Release that Witch - Chapter 354

[Chapter 352 Illusion (Part 2)]

It turns out…it turns out that’s the case!

Mayne stared intently at this phantom, and the shock in his heart couldn’t be more shocking.

The transformation ceremony of God’s Punishment Army was actually invented by witches. In order to defeat the devil, they did not hesitate to use their own kind as sacrifices… How many of them would stand up on the spot and reprimand her for being ruthless?

The final result was beyond his expectations. Half an hour later, no one stood up, and even the witch who questioned the ceremony did not openly object to Akaris’ words, she just gritted her teeth and slammed the table down, ” How ironic! Killing so many witches with my own hands is for the continuation of the witches, what could be more ridiculous than this!”

“But she’s right,” said an older witch, “we are born of mortals after all. , when all human beings perish, witches will cease to exist.”

“Conversely, no matter how many witches are sacrificed in the transformation ceremony, new witches will always appear to replace them. The more mortals, the more witches,” Elaine said. En shrugged.

“Will God’s Punishment Army be able to defeat the devil?” someone asked.

“I don’t know,” Akaris said again, “until you try, no one knows the answer. The failure of the previous two battles of divine will has already explained many problems, that is, the power of the devil is far greater than ours. , the only thing that restricts their actions is the red mist—this means that even if we create a large number of God’s Punishment Warriors, we may not be able to win the final victory.” She paused, “But you should know my style of action.”

Yi Lian En smiled and said, “Even if there is only a slight possibility, I must do my best.”

“I would like to follow you.”

“For the continuation of the witch.”

“I don’t want to admit defeat.”

Everyone stood up and saluted the Witch King .

The witch who questioned was the last to stand up and said, “I hope you are right.”

“Then it’s decided,” Akaris nodded, and it was obvious that she was not surprised by the result. “The next step is to convince other members of the federation.”

“They may not necessarily listen to you,” said Year The elder witch said, “If you want to carry out the transformation of the God’s Punishment Army without resistance, witches cannot exist as a superior privilege. The federation must be disbanded, and everything that happened in the past must be completely buried.”

“I will try my best to convince them,” Aka said. Liz’s voice was firm, “If they can’t accept it, Meteor City will promote this plan alone and recast a new order.”

Then the picture disappeared… The darkness engulfed everything again. When the light in the secret room returned to normal, Mayne found that his back was drenched in cold sweat, and his mind was extremely dizzy.

“You seem a little tired, do you need me to help you out?” Zero came over and asked.

“No, go and open the door!” He gasped.

After the metal door was pushed open, Mayne stumbled out of the hallucination, ran down the prayer platform covering his mouth, and knelt down in front of O’Brien.

“After the magic stone is activated, it will automatically display images in your mind, so it’s normal to feel uncomfortable,” the Pope said in a low voice, “I had the same reaction as you when I first came into contact with these, and I can recover after a rest. ”

Why am I fine?” Zero asked, putting her arms around the Pope’s arm.

“Because you are a witch yourself, your body has long been used to the operation of magic power,” O’Brien said with a kind smile, “whether it is endurance or resistance, witches are generally much better than ordinary people.”

It took Mayne a long time to calm down. He

took a breath, “Is this the… origin of the church?”

“That’s right, Akaris then led Fallen Star City to fight against the witches of the other two cities, and finally won the victory, making a new rule—witches are no longer The God’s Chosen One who is high above, but an evil person who was lured by the devil to fall. This war lasted for nearly a hundred years, and it is called the Battle of Faith in the history books.”

“Has she lived that long?”

The pope shook his head, “Shortly after the establishment of the church, Acharis died with another extraordinary person. The second pope inherited her will and continued to lead the army to fight until the other two factions were completely subdued—— It is a pity that this battle severely damaged the vitality of the three cities, and almost lost their control over the world. Mortals who were unwilling to participate in the Witch War began to take root in this narrow continent, leading the local people to reclaim and build, and gradually formed the current The Four Great Kingdoms.”

For some reason, O’Brien became more energetic as he spoke, and even his voice became coherent, no longer feeling weak like before.

“Although the church has cleaned up those remnants many times, including mortals who do not belong to Falling Star City, the secular pattern has been formed. Due to the lack of follow-up, the church failed to complete the unification of the mainland after all. All this is due to the Witch King He

died too early.”

“Nataya, whom she regarded as a friend, not only did not accept her plan, but also suddenly attacked Acharis at the meeting, and this scene was recorded in the complete scriptures.” The Pope sighed He took a deep breath, “If she was still alive, the battle of faith would have ended fifty years earlier. At that time, the church could take advantage of the situation to unify the continent after accepting all the witches. No one would have thought that this delay would be so long.”

Mayne Wipe off the sweat from his forehead, “Your Majesty, I don’t understand one thing. Why are the popes in front of us all witches, but all the popes in the back are ordinary people?”

“Zero, step down first,” O’Brien was silent for a moment said later.

“Yes.”

He opened his mouth slowly after the pure one left, “Because of cowardice and timidity.”

“What… what?” He was stunned, wondering if he had heard it wrong.

“No, child, you heard me right.” O’Brien seemed to have read his mind, his eyes sparkled, as if he had returned to his youthful appearance, “In order to restore the witch’s power after defeating the devil.” Glory, Acarice once stipulated that the Pope must be held by an extraordinary person. However, extraordinary witches are very rare, and it is not always possible to find a suitable partner. Later, there were some outstanding ordinary witches who served as popes—however cowardly and timid Just like a poisonous snake in the heart, once it appears, it cannot be stopped. As a mortal, the archbishop is afraid that one day he will be liquidated by the oppressed witch, so he directly usurped the Pope’s throne.”

Mayne’s eyes widened, UU reading www.sonicmtl.com ” So the subsequent Popes are all…”

“That’s right, we are all cowards who stole the fruits of the witch’s sacrifice,” the Pope breathed out, “No matter what happens in the future, the Church will bury this secret forever.” He After a pause, “As for the truth about the battle of divine will, it’s all recorded in the Privy Temple. Now, you are responsible for all of this, so keep going. Even giving up…is a wise choice.” After

saying these words Finally, his whole body suddenly relaxed, as if he had taken off a heavy load, and he was lying on the cart with his whole body.

give up?

If I give up, who else can take over this seat?

But before Mayne had time to think about it, he had already discovered something wrong with O’Brien—his physical condition took a turn for the worse, and the energetic appearance just now seemed to be just a flashback, but now his eyes are rapidly spreading, and the light is dimming a little go down.

“Your Majesty, Your Majesty O’Brien!” Mayne stepped forward and shook him anxiously, but he just stared blankly at the ceiling, his lips slightly opened and closed, as if he was muttering something.

At the last moment, Mayne seemed to hear the other party say, “Son, I’m sorry.”
