Act 215 Curtain VIII

Although the gods have left this world for thousands of years, there is no doubt that their majesty and will still remain in this world. Now, the last authority they left in this world has collapsed. There is only one

Maybe, that means the gods have completely given up on Warnd.

The believers of the Dead Moon stayed in the hall uneasily. What happened in front of them was enough to completely subvert their faith, but the Supreme One holding the mercury staff did not speak. The bloody reality reminded them that the best choice at the moment was

Don't make a choice, the dozen or so cold corpses reminded them of this.

Soon several lichs came out of the darkness behind. They came to the corpses and put their hands on the heads of the bodies. The corpses stood up staggeringly and followed them like puppets.

These lichs walked out of the hall.

When Brando saw this scene, of course he understood that it was the undead transformation spell. Most of the believers who could stay in this hall were the children of the dark nobles in the Holy City. Her Majesty the Queen of Madala dared to kill them, but she had to stand behind them.

This is actually a political spectacle in Madara. As human dark nobles, especially saints, they have a natural immunity. No matter what the purpose is, they are executed once.

Opportunities can be transformed into undead and returned to the service of the Empire, with the exception of blasphemers.

However, this is not a good choice for these human dark nobles, because most of these people have joined the temple since childhood and learned how to serve the gods. Most of them are almost isolated from their families. Even if they turn into undead and return to

The family will basically have no chance of getting ahead in this life, and may even be kicked out to lead the army to fight against elves and humans. In fact, it is almost the same as being cannon fodder and dying.

"Her Majesty the Queen..." Brando said.

The Queen of Madala turned back and shook her head at him. There were still some aftershocks in the temple, and the seventeen white bone pillars creaked and swayed, but it was no longer as obvious as before. Among the aftershocks, only Her Majesty the Queen

And the officiant beside her could keep his expression on his face.

Delphine leaned towards Brando with a pale face. She was obviously not notified in advance. The previous scene frightened her. A piece of stone flew past her left shoulder. If it had been a little higher, the prime minister

Thousands of gold will be lost and the jade will disappear.

Although she is now a summoned object of the planeswalker and can be resurrected even if she dies, this rich lady is obviously not familiar enough with this identity.

"What's going on?" Brando noticed Delphine coming to her side and immediately asked in a low voice. But the latter shook her head. She brushed the wet hair on her forehead with her hand and replied tremblingly.

: "I don't know, Her Majesty the Queen will only receive you because the negotiation has come to an end. Now that I think about it, she has deliberately pushed the end of the negotiation to today. She and the priest Philip must have planned it..."

The two of them were almost whispering, and Brando sealed the space with his own rules. He didn't care about what Her Majesty the Queen and Philip noticed a few steps away. "Why?" he asked.

"I don't know..." Delphine bit her lower lip and shook her head: "It's too sudden, but don't worry. I think Her Majesty the Queen is not targeting us."

Brando actually thought so in his heart. He felt that the woman in front of him might not need to go to such trouble to deal with him. He raised his head and saw Her Majesty the Queen picking up the mercury staff, but she did not finally speak.

It was Philip beside her who spoke. The officiant, who had always shown a dull image, took a step forward. He came to Her Majesty the Queen, raised his head and said seriously:

"Quiet, return to your seats, and continue chanting. You must remain pious. No matter what you see or hear, you must not doubt the faith in your heart. Your Lord and your God are calling you.

!Go back, return to your seats, and pay tribute to eternal death and rest!"

His tone was not high, but there seemed to be some kind of magic in his words. All the believers looked at each other, but the blood on the ground was enough to remind them what they should do. Soon, the low and depressed sound echoed in the hall again

The sound of reciting prayers.

Philip turned back and glanced gloomily at the remaining icon.

Brando then found the opportunity and spoke again: "Her Majesty the Queen, you have to give me an explanation."

"I will," the Queen glanced at him and replied coldly: "But not now, I don't have that much time to explain everything to you, you must answer me a question."

"If it's the previous question," Brando replied, "then I've already answered you."

Her Majesty's eyes swept over him coldly.

"I hope you will fulfill your promise, but responsibility is responsibility after all. You will understand this. Can Odin deny everything he bears with an understatement? But in the history we are familiar with, he and the four wise men

No one chooses to act like a coward.”

"Of course I can't either."

"I hope so," she raised her chin. The hall of the Temple of the Dead Moon had cracked. A beam of silver-white moonlight descended from the vault and shone on the altar, making Her Majesty the Queen's face look white.

Person: "Philip, take them to the Sanctuary of the Dead, Thorpus, Netta, and protect the officiant."

"Wait, what does this mean?" Brando was stunned for a moment. It was obviously this woman who wanted to summon them, but they just met her once, asked him a few incomprehensible questions, and wanted them to leave. He didn't care.

Her Majesty the Queen is trying to play some tricks, but she is not someone to be manipulated.

He immediately asked Andrea to stop the undead lords who were walking up, and frowned at Her Majesty the Queen on the stage.

"I said that I will explain everything to you, but not now." Queen Madala also frowned: "Madala has met all your requirements. Now I need your attitude. You can't even do this."

Can’t do it?”

"What's the meaning?"

The hall shook again. Behind the statue of Cleese, the dark wall actually made a creaking sound. Some bricks protruded from the wall in the tremor, and fell from the wall with a sudden crash.

Brando watched helplessly as a cracking sound was heard, and a several-meter-long hole opened in the wall, as if something was behind the wall, ready to break out.

Queen Madara glanced back, then turned around as normal: "Are you really going to discuss this issue with me here?"

"But..." Brando hesitated.

"Let's go, I don't have time to talk to you. You are no longer a child, Mr. Earl," Queen Madara replied coldly: "When I handed the mercury staff to you, did I ever talk so much nonsense?

?”

Brando was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that this seemed to be the case. Although he had always regarded Her Majesty the Queen as an enemy, the other party seemed to have never done anything against him, except for issuing such an order on the battlefield.

Except, but the final result was still beyond his expectation.

He glanced at Her Majesty the Queen and then nodded silently: "I hope your explanation satisfies me."

After speaking, he looked around, taking in all the scenes in this dilapidated hall. At this moment, he had a hunch in his heart that maybe the scene that was staged here today was not limited to this Holy City of the Dead.

But it doesn't matter, he can wait for Her Majesty the Queen's explanation.

With that said, he turned around and left the hall with Andrea and Delphine. The undead lords wanted to stop them, but before they could get close, they were pushed away by an invisible force and crashed into the hall.

There was a commotion among the group of believers.

When the expressionless Philip saw this, he looked at Queen Madala, who ignored her and just nodded silently, and the officiant immediately followed her.

The hall was still trembling with vibrations. From time to time, sand and stones fell from the dome of the temple. All the believers were trembling with fear. They looked at Brando and the three people walking in the center of the hall with fear and envy. They just wanted to leave at this moment.

It's them.

The Sanctuary of the Dead is in the core area of ​​the Temple of the Dead Moon. A place like this is often a holy place for meditation in a temple. Delphine happened to have been to that place in the past few days. She gestured to Bu as she walked.

Lando, said there might be something going on there.

There was a long corridor outside the temple. Brando looked back and saw that Philip hadn't followed for a while. He waved to the latter to indicate that she didn't need to be so careful, and then asked:

"what happened?"

"When I got there a few days ago, I seemed to see the undead building something there, sir."

"what?"

"I only glanced at it from a distance, but I thought since the undead allowed me to go to that place, that thing shouldn't be important. At that time, I just thought they were repairing the interior of the temple..."

Brando frowned, but his thoughts were similar to Delphine's. Since Her Majesty the Queen is not afraid to let Delphine see it, there shouldn't be anything fishy in the Temple of Death.

yes.

However, this incident aroused the curiosity in his heart. Since Queen Madala had already made arrangements there, she must have been preparing for today's events.

The Sanctuary of the Dead is located to the north of the Temple of the Dead Moon and does not leave the inner perimeter of the temple. After passing the long corridor, you can see the main entrance of the Sanctuary. However, when Brando steps into the Sanctuary of the Dead,

For a moment, he seemed to have a faint feeling in his heart, as if he heard a shrill scream coming from the void.

He was startled for a moment, then turned around, but the dead face of Priest Philip suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Master officiant, what happened?"

"They are back, Mr. Earl." To Brando's expectation, the officiant reacted to his question and answered slowly.

"they?"

"Gods."
