"Um?"

Upon hearing this answer, Neo leaned back and glanced to both sides behind him with the corner of his eyes.

He had the feeling that Karen was standing behind him, watching him place bets and gambling, and then a crow flew over to tease him.

Fortunately, Karen was not seen.

call......

Neo suddenly frowned, why did he feel so guilty? Who was he, Karen, and why could he control his gambling?

"Minister, what should we do?" Leon was a little worried. He had unconditional trust in Karen. After all, he was the next batch of "believers" personally selected by Alfred.

"What should I do?" Neo lit a cigarette, "I asked you to investigate, just investigate. Aren't we here just to investigate? Or are we here to gamble?"

Leon: Didn’t you ask me to come here to gamble and relax?

"How's it going? Do you think it's interesting?" Neo asked, "I just placed a hundred points of coupons. If I win the last one, I can make tens of thousands."

"But, I didn't win."

"Hai, the probability of winning is not high." Neo didn't take it seriously and stood up, "Let's go backstage and meet my old friends."

Neo and Leon stood up and left their seats. Many people around them cast sympathetic glances, thinking that they had lost their underwear.

In fact, this amount of money is really nothing to Neo now, and it is far from enough to make him miss the warm breeze on the rooftop.

There were people from the *** company standing in the background blocking the way. Inside there were two people wearing divine robes. The main color of their divine robes was dark red, with a grimace mask on it. There are rumors that nowadays, in literary and artistic works,

The active clown image in the circus evolved from here.

He is the image of a god - Ganarad.

The Cult of Ganarad is a medium-sized religious cult, but it is very well-known because in the mythological narratives of each religion, their god Ganarad is called the God of Gambling in another way.

Similar to the Goddess Mills who is a deity worshiped by many gambling industries, the statue of the god worshiped by many casinos and the evolved image prototype is Ganarad.

He was active in the last era. He was once a member of the eternal camp, and later switched to the light camp. Finally, when Order separated from the light camp, he was one of the first gods to follow the God of Order.

It can be said that in the last era, he was one of the most active and accurate gods in taking sides. No matter how the situation changes, he will always have the status of "victor".

After entering this era, for a long time, the Religion of Order and the Religion of Light existed side by side. The Religion of Order benefited from the influence of the God of Order dominating the divine world at the end of the last era. Although the Religion of Light developed rapidly,

The God of Light was "lost" early on, but the foundation remains.

The tragedy of Ganaradism happened during that period. Originally, the religion left by Ganarad had a large church and could even touch the strength of the orthodox religion, but the church obviously did not have the support of their gods.

They first broke with the Order and took refuge in the Light Cult, and then broke with the Light...

The Illuminati Cult declared the Ganarad Cult a cult and launched a religious war against them. The Ganarad Cult wanted to defect back to seek the protection of the Cult of Order, but encountered the indifference of the Order.

In the end, the sect was almost wiped out under the attack of the Illuminati Cult, and its status was almost that of a rat crossing the street.

A thousand years ago, light died, order won the competition with light, and the Cult of Kosmos successfully established a church circle system based on the "Ordinances of Order".

Then, for some unknown reason, the Cult of Kosmos not only failed to investigate the past betrayal of the Ganarad Cult, but also canceled the sect’s status as a cult.

It has only been a thousand years, and the remnants of the past have redeveloped into a medium-sized religious religion.

This fully illustrates the strong vitality of gambling dogs.

"I'm looking for Miye, Miye Danat."

The two priests inside immediately pushed aside the staff outside and motioned for them to enter.

In the priest's belt

Under the leadership, Neo and the two formally walked into the backstage. In fact, they entered the "office area" of another building from the "entertainment area" through the underground passage.

After entering a very spacious office, Leon heard a surprise cheer:

"Oh, my dear old friend Neo, it's been so long!"

A middle-aged man opened his arms and took the initiative to hug Minister Neo.

The middle-aged man looked like a lawyer, without wearing a divine robe, and he was dressed strictly and cleanly.

Yes, clean.

This word is rarely used to describe a person's appearance, but this is indeed the first impression Miye gave Leon. He has an innate affinity that makes you subconsciously want to trust him.

But trusting someone who runs a casino...the consequences are quite dire.

Neo hugged the other person warmly, and then they each sat down.

It's just that Neo sat in Mie's original seat, and Mie sat on the visitor's sofa.

Miye smiled and said, "I never thought that you would be able to sit in this position."

"The same goes for you."

As he spoke, Neo looked at Leon and introduced him: "I caught this kid illegally inducing people to gamble in Sangpu City. Later, I saw that he had a good attitude towards pleading guilty. The purpose of punishment is to educate.

As a matter of principle, I will let him go."

Leon knew that this "good confession" must be expensive.

"What's tempting people to gamble? I just want to attract some believers for the mission. This is a mission arranged by the above, and I have to carry it out. Besides, all activities of the Ganarad Religion on the territory of Order will be strictly controlled.

Reported in order.

For example, this time, the order has been reported, so that we can come here regularly to absorb part of the gambling greed. Our activities are actually beneficial to the normal operation of society.

After all, what Order wants to see is a society that develops normally, doesn’t it?”

Leon said: "No, what Order wants to see is a human society that can develop freely without interference from the divine religion.

Miye asked back: "Then do you know that human beings' collective greed can easily breed strange demons, even evil gods?"

"This...I know."

"So, the reason why Order allows us and small church activities like Mills Church is also to clean things up. At least, we are much easier to control than those newly born things, and we know the rules better.

Neo, if you don't want to introduce this young man, he was only about his age when we first met.

Neo replied: "If I had his family status, you wouldn't know me."

"Oh, so that's it."

"I'm not here to see you, Miye. I want to see the dice shaker. I know that there is such a master in the team you came over this time."

"Our dice player just went to see a director of your regional management office this morning. He has just rested now. I can arrange time for you tomorrow. You see..."

"Of course, we are old friends."

"Neo, thank you for your accommodation..."

"I just received a report that there are violations outside the order allowed here. I immediately ordered the whip of order to come and seal it. I must clear your old friend's name."

"Please wait a moment. I believe the dice player will be very happy to see you. I will go and inform you of the arrangements."

"Well, okay."

Miye stood up, opened the door to the back room of the office and walked in.

Neo also stood up, opened the small wine cabinet in the office, moved away the cheap drinks outside, took the most expensive one, rummaged through Miye's desk drawer, and took a bar inlaid with a formation aura gem.

He clipped his pen to his breast pocket, took out a carton of open church cigarettes, pulled out a pack, and threw the rest directly towards Leon.

"Help me keep it."

"good."

A sip of wine, a puff of cigarette, Neo

He burped very comfortably and said with a smile:

"No matter how many great principles they say, their church assets are built on the blood and tears of believers, so just take whatever you like without any psychological pressure."

"I understand, but there's nothing I want."

"People must have desires in life." Neo reminded.

"Mr. Alfred will guide me."

"Heh." Neo took another sip of wine angrily, "Then you won't be disappointed."

After a while, Miye came back. He opened the door and made a "please" gesture to Neo: "The dice player is waiting to meet you."

Neo walked in with a cigarette in his mouth and a wine bottle in his hand. Leon hesitated for a moment and followed suit.

The room inside is a bit dim, with a dark red color. There is a very low gaming table in the center. There is a curtain under the gaming table, which looks like a heating place. In winter, many ordinary families in Wein use this method of heating.

A woman in her late forties was sitting there, with her legs under the gaming table, half of her face covered with a black gauze, her oval face, which showed her youthful beauty, and her two earrings were dice.

"Hello, Mr. Minister, please forgive me. I am physically disabled and cannot get up to greet you."

"It's okay, it's okay, just sit down."

Neo looked back and saw that Miye immediately exited and closed the door at the same time. The moment the door was closed, the isolation barrier was activated to ensure that the conversation inside would not be eavesdropped by the outside.

"Mr. Minister, please take a seat."

"Okay, okay." Neo didn't sit down, but pointed at Leon, "Sit."
