Hyperdimensional Player

Chapter 93 Awakening of Igrain!
hiss!
Exploded! ?
Triss, the Raven Queen, stared at Merlin's nearly blasted eyes. He suddenly felt extremely weak, his immense magical power dissipating, as if he had suffered some irreversible backlash. Merlin couldn't even be her opponent at this point; any wizard even slightly more powerful could easily defeat him.

obsolete.

It cannot be said that it is completely useless, but basically most of it is useless.

The others had no idea what had just happened. They felt a gust of wind, and soon after, Merlin let out a scream. But Triss, the Raven Queen, knew better. She knew that Merlin had used some kind of prophetic power on Duncan, and that he had seen something he shouldn't have, and the prophecy had backfired, destroying his magical power.

Triss, the Raven Queen, can also perform divination spells.

But as the saying goes, "Birds of a feather flock together." Duncan didn't quite believe what the prophecy spell saw, so she also slowly changed her mindset and didn't believe in anything the prophecy spell said.

The main theme is a husband singing and a wife accompanying him.

Especially after Duncan's miraculous rise, the Raven Queen Triss almost ignored the prophecy.

Beside Duncan, the druid priestess possessed by Thetis also had a shocked expression. That was Merlin, the most powerful legendary wizard in the British Isles. He had actually lost all his skills because of a prophecy spell. What on earth did he see?
Duncan's expression at this moment was also extremely solemn.

This Merlin.

Something!
The God's perspective in his dimensional space has the law of causality to deduce the future, but it cannot predict everything about himself. Only after the connection with the human body is cut off, the future deduced by the law of causality can predict what may happen in the future based on the replicated personality.

Merlin is different. His prophecy spell also takes Duncan, the biggest variable, into account.

Therefore, everything he just predicted and saw even exceeded the future settlement deduced by the law of causality. Duncan's causal deduction was still at the stage of "King of Britain", that is, the settlement after the trusteeship of human body No. 1, and the prophetic picture of the resonance of the dimensional space just now was equivalent to directly predicting what might happen in the future with Duncan himself as the center.

As Duncan is the biggest variable, Merlin can use prophecy spells to include him in future deductions.

It can only be said that a person’s reputation is like the shadow of a tree, and Merlin is quite extraordinary!
No wonder Triss, the Raven Queen, said he was the greatest prophecy wizard of this era.

"but."

"Why is it that the future he predicted has already seen me face to face with the Monotheism?"

Duncan had other plans during this period. Severus sent people to secretly join the church, intending to transform the entire structure of the British church, reform the doctrine of monotheism in the future, and transform it into a more moderate church in the future.

Merlin probably didn't know these things, so he predicted two endings for the future, one of which was that Duncan directly fought the "War in Heaven" with the Monotheism!
This guy is also an old-fashioned person. He never thought of "repairing the plank road in the open while secretly attacking Chencang".

Duncan had no intention of fighting Monotheism to the death. The churches in Britain were still operating well, and he did not persecute Christians. Jesus had only been on earth for a few hundred years, and there were so many holy relics left behind. Why would he resort to forceful tactics?
What's wrong with the church?
In the future, whoever has the loudest voice will have the final say in the church and the final right to interpret the doctrine!

Duncan is more supportive of polytheism, but he will not wipe out monotheism. The faith has been spread for so long, so what if you destroy the Church?
Do folk beliefs no longer exist?
The second prophecy of Augustus's future is that Duncan will undoubtedly wipe out the church, forcing the Witcher George to become the Dragon Slayer Saint George, who will fight him to the death with a large number of church relics, and also let the Raven Queen Triss die to protect him.

Duncan is not stupid!
Merlin is going crazy because of his own prophecy.

How could Duncan possibly force his enemies to the point of dying together with him!

If he came to power, the first thing he would do would be to divide the power of the church from within.

Why can't monotheism become polytheism?

We all worship God. You worship your doctrine and I worship mine. Although we worship the same God, our factions are completely different and are basically different church systems.

As for the future of the third prophecy, Duncan becomes one of the main gods of the Norse pantheon.

Nothing to say.

Merlin was being one-sided again. Duncan wasn't that interested in deification right now, and the Norse pantheon was a sinking ship. In terms of status after death, the status of immortal heroes wasn't much lower than that of gods, and was even higher than most ordinary gods.

Gods will die, faith will disappear, but the achievements of immortal heroes will be engraved in the long river of human history!

To be honest, those random gods in primitive religions are not as good as the immortal heroic spirit condensed by Duncan. At least it can be passed down to the end of human history.

A very simple question.

How many people still remember the gods of the American Indians or the main gods of African voodoo?
But most people know Attila, the Scourge of God.

The false reputation of gods sometimes seems powerful, but after the church is destroyed, the faith is cut off, and the sacrifices are discontinued, within one or two hundred years at most, the inferior gods will die out completely.

Merlin was powerful, but that was all.

However, for Duncan, Merlin's prophecy did give him a lot of inspiration. At least he foresaw what would happen if the relationship was completely broken.

Duncan's position is simple.

The first point is personal freedom. We should weaken the influence of slavery as much as possible and allow most people to have a certain degree of personal freedom.

The second point is freedom of belief. People can freely choose their own beliefs instead of being forced to believe in a certain god or faction. This directly forces the faith camp to involute and makes them actively adapt to this era.

In this case, if the church really won, its missionary work was very strong, and people were willing to believe in God, then Duncan would also be a supporter of the church.

But don't try to kill them all!
Duncan will not be polite to any religious faction that wants to kill them all through other means. He wants to be the one who makes the rules.

Freedom of belief is open to all.

Duncan respects the freedom of belief of every future citizen of the empire, as long as they do not worship any evil gods.

You can believe in any legitimate and righteous god you want.

"Someone is coming."

"Help Master Merlin go down and rest."

Duncan turned to look at the Raven Queen, Triss, and said in a deep voice, "Find a way to heal his injuries."

He wanted to kill Merlin now, just a glance would do. But Duncan didn't intend to kill him, because Merlin was still useful, and his reputation in Britain was very high. In the future, when he recruited other forces, Merlin could help him strengthen his momentum and avoid many unnecessary sacrifices.

Merlin has lived for more than a hundred years. At worst, he can be a teacher and maybe teach some great apprentices.

There is not much benefit in killing them now, it is a complete waste of talent.

All his magical skills have now exploded, and he can pose no threat to Duncan at all. If he wants to deal with him in the future, it will only take a word.

The Raven Queen, Triss, nodded slightly and said, "Yes."

But that's it.

A burst of hurried footsteps was heard, followed by the appearance of an unexpected figure, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the hall.

—Duchess Igraine.

This lady, known as the Rose of Britain for her beauty, entered the hall with a murderous look of rage and hatred, carrying a sword and placing it directly on Merlin's neck. Because Southampton had schools, and her three daughters were educated there, she had moved from her castle in Cornwall to settle there.

Everyone was a little stunned for a moment!
The Duchess Igraine, who had no star mark at all, held a sword to Merlin's neck. With just a slight swing of the sword, she could kill this legendary powerful wizard.

call.

But soon, Duchess Igraine took a deep breath. She woke up from her grief and anger, with a pitiful look on her face. She put away her sword, glanced hatefully at the miserable Merlin, then stared at Duncan sitting in the main seat, slowly knelt down and said, "Governor."

"It was he who bewitched me with his magic, and made King Uther look like my husband..."

“That’s why.”

"My husband, Duke Dintagir, will die suddenly!"

"Please, Governor, do me justice!"

"Return my innocence!"

amazing.

In an instant, Duncan and the Raven Queen Triss looked at her with admiration, and the Raven Queen quietly dispersed the spells she had prepared.

Although it is unknown how the Duchess Igraine knew the secrets of those events at that time, she was able to let go of her hatred, distinguish the priorities, and even kneel down to ask Duncan to uphold justice as the Governor of Britain.

This move is simply a stroke of genius!

All the humiliations of the past were washed away in one stroke, the infamy she bore would vanish, the family business in Cornwall would be revitalized, and her daughter would no longer have the slightest stain on her reputation.

Duncan is no longer the white guy he used to be.

He only needed to exchange a glance with Triss, the Raven Queen, before he realized that Igrain had handed them the knife, presenting them with a golden opportunity.

Merlin is going to be ruined!
King Uther will be ruined!

If Duchess Igraine had killed the seriously injured Merlin with a sword in impulse, then nothing would have happened. She might even have been punished by Duncan for being too reckless.

He simply doesn't take the Governor of the British province seriously!

But she was able to let go of her hatred, think calmly, spare Merlin's life, and kneel down to ask Duncan for justice. Then when the truth came out, she was just a poor woman persecuted by wizards, and Merlin and King Uther were the culprits who caused their marital breakup and killed Duke Dintagill.

In this way, Duncan took over the Duke of Dintagill's inheritance in full, which was legitimate and even justice was on his side.

King Uther must have been infamous!
Duchess Igraine even gave Duncan a perfect excuse to declare war on King Uther. As long as all this was confirmed, when King Uther was fighting on the front line of Duke Dintagill against the Saxons, he secretly used Merlin's witchcraft to shamefully change into someone else's appearance, sneaked into Duchess Igraine's bedroom, and did shameful things.

What great dragon head - Uther? What wise king of Camelot? What Knights of the Round Table?
It all became a joke.

He used Merlin's magic to stab his own people in the back.

The chivalry of the entire British Isles will betray King Uther, and he might even be deserted by his friends and relatives!

of course.

The most important thing about all this is that Merlin confessed his guilt. As long as he confessed his guilt, King Uther would never be able to turn things around.

Igraine is a bit powerful.

She was willing to blow herself up and die with King Merlin Uther, in order to make it all public, seek justice, and ensure that her daughter, the Duchess of Cornwall, had no stain on her reputation.

The moment Igrain knelt down in front of Duncan, the knife was already in front of Duncan.

Her real revenge also began.

take? Or not?

Duncan reached out without hesitation to help Igraine up, comfort the grief-stricken Duchess, and also took the knife she handed over.

This knife!

King Uther is doomed!
