Chapter 148: Collapse

In his past life experiences, Shuge has seen some people who slipped on their knees on the spot for various reasons.

However, like the officer named Bayliss in front of him, it was the first one who knelt so decisively, quickly, and thoroughly.

And......

The object of the other party's kneeling is still himself.

This is not the same as the "slippery kneeling" of fear, flattery, flattery, or begging for forgiveness, in this guy, Shuge feels only a strong reverence.

At this moment, Shuge only felt as if he had become a god in a temple, and the one who knelt down in front of him was a believer who had witnessed the miracle of the idol.

This situation was strange, but it also opened a gap in Shuge's conversation.

Shug was silent for two seconds, then asked, "Raise your head, Baylis...... To answer my question, which god do you believe in?"

"I answer, I answer!"

Bayliss shouted, but he always maintained a prostrate posture and did not raise his head as Shug commanded.

So Hug looked at him seriously, and then he noticed that this guy's body was trembling uncontrollably, and his face was full of a smile twisted by ecstasy, and at this moment, it was obvious that Baylis's body had both extreme emotions of ecstasy and fear, and this made him unable to control his body at all.

In the next second, Shug heard his name in his hoarse, distorted voice.

"I follow Mother Earth, I am the son of the Moon Eagle and a believer in the Colossus Hills...... Praise the Burning Fire and the Lord of Scales......

Because of the severe mood swings, Baylis's words were extremely distorted: "But here I am, but here I see you!" That's why fate favors me...... I would like to follow the guidance of fate forever...... The Messenger of all faces is above, the Messenger is above!"

"What the?"

Xiuge's face didn't change, but he couldn't help but curse in his heart.

There are a lot of unfamiliar terms that this guy reported in one breath, such as "Moon Eagle", "Colossal Hill", and "Burning Fire and King of Ten Thousand Scales", these terms have never even been heard of by Xiuge, a person who can communicate with the dream shelter, and as soon as Bayliss called, the only things Xiuge could understand were "Mother Earth" and the "Messenger of Ten Thousand Faces" that he mentioned at the end.

The former naturally refers to the Mother Earth goddess who was once worshipped and believed in by countless terrestrial races.

And the latter......

Xiuge narrowed his eyes, his thoughts spun like flying, and then a sentence came out of Xiuge's mouth: "Amazing...... Believing in many gods at the same time, is what you are doing right for your beliefs?"

Under Xiuge's deliberate adjustment, his tone became extremely cold, and there was hardly half of the emotion in his ears, and with the operation of the magic in his body, an invisible pressure also silently pressed on Baylis's body, which made the fear in his body completely attack.

Shuge could even hear his teeth chattering.

"If you increase your strength, I'm afraid he won't be able to control it."

A family soul who had served as a law enforcement officer in the Wattel Kingdom obviously had a lot of experience in this area, and he carefully reminded, "I think it's almost the same, and if it's a little more restrained, it will be ugly if it goes on like this...... It smells terrible, too."

"Thanks for reminding me, but after all, he's a member of the Black Sun Society, so I think he could be a little stronger, lest he don't tell the truth."

Shuge raised his hand as he mentally responded.

A cold Calon touch slowly reached into the cage, and it spun nimbly, and then the sharp arthrop at the end of the tentacle pressed precisely against Baylis's neck.

The officer, who had joined the Black Sun Society at some point and was ready to sacrifice everything for the sake of the true gods, was finally forced to raise his head, instinctively trying to look away from making eye contact with Shug, but the twisting touch of Calon gave him no room to dodge.

So he saw a pair

Chaotic eyes that shimmer with black shadows.

Bayliss could feel the special aura contained in those black shadows and fog - it was unlike any kind of magic, but it was quite similar to the ritual performed in the Society, and the pressure exerted from the thick fog-like pupils finally broke through his limits.

"Baylis, you should have seen it...... I'm with the royal family of Waterle."

Bellis trembled as he replied, "Yes, you are with them." z.br>

There was a strange smell in the air, so Xiuge immediately blocked his sense of smell with his magic power, and said with an unchanged face, "My situation is dangerous, so I need your help, understand?"

"Yes, yes...... I understand."

"Then tell me everything you know, instead of waiting for those fools who believe in "false gods" to continue tormenting you, and when you are crazy or dead, you will not be able to help me."

In the interrogation room, Xiuge's voice became as ethereal and cold as an echo in an ice cave under the influence of magic, and he constantly exerted a terrible sense of oppression on him while consciously or unconsciously showing the prisoners in the cage those "miracles" from ancient times.

From Baylis's mouth, for the first time, Shug received definite information about the Black and Japanese Society.

Because of his family composition, Baylis was a quarter of Saint-Steele's northern ancestry, so he was not the same as the average Wattle commoner in terms of faith.

As a soldier of Waterl, he believed in the Giant Eagle of the Highlands, the goddess Mel, who brought magical miracles, but he also believed in the god of life, a tradition of the people of St. Steele.

And his adjutant has a similar background to him.

There were so few people in Waterl's barracks who could speak a common language of faith, and their reverence for the god of life gave them a solid foundation of friendship, and after the two battles against the Ogres of the Highlands, they were promoted and joined the city defense forces in Boldon with the order.

According to Baylis's vague description, Hug learned that his days after his return to Boldon had been very quiet and boring, until the lieutenant, who was also of St. Steele's ancestry, invited him to attend a "funny" ***.

The rest of the process was lackluster.

This set of processes that are infinitely close to pyramid schemes is so strong that Xiuge's evaluation of the Black Sun Association has begun to plummet.

In order to make himself look less like he was deliberately interrogating, Hug did not ask too much about the process of Baylis's joining the Black Sun Society, but focused on learning about the Black Sun Society's recent plans and actions.

In this regard, the Black Sun Society has once again demonstrated its amazing ability to infiltrate, plan and execute.

Clearly, Bayliss was not the only one who had been infiltrated and eroded by Bolden.

Acquisition and transmission of confidential information, selection of targets for shelling, transportation and deployment of old crystallized guns and shells......

All indications show that all this was completed by the Black Sun Association in just one and a half days, and the execution of the process reveals a strange and rigorous "beauty".

In Baylis's description, all he did was get orders and carry them out.

As for the tasks of information transmission and weapon preparation, which were extremely important in this process, they were obviously done by other people, and as for who these people were, Bayliss did not know.

If the topic were to go on at this point, the interlocutor would more or less realize that he was actually an insignificant outcast, and would have some emotional fluctuations as a result, but Bayliss did not behave in a similar way, and when he told Shuge about these things, the whole person seemed extremely excited, not so much "explaining" as "showing credit" for himself.

"I did it! I've done it all!"

Bayliss repeatedly emphasized that at this time, he had completely forgotten his current situation and embarrassment, and vigorously recounted his "contributions" to Xiuge, and it was at this time that he recounted his "contributions".

"So, you have seen a prophecy about me?"

"Yes, we've seen you, we've seen you...... It is a dream of great prophecy, a blessing from the Messenger of all faces, which gives us a glimpse into the fragments and the reality of the future."

Hearing these words, Xiuge was slightly startled, and he quickly memorized these contents while maintaining the release of pressure: "Oh? So what do you see?"

"I have seen your coming, your rebirth, your conquest, and ...... And the final coronation."

Bayliss recalls the fragments he had glimpsed in that "ritual dream", his expression constantly changing, his gaze wandering, as if he had touched the ultimate truth: "We have all seen it, you will be the guide who leads us to the truth, you will be the only truth in this world of nothingness, you will be God!"

These words silenced Xiuge.

He knew that Bayliss was an unimportant outcast of the Black Sun Society, and it was difficult for him to really get in touch with the secrets of the Black Sun Society, but in order to ensure the loyalty and availability of the members, the Black Sun Society would definitely show them some "miracles" on a continuous basis.

The "prophetic dream" in Baylis's mouth is obviously one of the forms of "miracle".

"Dream of Prophecy...... It sounds like that's how the Black Sun Society got those prophecies."

"So in fact, they've been 'peeping' into the future in some way, using it as a reference for their own actions or trying to push it forward?"

By this time, Bayliss had already confessed almost all the information he knew, and he looked at Hug with a blank eye: "Can you ...... Can you give me salvation? Or give me more real revelation?"

"You ask me?"

Shuge's tone changed.

At this moment, he put away the touch of Calon, unleashed the suppression of his magic power for Baylis, and at the same time dissipated the deep fog in his pupils: "Okay, I'll give you some 'true revelations'."

Shuge stood up from his squatting position, patted the corner of his shirt lightly, and said in a tone different from before, "The truth is that you gave everything for a bunch of meaningless prophecies and a so-called association made of human garbage and cancer, and you got nothing."

In the midst of Baylis's rapidly changing gaze and expression, Shug said softly, "Be proud, Baylis, everything you have done will make this war break out once and for all, and your life, family, and loved ones will be the most insignificant price in the process, but unfortunately, you will never be able to see the Black Sun descend, and the gods you believe in...... Oh, they won't know about you at all, and they won't care about your giving."

He looked at Bayliss silently, as if he were examining a useless mass of waste, "I'm afraid the Black Sun Society didn't tell you, did it? The gods you believe in have failed once a long, long time ago, and that's why humans are the masters of Van Grace today."

As he spoke, a mage's hand flew over, clutching a piece of paper full of words between its fingers.

Hug reached out and took the paper, and shook it lightly twice in front of Baylis: "You see, the prophecy has deceived you, and I, the so-called "miracle" in the midst of the prophecy, am not on the side of your gods to thank you for your confession."

With that, Hug took the well-detailed, redacted confession and walked towards the door of the interrogation room.

In the midst of Baylis's desperate and miserable roar, Xiug pushed the door open, and the terrifying sound immediately vented through the crack in the door, startling Princess Sophia, who was already a little drowsy standing outside the door, but then, the paper handed by Xiuge completely refreshed her.

Princess Sophia hurriedly read through the light, and then she was surprised, "Huh? How do you do that?"

Xiuge asked expressionlessly, "Didn't Your Highness even let the butler use magic to spy on the situation inside?"

Finn shook his head, "Mr. Xiug, even if it's a deep sea level mage

, there is no way to let his magic power penetrate the walls and doors made of this kind of strangulation silver...... If I can do that, then there will be no need for other soldiers or any new ordnance for the rest of the war, and I alone will be enough to bring Merlinle and the land of Wattle into the land."

Hearing Finn's unfathomable words, Xiuge could only laugh a little, and he shrugged: "Of course, it is to know the reason, and move the emotion...... In short, I didn't use any drastic methods, he was just scared like this."

Sophia's sense of smell is very sensitive, she smells something uncomfortable, so she reaches out to cover her nose: "Scared?"

"Yes, even the members of the Black Sun Society will collapse when their faith dies."
