Similarly, after feeling the sudden pressure, the two knight companions called by Refant were so frightened that they dropped their weapons and knelt on the ground respectfully, not daring to raise their heads.

They clearly remembered that just a few weeks ago, the great God of Darkness came to the Dark Temple with the help of the high priest Delphi just like today.

After that, the God of Darkness promptly informed them of the information about the Church of Light’s secret siege and suppression operations through the Oracle Mirror, allowing them to prepare for battle in advance and use “wildfire” to annihilate the Church of Light’s Guardian Knights.

.

These events all show that the God of Darkness they believe in has awakened from many years of slumber and is gradually regaining its former power. Think about it, even what happened inside the Saint Sophia Cathedral of the Church of Light cannot be hidden from him.

It is enough to prove that he is as omniscient and omnipotent as ever.

Today, Refant and his two companions finally mustered up the courage to step forward and point their weapons at the high priest Delphi, threatening him to submit.

But if they are asked to point their weapons at the superior gods...

It would be better to let them commit suicide on the spot immediately.

At this moment, facing the thick black fog, they were all trembling, not only because of the howling cold wind, but also because of the fear in their hearts.

When the black fog dissipated, "High Priest Delphi" had already stood up again, with his hands behind his back, like a pavilion standing on a mountain, with a majestic momentum.

But the three young knights all knew that the high priest at this time was no longer the real high priest.

"My lord, forgive me!" The three of them blurted out in uneasy moods.

They knew that the great God of Darkness knew everything. They could not hide it from each other.

Immediately admitting their mistake and begging the gods to spare their lives was their only choice at this time.

Upon hearing this, "Delphi" did not speak immediately.

He still stood in the cold wind with his hands folded, looking quietly into the distance. In his dark and deep eyes, it seemed that everything in the world had nowhere to hide.

As time went by, the heartbeats of the three young knights gradually accelerated, and they became more and more frightened. They felt that the thoughts of the gods were as unfathomable as recorded in the "Dark Scripture".

I don’t know how much time passed before “Delphi” finally spoke leisurely:

"It seems that you want to dissuade my high priest from attacking the Northern Tribunal of the Church of Light?"

"Don't dare." The two knights lowered their heads.

Only Refant raised his head, as if he wanted to explain something, but in the end he chose to remain silent.

After all, since the God of Darkness may come in person at any time, then their capture of the Northern Tribunal of the Church of Light is no longer a death-defying act, but has a high chance of winning.

"Refant," at this moment, "Delphi"'s eyes suddenly fell on Lei, "I appreciate your character of emphasizing love and justice, but this does not mean that you can use force to commit such crimes. You

Tell me, how do you want to atone for your sin?"

"I am willing to die to apologize. I just ask not to implicate my companions," Lei took a deep breath, lowered his head and said, "They were all forced here by me. This is my responsibility alone, and it should be mine."

You have to bear it yourself.”

Hearing this, "Delphi" chuckled, took two steps forward, and came to Lei.

"You are a loyal young man. However, if you die, it will not be of any benefit to me," I heard him say leisurely, "Why don't you use the rest of your life to redeem your merits and obey the orders of my high priest?"

, go and capture the Northern Tribunal for me."

"Yes." Refant said without hesitation.

On the one hand, he was so excited and grateful for God's decision to spare his life that he couldn't help but feel the bridge of his nose feel slightly sore and the tears rolling in his eyes.

On the other hand, he was also surprised to find that "attacking the Northern Tribunal" was not only the decision made by the high priest Delphi, but also the thoughts of the God of Darkness himself.

This made his heart beat faster and his blood surge up unknowingly. He just wanted to pick up the sword immediately and kill the enemy bravely in order to "exchange his merits".

"Give me your sword." After a moment, "Delphi" said again in an indifferent tone.

Refant immediately picked up the long sword beside him, raised his hands above his head, and handed it to "Delphi".

"Delphi" stretched out a hand and gently stroked it from the blade of the sword.

Suddenly, black flames rose from the blade of the sword, swaying wildly in the cold wind and burning more and more intensely.

But Refant, who raised the sword with both hands, felt no burning sensation at all, as if the flame had no temperature at all.

Lei knew that this was the legendary miracle.

And this moment was the moment he was closest to the miracle.

After a few minutes, the black flames gradually subsided and then disappeared.

Refant glanced up cautiously and saw that the iron sword, which originally had a metallic color and was slightly rusty, had completely turned into a pure, non-reflective black. In comparison,

In the past, its blade has become sharper.

"Refant, for the sake of you being a brave warrior, I give you this sword in my name today," "Delphi" was heard saying majestically, "It's called 'Ode to Darkness'

', attached with three negative effects of 'fear', 'fatigue' and 'aging'.

"I only hope that after you have it, you can fight bravely as always, so that everyone in the world will fear the reputation of the Dark Temple."

Lei was surprised and happy, obviously he did not expect that God would give such a weapon to him.

He couldn't help but think to himself: This "Ode to Darkness" was forged by the great God of Darkness himself. It is a genuine artifact! It seems that from now on, I will also be the one who has used artifacts!

He stuffed the "Hymn of Darkness" into the scabbard on his back, then bowed his head deeply again and sincerely thanked the gods.

When he raised his head, the figure of "Delphi" had already been surrounded by black mist again.

Refant slowly stood up and silently watched the black fog dissipate.

Then, he saw the high priest Delphi lying on the ground with a blank expression on his face.

"Did...did I faint again just now?" Delphi asked with a frown.

Lei nodded, and then said: "High Priest, let's set off early tomorrow! We need to attack the Northern Trial Center as soon as possible."

Delphi looked at him seriously, thoughtfully.

Mage Tower, Allen's dormitory.

Allen opened his eyes and his consciousness returned to his body.

Giving weapons special attributes was a technique he learned from the memory fragments of the God of Darkness. It sounded cool, but for him, it was also very costly.

He only felt that the divine power in the black crystal stone was empty, and it would probably take a long time to recover.

This also means that during the period of recovery of divine power, such a method cannot be used a second time.

Allen sighed silently, then exhausted, slumped on the bed without any image, waiting for his strength to slowly recover.

However, at this moment, the sound of the door lock suddenly sounded.

Howard is finally back.
