"What? I asked you to burn the witches, but you were all burned by the witches? "
The fleeing rebels quickly spread the news that 500 cavalrymen had been wiped out by a single person.
Along with the news, there was also the first appearance of a true great demon king in history.
A once powerless peasant girl who had been wantonly tortured by a few village priests and sent to the stake had been chosen by the demon king to destroy 500 cavalrymen!
The Adjudicators were a force to be reckoned with in any grand duke's territory or kingdom.
Now, they had been completely annihilated by the fire.
"Demon king, no, it's the Devil God!"
"The flames seemed to have emerged from hell and burned everything!"
"There were also hundreds of Hellsteeds charging. They were the Burning Legion under the command of the Devil God!"
The few survivors were talking hysterically and crazily at the same time. It was obvious that they had lost their minds.
The various dukes and bishops sorted out some useful information with great difficulty and then sent people to the scene to investigate.
The scene was scorched and corpses were strewn everywhere. Nothing could be more realistic than this. No one dared to doubt the existence of the demon king anymore.
Not only were the lords shocked, but even the king of the north and the pope of the One God religion were alarmed.
They naturally knew that witches had nothing to do with demons. They burned witches purely because women were easier to take the blame for.
Those who truly obtained power from demons included both witches and male wizards. Most of them were exorcists supported by some kingdoms.
Demons did not discriminate between genders when choosing their candidates and gave them different knowledge.
The widely circulated definitions were all made up by the One God religion.
Why did they persecute witches so much? It was just that the world was extremely unfriendly to women. After women obtained knowledge and power, they were often extremely rebellious and wanted to fight for the status of the entire female community.
In contrast, male wizards did not have such thoughts after obtaining power. Male status was supported by the entire society. They were born with it and did not need to worry. They could be dealt with with with some money or a small piece of land.
Therefore, male wizards could integrate into the ruling class, but not witches.
Regardless of whether their power came from demons or came from their own understanding of suffering, they were all treated as evil.
In the end, the entire society bound witches and demons together. It had become a custom.
"Another witch who serves demons has appeared, and... she's so powerful!" The pope listened to his subordinate's report and felt incredulous.
Since ancient times, there had never been a single sorcerer who could match up to a hundred professional soldiers.
Not to mention that there were 500 of them, and a large number of them were plate-armored knights.
This was the most powerful demon known to man. It could be called a Demon King or Demon God.
"She's been on her way. Where is she going?"
"I think we're going to the capital of Reid. Pope, King Reid hopes that you can send the Ascetics to suppress the Demon King, otherwise … "A bishop said. The unfinished words were undoubtedly that the kingdom would recognize the legitimacy of the witch's power and then try to rope her in.
There was no way to capture and burn a witch, so they could only fool the people and say that she was not a witch, but a saintess.
"Hmph, we definitely cannot lower our heads to the darkness!" the Pope solemnly declared.
Capturing Hina had already been a big deal. Now, the One God religion couldn't let it go even if they wanted to. They had to persevere until the end and eliminate the demon.
Otherwise, the deeply rooted theocracy of thousands of years would be shaken, and the countries would no longer be so obedient in the future.
"Send the Pope's Guards and the Ascetics of the Holy Land. She's just a spokesperson for the demon. The power of the demon can't extend to the human world. This is an oracle passed down by God in the past. It's not a lie! Even if this demon is very strong, it's impossible for her to defeat the 3,000 Pope's Guards, "the Pope said seriously.
"Yes!"
…
For more than 20 days, Mo Qiong was addicted to self-abuse and couldn't extricate himself.
In less than a month, his mental strength had increased by more than 100 points. Now, it was at 630 points.
At this rate, he would be able to reach 1,000 points in three or four months.
Unfortunately, as a member, Mo Qiong couldn't immerse himself in cultivation all the time. Although studying was also a task, the higher-ups only gave him a month.
After completing the assigned learning task and receiving some rewards, he had to continue to perform other tasks.
This time, he only needed to master a certain level of mental resistance, be proficient in mental communication, and know how to seal memories. The additional task was to learn a psychological suggestion.
Unexpectedly, he was proficient in mental communication, memory sealing, and psychological suggestion right after awakening. He had already learned them in the past month.
The learning method was very simple. First, he taught them to low-dimensional people. Although the low-dimensional people were low-level, they weren't fools.
One person couldn't learn them in a short period of time. With hundreds and thousands of people studying them together, each of them analyzing and understanding these two skills from different angles, it would be much faster for him to learn them alone.
In the end, Mo Qiong integrated all of them together. He relied on high-dimensional suppression and spirit control to obtain all of their understandings. He then combined these understandings and practiced seriously for a few hours, grinding them into something that was his own. He would then be able to grasp techniques that others might take a month to learn.
Basically, pure knowledge itself could be learned this way. As long as it wasn't very special knowledge or ability.
Memory sealing and psychological suggestion were just a way to use them. Even if Earth's mental strength was special, these two methods could also be done by the mental strength of other worlds. Therefore, the knowledge itself was very simple.
It could be said that before a month was up, Mo Qiong had already exceeded the learning task.
However, he didn't just want to complete the task. His goal was the establishment of Bastet's team. Therefore, before the time was up, he wouldn't leave.
Such good training time couldn't be wasted. In the future, when he was busy with other missions, he could only use his consciousness to transmigrate.
In the past 20 days, Hina hadn't been idle. Ever since she set fire to the Judgement Team, the small nobles and priests she met on the way didn't dare to provoke her.
She swaggered past on horseback. Those feudal lords acted as if they didn't see her, but they secretly reported her whereabouts.
Some of the small subjugation teams organized by the lords of the Reid Kingdom didn't dare to go on a crusade against the witches after sending a few waves of them.
The only thing they gained was a better understanding of the witches' power.
They knew that the witches' power was … the magic sword! The silver-white sword that the Demon King bestowed upon the witches contained strong magic power and would emit a terrifying flash. When a human body or even a weapon or armor came into contact with it, they would be knocked down by the magic sword. Even with all the classic treatment methods, they could still die.
However, a new treatment method was recently found. That was to send devout priests to recite prayers. The poor people destroyed by the magic sword would be blessed by the gods and wake up on their own.
Exploding Magic Box. It was rumored that the witches tortured soldiers, took out their tortured souls, poured them into an iron box, and threw it out to explode. It would emit a powerful shockwave and flame. There was no way to restrain it. Those who were blown up would either die or be crippled.
Soul Torment. The witches would frighten the souls of people, conveying a feeling of incomparable pain. It would cause people to be in so much pain that they wished they were dead, but it wouldn't hurt them. After being tortured, they might say some crazy things. Those who weren't devout might fear the witches and be suspected of degenerating into the servants of the devil. The way to deal with them was to 'hang' them and send them to heaven.
Hellfire. The Demon King gave the witches the power to summon hellfire through their eyes. They could summon flames from hell and appear on people or objects out of thin air. The temperature was extremely high and was more powerful than ordinary flames. There was no solution.
Meteor Fall. The Demon King gave the witches the power to summon boulders. Huge boulders would appear in the sky and crash down, or multiple boulders would form a chaotic rain. The way to restrain it was … to dodge.
Magic Missile. The witches had a strange dark magic weapon. They could continuously release powerful and fast magic missiles. Those who were hit would either die or be injured. The way to restrain it was … to wear plate armor and hold a heavy shield to resist.
Telekinetic Impact. The witches could release an impact force like air with their eyes. The lethality wasn't great and was often used to block arrows.
Demonic Essence. The Demon King put a strange substance on the wound. It could quickly heal external injuries. Some survivors found a bottle abandoned by the witches. There was a little Demonic Essence left in it. Using it would cause one to fall. It was now taken away by the Church for purification.
"Is this all true? Can the Demon King really cross worlds and do this? God has made it clear that demons can't exert their power in the human world. They are all imprisoned in hell that is incomparably far away and impossible to reach. "The Papal Guards chased after the witches and collected information from the defeated subjugation groups along the way.
A man dressed like an ascetic said in a deep voice, "I can't do this either. In terms of spirit and soul, I can only put her to sleep at most. In terms of telekinesis, I'm better than her. But other things like summoning meteorites and hellfire are simply unbelievable. I don't even know how she did it. "
"Sir Augus, it's not over yet. The witches have an even more terrifying move." The knight in charge of collecting information said.
"There's more? Even more terrifying? There's something even more terrifying than hellfire? "The ascetic Augus said in shock.
The knight read the latest piece of information about the witches in horror, "Terrifying Ballad. It was released by a mysterious magic box from the void. Even the witches had to avoid the range of the magic sound. It can be said that this is the only magic sound attack that the Demon King personally cast. It's unsolvable … completely unsolvable … It directly disintegrated the subjugation group personally organized by King Reid. There were a total of ten thousand soldiers. Whether it was the exorcists, the priests, or the knights … they were all … "
"What? Even the witches had to avoid an attack personally cast by the Demon King? Ten thousand soldiers all died? "Augus said in shock.
"No … No … The Demon King's subjugation group, more than ten thousand people, were all … turned into women." The knight trembled.
"What did you say! Women? Wait a minute, what do you mean? "Augus was a little confused.
"It means exactly what it means … That Demon King turned heroic knights, noble nobles, and holy priests into women … It's said that it's always effective and fundamentally changed gender. If the Demon King hadn't pierced countless needles into their bodies to protect them, they might have all died." The knight said.
Augus frowned, "Only turned into women and not injured? And protected from death? What kind of disintegration is this? "
"Sir … In the end, more than eight thousand people surrendered to her and were willing to support her in persuading the king to change their faith." The knight said.
Augus was confused, "Why? Why did they surrender to her? What kind of joke is this? Change their faith? "
The knight said in a low voice, "Because women can't have fiefs … They can't have official positions, they can't become knights, they can't become high-ranking priests … They can't … they can't …"
He said a lot of 'they can't' in detail.
"This!" Augus finally understood.
After those noble knights and high-ranking priests were turned into women, it was already against the current system. They had to support the women because they had become women themselves.
Originally, they were people with vested interests and naturally looked down on the witches. But now, if they didn't take the opportunity to side with the witches and borrow the power of the demons to change the current situation of the kingdom, would the kingdom and the church still tolerate them in the future? They were no longer legal.
Augus knew very well what it meant to persuade the king. If they couldn't persuade him, they would have to use force.
Even if the witches didn't want to be recognized, those nobles would have to persuade the witches to fight for the status of women. With that terrifying ballad, those nobles would dare to rebel.
After all, if the king was also turned into a woman, for the sake of his throne, he would definitely change his faith! If he didn't change his faith, he would change his faith. The current system would also undergo drastic changes.
"Evil! Extremely evil! Quick! Let's speed up, this witch must die! She must die! "Augus said in fear.
