After Marquis Wenger sent his daughter home, he suddenly vomited blood and fainted on the ground with a pale complexion.
This startled Yunika and others, and the entire Marquis Mansion also entered a state of tension.
Fortunately, after learning about the change in the dreamland, Peter put down all the work at hand and rushed over. After some inspections, he finally determined that Marquis Wenger had just used the spirit-guiding method for too long, and his bloodline power was overdrawn. He just needed to cultivate himself well. Everyone
Only then did the big stone in my heart fall to the ground.
"I didn't expect that the disaster has spread to the edge of the city! Ms. Yunika, please don't leave the city in the near future. I will contact the Ancient Snake Sect and cooperate to confirm the current situation of the Purple Berry Garden."
Before leaving, Peter gave a very serious warning.
Yunika nodded repeatedly.
She also took the initiative to leave the city? After this experience, even if her best friend came to invite her in person, she would never agree!
A few weeks later, an elite team composed of priests and sorcerers walked out of the city gate, braved the wind and snow, and headed west to the Purple Berry Garden.
The scene was full of exposed rocks and accumulated ice and snow, and all the beautiful purple flowers that could bloom in the severe cold were gone. Of course, there was no trace of the terrifying dreamland left.
The team brought the results of the careful investigation back to the city. Peter, who was dealing with official duties, relaxed his brows a little, while Yunika, who was silently paying attention to the progress of the investigation, also breathed a sigh of relief.
Just think of it as a nightmare.
Yunika thought to herself and decided to welcome her new life.
She went to a restaurant she frequented and called another girl who also escaped death. The two ordered a table full of dishes and prepared to say goodbye.
"Daisy and the others are good girls, we will always remember them. Cheers!"
"cheers!"
The two of them, who had never drank, got very drunk this time, and they went home separately until the night was getting late.
Sitting on the slightly swaying carriage, she didn't know whether it was because of her drunkenness. When passing the city gate, Yunika suddenly felt that the faces in front of her looked very familiar.
"Stop! Louis, what family is in front of you preparing to leave the city?" Yunica opened her tired eyelids and asked the coachman to quickly hold the reins.
"Miss, it seems that they are all friends you often invite to tea parties. Eliza, Helen... But it's quite strange. Why do these people want to go out of the city now? It's so urgent. People outside the city at night
There are far more dangers."
Every time Louis called out a name, Yunika sobered up a little bit more.
Her fingers trembled slightly as she opened the curtains. Those names were all too familiar to her. They were all friends she missed at the dinner table not long ago.
But aren't they already dead? They are already dead! Their families even held a grand funeral.
Unika looked at Louis, who had a normal expression and completely forgot that he had driven her to attend the funerals of the deceased.
At the city gate, several carriages carrying goods passed by in an orderly manner. As if aware of Yunika's sight, the woman driving the carriage turned her head, curled her hair with her fingers and smiled softly, while the linen covering the goods on the carriage was covered by the wind.
He blew up a corner, revealing corpses folded like clothes.
The frightened expression on it is lifelike.
Yunika closed the curtain with a snap.
The sound of the motorcade's wheels faded away and disappeared, and the heartbeat in the carriage never calmed down.
…
Earthquakes are becoming more frequent.
The lights of the Holy State Parliament were kept on, and the disaster relief bill could not be completed despite working overtime.
Huge amounts of materials are shipped out of warehouses every day. Some are delivered to the victims, while some are no longer received by the victims. Even villages and towns have disappeared on the ground.
One day, the entire earth suddenly shook. The intensity and scope of the earthquake were unprecedented, and the earth was turned upside down.
Several hundred-meter-long ground cracks were left in the supposedly flawless Shia Square, and the bronze bell that had been hung for a hundred years in the magnificent Holy Glory Cathedral fell to the ground, making a sound that resounded throughout the city.
Before the Holy State of Shia had time to investigate the source of the earthquake, an urgent intelligence message sent to the capital shocked all officials.
The Tigede Empire fell.
An ancient country that is adjacent to the Holy State and is not inferior to the Holy State in terms of area, population and history, has quietly turned into the smoke of history with this earthquake that affected an unknown area.
Wave after wave of people went to investigate, but there was only a thick fog that could not be cleared on the land of the Tigede Empire, and the investigators also disappeared in the fog one after another.
The only harvest of the Holy State is a string of sacred words engraved on the land, which together means "Fog River".
"The Demon God Wuhe destroyed the Tigede Empire. Prime Minister, what do you think we humans are in the eyes of the gods and demons?" Under the setting sun, Prince Iroh clenched the letter in his hand in confusion. In this God's place, it was like a natural disaster.
In the face of magical power, a country is as fragile as an individual.
"Your Highness, there is no need to belittle yourself. A friend once told me that human beings are the greatest miracle in the world, and I agree very much. Gods and demons have their nobility, but we humans also have unlimited possibilities for the future." Lin Yuan said.
"Infinite possibilities... Your friend is really an amazing philosopher. If there is a chance, I really want to meet him." Iroh looked surprised. There are gods and demons in the world, and people who can say such things are searched all over the world.
There are also fewer.
"Unfortunately, I don't know where this friend has gone, and I don't know if he will come back." Lin Yuan shook his head with emotion.
Iroh also sighed with regret, but then a greater curiosity appeared in his heart: "Prime Minister, do you often come to this open space just to wait for that friend to come back?"
"Yes." Lin Yuan did not deny it.
The clearing Iroh was talking about was the place where Shiying disappeared with the pale arm. Once, he completely lost sight of Shiying. But as time passed, a feeling in his heart became clearer and clearer.
Perhaps this adapted star master never left, he just existed by his side in some form that he didn't understand yet.
"Maybe one day, he will come back, and then I will introduce him to His Highness." Lin Yuan said.
"Okay!" A smile appeared on Iroh's face for a long time, "By the way, this morning, Pope Chenyi sent someone to invite you for the third time. Do you want to continue delaying?"
"No. The Pope should also be aware of the abnormal rise in chaos, and some things cannot be delayed. Let's do this. I will go to the cathedral later. Your Highness does not need to worry too much. The Demon God Wuhe is certainly terrifying, but Saint Shia
Bang is also under the gaze of the noble ancient snake." Lin Yuan replied, his words made the prince's face become much brighter.
When the carriage carrying Lin Yuan appeared at the door of the cathedral, the nuns who had been well prepared threw a shower of flowers into the sky, and the girls in the choir sang hymns in unison.
The scene was bright and sacred everywhere, and people passing by could not help but stop in surprise. When they saw the conspicuous white dragon emblem on the carriage, they felt relieved.
It turns out that he was the prime minister who saved the Holy Kingdom. No wonder even the church is so solemn.
"Who would have thought that the Holy Kingdom would actually give birth to a six-ring warlock? God's blessing is nothing more than this."
The person in charge of the reception was Bishop Hami from the Fanon City branch church. He looked at the handsome young man getting off the car in front of him with complicated eyes, and he was very happy in his heart.
If he had really insisted on being an enemy of Lin Yuan, I am afraid that the grass on his grave would be several meters high now, not to mention that he would be appreciated by the Pope and promoted to Cardinal.
Past memories flashed through his mind quickly, and Hami didn't dare to neglect. He put on the warmest smile in his life and hurried over.
"Bishop Hami? So you are still in the capital. Are you the one who will take me to see Pope Chen Yi this time?" Lin Yuan said with a smile, not expecting to meet an acquaintance again.
Hami smiled apologetically, and without showing any airs like a cardinal, he made a "please" gesture and began to lead the way responsibly.
After passing through many rooms and corridors, Hami stopped:
"Prime Minister Lin Yuan, only you can go to the next place. The Pope is waiting for you in the oracle hall in front."
Lin Yuan nodded, without hesitation, stepped on the soft velvet carpet and pushed open the door at the end of the road.
There are no tables, chairs or other items in the empty room. The surrounding walls are carved with murals of angels, flowers, believers, etc., but in the center of the room there is only an eyeless ancient snake statue that is more than ten meters high.
The gray-haired pope knelt down in front of the icon and prayed devoutly:
"O great Lord, your country and your people are being persecuted by evil spirits. Please give your humble believers the strength to drive away the darkness and let the light shine on the earth and all living beings."
Many tiny points of light floated out from the icon and merged into the Pope's body.
But Lin Yuan saw through the true nature behind the glory.
The Pope's body was riddled with horrific scars. Those light spots tried their best to mend and heal them, but in the end, it was a waste of time and they could only barely maintain the vitality of the Pope's body.
Was it the previous battle with the fallen king?
A flash of realization flashed in Lin Yuan's eyes. To extradite the ancient snake, the Pope obviously paid a huge price that was difficult for outsiders to know. The most intuitive thing is that the Pope's face has aged by several decades.
Sensing someone coming into the room, Chen Yi finished reciting the prayer, stood up and looked at Lin Yuan, his turbid eyes cast an extremely sharp light:
"This world has been targeted by the minions of the ultimate devil, and destruction is inevitable. I can extradite the Lord's brilliance to allow people to go to the Kingdom of Heaven in advance, but this will violate the Lord's teachings. People who are forced to go to the Kingdom of Heaven are doomed to never gain it. To Anning. Prime Minister Lin Yuan, I want to hear your opinion."
"The minions you are talking about refer to the evil creatures that have entered the divine realm?" Lin Yuan asked.
"Yes, according to the investigation information sent back by the bishops from various places, it is known that the active ones include the Mist River affiliated with the Lost Fog, the Refracting Mirror, the Blurred One affiliated with the Abyss, the Dementia Dreamland, and the Overlapping Return. The Tigede Empire's Destruction is not an isolated case, in the far reaches of this earth, many countries have long been in ruins." Chen Yi said helplessly.
This is why he came up with such an extreme method. Rather than enjoying peace, those who die at the hands of evil gods and monsters will have their bodies and souls go crazy in chaos until they are completely destroyed.
But with the power of God directly deciding the life and death of a country, even if he was the Pope, Chen Yi felt that he couldn't bear it, so he thought of Lin Yuan. Only in front of the most powerful warlock in history could he speak a little bit. Get rid of the backlog of thoughts in your heart.
Lin Yuan could feel the huge fear hidden in the heart of the old man in front of him. He raised his head and looked at the icon of the ancient snake, then looked at the old man calmly and said:
"Let what belongs to God be given to God, and what belongs to man be left to man. Even now, with so many disasters, people still have faith in the Holy Kingdom and in life. They believe in human beings and believe that they can create miracles. Just give them A little light."
Chen Yi stared at Lin Yuan's young face, and suddenly his eyes widened in disbelief.
I saw silvery white light as bright as the moonlight shining through Lin Yuan's body. The light was not any magic spell, but the endless flow of blood, extremely surging and extremely fresh.
Blood is like divine fire. The most powerful warlock in the Holy Kingdom has unknowingly entered the realm of gods!
"You! You..." Chen Yi pointed at Lin Yuan, feeling a storm in his heart!
No wonder, no wonder, even when facing the icon of the ancient snake, the man in front of him never showed any signs of inferiority.
"I will take action and ask the Pope for assistance. As for who will win, chaos or order, let time witness everything." Lin Yuan said.
The ancient snake icon was quietly falling, and Chen Yi looked at the empty room in ecstasy. He didn't know how much time had passed, and he didn't know when Lin Yuan left.
His wrinkled face suddenly smiled.
Yes, there is no need to be in such a hurry, there is still a lot they can do.
