Chapter 329: Earldom
Two days later.
A certain city.
A sharp arrow tore through the air with a whistle-like whistling sound and pierced the long block and pinned a man directly to the wall.
"Save ...... ...... life," the man cried out.
"Help?"
A female voice rang out.
The crow slid down from the wall and stared at the man with interest.
The man pleaded, "I'm really not a ghost, I'm just a civilian, please don't kill me." ”
The crow drew his sword and said with a smile: "It's a pity that I never relented in the matter of killing. ”
"Don't lie to you......"
The man raised his hand with difficulty and pointed to the door behind him.
In the middle of the door, a woman with a baby in her arms looked at the crow with a frightened face.
The crow glanced at it, and his face became complicated.
She shouted at the end of the street:
"Hey, is there a mistake this time, maybe that bastard won't harm the civilians?"
There was no response at the end of the street.
The wind was blowing.
Perhaps the crow was so loud that the baby was frightened and cried loudly.
Crow looked at the end of the street and said irritably: "Uncle Ben was born a master, and he has never dealt with ordinary people-what should this civilian do?" ”
Suddenly, Gu Qingshan's voice sounded from his side:
"I'll see."
Gu Qingshan tied the longbow behind his back, pressed one hand on the man's chest, held the black book in the other, and read lightly:
"All things are born and die for a moment, and by the power of my judgment, your afflictions will be saved—"
"Sacred Word, Pure."
The man's body shook suddenly, and he lost his life on the spot.
"No!" The woman's cry rang out.
She rushed out of the room with the child in her arms and hurried towards the man's body.
The crow looked at the corpse, then at the woman, and hurriedly said, "Hey, this is an ordinary person with no ability, what are we going to do-"
Gu Qingshan didn't speak, but he already held the longbow in his hand.
"You—" Raven shouted nervously.
Gu Qingshan ignored him, raised his hand and shot.
A bolt of lightning flew out of the bowstring and stabbed into the woman's shoulder, dragging her out and pinning her to the wall.
"Ahhh The woman convulsed and screamed.
When she was hit by the arrow, the baby in her hand was already thrown out and was about to hit another wall.
The crow hurriedly went to pick up the baby, and Gu Qingshan flew forward, holding down the woman with one hand, taking out the black book with the other, and quickly recited: "The birth and death of all things are only instantaneous, with my power to judge sin, the suffering you have suffered will be saved——"
"Sacred Word, Pure."
The woman was shocked, and immediately a black shadow flew out of her body and slowly dissipated.
At this time, the crow had already caught the baby, and was looking up at Gu Qingshan and the woman with concern.
"Get out of that baby!" Gu Qingshan suddenly roared.
In the crow's arms, the crying baby suddenly stretched out his hands and stabbed the crow fiercely.
The baby's face is full of hideousness, and its hands turn into sharp claws that can cut anyone's neck with a single blow.
- Almost done.
But at the last moment, a surging cold air emerged from the crow's body, freezing the baby directly in a crystal clear ice cube.
"Go!"
The stuffed duck jumped out of the crow's arms and kicked the ice cubes flying.
The baby realizes that he has lost his chance, and a dark mist gradually rises around him.
The mist condensed into a ghost figure wearing a red mask, staring straight at Gu Qingshan.
"Rod," the ghost began, "nearly sixty percent of ordinary people in this world have been controlled by me, and you can't kill me." ”
His tone became playful: "Or do you already enjoy slaughtering civilians?" Very well, I will satisfy you, and I will guarantee that all civilians will die wherever you pass. ”
Gu Qingshan said lightly: "These people have long since died, and even their souls no longer exist, otherwise after I removed your technique just now, they should have come back to life, not die." ”
The crow broke out in a cold sweat just now, and then said angrily: "Bastard, you kill the baby too, you trash." ”
He stabbed a sword.
The ghost was immediately blown away, leaving only sporadic sounds:
"Strange...... Judge the sinner...... Aren't you ......?"
The sound disappears.
- The Red Oni's art is over.
Mimaki stepped forward to inspect the three corpses and said, "It's still that technique, which is usually not detected, and only when it is activated will it instantly kill the soul and transform it into a corpse that can be controlled from a distance." ”
He shuddered and said in a low voice, "How can the demon world have such a fierce technique? We've never found it in the Void Library. ”
Gu Qingshan looked at the corpse on the ground.
A family of three.
If it weren't for the invasion of evil spirits, they would have lived a peaceful life, not like now, with only corpses left.
Two days ago.
In the wilderness outside Ramon Town, the masters of the Holy Spirit World have killed a large number of evil spirits.
The red ghost didn't know what spell he used, so he was spared.
This is just the beginning.
When the truth was revealed, the powerful people thought of many ways, and finally announced seven holy techniques to distinguish identities in order to uncover the hidden evil spirits and help people eliminate them.
What they didn't expect was that in the entire Holy Spirit world, the demons had been arranged for a long time, with a large number of nobles who had been taken away, and even the commoners were controlled to a considerable extent.
Troubled times have finally come.
One of the two empires, the Frost Empire directly announced that it would not accept any magic tests, and said that everything was an illusion and an excuse for the powerful to destroy the empire.
From top to bottom, the entire empire was put into combat readiness, and the powerful men of the empire directly began to invade other principalities, large and small, calling it a preemptive battle for justice.
It is already clear that the demons have taken most of the powerful men of this empire and have actually taken control of everything.
And the other empire, the Roland Empire, after an intense investigation, found that there were very few things on his side that were seized by evil ghosts.
It turns out that this has something to do with the customs of the empire.
The nobles of the Roland Empire believed that anything given by others should be given to the gods first.
They soaked the inheritance spells, treasures, and armor given by the demons in the sacred spring to offer to the gods before they could use them themselves.
The Sacred Spring naturally has its own purifying power, and the soaked treasures directly lose the effect of taking away.
The demons don't have much to do about it, and they don't dare to try to shake this faith.
In the end, the demons can only offer some eye-catching things to the nobles of the Roland Empire, and focus their main energy on the Frost Empire.
The principality where Gu Qingshan was located was part of the Frost Empire.
Now, the two empires have finally completely turned their faces -
Or maybe the demons have finally shown their true colors.
War broke out without dispute.
This time, everyone is involved.
"The city seems to be about to break, should we add some strength?" Raven asked.
Gu Qingshan joined him, buried the three corpses, and looked into the depths of the city.
The shadows and pupils there are all people.
- The one who has been given up by evil spirits.
The army, the commoners, the nobles, are all trying their best to resist the attack of the Roland Empire.
These people are actually demons who have taken away.
The red ghost doesn't know what kind of spell he used, and he can control anyone's body at any time and give orders to the demons.
The roar of the spell was continuous, resounding through the sky.
The earth shook along with the building, with the occasional rumbling sound of collapse.
The siege continued.
Gu Qingshan sighed and said, "Let's go back to the Roland Empire first, we want to be knighted today, we need to hold power, so that we can better deal with the problem." ”
Raven agreed: "Indeed, but after the knighthood is over, I want to kill the evil ghost again." ”
Gu Qingshan looked at him.
I saw that his eyes were full of unstoppable killing intent.
"Okay, I'll come with you." Gu Qingshan Road.
A burst of white mist formed out of thin air, enveloping the two of them like a whirlwind.
They left the war-torn city neighborhoods.
Roland Empire.
Capital, City of the Holy Crown.
As soon as Gu Qingshan and the others returned to the room, they heard a knock on the door.
"Rod, Your Majesty summons."
Gu Qingshan opened the door and walked towards the palace with the guards.
After much testing, he and the crow were finally led to the palace hall.
From afar, it can be seen that the king of the Roland Empire is discussing the situation of the war with other powerful people, and from time to time someone rushes to report the latest military situation.
The sense of urgency of war arose spontaneously in Gu Qingshan's heart.
The guard asked Gu Qingshan and the crow to stay in place, stepped forward by himself, and reported loudly:
"Your Majesty, Rhodes has been brought."
All the chatter died down.
The powerhouses turned their heads to look at Gu Qingshan together.
The King of Roland also put away the serious look on his face and walked towards Gu Qingshan with a smile.
"The first person to understand the conspiracy of the evil spirits turned out to be a teenager, and he was still a rare convict - in fact, there has been no conviction on the continent for a long time, and the church of the convict is only an empty shell."
He drew his salute sword and lightly touched Gu Qingshan's shoulder.
"Rod, I have a question." Roland's King Road.
"Your Majesty, please speak." Gu Qingshan Road.
King Roland said, "I wonder why you are suspicious of the gifts of the demons, you must know that this is a custom that has been practiced for thousands of years, and everyone has long been accustomed to it. ”
Gu Qingshan said: "Your Majesty, this kind of thing for not working hard will always make me feel uneasy, and I am not afraid to speculate about it with the greatest malice." ”
The King of Roland thought for a moment.
"You're right, the reason why we are paralyzed by evil spirits is actually because of our strength, which makes us arrogant and prejudiced, but I promise, not in the future."
After he finished speaking, he tapped Gu Qingshan's shoulders heavily with his sword, and said in his mouth:
"I, King of Roland, Friedrich, hereby canonize Baron Rhodes as Viscount of the Saint Laurent Empire, and for his contribution to the salvation and service of all mankind, the Count of the White Nights."
"May your heart be like a blazing light, removing all darkness from the world, so that the night of all beings will never fall."
Gu Qingshan was slightly stunned.
The King of Roland put away his sword, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Actually, the earl is not worthy of your contributions, but you are only fifteen years old, and I can't give you too much power, that will ruin you—do you have an opinion?" ”
"Nope." Gu Qingshan Road.
"Very good, it's wartime, everything is simple, but you will not be short of what you should receive, and someone will take you to get it."
"Yes."
"By the way, what do you want to do next? The territory I gave you is one of the best resorts in the Empire, so go check it out. ”
"Your Majesty, I discovered the evil ghost thing first, and I want to go to the battlefield."
The King of Roland smiled.
Those powerhouses also looked at Qingshan with a slight smile in their eyes.
"A nice little guy." The red-haired beauty licked her lips and said softly.
"Yes, the new condemner." The old farmer sighed.
The attitude of the King of Roland was also a little kinder, and he said:
"Rod, you are a good child, you will become a pillar of the empire in the future, there is no doubt about that, but now you are only fifteen years old, you need to be protected, through the tempering of time, grow well, you also need to meet some like-minded friends, I even hope you can harvest some love here."
Gu Qingshan wanted to say something, but the King of Roland had already patted him on the shoulder and said:
"Don't worry, so many of our strong men are here, and it's enough for us to have the war—come here, take our new earl down, he needs a dress to show his status."
