"Old Hoffman is a member of the Church of the Goddess of Harvest, but he is also a member of the Keeper's Sect, which is a small sect under the Church of the Goddess of Harvest and is responsible for imprisoning a legendary sealed evil god from the previous era."

Under Ferrero's narration, Marin heard a somewhat absurd story-the legend killed an evil god in a small village. Because the evil god had the characteristics of immortality, he finally sealed the evil god in a sacred piece of wood.

on the astrology stone, and then... inserted it into his chest.

Marin thought about many questions, and finally asked the question that puzzled him most - how big is the stone?

"There's something wrong with the question you asked. Others ask how powerful this evil god is, but you are the only one who can ask this question." The old bishop of the God of War Church on the side looked surprised.

"If he can be sealed by a legend, how powerful can such an evil god be?" Marin turned around and said: "Compared to the Khorne I have seen, this one can't even defeat the legend, so what qualifications does he have to call himself an evil god?

."

The old bishop of the God of War Church thought for a while and nodded with a smile: "After all, you have been on the ladder, so you are qualified to say that."

Marin knew that the old man was mentioning the day he met Khorne, so he smiled and nodded. As for the fact that he mentioned Khorne's name, it was even simpler. Marin had already met him.

, there is nothing to worry about whether he mentions his name or not.

And from Marin's point of view, those at the level of the Four Vendors are called evil gods, those from the death world like Ayers are called gods of death, and these so-called evil gods in the local area...are just some small minions. In comparison, they

It's just that he has transcended the extraordinary existence and still needs faith to nourish his godhood, and he can even be sealed by legend... Speaking of which, he is not afraid of losing his god.

The Chaos guys who were killed in the Principality of Farol last time can also see that the Chaos warriors don't even have the same armor, and those believers are just flesh-resistance experts wearing rags. It's not easy to create a Chaos priest, which is weak.

There is no comparison with their colleagues on the northern defense line. If the combat strength of the priests in the north is five in numerical terms, then the priests on Farol's side are just the decimal point after zero. There is no comparison between the two sides. If you insist on comparing, then it is probably

It's the difference between a tiger and a mouse.

Old Hoffman laughed and coughed a few times: "You see, Marin, a child, has a different point of view than ours. Yes, this evil god has been sealed for a long time, so long that no one knows about its existence.

The power gradually weakens after being sealed again and again, but it is an evil god after all, and no one dares to take the risk of it breaking out of the seal again. Although we don't know his name, we all know his priesthood, which is

The barrenness that conflicts with the harvest, if it comes out, how many more famines and deaths will the world have to face."

"I know, so, what exactly does this stone look like?" Marin looked at his mentor.

The latter unbuttoned his collar, then took off his coat, revealing the oval astrology stone on his chest. This stone was wrapped in flesh and blood, and it seemed as if there was flesh and blood connected to it under the skin.

Marin took a deep breath: "How many generations have the secret keepers passed down?" Marin looked at his old mentor - he wanted to know how long such sacrifices had been made.

"When my mentor passed it on to me, I also asked this question. His answer was that he couldn't remember clearly. From the last era to the present, in such a long time, human beings have experienced decline, and the great achievements of the secret keepers were recorded.

The library had already been burned down by the flames of war, and I only know that my mentor told me that the only people who can replace me are young men under 30 years old, and they need to have a firm belief."

Old Hoffman sighed when he said this.

"Can't women do it?" Marin looked at the old Hoffman with a serious expression: "Young women are also human beings and have firm beliefs. Why can't they do it? Are the seals divided into men and women? Or do you mean, mentor, that you don't believe in them?"

"Actually, there is no distinction, but when sealed, it will cause harm to the human body." Old Ferrero said.

"Master Ferrero, that's why. First aid science has confirmed that women's tolerance is actually much higher than that of men! Childbirth is the most painful physical pain known in the world. I don't think there is any harm to the human body that can be greater than it."

Unbearable." Marin looked at the mentor with a confused expression: "So, what kind of harm requires the Keeper of Secrets to select only men as the real candidates. Among the fallen people I killed this time,

There is a female apprentice."

"Marin!"

"That's enough, Ferrero, let me give this kid an answer."

Old Hoffman interrupted Old Ferrero's roar. He looked at Marin and began to talk about how to become a secret keeper: "In order to become a true secret keeper, you must abandon all desires. This is because this evil god is sealed in

In the star crystal stone, it is thinking about escaping all the time, but he cannot rely on his own strength to break this sacred star crystal stone. Therefore, tempting the sealer has become a very useful method, so the secret keeper must

Surgery is used to remove the root of desire, and with our current surgical capabilities, the mortality rate for women is seven times that of men when undergoing surgery... Therefore, for my children, girls are always the last choice."

The evil god's method of recognizing a thief as his father stunned Marin. Then he noticed Old Hoffman's beardless face, and then thought of Mason's beardless face. Such an answer made Marin a little uncomfortable, but he still had to ask.

Say this sentence: "Do I have to sacrifice to this point?"

"Yes, Ma Sen is actually the best choice. He was born with a disability and does not have the pain caused by acquired surgery. I know he is afraid of this road, but I believe he will come back to inherit my mantle, but I did not expect that

... He will eventually die in the hands of those children." At this point, old Hoffman looked at Marin: "Although they are depraved, in my eyes, those children are just poor people.

The selected children all have qualified identities and abilities, so I feel sorry for them. The love I gave them is actually hypocritical. I raised them but only made them walk on the road of suffering... That's why I thought

I want to live longer and let more children live past the age of 30 so that they can survive the hardships, but I never thought that these children would rather become chaos than inherit my way."

"Different paths... do not work together. My mentor, you must have never heard of this sentence." Marin shook his head, then looked at Colin: "Ke Lin, what are you going to do?"

"I am my mentor's last apprentice. It is natural for me to become a secret keeper." Colin looked at Marin and said with a sincere expression.

"I've already told Anna that you are no longer my apprentice, Colin." Old Hoffman shook his head.

"What should we do, Hoffman? When you die, the evil god who has lost his container will eventually escape after the astrology stone's seal breaks due to the loss of flesh and blood nourishment. We cannot release the evil god and let the whole world face pain."

Old Ferrero said so.

"Then are we going to make Colin suffer?"

"We can let Colin have the baby with Margaret first!"

The argument between the two old men finally made Colin stand up. He looked at old Ferrero: "No, Tutor Ferrero, I can't do that. Margaret is qualified to be a mother, but she can't make sacrifices for me. I will refuse."

This engagement has been almost seventeen years since the day I was picked up by my mentor. If my mentor had not picked me up, I would have starved to death long ago. So I am not afraid of anything. Maybe fate will let me and

The meeting with my mentor was just to help me make a choice at this moment."

After speaking, the young man walked up to Marin. He looked at Marin, and finally took off the ring on his hand and handed it to Marin: "Give it back to Margaret for me."

"No, things don't seem to be at the end of the rope yet." Marin said and looked at the four people present: "I have a way, it may be dangerous, but you can give it a try."

"You want to suppress the evil god yourself. I have to say that you are indeed a courageous child, but you are still too young. You cannot undergo such an operation. And I don't dare to do such an operation because I know that when I nod

That's when my head hit the ground." Old Ferrero shook his head desperately.

"No, no one will undergo surgery for this. I have a better way, but I want to declare in advance, mentor, can you let the church turn off the defensive circle first?" Marin shook his head - he went up

I have been alone for most of my life. I don't have many pursuits in this life, and having children and grandchildren is one of them. Naturally, I can't help Colin do this.

But this doesn't mean that Marin can't help Colin find a way.

"You want Khorne to come over. That's impossible. When he comes out, the entire Carter Castle will be transformed into the realm of chaos." Old Hoffman's eyes widened: "My child, don't think of such a terrible thing.

Method."

"No, it's not Khorne. I know the consequences of calling him here. What I want to call is a lich named Ayers. He is a guy from the undead plane and has an employment relationship with my people. I let him

I have helped me deal with several chaotic souls. I am thinking that the evil god in the gem is in the state of a soul. He is also quite strong. He may have a way. We can deal with him in his territory, which is also the plane of death anyway.

Even if the evil god breaks through the seal, he will not be able to cause harm to the world."

After saying that, Marin looked at the two old men - Colin had no say in this matter, so there was no need to worry about him.

Old Ferrero glanced at the old bishop of the God of War Church beside him: "Marian, this may be a good idea."

"But I can't trust the undead. Is there no problem in dealing with these guys?" The old bishop shook his head, feeling a little unreliable.

"I don't think we have any other backup options, Hoffman, what do you think?" Old Ferrero looked at his old friend.

The latter thought for a while and finally looked at Colin: "Let's give it a try. For Colin, my last apprentice, if we can really defeat the evil god, the secret keepers will no longer need to pile up sacrifices and dedications."

Each other’s sad fate.”

So when the magic circle closed, Marin spit out the candy in his mouth to Fio, who caught it, wrapped it in tinfoil, turned around and threw it into the void.

Ten seconds later, a dog head poked out from the opened crack.

Marin was about to kill the dog with one knife, and then heard the dog spitting: "Wait a minute! It's me!"

"Ayers, what are you doing?" Marin put away the knife.

"What are you doing again? There were a lot of people when I came here last time. There are a lot less people when I come here this time, but everyone can fight. Can I ask why?"

What Ayers said was also reasonable, so Marin told Ayers about the matter, and finally made a guarantee using the name of Ayers: "This way you should believe me."

The Cerberus retracted its head, and then several people saw Ayers getting out of the crack.

This person 'breathed' greedily: "Ah, there are souls everywhere, it's so beautiful."

"If you continue to breathe like this, I will ask Anonymous to tell that fellow of mine." Marin rolled his eyes at this stupid lich: "How about this, an evil god with a desolate priesthood, is he interested in doing something big?

."

"I'm definitely interested. Killing a god is a big deal that can be bragging about for a lifetime. Even if it's just a crappy evil god in a remote world, he's still a god. Besides, I think this priesthood is quite suitable for me." Ayers said.

.

Marin had some objections to this: "How was it when you went to play last time?"

"It's so cool! Little sister is like Brother Ayres in one bite!"

At this point, the Lich was silent for a moment, and then changed his tone: "Forget it, I don't want this kind of thing anymore. You can take it or not. At worst, kill it and let it dissipate. What do you think?"

"It's a deal, but you have to create a written document, which must mention the nameless one." Marin said.

Ayres nodded vigorously: "No problem, I'll help you kill this evil god. If you ever need to solve Chaos in the future, just come to me. Their souls are in short supply here."

"Happy Trading."

So the contract was signed. Ayers and Old Hoffman confirmed the seal. When he saw the gem, the lich scolded him: "Why do you people here take life and death so lightly? You just put the evil god's

The soul is sealed on a stone and the body is used as a container. Old man, your soul will be wiped out at the moment of death...and this kind of sealing requires a mutilated body. I am really afraid of you."
