People all have habitual thinking, even saints who are said to be able to abandon worldly worries and serve the public wholeheartedly are no exception.
Of course, it turns out that the so-called saint cannot throw away all the troubles in the world. This is just Gristea's wishful thinking. The fall of Vessey and Devos are clear examples.
Unlike Maldraxxus, which is full of martial virtue and often changes its barons, the atmosphere of Ascension Bastion is more peaceful and the personnel changes are not so frequent.
Devos has been serving as Sonia's loyal hand for tens of thousands of years. DeVos has long been accustomed to her being her assistant and has never had any doubts about Sonia.
But it was this habitual thinking of over-trust that blinded DeVos's cognition, allowing her to be manipulated by the second and fifth boys.
Sonia's spiritual suggestion to DeVos was not just a simple spell, but also mixed with some psychological principles mentioned by Danmu.
Under the long-term influence of the two-pronged mental suggestion, DeVos was completely unable to have any doubts about Sonya.
Stellagosa can skillfully use various types of spells, but as the saying goes, there are specializations in magic. In terms of mental spells, Little Star's attainments are not as good as Onyxia, who specializes in this art.
DeVos expressed doubts about her claims that she was raped by Sonia Pua, who insisted that her will was free and had not been distorted by anyone.
Her words were unfounded, and after obtaining Devos's permission, Onyxia used the Blade of the Dark Empire to control Sonia's will.
As the glazed-eyed Sonia spoke out about the rebellious acts she had done over the years, DeVos's expression changed from disbelief at first, to anger later, and finally to self-blame and regret.
In order to avoid being noticed by DeVos, the mental spells Laisonia cast on DeVos were not very effective. Rather than twisting her will, it was more about cooperating with psychology to induce her behavior.
DeVos thought that all the decisions she had made in the past were of her own volition, but this was not the case.
Come to Sonia...or the Warden, who is the driving force behind many of her decisions, including falling to heaven.
When DeVos realized that there was something wrong with his thinking model, the weak mental suggestion that Sonia had exerted naturally failed.
After getting rid of the induction of the spell, DeVos began to reflect on what he had thought and done over the years.
Then she sadly discovered the fact that Sarlayan's speculation was correct. Her will had been hijacked by others many years ago, and many decisions were not based on DeVos's original intentions.
This discovery shocked DeVos, but it also allowed her to completely get rid of the PUA that came to Sonia, and she could look at things with a clearer mind.
The poison called Soul-Eating Poison is one of the most proud masterpieces of the alchemist Stradama. Lysonia was already dying after being poisoned by the Soul-Eating Poison, and to make matters worse, Onyxia gave her a set of mental energy. control.
After telling a lot of information about her betrayal of her master (the warden) against her will, Lysonia, whose will was in conflict and confusion, could no longer hold on. Her soul turned into pure soul light and dissipated in the wind, and that was the end. A lifetime of sin.
As the soul bound object of Laisonia, Erydia looked sad, clasped her hands in front of her chest, and silently prayed for Laisonia who had gone astray.
The sinner came to Sonia and dissipated freely, but the mess left to Visifurne and DeVos was far from over.
The Forsworn under the command of the Loyal Saint and the Pure Saint are attacking each other inside and outside the Heroes' Rest. This fierce internal fight that breaks the dog's mind can be clearly seen even by the Kyrians in the Castle of Elysium.
Regardless of how the situation unfolds, the top priority is to end the internal strife among the Forsworn.
Visifurne, who finally knew the inside story of Devos's fall into the sky, was still a little emotional, and her emotions could not calm down for a long time, but at least she knew what she should do now.
DeVos also temporarily suppressed his complicated mood, and appeared together with Vessey Furniture, respectively, to appease their respective subordinates to stop fighting.
When the two groups of Forsworn were clearly separated again, the elite troops from the direction of Bliss Castle, who planned to take advantage of the chaos to attack, arrived just outside the gate of Heroes' Rest.
The Bliss Castle side did not expect that the internal fighting among the Forsworn would end in such an anticlimactic manner. When the other party was already on guard, the planned raid could only be aborted.
Seeing that the common enemy Kyrian had already attacked, the Forsworn under the command of the Loyal Saint and the Purity Saint tacitly put aside their differences and unanimously faced off against the Kyrian raiding party.
At this point in the war, the Forsworn side has basically achieved its goal.
From Saryan's point of view, what they need to do next is not just to continue to advance.
If you destroy the promotion fortress, you don't have to spend energy to repair it later.
Visifurne and Devos can completely rely on the advantage of the Forsworn army on the battlefield to force the Kyrian side to come to the negotiation table and get what they want through mutual compromise negotiations.
Although DeVos was puzzled and angry at the intrusion of Sarlayan and his group at first, after calming down and figuring out the cause and effect of the matter, both DeVos and Vessey Furniture showed considerable affection towards Sarlayan and the others. trust and thanks.
If these four mortals hadn't intervened in time, the conflict between Devos and Visifurne would have inevitably caused a major incident that was difficult to end, which would only cause pain to the loved ones and happiness to the enemies.
Knowing that Sarlayan was acting as the Margrave of Creation and representing the Queen of Winter and the Five Great Mysteries of Maldraxxus to mediate the conflict, Devos and Visifirne took advantage of the situation and adopted Sarlayan. The proposal was made to the Bliss Castle side for negotiation.
Without Gristia himself taking action, it would be difficult for the Grians to lead a comeback against the will of the people with just three saints with varying degrees of injuries.
More than 70% of the Kyrians and candidates in the Ascension Bastion support the Forsworn in forcing Gristia to change the law. If they continue to enforce the law, Bliss Castle will completely lose the support of the people, and the gain will not be worth the loss.
Saint Gessandria of Courage was the most seriously injured and is still unable to fight, and Gristia is still autistic as expected.
As the representatives of the Bliss Castle, the wise Saint Jessenius and the humble Saint Jacquelos agreed to the Forsworn's negotiation requirements after some discussion.
Sarlayan did not pay attention to the subsequent negotiation process. After all, this was an internal matter within the Ascension Fortress, and it was not easy for him, who held the title of Acting Marquis of Maldraxxus, to interfere.
After witnessing the four saints calmly coming to the negotiation table, Sharlayan obtained permission to enter the city from Senius and Kairos as an envoy to Ardenweald and Maldraxxus.
Valeera, Stellagosa, and Onyxia ascended into the sky on Sarlayan's transformed gryphon, aiming directly at the floating city of Elysium suspended above the sky.
…
Ascension Bastion and Maldraxxus both have floating cities, but they serve completely different purposes.
The floating cities of Maldraxxus are dedicated to combat and are defined as flying fortresses on the battlefield.
The Bliss Castle is an administrative building complex. This is Gristia's palace and the political center of the fortress.
When Sarlayan was brought to Elysian Castle by a Kylian civil servant named Adrestis, the scene here was different from what Sarlayan and others had imagined.
In Valeera's imagination, there should be a large number of angels with snow-white wings flying freely around the Bliss Castle.
The wings and the sky city are intertwined, which should reflect a dreamlike scenery.
But when they actually arrived at Paradise Castle, the first thing that appeared in front of the four people was a battalion full of wounded soldiers.
Bliss Castle was not used as a fortress from the beginning, and not many troops were originally stationed here.
In the view of the senior officials of Ascension Fortress, including Gristia, if one day the enemy breaks through the layers of defense and reaches Fort Bliss, it means that the defense system of Ascension Fortress has completely collapsed, and there is no point in continuing to strengthen Fort Bliss.
Ironically, it was not a powerful foreign enemy that broke through the promotion fortress, but a sudden burst of public opinion after being suppressed for many years.
After shrinking their troops and retreating to Paradise Castle, a large number of wounded soldiers piled up in this small sky palace.
Senius and Kairos could only temporarily transform part of the area of Bliss Castle, allowing the therapists to work overtime to heal the wounded soldiers.
Driven by strong public opinion, the Forsworn army gained momentum, and Kyrian's forces were at an absolute disadvantage.
Even without the internal fighting between Visifurnier and Devos as an opportunity to send troops, Senios and Kairos planned to put all their efforts into a final fight.
If that still doesn't work, just lie down like the Archon Gristia. Anyway, they are also dissatisfied with Gristia's anti-human regulations. Why not see if the Forsworn can change Gristia's stubbornness? idea.
Under the guidance of Archon Auxiliary Adrestis, Sarlayan and his party met their eldest daughter Gristia again in the government palace at the core of Elysian Castle.
[This eldest daughter... looks so decadent. 】
