Chapter 112: The Possibility of Winning the War

There is always someone who can shake off pride and recognize the great significance of gambling. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Mage Perry broke the silence and bowed slightly to Archmage Rose: "You mean, as long as we master the method, we can release ten times more powerful power in three times as little time? ”

Asking a mage to pull down a face is more difficult than getting a pig up a tree, and Perry was a little hesitant when he said this.

Odin replied, "No problem - don't forget your bets, from this moment on, you must obey my orders, or you will lose your life." ”

He stepped forward and patted Gould on the shoulder, the mage who had placed the bet now only nodding desperately.

Despite their pride, mages have the advantage of never breaking their vows, otherwise it would be an insult to the true gods and magic, and breaking their oaths to destroy their sense of honor. So although they felt that the bet was ridiculous and they could not respect Odin, they were able to bend down in the face of reality and keep their promises.

"We are willing to do everything we can until the end of the war in the South. "The code of ethics of faith has finally triumphed, and Rudolph, the head of the mage, has made a promise.

Odin reminded everyone again, and he put away his smile, his ghostly gaze inexplicably terrifying: "We will measure every mage by the standard of a soldier who participates in the battle, and once you back down and break your oath, your lord has the right to cut off your head." ”

In front of the mage group, he showed three woodcut seals and asked them to remember the effect of using them.

"The Ember Cage has a very strong destructive effect on special elements, the Ember Cage can absorb - reflect elemental attacks, and the solar wind can make spell attacks get out of control. I've already taught Gould how to manipulate the form, and several of the mages who participated in the game have seen the whole process with their own eyes, so from now on, you must do your best to master the use of these woodcut seals. ”

Despite their reluctance and witnessing the torture of their casters, the mages, led by their leader Rudolph, began to attempt to manipulate the formal causes of their perceptions with a sense of nobility for keeping their vows, and with curiosity and awe for the new realm of magic.

The onlookers saw that there was no excitement to see, so they dispersed in twos and threes, and Rudolph left the outskirts of the city with his group of mages and began their meditations.

At this time, Carter Larson walked up to Odin and bowed to him in silence: "Dear Mr. Diggs, I am very sorry for my previous questioning of you. Whatever your purpose, to this day, you have given me peace and strength in the city of Paliwa, and you have pulled me back from the brink of death and embarked on the path of resistance, and I don't know how to express my gratitude. ”

Carter still had a straight face and a serious expression, but his gray-green eyes could tell the sincerity and piety: "I will fully obey your orders and do my best to free the people of Paliva from the calamity." ”

"My lord—according to your rules, I can call you that, you know, while my behavior so far seems to be noble by your standards, we just take what we need. Your morals have nothing to do with me, so you don't have to mind. ”

Odin was not infected by Carter's emotions at all, but put away his smile, and the expression on his face was no longer vivid.

"Now I need you to be more ambitious, keeping Paliva is only the first step, and eventually you must sit on the Golden Throne, and there must be no disobedience or questioning of my approach. If you make me lose the bet - I will not hesitate to plunge you back into purgatory. ”

"The Golden Throne? I never thought about it...... I just want to take back my father's honor, hold on to the territory that has been passed down for generations, and protect the people who follow me......" Carter-Larson was surprised.

"Do you think I'm going to put so much effort into a lord?" Odin looked at Carter coldly, "remember what I just said - obey me, or you'll be worse off than your father." ”

The young lord knew from the beginning that this warlock of unknown origin, with great ambitions, coveted not worldly power, but - power, the great power that lurked in the Sanctuary, and following him meant fighting against the whole Sanctuary, against the entire Sunset Empire, either victorious or more terrible than death.

But at this point, will he still have a choice? Even after witnessing so many miracles, Carter still believes that Paliva will be a terrible battle - will he really be able to win if he listens to this madman?

After a few months of turbulent life, the young lord was full of doubts about everything.

Odin interrupted his thoughts just in time: "Lord Lord—we don't have time to hesitate any longer, and while things seem to be going well now, we can't expect a hundred mages to defeat the eight thousand Imperial Army - they can at best be equal to the power of the Sanctuary. ”

"As I said, every people should have the power to be free - that is the root of victory. The Grey-robed Warlock then uttered something that made Carter Larson unbelievable.

In the Sunset Empire, each city-state has a distinct hierarchy, not just in terms of power, but also in terms of power - at the top are the Templars and Inquisitions, followed by the lords of the city-states with territorial knights and their vassals, the freedmen are protected by the lord class, and at the bottom are the slaves and outcasts - the last two classes have no ability to defend themselves.

The former slaves, wanderers, and heretics of the city of Paliwa are now free people blessed by their lords, but they have never been formally trained, let alone joined the army—some of the sick and weak people cannot even hold a sword, and if they were allowed to ride on horseback, they would be trampled by the hooves of their horses before they could face the enemy.

So when Odin said that everyone should be empowered, Carter still couldn't believe it, but what followed shocked him even more.

"In less than half a month, we will let all the freedmen who participated in the war learn the basic spells - at least they can release the Holy Fire Charm and the Forbidden Spell. Odin said in a very firm tone.

Even now, the young lord still thinks that Odin is whimsical - let all the low-level people who have not even wielded a sword and speak the imperial Chinese language are not standard master spells? Maybe this is only a dream to achieve!

But the Warlock has performed too many miracles that no one dared to imagine before - saving himself from mortal danger, banishing the Templar from Paliva, involving the renegade and the two archmages in the war, encircling the Lord of the Deep Valley and summoning a large army of mages, repairing and using the three major circles of Paliva, and mass-producing miniature magic seals......

Each of these is something that is completely unattainable in the eyes of a person in their right mind.

Now he says that it seems that it can be achieved to let the hungry master the spells and participate in the war. This means that they will have at least a thousand spellcasters that rival those of the Templars or Monks. Well, winning the war is not completely impossible.

True God Blessing - If there is a god, everything the warlock says is true.
