Starting from one person Jia Zhengliang

"The sacred tree... actually grew a face... and can even speak!"

Amidst Stephen White's excitement, a strange sense of incongruity arose.

How should I put it? When the miracle you have been longing for for a long time finally happens to you, it doesn’t seem so magical anymore.

Especially since this god has a human face and speaks human words, but these words have no content and are so watery!

In order to maintain his own status, Jia Zhengliang could only continue to say,

"Challenger who has come from afar, I can sense the conflict deep in your heart. You want to protect me, but you are powerless... right? My dear child!"

Jia Zhengliang, who ran out of words to write at the end, chose to take advantage of the old man.

I didn't expect that these few impromptu words could really scare Stephen.

"Yes, you are so dazzling in my heart. I want to protect you. I want to protect you together with the king. I cannot tolerate you falling into the hands of those greedy inferior creatures!

But I know I can't do it, and neither can they, and I can't accept being defeated by those inferior creatures again!

Please forgive me, noble sacred tree!"

As he spoke, Stephen White stretched out a hand and approached the sacred tree, but saw that the bark of the sacred tree rippled, twisted and deformed, and hid backwards.

"This is... the sacred tree is afraid, afraid of my annihilation spell?!"

This unusual phenomenon aroused Stephen's suspicion. With doubts about the sacred tree, he naturally turned his head to the king and the Nathan guards.

Facing Stephen's questioning gaze, Nathan's people some lowered their heads, some covered their faces, and some looked up at the sky.

Of course, the sacred tree is not afraid of the annihilation curse. According to Stephen's qualities, after destroying the sacred tree, he is even qualified to get the golden branch.

But the guy who possesses the sacred tree would be afraid of this destructive magic of unknown origin.

The strange expressions of Wang and Nathan Wei deepened Stephen's suspicion. In an instant, countless possibilities flashed through his mind, and the most ridiculous possibility came to his lips.

"This isn't the real sacred tree...someone's pretending to be one...you're kidding me!"

The sacred tree has attracted the attention of the whole world and is about to meet a tragic fate.

As an admirer who came from a distant country, Stephen planned to make a final contribution to the sacred tree with his own limited strength, even if it meant destroying it, rather than letting it fall into the hands of inferior creatures.

But at such a solemn and touching moment, you actually played a trick on me!

The impact was so great that Stephen forgot to be angry. Taking advantage of this time, a layer of bark on the sacred tree turned into a human shape like flowing water.

"It was too hasty. The setting wasn't prepared, the lines weren't prepared, and this joke was a complete failure!

But just now I adjusted myself to be in complete sync with the sacred tree, and you didn't see the flaw, did you? "

This question startled Stephen. Indeed, as a master of magic, no disguise magic could be flawless in front of him.

Just now he really thought that the sacred tree had grown a face, not that someone was disguised as a tree and playing a joke on him.

Such strength is enough to arouse his vigilance and curiosity.

"Who are you, Your Excellency?"

Having never tried to transform into a piece of wood through Fenghou Qimen, Jia Zhengliang replied while stretching his hands and feet:

"I'm kind of the same as you! I also admire the greatness of the sacred tree, and I also intend to destroy it, not wanting it to fall into Behemoth's hands... But not now!"

Unexpectedly, he found someone who shared the same ideals. Stephen continued, "It's too late if we don't take action now. Behemoth's men have already begun to land on the island..."

"What we want is for them to come to the island and destroy the sacred tree in front of all those who have evil intentions towards it. This will show the determination of the Nasen residents to rather die than live in disgrace!"

Stephen didn't understand Jia Zhengliang's passionate speech at all. He subconsciously thought that Jia Zhengliang was also a resident of the island and didn't know how terrifying Behemoth was.

“No, you can’t do it, and neither can you.

I claim to be the greatest genius in the dark arts since the founding of the society. My followers are willing to sacrifice everything for me. Our organization is feared by the entire wizarding world...

But in the end, I was defeated by those inferior creatures whom I had always regarded as ants...

If I fail, you will fail too. The best outcome is to end this with dignity before that happens!"

After that, Stephen White cast the wandless spell Annihilation Spell with both hands again, trying to destroy the sacred tree.

As long as he touches it, the entire sacred tree will be completely destroyed on the physical level.

At this moment, Jia Zhengliang suddenly grabbed his hands, and then a rope appeared from nowhere and automatically tied Stephen's hands together.

"That's amazing! You can cast magic without a wand..."

Seeing Stephen was about to say something, Jia Zhengliang reached out and touched his mouth, and found that it had become smooth, as if it had never been smooth before.

"We have to be on guard against you casting spells. If that's the case, can these magicians still perform their magic?"

Jia Zhengliang asked questions curiously, asking Stephen, but also seemed to be asking Garcia and Alfonso who were also on the magic side.

Thinking about how the two of them didn't seem to rely on their mouths and hands when they used their abilities, Jia Zhengliang looked helpless.

"To be on the safe side, let's just ask the soul directly!"

A purple light flashed on Jia Zhengliang's hand, ready to take out Stephen's soul.

However, after digging for a long time, the progress was only a little bit. It seems that the magic master's soul strength is indeed extraordinary.

At this time, Jia Zhengliang suddenly thought of something and began to use Fenghou Qimen to adjust his body. There was no visible change in his appearance, but he emitted a faint golden light, the same golden light as the sacred tree.

At the same time, the sacred tree also responded and began to glow, as if responding to Jia Zhengliang's actions.

"Aren't you here for the sacred tree? Aren't you willing to sacrifice everything for it? Then just give your soul to me, in the name of the sacred tree!"

Now in Stephen's consciousness, he seemed to have broken away from his original body and thrown himself into the embrace of the sacred tree.

In this way, his soul easily left his body and was taken into Jia Zhengliang's possession.

The Nasen Guards were incredulous. "Did he borrow the power of the sacred tree and then rob the sacred tree of its offerings?"

"How is that possible? He is neither a king nor a guard..."

Next, with the battle imminent, Jia Zhengliang didn't want Nathan to have so many doubts in his heart, so he began to explain:

"It's not as exaggerated as you think. The sacred tree is still a sacred tree and will not lend its power to others easily.

I simply imitated the power of the sacred tree to deceive Stephen. If he wavered for a moment and thought I was the sacred tree, I could easily steal his soul! "

Jia Zhengliang spoke very easily, and the guards only had a vague understanding of what he was saying and did not react much.

But Wang thought of a deeper level. Jia Zhengliang had previously imitated the qualities of sacrifice to deceive the sacred tree into accepting him, and now he could imitate the power of the sacred tree to deceive the believers into loyalty.

I can’t even imagine what he can achieve in the future!
