Chapter 21: The Nordic Magic Sword (8)

The rain has gradually decreased, and it is no longer the pouring rain like that, and it is raining lightly.

Jiang Muyin hesitated for a moment and walked into the rain, the only umbrella in her hand was given away by her, and now she can only go back like this.

Jiang Muyin walked on the sidewalk, the breath of rain was everywhere, filling the whole world, she took a deep breath, and the breath mixed with cold air entered her lungs and was being exhaled.

Canglan City is a very beautiful city, because it is built on the mountain, so it is easy to see the whole city from the upper town. Jiang Muyin propped up on the railing and looked at the city below, and a light fog gradually rose in the rain, and the city in the lower city area loomed.

In the past year, Canglan City has always been the most touristy city, and it is very popular in all seasons. Because the city is so beautiful, there is no space building that reaches into the sky, and the tallest building is only 50 meters. Because of the geographical structure of the mountain town, buildings that are too tall will damage the mountain structure and can easily collapse.

The city is full of art, professional gardeners build the flowers and trees of the whole city once a week, and the artistic statue of the first Duke of Canglan stands on the Capital Square in the upper city, because of his own request, the whole statue is dressed like a medieval knight noble, and the whole is dressed in heavy armor. The duke pressed his hand on the hilt of his sword and looked into the distance.

It is said that the original duke was very satisfied with this, and it was originally only the duke's own manor, but in order to let more people see it, the whole manor was moved to another place, and the area around the statue was set up as the capital square.

The world has experienced too much turmoil, and the last century was the most chaotic era, when the entire human world was divided in two.

Midgard, who had ruled the universe for nearly a thousand years, fell, and even later historians could not describe the squalor of the kingdom, where all the nobles lived in poverty and luxury, and the days of drunkenness were hell for the common people.

All the consuls of Midgard were outright tyrants, making everyone talk about the royal family. There is no absolute freedom, all scandals about royalty and nobility are not allowed to be published, and if any news agency dares to touch the head, they will all be killed before the law can be ruling.

However, it cannot be said that it was an absolutely dark age, although all the emperors of the past were tyrants, they also gave everything for the country in that position, and every emperor did not live to be fifty years old, and before that he would die a strange and violent death.

The opposition parties against the royal family called it a curse.

But no one can deny that every emperor has left the last resource for this world before he died, and that is their own crazy wisdom.

It may seem paradoxical, but it is what every emperor with the surname Gerkos does. The emperors of the past generations oppressed the people, but they were defending the people and pouring their hearts and souls into this country.

The world only saw the fact that the emperors oppressed them, but they turned a blind eye to the results of the emperors' painstaking efforts. Later historians have maintained only an objective view of this, because it seemed to them that it was normal for people of that era to think this way.

Of course, their atrocities cannot be explained by their intensity. But it is also true that the people turned a blind eye to the good intentions of Gerkos.

No one can ignore that if it weren't for Gerkos who had not been born and established the unprecedented supernation of Midgard, the thousand-year-old chaos in the universe would have continued to this day. Then it will be the darkest times.

No one can ignore the rapid development of the past thousand years, and without the patriarchs of Gerkos, today's technology would probably be realized in as many as another five hundred years. The ultimate armament: Angel Armor is a heretical idea that is impossible to achieve today.

If it weren't for Gelkos, I'm afraid that the demons would have conquered all the immigrant planets a long time ago, how could it be that they are still blocked in the border star line to this day?

Later generations can see it clearly, but those who are in that era cannot see it.

Oppression is everywhere, corruption is even more common, and things that force people to die rarely happen, but they are almost rotten to the roots. The whole country is rotten.

Once attached to the royal family and the Holy Religion of Midgart, the Messiah also had earth-shaking things. The Pope's daughter, Komuti Hisball, threw her father down and took the papal throne herself. Before that, the Messiah experienced a great schism, in which the three daughters of the former pope refused to be loyal to their sister and took away all the believers and angels who were loyal to them against Komti.

The history of the Messiah says: On that day a third of the stars lost their brilliance. This quote is from the Book of Revelation of John, which means that on that day a third of the angels rebelled against God, and the stars fell from the sky for seven days and seven nights before reaching hell.

Two years later, she started a war in the name of God, a war against Midgard.

War is like a beast released from a cage, and once it is released, it can never be put back.

After six years of war, the strength of the Messianic Cult has grown stronger and stronger, with a large infusion of technology, arms and equipment, funds, and strong military command. The current Four Dukes were the strong supporters of the Messianic War, and without their support, the war would have lasted for twenty years.

This abundant logistics and capital caused Midgard's army to retreat one after another, and the army named Salvation was invincible on the battlefield in the stars and on the ground, and many talented noble generals were cut off their horses, because it was not known who it was at the time, and everyone called the mysterious commander-in-chief the 'God of War'.

Eventually, the Redeemer army breached Midgard's capital, the Angels were nearly overwhelmed, and the Pope stepped into the temple with the god-given spear of Longinus, who sat on the throne, blood on the side of his cheek, and looked at the man with a smile on his face.

Midgard died, and the last emperor was crucified, the flames burning his dead body. The smile before death made everyone dare not look at him, and the smile of the dead man was a silent mockery of the living.

This does not mean the end, but rather the suppression of the rebellion that has lasted for more than a decade. The patriarch of Gerkos is dead, but the family still has many direct collateral children. They rioted wildly, gathering the last of their armies to drag the whole world into hell.

The last remnants of the people of Gerkos were accepted by the Church with the last resources, and recuperated in the Eastern Universe, with the vicissitudes as the boundary.

The Pope also officially changed the name of the country: 'Messianic Kingdom' to 'Heavenly Holy Kingdom', and quickly developed the embryonic Crusader Army, which was an army composed entirely of knights, and was originally expected to be several times more powerful than the Salvation Army.

However, after the Crusader suffered the defection of the marshal who was the knight king, the entire army was on the verge of collapse. You must know that the entire Crusader Forbidden Army was gathered by relying on the knightly path of being a knight king, and at that time, the person who taught every young knight who was new to the Crusader Forbidden Army was the knight king.

One can imagine what the entire Crusader Army will look like after learning the news of the Knight King's defection. Every knight of the Crusader Forbidden Army has a noble chivalry spirit and a firm belief in making it a lifelong goal. And the knight king, who was considered by all knights to have the noblest knighthood, defected, which means that his knighthood is no longer noble, and it also shows that all knighthood is never noble at all.

The knights' mental state was close to collapse at one point. In this state, how can he compete with the huge military redemption army for the position of the first town and state force?

In the defection of the Red Dragon in '82, there are countless eyewitnesses who can prove that he defected with a survival pod. Less than half a year later, Gerkos announced that he had found a son with direct blood and respected him as the crown prince.

It is conceivable who the red dragon took away back then.

This was followed by a large body of evidence, all of which proved that the Knight King Hilton Pendragon was a close friend of the last emperor of Midgard, the best court dancer of the time, and the last owner of the Knight King's bloodline.

You know, when Hilton was still at the top of the hierarchy, there was no such news. It can be said that the wall fell down and everyone pushed it. At that time, the media was almost smearing and insulting Hilton in the posture of beating the water dogs, and even the people of the national propaganda department strongly supported it.

It wasn't until the black dragon recovered from his injuries and was discharged from the hospital that he beat them all up and did not stop talking. The black dragon is still proud, still like an upright knight. He returned to the Crusader headquarters that day and swore in front of everyone that he would kill Hilton before he took his last breath. Until then, no one is allowed to insult him.

For so many years, he had been looking for Hilton, but the man seemed to have really disappeared, or had died in an unknown corner.

But the black dragon never gave up the belief to find him, never.
