426. The Battle of Destiny VIII

After a short rest, Sean and Christina hurried to the house where Diane was imprisoned.

It is a three-storey house made of wood, with a stone base floor and a stone staircase. There is nothing special about the house itself, except that the materials used are relatively high-end and sturdy - in the Miracle Continent, there is no such architectural concept as the so-called earthquake resistance, mainly because there are almost no earthquakes or anything like that.

Theology is above all else.

But at the moment, this house, in Sean's opinion, has a very strong earthquake resistance.

However, he didn't understand this, but Christina next to him knew a little: "It's a magic array." ”

"Magic Circle?" Sean was a little confused.

"A magic array that can compete with the wrath of the gods, this thing...... It's not simple. Christina only knew a little, so she was a little confused, "I probably had already thought about the infiltration plan from the beginning, and what to do if it was discovered by Marz." ”

Sean pursed his lips and said nothing more.

For these gods to play Infernal Affairs between them, Sean is really not interested at all. He could see that the architecture of this house was not simple, but when it came to the theory of the use of the magic array, Sean really didn't know much about it, especially this kind of building that had already formed specifications, even if Sean wanted to steal the blueprints of this magic array, it would be impossible to do it.

Therefore, he quickly lost interest in research, and directly pushed open the door and went straight to the third floor.

Christina kept behind Sean.

Originally, the two were worried that there were other people from the St. Joels Empire left behind in the house, and they would inevitably have to fight again. Unexpectedly, the whole house was empty, and only two bodies were found on the second floor. It appears to be the original owner of the house, a cult of the god of dawn who was sent by the St. Joels Empire to lurk in Adroan. It is probably that these two people already know their fate, after all, it is a house for Ziggs and the other three paladins to live in. They will definitely be settled afterwards, and in order to avoid these criminal laws. So these two people are already "self-giving".

Sean only glanced at it, and then said nothing.

Christina naturally would not be interested either.

So, the two quickly found Diane, who was imprisoned in the corner on the third floor.

Diane's hands were locked, and she was hanging from the railings on either side, and her feet were also wrapped around the hammer balls that she knew were very weighty at a glance. The clothes on his body can only be said to be barely able to cover his body, because the long and various cross-country marches have long worn out his clothes and pants, and he does not look much better than a beggar, especially his messy hair and scarred body. It looks even more pitiful than the average beggar.

may have had a life experience of having had very difficult days, so seeing Diane at this time, Sean felt a faint compassion in his heart.

Christina frowned slightly, because the smell of Diane was so bad.

In particular, there is an air of ruin and corruption everywhere in him - with the strength of Sean and Christina, how can he not know what this means. Obviously, Diane had extremely serious internal injuries, and maybe even the origin of her body had been destroyed, otherwise it would not have been possible to have this dead smell of rotting internal organs. If Diane's current condition continues, she will die in a month or two at most.

But even Diane is now depressed and decadent to this extent. But his eyes were still very bright, and there was no fear or other emotion in his gaze staring at Sean and Christina, just calm - but the more calm he was, the more Sean wanted to scream. Hope. Diane, in particular, is very tall. Even though he was leaning against the wall in the corner, his legs outstretched, he still felt like a mountain to Sean and Christina. There is a very unique sense of heaviness that rushes towards you.

Christina understands this as a sense of oppression on the strong.

It looks like a dying person, but it can still bring such a terrible sense of oppression to Christina and Sean. Christina couldn't help but wonder what Diane would be like in her heyday.

"You're here to kill me?" Diane glanced at Sean and Christina, although she didn't care much about their strength. However, that also refers to him in his heyday, with his current situation, he is afraid that just a random person above the Silver Realm will be able to solve him.

"It's not." Sean shook his head, then went to help untie the torture instruments that locked Diane, "Save you." ”

"Help me?" As if hearing some funny joke, Diane burst into a burst of laughter.

But soon, the laughter turned into a violent cough.

It can be seen that Diane's body is really very weak, and she is also very seriously injured.

Sean doesn't understand the doorways in those punishments, and naturally he doesn't know how much death the St. Joels Empire has put into restricting Diane, a "terrorist", just the special torture tools that restrict his power and demonic power can accelerate his death. Being able to persist for more than half a year without dying is enough to see how strong Diane's will to survive is, of course, part of this is that his vitality is indeed more vigorous than ordinary people.

After taking down all those torture instruments, Diane exhaled slightly, and the look on her face was a little more relaxed.

It's just a few points, and it's obviously impossible to restore movement and freedom.

But he could also see that Sean and the others were really here to save him. So after a little hesitation, he still spoke, "Do you know Edward?" ”

Sean was slightly stunned, then nodded: "I know." ”

Penitents. Edward, the Seventh Demon God, this name is too clear for Sean. Because this old immortal guy is still his nominal uncle, and he also has some troubles with him, of course Sean will not say this now. Because there is no point.

"How's he doing?" Diane asked.

He could hear Edward's roar when he came to Aderoan, and he could know why Edward was here. It's just that he's been locked up here all the time. So he didn't know what the situation was out there, even if he was released by Sean at this time. But he still couldn't know the specific situation right away. Because now he is too weak, or it should not be said that he is weak, but he no longer has the ability to fight.

It's just that as soon as she asked this, Christina frowned, as if she realized that something was wrong.

"Fighting with the people of the St. Joels Empire." Sean said casually, "I don't know the specific situation, you should know the battle at that level." ”

Sean means. He wasn't strong enough to intervene in the battle between Edward and Ziggs and Yebion.

Diane naturally understood.

"You look like this, and you can still fight?" Christina asked, frowning.

"What do you think?" Diane chuckled, "I've hurt the Origin, and I've been treated specially, unless it's the Living Tree Essence, which will allow me to recover." But if you want to restore the combat power of the heyday, there is no way...... Because I'm not in a very good mental state either. ”

The essence of the Tree of Life, also known as the essence of life and the holy liquid of life, is the core essence of the Tree of Life. In layman's terms. It is the source blood produced by the heart of the strong, like the liquid of life is the diluted version of the essence of life, so the efficacy of the essence of life is a hundred times that of the liquid of life, and it is said that as long as there is one breath left. Then drinking ten milliliters of Life Essence Liquid can instantly restore all injuries to their original state, even more powerful than the Holy Healing Technique of the Church of Life.

The reason why it is strong. That's because after all, the Holy Healing Technique can only treat all kinds of internal and external injuries, but the Life Essence can restore a person's injuries to their original state, including aging organs. This effect is equivalent to a longer lifespan. The only thing that cannot be treated is the damaged soul and the over-depleted mental state. In addition, it can be said that the essence of life can be cured by anything.

"I have the essence of life, and I can provide it for you." Sean spoke, taking out a vial of liquid from the storage ring and handing it to Diane.

Looking at this vial of liquid, the well-informed Diane knew very well that this vial of life essence was exactly ten milliliters, which could allow him to fully recover his physical state. So his expression was slightly stunned, and then he raised his head to look at Sean and Christina, and said, "Do you know who I am?" ”

This time, the question was a little more heavy.

"I don't know." Sean shook his head, "I don't care either, though. …… All I know is that if you join the fray, you can change the situation on the outside, so whoever you are, I have to get you back in shape. …… Even if it's not in its heyday, you have to join the fight. ”

"That's right." Christina nodded, "As long as you can solve Edward, nothing else matters. ”

"Resolved...... Edward? Diane looked up at Christina, "Edward is here to save me, do you think I'm going to deal with Edward at this time?" ”

This time, it was Christina's turn to be a little stunned.

However, Sean didn't say anything, but simply stuffed the bottle of life essence in his hand to Diane to make a stand with his actions.

And when Christina saw this, the look on her face suddenly became angry, and she pointed at Sean and shouted, "You already know the current situation, right?" ”

Sean didn't answer, but slowly got up.

Maybe others don't know, but Sean has already gotten a lot of information from Oscar.

Oscar wants to prevent the fate pattern of the Miracle Continent from being changed, so he has to put this big battle that is enough to re-establish the fate pattern in the current place where many forces naturally gather. You must know that even if Oscar can see the future, he can't rashly force his fate around, because it will make him disappear directly, so he must use this ingenious means to punish him in a roundabout way.

In Oscar's plan, what he wants to do is to drive Edward out of the plane of the Miracle Continent, and at the same time let the Church of the God of War and the St. Joels Empire avoid the outbreak of national war, and by the way, let the people of the Peace Council go back and forth, and finally prevent the destruction of the Lookout Spire.

In other words, in these four things, there must be the intervention of Sean and Christina. In order to balance the entire battle of fate, Kristina and Sean must join forces against the Church of the God of War and the St. Joels Empire. And since it was decided to let Sean and Christina intervene. So Oscar, of course, was going to stop Fort Solomon and Deaththorn, because these two groups were coming for the Floating Island and the Peace Council, respectively. If these two groups of people were allowed to enter, then all Oscar could do in the end was to prevent the collapse of the Spire, and the national war between the St. Joels Empire and the Northern Duchy Commonwealth could not be stopped.

Even, Edward will destroy the entire Northern Continent, and the Peace Council and Deaththorn will unscrupulously use the Northern Continent as the main battlefield to end the years of feud between the two sides.

None of this is what Oscar wants to see.

He even calculated that he would drag Sean into the water, and Bess and the others would also appear there, so he had to personally stop Bess from entering the battle in Aderoan.

It's a pity.

Because Oscar failed to see through Kokire's identity, he missed such a terrifying existence. Instead, it became a place for Sean to take advantage of.

Sean is noncommittal about Oscar's great ideals and practices.

But his willingness to join this battle also has his own selfish motives.

In his opinion, whether it is the Saint Joles Empire or the God of War Church, one or two people must be left. Of course, if the most perfect situation can be achieved, it is to kill all the two sons of the God of War Church, and at the same time, leave the three paladins together forever. In this way, whether it is the Holy Maiden plan that he is going to implement next or the battle against the St. Joels Empire in the future, he can be fully prepared.

For this, Diane's release. It is the key to the whole plan.

Only by letting Diane out can there be a possibility of solving the problems of those paladins and the two holy sons - originally in Oscar's plan, after releasing Diane, it will also mean the end of the battle of fate. Because then there will be no peace council and Sean or anything. Oscar naturally has no reason to continue fighting with Bess, he will come forward to persuade all forces, after all, in Oscar's words. No one can fight better than him, so if it is impossible to persuade with words. He decided to convince everyone.

It's a pity that all this is because of Sean's status as a "son of the plane" after all. As a result, the success fell short.

Now Oscar is entangled by bass, and he has no possibility and opportunity to come forward, so how the situation will develop next is no longer Oscar's final say.

Sean stood in front of Diane, turned his back to Christina, and said softly, "I just want to ask you, what will you do when you go out?" ”

"I'll kill those three paladins." Diane smiled faintly, "To be honest, my original mission was to kill Edward, but it was just a secret that was targeted by the Dawn Church, so it eventually evolved into a situation where I had to join forces with Edward." …… But all this is no longer important, what is important is ...... There's no way I'm going to watch Edward die like this, or at least, rush him to save me. ”

Speaking of this, Diane bowed his head slightly: "I told him that if both of us must die, then he must die under my sword." ”

"Then you go and kill him now." Christina shouted.

Diane just smiled and didn't speak.

This reaction and attitude made Christina clench her fists.

"Because Edward is a demon god, he has to die, right?" Diane asked, tilting her head and looking at Christina.

"Yes." Christina nodded, "Any destabilizing and destructive factors that are not conducive to the development of the world must be eliminated. ”

"You're from the Peace Council, aren't you?"

"That's right." Christina nodded proudly.

"If I were a demon king believer, what would you do?"

Christina's face instantly became extremely ugly, and she stared at Sean deadly. However, Sean was also a little stunned, he knew that Diane and Edward had some inexplicable and unexplained relationship, or Oscar told him, but he didn't know that Diane was actually a heretic.

This is no ordinary crime!

"This world is not only black and white." Diane ignored Christina and continued, "The one who asked me to kill Edward was the Demon King. He called himself Nkos and gave me a suit of armor that could deal with Edward. It is precisely because of this armor that the people of the Dawn Church want to kill me and regain this armor, and even force me to join forces with Edward for this. …… In this case, do you think I'm a heretic good or bad? What role is the Church of Dawn playing? As for Edward, whom you hate, what kind of being is it? ”

Sean didn't listen too much, he only understood one sentence, Diane was a believer in Enkos!

Christina didn't bother to pay attention to it so much, but just shouted coldly: "It's all crooked." I don't care so much, I can't care about so much, I just know that all heretics, demon gods, demon kings, and even vampires are all existences that must be destroyed. …… Since you are unwilling to deal with Edward, then there is no need for me to save you, and even because you are a heretic, I have one more reason to kill you. ”

With that, Christina rushed forward with an arrow to kill Diane.

But almost the moment Christina moved, Sean did not hesitate to turn around and swing his sword, and the whole action was done in one go, directly forcing Christina back.

"You're going to stop me?" Christina grimaced.

"He has to get out." Sean said lightly, "Diane, how about we make a deal?" ”

"How dare you make a deal with the infidels!" The look on Christina's face became even more angry, and she rushed towards Sean without hesitation.

It's just that in the current situation where Christina can't use the domain, how can Sean be afraid of Christina, and immediately swing his sword, with his current sword skills, he can really fight with Christina. So much so that he was able to find an opportunity to open his mouth and say to Diane: "I will help you stop her, after you go out, you will not only have to deal with the people of the St. Joels Empire, but also help me deal with the two holy sons of the God of War Church." ”

Diane was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Okay! ”

After that, without the slightest hesitation, as soon as he raised his head, he poured the essence of life directly into his mouth.

In an instant, a more vigorous and condensed momentum completely erupted from Diane's body, almost turning into a solid pillar of earthy yellow light and soaring straight into the sky. And the many scars and injuries on Diane's body are also recovering quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and they soon returned to the previous healthy state, and the stench of organ decay emitted from her body has completely disappeared.

The only thing that hasn't changed is probably because of the beard that hasn't been cleaned for a long time and the hair that is messy like a bird's nest.

"Uriel!"

A low roar, an angel outfit. Uriel emerged from Diane's body one by one, and when the golden brilliance was gone, Diane, who had already finished dressing, looked majestic. The only pity is that with his current state, he can't make Uriel enter the awakening state, and he can only fight with the strength of the fifteenth order.

However, for the situation that has now been completely chaotic to the point that it can be described as very bad, adding a Diane with legendary peak combat power is enough to change the tide of the battle dramatically. (To be continued......)
