Book Six, The Road Chapter Eighty-Four: On the Strength of Weakness
"Your Majesty, can't proceed yet?" Lancelot asked the Pope after he walked out of the cell.
"Although I mainly borrowed the mental power accumulated by the Glory Castle for hundreds of years, summoning the angel still consumed too much power in the ring. Now I am not sure that I can fully extract his vitality... But as long as I go to Glory Castle, I only need to use Glory Castle
The ring should not be able to recover after a long time.”
The pope shook his head, gasped, and said lightly. "So he can live a little longer, be careful, and don't let him commit suicide, although he doesn't look like a suicide..."
"Knight Talis has applied to me, hoping that he can complete the last step of the plan... She will take the extracted vitality and the hilt of the sword to Oufu..."
"So you told her our plan? No wonder..." The Pope was surprised. "But this kind of thing... I shouldn't let anyone know except you and me, why are you..."
"Your Majesty, please rest assured. She knows the importance of making choices. She has made her own choice, so she makes that request to me..." There was a hint of sadness on Lancelot's ancient Jingbubo's face.
"Yeah, that's right. I can see." After a while of silence, the Pope nodded, with a hint of relief on his face. "It's hard for her, she's a good child... I know she must have been very big.
The determination. The choice made for the stability of the entire continent and for the future of mankind is a very strong and weak child. After completing this task, her pure soul will definitely go to heaven..."
"A simple, pure, but strong child... Yes, her soul must be qualified to go to heaven. It is more qualified than old men who are used to intrigue and play tricks..."
The voices of the two were not deliberately lowered. The guards around were dozens of meters away, and no one dared to eavesdrop on this place. Moreover, this was the Glorious Castle, and they were the top experts, whether it was magic or anything
No matter how skill or exquisite peeping methods are, they cannot hide their feelings.
However, no matter how sharp their feelings were, they didn't seem to notice that there was a thin metal piece sticking to the iron wall on one corner of the steel prison.
It's just a thin, small piece of metal, the same color as the outer wall. And it's just a very ordinary piece of metal, without any magic, so neither Lancelot nor the Pope found it. If there is anything about this piece of metal
If it is unusual, it is connected to a thin golden thread, which is buried in the soil.
In the distance, in a room in the Glorious Castle, the golden thread poked out from the ground and extended to a small metal cylinder on the table. The metal cylinder looked like a cup in a funnel state, and the two cardinals looked strange.
Looking at it, from that came all the sounds that had just been in the steel prison, including the dialogue between Lancelot and the Pope.
There is indeed no magical peeping method that can hide from the Pope and Lancelot in the Glorious Castle. Even the Hawkeye technique unique to the Necromancer is impossible. But they did not use any magic, but this kind of
It's very simple, primitive way without the slightest magic. This is a small prop for the dwarves in the Calendo to deliver sounds in underground mines. Sometimes these little things are far more useful than some spiritual magic.
Bishop Adra's expression was like a country bumpkin who had just seen magic, all of whom were shocked and incredible. "What... I didn't expect... Lord Akibad predicted that it was... I don't believe it..."
Bishop Inham's face was filled with a layer of haze that was hard to see through, gloomy and thick as if it was about to drip out of water.
"Thanks to you that you have already expected that you have prepared these things. I didn't expect that even my Majesty would hide it from me... He and Lancelot wanted to extract the power from that boy...", but what does it have to do with the hilt of the sword?
?What else do they want to go to Oufu to do... "
"Just ask other people."
“Ask who?”
"Of course I'm asking those who can go to heaven... But I think I must use a more tactful way..."
Ou Fu.
At dawn, Lord Polugan received several reports from Celeste, and he immediately jumped up from the bed where he had only slept for three or four hours and rushed to Sedelos.
There have been many reports from Celeste. Every time Sedelos reports, he will treat them carefully. In order to lay these leads in the heart of the church, the energy and cost are very huge.
Yes, but this is also worth it. Each report is extremely heavy. This time it is undoubtedly the heaviest, because these are the last reports.
The words reported were consistent and strange, and there were a lot of confessions mixed in panic words, and the handwriting was also very confusing. It can be seen that the person who wrote the letter was not panic but was very confusing. Although there were a lot of confessions after repeated repetition.
and apologize, but the main meaning is basically expressed. They all said that they will never work for Oufu from now on. The money from Sedelos received before will be returned or donated to the church for atonement. I hope Sedelos
The city lord will not look for them again from now on.
No matter what kind of reason, they dare not betray the great God again.
These letters are the same reason, and they all say they have seen miracles with their own eyes.
No matter how great the temptation of interests or the great coercion is, it is not worth mentioning under the power of faith, especially if it can be seen with your own eyes, it is unquestionable, and people instinctively feel the shocking faith. Celester has many spies,
But there are only a few reports, and the others dare not even write them.
"Angel? Phoenix? Is there such a thing? Are these guys having collective hallucinations?" Lord Bolugan stared at the bull's eyes, extremely puzzled.
Sedelos closed his eyes after reading the report, thought for a long time before he slowly let out a long breath and said, "The ancient elf empire has this summoning magic, which is just a mixture of natural magic and elemental magic.
The magical life body he created seems to be a gift from Moril to them... The real Phoenix does not exist on the continent..."
"That angel...is there really a god in this world?"
"What god? God is just created by man. That angel thinks it is just a condensation of the earth's things." Sedelos sneered. "When this capital of faith was built, the Pope Jelassio was built at that time.
Si Yi set up a huge magic circle on the foundation, and traveled thousands of miles to invite some strange guys to arrange architectural layouts from the Far East, so the glorious castle can absorb some of the spiritual power emitted by people's faith and worship.
Storage. Over the past few hundred years, I have received worship from hundreds of believers, and buried my bones in them. There are hundreds of cardinals, each of which is the great master of white magic. The power accumulated over the past few hundred years
, it should be no problem to transform into an angel that can fight against the summoning magic of the ancient elves."
"But... it is impossible for Magnus to support and condense such mental power alone... Could it be that he got the Ring of Kings in Egrenel... Only Deken spent a lot of effort to do it back then?
Only this thing is possible…”
"Master Lord, although that angel is fake, I think the impact on us is true." Lord Bolugan brought the problem back to a more substantial direction. "This is not only a spy that has spent a lot of effort on us.
They were all inspired..."
"Yeah, I understand what you mean." Sedelos took a long breath. "When the Phoenix fought with the Angel, the loss of the Glorious Castle was certainly not small, but what they got was the hearts of the people... All religious countries in the Western Continent have come to this point
It is entirely a discus, and the cohesion of the church may reach its peak in hundreds of years through this miracle.”
"Hey... it's obvious that people are made, but they can control people like this... It's such a strange thing." Lord Bolugan shook his head, feeling a little moved, as if he wasn't a human.
Sedelos snorted coldly and said, "People are very weak things. Therefore, they live in groups and imagine things like gods, faith, beliefs, and persistence to entrust themselves to belong, giving themselves a kind of illusion.
A sense of security. In order to maintain this illusion, the result is that I can only be led by the illusion I imagined. This is a common problem for most people who are mediocre in this world. However, even if it is boring and weak, this
However, the weakness of the vast majority of people has become a huge force that can change the direction of history.
"As long as you make good use of this opportunity, Celeste can integrate all the forces of the entire Western continent. This time, both the army itself and the morale of the army are different from last time. It's a pity that Sangde
The mineral deposits in the Fez Mountains have not been mined yet... You go to the Tower of Tooth first and discuss with Master Adlied, bring enough teleportation scrolls over. If necessary, we can only ask them to come and participate in the battle directly..."
Lord Bolugan scratched his head and replied: "I actually told Master Adlied before, but they..."
"I know they don't want to directly participate in the dispute between us and the church, but now they can only do this. As long as there is such a day, they can really come and help me. I can agree to any conditions."
"Can you agree to any conditions?" Lord Bolugan's eyes almost flew out.
"Yes, even if I divide half of the mining area of the Sandefis Mountains and help them mine, I'm willing." Sedelos' tone seemed dull, but his anxious aura could not be concealed.
"It seems that there is no need to tell them like this first. The most basic element of negotiation is to not let the other party see our bottom line." Lord Polugan looked at Sedelos carefully and asked.
"Isn't this what you taught me? What's wrong with you? Lord City Lord."
Sederos was stunned, and he also noticed some abnormality in his own eyes. He sighed and said, "I don't know if it's intuition, I always feel that something that goes beyond our preparatory and control will happen..."
"Intuition?" Lord Polugan's eyes widened even wider. He really didn't believe that such a word would actually be so rational, firm and independent, from the Lord of Seedros, who often looked more like a rational machine.
Said it out of your mouth.
Such an ambiguous concept is clearly synonymous with weakness...
