Chapter 11: The Eight Faces of the Dead

There was no Herutian League and the Byron Empire in this world, and the origin of all human civilization was born in a country called Akarandu. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Akalandu is an ancient kingdom that existed for thousands of years, during which people learned to make weapons, grow food, and establish city-states. The former Acalando was also highly prosperous for a time.

Later, the church called the Church of the Order was born, and since then, the account of knights has appeared in the main body of history.

Under the leadership of the Holy Maiden Gosya, the power of the Order grew by day, and gradually knights became the most respected profession in Akalando. The saint spread the blessings of the gods to all people, and the knight possessed power beyond ordinary people.

Those who become knights take an oath to protect Akarando forever. This prosperity lasted for a hundred years, until St. Gosia's ideas diverged with her sister Gosya. The disagreement caused a rift in their relationship, and the whole of Akarando was divided into two factions.

At first, it was only a small friction, but then it escalated, from the commoners to the aristocracy, all fighting for their beliefs. Wherever there is resistance, the seeds of hatred are sown - war breaks out. The great nobles who believed in Grua finally united and challenged the king.

The war lasted for a hundred years, and countless people were killed in the war that engulfed the entire country.

The war ended with the victory of Godia and the king's faction, and the defeated nobles were tied to the square and judged by the king himself. That judgment also meant the demise of Gruea's faith.

However, unwilling to accept defeat, Gelua used the power of the gods to make the Eye of the Abyss appear in the sky above Akalando on that day.

The Eye of the Abyss is the origin of all monsters. For a time, countless monsters that only existed in legends descended on the various city-states of Akalando, and destroyed the civilization of Akalando with the power of devastation. In just a few days, the Akarando civilization disappeared forever into history.

Later, Oz Tris, who had been exiled from Akarandu to the southern continent, established the Herutia League, and Byron Tris, who had migrated to the north, established himself as king and established a large empire of his own, the Byron Empire. This pattern has been maintained until now.

Cruas didn't stop there, and years later, an evil sect called itself the Chaos Cult emerged. They are not attached to any one power, and their whereabouts are secretive, and they travel between countries all year round.

It had only one purpose - to provoke a war between Herutia and the Byron Empire, usually by inciting a coup d'Γ©tat and assassinating the king.

The Chaos Cult is rumored to have eight leaders who claim to be the Eight Faces of the Dead, each of whom is at least as strong as the Templars. However, no one had ever seen the true faces of these eight men, and after the fight, these people would disappear for a while.

"The one you meet is supposed to be one of the eight faces of the person who commits the crime of killing, the face of killing. ”

After telling this lengthy story, Alyssa poured herself a glass of water.

The corners of Lin Qiu's eyes twitched, no wonder that the "Grim Reaper" was incredibly strong, it turned out that he was unlucky, and he met the big boss in the "Novice Village" before he started the adventure - an opponent who said that he was on the same footing!

If he could, Lin Qiu would prefer that his opponent at the beginning would be a creature like a slime, the kind that could only drop a piece of equipment if he killed it!

But thinking about it, after hearing the identity of the other party, Lin Qiu's heart also sank.

It's no fun to have such a dangerous person secretly thinking about his life. If he takes another 10,000 steps back, even if the Killing Face doesn't find him, he will have to take revenge in the future. Not only did the other party beat himself all over the body, but more importantly, he killed King Ryan in front of him.

Thinking of how to face Liya in the future, Lin Qiu felt a headache.

"What, scared?"

Alyssa looked at Lin Qiu's rolling eyes and asked.

Lin Qiu spread his hands and explained, "How could I be afraid? I was just thinking about whether to poison his meal when I took revenge, or to plant a bomb outside while he was going to the toilet." ”

"Hey, are you a knight like that?"

Alyssa had no choice but to hold her forehead, she had seen countless knights or people who wanted to become knights, Lin Qiu was definitely the most shameless one she had ever seen!

However, this is the same boy who tried to escape after breaking into the Sacred Pool and staining her innocence, and the same boy who tried his best to escape alone when he heard about the dangers of the century-old mission, but fought to the death with a Templar for the sake of a king he never knew.

In fact, in that situation, even if Lin Qiu left the queen and the princess and the princess alone, she would not be surprised. She also had to admit that the queen and the princess were able to survive because of this guy's blessing. With the style of the Chaos Sect, in order to cause war, he will definitely not let go of the royal daughter who has the right to inherit.

The loss of a nominal successor would plunge such a small country into complete devastation.

When she came back to her senses, Lin Qiu was staring at her with his only exposed left eye, and in Lin Qiu's burning gaze, a suspicious flush appeared on Alyssa's face.

The words of the Virgen Gosya rang in her ears again for a while.

- If you are naked by the opposite sex, you will either kill him or marry him.

"How...... How?"

Lin Qiu was stunned for Alyssa's sudden shyness.

But he had more important things to ask: "You're a Templar, right?"

Alyssa nodded inexplicably.

"The first candidate for the Knights of the Round Table, right?"

Alyssa added, "To be precise, after completing the Centennial Mission, you will officially become a member of the Knights of the Round Table. ”

"Great, then you must be able to guide me in my cultivation! How about we make an agreement? I'll help you complete the hundred-year task, and you teach me how to become stronger!"

Lin Qiu was afraid that Alyssa would not agree, so he continued: "Don't dislike my current strength, my brain is very good!"

"Yes, but why?"

Alyssa was puzzled, if Lin Qiu really had such determination, he would not have slipped away without saying a word a year ago. At that time, she had been looking for Lin Qiu in the royal capital for ten days, and she almost blew up her lungs!

"No why, next time I encounter that killing face again, I'll have to smash his head for him!"

Before Lin Qiu's words fell, a bell rang outside the door.

Alyssa did not answer him immediately, but closed her eyes reverently. The aftermath of the bell echoed in the cabin for a long time, adding to the sadness.

It didn't take long for a light rain to fall.

Lin Qiu suddenly realized something, and hurriedly asked, "What day is today?"

"You've been in a coma for three days, and today happens to be the day of King Ryan's funeral. ”

Hearing this, Lin Qiu immediately turned over and got out of bed, he didn't care about the pain all over his body, and pushed open the door of the wooden house: "I went out for some business, come back later." ”

Without waiting for Alyssa to respond, he ran in the direction of the castle without looking back.
