Chapter 26: Wavering Faith (3)

Gray gripped his sword, and looked at Jeremi. The soul fire in his eye socket was "crackling" and burning. Shelley's eyes widened and she stood dumbfounded behind him.

Although the situation is not fully understood, Jeremy is already angry, and bruises have erupted on his forehead. Gasping heavily, clenching his teeth, he glared at Gray with wide eyes.

Around that week, the situation was still fermenting and spreading wildly.

Dean, who had been placed on a roof by the angel, widened his eyes and muttered, "I know, I know...... Sure enough, it's been tens of thousands of years, how can faith be so contradictory. It turned out that it was because we were not included at all...... Hehehehehe......"

The tears flowed uncontrollably. Also stunned were the other five pastors who were with him.

"Phew!" the mallet spat hatefully, "This Holy Spirit is worse than our god of war." Although our god of war can't mention anything, we know that whatever he mentions, it will definitely cover the dwarves, although it is useless. ”

"There are no human beings in the holy faith of the Holy Spirit?" Irene was stunned: "So, what are they preaching their faith to us for all these ten thousand years?"

Richie was equally stunned, his gaze slowly darting towards his guardian angel, Deria.

Delia looked dazed, she still didn't know what Gray and Jeremy had talked about, and she didn't know what everyone else heard except for angels and demons.

Catherine, Sarina, and Vivien were all at a loss.

Yes, except for the angels and demons present, but also the people of the Holy See, all heard it, clearly and without missing a word.

The lichs began to cheer.

"Well done, Well done, Well done, Well done, You tore off the masks of these hypocrites!"

"Actually, it's the first time I know that the justice of heaven is like this, hahahaha, what a surprise!"

"I love this twist!"

"That's right! This is the plot I want to see! Let true justice come!"

......

"What the hell is going on now? Did they hear the Legion Commander talking to Gray? What did the Legion Commander say?"

"Oh my God...... What's going on with these humans?"

"Is this all crazy?"

The Angel Legion is already in disarray.

The debris was thrown at the angelic legions, most of whom could not reach the altitude they flew, and yet the people continued to vent and curse as if they had gone mad.

......

Outside of Salted Fish Harbor, among the coalition forces, although the Holy See personnel knew nothing, the eyes of the soldiers looking at the Holy See personnel changed, and they were full of hostility. Anyone can see that.

Some of the soldiers had even turned their weapons around and pointed them at the Cardinals' Order. This kind of change, even the most stupid people, can realize the problem.

"What the hell is going on?" said Levi.

......

"Brother ......" Bob, who was standing beside Benedict II on horseback, gently took Labantik II's hand.

Reaching out and touching Bob's head, Benedict II took the lead, rode in the direction of Salted Fish Harbor, turned his horse's head at the edge of the town, drew his sword, and cried out: "The Holy Spirit has given up on us! No, it should be said that the Holy Spirit has never accepted us! From now on, we human beings must be self-reliant! Defend our own justice! Protect our own paladins!"

All of a sudden, the soldiers' eyes began to flicker.

Soon, the cardinals, who knew exactly what was happening, were in an uproar.

"How is this possible? The Holy Spirit's holy faith does not have us?"

"Everyone heard, why didn't we hear it?"

"It's a lie! It's a lie! It's all a devil's trick!"

"Then how do you explain the constant contradictions in the doctrine?"

Yes, even as a surrogate, they don't know. Just when the cardinals were in a panic, scattered soldiers, some of them had broken away from the formation and walked towards Benedict II, and by Benedict's side, they formed a-for-tat front with the human alliance. The armies of Isaac's kingdom were all turned against me. Immediately afterwards, the army of the Duchy of Burth. Large-scale defections began to occur one after another in the armies of the countries friendly with Gray.

"Phew! I always felt that something was wrong. Why is it that the Holy Spirit loves the world, but we live so hard!

"Impossible, how is it possible! How can the Holy Spirit deceive us? Somewhere must be wrong! Somewhere must be wrong!"

"So, Paladin Gray is the one who thinks about us, and the Holy Spirit only wants to use us?"

"Calm! It's the devil's trick! Calm! It's the devil's trick!"

"The Holy Spirit has never received us...... Are we excluded from the righteousness of the Holy Spirit?"

"Fuck the devil's tricks! Blame the devil for everything! Can you find some fresh excuse?"

"Is this why the Holy Spirit has boundless power, but is not as active as the Paladin......s in saving the world? I should have thought of it a long time ago. ”

"This can't be! This can't be! I didn't hear anything! I didn't hear anything!"

For 10,000 years, the faith of the Holy Spirit has taken root in this land, coexisting with suffering. There has never been less doubt, and now it is only confirmed through the mouth of the angel. And all the accumulated contradictions will erupt at this moment......

......

Just when the entire three views of human beings, including the soldiers of the coalition forces, were shattered, the values changed dramatically, and there was chaos, in the abyss, there was a celebration.

"Oh my God! Hahahaha, what a beautiful job! Now the sacred faith of the entire continent is finished! Heaven is ruined!"

"I can't believe it's an unexpected bonus. The greatest victory in hell in 10,000 years!"

"We should take advantage of the victory!"

"Actually, we've told humans about it before, but they never believed it. Thanks to this time the angels themselves spoke the words. ”

"I can't believe that angel told the truth...... Is he stupid?"

He thought only the Lich Knight could hear. But who did this? Lich Knight? He probably doesn't have the ability. Who's helping us? There must be another force there, and we have to be careful!"

......

In the midst of the Holy Light, there was already a lot of noise.

"It's insane. Say these words...... How is this going to end?"

"It's a matter of time, isn't it? You can't blame Jeremi, he didn't know there were so many people listening. ”

"Who is it? Who's behind it?"

"Who else could it be? We have always had only one opponent. ”

"Is the Lich Knight completely merging with Hell? it can't be, he's a saint. ”

"If our holiness does not cover Him, can not His holiness not cover us?"

"There's still a chance, and what we have to think about is how to end it. This is the most immediate problem we are facing now. If this news spreads, our faith on the mainland will be finished. Do you think it's the devil's doing?"

"Will anyone believe it?"

"At least we can't admit it directly. ”

"Is this really good? We're forcibly framing and wronging the Lich Knight. This goes against what we've always done. I don't support that. ”

"I don't support it either. ”

"I don't support it either, it's ridiculous. It's a shame that we're going to wronged a lich!"

"But we have no other way, it's better than a total collapse. In terms of rhetoric, we can process it a little. Moreover, he did collude with the devil, which did not wronged him. If it weren't for the devil's tricks, what could it be? This is a great crisis for us. If the situation is not under control, we will lose miserably in this 10,000-year-long war of faith. ”

"If it is claimed to be a lie of the devil, there is no room for maneuver in the matter of the Lich Knight. We must destroy the Lich Knights once and for all to prove our attitude on this matter. Is there anyone against it?"

"Nope. ”

"No objection. ”

"Uh...... I, I don't support it, but I don't oppose it either. It's terrible......"

"Do I need to vote?"

"There was already a decision. The agreement between us and the Lich Knight is still valid, and we only need to vote to overturn the decision, not to enforce it. Unless someone initiates a motion. Anyone want to initiate it?"

"Nope. ”

"Nope. ”

"Nope. ”

"Then enforce it!"

......

Salted Fish Harbor has been turned upside down, some people are cursing, some people are crying, some people have already picked up arms and sided with the Lich Paladin, some people are still resolutely self-hypnotizing to stand on the side of the Holy See and the angels, of course, many more people are still in a state of confusion, and there are all kinds of situations.

In the midst of the chaos, Jeremy closed his eyes tightly and nodded slightly.

Immediately afterward, he opened his eyes, drew the sword at his waist, and shouted in a voice that could be heard by all: "Shameful lich knight, you have colluded with the devil to deceive the followers of the Holy Religion in this way! As a messenger of the Holy Spirit, I will punish you in the name of justice!"

All of a sudden, the originally noisy salted fish port instantly quieted down. Everyone's eyes widened as they looked at Gray and Jeremi. The angels who were thrown into hiding by the people with debris finally got a chance to breathe.

The two guardian angels, Catherine and Delia, were still confused, completely unaware of what was going on. The same goes for the two inducing demons.

Zeda in the corner laughed slowly: "Oh my God, the angels have actually started to wronged us. But who did it? It's not easy to reach so many people at the same time. Is there anyone helping him?"

Zeda looked around, but couldn't find even a trace of anything suspicious.

At this moment, the lichs hiding on the rooftops in the distance, disguised themselves, were already filled with righteous indignation.

"It's so shameful! What are they trying to do? They want to wronged our protagonist?"

"Has the Holy Spirit officially become a villain?"

"In my countless experiences, all those who wronged the protagonist will not end well!

"To be honest, I can't help but want to go over and beat him!"

"There's a problem. Lucy whispered, "Gray can't beat them now." In other words, if they used force, Gray would have no power to fight back. They can forcibly reverse it. I think they're going to do that......"

All of a sudden, the already excited lichs fell silent, and they all froze.

The wind blows gently.

"Heh......" Holding the sword, Gray sneered, and said in the same voice that everyone could hear: "Do you want to deny that you said those words just now?"

Jeremy stubbornly pointed his sword at Gray and shouted, "Shut up, you are a lich, a symbol of darkness and death, I am an angel, a symbol of light and sacred!"

As he spoke, he turned his face sideways and shouted around, "Human, who do you think you should trust, should you believe in a lich about to be destroyed, or should you believe in angels? Who do you want to believe?"

Jeremy even accentuated the words "imminent destruction" when he said it.

The wind swept past him, raising his long hair. His forehead was already covered with beads of sweat.

Everyone stared blankly at Jeremi, and the whole world was silent.

However, the corners of Ebald's eyes twitched slightly.

The corners of Catherine's eyes twitched slightly.

Almost every angel had twitching corners of his eyes, not knowing what to say, let alone what to do.

This is Heaven's last dying throes, and it has even challenged the bottom line of Heaven's long-standing beliefs. "Lies" make every angel feel hesitant. Even if the faith in heaven does not include human beings, it is binding on themselves.

Gray watched Jeremy silently.

Raising his sword, Jeremy slowly pointed at Gray.

A familiar voice rang in Gray's head.

"Do you want power? Yes, it's me again. This was the voice of the Demon Lord, with a smile: "The current situation is far beyond my expectations. I thought you were out of use, so I abandoned you. Unexpectedly, you are more valuable than I imagined. The gap in faith in heaven has been torn open, and it is not in our interest that you fall here. So, I'm willing to lend you the strength again. This time, though, it comes at a price. I need you to embrace our faith. That is, the Fall. After all, you've seen the truth of your faith in heaven once and for all, don't you? If you want to protect the people who are here and support you, then you need to give up something. It's a reasonable deal. ”

"Has the Demon Lord become so petty? There has to be a price?" asked Gray softly.

"It's not that I'm stingy, in fact I'm more than happy to give you unconditional power, you're better than any of my magicians. Nothing has been wasted on your investment so far. But ......" replied the Demon Lord, "you see, Heaven is perfectly justified in crusading against you, based on your own agreement with the Holy Spirit. And once I step in and provide you with strength, then Jeremy will surely be blessed with the power of the Holy Spirit. Destroying you is the only way they can clean up the mess, and they will do whatever it takes. And if you don't agree with my beliefs, the power you can get will be very limited. My intervention is only to delay your defeat, and has no practical meaning. I hope you can understand that this condition is an objective need. ”

The wind was blowing gently.

Gray was silent.
