The most direct way to make people give in is coercion and inducement. With the help of a mysterious black magic ceremony, Ted undoubtedly achieved these two points at the same time.

Maka leaned back in her chair and looked at Ted, who was still intoxicated with the desire to dominate, in front of the Oder, without any other action.

He seems... Waiting for something.

A moment later, Ted, who had had enough of this pleasure, finally waved his wand again and then continued:

"Remember, next time it won't be as simple as weakness!"

With his words settled, the male and female wizards here only felt that the strength that had just disappeared inexplicably had now returned to their bodies.

When everyone sat down behind him, and one by one fell into silence in a panic, Ted then said:

"I believe you already understand your current situation..."

"Yes, from the moment you complete this magic ceremony, your body, your soul and even your own will no longer belong to you alone."

"I know that although you dare not speak now, you must still be unwilling. Since you can complete the first step of the ceremony, it means that you are at least wizards with good attainments in magic medicine... Then, as long as today, you will try to explore what's wrong with yourself."

Many people are hit by Ted, but it's also a very natural thing.

After learning that the side effect of the magic ceremony was the loss of personal freedom, all but a small number of people began to think about ways to save themselves.

But Ted chuckled again.

"Of course," he said, "whatever you do! Hum... If you think your ability can be compared with that of your teacher?"

After saying so, he put the topic aside a little and said:

"But before that, I have to introduce myself again - I'm Martin, an apprentice of the great ancient wizard Mr. halbo. And this time, I'm calling you together to dedicate your loyalty to the teacher and make you his first believers!"

Not to mention what kind of thoughts the Wizards in the church would have if this straightforward speech would be made, just his self introduction made Maka secretly say "sure enough".

I remember that in the hanging man's tavern, the "tavern owner Ted" mentioned a friend named "Martin" and said that Martin had found something unusual near the tavern some time ago.

At that time, Maka Ben guessed that he must be deliberately talking nonsense in order to divert his attention. So after that, Maka didn't go to the place he said to find out, but left directly.

However, the name "Martin" also remained in Marca's memory. Even afterwards, she thought that the boss might be the "Martin".

Now it seems that his guess at that time really became a prophecy.

As for Ted gleeman, the real owner of the hanging man's Tavern... I'm afraid he has long been hurt by his classmate and friend "Martin"?

While Maka was still thinking about these things, she heard the fake Ted suddenly say:

"Look! The situation is actually very simple, and although you are subject to me, you can get in touch with a really powerful wizard like the teacher! Don't you think it's a very lucky thing to be the first believers of the teacher?"

"So, don't worry --" he said after a brief meal, "although I have to say that the teacher has accepted other apprentices besides me, and although you are the first believers, you may become the first believers far more than you here..."

As for this, he suddenly accentuated his voice:

"But! Follow me and work hard to develop more believers for teachers! If your performance is good enough, the growth of magic power is definitely not a problem, and the power you can have will surpass most ordinary wizards in the world!"

"Think about it! The teacher is different from greenward and Voldemort's short-sighted extremists. He is a real strong man! In his eyes, both hemp wizards and mixed blood wizards are no different from pure blood wizards."

"Therefore, as long as we follow his footsteps wholeheartedly, as long as we are talented and hard enough, we can follow him to the peak of the world!"

"Isn't this what we have been pursuing?"

With this series of provocative speeches, Martin himself seemed to be excited. He stretched his arms, spoke in a higher and higher tone, and the whole person was more and more elated.

To tell the truth, there are indeed many Muggle born wizards, or one of their parents is a Muggle wizard. These people have been discriminated against by pure blood more or less in the past.

Although they resisted because of Martin's previous demonstration, as long as they calmed down and thought a little, they soon realized that they had only one choice left.

Whether it is to give in to Martin's control of force for the time being, or really expect because of his words - becoming a believer in halbo will be the only way they can go.

"Well! I think you must already know what to choose, so..." Martin suddenly raised his hands and motioned, "stand up! Before you get the next information of the magic ceremony for free, join me in chanting the highest purpose of my teaching --"

"Under the soul, all things are equal!"

What kind of slogan is this?

Maka couldn't help laughing at this - because most of these words were added by this guy himself.

Of course, Martin is right to say so in terms of the selfishness of halbona people. Besides Haier Bo himself, isn't it "all things are equal"?

Martin asked all the Wizards present to stand up and respond. Although many wizards in the underground church still felt some resistance, they had to stand up and exhale loudly.

Maka mingled with the crowd, but pondered over the other party's previous words.

I remember this guy just mentioned that he is not the only "Apprentice" of Haier Bo, and the first batch of believers will not only be present.

In fact, that's what Maka has been waiting for.

The reason why he didn't do it directly some time ago, but let this guy continue to act secretly in the upside down Hangman tavern, is to find out more wizards who may be following Haier Bo from him.

Now, when he naturally knew that his guess was true, he came to the secret meeting today.

So, is it time to close the net now?

No, of course, it's more than that - according to Maka's original plan, as long as halbo doesn't show up at the rally, he doesn't have to rush to catch people.

Even after catching this Martin, it is possible to get more clues from his head by means of mindfulness or vomit, but it will most likely be found by Haier Bo.

It's better to wait patiently than take the risk, isn't it?

Now, the rally is coming to an end. According to Marka's conjecture, if halbo intends to appear, it must be in the last period of time.

After that, Maka watched the wizards and wizards in the church sign confidential documents one by one, and then went to Martin to get the parchment recording the next step. After thinking about it, he went to sign his name and got a copy.

Although there was a strong curse on the confidential list, Maka knew at a glance that it was not Haier Bo's hand, but something made by Martin himself.

Therefore, even if signing a name will have a very terrible restriction on ordinary wizards, Maka can easily deceive the curse with a confusion curse and sign a pseudonym at will.

Until the last moment, Haier Bo never appeared.

It's rare not to wait for this despicable guy to become what Maka expects - at least it's best that halbo doesn't appear until he catches all the so-called "apprentices" and "believers".

Before the meeting ended, Martin solemnly reminded:

"The time of the next meeting will be notified in a different way from today... During this period, remember to find more and more reliable believers for the teacher! After completing this ceremony, you will experience the real mystery of this magic ceremony, but the subsequent ritual steps will not be available for free like today!"

With Martin's words finished, I don't know how many people really listened.

However, as long as these wizards and wizards can't release Martin's control over them before the next meeting, they can only obey this guy's orders.

Seeing that a group of wizards began to leave the underground church one after another, Maka looked around and wanted to follow out.

Next, it's time to let lupin, Sirius and others get busy and find out the identity of these wizards attending the rally today.

But when Maka followed the crowd to the stairs leading to the ground, he noticed that a wizard had not left with the others and was still sitting silently on the prayer bench in the church.

With a slight frown, Maka immediately walked into the stairway, but saw him flickering in the crowd. In the twinkling of an eye, he quietly disappeared without anyone noticing.

Then he returned to the church and sat down in a prayer chair in the middle aisle.

Who's the guy who stayed? Why did you stay?

With regard to all the circumstances of today's rally, Maka suddenly felt that he might see a good play here next.
