The fluttering of the red maple seemed to freeze the space, and a piece of the body of the Lord of Life surrendered to the surrounding life element, firmly nailing the entire space around her to the world.

Then it is a backtracking of space.

Sheila didn't say a word, and a thick ball of death elemental burst out, but its purple-black darkness had just poured out of her body for less than half a second, and it instantly turned into a golden-green life element. The diametrically opposed annihilation scorched fiercely on Sheila's body, and in the xenomorphic flash of elemental annihilation, Sheila screamed and burst out. But having lost her spatial control, she could no longer maintain her speed, and the space she was in was already firmly imprisoned by the resonance of the life element.

Without a hint of hesitation, Sheila raised her hand and shook off the staff in her hand. The dark metal staff body drew an inky trajectory with an indomitable tragic momentum, and she threw the peerless staff that had accompanied her for more than five hundred years without hesitation or a trace of emotional fluctuations. If she hadn't been resolute, she would have died.

The staff struggled through the space, and to the Phantom's frown, the staff that apparently already possessed the spirit would not hesitate to sacrifice itself to save its master—this was not in line with his worldview, and it stands to reason that such an extremist necromancer would not have been obedient to her.

He had always believed and despised the people who lived in darkness, who were not qualified and would not have any positive feelings. They act only by the exchange of interests and the gains and losses of loyalty.

Sheila, who had left herself in the air to continue to retreat, made a strange movement, and after losing her weapon, she pressed her hands to her chest, and her expression became extremely painful. It was as if something was about to burst out of her body.

"My lord is ......above," the phantom whispered in horror, "why do you care so much about your own life?!"

The winged demon wings behind him fluttered slightly. The gorgeous but thin body disappeared in an instant. And just as he was approaching Sheila, who had lost her perception of the outside world due to inexplicable pain, a fiery red heavy sword stood in front of the phantom.

But this time. The exhausted apparition was not spitting out a haughty threat, nor was it raising its ornate staff. He looked steadily into the eyes of Ben Leon, who was thirty centimeters taller than himself, and was silent, his wings retracted. He leaped backwards and landed firmly on the deck of the Crystal Garden.

The crystal garden is extravagant and gorgeous, and each crystal window shines with rich and gorgeous light, but there is no throbbing of life in it. Despite its material beauty, it is as dead and lifeless as a shipwreck in the depths of the sea.

Lovian suddenly understood why Sheila was in such pain-

"Ahh

Cries of pain. A crystal clear emerald ball of light was pulled out of the depths of her body by Sheila's hands that had touched countless deaths.

"The Origin of Life?!"

Even the most powerful necromancer in the world still did not give up the human body, nor did she give up the beauty of being an individual life. The pursuit of eternal life and eternal beauty was the reward of her allegiance, and this reward also became her most fatal weakness, that is, she did not completely turn her body into a skeleton and a body of death mixed with the elements of death like the famous necromancers in history, and although her body was soaked in death, the core of her life was still the golden green element of life.

That meant that every day she was a necromancer, her body would have to endure the burning pain of the annihilation of her life source and her own power form. And she, who has chosen eternal life, really thinks that this endless pain is worthy of her eternal beauty?

Sheila smiled maniacally. Throw the life element in your hand forward. At the same time, her long red hair instantly lost its luster and turned a withered gray-white.

The space finally loosened, when its own life elements resonated with the life elements scattered by the leaves of the World Tree. The red maple leaf, who didn't have much wisdom, also hesitated for a moment. The speed at which she transformed the elements slowed down suddenly, but there was no doubt that it had provided her with enough opportunities.

Green seeped into the transparent space, and Sheila finally left a resentful look at the phantom. The figure faded away in the flickering of space.

Red Maple Leaf hung in mid-air in a daze, unable to find her target, and she did not continue to transform the life elements around her. The Phantom waved to her wearily. The red maple leaf was re-dispersed into three dim-colored Origin Life Secret Cards in a sound like a flip book, and returned to the phantom.

Ben Leon looked indifferently at the phantom in front of him. He looked at Lovian beneath him again. Then he disappeared from the sky as when Sheila disappeared.

The Phantom reached out a sweat-soaked hand and silently grasped the railing of the crystal garden, as if he had been exhausted by the proud movements he had taken a moment ago. At this moment, it was already so difficult for him to even support his body.

So now, how much strength does he have left? Is it possible for him to defeat him now?

A flash of bizarre thought struck through his mind, and then grabbed his attention firmly.

"Brady Mun!"

The sound amplified by magic fell like a waterfall, bringing waves of indescribable shock to the empty grassland full of life.

Lovian looked up coldly.

"Don't assume that I'm protecting you. He held his hands on the railing of the crystal garden, beads of sweat still coming down from the corners of his sideburns, "I'm just protecting the 'superego' you don't know yet." You don't want to die quietly while we don't know it, so how are we going to deal with 'that person' together in the future?"

The sails of the Crystal Garden finally moved, and the surrounding of her massive body gradually flickered with patches of colored light that rolled up as space distorted, like countless butterflies of different colors enveloping her. Moments later, the space returned to a mirror-like calm, and the Phantoms and Crystal Gardens left Seon Pass for good.

；

One of the knights took off his helmet and the outermost layer of heavy plate armor. He placed his hands on the chest of the remains of Ulysses II. Silently reciting a mantra that no one can understand, gradually. A watery glow enveloped Ulysses, and then straightened his remains. It seemed that in the next second he would be able to open his eyes in this layer of water.

But the more the illusion of this impossible scenario at this moment, the heavier the pain will befall the hearts of every person in the Temple of the Earth.

"Who would have guessed that we would be so vulnerable in the eyes of the enemy...... Our strongest warriors, sharpest weapons, strongest armor, are all so worthless to them. Kelly's voice had completely dissipated the choked sobs she had had, and the knights around her were embarrassed by her low and calm tone, "Yoro is arrogant and has no one in his eyes, and we have finally awakened us with the life of our beloved Ulysses. ”

As she spoke, she picked up the red lotus from Ulysses' feet. Although her strength was still some distance from Ulysses II, she was still strong enough to awaken the seven red lotuses from the shock and confusion of her master's body.

The gray spiritual fire lit up violently at the tip of the spear of the Red Lotus Falling God. Silent screams poured out of the gun. With this violent gesture, Kelly forcibly severed its connection with its previous master.

As if there was some kind of tacit understanding, the knights around Kelly fell to their knees on one knee in front of the young girl, their right hands touching their hearts.

"I will not endorse your loyalty, nor will I accept the allegiance of any of you. At this moment, I am just one of the glorious descenders of the Lord among us, sharing with you a vision of devotion and sacrifice to the Lord. Her words were as much like a blurt out of herself as some kind of formal eulogy, "Raphael, Zellwig, Larisman......"

The knight named by name beats his chest with his hand to show his identity. But there were still a few people who didn't hear back. Those were the Templars lying behind them, no longer breathing.

"Your loyalty belongs to my Lord, your life belongs to my Lord, and your time will be eternal waiting for the light of the Lord to return. Me, Kelly Theodore Slivett (Spirit). I hope you and I will advance and retreat together in the glory. ”

"We are willing to work with you to advance and retreat. ”

The knights said in unison.

As fourth-rank knights, each of them occupies an important position in the Earth Knights and the Temple Civil Division. And as the most elite force of the Earth Temple, at this moment, it is recognized and allegiance to Kelly's new pope identity. It has already shown that the Earth Temple has been renewed again.

"But according to the 500-year tradition of the Temple of the Earth, the pope must have at least five years of experience working as a diocesan official before he can hold the office. I asked myself if I couldn't break this rule. So until I was formally appointed, the affairs of the temple were overseen by Patriarch Raphael. Your Excellency Captain Gregory. Upon returning to the Church, please immediately summon the five cardinal and just bishops of the Diocese, the Diocese of Victoria and the United Islands of the North, the Diocese of Rinhai in the East, the Diocese of Central Osiria, the Diocese of South Osiria, and the clergy above the white priesthood in all regions to the Epiphax. Discuss the future of His Majesty and our new program.

"The above is my construction, and the following is my command. ”

Kelly raised her hand, and the dark red red lotus fell into her hand. This spear is not only one of the most powerful weapons of the Earth Temple, but also a symbol of the iron blood and authority of the papal decree.

"As of today, the diocese of Central Osiria is dissolved, with the Grimmin Peak of the Burial Mountains as the focal point of the east-west border. To the east is the diocese of Minal, where the bishop of the diocese is headed by Miss Chris Vista, and to the west is the diocese of the South of Linhai, which is headed by the Bishop of the Diocese of East Linhai, His Excellency Sylvester, and at the same time the diocese of the East of Linhai is dissolved, after all, we should not interfere with the territory of the elven king.

"The border of the Diocese of South Osiria has been moved to the south, and the territory of the former Empire of Georgia has been transferred to the Southern Diocese, and I am the bishop of the diocese. The New Southern Church was renamed the Blyswan, above. ”

She didn't give herself the slightest time to breathe, and she immediately shouted to Lovian, who was looking at her from afar:

"Mr. Lovian, do you have time to listen to me?"

Lovian nodded from afar, flapped his wings and slid over.

He had almost guessed what it was. The change to the Temple of Earth may have been decided a long time ago, and the death of Ulysses II was just an opportunity. Returning the clergy to the Historicist does not mean anything to the Elves who believe in the World Tree, and the Temple will not receive any spiritual leadership from the Elves at all. But he was able to at least mentally ease the conflict with the Historicists, a mysterious organization with no weak power and inextricable links to the Crusaders.

"Mr. Lovian, the mistake made by the teacher. We have already paid it back at a price. Now, can you listen to my advice without contempt for us?"

Lovian raised his eyebrows, "Now that we've learned our lesson." Naturally, I have no ill will towards you. Of course, sympathy for you is an insult to you. So I decided to talk to you on an equal footing. Miss Kelly, the next thing you want to ask me is whether or not the Black Wings are going to rally in the South after this incident, and I can give you a positive answer. ”

Kelly nodded steadily, not looking surprised-

"Well, then, I think you remember the promise you made to the temple in the past—to leave the heavy business of the diocese to us. She seemed to show a meaningful smile for a moment, but then it was annihilated by the gloomy atmosphere, "Please don't worry about the matter of thought control. Because of what the teacher said before his death, when he passed away, he returned the Red Lotus to the Holy Land, and the sealing stones we held were also returned. A series of structural reforms were carried out over a period of twenty years, culminating in the return of the Temple to the tradition of 500 years ago, 10,000 years ago—no longer an independent political structure, and no longer existed as the papacy. If I had been alive at that time, I would have been the Chief Priest of the Earth Temple, the Holy Pope, not the Pope with his own territory and sovereignty. ”

Lovian looked at the body of Ulysses II lying in the middle of the knights. I also sighed in my heart.

Although there is not much contact with this man, there is no doubt that he is a formidable warrior and a good leader. His concept of the overall situation and his views on current affairs undoubtedly have a new concept that surpasses too many people. And perhaps the greatest thing in his life, and the most worthy of his name, was to educate the young girl in front of Lovien as his heir.

Blythevan I. The lord of this temple, who is full of the magnificence of ruined miè and the graceful splendor of the troubled times, will spend the next ten years staining this ancient religion with his smile and the mystery under his smile. Join the Sanskrit sound of the last days with the storm of faith charm. As a result, her name is like that of a hero who has awakened from an ancient time. It has a golden name engraved in the history books and the Temple of the Holy Spirit in later generations.

"The teacher told me that since the Temple of Time is no more. Then this time it will be us who will fuel history. Kelly's expression darkened, and she grabbed the Red Lotus Falling Spear beside her, which was silent and even the red lotus pattern had become extremely dim, "Mr. Lovian, how to explain the teacher's death? And if you conceal the truth, then although I and the knights will certainly not slander you, the rumors of your murder of the teacher will definitely appear. ”

Quan Shu?

Lovian sighed hard, a little surprised by the genuine concern he saw in Kelly's eyes. Could it be that Ulysses II had told his heir to make her really trust her so much? or did this Ulysses believe that this girl, who could be called a child, had the city and the stratagery that he feared?

Is this sentence really a question about today's power tricks, or a test of his position?

"What horrifies the people is what makes them uneasy. Don't hide the presence of Ben Leon, but don't be so powerful. Please tell me that the two were of equal strength, and both were defeated and withdrew from the battle. After briefing the people on this false battle in gentle language, you make a little false pretense that His Excellency Ulysses is too sick to serve and give the temple hierarchy a few months of reprieve during which time it should not be difficult to stabilize your team. Then you announce the death of His Majesty the Pope, and the situation you will face at that time will not be so tricky, right?"

"Thank you very much. Kelly replied with a sigh, trying to make a smile of gratitude, but Lovian still couldn't see any expression that could be called "heart", "I'll take your advice." Mr. Lovean—"

Sadly, she pulled out a metal locket from her close pocket and solemnly handed it to Lovian, "—you are for yourself, but without your efforts, we would have suffered many more casualties. If I lose my life here, the temple will be in real chaos. We also guessed a few points of your injury, it was the source sword that broke the qi and blood of the guide. This pill should be able to help you regain your health, and it's up to you whether you take it or not. ”

Luo Wei'an didn't refuse this Jianyì, he nodded and took the locket. Before this moment, he was still thinking about how to hide this from Mastma, who knew his health best, and if he went back like this, saying that he himself had not been injured in the battle at all, it would undoubtedly not convince her at all.

"These were all told to me by the teacher, but no one expected this day to come so suddenly. She bowed her head lonely, and then whispered to the knight behind her, "Avoid, I have something important to say to Mr. Lovian, this is the wish of His Majesty." ”

The knights looked up in amazement, but under her unadulterated gaze, none of the high-ranking knights evaded her orders. Even the Gregorian knight was far from the first sight of Lovian's aggressive appearance, hanging the Ice Breaker on the back of the few remaining horses, and along with his men, he settled the bodies of the other fallen knights.
