City of Liberty, Holy Light Square...in front of the Statue of the Saint of Liberty.
The statue is already half-destroyed. Most of it collapsed when the [Saint] fell and the world cried.
People haven't had time to clean up yet, and at this time... it's even less likely that anyone is cleaning up, and only a cordon is left guarding the scene.
At this time, a young man and another man whose whole body was wrapped in gauze were approaching the half-ruined statue of the saint.
Livar, and the guy he brought out from the hospital with burns all over his body.
This guy is suspicious, and seems to be related to several cases of self-immolation that have occurred in the Free City. More importantly, this guy is the person that President Bailang of [City of Dawn] wants to kill.
If it weren't for Azaches' communication and Ludik's quick response, then this guy might have become food for the rats in the sewers of Liberty City.
"The candidate for the Holy Maiden is almost dead." Livar took a deep breath at this time. He was always paying attention to this terrible live broadcast, and the calmness he had always been proud of was now at its limit, "You What is your purpose in bringing me here?"
He intuitively believed in this suspicious guy, otherwise he should be at the venue of the Holy Maiden Ceremony now and trying to rescue him.
[Robert] is the name of this guy with burns all over his body. At least, according to Asaches’ information, this guy is called Robert.
Ludik's business is very big, even in [City of Dawn] there are many industries, so Ludik's intelligence network is also quite developed. As Ludik's only personal secretary, Livar has the ability to mobilize the intelligence network at will power.
He easily found out that there was indeed a man named Robert among President Balam's bodyguards.
But Livar had a hunch that this seriously injured guy didn't seem to be the real Robert... He might just have taken up this name by chance.
"Even if you go to the venue, what can you do?"
[Robert] turned around, only a pair of eyes were exposed on his face, the rest of his face was covered with bandages and gauze, and there were even many places stained with blood.
He was severely burned, bleeding profusely, and there were many wounds on his body that had been bitten by rats... He had almost countless wounds all over his body. The reason why he could be saved from such injuries was entirely because of Ludik's special ability.
But Ludick was afraid of pain, and the other party was obviously not a cute girl, so the rescue was limited, just to bring the other party back from the brink of death... The injury was still shocking.
But [Robert] persisted all the way here without pausing or showing even a hint of discomfort due to pain.
Levi couldn't help but feel shocked by this guy's strong willpower.
"What do you mean by this?"
[Robert] said calmly: "Have you seen those black crosses above the ceremony venue? Such a big change has happened in the Free City. Even the Archangel [St. John] has been killed. Can't the saints of the seven capitals not see it? ?”
"They can't be invisible." Livar shook his head, "Could it be..."
"Obviously, there are only two situations." [Robert] said solemnly: "One is that they know it, but they can't do anything. The other is that they were deceived by something. From their perspective, everything in the Free City is still normal."
Livar's expression suddenly changed, "How could that be!"
"Unbelievable?" [Robert] said: "But this is what is happening, and no matter which possibility it is, it is extremely bad... and this still happened during the Good Friday ceremony. So, what is contained in this
How many conspiracies are there, do you dare to think about them?"
Livar gritted his teeth: "So, why did you bring me here?"
"Because I need a guy with faith." [Robert] said calmly: "Pray, pray with your greatest piety in front of the statue of Saint Liberty."
Livar frowned subconsciously. He firmly believed that prayer is an act from the heart, spontaneous, not forced... [Robert], at this time, he had a strong compulsion.
Such prayers are soulless.
[Robert] said: "Levar, I know you, the people around Ludick...you don't have to worry about how I know you, but I believe in your beliefs. Compared with Ludick, who is too scheming,
You need to be more pure...and more importantly, you are also a bloodline of the saint family."
Livar's expression changed slightly before, but now his expression changed dramatically.
[Robert] said: "Don't be nervous. It's not that I investigated you intentionally. It's just that for some reason, I'm more concerned about the Saint's family... Not many people know that you are the illegitimate child of the Saint's mother family.
Know."
"Aren't you just one?" Livar sneered.
[Robert] said: "I can't explain my origin to you. I don't even exist now... You can choose not to trust me, but before that, you answer me a question first. Do you want to save me?"
Free City?”
"Why me." Levi asked with a frown.
"Because I can't find a more suitable one." [Robert] sighed, "Time does not allow it, and my current state does not allow it...the actual situation does not allow it. Among the descendants of the saint family, A
Sachs, Ludik, and Isabel are all trapped now, and only you are left."
Leval remained silent.
[Robert] said again: "Even if you feel that you cannot bear the weight of saving the City of Freedom, what about Ludick? The one who pulled you back from the edge of death and gave you a new life, apart from being unable to clear your name,
What about Ludik, who has never disliked your status as an illegitimate child from beginning to end, and even gave you a share of his love as an elder brother? Did you...originally intend to save him?"
"What should I do?" Livar raised his head.
"I said it." [Robert] pointed to the half-destroyed statue of the Saint of Liberty, "Pray with your greatest piety. As long as you firmly believe, you can meet the source of the legend... On the other side of time and space, you will listen
to her voice."
He seemed to have heard similar words somewhere... It was the maid next to the young man named Luo!
She once said something similar.
"I pray because I believe in the Saint of Liberty, not for anyone else." Livar nodded expressionlessly, walked directly to the half-destroyed statue of the Saint of Liberty, and made a standard prayer posture like a textbook.
A hazy brilliance began to appear on Livar's body, and it was very pure.
"Can I catch up..." [Robert] muttered to himself at this time.
He...his legend has disappeared, and he has even become a person without a name. Even if it is [Robert], it is just a name that has been mistakenly recognized.
Today, he is no longer the prince of light in heaven, nor the archangel who suppresses all realms... He is just a broken body with a soul that is gradually lost, that's all.
He doesn't even know how long he can stay awake. Perhaps soon, even he himself will completely forget all this...completely breaking with his former legendary identity.
He saw how terrifying that man was. The [store owner] who had once been the archangel of the Kingdom of Heaven was reduced to such a situation with just one sentence... The higher-ups of the Kingdom of Heaven had always known that the [store] was terrifying, but
I only know how scary it is, I have never experienced it myself.
Now, after he experienced it for real, he truly understood why [He] had to always fulfill the contents of the contract, and even hand over the Free Saint as a last resort...
With his thoughts retracted, [Robert] looked at Livar's prayer calmly, although he was anxious.
The quality of Livar's wish is quite high, even among high-level petitioners, it is extremely outstanding... If Livar can keep it up, he may even be able to achieve [Saint] in the future.
However, the black cross hovering over the Holy Maiden Ceremony venue seemed to be moving, and the sky above the Free City suddenly changed color.
[Robert] finally couldn't keep calm, "Is it too late..."
At this moment, a golden pattern quietly emerged from the base of the half-destroyed Statue of the Saint of Liberty. [Robert]'s eyes brightened, and he ignored the wounds on his body and walked directly to the base with a big movement.
, reach out and touch.
As Livar's power of wish became stronger and stronger, there were as many as three golden patterns appearing on the base of the statue.
"That's enough!" [Robert] shouted in a deep voice at this time.
Livar did not stop completely. It was not until he completed a round of prayer that he slowly opened his eyes. When he opened his eyes, the base of the statue of the Saint of Liberty had been opened, revealing a figure that had never been seen before.
Recorded entrance.
"This is..." Levi was shocked.
There is actually another entrance to the base of the saint's statue. More importantly, [Robert], as a guy from a non-free city, how did he know about it?
"Hurry!" [Robert]'s eyes were suddenly anxious at this moment, "I hope I can catch up!"
Livar was suddenly startled, and looked in the direction of the Holy Maiden Ceremony venue as if he was feeling something. He saw a black light falling from the sky... The wind in the entire Free City suddenly became different.
"Mortal, worship me!"
Livar's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he felt extremely uncomfortable. He even shed tears uncontrollably, and looked at a figure gradually emerging in the dark light.
He wanted to get in front of this figure, he wanted to crawl at its feet...
But a brutal force directly brought Livar back to reality. When he came back to his senses, he had been pulled into the entrance of the statue's base by [Robert].
"That's not the saint you should believe in!" [Robert] said in a deep voice at this time, "What you should really believe in is here!"
here?
…
…
Free City, [Rose Mansion]... a certain guest room.
The girl got up with a splitting headache. She felt weak all over her body. She wanted to leave, but she rolled under the bed. It was as if there were countless people shouting in her ears all the time.
This caused great pain to the girl's already weak spirit.
She almost crawled to reach the door of the room, and with all her strength, she successfully opened the door.
She wanted to shout, but she was so flustered at this moment... She didn't even know what was happening, but something was vaguely calling her.
Everything inside [Rose Mansion] does not make the girl feel strange... However, the world outside makes her extremely strange.
The girl collapsed on the floor again.
She knew that this was no longer the village she was familiar with.
"Father...Miss Asman...and..." the girl murmured to herself: "Luo...where are you..."
She is Jeanne Darc.
At this time, her whole body was numb and weak... This situation was just like the prey she usually caught with anesthesia during hunting.
She slapped the floor with her palms with difficulty, hoping that someone would notice that she had woken up... However, the [Rose Mansion] was completely silent at this time, and no one came.
The girl Jeanne had no choice but to stop slapping the floor, gritted her teeth, and got up again with difficulty.
Boom, boom, boom!
"This is……"
The sound came from the floor below, and it started to continue... The girl Jeanne was startled, and then walked along the sound of "dong dong".
Not long after, the door to the basement that was hidden under the corridor slowly opened...the girl Jeanne walked into the dark basement.
There seemed to be a cage as tall as a man in front of him, which was covered with a black cloth... The sound came from inside.
The girl hesitated for a moment, but her brave and decisive character still drove her to lift the black cloth!
Snapped!
Something crashed into the cage at this moment. The girl Jeanne took a closer look... What she saw was a little one as small as a baby, but flying like an elf in the legend, with a chubby face.
Guy.
"It's you...calling me..." The girl looked at the elf in the cage and murmured subconsciously.
I saw the little guy in the cage making gestures quickly in the air. Finally, he gave up the gesture and slowly stretched out a finger.
The girl Jeannette also stretched out her finger at this moment as if her heart was touched.
The moment the two fingers touched together, countless words poured into the girl's spirit... After a while, the girl Jeanne seemed to have been drained of her little physical strength, and she fell for a moment.
sit on the floor.
"How..." The girl Jeanne's face was now full of fear, uneasiness and disbelief, "I am... I just... can't be like this... no way..."
So many words poured into her mind, and it would take some time for her to digest them. However, among the many messy messages, the only one made her almost collapse.
