With the fall of the four cities of Spirit, Shura, Yellow Spring, and Demon one after another, the rule of the Church of Light has been greatly challenged. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The Dark Holy Court, which had suddenly disappeared more than thirty years ago, suddenly showed signs of a comeback, and rumors of the Black Knight quickly spread across the land.

This made the believers of the Church of Light feel a little uneasy, and the young people may still be fanatical, but the old people have lingering palpitations.

Because they had experienced the era when the two major sects were fighting, they knew that the Dark Holy See was so powerful that it even overwhelmed the church to a certain extent.

Although the vast majority of the land was still in the hands of the Church, they were greatly traumatized by the Battle of the Valley of Atonement.

More than 10,000 soldiers of the Legion of Light died on the battlefield, thousands died in the trampling of each other, and a large number of soldiers became prisoners.

Even if some of the defeated soldiers fled, they did not dare to return to the Holy City in order to escape punishment, which was equivalent to a loss of 50,000 people.

This left them with no spare strength to gather their armies in a short period of time, and they could only let the group of black ghosts wreak havoc on the northern land, and the wind and clouds surged.

But even so, the Holy City still has an absolute advantage, because this black torrent is terrifying, but it is not yet enough to shake the foundation of the Church's rule, that is, the power of faith, although they have liberated a large area, which was historically controlled by the Dark Holy See.

There are hundreds of thousands of followers of the Dark Holy See, but after the great changes more than thirty years ago, they have all been brutally suppressed.

The most devout believers are now over fifty years old, and they are no longer in the prime of life, while the younger generation has been nurtured to a certain extent.

But in the end, there was still a little bit of a gap in faith, and when they learned that the prophesied black knight had swept the land, the believers watched one after another.

"It's been more than thirty years, it's been more than thirty years, can I finally see the day when the Holy Court will rise? I've waited too long for this day to come, if I could be twenty years younger, I would definitely still be able to go to war, but now I'm too old to look good. ”

"Father, didn't those fellows of the Dark Court abandon us more than thirty years ago, and how devout our family believed in them, but they abandoned us like that, and left us under the rule of the Church, and they have suffered enough all these years. ”

"Yes, over the years, the people of the church have been exploiting us, we have had a very difficult time to survive, and they have forced us to convert to the goddess of light, or they will purify us, and those stubborn people have been sent to the valley of atonement in the north, where hundreds of thousands of people have been sent there. ”

"But now, thirty years later, how many people are still alive in the Valley of Atonement? We are outcasts, and now that they are back, we have to answer their call? Shouldn't the gods of darkness be the ones who protect us? Why do we have to suffer so much?"

Young people are puzzled by this, and some are even angry because they have been indoctrinated by the people of the church since birth.

The clergy of the church told them that they were sinners, and that the blood of sin in their bodies had been determined from birth and could not be changed.

The only thing you need to do in this life is to believe in the goddess of light, work hard under her mercy, and atone for your sins.

Under the high-sounding words of the clergy, there was a heavy oppression on them, which made these young people simply breathless.

And their parents told them when they were very young that they should persevere, that night would eventually come, that they would be liberated, that as long as they did not give up, they would live a happier life, and that happiness would be in this life, not in the afterlife, as the church preached, and that they must persevere!

Under the repeated stimulation of the two doctrines, this generation of young people is very confused, and they do not know what is right.

What is wrong, the only thing they know is that they are living a mess, the Church of Light oppresses them, and the Dark Holy See has abandoned them, and that unattainable hope has not come for a long time, which even makes them angry and think that it is all wrong!

"There is a reason for everything to happen, no one is born to be smooth, even those high nobles, they seem to be rich, they can get everything they want, but they also lose a lot of things, lose the warmth of home, lose the joy of getting. ”

"The same piece of bread is enough for us to be happy all day, but for them it is not happy, they are empty, we are happy, this emotion has no distinction between high and low, the meaning of life is not how much you have gained, but how much you have experienced. ”

"This is what the Dark God wants to convey to us, and I know that you young people are still suspicious of the great Dark God, but just wait, wait for the supreme miracle, the opening of the Dark Tower, that will guide us on our way!"

There was an old man who persuaded the young people, knowing that his words alone could not convince this generation of confused people who had not been guided.

He was dressed in a black robe, and looked far away in the direction of the north, and when he was young, whenever there was confusion in his heart, he would reverently look to the north, to the tower that guided them forward, where his soul would be at peace, and no matter how many troubles he had, he would suddenly be enlightened.

At the same time, in the far north land, in the city of Yellow Springs, a large number of black-robed believers were placed here, they were too tired.

They were treated by doctors, and they were severely malnourished by living in poor conditions in the Valley of Atonement for a long time.

In the early morning, a large pot on the fire boiled soup with medicinal herbs, and people in black robes lined up to serve the soup, while soldiers divided bread beside them.

Everyone takes the bowl with a grateful, reverent smile, even though they have endured enough suffering.

But they have never given up the faith in their hearts, even if they used to have hundreds of thousands of people, even if there are only more than 30,000 people now.

They never wavered, they never compromised, and that's why they were banished to the Valley of Atonement, just over thirty years later.

Not only did they not atone for their so-called sins, but they waited for what they had been waiting for, the early morning sun shining in.

The old man's withered hands were covered with pleats like dry chicken skin, and he carefully held the soup bowl and prayed earnestly before drinking it.

Everyone is always grateful, and they cherish this hard-won life.

"Although there is such a group of devout believers of the Dark Holy Court, there is no way to command them to fight, and they can't let them join the army at all in this state, there is no way to conquer this land just by fighting, and the vast majority of the believers of the Dark Holy Court are still watching. ”

"Waiting for the opening of the Tower of Darkness, the supreme tower of the Dark Court, but where and by what means it is hidden is a real headache. ”

Lin Ye stood on the ruins of the city, lost in thought.
