After choosing to leave, they regretted it.

What the hell?

Is it the mercy and grace of kidnapping civilians from another world, giving them a half-crippling protection, and then throwing them into the battlefield?

Are you kidding me? I'm about to throw up.

Aize almost instinctively felt nauseous and quickly organized his words in his mind to prepare for a counterattack.

However, the other party was obviously not prepared to give him this opportunity.

"Lord Aize, you... um? Ahhh~ What is this? This is the oracle of the goddess again! She is watching us! She is with us!"

The little girl possessed by the Faceless Man suddenly revealed a lingering expression and knelt on the spot, her body arched in a state of almost ecstasy with tears streaming down her face.

It's not just her.

Almost all the members of the Pure White Saint Sect present encountered the same situation. They began to go crazy one after another in the confused and disgusted eyes of the local people.

There is no doubt that it was a large-scale telepathy carried out by the Faceless King.

It's clearly a useless dialogue ability, but it works wonders on this group of inexperienced charlatans. It's really incredible that a shapeshifter is almost becoming a dominant demon.

In such an unbearable scene, the little girl stood up again:

"Yes, yes, goddess, I understand. The succubus who bewitched Lord Aize must pay the price. They are there, behind that door. Don't worry, your loyal believers will definitely dig out these scum."

"Tsk——"

It seems that he is not planning to debate but to play hardball.

The situation suddenly became tense, and Aize also put his hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist.

Then--

"Aize, that's enough!"

Rosalyn, who had been dazed just now, suddenly stepped forward and intervened in the conversation.

"How much more shameful and depraved do you have to be before you give up?"

Chapter 129 Internal Unrest (2)

"You're the chosen hero of the Supreme God Realm! Not only did you leave the church for a silly reason and reject my invitation to return, but even after being caught hanging out with the demons, you're still denying everything! What the hell are you thinking, Aize?! Why did it become like this?! Can't you hear the people's faith and prayers? Are you so comfortable betraying their expectations?!"

The White Saint, Rosalyn Meredith, displayed unprecedented rage at this moment.

Not only did she scold Aize loudly without caring about her image, she also pounded the ground hard with the holy staff in her hand. The overflowing magic power was transmitted out, even turning the bricks and stones under her feet into powder.

This shocked the believers.

Lady Rosaline, who is compassionate, saves all living beings, and always smiles, also has this side to her?

Is there really someone in this world who has something wrong that can make her angry?

Damn.

Not just any damn thing.

Someone has to pay!

The believers' doubts about the whole incident were further dispelled, and they no longer cared about Aize's identity. Dozens or even hundreds of weapons were raised and pointed at him almost in an instant.

"Traitor! You traitor! Look how angry you've made Lady Rosalyn!?"

"What's with the undead about to start attacking the city? Bah! You're obviously looking for an excuse to get away, aren't you?!"

"We usually adore you so much! You damn heretic!"

……

……

Scolding rained down on Aize.

Aize didn't care about it. His eyes passed through the angry believers and Rosaline and were fixed on the little girl behind him.

"…Is this your plan?"

(Yes, that's my plan. What, has the legendary hero finally figured it out?)

The iconic inorganic voice sounded directly in his mind, officially announcing the presence of the Faceless King here.

"I understand it a little bit now."

Aize smiled bitterly and shrugged:

"Using disguised oracles and a network of beliefs to form a cycle, the impossible interference was gradually strengthened, ultimately leading to the current situation, correct?"

Judging from past events, although Rosaline has high authority within the faith network, she is also restricted by it because of her deep entanglement.

Whether it is behavior or emotion, even if there are short-term fluctuations and occasional loss of control, it will ultimately be impossible to defy the overall consciousness for a long time or excessively.

The Faceless King, as an alien being, is even more so in theory.

Even if a false "oracle" existed, it could not directly incite believers to take hostile actions against Aize - after all, the role Aize played in the faith was too important.

Forcing yourself to do this may lead to certain rejection reactions, or even cause self-doubt and a crisis of faith.

Hence the actions of the past week.

First, they used false oracles to give believers false hope, driving them to continue to engage in foolish and disgusting missionary activities, allowing them to accumulate resentment and shake their beliefs through repeated failures and setbacks.

Taking advantage of their discouragement and even despair, he used the oracle to seduce them, forcing them to further bind themselves to Rosaline through faith in order to escape reality.

In this way, while Rosaline's importance in the faith network increases, it can also inadvertently reduce Aize's proportion in it.

Then, there was the so-called "catching an adulterer" this time.

The little girl Jane, who was controlled by it, was the direct person who conveyed the oracle to Leah during the previous riots in the Holy City and triggered a major change in the church. Therefore, she has an extremely high status.

Using this identity, he directly confronted Aize, shook Aize's legitimacy from a practical level, and further increased the believers' distrust of Aize.

To this end, during the laning process, he even deliberately used a mature tone that was inconsistent with the character, in order to trigger associations among these believers:

Could this be the same as the previous riot in the Holy City, where the goddess is speaking through the little girl's mouth?

Previously, it was to deal with the corrupt church leaders, and this time it is aimed at the fallen heroes. If you think about it this way... there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it.

When these doubts began to spread, he used his fake oracle to add the final blow, completely confirming everything he had laid out before.

In this process, the change in the believers' ideas will also affect Rosaline through the faith network, causing Rosaline to become more angry than ever before.

The anger she displays will, in turn, further intensify the emotions of the believers.

An extremely bad vicious cycle is thus created.

Next, the Faceless King doesn't need to do anything else. Rosaline and her believers, who are exchanging all kinds of negative emotions through the faith network, will rush towards complete loss of control.

The result would most likely be that Aize would be torn into pieces on the spot.

(Haha, you actually guessed it? That's amazing! I admit I underestimated you, Brave Aize.)

The little girl in the field of vision showed a slightly surprised expression.

While everyone's attention was focused on Aize and no one was paying attention to him, he raised his hand and clapped gently a few times.

(I can understand why the Demon King values you so much. If you hadn't been careful and delayed a little longer, you might have been in trouble. But unfortunately, there are no ifs. You realized it too late~)

The little girl—the Faceless King—made a mocking face carelessly.

Before Aize could respond, his vision was blocked by the angry believers rushing over.

"What are you still talking about now? What are you still looking at? Look at me, look into my eyes, Aize! Are you really under some kind of evil spell?"

Rosalyn took the lead.

In his usually lifeless pupils, there was now real anger boiling.

"What?! Why aren't you talking?! Aren't you usually very talkative?! Why are you mute?! Why don't you tell everyone what's inside that door?!"

"Oh, so stupid..."

Aize covered his face and sighed.

This made the people who had already approached stunned for a moment:

"what did you just say!?"

"You're so stupid! You were so easily fooled by the demons. It seems that the faith you speak of as being above all else is just that."

"you--"

"How dare you! You damned heretic, how dare you speak to Lady Rosalyn like that!?"

The middle-level church leader next to him roared, and the sword at his waist was immediately unsheathed, pointing directly at Aize's nose.

The distance was so close that even the faint light emitted by the enchanted weapon when it was in operation was clearly visible, and its blade was trembling with the wrath of its wielder.

"I felt something was wrong before. How could Lady Rosalyn's instructions be wrong? Now I understand. Now I understand everything! That incident at the asylum was also your fault, you filthy traitor, right?!"

That incident caused Rosaline and the entire sect to suffer a lot. From the perspective of the believers, it can even be regarded as the beginning of the entire unfortunate journey of Lilbas.

In the past, they would not and dared not suspect Aize, and internal conflicts arose because of this and they almost split up.

Now, there is no need to worry about it, it must have been Aize who did it.

Of course, that incident was indeed a trap set by Aize, so it wasn't too unfair.

The problem is what comes next—

"Also! The missionary work has been going so poorly these past few days, and our brothers and sisters have been severely injured by heretics. This is also instigated by you, a bastard, right?"

"Many people in the sect have fallen ill, some are even seriously ill. Is it you who murdered them? How dare you do such a thing to the servants of the goddess!?"

"Those damned little heretics who came to the sect to cause trouble this morning were also sent by you, right? My clothes still stink!"

"The one from yesterday..."

"The incident the day before yesterday..."

"And the one from last time..."

It only takes a few minutes to transform from a hero into Aze 258. The closed-loop logic is so self-evident that it is so terrifying, and the belief network greatly accelerates this process.

It’s really sad when you think about it.

Rosalyn's fair skin turned red with anger, and the unfamiliar emotion almost made her lose her mind.

This further reduces the already limited self-control:

"Aize, you...that's enough, take him down for me!!"

At this moment, the accumulated emotions of the believers were completely ignited.

Accompanied by thunderous cheers and war cries, a group of people rushed up almost at the same time and instantly pinned down the defenseless Aize.

"Open that door! Let everyone in this city see what the object of their faith is actually doing!!"

"Yes!!! Lady Rosalyn is wise!"

The atmosphere had turned carnival-like, and the crowd, so large that it could have directly collapsed the dilapidated house, turned into a literal tide, rushing towards the building that Aize had just walked out of.

It seems that as long as that door is opened, everything will change.

This situation also made Aize, who was pinned to the ground, look panicked:

"Don't touch that door! The Immortal Dynasty's top brass are locked up inside. If you push it open casually, something terrible will happen!"

The loudest shouts were drowned out by the boiling crowd.

Only Rosalin heard it, and then she shook her head sadly:

"At this point, you still refuse to give up and keep lying? This isn't the shelter we had before! Those filthy succubi can't help you!"

"Tsk."

Time was urgent, and Aize was too lazy to waste time talking to her. Instead, he pushed the believer who was pressing down on his head, turned his face to the other side with all his strength, and shouted to the crowd:

"Don't stand here and watch! Go! Hurry up! Otherwise, something terrible will happen! If you get caught up in it, you'll die! Hurry!"

He raised his voice so high that it broke, and finally the residents of the city outside could hear what he said.

Because they are not influenced by the belief network and false oracles, they do not directly reverse their cognition like believers, but they also have doubts.

That's why everyone is waiting and watching.

Aize's speech caused a commotion and discussion among the crowd, but not many people left.
