Don't call me evil god

Chapter 873 So, what is the price?

Sweat profusely!

Even in this cold winter day.

Harris Eugene also instantly became sweaty!

What does "happy cooperation" mean?!

What does "never see you again" mean?!

He was dumped by Annabell?!

This collaboration has lasted for decades.

They should have needed their own identity and power to achieve their intentions!
The two sides obviously cooperated so well!
Then I thought about it.

Harris suddenly realized the problem:

Although he could turn against the Church of the Supreme Truth at any time, he seemed to always have a grasp on the other party's weaknesses.

But his Achilles' heel is also in the opponent's hands!

Every collaboration with each other.

Once the news got out, his collusion with the cultists would be exposed.

He is the passive one!

Annabell and the Church of the Supreme Truth are hiding in the dark and can leave at any time and hide in some unknown corner of the world.

But Harris can't leave!
He is the well-known cardinal!

……

"Wait! Wait! Wait!"

Harris Eugene hesitated for a moment.

Then make up your mind completely.

Annabelle couldn't save him, so he had to save himself!
The situation is urgent.

He didn't have time to think about it.

He raised high the "divine weapon" in his hand - the round, golden sphere.

"Listen to me! Listen to me first!"

"The [Past Glory] barrier will be affected by the artifact. Whether you want to restore the barrier or suppress and close it, you need to use the ritual performed by the artifact!"

"All the information about the ceremony... is known only to me!"

"Get me out of here!"

"I will tell you the complete information of the ceremony!"

"otherwise……"

Harris gritted his teeth and made up his mind:

"I will immediately prolong the effect of the ritual, and at least make the [Past Glory] barrier disappear for more than a year!"

He learned from Annabelle about the rituals, how to use the artifacts, and other knowledge.

Even the Five Saints of Glory, whom he personally trained, did not know these things.

Including the scholars he had previously commissioned, Mendel and Wallace, they also only knew a small part of the information about the ritual.

Harris was sure about the use of the artifact.

Apart from those guys from the Church of the Supreme Truth, there is absolutely no way anyone would know!
"I can't die!"

"If you want me to die, you all have to go to hell with me!"

……

A threat made by Harris when he was at the end of his rope.

Miranda's response was a disdainful sneer.

"laugh!"

It's not just her.

All the people from the Church of Seeking Knowledge present had similar expressions on their faces.

Not only did they not take Harris' threat seriously, they also paid no attention to his "mutual destruction" declaration.

Even King Kenredin and Archmage Alcandas, who were present at the scene not far away, had calm expressions.

"Please."

"?"

Harris blinked nervously.

He thought he heard wrongly.

At this time, shouldn't the other party be intimidated by his threat and be forced to retreat a few steps, allowing him to escape on the condition of restoring the [Past Glory] barrier?

What does "Please go ahead" mean? !

Aren’t they afraid that the barrier will disappear, and a large number of monsters will rush into the kingdom, destroy the city, and massacre humans?
……

I witnessed with my own eyes the ugly behavior of the archbishop whom I once believed to be holy.

Miranda Warren's mentality became unusually calm at this time.

Slowly moving forward, the silver-armored Crusaders who had been loyally guarding Harris Eugene at the ceremony site silently made way.

They have proved their choice and position through their actions.

"Repeat your beliefs over and over again;"

"I have your interests at heart."

"Your Excellency the Archbishop."

"Do you still have the same piety in your heart as when you prayed for Navarre's blessing?"

"Do you still have even a trace of reverence for Him in your heart?"

Harris Eugene was silent.

The answer to this question is obvious.

He... has long been a complete nonbeliever.

The "truth of the world" and "supreme truth" that Annabelle had instilled in him made him realize that Navarre, the God of Light, was not the great true God described in scriptures and doctrines.

It was just an illusory image of a being that held divine authority.

No matter how many blasphemous acts you commit, no matter how many times you go against the other person's "will".

He doesn't need to worry about any backlash or punishment.

When he accepted this fact.

He could no longer have any thought of believing in the "God of Light".

Want to obtain the blessing of God?
As long as he used the blood-colored gem that Annabelle gave him, he could easily master the corresponding high-level divine arts that were considered "extremely rare."

Power at your fingertips!

What kind of belief, what kind of offering, what kind of practice.

That's all in vain!

How to maximize the benefits of strength is what Harris is most concerned about.

Later, he even had the bold idea of ​​taking over the divine power in the form of a mortal!

……

Miranda had an indescribable expression on her face.

It seems sad and regretful.

In the peripheral vision.

The task interface named [Restart Glory] on the illusion light screen is shining brightly.

She certainly wasn't worried about the threats Harris might make in a moment of desperation.

Because the omnipotent god of knowledge, Nowen, has handed over the so-called ritual process to them.

Just get the golden ball called "barrier core" in Harris's hand.

They also have a way to restore the [Past Glory] barrier through rituals.

But... before that.

They must pay their due price first.

“The power of losing limits is constantly amplified under the influence of desire.”

"Your Excellency the Archbishop."

"Infinitely expanding desires will eventually drag everything into a vortex of destruction."

"You tried to gain power beyond your limits, and to do so... you used things that are not within our control right now."

"So, what's the price?"

A hint of doubt flashed across Harris's eyes, but was replaced by enthusiasm:

"cost?"

"What a joke!"

"Power already exists in the world. I just want to get the share that belongs to me. That's what I deserve..."

The words have not yet fallen.

A hundred meters above everyone’s heads.

A faint purple crack was spreading quietly and rapidly;
The rift was running along the folds of the red clouds;
Like the evil god tearing the dome apart with his claws;

A sticky purple light gradually seeped out of the spider web-like patterns;
A terrifying aura that seemed familiar to the knowledge-seeking believers present was rapidly approaching from the other end of the rift.

Pete sighed deeply:
"That's the price."

Hold the staff tightly in your hand.

"My Lord has sent down a divine revelation!"

"Super-class monsters are coming!"

"Ready to fight!!!"
