Chapter Seventy-Three: Lord of the Dawn

In the dim cave, the Greywater Mercenary Regiment and the Purple Gold Flower Knights were still standing in place and did not move, and Colin, Karen, and Meredith looked at the crystal nucleus on the ground that emitted a faint green shimmer, and had a headache.

"I didn't expect that this matter was not settled, and another thing would come. Colin was a little agitated, he already felt that the trajectory of the matter was out of his control and sliding in an unknown direction.

"I blame me for this, I didn't probe the crystal nucleus that the demon wolf Baker handed over to me, so I handed it over to Carl at will. Karen had a look of chagrin on her face at the moment.

Colin only thought that Gibran's words made Karen a little in a trance, so he also patted Karen on the shoulder to comfort her. Although Carl was sucked into this crystal nucleus, the situation is unknown now. But our mission can't stop yet, so we move on with this crystal nucleus. When this is over, if Carl hasn't come out of this crystal nucleus, then let's figure it out at that time. Now, even at this point, there's no good way to get Carl out!" Colin then said to everyone.

"Well, Colin was right. Let's move on!" Meredith picked up the pale green crystal nucleus on the ground and probed aside, but found nothing unusual. The crystal nucleus lying in the palm of the hand is an ordinary crystal nucleus, without a trace of strangeness.

Hearing the regimental commander's order and Archmage's affirmation, the Greywater Mercenary Regiment began to place the corpses of their comrades who had died in battle into the coffin, and then into the spatial ring where the coffin was placed. Then the seriously injured companion is bandaged, leaving one person to take care of the seriously injured companion.

There were not many people from the Greywater Mercenary Group who entered Dracula's mausoleum this time, only more than twenty people. Although the losses in the first wave were not very large, the losses in the second wave were very heavy. The main casualties were basically killed in battle with the vampires. Not counting the serious wounded, there were enough six people killed in the battle alone. Plus the seriously injured and those who stayed to take care of them. In this second level, the Greywater Mercenary Group lost half of its strength.

The losses of the Purple Flower Knights were less, and only one person was besieged to death by vampires.

When everything was ready, Colin took the lead and bowed deeply to the seriously wounded who were left behind, and then led the remaining dozen or so regiments to the depths of Dracula's mausoleum. Karen and the Purple Gold Flower Knight also gave a knightly salute to the seriously injured members of the Greywater Mercenary Regiment, and followed behind the Greywater Mercenary Regiment, silently moving forward.

Inside the pale green crystal nucleus, Carl was still lying on the grass, his eyes slightly closed, and he had no intention of going back. And the same is true of Pelosi, the god of the earth, who lies on the grass and closes her eyes to recuperate.

I don't know how long it took, but Carl opened his eyes. "Pelosi, I still remember the scene when I first met you when I was a child. At that time, you already had some grasp of the laws of nature, but you were just a small divine servant. I still miss those days, how free I was!"

Pelosi also showed a nostalgic expression, "Indeed, the world at that time was just born. The skies are under the rule of the Winged Humans, the land is filled with tribes of giants, and the seas are raging with behemoths and storms. Everything is so new!"

"I remember that we traveled together to a newly born earth elemental plane, and it was there that I got a hint of the laws of the earth!" Pelosi said, turning her head to Karl.

"yes, everything seemed so good back then!" Carl exclaimed. "And all this beauty is created by the Father's loss of the power of the source!"

"Karl, this is not a reason why God the Father can destroy the gods. The world has its own birth and destruction. All the worlds before that followed this law, this is fate, a fate that cannot be changed by the Father!" Pelosi knew what Karl was going to say, so she interrupted what Karl said and said loudly.

"What if, as Father hopes, I want to rely on the power of your gods to keep the world running?" Karl said in a cold tone, looking directly into Pelosi's eyes. "Or do you want to seal me in this world with the Lord of Dawn?"

Karl's gaze looked behind Pelosi, where a light appeared, and then the Lord of the Dawn appeared in the small plane. Looking at the all-too-familiar Lord of the Dawn, Luoda Mountain, there was no hatred or surprise on Karl's face, he just looked at this powerful god who mastered Heavenly Mountain with a flat expression!

"Hello to the great Highness Karl!, Son of the Venerable Creator God!" Luodashan bowed slightly to Karl gracefully, "It is indeed my honor to see you again. I haven't seen you for 10,000 years, but you're still so charming!"

"It is a pleasure to meet you, great King of the Gods, Master of Heavenly Mountain, Lord of the Dawn!" Karl fell to his knees and knocked on the ground. That's the etiquette of mortals when they see gods!

Although Karl knelt down to the Lord of Dawn, the Lord of Dawn seemed unwilling to accept Carl's salute, and his body moved slightly, avoiding it.

When Karl stood up, the Lord of the Dawn returned to Karl and looked at Karl with a smile.

Although he knew in his heart why Luo Dashan was like this, Carl still couldn't accept that he had stood in the camp of the gods in the final battle. In Carl's view, the current Heavenly Mountain is occupied by false gods, and the current gods are all traitors and betrayals of the faith!

Karl glanced at Pelosi, the god of the earth standing beside Mount Loda, and did not speak, but turned and walked under a fruit tree, as if the Lord of the Morning Light had never come, and lay on the grass, closing his eyes and recuperating.

"Carl......" Pelosi walked up to Karl's side and wanted to say something. Karl snorted directly.

Seeing this, Pelosi stood in place with some embarrassment, while Luo Dashan smiled at Pelosi as usual, and then walked to Karl's side. "Are you going to sleep here all the time? Carl!"

"Isn't the purpose of your coming here to seal me here? The taste of being sealed is too uncomfortable, I think I better take the initiative and sleep by myself. Don't waste your divine power!" Karl still didn't mean to wake up.

"What if I said I'm here to save you, to help you!" said Lodashan with a smile.

"Help me, help me?" Karl snapped open his eyes, a glint in them. "What do you mean by that?"

"Because if you keep going, there is only one way to die. ”

Looking at the rocky mountain that didn't look like an alarmist, Carl had some doubts in his heart. His trip to the Alverian Empire, is there really some mastermind behind the scenes? After all, it was too much of a coincidence that he accepted the mission, as if he knew that Carl would go to the Alverian Empire. And the Cortis family, which issued the mission, has not had a single person so far.

Not long ago, Carl had asked Colin, and even Karen, why the Cortis family had released the mission. But not a single member of the Cortis family was to be seen. Karen's explanation was that the Cortis family had issued a mission just to cover up the Empire, and Colin didn't know much about it. Karl agreed with Karen in his doubts.

"I'm just a mortal now, I don't have the power to control the world, I don't know what kind of being needs to devise a plot to kill me?" Karl reverted to his lazy appearance. Although in his heart, Carl believed in Luodashan's words, but on the surface, Carl was still unwilling to bow to Luodashan.

During his years in Paradise Mountain, Carl's friends were not the only one of Pelosi, the god of the earth. Once a good friend, now the Lord of the Dawn who betrayed his father, Carl has conflicting feelings about Mount Lorda. On the one hand, Luo Dashan did use himself to set a trap for the Father to disappear. On the other hand, Karl knew that as the Lord of Light, many of Rodashan's actions were for the ignorant beings of the Endless Plane. He's really good at thinking about himself.

"Since you said that I would die if I went on. Well, I'll stay in this half-plane of Pelosi. Endless melons and fruits are at my disposal, and the beautiful scenery is at my disposal. The dangers you speak of, the conspiracy will leave me. And isn't that exactly what you want?"

"No, you can't stay here. That's what they want!" Luo Dashan said with a serious expression.

"Moving forward will die. Staying will also fall into a trap. Tell me, then, Great Lord of Radiance. What should I do?" Karl said with a reverent face, as he stood up and walked up to the Lord of the Dawn, Lordashan.

"Karl, you are the only being who awakens the divinity within God the Father. If the power of creation in your body is destroyed, then God the Father will never be able to come back into this world. Then, this world will become a sacrifice and the nourishment for the birth of the next world!" Luo Dashan said with a serious expression.

"Tell me, then. Who the hell is behind this? The gods of hell, the abyss, or the mountains of heaven?" Karl had been angered by the words of Mount Loda.

"If it weren't for your unwillingness to sacrifice for the Father's plan, why would the world be like this? The selfish gods are now begging the Father, whom they once forsake, to save them. No matter what the world may become, it will not change the ugliness of your rebellion against the Father!"

In the face of Karl's words, Lota Mountain was silent.

"Since the great god said that a powerful being was planning all this, then please tell me what kind of being can destroy the god of creation in this humble mortal, and can turn the endless plane into nourishment for the birth of the next world?"

"Carl, I can't name that being!" said Rodasan with an apologetic look on his face.

"I'm curious about what kind of existence it is, so that the controller of Heavenly Mountain doesn't dare to say his name!" he laughed in a low voice, "I know, I understand." That being is the gods of the Heavenly Mountain! So, you can't name that being, because you're one of them!"

"Carl, please believe the words of Lordashan. Looking at Carl's increasingly angry expression, Pelosi was a little embarrassed. This meeting was what he came up with.

After receiving prayers from her saints from the kingdom of Elrot, Pelosi was planning this meeting. Carl had lost news since Ragnarok along with Abeham, the creator god. For many years, Paradise Mountain has tried to find Carl, but the search has been fruitless! Now, after finally finding Carl, Pelosi does not want to miss this opportunity. Only when Lordashan and Carl work together to awaken the lost God of Creation can there be hope of surviving the crisis of world destruction.

"Trust him, believe this liar?" Karl looked at Pelosi and couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Ten thousand years ago, it was because I believed in him and believed that he would stand by my side against those evil gods and demons. As a result, all that can be exchanged is betrayal!"

Seeing Carl say this, Pelosi no longer wanted to persuade Carl and silently stepped aside.

"Carl, when disaster strikes, no one is spared. Now you've been blinded by hatred!" The Lord of the Dawn, Lodashan, made a move, and a scale emitting a golden glow appeared in front of Karl, "This is a reverse scale of the dragon god Bahamut, which can help you resist the invasion of evil qi. The rest of the road you need to complete, and this scale will help you complete this path!" With that, a golden light gate appeared behind Mount Loda, and the figure of the Lord of the Dawn disappeared in front of Karl.

Looking at the golden scales in front of him, Karl reached out and caught them with both hands. When the golden light disappeared, revealing the original appearance of the golden scales, Carl had mixed feelings for a while!
