Chapter 695

Sure enough, there are still limitations.

If it could really be used like the power of faith and could also be immune to its side effects, Lothar felt that his next goal would change from becoming the king of Egypt to attacking Rome and seizing the throne.

The side effects of faith are obvious. To use this power, one must be a god and bear the price required of being a deity. Secondly, one's divinity will be eroded by the power of faith - if believers believe that you are a righteous god, even if you were a wicked demon before becoming a god, you will be distorted into a righteous god by faith.

Only something like the Tree of Life, which is rooted underground and has an incomplete mind, can avoid the harm of faith to the greatest extent - because it itself does not have a complete mind.

Looking at the various flags representing the lords of various parties, and the crowd cheering when Lothar spoke, Viviana felt that this scene was very familiar, just like what he did in the Colosseum of Constantinople.

"Captain is really good at this."

Lavinia couldn't help laughing: "Yes, he is really good at it. If he had been the Pope in Avignon, the Vatican would have already fought back to Rome."

"The enthusiasm for faith among people in this era is also moving."

They were much more pious than the citizens and defenders of Constantinople. Even if the enemy they faced was a giant beast as terrifying as the three-headed dragon, they still firmly believed that they would achieve ultimate victory.

Lavinia was a little surprised and asked, "What about you? I remember that you are also a knight of the Order, a high-ranking member of the 'Rose Knights'. Aren't you worried about the presence of so many dark creatures among us?"

Viviana smiled and shook her head: "No, the captain told me about this earlier. Moreover, I traveled to Italy in my early years and sparred with a good wolf swordsman. Later, we became friends. From then on, I knew that even dark creatures, like humans, have good and bad sides."

She paused and said with a wry smile, "Miss Lavinia, please stop using honorifics, or I don't know how to communicate with you."

Lavinia smiled: "Okay. But who is this good wolf swordsman you mentioned? We have four wolves here, maybe he is someone we know."

"Fiore, from the Saluzzo family."

Lavinia was a little surprised: "Ah, that's a coincidence. Losa once used the identity of a Saluzzo tribe member, and Miss Cherinina also studied swordsmanship in Saluzzo, so she is half a member of the Saluzzo family."

"Has Captain ever used the wolf identity before?"

"Um"

Lavinia smiled with some nostalgia: "Come to think of it, he came here specially to recruit me to the ship. We caused a big commotion in Milan together, and he even personally wiped out a wolf clan liquidation team later."

Cherinina's ears twitched slightly. She had actually been "eavesdropping". She didn't expect that Teacher Fiore had actually fought with the famous Candle Knight, but she had never heard the teacher talk about it.

"Ms. Viviana, Fiore is my teacher. Have you ever fought against each other?"

"Ah, that's a coincidence."

Viviana had a sense of fantasy that the world was really small. "That was six years ago. At that time, I was still a young swordsman who had just debuted. I went to Milan to participate in a knight's competition. Because of a small misunderstanding, I fought with Mr. Fiore. Later, when the misunderstanding was resolved, I realized that he and I were both fighting for justice. How is he now?"

Cerinina looked a little depressed. Although Lavinia was also a member of the Bologna family and had a high status, she seldom paid attention to the affairs of the wolf clan and didn't know what the name Fiore meant to the Saluzzo family.

"he died."

After she finished speaking, she glanced at the surprised Candle Knight and added in a low voice: "I killed him with my own hands, in the battle when the Wolf Tribe went on an expedition to Texas."

The atmosphere suddenly became heavy.

Viviana quickly apologized: "I'm so sorry."

Lavinia was a little confused, she really didn't know about this. When she and Lothar made a big fuss in Milan City, the news of the Wolf Tribe's expeditionary failure had just arrived not long ago, and she had never studied the details.

Pre-war mobilization is over.

A convoy carrying supplies entered the camp, distributed the materials, and started a rather simple banquet.

Lothar and the two kings entered a tent together.

"I'm sure you two can guess why I want to meet with you."

Lothar got straight to the point and said, "The enemy's spellcaster, the wizard named Shemaier, has entered the realm of legend. Coupled with the set of artifacts said to be from the Babylonians, the cuneiform clay tablets, I'm sure you two can make a rough judgment of his strength."

Philip and Richard were not shocked by the news. They had previously learned through their respective channels that the other party had a legendary spellcaster, and the Saracens had no intention of concealing the fact.

Richard frowned and said, "Marshal, you and your advisors are not sure you can deal with him?"

Lothar shook his head and said, "I don't know. We haven't really fought each other since Shemaier entered the legendary realm. I'm sure you two also sensed the battle at Natava Castle not long ago. That time, he just resurrected an ancient god through the wedge-shaped clay tablet."

Behind Richard, the hooded little witch Martha couldn't help but ask, "How many ancient gods can he revive?"

Philip was also a little worried: "There are so many sleeping ancient gods in Egypt. If Shemaier can revive the ancient gods, doesn't that mean he has an entire pantheon fighting for him?"

Lothar shook his head and said, "It's not that bad. Although I don't know how many ancient gods Shemaier can revive, there must be a limit, otherwise he wouldn't have spent the energy to create such a six-winged dragon to deal with us. Legends are scary, but my advisory group and I have fought against legends before."

He added, "In fact, I have no intention of letting you and your advisors participate in the battle against Shemaier. I am confident that even if I cannot kill Shemaier and his dragon, I can still contain him and prevent him and his dragon from interfering with the front battlefield."

Everyone was startled when they heard Losa's confident tone.

The only one who can deal with a legend is a legend.

So during this period of time, this Grand Marshal has also entered the realm of legend?

Richard frowned and asked, "So what do you want us to do?"

"Shemaier is not the only spellcaster in the enemy. Previously, the Saracens relied on a high-level natural spellcaster to capture Natava Castle. I need you to help contain them. It would be best if we could reach an agreement with them so that neither side would interfere in the secular battle."

Philip nodded decisively, "I have no problem with that, but I wonder if the spellcasters hired by the Saracens will be so easy to talk to."

“I guess it’s unlikely.”

Richard rolled his eyes. "On the contrary, they would definitely prefer that our spellcasters target the ordinary soldiers on the other side, so they don't have to fight desperately."

They all have wizard consultants under them, so they are naturally very clear about the style of this group of people.

Some people are too lazy to even use spells when they go to the battlefield, and often just throw a few spells for show.

"Like this Shemaier - I even suspect that Saladin is trying to give up his chair for him to sit on, so he bribed him to work so hard."

The little witch Martha beside him said awkwardly: "We will try our best to entangle the opponent's spellcaster, but as you can see, we are outnumbered and I am afraid it will be difficult to complete your task."

Lothar nodded and said, "It's okay. Jeanna and I are enough to deal with Shemaier and his dragon. Most of the others will join the advisory group to fight against the enemy. Just do your best. I understand how much the spellcasters value their lives.

Your Majesties, next, I would like to discuss the division of Egyptian territory if we win this battle."

Philip and Richard looked at each other and both became serious.
