Chapter 161: Night Talk
"Anyway, now isn't the time to discuss this, let's discuss future countermeasures, right?" In order to avoid embarrassment, I decisively chose to divert the topic.
"Well, your kid's sentence is finally to the point, and now that even the "Twelve Demon Gods" have intervened, the nature of the whole thing has completely changed. Although I expected it to develop to this point, but damn it, these guys are too fast..."Antonla couldn't help but look sad when he said this, don't look at this guy's ordinary temper, he turns his face at every turn, but it's really rare to have such a grim expression, you can imagine how bad the situation we are facing now.
Malthus sighed lightly when he heard this, "Hey~ This is also a matter of last resort, His Royal Highness has been trying to unify the demon clan all these years, but unfortunately his strength is insufficient, and now he is finally looking forward to His Majesty's resurrection, of course, it is impossible to let go of this golden opportunity. In fact, it's not just that, since you made a big fuss about Bezukhov before, for example, all the three realms have already known about His Majesty's resurrection, and all factions have begun to take action, and the Four Highnesses are actually not the most troublesome..."
"Oh, you mean that... Hearing this, Anton couldn't help frowning.
"Of course it's the guys up there... Malthus smiled wryly, then pointed to the sky.
"Are you sure?" Anton La changed color.
"Don't forget that I'm still the chief priest of the Holy See...
"Damn, it's really big this time!" Hearing this, Anton couldn't help but wave his fist fiercely.
"I'm sorry, but what are you talking about..." At this time, Xiao Jia on the side suddenly asked, although she is a high-achieving student from the Wizard Guild, the topic we are talking about at the moment is obviously beyond the scope of her cognition.
"That is, God and the angels have noticed us... I explained to Xiaojia with a wry smile.
"No, it won't." Xiao Jia's eyes widened in surprise, and her expression was unbelievable, no wonder, after all, for a mortal, this thing was indeed too mysterious.
"This does sound a bit incredible at first glance, but since His Majesty the Demon King is sitting alive next to us at this moment, it is not surprising that there are gods and angels." Malthus took a sip and explained slowly.
"What do gods and angels look like?" Xiao Jia then asked the question, and it was obvious that as a wizard who had studied magic since childhood, these things were full of attraction to her.
"It's a bit complicated to say, strictly speaking as a religious person can't talk about God lightly...
", aren't you a demon embarrassed to say this?" Before Malthus could finish speaking, Antonla interrupted it angrily.
However, Malthus was quite calm about this, only to see it smile slightly: "I'm sorry, maybe I have been in the Holy See for a long time and developed a habit, in fact, strictly speaking, gods and our majesty do not have any entity themselves, they are closer to some kind of pure spirit, so there is no fixed image, which is why the appearance of gods in myths and legends in various places will be different. As for the angels... It's like in all kinds of pictures, with a pair of white wings, and a beautiful appearance, but when they face the enemy, they immediately become brave and ruthless..."
Malthus's voice was obviously lowered at the end, I personally understand its mentality, after all, I have witnessed the methods of angels when dealing with enemies too many times in the memories of the demon king, of course, I don't mean to defend the demons here, the attitude of these guys towards the enemy can only be more ferocious, but it is still chilling to think of the picture of a holy and flawless face cutting off the head of the opponent without hesitation.
"If the Celestial Realm does take action, they will do whatever it takes to destroy Kane, even if it means destroying a country..."Antonla said as he bit his nails, feeling that the "Red Flame King" was really anxious this time.
So we're running out of time." Malthus said.
'We?' Anton frowned, obviously aware of the mystery in the other party's words.
"Why, aren't we already on the same side now?" Malthus smiled, his near-melted face looking more and more ugly...
"I'm sorry, I didn't admit that." Anton La's eyes were full of distrust as he glared at Malthus and said coldly.
"Don't get excited, my dear "King of the Red Flame." Malthus put down the kettle and said slowly.
"It is undeniable that the two of us used to have a bad quarrel before, but now the situation has changed, I helped you kill Gragon together, which is tantamount to openly breaking with the Fourth Highness, and if the Heavenly Realm is really ready to meddle in this matter, then the matter of my undercover agent will definitely be exposed soon, so now we have the same interests, of course, you can choose to join forces to kill me, but what good can this do you? On the other hand, if we choose to cooperate, wouldn't we have a better chance of winning for each other?"
"But why should we trust you?" Antonla asked rhetorically.
"If I can lift the Holy See's arrest for you, will it increase your trust in each other?"
"Really?" A few of us were shocked to hear this, we have been in a situation where we have been exhausted from all sides these days, and if we can lift the Holy See's "crusade order" against us, it will undoubtedly greatly reduce the pressure on us, but is it possible?
"Ladies and gentlemen, please do not forget that you are now speaking to the High Priest of the Holy See today..."
"But Kane's identity has been revealed, I'm afraid you can't suppress such a big thing by yourself, right?"
Anton La couldn't help but question.
"Wouldn't it be nice to say that a few of you are dead?" Malthus said indifferently.
"Will anyone believe this?"
"Why not? Wasn't there an example of the Demon King's soul being destroyed in Bezukhov before? ”
"But that's because the opponent is Kane!"
"It's no coincidence in the world, and the current majesty is not invincible in the world, since he can do it, other forces can also do it."
"Like?"
"The souls of other demon kings, the four highnesses, really can't just say that heavenly punishment is okay. This scapegoat or a handful? ”
"But who would believe it?"
"It shouldn't be difficult to find a few corpses that are similar to yours but unrecognizable, right?"
"And what if someone questions it?"
"A devout believer ought to be convinced of what the High Priest of the Holy See has confessed, and those who do not believe in me are obviously not religious, either with ulterior motives or demonic heretics, and the Inquisition of Faith is not set up for these people?" Malthus said this with a calm and calm tone, as if he were preaching, and one almost lost sight of how terrible its content was.
"You're such a bastard... Everyone was silent for a moment, and in the end, it was Anton La who reappeared with his usual poisonous tongue.
"In order for God's care to benefit the world, sometimes extraordinary measures have to be taken." Malthus said with a solemn expression, giving the impression that he had been carrying a great deal of suffering in doing so.
