Wizards: Starting as a Potions Master!

Chapter 271 Archbishop Mosilini

Yesterday's massive explosion brought everyone in Stormwind Keep together at the Kaldorei Cathedral.

The residents of Stormwind Keep were all talking about what was going on and why strange things were happening every day lately.

First, churches were completely massacred, then churches were subjected to massive explosions.

The Church of Stormwind has dispatched a special committee to begin an investigation within Stormwind Keep.

They believe that a hostile force is operating freely within Stormwind Keep and causing extensive damage.

Meanwhile, the following day, Su Nan discovered that the Storm Royal Family had issued four more outrageous decrees.

Su Nan looked at the four decrees on the desk in the study—

First, the legalization of extramarital affairs. The Storm Royal Family recognizes legal extramarital affairs and believes that the children of extramarital affairs—illegitimate children—also have inheritance rights.

Second, legalize the sex industry. The Storm Royal Family now believes that if the sex industry didn't exist, many women would suffer harassment; only by legalizing the sex industry can normal women be protected.

Third, if an area has been occupied for more than a year, it becomes the property of another. The Storm Royal Family believes that, in order to balance the distribution of wealth, if someone has occupied another person's house, land, or shop for more than a year, it means that the occupied person no longer needs this wealth, and this wealth can legally belong to the occupant.

Fourth, personal usury is legal.

King Bari believed that these four decrees could help the people of Storm Kingdom become better, so he posted them throughout the streets and alleys, and dispatched soldiers and officials to maintain their presence.

This means that, starting today, at least in Stormwind Keep, various gray-market industries will be legalized.

Originally, whether it was loan sharking, the sex industry, or lovers, at least on the surface, these were all things that the Storm Church prohibited and did not allow.

Su Nan stopped paying attention to the Storm King's actions and instead focused on the books being collected.

The four strongholds he had previously destroyed were all important nodes of the four ritual "gates". Su Nan had checked those nodes last night and discovered that the sorcerers of the High Order had actually begun to try to reconstruct these four nodes in the middle of the night.

However, Su Nan immediately used the Niche Reversal Charm to summon the five Queens of the Arcane Swarm, allowing them to reproduce and propagate the swarm within Stormwind Keep's underground water system.

At the same time, have the Arcane Swarm branch focus on these four nodes in Stormwind Keep.

Once a warlock is detected entering one of the four nodes, an immediate attack will commence.

With the Arcane Swarm branch acting as a distraction, these warlocks found it much harder to set up new energy organs for the energy world at the nodes.

In the afternoon, Su Nan heard a great commotion outside the villa. He went down the stairs and out of the villa, only to find a large number of royal soldiers surrounding the estate he had rented.

Su Nan looked at Warwick in confusion, and Warwick said to Su Nan, "Young master, these royal soldiers say they are here to arrest you."

Su Nan looked at the leader of the royal soldiers, a man with a pointed face and a mean expression, who was clearly targeting him.

The royal commander produced the royal arrest warrant and said, "The king has issued a decree declaring you a wizard. You have been stripped of your title and are no longer protected by noble laws, so please come with us. Or will you resist?"

Su Nan raised an eyebrow, realizing the situation.

The one currently on the throne discovered that the restrictions imposed on him had no effect whatsoever.

In addition, he had recently destroyed four of their strongholds, so was he now showing his true colors and trying to forcefully drive him away?

Su Nan laughed.

The new commander of the royal soldiers looked at Su Nan strangely. "What are you laughing at? What's so funny?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the voices of Storm Church soldiers behind him. He turned around in surprise and saw Archbishop Mosilini under the protection of a large number of Church Grand Knights, and even the Church's legendary knight, Marco Morric.

At the same time, Mosilini was also from the Platinum Commercial Republic and was a member of its commercial aristocracy.

The Archbishop of the Church of Storms means that he has received the full attention of the God of Storms. He may not have any special power, but wherever he goes, the God of Storms will be watching.

This made the sorcerer, who was disguised as a royal soldier commander, feel inexplicably guilty.

Mosilini looked at the royal decree in his hand and sighed. "Really. I shouldn't have let Barry become king."

Those present fell silent upon hearing this.

However, the Archbishop of the Storm Church could indeed say such a thing. After all, even the Storm King had to receive the crown from him and be baptized by the Archbishop of Storm before he could be crowned.

At the same time, it also means that the God of Storms has acknowledged this divine being as king.

When the God of Storms chooses a new family to become the royal family, they often awaken the divine abilities of the divine bloodline. At the same time, the divine abilities of the old royal family will not disappear, but will only weaken with the passage of time, generation after generation.

Looking at the royal decree in his hand, Mosilini said to the soldier commander, "When the royal family determines that someone is a wizard, it must be approved by the ecclesiastical court. Therefore, this royal decree is at least procedurally incorrect, and may even be suspected of usurping the power of the ecclesiastical court."

"Furthermore, the royal family does not actually have the right to strip other noble titles. The title of Storm Lord can only be stripped by God. And the person responsible for communicating with God... is the Church, and that is me."

"I'm sorry, I did not receive such an order from the God of Storms."

Mosilini said, "Therefore, I do not accept Count Sunan Peter's conclusion as the result of the wizard."

Faced with the reprimand from the Archbishop of the Church of Storms, the royal soldiers were at a loss.

After all, if even the archbishop doesn't think Sunan is a wizard, then who would?

Archbishop Mosilini said to Sunan, "Bishop Borgia wrote me a letter asking me to stop this farce. Moreover, I also feel that King Barry has indeed gone too far."

"Count Peter, the kingdom is in peril and needs nobles of your stature to help us protect the Storm God and his great, sacred work on this land."

Sunan nodded to Archbishop Mosilini. "That's how it should be."

He had long anticipated that the warlocks, having suffered too many losses, would attempt to use royal authority to drive him out of Stormwind Keep.

Therefore, Su Nan made arrangements in advance, using the bishop he supported to leverage some exchanges of benefits to get Archbishop Mosilini to help him.

Ask Mosilini to help him stay in Stormwind Keep.

Of course, during this process, Mosilini himself was clearly somewhat frightened. The royal family had been behaving very strangely lately, and there had been multiple instances of churches being vandalized at night within Stormwind Keep.

Therefore, Mosilini is trying to maintain this once normal world.

Unfortunately, all his efforts may be in vain.

The royal soldiers commander could only turn back with a dark expression on his face.

Su Nan looked at him with amusement, and using the wolf pack effect, gave an order to a mutated werewolf: when the royal soldier commander walked to a secluded corner, kill the one-star warlock royal soldier commander immediately.

Mosilini turned and sighed at Sunan.

He was an old man, with a face that bore the cunning of a businessman, but more so the power and authority of an archbishop.

Su Nan realized that this old man possessed the power of a great knight.

Moreover, he possessed a strange energy, and Su Nan had no idea how powerful this old man would be in battle.

But it certainly doesn't seem that simple.

Otherwise, the blind monk would have assassinated him long ago, and he certainly wouldn't have survived to this day.

Su Nan looked at the legendary Storm Knight beside Mosilini.

As expected, the church does indeed have legendary knights, and there is likely more than one. Now that they are in danger, they have finally brought them out.

Moreover, the ranks of the church knights are constantly increasing, as if the God of Storms is accelerating the projection of his power.

However, Su Nan suddenly realized something: if the way of the knight is the power of the gods, then the power of the Storm Knight comes from the God of Storms.

If the power of the Storm God is not infinite as He proclaims, but rather finite, then does that mean—

There is a limit to the number of Storm Riders.

Su Nan immediately thought of a question: if the number of Storm Knights really is limited, but if a large number of Storm Knights die, could the extra slots be concentrated on one person, making that person a legendary Storm Knight who can correspond to a formal wizard?

Although legendary knights are basically destined to be slaughtered when facing formal wizards.

Su Nan suddenly understood why the Storm God was ignoring the current situation. Perhaps it was because the Storm God was waiting for the moment when the power would be concentrated on a few knights.
