Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Road to the Oscars
The Twin Axe Immortals are now like grasshoppers on bamboo sticks, completely unstoppable. It is believed that now even an ordinary soldier can easily cut off his head with a sword.
"Hmph, take it." At the command of the knight in silver armor, more than a dozen soldiers rushed forward, and they pulled the two-axe immortal from the arrows with all their hands, and then tied him with several chains thicker than his thumb.
Oscar stayed where he was, watching it all nervously, he wasn't sure if the sudden Cult Army had discovered his identity. Saiya and her few remaining mountain people gathered together, equally uneasy.
"Knight, tell me your name." The haughty knight in silver armor asked Oscar on his horse.
"Oscar."
"Oscar, you will be blessed by the gods for your heroic performance...... Well, even if you've turned into an immortal, hehe. ”
"How did you find out?" Oscar was just surprised that the other party didn't directly knife him.
"It seems that you have only recently died, and there are many things you don't know. Everyone can become immortal, and the same is true for the living. For others they may be blasphemous, but for believers in the Lord God it is a trial, a redemption and repentance for themselves. You have to understand that this is the Lord God's test for you, so you can put away your sword now? While you know who you are. ”
"I don't understand because I'm a knight and you didn't do it?"
"The Knight of the Great Solrond, you may not remember it by now. But I can tell you unequivocally that you will serve our Lord Lloyd, now and in the future, and give everything you have to Him, and He will give you the glory you deserve! ”
Oscar thought that the fanatical believer was probably mistaken, he was probably not the knight of Thor Llund, he woke up from the other side of the mountain, and then walked through it for months before he knew it. He only knew that he was a knight, and he happened to pick up a knight's armor like theirs.
Moreover, he is very disdainful of the bandit logic of this fanatical believer, the undead who do not believe in his main god will only be hunted, and the undead who believe in the main god have room for it.
However, it seemed that all the immortals were going to go somewhere, and he suddenly felt that what was the meaning of the existence of the undead, and was all this really God's will?
"Then how shall I serve my lord?" Oscar decided to follow his word.
"Of course, to go where you should be, the Far North of Sollund, where you have a mission to complete. I just want to ask you if you honor God's will? ”
Oscar believed that if he dared to say no, he might not end much better than that bundled pile of carrion.
"Of course...... But I have one more condition. ”
"Oh, let's hear it."
The Silverarmoured Knight's brisk voice showed that he was much more amused, after all, it was also a great honor to guide every believer who had become an immortal to voluntarily "accomplish" their mission. But if it is an immortal who has gone mad, whether he is a believer or not, or who is born into a nobleman, he will put him in a cage in the name of the Lord God.
"These ...... of mine Friends, they have also made an indelible contribution to the fight against the mad undead, and they are also faithful believers in the Lord God, so please give them the same gift to show your divine grace. Oscar turned to look at Saiya.
"May our God bestow God's grace." Saiya knew that they had no room to resist at all, and if it weren't for the appearance of these sect troops, I am afraid they would all have to die here today. So she led the surviving mountain people to kneel on the ground, maybe some of the mountain people were unwilling, but they still chose to believe in Saiya.
"Hahaha! It's good, it's good. I have accepted your offer, and our God will bless you. The Silver Knight laughed out loud, his passion for nothing more than to spread the glory of the Lord God to mortals!
I saw several clergymen dressed differently from knights and soldiers begin to kneel on one knee to pray and chant prayers, and then a red tape imprint composed of golden holy light appeared around them, and everyone felt that their whole bodies were surrounded by a warm power, not only ordinary people, but even the wounds on the bodies of undead people like Oscar were slowly healing.
This is the gift of the Lord God, the miracle of the Lord God.
……
Oscar was unarmed and loaded into a prison cart, presumably because the Silver Knight was afraid that he would suddenly go crazy and attack everyone, which seems to have happened. Fortunately, at least Oscar was not imprisoned by the "white fog" they inflicted on him.
And the two-axe immortal was much more miserable, he was tormented by that kind of thing almost every moment, and even became dying.
Oscar left without saying goodbye to the mountain people, and almost no one dared to approach him after knowing that he was an immortal. Except for Saiya and the fat man in Kent.
"Actually, I already knew that you were immortal, I could smell that you didn't smell alive, and you barely eat. I told Saiya about this, and I hope you don't blame her. "Kent is an honest fellow, lucky to be alive.
"I'm sorry I deceived you in the first place, but at least I have no ill will towards you. Of course, I don't blame Saiya for this, after all, she didn't sell me, I sold myself, didn't I? ”
Saiya got the gold she wanted, after all, money was nothing to the noble knights of Thor Lund, and the reward was enough for them to eat for a year and a half.
"Will you come back when you go?" After holding it for a long time, Saiya said something that she regretted.
“…… Who knows, maybe I won't be able to die in this life. It's a terrible feeling to be so tasteless about what to eat, even though I can't remember what the food tasted like. "Oscar's preface doesn't match the afterword, probably because the head of the immortal can't hold too many things.
"You're different from those monsters, I can feel it, but don't die."
"Don't die either...... Are you the first friend I ever met? Oscar thought about it and said this, maybe he won't have a chance again.
"Of course, you're the first undead friend I know."
……
They all know that the world is no longer what it used to be, just like a sailboat sailing on the sea, it will always usher in that stormy wave. Saiya and her mountain people will face this catastrophe like every ordinary person, and it will even end in a cruel end.
Oscar inexplicably has a glimmer of faith in his heart, if disaster is about to happen and bad luck is coming, does he have the power to change all this?
