Chapter 502 Flaws in Faith

In the next five days, the number of deserters in Oyo III's military camp continued to increase. Seeing that the army was panicking and the order began to be disordered, at this time, Oyo III suddenly pulled the beavers, harpies, vampires and raven people. Come back.

Moreover, the general who was most discriminatory to foreigners in his camp was hanged outside the military camp.

King Oyo III stood outside the camp. As a knight duke, he just stood in one place alone, like a pillar of heaven and earth, attracting everyone's attention.

He said angrily: "The Creator says: You must love one another as He loves us, and you must not mistreat your fellow humans."

“The Creator says: He alone is everything and dwells in the believer.”

"The Creator says: All who believe in Him are brothers and sisters, whether Gentiles or natives. Brothers and sisters should love one another as He loves us."

"I am the emperor of the Holy Empire, and I shoulder the responsibility of protecting all believers. Under my protection, you should be united as one. But..."

King Oyo III pointed his sword at the hanged general and said: "This man twisted my orders and disobeyed my will, causing many conflicts. Today I will kill him here and let everyone watch his fate. You know the fate of believers who insult the God of all things.”

"Starting from today, all the previous unhappiness has disappeared. What I want to tell you is that the God of all things is the belief of all living beings and is the source of all truth, goodness and beauty."

"There are no humans, lizardmen, harpies, ravens or people from the Principality of Shveti here. There are only believers of the God of All Creations who unite under the emperor's banner. Our enemies are evil betrayers of faith. people."

“Everyone, my dear compatriots, please unite under the banner of the God of all things, unite under the banner of the Son of God of all things, unite under the banner of the Wife of God of all things, in pursuit of the saints road, to the path of piety.”

The emperor's speech undoubtedly revived the already low morale. At the same time, Oyo III's approach of finding and executing the scapegoat also made the aliens who originally wanted to leave begin to waver.

Although the losses caused by Ivita are still there, Oyo III has controlled the situation and once again strengthened the determination of this army.

Oyo III said loudly: "The evil wizard Ivita is an evil king who uses witchcraft and fear to rule his servants. He cannot even be worthy of the word king, because kings are chosen by God."

“The lawful king chosen by the God of all creation has both the valor to kill his enemies and the kindness to pity his enemies.”

"But Ivita didn't, because he is a very evil wizard."

Oyo III's army suddenly knew who they wanted to hate and who their target was. They were all cursing the evil wizard and representative figure Ivita.

"My hometown is a small town in the Enchanted Black Forest. It was a remote but peaceful town. But one day a witch came and everything changed. The originally harmonious family turned into quarrels every day. The horses began to Disobedient, he started to go on a rampage, and even killed two little girls in the end. Everyone in the town became very irritable, and everyone disliked each other. Violence broke out every day in the whole town. Later, we Only then did I realize that it was because a witch entered our town, and that witch did all of this."

"Wizards and witches are damned things that should not appear in this world. Why do they live?"

"Kill the evil wizard! Defend the emperor's rights! This is the responsibility given to us by our faith. We are all united by our faith. We are the Lamb of God. We must kill the evil wizard."

The universal law of holiness, which had begun to be in chaos, became orderly again and even became stronger.

Oyo III looked at this scene with satisfaction.

……

In the sky, Ivita and the Hearthstone Witch transformed into two goshawks, hovering in the sky. Seeing the army of Oyo III become united, the powerful universal law suddenly resumed: the divine expansion distance, forcing Deyi Vita and the Hearthstone Witch had to leave the sky temporarily and could only go to the nearest mountain to fall.

As soon as the Hearthstone Witch landed, she staggered and almost fell. There was sweat on her forehead. "That's terrible. Is that the law of the empire? I have heard before that our witches will feel extremely uncomfortable just by breathing in the universal law: holiness, as if we have endured the most terrible torture in the world. No. It’s true when I think about it.”

The Hearthstone Witch even noticed that just for a moment, her dark soul and light soul had weakened and needed time to recover.

She looked at Ivita and was surprised. Ivita's expression remained normal, as if she was not affected at all.

Ivetta raised her eyebrows in surprise at the Hearthstone Witch. "Really? If I hadn't seen something strange about you, I wouldn't have noticed that universal law: holiness restrains witches and wizards. For me, although I'm just a little uncomfortable, I won't be like this. Big reaction.”

The Hearthstone Witch said: "Your Majesty, you are too powerful. And almost all of the ways you obtain power are legal ways, so you won't be too targeted by the Universal Law: Divine, but I... it's different. "

“For us, if we live too long in the universal law: holiness, we will die.”

Ivita nodded. "No wonder there are almost no witches and wizards in Oyo III's army. I previously thought he preferred to use knight professions, but now it seems that it is because of universal law: sacred nature repels magic."

I don’t know where the universal law: the divine essence is located.

Ivita thought for a moment.

The Hearthstone Witch said to Ivita: "Your Majesty, the plague seeds you asked me to secretly send into their military camp's grain storehouse did not work. When their laws were at their lowest, all my magic plant seeds were destroyed. It was suppressed to the point where it couldn’t sprout, and it’s even more impossible now.”

Ivita waved her hand. "I understand. When I asked you to do that, I just wanted you to try it."

"If it's not possible, that's okay."

The Hearthstone Witch said nervously: "Your Majesty, the army of Oyo III is so high-spirited. Wouldn't it be terrible if they invaded your country?"

"Isn't there a way now without confronting them?"

"Now I have a plan to take down this army without any bloodshed."

Although Ivita didn't quite believe it, out of respect for the Hearthstone Witch, she still said, "Then tell me your plan. As long as it's not an escape plan, I can refer to it."

The Hearthstone Witch laughed loudly and said carelessly: "Of course I will not be so stupid as to run away at home. I mean, Your Majesty, let me turn into a messenger, or control a person's body to enter the military camp of Oyo III. Let's pretend Surrender to Oyo III and trick him into suspending his army's invasion of our country. When we are in the east and the Tomb King leads the army to defeat the Franks, won't we be free to deal with the emperor Oyo III?"

"In my opinion, it doesn't matter whether you win or lose in the moment. You can sell something like face if you can. It's not worth anything anyway."

"Your Majesty, what do you think?"

Ivita's face became strange. What the Hearthstone Witch said actually made some sense, but it was too naive.

Sometimes, as long as you admit defeat verbally, your military morale will be shaken.

Besides, Oyo III is not a fool.

Aren't you treating him like a fool?

Ivita looked at the Hearthstone Witch with a strange look on her face. "Forget it, then you try as you said. Hearthstone Witch, I am waiting for your good news. If you can handle this matter so easily, then you are truly worthy of being my loyal minister."

The Hearthstone Witch laughed and was ambitious. She was no longer the little witch who deceived farmers in the countryside. She now wanted to deceive kings and emperors.

"Your Majesty, please wait for me here. I promise you will be happy when I come back."

The Hearthstone Witch transformed into a vulture and left.

……

An hour later, the Hearthstone Witch came back, with a bruised nose and a swollen face, and a slash full of terrible evil energy on her body. The evil energy was already consistent with the law, the universal law: through this evil energy, the divine deeply hurt the Hearthstone. Witch. The Hearthstone Witch rushed to Ivita with a bruised face. "Your Majesty, I failed. It's too abominable. I just manipulated the puppet to sneak into their military camp, and they took control of me. They also said that I was messing up their military camp these days."

"Forget it. I told them that Alsace wanted to reconcile with the emperor, but Oyo III actually sneered and said, can two evil dragons coexist? It's just life and death. Then, they actually used a special secret method to find me In my position, Oyo III wanted to kill me on the spot, but fortunately I didn’t fight him at all and concentrated on escaping, so I was able to escape.”

Ivita was not surprised at all. He had not had high hopes. As Oyo III said, the world does not need two emperors.

Faced with himself who already wanted to get involved in the throne, Oyo III would never accept any mitigation measures from him.

Ivita said: "If I hadn't used the dark soul to modify their memories, do you think you could escape on your own? You would have died by the sword of Oyo III."

"But the universal law is too powerful. I just modified their memory for an instant, and the universal law invalidated all my modifications to their memory. Even the influence and interference were invalidated."

The Hearthstone Witch was shocked to find that she almost died just now. "Your Majesty, why did you let me go before? Since you know the gap between me and Oyo III, why didn't you stop me."

Ivita raised a brow. "You are full of confidence. If I don't let you try it, I won't be sure of the result. What if it works."

"We want to get things done with the minimum cost."

"Although the Kingdom of Alsace is large, our enemies have more and stronger resources than we do. Besides, they were already aware of my existence before you went, so you didn't think you were alerting me."

The Hearthstone Witch said: "Then what should we do now? Should we let them finish gathering here?"

Ivita smiled and shook her head: "Oyo III temporarily maintained the unity of his army with faith. He himself thought this was a clever move, but he forgot one thing, that is, faith is extremely easy to split."

“As Universal Law: Divine and Universal Law: Church, they demonstrate this process again and again.”

"It is impossible to unite everyone with the same faith and eliminate barriers. It is too easy to become extreme in faith, and it is too easy for heresies and cults to appear. Just a slight push is enough to divide faith. The church is already divided How many times? Now it seems that divisions are beginning to appear again. Such a universal law is naturally flawed and will inevitably collapse."

"I can recognize it, and I think there are people in this world who will recognize it."

Iveta stood on the hill and looked into the distance. Although he could not get close to the military camp over there now, he could still observe it from a distance.

In the military camp, there were already private discussions among the soldiers. Some of them were Protestants. They did not admit that the church and the emperor were the keys to the road to salvation. The church and the emperor were more important than the classics, so they began to discuss the emperor's quotation from the church classics just now. Error, and expanded upon it, thinking that the emperor himself did not study the church scriptures carefully, so how could he be the leader among believers?

Among them, there are still people who resist the church that the Son, the Father, and the Holy Spirit are three states, and there are three divinities. They doubt what the emperor just said, showing that Oyo III believes that there are three creators in the world. tendency.

Others were sects that recognized the Trinity, the coexistence of humanity and divinity in the Creator, and they also began to speculate about the emperor.

What's more, some people began to resist the emperor's army, carrying a large number of so-called holy objects, thinking that this was idolatry, as long as they were born, they would die, and everything that existed in the world would inevitably decay.

How can there be idolatry in the church?

Wouldn't that be the same as those churches of ordinary gods?

These marginalized people in the army have different ideas from the mainstream. They act secretly, but they always want to expand their numbers and make their perceptions mainstream.

Ivita said: "Hearthstone Witch, look at those Protestants, those who resist idolatry, and those heretics who argue about a theological term. Our emperor's army still has huge hidden dangers of division. We As long as they grasp this, they will defeat themselves."

In the dense forest on the mountain, a powerful step appeared, and he snorted coldly, "Then I really want to thank you. Mr. Ivita, you really made me notice things that I didn't notice before."

"And I guessed it right. You really don't have even a hint of respect for the God of all things."

Iveta was as calm as water and had already guessed the identity of the visitor. "The God of all things is my ancestor, and I respect Him."

"Haha haha..." Oyo III walked out of the forest, "Your behavior is completely different from when you were in the church. You are really good at acting, Mr. Ivita. At this moment, the two of us want to talk to each other." It’s really interesting to meet people who have lost their lives.”

Ivita smiled. "Really? But I have a good feeling about you. I feel that His Majesty is a good person and your character is very cheerful."

"Your Majesty, when you face me alone, aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"

Oyo III drew out his knight's sword, Universal Law: Holy descended, and the trees, leaves, land, and everything between Ivita and where he stood were all blessed in an instant.

In other words, they were blessed into holy places, holy soil, holy trees, and holy stones...

Ivita's power was suppressed to the greatest extent.

Ivita's face became serious.

The two looked at each other and were in a stalemate for a long time. The Hearthstone Witch was covered in sweat and her face turned pale. She looked left and right, "Your Majesty, let's fight two against one. We are not afraid of him. At worst, we can use your space magic to escape. We …”

Oyo III suddenly laughed and put away his knight's sword, and Ivita also laughed and withdrew his magic power.

Oyo III said to Ivita: "You're kidding. We have to decide the outcome head-on on the battlefield. What's the point of having a private fight here? Mr. Ivita, I heard that you have extraordinary magnanimity and amazing courage. I I will give you a banquet in my army, will you come?"

Ivita also smiled and said: "Your Majesty, although I am magnanimous, I am not a fool. I invite you to be a guest in the royal capital, will you go?"

Oyo III said with great regret: "Oh, then I won't invite you. I really want to thank you for allowing me to discover the weaknesses of my army and overcome them. So, the enemy is the best teacher. If you fail to subdue the enemy every time you take action, it will only make the enemy learn something. I am not like Mr. Ivita, who takes action repeatedly and only allows my army to evolve. Hahaha..."

The Hearthstone Witch was immediately furious, "You..."

Ivita stopped her and said to him calmly: "The day of decisive battle between you and me is still far away. Why bother trying to defeat the enemy?"

"Your Majesty, I have a jug of fine wine. What do you think of us each having a few drinks here?"

Oyo III was stunned, and then showed a somewhat sincere smile. "If you and I weren't enemies, maybe we would really be friends. But I also brought my own drinks. You drink yours and I drink mine. We'll drink it all right here."

Ivita said: "Okay."

At the same time, he narrowed his eyes and glanced at Oyo III. Sometimes, if you don't have to deal with it, the problem will not become serious, but if you have to deal with it, the problem may get worse.

I originally told him to listen to Oyo III.

If Oyo III did not persecute heretics, how could those heretics jump over the wall in such a hurry?

But this does not count as defeating Oyo III.

It can only be said that this emperor has never kept up with the version. He is on the wrong path. Faith is so easy to split.

All he had to do was take advantage of this weakness, and it would be enough to cause the emperor to suffer a big loss.

The two drank the drinks they carried with them in one gulp, and then they held each other's wrists. Oyo III said: "Next, I will let my archers stand on the tower for daily patrols, and never again." Strangers will be allowed to enter the military camp. These archers are from the Principality of Nirol. They have real laws and can see through any transformation. I hope Mr. Ivita will not embarrass himself, so I told you in advance."

Ivita raised a brow. "Then I would like to thank your majesty for the reminder. It's just that your majesty should disband your army as soon as possible. I think this army will fall apart in a few days. I also kindly remind you not to embarrass yourself."

Oyo III said confidently: "It will never be like this. You have already used a similar trick once. If I fall for it again, then I will abdicate and give you the position of emperor."
