Chapter 1885: The Virgin of Steel (3)

"Lord Apostle!" "Lord Gabriel!" "Lord Sage in the Stone!"

Before Arthur could say anything, the group shouted in unison, each with its own name, as if they had different beliefs from different religions from all over the world, but had the same object of worship. Vertices M. updates the fastest

"You must be kidding me...... The Knight King couldn't help muttering. Of course, his muttering was so quiet that only the people around him could hear him, and there was no one else around him but Joey.

Hearing Arthur complain like this, Joey, who was next to him, rolled his eyes smartly, but did not say anything.

Arthur was already annoyed at the time, but he was now a guest of the Melson Brotherhood, and he had a request for it. He reluctantly sat down at the extra-long dining table and dined with the group of scholars, merchants, and officials.

The rest of the dinner time was nothing short of tormenting. Arthur himself was the king of Great Britain (900 years ago), and as a king, he did have to attend various public occasions from time to time, and he should be able to cope with such dinners with ease. However, attending a banquet as a king is a completely different thing from attending a banquet in his current special capacity. He was now not treated as the king of a nation, but as an idol of some kind of religion, or as an envoy of God. So when the Melson Brotherhood began to ask all sorts of questions of a nonsensical religious nature, King Arthur couldn't help but feel quite stressed.

Not to mention the fact that the Melson Brotherhood is an organization made up of multi-faith people (and even atheists) and a mixture of forces. These people all believe in different gods, so how can they reach a consensus on a certain religious issue?

"Does God really exist?" "What does God look like?" "Where did the Sage come from?" "Did the Sage come to mortal earth with any special mission to complete?"

A whole bunch of questions were asked one after another. Arthur didn't want to answer.

But Arthur, who listened to these people asking questions while eating, knew that these people would not shut up if he didn't say anything. So he put down the knife and fork in his hand and suddenly said:

"Listen. I know you have a myriad of questions, and I can't answer them all. Well, then, I'll just tell you what I know. Right or wrong, it's up to you to judge.

First of all, there is indeed a God in your world.

What he looks like, I can't say.

What is he capable of, I can't say.

What he intends to do, I can't say.

There are also devils in this world------ devils are vicious, cunning, and eager to prove how right their claims are.

As far as I know, this world is a game of war between gods and demons.

The devil believes that human nature is evil, greedy, and incorrigible. He made a bet with God that God's creations were not so perfect and that they had to be destroyed.

As long as they are given free will, they will fall into darkness------ even though they are born good and taught to always walk the path of goodness.

God, on the other hand, believes that there are truly good people in the world. These people, no matter how they are influenced by the outside world, will eventually be able to control themselves. Even in the last moments of their lives, these people were able to hold on to their goodness.

Whether a person with free will is good or evil needs to be proved by experiments.

To prove the devil wrong, God allowed the gamble to exist.

Our world will go from prosperity to destruction.

Until the last moment before the destruction of the world, the devil will use all kinds of means to tempt people, deceive people, and make people fall.

And God does nothing, can do nothing. The condition for starting this 'fair' gamble is precisely [God cannot use his power to interfere with people who have free will].

Ladies and gentlemen, you may be faced with a choice before the final moment comes. Do ------ always maintain their conscience and choose the right path of goodness? Or are they driven by all kinds of coercion and temptation to degenerate into demons in order to survive?

The choice is always yours, and not even God has the right to interfere.

And your choices will affect the outcome of this game.

Your choice may lead to the ultimate victory of the devil and to prove to God that man is so wicked, greedy, and irretrievable in nature.

So, when the appointed moment comes, how will you choose?

So, the men fell silent and never asked any more questions. It wasn't that they didn't have more questions to ask Arthur, it was simply that the biggest question Arthur had left behind had left them pondering.

After speaking, Arthur finished his dinner and stood up from the table: "Ladies and gentlemen, I will be absent first. Have a nice evening. ＂

He strode out of the dining hall without looking back. Just leave those people to think as they are, Arthur thinks it's best.

"What a wonderful speech. While Arthur walked in front, Joey followed behind.

"I just made it up so they didn't bother me anymore. Arthur said. Although everything he said was very similar to the previous statements of the mysterious old man J. Of course, there is also a part to add fuel to the fire, in order to make those descriptions more dramatic, to be able to yell at the group of Melson Brotherhood.

"Yes. That's not bad either. Joey didn't say anything, but replied casually, "Do you want to take a shower and change your clothes after dinner, or go and have some fun?" Whether it's a bathhouse or a recreational setting, there are them in this base, and I can lead the way." ＂

"That kind of thing is exempt. Arthur turned his head and gave Joey a blank look, "It's more reliable for you to take me to get a few weapons." I know you can't open your treasure vault without a key, but there must be some other way to get a few weapons besides the treasure vault, right?"

"Of course, there are ordinary weapons, and the storehouses are just more valuable treasures. Joy said, "Please come with me, Lord Aslan." The armory is over here. ＂

With that, Joey ran to the front in a few small steps, turning right at the end of the corridor in front of him. Arthur's pace was actually quite fast, and he was in a hurry to escape from the Brotherhood's group of people who were constantly questioning him, so he walked fast. Unexpectedly, Joey Zust was a child who was more dexterous and agile than Arthur now, and he surpassed Arthur so easily.

"Hmph. Although a little unhappy, Arthur silently chased after him.

The Brotherhood's base built inside the hollowed-out cliff is not very large, and if it is too large, it will not achieve its purpose of concealment. Moreover, the Brotherhood of Melson is essentially a group of scholars, they are not combatants, and the armory in this base is certainly not the size of a regular military base.

In fact, this small room, illuminated by a dozen oil lamps and less than thirty feet square, is estimated to contain no more than a hundred weapons. Broken copper and iron are not counted, but they are indeed some ordinary iron without the slightest enchantment, and the workmanship is not even exquisite.

The civilization of light in this world is very backward, and people still use the most primitive forging furnaces to forge iron ingots into weapons, and there is no process of strengthening additional weapons during this period. Arthur pondered as he picked up a short sword that was a little rough and the blade had not been fully opened. Its power is really not flattering, it is estimated that the armor on the opposite side is a little thicker, and this short sword can't be cut.

"Lord Aslan?" Joy asked curiously, looking at Arthur in a daze.

"Hmm...... It's not okay. It's okay to use it to block your opponent's attacks. Trying to use it to kill enemies is a fantasy. ＂

"Lord Aslan, might you try something heavier?" the boy asked. Asked naively.

"Well, Joey, if you think I'm some kind of sage, with innate divine powers, you'll be disappointed. Arthur smiled indifferently: "This weak body can carry a weapon that can be wielded freely, and there is basically only this kind of short sword." ＂

The handsome blonde boy raised his eyebrows in confusion: "But Lord Aslan, didn't you defeat the True Ancestor back then...... Seventh True Ancestor Van der Mian?"

"That's the power of the Holy Sword [Seraph]. [Divine] power for slaying demons. Arthur explained, "I don't know if your grandfather described the details of the battle to you and your father, but the sword was so special that it could not be wielded by brute force. ＂

"Is that so?" Joey was even more stunned, "However, when Grandpa tried to retrieve the holy sword, he said that the sword was too heavy to move. Later, he relied on some people in the Brotherhood who could use sealing techniques to seal the divine power of the Holy Sword, and he reluctantly brought it back to the Brotherhood base. ＂

"Oh. I don't find it strange at all. King Arthur replied with a calm face.

Of course. If the Holy Sword [Seraph's Sword] given to Arthur by the mysterious old man J is exactly the same as Arthur's original [King's Sword], then it uses special technology to [borrow] photons from another world into this world.

The massive amount of photons pouring out of the sword will lock the sword firmly in its original space, making it so "heavy" that it can barely be moved, and only a person with special strength and special physique like Arthur can hold that special weapon. In fact, why Arthur was able to hold his sword of kings has been a mystery that has not been fully solved since a long time ago.

Merlin did tell Arthur that because Arthur was a [Demon Being], there was a photon vacuum around his body, which would cancel out the effect of the sword, allowing the sword to be moved that should have been locked in space. But this statement itself brings another mystery: how did the photon vacuum around Arthur's body come about?

Let's not mention that. The Knight King sighed, put down the dagger, and moved on to another weapon. If the attack power of this crude short sword is not expected, then Arthur can only make up for it with other equipment and add tactical means for himself.

A good shield is very necessary. By shielding his opponent's attacks, Arthur was able to pick up the not-sharp dagger and take the opportunity to fight back, even striking a fatal blow at the enemy's vital parts.

The Knight King moved his gaze to the corner of the armory, on a small rusty shield.
