Is this true?
Bertha looked at the video on her phone and handed it to Robin.
The latter looked at the screen thoughtfully, then nodded solemnly.
"In my experience, this is indeed true."
"Doesn't that mean..."
"Yes."
Robin's expression was grim, which meant that the city lord's side had suddenly gained tremendous strength!
The resistance was rapidly developing, accumulating strength and waiting for the right opportunity.
But if we continue to wait, the city lord's strength will actually increase faster than theirs.
"We cannot sit idly by and wait to die."
Robin took out a telephone that looked like an old man's and dialed a number.
"We are already aware of the situation."
A voice came from the other side.
"So what do we do now?"
"Wait a minute, this might be bait. We need to verify it. Wait for our contact this afternoon."
"good."
After a brief exchange, Robin gave Bertha a reassuring look.
"Why would such a video suddenly appear?" Bertha asked, still a little uneasy. "Could it be related to that Qin Sheng we met?"
"Qin Sheng..."
Robin shook his head: "I don't know."
They were just a small squad leader in the resistance and didn't have enough funds to buy information about the cult leader.
Ultimately, it's uncertain whether they would join the resistance if they had the money to buy information about the cult leader.
Meanwhile, those who had purchased information about the cult leader had also confirmed the truth.
"Lily, this is not what you said."
Opposite the large bunk bed on the top floor, a blond man leaned against the headboard, completely naked.
The Lily he was referring to was standing by the window, gazing at the extravagant city.
Her long, jet-black hair cascaded down like a waterfall, obscuring her fair back, yet glimpses of her graceful figure could be seen through the gaps in the strands.
In response to the blond man's teasing, Lilith coldly replied, "Green will never give up his personal freedom to become a believer."
"But it seems that our Lord Green has already begun to use the cultist's potion to develop his strength."
The blond man picked up a glass of wine from beside the bed and swirled the scarlet liquid inside: "It's true."
As he spoke, he took a small bite, and his expression suddenly changed.
With a "plop," red liquid sprayed all over the sheets. The blond man exclaimed incredulously, "This is...blood?"
Lilith didn't even turn her head, and said calmly, "I told you, don't touch my wine glass."
A black thread had somehow wrapped around the blond man's neck; with a gentle pull, the wine glass was half full.
Something seemed to be wrapped around the wine glass, bringing it to Lilith's hand.
"Grimm... what are you going to do?" Lilith squinted as she savored the freshly brewed wine.
At that moment, the "Master Green" he mentioned was discussing something in the conference room.
“We need to think about what will happen after this is over,” Green said in a deep voice, looking at the two venerable ones.
No one doubted Qin Sheng's ability to defeat the resistance, but it was hard to say who would ultimately own Dream Desire City after that.
"Should we call in outside help?" Boshard suggested.
"Master Qin, are we going to go find Hua Kongcheng?" Dale asked quietly.
Green nodded silently. They couldn't possibly go to Hualong City to call for outside help, even if Qin Sheng caused a huge uproar here.
Because of the system in Hualong City, the average person in Mengyu City is sentenced to death, and this Dale who works in "medicine" next to him would die a thousand or eight hundred times over.
"In Eastern parlance, it's easy to invite a god, but difficult to send him away," Green said, rubbing his temples.
“Perhaps, we can’t do anything about it, but others might be,” Boshard reminded him.
Dale seemed to remember something and looked at Green.
Green was silent for a moment, then shook his head: "Lilith... never mind."
"Scared?" Boshad said with a playful tone, "You were helped to become the city lord back then."
Green said calmly, "It's just a deal."
"Great deal!" Dale exclaimed. "Here, you really can buy anything with money."
“Let’s not talk about her anymore.” Green said somewhat discontentedly, “The old city lord is already dead at her hands. It’s better for me to take office than for her to take office.”
"Alright, then we can only keep waiting until Leader Qin doesn't think much of us." Dale shook his head, there was nothing he could do.
"Then I'll be going now."
Boshard waved and disappeared from the room.
"Why not use such a talented person?"
Boshard muttered something to himself and stopped on the rooftop: "Daller, it seems you think so too."
Dale's figure appeared, and he spread his hands, saying, "As expected of an old buddy, I'll leave it to you in the future."
"Okay, get the heart I asked for last time as soon as possible."
"Even if we hurry, it won't help. The rebels are watching us, and we can't do business anymore."
Boshard thought of the recent situation at the casino and shook his head.
The influence of the resistance has begun to emerge, not only targeting the illicit industries but also secretly promoting moral principles, gradually leading some people to break free from their extravagant lifestyles.
Fortunately, they won't last long, but in the long run, the outcome may not be good either.
"Lilith."
A knock sounded on the door, and a pleasant voice came from inside.
"Enter."
Boshard pushed open the door and entered. Lilith, dressed in a black silk nightgown, was sitting lazily on the sofa.
An angelic face paired with a succubus-like figure always gives people a strange feeling, as if she is too beautiful to be human.
There was no fluctuation in his emerald green pupils, as if he had long anticipated that someone would come.
"You still understand people's hearts so well."
"I don't understand people's hearts, I only understand Green."
Bosted sat opposite him, not glancing at the possible glimpse of what lay beneath Bosted's crossed legs, and went straight to stating the purpose of his visit.
"I see."
Lilith watched the wine sloshing in her glass. Sure enough, Green wouldn't give up on himself, because he loved himself too much.
Having switched legs, she joked, "Your city lord wouldn't send you to find me, would he?"
"That's right, but the situation is getting a bit out of control now."
Lilith nodded, a deep sense of apprehension flashing in her eyes: "Qin Sheng, I have to commend you for your audacity."
"We have no other choice."
“Yes,” Lilith winked. “You can come find me.”
"hehe."
"You really have no sense of romance."
Boshard glanced at the corpse on the bed and suggested that she dispose of the scene first before saying that.
“I understand the situation, but,” Lilith tossed a strand of hair, a hint of playfulness in her voice, “why should I help you?”
“I may promise you that you will be the next city lord.”
Boshard paused, "Provided that the rules of Dream City are not violated, and you know about the City Lord's privileges, so you should need it."
Lilith nodded: "That's certainly tempting, but not enough."
What else do you want?
"I want you."
Boshard frowned and sighed, "No wonder Dale ran so fast."
Lilith handed him the glass, and Bosted slid his skin open, letting drops of blood drip into it.
