Chapter 687: The Gods Are Not Tonight (79)
The third day of connection with the gods.
The Son suddenly understood why good things are always short-lived and cannot be had.
It's still the same soft wind, it's still the same bright sky.
But the hearts of everyone in the temple were covered with dark clouds.
Because, during the morning prayer ceremony, the high priest and the old abbot brought letters from the border.
"The Paladin's team has suffered heavy damage, and we urgently need to send new forces to fill the void."
The thorny wall that isolated the invasion of the Warcraft army was too badly impacted, and there were more and more loopholes in the magic array on the wall.
The paladin's ranks, dwindling day by day, are no longer able to stop.
They can no longer divide their strength to kill those fish that have slipped through the net, they can only concentrate their strength to maintain the formation on the thorn wall and not be completely defeated.
They sent countless letters asking for help, all of which were intercepted by the three-eyed ravens in the sky.
The only one that was sent to the temple was hidden in the belly of a three-eyed crow they had killed, before being teleported to the temple through the magic circle.
The situation has become quite urgent.
When the prayer was over, the Son stood on the high platform, washed his hands, and turned to look at the people below.
The new seedlings selected by the Holy Academy have added a bit of popularity to this deserted temple.
But that's about it.
"We don't have ...... anymore People, can be sent to the battlefield again. ”
He spoke, his eyes glinting.
The royal court was unwilling to waste its strength, and the temple had almost sent a single soldier in order to protect the tranquility of Shen Feng.
The former shrine was also lively.
In addition to paladins and priests, there are also more than thirty.
Nowadays, it is not at the border to defend against Warcraft, there is not much left.
It is to be sent to various places to solve the problem of resettlement of refugees after the plague.
A huge temple, almost unusable.
"The Son ......"
The old dean sighed, looked in Gu Yao's direction, and said:
"We need a paladin as a leader, and I will negotiate with the royal court to at least divide a team of 1,000 people to accompany him."
The words fell.
In the temple, everyone looked at Gu Yao.
Oscar, who was standing in the crowd, was still a little pale, and the pain of last night left him in a state of sluggishness.
But the old dean's proposal made him feel energetic for a moment.
The only official paladin in the temple is this commoner.
"Paladin Haruka, as the most outstanding powerhouse of the Holy Academy, will definitely bring us the good news of victory."
The blond-haired and blue-eyed young man leaned over slightly, looked at the Holy Son praying on the high platform, and said unhurriedly.
The old dean nodded, agreeing with him.
"Holy Son, I would like to ask for my life and go to the border to fight against the Demonic Beasts!"
The red-haired boy pounced and landed on one knee with a hint of pleading.
Oscar was stunned, he didn't expect Andre to suddenly come out with something bad.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw that the high priest who had been silently divining suddenly said:
Andrey ..... Your father has been born and died at the border, and we cannot put his only child in danger. ”
The red-haired boy lowered his head, and his whole person was full of frustration.
The high priest knew that this child had a pure heart and wanted to share his father's worries.
However, if he does get to the border, he will become a weakness and a burden to the captain of the paladin.
And, right now, there are indeed better candidates.
"Holy Son..... Please also make a decision. ”
The old dean spoke, urging.
The border crisis cannot be delayed for a moment.
The Son was silent for a moment, watching as the crowd waited for his response.
Only then did he say with a heavy heart:
"Andrey. Before you, someone asked for help, and I already allowed it...."
Last night's moon was bright, but still not as beautiful as the girl's eyes.
The water of the Yale River flows unusually gently.
She opened her mouth and said that she would go to the border to deal with the monster for him......
"You are the Son of the Sinking Wind.... You want to protect the people of Shenfeng, and you have not changed for so many years. ”
"So, even if you don't pray to me, I will still do it for you and protect what you want to protect."
The demand of a god is the deepest desire of his heart that he has always refused to compromise.
He can't say no, and he can't say no.
Even if this god belongs to him alone.
Even if this god is weak and powerless.....
Even if he didn't want to.
But God so loved the world that He could not bear to plunge his people into panic and calamity...... Therefore, the gods are willing to fight on their own.
And what reason did he have to stop it?
