Chapter 415: Defense and Counterattack
"I'm sorry. Please inform Mr. Hutton that due to some accidents, we have to start the plan in advance."
After finishing the investigation of Julius, Hazel immediately visited Grammer, the right-hand man of the Hutton family, to inform him of the temporary changes one by one.
Since this is an extraordinary time, Mr. Hutton is not willing to come out in person to meet an extraordinary person who is not loyal to him.
It was Grammer who was still meeting Hazel.
Thanks to Hazel's identity, they could finally talk indoors.
Not all members of the Sacred Heart Friendship Society know what Konoe is doing. Those members with lower wealth can only get some vague notifications. There are only five people who are actually in charge, and three of these five people are from the local top. The powerful Hutton, Basby and Orlanster families formed a small alliance within this large alliance and controlled the real power of Weiaud, so when they could make decisions almost independently without the need for Ask other Sacred Heart Friends for their opinions.
The Hutton family has ties to the military, and without their support, Weiaud's violent actions may expand without a bottom line.
Today, the head of the Hutton family is holding a grand banquet, inviting the middle- and high-level officers stationed locally to enjoy themselves in his mansion. The smell of food and wine is clearly visible from across the floor.
For a long time, these lavish clubs and extravagant banquets appeared frequently in Hazel's dreams. He couldn't help but glance at the ceiling where the music was coming from.
Grammer said cheerfully: "We already know, now please explain the reason, Mr. Hazel, it's better to hurry up, because we have to deal with the consequences of this reckless act now. Mr. Hutton is talking to those respectable officers We discussed this matter, but you didn’t notify us when you dealt with those monsters, let alone them, and now they are very dissatisfied. "
"Nigel is dead. He is the best assassination expert among the guards. Without him, our actions cannot be hidden from those non-humans."
"Oh, you should have informed us earlier."
"I'm ashamed to say that we didn't know he was so important before." Hazel said: "When we hunted a monster, we couldn't kill it cleanly, causing it to escape. That's why we had to ask Deputy Mayor Turro O Mr. Lanster took the lead and attacked and killed those who dared to attend the banquet."
Although he has the official position of deputy mayor, Mr. Turro Oranst still prefers to use his own people to do things instead of contacting the military to handle the matter.
Grammer also knew the gentleman's temperament, so he did not continue to ask questions.
"This is not a big deal, but don't let it happen again. We have been helping Mr. Busby keep an eye on the movements of the Conglione family. You should be more serious."
Hazel promised so, and then took the opportunity to bring up the werewolf clan.
For some unknown reasons, Jeremy Busbey was unwilling to let his people contact the Conlione family, but instead asked the Hutton family to resolve the matter.
"We have arranged for an insider to be in their family. He is already a blood relative of theirs. They will not doubt him. The information will be passed back after a while."
Grammer didn't seem to be happy that things went so smoothly. He paused: "The abandoned field in the Berda Labick dock area has always been a training ground for these beasts to practice fighting. Half a month ago, they got off the ground in the city. There is a large order for processing iron bars, and the shape looks like they are going to build some huge cages. I really can’t figure out what kind of beast they have to transport.”
Hazel said calmly: "This may be the Conglione family's trump card - a few old werewolves. Don't worry about this, whether it is them or the helpers they have found from other places, the army's guns and cannons can solve it they."
Grammer's hidden uneasiness disappeared, and he smiled and nodded again.
"It is not easy to exterminate them, but they are also intelligent creatures after all. They know how to choose what is beneficial to themselves. It is never a wise move to be enemies of the Sacred Heart Friendship Society. It is better for everyone to evacuate the city. Maybe when they understand this One point and we can win without a fight.”
"Then it depends on the will of Heavenly Father." Hazel also smiled.
The time for worship has passed, but there are still many "people" in the Severbusch Cathedral in the southern district of Veody. They are local dark descendants, and some of them have achieved good status and achievements in society, but After learning about the actions of the Sacred Heart Friendship Association, he fled in a hurry and took refuge in this holy place.
According to ancient custom, this is a place of refuge where no one can harm the seeker.
But they were still restless, pacing back and forth, waiting for the priest to notify the bishop of the church to come forward.
There are some armed men from the Guards outside the church. They hold guns and wait impatiently for the prey inside to come out. They do believe in religion, but when faith and wealth conflict, they don't mind temporarily converting.
Seeing so many gunmen gathered outside, passers-by consciously stayed away from the place. The solemn atmosphere made the clergy in the church begin to feel uneasy.
Although the power of the church is strong, it is manifested at the macro level. These low-level priests do not have enough power to stabilize the situation. If someone wants to break in with a gun, they will never be able to stop him. All they can rely on is that the guards' respect for religion will not let the situation deteriorate into a violent conflict.
But the church has been inevitably involved in this conflict, because the clergy cannot expel these non-human beings who ask for asylum.
They are not only dark descendants, but also visitors, devout believers, and lenders to the church bank. When they gather together, the church clergy cannot turn a blind eye to them.
The bishop, accompanied by a priest, walked through the streets outside and walked slowly towards the church under the vulture eyes of the gunmen.
"We need to express our position, Bishop." The accompanying priest supported the bishop to prevent the old man from falling.
"Nothing to say or not, son. Since there are no new orders from the throne, it is business as usual. Let the guards keep a distance from our guests until this storm passes." The old bishop had white hair, eyebrows and lips. He is bald, and although his figure has shrunk a bit, his skin is still fair and smooth, which is rare for a ninety-year-old man.
They entered the church and brought peace back to a place filled with chaos and unrest.
Facing these inhuman faces, the old man announced his decision loudly: "You don't need to worry, just like in the past thousands of years, the church is still a refuge for those who want to convert."
All the darkspawn breathed a sigh of relief.
"Then can the church stop the persecution of us by the Sacred Heart Fraternity?" asked a dark descendant. "This isn't even seeking revenge, they are robbing us! This is against the laws of the Kingdom!"
The bishop looked at him kindly: "I will contact the bishops of other dioceses to deal with this matter, but I don't guarantee that other brothers and sisters will think so."

Silverbusch Cathedral belongs to the Yellow Light Society, a white sect that worships the yellow phase of the sun. Bai Jiao believes that among the three phases of the sun, the white phase is the pure and supreme power of the sky, the red phase is the masculine power symbolizing destruction, and the yellow phase is the feminine power representing tolerance and nurturing. In the past, the clergy had disagreements over the order of the three phases and launched several purge movements until the throne mediated through the holy law and created the only society of the three phases.
But the birth of the Three Phases Unique Society does not mean that the sects that worship the three phases have disappeared, they still exist.
Among the believers of the Three Phases, the Yellow Light Society, which worships the Yellow Phase, is the most tolerant of non-human beings. This is why these dark descendants choose to come to Silverbusch Cathedral for help.
But sects other than the Yellow Light Society may not want to get involved in the struggle between the Dark Ones and the Friends of the Sacred Heart.
This should have been expected, but the darkspawn were still frustrated. They have stayed in human society for too long, established businesses that are more prosperous than most humans, and have never been short of taxes. They believe that they are already an indispensable part of this country and have never imagined that they would be as isolated and helpless as they are today.
How could someone deal with them without following the rules? !
Fires of shock and anger burned in their hearts, and to avenge the unpleasant feeling they made an unsolicited proposal.
"We are willing to donate tribute to this church in double amounts in the future. We only hope that we can establish a closer cooperative relationship to prevent such ignorant people from persecuting us in the name of religion in the future."
Hearing this, the old man had a very bright smile on his face.
At this moment, a gunshot suddenly sounded outside the church. It was unknown where the gunshot was fired, but everyone in the church looked as if the bullet had been hit in front of their feet, and the exciting atmosphere was stagnant.
The old bishop shook off the priest's hand, straightened his back, walked quickly to the podium, and pressed his palm on it.
As an ancient contract came into effect, more than a dozen gargoyles lying on the outer walls and eaves of the church began to tremble. They were reincarnated from the dead, shaking off the hard shells of dust accumulated on their bodies for countless years, and appeared in high spirits. Standing, the rock-hard body made a dull collision sound just by moving.
Seeing this strange scene, the guards outside the church also retreated.
This scene was sensed by the dark descendants, and they all lamented that the deal was worth the money.
Besides this sacred place, there is also a place full of blasphemy that provides temporary refuge for the darkspawn.
The followers of the lustful demon god Ainat provide a secret residence for the dark descendants. This is also the place where they usually hold witch meetings. It is difficult for outsiders to find this place.
Because the requirements for membership include the trial of torma, the participants of the Wicca Club are not tolerated by various forces. They usually need to gather in secret. Once they are found to have been deeply involved in the activities of the Wiccan Club, even a cardinal and archbishop They will also be sentenced to excommunication within the church.
