Chapter 161: Subverting the Truth

Elio stopped rushing towards the Warlock, he stood in place, seemed to hesitate for a moment, and suddenly sneered: "It's just a rat hiding in the dungeon and eavesdropping on some secrets, a warlock who knows a little about spells and wants to establish a heretical force, I'm afraid you will say that you are the king of the Sunset Empire next."

Odin looked at him and replied politely, "My lord, if you want to think so, there's nothing wrong with that. I just like to make everything clear so that you can be calm in the face of death and not think that you have fallen for the tricks of a third-rate warlock. ”

The former Prime Minister raised the eagle vulture, but did not move forward, he squinted at Odin with green eyes, trying to show disdain for his words, but his steps betrayed his timidity.

"Look, fool, kill this traitor!" Eleo shouted at the Silver Eagle Guards beside him, waving his eagle vulture.

Five armored soldiers broke out of the encirclement and approached Odin step by step.

Odin didn't respondβ€”no spellcasting, no chanting, no dreaded summons, just a smile as he stood in the center of the hundreds, watching the reflection of the silver blade approach him.

The soldiers' footsteps grew faster and faster, and they soon came to Odin, and the long sword was raised above the warlock's head, and the body of the sword trembled not far from Odin's forehead, but the warlock did not move!

"Stop! Retreat!" shouted the mage Leon.

However, this warning was too late, and the five armored soldiers were instantly ignited, and dark red flames flew from under their feet, like a cloud of blood-colored paint, engulfing several people.

The whole process was silent, and the only thing to see was that the soldiers' bodies turned into tiny black smoke in the dark red flames, and their faces were twisted like flat flats, and the soldiers opened their mouths wide as if they wanted to scream, but no one heard them, not even the sound of grease and bones burning!

Before the people around him could even react, the wall of fire around Odin had disappeared, and along with them, there were five soldiers who had been ordered by the Prime Minister to assassinate him, the ground was clean, not to mention the wreckage, not even a little ash, it seemed that these five people had never been close to the gray-robed warlock!

Even the casters didn't figure out what was going on, they couldn't feel the trembling of the spell web!

The warlock's figure emerged from the retreating flames, still spotless, with a faint smile.

Hundreds of people fell silent at the same time, they had never seen such a strange scene, and they didn't know for a moment whether they should rush forward and capture the warlock, or retreat cautiously.

The Imperial soldiers were shocked by the sight before them, and they nervously clenched the hilts of their swords, ready to obey the commander's orders at any time.

"Even if you tell obvious lies, we still want to hear your nonsense - what is the purpose of planning the massacre?"

Elio's eyes widened, his hooked nose making him even meaner, he hadn't recovered from the shock that had taken him from what he had seen and heard, and he wondered if he was dreaming.

Even though he intellectually didn't believe the truth of the Grey-robed Warlock's claim, Elio couldn't stop speculating on the terrible claim, so he forced his composure and inquired about the Warlock's intentions.

"Isn't it easy? to throw the empire into chaos and let the army march south. Odin's expression did not change, and he stood motionless in the circle of hundreds of people, and the sunlight seemed to coat him with a layer of cold light, which made people shudder.

Elio gritted his teeth: "Ridiculous, the Empire will not spare any traitors. Even if there hadn't been that massacre, the Imperial Army would have trampled the city of Paliva to the ground!"

"Oh, yes? You've been talking so long that I can't wait. Odin sneered, turned sideways, and ignored the annoyed Prime Minister.

He turned to the mage Leon, who was standing not far from him, and said, "Perhaps I should also make it clear to you so that you can better understand your situation. ”

"Two months ago, it was I who put a group of nightmares, whom you colloquially call the devil, into the city of Paliva and expelled Holy Priest John Fisher. That's when I decided to put down roots in the city, so I needed to clear some hurdles first. ”

This time it was the acolytes' turn to be shocked - the Eternal Order had ruled that Holy Priest John had been guilty of dereliction of duty and had abandoned the Paliva Sanctuary for his own benefit, but this unknown warlock had told the opposite truth!

At the same time, after the loss of Paliva City, the Sanctuary has sent several teams to search the southern towns, and a large number of heretics have been captured for this purpose, but no trace of the unknown warlock has been found!

No one expected that he would sneak into the imperial capital without anyone noticing, and stir up the imperial political situation into a black water!

Who was he? Was he planning everything, or was there a large, unknown force behind him?

Even if he was lying, as in the previous words, it covered most of the facts, and it was not information that could be obtained by a civilian of the Empire.

Mage Leon raised his staff to Odin: "Blasphemous, you better watch your words. ”

"Your colleagues who were bound to the cross of the Sanctuary are not lying, it's just that you don't believe the fact that the Sanctuary has been entrenched in the Sunset Empire for many years, and now this rule is cracked from the bottom. You are proud to think that it is impossible for the devil to invade the empire, and that the so-called traitors are nothing more than a bunch of bandits and robbers. ”

He even knew the decisions of the Eternal Order! No mortal could ever know the secrets of the Holy Mountain! Hearing this, Leon was convinced that the Warlock was not talking about it.

"You are high above, but you never set your eyes on the common people. You will only drain their blood and sustain your otherworldly life and draw strength. ”

"You are the root of the evils of the empire, the creators of all unfreedom and inequality. You have no regard for life, you abuse your power with impunity, you deprive your people of their wealth, you are a cancer of the empire. ”

Odin didn't care that his words would anger the Sanctuary Army, he just spoke in a clear and deep tone, word by word, each word like a fire oil bomb that fell on the enemy who surrounded him closely.

"The true God blesses every believer, and converted mortals will have to pay a price to enter the kingdom of heaven. For the unbeliever, the true God will send down the punishment and trap him in eternal hell. Leon tried his best to restrain his complex emotions and maintain the majesty of the Sanctuary Mage.

Odin's words, real or fake, made his blood burn, but reason told him that the Grey Warlock was not going to stand here and die.

"You don't have to tell us these so-called 'facts', and we won't believe a word. What's in it for you with those words?"

Leon, like any acolyte, is always able to restrain his emotions. What the Grey Man said did no good other than put Paliva and the Apostate in a worse situation, and no sober-minded planner would tell his enemies about his plots.

At this point, he noticed that the warlock had an intriguing smile. (To be continued.) )
