Chapter 1 The Unstable Rear
Since the Titan God promised that the Goddess of War would join the battlefield, Noron, as the front-line commander, naturally could no longer step into the front line alone as before. But fortunately, after Ellie became a real high-ranking god, the kingdom of God and the temple did not leave Noron's divine crest, which surprised the gods who knew about it, but they didn't study much when they thought of the mysterious relationship between Noron and several creation goddesses.
And the Kingdom of God, as a high-ranking god, let alone a team of 1,000 people, even if it is more than a hundred. So a few days after Noron had a secret conversation with Hydra, and when Lara was also sent by Hydra, he took Ellie and Lara back to the Titan gods, and took the prepared Renekton and Nasus and their troops to the front line.
At this time, it is winter, the winter of the Angola Zerg is no different from the ground, the same cold wind is biting, many streams are cut off, and the lakes are frozen, but it is really compared with the ground, due to the particularity of the underground environment, although the temperature is much lower than before, but it is impossible to snow heavily.
In this kind of low temperature of more than 10 degrees below zero, the soldiers prefer to stay in the tent safely, or gather together to warm themselves by the fire and hot soup, while those unlucky people who have been sent to patrol can only put on cold armor depressedly, hold on to the weapons that are about to freeze and leave this warm place.
But at the same time, in the city of Cologne, one of the three major empires of mankind, Bishop Kevin, who has been working in the Temple of the Goddess of Life for one hundred and forty years, is facing an unprecedented predicament.
Mr. Kevin was originally an archbishop of the Temple of the Goddess of Life, but at the age of one hundred and twenty, he politely declined the position of Bishop of the area offered to him by the Temple. I returned to the area where I was born, the southern part of Cologne, known as the slum of Cologne.
Born in Nancheng District, he knows. The security here is not very good, though. But most of the people who live here are kind and friendly, and when he was a child, he often went to the neighbor's house to eat.
The reason why it is a 'slum' is that most of the residents here are civilians who have no professional talent and no skills. They don't make much money, so they can't afford to pay the high prices of housing in other parts of Cologne, so they can only live in slums that leak through the wind and rain if they are not careful.
It is because of his personal experience that he knows how inconvenient it is for people here to see a doctor. I felt okay when I was sick, and I didn't dare to go to the expensive hospital that scared people to death. can only rely on the body to resist; There is no money to treat a serious illness, so many people take risks and step into a road of no return, or lie at home in despair and wait for death. Even some seriously ill elderly people threw themselves into the river to take poison in order not to drag down their families.
Old Kevin was found to have professional talent back then, and walked out of here to become a priest in the Temple of the Goddess of Life, and then climbed up one level at a time, earning a lot of gold coins in his life. In his later years, when he was single, he took all his savings and connections with him, and built a small church in a place like the slum to make it easier for people who could not afford to see a doctor here.
Naturally, the people in the slums can't afford to make offerings, but Kevin doesn't care either. He came this time to transform the environment of the slum and find a way out for the people here. He has hundreds of years of contacts. In addition, Kevin Sr. is also an LV13 advanced nature priest himself, although there are not many people who get out of the slums with his help, but there are always three or four every year.
But looking at the anxious red-haired sister who lived next door in front of him and the silver-haired brother who had a high fever and fell into a coma, his face was abnormally red, even the old Kevin, who was used to seeing poor people in this slum, couldn't help but sigh.
Kevin Sr. is over one hundred and sixty years old this year, not to mention this pair of children, even the parents of this pair of children can be said to have grown up with him.
Like most people in the slums, their families are poor. The father is the lowest construction worker, and the mother suffered from the cold after giving birth to two children, and her heart was already bad, and her health is even worse. I had to stay at home and be a full-time housewife, but from time to time I would sell a few embroidery copies to subsidize the family.
An accident, my father had an accident on the construction site and never came back, my sister went to the construction site several times to find no answer, and was almost molested by the foreman.
The younger brother of the siblings was born a little stupid, and he was frail and sickly, so every month Bishop Kevin would treat him, and Kevin did not have the idea of adopting them, but every time he was firmly rejected by his sister.
The elder sister of the two siblings is sixteen years old this year, and her appearance is not bad, and she had hoped to marry outside the slums, but because of the drag of her younger brother, she has not been able to find her husband's family. In addition, their sister and brother have a deep relationship, and the younger brother is stupid, so the sister has to get up early and help others do some odd jobs to survive. After rejecting Bishop Kevin's adoption, although the sister still wants to raise her brother alone, she will no longer refuse Kevin's occasional bread and work.
But today, just as Kevin saw that his brother had a fever again, and wanted to perform a treatment as usual, a dark dagger with a little green light suddenly appeared from a position he didn't expect, and stabbed deeply into the ribs of the old bishop, who had been away from the battle for decades and was completely defenseless.
If old Kevin immediately pulled out a dagger to treat himself at this time, maybe he could still be saved. But just when the dagger was pulled out by him through gritted teeth, the front half of the dagger suddenly broke off on its own and was left in the body of old Kevin, and at the same time, a cold breath invaded old Kevin's heart along the wound, and the bleeding wound and the slowly slowing heartbeat made him clearly feel the weakness of his life
At this moment, old Kevin understood that this was a murder specifically for a therapeutic professional like him, but he stabbed him in the back, and then the girl who hid her face and cried, and the sad and tearful girl did not scold, but under the girl's painful and struggling eyes, as if she did not feel the pain, she gently and kindly touched the girl's head, laboriously put some scattered coins in her arms into the girl's arms, and closed her eyes with a soft smile.
A minute passed, five minutes passed, ten minutes passed, and just as the old man's body slowly cooled in the cold wind, a dark green flame suddenly shot towards the old man's body from the darkness. It wasn't until the old bishop's body was completely engulfed by the flames containing the abyssal aura that a tall blurred figure slowly appeared in the church. (To be continued.) )
