Chapter 23 Welcome everyone

After a long rest period, the people finally recovered their strength. Without the disturbance of the undead, they could even calm down and have a good sleep. This feeling made everyone feel very comfortable, but even so, the crack left by Li Lin was not completely repaired. The Knight, who heard the "truth" from Li Lin, asked Duncan to confirm, but Duncan obviously did not answer the Knight's questions positively, which also made the atmosphere between them a little stiff.

After resting, everyone packed up their salutes and continued to walk forward. Li Lin held Anjie's hand and whispered to her about the history in front of her. The glory here, the glory here, and everything here. Of course, Duncan tried to interrupt him several times and scolded Li Lin for "no common sense" rumors. But he finally endured it. He had more important things to do instead of discussing some "cult propaganda" here.

"The gods have made their decisions here, and those that affect the world and the decisions of their believers. A large part of them will be left to the Arcane Sorcerers."

Speaking of this, Li Lin's voice was filled with a little pride.

"According to the rules, Gods cannot come directly to the main material plane. Because this continent has no way to bear the energy they have, but humans need the assistance of the gods, and the gods also need to draw power from human beliefs. Therefore, they come to find arcane mages and act as their spokespersons. Although arcane mages do not need to promote doctrine like priests and do not need to fight for faith like knights. However, their existence is still indispensable. They provide artifacts for gods and provide services for them, and things they cannot let others do. And for this, the gods will also reward them."

Looking at the beautifully decorated statues on both sides, Li Lin temporarily stopped telling, and Anjiela listened to Li Lin's narrative with interest. The others could not help but immerse themselves in Li Lin's tone that was as beautiful as singing epics, imagining the scene at that time. Although in their faith, except for the God of Justice, all gods are evil gods, and they fight against justice, then they are evil. However, Li Lin's description is difficult to make people feel malice, and even those words that originally sounded like blasphemy seemed to become particularly credible at this moment.

"Sister, is this really the case?"

Fina hesitated and asked her sister, but Mina said nothing. She just shook her head, her face full of doubt.

"I have no idea."

Although Mina did not believe Li Lin's words from the bottom of her heart, the tall building now gives people an extremely real taste.

"I think you should be familiar with this statue."

As he said that, Li Lin stopped in front of one of the statues, while everyone raised the torches and looked up, and his face changed slightly.

"This is the God of Justice..."

The paladins immediately lowered their heads and performed a sacred ritual towards the statue. The two priests also took out the holy badge and began to pray silently.

"Enough!!"

Duncan's angrily shout broke the silence, and he glared at Li Lin, his voice full of anger.

"This is the residence of evil! The wizards built these statues just to blaspheme the gods! Not to mention actually putting the great God of Justice with the statues of other evil gods! This is obviously an insult!!"

"In the period of the Magic Empire, there were no evil gods..."

"Mr. Li Lin! Please shut up."

Duncan took a step forward, obviously unwilling to hear Li Lin's words again.

"We invite you to serve us by relying on your knowledge, rather than listening to these unfounded rumors! If you slander our great gods, then you must pay the price for it!"

"I'm sorry, I'm too reckless."

Li Lin didn't say much, but quickly closed his mouth. However, the eyes of the rest of the people looking at Duncan changed a little, both familiar and unfamiliar with him.

"Silly lower animals."

Angela opened her eyes slightly and saw the changes in the team. She sneered in a low voice that no one could hear except Li Lin.

"Anger is the beginning of failure."

Through this corridor sculpting countless gods, everyone came to a wide hall, which was the best place in this building. There was almost no damage, and the white ground seemed to have never been blinded by dust, and even the beautiful patterns carved on the ground were still extremely exquisite. Li Lin pondered for a moment, then took out the paper in his arms, compared it, and then pointed to the stone tablet in the middle.

"It's here?"

Duncan asked, obviously he was still very dissatisfied with Li Lin’s words just now, so his tone was a bit rude.

“It’s here.”

Li Lin nodded, then took Anjie's hand and walked forward. The rest of the people were about to follow, but Duncan reached out to stop them. After confirming that there was no danger, he took a step forward and walked into the hall. His actions naturally made others feel dissatisfied. How could a knight of the God of Justice make such an evil move to let innocent people explore the way for him?

After passing the stone tablet, Li Lin walked to the high platform in front of him. He looked at the thirteen stone chairs lined up in front of him, and was extremely excited. Li Lin reached out and stroked one of the chairs. He closed his eyes, as if he was conscious of something, and seemed to be waiting for something...

"Mr. Li Lin, what should we do next?"

Looking at the ancient magic empire text on the stone tablet, Duncan spoke again, the goal he was about to achieve was near, and he seemed to have no patience.

But at this moment, the situation suddenly changed.

A dazzling magical text suddenly appeared on the ground that was originally empty. The strong wind swept up from the crowd, wrapping them inside. With a deafening roar, a lightning bolt appeared out of thin air and struck the ground beside Duncan. But then, the lightning bolt did not disappear. On the contrary, it spread like a spider web, holding everyone firmly inside.

"What happened?"

Faced with this sudden change, everyone was extremely surprised. The paladins drew out their long swords and stared at the surroundings in surprise.

"Maybe I should say, welcome everyone."

Li Lin's voice sounded again, and everyone looked in the sound and saw that he was sitting in the middle of the chair on the platform ahead. A confident and proud smile appeared on his face. Anjiela stood beside him, her bright red eyes opened at some point, just like looking at the little white mouse, looking at the people trapped in the lightning cage in front of him.

"Who are you?!"

Duncan shouted loudly, the divine flame of light had already enveloped him, ready to cast a fatal blow at any time.

"I am the owner of this place."

Li Lin waved it casually and made a welcome gesture.

"I used to be, and now I am... on behalf of the Arcane Wizard - although I am the only one left, I am still welcome to my country. Everyone."

"Accomplice of the evil god!"

Duncan shouted angrily and waved his sword, and slashed at the lightning cage in front of him. The sacred flames came into contact with the lightning and emitted an unparalleled powerful force. However, after the huge roar, everything was still the same. The lightning cage was not broken, but Duncan had already taken several steps back by this powerful recoil ability.

"Don't try to break free."

Li Lin looked at Duncan's actions calmly, as if he was watching a poor worm on the verge of death.

"Even if your God of Justice comes here in person, there is no way to break free from it. Because this was originally built to prevent divine power. I advise you to do not make any unnecessary struggles."

"………………………………Justice, justice will not surrender or fall down."

Duncan gritted his teeth and looked at Li Lin.

"No matter what your conspiracy is, even if you fight for your life, we will stop you!"

Facing Duncan's words, Li Lin shook his head gently.

"Although I can kill you with my own hands and destroy you. But I believe that there are people who want to do this more than I do now."

Behind the crowd, there were sounds of footsteps. The paladins turned around and looked in the direction they came. Soon, several figures appeared at the gate, and under the light of lightning, their appearance was clearly visible. However, after seeing these figures, even Li Lin was slightly stunned.

"Hiss-! The God of the Betrayer!!

The demon of desire suddenly spread its wings, and the snake-like eyes revealed endless hatred.

The angel floating beside her said nothing, but raised his spear and aimed at the people trapped in the cage. Only the elf barely suppressed his inner anger, did not raise his weapon immediately. Instead, he looked at Li Lin, who was sitting on the platform at this moment, took a step forward, bowed respectfully.

"Dear Arcane Sorcerer, we have finally found you."

"So too, I'm glad to see you guys again."

As he said that, Li Lin stood up and looked at the uninvited guests one by one. Although they came from different races and were dressed in different costumes, their eyes were filled with the brilliance of mysterious wisdom and power that mortals could not possess. Just thinking for a moment, Li Lin had already guessed the true identity of the people in front of him. This discovery surprised him, because Li Lin never thought that he would encounter such "luxury" treatment.

"I didn't expect that you would actually take action in person, even to come to welcome my return without hesitation. This really surprised me, Her Majesty the Elf Goddess."
