The magic ring was dispensable to William, but to Strauss and the others, although they had seen holy items that were more powerful than the ring, the deer head ring was the only magic equipment they could use in the past few decades.
A holy item that could not be used, no matter how powerful it was, it would only look good.
When they saw the deer head symbol on the ring, the five of them quickly understood that it was a sign of William's approval. From now on, the five of them would have the support of the Grand Wizard of Holy Light.
Not to mention how many other benefits they could get from William, the psychological effect was very obvious.
After putting on the deer head ring, the five of them clearly felt that their spirits had improved a lot. Their eyes seemed to be able to see through many things that they could not see in the past.
"From this moment on, you only have one task at this stage, and that is to clean up all the surviving dark creatures in Rome."
Strauss led the other four and nodded respectfully, "Yes, sir."
Even if William did not say this, they would have taken action themselves.
With William and the Stonewing Monster's cleaning up just now, most of the remaining dark creatures in Rome would definitely escape.
And those that did not escape would be used as practice. At the same time, they could also announce the existence of the ascetics to the people in the Holy See, so they could get more resources and manpower.
What's more, the place where the Holy See was located had a large number of demons hidden. In the past, they could not do much about it, and they could pretend that they did not know.
But now that they had the means to discover the demons, it was not as difficult to deal with these low-level demons as they had imagined.
After all, a weapon engraved with the word 'Feng' could kill most of the low-level demons. Even if they had to pay with human lives, they must clean up their own territory. Otherwise, they would not be qualified to say anything else.
Seeing the five of them had their eyes lit up, William knew that his idea was right. These ascetics who were not valued for many years did not hesitate to hunt down demons and dark creatures. Instead, they were faintly excited.
Once the two sides started fighting, there would be no possibility of resolving the conflict in the future. William smiled and said, "I will ask someone to buy the manor of the Demon Prince Benat. It will be my foothold in Rome.
In the future, no matter who it is, as long as you have meritorious service in the battle against the demons, you can report to me. I will reward you with different treasures, cultivation, and even lifespan depending on the situation. "
"Lifespan, lifespan." When he heard that lifespan would be a reward, Strauss couldn't help but look excited and determined. "Understood, sir."
The other four people, who looked to be in their forties or fifties, were also looking at William with excitement and surprise in their eyes.
William nodded affirmatively. "The wonders of magic far exceed your imagination. When you have enough achievements, trust me, Strauss, your life will only begin to dry up."
"Praise you, Your Majesty." Strauss was so excited that he almost knelt down.
He was already over seventy years old. He had lived for a long time, and that was probably the only thing that could move him other than faith.
"I look forward to your performance, gentlemen." With that, William returned to London.
After watching the Stonewing Monster leave, a priest named Siman walked behind Strauss and said in a low voice, "Your Excellency, should we ask His Majesty Devonshire to let the Holy See's holy relics reappear in the world?"
"No, Siman." Strauss looked at the sky and said without turning his head, "If those holy relics are restored, will they be given to us to use?"
Siman was stunned. Was he blatantly standing on the side? Or was he thinking of seizing power?
"Don't worry, Siman. Everything has just begun. If we want to get more, we have to let His Majesty Devonshire see our usefulness." Strauss narrowed his eyes and said, "In the end, strength speaks in this world."
Siman nodded. "Understood, Your Excellency. I will go and gather all the ascetics. The secular ones will belong to the secular ones, and the extraordinary ones will belong to us."
"Very good." Strauss turned around and patted Siman's shoulder with satisfaction. "After we clean up Rome, when we take out the corpses of the dark creatures and when we can let the holy light reappear, everyone will automatically stand on our side."
After saying that, Strauss stretched out his hand and a ball of light energy quickly appeared in his palm. The other four ascetics also stretched out their hands excitedly and silently released a Holy Light Bomb.
The Holy Light Bomb was ridiculous in William's eyes, but to Strauss and the others, from this moment on, five Holy Light Bombs meant that holy magic was no longer a legend.
In the future, the ascetics who had hope would be more determined and united.
Then, the five of them put on their hoods and silently hid in the darkness.
The next day, at 5: 30 pm in London, William took an umbrella and teleported to Long Island Cemetery in New York.
The cemetery was already deserted, but because of the heavy rain, it became even more deserted.
Looking at the spider robot on the tree beside him, William stood on a slope of the cemetery with an umbrella and looked at the high-rise buildings in downtown New York. Not long after, the sound of footsteps came from behind.
William, who had already turned on his mental strength scan, easily knew that the person who came was a graveyard worker wearing overalls and a cowboy hat. He had a face full of whiskers and a thin face.
But after seeing the person's appearance clearly, the burning skull riding an undead horse in his memory immediately appeared.
He didn't expect to meet the legendary Ghost Rider at an ordinary funeral.
And it was a Ghost Rider who had broken away from Mephisto's control and was secretly protecting the San Venganza contract that had a thousand fallen evil spirits.
But this Texas Ranger from more than a hundred years ago didn't understand that a thousand evil spirits were not as important to Mephisto as he thought.
When this Ranger snatched the contract from Mephisto's enemy, Mephisto had already used the contract to trick several enemies.
And if he really wanted to find the Ghost Rider, as long as this Ghost Rider transformed, Mephisto, who had given him his power, would definitely be able to sense where the Ghost Rider was.
"The famous William Devonshire would also stand in a cemetery and look at the scenery?"
This sentence was obviously filled with vigilance and probing, which amused William. Without looking back, he said, "Don't worry, I'm not here for you. I'm not interested in the San Venganza contract in your hands."
The old knight's expression changed drastically, and he instinctively tightened his grip on the shovel.
Only then did William turn around and say with a smile, "Although I'm not interested in you and the contract, let me remind you that Mephisto should be here soon."
Then, he pretended to take a few deep breaths and pointed at the shovel in the knight's hand. "The idea of hiding the contract in the wooden handle is indeed good, but you forgot something."
The old knight hurriedly asked, "What did I forget?"
Holy Light runes and a gentle and holy light appeared in William's eyes. "The smell of sulfur that belongs to demons on you, and the dark power in the contract that is so strong that it makes people unable to look away."
Stared at by the Holy Light runes, the Ghost Rider instinctively took a step back, but was soon stunned by William like everyone else.
