Chapter 291: Chapter 278 Such people should perish in hell forever!

“The devil’s lackey…” “We should report to the kingdom now, arrest William, and strip him of his title!”

Amidst Kodi’s continuous accusations, the bishops and priests within the church were all filled with rage, their cries for punishment resonating back and forth.

Especially North, his face dark as water, emanating a cold aura, had it not been for Cardinal Anluoke’s silence, he would have killed his way into William’s residence already.

The enormous defeat outside the earldom, the countless soldiers and colleagues dying before him, all fueled the raging fire within North’s heart.

As a lackey to the Wizards, William who consistently supplied the Wizard Land was beyond redemption, even casting him into hell wouldn’t suffice to quell the hatred!

...

As William has been working for those Wizards, why then did he relay those two pieces of information to me?” Anluoke continued to inquire.

Regarding the movements of Prince Hattar, the Church was not completely oblivious, and it might be safe to say that most of the kingdom’s nobility had noticed, given Hattar’s far too clumsy performance at the great hall.

The only thing they hadn’t foreseen was that the opposition had the audacity to seize the throne by force. There was no second explanation other than being bewitched by the devil.

“It was Master Helram, William’s go-between, who died…” Kodi struggled to get the words out.

Under the confession-like revelation, the power of Divine Arts was ebbing away, and Kodi was regaining some awareness, but facing the most powerful man in the entire kingdom, the Cardinal of the church, he dared not tell any lies, knowing he would be easily exposed.

Not to mention he had already revealed far too much information, both what should and should not have been disclosed; only by continuing to speak did he have a sliver of a chance to survive…

“And… there seems to be chaos within the Wizard Land, for the fog of the Mist Sea has shown signs of dissipating lately, that’s why Lord William thinks that the end days of those Wizards are near…”

“The Mist Sea?” North and the others couldn’t help but pause for a moment, immediately turning their heads to look at Anluoke, hearing for the first time about that so-called sacred land of Wizards, the Evil God’s stronghold, right on the other side of the Mist Sea!

Anluoke showed not the slightest emotion. Concerning the changes in the Mist Sea, the Holy Bible had provided a prophecy two months earlier.

“Is the rebellion of those mine slaves related to these followers of the Evil God from Wizard Land?” North sharply rebuked.

“Lord William doesn’t know much about it, the new Wizard in charge doesn’t recognize our authority, but Lord William did find out Anthony was also present at the battlefield,” Kodi swallowed, speaking in a low voice.

“Anthony…” Anluoke murmured softly, finding the name familiar, and well aware that the magic school founded by that great Wizard was active within the capital.

He hadn’t rushed to act against these people, partly because of overt and covert obstruction by the royal family and partially because he wanted to use this opportunity to root out the rot from within the kingdom.

However, he hadn’t anticipated that they would collude with Wizard Land and create a massacre killing tens of thousands.

“How many Wizards have arrived from that Evil Land into the kingdom, and who is their leader?” Anluoke asked.

“I don’t know, but there shouldn’t be too many. The leader is a male Witch named Lynn, who seems very young and is the current ruler of Yiyeta.” Kodi paused before continuing. “I heard he went to Yiyeta from the Sekas Empire two years ago.”

Anluoke inexplicably recalled the reports from North and others that mentioned some bizarre hellfire. With a thought, a golden tome untied itself from his belt, flipping open on its own, and came to a halt on a certain page, presenting it in front of Kodi.

[Name: Carl (Real name unconfirmed)

Extreme Danger (Arch Wizard)

Crimes: Murdering the Imperial Bishop, annihilating three thousand Black Armored Guards, destroying half a harbor town!

Caution: Master of elemental and Shaping Magic, capable of wielding a kind of powerful flame that is difficult to extinguish.

Reward: Sekas Gold Coins… fifty thousand!

“Aside from the name not matching, this must be the Wizard who rules Yiyeta,” Kodi said with certainty, recalling the information he had gathered at Yiyeta Harbor.

Anluoke pondered for a while, then suddenly placed his hand on Kodi’s head.

The Divine Art of probing memory surged into Kodi’s mind instantly, Anluoke trusted what he saw with his own eyes more than Kodi’s words.

About two to three minutes later, after probing Kodi’s memory, Anluoke became absolutely certain of this fact.

No wonder the army led by Duke Rickman suffered such a swift and decisive defeat, their adversaries had been two Arch Wizards!

From Kodi’s memories, Anluoke had discovered many crucial pieces of intelligence.

In the past, when they carried out sea voyages, they would navigate to Wizard Land using a special Compass, so as not to lose their way at sea.

However, this very important device had been taken back by the new ruler of Yiyeta.

Clearly, Kodi wasn’t lying. After Helram’s death, there indeed had been a rift between William and the Wizards, and now the transportation matters had completely nothing to do with William.

Those Wizards were transporting ores from the kingdom in massive amounts, through some kind of wondrous alchemical device that could fly in the sky, most likely for the purpose of producing weapons to deal with the war.

As for the purpose of instigating a rebellion among the mine slaves, Anluoke could also guess, it was nothing more than to create turmoil within the kingdom, to divert their attention, thereby delaying the Holy See’s eradication of this land of evil.

Thinking this, Anluoke’s gaze turned icy as he spoke to Kodi.

“The Lord is forgiving and merciful, tell William that to cleanse his sins, he still needs to show more sincerity. This is your only chance!”

Since these Wizards were able to come and go freely between the two places, they definitely possessed the means to locate Wizard Land.

The Church had been preparing for the war to eradicate Wizard Land two months ago, the only reason why they hadn’t made a move yet was because the ship that went out to sea in search of Wizard Land hadn’t returned yet.

If Anluoke could get his hands on the Compass that locates Wizard Land, or even seize that strange alchemical device that could fly in the sky, that would undoubtedly be a tremendous feat!

Seeing the Cardinal wanting to offer comfort to William, North and the others felt extremely indignant. In their eyes, William was nothing more than a fence-sitter, a double-dealer who couldn’t even be considered repentant. They believed he had simply switched sides and posed with an air of sudden remorse only because the Wizards were on the brink of destruction.

Such a person should be condemned to eternal damnation in hell…
