254 Judas' Evidence(2/2)
He walked over and picked up the angel statue for inspection, but after touching it for a long time he found nothing wrong.
The system display also indicated that it was an ordinary rare item.
At this moment, Hai Qinyan suddenly thought of something and walked over and said:
"The nuns at the temple said that Judas was very devout in his faith and prayed three times a day, once in the morning, at noon and in the evening. Each prayer took more than an hour."
"Normal prayers usually last about 15 minutes. If he prays for so long, there must be something wrong."
The meteor fell from the hand of Soaring Crane into an angel statue and fell to the ground!
Boom!
There was a heavy muffled sound, and the angel statue made of plaster broke into two pieces.
"Hi! Vice President, you are so brave.
Fortunately, we are all players here. If the NPC sees this, he will not fight you."
"Huh!" Meteor sneered and said decisively: "I'm sure there must be something hidden in the statue of Judas.
That's how it's done on TV.
Use something like this that no one dares to touch as a cover to hide secrets!"
Unfortunately, the statue was repeatedly hit by meteors several times, and it was all broken into pieces. There was still nothing inside.
At this moment, Soaring Crane suddenly realized:
"Space backpack! Judas is a legendary hero. He has a space backpack. He must be carrying the stolen goods with him!"
Meteor slapped his forehead and leaned in secretly.
yes!
This is not the real world, with space backpacks.
The space backpack is the safest place for NPC heroes to hide their things.
Only when the NPC hero dies will the items in the backpack be recovered by the crime value. Otherwise, no one can check it.
What to do?
Hai Qinyan said thoughtfully: "In that case, why did we receive the task of investigating clues from Adela?"
Meteor's eyes lit up: "Judas's men! Those soldiers!"
…
…
After nearly a night of searching by the players, the truth was finally revealed.
The findings were simply shocking.
All church leaders in Skikta and officials in Skikta are extremely wealthy.
Meteor even found a total of 20,000 gold coins from a monk who had just entered the temple.
You know, Skikda City is a key poverty-stricken city in Erathia, the kind that suffers from natural disasters year after year.
With the help of the Holy Spirit's insight, Judas' operations were also thoroughly interrogated by Adela from under his control.
It turns out that the city of Skikda has been applying to the church for tax exemptions and exemptions in the name of suffering from natural disasters and successive years of famine since the 8th year.
But these tax exemptions were used by Judah to enrich his own pockets in the name of prayer tax.
In addition to taxes, there is also a large amount of disaster relief money declared by the church headquarters in Skikda.
And in order to develop the church and spread the faith, funds are needed.
All this fell into the hands of Judah.
Evading taxes, freeing up wages, and reselling supplies are simply the three carriages of Skikda City.
Every year the churches in Skikda City alone apply for poverty alleviation grants amounting to millions of gold coins.
Judas also used the stolen money that filled his pockets to corrupt officials at all levels in the city of Skikda, forming a huge network to deal with the inspections of the church's superiors.
When the church comes to check, the superiors can bribe them.
If they can't get through to their superiors, they won't be able to find anything even if they ask the officials to investigate.
When they go to the people, the people are indeed living in extreme poverty, and they are guaranteed to see only what they want to see.
There was a businessman who once thought of a way to tell the truth.
I made a report that morning and was burned to ashes in the afternoon because of collusion.
The neighbors around the businessman also received two gold coins per person as a reporting fee.
Every inspection was handled smoothly by Judas.
In fact, Judas was praised several times by the church for his meritorious service in governing the city of Skikda.
The large amount of wealth made Judah's life extremely luxurious.
He specially built a glazed room underneath the church, where he kept women he collected from various places, ranging from orcs to humans to elves, and allowed them to live in the room wearing only crotchless pants.
From what they said, Judas' favorite thing was to have them lie down on the ground and line up in a row.
Judas blindfolded himself, turned around a few times and randomly selected a lucky person, and guessed the race of the person based only on partial physical contact.
Judas hired four halfling cooks to prepare his meals.
During the most extreme period, he even raised a group of live griffins.
When he wanted to eat a griffon every day, he ordered the kitchen to catch one, cut off only two pieces of meat from the base of the griffin's wings and use them for barbecue, and threw away the rest of the griffin.
The results of the investigation simply shocked the players of Tianxia Hegemon and left them speechless.
Meteor even said bluntly: "Damn it, I'm so envious. I can't wait to replace him."
In addition, the players who originally dominated the world were planning to frame Judah.
The paws of Xiaotian's four dogs were tied up and prepared as evidence.
It's no longer necessary now.
In Judas's glass room, there is a concubine, a succubus, and two female hellhounds.
After interrogation, Adela discovered that they were all bought by Judah's men and a lord of the hell forces.
It's just corruption, Judas still has a way to survive, and the church can still punish him with small punishments and big commandments.
After all, Judas is a legendary priest.
But the officiant was surrounded by soldiers from hell, and he also directly made deals with the lords of the hell forces.
Then the only thing waiting for Judas was death.
After listening to Adela's report, Ronis sighed three times, and with cold eyes asked Adela to press Judas back to the Holy City for interrogation.
And on the spot, Adela was assigned to temporarily take over Skikda City and officially became the commander-in-chief of the counter-rebellion forces.
Gailmos also entered a more stringent review stage because Judas was investigated for colluding with Hell.
Until he was sent to the prison van, Judas was still confident that his operation was perfect and Adela would definitely not be able to find anything in his investigation.
Unfortunately, in the face of the Holy Spirit’s insight, no lie can escape.
Adela watched as the prison car escorted by Palu entered the portal and headed for Shengtian City.
She turned her head and looked at the sky. The deep night shrouded Erathia, hiding all sin and darkness.
The people of Skikda never knew the truth. They didn't even know that Skikda was suffering from famine for many years.
They only know that every year the church will come to collect just the right amount of food so that they will not starve to death, but they will not have enough to eat.
Only in this way will they not be bewitched by demons due to excessive desires.
On the thin shoulders of countless civilians stood a luxurious and lustful officiant.
This is not an isolated case, it is just a microcosm of the huge kingdom of Erathia and one of the consequences of the disorderly expansion of the church.
Fortunately, there are seven pigeons here.
It will be dawn in half an hour.
The dark night is about to pass, and light will eventually return to the world.
"OOOO!!"
"Twister Charge Tornado!"
When Adela lowered her head, she saw under the city wall, the players of the world's hegemony were lying happily swimming in the gold coins found, as if they were mentally retarded.
She sighed deeply, her eyes weak.
It seems that it will have to be dark for a while.
ps: There will be an event on the 15th, a lucky draw, which can be drawn by hamsters and book friends with a fan value of 500 or more.
I'll save the manuscript first.
Chapter completed!
