Chapter 471 Quickly Use Divine Magic
Li regretted his words immediately after he said that there was a price to be paid.
Back then, Li was a kind and ambitious young man. What he hated most were those who did not care about other people's lives.
But now, Li said the same thing to the saint.
Does this prove that Li has lost himself in power and authority and has lost his kind heart?
"Lee! It's not too late to turn back now. I know you are a good person. You can stop this meaningless war..."
"Stop it? Why should we stop it? Even if I didn't start the war, these people would still fight to the death over other issues, right?!"
Lee may not be the same as before, but he has no regrets about what he has done.
Compared with the important goals, the current sacrifices are just minor problems.
"You call taking someone's life a small matter?"
Maria knew that she could not stop the war with her own will, but she had to do something, even if it was just to save one life.
Li was a little confused. Maria had obviously grown a lot, but why was she still so stubborn?
“…Forget it. Since you think the dead are bad, just revive them.”
Li snatched the holy book from Maria's waist and slapped the cover of the book hard with his hands.
Under Maria's shocked gaze, Shengdian was completely subdued by Li.
"Damn book! Get some holy light and have a look."
The life of the Holy Scripture was in Li's hands, and it released a holy light helplessly.
At Li's urging, the light of the holy book spread out, covering those who died in the war.
Li secretly used necromancy to inject magic power into the corpses. Under the confused gaze of the people around him, the soldiers who died in the war stood up, shaking their heads.
"Cheat, scam corpse!"
"Lady Saint, please use your magic..."
Other corpse collectors thought that the corpse was contaminated by evil aura and turned into a dangerous zombie.
As a result, the resurrected soldiers were covered in golden holy light and did not attack the people around them.
"I'm dead, right? It turns out there's no difference between heaven and earth."
Several corpses were resurrected by Lee, and they looked at each other and soon realized that they were still in the world.
The soldier who was resurrected was confused, and the corpse collector who saw the miracle was also confused.
Even Saint Mary's head was buzzing.
"Weiser Lee! What are you doing using necromancy in public..."
Maria was about to lose her temper when Li covered her mouth.
"Everyone, come and see! The Saint Lady is merciful. She communicated with the heavens and told the goddess about the sufferings of the war. The goddess performed a miracle and resurrected the dead soldiers!"
Others were not aware of the communication between Maria and Li, but when they heard Li say that the saint had performed a miracle and resurrected the dead soldiers, they immediately knelt down and prayed to the goddess.
"Praise the great goddess, praise the selfless Saint!"
The Saint actually mastered the magic of resurrecting the dead, and everyone around her cast eager glances at Maria.
"Lady Saint, please give us a new life. We are willing to pledge our loyalty with our lives!"
The resurrected soldiers, whether they were previously led by Archduke von or the bodies left behind by Simon, all gathered around Maria.
Maria looked at the person kneeling in front of her, and her whole body went numb.
"It's not me who resurrected you..."
Maria wanted to explain, but she found that Li, who was just beside her to create a good atmosphere, had slipped away at some point.
Maria turned around several times but couldn't find Li. Maria had a lot of things to say, but she had no one to talk to.
"Damn it, Li, you made a mess and threw it to me, what do you think of that!"
Just when Maria was at a loss, the holy book on her waist glowed again.
The soft holy light was like the whisper of a goddess. Everyone fell silent and listened to the goddess' oracle.
Maria also calmed down and wanted to see what instructions the goddess had, but after listening for a long time, she didn't hear anything specific.
Even the saint Maria didn't hear the oracle clearly, and it was even more impossible for the soldiers around her to hear it. However, they still made worshipful expressions as if they were listening to the heavenly sound, and kept offering their faith to the goddess.
The power of life resurrection is enough to exchange for a person's loyalty.
The holy light released by the scripture slowly went out, and everything returned to normal.
"Lady Saint, from today on, we are your soldiers and your followers!"
While Maria was still confused, the resurrected soldiers had already made the decision to pledge their allegiance.
Maria's eyes widened, not knowing why they pledged allegiance to her.
"I am only a nun of the temple. I do not need your allegiance!"
"You don't have to, Lady Saint, but it is our wish to be loyal to you!"
The main characteristic of the resurrected soldier is that he refuses to listen to advice.
No matter whether you, the Saint, need it or not, we will pledge our loyalty to you anyway.
If you pledge allegiance to a general or a noble, you will die on the battlefield. But if you pledge allegiance to a saint who can perform miracles, it is a blessing that no one can even ask for.
No matter how Maria explained and evaded, the resurrected person always stayed by her side.
Maria was so tired that she followed Li's example and slapped the scripture hard.
"Damn it, you lousy book! You performed miracles recklessly. Have you ever considered my feelings?"
Shengdian asked Maria to move aside, and when he saw that the soldiers could not hear their conversation, Shengdian responded.
"Saint, you are the goddess's spokesperson, and it is your duty to collect faith."
The Holy Scripture made a cold, mechanical sound, and Maria went mad upon hearing it.
"Saint? You are the one who gave me the title of Saint, but I don't want her. Damn book, remember to call me by my name, Maria!"
The Holy Scriptures did not expect that Maria would be so tough. This shows that Maria already has her own code of conduct and will no longer be swayed by the empty beliefs of the church.
"…Maria, even if you don't like it, you are still the representative of the Holy Church. Don't you want to prevent unnecessary sacrifices? Accepting those who worship you will be good for you."
"But doing so is cheating. I have no ability to revive these people! Resurrection magic is Vizar Lee's ability! Also, using the power of magic to gather faith, is the goddess such a superficial thing!"
Faced with Maria's aggressiveness, the Holy Scripture could not make any rebuttal.
Because this is the fact, the so-called goddess loves the world, the so-called light and justice will dispel evil, most of them are like poems, artificially sung beautiful words.
"…Maria, you now understand that the goddess is not as great as the legend says. So, are you going to abandon the goddess and create chaos like Li?"
The voice from the Holy Scripture changed its tone slightly, and Maria keenly realized that the person who asked the question was not the Holy Scripture itself, but someone hiding behind it.
Has the real goddess come to communicate with me?
Maria sneered in her heart, how ridiculous it was that a goddess didn't even dare to show her face.
No matter how much people laugh at her, Maria will not create war and chaos like Li did.
"Even if there is no goddess, even if there is no temple, I will still walk on the path of light and justice! This will not change because of anything!"
