"You mean the God's Punishment Witches? I'm afraid that the mortal king doesn't think so... "
"Power is not only reflected in military force." Pasha pointed at Zoey. "The key to the change in the human kingdom is irreplaceable, and that's where our advantage lies. "
"So that's how it is!" Celine suddenly understood. "Compared to combat ability, this is indeed much more important. "
"Ha..." Zoey put her hand on her forehead. "I'll pass. Let's leave this important task to Faldi and the others."
"Hey, what are you talking about?" Althea said discontentedly, "Why can't I understand anything at all? "
"Pasha is talking about knowledge." The youngest Extraordinary twitched her mouth. "Isn't there an academy, a library, and private scholars in His Majesty's Dream World? Since everything in the Dream World comes from his memory, everyone should be able to learn. Compared to selective copying, it's obviously more effective to absorb comprehensively. As long as we can spare some time for entertainment and start from the most basic knowledge, His Majesty will have a group of helpers who can completely understand his intentions after ten years of hard work. "
"The energy of mortals will gradually decline as their bodies age, but we don't have to worry about this. A hundred years is enough for the God's Punishment Witches to become the inheritors of His Majesty's consciousness. This is our biggest advantage." "Pasha added," Especially after he passed away, only we know what the world is like in that world. "
"If they want to continue on the path His Majesty has opened, they have to go through us. In this way, even if we don't be witches, we won't be affected too much. In a sense, unfavorable to us is a futile attempt to overthrow His Majesty's will. The Witch Union will not sit back and do nothing. On the other hand, we only control knowledge, which is good for any faction. Even if we don't have military force, we will still become a force that can lift heavy loads easily. "
"Isn't this what the Cloud School does?" Alcha muttered.
According to legend, when most humans were still ignorant, some sages gathered together and spread the seeds of civilization. They taught people how to make iron, weave and cut clothes, and farm animals until humans spread all over the Land of Dawn. Hundreds of years later, their prestige was like the sun in the sky, and all those in power did not hesitate to use all kinds of means to rope them in, turning many members from the disseminators of knowledge into the private property of power.
After the leaders of the past became aware of this, they moved the organization out of the major cities and stipulated that they were not to easily get involved in politics. They were to only focus on researching the mysteries of the world and solving the mysteries of the ancient ruins. Since the new base was located at the peak of a tall mountain, it was covered by clouds and mist all year round, so people called it the Cloud School.
Even though these people rarely interacted with the rest of the world, their status was still extraordinary. Regardless of the succession of monarchs, they were always respectful to the Cloud Sect. Every year, they would send out large amounts of resources and young disciples just to receive pointers from their predecessors.
However, the good times did not last long. Demons soon entered the human world, and the first Battle of Divine Will broke out. It was also at that time that a disturbing rumor gradually spread. It was said that it was a sage from hundreds of years ago who had introduced these brutal and terrifying beasts to the Land of Dawn.
As a result, the Cloud School's reputation plummeted. Without any suzerains willing to lend a helping hand, it was devoured by the devils and became a dusty corner of history.
"At least we won't collude with the demons," Celine said disapprovingly. "And the title of Manager of Knowledge is not bad, much better than the titles of the Quest Society. "
[All in all, this is just a preliminary direction. After all, all future plans will only be meaningful after we defeat the demons. Pasha smiled and patted Celine's head. "Well, let's go adjust the soul instrument. When the celebration outside is over, we should be ready here. I don't think His Majesty has the patience to wait until tomorrow. "
*****
When the people in the city were still celebrating the victory, Roland had already entered the Third Border City with the main members of the united front.
He really couldn't wait.
If the Devil City in the memory fragment was an old scene from hundreds of years ago, then the information stored in the brain of this Senior Demon was the latest information about the enemy. Since normal intelligence channels were ineffective against the alien races, this opportunity was extremely important.
However, as soon as he stepped into the core hall area, he noticed a trace of strangeness.
He saw the Taquila witches standing in a neat line in the center of the hall, and the leaders were the three Senior Witches who had incarnated as original carriers.
Then the God's Punishment Witches raised their elbows, crossed their fingers in front of their chests, and bowed to him.
This was not the first time he had seen such a strange salute, but it should be the special salute of the inferior witches to the superior. However, before he could ask, the three carriers also crossed their tentacles in front of their bodies and dropped to the ground. Among them, Pasha's voice also sounded in his mind. "Thank you, Your Majesty. The Taquila will always be loyal to you." "
This surprised Roland. The first sentence of gratitude was understandable, probably because they saw the hope of defeating the demons and taking revenge, but the wording of the second sentence was obviously a little strange. Although the united front also required all members of the Union to serve the leader, the other party's respectful attitude told him that the two were not the same thing.
He suddenly remembered that the Senior Witches themselves were the upper class of the Union, and the only people they needed to salute to were the three Transcendents.
"Do they think I'm one of the Three Chiefs of the Union?"
Although he did not know why the other party's attitude had changed, he had been in power for so long that he knew it was not the time to get to the bottom of it, no matter how slow he was about politics.
Roland coughed twice, regarded it as an ordinary salute, and nodded. "No need to do this. This victory belongs to everyone present. By the way, how are the preparations for the soul transfer? "
"We can start at any time." Pasha pointed to a magic core behind her that was emitting a purple light. "Please follow me." "
Following her to the bottom of the core, Roland noticed that there were two stone beds next to them. On the bed on the left lay a male God's Punishment Warrior who had lost both his feet. His hair was already gray, and it was obvious that he had been transformed for a long time. On the right lay a body that did not look like a human at all. Not only were its limbs incomplete, but even its black armor was full of dents. It was hard to imagine that it was still alive under such circumstances.
"Generally speaking, it can't survive until now." Zoey seemed to have seen through his doubts and took the initiative to explain. "If it wasn't for Miss Nana's treatment, it would have died on the same day. In addition, Lady Agatha also helped a lot. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to preserve the seized Red Mist for so long. However, in order to prevent the Senior Demon from reviving on the way, we have to make a series of adjustments. That's why it looks like this now. "
"Adjustments?" Vendy was puzzled. "How do you do it?"
"It's very simple. When you feel that it has recovered, you stab it and try to make it consume as much magic power as possible to heal itself. It's just that it's my first time doing this kind of work, so there were a few times when it almost died, "Zooey said with a look of longing.
Sure enough, this was what she had been looking forward to the most.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little stiff, Roland cleared his throat and said, "So, hurry up... start the transfer now."
