Quick Wear: Random Cheats

Chapter 101: The Burned Earl Witch (13)

The area where the plague occurred was a sensitive area for both the nobility and the Holy See.

These are also places that need to be absolutely banned.

Some places will choose to impose a complete ban, allowing entry but not exit. They will not lift the ban until all the people infected with the plague have died and there is no longer a single person left alive who has the plague.

In other places, all those infected with the plague were burned to death, regardless of whether they were dead or alive. After a few days to ensure that no new people were infected with the plague, the ban was lifted.

Which specific measures to choose.

It all depends on how the local nobles negotiate with the Holy See!
Regardless, they were definitely concerned about the plague zone, though their primary concern was the potential for someone to escape and spread the plague. This concern, however, did allow them to immediately discover Harley and the others, who were treating those infected.

And the effect is quite extraordinary.

Even if the patient is vomiting blood and on the verge of death, he can be saved and will be alive and well without any rest.

What is the result?

The result was that the Vatican immediately began to make full-scale propaganda, saying that Ding Shui Harry and the others were all angels from the Kingdom of God, who came to earth under the orders of the God of Light.

Calling them witches is pure misunderstanding and slander.

Treating the plague is also the intention of the God of Light. This is all the grace of the God of Light. Ah, thank the God of Light!

It's really shameless.

Because they'd promoted the news diligently and widely enough, while certainly not as effectively as radio and television, it was still quite effective. Since there were no witches left to save the plague, Harley and the others, who had been treating plague patients, learned of the incident that day and were furious. They returned, feeling nauseous as if they'd eaten a fly, to complain to Ding Shui and ask if there was any way to fight back.

Ding Shui also felt quite disgusted after hearing this.

It is barely acceptable to have the credit taken away by them, but it is unacceptable for the credit to be taken away by the enemy, and then the enemy claims that they are their own people. Who wouldn’t feel disgusted after hearing such a thing!

"Could you please elaborate on how the Vatican promoted this?"

Ding Shui calmed down a little before asking.

And Harley continued to speak indignantly:

"Those priests said that what we performed wasn't witchcraft, but legitimate divine arts. They also said that we were messengers sent by the God of Light to investigate and save the people. They saved those witches because they weren't real witches, but ordinary, pitiful people who had been slandered as witches by their family, relatives, and friends.

The priests who were identified were also tempted and corrupted.

The Paladin was deceived and mistakenly believed that the messenger of God was a witch. He attacked the messenger of God and was punished by God and died tragically.

The Pope has successfully contacted the God of Light.

Only then did they know the truth and prayed to the God of Light for forgiveness. Now, the dead paladins will not fall into hell because of divine punishment, but will be pardoned and enter the Kingdom of God.

It also said that we should go and save those who were suffering from the plague.

It was also ordered by the God of Light.

Ahhhh! I’m so pissed off!!!”

If the excuses given by the Holy See were full of loopholes, then Harley might feel a little better, but now what the Holy See said had basically no logical loopholes and was generally tenable, which made her feel speechless and had the pain of making things easier for others.

She was almost going crazy at this moment.

I'm so angry, so angry that I don't even want to save anyone!!

"That's not the most infuriating thing. The most infuriating thing is that they prioritized spreading the word in those plague-stricken areas where we've already treated people. We went back to take a look, and those who were cured were actually thanking the God of Light for their blessings. Oh, I'm so angry, I just want to give the plague back to them.

My Lord Earl, what should we do?

Now I feel like I was slandered as a witch back then. I really have no way to defend myself and explain myself.

You are not the messenger of the God of Light.

We are not witches either! We are witches!"

The other witch next to her was also very angry. After complaining for a while, she confirmed their identities with Ding Shui again.

Ding Shui immediately gave a positive response:
"Of course, we are all witches and have nothing to do with that so-called God of Light. I kind of understand the Vatican's thinking. They're betting we won't come forward to defend ourselves, or even if we do, our propaganda methods won't be as good as theirs."

Moreover, they did not vilify us, and even acknowledged that we were God's messengers, which should be considered an alternative gesture of goodwill.

Now it depends on whether we accept it or not.

If we accept it, we can naturally transform from being a witch hated by everyone into a messenger of the Holy See of Light. Even if our status is not as high as that of the Pope, it can at least be comparable to that of a cardinal or even a cardinal.

A sure step to heaven.

So, what do you think now?"

Ding Shui's words not only deeply analyzed the Vatican's thoughts, but also wanted to test whether Harry and the others' mentality would change because of this.

"We? I don't want to admit it anyway!
I now think being a witch is pretty good. I'm just a witch, so there's no need to be their so-called messenger. It's them who are shameless. I just want to expose their true colors and make everyone realize they're liars who've been falsely delivering oracles for years.

My Lord Earl, I really can't think of a solution. If you have any ideas, please tell us.

We will do whatever you tell us to do!"

Harry spoke angrily for a moment, then thought of something and added, "Of course, if you think becoming a divine messenger is a good idea, our abilities are bestowed upon us by you, so even if I'm reluctant, I'm definitely willing to listen to you."

She didn't realize Ding Shui's tentative intention, and thought that Ding Shui was compromising and wanted to become the messenger of the Holy See of Light.

So I added this special explanation.

Other witches also said that they were persecuted by the priests or bishops of the Vatican. Now that they have become real witches, they are naturally more willing to admit their identity as witches rather than the so-called messengers of God.

It’s just that they really don’t know how to defend themselves.

So I am willing to listen to Ding Shui.

They did whatever Ding Shui told them to do.

"If that's the case... why don't we just attack the Temple of Light directly? After all, when it comes to propaganda, we're truly no match for the Vatican. We can't just go to every city and town and loudly declare in front of everyone that we're not divine messengers, but witches. That would be quite embarrassing.

Therefore, if we don't want to acknowledge our identity as divine messengers, then the best counterattack and rebuttal would be to directly attack the Temple of Light, overthrow the statue of the God of Light, or even kill the Pope and his men. I don't believe that if we do this, the Church and the people of the world will still think we are divine messengers!"

If they are not capable enough, or most witches covet the power of the Church, they will face the disgusting actions of the Church.

Maybe there's really nothing we can do!

But now Ding Shui and the others undoubtedly have the ability to directly attack the Vatican's headquarters, the Temple of Light. At the same time, Harley and the others have not been real witches for long, and they were persecuted by the Vatican at the stake not long ago.

And he didn't enjoy any benefits of power.

Hatred for the Vatican far outweighs anything else.

So when Ding Shui proposed this idea, none of Harry and the others thought it was inappropriate. Instead, they were all quite excited. Although the operation seemed a little too direct and hasty, as long as it worked, it was fine.

However, considering that there are still a dozen new witches who have not mastered witchcraft, Ding Shui and his friends decided to wait a while. After they have mastered the relevant witchcraft, they will take them to see the world and participate in this historical event.

Such a big thing will definitely go down in history.

There is a high probability that such a big thing will not happen again in the future. It would be a pity if we miss it.

So the matter was quickly settled.

After three days, we headed straight to the Temple of Light.

As for the Vatican, why didn't they try to contact Ding Shui and try to negotiate with them?

That’s because they can’t get in touch with me of course!!
As mentioned before, Ding Shui's method of judging whether a witch has appeared in a certain place and needs to be burned at the stake for purification is to rely on the trace of her spiritual power left behind. Her spiritual power is usually left in the place where the Vatican normally conducts witch purification, or even on the stake.

Otherwise, there are empty spaces in towns and villages.

As for the Vatican, it was definitely impossible for them to invite the witches down to the center of town in public to discuss matters or negotiate with them. To be relatively secretive, they specifically found an open and deserted place, set fire to the women, and waited for the witches to arrive.

In order to prevent accidents, we also follow the procedures.

Follow the normal process for purifying a witch.

But Ding Shui never placed her mental power in an empty and deserted place, and the mental power perception range in other places was not that wide, so she had no idea that someone was purifying witches there, so how could she notify Harry and the others to go to such a remote place to rescue people.

Unless Harley and the others happened to fly over that area when they were rescuing plague patients and saw it.

But the probability is too low!

So the result was naturally that they didn't talk to each other at all, and they didn't even meet face to face, so how could they discuss peace talks?

However, even so, the Vatican did not feel anxious at all and was still advancing their plan in an orderly manner, which was to publicize that Ding Shui and Harry were not witches, but messengers of the God of Light.

On the contrary, many kings felt very uncomfortable.

Because they didn't realize the Vatican's lies were pure nonsense, they thought the Vatican had reached some kind of secret cooperation agreement with those witches with special powers. The Vatican, without any miracles, was already a huge mountain weighing on their heads, and now with the help of witches who could perform miracles, how could they expect a good life in the future?
Originally, I thought that while the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman will benefit.

Now the snipe and the clam are cooperating, aren't they trying to kill themselves?
It can be said that during these days when the church was desperately promoting the policy and Ding Shui and the others had not responded at all, the kings of the major kingdoms were the ones feeling the most uncomfortable, and some dukes and princes also had complicated feelings.

They even felt a little regretful. If they had known this would happen, they would have lent some troops to the Holy See to intensify the conflict and eliminate any chance for peace talks.

What a miscalculation!!

Of course, their depression was destined not to last too long, because after the remaining witches all mastered their own witchcraft, Ding Shui took a total of 37 witches including her, using wind and water witchcraft, and flew on the clouds to the headquarters of the Holy See of Light, that is, the Temple of Light.

Clouds and mist belong to water, it just requires some skills.

But this is not difficult for Ding Shui.

At this time, most of the core members of the Holy See of Light had not left the Temple of Light. The Pope and the cardinals were all here, with only three cardinals absent. There were not many archbishops, but the archbishops were not considered the true core class of the Holy See of Light.

They are at most the backbone of the force, it doesn’t matter!
After arriving at the Temple of Light, Ding Shui and the others immediately removed the clouds and mist, revealing their figures. Of course, Ding Shui, the leader, didn't need to say anything, so Harley spoke up:
"You, the Church of Light, are so shameless! You worship a false god, slandering countless ordinary women as witches and even taking their lives. Now when we, the real witches, come forward, you dare not acknowledge us."

"And you still say we are messengers of the God of Light, bah!"

"Disgusting, filthy, and with such evil intentions!
We came here today to clearly tell you and everyone in the world that we admit that we are witches. As for the plague demon and the like, they are just your slander and have nothing to do with us witches.

Instead, it is your church that has been fooling the people.

Today we will destroy your temple and overthrow the statues. If he is real, let him kill us!"

When Harry was speaking, several witches nearby cooperated with her in using wind-attribute magic to spread her voice over a radius of dozens of kilometers. This was already the limit. If it was farther away, they would be powerless to do anything.

The publicity capabilities and means are limited.

This is the only way to do it.

After Harry finished speaking, she joined forces with Ding Shui and the other witches nearby to cast a spell. In an instant, countless fire elements gathered together and transformed into a flaming phoenix with a wingspan of over a hundred meters. It flew straight to the Temple of Light below, and wailing was instantly heard from inside the temple.

Then the wood element gathers and strengthens the fire.

The wind element also fuels the fire.

Soon, the entire Temple of Light turned into a sea of fire. No matter whether it was the Pope, the Archbishop of Judgment, the Archbishop of Judgment, or other cardinals and cardinals, as long as they were in the Temple of Light, they could not escape.

The flame temperature has reached over two thousand degrees.

Even stones can't bear it.

Even if it can't be burned, it can definitely be burned and collapsed.

In less than ten minutes, the entire Temple of Light completely collapsed, and the statue of Light was also destroyed. The survivors all looked at Ding Shui and the others in the sky in horror. Everything seemed to be going very smoothly.

But at this moment, a dazzling light suddenly burst out from under the statue that had completely turned into ruins.

"How dare you! Blasphemers deserve death!!!"

The next second, a beam of light suddenly appeared in the void. A shallow crack first appeared in the center of the beam, and then the crack gradually grew into a white portal.

It was as if the gate to the kingdom of God was opening.
