This kind of forced bribery can even be done more quietly. Rawls can deliberately leave something to a certain target, and the bribery effect can also be achieved. There is not even a distance limit, as long as the "bribery" cast on the thing
Didn't dissipate.
For example, Rawls threw a one-pound note on the road in the East End and cast "bribery-association" on the note. The person who picked up the note will establish a connection with him and can sense his location within a certain range.
specific location.
Although Rawls can do this with the "Fog of Uncertainty", it is only possible through the "lawyer" and "arbitrator" channels. As long as you have met him and had a short period of contact, you can also sense it.
The trajectory of his movement was very small, only fifty or sixty meters away at most.
However, the scope of "bribery-association" is much larger, and the lucky person selected can be locked within at least 1000 meters.
However, this mystical connection has a certain time limit, and it will gradually weaken and disappear after about half an hour. Perhaps when Rawls becomes the "Baron of Corruption" or the "Mentor of Chaos", the effect will be even more powerful.
Similarly, Rawls's extraordinary abilities about "lawyers" and "barbarians" have also been improved to a certain extent: the "lawyer"'s ability to use eloquence to distort the target's thinking has been enhanced. No more words are needed to persuade, and it can be done within a few sentences.
Complete the twist.
The "barbarian"'s "mad transformation" lasts longer, from the original four minutes (because the digestion of the magic potion is completed, the time is changed from three minutes to four minutes) to six minutes, and the time of the weak state after "mad transformation" is also
will decrease.
This change directly led to a slight improvement in Rawls's physique. His height is still maintained at 1.83 meters. After the "crazy transformation", he can increase by 2-3 centimeters.
"Congratulations, you have become the 'briber' of Sequence 7."
Rawls turned to look at Alicia. Although she said congratulations, her tone did not have any congratulations at all, which was completely consistent with her wax figure-like face.
Alicia stood up from the lame chair. The chair did not maintain balance like last time, but instantly fell to the ground. The complicated, simple and asymmetrical dress on her body naturally hung down.
"It's just Sequence 7. You must know that in the Fourth Era, or even the early Fifth Era, the Sequence 7 Extraordinaries were only low-Sequence Extraordinaries. It was only in the past few hundred years that the number of Extraordinaries has been declining, so the Church of the Seven Gods
Sequence 7 is classified as mid-sequence."
Rawls corked the bottle of Olmir worth 130 pounds and placed it on the table. He also placed the beaker, dropper and reagent bottles containing auxiliary materials on the bed into the cabinet without a door.
.
Yes, due to the placement of the desk and bed, he prepared the potion on the bed. Apart from the main ingredients, both colors of datura juice have hallucinogenic effects and can even cause death, so it is better to get it early
It's better to open.
Alicia looked at Rawls who was collecting the materials, and her eyebrows moved slightly. She was not clear about the division of the church, but this was inconsistent with the statements passed down from the Fourth Age or Tamara.
"The 'briber' is a mid-ranked person, the 'interrogator' is not, and the 'judge' is a mid-ranked person."
Rawls suddenly stopped making the bed, turned to look at Alicia, and said doubtfully:
"Is this how to divide the Quaternary Period?"
Seeing Alicia nodding, Rawls frowned slightly. He also had similar thoughts. Not every path of the twenty-two paths to God will have powerful abilities at a fixed stage, but only in a certain sequence.
It will burst out suddenly and use all kinds of strange methods.
At this stage, almost all are stable at Sequence 7 or Sequence 6. For example, Klein's "Fool" path, "Soothsayer" and "Joker" all have very single methods of dealing with enemies, while "Magician" has many more methods.
The same is true for Rawls's own "Black Emperor" path. The "lawyer" has no combat effectiveness at all, the "barbarian" method is too single, and the "briber" has a single ability, but it is very effective against the enemy.
He even suspected that "bribery" would be effective on beings with certain intelligence, such as evil spirits and resentful souls, but living corpses that relied solely on instinct would not be effective. Being intelligent means that you can communicate, and "bribery" is naturally a part of communication.
kind.
Each sequence of each path implies the essence of that path. After a certain stage of accumulation, the core capabilities of that path are touched, and the combat effectiveness will be greatly improved.
The essence of "bribery" is to use rules and distort the target's thinking. Because bribery may not be achieved in reality, but Rawls's "bribery" is mandatory, and there is no need to deliberately collect target information to confirm that he likes it.
What, what should I give as a gift?
After tidying up the bed, Rawls sat on the bed, looked at Alicia who also sat down and asked:
"Do you have any good suggestions about playing the role of 'bribery'?"
Tamara once served the Tudor Empire, and the Tudor family controls the "Black Emperor" path. There should be some suggestions about the role of "briber" that can be applied to Rawls.
Alicia balanced the lame stool again, and a trace of thought flashed in her dark gray eyes. After believing in the "Uncertain Mist" again, the Tamara family also began to study the "lawyer" path. Unfortunately,
Since the Tudor family itself has inherited Tudor's crazy bloodline, they are cunning, cunning, and cautious, and are wary of the five nobles.
In addition, some members of the Tamara family had converted to Antigonus, and some members of the clan died in babble. In the process of evading pursuit and the influence of babble, a lot of information was lost, which made the Tamara family have no idea about the "lawyer" path.
Little is known about it, but some of the content can be inferred through the abilities gained by the favored ones of the "Uncertain Mist".
There are also some things that can be inferred from historical records. In the Tudor Empire, many Tudor people will cause a lot of scandals in the "briber" stage. They will entangle a group of people with slightly stronger status than them to plot against them.
A certain being with a higher status in this group of people was knocked to the ground by the being who had been prepared for it.
"Get along with people in high positions."
"A high-ranking person?"
Rawls put his right hand into a fist in front of his mouth. He seemed to have some ideas about Alicia's suggestion. Why would there be bribery? Because there is something to ask for from the other party, and most people who can help him must be
An existence with a higher status than oneself.
Of course, maybe his status is not as high as yours, but when you take the initiative to ask for help, he is the one with the highest status. Only bribing them is a bribe in the true sense.
But bribery also requires methods. You need to inquire about the other party's information and know the other party's preferences before you can make an appropriate bribe. This is like giving a gift. The other party is an eighty-year-old old lady who has lost all her teeth. You send her a piece of ribs.
It will only lead to scolding.
What's more important is that what you pay must be less than what you get. Giving away 80 pounds and getting back 100 pounds is considered a successful bribe. This is just a metaphor. After all, sometimes what is given is money and what is gained is relationships.
As long as this relationship is used in the right place, the harvest will be great.
"You can try to make a talisman first. Follow the normal method of making talismans. Just change the object of prayer to Him."
When Alicia's voice sounded again, Rawls raised his head. There was no one in front of him, and the lame chair lost its balance again and fell to the ground.
…
West District, Intis Embassy in Loen.
Ambassador Backlund, whose stubble has grown to two or three centimeters long, is wearing an Intis-style floral shirt that he hasn't changed for a long time. The white collar and cuffs have turned gray-black. The strong body odor can no longer be covered up by the incense in the office.
Anyone who comes near the desk will cover their nose and run away quickly.
Backlund had his legs crossed, his feet wearing leather shoes were propped up on the desk, and he was holding a half-drunk bottle of Ronzi in his hand. His face was obviously dizzy from alcohol, and he looked decadent to death.
Since what happened on Saturday night, the Intis Embassy in Loen has become the core focus of all Backlund's intelligence personnel.
That night, the Archbishop of the Backlund Diocese of the Church of Steam and Machinery, Sequence 4 "Alchemist" Horamik Haydon, flew from the St. Hillan Church in the St. George District with the help of a steam backpack on his back, carrying a strong wind and roaring
embassy.
But it was already too late, the bottle containing the mysterious mist was snatched away, and the military attache left behind in the embassy suffered different injuries because the ceremony was destroyed; Sequence 5 "Secret Puppet Master" Rosago encountered the demigod head-on.
Immediately knocked into a coma; although the hands of the team led by the chief military attache to hunt down the members of the Spiritual Religion were not injured, a Sequence 7 "Weapon Master" was damaged.
Outside the embassy, a team of Nighthawks and several Red Gloves blocked the door. Although they were protected by diplomatic treaties, they could not rush in directly, but they had no intention of leaving. They waited until the MI9 people arrived before evacuating.
. But not long after the evacuation, the "Goddess Sword" of the Church of the Night, Crestel Sesima, rented a carriage and parked in front of the embassy.
Later, a deputy director of MI9 even wanted to enter the embassy in the name of an entourage of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Had he not been suddenly called back, Backlund's situation would have only been worse.
However, fortunately, Archbishop Horamik, out of consideration for "craftsman" Mr. Bergman, arranged some ritual magic for the embassy, and even directly asked the "Sword of the Goddess" to return to the Church of the Night, so that Peeping Intis Embassy
The people did not take the opportunity to cause trouble.
Although the people on the surface have withdrawn, the "conspirator" Beckron knew that this happy man was just lurking nearby. In the past two days, Beckron received more than fifty invitations, all inviting him to attend the banquet.
The aristocratic ladies and young ladies who had had sex with him also secretly sent letters to inquire, but he rejected them all because of physical discomfort.
The domestic accountability telegram from Intis arrived yesterday, asking him to prepare for the handover and wait for the arrival of the next ambassador. Intis's General Administration of External Security also sent a telegram, asking him to remove all traces and stop all secret activities.
Cooperate with the next ambassador and return after completing the work.
But why would Backlund be willing to go back directly? The embassy was forcibly broken into under his leadership, and I'm afraid his fate wouldn't be much better if he went back.
In order to save his fate, he first released the news that he was unwell, and then pretended to be drunk and decadent to confuse those who secretly monitored the embassy. In fact, he secretly sent "Secret Puppet Master" Rosago to inquire about a certain information.
True or false, only that news can save him.
Now only Rosago in the embassy can enter and leave the embassy by changing into someone else's appearance, and Rosago also wants to use this matter to regain the goodwill of the old guys in the Secret Order in exchange for the formula of "The Magician"
, so he endured his injuries and went out to find out the news.
With a "squeak" sound, the office door was pushed open.
An old man wearing a classic black robe and a soft hat with white beard and hair and sparse eyebrows walked in. He looked at the drunken Backlund, and a trace of ridicule appeared on his wrinkled face.
Backlund squinted his eyes. When he saw the mockery, his eyes widened and he spit out the stench of alcohol in his mouth:
"Rosago? Are you back?"
"How did you recognize me?" "Bergman" had a puzzled look on his old face. He always had enough trust in his disguise, especially when pretending to be someone he knew well enough.
Backlund burped. In order to pretend he was drunk, he indeed drank a lot. He waved his limp arms:
"Stop thinking about this and tell me quickly, is that news true or false?" In the past, Backlund would still have the patience to deal with Rosago, but now he has no time or energy to do this.
.
Rosago did not change into herself, but still maintained the appearance of Bergman, her sparse eyebrows furrowed, and she fiddled with the silver necklace with amethyst hanging on her chest:
"That news is probably true."
A flash of anger flashed across Backlund's drunken face. He was in no mood to mess with Rosago. He stood up, placed the bottle heavily on the table, and shouted in a hoarse voice:
"I want to know if it's true or not! Don't tell me 'maybe'!"
Rosago held the amethyst on her chest tightly with her right hand, a hint of sarcasm flashed through her cloudy eyes, and she slowed down her speech as if thinking:
"I think it's true. I saw Zerrell's 'boy scouts' there. Fusac's side should also start investigating."
"Zeriel?" The alcohol made Backlund's mind a little sluggish, and he couldn't remember what the relationship between this guy and Fusac was for a moment.
Rosago, who was in charge of intelligence, quickly reported Zerrell’s identity information:
"Zeriel Victor Lee, on the surface, is a private detective, but in fact he is a Fusac intelligence agent. He has a group of 'boy scouts' in his hands and can get some special information."
"I remember him."
Backlund shook his head, trying his best to wake up, but it only made him more dizzy. He covered his forehead and sat down, rubbing his temples with his left hand. Fusac had been secretly infiltrated by Backlund within Intis's intelligence organization.
, has mastered a large number of intelligence spies, and Zerrell and the group of half-grown children under him are relatively capable.
"So, Turanni von Hermoshuen's third-generation difference engine manuscript has really appeared. Send it immediately, no, use the ceremony to transmit the message." He couldn't make any mistakes now.
"Are you sure? I'm not sure yet."
Backlund swept his arm and knocked over the bottle:
"We...we don't have time...if we wait any longer, the new ambassador will be on his way."
