Chapter 470: Chapter 247: Crazy PUA! (Two in One)_2
Ryan noticed something amiss with the Imperial Army up ahead and immediately used his perception to sense the activity in Jerusalem City. When he saw Skeleton Monsters taking to the sky from all over the city, his eyes filled with joyous surprise. As an ally from Chen Mo’s faction and one of the ten great leaders, he naturally knew of Chen Mo’s abilities. Just like the Heavenly Dao had revealed their abilities to Chen Mo. It was mutual.
“Warriors! Our reinforcements have arrived! The Imperial Army is now being routed from within Jerusalem City by our reinforcements! Now is the time to press our advantage and pursue them! Block their escape; don’t let a single one get away! Those willing to surrender will be spared!”
While Ryan was directing the Rebel Army’s operations outside the city, Chen Mo had already soared into the air from within. By expending a large amount of Energy, Chen Mo amplified his voice to the extent that everyone in and around Jerusalem City could hear it!
“The Demonic Queen is unprincipled, the Prime Minister tyrannical! The empire’s foundations are as precarious as a stack of eggs. We, the Rebel Army, fight to save the world, not to bring chaos! We now offer you the chance to cooperate with us and accomplish this loyal act of purging the court! Given that the empire has long been controlled by treacherous officials, His Majesty the Emperor himself is in dire straits, urgently needing our support and rescue…”
As Chen Mo delivered this brainwashing speech, backed by the dense Skeleton Monster Army behind him—a force that could easily decide the fate of everyone present—all the Imperial Army Soldiers were stunned into silence!
They had all assumed this was a hopeless situation, a certain death. They never imagined there would be a way out?
Moreover, this way out even offered them a way to save face.
According to his words, joining the Rebel Army wouldn’t be treason; it would merely be purging the court and helping His Majesty the Emperor eliminate treacherous officials.
This was an act of loyalty!
Of course, whether they truly believed it in their hearts didn’t matter. At least for now, their surrender could be justified on the surface.
Being able to convince themselves superficially was enough.
Who would willingly die such a worthless death?
In an instant, a large number of Imperial Army Soldiers cast down their weapons, threw off their armor, and indicated their willingness to surrender.
At this moment, however, Imperial Marshal Albert and the four Generals with him wore extremely grim expressions. Although they also felt that Chen Mo’s words were enough to convince them to surrender, they were still conflicted internally.
They knew these words contained more brainwashing than truth; if they wanted to live, they had to pretend to believe.
However, their integrity made it extremely difficult for them to accept such transparent brainwashing tactics.
And if they didn’t accept, the only path left for them was death.
Should they cling to life ignominiously, or die heroically? It was a difficult choice.
Of course, they could also choose to feign surrender, but the opposing side had Priests in their ranks.
The Priests could cast a soul control spell!
Given their status, if they surrendered, they would undoubtedly be subjected to such a spell to prevent them from suddenly betraying the army and causing a devastating blow.
So, feigning surrender was definitely not an option.
After all, they wouldn’t be able to get past the Priests’ soul control.
Now, it was either genuine surrender or a gallant death.
Albert glanced at the four Generals behind him and asked, “What do you all think?”
At this, Eddie, the most hot-headed among them, immediately retorted, “I think he’s spouting nonsense! There’s no credibility to it! The Queen Mother is His Majesty the Emperor’s birth mother, and Lord Prime Minister is His Majesty’s maternal uncle. They would never harm His Majesty!
“Even if, hypothetically, they would, don’t forget everyone, the Grand Marshal is still by His Majesty’s side. With the Grand Marshal’s strength and status, even the Queen Mother and Lord Prime Minister must show her due respect. Moreover, she answers only to His Majesty. If His Majesty were truly threatened, he would only need to turn to the Grand Marshal to resolve any problem. What need would there be for any Rebel Army to rectify the court! It’s all utter nonsense!”
Hearing this, Albert and the other three Generals all gave bitter smiles. They had been trying to convince themselves, but now, this hot-headed Eddie had extinguished that last possibility.
Indeed!
With the Grand Marshal around, how could His Majesty the Emperor possibly be threatened by anyone?
The Grand Marshal merely needs to step forward, and no one else would stand a chance.
Whether it’s the Queen Mother or the Prime Minister.
Whether they wield immense political power or possess world-shaking might.
Before the Grand Marshal, they are all a joke.
Now that the reasoning was laid bare, there was no longer any basis for self-deception.
Albert felt a pang of regret for asking the question. He had originally hoped to get a couple of those who didn’t want to die to voice some words of agreement, and then they could all surrender together. But now, this hot-headed Eddie had completely blocked off that path.
Just as they resigned themselves to death, Chen Mo’s figure suddenly descended nearby.
These were five important figures. If he could persuade them to surrender, the benefits would be immense.
Seeing that they weren’t making a desperate last stand, Chen Mo felt there was a chance to persuade them.
So, he decided to approach them personally for a chat.
“Gentlemen, are you interested in having a chat?”
As Chen Mo landed, the millions of Skeleton Monsters behind him descended in unison, landing neatly on the ground.
Seeing such a vast, dense horde of Skeleton Monsters behind Chen Mo, the expressions of Albert and his men turned grim.
Initially, they had mistaken these beings for mere Demons.
