Chapter 39: Conspiracy
"Prophet, I always thought you were hard-hearted, I didn't expect that after this kid was beaten like this, you would lose your temper!" After receiving the prophet's warning words, Mueller didn't care, if the other party had a way to take him, he wouldn't sit on the bed and close his eyes now.
"Mueller, you bastard, what's going on at me, the Prophet is the most honorable person in the soul land, how can you be disrespectful to him!"
Seeing that Mueller's expression was playful, Zaku couldn't help but reprimand, the prophet is the oldest person in the entire soul land, and he is the elder of everyone, if you really want to talk about seniority, Mueller still has to call the prophet grandfather, but now there is no respect in his tone at all.
"Shut up, you can't protect yourself now, if it weren't for the usefulness of keeping your waste, Lao Tzu would have killed you a long time ago!"
After hearing Zaku's words, Mueller turned his head and looked at him viciously, in Mueller's eyes, all that was left at the moment was greed, and everything else had long since ceased to exist, and since he had decided to do so today, he didn't care at all what other people thought he had.
"You will definitely be punished, and when the messenger returns, he will definitely make you pay, you wolf-hearted fellow!"
Zaku did not give up, and in his opinion, what Mueller did was outraged by everyone and God, and no one with a conscience would forgive him, and people like Müller would definitely be punished by God.
Do you know that in order to protect the peace of your soul clan, I have fought desperately in the First Tribe for twenty years, and in these twenty years, I have seen too many people sacrificed, and the skeletons that died in my hands are even more numerous, but the result? These guys will only increase. ”
Zaku's words touched Mueller a lot, he can let others say that he is crazy, but he can't say that he didn't do anything for the soul clan, in Mueller's opinion, this time he didn't do anything sorry for anyone, after all, he has given too much.
"Hey, these are the fates you have to bear when you are chosen, you can't resist it, I can't think of it, it's been twenty years, you still haven't accepted it, you're still resisting it!"
The prophet sighed slightly, he didn't expect Mueller to have such a thought in his heart, it can be said that everyone has no other choice after being chosen, the only thing they can do is to return to the tribe as the patriarch, so as to keep the peace of the soul land.
"Shut up, what qualifications do you have to say this, you made all of this, if that person wasn't your grandson, maybe the person who embarked on the road to heaven would be me!"
Mueller shouted loudly, he was full of hatred for the Prophet, he was full of pride as the chosen nine like Zaku and the others, and at the same time Mueller was also considered the most powerful of the nine at that time, but in the end, it was the Prophet's grandson who embarked on the road to heaven, how could he not be resentful.
"That's enough, you're just looking for excuses for your own selfish desires, no matter how much you provoke me, or you think I really owe you, whatever you think, the Tower of Babel hasn't reached the time when it's time to open, even I can't do anything!"
Just as Müller was about to continue, the Prophet angrily interrupted him, and after saying this, his eyes that had been open closed again, and his attitude was very clear.
"Behold, this is the prophet whom thou hast honored, and his son was the weakest of the nine of us who were chosen, and none of us thought that he could be the one who set forth on the path to heaven, but what was the result? The prophet to whom thou looketh is but a selfish man!"
Seeing that the Prophet had closed his eyes and said nothing, Mueller looked at Zaku on the side, with a maniacal smile on his face, he thought that he had done nothing wrong, that he had planned for so many years, in order to get back what belonged to him.
"Prophet, is this really the case?" Hearing Mueller's words, Zaku's resolute face also showed a trace of confusion, the Soul Land has always been a place to worship the strong, and Mueller, as the first warrior of the Soul Land, has always been a mountain in everyone's hearts.
Zaku once also took Müller as an example, and there has always been a trace of rumors on the soul land about why Müller did not enter the world behind Babel in the first place, but everyone respects the prophet, and as the days pass, this matter disappears into history, until today Müller revisits the old story.
"Zaku, some things are not as you think, I can only tell you that everything I do is for everyone, whether it is the Eight Great Tribes or the Soul Clan, they are as important in my heart, and many things, even if I am a prophet, I still can't do anything. ”
The Prophet could feel the disappointment in Zakku's tone, it might have been as Mill had said, but who could understand the bitterness in his heart? He had decided not to respond to Müller's words, this was the best way to delay time, but he had to make Zaku understand.
"Excuses, all this is just excuses, you keep saying that everyone is equally important in your heart, but the Soul Clan can survive under our protection from the enemy, while we have to face death, and maybe even become those ugly guys, what is the difference between you and me?"
Muller was still persevering, he wanted to stimulate the prophet, if the prophet had been so silent to respond to his provocations, the day of opening the Tower of Babel would be far away, although he didn't think that Chen Musu's divine envoy could come back alive, but the night was long and dreamy.
"I see!" Compared to Müller's disdain, this answer made Zaku strengthen his inner thoughts, he was like this, he never questioned the words of the prophet, after hearing this, he turned his head to look at Müller, and slowly spoke.
"We have always been fighting to defend the soul land, no matter which tribe is in trouble, the warriors of the soul clan have been fighting with them, the only difference between us is that the place where we live is different, and if we bring everyone together, the risk we need to take is extremely huge, the prophet is different from a selfish guy like you!"
Zaku spat at Muller after speaking, and he looked down on Muller's behavior at the moment from the bottom of his heart.
"Little bastard, you dare to call me, I don't know how you will feel when you hear that your Lao Tzu is dead!"
Seeing that he failed to provoke the image of the prophet in Zaku's heart, Mueller was furious, and directly kicked Zaku who was tied to the side, this kick was extremely powerful, Zaku was kicked by this mouth and spit blood, plus he was already injured, this time he almost passed out, but he was stunned and gritted his teeth and said nothing.
But just after Muller finished speaking, Zaku's whole person was like a trench, the news of Zamo's death brought him a huge shock, his father's image in his heart has always been extremely tall and grand, it is precisely because of his father's influence that Zaku will continue to become stronger, and the biggest hero in his childhood heart is his father.
"Impossible, impossible, my father is so powerful, and he is with the messenger, you lie, you lie!"
Zaku had a panicked expression on his face, he couldn't be sure whether all this was true or false, but looking at Mueller's confident expression, he felt helpless for the first time, at this time his only hope was all pinned on Chen Musu, but Mueller's next words completely shattered his hope.
"Lord Divine Envoy, he's just a little kid, I admit that the soul power in his body is indeed very strong, but in front of those enemies, what's the use of him being strong alone?
Mueller smiled presumptuously, he didn't get the exact news of Chen Musu and Zamo's death, but according to the development of things, the cliff was guarded by his elite subordinates, these people occupied a geographical advantage, and at the same time, the walls of the eighth tribe and the third tribe were also controlled by them, and Chen Musu and his party could not escape.
Even if these people are not dead, they don't want to return to the Soul Clan, then these people are no different from dead, Mueller said this to hit Zaku, and at the same time make the prophet completely dead, but after he finished speaking, the prophet still closed his eyes tightly and remained motionless.
"Hmph, the old immortal guy, now he is pretending to be dead with me, in that case, then don't blame me, there are so many people in the soul clan, if you don't agree to kill me in one day, I will kill ten, if you don't agree in two days, I will kill twenty, I want to see if you have such a compassionate heart, will you watch these people die!"
This is Muller's last bargaining chip, he has no choice, if the prophet is determined not to open the Tower of Babel, the more time drags on, the more unfavorable it will be for his current situation, in case the other patriarchs find out about his plot, these people are afraid that they will immediately cut ties with him, and then he will become the target of public criticism, and no one can save him.
"If you dare to do this, I guarantee you will never see the day when the Tower of Babel will be opened!" The Prophet still closed his eyes, even if Muller threatened him with the lives of these people, he still refused to compromise, not because he was hard-hearted, but because with his current soul power, it was very difficult to say whether he could open the Tower of Babel.
Judging from the remaining soul power in the Tower of Babel, if they can't successfully open it this time, then they may not be able to open it in the future, and they relied on the help of that person when they built this tower, so it can be said that this tower is the only way for them to connect with that world.
If the soul power on the tower is completely gone, he can't guarantee that there will be no tokens to land in this world in the future, and at the same time, the soul land they are in will also lose the protection of the Tower of Babel, and those enemies will attack them unscrupulously, and everyone will be unable to escape death at that time.
In the case of not being able to ensure that the Tower of Babel is opened one hundred percent, even if Mueller wants to kill, in order for more people to live, the Prophet still refuses his threat, Chen Musu can be said to be his hope, from Chen Musu's body, the Prophet saw a huge amount of soul power, and the intensity of that power is exactly the same as that on the Tower of Babel.
"Prophet, I can't help me if you can't think of you being so hard-hearted? You really don't want to kill those innocent people, come on, pass my order, and kill all those guys who were arrested yesterday!"
Mueller suddenly raised his voice, and then a person came in at the door, this person was slightly stunned after hearing Mueller's words, he didn't expect Mueller to really give this order.
"Patriarch Mueller, those people are all old and weak women and children!"
"If you let you go, you can go, I can't blame all this, I can only blame our prophet, they all say that he is merciful, I want to see how long he can last!"
Mueller waved his hand, and then his men left the house, all the while he watched the Prophet's expression, and he could clearly see that after he gave the order, the Prophet's face changed slightly, but he still did not open his eyes, which made his whole person frown, and in his cognition, the Prophet was not such a person.
After controlling the entire Soul Clan, he was very confident that he would be able to get the Prophet to submit, after all, he had a lot of chips, and he didn't ask too much, anyway, every time someone left, their situation didn't change, so there was no loss for the Prophet to let him go, and after he left, the whole rebellion would be quelled.
It can be said that this is the best choice, but the Prophet's tough attitude made him understand one thing, and his tough conspiracy to force the palace may not succeed.
