Chapter 124: The Power of Beyond Understanding
"Harauth, is that the commander-in-chief of the rebels? You call him Your Majesty, is he king?
Simon frowned and stared at Mongel in front of him, his tone a little cold.
"That's right, he's king. Although he ...... The habits are not very good, but he is indeed a good king. ”
Mungel pondered for two seconds, then said.
"Go on and say something crucial. ”
Simon tapped the table with the communication stone in his hand and motioned for Mungel to continue.
"About three months ago, His Majesty Haraus came to my land, and proclaimed his thoughts, saying that he was going to overthrow the rule of the present four kingdoms and establish a great empire ruled by monarchs and commoners, and he also performed miracles, declaring that it was the power given to him by the true gods, and that all the gods that exist are false gods who have stolen the throne......"
"Wait! Overthrow the Four Kingdoms and establish a great empire? Even say that the gods are false gods? These words are just believed by the illiterate commoners and serfs, but you are a formally educated nobleman, how can even you believe these things?"
Ford frowned and retorted to him, slightly dissatisfied, after all, he used the fighting spirit of the thunder system, and needed to believe in the existence of the thunder god Turnley and accept its gift, at this moment, he heard someone say that his faith was nothing, so he was naturally very dissatisfied, so he almost didn't say a word and gave it to him.
"Lieutenant Ford is right, why would you believe this ridiculous lie?"
Simon asked, leaning over at Mongel.
"Ridiculous lies, hehe, that's what I thought at first, and even sent my patrols and troops to arrest him, until I saw it with my own eyes...... That miracle. ”
When Mengel spoke, there was a bit of complexity in his eyes, and there were some indescribable emotions.
"Miracles, what kind of miracles, ordinary magic tricks or magic tricks shouldn't fool you, a high-ranking warrior, right?"
Simon raised his eyebrows and asked suspiciously.
"That's right, it's an extremely powerful force, neither magic nor fighting energy, but it's natural, it's immune to all fighting energy and magic attacks, within a radius of a hundred meters, any fighting energy, any magic will lose its effect, even if it's as strong as high-level mages and warriors, it's no different from ordinary people in this field. ”
"Oh, how can there be such power in this world? That's really evil. Simon touched his chin.
"So I said, it's a miracle, all the gods are false gods, and sooner or later the true gods will come back and put all the false gods to death. Monger didn't shout, but his tone was still not friendly.
"Even if his strength doesn't belong to magic and vindictiveness, you would believe him so easily? How could the lord of a state act so hastily? What else is there to hide, hurry up!" Simon keenly found the unreasonableness in the matter, with his dignified marquis, how could he rebel so easily with his own troops?
"The rest is one of the parts of my vow, and if I break it, my soul will not be accepted by the true God, so I can't tell you. Mongel shook his head, refused to answer Simon's question, and fell silent.
"Well, forget it. Let's take him down and lock him up first, and send him to His Highness when the war is over. ”
Simon knew as soon as he heard the content of the oath, he couldn't ask about it today, and the consequences of breaking the oath were much greater than extorting confessions by torture, and if Simon was allowed to choose, he would choose to remain silent.
Two soldiers stepped forward to set up Mungel and was about to take him back to the cell, but Simon suddenly stopped him.
"Before you get taken away, I want to ask you two more things. Simon said.
"Say, I'll see what the question is before I decide if I will answer you. Mungel continued to look indifferent.
"I want to know why you suddenly spoke, and why you are willing to tell us about you, is it just because I scolded you, or is it because of some other reason?"
Simon said in a deep voice, and Mongel's opening surprised him a little, so he was going to ask.
"No, I've heard curses that are hundreds of times more vicious than what you said, and there are two reasons why I spoke up, one is that I think our army's approach is indeed a little incorrect, and I, as a general, can't escape the blame, but in order to mobilize the emotions of the soldiers, we can only promise them to rob after the war, but generally the objects of their robbery are nobles, and I have given up my aristocratic status, so it is not too much of a burden.
"The second point is because, I have noticed what you said, that every commoner in your territory is not hungry, that everyone has the ability to feed himself, that there are no beggars in the streets, that there are no rats in the streets, that everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, and that every household does not have to suffer from cold and hunger, is that true?"
Monger answered Simon and asked his question at the same time.
"Yes, if you're still Lord of Ellerdeig, you're still entitled to visit here and see what we're proud of. Simon's mouth lifted and a smile appeared.
"It's good, I've always wanted my people to live like that, but there will be people who are unhappy anyway. So Master Simon...... What a strange name! I want to ask you, what awaits me?"
The hideousness on Mongel's face was completely gone, replaced by a warm smile.
"When the war is over, I will hand you over to the municipal court, and I don't know how the court will sentence you, but you have committed crimes against humanity, war crimes, and massacres, and what awaits you is the maximum death penalty. Simon sighed and waved his hand, letting the guards take him away.
Mongel laughed, jumped on the shoulders of the two guards, and headed for the prison.
"Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to tell you! Our Majesty's only bad habit is to eat people, especially the flesh and blood of the transcendents. ”
Monger stopped suddenly, turned to Simon, and left under Simon's gaze.
"A cannibal? That should be spurned by the world. Simon's eyes are determined, even if his next opponent is an unknown and powerful master.
"Is the interrogation record recorded?" Simon asked, glancing back at the recorder behind him.
"Report to the division commander, all the records have been recorded, and this will be sent to His Excellency Charles. The recorder picked up a long piece of parchment and showed it to Simon.
"Very well! Let's go back to headquarters, there's a lot more to do!"
Simon complimented the recorder, then patted Ford on the shoulder, and the two left the interrogation room side by side.
............
"Lord Lucius...... Is there anyone going to come to our rescue? We've been in our current position all day, and we haven't had a bite to eat. ”
On the path of the South Gate Pass, Lucius and his party were still trapped there, unable to move.
"Wait, wait...... Someone is bound to come. ”。
Lucius, who was in red armor, said weakly.
They seem to have been forgotten by the world, and people on both sides think that they are dead, and naturally no one will come to save them.
