"Huh?" Not only Li Huailin, everyone in the meeting room looked towards Rehnquist. Yes, no one expected him to be the one speaking. In theory, Rehnquist didn't have the right to be here. After all, he had just joined them, and was only a slave foreman who acted as a translator. However, this was a special period, and he was the only one who understood the Sektor Star's language and participated in the interrogation. Therefore, he was allowed to stand here and listen.
Of course, he was just listening from the side. No one thought that he would really dare to speak at this time. What kind of status did the people sitting here have? The generals, marshals, and even the emperor like Anthony were present. They hadn't even said anything, but this slave foreman actually spoke first. What was the meaning of this?
Li Huailin obviously didn't care about his status like these people, but he didn't expect Rehnquist to think of a solution. Although he was a little surprised, Li Huailin immediately said, "Sure, let's hear it."
Hearing Li Huailin's words, the people who wanted to stop him immediately stopped. Since Li Huailin wanted to listen, of course they couldn't say anything. However, with so many marshals present, even if Jiang Jun couldn't think of a good solution, what could a slave foreman like him think of? Weren't you asking for trouble? Everyone felt that if there was any problem with what he said, they would immediately scold him to death. Anyway, there were still many translators.
Rehnquist obviously saw the murderous gazes of these generals. He obviously knew what was going on, but he also had his own plans. Now that he had decided to hug Li Huailin's thigh, Rehnquist of course had to hug it tightly in the future. Although he was the only one who knew what he said, the others would report it soon. Now that he was the only one present, he could only say it now. If he offended these generals, he couldn't do anything about it.
"Your Majesty, perhaps we can try to contact the cultists here …" Rehnquist thought until here and said.
"Huh? Cultists? " Li Huailin was slightly taken aback, but he immediately reacted. "You're saying that there are Sector Star Monsters here who don't believe in Byakee?"
"Yes, Your Majesty. I only learned about it when I was chatting with the captives last night." Renquist nodded. "Your Majesty, you might know that the Sechtor Tribe were originally natives of this continent. After Byakee arrived, some of the Sechtor Tribe worshipped it and called themselves the Sechtor Star Monsters. They are the enemies we are facing now. However, there were still some Sektor tribesmen who did not believe in this foreign god and continued to call themselves Sektor tribesmen. However, after many years, the Sequthor Star Monsters gradually controlled the entire continent, so the original Sequthor clansmen became heathens and were persecuted by the Sequthor Star Monsters. Based on the current situation, they are considered fugitives in the entire continent and are probably in hiding. That's why I didn't know that there was such a group of people. I only learned about them from the captives yesterday when they talked about encircling them. "
That's right, Rehnquist wasn't the only one who had heard of this matter. After Li Huailin went offline, the foremen continued to interrogate the Sechtor Star Beasts. After all, their boss had already confessed. This time, they didn't face much resistance and managed to obtain some useful information. This incident was one of them. Rehnquist hadn't had the time to report this before the meeting started. He thought that it would be his credit if he told them now, so he hurriedly told them.
"Oh?" Li Huailin was slightly surprised. "How many of these heathens are there?"
"This … Your Majesty, they don't know either." Rehnquist replied.
Li Huailin nodded slightly. After all, so many years had passed. The Sektor tribesmen who were still alive must have hidden themselves very well. In theory, regardless of whether these Sektor tribesmen believed in Byakee or not, their environment should be the same. Therefore, there shouldn't be much difference in appearance. Perhaps they lived directly among these people.
"But how do we find these people?" Li Huailin asked. "In theory … they shouldn't know where these people are hiding. Otherwise, they would have been eliminated long ago, right?"
"Yes … Yes, Your Majesty." Rehnquist nodded. "But we do have a clue."
"Oh? What clue? "Li Huailin asked.
"According to City Lord Gustadi, the church recently ordered them to search the sea. Although they didn't say it clearly, the base of these heathens might be on an island." Rehnquist said.
"On an island?" Li Huailin nodded. This was a rather reliable explanation. With the lack of visibility on the mainland, he didn't know how the Sektor tribesmen navigated the sea. However, it was obvious that the safety of the sea was much higher than on the mainland. Of course, although he knew it was on an island, Li Huailin didn't know where it was. Obviously, the Sektor tribesmen didn't know either. Otherwise, they would have sent people there long ago.
"Your Majesty, if we can contact this Sektor tribesmen, it will be very beneficial to us." Michael said.
"I know, but the problem is that we don't know how to contact them." Li Huailin spread his hands. "We don't even know where they are now. Do you think …"
"Your Majesty." As they spoke, a soldier walked in and shouted at Li Huailin.
"What's the matter?" Usually, this was an urgent military situation. Otherwise, they wouldn't have come to disturb him at this time. Of course, it was normal for an urgent military situation to appear. They had just attacked so many Sektor tribesmen yesterday. It was normal for them to receive the news and send troops to check the situation. Therefore, Li Huailin didn't find it strange.
"Your Majesty, we just captured a returning ship at a port called Setotis. We found more than 20 Setotis Star Monsters on it. However, after they heard our identity, they wanted to talk to Your Majesty. They said they aren't on the same side as these people … "The soldier said.
"Huh?" Li Huailin immediately thought of the word "heathens". What a coincidence that they came to him just as he said he wanted to contact them? Whether it was true or not, Li Huailin decided to go take a look first.
After thinking for a while, Li Huailin said to everyone, "I will go take a look first. You all return to your strongholds to defend. Don't attack for now. If any troops come, report immediately and keep in touch."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Everyone nodded.
"Follow me." Li Huailin pointed at Rehnquist. Of course, he was going to translate. Of course, Rehnquist was very happy. Although Li Huailin did not reward him with anything substantial, he was now able to keep him by his side. This way, he would have more time to get close to Li Huailin. Of course, it would be more convenient for him to do anything. Therefore, he was naturally very happy to follow them.
"Tesmog, you come too." Li Huailin thought for a while and decided to bring this torturer along. He wanted to see if he was telling the truth. After all, what he knew was limited.
"I'll go too." Anthony said.
"You stay here and look after Ben." Li Huailin said. "I'm just going to check out the situation."
Anthony didn't insist. Soon, Li Huailin brought a few people to Setotis. After entering the city, Li Huailin saw a few captured Setotis clansmen. Li Huailin observed them for a while. At the moment, at least on the surface, Li Huailin could not see any difference between these people and the Sector Star Monsters. No matter how he looked at them, they looked the same. The names above their heads were also red. They didn't have any faction.
"Rehnquist, go and ask them." Li Huailin waved his hand and said.
Rehnquist obviously knew what Li Huailin wanted to ask, so he went to talk to them. Very quickly, he sent the information back to Li Huailin.
According to them, they were Setotis clansmen, or heathens. Of course, they wouldn't call themselves heathens. They definitely believed that they were the righteous ones. The lives of these heathens weren't good. The organization had completely gone underground. Most of them were mixed in the city. They were no different from normal Setotis. Many of them had even given up on contact. They were considered core members and still had contact with the headquarters. Previously, they went out to sea to inform the leader that the Sektor Star Monsters had intensified their search for them and to warn the leader to be careful. In the end, everything was normal when they went out, but when they returned, they didn't know that their city had changed owners. As a result, when they got off the ship, they were stunned and inexplicably captured by human soldiers who came out of nowhere.
Of course, they didn't say anything, so they must have been locked up with the other captives. After talking to the other captives, they found out that these human soldiers had massacred their entire city. They were also interrogating them about Byakee.
Realizing that the human army's target might be Byakee, their target was naturally Byakee as well. Both sides had the same goal. These few people had the same idea as Li Huailin. They wanted to see if they could make use of each other. Therefore, they quickly found a translator in the prison to convey their intentions. That was how the soldier reported the situation.
"You know where the leader is?" Li Huailin heard the important information and asked directly, "Can you see him?"
