Chapter 475 From darkness to light
"In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it..."
Li wanted to teach Maria the magic of resurrection. This important thing floated out of Li's mouth and fell into Maria's ears.
Maria was so scared that she recited scriptures to relieve her tension. After she had barely calmed down, Maria opened her eyes and saw a half-smile on Li's face.
"If you really don't want to learn, I won't force you."
“…I, I want to learn, please teach me!”
After struggling for a long time, Maria finally submitted to Li's control.
The idea of using holy light to perform resurrection magic was so tempting that Maria couldn't refuse.
"Okay, I'll tell you about the part about resurrection magic in necromancy. When you practice, remember to change the affixes of dark power into mythological phrases."
Li was afraid that Maria didn't remember it clearly, so he snatched the holy book from her waist and wrote magic spells on it with blood.
Seeing that the Holy Scripture had no power to resist in Li's hands, Maria's nervous mood gradually calmed down.
Li handed the written spell to Maria and gave her final instructions.
"Saint, you must remember that only when you believe in your own strength from the bottom of your heart can you mobilize divine power to create miracles!"
After Li told the saint that miracles were the power of idealism, he opened the door and was about to leave.
Maria saw this and hurriedly called out to him.
"Li! Where are you going? I haven't learned this magic yet. Aren't you afraid of something going wrong?"
"…I have my own things to do. If you can learn it, that's your ability. If you can't learn it, it has nothing to do with me. You have to work hard, Saint Lady~"
Lee left just as suddenly as he arrived.
“…What the hell is this guy? He said he would call me Maria, the Saint, what’s going on!”
Li, who left the hospital, naturally couldn't hear Maria's mumbling.
Li Hui's hurry to leave had a lot to do with the resurrection ceremony just now.
When Li was hiding under the wooden board and cheating for Maria, he keenly felt a greedy gaze sweeping over him.
It's those nobles!
Li once again hid himself in the crowd, silently watching the movements of the nobles.
This time, Li quickly found what he had been looking for.
"Our Eye of Truth has been silent for too long. It is time to let the world know who holds the truth!"
At a secret ball of the nobility, a magician from the Eye of Truth broke the Eye of Truth's rule of keeping a low profile.
He encouraged other Eye of Truth mages to demonstrate their power to the world.
"We hid behind the scenes before to avoid trouble, but the research on the truth requires a lot of resources. Our magicians are so poor that they have to sell potions to civilians. If we keep a low profile, we will just die like maggots in a corner where no one pays attention!"
The person who was selling magic potions indiscriminately and disrupting public order has been found!
The Eye of Truth has always been active. In the old aristocratic system, they acted as aristocrats to earn resources and status for themselves.
Now, Maria's exemplary model has shown the magicians of the Eye of Truth better ways to make money.
"Those northerners have earned several years' worth of tax revenue from the kingdom simply by selling simple magic weapons! If the northerners can make that money, we can make it too!"
The war in the central part of the kingdom broke everything that existed in the past. All kinds of new things emerged like mushrooms after a rain, and the speed of change surprised even the magicians of the Eye of Truth.
"Not only can we amass wealth, we can also form an army! We can also organize an army, and no one can find fault with it!"
Wealth, power, fame, these things have a strong appeal to people. Even the magician of the Eye of Truth is not immune to them.
"But we can't just jump out and say we want to control the territory, right?"
"That's right, we also need an agent~"
After an important gathering, the Eye of Truth changed its previous low-key style and began to walk in the sunshine.
Several distinguished magicians walked into the office of Jacob, one of the most successful businessmen in the North.
"Oh! Dear Master Magician, my residence is really simple. Also, given my status, I should go to greet you in person. I'm so sorry!"
Suddenly, an unfamiliar magician came to Jacob. Even though Jacob was full of questions, he did not dare to neglect the other party.
Jacob knew very well how arrogant the classical mage's character was. If he didn't treat him well, Jacob's head would be planted in the ground.
The leading magician was wearing a black robe and holding an ancient wooden staff. He tapped Jacob's shoulder with the tip of the staff.
"I am very satisfied with your attitude and admire your talents, businessman Jacob!"
Jacob bent even lower when the magician called out his name.
The old wizard must have investigated Jacob's information. Jacob's mind raced as he tried desperately to figure out the other party's intentions.
On the surface, Jacob smiled and did not dare to make any moves.
"Jacob, we are the magicians of the Eye of Truth, the controllers of the truth of this continent, and the most noble magic users. It is your honor to work for us!"
"Yes! I'm honored!"
Jacob smiled on the surface, but was selling tickets in his heart.
When Li entrusted Jacob with a task, he knew to give him benefits, but the magician in front of him only used his status to pressure him.
Jacob didn't know what the Eye of Truth was, but he could tell with his toes that the old wizard in front of him must be a self-centered person!
"Jacob, I need you to provide us with a piece of land, a complete factory, and reliable mercenaries. Can you do it?"
The old wizard looked arrogant, as if it was an honor for Jacob that he could find him.
Jacob's eyes widened, he couldn't believe his ears.
"…I will provide it? Master Mage, do you want to take it directly from me?"
Jacob thought that the old wizard would have to pay some money, but it turned out that the other party was trying to rob him.
Jacob straightened up, wanting to get rid of these crazy magicians, but the next moment, a powerful impact knocked Jacob away. Jacob crashed sideways into the bookshelf behind him, and heavy books fell from the bookshelf, causing additional damage to Jacob.
Jacob curled up on the ground, his whole body in pain.
The old wizard stood in front of Jacob and poked Jacob's face with the base of his staff.
"Remember, it's your honor that I can ask you for it!"
"…Yes! I'll prepare everything you need as soon as possible."
In front of the powerful old wizard, Jacob finally chose to compromise.
But Jacob did not give in in his heart. With Beidi and Li backing him up, he had never suffered such a big loss before!
