Act79 Past Endings
Gross, Matthew, and Kenneth came to the church.
In the quiet prayer room, the faint glow of crystal lamps shone on the back of Lady Askia, who was not tall but had a well-proportioned body that was quite comfortable to look at—led by a priest, Matthew stood outside the door, and the lady interrupted her prayer and turned around.
Then, Gross saw this somewhat familiar face—
Ensada's high-ranking priest, Lady Askia, was not known for her beauty, but her serene and calm demeanor was incomparable to that of others, and by virtue of the memory in his head, Gross still recognized this lady, but this lady could not have an impression of him at all.
He was no longer "him", and Gross had come to Ensada for the first time in his life from the Norgo countryside - Matthew in front of him glanced at the lady as if he wanted to speak, but the woman went straight to the three of them, and as soon as she looked up, she met Gross's eyes.
"Celestial Radiance, Lady Esquea."
Gross greeted him as if he were familiar, and he smiled and saluted—
Even though the situation was urgent, he still maintained the necessary courtesy to the lady. In her previous life, the priest in the game, Askia, was a gentle and kind woman, at least, she fully displayed these traits when treating the player's injuries and charging fees.
Enzada's church is a standard supply point in the game, and Lady Esquea is the most important figure in the church. In the plot line of "Rebellion of Ambition", there are many tasks related to this lady -
On the way to the church, the knight Matthew had already told him about Count Lambert's fall into the undead, and had told him that Esquea had solid evidence of these things.
"As a knight, it is my duty to be loyal to my lord, but if I am to obey the orders of an evil undead, it is definitely an unacceptable thing."
Matthew said. And the knight Kenneth, when Matthew made a statement, he also nodded solemnly.
"Ensada should not fall into the hands of the undead."
His gaze communicated silently, and Matthew's gaze at Lady Esquea revealed a hint of supation—
In fact, when Matthew saw the contents of the image stone, he felt as if something was shattering inside him. The knight lost his lord, like a ship sailing in the sea lost its lighthouse, and from that moment his path was already disoriented.
"Follow me."
Of the three people who came to the church, Gross was the only complete stranger - the priest Esquea did not ask for his name or ask about his identity, as if she had a natural trust in the young man, she did not shy away from taking them to the interior of the church.
Once again, the image on the stone appeared in the air.
Matthew and Kenneth had already seen each other, but when they saw the undead lord again, their emotions inevitably became agitated, and they were silent, but they couldn't help but make a slight sound in their throats, like the roar of a beast after it was wounded, like a cold wind whining through a canyon—
Gross stared at the illusionary image in front of him without blinking, he saw Count Lambert's appearance as a death knight, he saw the wounded Templars who were still fighting, and he even recognized the scene as a corner of the garden inside the Lord's palace in Enzada.
There was no doubt about the facts, the contents of the image stone could not be faked, and Gross knew this for a long time - the ever-changing illusion only lasted for more than ten seconds at most, but Gross was enough to confirm a lot of information.
"Count Lambert", or the death knight he just saw, has the strength of the Awakening High Order!
It's not an awakening high-level that is forcibly promoted by special means like "Permafrost Rose" Notson, but a real awakening high-level powerhouse!
Eventually, the illusion in the air quietly burst like a giant bubble.
It's over.
But it's just getting started.
Gross turned around, and at this time he already had some vague lines of what was happening in Ensada - the current situation was quite different from the previous game's plot line, and the most incredible thing for him was that at the end of February of the year of the Red Moon, Count Lambert, the lord of Ensada, turned into a powerful undead.
What's going on here?
Gross vividly remembers the stories he went through, in which Count Locke Lambert of the Kingdom lived until the last day of the "Rebellion of Ambitions", when his despicable act of colluding with the undead was completely exposed, and was wiped out by the forces of the players, nobles, and the church.
The final plot ending of "Rebellion of Ambitions" in the game CG is like this:
In the empty city lord's mansion, the ambitious Locke Lambert finally realized his failure, carefully arranged his clothes, combed his hair meticulously, and slowly walked into his study alone. His description was withered and his eyes were dull, but he went directly to the window and opened the dark green patterned curtains, and took advantage of the last sunset under the twilight, he came to the bookcase, and looked carefully at the stacks of old and yellowed letters—
It was a letter from his young man who was in love with his wife, and the letter that appeared in the camera was only a very plain line: Locke, who had recently returned home, had gained a little weight due to the excessive pampering of his father and mother. Excuse me, will you hate me from now on?
"No, it won't."
Locke Lambert gripped the letter with ten fingers and muttered. At the same moment, a large number of figures poured into the city lord's mansion, it was the nobles and the church alliance who had come to crusade against him, he heard the noise, he couldn't help laughing, took a long sword from the wall, and walked out with a straight posture.
Swords.
The garden was no longer as quiet and beautiful as it had been, and at last a sharp sword pierced his chest from behind, and he finally hung his haughty head and fell to his knees, looking at a handful of dirt in the flowerbed, where the letter that had been hidden in his bosom had fallen silently.
Tears moistened his eyes.
But he has no regrets in his heart, because he knows that he has no tomorrow.
……
The final ending of the game about Count Rock Lambert CG is beautiful, and it shocked almost every player who experienced the "Chaos of Ambition" at the time - this unruly count originally appeared as a standard villain, but judging from his final ending, he looks like a down-and-out hero who has come to an end.
