On the same night, the capital of the Holy Kingdom is still so prosperous, but something special happened tonight!

The light of wisdom of the Tower of Truth illuminates the sky, and the Mercenary Guild sends a proclamation to the mainland, even the church;

It's a story about the Scarlet Empire.

The three major forces of the Magic Tower, the Mercenary Guild, and the Church have reached an alliance with the Scarlet Empire, which will help the Scarlet Empire to a certain extent, and at the same time prove that the previous information about the Red Blood Demonic Beast and the Blood Corpse has nothing to do with the Scarlet Empire, all of this is a conspiracy!

The news began to spread across the continent at a very fast speed, and as the manipulators behind the Holy Kingdom, Kirk Blank, Hawthorne Warward, and Randeep Sith;

Be the first to learn about this information, and even know more, such as what is going on in the Scarlet Trial Tower, and what kind of agreement the Magic Tower, the Mercenary Guild, and the Church have reached with the Scarlet Empire;

Although these things were not announced to the public, they all had their own ways of finding out the news in various forces, and in the depths of the kingdom castle, at this time, an old man was half-lying on the bed, coughing constantly;

The maid on the side was feeding the old man the medicinal soup, and with the medicinal soup, the old man's state became a little better, and then the maid left here;

In the empty house, there was a coughing sound from time to time, and after this continued for a while, the sound of footsteps came from outside the door, and gradually drifted away, and then the sound of the guards in charge of monitoring gradually leaving;

Suddenly a whirlwind blew outside the window, and this whirlwind easily opened the windows of the house, and then a black mist blew into the room;

In the black mist was a man dressed in a black robe and wearing a felt hat, and when he saw the old man on the bed, this person took off the felt hat very politely, revealing his golden curly hair, and bowed halfway to the old man;

"Well, Great Your Majesty Houston, have you considered what you want, I can grant you any wish, and of course the price is your soul!"

After half bowing, the man raised his head, and by the dim candlelight of the room, he could see a pale and tall face, and as the words fell, a gold coin swirled in the air;

Seeing such a person enter his room in such a strange way, Houston, who was lying on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes, and his originally cloudy eyes became bright at this moment, revealing wisdom;

At the same time, Houston did not cough, as if he was a normal person, or healthier than a normal person, he first squeezed his fists, and after feeling the power in them, he sighed slightly;

"Mr. Alam, is my soul really very valuable?"

"Of course, in this city, I have searched many people, and their souls are more or less broken, but yours is different, a pure white and complete piece;

It's rare to see such a complete soul, otherwise I wouldn't have obtained your soul in this way, you should have made a decision now, after all, you don't have much left in your life!"

What is the condition of his body, only he knows, Karl III knows how long his body can last, originally at this time, he can no longer do anything else;

But since he met the curly-haired man in front of him, many things have changed, and today is the last time they will see each other, because the next time will be when he dies;

"What I want is to restore the Holy Kingdom to its former glory, and restore our Houston family to its original level, have you done this?"

Hearing Houston's question, Mammon's incarnation, Aram, smiled slightly, without much explanation, the gold coin fell, forming a scale at the moment of falling;

"Is this what you want?" Holding the scale, Alam smiled at Houston, and at the same time the scale began to glow violently, as if waiting for Karl III Houston's answer;

"If I could, this would be my wish, even if it was to take my soul!"

As Carl III Houston's words fell, the scales in Alam's hand burst into dazzling light, and at this moment, a hand passed through Carl III Houston's chest;

A beating heart was dragged out of Karl III's body by Alam, and strangely enough, there was no blood on it;

"Carl III Houston, are you willing to give your soul heart in exchange for everything you want!"

Karl III was momentarily shocked to see his heart being pulled out, but soon Alam's voice told him that it was all true;

"I ...... I am willing, as long as the Holy Kingdom is restored to its glory and the Houston family is restored, no matter what, I am willing to give it!"

After Karl III said these words, the dazzling light around him began to shrink, gradually turning into a white feather that emitted a white light and placed it on the side of the scale in Karam's hand;

"Your Majesty Houston, if your soul is lighter than this feather, then I can help you fulfill your wishes!"

"Lighter than this feather, is this possible?" Karl III looked at his heart with doubts, and slowly put it behind the Libra IQ, shaking from side to side;

The tray containing the feathers slowly fell, and the tray that carried the heart of Karl III was held high, seeing this scene, Karl III showed a relaxed scene;

"This ...... This should ...... It's a success!" After seeing this scene, Karl III still said with some uncertainty;

"Yes, Your Majesty Houston, your deal is concluded, this thing is handed over to your approved heir, he will use it to fulfill your long-cherished wish, as for your soul heart, three nights later, I will come to get it, the deal is over!"

When Alam saw the performance on the scale, he took the white feather off and handed it to Thewton, and after a flash of golden light, Alam disappeared as if he had not come;

Karl III was looking at the white feather in his hand, and the wind-blown window, all this was true, and at this time, there was the sound of hurried footsteps outside the door;

With a click, an armored guard walked in, he first looked at Karl III who was lying on the bed, and the constant coughing reassured him, and then he went to the window, closed it, and then walked out without saying a word;

In the empty and dark room, it was back to the same as before, coughing continuously, except for a white feather clutched tightly in Karl III's hand, and after a long time, Karl III spoke;

"It's time for Lott to come back!"

......................................................................................................

Just as Aram and Karl III had completed their deal, people sensed it everywhere on the Apocalypse Road, and these were the people who had appeared in the vault before;

South - Tagan Desert

In the dry environment, some of them seemed desolate and lonely, but in such a place there was a place full of greenery, not only an oasis, but also a towering giant tree;

The giant tree is full of huge fruits, and between this giant tree, the angels with the wings of the elders are constantly flying, waiting for the dripping dew under each fruit, which is the most miraculous holy water of the church;

Above the restrained canopy, there is a ball of light, and in the ball of light is a perfect angel - Lucifer;

When Alam's deal was completed, Lucifer naturally sensed it, and although he admired the power of greed, he had always disapproved of this trick;

After wandering in the void for a long time, they received a pull to come here—on the Apocalypse Road, and after a long rest, Lucifer was the first to awaken;

Representing the original sin of arrogance, he saw the world on the path of the apocalypse, and naturally wanted to convert it into his own world, so he began his plan, and he was almost successful;

But the realm spirit of the apocalypse world awakened, and he was weak enough to fight against a newborn realm spirit, so he had to wake up his companions and gradually encroach, and the way he chose was to establish a holy garden and devour the origin of the world!

This is its fruit, the original Stormwind City, now the Garden of Eden, and the protection here is the mysterious empire that almost overthrew the Holy Kingdom - the Shurima Empire!

"Mammon's success, they should also feel oppressed, after all, this world is so big!"

This time, Lucifer smiled for the first time, and the light of Lucifer's smile was much brighter than that of the sun in the sky, and he snapped his fingers, and an angel flew up, holding a cup in his hand;

The cup contains crystal clear holy water, which is different from ordinary holy water, in this cup of holy water, there is the appearance of a demonic beast, and if you look closely, this is the incarnation of a spirit beast;

At this time, the fruits on this giant tree emitted light, and the colors that appeared in the light were all different spirit beast shapes, and the fruits here were actually formed by spirit beasts.

In the north, snow-capped mountains

Samael, armed with a dark red heavy sword, was surrounded by a bloodhound wrapped in dark red skin and with a stinging ring around his neck;

The hound seemed to be chewing something in its mouth at this time, and not far away a huge body lay on the ground, vaguely looking like a large lizard;

"Old friend, you don't have anything good to entertain you when you come out, you eat this wurm first, and when you are full, we will go into the depths of the snowy mountains and roast a dragon to taste!"

The cold, haughty, taciturn Samael, here behaved like an old neighbor, stroking the back of the hound, with a kind smile on his face;

He was responded to by a bark, and at this time, Samael also sensed the deal between the incarnation of Mammon, Aram, and Karl III;

Stroking the hound's hand, he stopped, feeling something strange, and the hound turned around and looked at Samael, whose face was gloomy;

"What's the matter, old man, what's wrong?"

A strong voice came from the throat of the hound, the most ordinary hound could actually speak, and the hound's voice awakened the pensive Samael;

"Oh, it's okay, that guy from Mammon, he still walks the fastest, and the revival hasn't been completed long after, no wonder Lucifer put him at the end before releasing him!"

"Is it already a part of the Origin Power?"

"It has not been long since the birth of the realm spirit of this world, its origin power has not spread, it is not so easy to obtain, and Mammon is just an entrance to pry open the origin power. ”

"That's right, yes, the manipulation of human nature by a few of them is not something we can understand, after all, although this place is different from the world before us, most of the creatures here are people!"

"I don't care to be like them, manipulating the soul power of humans to obtain the original power, only to take it myself is the most real!"

"That's right, old man, let's move on, I still want to eat what it's like to eat the dragons of this world!"

"Hahahaha, old friend, you'll love it, it's very chewy and it's delicious!"

"Let's hope so, this wurm won't be enough to stuff your teeth!"

East Zehai

Scattered all over the Apocalypse Continent is the Rock Forest, but the Rock Forest only spans the entire continent, and the outer periphery of the continent is wrapped in a vast ocean;

After passing through the rocky forest and climbing over the Sunset Mountains, you will discover a new world, a city built on the seashore - Pictore!

Pictor has a very long history, almost as long as the Holy Federation, but it has not declined like the Holy Kingdom, because Pictor has taken a different direction;

Pictoe relied not just on military might, but on the arts, crafts, trade, and innovation that went hand in hand, along with extensive trade cooperation;

The Warward family's trade could not be separated from Pictor by sea, looking down on the sea, fleets of ships passing through its vast bay gorges, laden with goods from all over the Apocalypse Continent.

The wealth brought by the maritime trade has played a great role in the development of the city of Picodor and has carried out revolutionary innovations to create a city of wealth and dreams.

The talents of the alchemists, who have been ostracized by the Federation, are blossomed here, and Pictor provides them with protection and a platform, a grand hodgepodge of art, unpopular alchemical research, and monumental buildings that symbolize their strength;

And behind all this is the impetus of Asmantis, who stimulates the desire in the heart, and the opening of desire stimulates the potential, creating this advanced city, and he/she has become the new faith of the people here;

"Brother, Mammon seems to have started, should we do it too?"

"Oh, my dear sister, don't worry, Mammon is still following the practices of the previous generation, look at our results, I believe that in the end, this continent will still be immersed in endless desires!"

"Hahahaha, you're right, then we need to warn Leviathan, she's been moving too often lately!"

"The archipelago in the ocean is what we care about, as for her, Leviathan's ability has completely controlled the entire ocean, our current strength is still not comparable to hers, we need to wait!"

"Got it, brother......"

....................................................................................

the endless sea, the mountains and the archipelago;

Leviathan's body lurks in a dark sea, and not far away is a bay, a very dangerous bay, which is also the entrance to the mountains archipelago - the gulf of Geewater;

It is inhabited by robbers, despicables, paranoid scientists, evil magicians, etc., and almost the most wanted criminals of the entire continent gather here, because it is their safe haven;

At this time, one after another sandbags fell into the dark sea on the dangerous bay of Givot, and at the sight of these sandbags, Leviathan's blue pupils flashed;

"Why are you thrown into the sea, is it not strong enough, is there no spiritual source, do you want to have it all, accept me, I can let you get what you don't get!"

The sandbags were full of corpses that had been cut into pieces, and the moment they were thrown into the sea, their souls who had not dispersed heard the Leviathan's whisper, and without exception they all agreed to receive Leviathan's help;

One by one, the corpses climbed from the sea to the harbor of the Gulf of Gewater, and a long line of blue crystals wound their corpses, and slowly walked towards the depths of the Gulf of Gerwater;

Absorbing the souls of these people, Leviathan's eyes became brighter and brighter, and even its countenance and body were fair and immature for a hundred years;

"My, my...... Everything is mine!"

................................................................................................

Sunset Mountains, the city of Banderbia;

A special city, the Sunset Mountains, like the Rock Forest, on the Apocalypse Road, is a place where all adventures take place, but many more prefer to come here;

Because in the city of Banderbia, all the delicacies of the continent are gathered, and the taste of the food and water here is intoxicating for years - once tasted, it will be unforgettable;

The sun melts here, the spring water never stops, every plant bears fruit, and the people and orcs who live here have a particularly high level of cooking skills.

For mercenaries, there are all kinds of secret realms in the Sunset Mountains, and there are even some secret realms that have never been discovered, and after the adventure, taste the unique food of Banderbia, and everything will be beautiful;

But the city of Banderbia is not so easy to find, it is called a paradise for all chefs, because as long as the food made by the chef is approved by the lord of Banderbia, then the chef will get everything he wants;

And the lord of the city of Banderbia, who was replaced a long time ago, is the original sin of gluttony - Beelzebub;

"Master, wo this is our last course, we don't have a chef anymore, we need to start the cooking competition again!"

Beelzebub didn't say anything but took up the knife and fork in his hand and began to eat, while the attendant, who called Beelzebub an adult, waited;

After some time, Beelzebub finished eating, and the knife and fork in his hand were gray, and then a terrible scream came from not far away, and then a fragment of his soul floated into the knife and fork;

"Then go and prepare, I'm hungry!"

"Yes, master!"
