Chapter 365 -353: These wizards have been bewitched by the devil, and their minds are already in serious disarray!

Lahuan carefully returned home, locking the unstable front door tightly before entering the empty inner room where he prostrated himself on the ground and spoke with utmost respect.

“Lord Pulson!”

As his voice fell, a figure in a golden-red robe appeared before him, a commanding aura filling the room, making it difficult to breathe.

“No one followed you today or noticed anything amiss,” Pulson asked sternly.

“No, although those Wizard minions are thorough in their search, they never harm civilians without cause,” Lahuan replied, his voice filled with fear and reverence.

Pulson’s tense expression eased slightly as he continued to inquire, “Did you manage to find out any useful information?”

He had arrived in the capital through a secret passage five days ago but had remained in hiding without making any further moves.

...

It was undoubtedly the right decision, as Pulson had discovered that the security in the capital was much stricter than anticipated.

Each district was guarded by musketeers, with squads supporting each other, making it difficult to dislodge these posts one by one.

In such circumstances, Pulson even dared not use Divine Arts carelessly, lest he be detected.

Fortunately, their luck hadn’t run out.

Not far from this ancient well-connected area, they found a rather devout Believer.

After some persuasion, he became their informant, responsible for gathering information from the outside world.

“My lord, according to the information I gathered, those Wizard minions have captured five Griffin Knights who were shot down and are now detained in the prison established in the western district,” Lahuan said, bowing his head.

“It seems Arno has indeed been captured…” Pulson thought to himself.

With his strength, Arno wouldn’t have been killed instantly even if he couldn’t escape the Thunder Net that spread over the capital’s skies.

Since no chaos had erupted in the capital, he was most likely captured.

Pulson recalled the map of the capital; the prison wasn’t too far from here.

Although he didn’t particularly like the arrogant Arno, he was still a colleague.

It would be helpful to rescue him as it would increase their chances in the upcoming battles within the capital.

“Also…

today, while I was at the market, I heard those devils’ Believers saying…” Lahuan hesitated, unsure whether to continue.

“What did they say?” Pulson frowned.

“They said the Bible…

the Bible contains many errors,” Lahuan stammered.

For instance, the Bible’s geocentric theory is actually incorrect; in fact, the continent beneath their feet is revolving around the Sun due to something called gravity.

Moreover, the continent is round, not flat, because when standing at sea and looking at distant watchtowers, you always see the top of the towers first, then the body…

and the phenomenon of a lunar eclipse is actually when the planets align between the Sun and the Moon, and the eclipse they see is the shadow of the continent below them…

“Those Wizards even claim to have calculated the circumference of this continent as forty-three thousand two hundred kilometers,” Lahuan said, his voice trembling slightly.

The source of this c𝐨ntent is freёnovelkiss.com.

“Absurd!” Pulson burst out laughing in anger.

Those followers of the Evil God were simply letting their imaginations run wild.

How could the continent beneath their feet be round?

Wouldn’t they all fall off then?

And a circumference of forty-three thousand two hundred kilometers, how was that calculated?

Did they measure it with a ruler?

Those Wizards dare to confuse the Believers of the divine with such ridiculous claims!

It’s preposterous!

Lahuan paused and did not continue.

The other side had also conducted some bizarre experiments at the scene, proving these conclusions that sounded against common sense.

The neighboring hunter’s child whispered to him that he had understood and could even replicate those experiments, suggesting that their continent might indeed be round, but he himself was completely lost throughout.

“It seems these wizards have been bewitched by the devil, their minds heavily deranged,” Pulson said with a sneer, then immediately inquired about the residence with the strictest guards.

Pulson had a premonition that this place was no ordinary one, guarded even more closely than the royal palace, surely hiding some unspeakable secret.

Lahuan shook his head.

The place was guarded round the clock, and he simply had no way to get close.

“In that case, go and rest for now,” Pulson said, showing no intention of troubling Lahuan further, and waved him off to sleep.

At the same time, shadows began to take solid forms from the ether in this small room, and the leader of the Hidden Guard reached out to hand over a scroll of secret orders.

Pulson solemnly took it, and after reading, immediately set it on fire and destroyed it.

The time was tonight!

…

At midnight, at the eastern segment of the capital’s walls, Ham clutched his musket, stationed in front of a watchtower, as waves of sleepiness attacked his brain, making it blurry.

Although the guards were rotated every night and even split into two shifts, he was over fifty and didn’t have the energy of his younger days, struggling to keep up after several hours.

“Maybe sleep a little, the enemy surely won’t attack in the dead of night, and others are keeping watch too, one more or one less of me doesn’t make a difference.”

This thought flickered continuously in Ham’s mind, but thinking of his duty, he mustered strength again.

Just a little longer, just a little while until the shift change…

In his half-sleep half-awake state, Ham felt as if the ground were shaking violently, growing stronger and stronger.

“Wake up, enemy attack!” Just then, a loud shout came from another watchtower.

Ham was jolted awake, instinctively mounting his musket on the wall, but seeing only darkness ahead except for the fiery watchtower that faintly illuminated distant figures.

Luckily, the wizards stationed on the walls also reacted, sending hundreds of dazzling fireballs into the air.

The explosions lit up everything in front of them.

Ham and others gasped in cold air, the enemy troops, tens of thousands in array, had already crossed the two-kilometer warning line and entered their range of attack.

At the very front stood priests and bishops in white robes, numbering over a thousand, praying loudly; even from two kilometers away, their hymns could be heard clearly.

“Damn, they’re launching a full assault!” exclaimed Sanchez, with a grave expression, in charge of the rotation.

Just a few days ago in that battle, these groups of priests had merely watched the fodder rush forward to their deaths.

But now, they were the first to act.

Sanchez immediately realized that this was no trivial skirmish.

This was! a decisive battle!
