Chapter 187: Chess Player Raven (Happy Mid-Autumn Festival Wishes Everyone)
It would have been a joke to have a dragon knight flying in the sky hunt down a group of wanderers who are good at stealth.
However, with the addition of a few props, everything is different.
The Spiritual Dust of the Phantom Mist, a kind of spore dust unique to the Spirit Realm, once a person is touched, it will shine like a torch in the dark night in the eyes of the Spirit Creatures within three hours. It can be easily tracked with a simple psionic detection device in hand.
This is a shameless tactic that was developed in the game's ruined years.
Using this pit wanderer, coupled with the dragon knight hovering high in the sky, it is like driving a plane to chase and kill a car fugitive in a police and bandit blockbuster before the crossing.
Because they found that no matter how they disguised themselves and how they changed their direction of travel, they would still be chased by the pursuers in the air and behind them.
Soon, not only were there pursuers behind, but there were also people blocking the road in front. Prince Darsnier's stalker troops, as well as the strong men he had brought in, also began to enter.
A sense of despair that there was nowhere to escape pervaded Ciric's camp.
The traitor Count Tristan, who is the least good at stealth, was the first to be caught. He didn't even run 500 meters before he was caught.
"Her Majesty spare your life! I have made meritorious service for the Corian Pais, and I have also joined the army of the King of Qin, for the sake of my past merits, spare me! Tristan tried to crawl over with tears and snot to kiss the tip of Effine's shoe.
His outstretched hand was only halfway out and gone.
The Iceberg Female Sword Master showed a rare wrath, slashing his left hand with a single elbow.
"Wow, ahhhh Clutching the severed arm that was spurting blood, Tristan rolled on the ground in pain: "Your Majesty, are you angry?" People like me don't deserve your killing! ”
Looking at Tristan's howling appearance, Sainz and Jacob, the two legendary powerhouses, couldn't help frowning: this is simply an insult to the name of the legendary powerhouse! I really don't know how this product became a legend!
Effie certainly understood what Tristan's family had to pay for his promotion.
Traitors can't stay!
When betrayal doesn't have to pay a price! Any ambition will be realized!
Effie's face was frosty: "As your former loyal merit, I can allow you to have a decent cause of death." ”
Tristan lifted his muddy face in disbelief, "No! You can't do this to me! I'm still useful to you! My family is still useful to you! ”
Old man Jacob suddenly said, "Your Majesty Queen Collinpais, I have sent Raven's words. He said, 'If Tristan is caught, I hope to give it to him for the time being, and he will promise to return his body the next day, and the cause of death is an assassination by the Darksun.' ’。 As soon as I pass on the word, how to judge, of course, leave it to your Majesty. ”
Effie and Sainz looked at each other, and they couldn't help but be impressed in their eyes. Did Raven even expect this?
I wanted to say "do as Raven says", but when she thought that the loyal guards around her were all loyal to herself, Effie changed her words: "The next day, I hope to see Count Tristan have a dignified death." ”
"No, no. Don't—" Sainz cut off Tristan's hands and feet to be on the safe side, burned them in front of the goods, and then handed over the discarded 'human stick' to the guards.
Good news has come from all sides one after another, and this dark day is a loss. One of the three high priests ran away, the remaining one was captured, one was killed on the spot, and the rest were wiped out.
And the Sanctuary powerhouse, Francisco Murray, escaped after being seriously injured by Pyros. As a powerhouse in the holy realm, there are countless escape hole cards. If you really want to escape, it will be difficult to chase you to death.
According to Raven's instructions in advance, Pyros did not intend to kill Francisco from the beginning, but focused on causing damage, and the divine power left in Francisco's body, unless he could find a real god who was willing to spend a lot of money to help him get rid of it, he would definitely not be better in two or three years.
It's over.
Whether it was Effie or the strong, there was a strange satisfaction in their hearts - Ciric's men planted another hand.
I don't know when they began to have an invisible trust in Raven. Everyone vaguely felt that Raven was playing a big game of chess. Because even for such a big thing as fighting against the powerhouses of the Holy Domain, Raven didn't come out in person. But everyone present unconsciously became willing to become Raven's pawns.
It's so comfortable without it.
Raven has taken into account the interests of almost everyone and has made the best balance. Only those recognized bastards suffer every time. For example, Ciric, Maiske and the like.
"Do you use heaven and earth as a chessboard and gods as chess pieces?" Staring in the direction of Mosha's imperial capital, Effie was a little distracted, and then, for no reason, the ground turned red.
"What's wrong?" Sainz asked.
"No, I just remembered Raven out of the blue." Gently stroke the ends of your drooping blonde hair. Effie began to understand a little bit as to why her own god, Lyra, would do this to Raven. Once shared hardships, and then saved herself from the abyss of despair again and again, even the hardest hearted woman can't help but be moved by this kind of man.
Sky! What was I thinking?
Effie slapped both of her cheeks with both hands to sober herself up: that was the man that Leila God loved.
"Let's go! I always had a hunch that Raven would soon win the title of 'Strongest Gold'! ”
What's happening here is that Mosa can't be unaware.
The report of this short but fierce battle was soon sent to Emperor Mosha, and the emperor did not speak, but the ministers who knew the emperor well knew at a glance that the emperor's mood was extremely bad.
The Mosha royal family made their fortune on the support of Bane, the god of tyranny. To start a business, the god of tyranny with boundless power is undoubtedly one of the best options. Bane's support is strong, and the teachings are simple and violent - the world is mine, and whoever doesn't give it what I want, I'll take it myself.
With nothing left, Bane's aid is the most stimulating spirit, and it is addictive.
When a humble family of nobles became an imperial royalty, Bane became completely unacceptable. Bane is violent and unreasonable, and he takes it for granted that he will dictate a lot of almost impossible tasks to his followers. Then the believer will be punished with the most severe punishment for failing to achieve his vision, even his vision.
"The whole world should be the property of my dark lord Bane, and I can do whatever I want! You so-called imperial kings are nothing more than my slaves. On more than one occasion, Bane has proclaimed this openly to all believers.
This kind of undignified and precarious life is by no means something that the Mosha royal family can endure again and again, endlessly.
Wanting to use Bane's power and not daring to openly turn his back on Bane, but never giving up his efforts to stand on his own from Bane, this is the current situation of the Mosha royal family.
The fact that worship of other gods is allowed within the Mosha Empire is based on this.
Bane is evil and powerful, and he is rough. It doesn't mean that he has no brains. Otherwise, Bane wouldn't be in the Order-Evil faction.
Given that the Mosha royal family has no obvious rebellion, Bane is simply propping up Darsnir as a pawn.
Even so, it was enough to worry about the Mosha royal family.
"As for why he privately dispatched the Dragon Knight Legion into the Imperial Capital's defense circle, Prince Darsnir made an official response. He said that it was to 'exterminate the high priests of Shirek who had slipped into the imperial capital's defenses without the Mosha royal family noticing.' Now the retainer has killed Quint, the High Priest of the Dark Sun. Capture Sandru, a high-ranking priest of the Darksun, and several mid-level priests. Later today, these murderous church priests will be sacrificed to the god Bane in the imperial capital. 'Full text above. The herald reported tremblingly.
The corners of Emperor Mosha's eyes twitched, and his hands trembled a little, and finally he didn't embarrass the poor herald, waved his hand, and let him go down.
Slap in the face! An out-and-out slap in the face!
If Prince Darsnil fails. Or if only a few Ciric junior priests were caught, then the Mosha royal family would definitely be able to confidently interrogate Darth Nir for the great crime of entering the imperial capital's defense circle without permission!
Now that there is human and physical evidence, then the trespass of the Dragon Knight Legion has become reasonable and legal!
The Church of Tyranny was the nominal state religion of the Mosha Empire, and the Mosha Emperor also nominally believed in the god of tyranny. Bane has many enemies, but there are only two forces that really require believers to kill those who see them: one is the loyal church of Thom, the god of loyalty and courage who died with Bane, and the other is the murderous church of Ciric.
Unless Emperor Mosha immediately announces his conversion, he is to do so.
It's not that the Mosa royal family didn't know that Effie would be attacked, they just acquiesced to all this, after all, Raven was too close to Darsnir, who believed in Bane most thoroughly. And the man who came out was the fool of Prince Gaos, and the foolish prince didn't even know that the person he had paid a lot of money for was actually the priest of Shirek.
I knew that West, the brain of the gods, was using it all to play tightropes. Emperor Mosha still acquiesced. He even prepared a back-up to strangle Ciric's men as soon as they succeeded, and then take them to Bane.
However, because of the birth of Pyros, the script was completely changed.
Leading all of this is obviously Raven, who is being cheered by hundreds of thousands of people in the Mosha Empire, a half-elf demon-level newcomer who is only fifteen years old!
Emperor Mosha held his forehead, always feeling that he didn't know if this world was too crazy, or Raven was too crazy. Within a few months, the kid had made a name for himself.
With unparalleled wisdom and mysterious foresight, he almost dismembered the murderous church under the command of Shirek, a medium-powered god, known as the most secretive organization in the world.
One famous god after another fell into the hands of this kid, and behold: Ciric, Meske, Radug, Gargus. Which one is not a notorious deity?
Then, one by one, the gods became his current or potential allies, Lyra, the Red Knight, Shanny, Tempas, Moradin, Till, Thom, and Ilmat.
Many gods and people hate Raven, but many more like him.
Emperor Mosha suddenly realized that Raven had changed from a pawn to a chess player. Even if his gold-level strength is still low in the eyes of the world.
The emperor pulled the prime minister and said in his ear: "If that plan fails again, then we will do the opposite, whether Raven wants to become a king or become a god, we will do our best to win him over!" (To be continued.) )
