Chapter 20: Richie's Will (2)(1/2)

On the road, Benedict II raised his hand to stop his subordinates from following, speeded up his horse and caught up with Yilin, and went hand in hand with Yilin. He asked softly: "What's wrong?"

"Don't you think Gray is very different today?"

"It's a little bit, have you discovered something?"

"Isn't that Gray?" Benedict II widened his eyes and his expression froze.

"Yes, that's not Gray, I'm so familiar with Gray." Elin turned her face and looked at Benedict II.

After lowering his voice, Benedict II asked, "Where has the real Gray gone?"

"I don't know either."

"Should we do something?" Benedict II's eyes flashed and he became nervous...

"Don't do anything."

"Um?"

"These undead legions are not fake. Only the Bone Holy Light Holy Church in this world can summon so many undead creatures. I think that some people pretend to be Gray, and the Lichs should know it. But for what purpose, I don't know. I have asked him... to ask this fake Gray to give me an answer. Let's wait and see."

As he said that, Yilin speeded up the horse.

Benedict II also quietly accelerated the horse speed.

...

"The Holy Light of the Bone is not solid, and I don't know how long this situation can last. The Lichs rely on their original enthusiasm. Without their fathers, this enthusiasm will fade. Maybe one day, they will feel bored. At that time, they will return to the underground world, leave us behind, and face a group of enemies we can't deal with. The same is true for humans. If they know that their father is gone, can they still maintain their current unity? If the Lichs all left and we face a battle that will surely defeat, will they still stand by us? I think no one can give me the answer now."

"There is only one way before me now. If I still want to avenge my father and bring comfort to my mother, then I must start a war immediately. Yes, immediately, otherwise I may not even have the chance to avenge. Not only that, there will be dangers in both me, my father, or everyone who has supported my father. I must solve everything before the worst happens!"

"But, what should we do? Can we do it?" Delia asked.

"I'm glad you used the word "we" instead of "you". Thank you for still standing beside me." Ritchie continued: "Nothing can't be done, just make up your mind and at any cost. The lichs already know that something happened to their father, and humans don't know it. Now, I must try to stabilize everyone and push the situation in the direction I hoped!"

The lords are all gone.

After leaving the hall, Ricci hurriedly walked down the circular staircase. Delia and Salina disappeared and followed quietly.

Along the way, Rich met several lichs, and each lich who saw him would be stunned for a moment. He either stood still in a daze, or followed quietly and observed from a distance.

Ritchie bowed silently and then hurriedly walked his own way.

Nowadays, there are more than four hundred lichs in this castle, and the entire lifeline of the Bone Holy Light Holy Church is here. Encountering by chance is an extremely normal thing. For the lord, he is "Grey", but for these Lich uncles and aunts, he is still Ricci.

After all, humans only have five senses, and lichs not only have five senses, but also can sense aura. In front of these lichs, it is impossible for him to disguise himself as Gray.

Soon, Ricci arrived at the gate of the castle basement, and there were two undead knights wearing Silver Moon Knights armor standing at the door.

Before Ritchie could knock on the door, the door had quietly opened.

Brutu, who had already sensed his arrival, stood inside and looked at him in confusion: "Why did you turn yourself into your father?"

There were already several lichs standing outside the door, all staring at Ricci.

Walking into the dark basement, Ritchie whispered: "Uncle Brutu, I have something to ask you. There have been abnormal actions inside the human race."

“Huh?”

Suddenly, Brutu and the few lichs standing outside the door were stunned.

Ritchie continued seriously, "We did not inform them of our military power this time, and they felt abnormal. You know, humans are very cunning creatures, they are different from our lichs. They always like to think about random things. Some people have even guessed that something happened to their father. This will be a huge blow to the cause of justice. Especially in terms of morale. Humans are one of the creatures most affected by morale."

The lichs were all staring at Ricci in a daze.

After a pause, Ricci looked around the lichs gathered around him and continued: "We are still facing the powerful Black Dragon Clan. If there is turmoil within us, those despicable black dragons will definitely take advantage of the situation. In this way, my father's efforts and our efforts over the long term will be wasted."

One of the lichs raised his hand.

"Do you have any problems?" Ritchie asked.

The lich said in confusion: "I don't understand very much. Why do humans have problems and our efforts will be wasted? Aren't we the main force in fighting against the black dragon? What does it have to do with humans? Even if they don't participate in the war, we can still defeat the black dragon. It's just a matter of time."

"No, things are not that simple." Ritchie said seriously: "The reason we can get to this day is due to the unity of the Bone Light Vatican. If we were not united, let alone the Bone Light Vatican, we could not even force the Angels Legion back when we were in Xianyu Port. Do you agree with this?"

"It seems like this." The lichs nodded half-believingly.

“But we are split now.”

“Is there any?”

"Remember last night? We couldn't even reach an agreement at last night's meeting. I believe you are all firm and supporters of justice."

"certainly."

"But not all of us firmly support justice and believe in the Holy Light. Many of us just enjoy the benefits of justice. If humans know that their father is no longer there, if humans are divided, if our actions are not praised, and all actions are negative feedback, then... how many of us will be shaken?"

All of a sudden, the lichs were stunned.

After a while, Brutu whispered: "You are right, I don't think Simon is as firm as me."

The lich present nodded in agreement.

"Yes, I think he is not as firm as you." Ritchie hurriedly said, "But we can't tell him this directly, otherwise he will be angry. At that time, the Bone Light Holy Church will split directly. It seems that there are many people like Simon among us. I believe that everyone present is the most firm, but I am not sure about the others. This is a crisis for us and we must solve it. In order to stabilize the human lords and avoid human divisions, which leads to the split of the Bone Light Holy Church, I decided to disguise myself as my father. As it turns out, this method is very effective."

The lichs present were stunned.

"Just just now, I discussed with the lords of the human race, and they hope that we will attack immediately. After all, the supplies consumed by the human legion are very terrible and they can no longer hold on. We need to cooperate with them, otherwise, even if we win the war, there will be no way to win the fruits of victory. Because no one takes over the territory we have captured. In that case, heaven and hell will have an opportunity."

The lichs have not yet recovered.

After a while, Brutu summed up in a low voice: "So, to prevent division, you pretended to be your father and deceived the human lord."

"Yes." Ritchie replied.

"And because we can achieve a true victory against the Black Dragon, we must launch an attack on the dragon clan at the request of mankind. Otherwise, we may not be able to master Gustav even if we win?"

"Yes." Rich nodded: "I know Uncle Brutu, you didn't like to launch an attack on the Black Dragon Clan immediately, but the situation is quite special. I would like to ask Uncle Brutu, you are a little wronged for the cause of justice. Now, the jeopardized just cause requires your support. Change your mind is not because you are weak, but for the cause of justice."

The lichs were silent and looked at each other.

Brutu lowered his head and thought.

Ritchie waited silently for Brutu's reply.

After a while, Brutu nodded heavily: "Of course, I am very willing to change my decisions for the cause of justice. I am the partner of justice."

"Thank you, Uncle Brutu. I thank you on behalf of all the righteous partners." Ritchie bowed and looked at the other lichs, Ritchie continued, "Now I have to convince Simon and the others. You know, many of them are not firm enough in the cause of justice, and it will be extremely difficult to convince. In addition, I hope that you will not stick to your opinions at the meeting. After all, as long as we are united, we will definitely win, and stubbornness will only divide us. The current Bone Light Holy Church can only rely on you. We must guard the results of our father's life."

"Of course, we are very happy to do this." Several lichs shrugged: "We are the partners of justice. Now the Bone Light Vatican can only rely on us. Could it be based on Simon and the others?"

After silently saluting, Ricci turned and left.

Before leaving, he heard several lichs whispering.

"Oh my God, I don't know that we are so dangerous now. I thought we could beat them anyway."

"There is no way, there are too many unstable people in our team, and I know several."

"So we should be more united."

...

Soon, Ritchie came to Simon.

“Uncle Brutu’s belief in justice is not firm.”

"Yes, I've seen it."

"He is easily exploited by heaven and hell. So, I hope Uncle Simon can stand firmly on the side of justice, and we must try to keep the results of our father's life."

"I'm very happy to be on the side of justice."

"So, I hope Uncle Simon will not argue with others anymore. We need a unified opinion. We clenched our five fingers and hit them, and it won't happen even if we didn't hit them. But if the fingers are not united and hit them, even if they hit them, they will have a fracture."

"Uh...you mean I want to listen to Brutu?"

"No, not. I mean it's time to pay for justice. If you don't agree, our career will be ruined."

"Well...well, I'd love to do it if my contribution is really that important."

"Thank you, Uncle Simon. I thank you for all the righteous people."

Immediately afterwards, Ritchie rushed to the next location.

...

"Uncle Grassley..."

...

"Aunt Erin..."

...

"Uncle William..."

...

"Uncle Green..."

...

"Uncle Babouti..."
