Chapter 30: The Ring of the Scourge
Lin Yu and Lilith, taking advantage of the unicorn's tantrum and wreaking havoc, quietly fled to the entrance corridor of the East Palace Annex.
"It's here!" Lilith whispered, and the two of them used invisibility again, fleeing their figures.
Due to the unicorn's prowess, the Church of Reims has no way to muster enough manpower to maintain the anti-stealth barrier throughout the palace.
Lin Yu looked around, the scale of the East Palace Courtyard was about the same size as the courtyard where Lilith lived before, but now the original bright yellow walls of the entire courtyard were painted white, and there were many more white curtains, arranging the entire courtyard like a solemn church, and in the middle of the courtyard, there was also a one-person high cross.
"Cross?" Lin Yu scratched his little head, "Isn't that a Christian relic?"
"The cross is a sacred relic of the church of Reims. Lilith looked at the former courtyard being converted into a church, and was a little angry, and said angrily, "The Holy See of Reims believes in the god of light, and they like white things, because they firmly believe that white is the color of light. ”
"That's why the people of the Holy See of Reims paint it white and hang white curtains around it whenever they go to a place. ”
Lin Yu observed for a while, and found that there was no one guarding here, so he asked Lilith, "How can we find the young lady of the elf clan?"
Lilith suggested: "The East Palace Courtyard is not a big place, it is mainly divided into the main courtyard and the side courtyard, it is better for us to find it separately and then gather here when we return to it." ”
"Okay, then I'll go to the main courtyard, and the young lady will go to the side hall!" Lin Yu thought about it for a while, in order to save time at the moment, this is a good idea, in his opinion, the probability of someone in the main courtyard will be greater.
"But young lady should pay attention to safety, remember to run away if you can't beat it, brother, I will come to save you!"
"Well, so are you!" Lilith whispered.
At that moment, the two didn't say much, and acted separately.
Lin Yu changed his shoes back to the light boots that walked without sound, and he walked very cautiously with every step here, and even controlled his speed and walked slowly, so as not to bring a light breeze when he walked.
Finally, Lin Yu touched the door of the main courtyard, and the door was not closed, but completely opened.
He leaned in slightly, and in the room separated by a wall, there were indeed people inside!
Inside the main hall, all the previous furnishings have been emptied, and in the center is a three-meter-high white statue, which is a statue of a man crucified!
"The Crucifixion?" Lin Yu remembered the religious scenes he had seen in his previous life, and found that the statue in front of him was exactly the same as what he had seen in his previous life.
On the left hand side of the statue, there is also a cross, and at the same time, a slim girl is tied to the cross.
"Elven lady, so ...... "Lin Yu still thought that Lilith's best friend of the elven clan should be a pure and kind little beauty, but the young lady in front of her, who was tied to the cross, lazily relaxed her body and let the rope that tied her hands and feet hang herself.
She had a good countenance, slouched with her little mouth open, yawning, revealing her neat, white teeth.
Her ears are human and her hair is jet-black shawl.
She was wearing a cyan gauze dress, under the green clothes, the curves on her body were exposed, and she seemed to have a trace of greenness, but her posture was charming.
Lin Yu dared to swear that if the otaku in his previous life saw this graceful figure, he would be afraid that he would not be able to help but run to open the browser of the computer, enter a string of mysterious codes, and enter the sage mode.
It's just that in front of this elven girl, there is a man with a white hood standing, staring at the spring light in front of him.
"Ha-" The elven girl yawned again, "You've locked me up for almost three days, and you won't let me go?"
"Miss, please respect yourself!" the man coughed lightly, "The elves are proficient in all kinds of natural magic, but I'm afraid that if I don't pay attention to you, I will accidentally escape." ”
"Then you don't have to keep staring at my body!" the elven lady twisted her body, and then looked at the man's abdomen, "Aren't you uncomfortable?"
The man smiled and said, "I have been inspired by the God of Light, and I have already let go of the seven deadly sins in my heart. ”
"When the hell did you release me, I've been tied up for so long. ”
"As long as Miss tells me how to unlock the seal of the 'Scourge Ring', we will let you go. ”
"What ring? I don't know!"
"Miss, didn't you come here to visit Princess Lilith for this 'Scourge Ring'? Don't tell me, Miss really just wants to catch up with the princess!"
"Hmph! Human beings are really hypocritical!" "The elven lady still stiffened her body and stretched her waist with her hands and feet tied, creating a very beautiful curve, "A Holy See who believes in the God of Light actually wants to open and use the 'Divine Disaster Ring' in the depths of darkness!"
The man with the white hood was still calm, "The high-ranking elf clan to which the young lady belongs, isn't it also willing to fall into the ground and want to get the relics of the Immortal Bone King? ”
"Hehe!" Miss Elven sneered and mocked, "Your Reims Empire, isn't it the Austro-Hungarian Empire that attacked for the sake of this 'Scourge Ring'? And Leo Karl's ring, you also want to get it, right?
"Our superior elven clan has understood this truth since we were defeated in this filthy mortal world, if we are still deceived by you hypocritical humans, it will really be more than a thousand years in vain!"
The man was silent for a moment and said, "At least on the issue of the North, our interests are aligned. ”
"The goal of our high-ranking elven clan is to return to the divine realm, and as for the issue of the lower realm, we are not interested in getting involved. The elven girl let out another long yawn.
"When the Day of Judgment comes, no one in the world will escape judgment, and we will have to obey. The man turned his head and looked reverently at the statue of the cross in the main hall.
"The superior elves will always be the judges, not the ones to be judged!" the elven woman turned her head and ignored the man, "You either let me go, or let me sleep well, I'm not in the mood to negotiate terms with you humans, upset!"
It turned out that the reason why the Reims Empire suddenly attacked Austria-Hungary was only for a ring. For the sake of a ring, let the war on the mainland frenzy, displace the people, and stain the battlefield with the blood of the soldiers.
It was just for a ring that he put his most distressed Xiaohong on the line for this!
