91 Lucky
Black clouds covered the sky, and the sound of the knocking in the cemetery had weakened compared to the beginning, and some of them may have broken free, or had been torn apart by the force of the shock.
After the "pioneers" were awakened from the dirt, they began to wander aimlessly, so that a large number of dead people had infiltrated the forests of Mount Oliver near the cemetery.
Those who recovered in the cemetery, after finally breaking free from the coffin, were limited by the sturdy iron railing, and only a few found the existence of the door.
The fences that once protected their resting place have now become their limits.
Of course, this also has to do with the fact that these dead corpses have no IQ to speak of, and compared to the resurrection of souls, this soulless ones are currently lacking in IQ despite their great momentum.
The battle was over for the time being, but Charles did not reclaim the ability to descend on the long night, he seemed to have forgotten it for a while, the blue magnificent eyes were like ghosts, exuding brilliant brilliance in the dark night, but because of the shade of the trees, the gentleman a few hundred meters away could only see a little "starry".
"What do you want?"
After Charles's words fell, the other party opened his mouth without any pause. However, after saying this, he added: "I hope you can hurry, we had better close this deal in ten minutes." ”
Hearing this, he was not prepared to "deny". However, it is also an indisputable fact that the assassin came to attack.
It's just that in front of business, Charles doesn't have time to worry about this kind of thing.
"About your specific situation, and why are you being hunted by the Church?"
Without any disguise, he asked directly about his purpose.
This kind of thing doesn't need to be disguised, because the other party has already discovered his identity, so it is very reasonable to ask about it.
"For we are children of the gods." The voice said a word of nonsense, but without asking Chardo, he added an explanatory sentence again: "The children of the gods are descended from the ancient gods, and the ancient gods were once the world-masters, and the one in the Church of Thorns was one of them, but he betrayed them. ”
He didn't talk about his specific situation, but he was a little off-topic, but Charles didn't care about this, because the other party's off-topic running was more noticeable.
"Betrayal?"
"Yes, more than a thousand years ago, that one colluded with the Void Evil God to break into our world and launch a catastrophe of destruction."
"That is a conspirator?"
"In a sense, yes, but the reason he did it was for the sake of humanity."
Charles's words were a little stunned.
"In the last era, there were many blasphemers in the world, and the gods intended to cleanse the world completely, but it was the Lord of Thorns who destroyed their plans, although this method was not very bright."
"Although we are the children of the gods, we are only getting their inheritance, but we are not real blood relatives, history cannot be distorted, and I myself have no ill will towards the Thorn Church, and I even think that the church is doing the right thing."
The tone of his voice had always seemed rational, but it was the opposite of what Charles had guessed before, and he was eager to splash all the dirty water.
Without any further questioning, Charles told the real theme of the conversation
"But we're still against him."
"Why? He's ready to kill them all? ”
"No," said the other man again, something that surprised Charles.
"Because he wants to turn all the sons of the gods into true gods."
This sounded very confusing, but after a little thought, I realized that something was wrong.
The other said something at the same time.
"He's going to resurrect the ancient gods at the cost of us lucky ones, oh, how lucky. ”
Charles was stunned when he heard this, and the other party didn't seem to be ready to delay anything, and began to talk about it in a faster tone. Charles frowned at this.
The conversation did not last long, however, when it was interrupted by a dazzling white light in the direction of the city, which seemed to be some sort of method of the church.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Charles dodged and left from the branch, and the other party quickly began to save his companions.
……
The morning glow shone obliquely from the blackstone brick corners, and the horse-drawn carriage drove along the road leading to the area where the estate was located, passing one passerby after another.
The middle-aged driver in his overalls sat in front, pulling the reins and looking back at the slightly tired young man in the carriage, with a smile that all men know.
"It's a good place to lick the velvet, sir, and you have a good eye."
"yes, it couldn't be better." The young man replied weakly in the carriage.
"You didn't sleep all night last night?"
"Seems like yes, I don't quite remember."
"That's amazing." The coachman praised him sincerely, and then seeing that the guest was not interested in speaking, he said without words: "I heard that there was a dead man in the cemetery outside the city last night." ”
"Oh?" The young man in the car raised his eyebrows and asked curiously, "What kind of corpse?" ”
"It's the dead who are alive, you can hear the coffin being smashed from afar, and the guardian knights of the church have gone a lot, and it is said that the archbishop is alarmed." The coachman replied, "I saw it clearly when I was squatting in the clock street,"
"Specifically?" The young man asked.
"I don't know, I don't dare to get up to it." The coachman shrugged: "A lot of people in the city were taken aback, even the workers who had been making trouble were affected, and you probably didn't know that there was a lot going on yesterday......"
Listening to the coachman's speech, the young man looked at the morning street scene outside the car window, and his expression was slightly dazed.
He's Charles, of course.
After getting some information from the child of the gods, Charles left the "crime scene" with the help of death teleportation and the scattered corpses.
After walking back to the city, in order to hide his whereabouts, he deliberately went to a chaotic but famous red light district in the city to spend the night. It was only then that we returned to the Cranston Manor.
Listening to the words from the coachman's mouth, although Charles was a little curious about the situation in the city yesterday, he didn't have the heart to inquire much at the moment, but kept muttering about the words he heard yesterday.
……
"Spirituality can be destroyed, divinity is immortal, the gods are not really dead, their divinity has always been controlled by the Church, waiting for the day of recovery."
……
"It is absolutely impossible for us to join the church, because as we move up the ranks within the church, we will get closer and closer to the end of being devoured. So, even though the Church is the guardian of the world order, we still need to resist it, and we must also resist it, so that the Church does not succeed. ”
……
"Procrastination is useless, this fate is irreversible the moment you join the church and receive that power. Even if you don't choose to be promoted, they will find all kinds of reasons to get you promoted. ”
……
"You have such strength, I'm afraid you're already in the fifth ring, right? Which Son of God are you? Kilmond, the god of winter? Or Asaph, the god of death? These are the two ancient gods who are good at both cold and death. But if that's the case, then what awaits you in the end is not as simple as devouring. ”
……
"Crack? Unless, when that moment comes, you swallow the will of the gods, but how is that possible? Or you can stay away from the church, as we did, and tap into our gifts in other ways. ”
……
"It's just that if you have already joined the church, then I am afraid that it will be impossible to defect again, the Thorn Oath is not so easy to fool, and the power of the gods of the inheritance will also fundamentally put an end to your other paths, and you can only accept the cultivation from heaven."
……
"It's not clear why a traitor resurrected the ancient gods, but it doesn't matter."
……
"Good luck, my friend."
……
After some effort, Charles finally got what he wanted, but the message was not so rosy.
"Cultivating the body step by step?" He muttered to himself, frowning unconsciously.
The church is just, but it is the justice of humanity, not an individual.
Obviously, sacrificing one or two unlucky guys for some unknown problem is not a big deal.
They didn't know each other, and there was some tension between the two sides, and Charles didn't fully believe that man's words, but he couldn't disbelieve them either.
Whether these are true or not, the children of the gods are not stable identities.
For now, leaving the church early is the way to go.
But Charles wasn't going to do that.
The time has not yet come.
Although Charles can interfere with a certain level of the church's masters by some means, it does not mean that he can really fight against the entire church.
His strength is still insufficient.
With the shuttle door, the most important thing for him now is to have a stable development environment, rather than being hunted down all over the world.
So for the time being, he still doesn't plan to act rashly - after all, he has only just joined, and he is very early before being "taken away".
There's nothing to worry about for a while.
"Besides, if it's really the resurrection of the gods, then what's the matter with the fate cards in my body?"
Charles felt that he had to find a way to figure it out, otherwise he would be unhappy even if he left the church in the future.
