Stargazing Tower, Galaxy Guardian residential area.

One of the detached villas, assigned to Allen.

This is the standard treatment enjoyed by two-star guards.

If Eren is particular about enjoyment, he can also spend a little money and hire a personable elf butler, a skilled halfling cook, and a group of amorous succubus maids.

However, he did not feel necessary.

Most of the time, he practiced at a riverside hut.

There's no need to have a housekeeper for an empty house.

The restaurant on the first floor of the Stargazing Tower offers free food throughout the day.

Cleaning, just a magic trick can do it, no need to raise a bunch of idle maids.

As for the bed warmer service provided by the maid, it is even more unnecessary.

Shiva, Renee, Sonia, Spanna, Helent...... Some confidants accompany him to relieve loneliness, but he is afraid that he will not be busy.

Sitting alone in his study, Alan was flipping through a book he had borrowed from the library.

According to the book, Alan learned that in the depths of the River Styx in the Netherworld, a group of poisonous dragons lurked, which was none other than the Leviathan race.

An adult poison dragon, at least a Tier 7 water and poison monster.

Rank 8 poisonous dragons are not unusual.

Occasionally, "multi-headed poisonous dragons" resemble hydra lizards, which are mutated varieties and more dangerous than common poisonous dragons.

Along the River Styx, multi-headed poisonous dragons of the 9th and even legendary levels have been sighted in recent years.

Whenever these giant water monsters appear, there is always a catastrophe.

Alan closed the book, his chin propped up in thought.

The Shadow of the Underworld, the realm of the dead.

Except for the ancestral spirits of the warlock world and the devout followers of the gods, most of the souls of the dead in other planes rest in the underworld after death.

The River Styx originates in the Netherworld and flows through the lower planes.

When a living person comes into contact with the waters of the River Styx, they will suffer a curse and lose their memory.

A descendant of the Progenitor Leviathan, migrating to the underworld, gradually adapted to the local environment, and drank the water of the River Styx directly without losing his memory.

With this special constitution, the Styx poison dragon thrived and the size of the group grew day by day.

Eren can teleport to the underworld and try to hunt a Tier 8 poison dragon to absorb the essence of the bloodline.

But he didn't want to risk losing his memory and becoming an idiot by diving into the River Styx to fight the poisonous dragons who excelled in water warfare.

If you can manage to induce the poisonous dragon to surface on its own initiative, it will obviously be easier to deal with.

With this in mind, Alan stroked the Galaxy Ring on his left hand.

The ring is slightly shiny.

After verifying his identity, Eren established a spiritual link with the Mysterious Barrier of the Holy Demon Ancestral Court.

Through the mind, send a request to the Lost Lock Hub to "consult the task list".

In Allen's view, the Mystery Center is like the "intelligent brain" described in science fiction in the previous life.

It stores a huge amount of data, and it has far more computing power than humans to coordinate and coordinate every aspect of the city.

After a short time, Alan received feedback from the Mystery Lock Center.

A large amount of data poured into his mind through the spiritual link.

Alan rubbed his forehead and ordered the gluttonous system to filter out the items related to the Styx Poison Dragon from all the tasks issued by the seven major sect masters.

In the blink of an eye, the selected tasks are presented in my mind.

One of the background introductions caught his attention.

……

Objective: Hunt and kill "Pale Moonlight" Qiaro (Tier 8 Shadow Silver Dragon/Apostle of the Evil God/Awakened in the Transcendent Realm)

Mission Description:

Kiara, the prime-aged silver dragon of the fairy wilderness.

He was once the guardian of the elven city of Twilight.

Somehow, the believers who degenerated into the ancient evil god "Queen of the Moon" secretly established a church in Dawn City to worship the Queen of the Moon and develop cultists.

After the cult activities were exposed, they were jointly attacked by the two orthodox sects of Twilight City, the "Holy Light Church" and the "Life Church".

In order to redeem the defeat, Qiaro led a small group of fanatical cultists, slaughtered his compatriots, and offered blood sacrifices to the evil god "Queen of the Moon".

The moment the blood sacrifice was completed, the sky was covered in darkness.

The earth cracked into the abyss, like a pitch-black throat, and swallowed Dawn City whole.

The inhabitants of the city came back to their senses and found ......

The city where you live has been transported to the dark, ghostly underworld!

Fortunately, at the last moment, the mistress of the Emerald Court was alert and manipulated the roots of the World Tree to entangle Twilight City.

Stop this elven city in time to fall into the River Styx.

Tens of thousands of residents of the city were able to temporarily save their lives.

The cultists, led by Qi Yaluo, were unwilling to let the sacrificial ceremony fall short.

On the one hand, they wreak havoc in the city, slaughtering dissidents, and at the same time intensify their blood sacrifices, summoning the poisonous dragons lurking in the depths of the River Styx in an attempt to gnaw at the roots of the World Tree.

If Kiara's plot succeeds and the roots of the World Tree are gnawed off by the poisonous dragons, Dawn City will irretrievably fall into the River Styx.

The entire inhabitants of the city, with the exception of Kiaro and his followers, were spared the fate of the River Styx.

In order to stop this looming disaster, both the "Heavenly Tower" and the "Emerald Court" have issued urgent missions.

Recruit the Guardians of the Galaxy to the Underworld to save Twilight City.

……

After reading the background introduction, Alan went on to check out the quests related to Twilight.

For each task, there is information that is updated in real time.

Including which Galaxy Guardians have been claimed and how far the mission has progressed.

By viewing these instant messages, you can avoid crashes and wasted manpower.

It just so happened that Alan saw three familiar names on the task list.

Felin, Tauna, and Nora.

……

Job ID: 07009

Time Limit: Two days

The Church of the Moon God is trying to call on the Styx Poison Dragon to gnaw off the roots of the World Tree and cause Dawnlight City to fall into the Underworld completely!

Try to stop the crazed cultists, protect Dawn City, and kill Kiara!

……

Job ID: 07010

Time Limit: One week

Destroy the Cult of the Moon God entrenched in Dawn City and rebuild the Church of Life.

……

Job ID: 07011

Time Limit: One week

Destroy the Cult of the Moon God entrenched in Twilight City and rebuild the Church of the Holy Light.

……

Tauna, Ferrin, and Nora all took on the first mission.

Tauna and Ferrin also took on the second and third tasks respectively.

Alan knew that the goddess of life worshipped by the "Church of Life" was actually the "Lord of Life" among the seven sect masters of the Holy Demon Ancestral Court, Luo Tianhua, who awakened the "Source of Life".

As for the idols of the "Church of the Light", not to mention.

Tauna took over the task of rebuilding the "Church of Life", and Ferrin took over the task of rebuilding the "Church of the Light", which sounded more like the work of the clergy.

Does it show that the two are no longer pure warlocks?

With questions in mind, Alan sent a letter to two old friends.

After exchanging letters, Alan and the two agreed to meet in front of the portal gate and go to the underworld together.

The cultists of Twilight City summoned the poisonous dragon from the bottom of the river to the city, but they inadvertently helped Allen a lot.

A poisonous dragon that has landed on the shore is easier to deal with than in a river.

The main purpose of Allen's trip is to hunt the poisonous dragon, and by the way, help Fei Lin and Tauna complete the task of fighting the cult, and he can also earn some merits and improve the level of the Star Guardian.

In addition, you can exchange the Meritorious Service Points you earn for some magic shells that you can use to disguise the magic shells you have picked up on the riverside.

Make an appointment with Felin and Tauna to meet, and Alan takes on the task number 07009.

Then he drew some blood from himself and concocted an anti-poison.

His toxin resistance, up to Tier 8, is enough to resist the Leviathan toxin of the Tier 8 poison dragon.

These two anti-poisons were prepared for Ferrin and Tauna.

Alan was ready to go out when he suddenly sensed a familiar mental fluctuation.

Turning to look, he happened to see a looming shadow, silently, through the wall, appearing in front of him.

It's a long-lost Fengyue!

Alan's heart suddenly sank!

"Huh...... Old friend, are you surprised to see me here? Not surprised? ”

Fengyue's laughter sounded a little cold.

"It was really surprising, I thought it was ......"

Alan groaned, apologetic.

"I'm sorry, Fengyue, I made an appointment with a friend to meet, I'm in a hurry, can we talk another day?"

"What's the hurry, I can't delay you for a few minutes."

Fengyue was like a vengeful ghost, sneering and approaching.

"Alan, my dear friend, why are you avoiding me?"

"I guess, you probably did something sorry for me, such as betraying the Holy Spirit Society and betraying me to the Holy Demon Ancestral Court?"

"I didn't......

Alan tried to defend himself, but she snapped the conversation.

"If you really didn't do anything wrong, why don't you dare to look me in the eye!"

“…………”

……

On the square of the stargazing tower, a pillar of light rises.

The chubby young warlock walked out of the teleportation array.

At this moment, a crisp voice called from behind him.

"Hey! Felin! ”

The chubby young man turned around and waved his hand to the blue-haired and blue-eyed beautiful girl with a smile.

"Tao Na, I haven't seen you for a month, and I'm pretty again."

"Come on! Boy, don't come with me for this. ”

Tauna glanced at him.

"Allen's ecstasy soup can't stun me, your ability to talk is far worse than him, save your energy! To be serious, what kind of cultivation are you kid doing now? ”

"Late Fifth Order, what about you?"

"I was in retreat at the riverside hut for a month, and I only ascended to the early stage of the sixth order the day before yesterday! It's good that I didn't catch up with you! ”

Tauna patted her chest with feigned grief.

"Don't worry, it's impossible for me to surpass a genius girl like you in the cultivation realm in my life." Ferrin smiled wryly.

Tao Na shook her head and encouraged her old friend seriously: "You are underestimating yourself by saying that, Felin, don't forget, now you have fused the bloodline of the Beamon Behemoth and the Lion Head Heaven!" Even in the Holy Demon Ancestral Court, he can be called extremely talented, and he may not be able to surpass me in the future. ”

"If one day, my cultivation surpasses yours, will you be unhappy and disown me as a friend?" Ferrin asked.

"I'm not the kind of person who is cautious! You are better than me, I will be proud of you, and then redouble my efforts and strive to overtake! ”

The two walked as they chatted and walked across the plaza to the portal to the underworld.

Tauna paused and looked Ferrin up and down.

The fat boy wore a silver chain mail, a long sword at his waist, and a snow-white cape.

Tauna also noticed that Ferrin's hilt was carved with an emblem that resembled the sun.

The same gold insignia is also on the back of the cape.

It is clearly the emblem of the "Holy Light Church"!

"You kid, you're obviously a warlock, how can you dress like a holy warrior?"

Tauna had doubts in her eyes.

"Aren't you going to join the 'Church of Light' and become a priest?"

"Well...... Not exactly. ”

Fei Lin's face was slightly embarrassed.

"As you know, my 'Behemoth Angel' bloodline belongs to a branch of the Celestial Warlocks, and I often deal with the predecessors of the 'Heavenly Tower'."

"I heard from my predecessors that the Holy Demon Ancestral Court also has factions."

"The seven sect masters, each with their own faction, exist in the form of a sect, and their headquarters are located in the residences of the seven major sect masters."

"For example, the Church of the Holy Light, which is headquartered in the Tower of Heaven."

"There is also the Church of Life, based in the Emerald Court of the Fairy Wilderness, you often mix over there, you should know better than me."

"The new Galaxy Guardian, it's best to join one of the factions according to your own mentorship or bloodline."

"Otherwise, if you go it alone and have no one to help you, it will be difficult to get out of the way."

"So, you chose to join the 'Church of Light' and become a Celestial Warlock and Holy Light Priest?" Tauna then asked.

"Not a priest." Fei Lin hurriedly emphasized, "I am an 'apostle' of the Holy Light Church, and I have received the blessing of the 'Lord of Light', which can guide the Holy Light, heal wounds, and fight against necromancy, demons, and cultists, nothing more. ”

"'Holy Light Blessing' is essentially 'Divine Grace', the so-called 'Holy Light Apostle', to put it bluntly, is not a priest!"

Tauna laughed and debunked.

Fei Lin rubbed his fat face in embarrassment, and explained to himself:

"Actually, I decided to become an 'Apostle of Light', in addition to being forced by the environment, mainly due to the influence of Allen's kid."

"What's the matter, Alan has also joined the Church of Light?" Tauna's eyes widened in surprise.

"Not really, but he said to me in private, 'Lord of Light', whose name was Ingres before he was reincarnated, is an old classmate and good friend of me and Alan."

"Although after the reincarnation, my lord is no longer Ingres, and he still retains some memories of his previous life, and he takes special care of me, an old classmate."

"Don't dislike my low strength, he took the initiative to invite me to join the Holy Light Church and become the lowest and youngest apostle around him, and said that he was very optimistic about my future."

"Tao Na, in good conscience, can you refuse to be promoted like this?"

"That's right." Tao Na felt the same way, "If I were you, I would be flattered...... It's a pity that Luo Tianhua, the 'Lord of Life' worshipped by the 'Church of Life', is not my old acquaintance, otherwise I would have made up my mind to become an apostle of life. ”

Sighing, Tauna continued:

"Actually, there is a distant relative of the Russell family in the Jade Royal Court, who was a rare genius in the warlock world in a hundred years, recruited by Origin City, and now he is an eighth-order natural warlock and a four-star galaxy guard."

"This Master Qinglan, who cares about my family, takes care of me very much, and even invited me to join the Life Church."

"But...... I still can't get over that hurdle in my heart, I always feel that the warlock is incompatible with the church, and joining the church is tantamount to giving in to the opposing camp, betraying the ancestors who sacrificed their lives against the church of the gods in ancient times to preserve the lineage of the warlocks. ”

Speaking of this, a hint of confusion appeared in Tauna's eyes.

A warlock who works part-time as a priest, offering faith to idols, will still worship his ancestors?

If the interests of the family and the church conflicted, which side would she choose?

In ancient times, the Patriarchs did everything they could to seal the gods, suppress the Church, and establish the dominance of the Warlock family.

Warlocks have become almost the only transcendent heritage in this world.

Now, it seems that the wind has changed......

The sect masters of the Holy Demon Ancestral Court adhered to tradition verbally and opposed religious worship, but in private, they engaged in religious societies, and even actively preached in all major planes in the name of the gods.

also selected potential Galaxy Guardians and developed them into so-called "apostles", to put it bluntly, aren't they high-level clergy?

What are these strange status quos that are inconsistent?

If these questions were not thought through, Tao Na could not make up her mind to accept Master Qinglan's invitation to join the Church of Life.

In fact, Felin couldn't help her with any questions.

He is more open-minded and adaptable to new environments.

Instead of pondering philosophical and theological problems, or concerned with the struggle for legal unity, consider the immediate interests first.

If joining the church can bring him benefits and there is no obvious harm, then join.

"Tauna, since you didn't join the Church of Life, why did you take on the task of rebuilding the Church of Life in Dawn City?"

Felin changed the subject.

He is an "Apostle of the Light" who can use the emblem to inspire the Light and prove his identity.

The Holy Light cultists in Dawn City naturally accepted his leadership and rebuilt the church that had been destroyed by the cultists.

Tao Na is not an "Apostle of Life", so how can she gain the trust of the Life Cultists of Dawn City?

"Master Qinglan is the protagonist of the reconstruction of the Life Church in Twilight City, and I took over this task just to help her, and by the way, I will touch her light and make some meritorious deeds."

Tauna stuck out her tongue and explained with a smirk.

In order to hide his embarrassment, he took out his pocket watch and looked at the time.

"I made an appointment to meet at nine o'clock, why hasn't Alan come yet?"

"I guess he's probably haunted by some confidante."

Ferrin said with a smile.

Before the words fell, a pillar of teleportation light suddenly rose nearby.

Both of them thought it was Allen coming, and hurriedly greeted them.

In the teleportation array, there was no figure of Allen.

Four majestic silver dragons emerged collectively.

One of them is an adult silver dragon, wearing an ornate saddle.

A long-haired woman in a green dress sits elegantly on the back of a dragon.
