Casting spells

You must know that Lord Nasir, in order to regain the hearts of the people, sent people to spread the word in the city that he was about to eliminate the threat of the plague, and provided all citizens with a permanent antidote for free.

But now that something like this happened, it was like lifting a rock and shooting yourself in the foot.

Not to mention regaining the hearts of the people, even his own safety has been seriously threatened.

In order to prevent the people from losing their minds and start attacking the castle, he had to throw out the two wretches as scapegoats. As for whether Vanswick, who was deceived, was a little innocent, and whether the whole trial process was not in line with the concept of the God of Justice, then That's another story.

In the face of the cruelty and darkness of politics, let alone a mere lord, even the priests and paladins in the Church of the God of Justice dare not interfere easily.

Although they were full of unwillingness in their hearts, and even had an urge to kill all these mobs, they did not dare to take actual actions.

Because that would cause the entire Neverwinter city people to resent and hostile to the God of Justice, and even worse, they would rush into the temple and destroy the worshiped statues, altars and holy objects.

In this way, under the watchful eyes of countless pairs of eyes, Deszel and Van Swick were beaten to the brink of death, and then burned to death on the bonfire. The painful screams during the whole process were enough to make normal people have nightmares for a lifetime.

After the two of them had completely turned into charred black corpses, the angry crowd gradually dispersed.

No one noticed at all that in a dark corner of the street not far away, there was a woman clenched her fist tightly, her nails piercing her palm directly, causing bear-red blood to drip down her palm.

She was so desperate, so angry, that she forgot the pain, and her eyes shot sparks of hatred.

That's right!

This person is Van Swick's nominal fiancee!

The strongest paladin in Neverwinter - Erebes de Timarand!

But now, she doesn't have the divine grace that is the hallmark of a paladin, nor does she have the gentle and noble temperament that she usually looks like, and she exudes strong negative emotions all over her body.

Although I have not seen the dark blessings of turning to the evil gods, but the fall is irreversible, and it is only a matter of time.

Van Swick's death made her see everything!

Including the hypocrisy and weakness of the God of Justice and the church, Lord Nasir's inner compromise with power and dirty rule, and the abominable true face of those who desperately want to protect the people.

There is no justice!

There is no justice!

Some are just pure venting!

Even the perpetrator who once needed protection has become the perpetrator under the current chaotic situation!

No one deserves sympathy!

And no one needs saving!

What the entire Neverwinter City needs is a complete purification!

There is only one way to achieve such purification, and that is killing and death!

Just when Erebes was about to wipe away his tears and bury this hot hatred in his heart, he suddenly found a woman in black armor behind him who did not know when to appear behind him.

In a subconscious reaction, she immediately pulled out her long sword and asked sharply, "Who are you?"

"Anger! Pain! Despair! Hatred! You must be desperately eager to do something now to make this city feel the same pain as you, don't you?" the woman in black armor asked rather emotionally.

"So what? This is my own business! You don't need to take care of it!"

"No! You are wrong! What you need now is power! Power enough to launch holy revenge on those bastards! Come on, follow me, I can let you get this power, and I am also willing to give you a chance for revenge. Don't you just want to chop off Lord Nasir's head and enjoy his howling before dying..."

Chapter 924 Depravity and Hatred

Hate is a powerful force, so powerful that even a god would not dare ignore a mortal filled with venomous hatred.

But that power is just as easy to manipulate and exploit.

After all, it is usually impossible for a person full of hatred to remain rational. As long as they can complete their revenge, they don't care what price they have to pay, even if it means selling their soul.

There is no doubt that Erebeth is such a person whose reason is blinded by hatred, and she is also an extremely paranoid woman.

So when she learned that she could obtain the power of revenge, she didn't hesitate at all, and followed the other party directly to the Mandane Manor.

Looking at Zhang Cheng who was sitting on the chair with a half-smile, she finally couldn't help but sneered and sarcastically said, "So you're the one behind all this? It's you who turned the pearl of the Northland into the hellish scene it is now. ?”

"No, dear Ms. Timarand. I'm not the mastermind behind the scenes, at most I can only take advantage of the fire. The ones who really want to make Neverwinter fall into hell are a group of guys that you can't even imagine. The ancient Nesser They were called creator races in the era of Riel, and they existed before human beings created their own civilization." Zhang Cheng explained meaningfully.

Maybe others will think that the woman in front of her has completely degenerated, and there is no possibility of turning back.

But he is very clear about how fragile and unstable the other party's heart is. Maybe he doesn't know when the kind side of human nature will suddenly gain the upper hand, and he will start to regret what he did today.

For such a person, you can use her, but you must not let her feel that you are the culprit behind everything, otherwise, when she switches her position and camp, she will immediately turn her face and become an enemy ruthlessly.

"Creator race?" Erebes frowned subconsciously, obviously never heard of this word.

But that's not surprising.

You must know that although paladins are also special occupations with higher education, most of their daily studies are related knowledge such as scriptures, laws, paintings, sculptures, poems, and art appreciation.

There is really not much to learn about history, especially ancient history, let alone ancient races like the creator race that have completely disappeared tens of thousands of years ago.

"That's right! According to the results of my investigation, these ancient species have just woken up from their slumber and wanted to regain their status, so they conspired to set off this plague that swept across Neverwinter. Of course, this has nothing to do with your heart. The anger in it has nothing to do with hatred. Anyway, no matter what, you have to kill Lord Nasir and destroy the Church of the God of Justice, right?" Zhang Cheng straightforwardly pointed out the target of the other party's revenge.

As the saying goes, love is deep and hate is deep.

When a person feels that a person or organization he loves has betrayed him, then this love will quickly transform into a hot hatred like a volcanic eruption.

Erebes responded with a gloomy face: "Not only the Church of the God of Justice and Lord Nasir! There are also those mobs! They all have to pay for what they have done! Blood and death!"

"Hahahaha! Don't worry, I can fully satisfy you about this." Zhang Cheng laughed and promised. "But before that, I hope you can do me a small favor, and that is to find out the movement of the reinforcements in Waterdeep City. As long as I can do this, I can let you slaughter tens of thousands of people in the entire Neverwinter City. Believe in those The blood and wailing of civilians will appease your wrath."

As an executioner who destroyed two planets and left hundreds of millions of lives without a place to bury him, he didn't care about the lives of the people of Neverwinter.

What's more, when the whole experiment is over, his consciousness will abandon this body, and it doesn't matter how serious the consequences will be.

"Very good! As long as you can meet my request, I will do as you say!" The blackened Erebes had obviously locked on the target of revenge, and chilling eyes shot out from his two eyes. shine.

"Come with me, Timarand, and I will teach you how to fully embrace the darkness and become a qualified dark warrior." After that, Eleanor in black armor nodded at Erebes, and then turned around Go to the guest room on the second floor of the manor.

Watching the two depraved female paladins go away, Valindra pursed her lips and asked with a smile: "My dear master, do you think Erebes can become an outstanding dark guard like Eleanor?"

Zhang Cheng shook his head lightly and replied: "No, you are wrong. It's not whether she can become it, but how short she will surpass it. Although she has a fragile and fickle soul, in terms of qualifications, Eleanor is not Erebeth's opponent at all. By the way, how long will Luskan's army need to prepare before it can start to move?"

"Up to three days!" Valindra gave the deadline without thinking.

"Great! Let's start this war in three days! This time, as a god, I will bestow magical powers on priests, and unite a priesthood through killing and destruction." Zhang Cheng touched his chin with a sinister expression. smile.
