I'm Crowdfunding an Empire in Another World

"Perhaps we can establish a nation here." Under the gaze of a motley crowd, Xia Lan O'Gullos planted the Ink Sea Dragon Banner on Bolavis, which was still a desolate island. No one beli...

Chapter 117 Tamed

The conspiracy is simple, it's just deception.

——The Book of Lies and Conspiracies

In Hailong City, the black-armored knights that appear from time to time on the streets make this busy port city eerily quiet. The human heads hanging on the city walls are drying in the fine snow, and the black bloodstains tell of the past killings.

Sea Ice Flower, the secret intelligence agency of the Kingdom of Tiran, bared its fangs and swore to someone that they are not to be trifled with.

In the secret manor, Kolus was sorting the information collected by Red Suit into categories. In a cheerful mood, he enjoyed the originally boring work.

"Brother Clus, you are in a good mood. I asked you to help deliver a letter for me, but you sold the person who was supposed to deliver it. It really hurts me."

Kolus turned his head suddenly and found that a young man had appeared out of nowhere and was looking at him with a smile.

"Xia Lan Auglos, you still dare to show up? Now not only the Kingdom of Tilan is looking for you, but also the southern countries of the Western Continent. For the sake of giving me the news of the Godhead, run for your life."

Xia Lan looked at me as if I were a fool. After a long silence, she asked, "Would I give you such valuable information?"

"Are you still trying to lie to me? I've already confirmed with the Red Cover's Baltic Sea representative that the Godhead truly exists."

Koleos raised his head with a look of satisfaction. The cunning fox's scheme was full of illusions, truths and falsehoods, but he had seen through it all.

"You mean Ash Meadow? He's my fiancée's uncle."

Keluos still didn't believe it, but a bad premonition suddenly arose in his heart. Xia Lan raised the corner of his mouth and continued:

"Brother Keluos, I know you want to stand out, so you may be a little impatient, but your intelligence is fine.

As a colleague, you should know why Ash Mido joined the Red Suit. An old man who wants revenge is very scary.

Xia Lan shrugged with a hint of regret, and Keluos thought about the recent situation in the Baltic Sea and unconsciously slumped in his chair.

"But don't worry, I won't let anyone know that Red Covers is selling fake news for profit."

Xia Lan comforted him, but Keluos seemed unable to sense the outside world. Last time, the organization paid an epic weapon for public relations. Does this mean they have to pay for the godhood again this time?

"Brother Keluos, I know that the Red Cover dominates the intelligence community because of its credibility, but my identity as a magic thief has not been confirmed yet, and you have also sold it.

You see, you caused heavy damage to my church in Hailong City, and I didn't say anything.

Honestly, Red Cover is also a business organization, but their product is intelligence, so fraud is normal, and honest business will not last long.

Kolus' eyes were red as he stared at Xia Lan. Just as he drew his weapon and prepared to fight to the death, Xia Lan took out a human head from the ring and threw it at his feet.

Where have I seen this head before?

Just as Kolus was about to take a closer look, Xia Lan smiled sincerely and said:

"Brother Kolus, do you want a promotion? As long as you keep quiet about the godhood, I won't tell you, and Ash Mido won't tell you, it's definitely enough for you to advance a few levels."

When Keluos saw clearly who the head was under his feet, he felt his heart was about to jump out of his chest. Just as he was about to take action, he slumped back into the chair, pointing at Xia Lan and unable to say a word.

"That's right, I killed your boss so that I could make room for you to take over.

Don't worry, on the way here, I also killed my uncle's boss on Zilan Island. From now on, one of you will be in charge of the southern part of the Western Continent, and the other will be in charge of the western seas. I, the younger generation, can also reap the benefits."

"Madman, you madman!"

Xia Lan scratched her ears. In life, you have to have two things: promotion, wealth, and death of your boss. It’s not a big deal if two people die.

Collus discovered that this was not a cunning liar at all, but a madman. He had to run and escape from the organization!

He has gotten into big trouble, the organization will not let him go. The person who bought the divine intelligence this time is no small figure. Once the news goes viral, he will definitely die without a burial place!

"Brother Keluos, are you trying to run away? Although the red suit can't do anything, it's still easy to find someone.

You can only climb up, step by step, to become the highest, and then cover up the mess you made."

Xia Lan kicked the head away from his feet, and the smiling face made Kolus shudder.

"I've helped you get rid of the first obstacle. Now it's up to you. If you have any inside information, please tell me."

Xia Lan raised his left hand, on which were two red snake rings, which he had taken from his boss Keluos and the person in charge of the Red Set in the Western Sea.

After Xia Lan finished speaking, ripples appeared in the space around him. A small hand appeared and rested on his shoulder. Then, the man who had been smiling the whole time disappeared from Keluo's sight.

Keluos was stunned for a long time, walked to the desk in a daze and sat down. After struggling for a long time, he slowly picked up the pen with trembling fingers.

"Commander Fu Wen was assassinated by the Church of Truth. This was retaliation for me selling their intelligence in Sea Dragon City. However, I have already wiped out their base in Sea Dragon City using the Sea Ice Flower, but I haven't found the Cunning Fox yet."

"If Ash Midoriya can betray, why can't I..."

On the sea, Xia Lan hid in the clouds, dropped a letter to the fat man who was sunbathing on the deck of the sailboat below, and then left.

Roz was lying in a chair, and the fallen letter happened to float onto the plate where he put his snacks, but he seemed accustomed to such things, and he opened the letter carelessly and read ten lines at a glance.

"Has the Lord of Truth completely escaped the influence of the Golden Bean Divine Name? That's not easy.

In this case, I finally don’t have to worship gold beans anymore. Uh... I will convert to the truth tomorrow, and that crappy Golden Bean Cult will finally be finished.

After all, that fellow Keluos was tamed by the leader... no, the Pope. From now on, the continent's intelligence collection will be given to him.

I'd better find a safe place to hide, develop Black Ice Terrace, and wait for Bolavis to be recalled. Without Boss Xia Lan, the outside world is too dangerous."

As an undercover agent of the Church of Truth who infiltrated the Golden Bean Cult, Roth tried his best to create negative emotions in the believers during the years when he was in control of the Cult. However, all this is finally coming to an end. The Lord of Truth has cleared the connection with the name of the Golden Bean God, and the Golden Bean Cult is no longer necessary.

The doctrine of the Golden Bean Cult is that golden beans make people happy. This doctrine, which is full of loopholes but logically sound, gave Xia Lan a headache at first.

But fortunately, not only did Phaodis not have a complete canon, he also did not have control over the fusion of the godhead, and there was also the possibility of changing the name of God.

Phaodis's requirements are very low, as long as he can truly become a god, but Xia Lan doesn't want to believe in a third-rate lower-level god. Being a higher-level god is just the minimum requirement.

So when the name-changing plan just started, Ross was sent to the Golden Bean Cult by Xia Lan. It was not easy to manage a group of hypocritical and greedy believers, and they had to be unable to be happy when they got the golden beans. Ross could only develop the church in the model of a cult, which almost made him depressed.

Xia Lan was responsible for compiling the "Truth Canon" and developing devout believers of the truth.

Devout believers must be familiar with the scriptures and understand the doctrines clearly. City defense officer Roth and others who were killed by Hai Binghua not only did not even read the scriptures several times, but also wanted to swallow Xia Lan's goods. These people who are a trouble to others can only be sent to hell.
