145: Cult Meeting

At this time, in a secluded small village in H Province, a group of people quietly gathered here from various parts of the Tianlong Republic.

This village was a cult stronghold, and everyone in it, including the elderly, pregnant women, and even children, were members of the Divine Card Sect.

Others would not have thought that the Divine Card Sect would hide in such a small village, nor would they have thought that the underground of this village had been hollowed out.

Going down to the first underground level, the scene inside was completely different from the layout of the village.

The interior presented an overall eerie, cold, and slightly bloody feeling; in the center was a large, protruding circular altar, and three steps led up to the altar.

On the altar, one could see stone tablets resembling tombstones standing on the surrounding steps, with the codenames of each high-ranking Divine Card Sect member carved on them; a careful count revealed exactly 99.

In the center of the altar was a high-backed chair, Dark with a hint of bright red, its style very similar to the stone tablets on the steps, but more exquisite... Ten bishops ascended the steps together and looked around; most of the Divine Card Sect members had arrived, while others were either messengers who had met with an accident or had themselves encountered trouble.

However, these were common occurrences for the Divine Card Sect, and they did not take them to heart; for them, as long as there were Card Makers and ordinary people, there was fertile ground for their growth.

If the Government army were to raid here, perhaps the Divine Card Sect would be wiped out.

Unfortunately, their letters would not reveal information about this place, and those who knew of this location had all undergone layers of trials.

The group that previously robbed the Energy Guild's exclusive store did not know this location.

The 10 of them walked up to the third step, as the central position of the altar belonged to His Holiness the Pope.

No one knew if His Holiness the Pope was male or female, old or young; they only knew that whenever the Divine Card Sect faced a major danger, His Holiness the Pope would send letters to help the Divine Card Sect overcome the danger...

“Have you found out who this Bai Xiaobai is? Do you know his detailed current information? Is he a Card Maker cultivated by the Government, or by a family, or is he an individual Card Maker?”

“Sorry, Bishop, we only know that the Government and the Card Maker Guild cooperated on this Dry Battery Card, so Bai Xiaobai should be an individual Card Maker.”

“Is there no other information?”

Although the bishops' eyes could not be seen, the person opposite still trembled with fear.

Recalling the intelligence obtained earlier, wanting to search for useful information, suddenly, he thought of a useful piece of information and quickly looked up, replying to the adults.

“Yes, there is; we have found out that Liu Mengyan, Liu Mengyun, and Wu Bai have joined Bai Xiaobai’s new research institute.”

“Could this Bai Xiaobai be a member of the Liu Family?”

After this question, no one replied, as there was no concrete evidence for this matter, and no one dared to give a definitive answer.

One bishop, seeing this, snorted coldly.

“Father Wang, I'll leave the task of investigating Bai Xiaobai's identity to you.”

“Alright.”

Another bishop thought for a moment and said, “Now that new energy cardss have appeared, will the previous Coal Card be eliminated? Is the Qian Family just going to accept being eliminated by the times and replaced by newcomers?”

“Are you suggesting?”

“Why should we get involved ourselves? We can add fuel to the fire for the Qian Family and let them fight.”

“Old Master Qian might not agree to the Qian Family opposing the Tianlong Republic.”

“Then get rid of him.”

However, there were also people within the Divine Card Sect who disagreed with this matter; they joined the Divine Card Sect only because their political views clashed with the current Government, but they still hoped that this country could develop better than others.

“With two energy cardss in hand, the Tianlong Republic can become the largest nation. Wouldn't what we are doing be bad?”

“Yes, it would.”

“If it gets better, we will get worse. Do you want to live your whole lives without any prospect of advancement?”

Hearing these words, those who opposed did not continue to object.

They were not saints, and saints would not join the Divine Card Sect.

They all joined the Divine Card Sect for themselves; for them, they could do anything to live well and achieve their goals...

In a small studio in G Province, the editor-in-chief walked hurriedly into the office.

“Notify all editors to put down their work and come to the conference room for a meeting.”

After he said that, everyone in the office was a bit confused, not knowing what had happened, but seeing the editor-in-chief’s serious expression, they still rushed to the conference room.

Xiao Liu was a junior editor here; his daily work was very leisurely, either slacking off or writing carelessly.

The content of the newspapers they published was basically some trivial gossip, much of which was untrue.

Therefore, their newspaper was only published in G Province; local grandmas loved it, but outsiders had never even heard of it, and the newspaper's information could not leave the province.

Today, to his surprise, the editor-in-chief urgently notified everyone about something: the newspaper for August 28th needed to write about new energy, and he handed them the papers describing new energy.

After several twists and turns during the meeting, this important task finally fell on Xiao Liu’s shoulders.

Although the editor-in-chief gave him the new energy description report, Xiao Liu still didn't know how to write it.

After all, he had always written wildly and imaginatively; this time, being asked to write about such a serious topic, he was very afraid of writing poorly and being taken away for a lecture.

No other way.

He could only go to the director and ask how to write it.

After all, being scolded by the director was much better than being scolded by the Guard Team.

At this time, he was not resigned to losing his job; he was only worried about being unable to work in the future.

The director, who had just finished a meeting, returned to his office and took a sip of water, thinking that he had already assigned the task; just as he breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't expect the matter to come back to him.

ε = ( ´ ο ｀ * ) ) ) Alas!

He chose his subordinates, so he had to bear the consequences when something went wrong.

The director rubbed his smooth forehead; he didn't even have hair to lose.

No choice, he could only teach him how to write it...

On August 28th, people in the Tianlong Republic were stunned when they saw the morning newspaper.

‘Card Maker Bai Xiaobai Develops New Energy cards’

‘Explanation of New Energy cards’

‘The Birth of Electric Energy’

‘Z Province — The Next Key Development Province’

‘Electric Energy Research Institute to be Established in Z Province’

‘Tianlong Republic Becomes the World’s Foremost Energy Power’

...Even the journals “theory” and “practice” were sent to various Card Makers in advance, allowing Card Makers to read Bai Xiaobai's paper at the first opportunity.

At this time, not only were the people in the Tianlong Republic who saw the newspaper stunned, but spies from other countries were also shocked, and they hastily sent out the news.
