Chapter 1691 - 476: Demon King's Scheme (Part 2)
They longed to become stronger, strong enough to break free from the ancient shackles, to become dignified individuals like the Imperial people who could control their own destinies, rather than being puppets doomed to die young for a so-called "sacred duty."
Thus, merely toppling one King Ryan was insufficient to quell the "evil fire" in their hearts yearning for transformation.
Soon, when they conquer the secular king, they will realize that the Holy Word Book, tightly held by the Church Court, and its ultimate authority over interpretation is what truly binds their souls.
Moreover, that thing also binds the other vassal states of the Empire, as well as all colonies of the distant New Continent.
And as for myself, I can help them take fewer detours.
The New Testament is what they are looking for.
Generally speaking, this thing needs to be born through the watering of countless blood. Without my help, at least one or two "Prophets" would have to die.
Sak's face was full of confusion, feeling that he had spoken nonsense, completely unworthy of Lord Demon King's high praise.
However, Luo Yan did not explain further, because it was unnecessary; as a Messenger, he only needed to carry out the tasks assigned to him.
"I need you to do two things."
Upon hearing this, Sak immediately straightened his posture, solemn in demeanor.
"Please give your orders!"
Luo Yan cleared his throat and said,
"The first task is to meet the expectations of the Campbell people. After spending this time with them, you must have realized what they want. I need you to open a route from Thunder City to the north coast of Gana Continent, sharing the good things of the Gutaf Kingdom with them... just like we taught you those things step by step back then."
Directly exporting from Beifeng City to Thunder City was still too difficult, after all, getting the devout Campbell people to accept maze creatures was no easy task.
This is when re-exportation is necessary.
Pausing for a moment, Luo Yan continued,
"The second task is in the southwest of Thunder County, where lies a vast swamp inhabited by a group of Lizardmen. Strictly speaking, they also share the same bloodline as you, only the Dragon God did not take all Lizardmen away, and they are the ones left behind."
Lizardmen without Gutaf are like scattered sand, violently beaten by the transmigrators' firearms during the Isaac Dynasty, now curled up in the swamp at the southwestern corner of the Ten Thousand Ridges Mountain Range.
Back when the Dragon God created them, brought them here and then took them away, I now brought them back.
Though this time, he will not take them away again.
"You go to Edward and ask for a promise. Tell him you wish to establish a 'special district' in that swamp, aimed at helping those abandoned by the Dragon God to live normal lives, and to bring back the children who embrace civilization to the land of the Dragon God's descent... which is the birthplace of all Lizardmen."
Although some Players have already slipped into Thunder City, they are still just a minority of "Pseudo-man" Players.
Once this special district is established, Players other than Undead can openly walk in Thunder County.
All in the name of the Dragon God!
Taufu says who is a Lizardman, that person is a Lizardman, whether said or not is just his decision.
Actually, Undead are not impossible, only they have to wait.
Once Carian succeeds with her New Testament, even Devils will be able to walk openly under the sun.
Isn't Wheat Field Village already half successful?
Everything is only hard at the beginning.
As long as we start, everything will be easy!
Upon hearing Lord Demon King's plan, Sak's face showed evident doubt for the first time, hesitating for a moment before asking.
"Prince Edward... will he agree?"
Though he is not a chieftain, he understands the principle of "You can't allow others to sleep peacefully next to your bed."
Moreover, during his time in Thunder City, he could clearly feel the people here did not like his scales and tail.
They only liked the gold on him and the Prince Colin who possessed everything.
However, one sentence from Lord Demon King dispelled his worries.
"Of course he will, someone is willing to pay to solve his problems, why wouldn't he enjoy it?"
Luo Yan smiled and continued gently,
"And the most crucial point is that now he needs Strength more than anyone. The disputes among heretics could yield half by surrendering, but the strife among heretics is always a matter of life and death. Especially since the Campbell people are gradually realizing... the Church Court no longer trusts them."
"What was that saying again? When someone suspects there is a Devil behind you, you better really have a Devil behind you."
"This is their current situation."
...
Just as Luo Yan was instructing the Gutaf Kingdom's Messenger on the next step of the plan, Sarah in Twilight City reported new progress through the "Butterfly of All Things" he had stationed there.
Exactly as he expected, upon seeing the Holy Light of the Judicial Court, she finally abandoned the idea of compromising with the Judicial Court.
However, the things she needed to do right now were not many; at this stage, his game with the Church Court still lingered in the corners unreachable by the Holy Light.
His main focus would be on her brother Edward.
The Campbell Duchy is an important piece.
The bridgehead that once suppressed Hell Power will become the factory of transformation fires exported by the Demon King to the Old Continent...
