An Unfathomable Sense of Dread, Meeting Zesshi Zetsumei Again
Everyone present was intelligent, and they immediately understood the significance of the "Frogman's egg" that Tang Zheng had taken out.
Using Frogman Egg to replace babies?
Whether it will succeed or not is another matter!
The information revealed behind this bottle of Frogman Egg.
However, this left the Cardinal and "Pink" Isandro feeling overwhelmed with disbelief and shock!
These Frogman Egg were clearly not prepared on short notice, meaning that Team Leader Tang had prepared them in advance before arriving in the Theocracy.
Does this mean that the other side anticipated the current situation from the very beginning?
Is their research on "Assimilation Potion" truly as unrealistic as Team Leader Tang initially suggested, revealing a limited understanding of the potions' actual effects?
A series of questions and speculations have emerged.
The Six Cardinals wore solemn expressions, each suppressing their inner contempt and revealing an unprecedented seriousness and solemnity in their eyes.
They suddenly realized.
Perhaps we underestimated Team Leader Tang from the very beginning!
The Cardinal of Water Zinedine; Light Cardinal Yvon; The Cardinal of Darkness Maximilian.
These three Cardinal, known for their wisdom, were thinking even more deeply in an instant, and before they knew it, a layer of sweat had appeared on their foreheads.
If we make this speculation based on this premise!
So, when Team Leader Tang entrusted the "Assimilation Potion" to the Holy Kingdom, did he anticipate that their church would try to seize it?
This naturally led to the current series of events!
No!
The other side's plans may be more advanced.
The whole thing started with the Abelion Hills Incident. When Team Leader Tang took out the "Assimilation Potion" to buy it, he may have already begun to plan it!
What's the purpose?
What is the purpose?
The Cardinal of Darkness Maximilian's breathing quickened slightly, and he subconsciously raised his hand to push up his eye sockets.
This little gesture.
He has not done it since he became the Cardinal.
He couldn't immediately analyze what benefits the other party could gain.
Let's analyze the current situation.
The greatest beneficiaries are their Theocracy and Holy Kingdom?
Even the country where the other party is located, the Kingdom Ri Yestige, cannot benefit from this, let alone Tang, the leader who planned everything.
The Six Gods Scripture describe "Faith User of the dawn" as those who bathe in the glory of God, dedicating everything to God and humanity without seeking anything in return.
But how could that be!
He raised his head slightly.
Looking at the very young man opposite him, with a gentle and calm demeanor.
The Cardinal of Darkness Maximilian's pupils involuntarily contracted; he suddenly sensed an unfathomable and terrifying aura emanating from the other man.
This meeting was primarily hosted by the Theocracy.
The other side had already taken the initiative without us even realizing it!
"It seems everyone has already guessed the purpose of these Frogman Egg."
After Tang Zheng that Frogman Egg group had been silent, he nodded.
Indeed, you don't need to explain too much when talking to smart people.
Speaking of which...
These Frogman Egg did not come from the Abelion Hills, but from the Great Wetlands north of the Great Forest of Tob. In any case, there are many Demi-Human Species in the Abelion Hills, so even so, the Theocracy has no way of investigating.
He hadn't prepared in advance, but instead saw the Theocracy document on "Assimilation Potion" and discovered that Angel could actually integrate into infants.
He suddenly remembered the Frogman Egg that he had kept hidden in the corner of his Item Box.
These are the remaining materials from Tang Zheng's research on "Artificial Magical Beast: Frogman's Egg".
Research on "Artificial Magical Beast"
Tang Zheng had already mastered it, but it wasn't very useful. Theoretically, it was about using magic and special alchemical methods to forcibly mature Frogman's Egg and turn them into adult Frogman.
However, the Artificial Magical Beast Frogman created can only exist for about an hour, similar to summoned monsters.
For people from New World, this is a decent extra means.
But for Tang Zheng, it was a waste of time.
"I have not experimented with these Frogman Egg; Your Cardinal would probably need to send someone to study them."
Tang Zheng pushed the medicine bottle containing Frogman Egg in front of him forward:
"I know that you may not care about what I'm about to say, but I have to remind you."
"The basic ingredient of the ' Assimilation Potion,' as you all know, is a special alchemical potion derived from the blood of Demi-Human,"
"The source of this blood is a very special species with extremely few members, and the amount of blood that can be collected is very limited."
"Thousands of Angel need to be 'integrated,' and the potion is definitely not enough. If Frogman's Egg could be used for integration, then the dosage of potion required for each Frogman Egg would be extremely small."
That's all!
Tang Zheng's gaze swept over the changing expressions on everyone's faces. He didn't glean any useful information, but he didn't care.
The message has been made very clear!
Whether or not you want to use Frogman's Egg as the material for "integration", you can only use Frogman Egg because there aren't enough potions.
Zzz-la!
The conference chairs scraped against the floor, making a faint, grating sound.
Tang Zheng stood up amidst the puzzled gazes of the crowd, casually waving his hand. "I've said everything I needed to say."
"The rest is up to you."
Turn around.
Tang Zheng walked out of the hall without any hesitation. As he left the central conference table, the bright light shone on his back, and his shadow began to lengthen rapidly.
Tread!
Tread!
The sound of footsteps echoed across the smooth floor.
This moment.
Neither the Six Great Gods nor the pink-haired "Isandro," representing the Holy Kingdom, dared to speak up and stop them.
This meeting had long been dominated by this team leader, Tang, and had even deviated from its original direction!
They were clearly the weakest in terms of resources.
Tang Zheng, who seemed to be the easiest to control, has now become the most difficult person to restrain.
The gazes of the Six Cardinals and "Pink" Isandro clashed on the conference table.
Such huge profits!
There will be absolutely no compromise between the two countries, and Tang Zheng, as the creator of the potion, has become a figure who needs to be won over by both sides.
This situation!
If this were in the Kingdom Ri Yestize or the Baharuth Empire, it wouldn't be difficult to solve.
However, it was precisely the Slane Theocracy.
In order to preserve the strength of humanity and prevent losses from internal strife, we adhere to the principle of avoiding the possibility of war with any country.
Only by considering the perspective of humanity as a whole will the Slane Theocracy compromise.
"Our country sets aside a portion of its Angel each year in exchange for a special magical ritual called the ' Great Ritual '."
"Don't joke around!"
You simply don't understand the power of the "Great Ritual".
"Snort!"
"While our Holy Kingdom is indeed not as powerful as the Slane Theocracy, do not underestimate Holy Kingdom!"
"We can invite His Kelart to make a regular annual visit to the Slane Theocracy."
Please forgive me for refusing such an unreasonable offer!
"Mid-dang."
The meeting room door was closed, shutting out the sounds of arguing inside.
A slight smile appeared on Tang Zheng's lips.
He only needs to act as a coordinator; the rest— the Slane Theocracy and the Holy Kingdom —will discuss how to divide the profits among themselves.
Five thousand Angel every year.
There are also several Seventh-Tier, Principality, and even the right to allocate Eighth-Tier Angel.
This force.
Even the most powerful Slane Theocracy held an irresistible attraction for it, let alone the Holy Kingdom.
"The two sides will likely need to argue for some time."
"And now, the Theocracy no longer has the capacity to impose any so-called restrictions."
A hint of relief appeared between Tang Zheng's brows.
Without relying on overwhelming military force, but solely on the benefits offered, he guided the two countries to follow his own plan.
This feeling is indeed quite nice.
Most importantly, this allows him to remain hidden behind the scenes and secretly manipulate both countries.
"The next plan is to investigate the Theocracy one by one!"
Tang Zheng walked out of the church, lost in thought, when suddenly his gaze faltered.
And there it was!
At the church entrance.
A young girl was leaning against the shadows of the wall near the door, a black Cross-Spear War Scythe lying casually to the side, also in a corner against the wall.
A soft, crackling sound.
It came from the girl's hand.
Zesshi Zetsumei!
Tang Zheng's eyes narrowed almost imperceptibly; he hadn't expected to see the other person again.
"You're out."
Zesshi Zetsumei kept his head down, fiddling with a peculiar cube toy in his hand, as if he had been waiting for a long time.
Tang Zheng's gaze involuntarily fell on the cube toy.
It was a standard regular hexahedron, with each face consisting of exactly the right number of small cubes, and the surfaces of the cubes were painted in different colors.
As Zesshi Zetsumei's fingers flipped the cube, each piece seemed to be able to change position at will.
I saw this toy.
The name "Rubik's Cube" popped into Tang Zheng's mind.
This is certainly not a product of New World; it should be an item left behind by the Six Great Gods, but it's uncertain whether it's a magical artifact or an ordinary object.
"If it's only one side, that's fine, but it's very difficult to get both sides."
Zesshi Zetsumei's fingers flipped rapidly for a moment, then he spoke softly to himself.
It seems they know they can't turn things around in a short time.
Zesshi Zetsumei stopped what he was doing, looked up at Tang Zheng, and asked with curiosity in his heterochromatic eyes, one black and one white. "You're the first person who isn't a member of the Theocracy, yet those six guys take you seriously."
Tang Zheng paused for a moment, then introduced himself, "Free Will, Tang."
"I know."
The response was brief and contained no attempt to introduce himself.
Perhaps it was disdain, or perhaps it was indifference.
"I'm here to deliver props."
Zesshi Zetsumei's voice remained calm; neither his speech nor his facial expression displayed the rich emotions typical of a normal human being.
It was like magic.
Zesshi Zetsumei held a Rubik's Cube in one hand, and with the other hand, he revealed a rough-looking necklace shaped like a bronze feather.
It hung between my fingers, swaying in mid-air.
The magical shimmering light flowing across the surface of the bronze feather, though seemingly rough, gives the impression of immense value.
Tang Zheng's gaze shifted, and he easily saw the familiar characters on the bronze feather.
Is this Runes?
There are only two possibilities for items containing Runes.
One type is Runecraft Item made by Dwarf, and the other is a game item called "YGGDRASIL," where the Runes on it is merely decorative.
"However, that's not possible now."
Zesshi Zetsumei put away the Bronze Feather Necklace on his hand again. "It seems you won't stay in the Theocracy."
Tang Zheng Zhengyi finally understood the reason for this inexplicable behavior.
"Pity."
Tang Zheng smiled helplessly at the Zesshi Zetsumei artifact, "It should be a very precious magical item."
As the strongest second-in-command in the [Black Scripture] side story, Zesshi Zetsumei is responsible for guarding the place where the Six Great Gods' Equipment of the Sanctuary slumber.
The item delivered personally by the other party is very likely Six Great Gods' Legacy.
Before the meeting, the Six Cardinals clearly believed that the outcome would not change, so they brought out precious items.
He used it as a gift to win over the hearts of the people by pledging allegiance to the Theocracy.
"What's that cube in your hand? Is it a prop too?" Tang Zheng asked, feigning curiosity.
"No."
Dong Si Dong Ming Rubik's Cube's hand retracted slightly, looking quite concerned.
Is that so?
Tang Zheng looked thoughtful. "It must be a very sophisticated structure. You could try selecting a colored block in the middle and then rotating the same colored block to the back to perform this operation."
Tang Zheng told Jue Si Dongming some simple rules and techniques.
"Ha~"
Dong Si Dong Ming's eyes turned cold as he stared at Tang Zheng for a moment, then his hands moved swiftly as he began to spin the Rubik's Cube.
Time passed little by little.
Inside the church, apart from the occasional arguments coming from the meeting hall deep within the rainbow, the only other sound was the "click-clack" of the Rubik's Cube turning in front of them.
Tang Zheng's eye twitched a few times.
He discovered that Dongsi Dongming was really not suited to playing with this kind of toy, and even with his previous medical examination and instructions, he still felt resentful.
The Rubik's Cube, a puzzle toy we often played with in our past lives, is a bit complicated at first, but once you find the trick, you can quickly flip all six sides out.
This will take approximately 20 minutes.
With the rotation of the last piece, under the slender fingers of Dong Si Dong Ming, the six faces of the Rubik's Cube were perfectly aligned.
The six-stretch Rubik's Cube came to a stop in the small palm of my hand.
A barely perceptible smile appeared on Zesshi Dongming's lips, but then his eyes instantly turned even colder.
Whoosh!
He grabbed the Cross-Spear War Scythe leaning against the wall with one hand.
With Zesshi Zetsumei grip on the end of the blade, Jue Si Jue Ming flashed and instantly appeared in front of Tang Zheng, the sharp blade pressed against Tang Zheng's neck.
"Hey, I just helped you."
Tang Zheng originally thought that helping Dong Si and Dong Ming to solve the Rubik's Cube would improve his impression of Dong Si, but he never expected the other party to suddenly turn on him.
This kind of personality is truly unfathomable!
"Oh, so what?" Dong Si Dong Ming replied indifferently, "This toy has no value to me anymore."
"How will you compensate me? With your life?"
