronger.

If it were just one planet, in the worst case scenario, just issue an extermination order and kill them all. But for a civilization like this that has entered the field of interstellar colonization, it cannot be done by blowing up a planet. If it doesn't work, it may have to wipe out a galaxy or even more depending on the situation...

And these civilizations are not as obedient as those backward civilizations, and they always have some inexplicable sense of superiority.

In fact, among these worlds, Duanmu Huai is most at ease in the world of Faerun, because that world is already occupied by local foxes, and any outside monk will attract the attention of local foxes immediately - after all, who knows if you are Come to steal its chickens?

In a world with true gods, the more religions, the better.

But in a world without the protection of gods, it would be difficult to say...

"Dong dong dong."

Just when Duanmu Huai was complaining silently, there was a knock on the door, and then An opened the door and rushed in.

"Mr. Knight, when are we going to the new world?"

"Are you in such a hurry?"

Looking at the excited An, Duanmu Huai was speechless. Since coming back, An has been pestering Duanmuhuai to go to the new world for three days. Of course, Duanmuhuai also plans to do the same. As mentioned before, he gave a wave of enhancements to the people under the Tribunal through the dependent chess pieces, so naturally he also had to use soul cards to enhance them in order to be fair.

Duanmu Huai naturally wants to open up a new world, but he is doing it to improve the progress of the natural disaster. After all, he needs to continue to exterminate a race of sufficient size to unlock the etheric phase engine. But now it seems that the race that Duanmu Huai can easily destroy by himself is no longer recognized by the system as being of "sufficient size".

Such as a certain unlucky angel and demon.

But it’s hard to find an alien race of sufficient size...

It is precisely because of this that Duanmu Huai has not decided on the next world, but An seems to have been looking forward to it for a long time, jumping up and down, looking impatient.

"Even if you say that, I have to think about it carefully and search carefully before making a decision... Have you got nothing to do recently?"

"There's nothing going on. Everyone is very free."

No wonder he knocks on the door every day, and it turns out he is free.

Hearing An's answer, Duanmu Huai rolled his eyes helplessly.

"Then what kind of world do you want to go to?"

If that doesn't work, why not go to another world first to satisfy An and others' desire for exploration, and then move on? The progress of the natural disaster task becomes more and more difficult, and it is indeed not something that can be solved in a short while.

"It's magic after all! Miss Frillian's magic is very interesting. I just learned that there are all kinds of completely different magic systems in other worlds! It's so interesting!"

By the way, after returning to the Tribunal, Duanmu Huai originally planned to send Fulilian back to her own world, but the other party said that the books here were very interesting, and she planned to read them for ten years before going back... Okay, The immortal species' concept of time is indeed beyond the comprehension of ordinary people, so Duanmu Huai went with her.

And An naturally came into contact with the human magic system through Fulilian, and the result was not what Duanmuhuai expected. Although An was very interested in the human magic system used by Fulilian, she really couldn't use it.

Although this eldest lady was a top student in Manalia, she was unable to accurately understand the concept of "I am thinking" in the human magic system just because she was such a top student.

For example, these two structures are like an aerodynamics engineer and a fourteen-year-old girl. As soon as the former hears about flying, he must consider issues such as aerodynamics, turbulence, propulsion, gravity, etc., and put these issues into consideration. After this is resolved, it will be considered "theoretically" possible to fly.

But what about a fourteen-year-old girl?

Will she consider this? Of course not, because magical girls can fly. This is only natural. Is there any problem? As for how the magical girl can fly? Then forget it, after all, magical girls are the ones who can fly, and magical girls can definitely fly!

problem solved!

The latter is the concept of the human magic system - you must be very convinced that you can do it, and then you can do it. It doesn't matter how you do it. This magic can only be successful if it creates a very vivid impression in the mind, but it will not work on the other hand.

However, for top students like An, only when all the prerequisites are solved can the "theoretical" implementation issues be considered. Instead of skipping the steps, just imagine the results.

So An can't learn the human magic system, which is a pain point.

But although she couldn't learn it, An Daing, who was optimistic by nature, didn't care. On the contrary, she felt more and more that the magic in the outside world was rich and colorful, and there were all kinds of magic. Even this kind of unreasonable one sounded like nonsense. Everything you make up can become a whole on its own.

It’s so much fun!

"So I still want to go to the magical world, preferably an interesting magical world!"

"This request of yours is really troublesome...well, but it can be considered."

Hearing An's request, Duanmuhuai sighed helplessly, but still nodded. The good thing about the magical world is that those who use magic are basically psykers, and they are very close to the subspace. Therefore, if the evil god really starts to speed up the recovery process, then these psykers will definitely be the first to be affected.

"Well, I'll consider finding an interesting world."

As he spoke, Duanmuhuai lowered his head and glanced under the desk - Euryale, who was hiding there, raised her head and looked at him steadily, her eyes filled with anxiety and desire.

"Then...it's about time you go out? I still have things to do."

"Well, I know, then it's settled, Mr. Knight, don't cheat!"

After saying this, An hummed and turned to leave, while Duanmuhuai let out a breath, then stretched out his hand and pressed the goddess's little head under the desk.

"Then, go ahead."
