Chapter 517 Chapter 517 – Reform
Compared to the strength of the Round Table, Tarilo’s strength was not worth mentioning. Just the Five Knights in the Round Table were far from what she could deal with, not to mention the strength of the entire Round Table.
However, it did not matter. Chen Heng did not expect her to be able to fight against the Round Table. He just felt that it was appropriate. After all, she was a powerhouse that was infinitely close to the fifth rank. Even if he accepted her as a subordinate, she could still be of some use.
Furthermore, from their standpoint, they were indeed on the same side. They were enemies with the Round Table. Sometimes, there was no need to say too much. Just this alone was enough.
“By the way.” Keo’s expression was respectful as he asked Chen Heng, “Leader, what should we do with the sacrificial offerings here?”
“Sacrificial offerings?” Chen Heng was a little confused and looked at Keo. Keo immediately felt a burst of pressure, and he quickly explained and did not dare to hesitate.
After Delia fell and Tarilo surrendered, the entire Red Lotus’s power was consolidated by Chen Heng. The people who acted as sacrificial offerings all ended up in Chen Heng’s hands, as they were also a good source of resources.
Besides Chen Heng himself, the others, including Keo, were all very envious of these sacrificial offerings. After all, the Red Lotus Society relied on sacrificial offerings to make their fortune. Offering sacrifices was not only a daily habit for them, but it also had tangible benefits.
Their long-standing habit made them quickly focus on this batch of sacrificial offerings. They did not place much importance on the other items.
“Sacrificial offerings…” Chen Heng pondered before remembering that there was such a thing
The actual outcome of these people who acted as sacrificial offerings was naturally destined. Like those people from before, they were destined to become offerings and be sacrificed to the Black King. From Chen Heng’s point of view, this was undoubtedly a waste.
However, he did not intend to change this point. At the very least, he was not prepared to change it now. As a cult, the Red Lotus Society was stringent. Although there were not many followers, they were all elites. Everyone, including Ko, desired to become a priest, hoping to improve their strength. This was why a considerable number of them stayed in the Red Lotus Society.
If they were to cut off the sacrificial offerings, they would probably be very dissatisfied, although these people would not rebel. Chen Heng did not mind, but there was no need. Status determined one’s position. From the point of view of the leader of the Red Lotus Society, it was necessary for those who acted as sacrificial offerings to exist.
At the very least, this greatly strengthened the strength of the Red Lotus Society and increased its internal cohesion. The Red Lotus Society was able to develop to its current scale thanks to this method.
“How about this…” Chen Heng pondered for a moment before saying, “Gather all the sacrificial offerings and start the selection process. Then, to celebrate our success, why don’t we hold a celebration?”
He looked at Keo before him and said, “Then, invite all the believers to come over and let them enjoy the sacrifices together.”
“A-All of them?” Hearing this, Keo was instantly stunned. “Are we going to let all the believers enjoy the sacrifices?” In the past, although the Red Lotus believers had the opportunity to enjoy the sacrifices, such an opportunity was extremely rare. Not only did they need experience, but they also needed to make contributions to have a chance. But now, everyone was able to enjoy it?
Keo couldn’t help but hesitate a little, then he said, “But, in this way, the sacrifices might…”
“Might not be enough?”Chen Heng knew his concerns at a glance.
This was also a practical problem. If the number of sacrificial offerings in the Red Lotus Society was to be divided equally, it would be fine, but it should be able to barely allow everyone to enjoy it. However, how could such a thing be divided equally? In the Red Lotus Society, the ranks were strict, and the disciples with higher statuses were able to enjoy better treatment. Under such circumstances, if all the disciples were to enjoy the sacrificial offerings together, it would probably be impossible. There would not be enough sacrifices. However, this problem was easy to solve in Chen Heng’s eyes.
Chen Heng glanced at Keo and said, “Then let them prepare their sacrifices. All the believers are eligible to participate in this ceremony, but those who are internal believers or below must first provide a sacrifice. Otherwise, they will lose the right to participate.”
“Let the believers provide the sacrifice themselves?” Keo was stunned once again. Could it be done like this? He had never thought of such an operation. However, after thinking for a moment, he suddenly realized that it really could be done.
The ranks of the members of the Red Lotus Society were very strict. Under normal circumstances, the lowest rank and the most significant number of believers would have to capture the sacrifice. Still, it would be difficult for them to enjoy the benefits of the sacrifice at the same time.
Allowing them to have the qualifications to enjoy the sacrificial offerings was already a kind of benefit to them. In normal times, only those followers who had received commendations and rendered meritorious service would be able to enjoy such benefits. As for asking them to prepare their sacrificial offerings, that was not a problem.
