"Thirty-seven people have been killed and one hundred and ninety-two injured in the mass incident in the central street of Beta. The Beta-City Integration Department of the Philip-based Communist Party declared martial law for three days, during which no one was allowed to hold group activities in public places that might cause group conflicts and endanger public safety. ”

The director of the integration department, the mayor of Beta, said that the recent conflicts between people of different faiths have intensified, and the occurrence of such a tragedy is something that the Republic of Africa and the Republic of Africa do not want to see. ”

"As the representative organization of the Crimson Faith and the administrator of the Divine Plateau, it is indispensable to ensure that all parties live in harmony and love each other. ”

"Mayor Stan calls on all gods to strictly abide by the laws of the Divine Fall Plateau, regardless of the level of power, regardless of the level of power. Any act of sowing discord and creating antagonism is contrary to the right path of faith, and it is not the desire of the gods to harm others in the name of the gods. ”

He also said that the relevant departments are strictly and thoroughly investigating the responsible persons and murderers of the incident that day, regardless of their beliefs and status, they are all equal before the law, and they will be punished with justice, and they must comfort the souls of the victims. At the same time, he revealed that it is not ruled out that there are evil gods who are plotting and instigating trouble, and residents are welcome to actively report it. ”

In the intensive care ward of the hospital, Kane Danhitt stared intently at the screen on the wall, and the news broadcast by "Little Red Communication" made his heart tumble and difficult to calm down for a long time.

"Aha, it's finally come to this point, and the high-ups of the Crimson Church are really like rats in the bellows at this time, and they are angry at both ends. ”

The voice in his heart came out again, making Danhitt angry and frightened, but he had to rejoice.

In the final battle of the War of the Dead, he was shattered by the shock wave of the magic guide explosives, and he was rescued by this guy by hanging his breath.

For his heroic deeds, the Phillips awarded him the Order of the Exemplary Combatant of the Special Class, and he also received the highest level of medical care, and it is said that even a certain saint gave blood.

Up to now, he has been lying in the hospital bed for more than half a month, from the initial dazed to now conscious, and his body has gone from being unconscious to now being able to get out of bed and move. The guy had been huddled under his mind, observing the changes in his body and sharing all his perceptions.

Danhit roared in his heart: "What the hell do you want to do!?"

"We are one, Kane," the voice said, "I am full of contradictions just like you. It's an interesting choice of which path is the right one. ”

Contradiction......

Danhitt groaned lowly, indeed, he was now conflicted in his heart, and he felt that his crimson faith was wavering.

The power that reverberated in his heart, the voice, the figure, was undoubtedly the Crimson Lady, who had been favored by the Crimson Lady and had even heard the oracle!

But the content of the oracle contradicted the teachings he believed in, the path explained by his teachers, and what he learned while in bed. Today's events, he was sure to be triggered by other Crimson believers who received the oracle, and the Crimson faith, which was originally as firm as iron, now divided into two different directions, making him a little afraid of the future after he healed from his injuries.

This fear seems to have begun to overwhelm the terrible reality that the soul is controlled by this voice.

"Kane, take your medicine!"

A crisp call interrupted his thoughts, and the slender figure of Su Qing came to him with a faint fragrance.

"You're watching the news again! You are now in the most critical period of recovery, you have to lie down obediently, how many times do you have to say before you are obedient!"

This is a girl of less than twenty years old, and her ordinary appearance is set off by a plain green robe and a hairbande of the same color, which makes her particularly touching and amiable. Although his face was cold, a warm current was injected into Danhit's heart.

Danhitt shook his head in horror: "Don't tell me it's that slime visceral repair fluid again!"

"It's a new medicine that's been freshly purified and won't make you grow worms in your stomach," the nurse said, turning off the screen, taking out a jelly-like translucent ointment, reaching out to pinch his mouth and shoving the ointment into his mouth. A series of actions in one go, extremely sharp.

The palm with the girl's body fragrance slapped lightly on his mouth, and the whole tube of ointment entered his mouth, and the little nurse grinned: "Good!

Danhitt swallowed the ointment in a few bites and muttered, "Paisie......"

The little nurse pushed him out of bed, tidied up the quilt, and drank like a babysitter with a child: "No sugar!"

"No, it's already sweet," the voice chuckled, causing a hint of Danhitt's newfound heat to dissipate.

He coughed to hide his changes, and asked casually, "Do you know what the news said just now?"

"You know what?"

The little nurse named Paisie chattered like a sparrow: "When I came here just now, the wounded and corpses all the way, the aisle was full of blood, and I almost fell down! What do you think about these people, everyone was still a family a while ago, and now they are divided into two factions to fight for life and death for what kind of co-ownership system, how stupid is it!"

"Speaking of which, those adventurers are even more hateful, they know that they are strong, they have no sense ......of proportion, and they are basically civilians who die! Speaking of which, I am also an adventurer, but I am not as violent as them, and I will not treat civilians as human beings."

After settling him, the little nurse, who was originally an apprentice of the herb druid, patted him and said, "The hospital is not manpowered, I have to go over to help, I must not be obedient!"

Danhit finally couldn't help but protest: "Don't treat me like a child!"

"Yes......"

The little nurse looked left and right, quickly kissed him on the face, and said with a red face: "You are a big hero, but in my hands, you are a child!"

The little nurse ran out of the ward with a crisp laugh, and Danhitt's heart was pounding, and she muttered in a low voice: "She, she kissed me." ”

"You have the sour smell of love in your heart, it's really uncomfortable", the voice reappeared: "But it's also really funny, it makes your soul fuller and more alive." ”

But he is a puppet and is not qualified to enjoy such love......

Danhitt was entangled by this extreme contradiction again, and was momentarily stunned.

I don't know how long it took, but the shadow that touched my heart reappeared.

Is it over so soon?

Danhitt was feeling strange, and she leaned over to the bed, looked at him with strange eyes, and whispered a word.

That's definitely not human words!

The strange overlapping sound, which seemed to carry a cold aura from the Netherworld, coupled with her strange and cold gaze, made Danhitt's hair stand on end at that moment.

It was strange that he understood her words......

"Son of Lies, I convey his greetings to you on behalf of the Count. ”

Before Danhitt could call out "who are you?", he lost his physical perception, and only a very vague wisp of consciousness remained.

Replaced by that guy!

I vaguely heard the guy say in the same voice: "I knew someone was coming, so just tell me if there's anything." ”

This overlap is...... Abyssal Language!

The other party is either a devil or a half-devil!

She disguised herself as Paisi, and what did she do with Paisi!?

Panic and anger condensed Danhitt's consciousness, and the son of lies clearly sensed his thoughts, and actually asked for him: "What happened to this person?"

Danhitt gained a little vision, and when he saw this "Paisie", he said disapprehantly, "It's burned." ”

As if thinking that the son of lies was worried about safety, "Paisie" parted her hands, revealing a large white chest and pink underwear tied with a bow: "Don't worry, it was burned after being stripped naked." The clothes are all hers, and there will be absolutely no leaks. ”

Danhitt felt himself burning: "No ——!"

The Son of Lies sends a somber laugh to Dancit, and at the same time says to "Paisie", "So, what does the Count want to do?"

"The Empress is on the throne, and the Count will travel to the wider battlefield, and he needs your help. ”

"Congratulations to the Earl, who he has to deal with. ”

"Of course, it's a rebellion against the royal party, what an irony, the people on the list are all the queen's most loyal supporters, but when the queen becomes the queen, they become the objects that must be eradicated. ”

"If you just let me get out of here, there shouldn't be any need for a half-demon killer like you to deliver the news, right?"

"It's worthy of being a child of lies, yes, before leaving, we still have to partner up to do a big vote. ”

"Tell me about ......"

"The Duke of Prell will be back soon, and the Earl's inside line will push the Duke to come to comfort the wounded of the War of the Dead, and you have done a great job, and you will definitely come to comfort you. ”

"Assassinate the Duke of Prell?"

"Of course it's not that stupid, we just need to make an explosion, and it's best to hurt the duke, if not, just make as many casualties as possible. ”

"What's the point?"

"Even if you are lying in bed, you should know the situation in Beta, right? The contradiction between the believers of the Crimson Lady and the adventurer is already very acute, as long as you scare the Duke of Prell again, he will definitely deal a heavy blow. Either side will weaken his power. Don't worry, it's not for you to die, the Count will give you a stand-in puppet, which was obtained at a great price. ”

"Does Earl McGore have such a vendetta against Duke Prell?"

"I don't know, but I don't feel it that strongly, I'm afraid it's just a ...... A meat dog, yes, a meat dog," said Paissy, "now the Count must turn his head to catch other prey, and if he lets it go completely, the meat dog may turn into a fierce dog." Once you've cleaned up the prey, it's going to be a hassle to turn around and deal with the meat dog, so the best thing to do is to make it weaker first. ”

"It's the best of both worlds," exclaimed the Children of Lies.

Not ——!

Danhitt's turn from anger to fear means that he loses his usefulness and his soul will be completely destroyed!

The Child of Lies said: "To be honest, I still have a little nostalgia for this place, and I want to continue to watch a lot of interesting things." ”

"Paisie" smiled: "The stage under the empress is wider, and more interesting things are waiting for you." ”

The Son of Lies didn't answer, but reached into "Paisie's" clothes: "It's a pity that this mortal, like this, part of me is very interested in her. ”

"Paisie" lowered her body to make it more convenient for the child of lies, and said with her eyebrows stretched: "I didn't expect that the son of lies is also interested in mortal flesh~ desire, if you like, I can serve you like this." ”

Danhit instantly threw away his fear and roared, "Bastard, don't blaspheme Paisie!"

"It's good, it's imperfect, but it's true," the son of lies' hand kneaded, and the touch passed on to Danhitt, plunging him into a whirlpool of anger, pain, and greed.

The next moment, "Paisie" trembled, her eyes widened, and she looked at the child of lies in disbelief: "You ......"

Danhitt was also stunned, he clearly felt that "his" hand tore open "Paisie's" chest, shattered his ribs, and held his beating heart!

"When did you get the illusion that I was one of the Earl's subordinates?

The Son of Lies sneered: "Stand-in puppet, even if it's true, when the time comes, I'll be finished." McGore wanted to make trouble for the Duke of Prell and kill me, and he was really thoughtful. ”

The corners of "Paisie's" mouth were bleeding, and her face began to distort, and circles of blue and black scales appeared: "I don't have ......"

"I know you're not lying, but who knows what McGore will do," said the Son of Lies, "of course, given that McGore really needs people, he really wouldn't just throw me away." ”

"Paisie's" white chest also began to grow scales, and she said with difficulty: "Why, why ......"

The Child of Lies sneered: "I said, things are very interesting here, I still want to watch it." The stage on the Empress's side is indeed wider, but no new drama can be staged, even if it is a subtle lie, it is not interesting to repeat it. ”

"Earl, Earl won't, let you go......"

"It's not a bother you to worry about ......"

As the Child of Lies spoke, he sent a strong thought to Danhitt: "It's your turn. ”

Danhitt's consciousness instantly returned to his body, and "Paisie" felt something, and gray and black smoke overflowed all over his body, this is the power of the abyss!

"For Paisie——!"

Without hesitation, Danhitt used all his strength to crush the heart in his hand.

The half-demon let out a terrible cry, completely revealing the form of the half-demon, and she broke free from Danhit's hand, and even though a large hole was opened in her chest, and the heart inside turned into a mass of minced flesh, she still did not fall.

The half-demon staggered to the window, trying to break through it. Danhitt's blood boiled, and his divine power surged in every inch of flesh and blood, breaking the black iron railing at the head of the bed with one hand, and at the same time releasing a spiritual thorn, throwing it with all his might.

The iron rod wrapped in cold light pierced the half-demon's head like a crossbow arrow, carrying her body out of the way, nailing it to the wall.

The half-demon almost burst his eardrum with a pre-death howl, and the doctors and nurses outside rushed in and shouted the same decibels.

The half-demon had fully revealed its true form, covered in pitch-black scales, emitting a faint gray-black smoke, and the sharp, long nails of its toes and claws were frantically tearing at the walls, gradually slowing down until it twitched unconsciously with its body.

Danhitt struck a blow and lay back on the bed, his body aching sharply and his consciousness blurred.

"Why ......"

He still kept a shred of sobriety, and was unusually puzzled by the actions of the Children of Lies.

The child of lies chuckled: "I said, I want to continue watching the play, this is something I have never seen before, how can I give up this great opportunity?"

Danhitt said hatefully: "What is there to see? If you can't run away, the earl will definitely take revenge on you and tell the Duke of Prell your details." ”

"Leave me alone, I will be able to deal with it", said the child of lies, "If it is you, is your faith so shaken?"

"The church and the believers have been divided, and Beta City will soon be empty", Danhitt's mood became extremely bitter: "There is nothing to be done at the top, Ms. Crimson seems to ...... It seems that something is wrong. ”

"No way?"

The Child of Lies sneered: "What is this turmoil? In the past several epochs, the church has really split internally, which time has it not been a river of blood? Now, what?"

The Son of Lies said in a deep voice: "Are there fights between the high-ups? Are the merchants hoarding? Is the basic order of the city collapsing? Although there are dead and wounded in the streets, the hospital's response to the wounded is orderly, everything is under control." ”

"I don't feel like the church hierarchy is at a loss for what to do. On the contrary, I don't see any response, and the order can be so stable, which shows that they have a lot of money and can still leave no traces. ”

"But...... Paisie", pain poured into Danhitt's consciousness again.

The Son of Lies said disdainfully: "Even when Erika is the most stable, it can't avoid the infiltration of spies." ”

"It's been a month since the end of the war, and the military control on communications has not been lifted, and people can only talk to each other on the Fallen Plateau, not send text messages, and I'm sure the calls will be monitored. ”

"Until now, there is still only a fee for the ...... That is, the church has the right to publish news, and other news agencies must be connected to the Crimson News Agency, and direct release is not allowed. ”

"What's the most important thing? Is the regiment in chaos? Not only is there no chaos, but there is still some kind of big contest, and the officers and men are busy improving their strength. ”

"Your bosses and subordinates come to visit you from time to time, and you don't pay attention to what they say?There are so many adventurers in the Legion, and there are immigrants from the Storm Isles, are they at odds with each other? No? ”

"Don't you usually hold life meetings with your subordinates? People from the Legion talk to you, isn't that just a life meeting? You have been doing ideological work with your subordinates for so long, and you don't realize that your comrades-in-arms are also doing ideological work on you? I am really amazed by the grasp of the Legion by the top management of the church. ”

"But why does Lady Crimson want me to call Him by his name, pray to Him, and follow His commands", Danhitt was still puzzled by Lady Crimson's direct communication with him.

"That's what's interesting," laughed the Child of Lies, "from the very beginning, your soul was stimulated with the power of thorns, and I sensed that the power of faith was completely different from the previous powers. ”

"You've tried the Thorn Divine Power, the Destruction Divine Power, and the Death Divine Power respectively, and the sensing of the latter two powers is very weak, only the first one is obvious. But the three powers are so harmoniously integrated under the crimson divine power, which is very consistent with the rumor that the crimson divine power is woven by multiple priesthoods. ”

"So what kind of priesthood does the crimson divine power that is finally woven correspond to? Eros? Perhaps, but it is definitely not as simple as the previous Eros. ”

"Combined with the Crimson Doctrine corresponding to each divine power, I have long felt that the Crimson Lady is definitely not an ordinary god. ”

"All kinds of teachings correspond to the heart of mortals, and if such a god is to exist, it is impossible to maintain it just by having the heart of a god. ”

"So, I've been speculating all the time, the Crimson Church ...... That is, Fei Gong, through some special method, artificially created the Crimson Lady. ”

Danhit was stunned: "What!? absolutely impossible!"

"Don't forget, I'm the child of lies, and although I'm not a god, I'm very close to a god." Your soul changes and gives me an excellent sample for research. It is no boast to say that in addition to Fei Gong, in the entire Finn world, I am the only one who is closest to the truth of Lady Crimson. ”

"The current situation, it seems that the Fei Gong high-level control of this god has some accidents, they dare not tell the truth about Lady Crimson to the outside world, they are just carefully observing, adjusting and controlling, I believe that when Duke Prell returns, they will be able to find out the problem and repair this artificial god. ”

Danhitt thought in horror: "That is, my faith is false, made by them, and more evil than what the people of Ekami did who twisted the will of Kem?"

The Son of Lies chuckled, "Lady Crimson may be false, but are those teachings false?"

Certainly not false, those creeds gave him real power.

This frightened Danhit even more, and he couldn't sort out his thoughts for a moment.

"You, like those ignorant mortals, have not yet taken the last step," said the Children of Lies, "and the central question is, what are the gods?

Danhitt's consciousness slammed into a wall of steel, a wall that pressed down on his soul and thought it never existed.

"The higher-ups of the Fei Communist Party have not dared to reveal this wall to you, after all, it means overthrowing the order of the entire Fern world, what will they have to answer this question and how they will do it, this is what makes me curious", the thoughts of the children of lies also fluctuated slightly.

The low thoughts of the Children of Lies were like a gentle tide, gradually submerging Danhitt's consciousness: "So, Kane Danhitt, strengthen your faith, strengthen your faith as a mortal, and continue on this path, and I will go down with you." ”
