"My lord?"
Noldo Guard from outside finally arrived, but it was dark in the barracks and there was no sound. The Noldor did not dare to fire arrows.
Risadiran heard the shouts of Li Ang. He took several Noldor with swords and shields and planned to rush into the barracks, but the door was blocked from inside.
The guards didn't know what was going on inside. Although they could all determine the location of Li Ang, they didn't dare to act rashly. Risadiran waved his hand and let the Noldor temporarily surround the place.
"Lord Li Ang... You are no match for me. Let the people outside step aside and make way. I don't intend to hurt you, but don't hinder me either!"
The voice of Elano came from the dark barracks.
"I am indeed no match for you, but if you attack me again, you will definitely be dead. So, let's talk... lest we accidentally end up dying together."
Li Ang took out a fire breakout from his body - this was a fire breakout improved along with the grenade. It was made of match rope and cotton and linen mixed with some gunpowder. It ignited as soon as it was blown. It was quite easy to use.
"Okay... I just wanted to force you to leave here... you first ask the people outside to stay away."
Elano--Or the prophetess also knew very well that this was Li Ang's military camp. It would have been fine if she had succeeded in the sneak attack just now, but now that Li Ang's guards have come over, killing Li Ang would indeed be the same as dying together.
Although the prophet is powerful, it is impossible for one to fight against a thousand.
"Risadiran, retreat fifty steps away."
Li Ang gave the order loudly, which indeed made his subordinates retreat.
However, there is actually no difference to the Noldor between being fifty steps away and five steps away - they are all within the range of their bows and arrows anyway, and a little further away will be more powerful...
But seeing Li Ang's cooperation, the prophetess obviously felt a little more secure, and her voice became more relaxed. "Lord Li Ang, I really don't want to be your enemy... I also have questions to ask you."
Li Ang blew the fire stick, and the flame illuminated the barracks.
The temperament of 'Elano' opposite has completely changed - the youthful vitality of a twenty-year-old girl can't be seen in the eyes full of vicissitudes of life, and the indifferent expression looks very familiar.
This should be the prophet who once defeated Li Ang, the one who was surrounded and beaten by 'New Year's Sword Style'. Li Ang could tell.
It's amazing that although her image has changed, she can still be identified through her temperament and tone of voice. It must be her.
After recognizing this prophet, Li Ang was relieved - this might be the most powerful one among Three Prophets, but since he had defeated her before, he could naturally deal with her now.
This should be the prophet who calls himself 'Cersi', the prophetess who came to investigate the situation around Vulpine Town.
"What do I call you?"
Li Ang slowly squatted down, picked up the oil lamp that had fallen by the wall, lit it, and asked the prophetess calmly.
"Media. Where are my sisters? Anna and Cersi..."
The prophetess' attitude was also very calm. She even sat down on the chair Li Ang.
After losing the desk, the chair stood alone in the middle of the room.
Li Ang took the oil lamp and moved a step to the side, pulled the scattered table by the wall over, and sat on the half edge of the table. "Are they really called Anna and Cersi?"
"Of course. I know you controlled Lion City... I also know they are not dead, but I want to know where you trapped them?"
Media was still holding Heretic Codex tightly in his hands, and his words seemed very firm.
And Li Ang is a little surprised - if the other two prophets really call these two names, then...
No wonder Anna and Cersi could not be found!
That fat cook named Cersi is probably Cersi!
As for Anna, I'm afraid he really jumped off the building - Anna deliberately caused Li Ang or others to look down from the window!
She just used this method to deceive everyone, making Li Ang think that the person who jumped off the building was just Blood Oath Witch, and thus thought that she had already changed her body and left!
In fact, that Anna must still be in the body of that Blood Oath Witch!
Then, the body of Blood Oath Witch was thrown in the morgue of Noble Council for a few days. No abnormalities were found on the body, and it was transported out of the city and burned by the Noldos.
And in the middle, except for Noldo Guard and Li Ang himself, no one came in or out of Noble Council.
The Noldos should not have any problems. This is why Li Ang has been blocking Noble Council with Noldo Elves, but Media is still sure that Anna is not dead...
Wait... King Ulrich's body was also placed in the same morgue - it can't be left out in the sun, it will rot...
That's it!
Forster had previously asked Wendy to send news that Three Prophets might be hiding in Noble Council's body. However, due to the existence of Magic Suppression Tower, forcibly casting a spell would inevitably lead to backlash, so Forster believed that Anna was where the body was.
For the sake of safety, Li Ang burned all the corpses, including those mutilated corpses made by Cersi, and the matter was over.
But King Ulrich's body will not be burned - the king must leave a whole body for burial...
As for Cersi... she probably also forcibly cast a spell to change her body, and she specifically changed her body to the fat cook Cersi--this cook is indeed named Cersi.
In other words, Three Prophets conspired with Brennus for those bad things in the Imperial Palace ten years ago!
Cersi must have told the truth from beginning to end, and he did cooperate like an ordinary person in the throne room...
This allowed her to successfully hide it from the truth, but she must have also lost her magic power, and she is currently in Lion Lake City prison and under supervision.
Will Amy be in any danger?
I hope Cersi's mana has not been restored...
I hope Anna is still in Ulrich's grave!
Li Ang felt a little nervous.
However, this Media seems to think that Li Ang has captured the other two prophets...
"You want to rescue Anna and Cersi, right... Anna is in Ulrich's grave; Cersi is in prison. She looks like a fat cook now."
Li Ang didn't lie. Anyway, Media can't leave here now and can't save her sisters.
Probably this answer was in line with Media's expectations. She breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "Very good... Just ask whatever you want to know."
"So, tell me first, how is Elano? How do you control her?"
Li Ang first asked about the body Media was using at the moment - Elano was not Blood Oath Witch or Misfortune Bringer. She was a determined female warrior who could stay with Roland for so long. Li Ang did not believe that she was Three Prophets's puppet.
"Are you talking about this girl? Give me a body and I can leave her and she will be safe... This body is not suitable for me."
Media frowned again, she seemed to be in pain.
"Can you possess anyone's body? If you have such ability, why should you be a prophet..."
Li Ang also frowned. It would be terrible if Three Prophets had the ability to forcibly control anyone's body at will...
But this is impossible, otherwise why would they do so many tricks?
"Of course not... Just like you, we can only forcefully suppress the souls of the weak."
Media glanced at Li Ang, and his voice became very soft. "Lord Li Ang, you are actually the same as us, right?... You also have no body, this body does not belong to you... You are Chosen of God!"
Li Ang looked at Media in surprise. This prophetess was actually right.
It seems that Three Prophets can indeed see things that others cannot.
Like... soul.
But Li Ang did not answer, but changed the topic. "Can you use witchcraft to suppress other people's souls and then replace them? In other words, my soul is not safe either?"
"You have Noldo blood veins in your body. I can tell...Noldo blood veins are actually equivalent to the forbidden magic circle. Our Divine Art won't work... otherwise I would definitely control you instead of this little girl. I'm curious, how did you occupy this body?"
Media looked at Li Ang with squinted eyes. "If I couldn't see your soul, I would even think you were some abyss demon..."
"So, your witchcraft is actually only effective for human souls..."
Li Ang can understand what Media means. To be honest, he and Aigrem are truly the same kind - they both belong to Spirit Body who was summoned from another world, but Li Ang happens to be a human being.
Media slowly shook his head and sneered, "Witchcraft? Haha... Lord Li Ang, we are not using witchcraft. If I tell you that soul possession is what Goddess of Justice and Dark Goddess have, Divine Art, do you believe it?"
"I believe..."
Li Ang smiled, "I even think that it is because you have mastered such Divine Art that you left the Goddess of Justice temple and changed from the priest of Astaria to the prophet of Erebus..."
Media obviously didn't expect Li Ang to react like this. She was completely stunned. "Do you believe it?"
Li Ang nodded seriously. "Of course, the better the reputation of a god, the more he needs such abilities..."
"... You are indeed different from what we imagined. I originally thought you were Astaria's lackey... In this case, Lord Li Ang, let's make a deal..."
Media showed a surprised expression. She paused and made a request. "You release Anna and Cersi, and I will return this girl to you, and our three sisters can help you with things - you should also know that we have done a lot of things for King Ulrich, and you will need us."
"I don't want to end up like Ulrich... Moreover, Media, if my guess is correct, you should have met Aigrem, right?"
Li Ang glanced at Heretic Codex who was hugged tightly by Media: "Aigrem couldn't have been summoned by you using Heretic Codex, right?"
"Heretic Codex? You mean Abyssal Gate, right? It's not me. The one who summoned Aigrem is another group of people, a group of fools who don't know anything. I did meet Aigrem two days ago, but in fact it was the one who found me on its own initiative - it took Abyssal Gate from me."
Media shook his head and explained very happily, without any pause or consideration at all.
"What exactly does Abyssal Gate do? I heard that you stole Heretic Codex from the Temple of Justice thirty years ago... why?"
Li Ang looked at Media, judging from her attitude towards Heretic Codex, he thought what she said was true.
"The so-called Heretic Codex is the door to Blood Prison Abyss... We took it away from the temple thirty years ago just to better protect it and prevent Gloomy Eye from appearing in this world again. We are the designated gatekeepers of Goddess Eredar, and we have been living in Abyssal Gate before that..."
Media answered quickly and didn't look like he was lying.
Li Ang looked at Media in surprise. "So, the dark Goddess Eredar and Aigrem are enemies? Then why do those heretics Seekers who summon demons call themselves followers of Dark Goddess?"
"Just throwing dirty water...Aigrem is the demon of the abyss, and it is the enemy of all gods! Goddess Eredar has always been the watcher of the abyss, the patron saint who blocks demons! But the world has forgotten her...Astaria, who claims to be righteous, even excluded Goddess Eredar from the main divine system! But even though he suffered such injustice, Goddess Eredar still did not forget his mission..."
Media gritted his teeth and said, "If it weren't for watchers like Goddess Eredar, this world would have been occupied by abyss demons long ago! Why do you think those so-called main gods never show miracles? Because they all act like Deserters! Devourers are their natural enemies, they are afraid of being devoured Spirit Body... These so-called main gods will only hide in distant areas, sit back and watch people fend for themselves, but enjoy people's worship with peace of mind..."
"I don't quite believe what you say, Media--I have personally seen you produce a large number of Fallen One, and I have also personally seen your Flesh and Blood Armor..."
Li Ang did not expect that Media would suddenly have such deep resentment, but he did not think that Dark Goddess was an upright god who had been wronged - judging from the way Three Prophets behaved, it was obviously not very upright.
"Because our Goddess has been exiled! We can only learn the magic of the abyss demon, and use this method to force those so-called Lord Gods to give in and let Goddess Eredar return!"
Media answered without hesitation, "It is for this reason that we have been cooperating with the Lionheart Kingdom to do some dirty things for the king and at the same time enhance our strength."
This reason does seem a bit like the truth - creating Fallen One forced other gods to put back the expelled Dark Goddess. After all, according to Media, it was Erebus who sealed Aigrem in the first place.
Three Prophets made Fallen One from their followers, and the techniques are indeed half-baked, and they are probably self-taught.
"Then, why did Aigrem steal Abyssal Gate from you?"
Li Ang nodded. He didn't want to get entangled in these matters between gods. He was more concerned about how to deal with Aigrem.
"It wants to summon its mate... There is more than one Gloomy Eye. They are the ruling class of the abyss. You can also call them soul devourers. They have no entity, so they cannot be killed... The so-called demon warriors summoned by idiots who call themselves Seekers are actually just the lowest lemures in the abyss, low-level creatures whose souls have been swallowed."
Media looked down at Heretic Codex in his arms. "As long as you sacrifice your evil soul and clean flesh and blood to the abyss, Gloomy Eye in the blood prison will be able to obtain a physical entity. With the physical entity, they can break out of Abyssal Gate and appear in this world. But fortunately, your people interrupted Aigrem's sacrifice ceremony..."
