In the early hours of the morning, the sleeping city of Lille was awakened by the sound of horses' hooves like thunder. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThe disgruntled residents, who had been disturbed from their dreams, opened the windows, and just wanted to scold a few times, when they were stunned to find that there were groups of golden-armored knights passing through the long street like a gust of wind, and the fluttering banner was clearly the Lionheart Cross of the Grand Duke.

Could it be that the Grand Duke of Bavaria, who was fighting in the north, had already returned to the royal capital? Looking at the murderous appearance of these knights, something important must have happened. Whatever it is, it's certainly not going to be a good thing anyway.

The residents, who wanted to scold a few times, were so frightened on the spot that they immediately closed the windows firmly.

In the center of the cavalry, the knight with an always straight body is indeed Reinhardt, the Grand Duke of Lionheart. It's just that at this moment, he doesn't have the joy of returning to the capital at all, and what he has on his face is just a cold winter-like wind and frost.

In the blink of an eye, the Grand Duke's Mansion was already in sight.

The Grand Duke stretched out his hand and pointed at the Grand Duke's Mansion, and the two horsemen around him immediately accelerated out. The knight on the horse exhaled, picked up the heavy shackles, and slammed them down on the wrought bronze gate of the Grand Duke's Mansion!

With a roar, the gate of the Grand Duke's Mansion slowly fell inward, and it was smashed alive!

The Grand Duke rode like lightning, passed through the gate of the mansion without stopping, and galloped straight to the depths of the Grand Duke's Mansion. The knights who followed him back all restrained their horses outside the Grand Duke's mansion and lined up in neat formations, saying nothing but waiting quietly. Above this silent cavalry, there seemed to be a terrible thunderstorm brewing.

The incident happened suddenly, and the guards of the Grand Duke's Mansion stayed on the spot for a while. I don't know what happened just now.

"Dear Catherine, can you give me a convincing explanation for Crassus's death?, don't you know that he is a man of divine favor who has been blessed by the Lord God of the Heavenly Realm?!" the Grand Duke strode into Catherine's study, his face frosty, and his voice full of murder. Anyone who is familiar with him knows that at this moment, the Grand Duke has already moved to kill.

Catherine slowly stood up from behind her desk. Caught up with Bavaria's gaze. She had no fear in the face of this angry lion. just said coldly: "It is precisely because he is a man of God that I killed him." ”

The Grand Duke of Bavaria slowed down and approached Catherine step by step, his hand had already subconsciously grasped the hilt of the sword, and said coldly: "Dear Catherine, I heard that during my absence, you gave birth to another child. You have a lover and there is nothing in the first place. Even if it's too much to give birth to a child, it's not a big deal, and I don't care about it at all. But now things are obviously not as simple as I thought! Dearly, I feel something different from you, and you must have killed Crassus for the sake of this child, could you tell me who the father of the child is, and where is the child now?"

Catherine smiled faintly. said: "It's nothing to tell you, anyway, in this matter, you are destined to be helpless." The father of the child is Rogge, and as for this child, I have put him in the absolute seal and pushed him into the turbulence of space. So you don't have to bother going to this kid to vent your anger. Surely you won't find him. As for Rogge, I've heard that he has recently been favored by the Lord God Dismatson, what can you do with him now?"

The Grand Duke held the hilt of the sword tightly in his vigorous hand, and he had to use all his concentration to endure the sword not to unsheath it. He was afraid that as soon as the sword came out of the sheath, he would not be able to control himself.

The Grand Duke took a deep breath and tried his best to say in a calm tone: "I can tolerate all this, but why did you kill Crassus?"

Catherine said indifferently: "He's just a dog of the Lord God of the Heavenly Realm, and if he kills him, he will kill him, what's the big deal?"

Choking. The Sharp Extreme Sword finally popped out of its sheath. It was on Catherine's icy neck.

The Grand Duke's face was covered with green energy, and he roared in a low voice: "Do you know what you have done?!"

Catherine suddenly smiled. "Of course I do. I just gave up the opportunity to be a docile dog in front of the Lord God. ”

"You ......" The Grand Duke trembled with anger, and the long sword in his hand trembled. Where the blade met Catherine's skin, a line of bright red blood slowly flowed.

Seeing this blood, the Grand Duke finally calmed down, moved the blade of his sword away a little, and then shouted: "It is glory to serve the Lord God! With my merits, when the heavenly realm is unified in the plane, I will become the supreme ruler of the entire plane after the Pope! Moreover, when the final judgment comes, you and I will be redeemed! Do you know what that means? That means immortality!"

Catherine stared at the Grand Duke, sighed faintly, and said, "Is it really so rewarding to rule a group of unconscious walking corpses? You never said it when we first met, but I knew that your dream was to unify the whole plane and to banish all beings who should not belong to this plane, even if it was the gods of the earth! But now? Since when did you value salvation so much? You are no longer you, have you really forgotten all those original dreams?"

The Grand Duke was silent for a long time before he said, "Catherine, at that time, I didn't know the power of the Heavenly Realm, nor did I know the power of the Lord God. But I know now, so I know that no matter how hard we try, the end result will not change. Think about it, is it worth giving up the chance of immortality for an unchangeable ending?"

Catherine stared into the Grand Duke's eyes, slowly shaking her head as she slowly stepped back.

She said word for word: "I think it's worth it." I will not accept salvation through mercy and charity, and I will not give up my mind and become a puppet in redemption who only knows what the Lord God commands. It doesn't take much reason to make such a decision, just because I'm proud, I'm unique, I'm Catherine, even if the end result doesn't change. But I can still make the Celestial Realm gain nothing in this plane, and that's how I exist!"

The Grand Duke was shocked, and immediately took a step forward, and shouted, "Catherine, what do you want to do?

But before he could make a move, Catherine flipped her wrist, and there was already a dazzling dagger in her hand.

She smiled faintly. With a wave of his hand, the dagger sliced through the air at incredible speed. And then stabbed into her chest without half a minute!

"Catherine!"

It all happened so quickly that the Grand Duke only had time to roar!

With a choking sound, he could no longer hold the sword in his hand.

He wanted to rush up, to hug Catherine, but for some reason, his feet were so heavy that he couldn't take that step anyway!

He could only watch. watched the blood flower bloom and bloom on her chest, and in the blink of an eye, the blood flower bloomed all over the study.

The blood flowers in the room silently condensed into a huge magic symbol, and quietly sank into the ground.

Catherine stood tall, holding the handleless dagger in her hand as if she were holding her heart, and slowly closed her eyes, a smile still hanging on the corner of her mouth.

From beginning to end, her demeanor, her face. Her smile is so beautiful, so perfect, not spotless, not blemished.

She, Catherine. Always the embodiment of perfection.

In just an instant, the Grand Duke of Bavaria was already dozens of years old.

The autumn breeze gently blows through the mountains and forests of the Chichinako Mountains, from the broad-leaved trees at the foot of the mountain to the snow-capped pine trees near the top of the mountain, all swaying slightly in the wind, one by one the forest waves and pine waves step by step, which is refreshing and pleasant.

Rogge walks through the mountains and enjoys the scent of the mountains. It had been a long time since he had taken such a leisurely stroll, and now he was in a hurry, and he had no special purpose to achieve.

It's only one afternoon, though. But this afternoon. Rogge is idle.

He leisurely passed through the vast Chichinako Mountains, enjoying the mountain breeze. Listen to the song of insects and birds, and occasionally stop by a mountain stream. His figure was not very clear, and in a flash, he had already appeared thousands of kilometers away.

As a young man, Rogge was intoxicated with alcohol, women, and money, and when he grew older, he was immediately drawn into the political vortex and struggled to survive ever since. When he was in power and powerful, he served in the camp every day, and any decision would involve the life and death of countless people, but he had no time to take care of the beautiful scenery around him.

What's more, the fat man has become vulgar to the bones, and at those times he would rather look at the golden beauty than appreciate any mountain scenery.

At dusk, Rog was already standing on the top of the mountain, gazing at the quiet and solemn Elven Valley.

After a moment's pause, he leapt from the top of the mountain, swept through the sky, and landed in the Elven Valley.

At this moment, the floating temple still radiated a faint and brilliant light, and on each talisman was a meditating earth elf. Rog stood at the edge of the valley, his gaze slowly sweeping over the elves, thoughtful. He could already see that the vitality of these elves was rapidly draining, but even with his eyes at the moment, he couldn't see where the mystery of this magic array was.

It's just that Rogge didn't know that just a few days ago, this valley was still very prosperous, and the number of elves walking back and forth was far more than now.

Elves walked back and forth in an orderly manner, busy with their own business. They glanced at Rog, who had suddenly appeared in the valley, and then ignored it completely, as if he had been a member of the Elven valley.

Rogge didn't care, he could see that the spirits of these elves were holy and pure, and their whole body and mind had been engaged in the grand magical ritual that was taking place, so focused on everything in the outside world that they were close to turning a blind eye and hearing nothing. Perhaps from another point of view, these elves are motivated by self-confidence. They are hospitable and gentle, but not afraid of anyone causing trouble. In fact, there are many high-skilled warriors among the elves in the Elven Valley, and great magicians abound. The golems that travel around the valley are not only used to carry things, but can also be formidable opponents when necessary.

But Rogge knew that this was not the main reason for the elves' self-confidence. The source of their faith is now in a small building on the edge of the valley.

"Dear Elder Xius, it seems that you haven't had a good time lately!" Rogge pushed open the door of the small building. Said with a smile.

"It's not good, it's just terrible!" said Hughes with a wry smile. His life has not been very good lately, at least at the moment he only has water in his glass. However, the old fox was not at all surprised by Rogge's sudden arrival, as if he had expected him to come.

Rogge sat unceremoniously at the table as usual, and took the teacup in front of Hughes. I just wanted to drink it, but suddenly I found that there was only water in the teacup. I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. But even if it was clear water, he drank it all.

Xius coughed and said, "The magic ritual outside is very expensive, and I have limited savings, so in order to complete this magic ceremony, I have to save some money." Tea is already unaffordable. ”

Rogge was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing. He said, "Elder Xius, your magic ritual is indeed very expensive, and I don't think it is possible for the Asrofik Empire to collect so many rare materials, let alone have such a large number of earth elves contribute their vitality to it. But that doesn't make you even feel like you can't afford to drink tea, but then again, I still haven't figured out what that magic circle is for. It seems that it has gathered all the life forces of the elves, and it seems to be preparing to break through some obstacle and teleport to some dimension. ”

Theseus smiled and said, "Lord Rogge." I don't have to hide it from you now. This magical ritual was prepared to awaken the great Shiloh. ”

Rogge frowned and said, "But I feel that this magic array is not stable, which means that your preparation does not seem to be very sufficient. ”

Theseus sighed and said, "No way. Originally, I thought that there would be at least a few hundred years to prepare this magic array, but I didn't expect this plane to attract the attention of the Heavenly Lord God so quickly, so although the materials and elven mages were not enough. I had to bring the ceremony forward. Now I can only do my best, as for whether I can succeed or not, alas......"

Rogge smiled: "It doesn't matter if he succeeds or not, let's do it first." Even if Shiloh returns to this plane, the end result will be the same. In the eyes of the gods, we are nothing more than humble beings who have devoted themselves to the power of faith. They don't really care about our survival or not, and in that sense, whether the Lord God of the Celestial Realm or Shiloh rules the plane, the result is the same. Those who think that we are believers in the gods that cannot be renounced. In fact, I completely thought that I was the center of the plane. will have such an absurd and arrogant idea. But now it seems that Joshiro completely dominates the plane. At least not worse than the gods of the heavenly realm. ”

Xius raised his eyebrows and stared at Rogge for a moment before saying, "You already know the cause of the Forsaken Lands?"

"Yes......" Rogge sighed softly, the gray forsaken land that only the dead could survive.

When the figure wielding the scythe of death came and went, once upon a time, the world of death was so full of life in his eyes!

"Maybe only if we become gods ourselves will solve these problems......" Rogge said to himself, but he shook his head and said, "No, that's the same." If I had a full Godhead, I would be no different from any other godhead. ”

Xiusi nodded with a smile: "Exactly. Looks like you've learned a lot from the Book of Hiloh! Since you're so relaxed at the moment, you must have made up your mind?"

Rogge smiled, "Yes." I knew I couldn't change the outcome, but that didn't stop me from doing it. ”

Xius nodded and said, "In that case, then what if I fight this old bone, although I am old and useless, and I have nothing to teach you anymore, but as long as my old man wants to, I can let those old things in the heavenly realm get nothing here." But in this way, I am afraid that the Lord of Destruction who has been watching you will personally visit this plane once. The moment he entered this plane, he would definitely have some discomfort with the new space. At that time, you may have a little more chance. ”

As he spoke, Hughes reached out and took out a glittering dagger from his bosom, and slowly unfastened his robe, revealing his toned chest.

Rog stared at Theseus for a moment, then suddenly left his seat and knelt down!

He knew that even if the plane was destroyed with the power of Theseus, why would it be difficult for him to find another place to live?

Hughes looked calm, and slowly stabbed his dagger into his chest. When he was halfway through the stab, he suddenly snorted, stopped the dagger in his hand, and his face became very strange.

Rog looked up in amazement and looked at Hughes suspiciously.

Xiusi also looked puzzled, and only after a while did he say, "This...... It's really strange that someone actually took a step forward and began to destroy the entire plane's source of faith. This...... How is that possible? I can't think of who this man could be. ”。
