Chapter 1488 Fishing in troubled waters and taking the initiative to blow up the beard!
Sha...Shado?
The man lying on the ground, the man who had just lost his lower body with a fire fist...
Is it the foreign priest from the Benlei tribe...Shado?
Somo was stunned for a moment. His first reaction was that it was dark and Thomas was blinded, or that he was hallucinating because he had always regarded Shado as an imaginary enemy.
However, Huang Xiangyu's trembling speech soon verified Thomas's judgment again.
"Clan...chief, this big bald head...is that? He is really Shado. This guy is Shado!"
Even though the opponent was already a standard dead person, the impact of this face was still too strong.
"I remember him. The last time the Benlei tribe came to plunder us, he...he was standing next to us!"
"I am certain that there will never be another person who looks like Shado, no! He is Shado!"
Shado's image as a monk in Crack No. 37 is inherently special.
Coupled with the speed of the flyby just now and the strong physical strength, Somo suddenly became a little silent.
Shado, the boss of the first level, didn't even say a single qualified line.
Just... torn to pieces by Thomas' punch?
Even in the flash of lightning, he didn't even know the person who crushed him, so only half of him was left.
This ending cannot be described in one word: miserable.
No, this is just a minor role that doesn't deserve the name. It's a waste that Sumo was still thinking about how to make plans to capture him next!
"Priest Thomas, why don't you take a closer look to see if he is Shado?"
"Okay, okay, let me confirm."
Thomas' hands and feet were trembling a little, so he quickly walked to the half-bald head and squatted down to identify it carefully.
After a few seconds, he breathed a long sigh of relief and raised his head with a complicated expression.
"Clan leader, there is no need to doubt, this guy is really... Shado!"
When did Shado become so weak? He couldn't even catch one of his own magical spells?
Is this still a gifted magician who escaped from a low-numbered crack?
No, I am too strong!
The greeting spell given to me by the clan leader is so powerful!
Feeling his body full of strength, Thomas clenched his fists and his eyes suddenly became firm.
"Chief, I feel that I am terribly strong now. How about we take advantage of this opportunity... to go directly to the Benlei Tribe and take back all the looted materials?"
"Have you taken over the Benlei Tribe?"
Look at Thomas' expression that doesn't seem to be fake and his slightly trembling body.
One thing to say.
As Shadu's identity was confirmed, the inexplicable anxiety in Somo's heart did not decrease, but instead increased.
If it was really Shado, why did he suddenly appear here?
Now the Fire Fist tribe has offended the Revenge Alliance, and has never had a direct conflict with Shado.
Could it be that the strength of the alliance and Thomas' promotion to the second level gave him the idea of defeating them separately?
The moment the idea came up, Soma immediately rejected it.
Now that the Fire Fist tribe refuses to join the Revenge Alliance, if they are killed by Shado in revenge, it will only make other tribes in the alliance in danger and forcefully increase the trust of cooperation between these people, which will be even more detrimental to the future situation of the Benlei tribe.
.
According to this idea, the purpose of Shado...
An image of the fire fist killing Shado flashed through Somo's mind, and he suddenly realized the crux of the problem.
Shaido... He seems to be too weak!
The weak one only needs Thomas, who has just advanced to the third level, to crush him with one punch.
Would the person who designed this deadly barrier place such a weak boss at such a critical point?
The answer is yes.
There must be something wrong with Shado, and his relationship with the Avengers is not as life-and-death as it seems.
In other words, the alliance formed by the seven major tribes in Zhushikeng was not the revenge they said it was.
This group of people is most likely in the same camp as Shado, so they arranged for Shado to sneak attack on the Fire Fist tribe at night, so that other people in the alliance would not dare to think about quitting.
Grass!
Sumo's eyes were serious and he realized the problem.
Failing to kill Shadu through conventional channels caused him to lose a lot of key analysis information.
For example, the purpose of Shadu, the plans of the seven tribes in Zhushikeng, and the specific information of the Benlei tribe.
However, Sumo consciously omits this information, and the problem doesn't seem to be big. He just needs to do his own thing.
And first and foremost.
Just so that no one can notice, the Fire Fist Tribe killed Shado!
Only by continuing to fish in troubled waters and see what these people are planning is the right choice right now.
"No, we are in big trouble, Huang Xiangyu... You five, hurry up and clear the battlefield!"
After coming back to his senses, Sumo immediately made arrangements.
"Priest Thomas, come with me. I need you to do something."
It is definitely difficult to fake a magical fight scene.
Even if Soma temporarily upgraded to a magical skill that Thomas did not master to conceal his identity, it would not be able to solve the fact that Shado was killed instantly without even firing a shot.
After all, you can’t even forge Shado’s share, right?
"The situation now is very complicated. I can't explain it to you in just a few words, but if we kill Shado, it will definitely be a big trouble. No one can know that we killed him under any circumstances!"
"Huh?" Thomas was a little dumbfounded.
He could kill Shado so easily, but he actually didn't know what he was doing, and he always felt like there was something wrong.
In particular, there is still no clear enough conclusion as to why Shado appears here.
"Chief, what should we do?"
"Well, I plan to take risks. Tomorrow morning, we will take half of Shado to the Revenge Alliance, and we will say that we killed Shado!"
"ah?"
Thomas had just recovered some of his IQ, but was once again dumbfounded to occupy the high ground.
Didn't you say that people can't know that we killed it? Why do we have to take it and tell everyone openly?
"It's very simple. If you were still a second-level priest, could you kill Shado?"
Thomas thought about it seriously and murmured: "If there is magical control and a sneak attack, then..."
"To get to the point, what if you only have fire fist and fire armor skills?"
"No, it is rumored that Shado has four third-level magical arts. There is absolutely no second-level priest in No. 37 Radiation Crack who can kill him head-on!"
"Then if we take Shado's body to the Alliance, will those people believe that we killed Shado?"
Sumo planned to blow up Hu.
The current situation is obvious. He doesn't know the other party's details, and the other party doesn't know his details either.
Since no one knows that Thomas has successfully promoted to the third level, and also experienced going to the mortal level, his strength has greatly increased.
Everyone's information is not equal, it just depends on who can take the initiative in this trial!
"Wonderful, wonderful!"
Thomas slapped his thigh, obviously understanding the key point.
"Moreover, we killed Shado with one blow, which makes it more confusing. I'm afraid they would rather believe that Shado fell to his death than believe that we killed him."
"You're right, instead of keeping it secretive, it's better to make this matter clear and see how the alliance handles it!"
At this time, the sky was already turning white, and there really was not much time left for the two of them to think of a better solution.
Thomas was left to think about how to make the battle exaggerated and believable.
Sumo returned to the crooked-neck tree where he had just stood, and led Huang Xiangyu and five others to briefly arrange the scene.
First, there was slush stained with flesh and blood, all shoveled and piled together.
Rather than hiding this important evidence, it is better to put it in the most conspicuous place for others to see.
Moreover, if too many people come, the evidence scene will be destroyed.
Next were the footprints of Shado running in the snow. Except for the two leading to the Fire Fist Tribe left by Soma, the rest of the footprints were all destroyed.
The extent of the damage is not complete, and you can always find clues if you look carefully.
But Somo just wanted these people to focus on such unimportant things and thus ignore the important points.
At the end, Somo turned to look at the five people.
No matter how abundant the physical evidence is, ultimately we still need the cooperation of witnesses to draw a firm conclusion.
Huang Xiangyu and the five people who witnessed the whole process are undoubtedly the most error-free part of all arrangements.
"How about... you go out and hide for a while, then come back after the limelight has passed?"
Somo asked tentatively.
There is too little information at hand, and there is not enough conclusion yet about whether devout believers can be trusted.
But what surprised Sumo was that the next second after he finished speaking, the game panel automatically popped up.
[Record]: The player ‘Suma’ and your devout believer ‘Huang Xiangyu’ have increased their faith level.
[Record]: The player ‘Suma’ and your devout believer ‘Sun Chong’ have increased their faith level.
【Record】:...
[Record]: Current faith level: Fanatic believer!
[Record]: The player ‘Suma’ has detected that the beliefs of the five fanatical believers under your command contain some imprints related to you. Due to the special influence of the identity of the gods, the level of this belief cannot be reduced.
At the critical moment, the belief levels of the five people all rose to the level of fanatical believers!
at the same time.
"Chief, don't drive me away. I can swear to God that I will keep it a secret!"
"Patriarch, don't worry, I won't say anything about what happened tonight even if I die!"
"Chief, from the day we followed the old patriarch, the Fire Fist Tribe has been our home. Please don't drive us away."
"We didn't see anything tonight, yes, we don't know anything!"
"..."
"good!"
Although the contact time is not long, the improvement in faith level is real.
Sumo nodded, appeased him for a while, and then arranged for the five of them to go back to rest first.
Tonight's harvest was rich enough. First, Thomas was promoted to level three and gained five more fanatical followers.
As long as Shado's sudden death can be properly handled next, it shouldn't be difficult to hold on until the opportunity to break the game arises.
...
Radiation Crack No. 37 has a long and narrow terrain, and the overall shape is like radioactive lightning.
Because it was located in the wasteland earthquake zone in the early years, there are many natural potholes.
Most tribes in the cracks like to build their bases in these natural pits to provide shelter from wind and rain, creating a natural geographical advantage.
The Zhushikeng Tribe, which has more than 300 people and is qualified to allocate sacred mines, is built in a pit similar in area to the Fire Fist Tribe but several times larger.
At this time, as the sky lights up.
The smoke of fireworks slowly floated out from the bamboo and stone pits, blending into the early morning mist.
As the meal was approaching, figures began to appear one after another on the path outside Zhushikeng.
"Priest Yuying!"
"Priest Li Hongfeng!"
"Priest Yin Zhe!"
"Priest Guo Ming!"
"..."
Several acquaintances met and immediately greeted each other cordially.
Moreover, everyone has a tacit understanding and does not know the true purpose of appearing here at this time.
It wasn't until Peter Young appeared at the corner of the path that this harmony was broken.
"Hey, some of the priests didn't stay in the tribe so early to have a good sleep and rest, so they came here and wanted to save some supplies for their own tribe, right?"
A dignified priest, but he had to lower his face and come over on time to have dinner.
Peter Yang tilted his lips and sneered a few words, which immediately made the faces of the priests who had just greeted him darken.
Including Yu Ying and Li Hongfeng, who had performed a mission with Peter Yang yesterday, their faces were now frighteningly dark.
It’s really a matter of which pot should not be opened.
The seven major tribes in Zhushikeng joined forces and were not plundered by the Benlei tribe, so they still had plenty of supplies.
But each of their six tribes was more miserable than the last, and they were all on the verge of running out of food.
Moreover, the revenge alliance now established forces them to report here every day.
In this case, what's wrong with just a few meals?
"What? Did you talk about your pain points?"
Peter Yang sneered and wanted to continue to find an angle to laugh at these people.
But at this moment, a loud male voice came from far away, temporarily calming down the scene.
"Priest Peter Young, why are you talking to several priests?"
"The visitors are guests, and you are all our allies. As long as you are willing to come, you are giving Zhang Tai face to me!"
It’s Zhang Tai, the priest of the Zhushikeng tribe!
According to rumors, this person is one step away from becoming a third-level priest, and he will be promoted in three months at most.
Moreover, his daughter is married to the leader of the Yunxiao Tribe. He is a rare leader of a thousand-member tribe in Crack No. 37, and he has terrifying power.
With such a strong alliance, I don't know if the Benlei tribe has lost its mind and dared to initiate an invasion.
Only then did the subsequent story of the seven major tribes around Zhushikeng unite and almost send Shadu away.
"And I believe that as long as our alliance can deal with the Benlei tribe and kill Shado, the tribes of the priests will be able to solve the current troubles they are facing immediately, right?"
"Brother Tai has a keen eye, that's right!" Li Hongfeng immediately replied with a smile.
Several other priests looked at each other and had no choice but to lower their faces and kept saying good things about Zhang Tai.
This deformed alliance.
Although it seems that everyone is working together to deal with the Benlei tribe, in fact they have different intentions.
The seven major tribes in Zhushikeng looked down upon them, the first-level priests, and calling them over was just for personal reasons.
In other words, I still have some thoughts about the Revenge Alliance killing the Benlei tribe, otherwise who would want to be so angry?
"By the way, you went to see the Fire Fist Tribe yesterday. I wonder what the result was?"
On the way to the interior of the Zhushikeng tribe, Zhang Tai suddenly turned his head and looked at Peter Yang.
"The alliance has been established, but the Fire Fist tribe has been unwilling to cooperate. It is really difficult for us to handle it."
"High Priest, it's like this..."
When asked by Zhang Tai, Peter Yang stood up helplessly and recounted what happened yesterday.
What is surprising is that Peter Yang did not add any fuel to the fire. He only concealed the fact that Thomas took action by threatening Somo, and described it as a quarrel between the two.
Such behavior made Yuying and Li Hongfeng look at him.
"So, Priest Thomas thinks that he has been promoted to the second level after all the hard work, and he is a combat-oriented priest. Does he plan to take revenge against Shado by himself?"
Zhang Tai smiled with interest.
"That Shado is a cross-river dragon from a low-numbered rift. He is very capable. Even if I am promoted to level three, I am still not sure of defeating him. I'm afraid Priest Thomas is overconfident."
"What, Priest Zhang Tai...are you at level three?"
"Ah? Level three?!"
"No wonder Priest Peter Yang calls you High Priest. Are you... successfully promoted?"
The priests instantly caught the key to Zhang Tai's words, stopped in their tracks, and looked stunned.
In the past, Thomas was promoted to the second level, and later Zhang Tai was promoted to the third level.
For everyone, this is great news when it comes to dealing with the Benlei Tribe and Shado!
