Chapter 34 Turning Point

The two stood still, staring at each other on the desolate gray wilderness.

Leqio carefully scanned the burly young priest - black robe, black hammer, black horse, and dark gold armor.This is the symbol of the Church of the "Eternal Lord".

"Big liar!" He Qiangxian yelled, "I didn't expect you to be so smart. I thought you were only a croaking soft-footed toad!" He drew out a pair of short swords, and his eyes were full of bloodthirsty fighting spirit!The opponent's strength and equipment are far above him.There is no winner in this battle!But even if you fail, you can't be humiliated!Isn't heroic destruction exactly what the god Serotta taught?He prayed in his heart: "Supreme Serotta! See your servant make the last sacrifice for you in the world!"

The pastor on the opposite side spoke: "You lunatics of the evil god Serotah, how dare you act recklessly in the pastureland of the Lord of Eternity! Today I will follow the will of the Lord and arrest you. Throw down your weapons quickly, or the wrath of the Lord will And the curse must befall you lowly mortal!"

"Hahahaha." Leqio almost bent his waist with a smile: "Who are you big liars? Do you think I don't know the details of your church? You can only use horrible doomsday rumors and exaggerated promises to lure What can you foolish fools do? Can you make mountains collapse? Can you make storms rage? You can't!"

He continued to rebuke in one breath: "What else can you do other than cheating with those nobles and using the so-called God's will to force the poor peasants to give up their will to resist? Have you ever destroyed civilization? Have you ever reshaped mountains and rivers? No? No! What else will you do besides buying cheap people’s hearts and bribing greedy officials with money of unknown origin? Can you…”

"Shut up! Shut up!" The pastor shouted angrily, "You lunatics who collude with demons and only destroy and destroy, today I will completely purify you on behalf of the benevolent eternal master!"

"Hahahahaha." Leqio laughed fearlessly: "Collude with demons? Hahahahahaha. The supreme god Serotta needs to collude with demons when he wants to destroy something? Hahahahaha, you guys Hypocritical guy, full of kindness and love, but actually full of conspiracy and selfishness! Don’t think that your rhetoric to deceive ignorant people can deceive others! You think that you are colluding with demons, eliminating dissidents, and buying and selling souls. ?"

"Shut up!!" The angry priest quickly chanted a few incantations and pointed at Leqio.

A strange force penetrated into his ears, and he saw the pastor's lips moving, but he couldn't hear a sound—he was hit by the "deafness spell"!

Before he could react, the priest's second spell came one after another!

With a whimper, it was pitch black all around, and I couldn't see my five fingers when I put my hand to my face!The deep darkness seems to isolate the human soul in an infinite void.

But Leqio knew that this was an illusion, this "deep darkness" could only cover a radius of 1 foot (about 40 meters).He's 30 feet away in a single leap, and it only takes a few jumps to get out of that range!

With a bang, the ground shook violently.Although he can't hear, relying on the ability of a wanderer, he can feel slight vibrations with his steps.Now the vibrations on the ground were extremely rapid and getting more and more violent—the priest had already charged behind on the black horse that had cast the acceleration spell!

quick!Hurry up!

He was deeply enveloped by the darkness spell, unable to see, and was hit by the deaf spell.There is no way to avoid the priest's high-speed attack.

Fight!He turned his heart and jumped back!

The howling wind slammed into the body!

The bones cracked and the internal organs burst.

Palik galloped out of the range of the deep darkness technique, and he had a special ring that allowed him to see normally in the darkness technique.The hammer hit the assassin just now, and he was finished!

Suddenly he felt that the heavy hammer in his hand was a little heavier than usual, and he glanced back.

That emaciated assassin actually clamped the hammer between his hands and feet and didn't let it go!His nose and mouth were full of horrific blood, and his eyes were opened ferociously, but he still didn't die!

Suddenly he raised his hand, and a dagger turned into cold light and shot at it!

Palik tried his best to tilt his head, and the dagger pierced through half of his ear and shot over.

"Go to hell!" Palique, frightened and angry, slapped the assassin on the forehead, and the power of the "fatal damage technique" rushed into the assassin's body.

Leqio fell to the ground limply like a broken pillow, his life was fleeting.

"Supreme God Serotta." He prayed weakly: "I have tried my best."—In a trance, God cheered in his soul.

He died out of breath.

Palik turned and dismounted, and hurriedly healed his wounds.Then he walked to the corpse, and cursed viciously: "Damn the heathen who died ten thousand times! How dare you be so presumptuous to the messenger of the Lord! I really shouldn't kill you! You should be roasted on a slow fire for a whole morning! Let I hear your beautiful wailing and begging for mercy!"

He was furious and cursed non-stop with the most vicious words, and swung a heavy hammer violently at the corpse, smashing the torso into blood and fleshy mud all over the ground.If he hadn't needed to bring the head back, he would have trampled that head into a rotten watermelon.

Harmonwell Town, in the Baron's room.

Palick offered the Assassin's head.

The old baron, who was lying listlessly on the bed, showed a good spirit like a flashback. He panted excitedly: "Great, great. You are indeed a talent, Palik. I wrongly blamed you before."

Palick was secretly happy, but saw Grimm next to him showing a trace of hatred.

The old baron was already weak, and now he lost too much blood, and he was almost unable to hold on.At this moment, his complexion was abnormally flushed, and he said to the old housekeeper out of breath, "Go get the paper and pen."

Bringing a pen and paper, the old baron wrote down a few words with trembling hands.As soon as the writing was finished, the breath was relaxed, and the person passed out.

Palik, Grimm, and the old butler leaned forward and saw that it was a will—after my death, my nephew Palik will take over the territory and inherit the title of baron.

Grimm's face turned pale in an instant, and he stepped forward forcefully, trying to grab the will to see what happened.

Suddenly, the old butler grabbed the will and stepped aside and shouted, "You can't tear it up!"

Palique was also surprised, fearing that the will would really be torn up by Grimm, he quickly grabbed Grimm.The strong priest was so powerful that he nearly toppled the thin mage.

The two stared at each other rigidly!

The atmosphere in the room was extremely solemn.

After a long time, Grimm said with difficulty in a trembling tone: "I, I don't want to tear it up. I just want to see what happened."

Palick sneered and said, "Don't look any further. Everyone saw clearly just now that I am the heir to this territory. Grandmaster Grimm." The word "big" was extremely awkward and full of irony. .

Grimm trembled uncontrollably, and yelled, "Why?! Why did this happen?!"

He yelled frantically: "Gods! Why is this?!" and rushed out the door.

"Dang-dang-dang--" the distant bell rang in the town, which was a signal to tell everyone to gather in the small square.The people who had just been ordered to return home in order to hunt down the assassins came out puzzled and slowly gathered towards the small square.

There is a small platform with a height of one and a half people on the small square, where the lord can issue announcements and announce decrees.Now standing on it is the future heir of this territory - Palik!Although the old baron was only in a deep coma and died.But he could no longer restrain his impulse, and immediately ordered someone to ring the ancient bell on the lord's small castle, calling everyone in the town to gather.He is going to announce a major order!

He stood quietly on the platform, watching the crowd slowly gather, from a few sparse people to a crowded large group, from quiet watching to buzzing noise.

What a glorious feeling! ——These people, their bodies will be controlled by me as the lord!These people, their souls will be governed by me as a priest!Both body and mind will be under my control.What a great combination of power and church!

The identities of the secular lord and the leader of the church are about to be combined on me alone!What a wonderful feeling!Words cannot describe it at all!No wonder those archbishops have meddled in secular politics, desperately crowding out other churches and even crowding out each other—think about it, all the people here are about to kneel at my feet, and my will will override their bodies. Above the soul, become the supreme ruler of this territory!Great Lord!The excitement, joy, and overwhelming sense of glory are almost unbearable!Yes!The joy is unbearable!Perhaps only the Lord can feel better than this.Then I shall have a happiness second only to that of the Lord.

"Hehehehe..." He was so excited that he couldn't control himself, and laughed softly.It seemed that the Lord of Eternity was sending down dark golden light to cover himself, branding that holy blessing into his soul.It seems that he has transformed himself into a twelve-winged angel standing on the side of the mighty god, one person under one man and ten thousand people above him, and he is about to lead countless armies to conquer the distant heathen country, turning their country into infinite scorched earth, Their lives turned into red dust, and their souls were thrown into the deepest purgatory!Engrave the power of God and your own glory in the glorious volume of history!

Flick was accompanied by a small group of people to the small square.Now she has obtained the second-level divine arts bestowed by Elicia, the god of water elements, plus some medical techniques learned from Dong Hezi's mentor, and can already deal with most diseases and injuries in the territory. People's high praise and support.As long as you go out, you will always be accompanied by curious or enthusiastic people.Of course, there are also some people who want to establish a good relationship with her in order to obtain more benefits.But she didn't care about these, and even wanted to take this opportunity to use Goddess Elicia's tome to educate them.

The priest standing on a small platform not far away cast a fierce and arrogant gaze here.It seems that we will have another contest with him today.But the old baron didn't like him all the time. Why did he order someone to ring the big bell to summon us today?And the soldiers next to him bowed their heads to him?Looks like something big has happened.Is the old Baron dead?

The thought surprised Flick herself, but she hadn't had time to pray to Goddess Elicia.After the pastor above waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, he began to speak: "Today, on behalf of the baron, I want to announce two important news to you! The first one is that the baron was assassinated by the despicable people, and their plot almost succeeded. But benevolence The Eternal Lord saved our baron! The head of the assassin has been dedicated to the baron by me!"

Everyone was in an uproar, and the small square was full of noise.This news surprised everyone. They didn't know who would murder a little baron in a backcountry?However, this news did not give them too much impact, so the spirit of gossip appeared spontaneously, and everyone began to discuss and speculate that it was the lord's conspiracy and the conflict of interests between him and the baron.

Palick was very dissatisfied with the performance of the townspeople, they were like aunts who had nothing to do after dinner, gathered together to chat about private affairs and spread bizarre rumors.Treating such a major political event as a child's play, as if I have become a gossip who is the source of rumors!

So he loudly announced the second shocking news: "Because of my achievements! The baron made a will and decided that after his death, I will inherit his title!"

Everyone was in an uproar!Exclaimed voices, stunned expressions, and fierce arguments erupted together.

Palik was very satisfied with this effect, watching everyone surprised, discussing and even arguing for him seemed to let a layer of light illuminate him.He raised his head proudly, and squinted down at the Priest of the God of Water - Flick.

You and your gods are finished!He couldn't help thinking: Now that I have gained power, will I still give you a chance to gain a foothold?You secretly humiliated me, today I will repay it twice!Almighty Lord is most just!

So he uttered an even more shocking sentence: "Now I order you! Give up the belief in the evil god of water elements! Put yourself in the name of the only true god—the Lord of Eternity! Be her most humble servant!"

He declared aloud: "Otherwise, I will take back your fields with the power of the lord and drive those who don't believe in the land from this land! Listen, I will issue a decree right now-anyone who wants to convert The people of the Lord must expel all worshipers of evil gods! All idols, altars and related things of evil gods must be destroyed! Otherwise, they are disrespecting the Lord and heretics! So take your tools now and destroy the evil god of water element outside the city altar! Do it now!"

Everyone exclaimed together.Because this decision is crazy!They stared angrily at Palick on stage, and several young men almost objected.But their mouths twitched a few times and they held back, because the lord does have the power to drive disobedient people out of his territory!Although they were extremely dissatisfied, they did not dare to offend the future lord.

So everyone turned their heads to look at Flick, leaving her in the center of the vortex!Some people looked at her with expectations, hoping that she would have the ability to stop her; some people looked at her anxiously, fearing that she would be persecuted; of course, a very small number of people looked at her with glee, seeing how miserable she was under the shadow of another god's power ending.

It is not uncommon to force people to change their beliefs.It's just that they all rely on abnormal violence such as war to complete.Such blatant use of power to coerce is indeed very rare.Under normal circumstances, in order to balance the interests of all parties, the lord will not be too biased towards a certain god.Even if there is a bias, it will not do things absolutely, let alone expel all other gods from the territory.But there is no law saying that you cannot be evicted!

Palike looked at Flick more and more complacently: Get lost!Pagan priest.Go into the wilderness and feed the gnolls!Your lowly beliefs are worthy of other people's rations!Only the most holy and the only eternal Lord is the supreme true God!You believers of evil gods should be tied to the stake, let the fire burn your filthy bodies, and let the devil take away your vile souls!

He was cursing viciously, but the priest of the god of water element shouted loudly: "How do we know if what you said is true or not? We want to see the lord, we want to know the truth!"

Palick sneered in his heart, but his face was full of "humble" smiles.He called the old butler from the audience to the stage, asked him to tell the townspeople about the situation at that time, and took out the will.

After everyone learned the truth, they all looked at Flick in despair.The God of Water Yuan's care for this place is still vivid, and they really don't want to give up.But they really don't have the power to fight against a lord's decree.

Flick seemed unusually calm, not affected by everyone's emotions at all.She thought for a while, and suddenly said loudly: "You don't have the power to issue any decrees yet!"

Palik looked calm, but he snorted coldly in his heart: I didn't?This old woman must have a fever in her head.

But Flick said loudly again: "The lord's will is that you can only become a baron after he dies, and then you have the right to issue decrees. But now the lord is just in a coma, he has not died! And the lord once put him in a coma. The authority was granted to Master Grimm. The lord did not revoke this authorization before he fell into a coma, so now there is only one person who has the right to announce decrees——that is Master Grimm! You! You have no power to formulate and issue any decrees yet!"

Everyone's face is full of joy,!They congratulated each other loudly with wide-eyed smiles.Some people cheered softly.Yes, the power still rests with Grimm.

The situation took a turn for the worse, and Palik watched all this with a livid face. He took a few deep breaths and tried his best to maintain a "humble" expression.Then he said calmly: "You're right, ma'am. I really don't have the right to order you, now." He placed the word "now" heavily, and then hurried away alone.

"What? I'm still the acting lord?" Grimm asked the old butler again ecstatically. One day fell from the heaven of hope to the hell of despair, and then returned from the cold hell to the heaven of power. What is the ups and downs of life now? It's so thrilling!It's incredible!

"Yes." The old butler suppressed his distaste for the little mage, and said calmly; "You still have the right to exercise the power of the lord." He reminded: "Before the baron dies!"

Grimm laughed loudly, and said happily, "Then I declare that Palick will be kicked out of this town!"

"No!" The old butler said calmly, "He is the baron's nephew. Except for the baron himself, no one else has the right to expel him at will. Unless there are special reasons."

Grimm was stunned for a moment, and immediately replied: "Of course there is a special reason! I suspect that he wants to murder my uncle so that he can become a baron here soon! So I want to expel him!"

"I'm afraid it won't work." The old housekeeper still objected: "This is just your own idea, and it may not be the case. Besides, the soldiers don't have the guts to expel a priest who has a fourth-level magic from the city."

Grimm was pacing back and forth anxiously, cursing constantly: "You bastard! Do you want him to stay here like a ghost? When I saw his hypocritical expression, I wanted to smash his head!"

The old housekeeper sneered in his heart: It's almost as good as he beat you up.But if the two of you stay in the same castle, there will indeed be a lot of trouble.Let the two separate, and it's not too late to make a decision after the baron wakes up.So he said, "If you really suspect that Pastor Palick has the intention of murdering the baron, then you can ask him to move out of the castle and have someone guard the castle and the baron's room side by side to prevent him from entering or leaving."

"Good! Good!" Grimm was overjoyed, and shouted again and again: "Get him out of this castle immediately! And immediately order Tiwedes to bring someone over to guard my uncle's room in the castle! That arrogant guy must be absolutely forbidden to enter here !"
