Gus was also on his way to the Tower of Judgment at this time. After leaving the valley, he had a bad precognitive dream, in which he dreamed that his lover was being burned at the stake. Although he didn’t know why he had it.
This dream, but he still returned to the old blacksmith's home after a long absence.
Two years ago, the Skeleton Knight sent them here after rescuing them. There is a fairy mine here that can temporarily shield the demons from pursuing them. It was also here that Gus recovered his body and obtained the Dragon-Slaying Great Power from the old craftsman.
Sword, and a prosthetic arm with a hidden cannon built by an old blacksmith.
There are two other people here, one is the adopted daughter of the old blacksmith, and the other is a boy who is a survivor of the Eagle Group. On the day of the etching, the boy got separated, so he did not die.
Because they were all trustworthy people, Gus safely handed over his lover to them and embarked on the road of revenge. This journey was bumpy, not only his body was scarred, but his weapons and equipment were also damaged.
After returning to the old blacksmith's house, Gus learned that his lover had disappeared, and had gone away during a walk, and it had happened not long ago.
Gus was shocked, but looking at the pitiful expression on the blacksmith's adopted daughter, who could he blame?
I could only try to recall my dream, and thought that Casca seemed to have gone to a place called the Holy Land. There was indeed a Holy Emperor nearby, and it could be reached in three days' journey.
So Gus made some simple repairs, repaired his weapons, and set off again.
At this time, the old blacksmith was almost dead, and this might be the last time he met Gus. He wanted to use his identity as an old man to make Gus give up hatred and start a new life, so as not to be blinded by hatred.
Looking at Gus's back, the old blacksmith was full of emotions. The path Gus chose was really too hard.
In order to find his lover, Gus went to the Holy Land as quickly as possible, but he still encountered various opponents on the way. During the three-day journey, he met Kusha's assassin who went deep into the border of Mitlan, and rescued him.
He met a young boy. Then he encountered the evil spirits rolling on the wheels. After the corpses in the holy land whose hands and feet were broken and tied to the wheels were possessed, they controlled the wheels and rushed over.
In just three days' journey, I encountered several groups of monsters, but none of them. However, I also gained an additional comrade, although it was of no use.
The boy who was almost stabbed to death by Kusha Scout shamelessly followed Gus. He would use the stone-throwing skill during the battle, and then he would be chased by monsters.
When Gus finally arrived at the foot of the Tower of Judgment, he found that the place had been occupied by the army, the entire Tower of Judgment was surrounded, and a battle was about to begin.
But Gus doesn't care about this. He just saves people and kills anyone who gets in his way.
"Have you ever seen a woman? She's pretty, but not smart." Gus asked people everywhere. Although his description was abstract, it was to the point. She was pretty, but a little silly.
The refugees said they had not seen it.
After asking about Lu Jia, she told Gus: "I have seen him." "Who are you to him?"
Gas was suddenly excited, grabbed Lu Jia's arm roughly, and asked: "Where is she, where is Casca?" How could he not be excited, because on the way here, he also met the Skeleton Knight, who knew that Condemned
Something big is going to happen in the Tower, and it will be in danger if Casca cannot be rescued.
Even the Skeleton Knight will come here specially, and the situation in the Tower of Judgment will definitely get out of control.
Lu Jia pointed to the Tower of Judgment: "Both she and Lian Na were captured in the tower."
Gus looked at the tower, gritted his teeth and was about to rush over, regardless of whether the tower was surrounded or not.
"Don't be stupid. Aren't you looking for death if you go now? There will be a war soon."
It was because of the war that he had to go, and Gus was worried about Casca.
Gus didn't care, but when he was approaching the army, a black horse stood in front of him. Gus took a look and saw an unknown man sizing him up on the horse.
"Master Dulan?" Lu Jia knew Dulan, because this man became close to the refugees as soon as he arrived.
"You don't have to call me Sir, just call me Dulan." Dulan got off his horse and stood in front of Gus, and found that Gus was really tall.
"Black Swordsman, I have admired your name for a long time, but I didn't expect to see you in the Tower of Judgment. Do you want to go to the Tower of Judgment?" Dulan asked knowingly.
"That's right." Gus looked at Duran warily. He was naturally wary of people like Duran. Anyone who gains great power is not a good thing, because in the process of chasing power, he will end up destroying himself by unscrupulous means.
Betrayed to the devil.
Gus has never chased power. For Gus, strength is just a by-product of suffering. Whatever doesn't kill him will make him stronger. After every suffering, as long as he stands up alive, he can become stronger.
Some. But the other people Gus met, whether they were nobles, knights, priests, or bandits, all those who actively pursued power eventually turned into villains who bullied the weak.
Because the ultimate purpose of these people needing power is to bully the weak, they naturally become villains. Originally, there was Griffith who had a great goal and wanted to use power to make the world a better place. He wanted to serve ordinary people.
People use their own power. But in the end, Griffith went further and further in the pursuit of power and gave up the bottom line. He promised to use power for ordinary people, but in the end he gained power by sacrificing ordinary people, sacrificing the good and the weak.
"Join our troops and let us bulldoze the Tower of Conviction together."
"No, I just want to save people." Gus just wants to save people and no longer wants to participate in power disputes.
"How can you rescue people from the Tower of Conviction by yourself? Let's go together. You can stay for a while. If you feel that our army is not good enough, you can leave at any time." Duran said: "You are a fierce general.
It would be a pity to go into battle to kill the enemy and not clear up the chaos in this world."
Hearing what Duran said, Gus thought of Griffith again. They both had lofty goals, but Griffith eventually became the Hand of God. This Duran would probably follow suit. This world is simply impossible.
Was changed.
"You used to be a member of the Eagle Regiment, right? I've heard of this mercenary group, and I also know the deeds of its leader Griffith. He has ideals, but no route. He still relies on the existing system of Mitlan and gets promoted through official positions.
Lord, and then relied on the authority of the King of Mitlan to change this land. This route was fundamentally wrong. In the end, Griffith obviously failed, otherwise the Eagles would not have disappeared." "The route is wrong.
, no matter how great the ideal is, it is destined to be just a tragic character. But we are different. Our ultimate goal is to achieve equality for everyone and to eradicate injustice. This is completely opposite to Griffith. He relies on the royal family.
If order is established, then this order is destined to maintain the powerful and oppress the weak as before. He does not have the courage to break the old order. He does not know that a new order can only be established on the ruins of the old order. I will use facts to prove that the Eagle Group has made a wrong line.
, and finally use everyone’s hands to achieve the goal that the Eagle Group has not achieved. If it were you, you would definitely be able to tell the difference between us and the Eagle Group.”
Gus was silent and finally accepted the invitation to stay in the army temporarily. He wanted to see if Duran really had the capital to look down on the Eagle Group. At the same time, he learned the details of Casca's capture from Lu Jia.
