Chapter Seventy-Four: The Ascetic

Mondstadt led more than a thousand gray-haired old men forward with firm steps.

Due to the strangulation of the Trainee Paladin and the Knight of the Judge, most of the thousands of skeletons have been wiped out, so the journey is relatively safe. It was also one of the main reasons why Paul let them go.

The old man, from another point of view, is indeed a great burden, and now that they have chosen to burn their lives, Paul, as the Pope, although emotionally disapproves, the reason in his heart makes him choose to shut up.

May our Lord and the gods bless you as you forge your own path in this land of experience.

Karl's lips moved, and he watched the backs of these people finally have no exit. Even if he was in a hostile position, at this time, he also had a trace of admiration in his heart for these thousands of old men who were blatantly dying.

Judging by all circumstances, this enemy is very strong. It seems that I should immediately go back to the Viscount, and persuade the county of Ayr not to attack this place in the short term.

Just when everyone's minds were turning, the figures of thousands of old men had disappeared in front of them.

......

As the sun set in the west, an old man fell to the ground with the hunger in his stomach.

More than a thousand old men stopped at the same time and looked at the old man who had fallen to the ground.

"Stand up, we can still move forward".

"Stand up, and we will seek strength to spread the glory of our Lord and of the gods."

"Standing up, even hunger and weariness cannot defeat us".

Voices came out of the mouths of more than a thousand old men, speaking to the old man who fell to the ground.

"But I'm so tired and hungry that I can't walk." The old man who fell to the ground listened to this voice and spoke slowly to them. Hungry and tired, his voice was so soft that it seemed like a gust of wind could kill him.

The voice sounded in the ears of more than a thousand old men, and hunger and tiredness hit at the same time.

Hungry and tired turned out to be like this?.

This thought sounded in the hearts of more than a thousand old people, and they looked around at the trees and leafy branches, but the weeds were overgrown below.

"Ladies and gentlemen, have you forgotten the roots, the bark, and the leaves?" Mondstadt felt the desolation of the more than a thousand people, and spoke slowly to them.

Although the voice was a little flat due to the lack of strength, the strength in the voice was vigorous and powerful.

Grass roots, tree bark, and leaves—these three things are like a thunderbolt, and they explode in my mind.

There's also food, and it's all food, I should say.

"Ladies and gentlemen, if you are hungry, eat, and when you are tired, rest. We should follow our hearts and look for the strength that the gods have given us." Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, Mondstadt summoned all his strength and spoke loudly to them.

More than 1,000 old people turned their hearts sideways and shouted in unison: "Eat".

As soon as the words fell, they scattered in all directions, reaching out to pull the weeds on the ground, but found that they couldn't pull them out at all.

More than a thousand old men suddenly sank their hearts, and a trace of ominous quietly spread.

"Eat". Stunned by this, Mondstadt subconsciously shouted at the thousand old men, and then opened his mouth to bite a weed on the ground.

The weed snapped and swallowed it down.

Seeing this, the old men also followed suit, opening their mouths to bite off the weeds on the ground or the leaves on the trees.

The tyrannical aura spread in the body, and more than a thousand old men only felt a great change in front of them.

Countless ferocious skeletons, tigers, and dragons appeared in front of them, rolling in with the breath of death.

"Don't, don't come." A sharp voice came, and more than a hundred old men showed frightened eyes.

The creatures transformed by the tyrannical aura stepped forward in unison and slaughtered the more than a thousand old men in front of them.

In just one photo, dozens of old people were killed. At the same time, the fire burned his body, and even his soul disappeared without a trace.

Mondstadt shouted to the crowd, "This is the tyrannical power of plants, don't forget the words of Mentor Guy."

"Kill, kill them". Hundreds of people shouted in unison.

Angry faces appeared, but strange things happened, and the momentum of those skeletons suddenly increased and turned into skeleton knights.

"Step, step, step ......".

The skeleton knights launched a charge at the old man, and dozens of old men died instantly.

Mondstadt was startled, and when he looked at one of the skeleton knights that was about to rush in, he couldn't help but feel relieved at the thought that he was about to die.

Just when this relaxed emotion was rising, the scene in front of him suddenly disappeared, and dots of light appeared in the palm of his hand.

Looking around, I couldn't help but be stunned, only to see that there were only three hundred of the thousands of old men left.

"Congratulations, my believers." A vast sound came from the sky.

All three hundred people opened their eyes and looked at the sky in unison: "My lord."

"From now on, you have become an ascetic." A round of divine light slowly descended, and the sound of light came again.

Ned asked respectfully to the light, "My lord, where have those people gone?"

"Dust to dust, dust to dust". The light said as he stood in the midst of the divine light in the endless sky.

Then the conversation changed: "Since you have chosen to embark on the path of asceticism, this is the price."

"This road is dangerous, and if you are not careful, you will die, I hope you will be cautious." Bright said to the bottom.

Hearing such a stern admonition, Mondstadt and the others felt a pang in their hearts: "We will remember the will of our Lord."

As soon as the words fell, the divine light dissipated, and the light disappeared.

......

The darkness in the kingdom of God and Jia Changsheng looked at the returning light, and the corners of their mouths were full of smiles.

"Lord, is it really good to let them be human body purifiers?" Guangming looked at Jia Changsheng with a depressed face, you must know that the seven hundred people were completely annihilated, and even their souls were dissipated in this heaven and earth.

Jia Changsheng looked at the light: "This is their choice, we are just fulfilling their wishes."

"Hey". Thinking of the scene of the seven hundred old men's souls scattered, Guangming sighed again.

The darkness looked at the light of hypocrisy and hypocrisy, and couldn't help but pout: "If you get cheap here, you still sell well, you don't know how happy you are in your heart now."

"Dark、Do you know that you are annoying sometimes". Light said to the darkness.

The dark boy carefully looked at the light, and the latter was shocked: "I just like the way you hate me, but you can't do anything about me."

“......“。 The light is speechless.

walked to his divine throne and asked Jia Changsheng: "Lord, what should we do next."

"Needless to say, of course, it is to open the floodgates and release water, and continue to expand this place of training." The darkness said to Jia Changsheng without thinking.

Jia Changsheng shook his head slowly: "Paul's Ayrshire crisis has not been resolved, and if the floodgates are opened at this time, Paul must share a part of his forces here."

"So I want to take a break." After Jia Changsheng finished speaking, his gaze fell on Carl below.

The two of them followed Jia Changsheng's gaze and looked over, and one by one showed expressions that seemed to be enlightened.

"Does the Lord want to?" The darkness asked Jia Changsheng.

The corners of Guangming's mouth curled slightly, and he said very godly: "The seeds of faith have been planted, and Carl is destined to be a member of the Church of Light."

"The lord really played a good chess hand." Guangming sighed at Jia Changsheng.
