The temple of the goddess was furnished in a simple manner, as it has always been, and not because of the haste with which the new temple was built. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In terms of the constituent elements, the flower beds, pools, and statues of the gods are all that is inside the temple.

Li Yun still has a good impression of this kind of simple model, on the other hand, the Holy See's temple is deliberate, and the taste of the packaging is relatively strong.

Of course, the most striking feature is that there are many thugs. There is only one type of thug of the goddess, the Templar. And there are many of them in the Holy See, Templars, Paladins, various knights, etc.

When Li Yun entered the temple, Mora's mood was a little apprehensive, the goddess had never been very kind to the priests of the Holy See. Most do not respond, while a few simply reject it. She didn't quite know what kind of treatment Li Yun would suffer.

From a personal point of view, Mora hopes that Li Yun will be treated well by the goddess, because she has already obtained information from the more straightforward werewolves, and the key person in humanizing the universal is this dark knight.

She is more optimistic about the newborn werewolf race, not to mention the senses after contact with the wolf tribe these days, let's just say that from a macro perspective, the mainstream of today's werewolves is the cursed humans of the past. Compared to primitive werewolf colonies, these werewolves transformed by Cursed Venom are more viable, cooperative, socially active, and less insanely aggressive.

Therefore, Mora was a little worried, if the goddess did not pretend to Li Yun, or even rejected it, would it affect the spread of faith, after all, the disaster that happened to the Mann people had already affected their faith to a considerable extent, and they were in a state of ignorance that was suddenly affected by the disaster, but now they are slowly calming down and gradually waking up. Today's test cannot be concealed for a long time, and in such a situation, it will be very difficult to proselytize. She didn't plan to give up, but she was indeed mentally prepared for a big reduction in her followers.

But the reality surprised her very much, as soon as Li Yun entered the temple, a silver light immediately fell from the void, enveloping him in the middle.

Mora muttered, "Divine grace!?"

This is too unexpected, the goddess belief can be called ancient, and there are very few people who have received divine grace in the relevant scriptures. Especially when it turned out to be the silver moon, she almost gave the words 'you are not human'. Because in her memory, only the divine grace of the elves will be the silver moon brilliance, and the human race will obtain the golden light.

"Does he have the blood of the elf clan?" Mora looked carefully and found that Li Yun was indeed handsome, but his temperament was very different, the temperament of the elves was mostly light, natural, elegant, and chic, while Li Yun's biggest trait was mysterious and profound.

Then, something even more surprising happened to Mora. Not only did the charism not end, but it also changed from silver to silver cyan, or moon white. It was a divine grace she had never heard of.

Next, she saw Li Yun step forward calmly, kneeling on one knee, and saluting the goddess.

Kneeling the king on one knee, and God on both knees. However, Li Yun is not a goddess believer, and he can say the past with a one-knee salute.

Li Yun made a state of prayer, but the light of divine grace was still shrouded, and the silver and blue color became thicker and thicker, which made Mora sigh that Li Yun's divine grace was long, you know, this is not only a symbol, but also a great benefit, this is the power that God directly gives regardless of the return, this power is far more precious than ordinary divine power, and what it gives is often a permanent strengthening.

Mora was thinking about why Li Yun was so favored by God, when he saw Li Yun suddenly start to convulse, he tried to hold on to his state, but he could see that it was very hard.

Then she saw a black-red light overflowing from Li Yun's body, this kind of light she just witnessed, she gave birth to a creepy feeling, instinctively told her that as long as she got a little bit of it, she would be in big trouble.

The black-red light and the silver-cyan light constantly collided, first shooting out a large number of silver light stars, and then because it was too dense, a cloud of light was formed, and then Li Yun's whole person was wrapped in the light of this fierce battle, and it took a few minutes before it gradually weakened and finally disappeared.

The silver and blue light of divine grace ended after a short time, Li Yun stood up, and when he turned around, Mora suddenly saw that at the center of his eyebrows, there was a sign that emitted a silver light, this logo was like a lowercase Y, composed of two arcs, one long and one short, and not intersecting.

"Moonlight, you have become my lord's guardian?" Mora asked in a trembling voice.

This is not a Templar, but a Holy Knight, with a status and power similar to that of the Holy Spirit and an oracle.

Li Yundao: "I didn't convert to the god of the moon, but I did take on an important task and received a gift from the god. You can call me Moon Knight. ”

"Moon Knight...... Is it a title, or a title?" said Mora.

Li Yun smiled, "It's all of them." ”

He added: "It's time to work, there are a lot of things waiting for us to do!"

The main reason why Li Yun came back this time was to use the war paint seal to detoxify people and clean up hidden dangers.

In addition to wanting to understand why the goddess and the god of war would allow her followers to be corrupted by darkness, another important reason for asking Mora to test with various divine techniques was to confirm the feasibility of using the temple to discern the evil minions.

Early this morning, he told the baron's butler Corion that the Temple repels evil minions, so whoever thinks of the law to avoid worship may be spies on the evil side. This statement is actually just theoretical speculation, and has not really been practiced.

And now that he had done the experiment and communicated with the goddess, he already knew that the previous inference was wrong, and that evil could be deceived by a way, but at a high cost.

However, he is not helpless, and his knowledge, combined with the gift of the goddess, can solve the problem from another angle. It's just that if you want to completely eliminate the hidden dangers, there are still many details that need to be solved one by one.

"Knight, is there any hope that the curse on us will be resolved?"

When Li Yun came out of the temple, he saw a large number of people gathered outside, all of whom were desperate to know that they and their families would be saved.

The previous statement given by Li Yun when he plundered the population was to take them out of danger first, so as not to be harmed by evil. In the past few days, life has become more stable, people's emotions have stabilized, their minds have become lively, and their willingness to be saved has gradually increased.

Li Yun saw that there were a lot of people, and after thinking about it for a while, he decided to say it simply, the hearts of the people in the province were fluctuating, and he said: "Everyone, the acting lord Miss Fergus entrusted this task to me, and I have been looking for a way these days. Finally some progress has been made. ”

"Many of you are witnesses to the random selection of candidates in Tulip Town and the detoxification on the spot. I originally had this one method, and it was a stupid method, more than 4,500 spells, even if it wasn't as hard as hard work, it couldn't be completed in a while. ”

"What's more, your body has been transformed by darkness, but it is incomplete, and this leads to the fact that evil will still gather, and this accumulation will be like dirt that is not washed and gradually settles and eventually becomes old dirt, so it is actually a symptom rather than a cure. ”

"Also, even if you are not filthy, you with the characteristics of a dark constitution are still more easily controlled by evil enemies, why? If you can't control it, then it's like giving authority to others and waiting to be manipulated. ”

Someone in the crowd couldn't help but ask, "Lord Knight, take the liberty of interrupting, may I ask if we take the initiative to learn to harness this power, and the problem can be solved?"

"Yes, it's a solution, and it gives you extra power. Although this kind of power is difficult to make you a powerful spellcaster, it can also be convenient for life, such as not being actively disturbed by mosquitoes, increasing strength, having a certain night vision, and so on.

Hearing Li Yun say this, someone below said urgently: "Great, my lord will teach us the skills of controlling power." ”

"Yes, that's the legendary blessing in disguise. ”

Li Yun motioned for everyone to be quiet. "I'm responsible for telling people the truth, not trying to make choices by boasting," he explained. The truth is often not so rosy. After a pause, he said, "The dark force is indeed a force, but everyone should also note that it is not a positive force. Using it is like adding a few more cores to a candle to get a brighter glow at the cost of consuming it faster. ”

People looked at each other, and many of them showed a look that was really like this.

At this time, Li Yun continued: "In addition, the most embarrassing problem now is that if you don't make a choice, you will consume faster. It's like multiple wax wicks left to burn and ignored. So we can only move forward. How? Here's how I arranged it. ”

Li Yun said and raised a finger, "First, stabilize the state first." That is, to get rid of the evil. This will be arranged soon, and if it goes well, everyone will be able to complete the detox from tomorrow morning. ”

"The second step is to control the state. Here you need to choose. Without further deterioration, this is a control. Completely transformed, gaining a dark constitution, this is also a kind of control. From the point of view of controlling power, the second is superior to the first, but at the cost of becoming a true child of darkness, not a half-person like this. ”

"The last step, through technology, basically removes the hidden danger. ”

As soon as Li Yun finished speaking, someone immediately asked: "Lord Knight, may I ask if you have become a real child of darkness, have you become a wolf?"

"It can be said that the most convenient sample to select at present is the werewolf, and the technology is relatively mature. Of course, you can also wait for the opportunity to become a snake man, a lion man, and so on. The former can always live in human form, after all, with the aim of using its dark bloodline for their own use, not to turn into a monster. Some people may say that this is simply self-deception, they have become werewolves, and they do not need to transform into people? I want to say that people are constantly making choices in life, and they will always have choices. Persistence is a choice, and change is also a choice. I'd rather die than not be identified, that's a choice. Or simply don't choose to get a dark physique, just consume it, it's also a choice. ”

"My lord, can you tell me what it is like to not complete the control of the complete transformation?"

"Absolutely. Li Yun explained: "Everyone knows that half-bloods, half-elves, half-orcs, don't rely on either side. This is also a kind of state, only control does not change, that is, it develops in a similar direction, hoping that through control, the state can be completely stabilized in such a position that is neither up nor down. There is a downside and a risk to this choice. The disadvantage is that life expectancy is still faster than normal, and if the average life expectancy of the average person is 60 years, then this state is about 48 years, which is one-fifth less. The risk is that it is easier to be exploited by evil again than ordinary people. ”

Someone was disappointed and said, "Is there nothing we can do to return to the state of ordinary people?"

Li Yun smiled: "A piece of cloth has been dyed black, and you should know how difficult it is to wash it back to its original color? The human body is much more complex than cloth." For example, the morning dew is bitter in the past. Throughout life, there are often few good things, and there are always many sufferings. This is the norm, and if someone tells you that a small price can be a big deal. Then you should be careful, this is often a scam. ”

He added: "Speaking of which, I will give you a digression. One of the most used scams for evil. Immortal!"

"Isn't the name bluffing? absolutely. Evil made a pact with you, which was finally fulfilled in a sophistically way. Like killing you, and then turning your body into a cage for your soul. You're not dead, but you're not alive either. It's called immortality. For example, if you imprison your soul in some kind of device, twist an ancient tree or something, your new body will grow like a tree, or even faster, which is a kind of eternal life. Therefore, ladies and gentlemen, when we are greedy, evil will often take advantage of the void, so we must be vigilant. ”

Li Yun didn't realize at this time that his last digression was the most valuable paragraph in today's explanatory speech, and it played an immeasurable role in identifying evil deception for Lanka immigrants, and even the entire Mann Territory, and even the humans in the wider region.

After completing the impromptu explanation of doubts, Li Yun began to work steadfastly. His first goal was the renovation of the Black Tower.

The transformation process seems very simple, that is, around the Black Tower, use a wooden stick to draw symbols in the dirt, and then when the light of the moon falls, activate the formation, and the ravines of the symbols are gradually filled with liquid dark power, and then turn into silver and cyan, and then the black tower becomes a green tower.

After that, Li Yun threw a glowing seed into the tower, and a holy cedar tree with holy white branches and pale golden leaves grew out from within, and finally merged with the shell of the green tower, as if it had completed a shaping.

In the process of the growth of the cedar tree, the black pit gradually hardens, the black soil hardens and fades, and finally forms a pool of gray-white stone, the pool seeps water, and the clear water gradually begins to glow after absorbing the moonlight, and then a faint light mist rises above the pool, and from time to time there are silver spots rising up, like the tail light of fireflies.

This pond and this tree have replaced the gloomy and solemn atmosphere around the original Black Tower with solemnity, seclusion, elegance and harmony.

Holy cedar, the legendary tree in Li Yun's hometown. It means perfection, upwardness and dignity. Now it has to add a note: the symbol of dark life.

There is life in the dark, and it never sees the sun but still thrives and even releases light. In dark areas, this type of plant is not uncommon. But they are not as representative as this holy cedar.

This holy cedar represents the other end of the earth's balance. It echoes the light of the Holy See in the distance. The light tree is also called the golden tree, and its leaf color is exactly the opposite of the holy cedar, which is golden during the day and holy white at night. The color of the trunk is also reversed, with a white trunk during the day and a golden trunk at night. To put it simply, the japonica is most holy and gorgeous during the day, while the holy cedar is at night.

The goddess gave the support of technology and strength, so there was this luxurious packaging. The original power of darkness has not changed, what has changed is the form of expression.

Of course, the goddess gives not only packaging technology, but complete production system knowledge, as a task commission fee and practical support. The Sacred Tree Energy Pool is the heart of the entire system.

The sacred tree energy pool produces three kinds of resources, wood, stone, and water, plucking a branch of wood, scooping up a stone, and scooping a handful of water, you can build a moon well, and the moon pool collects the power of the moon, the power of darkness, and the power of the elements, and turns it into Yingying pool water.

Three months, five nights, and seven moons, the quality of the water in the moon well continues to improve, and eventually more magical facilities can be built based on it.

That night, one tree and four wells kept Li Yun busy for most of the night, and his work was worth it and he was very happy.

With these four wells, after three days, the water of the wells will have the function of purifying evil spirits. After five days, well water can be used as a healing potion, especially against dark creatures.

Also that night, after much consideration, Logan decided to send troops to Fort Zo and Fort You, and in one fell swoop, he brought the Crusaders in the hands of the other two knights under his command.

Despite the fatigue of the day, the Crusaders marched through the Blue Night Castle from west to east, and went straight to the eastern sector.

When he arrived at Josburg, it was already close to midnight, and in the face of superior forces and the order of commendation from the Lord's Palace, the knight of Joborg, Kaleko, surrendered his army.

Later, the Crusaders arrived at Yobourg, and the knight Elmer of Yobourg was very cooperative at first, but when he approached Logan, he suddenly attacked Logan, knocked him down, and then shouted, "The time has come to fight for our lord, Mara's warriors, go to war!"

As Elmer raised his arms and shouted, the Crusaders continued to attack their companions, one of whom had not yet been subdued, and the other had already been stabbed in the back. This constant defection of their former comrades put the crusaders at risk and were unable to quickly and effectively subdue the betrayers, so that it was not long before chaos spread throughout the ranks.

Elmer was particularly powerful, he used simple techniques to induce the evil in the body of the crusaders who dared to attack him, and then took the opportunity to kill more than a dozen crusader officers and soldiers in a row, and none of them were together.

In this case, Calleko took the lead in escaping, taking a step closer to causing chaos.

Elmer slashed and slaughtered, and soon gathered a group of traitors around him, who, under Elmer's leadership, slaughtered the Crusaders more effectively, and the Crusaders often had just organized an effective resistance array, and the commander or leader was weakened by Elmer's magic, and then killed or lost the role of the banner.

Seeing that the entire crusader army was about to collapse, Logan got back on his horse and commanded the battle.

Elmer was not a spellcaster, and his spells could only affect a few people at a time, and seeing that the crusaders were driven to reorganize under the leadership of Logan, he shouted: "Death to those who stand in my way!" led the rebels all the way to kill and disappeared into the vast darkness.

The wounded Logan was furious and fell off his horse again, and if Elmer had not been brave enough, he would have had to break up the Crusaders completely.

Even so, the Crusaders suffered staggering losses, including more than 100 rebels who fled with Elmer, with close to 500 casualties. Moreover, the losses this time are all the elites who are highly adaptable and able to organize battles at critical moments.

Suddenly experiencing the betrayal of his comrades-in-arms and the loss of a large number of elites, it can be said that the backbone of the crusaders was almost broken. Most of the rest were in a state of panic, and it was difficult to trust their comrades as before. The cohesion and morale created by the commendation order before were scattered all at once.

At around 2 o'clock in the morning, Li Yun learned the bad news through Feiying, and he was speechless for a long time, and couldn't help but shake his head.

When he was planning specific tactics with Rogan in the morning, he made it clear to Rogan that the biggest problem with using this method to gather the crusaders was that it would irritate the enemy. It's hard to grasp the amount, I mean: it's better to be less than greedy.

He also gave Logan an an analysis that there must be evil minions among the crusaders. At the beginning of seizing the military power, we could not carry out identification and purge, which would cause panic among the officers and men, so we should first devour one piece, not too little, implement the commendation order, complete the relocation, stabilize the morale of the army, and then plot the next step.

He also said that there was also a risk in doing so, and that the risk came from the evil judgment of the situation, and that the Crusader gathering was an extremely sensitive matter, and it was entirely possible to detonate the evil immediately, and the other side would activate the shadows and inflict a series of blows on Mannland. Sooner or later, the pustule will have to be punctured, and damage is inevitable, and my suggestion is to give priority to the preservation of combat strength, and only if the crusaders can be well preserved, can they cope with the various situations that follow.

In the end, he added, I provide ideas, and it is up to you to decide what to do.

As a result, according to the main points given by Li Yun in the early stage, the army was gathered surprisingly smoothly, and Rogan saw that the effect was so good, and the army's response was good, so he felt that Zobao and Youbao could also be passed on. Unexpectedly, Elmer actually took refuge in evil, among several knights, he was usually close to this person, and felt that this person was at least not ambiguous in war, and he was not as angry and rejected as others. Now I know that Elmer is usually acting at all, including combat power.

In this situation, this kind of action, Logan's sense of prevention is still very high, but Elmer still succeeds. Elmer attacked him not with a sword, but with a magic scroll, a scroll driven by the power of darkness, in order to improve the suddenness, he sacrificed a certain amount of power, and he used it in an instant, although he failed to kill Logan, but he was also injured.

With Li Yun's prior instructions, Elmer and his party were already adorned with flying shadows.

Li Yun informed Hulda's group of the urgent movement, and then explained a few words to Alfonso, and then galloped to Mann in the starry night. He was worried that Elmer would stage a village slaughter, knowing that the villages were no better than the Crusaders, and that their combat effectiveness was insufficient, and that with the outbreak of the Evil Spirit, the organizers and leaders of the resistance would be defeated, and the rest would be massacre, which was far less efficient than the Ranger squadron of the Canon Legion.

Murphy's Law was triggered, and as soon as Li Yun passed the grave, he received a summons from the Flying Shadow, and Elmer led people to start slaughtering a farm in the Southern District.

By the time he reached the gravel farm, Elmer had slaughtered all the villagers and set fire to the village.

As he made his way through the oak forest and approached the Blue Night Keep, Elmer had already slashed at another farmstead, and half an hour later, set a fire and sailed away, continuing south out of Mannland.

Li Yun knew that although Elmer's ravages were over for the time being, the evil abscesses rooted in Mann's Territory had been broken by this, and the pain had just begun...... (To be continued.) )
