Chapter 140
"Minister Ernest wants us to protect a guy named Berrick. He is a spy planted by the minister in the 'An Ning Dao'. He has gained the trust of the leader of the An Ning Dao and is an assistant to the leader."
Esdeath said: "But these are not the main points. The main point is that the four Rakshasa ghosts under the minister will most likely appear at that time. It would be best if the four Rakshasa ghosts can appear. If not, then Berrick will be eliminated."
"An Ning Dao? Is it a religious organization?"
Bai Ye asked in confusion.
The name sounds like a religious organization.
"Yes, this is a religious organization that suddenly emerged from the folks. I heard that the leader of An Ning Dao seems to have a very charismatic personality and strong leadership, so the development speed of 'An Ning Dao' is very fast."
Esdeath explained.
"Well, let's not worry about this religious organization for now, let's solve the target that needs to be solved."
Bai Ye said lightly.
He still cares about this "An Ning Dao".
It mainly depends on the position of these guys.
Now they can rebel whatever they want, but if they are still restless after he overthrows the Ornest regime, don't blame him for being rude.
"Let's pretend to protect Berlik first, and then see if the four Rakshasa ghosts will appear."
Esdeath said.
............
The base of An Ning Dao is located in the east far away from the imperial capital.
An Ning Dao has developed into a huge city with a large number of believers.
At this moment, Bai Ye and Esdeath have arrived at the territory of "An Ning Dao".
The people here are all believers of "An Ning Dao".
"Master!"
"Master!"
"......"
Today they all gathered together, surrounding the master on the stage.
The master wore a stag skull on his head.
As he raised his hand, at least thousands of people gathered below suddenly quieted down.
"Now this world... is full of sorrow..."
The master began to preach.
The general content is that life is very difficult nowadays, and everyone is hungry and poor, but because of this, the mind cannot be shaken, and we must persist in doing good deeds, and one day good deeds will be rewarded.
"But, but Master, even if you keep doing good deeds, once you die, won't it be meaningless?..."
At this time, someone below asked loudly.
The Master was silent for a while, and then said calmly: "Even if you lose your life, it is only the end of the flesh. The soul still exists in the world, and will finally enjoy happiness in the Kingdom of God."
These words made all the doubts in the audience disappear immediately.
"Just yesterday, a brother stepped into the Kingdom of God to protect his younger brother who was hunted by dangerous species. His name is Joachim. I will never forget the name of this hero in my life..."
The Master looked nostalgic.
At this time, Bai Ye and Esdeath were mixed in the crowd. Because the attention of other people around was completely on the Master, no one recognized them.
Listening to what the leader said, Bai Ye felt that this "An Ning Dao" was not bad, at least it was not a cult that specifically brainwashed people.
The people in the audience were immediately grateful, especially the "younger brother" mentioned by the leader.
At this time, he was in the audience, and he shed tears of gratitude, "Master... you actually remembered my brother's name..."
The brother's wife beside him was also excited and in tears.
Next, the leader gave another example.
He even remembered the number of the deceased in An Ning Dao very clearly, and this unique memory also made him popular.
"So, death is not the end of everything, their names and memories still exist in the world."
The audience was boiling.
"Master!"
"Master!"
"..."
They shouted to the Master excitedly.
Behind the Master, there was a bearded man.
He was the secondary target of Bai Ye and Esdeath this time, Bolick.
As for the main target, it is naturally the four Rakshasa ghosts.
With the Mangekyō Sharingan, Bai Ye could see that at this time, Berrick showed a sinister smile behind the leader. After all, this guy is a traitor.
............
Bai Ye and Esdeath are changing clothes in the dressing room.
Because Berrick held a banquet, Bai Ye and Esdeath were among the guests.
Bai Ye changed into a white suit, and Esdeath wore a bright red dress.
Esdeath's dress (drawn by the original author)
Arriving at the venue of the banquet, you can see many people and tables of sumptuous food..
Especially, Pericle sat there like a nobleman, with several maids wearing veils serving him.
"Oh... I feel more and more threatened recently, so I asked the minister for help."
Looking at the iceberg beauty in front of him, Pericle sighed: "I didn't expect that the strongest General Esdeath in the empire would come in person. Now I can rest assured!"
"Only my loyal subordinates are present at this banquet, so General Esdeath and this Excellency can enjoy it to their heart's content."
Since Pericle didn't know Bai Ye, he could only refer to him as "this Excellency".
"The minister asked us to protect you, just arrange a room for us."
Esdeath said lightly without rushing to reveal her true intentions.
"Of course there is no problem, my mansion is very interesting, hehe~"
Pericle had a meaningful smile on his face.
He was referring to the maids in the mansion.
Bai Ye had a blank expression on his face and had no interest in it.
Esdeath also remained calm. Although she was a little unhappy about what Berlick said, there was something that she was more concerned about at the moment.
She had already noticed four unusual auras on the ceiling, most likely the "Four Rakshasa Ghosts".
"We are not interested in those at all. In contrast, I would rather see the person hiding in the ceiling and spying on us."
Esdeath said in a cold tone.
"General Esdeath is worthy of being found so quickly."
Berlick was surprised.
He then snapped his fingers, signaling the four people in the ceiling to come out.
"They are the Four Rakshasa Ghosts from the Imperial Royal Fist Temple who help me control the entire Anning Road."
Berlick directly introduced the four people to Bai Ye and Esdeath.
Ji, Metz, Zhu Tian, Suzuka
"You are really here..."
Looking at the Four Rakshasa Ghosts in front of him, Esdeath smiled faintly.
At this moment, "Ji", one of the four Rakshasa ghosts, seemed to want to show off in public, so he chose Bai Ye, who didn't look as strong as General Esdeath.
He was like a ghost, and in a blink of an eye he flashed behind Bai Ye. Of course, he would not really attack Bai Ye, but just wanted to scare Bai Ye.
However, Bai Ye had already seen through Ji's actions. He predicted in advance that Ji would flash behind him, so he turned around and grabbed Ji's neck.
"When?!"
Ji was shocked, the other party's reaction speed was faster than his.
"I'm not interested in playing with you, but I don't mind sending you on your way."
Bai Ye said lightly.
At this time, Esdeath smiled jokingly, "You really chose the wrong target, his strength is stronger than mine."
"How is this possible..."
Hearing this, "Ji" was shocked.
General Esdeath is recognized by everyone as the "strongest" in the empire. How could this young man be stronger than General Esdeath?
Not only "Ji", but also the other three members of the Four Rakshasa Ghosts and Borik were all in disbelief.
They originally thought that this young man was just a small follower of General Esdeath, and never expected that he could be stronger than General Esdeath...
"Yes, I offended..."
In order to save his life, Ji had to apologize to Bai Ye.
Although he could easily break free from Bai Ye's hand, he was afraid that this would anger Bai Ye. If this young man was really as strong as General Esdeath said, then the consequences would be terrible.
Bai Ye let go of his hand, and Ji was relieved.
He didn't kill the Four Rakshasa Ghosts right away because he wanted to see if these four guys had any value to use.
If they were not useful, it would not be too late to get rid of them later.
Next, Bai Ye had a brief exchange with the Four Rakshasa Ghosts.
I learned that their names are: Ji, Zhutian, Suzuka, and Metz (also translated as horse head).
The one who just attacked Bai Ye was Ji, with a bare upper body, a strong body, and black eyes.
Compared with Ji, Zhutian is more burly, with a bald head, but the hair on his chin is very luxuriant, and a wine pot is hung around his waist.
Suzuka is slender and tall, wearing a tight Aikido suit, messy black long hair, and two strings of bells hanging behind her earlobes.
Metz is a girl with blonde hair, green eyes, and wheat-colored skin. She has a cute face and a good figure, and her upper body is more exposed.
"General Esdeath just said that you are stronger than her. Is this true?"
Metz's personality is obviously more lively. She can ask all kinds of questions curiously just after meeting Bai Ye.
"It's true."
Bai Ye nodded slightly.
At this time, Esdeath was talking to Bolick."Wow! There is actually someone stronger than General Esdeath. Just now, this guy Ji almost caused a big trouble."
Metz teased Ji with a smile.
Ji could only look frustrated and couldn't refute.
............
At the banquet, Bai Ye and Esdeath hadn't done anything yet.
After the banquet, it was already very late, so they stayed here.
Although Esdeath said that they had no interest in those things, it was not a severe rejection after all, so Bolick still sent some maids to serve Bai Ye.
It was because he knew that Bai Ye's strength was stronger than Esdeath that Bolick thought about trying his best to entertain Bai Ye.
But what Bolick didn't expect was that this would cause dissatisfaction in Esdeath...
When the maids were about to enter the room, they found that Esdeath was also in Bai Ye's room.
But they didn't take it too seriously, but continued to carry out Lord Bolick's orders, and they couldn't disobey Lord Bolick.
"What are you doing here?"
At this moment, Esdeath asked coldly.
"We are here to serve Lord Bai Ye. If Lord Esdeath needs anything, we will go and talk to Lord Bolick."
The maids replied.
They even took Lord Esdeath's needs into consideration.
"No need, you guys go out."
Esdeath said coldly.
"But...we..."
The maids were embarrassed.
Little did they know that Esdeath was on the verge of getting angry.
"Tell that guy that Bai Ye is my man. If this happens again...do you understand?"
Esdeath's cold tone already contained murderous intent.
"Okay...Okay!"
The maids were immediately frightened by Esdeath's icy eyes and quickly left the room.
The maid who ran the slowest even turned back to help close the door.
Esdeath locked the door and turned to Bai Ye and said, "Okay, no one will disturb us now."
"It's as if we are going to do something that no one can know..."
Bai Ye smiled awkwardly.
"It's definitely best not to be disturbed, after all, we are going to..."
As she said that, Esdeath slowly undressed.
Bai Ye realized that the atmosphere seemed a little wrong.
"What are you doing?..."
"I found that there are really a lot of girls around you, so I think I have to seize the opportunity."
Esdeath said directly, "But I will be on top, you just lie down~"
