Chapter 546: Chapter 504: Proving God’s Power to the World!
The citizens’ reactions were like a vibrant tapestry.
Archer’s voice echoed across the square, and when he mentioned the existence and power of the divine, many faces displayed expressions of astonishment.
Some among them had never contemplated such a grand presence as a deity, let alone imagined themselves in connection with one. This sudden influx of information was like a boulder dropped into a placid lake, rippling outwards in waves.
“Is he serious?”
“By the Gods above, isn’t the deity the Fischer family speaks of the Lord of Salvation, Blazing Sun, Lady Silver Moon themselves?”
“What on earth is going on today? What exactly is Lord Archer Fischer talking about?”
Even the century-long reputation of the Fischer family in Nasir City, their most solid stronghold, left many people deep within shocked and confused.
After all, the weight of the Gods’ authority was too immense, spanning thousands of years.
A hundred years ago, the Ouden Continent was entirely under the control of the Gods, an era where Divine Oracles were often delivered, and Divine Punishments would appear every few decades.
Even now, a hundred years later, the Gods had vanished without a trace, yet their influence lingered on.
Thus, within many a mind, doubts and bewilderment inevitably arose.
Lord of the Lost…
What exactly is that?
Is He truly a God?
And is He truly better, greater than all the other Gods?
There were also plenty who felt tangible fear, for in much of the slander from the True Gods Church, the deity worshiped by the Fischer family was a dreadful Evil God.
If all that was said were true… perhaps they were about to sacrifice the whole of Nasir City!
What in the end would they do?
Though no one dared openly contest or question them, more and more silent individuals sought answers deep in their hearts.
Archer was completely caught up in excitement; he enjoyed change, and this great transformation proved particularly delightful.
Before unveiling the speech, the Fischer family had already discussed what needed to be done.
They knew the thoughts that people might harbor in their hearts, and they also clearly understood how to provide them with answers.
“The great Lord of the Lost, He is a God that truly exists! Unlike those ignorant and absurd false gods who abandoned everyone, only the great Lord of the Lost is worthy of our true devotion!”
Archer, with a smile on his face, forcibly maintained his inner composure as he continued to address everyone present.
“And the only destination for our souls, is to enter the embrace of the Lord after death!”
“Do the deities spoken of by the Fischer family really exist?” some people privately mused, their eyes still filled with disbelief.
Suddenly, Archer’s gaze locked onto that person who was muttering internally, causing them to break out in a cold sweat.
He then continued with a laugh.
“What I’m about to discuss is how the Fischer family came into contact with the Lord of the Lost, a miracle that I must share with you… It was a stormy night, when our ancestors Irene Fischer and Chris Fischer encountered the minions of evil!”
Archer began to share the ancestral story that tied the Fischer family to the divine, and how faith had guided their rise to power.
The rise of the Fischer family was a tale as legendary as it gets, and the people listening found it utterly captivating, their attention wholly absorbed.
“This sounds absolutely miraculous!”
“So that’s how the Fischer family rose to prominence… what a legend!”
Some quietly exclaimed, their eyes shining with curiosity, eager to learn more from the Fischer family; yet at the same time, some were filled with worry.
They wondered what the purpose behind the Fischer family’s proclamation of the “Lord of the Lost” was today.
It’s highly likely they hoped to convert the masses.
But most of the people in Nasir City believed in the Tempest Overlord…
Who would willingly convert so easily?
If one blindly trusted in a new deity, could it lead them into a quagmire?
Yet if the God known as “Lord of the Lost” really made an appearance, what would be the fate of those who did not convert?
