Arcane Lord

Shado looked at Cole, and he could clearly see that a thin layer of sweat was forming on his forehead at a speed that was almost visible to the naked eye.

The arrogance and self-confidence that were originally faintly revealed have now turned into panic and hesitation. Xia Duo can feel the inner struggle of the other party, but he has no sympathy at all.

No matter what the other party's true purpose is, it is always mixed with shadows. Should he still sympathize with a potential enemy?

Just when the other person's face gradually returned to calm, Sha Duo glanced at Leiden and motioned for him to speak. He had been instructed to immediately summon a ball of sacred light, shrouding the left and right, and shouted:

"Holy words and holy deeds, don't lose my heart! Cole, on behalf of Lord Xia Duo, I want to ask you, do you have evil thoughts towards the Great Xia leader?"

"I didn't!" Cole answered quickly, almost subconsciously.

But even faster was the feedback from the Holy Power. The moment he said "I don't have it," a large amount of holy light surged out of Cole's body and dissipated around him, rendering the interrogation scene quite sacred.

The Holy Power comes from the gift of radiance, and is the result of one's own personal practice of the doctrine, but it is also the result of "faith". Once faith is shaken, the Holy Power will respond immediately.

"He lied!" Layton whispered.

As a priest, lying under the witness of Glorious Will will cause the Holy Power to dissipate, not to mention that there may be violations of doctrine behind this answer. Leiden glanced at Shado and asked if he should continue.

Of course Xia Duo wants to continue. Since the other party is determined to be an enemy, has obviously violated the teachings, and has come to his door, there is no reason not to continue!

So, Layton continued to ask: "Cole, do you know where the doctrine is, but you turn a blind eye?"

"I, I -" Cole's face changed drastically, and he finally realized that something was wrong, but at this moment, he was in the divine light, and he couldn't help but not answer. Cole had a lot of thoughts in his mind, and finally gritted his teeth and said An answer came out from between his teeth, "Yes!"

As soon as he said these words, he immediately fled the area covered by the holy light, leaving a trail of dissipated holy power behind him.

As soon as he ran out of the area covered by the sacred radiance, Cole knelt down on the ground with a plop and kept reciting the "Sacred Proverbs of the Lord of Glory", completely ignoring that Shado and Leiden were still beside him.

"What's wrong with him?" Xia Duo asked curiously.

"He's redeeming himself."

Seeing this scene, Leiden felt a little uncomfortable. Seeing a priest who was also the Lord of Glory fall in front of his eyes, he didn't expect that the [Realm of Honesty] could have such an effect.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at Lord Shado. The lord had just instructed him to torture Cole about his faith. Could it be that the lord had expected it a long time ago.

Of course, Shado couldn't predict anything in advance, but he just wanted to do an experiment. After all, the clergy was a completely different system to him. Some experiments were difficult to try on Leiden, but the enemy didn't matter.

And this time, he probably thought of some key points. If it were not in Daxia Territory, it might not have such good results. After all, the teachings of the Lord of Glory said that one must obey the ruler, which also included him, the local lord.

Of course, the day before yesterday, all of this was because Cole himself had indeed violated the teachings, and he also knew that he had misinterpreted it. If he had misinterpreted it without knowing it, Shado was not sure whether it would still work.

However, if you really misinterpret the teachings, you may still be able to obtain holy power, but you will ultimately not be able to reach the level of divine vigilance. In other words, you will be stuck after reaching a certain level.

From another perspective, Sha Duo also discovered that this so-called doctrine actually has a wide range of error. What clerics should really adhere to is the holy power, not the doctrine.

After all, doctrines are written and determined by people, and holy power is the most direct link between clergy and God.

In just a moment, Xia Duo gained insight into some secrets about the Holy Power and the clergy. However, if he could discover it, maybe it was not a secret at all, which inevitably reminded him of conspiracy theories.

But even if there is a conspiracy, it is too far away from him. At the moment, how to deal with this Cole is still a bit troublesome!

Self-salvation?

Is it a trick played by a magician to deceive himself and others? Or is it really true?

Just looking at Cole who was constantly reciting sacred mottos, Shado also discovered that the sacred radiance emanating from him no longer dissipated directly, but there were faint signs of re-condensation.

Xia Duo couldn't make up his mind for a while. It should be said that a single slash would be the most direct, but this slash would completely tear the company apart. Now he didn't even figure out the origin of the Rodney collar behind Cole. Naturally, It can't be so reckless.

In addition, Xia Duo has another concern. Up to now, everything he has done has been reasonable, but killing a priest may be marked down by the one in heaven. He has no plans yet.

After instructing Leiden to bring a group of soldiers to check on Cole, who was still trying to redeem himself, Shado returned to the small camp and contacted Ai Burke. It was better to consult an experienced elder for advice on such matters.

However, the next moment, Aibo was teleported directly, "Where is the Cole you mentioned?"

"Just outside, by the altar."

Xia Duo opened the door curtain and walked out of the small tent first. Aibo also walked out. In front of the small tent was the altar square. A priest-like man was kneeling on the ground, surrounded by Leiden and a team of people who were mobilized today. Hugh's soldiers.

"The territory is well built!" Aibo looked around, praised, and then came to the altar.

At this time, Cole still didn't get up, but the sacred light that originally spread around him had completely subsided, and Shado heard that he had read the last part of the proverb.

"My Lord, may your order be on earth as it is in heaven. May all glory and holiness be yours!"

Aberke also watched quietly as Cole finished reading the last sentence without any urging. Who can not be in awe of the Lord of Glory!

Soon, Cole stood up from the ground, completely ignoring the soldiers who were pointing their spears at him. He focused on Sha Duo, his eyes calm.

It’s different!

The moment Cole stood up, Sha Duo realized that the other person was different from before, with a calm demeanor, without a trace of arrogance, self-importance, nor any panic or hesitation.

It's like a different person!

Is this self-salvation?

This is too exaggerated!

Sha Duo was greatly shocked. Maybe Cole was acting the whole time and he hadn't considered it at all. At the cost of holy power and faith, he allowed the Lord of Glory to act as his companion?

This is absolutely impossible!

Then this self-salvation is really terrifying!

For a moment, Sha Duo didn't even think of what to say, but Cole had already spoken, "Lord Sha Duo, I apologize to you for my previous mistakes. Lord Rodney has intentions towards the Green Bead Forest, please forgive me!"

After saying that, he kept silent and looked straight at Xia Duo without any emotion.
