"Your Highness, if I say...some of your knowledge has been tampered with by Master Miriel, would you believe it?"
Renn's words were like detonating a depth charge, immediately causing an uproar in the parliament hall of Omar Palace.
Karen is the second prince of the Omar Empire. If he is really controlled by someone using some mental means, the meaning of this matter will be different.
These nobles who control Omar's top power are not stupid. Even their Machiavellian politicians immediately figured out the role that Glory City played in it.
They want to use the second prince Karen to covet the Omar imperial power!
It's scary to think about it.
If this is the case... Master Miriel has been in frequent contact with His Majesty in the name of treatment these days. Could he have also used the same method to secretly affect the succession of the imperial power
At this thought, the expressions of all the noble men present changed drastically, realizing how serious the matter was.
But the question comes back again, is this true
But if it's not true, how did Glory City gather so many followers of the evil god in just a few months
All of them looked very solemn, waiting for Ren's next words.
... ... .
"You're talking nonsense!"
Hearing these "slanderous" words, the second prince Karen shouted loudly, pointed at Ren unceremoniously and said, "You are just saying this now to clear yourself of the murder charge!"
His tone was very excited, with an insulted expression on his face. He shouted at the guards: "Guards, put this shameless murderer in jail!"
Renn didn't think he was acting, after all, the real subconscious mind had been tampered with, and the "participant" was unaware of it.
Just like in people's dreams, when absurd things happen, they feel "logical".
He glanced at the nobles present and said, "Everyone, I think you all know the impact of this matter."
After a pause, he pointed to the [Philosopher's Stone] again and explained: "My extraordinary ability allows me to sense any fluctuations in mental power. This Master Miriel's 'heirloom' was opened just now. In an instant, I felt that it was affecting my spirit. So, I immediately understood that he wanted to use this thing to tamper with some of my perceptions, and that's why he started killing people!"
"You're talking nonsense!"
Karen immediately argued: "Since the [Philosopher's Stone] can tamper with people's cognition as you said, then why didn't the extraordinary perception system notice it, and the palace mages didn't notice it. And you are just a third-level fighter. Home, but found it?"
Renn naturally knew that the explanation was unclear. This thing could hide the secret enshrinement in the palace, so it was naturally not something that extraordinary people could sense.
But the "intelligent brain" thing can't be said, and it can't be explained clearly.
He didn't explain much, and said calmly: "As for whether His Highness's knowledge has been tampered with, we can tell by sending a spiritual mage to hypnotize you. If it turns out that what I told is a lie, I will bear the consequences of my actions. ! ”
Every word is sonorous and has a sound when it falls to the ground.
After the mental hypnosis, Karen's subconscious will be exposed to everyone, and they will know when the time comes.
But this method originally didn't work.
Because nobles have immunity.
That is, even if they have committed any crime, no one is qualified to conduct mental interrogation on them.
What's more, he is still a prince.
Karen heard this "stupid" question and mocked: "Sir Ren, I don't know what your purpose is, but you have insulted my personality and the Spuglin royal family who think they are great!"
"..."
Renn raised his eyebrows but said nothing.
Except for Ymir and the qigong master Andrew, in his eyes, these Spurgeon royal family were no different from ordinary people.
Moreover, he was also sure that someone would let the second prince undergo hypnosis.
... ... .
On a normal day, if anyone suggested that a prince undergo mental interrogation, he would most likely be hanged for offending the nobility.
But right now, it's not his family that has the final say.
At this moment, Fourth Prince Mueller stood up and said loudly: "I think the matter is very important at this time... Since Mr. Lane is willing to bear the consequences of his actions, I think his proposal is feasible!"
As he spoke, there was a meaningful glint in his eyes.
As long as what Ren said is true, it will be a huge benefit to him.
Even if it's fake, it won't have any impact.
Anyway, it's not him who bears the consequences.
He has already received gossip that his father is very likely to pass the throne to the second prince Karen; and Queen Tess also secretly surrendered to the eighth prince Abel last night.
The current situation is very unfavorable to him.
But if what Ren said was true, everything would be different.
If Karen is confirmed to be controlled by Glory City, then he will completely lose the right to compete for the throne.
There was immediately one less competitor.
As soon as he said these words, the eighth prince Abel naturally thought of this aspect, and immediately stood up and said righteously: "Father! I also feel that this matter is of great importance. Although I believe in my second brother, for our sake Ma, we must find out!”
As soon as the two princes spoke, the ministers who supported them also spoke out. Even the neutral ministers and nobles clearly expressed their support.
"Your Majesty, we feel that this matter is of great importance, and we would like to ask Your Majesty to order a thorough investigation..."
... ... .
Hearing that his two sons and ministers had expressed their opinions, the old emperor felt inexplicably agitated.
Karen is the person he carefully selected as the most suitable person to inherit the throne. Why are these people unwilling to believe him
It's like your favorite thing, but it's criticized by others for being useless.
The old emperor's expression changed, with a hint of disgust on his face, as if some kind of situational reflex had been triggered.
"Hmph! I'm not dead yet!"
He looked at the ministers and shouted angrily: "Do you want to say that my subconscious has also been tampered with? Do you want to hypnotize me too?"
The old emperor's power was still there, and when he got angry, none of the ministers dared to look at him again.
Hearing this, Ren, Ymir and Metternich behind him all showed a strange expression.
They knew the contents of the edict in advance, and they originally guessed that the old emperor had been tampered with in some way.
Looking at it now, it is indeed the case.
After all, Ymir was his dearest sister, and the old emperor suppressed his anger. He looked at the corpse on the ground, shook his head, and said: "Ymir, you and the Lord of Rennes City should leave the palace first. The guards will inform you after the things here are investigated clearly."
Naturally, he planned to make peace with her.
Although Master Miriel died, he was still an outsider after all.
Under instinctive weighing, he chose to save face for Ymir and save Ren.
The old emperor had said so. Although the princes wanted to say something more, they were all stared back by those serious eyes.
Originally, Renn just left like this, and the matter was over.
After he returned and left the Omar Imperial Capital, no one could do anything to him.
The matter of murder was settled.
But!
If they leave like this and the issue of evil god belief is not recognized by everyone, the hidden dangers in the future will be huge.
"No! Your Majesty!"
Lane chose to refuse.
He insisted: "Although it is somewhat offensive, if the issue of evil god belief is not resolved, it will not only endanger the Oma Empire in the future, but even affect all humans in the entire Bingji Wasteland!"
After a pause, he stared at the old emperor firmly and said word by word: "Your Majesty, I think...some of your perceptions have indeed been tampered with by that Master Miriel!"
"you... !"
Anger suddenly appeared on the old emperor's face.
He loves his own sister, but that doesn't mean he will forgive this kid who offended his authority!
When Ren said this, everyone in the council hall changed their expressions.
This guy really dares to say that
But the strange thing is that except for a few people from the second prince's lineage, everyone else was silent and chose to wait and see what was going on.
At this time, Ymir also stood up and said: "My dear brother, you are not aware that your subconscious has been tampered with. But if you can let Karen do a 'mental interrogation' to prove the truth, you Why aren't you willing to agree?"
The old emperor looked at Ymir, and his expression suddenly showed struggle. He frowned and said, "Ymir, even you..."
In his heart, there seemed to be a conflict between the two most important perceptions.
If it were just Ren's one-sided statement, there would still be many people who were skeptical.
But now the eldest princess Ymir has come forward, and the nobles in the council hall have also realized that the matter may be true.
At this point, it’s not over yet.
Several more gray-haired old men walked in.
Everyone took a closer look and saw that they were several old princes from the Spuglin royal family, and several of them were even the elders of the old emperor.
Although these are old royal families with little real power in the court, they have a very powerful voice within the Spurgeon family.
The first person is none other than Andrew, the great qigong master.
Entering the parliament hall, when everyone was still wondering why these old people were alarmed, Andrew said directly: "Your Majesty, I also think what Ymir said is reasonable. This matter is related to the foundation of our Omar Empire and must be strictly enforced. check!"
When the elders of the Spurgeon family came out, even the old emperor looked ugly and could only agree.
... ... .
Not long after, a spiritual court minister walked into the parliament hall.
Although the second prince Karen was very reluctant, he sat on the chair obediently and waited for mental hypnosis.
At this moment, he still felt that he was innocent, and looked at Renn fiercely: "Humph! An interrogation is an interrogation. I want to see what else you, a murderer, can say!"
Ren didn't speak anymore, but always carefully watched everything around him.
The interrogation of spiritual power is not complicated, especially for a fifth-level worshiper to an extraordinary third-level Karen.
As soon as the silver pocket watch flashed, Karen fell into a state of exclaiming "sleepwalking".
The inquiry begins.
"Your Highness Karen...have you reached some agreement with Glory City and betrayed Omar?"
"I don't!"
"What is the purpose of Master Miriel?"
"I heard that Master Miriel has very powerful healing abilities. I wanted to treat my father, so I asked him to come to the palace to treat my father..."
"Has that Miriel ever expressed the idea of letting you inherit the throne..."
"No! He is a selfless, great, and kind man..."
"..."
Several questions were asked in succession, and Karen answered them all with no problem.
In full view of everyone, no one dared to play any tricks.
These questions are all asked on key points, which means that Karen is "innocent".
Now, there is also a mental interrogation.
Everyone on the sidelines began to feel a little shaken.
Is there really nothing wrong with Karen, and the so-called belief in evil gods is nothing like that
But is that Renn trying to achieve some kind of ulterior motive
Hearing this, the old emperor's tone became less polite and asked coldly: "Lord Rennes, is there anything else you want to say?"
Ren's expression remained normal, and his subconscious response could be trained. This was a mature technique in his previous life.
For example, even if he is hypnotized, he can use his "intelligent brain" to answer some pre-prepared answers for him on certain questions.
But... there is something special about the belief in gods in this world.
He was once from the Coleman faith.
That is, for devout believers, "gods cannot be insulted"!
Faced with the doubts from the supporters of the old emperor and the second prince, Ren didn’t explain much. He just said calmly to the second prince Karen: “God Jaliad is a sinful evil god who confuses people’s hearts. The God of Dirty Evil..."
"Jaliad" is the name of the three-eyed evil god. When he was the Black Wind Leader, Ren happened to hear King Kipling of Glory City mention the name of this god in a chant.
His words made everyone feel baffled.
However, it is different for a person.
That is the second prince Karen!
If he was still awake, he might not be easily fooled. In the hypnotic state at this moment, these words directly stimulated the most untouchable "bottom line" in his heart.
Just when everyone was wondering about the meaning of Ren's words, Karen suddenly shouted hysterically: "No, Lord Jaliad is the supreme and great god, and he is the only true god in the world!"
As soon as these crazy words came out, the huge parliament hall fell into silence.
Everyone's expressions were frozen there!
Those who supported the second prince turned pale with fright.
They understood that Karen was really controlled by people from Glory City using evil methods!
If Renn hadn't exposed the mystery of this matter today, they don't know how long they would have been kept secret.
Perhaps, their knowledge had been tampered with unknowingly and they believed in that evil god.
That’s the real “great terror.”
By that time, I am afraid that the entire Oma... no, all the human territories in the entire Ice Ridge Wasteland will become the minions of the evil god.
Thinking of this, everyone was afraid.
At this moment, everyone looked at Karen as if they were looking at the plague and avoided it.
... ... .
The old emperor looked extremely ugly, and his face that was rosy just now suddenly turned livid.
The fierce conflict between the two cognitions caused his energy to rush into his brain and his vision went dark.
Then, he closed his eyes instantly.
"It's not good, Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."
When the chamberlain looked at it, the old emperor was already dead.
But now is not the time to pay attention to this, because at this time, the second prince Karen did not wake up from hypnosis, but triggered some kind of restriction because of the words he just said.
At this time, a layer of thorny light appeared all over his body that made people unable to open their eyes.
A strange and powerful will has arrived!
Ren felt this familiar feeling and blurted out: "No, it's the will of the evil god!"
This feeling is exactly the same as the feeling when the three-eyed evil god came in the Black Wind Territory!
