In fact, more than ten days have passed since this script was written.
On the first day, the demons were dancing wildly, and the players who had just entered the script were making trouble like crazy, and almost all arrangements were made.
Black Dragon Island, Turnus City State, Guangming City, the Royal Capital, the Far North Mountains...
No one has a moment's rest.
After the crazy deployment in the first two days, the subsequent journey gradually slowed down, and all the players began to boil the frogs in warm water, playing dirty tricks and temptations.
The team of the Holy See of Light set out from Guangming City and drove at normal speed for about ten days, and now they have arrived at the Eastern Continent.
There are still two or three days left.
We are about to enter the royal capital.
Therefore, the Pope of Light, who has been out in the wild for ten days, has to catch up with the large army.
…
"The aura of the ice and snow elves in your body will probably attract some interested people to investigate. Do you mind if I leave a light magic in your body, so that you can disguise yourself as my maid and follow along."
"mind."
"Then please stay away from me."
"..."
The ice elf saw how a man could change from a gentle smile to a cruel and ruthless look in an instant.
The corners of her mouth twitched, and she turned away from the other party with an expressionless face.
Xu Shuo dressed up as a priest and did not hide his identity as the Holy See of Light. After entering the Eastern Continent, he found a local church to live in.
Because there is a Temple of Light inside the church, you can save some magic output and directly use the formation to obtain news from other places.
Otherwise, he would have to make the magic circle outside.
At that time, not only will we have to work hard to suppress the overflow of magical energy, but problems may also be detected.
Sunset in the west.
There were dim clouds on the horizon.
The ice elf watched the man ruthlessly walk into the Church of Light. She stood on the roadside and pursed her lips. She turned her head and looked at the surrounding buildings. She didn't know where she was going to spend the night tonight.
They all lived in the mountains before.
When I first came to the city-state.
She really didn't know what to do.
It is absolutely impossible to enter the Church of Light.
She won't go in even if she dies!
…
Night.
Catalina sat in the temple with an expressionless expression.
Xu Shuo said from the side: "Tomorrow I will join my Holy See Army and continue to the Royal Capital. In a few days, your sister will probably come to the Royal Capital, or she may simply go to Guangming City."
Catalina: "...Oh."
Now that she heard her sister's name, she was just in a trance, with a somewhat complicated look in her eyes.
Then he still had a look of neither sadness nor joy.
Her sister is about to expire, and death is an inevitable outcome, and her sister just wants to fight for the ice and snow elves one last time before she dies.
But now the elven holy trees are gone.
My sister's efforts have no effect at all.
Therefore, along the way, Catalina has been thinking about the profound meaning of survival, ethnicity, and faith, although she still has not thought of any answers until now.
Catalina couldn't help but think of what the light worker said before - "God is just a synonym for sustenance."
No need for gods.
Then there is no need for faith.
What the world needs is not a physical savior, but spiritual relief and detachment.
As long as there is God in the hearts of the world, God will always exist, regardless of the power of His faith or whether He really exists in the world.
The ice elves are obsessed with the inheritance of their bloodline.
So why is he not clinging to the fleshly savior?
This persistence allowed them to integrate the power of Dawn's faith, just to allow the Elf Holy Tree to continue to breed new ice and snow elves, pure ice and snow elves.
But the result of persisting until now.
But the race is facing extinction.
Immediately afterwards, Catalina thought of the Silver Duke again, and of the human hybrid descendant with elven blood.
Catalina suddenly said in a daze: "If what is inherited is not blood, then what exactly do we, beings of different races, need to inherit?"
Xu Shuo was reading the message from the Sun Knights. When he heard this, he turned to look at the ice and snow elf who looked distraught.
He thought for a while and said: "Civilize it, it belongs to your own civilization inheritance of the ice and snow elves."
"What is civilization?" Catalina asked in a daze.
"Read more." Xu Shuo said sincerely.
"..."
This day that was supposed to be a heart-to-heart talk was ruined.
The temple was extremely quiet, and the light that shone in all directions was somewhat intense. For the first time, the ice and snow elves felt what it meant to be in hot weather.
She rested her head against the pillar and stared at the high dome in a daze.
The dome of the temple is carved with complex patterns, which seems to be the sun crown symbol of the Holy See of Light, or it seems to be some kind of missionary site, or it seems to be the light that blooms when the gods come.
After looking at it for a while.
Catalina suddenly straightened up.
She looked at the young man with burning eyes and said, "Show me your light scripture!"
Xu Shuo: "...?"
When Xu Shuo, who was reading the news carefully, heard this, he actually didn't react for a moment until he saw the ice elf's expression was extremely determined.
Then let me take a look at it.
Anyway, the Light Canon is spread across the entire continent, and can be seen by everyone from octogenarians to young children. There is no confidential information worth concealing.
After getting the Book of Light, Catalina walked aside and opened the golden book with a serious expression.
She studied it with the intention of reading.
The inheritance of the ice and snow elves cannot really be cut off from her. No matter what, she must at least let the world remember it.
There once was a race of ice elves.
Even in the form of legend.
…
The time for research is very short.
Xu Shuo found a chance to rest in the temple for a while, and when he woke up, he found that the ice and snow elf was still reading the Light Scripture tirelessly.
Xu Shuo: ...If we look at it further, this elf will probably turn into the shape of the Holy See of Light.
He yawned and saw a jade stone floating on the magic circle.
It should have been delivered last night.
Xu Shuo took the jade over and looked at it.
Zuo Fang: [It is my duty to slay the dragon.]
Then the following is the resentment towards a certain black dragon.
Xu Shuo quickly skipped through the nonsense and finally found the key information at the end.
——
The Sun Knights hidden in the Amician Mountains had indeed tracked the whereabouts of the White Bishop, and had continued to track him to the Western Continent.
It's a coincidence.
Because of the terrifying battle between the black dragon and the ice elves in the Amician Mountains, the white-clothed bishop was a little panicked and he happened to run into the Sun Knight team who was about to meet Zuo Fang.
When the two sides meet, they are confused at first, then chase and escape.
Because the situation was so urgent, the team did not have time to leave a message to the larger army and pursued the white bishop deep into the Amician Mountains.
In order to avoid pursuit from behind.
The white bishop gritted his teeth and rushed into the frost forest left by the ice and snow elves, passing by the place where the two sides fought. He wanted to use the chaos to get rid of the sun knight.
As a result, both parties who were fighting ignored the chase and ran away.
Because the Sun Knight knew the identity of the black dragon and even watched the small battles between the two sides in other places for two days, he pursued the battlefield without any hesitation.
So the chase and the escape passed through the ice lake.
The black dragon looked at the person the Sun Knights were chasing with a little curiosity, but due to this distraction, the ice and snow elf found an opportunity to get into the bottom of the lake.
And the lake was frozen at an extremely fast speed.
Because of one glance, I missed a ration!
Sun Knight chased his target without knowing it.
When the large army of knights led by Zuo Fang found the ice lake, the team was about to chase them out of the Amician Mountains. However, they were ambushed in a dangerous place by the white-clothed bishop ahead.
Several people were seriously injured and two Sun Knights were lost.
The above is the news that came last night.
Xu Shuo's response at the time was: "You don't have to return to the team now. If you catch the bishop in white, you will never come back until you catch him."
He lost two Sun Knights.
Still want to keep running?
Zuo Fang: [I know, let’s go and slay the dragon.]
Then this morning.
Zuo Fang: [It is my duty to slay the dragon.]
The Knights of the Sun chased him all night long, and finally managed to catch the bishop in white.
The place where the incident occurred.
A small border town in the Western Continent.
Dozens of Sun Knights were chasing him fiercely and immediately surrounded him, making it difficult for him to fly even if he took wings. What's more, even if he flew, there would still be a black dragon staring at him outside.
After Xu Shuo read the news, he crushed the jade stone with a calm expression, and responded by asking them to catch up with the Holy See Army with them.
If the other party tries to resist and escape on the way.
Then just kill him directly.
Xu Shuo retracted his thoughts, casually tidied up his messy long hair, and looked at the ice and snow elf over there who was studying the Light Canon intently.
"Let's go, we have to catch up with the Holy See Army today."
They have just left the Andas Mountains.
However, the Holy See Army has already entered the Eastern Continent and is about to arrive at the Royal Capital. The time left to stay with them is running out.
When the ice elf heard this, he seemed to have come back to his senses from the Light Scripture, and then he closed the Scripture and stood up with an expressionless face, like a ruthless reading machine.
Xu Shuo couldn't help but asked curiously: "So, what did you see after watching it all night?"
Catalina looked at him: "Today's Holy See has never thought about worshiping and believing in its own gods. Today's God of Light is just a tool to facilitate the exercise of divine power to control the continent, right?"
Xu Shuo suddenly smiled.
He didn't comment, he just stretched his waist and walked leisurely towards the outside of the temple.
Then a lingering sound came.
"The grace of God is like the sea, and the power of God is like prison."
——The grace of God is like the sea, and the power of God is like prison?
Catalina was startled.
She recited this sentence silently in her mind, but still couldn't understand what it meant and why the other party suddenly said it.
Catalina stood silent for a while.
It wasn't until the young man's back disappeared into the light at the door that she lifted her heels, still holding the Light Scripture in her hand.
…
Because I have to hurry.
So Xu Shuo stopped pretending with the slow carriage and went to the stable to buy two horses and galloped towards the interior of the Eastern Continent.
There are always a lot of people traveling on the mainland.
But it was a bit surprising that two silver-haired men were riding wildly on horseback. Sometimes they would pass by caravans or mercenaries from a distance, and people who observed this scene would look surprised.
Catalina was forced to wear a hat, and her long pointed ears were pressed under the veil.
"I'm telling you, if you still refuse to accept light magic when you get to Dalton City, I advise you not to get close to me."
Xu Shuo said while squinting in the wind.
Catalina remained silent beside her.
Xu Shuo added: "I won't let others hinder my plan. Wang Du has many ways to distinguish the breath of ice and snow elves. If someone discovers that there is a purebred ice and snow elf next to me, it may cause some unexpected things."
External changes.”
Catalina finally spoke up: "So?"
"Either you get out of here, or you accept light magic."
"Oh, your light magic is probably a back-up to prevent me from rebelling. In this case, aren't you worried that I will join the Royal Capital Army if I choose to leave?"
"Of course you can join. But if you become a member of the royal capital, I will definitely use all my strength to kill you, even if the Holy See may fail because of this."
"Why do this?"
"It's nothing, I just want you to die a little more desperate."
"…………"
Very good, we have been chatting to death again today.
Catalina looked at the young man's always calm profile, and she had no doubt that what he said was most likely not a joke.
Because I know her dedication to the inheritance of the ice and snow elves.
So let her death completely cut off this inheritance.
Catalina didn't want to gamble.
Because she really cares about this matter.
For the sake of the ice and snow elves, she would not hesitate to enter the territory of the Church of Light and learn the inheritance method of the Light Canon.
The conversation is over.
The two fast horses silently ran toward the fortress ahead.
It is already evening now.
They traveled all day without rest. If they didn't rest, the people might not fall, but the horses would definitely die suddenly along the way.
But just when they were about to approach the fortress.
Xu Shuo's eyes flashed and he pulled the reins suddenly.
The forward horse neighed and was forced to turn to the right. After moving forward for a certain distance due to lateral inertia, it slowly slowed down.
Catalina on the left was shocked when she saw this.
She was a step slower, but quickly gathered the reins.
"What's wrong?"
"Change lane!"
Xu Shuo shouted without looking back, and drove the horse to run quickly, heading towards the woods on the side, seemingly intending to bypass the fortress.
Catalina was stunned and confused, but the young man had already left her and galloped away, so she had no choice but to quickly drive the horse to catch up.
And just then.
Probably they noticed their behavior of changing lanes.
A group of armed cavalry suddenly rushed out of the fort a few miles away and chased the two men fiercely!
Boo hoo hoo——!
A large number of sharp arrows rushed out from the fortress wall.
But because the two of them changed lanes in time, the horses were far away from the range of the cold weapon after galloping a certain distance.
However, the group of cavalry followed closely.
"Give me an explanation!"
Catalina, who was lagging behind, spurred her horse and shouted.
Xu Shuo did not respond to her. He just leaned down and urged the horse to speed up. In an instant, he was far away from Catalina, and also far away from the cavalry.
Catalina, who was about to be overtaken, cursed secretly.
The horse under the seat suddenly felt cold and screamed in pain. The horse's hooves swung rapidly and suddenly caught up with Xu Shuo's speed!
Xu Shuo glanced sideways at her and raised his eyebrows.
