I was regarded as a demon god by a witch

Chapter 22 The Little Habit of Spinning the Ring and the Divine Cleansing Movement
There are wooden fences around the towns not far away. For such small towns between villages and cities, the walls are usually made of wooden fences.

This is enough, and it is also in line with the economic strength of the small town.

The cost of maintenance of the city wall that is too expensive cannot be supported by the annual public tax of this small town.

That is a gold-swallowing divine beast.

A lot of money is flowing in, but it can only be wasted.

Because of things like city walls, it is very useful in wartime, but it is a waste of money in peacetime.

In addition, behind the wooden fence wall, there is a wooden tower with a lookout soldier and two archers on it.

Heilang raised the curtain of the car and glanced at the soldiers on the towers of the town. "This town is estimated to have only 3000 to [-] residents. I didn't expect it to be equipped with a tower."

"There are two archers on it, which is really a luxury. Raising an archer is more expensive than raising three light infantry. This small town is really rich."

"It seems that the mayor here has a good way to withdraw money."

"Heartstone Witch, how did you get in?"

"You wear a wizard's robe that a witch would wear, and the city guards can tell your identity at a glance."

"If they found a witch trying to come into town, I don't know, would they let us go in."

"But even if we go in, we will be subject to a lot of restrictions."

The old witch was not ashamed, and said: "It's because people in our industry are too ethical and have a good reputation."

"Your Majesty, now is the time for you to use your first magic."

"I need your help to enter the town! I have never learned the charm technique, and now only the ring of desire in your hand can cast a charm spell."

Evita is happy, "How can I do this?"

The old witch said: "Generally speaking, it takes about several years for an ordinary wizard to learn a spell, which involves a lot of knowledge."

"But if you use magic items, you can learn a spell within a few minutes, which is why magic items are so expensive."

The old witch said: "Your Majesty, take off the [Marthorgo Ring of Desire] on the little finger of your right hand, look inside the ring, and read the words on it."

Ivita took off the ring as she said, and sure enough, she saw a line of text on the inside of the black ink diamond ring.

The old witch added: "It is magical writing, and only wizards and witches can read it."

"And without learning, you will automatically know the pronunciation of this text."

"The accompanying spells on magic items are generally engraved with magic words, but it does not rule out some malicious wizards, witches, and alchemists who will deliberately leave ugly teeth on magic items, or even lost them. A dead language of that kind as a spell to activate a magic item."

The old witch said: "Of course such people are only a minority."

"Because they will be damned."

The big witch confidently told everyone that those who like to cheat others will be punished by heaven.

Hei Lang couldn't bear to look directly at it anymore, and turned his head away.

Ivita was about to read the spell on the inside of the ring, but the old witch hurriedly stopped her. "Your Majesty, you cannot read in the carriage."

"Once said, the spell will work."

Evita pursed her lips and nodded.

The old witch said: "When you cast this spell, you may add some small movements, such as turning the ring twice with your thumb."

"My teacher told me it might enhance the potency of the spell."

"but……"

The old witch hesitated to speak, a little confused, she rarely showed such an expression. "Actually, I'm not sure if this is really useful, because I'm not sure if my teacher was playing me at the time."

"But she's been dead for too long."

"So, I can't use psychic magic to summon her spirit and pry the truth out of her mouth."

"..." Evita.

The people in the carriage were also speechless.

They were very convinced that if they could, the Hearthstone Witch would dig her teacher out of the grave.

Ivita asked curiously, "Witch of Hearthstone, how did your teacher die?"

"You are over 200 years old. Your teacher must be older. Has she reached the end of her life, or was she killed?"

The old witch sighed. "My teacher is a fourth-level witch, that is, the High Witch. But she was killed by someone, by the church."

Both Hei Lang and Raleigh looked at the old witch in surprise.

In their impression, the church has not taken such a strong action for a long time.

The old witch sneered. "What's so surprising about you? You haven't seen the church go crazy. When the church goes crazy, I suspect that all of them are possessed by demons. Except for the crown, all of you are just children , do you know about the holy cleansing movement 800 years ago?"

"When the church was not so powerful, the church established its authority by hunting witches and wizards."

"Even if most of the people killed are ordinary women, because witches are not so easy to find, or even hunted."

"Usually the church needs to pay a lot of price to kill a real witch, so they are very happy to hunt down fake witches. Anyway, as long as the people can't recognize the difference between real and fake witches, there is really no difference."

"In your impression, the reason why the current church is weak is simply because the church is too strong."

"Because it is strong, the church has become kind."

"They don't want to hurt ordinary people, nor do they want to pay too much to fight against witches, or even fight with all magic users forever."

"It's not necessary anymore."

"The church has become the ruler and the pope is the king of kings."

"A ruler who has already settled down must become gentle and kind if he wants to reduce the resistance of his subjects."

"Pretend to be a sheep."

The old witch sarcastically said: "This is nothing but the hypocrisy of the superiors to the lower classes."

Before the old witch could finish her blasphemy, Alicia, who was driving the carriage, said subtly, "Masters, we are about to arrive at the gate of the town ahead."

The old witch shut up immediately.

The blasphemous words cannot be heard by the brainless leader, otherwise, if the other party is a true fanatic, it is easy to step forward and fight her desperately.

The thumb and index finger of Ivita's left hand were placed on the [Marthorgo Ring of Desire]. He was really going to turn the ring twice before chanting the spell.

Caution is the boat.

Anyway, this action does not consume physical energy and does not waste time.

He simply complied with it.

What if the old witch's teacher didn't lie to her!

In front of their carriages, there was a group of small merchants pulling potatoes, bean pods and other crops in ox carts.

These people are being questioned by the guards, and the soldiers are calculating the total value of the crops.

Because there is a transit tax.
