"You can perish, but you cannot fall; you can be disappointed, but you cannot despair.
You don’t need to care about what others say, good or bad, as long as you can say loudly to your own soul: I am not depraved or despairing!
We are the forgotten ones, we forget everything, and everything forgets us!
We are death elves, we yearn for darkness, we yearn for the absolute silence of darkness, we believe in the sun, and we believe in the endless rays of the sun.
We enjoy the sunshine, we bathe in the darkness, desire is our goal, and desire is our motivation.
Rebirth is what we yearn for.
Rebirth, our hope.”
Since the Battle of Ankara ended and the Kosga Empire reappeared on the mainland, more than a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
Not being dazzled by the huge victory, during this period of time, Solomon worked steadily and put stability first. While promoting the doctrines of the Undead Cult, he recruited troops and consolidated his strength.
After all, he still had too few resources at his disposal. The 80,000 purple feather knights became the temple guardian army. Although they still obeyed his orders, at least in name, they belonged to the Jiuyou Temple. And the surrendered troops were not needed.
Having said that, as long as they don't cause any big commotion before they are completely transformed, Solomon will be satisfied.
At this time, the new king of the Kosga Empire put most of his thoughts on recruiting troops and rebuilding the legion. He had hundreds of years of family savings and a large amount of gold and silver jewelry that Leoric had buried.
, within a period of time, Solomon will not have any funding gap.
As if making an agreement with Solomon, the Kosga Empire did not move, and the Cayton Kingdom also stopped.
One was worried about the intervention of the gods, and the other was worried that his appetite was too small and he could not swallow it alive. For a moment, the two sides who were destined to live and die fell into a strange balance.
"Your Majesty, Lady Rolanda is back and is seeking an audience outside."
In a side room of the palace of the Kingdom of Kaiden. Luther III was lying on a soft chair with his eyes closed. He didn't know whether he was resting his mind or thinking about something. At this time, a chamberlain walked in quickly.=Jun-zi
Tang-shou-fa=
Finally came back... Without even opening his eyes, Luther III remained motionless and hummed softly: "Bring him over here to see me."
Although he had considerable expectations for Rolanda's return, in front of these servants, Luther III would never put his mind on his words and deeds.
"What did the Pope say?" The chamberlain soon led Rolanda to a side room. Luther III waved everyone away and then turned his attention to the person in front of him.
Rolanda is a minister of the royal family. Not only is he absolutely loyal to Luther III, but he will never have any dissatisfaction with the royal family of the Kingdom of Kaiden. At this time, he is the most trusted person of Luther III. So after just learning about Morning Star
When the God of Solomon fled and Ankara and the Northern Temple fell into the hands of Solomon, one of Luther III's reactions was to send someone to see the Pope. Rolanda was his messenger.
This is a war between gods. In this war, even a huge force like the Kingdom of Kaiton is just a small supporting role. The final outcome of the war depends on the God of Morning Star and the Nine.
The Confrontation of the God of Darkness!
Yes, the God of the Morning Star was indeed defeated once, but who can really know the outcome of the subsequent battle. Maybe the next time the war breaks out, the God of the Morning Star will directly fight back the God of Nine Netherworlds... Anyone
Everyone can find a way out, but not the Cayton Kingdom, not Luther III and all the members of the royal family!
There is no way, who made the Nine Nether Temple and the Cult of the Undead controlled by Leoric, and the Kingdom of Caiton was rebuilt on the basis of the former Kosga Empire!
"The Pope asked us to hold on. He said that the God of the Morning Star would launch a counterattack soon. Before that, he told us to stick to our position and prevent the Cult of the Undead from going any further..."
Rolanda's words seemed exciting at first, but his skinny and sluggish look made Luther III unable to get excited... When does "soon" mean, and how long does "hold on" mean?
?
Holding his head, Luther III was silent for a while, and then continued to ask: "What's the situation over there? Is there still...well, is there still the majesty of God?"
Luther III has already visited the central temple of the royal capital. After the Battle of Ankara, the awe that would involuntarily arise whenever he got close to him in the past has disappeared... Luther III knew what this meant.
What are you wearing?
Rolanda was stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted and said hurriedly: "Everything seems to be normal over there. Compared with the Central Temple in the past, the aura of majesty there is much stronger..."
"It's good that you're still here!"
Closing his eyes, Luther III pondered for a moment, and finally stood up from the soft chair: "Send me an order to order the Red Lion Army, the Southeast Army, the Southwest Army, the Fifth Army, and Archduke Rother to return to the capital immediately.
In the name of the Pope, all the guardian knights of the temple are ordered to return to the central temple... Since Solomon wants to fight, I will accompany him to fight to the end!"
Rolanda hesitated: "Your Majesty, in the name of the Pope?"
Luther III looked indifferent and said: "Just do it this way, the Pope will not object... Don't go through the military department, with my order, you can find a few members of the royal family to do it!"
At this time, Luther III didn't care what the pope's opinion was, and even if he did have an opinion, I believe he would not veto Luther III's order. First article
After all, she was a core member of the royal family. After accepting the order, Rolanda no longer hesitated and quickly got busy.
"The Cult of the Undead, the Temple of Nine Netherworlds, Leoric, King Solomon..."
With the end of the Ankara battle, these people, things, and teachings quickly spread to every corner of the continent. More than a month passed, and there was still no response from the Morning Star Temple. Gradually, some forces and some people finally
I can't bear it anymore... On the continent of Anriel, the Morning Star Temple is used to being strong. The lack of response for such a long time is the biggest anomaly.
"Your Highness, the great magister of the Adventurer's Guild Luo wants to see you."
Solomon ascended the throne as queen, and George was accordingly made a prince. At the same time, he also commanded one hundred thousand ghost knights in the temple, and was the most prosperous and powerful faction in the Kosga Empire. Perhaps it was inappropriate to directly ask to see King Solomon. At this time, George
It has become the first target for some forces and people to visit.
The Adventurer's Guild is a huge pan-continental organization. It has considerable influence in intelligence, mercenaries, and large-scale arms business. It also cooperates with the major empires on the continent to a certain extent. Therefore, even the Morning Star Temple has always been there.
Even the secret suppression cannot stop its growth. George, the emissary of this organization, has to meet... The reconstruction of the empire, and a large part of the huge demand for weapons and armor, depends on this organization!
"Please!" This is already the third messenger that George has received today, and behind each one there is a force that cannot be ignored.
It is not much different from the previous one. On behalf of the Adventurer's Guild, after some discussions with George, the Great Magister of Luo first reached a preliminary cooperation agreement in various fields. Not only did he secretly sell a large number of weapons and armor, but he also provided some top-secret information.
They even secretly provided some mercenaries, which the Kosga Empire needed most at the moment. George could not refuse.
Then, the First Magister of Luo vaguely mentioned the friendly attitude of some countries towards King Solomon. Correspondingly, George also attached the friendly attitude and said that he would report to King Solomon immediately, and the Kosga Empire would also send an envoy to note it as soon as possible.
These countries, of course. It's all secret...
The discussion was almost done, and the Great Magister Luo revealed the last purpose of his trip: "Your Highness, when I come here this time, I also have the secret trust of Mr. Silva, the great elder of the union, and I also want to
Please, Your Highness, please introduce me to someone."
The Great Elder Silva of the Adventurer's Guild is the oldest powerful man in the mainland. Except for the Pope of the Morning Star Temple, even the former Leoric dare not say that he can defeat him. Many times, this Silva is
The spiritual pillar of the Adventurer's Guild. There are only two people in Ankara who are qualified to trust him, King Solomon and Leoric!
"Master, are you asking to see Elder Leoric?" George's heart moved, and he quickly guessed the target of Luo Yi's request... If he asked to see King Solomon, he would not discuss the above matters with George.
.
"Exactly!"
Magister Luo Yi smiled and said: "Master Silva and Elder Leoric are old friends at the same time. When I came here this time, he asked me to say hello to the elder. At the same time, he also had some things that he wanted me to do.
Ask the Great Elder for his opinion."
After pondering for a while, George also smiled and said: "Since it is Lord Silva's secret trust, I think the great elder will not refuse it. If master has time, how about we go now?"
As the number two person in the Nine Nether Temple at this time, George did not even need to inform him in advance if he wanted to arrange a personal meeting with Leoric.
"Then I'll trouble you, Your Highness." Naturally, the Great Magister Luo would not disagree.
Soon, under George's arrangement, a carriage quickly entered the Jiuyou Temple. However, unexpectedly, when leading Magister Luo into the inner hall of the temple, two undead priests blocked them.
"Your Highness, the Great Elder is informing the distinguished guests. He has given instructions that even if His Majesty comes, he is not allowed to enter."
Your distinguished guest? Even King Solomon has to wait outside when he comes?
Not feeling annoyed at being stopped, George's heart moved slightly and he asked in a low voice: "Do you know the identity of the distinguished guest?"
The two undead priests also confessed: "We have been guarding here and no one has entered at all. This order was given directly by the great elder, so we don't know who the distinguished guest is."
"Well, that's a problem for you two. When the great elder is free, inform him immediately and tell him that I'm bringing someone to visit."
Faintly, George understood the identity of the distinguished guest inside, but without saying much, he ordered the two of them, and then apologized to Magister Luo: "Master, it seems that you have to wait for a while, why don't I take you there myself?
How about visiting the temple to make amends?"
"It's a dream come true! I don't hide it from Your Highness. Not only myself, but Sir Silva and the President are also quite interested in the Nine Nether Temple and the Church's teachings..."
Although he was also very interested in the mysterious guest inside, Luo Yi did not dare to use his mental power to explore at will in the Jiuyou Temple. He looked at each other and smiled with George, and the two of them started walking around the temple.
