Volume I, Chapter 81: Truth and Falsehood
On the third day after Mick brought Ramisley back to Norristown, the heretic appeared, but she was more powerful than anyone expected, and the sneak attack turned into a massacre, and Mick and the others were killed without even seeing the heretic's appearance.
In the picture, in the most critical moment, in order to repay the favor, Ramisley infuses his divine power into Mick's body, activates his already collapsed bloodline, and stops the heresy at the cost of his life, buying Mick precious time to escape.
Mick was so frightened that he ran away like a lost dog until he reached the Snow Blue Castle.
In the process, Mick was surprised to find that his long-collapsed bloodline began to gradually recover, so he returned to the path of magical alchemy.
After inadvertently defeating Master Pecki, Mick won the favor of Master Thomas, studied magic alchemy with him for a month, and then thought that Snow Blue Castle was still too close to Norristown, so he simply ran all the way to Maltis.
Mick thought to himself that as long as he ran to the center of the church, the closest place to the gods of the heavenly realm, he would definitely not be in danger of his life again.
After reading this memory of Mick, Kranas and Deriano were dumbfounded.
After a while, Deriano suddenly said: "I see, so that the reason why Mr. Beckman regained his talent after the collapse of his bloodline can be explained, and why he gave up his territory and ran all the way to Maltiz has also been explained." ”
"No!" Cranas suddenly roared angrily and shouted, "He's lying, if the Blasphemy Reaper Squad was wiped out before he met Mick, and the badly wounded Ramisli had no power to stop that heretic, how could he kill everyone and let him run alone?"
Also, can a person whose bloodline has collapsed be able to recover just because of the infusion of divine power? If the mystery of the bloodline was really that simple, the church would have swept across the entire continent long ago!"
In fact, Kranas did not doubt the authenticity of this memory at the beginning, but as he said, there are many aspects of this memory that seem reasonable, but when you think about it, you will feel incredible, and many details are vague and ambiguous.
As a witness to the pursuit of the North One, Kranas had a lot of details, especially after he was ordered to pursue the Sparrows, he went all the way south, and the route he walked was exactly the same as Mick's escape route, which aroused his high suspicions.
However, most of the people who have these details are no longer in this world, and what he says is hardly convincing, especially when he is "blinded by hatred".
After hearing Kranyas's suspicions, Deriano's face sank, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said unhappily: "Lord Kranas, please pay attention to your words and deeds, what we see is not Mr. Beckman's confession, but his memory buried deep in his consciousness.
Do you think he already has the ability to weave memories, or are you simply questioning the observer's abilities?"
"No, I didn't question the observer, just based on rational analysis. The doubts I raised had to be answered, otherwise I couldn't believe he was innocent. Cranas gritted his teeth.
Deriano shook his head and said, "Lord Kranas, as you said, he is only a second-level magician, and it is impossible to weave memories, and he does it unknowingly in front of the observer.
Plus, bloodlines are a wonderful thing. It is indeed strange that Lord Ramisley's divine power has reactivated Mick's bloodline, but it is not entirely impossible, at least in more than one such case.
As for whether Ramisli can stop that heresy, I think you underestimated the power of faith, and Ramisli could have been overpowered in a desperate situation.
While this wasn't enough to save Mick's life, a powerful heretic hunted by the Templar wouldn't necessarily take the time to hunt down a native nobleman who didn't know anything.
So, I don't think your suspicions are convincing. ”
"Your Excellency...... How can you jump to such a conclusion?" Kranas turned blue with anger, but he maintained the necessary respect in the face of the oldest cardinal.
Deriano shook his head: "My decision is not hasty, the memories seen by the observer are only a basis, and the final conclusion will be reported directly to His Majesty the Pope after talking to Cardinal Versailles."
You know, Lord Versailles is very good at linguistics, and usually a conversation can bring heretics to life. ”
With that, Deriano had no interest in staying any longer, he stood up, gave a faint glance at the angry Cranas, turned and walked out the door.
The moment he walked out of the door, he suddenly said to Kranyas: "Kranas, you should remember your identity, as a night watchman gazing at the night sky, it is beyond your authority to participate in today's operation. ”
The cold accusation was like a knife, cutting deep into Kranyas's heart, and the conscientious Kranas suddenly felt a sourness, and the unspeakable grievances swallowed him up like a flood that opened the floodgates.
For the sake of the church and for the sake of the dead robe, I have gone through a lot of hardships, and I have been on the verge of life and death several times, but I have received a cold accusation, is it really worth it?
Kranas asked himself aloud in his heart, but the thought of the robe that slept in the north turned all his grievances into anger.
"Damn, I'm going to tear off all your disguises and get you the most brutal punishment, and I'm going to make you regret coming to this world!" suddenly a loud roar rang out from the temple, and everyone who heard it shuddered.
And in the Temple of Creation, Cardinal Versailles, who had high hopes from Deriano, was chatting with Mick in a lively conversation. Mick has come up with a new design for the inscription of the Magic Pattern, called Angel Wings.
In his narrative, Angel Wings are composed of seven individual inscriptions, which greatly increase the combat abilities of the Holy Knights, and allow the knights of pure martial arts to obtain exclusive skills that only priests can have.
In this way, the combat power of the third-level Holy Knight actually caught up with the fourth-level blasphemous reaper. It is important to know that the Holy Knights are only the lowest-level combat units in the Church, and they are not at the same level as the elite Blasphemous Reapers.
As long as the angel wings are equipped with a knight order, the church will have a very considerable amount of combat power out of thin air. The price of all this is just some money, and money is nothing to a church with a millennium of history.
And for Versailles, this is an unimaginable achievement, and if his new combat power can shine on the battlefield against the infidels, he will no longer be far from the position of cardinal.
What's more, Mick is like a chicken that lays golden eggs, and as long as you hold on to him, Versailles will have a steady stream of credit.
And Mick is a very good kid, and he only hinted at it slightly, and the guy put all the credit on himself, and made Versailles thank the gods for the gift several times.
When he looked at Mick again, it was as if both eyes were spewing hot flames.
