After clicking the upgrade button casually, Qin Rongshuai was promoted to level 5 and added 1 point of attribute value to his agility.He looked at Demis, who was full of concern, and couldn't laugh or cry. Did this guy act too hard?

"I saw you being taken away by people from the temple. I was afraid that they would harm you, so I went back and summoned my people, and rushed over, but unfortunately I didn't catch up." Themis looked regretful, "But it's good that you are fine. .”

It's great that Themis can bring people here, not to mention that this is the Temple of Delphi. For the Greeks, this place is very sacred, and it takes a lot of determination and courage to fight against the temple.

The people who followed Themis still looked terrified at this time. They were still in awe of the temple, and they were called here in the middle of the night in a daze, and they were inevitably trembling.

Demis waved his hand, and ordered his subordinates: "Clean up this place."

His entourage looked at the bloody scene in front of them at a loss, glanced at each other, and no one was willing to take the initiative to step forward.

Qin Rongshuai smiled, "Don't bother, let's do it ourselves."

As he said that, he winked at his subordinates, "Go, we must clean this place carefully and seriously."

Seeing Qin Rongshuai's subordinates scattered like wolves and tigers, Demis exclaimed, "The sacrificial utensils cannot be moved!"

Qin Rongshuai said comfortingly, "It's okay, my subordinates are all professionals, and things that shouldn't be moved will not be moved. I have more important things to tell you."

Then, Qin Rongshuai talked about the fact that the citizen councilors and some generals were bribed, and Demis' face turned livid. He never expected that he would go around lobbying and planning to fight against the Persian alliance, but he was stabbed in the back knife.

"It's over." With a bitter expression, Demis punched the pillar next to him angrily. "Tomorrow is the day for the meeting of 500 people. Once the resolution is passed, it cannot be changed."

His ambitions and ambitions were all in vain, and Themis seemed to have aged ten years in an instant.

"No, we still have a chance!" Qin Rongshuai shouted, "Themistocles, do you just give up?"

Demis was stunned, and asked suspiciously: "The vote will be held tomorrow, what chance do we have?"

"We still have one night, we can reverse this situation." Qin Rongshuai said loudly, "Themistocles, do you want to be a coward? You just watch Athens in danger, the parliamentary system Was it destroyed and manipulated by the enemy?"

"No, never!" Demis was so excited by Qin Rongshuai, he regained his spirit and said, "I want to fight them and defend Athens! It's just that our strength is too weak."

"No, you still have me as an ally." Qin Rongshuai patted Themis on the shoulder vigorously, "The most urgent task now is to regain control of the Athens city guard. Can you do it?"

"There is no problem with this, but why is it important to control the city guard of Athens?" Themis was a little puzzled.

"Of course it's important." Qin Rongshuai said sternly, "If the Athens city guards blocked the parliament hall during the voting, if the voting format is unfavorable, they might use force to force the members to change their positions."

"How is this possible?!" Demis exclaimed, "This is something only military dictators would do. How dare they?"

"It's already at this time, why don't they dare." Qin Rongshuai sneered, he had heard too much about similar things, even if he didn't use a sword, he just surrounded the parliament and wouldn't let anyone go unless he got a satisfactory result. , Members will give in after a day.

"These bastards!" Themis said through gritted teeth, "I'll send someone to the camp of the Athens city guard."

"That's not enough, we still need to deal with the generals who were bought." Qin Rongshuai turned his head to look at the wise men of the Cult of Order, "They were the ones who carried out the bribery operation, and they must have a list of relevant personnel. The list, let's go and convince them one by one."

It's just that the interrogation didn't go well. After interrogating the five wise men and other ordinary members one after another, they only got the name of one traitorous general and a list of 30 members of the council.

Qin Rongshuai was furious, "Aren't you impatient to live, come here, drag them out and chop off a few heads, I see if they say anything."

The people of Kosmos panicked, and hurriedly defended. It turned out that everyone's list was in the hands of the leader, the saint, especially the important people. The general who was confessed was accidentally known by a wise man.

Looking at the delirious saint, it was obvious that he couldn't ask anything.

"Only thirty people?" Demis frowned slightly as he looked at the list on the papyrus, and said after thinking for a while, "Thirty people are enough."

Qin Rongshuai nodded in agreement, "It's impossible for them to buy more than half of the councilors. It's scary if there are a hundred of them. Most of them should have reached some kind of verbal agreement, and most of them have a herd mentality. As long as At the beginning of the voting, they concentrated their votes to create an overwhelming advantage at the beginning, making the neutral members of the parliamentarians think that the moderate faction is the mainstream, and they will follow the vote, thus overwhelming the pro-war faction members in the number of votes.”

Demis has played parliamentary elections for many years, so he naturally understands this truth. "I can get 120 votes. Except for these 30 people, 260 votes belong to the neutral party, and about [-] votes belong to them."

"Neutral votes are the key now." Qin Rongshuai said decisively, "Take your people immediately, wake up all your friends, brothers, and relatives, mobilize those who can be mobilized, and control these 30 people before dawn. There is the traitorous general. I will continue to interrogate here to see if I can find anything more."

After the discussion between the two parties, Themis hurried back to Athens with a group of followers. It seemed that the city of Athens would be very lively tonight.

Qin Rongshuai returned to the hall of the temple to count the harvest of his subordinates. Except for the immovable sacrificial vessels, he only found more than 300 gold coins. These obviously did not satisfy Qin Rongshuai, so he pressed him again.

As a result, the people of the Order of God once again pushed the blame on the confused saint. Qin Rongshuai had no choice but to tie the saint aside first, and asked someone to pour water on him and induce vomiting to see if he could wake up.

But what Qin Rongshuai was most curious about was why the people from the God of Order wanted to trouble him tonight.

The wise man of the Order of God replied that it was the order of the saints. Some people wanted them to teach themselves a lesson through the temple, but they didn't expect that he was a member of the order of the ancients, so they had to take him to the temple first.

Then why do you let the guards ambush outside the temple?

Their answers made Qin Rongshuai even more dumbfounded. It turns out that the Cult of Order and the Order of the Ancients are just a cooperative relationship, and the two have no affiliation.However, relying on the powerful national power of Persia, the Order of Ancients repeatedly forced the Cult of Order to accept their decisions, and often cooperated with their actions unconditionally.

But this is not the main issue. The most deadly difference is the distribution of benefits.

A secret organization cannot survive just by shouting slogans.Lofty ideals and great beliefs cannot unite people's hearts, they can only deceive young people who are not deeply involved in the world.

If you want to grow and maintain a large organization, interests are essential.

The people of Kosmos are not ascetic monks, they treat money like dung, many of them are businessmen, and they only see money.They gave most of the money sent by the Order of the Ancients to buy people's hearts, and at the same time they used the controlling members to blackmail the Order of the Ancients to obtain more money and benefits.

The Order of the Ancients had long been dissatisfied and threatened to send someone to personally take charge of the lobbying and bribery work. This would be breaking the purse of the Cult of Kosmos, so they decided to do it without stopping. If the Order of the Ancients sent someone, they would Get rid of it secretly, and demonstrate to the other party through this action.

Qin Rongshuai was speechless after hearing the truth and could only admit that he was unlucky. He originally wanted to attack the Cult of Order, but such a twist happened.

Looking at the group of captives in front of him, Qin Rongshuai suddenly thought of an idea, could he try to secretly control the Cult of Order?
He was thinking about the feasibility of a plan, when the divine guard squatting in the corner suddenly screamed and rolled over.
