Chapter 15: The Coming of the Lord of Dusk
"Huh?"
Someone is calling me again?
Ji Yan was lying on the sofa, he put down the booklet in his hand, picked up the water and drank it slowly.
The system's reminder kept flashing, but he wasn't in such a hurry.
How many times have you been summoned this week?
Ji Yan's fingertips unconsciously rubbed the transparent glass, feeling the temperature of his fingertips, and he closed his eyes.
It's the third time, right......
Is the summoning frequency a bit frequent this week?
It's not that Ji Yan doesn't want to respond to the call of believers, most of the callings, he can get some good gadgets, which has some benefits for him.
What if one day you get something good that will make you ascend to the stars?
But since the first summoning, according to the law of Ji Yan's groping, the frequency of summoning has basically remained at once every two weeks.
I don't know why there was a change this week, and yesterday's two summons can be understood as accidents.
Today's summoning Ji Yan is also a little incomprehensible.
The changes in the system today made his heart a little heavy.
Ji Yan thinks that he doesn't have a complete understanding of the system, but after getting along day and night, he has roughly figured out the rules.
The change in the number of summons and the appearance of the friend function let him know that the system is not static, but it is not yet time to change.
But if the system is really going to be against him, there is no way he will sit here.
Ji Yan breathed a long sigh of relief and relieved the troubles in his heart.
"Answer."
"Wait, we're connecting......"
"The connection is successful, and the ...... is started"
……
The Great Mines of the Mass Empire, which was originally the heart of a country, countless steel was initially smelted and sent to all parts of the country, and many people traveled thousands of miles to find high salaries and low-cost housing, and the mining settlement developed into a city.
In its heyday, it had hundreds of thousands of workers associated with it, thirteen mines, countless mining machines.
The city is located next to the mines, which can also be said to be part of the city.
When the mine's resources were depleted until it was finally defined as a dead mine, the machines stopped roaring, and the blast furnaces, which had been lit, extinguished the flames.
Countless civilians who made a living from this had no choice but to leave here and find their own way out.
At this moment, a group of uninvited guests suddenly broke into the mine that was no longer populated.
In the center of the mine, there is a tall wooden statue with a blurred face, and it is obvious that it has not been standing for long when looking at the new marks on its body.
The debris had been cleaned of the surrounding area and covered with a dense layer of white stones.
Several black-robed believers knelt in front of the wooden statue, their faces solemn, and none of them made a sound.
"Sand, sand, sand."
A fat man in a fancy costume approached, his expensive leather boots rustling on the stones.
Look at the flame symbol of the cufflinks on the body, it is the family crest of the noble, representing the identity of the nobleman who came.
The believers present frowned at the deliberate noise, feeling uncomfortable for someone's disrespectful behavior in front of the idol.
The old man closest to the wooden statue stood up, and he turned to the rude nobleman with a calm face.
"Viscount Kanas, please be polite in front of the gaze of the gods."
This viscount is a supporter of the new joining the Twilight Order, and the members of the Twilight Order want to develop in the upper class, and the support of the nobility is indispensable.
Therefore, Darren did not get angry easily when facing this viscount, even if he had been promoted to Morning Star Warlock, but if he caused the malice of the nobles, the development of the Twilight Order in the upper class of society would be difficult to move forward.
Darren calmly admonished Viscount Kanas on the surface, but actually smiled coldly inwardly.
He was already looking forward to what Viscount Kanas would behave in the face of the arrival of the Lord of Dusk.
Since the last time the Lord of Twilight came, he had been fortunate enough to receive a gift from God and had successfully promoted to the Morning Star Warlock, a chasm that ordinary people could not cross in their lifetime, was so ridiculous in front of the Lord of Twilight.
Darren felt the power in his body, and his belief in the Lord of Twilight grew stronger and stronger.
It has been rumored that the Lord of Twilight has responded to many Orders, and that He is now the easiest god to respond to believers on all continents.
It's hard to say whether these news are true or not, but Darren, as a person who has experienced it firsthand, is naturally convinced of it.
As long as you continue to worship to the Lord of the Dusk, you will be answered, and as long as you are firm in your daily faith, you will receive gifts from Him.
He already had a premonition that the Order of Twilight was about to rise.
For thousands of years, the Order of Dusk has been constantly suppressed and weakened, and they can only hide in the sewers and run around like rats.
But now, times have changed!
And he will be remembered by history forever as a witness!
Thinking of this, Darren felt the urge to burst into tears, but he suppressed it in front of outsiders.
With the gift of the Lord of Dusk to promote him to the rank of Morning Star Warlock, the nobles now have to turn to them for help.
Viscount Kanas's city administrator is about to retire, and he wants to become the administrator, but he has several strong competitors, so he asks for help from the Order of Dusk, or more simply, from Darren, the Morning Star Warlock.
Viscount Kanas didn't want to offend a Morning Star Warlock either, and he expressed his apologies with a somewhat stiff face.
Darren returned to the idol and began chanting the ancient incantation with the other believers.
"It's at the intersection of the sun and the moon."
"Let's go to the endless twilight."
"The agnostic of life and death."
"Wanderer of Endless Chaos."
"The Lord of Twilight with supreme power."
"We're here."
"An unknown Noble Phantasm for you."
"Show your power and guide the world to the twilight."
"Bring the ultimate tranquility."
A group of believers worshipped religiously, while Viscount Kanas watched with interest, his heart was full of disdain, if it wasn't for Darren's request, he might not have come.
After all, he doesn't believe in any gods, and he doesn't believe much in the existence of gods, he only believes in rights.
Time passed little by little, Kanas looked at Darren and the others who were still kneeling on the ground praying sincerely, and yawned twice, as he was about to leave.
Suddenly, a thick, distorted aura began to permeate, and the mine seemed to be distorted.
Viscount Kanas felt this terrifying aura, and his whole person seemed to be frozen, frozen in place.
His adrenaline was soaring, and it was reflected in his body in the form of a faster heartbeat, faster breathing, dilated pupils, and increased blood pressure.
A shocking guess popped into Viscount Kanas's mind.
Could it be ......
In the next second, a huge star pressed across the sky.
Lord of Dusk, Come!
