Doyle's unpredictable expression fell into the eyes of the mage who had been watching her carefully, and he exchanged a look with Wilfredo, and both of them distanced themselves from Doyle and Asa and retreated to the other side of the balcony.
In order to be able to talk in peace, Wengers also opened a silent barrier that could only accommodate the two of them: "What do you think about this?"
Wilfredo frowned, "What do you mean?"
Wengers snorted at the closed door, and it was naturally the two inside.
Wilfredo shook his head, his mind was in a mess right now, and he couldn't figure it out.
Wengers snorted, and had to turn the subject to Wilfredo, "What do you think? Don't you know that the nobles regard the newly built temple of nature as a thorn in their side?"
Wilfredo was silent for a few seconds before replying, "Didn't you join the Mercenary Regiment of the Children of Nature?" β
"This is different!" he roared angrily, aware of his gaffe, knowing that the two outside the enchantment could not hear it, Wengers still lowered his voice, "The mercenary is not a follower, I have only an employment relationship with him, and he can withdraw at any time." But once you join the temple, you'll ...... for the rest of your life."
Wilfredo interrupted impatiently, "I know!"
The kindness was rejected, and Wengers's face suddenly became a little unbearable.
"I know......" Wilfredo's face hidden in the shadows was exhausted, "In the early years, I was still lucky enough to go back. As the years passed, my hopes were exhausted in waiting, and the deposition of the Prince Regent broke my thoughts completely. β
"That's just a ......" is an example that can't be said, how can Wengers, who was also born in the aristocracy, not know the inferior nature of the aristocracy, if there is wine today and drunk today, it doesn't matter what the future generations will be like. Not to mention...... Nobles who have dealings with the undead know it. Hicks, the god of death, will not exterminate all human beings, this god wants to spread the horror to every corner of the big 6, as long as the inconsequential commoners do not shake their fundamental interests, no matter how many nobles die, they will not care.
"The Silver Empire is too corrupt, like a vampire maggot attached to the nobility of the people, it will only lead humanity to the abyss of ruin. Lowering his hand, Wilfredo's expression changed from pain to determination. "I don't care if I'm called a traitor, whoever wants to save humanity, I'll serve whoever is the Lord. β
Wengers looked at Wilfredo in a daze, and for a moment, it seemed as if he had returned to twenty years ago, when the still child Wilfredo knelt in front of the statue of the god of war and swore in a childish voice that he would defend the people to the death. Time flies, and the children of that year have grown up, been framed, exiled, and abandoned the title of nobility. Lay down the knightly stature and even depart from the oath...... No, he didn't turn his back, he gave up a qiΔ, but faithfully kept his oath.
Will, sometimes I'm really jealous of you, no matter what danger you find yourself in, but always keep your heart the same.
"Do you need me to be a druid with you?"
Wilfredo turned his head in surprise. I'm not sure if my friend is joking or genuine.
Wengers patted him on the shoulder, "Are you serious? The goal is to become immortal like the previous Great Sage. β
Feeling that he was thinking too much, Wilfredo shook his head and retracted his gaze, "I don't think the god of war took the initiative to find the children of nature to protest. β
Summoning the main god at the altar of other gods is a very serious religious problem, and if one is not handled well, it will cause evil spirits and even theocratic wars.
Wengers nodded, and he thought the same thing. And he thought a little deeper than Wilfredo.
"What do you think...... I mean, is there any such possibility......" The mage made a gesture of clasping his hands, and this common movement has another meaning in certain situations.
"Alliance?!" Vilfredo was surprised, this ...... It's not impossible. In addition to the newly appointed mage god, didn't the god of shadows who had just switched sides also form an alliance with the pillar? Moreover. There is such a thing as a race war, and how can it be that the God of War is not involved. Win or lose, didn't the previous Northern Campaign led by the Natural Alliance have the support of the God of War.
Thinking about it this way, the possibility that 'the god of war appeared to form an alliance' has increased a lot.
Know early that God of War will be involved...... There was a moment of hesitation, and then a denial of his vacillation.
No, the god of war only wants killing and blood, and it doesn't care if humans live or die. Although Zhu doesn't like humans, he hasn't decided to exterminate humans yet, otherwise he wouldn't have specially chosen an otherworldly human as the new child of nature.
Wilfredo decided that Link's choice of Pillar was also an attempt to ease the relationship between humans and natural creatures.
That's good, at least more than those nobles......
Seeing that Doyle had moved, Wengers hurriedly withdrew the barrier.
The already cracked door was shattered by Doyle's fierce kick, "You're going to die of this heart, I won't go with you." β
"Oh......" the dwarf narrowed, "listening to his heart, are you still obsessed?"
Link immediately realized that he had been tricked by Flajd.
The god of war could not invade his own consciousness, but he could possess Doyle and Vera to perceive the conversation between them. This was the real purpose of its last possession!
"There is no absolute fairness in this world, and naturally there are no selfless saints. Whatever his original intentions were, it was he who pulled us in my most desperate moments, and I swore that as long as he didn't break it, we would keep it!"
This made Link's whole body freeze, and his memory flipped back to the night he signed the contract months ago.
Seeing that the situation was not right, the high priest Alysina was determined to erase Doyle, who had been raised by his own hands, and he resolutely chose to give her a chance to choose.
[Is my choice useful? Fate has never given me a chance to choose!]
[It's not too late, as long as you are willing to do it, you can still choose the path under your feet. γ
[I have become a monster, there is no place for me in the material world, there is no family, no friends, not even the Dawn Sect, there is no way back. γ
[I don't have any relatives in this world, if you want, you can treat me as your relative, whether it's a father or a brother, if you feel awkward, you can treat me as a friend. As long as you can trust me, as long as I live for a day, I will be your shelterer. γ
The night's experience was more dangerous than Grantham's army of the undead, and the hot-headed Link even gambled his life to save the twins. After exhausting all his tongues of persuasion, Doyle finally let down his guard and chose a compromise solution.
"Make a contract, I want to believe you. The girl with blood and tears on her face said this in the midst of the fire, and her eyes that had been occupied by despair reflected his figure, which was the last light and hope, like an abandoned child seeing his parents who had been condemned by their conscience and turned back.
Have you forgotten what you chose to protect her for?
Have you forgotten what prompted you to defend her in the face of opposition?
Human beings are selfish, but they also become righteous for the sake of feelings. Compassion, kindness, and determination to help them are not impulsive.
The definition of strength is not how much strength you have, but the firmness of your heart and beliefs. Only the incompetent and cowardly will clamore all day long to change their fate, there may be thousands of ways in the future, but only I have made a choice that can become history.
His eyes turned from confusion to clarity, and Link put aside the confusion caused by Flajd's interference.
"Even without your help, it can't change the battle between the anti-alliance and the Grim Reaper, even if the final result is defeat, it is fate. I respect their choice and will not change my mind. Whether or not this alliance is concluded is not up to me, but to you. β
Vlajde was silent for a while, then suddenly looked up and laughed, "You threw the question back to me?" hahahaha...... Interesting, really interesting. No wonder Malik's cunning guy will be convinced by you. β
Link, who was staring a few steps away, looked at it for a long time, and then Vlajde raised his hand again, "Join in my own name." This time, you shouldn't refuse again, right?~ No conditions attached, my company's war duty, such a big war is indispensable to me, it just so happens that I especially hate Hicks's self-righteous inferior creature. β
This time, Link really couldn't find a reason to refuse. He asked again, not asking for twins, and only after getting a definite answer did he shake hands with the medium possessed by the god of war.
The contract turned into a red armguard, and the red emblem highlighted that it was no ordinary piece of equipment.
The ritual was complete, and so was the Divine Presence, and before leaving, Vlajd watched the twins engage in an exchange that only they knew.
[I can understand why you are bewitched, I really want to see his fall, and he will definitely become a being even more evil than Hicks. γ
Doyle couldn't stop trembling with the sound of a sinister laugh, and the look in his eyes was extremely complicated when he looked at Link.
The three people outside the house took in the conversation in their ears word for word, and it was not until the god of war's breath completely disappeared that their tense nerves relaxed.
Wengers and Wilfredo looked at each other, and sure enough, they were an alliance. They weren't surprised by the success. Unlike other gods, the Grim Reaper only accepts the undead as believers, and even the night elves and demons who are also in the chaotic camp don't like them, and it makes sense to turn against them.
The god of war was gone, and the dwarf fell to the ground with a thud. Link gave him a hand, and Campano, who had regained consciousness, secretly looked at the children of nature, thinking no less than the twins. When he was possessed, his soul was awake, but he was squeezed into a corner of his consciousness, and the idea of communicating with the twins that the god of war saw was not left behind.
Link's idea really surprised Campano, as a child of nature to protect the heir of the demon god, and did not hesitate to use himself as a guarantee, how naΓ―ve is this human from another world? But this almost stupid stubbornness moved Campano again, and I somewhat understood why Zhu chose him, not to give priority to the interests of human beings, to treat all species fairly, without the need to kill and decide, such a person is a child of nature, it is good......
