They also seem to be a type of energy.

So does the mass-energy equation apply to psychic power and magic?

The more Lin En thought about it, the more he felt that the road to legend seemed to be right in front of him!

There is only one key breakthrough missing! As for this breakthrough, it is naturally the easiest to find it from the captured Chief Judge Joshua! Thinking of this, Lin En looked at Vittorio and asked. "Have you ever tried to attack from the perspective of faith, Speaker Vittorio?"

For a fanatic, so-called torture and humiliation are child's play. As long as their beliefs are not shaken, everything they do will be in vain.

"Not yet." Vittorio shook his head.

Three days was too short, and he also had to find time to study the structure of Joshua's stairs, so he only tried five interrogation plans for the time being.

"Anyway, we can give it a try!" Lin En suggested. "I want to meet the chief judge in person."

Vittorio naturally had no objection.

He hid Joshua in a secret place not so that he could do research alone, but because he was worried that the news would leak out.

Once the Holy See learns that the Chief Judge has been captured by them and finds out where he is being held, they will certainly do everything they can to rescue this legendary priest! "By the way, I have another discovery that is related to you!" Vittorio took out a four-finger-thick book from his arms and placed it on the table. He looked at Lin En and said with a smile.

Lin En could tell at a glance that it was a Bible! However, the one Vittorio took out was different from the manuscripts carried by ordinary pastors and bishops. It looked very extraordinary. Ninety-nine percent of it was carried by the presiding judge Joshua! Before Lin En could ask, Vittorio opened the Bible.

"The Holy See has issued a bounty for you!"

Now it wasn't just Lin En, all the congressmen present came forward with great interest, and were immediately confused by the long string of zeros...

"One hundred million... Imperial gold coins?" After confirming several times that he was not mistaken, Lin En's face was full of astonishment.

You should know that the kingdom’s annual tax revenue is less than 10 million imperial gold coins.

Wow, so I am actually worth more than ten years of kingdom tax revenue! Lin En was immediately at a loss whether to laugh or cry. Before he knew it, he had become rich enough to rival a whole country!

And what is that messenger of doom? "In short, you'd better be careful. Such a high bounty will probably attract a lot of people's covetousness..." Vittorio reminded.

Although Lin En has now broken through to become a great wizard and his combat power is very strong, not many people can defeat him. However, assassination is not a frontal combat, and all kinds of despicable means are extremely annoying!

Even the strongest person can still fail! …

This wizard council lasted for three hours. In view of the fact that the Holy See had elected a new saint, the speakers suppressed the voices of the war faction after discussion and decided to temporarily suspend the attack on the empire and stabilize the internal situation first.

The results they achieved this time were already very great. Not only did they recover the entire kingdom, but they also captured a border territory of the empire!

The most important thing is that all the newly acquired territories have been "cleaned up". The local nobles have either been hanged or accepted the "amnesty". Apart from the need to obey the king's orders, they will not be subject to any constraints, which is very suitable for large-scale industrial development! However, for the top leaders of the parliament, these are just minor details. Lin En is very clear that a large nuclear explosion can only be used as a deterrent.

Only by breaking through and becoming a true legend can you hope to completely defeat that false god!

So after the meeting, Lynn followed Vittorio to the secret place where Joshua was imprisoned.

"This basement is very secret. I searched it out from the Duke's brain. No one else knows about it." Vittorio explained.

Another advantage of imprisoning him in the basement of the conference room is that even if a large number of guards are arranged, it will not arouse suspicion from others.

Their residence is not far from this place, so if any accident happens, they can rush there immediately!

Vittorio complained to Lin about the difficulty of the chief judge. After opening a heavy steel door, Lin saw Joshua who was imprisoned...

Unlike the last time they met, when he was arrogant and dignified, the Chief Judge now looked miserable, with his body bound by thick rune chains.

Every few seconds, these rune chains would light up, releasing strong lightning strikes, and Joshua's muscles would begin to tremble! This was a new method of punishment Vittorio had come up with. In addition to the severe pain, it could also keep a person's spirit in a state of high tension at all times.

Few normal people could endure it for three hours, let alone three days!

However, the presiding judge was different. He closed his eyes and was as still as a piece of wood. Even if the lightning strike was fierce, it was not enough to make him frown. He remained motionless as if he was dead.

"Come to think of it, this should be the second time we meet, right? Your Honor?" Lin En greeted casually.

He won’t reply to you… Vittorio was about to say this when he saw Joshua open his eyes. His eagle-like eyes stared at Lynn and he whispered in a dry and hoarse voice.

"Magic Star, Blasphemer...Lin En..."

Vittorio choked and didn't know what to say for a moment. He had tortured the other party for three days, but Joshua was pretending to be dead and didn't say a word.

This means that in the eyes of the other party, he, the legendary Speaker, is not as good as the great wizard Lin En.

Just thinking of that terrifying nuclear explosion, Vittorio smiled bitterly, as if it was really not as good as...

"Yes, it's me!" Lin En nodded and admitted it, then continued to ask, "Don't you want to know why you suddenly lost God's protection? And how did you lose this war?"

Joshua remained silent, and seemed to have turned back into the living dead again.

Lin En didn't mind it, but talked about how he used a secret strategy to play the Vatican's punitive army in the palm of his hand.

Joshua remained silent, as if he was not the one being fooled in Lynn's words.

"It's a pity that you didn't see that scene. Your saint, the incarnation of the false god, was forced to cast the Gate of Heaven under our siege. But this is exactly what I want. Even gods are still vulnerable to the new magic I developed - the Great Nuclear Explosion."

Lynn looked quite regretful, staring at Joshua, and said in a decisive tone.

"So, your master is dead. He died under my magic!"
