Three days later.
Su Mu was eating breakfast in the manor. He had sorted out all the Pope's memories and eliminated all the garbage that was irrelevant to the extraordinary knowledge.
At this time, his loyal steward was standing beside him and reporting to him about the changes in the Chiyan Empire over the past three days.
After Su Mu's development in the imperial capital over this period of time, the intelligence network has already spread throughout the imperial capital, and the imperial capital is the intelligence center of the entire Chiyan Empire. Now, as long as he wants to know, there is nothing he doesn't know about any major or minor events that happen in the Chiyan Empire.
"Chief, these are the changes in the country after the beginning of the new era. Please take a look." The butler respectfully handed over a few pages of intelligence newspaper.
Su Mu flipped through the pages while eating.
After a long time, he picked up the white napkin and wiped his mouth.
"Human nature is always so interesting." He smiled.
The intelligence collected over the past three days can be roughly summarized in one sentence: the royal family responded actively, publicized the path to transcendence, opened the treasury, and distributed transcendental potions, while the nobles enriched themselves, engaged in reselling, and the civilians died on the front lines.
"The nobles are becoming more and more corrupt. With the crisis of world destruction ahead, they only care about their family's private interests and make money from the national crisis. They occupy the most resources and send the least soldiers. They even send their own brothers and sisters abroad to the strongest Longyuan Empire. Yes, it fits my stereotype of the nobles.
This kind of thing is definitely not unique to the Red Flame Empire. Most of the nobles in the major empires are doing the same thing."
Su Mu silently pushed the brown glasses on his face and decided to teach the nobles a lesson. Don't want to go to the front line? Just want to reap the benefits in the rear? Simple, just turn the rear into the front line.
Sending clan members abroad? Transferring property? The journey is long, so it is reasonable for something to happen along the way.
As soon as he thought of this, he had already made a plan in his mind. The survival of the world concerns everyone. Some people want to enjoy peace in troubled times, continue to be rich and prosperous, and let others die. It is not that easy.
"Now that I am about to go to the front line, it is not convenient for me to do these things myself, so I can just hand them over to the Seven Deadly Sins to handle them."
Thinking of the members of the Seven Deadly Sins, he could roughly guess their recent psychological activities. Those people had all received his favor and then joined the Seven Deadly Sins. They were not bad by nature. Now that they suddenly knew that their leader was a world-destroying devil, they might even have the idea of rebelling.
.......
.......
Bronze Casket Company.
Nangong Mengli, who was daydreaming at her desk, suddenly noticed that the light around her suddenly distorted and changed.
She was startled and took out the mithril dagger she was carrying. In just a short time of taking out the dagger, the surrounding environment became completely unfamiliar.
The diffuse white mist came into her eyes, blurry, hazy and boundless.
"This is..." Nangong Mengli looked around in astonishment, and she found herself above a sea of clouds composed of white mist.
The white mist flowed quietly like water, with nothing above it.
But as she watched, suddenly, white mist rolled silently, and tall stone pillars rose from the ground. Then a broad dome covered the stone pillars, with countless mysterious dark gold patterns engraved on it.
This building that suddenly appeared was so majestic, grand and towering, like the legendary fairy palace on top of the mountain.
Right below the dome, a large dark gold long table slowly emerged, and seven high-backed chairs were placed around the table. The backs of the chairs were dark red, and in the center of them, there was a silver-white mask inlaid, which looked lifelike!
Pride, wrath, envy, greed, laziness, gluttony, lust! The seven deadly sins!
"Is it you?" Seeing the silver-white mask, Nangong Mengli's tense body relaxed a little, and she looked at the chair with the arrogant mask printed on it.
Under her gaze, countless illusory lights intertwined, eventually weaving into an elegant figure in a tuxedo.
"Please sit down." Su Mu's voice came from under the silver-white mask.
Nangong Mengli looked at Su Mu deeply, and with mixed feelings, she walked to the seat representing jealousy and sat down.
The moment she sat down, she felt a chill on her face. She raised her hand to touch it, only to find that a cold mask had appeared on her face. When she touched the familiar smiling face engraved on the mask, she knew... it was jealousy.
She looked down and saw that her original attire had turned into the standard tuxedo unique to the Seven Deadly Sins. It was tailored to fit her and made her look tall and straight.
"Where...is this place?" A cold voice came from under the silver-white mask.
Su Mu smiled slightly: "This is the headquarters of the Seven Deadly Sins. Considering the bad reputation of the Seven Deadly Sins nowadays, it can also be called the old nest."
Phew.
Nangong Mengli burst out laughing. She found that Su Mu was still as humorous as before, as if he had never changed.
But when she thought of what Su Mu had done, her smile slowly faded.
As if sensing Nangong Mengli's mood changes, Su Mu smiled and said, "I know you have many questions in your mind. Don't worry, I will answer them when everyone is here."
As he finished speaking, the light on the high-backed chairs around the dark gold long table began to twist and intertwine, and figures of various shapes slowly emerged.
They all wore the same tuxedo and silver-white masks on their faces.
Jun Wushang, who was sitting in the lustful position, looked around in shock. When he saw the familiar mask, he obviously realized something and his gaze shifted to Pride, who was in the first position.
The same was true for Duanmu Qing who was sitting in the lazy position.
As for rage and greed, they are illusions.
Sitting in the gluttony position was Yan Wu, the puppet whose consciousness had been wiped out by Su Mu and who possessed two permanent growth abilities, [Battle of Life and Death] and [Dark Soul Devouring].
Su Mu also considered letting Yan Wu join the Seven Deadly Sins. First, Yan Wu is absolutely under control. Second, Yan Wu's laws are definitely the most promising laws known. As long as he continues to duel and kill enemies, he can permanently improve his physical fitness and mental strength. His future is limitless.
"Everyone, please be patient. Once everyone is gathered, you will know the answer."
Su Mu snapped his fingers, and outside the dark gold long table, lights intertwined, and a man in a tuxedo and a mask with the number one on his head slowly appeared.
It was Lin Canyang, the alternate chief of the Seven Deadly Sins. Because he was an alternate, he did not have a seat and could only stand aside during the meeting.
Lin Canyang, who suddenly appeared, was horrified, and a violent murderous aura subconsciously emerged from his body. The powerful aura that only belongs to a golden strong man spread out.
However, when seven figures in tuxedos and silver-white masks came into view, and the seven silver-white masks turned to look at him at the same time, the psychological sense of oppression reached its peak.
He was startled and quickly retracted his murderous aura. Nowadays, everyone in the world knows the reputation of the Seven Deadly Sins. As a substitute member, Lin Canyang naturally knows it better. Facing the gazes of seven people, this golden strong man behaved like an elementary school student facing his class teacher.
As everyone knows, the official members of the Seven Deadly Sins are all silver, and the only gold-ranked one is still a substitute.
Now the candidate gold is scared by silver.
