Chapter 47:
The priest took off his burgundy velvet robe, and the two attendants behind him took the robe respectfully and stepped back silently.
A paladin in plate armor walked up to the priest, and the pure gold flame cross embedded in the breastplate glittered in the candlelight: "Archbishop, news of the dragon hunters, their special air warband has been completely wiped out. ”
The priest had already learned the news from the maiden in the garden, and he had been reprimanded for mentioning the armies of the Celestial Realm, so he was in a bad mood. Especially after being mentioned on this topic by this tin can, the paladin also looked a little hateful in the eyes of the priest.
Years of forbearance had allowed him to suppress the fire in his heart, and the fierce strife in the Holy See did not allow him to reveal any personal feelings in public: "Stand down, this matter has been told by the Supreme Goddess of Light." ”
The priest paused, and handed the thing in his hand to the paladin: "This is the divine grace that has just been blessed, take it and distribute it to the knights." ”
After the paladin took the thing with a frenzied face, he couldn't suppress his excitement, and his breathing couldn't help but get worse. He was stunned for a moment, and then respectfully walked backwards out of the room.
He had just been promoted to this position, and it had been less than a month since he was transferred to the archbishop's side, but he could not help but be a little excited to receive the divine grace given by the archbishop with his own hands.
The priest was secretly amused, for it was just an ordinary pancake, which had been his breakfast, but when he thought of the person he was going to meet next, he had no appetite at all. Instead of feeding these freshly baked cheese crepes to the dogs, you should give them to the brainless bunch. A hot-blooded paladin.
After all, compared to the pit bulls outside, this group of knights gave back to themselves more than just waging their tails.
The Pope's lifespan is coming to an end. It won't be long before there will be a big reshuffle in the Holy See, and he must not let go of any opportunity, even if it is a small detachment of knights stationed in his diocese, he must work hard.
Of course, the biggest chip is inside the inconspicuous wooden door in front of you. That is, the person he is about to meet.
The priest was reluctant to go in to see her, but many things, even if he climbed to his position. It's not up to him.
Some rough hands pressed against the grip of the door, and the priest hesitated a little, then pushed the door in.
Outside the church, there is a pair of barely perceptible eyes. Through several layers of heavy stone walls, the priest's back was gazed. After watching him walk through the door. The door slowly closes, and the thin door panel blocks the view that even the mountain wall can easily penetrate.
The bard, sitting at a street stall, muttered as he drank his wine, "St. Antis...... In order to put a holy word in front of his name, do you want to sell yourself to such a false god?"
————————————
Wang Ming stood in place, stunned for a long time, and then reacted. And the first thing he reacted to was to pounce on Scarlet Moon and push Scarlet Moon to the ground and hold her......
Hugged her and cried.
"Master......! I almost thought I'd never see you again, woo-woo-woo......"
Crimson Moon didn't do anything. Just reached out and touched his head.
"Am I not dead?"
Wang Ming involuntarily rubbed on Scarlet Yue's body: "You scared me to death...... Eun, so smooth skin......"
Scarlet Moon's face darkened. Stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, and a stream of ice water was immediately poured on the two of them. It was just that in the Crimson Moon's almost molecular-level spell micro-manipulation, these ice water only soaked Wang Ming's body.
However, Scarlet Moon was self-defeating, and Wang Ming, who was stimulated by the ice water, hugged Scarlet Moon tightly because of the cold.
Seeing that the plot was out of control, Zi Ma picked up Wang Ming from the ground, put it aside, and stared at Scarlet Yue's body left and right: "Is it completely recovered?"
Scarlet Moon looked at her hand and clenched it loosely: "The spell-casting ability has been restored, but the body still needs time to build, and it will take about a month or so to restore the combat power." ”
Zi Ma looked around at the surroundings: "Speaking of which, it's the first time you've used this room, and you've never been resurrected?"
Scarlet Moon replied: "I was resurrected in Crimson Moon Mountain before, but this time I was seriously injured, and if I stay in Scarlet Moon Mountain, I may be found by the enemy." ”
Wang Ming, who heard the conversation between the two, asked curiously, "Isn't this the Scarlet Moon Mountain?"
Zi Ma pushed open the window of the room outside and pointed to the colorful sky outside the window: "Of course not, this is Longkong Mountain, the territory of the Dragon Clan." ”
This world is not only the realm of the main plane, but also the surrounding of this continent, dotted with various inner planes, outer planes and transition planes, and in the collision of various planes, fragmented half-planes are constantly generated or destroyed in the storm of time and space. However, there are also many half-planes that have been transformed by certain indiscriminate coercive existence zài, or are located in a special space-time dimension, which has escaped the fate of disappearing and is constantly expanding to form new planes.
Longkong Mountain is such an outer plane that grows from a half-plane.
The dragons lost their qualification to establish themselves in the main plane in the long-forgotten ancient wars and were expelled from the Phantom Sea Continent, and this is a refuge for dragons created by the dragons with all their might, and all dragons or high-level wurm creatures loyal to the dragon god can get a place to live.
There are no external factors that can threaten the creatures that inhabit Longkong Mountain, and what supports this guarantee is the Dragon Temple Guard, which is composed of dozens of high-level dragons.
and the legendary power of the five primeval dragons.
The overall shape of Longkong Mountain is a huge floating peak floating in five-colored gases, and the surface of the floating peak automatically generates gravity towards the center of the mountain, so there is no strict distinction between up and down on the outside.
Huge dragon dens have been dug into the mountain wall, and the gravity inside the dragon dens must be set at the time of digging.
In fact, the real principle of the dragon's lair is to dig a space-time cave on Longkong Mountain, which has the characteristics of dimensional distortion, except for a little depression at the entrance of the cave, the rest of the space is located in the other dimension of the creation of zào out of thin air.
It is very troublesome to dig this kind of dragon's lair, and it is necessary to have a dragon with half-dimensional mining and exploration ability to create a dragon's lair. However, there is a half-dimensional exploration scroll for sale on the official market of Longkong Mountain, which costs three thousand dragon coins.
The caves of the Scarlet Moon were all created by himself, and he cultivated them with his spatial spells. Not only has a huge arsenal been built here, but there is even a set of portal matrices leading to the various large settlements of the main plane.
Of course, one of them leads to Crimson Moon Mountain.
"Master, can we use these portals?" Wang Ming couldn't help but want to play with it when he saw such a strange device for the first time.
Scarlet Yue refused: "Don't even think about it, using the portal indiscriminately will lead to instability in the plane, and it will also lead the enemy to Longkong Mountain." If you want to die, use it. ”
Wang Ming sighed: "Although I don't understand, it seems to be very powerful......
Zi Ma opened a gap behind her and beckoned to everyone: "I'll go first." Come to see me in Twilight Mountain when you have time...... Xiaosha, hurry up, we're going back. ”
Marisa reluctantly walked over and followed Mama Purple through the gap.
Scarlet Moon turned to face the crowd. The waist-length crimson hair can cover three points on his body. With a snap of her fingers. A piece of red leather armor appeared on her, but large swaths of white skin were still exposed to the air.
"I'll take you to visit Xialongkong Mountain, right? It's a rare opportunity, it's not like you can come here if you want to. But keep up with the road, in case it won't be fun if it is used as breakfast by other dragons. ”
A pair of dragon wings spread out behind Crimson Moon, and their tails dragged out, motioning for everyone to grab on.
Wang Ming was not polite, and reached out and grabbed the dragon tail.
Tsukizakura stretched out her hand to stop him, lest he be swallowed by the temporal storm. The strangulated rattan ball disguised as a harmless hair ornament floated down the girl's head. Several tentacles grow. A few of them were wrapped around the tail of the Scarlet Moon, and the rest were wrapped around the waists of the people.
The crimson moon flapped its wings and soared into the air. The gravity on the ground disappeared the moment it left the doorway, and the gravityless floating sensation instantly gave people the illusion of free fall.
The wind mixed with the colorful elemental brilliance blew in front of him, and the crimson moon flapped its wings, widening the distance between it and the floating peak, and on the edge of the floating peak, another relatively small peak floated. The floating peak is like a peak cut from a high mountain, with a flat facet, and from this view, the peak is upside down, presenting the section that should be on the bottom to the public.
A complex of Gothic buildings was built on the flat face, with bell towers, watchtowers, and halls.
"This is the information area of Longkong Mountain, where all kinds of materials and technical documents are preserved, and it is said that there are photocopies of the Dead Sea scriptures on display in the past two days, so if you are interested, you can go and see them. ”
As soon as he heard the Dead Sea Scroll, Wang Ming's eyes lit up with a circle of golden light: "The Dead Sea Scroll is the thing that records the manufacturing method of the Aquila Warriors?
Scarlet Moon explained, "There's no Aquila Warrior, it's just a rumor. The Dead Sea Scriptures contain only the training methods of the Evangelists. ”
Wang Ming looked at the soul pillar on the other side that was made of countless brown solidified souls and asked, "Is that the Pillar of Dusk made by the legendary psychic 'Lelouch Britannia'?"
Scarlet Moon spread his hands and said, "That's right, it was made by the dead who traveled with the male phoenix to Brokeback Mountain, and it is said that you can get a psychic ability called 'gress' by staring at it for an hour without blinking...... To be precise, under the light of the base god, a bird grows in the eyes. ”
Wang Ming felt a chill: "It sounds really a murderous ability......
Scarlet Moon pointed to the architectural model on the table: "This is the complete form of the Tower of Babel, as long as it is built according to this plan, it can penetrate the space barrier and reach the heavenly realm." However, according to legend, once you build 10,000 feet high, every 10 feet you build will collapse nine feet, and when you climb to 20,000 feet, you will attract an archangel with pink wings armed with a bow and arrows to come down and destroy the Tower of Babel and the entire surrounding country. ”
Wang Ming wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Is this a building or a nuclear martial arts mark......
Crimson Moon pointed to a rune group that was installed on the arcane screen, and continued: "This is the creation rune group codenamed 'Angel Heartbeat', which can create zào or transform angelic creatures, and it is said that the research department has successfully reproduced a silver-haired angel Lori." ”
As soon as Yue Ying heard this, she hurriedly asked, "Is Lori out for rent? How much is a night? Can you play [Beep-] or [Beep--]?"
Scarlet Moon pretended not to hear it, turned her head and continued to introduce other products: "This book has the power to change reality. As long as you hold this book, you can have the information to receive the will of the world, because it was developed by the Suzumiya group in the spring, and the user must have compassion to really use it. That's why this thing is simply called 'the melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi'...... The name is curious enough, in fact, it's not bad to call it the samadhi line, which happens to be the name of the mascot of the development team. ”
Yu Huang pointed to an announcement on the side and said, "Since last month, the Lianggong group has been renamed the 'SOS' group. Alas, what a good name, I almost can't recognize it after I haven't come back for a few years...... Well, because the head of the regiment often carried out terrible reals, the members of the guide zhì issued SOS alerts more than a hundred times a day. So it was renamed the SOS Regiment - wasn't their former reality dangerous enough?"
Scarlet Moon explained: "It is said that the Suzumiya team in April this year was taken by the head of the group to study the working principle of magical girls, and then their first step was to capture ten magical girls...... That's not the point. The second step of the leader's plan is to capture the kingdom of the gods of the contract god Chube and capture its true form...... It is rumored that in order to restrain Chubby's infinite resurrection ability, the head of the regiment has developed a shield that can make time stand still or even turn back. Then I heard that they were ambushed by Chubbe on the way back, and that one of the old regiment members was killed. It's the beauty with the curly blond hair. The head was bitten off directly by Chubbe......"
Xinglian looked at the strange plant on the other side and asked, "What is this?
Scarlet Moon sighed: "I don't know what the guys in the spice group think, what they said to study how to feed wolves with apples, and as a result, a lot of apples were planted in Longkong Mountain, causing the price of apples to plummet." And that's not all, and I don't know how they did it, but those wolves were developed with a certain amount of intelligence, so researchers began to teach those wolves economics...... But that's not the most outrageous. The most outrageous thing is that the group of guys actually studied the use of wheat. The method of making the wolf bigger is that the wolf's size can swell several times after eating special wheat......"
Cang Yang pointed to the magic array that was constantly shining on the other side, even with her magic alchemy knowledge, it was difficult to discern the structure of this array.
Scarlet Moon has been completely reduced to a commentator: "This is the summoning beast conscription array, which can summon a projection of the body to fight for itself, but according to the number after research and development, the combat power of the summoned beast is inversely proportional to the master's IQ...... Hahaha, don't look at me like that, although I'm only in the top ten of the summoning beast combat power list hahaha......"
Torya looked curiously at the strange cup covered in hundreds of layers of shields: "Why do I think this thing looks familiar?"
Scarlet Moon looked at the sign and explained: "This is the Holy Grail that shines in the long night of fate, the Holy Grail with endless power! In history, there have been countless people who have waged meaningless wars for this cup, and those wars are collectively called 'Holy Grail Wars', well, it has been taught in the history books, right? No? You are sleeping in class! Have you never heard of the Infinite Sword System? Or not? What about King Arthur? King Arthur you always know!"
Tolia shook her head decisively, the black silk bow on her head and the tuft of hair swaying with her head.
At this moment, a handsome young man walked in briskly from outside the door, dressed in a servant's outfit and carrying a plate of drinks.
"Are you back, Lord Scarlet Moon? Would you like to try this bottle, I found it in Nesario's cellar. ”
Scarlet Moon took a few glasses of wine and handed them to the group, and the boy walked over to the other group of visitors with the rest of the wine.
"That young man is an unlucky guy who owes hundreds of thousands of dragon coins to Longkong Mountain, even worse than Wang Ming, he has to work here until he dies of old age. However, his work ability is still very strong, and his work speed is faster than that of a skilled worker, and he deserves the name of "Whirlwind Butler". ”
Wang Ming slowly counted the conversion of dragon coins and gold coins, and a palm-sized dragon flew over from the side.
"Lord Scarlet Moon, there's something wrong with the Demon Pet Research Area, please come over quickly!"
Crimson Moon caught the young dragon who almost hit the wall with both hands, and asked puzzledly, "What's wrong?"
"Scarlet ...... Scarlet Moon-sama, Sister Louise's summoning has failed, and her soul is trapped in the Sea of Souls!
Scarlet Moon comforted: "Don't worry, don't worry, let's hurry over and take a look." ”
In the Demon Pet Research Area, the girl named Louise, no, it should be said that she is still a little girl, is lying unconscious in the center of the summoning circle, her pink hair reflecting the faint glow of the summoning circle.
"What's wrong? What the hell is going on?" asked Crimson Moon to the researchers around her.
An old man with a white beard and hair and a white researcher costume replied, "Director Crimson Moon, Miss Louise was originally here to summon a demon pet today, but the detection results showed that Miss Louise can summon demons, so we arranged for her to summon demons." But I didn't expect that at the beginning of the summoning, Miss Louise showed that she was unwell, and after ten minutes, she fell into shock, and the summoning circle was still running, so ......"
Scarlet Moon took the researcher's words and said, "So it's surmised that Louise's soul is trapped in the soul sea, right?"
The researcher opened a screen in front of him: "In fact, we have calculated that Miss Louise's Angel Demon is the most dangerous Zero Demon Demon, and Miss may not be able to suppress this Demon Demon." But if she can't suppress it, Miss Louise will have to stay in the Sea of Souls forever......"
Several flames lit up in front of Scarlet Moon's eyes: "Go and get the tools ready." ”
The researcher was surprised, "Don't you ......?"
"I'll take this matter personally. ”
Zero Messenger Demon: The most difficult species to summon successfully among the summoned beasts, because the success rate of the conquest is close to 0%, so it is called the Zero Envoy Demon.
