In the basement of the hotel at No. 27 Lier Street, when the moonlight came through the window at exactly one o'clock in the morning, Mozo saw the mechanism that the bishop had mentioned.
That is a method that has been used a lot in various film and television dramas in Mozo's hometown, which is the so-called pushing bricks to open the door!
After pushing it in with a little force, a small door leading to the underground opened silently behind Mozo.
Mozo took a look inside. It was a completely dark tunnel. There was no lighting inside. It might be to save costs, or it might be to prevent the energy fluctuations from being detected by some strange things.
However, Mozo noticed that the entrance to the path was hollowed out to the left to create a niche. In the niche were placed several lighting stones.
After taking one, Mozo walked into the path.
After walking along the path for a long time relying on the cold light of the lighting stone, Mozo finally saw a wooden door.
The wooden door was not locked, probably just to keep out dust.
After all, if an outsider found this place, there would be no need to be on guard.
Or if an outsider really comes here, it would be better to put a bundle of explosives in the tunnel to blow it down instead of putting up a flimsy wooden door.
However, just as Mozo pushed open the wooden door and before he could say anything, three revolvers were pointed at his forehead.
"Who are you?"
"The Queen's lackey or something else?"
"How did you find this place?!"
Three serious and rapid voices echoed in Mozo's ears.
Mozo calmly raised his hands to indicate that he had no hostility before saying:
"It was the Bishop who told me about this place."
After saying that, Mozo also observed everything around him. This should still be a basement. In addition to the seven people present, there were only a table, seven or eight chairs, and a lamp above the head.
At the same time, there are several wooden doors on the walls of the house, which are probably the entrances to other places and escape routes.
Among the seven people present, five were wearing military uniforms, and the remaining two were wearing ordinary gentlemen's suits.
Mozo also noticed that judging from the uniforms of the five officers, they should all be mid-level officers, with the highest rank being a tall officer with the rank of lieutenant colonel, and the lowest rank being just a warrant officer.
Mozo couldn't tell the identities of the other two people who were not wearing military uniforms.
But the situation of these rebels is much worse than Mozo had imagined.
Mozo originally thought that the capture of Geling City should be led by a general. But the highest-ranking officer was only a lieutenant colonel.
According to Mozo's understanding, in Hazel's military composition, even a colonel officer could only control a regiment of one to two thousand people at most. As for a lieutenant colonel, it was not easy to estimate the number of troops he controlled based on his rank.
But even if this lieutenant colonel had a reorganized regiment, that would only be 2,000 people. And then there were the other four people who were from different units and each had troops under their own highest rank.
That's less than 5,000 people anyway...
My Lord Bishop, I know that your ultimate goal here is not to seek victory, but is it too optimistic to think that you can start a fire with such a small number of troops
This is not because Mozo intended to belittle them, but it is really difficult for a maximum of 5,000 soldiers to cause any trouble in a place like Ge Ling.
It is even possible that as soon as they show up, they will be suppressed by thunder from high-sequence extraordinary beings.
But in other words, their spirit of going even in this situation is truly awe-inspiring.
After hearing the word "bishop", an officer who was pointing a gun at Mozo frowned and said:
"Bishop Cologne? Why would Bishop Cologne tell you this? And why are you here?"
Mozo pointed to the brooch on his chest and said:
"This is something the Bishop gave me. You should recognize it, right? This is a supernatural item used for taking photos. The photo taken by the Bishop explains everything."
The tall officer who had just asked Mozo looked at the short officer next to him. After noticing the tall officer's gaze, the short officer immediately nodded and said:
"I did see Bishop Cologne wearing the same brooch."
The tall officer then took off the brooch that Mozo had specially pinned on his chest with some doubt.
After the seven of them looked at the old bishop's photo and had a brief discussion, they roughly accepted that Mozo should be fine.
After inviting Mozo to take a seat, the tall officer said to Mozo:
"Since Bishop Cologne believes in you, then we are willing to believe in you too. Then how is Bishop Cologne doing now?"
Because the person arrested was a diocesan bishop of the Victory Church, Marquis Bill's people suppressed the news to avoid any accidents before the decision was made.
Therefore, people here still don’t quite know what happened to Bishop Cologne.
In addition, Mozzo also noticed that although they said they believed in him, they did not directly drive them away or take action because of the old bishop.
The main reason for them to stay, apart from the fact that the old bishop told them a lot, was probably that they wanted to know about the old bishop's situation.
Come to think of it, if the old bishop had not been in that situation, he would probably have been extremely suspicious of Mozo. The old bishop who was very familiar with the extraordinary was like this, so it was normal for the few people here to doubt him, the "returned dead".
Compared with Mozzo's cognition, it was as if Newton not only crawled out of the book during his exam, but also put his head on the paper and said loudly that the formula should be written like this!
Mozo shook his head and smiled:
"The bishop is very good. And he has completed our original plan with me."
"The original plan? What was that?"
Several officers immediately became concerned.
Mozo smiled and said:
"I have already discussed with the old bishop that he would use false surrender to gain the trust of Marquis Bill. Then I persuaded Marquis Bill to use the old bishop's testimony to accuse his political enemies!"
"If everything goes well, Marquis Bill will help us transfer a considerable number of Geling City Guards. Although it is just a rotation of guards, it will also disrupt the original city defense."
The old bishop did not have time to tell Mozo which troops they had, and Mozo did not think he could perfectly influence Marquis Bill's hit list on his own.
Therefore, what Mozo wanted was just to disrupt the city's defense system.
As for how chaotic the fight can be, we can only pray that Marquis Bill is strong enough.
And if Marquis Bill is really powerful, then maybe Marquis Bill can play some other role in the future.
Mozzo's words made several of the seven people show obvious surprise, but the tall officer and the other gentleman who was not wearing a military uniform became more suspicious.
The tall officer said directly:
"That's a beautiful statement, but although I believe that Bishop Colen's determination to resist is absolutely reliable, I can't believe that Bishop Colen and you can fight against those nightmares!"
"You seem to be a superhuman as well, so you should know how terrifying and disgusting the abilities of nightmares are!"
The tall officer believed that Bishop Colen would really do this, but he did not believe that Bishop Colen and the man in front of him could resist the scrutiny of the Nightmares.
As long as this point cannot be overcome, no matter whether Mozo really wants to help them or not, he will not believe anything the other party says.
Mozo smiled and said:
"Nightmare is indeed a very useful path, but unfortunately, I happen to have a high-level item in the Nightmare Path!"
As Mozo said this, he took out a rubbing of Victoria's handwritten letter.
He did not take out the handwritten letter. As these people were very suspicious of him, Mozo was not prepared to reveal the fact that he had the handwritten letter from the true God.
Because it would easily make them think too much. After all, they didn't even believe that they were Aragorn.
This is undoubtedly bad for Mozo.
After taking out the rubbing, Mozo handed it to another person who was becoming increasingly suspicious of him.
That's the one on the left of the two men in gentleman's tuxedos.
"You are a mid-sequence transcendent, right? Then could you please take a look? Oh, and please don't open the envelope. After all, this is not something a mortal should be looking at."
There are blurred texts on Mozo's pages, but it's better not to read them if you can. After all, even if they are rubbings, they indirectly expose too much mystery.
Upon hearing this, the other party immediately stepped forward to check, but just as he was about to take action, he suddenly retracted his hand.
Mozo was a little surprised and said:
"Are you a transcendent from the Nightmare Path?"
The other party looked at Mozo with great surprise, and then looked at the rubbing in Mozo's hand with an expression of disbelief in his heart.
The tall officer frowned and asked:
"What's wrong?"
The gentleman in formal attire finally came back to his senses and said:
"My inspiration tells me that this is the handwriting of the true God! Although it should be just a rubbing, this is the handwriting of our Nightmare Path Sequence Zero!"
A copy of the handwriting of the true God?!
Although this answer caused a wave of surprise among the crowd, it did not lead to too much speculation.
After all, at present, only Mozo knows that Victoria has become the new Lord of Nightmares.
So to the rest of us, the rubbing in Mozo's hand should be just an echo of a distant era.
327 Sanchez is confused (4k)
The tall officer was also briefly surprised, and then slowly let go of a lot of his doubts in his heart. If this is the case, the credibility of the person in front of him should be very high.
It’s just that they still don’t quite believe that Mozo is the Grand Duke of Aragon.
After all, just as Mozo thought, before the hard evidence came, who would believe that Newton would come back to life to teach you how to take the exam
What they were thinking of at the moment was that Mozzo wanted to use the good name of the Grand Duke of Aragon to build momentum for himself.
This kind of thing is not only common in Mozo's hometown, but is even more common in this extraordinary world.
After all, there really is talk of reincarnation and resurrection here!
As for why they still don't believe that Mozo is Aragon even though there are such statements and evidence, it can only be said that it is Aragorn's fault, after all, the other people who were resurrected are also middle-sequence extraordinary people.
But the Grand Duke of Aragon is a well-known mortal!
And the long darkness of this land made the people here take it for granted. If the Duke of Aragon is really still alive, then why did he come now
After touching his nose, the tall officer stood up solemnly and stretched out his hand to Mozo, saying:
"I apologize for my previous attitude!"
Mozo smiled and shook the other's hand, then said jokingly and questioningly:
"Do you believe it now?"
The tall officer responded with a wry smile:
"In fact, we have reached the end of our rope and we are only qualified to doubt this much."
This sentence caused the atmosphere, which had just improved a lot, to become gloomy again in an instant.
Mozo couldn't help but ask:
"In that case, why do you have to do it? You should know better than me that your efforts will probably be in vain. And it will probably kill many people."
In response, several officers and two gentlemen all laughed and said:
"Because if we don't do this, more people will die!"
"We may become a joke, or perhaps not many people will see this fire. But at least after us, these nobles will be a little more cautious, after all, there are fools who dare to resist them!"
These two sentences were said very lightly, but their weight made Mozo, a man who had witnessed countless things that ordinary people could not imagine, feel awe.
After saying that, the tall officer invited Mozo to sit down, and at the same time he said helplessly:
"And we weren't in such a difficult situation at the beginning."
"What do you mean?"
Mozo raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Are there any other variables?"
The one who answered Mozo was the short officer, the lowest-ranking warrant officer here.
He said helplessly:
"At the beginning, my immediate superior, Lieutenant General Roside, who was in charge of the entire Goling Guards, was on our side."
"And now?"
"Lord Roside is a very good person, and he is also very kind to us subordinates, but he is too, well, how should I put it, Lord Roside."
"Lieutenant General Roside is too hesitant. He had already agreed to cooperate with our armed uprising, but he changed his mind a few days ago. The Lieutenant General is still afraid of death."
