Chapter 351: Chapter 299: Overthrow the Faser Gods!
"I... I..."
The boy’s face was flushed with embarrassment.
Lady Yongge raised her head in astonishment: "What... what is this..."
Beside her, the austere middle-aged mage was equally shocked.
Both of them were on the brink of reaching level ten, while one was already in the holy domain.
Thus, they could feel that these simple words contained unparalleled power.
"Master, what... what should I do?" The boy wearing armor, who dared to use a sword to stab Lin Ke’s eyes, stammered as he looked toward his master, a mage.
"Promise Lord Flame Demon! Promise Lord Flame Demon!" At this moment, the boy’s master, that elderly mage, was exceedingly excited.
This old mage had been psychologically crushed by Lin Ke.
Once, he was a homeless beggar, and his parents were killed when they fought others for food.
Fortunately, an old grandmother, also a beggar, took pity on him and adopted him, allowing him to grow up by sheer luck.
However, that kind-hearted grandmother was burnt to death before his eyes for merely glancing at a certain noble school mage, accused of desecrating the mage with her filthy gaze.
While dying, the grandmother, fearing for the young boy, bit back her pain, curled up her body, and did not utter a sound.
Thus, he joined that school, becoming a knight to the female mage, commonly referred to as cannon fodder.
Later, he inadvertently learned that the grandmother’s death was not due to her glance at the female mage.
The truth was, the female mage thought that though he was a beggar, his appearance was decent, and wanted to recruit him for eye candy.
Driven by revenge, he destroyed that small school and fled that city.
With access to various school texts, he became a rogue mage.
Then through a series of events, Lady Yongge of the Torrent Song School took notice of him, and he became part of the school.
Centuries of life had made him forget the past, focusing only on ascension, and oppressing his former self.
Today, Lin Ke first unsettled their minds and then, through a substantial speech, stirred up his oldest, deepest, and most painful memories.
Now, he was thoroughly submissive to Lin Ke from the inside out.
The armored boy, whom he had once noticed a slight nonconformity in and accepted, he admired dearly, imparting qualities he yearned for but could not achieve.
Such as justice, resilience, and kindness.
Unexpectedly, when they, a group of noble mages, were under oppression, the one who rose to resist was this boy.
"Go, follow Lord Flame Demon!" With enthusiasm burning in his heart, he wished to immediately turn into a fire mage: "Also, don’t call me master!"
"Yes!" The armored boy, cheeks flushed, looked at Lin Ke and echoed his words: "Lord Flame Demon, I shall follow you until the stars fall, the world collapses, the rules are annihilated... even unto death!"
Upon hearing this, the crowd felt an inexplicable shock, not knowing what to say.
Lin Ke didn’t ask others to also make a vow but raised his arm to shout: "We... first need to overthrow the Blue Light Celestial City’s Temple! Divine Hall of the Sea God! And then liberate all of Faser!"
The crowd was stunned.
Many people whose emotions were previously stirred suddenly felt drenched in cold water.
This... directly overthrow the temple in Blue Light Celestial City?
Not to mention whether there are many powerful beings inside, even under the gaze of the Sea God watching over them, they wouldn’t be allowed to do such a thing.
Unexpectedly, Lin Ke mysteriously smiled and pointed toward the sky: "The gods are attacked by foreign entities; at this moment, they are occupied, this is our opportunity to rise!"
"There are both good and evil among the foreign entities; we can indeed learn from and seek aid from those benevolent ones, using their strength to become strong, to establish a nation of our own!"
To put it simply, in summary, to encapsulate it...
Use foreign strengths to conquer foreign entities!
As soon as Lin Ke finished speaking, a clear cry resonated from the sky.
"Screech!!!"
A noble and exquisite bird flew above them, simultaneously, a person descended from above, bringing a clear and beautiful song.
A girl dressed in a black and white maid outfit softly and gracefully landed on the ground.
The girl, with a slightly bashful expression and a slightly red face, had golden, beautiful hair instead of a mage’s headpiece.
"Under the command of the Great Wilderness Desolate Lord, ’Singer of Destiny’ Sophie, greetings, Lord Flame Demon!"
The girl spoke with a smile, her voice akin to a kingfisher singing in the morning, smoothing the crowd’s initial fearfulness.
The girl’s voice contained a peculiar strength.
"I am Flame Demon." Lin Ke, pretending to be solemn, said: "In that temple... there seems to be a holy domain and divine oversight... hopefully, you can resolve it for us!"
This... is a foreign entity!?
The crowd was suddenly frightened again.
"You... are you a foreign entity?!" Lady Yongge looked at Sophie, pupils shrinking.
"Yes." Sophie sweetly smiled: "But we come for friendship, not those foolish ones who only know war."
Speaking of those who only know war, a hint of disdain flickered in Sophie’s eyes.
Disdain for war... Lady Yongge, with furrowed brows, caught sight of disdain in Sophie’s eyes and seemed to understand a bit of the Great Wilderness Desolate Lord’s thinking.
Are they really here for friendship?
"I have contacted them, contacted these foreign entities!"
Lin Ke’s voice resounded anew: "Foreign entities also have good and bad ones! Just like Faser People, there are good and bad people! The only difference is they lack our mage headpieces!"
Lin Ke pointed to Sophie performing: "Look, she is under the command of that lord, but apart from the headpiece, she is no different from us!"
The crowd looked over and indeed noticed it, so they gradually grew bolder.
"Lady Sophie, may I ask, when can you attack that temple?" Lin Ke asked loudly.
"Now is fine, leave those over level ten to us." Sophie sweetly smiled, repeating what Lin Ke had previously instructed her to say: "By the way, don’t forget the agreement... our lord is very interested in the magic of Flame Demon’s true form～"
Above level ten?
The magic of Flame Demon’s true form?
Lady Yongge and others knew instantly that they were not helping them for free.
"Of course! I know the Great Wilderness Desolate Lord’s principle is trade fairness, correct? Those who give will surely receive, yes?" Lin Ke said loudly.
"Exactly, it can also be called: those who receive will surely give." Sophie glanced around: "We do not interfere in any wars subjectively, but we can all be hired, in the Great Wilderness, equitable exchange is our principle!"
"Good!" Lin Ke loudly agreed, then said excitedly: "Thank you for your help, foreign entities... Great Wilderness People!"
With that, Lin Ke turned to face everyone, solemnly and respectfully declared: "Ladies and gentlemen... the time has come!"
"To overthrow the mountain above our Faser!"
"To return faith to ourselves!"
"Starting with... the Sea God!"
