Armor-Piercing Munition: Face Me, Carbon-Based Monster!-Chapter 256 - 106 Infiltration_2
Chapter 256: Chapter 106 Infiltration_2
As his voice fell, Zeng Yi’s expression changed.
He had actually seen similar books before.
Although not the same content, the way of "twisted knowledge" was almost identical!
"It should be the latter."
Zeng Yi said gravely:
"I have also seen similar things in the archives of the Holy Blood Temple. At that time, I thought these things were passed down from before the cataclysm."
"But after seeing the true tomes at the 7025, 011 fortifications, I realized it was not the case at all."
"It seems someone deliberately modified the knowledge....?"
"What is their purpose in doing this?"
"I don’t know."
He Shuo shook his head and replied:
"But if that’s truly the case, it must be a serious issue."
"Who did this and what is their purpose?"
"The history of the 300 years after the apocalypse is indeed not so simple... if we want to find the answer....."
"We need to find a recorder that has never been interrupted."
"Mountain City."
Zeng Yi spoke understandingly, and He Shuo nodded silently.
Just then, the prayers on the first floor of the Great Book Collection suddenly stopped, and then, everyone left the Great Book Collection one after another.
"It’s time."
He Shuo said:
"The drone returns to the base station to charge, waiting..."
"Not yet!"
Zeng Yi interrupted He Shuo and then said:
"Someone came in."
"Captain, the camera pans to the left."
"Understood."
He Shuo immediately took action, and as the camera finished focusing, the silhouette entering the Great Book Collection appeared before them.
"Jin Cheng!"
....
At this time, on the third underground level of the Great Book Collection.
Jin Cheng relaxedly sat in his unique wooden armchair, often exhaling deeply, then said to the black-clothed archbishop beside him:
"Now, only here can I truly speak without any reservations."
"Hiding and performing is more difficult and tiring than managing an entire church."
"Even in the Holy Hall, facing other bishops, I dare not have a moment’s relaxation."
"I always need to pretend to be in close cooperation with those heretics, and even propagate their achievements to those ignorant congregants...."
"It truly disgusts me."
"What’s even more unpleasant is that they are even questioning me."
"Especially those so-called ’loyalists’, who are always clamoring to stop negotiating with the heretics and to completely break with them..."
"Are these people fools?"
"Do they not understand the way of keeping a low profile?"
"The enemy is strong while we are weak; before we truly hold any trump cards that can oppose the enemy, on what basis do we act ’tough’?"
"I even suspect that these people have ill intentions from the start, just to sway my control over the church..."
After Jin Cheng finished speaking, the black-clothed archbishop first nodded, then spoke hesitantly:
"Perhaps...they are just driven by faith in the Holy Trinity."
"They are not in your position and naturally do not have to consider your problems."
"They see only the blasphemy of the heretics against the Holy Trinity, but fail to see the compromises you make for your faith."
"But it doesn’t matter, history will prove everything."
"When the heretics are destroyed and the Divine Sect endures, they will realize the tremendous accomplishments you have achieved."
"I hope so."
Jin Cheng nodded slowly and then said:
"In any case, unless you are here, you must always maintain ’respect’ for those heretics."
"They monitor the entire city, even a slightest anomaly will be quickly discovered by them."
"And once our true intentions are exposed, the entire Divine Sect will face a great catastrophe."
"Say nothing wrong, do nothing wrong; every order you issue must also have a reasonable explanation."
"The disaster caused by the 12th Guard Brigade in Jurong Town has already been a warning.... have you thought about how to explain it?"
"I have already drafted a report and am preparing to submit it to the office of the Huaxia Army in Jinling City."
The archbishop replied:
"I explained the motive for the Guard Brigade’s attack on the monster, focusing on why they abandoned entering the city and temporarily engaged the monster."
"This is in fact the biggest doubt — I believe those of the Huaxia Army have already noticed this doubt."
"However, our explanation is very comprehensive."
"The Yanling City where the 12th Guard Brigade is located was indeed attacked by monsters, and their return route coincides with the monster’s migration route."
"We can explain this incident as an urgent reinforcement, with solid evidence, it should be able to persuade them."
"Very well."
Jin Cheng pondered for a moment and then said:
"Add one more thing to the report."
"Request the Huaxia Army to send reinforcements to assist in receiving the affected refugees."
"This will make our actions appear more credible, and on the other hand, we can also take this opportunity to drain their energy."
"The number of refugees is considerable, and they have only over a hundred people."
"I believe, they cannot easily solve the refugee problem..."
"As you wish."
The archbishop bowed slightly, while Jin Cheng sat up straight and opened a thick tome already spread out in front of him.
After quietly flipping through a few pages, he continued to speak:
"The records left from more than a hundred years ago are still too vague. Even with the oral accounts of successive Saints, it is not easy to figure out the patterns of beast tides."
"But at least it can be confirmed that the beast tide is indeed on the verge of eruption."
"The death of a second-level monster has already left the Jinling Ruins in a vacuum state; next, more monsters will migrate in this direction."
"We need to add fuel to the fire.... but how to do so is still a problem."
"Jin Feng, what do you think?"
"I do not know much either."
The archbishop sighed and shook his head, saying:
"Perhaps the most prudent way is to continue executing the current plan."
"The rise of the beast tide has many different stages, and so far, it has not even met the conditions of the first stage."
"Rather than acting blindly, we should patiently wait."
"Finish everything we can do, and leave the rest to time."
"Indeed."
Jin Cheng helplessly chuckled and leaned back in his chair.
After a moment of silence, he suddenly asked again:
"Do you think the beast tide can really wipe out these heretics completely?"
"Even though I know the beast tide is incredibly powerful, there’s always some uneasiness in my heart."
"The greatest strength of the Huaxia Army is not in their combat power, but in their potential."
"They hold too many things that even we cannot comprehend."
"The intelligent machinery controlled by the Mechanical Soul, powerful weapons capable of long-range attacks...."
"If these things develop to the ultimate, perhaps the beast tide....."
"Do not worry, Sir."
The archbishop interrupted Jin Cheng for the first time, then comforted:
"The beast tide will utterly destroy their Mechanical Souls, just as the Mimic Heretics in Chang’an did."
"Without the assistance of the Mechanical Soul, how much combat power do they really have left?"
"Their fate will not be much better than that of the Mimic Heretics, perhaps even worse."
"Although the Mimic Heretics also rely on the Mechanical Soul, they are not completely dependent on it like they are."
"Sir, rest assured."
"They will not survive long."
"Perhaps they do not understand why we chose this path."
"But if any of them survive, maybe, they will choose to embrace the Holy Trinity..."
"I hope so."
Jin Cheng responded.
He slowly exhaled, then stood up and walked towards the exit of the third layer of the Great Book Collection. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
Behind him, that tome documenting the "beast tide" from 150 years ago remained spread on the table.
Perhaps, he would never imagine that just under 3 meters above his head, there was a small "hummingbird" quietly hovering....
