Hudson would never forget the power that Levis had shown him. It was a power that didn't belong to the category of divine spells. A single person could easily fight against an entire army. The witchcraft they released could blast a dozen people to death from a distance of ten to twenty meters. They could release poisonous smoke that swept through the army like a whirlwind. They were as accurate as puppets on a string, and they could control metal shrapnel to form a metal storm. There were also all sorts of strange things that they called witchcraft.
They also had innate abilities that surpassed Bloodline Knights. Their speed and physical strength were inconceivable, and their strength could easily tear through an army's defenses. Whether it was arrows or swords, they could sense them in advance and easily dodge them. Coupled with their unique body witchcraft, they were practically unstoppable.
If they were given sufficient preparation, they would be able to create even more terrifying large-scale witchcraft. For example, the Space of Death that Levis had shown him before, which could kill everyone in a village in an instant. No one was an exception.
They could use special methods to control others and charm others. Hudson saw that Levis could control himself to fly in the sky for a short period of time, attacking his enemies from above without them being able to harm him in the slightest.
But this wasn't the most frightening thing. According to Levis, what they grasped was knowledge, the truth of the world. As long as they were given time, they could create an army of Bloodline Knights, create witchcraft tools that ordinary people could use, and do many things that ordinary people found impossible or unbelievable. They could strengthen the foundation of an entire country, not just a single powerful faction.
This was what Hudson wanted, and it deeply moved Hudson and the person behind him. The Church of Light was pressing forward step by step, turning the nobles and kings into mere puppets. If they didn't take action now, they might be the next heretics.
If it was just them, they wouldn't have any hope of resisting the Church of Light's continuous expansion. This was especially true when their citizens and their subordinates were all members of the Church of Light. That deep despair constantly gnawed at their hearts.
"We need the power of wizards. Even if their power looks like the power of demons, it's still magic. As long as we can resist the rule of the church, it's worth it."
Hudson had already made up his mind, and he looked expectantly at Pall. According to Leves, this was a Magus who was even more powerful and talented than him. As long as he could rope him in, then he could pull the other Magi into the parliament and borrow the power of the Magi to start their rebellion.
"Mr. Porl Kelermo, as long as you join the Aristocratic Council, one of the nine highest seats in the council will be yours. You will receive the full support of the Aristocratic Council, and you will be able to extend the existence and power of wizards to the entire human world. Whether it is money, power, or other support, we will spare no effort to support you."
"You will never be able to guess how powerful our support is, including the experiments, materials, and all sorts of things that you want to do. As long as you say the word, we can help you find them in the entire continent."
Pall looked at Hudson and chuckled. He stood up and took off his glasses. "So you want to declare war on the Church of Light?"
Borl finished looking at Hudson. Although he was a viscount, in Borl's eyes, he wasn't a threat at all. He also didn't have the right to speak to him like this. Borl looked at Leves and said angrily, "Are you all crazy? Declare war on the Church of Light? Declare war on the gods? Who do you think you are? Master Anthony? "
Pall took a deep breath and said, "Leves, you and I are only low-level wizards. We haven't reached the level where we can ignore everything. The Church has enormous power, twelve powerful Holy Apostles, and a legendary Saintess who wields a divine artifact. What right do you have to be so arrogant?
You and I have both seen the descent of God on the first day of the new year. Don't you know how terrifying God is? That is an existence that has truly grasped the laws of truth. Even the entire world, the sun, the moon, and the stars can be played around with as they please. What are we? An ant under the feet of God? Or a speck of dust? "
Pall thought back to the day when God descended, the entire world and Maria's World changed. All the wizards on the alchemy ship had seen that scene. Even now, Pall felt a deep shock in his heart when he thought about it. Even Leves felt his heart tremble when he thought about it. Just what kind of existence could be so powerful?
Hudson felt a bit angry at Pall's disregard. He stood up and wanted to say something, but Leves stopped him. "Mr. Hudson, don't worry. I will convince him. You can go back first. I will find you tomorrow."
Hudson calmed down and bowed to Pall. "Mr. Pall, please consider this seriously. Our Noble Assembly has come to invite you with the greatest sincerity."
After seeing Hudson out, Leves closed the door. Pall immediately said, "Leves, you can't convince me. Right now, we are no match for the Church of Light. We are just striking a rock with an egg. Have you not considered the consequences of this? The knowledge and power we have will sweep the entire continent. How many people will die? Do you know? "
Leves stood up. "Of course, I know we are no match for the Church, but we are wizards. We explore the unknown and grasp the truth. There is nothing to fear."
Leves looked at Pall. "Do you remember what Teacher said to us during our first lesson?"
Pall froze for a moment, then immediately sank into his memories. "Of course, I will never forget it. Even Teacher's every expression, every word, is deeply engraved in my memory. That lesson opened the way for us to explore the truth." After saying that, the two of them began to read together.
"Wizards are existences that explore the truth of the world, those who thirst for knowledge. Witchcraft is but a byproduct of our understanding of the world's laws. Omniscience is omnipotence. If you understand how the wind, rain, thunder, and lightning are formed, you can control them at will. If you understand the structure of life, you can create life. When you understand the workings of all the laws of the world, then you are God!"
After the two of them finished reading the last word, they immediately fell silent. Leves immediately struck while the iron was hot. "Whether it is God or the Church of Light, nothing can stop us from exploring the unknown and seeking the truth. Wizards will become existences that control the world. We are the true masters of the world."
Leves looked at Pall and said excitedly, "Come, Pall. Together, we will drive the high and mighty Church of Light off their divine pedestals and sweep away the gods that look down on us. We are the true masters of this world."
At this point, Leves' blood was already boiling, and his face was flushed red. "Even if we cannot do it now, there will be a day when we can do it. Fifty years, a hundred years, or even five hundred years, there will be a day when we will succeed. Pall, my brother, don't you want to see wizards lead the world and establish a nation that truly belongs to wizards?"
