Chapter 19

In the face of a desperate situation, people either accept their fate, be knocked down by fate, and finally fall into the appearance of a person who does not look like a ghost or a ghost; or a Jedi counterattack, stimulate their potential, play a good role, defeat the strong enemy in one fell swoop, and then ascend to the ranks of the strong men of the times.

The former is easy and anyone can do it if they want to give up. But the former glory and then ended up in a desolate and miserable state, and there is a sense of bitterness. In the end, he could only die quietly in a corner forgotten by everyone, achieving a tragedy that is embarrassing.

The latter is a fight, and the spirit is highly tense all day. If you are slack and sloppy, you may be crushed by the strong, and you will never have the opportunity to see the sunset.

Henry Grett has the blood of the Dragon Knight in his veins, and he is generally fierce in the face of powerful enemies.

Seeing that Lillian was frightened by her words and broke out in a cold sweat, Gretel stepped forward with a knightly demeanor, held the long sword in her hand again, and gently wiped the sweat from Lillian's head.

"Don't worry, with me by your side, we can overcome even the biggest difficulties. After listening to what I told you before, either you feel that there is no hope of recovering the country, or you are still afraid. But you don't have to worry about that, because I'm going to tell you about our strategy. You may be able to realize that our situation is not as bad as you think. ā€

Gretel looked at Lilian's face a little calmer, and began to speak, "Our enemy does seem to be strong, because he is a strong man who has dominated several eras. But Charlie, our direct enemy, is not. For a country, the cooperation of those who are strong has always been for the sake of profit, and nothing else. I don't know what kind of contract Charlie and Dermont Ogant made, but I do know that as long as the opponent is not alone, their relationship can be divided. As soon as the point of interest in their cooperation disappears, it is not impossible for us to bring Demont Organera to our side. ā€

"Are we going to work with the devil? If this kind of thing is really done, what difference will we have from that Charlie?" Lilian looked at Gretel, a little reluctant in her tone.

"It seems that you are still a devout Celestial Cultist, and your dislike for demons is so deep. Lillian, after all, we are from two different countries, and I can understand the cultural differences. My ancestor, the first Duke of Gretel, once followed his teacher, the first generation of the Celestial Pope, to travel north and south, and also slay demons everywhere and made great achievements. In the end, my ancestors also followed the decree of the first pope before leaving the Celestial Cult ......"

"I don't quite understand, Gretel. Didn't your ancestors be driven out by the first pope~ from the Celestial God Cult? Why do you say that he left the Celestial God Cult on the orders of the first pope, I don't understand. Anne asked cautiously, listening in a daze.

"The version you're talking about is what God Says. The book itself is a very funny book, that is, those devout believers read it as if it were a pearl of words. But then again, I don't know exactly what the truth is. After all, after all, so much time has passed, and I am afraid that only the legendary Celestial God Cult holy relic is the original "Divine Sayings" that has been recorded in the truth! The version I heard was a secret information that had been circulating within our Grand Duke Gretel. Now that so much time has passed, it's not impossible for me to tell you about it. Gretel plunged his sword into the dirt, his mind seemingly caught in a distant time and space.

"In our family legend, the first Duke of Glitter was a man who valued love and righteousness and endured humiliation. At that time, he was ordered by the first Pope to slay the strongest dragon in the world, and without any hesitation, he risked almost impossible success. As an ordinary person, he fought with the evil dragon for three days and three nights, and was finally knocked to the ground by the evil dragon and could not move. At the last moment when the evil dragon killed his old man, his old man suddenly woke up, had an epiphany of the true meaning of the world, and created the Holy Sword Technique to turn defeat into victory and defeat the evil dragon. If it weren't for that timely epiphany, I'm afraid there would be no current Heavenly Dragon Kingdom, and there would be no Holy Sword Technique, a combat skill that can stand shoulder to shoulder with magic. Thinking back to the heroic deeds of his ancestors, Gretel's heart was surging.

"After listening to your description, I seem to understand a lot of things. Anne looked at Gretel with a serious look in her eyes. "Henry, I want to ask you something, can you tell me why your ancestors went to war with the Celestial God Cult later?"

Glitter smiled and looked at the sword in his hand.

"Many people in the Celestial God Cult have described the first pope as a person who does not eat the fireworks of the world, and has engaged in a huge god-making movement. I've studied "God Says" carefully, and the artificiality of that book is very obvious, and the target is also very clearly directed. Originally, the first pope founded the Celestial God Cult in order to purify the hearts of the people, guide most people to turn evil from good, and always have a sense of awe and gratitude in their hearts. But look at what has become of the Celestial Cult today. Of course, I'm not saying that there are no pure followers in the Celestial Cult who truly understand the teachings of the Celestial Cult. It's just that I feel that most of the believers have been taken advantage of and become stupid pawns. In order to spread more quickly, the followers of the Celestial Cult began to slaughter those they called demons. And what kind of people are these demons? Most of the demons are just against the Celestial God Cult, and have not done anything really harmful. As she spoke, Glitter stopped her explanation, and Lillian's cheeks were flushed with anger, and she could see that she was trying to restrain her emotions.

"Okay! I won't say anything about the teachings of the Celestial Cult. lest Lillian eat me in a moment. Smiling awkwardly, Glitter finally turned to Annie's question: "My ancestor Grett saw a weakness in the evil dragon at a critical moment, and finally killed the evil dragon with the holy sword technique of Edgeworth. But unfortunately, when the dragon died, the blood gushed out in large quantities, spraying my ancestor's body, and at that time, he was panting and accidentally drank a little of the dragon's blood, so he was more or less affected by the dragon. ā€

"Yes, so the "God Said" record is not bad, saying that your ancestors bathed in dragon blood, and then ......" Lilian, whose cheeks were flushed, did not say the second half of the sentence, as if she had thought of something.

"I can't help it if you think so! My ancestor was a great man, I'm sure of that. Because of the influence of the dragon, evil thoughts began to take root in my ancestors' bodies. As the most devout of the Celestials, this is a terrible thing. At that time, my ancestors did not dare to return to the Celestial God Cult immediately, but planned to find a place to hide and completely remove the evil thoughts from their bodies. Gretel seemed a little sad when he said it, "Speaking of which, the first pope was indeed a very great person. No sooner had the battle with the dragon ended than the Pope arrived on the scene and used his great mana to heal my ancestors' wounds. However, even a strong man like the first Pope could not completely wash away the influence of the evil dragon on my ancestors. Henry Grett paused abruptly as he spoke, and seemed very sentimental after a pause. "That's why when the first pope went to fight Dermont Ogent, my ancestors did the Celestial Cult tragedy that shocked the world. ā€

"So your ancestors finally broke away from the Celestial God Sect and established the Celestial Dragon Kingdom?" Anne couldn't help but feel emotionally filled when she heard this tragic legend.

"My ancestors, on their deathbed, were deeply ashamed of the Celestial Cult tragedy. But he also said one thing, which is very different from what is recorded in "God Says". Glitter looked at Lilian and Anne and said, "The first Pope knew that the tragedy was not my ancestor's intention, so he planned to keep my ancestor in the Celestial Cult. But my ancestors felt guilty and wanted to die to atone for their sins. It's just that at that time, he already had the power of a dragon, and his whole body was as hard as iron, and he couldn't succeed in committing suicide. So, he decided to leave the Celestial God Cult and find a place to die alone. The first pope saw him pitiful and gave him a new task, which was to form a secular state to fight evil with evil. ā€

"Okay! I see, but I have a feeling that most of what you're saying is the opposite of "God Says." Or maybe you feel that "God Says" is unjustly written, tarnishing the sage of your ancestors, but this book is not as unreadable as you said before!" Lillian's face gradually calmed down, and her tone was slightly relaxed.

"Let you talk about it, the topic is off track. I'm telling you so much, I just hope you don't believe in the Celestial God Cult too much, and you don't need to be so annoying about demons. Gretel's face was serious. "We are the proprietors of a country, not missionaries, and you cannot put the interests of the country behind and do things that have no practical value just because you believe in your own religion. After Gretel said this, she felt like Lillian hadn't heard it.

"Forget it, I don't play the piano to the cow anymore. I would like to tell you something that is of practical significance. The reason why this time I asked you to take a turn from the gallows and create the illusion that you have been robbed is actually the main purpose to explain to Demont Ogant and them that our Celestial Dragon Kingdom is not a hostile relationship with them. For the next step, we will either cooperate with them or fight to leave a room for maneuver. lest someone get caught by someone and start a war directly. Gretel sighed and sighed: "No way, we don't have the strength to fight directly with others now." If Durmont Ogent comes, we'll be finished. ā€

As he was talking, Grett noticed that the black dragon behind him was arching himself, and when he turned around, Grett found that the black dragon was looking at the sky.

In the sky, the blue sky seems to have been torn open. What is the situation!
