"Adult ......."

A choked call brought Kern's divergent thoughts back to his mind, and the knight gently patted his stiff cheek with his iron gauntlet, relieving the lethargy of exhaustion with the cold and tingling. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"I'm not dead yet, what are you crying about!"

The messenger's cowardice made Kern very unhappy, and his tone was much harsher than usual.

During the months of searching the frozen coast, the harsh climate and environment tortured the team, and although Kern's men were all fearless and true knights, the cold climate and the attacks of wild creatures still made many inexperienced young people temporarily lose the ability to continue following the team.

As the leader of this mission, Kern felt more pressure on his heart than anyone else.

He not only has to consider the bearing capacity of the members of the team, but also always cares about the physical condition of the wounded in the rear, so many trivial things are pressed on his body, let alone a good rest, even a short rest is sometimes a luxury.

Kern didn't care about the fatigue of his body, even though his bloodshot eyeballs were swollen and painful.

What really made him mentally unbalanced was that they had been walking around this dense forest for several months, but they hadn't even seen a shadow of the mission target.

Watching the boys fall heavily on the snow and then be taken to a nearby town by the medical staff sent by Count Cheno, Kern hated his incompetence.

Every time he visited them in the infirmary, the boys eagerly asked him about the progress of the mission, but he could only prevaricate them with ominous words again and again.

He could not tell the truth to these men, who were desperate to return to the ranks, lest the wounded with limited mobility fall into self-reproach, they were the best knights, and they were not to blame for the failure of the search.

The situation is getting more and more dire.

Although Kern attributes the current predicament to his own incompetence, the objective factor of lack of manpower cannot be ignored.

In order to complete the task as quickly as possible, each of the remaining knights had to share more of the search work, and the overload of work also exacerbated the speed at which their bodies collapsed.

As a result, the whole team fell into a vicious circle.

Sometimes Kern really wanted to put aside the orders from above and send someone directly to Count Cheno's request for support, but this thought only swirled slightly in his mind, and he was immediately thrown out of his mind.

He was a soldier and a knight who swore allegiance to the crown. Therefore, no matter when, orders and requests from the royal family are the most basic benchmark for him to consider things.

"Your Excellency," said the young knight in a trembling voice, "Your Excellency the Great Knight has fallen. ”

"Do you know what you're talking about!" Kern walked in front of the messenger in two steps, grabbed the other party's shoulders with his iron pincer-like palms, and lifted the young man who was not thin directly with his arms: "Arrange the superiors, the heart of the cholera army, I can kill you here with this alone!"

"My lord, it's true. Just now, news came from the imperial capital, on the day of His Majesty's birthday celebration, His Excellency Olivia ...... He fell. ”

The messenger wept silently. The tears were not due to fear of Kern's anger, but simply to grieve for the fall of the Grand Knight Olivia.

For any knight of the Knights of the Champions, Olivia is not just their leader, their idol, but their mentor in life.

"Bang-"

Kern let go of his grip, and the young man was thrown into the snow.

"Yes, His Excellency the Great Knight...... Has it fallen too......"

Kern, who seemed to have been drained of all his strength, muttered, and his consciousness fell into darkness.

"My lord—"

A mournful call resounded through the forests and mountains, disturbing the birds and the snowflakes......

The devil who sent "jealousy" away from here summoned the projection of the "Book of Desire" and slowly opened it: "The accumulation of comprehension of the law of desire is enough, and it is time to advance to the legend." ”

He took a long breath, and the rainbow of smoke hovering above the throne poured into his body like a weary bird returning to its nest, and then disintegrated its origin with a strange force.

The distorted fragments of memories mixed in the haze turned into black smoke and overflowed from the body, and then absorbed by the "Book of Desire" in the hands of the devil.

The demon-buffing part of the Rainbow Haze was completely assimilated into Mephistopheles' own power, just as he was supposed to be so powerful.

With the enhancement of the demon's breath and the ascension of the realm, the "Book of Desire" has also undergone inexplicable changes, and the original blank pages inside are filled with strange patterns and symbols, which are the projection of the law and the external engraving, even the owner of the "Book of Desire", Mephistopheles himself, it is difficult to distinguish the specific meaning of each symbol and each pattern.

"Baptism of the law?" Mephistopheles chuckled as she looked at the "Book of Desire" that had changed her appearance very much, "I'm becoming more and more like a scholar." ”

The devil, who has fully mastered the power of the Seven Original Sins, has stepped into the legendary doorrail with great ease, and as the basis for his 'essence' existence, the "Book of Desire" will naturally be subjected to the "law baptism" brought about by the advancement.

Fingertips brushed over the uneven marks and textures on the page, Mephistopheles became more and more satisfied with the gains of this promotion.

Although he could not yet decipher the true meaning of these symbols, nor could he comprehend the mysteries hidden in them overnight, he still did not care.

Because the hidden power under every symbol and pattern can be invoked by his will, such as the swing of his arm.

Therefore, whether he understands it or not does not affect his ability to use this powerful power, so what can he not be satisfied with?

What's more, he doesn't need to understand these now.

The essence of the legendary rank is to be able to skillfully use the power that comes from the law, and as for clarifying the meaning of the symbols, exploring the nature and evolution of the law, that is a matter that can only be considered by the gods at that level of power.

"The layout of the frozen coast has been completed, the curtain has been lifted, and all that remains is to see who can make it to the end on this stage. ”

"Only those who survive to the end are eligible to enjoy the flowers and applause of the audience. ”

The devil's body disappeared like smoke on the throne, and only the deep voice still echoed in the palace:

"The avatar has established itself here, and it's time for me to go to my own stage. ”

"We are all performers on the stage, as for whose intention the script will go, and who can become the ultimate winner of the 'reward' for this performance, let's wait and see, Chenxi!"

"But I'm curious, I choreographed this drama on the frozen coast from time to time, so who designed this drama in the material world?"
