I am God!

Chapter 346 Abyss King Selection Ceremony
Standing on the crowded street, Byron squeezed through the crowd to the front with his smaller figure.

Oncoming are groups of ground dragon knights, holding high the dark black banner.

The sun shone on their armor, making these knights seem to be glowing.

Today is the day when General Darkmoon returned victorious, and this general won another hearty victory as usual.

same as before.

He walked through the central street of the Royal Court with the victorious prizes and prisoners in a high-profile way, and greeted the cheers of the people.

But Byron seemed to dislike the general very much.

When he saw the figure raising the matte long sword, he hesitated for a moment, and suddenly shouted at the figure who currently held the highest authority in the kingdom amidst the waves of cheers.

"General!"

"What's the point of launching this war?"

"Hunger is everywhere outside the city, why not solve it?"

The people around looked at Byron in horror, and immediately distanced themselves from him.

But the louder cheers around him overwhelmed Byron's voice, and General Dark Moon walked directly through the avenue as if he didn't hear Byron's words.

It's just the sight under the helmet, inadvertently glanced at this bold boy.

The young man mustered up his courage and came here to question General Dark Moon, but he didn't expect that he would act like a clown without any response.

He was a little depressed, and perhaps also a little lucky.

In the end, he walked around outside in a daze, and didn't return home until it was getting dark.

Byron's family is a very ordinary family in the city. His father is a carpenter and his mother is a servant of a noble family.

He also has a brother and a sister.

This is a big family, and the family lives in an old wooden house; although life is poor, at least the family is together, which is quite stable.

A most ordinary family, most people in Pence City are like this.

As soon as he opened the door, the five-year-old girl sitting under the wooden ladder who was grasping stones immediately raised her head, pointed at him and shouted in a childish voice.

"Second brother is back!"

Byron immediately raised his finger: "Hush!"

"Don't shout."

Byron was away from home all day today, and his family knew that he would definitely give him a lesson when he came back.

In order to bribe his younger sister, he took out a few pure white smooth and delicate stones from his pocket and gave them to her, which were much better than the stones her sister used to play the game of catching stones.

The younger sister was very happy, holding the stone with one hand, her eyes seemed to be shining, and she kept nodding with her mouth tightly closed.

The other hand imitated his elder brother Byron: "Hush!"

Byron asked again: "Is daddy back?"

The younger sister pointed behind Byron, and when he turned around, he saw his father standing at the door.

As soon as Byron's face collapsed, he was pulled behind by his father.

Byron's father had scars on his face and one ear was missing, a cripple from a previous battle in the kingdom.

However, being able to save one life is already considered lucky, and several of my father's brothers all died in that war.

The chisel in his father's hand didn't even put down, he pointed at Byron angrily and asked him.

"what happened?"

"I heard that you went to the street to question General Dark Moon today?"

"Don't you want to live?"

"Why do you like to offend others so much?"

The four consecutive questionings are enough to reflect Byron's father's anxiety.

Byron didn't admit defeat one bit: "Because someone else did it wrong."

Father disliked Byron's stubbornness: "Everyone else is wrong, but you are right?"

Byron was also very stubborn: "What is right is right, and what is wrong is wrong. Is it difficult to distinguish?"

"Killing is wrong."

"Bullying others is wrong!"

"It's wrong to lie to people!"

"Do you still need to think about this kind of question?

"Why do you say that I offended others, because what they did was wrong, can't I still say it?"

His voice became louder: "The war launched by General Dark Moon is just killing people, it doesn't make any sense."

"They are killing people all day long, killing people and dissidents; they are fighting with other countries and their own people every year."

"These people have never thought about how to govern the country well, and they have never thought about thinking about it for everyone."

"So many people are starving to death outside, and everyone's life is getting more and more difficult. They don't know how to solve the problem, but they know how to squeeze us to start a war."

"Why can't I tell?"

Father was very angry, but his mouth was a little stupid, and he didn't know how to say Byron.

In the end, he could only say, "You!"

"Sooner or later, you will suffer a lot!"

Byron turned his head: "That can't change the right and wrong of this world."

His father slapped him on the back: "I don't want to argue with you, go in!"

"time to eat!"

The family sat on the wooden floor, around a long table, the evening sun had dimmed, and the room was even darker.

The food on the table was a lump of what looked like a paste, exuding an unpalatable smell, with a few wisps of stale rotten leaves in it.

But such things are already considered rich.

With so many people in the family, we can only eat two meals a day, let alone have enough to eat.

Generally, the father and eldest brother who are the main labor force are fed first, and then it is the turn of others.

Father, mother, elder brother and younger sister sat together. Although the conditions were not good, it was considered warm, and Byron sat beside his younger sister.

Seeing his younger sister still grasping the few stones he had given her under the table, Byron couldn't help pinching her face.

"Byron!" his mother called to him.

He took the bowl from his mother, and his mother gave him a scolding.

"Don't run around tomorrow, just help at home."

Byron: "Got it!"

The place where Byron's house is located is the west area of ​​Pence City.

in the dark.

In the western part of the city at this moment, a large number of unknown and mysterious figures are active.

And the center of their activities was Byron's home.

A few people in black cloaks came from the back door of Byron's house. The eyes under the cloaks looked into the room and saw Byron who was already sleeping soundly.

The young man had been aimlessly busy all day and was extremely tired.

Like most kids his age, he knows a lot and has heard a lot.

But the only thing is, I don't know what I really want.

He didn't even know what he was going to face next.

"Are you sure?" one of them asked.

Another person replied: "It has been confirmed for a long time, it must be him!"

The mental power was intertwined, and it was swept over and over again.

"It doesn't look like anything out of the ordinary?"

"The appearance is still outstanding, but what is this?"

"He is not tall, he is ordinary, and he can't find any characteristics. Why was he selected?"

It was hard for him to understand, at least from the perspective of a powerful person, this person was too ordinary.

Another said: "It's God's will."

That's the end of the story.

Yes, this is God's will.

The opponent is the son of wrath chosen by God himself.

They are only believers of gods, how can they know how the gods are chosen.

Perhaps God has seen the future, seen the predestined destiny.

In one sentence, everything has been explained.

The man nodded.

Then there is no need to think too much, just arrange everything that is prepared for the king of the abyss preliminary selection.

"Is the king selection ceremony ready?"

"The chief priest is coming tonight, and he will definitely ask about it then."

The people around did not dare to boast: "Such a huge ceremony, how can it be so fast; even if it is ready, it has to be checked again and again, I dare not say it is ready."

The screen is pulled up to the sky.

A large number of mysterious figures have set up a huge ritual array in the western part of the city. Hollow spars are arranged on the densely packed nodes, and they are placed in different places, waiting for people to activate them.

And in Byron's house, it is just in the center of this ritual array.

The boy sleeping soundly in the room, the back of his wooden bed is engraved with horrible and bloody patterns and runes.

That is the name of the God of Original Sin.

Also, the symbol representing the wrath of original sin.

under the moonlight.

He turned over and snored softly.

In his sweet dream, he beat a liar he caught earlier to the ground.

In his sweet dream, he questioned General Dark Moon righteously and won praise from everyone.

-

Royal court political hall.

The intelligence personnel under General Dark Moon sent all the collected information to General Dark Moon.

The actions of the Abyssal Order were very secretive, and they had already begun to make arrangements when General Dark Moon had not returned.

But once this kind of secretive action is exposed, there is no secret at all.

What General Dark Moon got was a portrait, and all the background of the person in the portrait. He habitually read the text first, and then the person in the portrait.

"Their target is this child?"

General Dark Moon looked at this portrait and felt that it looked familiar.

"It seems to have some impression!"

"Where have you seen it?"

suddenly.

He suddenly remembered.

He had seen this face on his triumphant return.

A picture popped up in my mind,

General Dark Moon stared at the paper, his eyes moved slightly: "It turned out to be that child!"

The glare of the sun through the helmet made the eyes a little dazed, and a child on the road stared at him and shouted at him.

What did he ask himself?
Oh, remembered.

he asked himself.

"General!"

"What's the point of launching this war?"

At that time, what came to my mind was not anger, but doubt and confusion.

Even a child is questioning himself, questioning the meaning of waging war.

"Yes!"

"what sense?"

"I've won another war, I've won a lot of wars, but have I really won anything?"

At this moment, General Dark Moon thought of this question again.

The plan that had been envisioned for a long time came to mind.

His hand holding the paper hangs down, looking down at the floor tiles in the hall.

in case.

If there is another war.

He hoped that all problems could be solved with one war.

"A truly meaningful war."

"A war that can solve all problems."

The curly-haired staff member on the side was the one who handed the information to General Dark Moon. Seeing that the general had finished thinking, he immediately asked.

"Should we start preparing to take all these people..."

However, General Dark Moon said something that surprised the curly-haired staff: "No, don't worry about them."

The staff was stunned, and he paused for a long time before continuing to ask.

"General!"

"Do nothing?"

General Dark Moon did not answer, but talked about another matter with this confidant.

"Just this morning, it was confirmed."

"Several lords in the south are preparing to leave the kingdom. They have betrayed their ancestors and beliefs. They want to become kings!"

"The name of a king makes them forget everything."

"but!"

"That is the most affluent place in the royal court, and it also controls the mouth of the Shepherd's River."

"We must not lose it."

When General Dark Moon said this, he couldn't hold back his emotions.

"you say!"

"How many more people do we have to die to save this country."

"How many more battles do we need to fight to stabilize this country, complete our restructuring, and create the kingdom we want."

General Dark Moon talked about the status quo and the difficulties they faced.

"Will these people wait for us to complete the restructuring?"

"Can we still afford to fight?"

"Next time, how many people will really be willing to follow us?"

"People in the royal court are tired of war. There are fewer and fewer people supporting us, while our enemies are getting stronger and stronger."

"There are so many who want to take us down from running this country, so many who sit and wait for us to fall apart and gnaw off a piece of this country's carcass."

Dark Moon looked at the staff, that look made the staff feel a little scary.

"If there is a way, a lot of people can be killed."

"Would you choose this method?"

The staff fell silent.

He instinctively felt that General Dark Moon was planning something terrible,

Moreover, it is likely to be related to the matter planned by the Abyss Religion this time.

-

The secret room of the prayer hall in the western part of the city.

The old man in a black cloak bowed his waist, facing the statue of the God of Original Sin.

"are you ready?"

A fallen priest looked at each other and replied.

"Everything has been arranged."

"The king selection ceremony is ready."

"The budget is over, and the offerings are enough."

"The son of wrath is also in place."

The old man nodded: "Then, let's meet God's will!"

The high priest, who was as old as a monster, had to rely on a cane when he walked, and had to be supported by someone when he walked a little farther.

But he came under the idol and prostrated himself on the ground.

The situation is different.

Under the altar, groups of black mud gushed out.

As a group of strange black mud poured into his body, it looked horrible and disgusting, but his dry and foul-smelling body became fuller little by little.

The originally stooped body became tall and straight.

He unexpectedly became younger temporarily, not the same person as before.

The high priest looked back, and at this time he felt completely different. All the fallen priests involuntarily lowered their heads, not daring to meet his gaze.

As soon as he turned around, he turned into a black shadow.

rushed out of the prayer hall.

The other fallen priests immediately chased them out, each casting their magic spells to follow the target location.

The black shadow quickly swept across the street, across the top of the house, and finally appeared on the tallest clock tower in the west of the city.

And other fallen priests have also arrived at other nodes.

The acting Archbishop of the Abyss Order stared into the distance, watching the Abyss Sacrifice Ceremony that could be started at any time, and finally his eyes fell on the center of the ceremony.

With a maniacal grin on his face, he opened his mouth.

"The new king of original sin."

"Your throne is ready for you."

"Let me push you to the throne with my own hands."

the other side.

Byron was at home early in the morning helping with housework and mopping the floor.

Then I have to repair the house, pack things, and take care of my sister.

Father and elder brother took over a job and wanted to go out to do errands; father went out first, but elder brother came to Byron's side.

He patted the shoulder of Byron who was wiping the floor, and said to him.

"Don't run around today, stay at home."

"Look at mother and little sister carefully, you know!"

Byron was a little impatient. Young people hate being controlled by others.

"Know it!"

"When you come back, I'm sure I'll get things done."

The eldest brother shook his head: "You can't run around after you finish your work. You can always see some strange people nearby."

"I also saw a few days ago that Wang Ting's search team is investigating these people, saying that they are investigating several disappearance cases, but there is no result yet."

"I don't know if these people did it, but it's quite disturbing."

Byron nodded and said something.

"Those in the search team, what else can they do besides extortion?"

The eldest brother also knew Byron's temper, so he left with his father without saying anything.

But not long after the eldest brother and father left, the mother suddenly found a toolbox in the corner.

"Your father and elder brother don't know who they are, and they forgot to bring the suitcase again."

"Byron!"

"Hurry up and send them there."

Byron put down his brush and looked at the box.

"It's Big Brother's!"

He got up and wiped his hands, then went down and straddled the box on his body.

He stood at the door and greeted his mother and sister.

His mother told him: "Don't dawdle on the road, come back quickly."

Byron: "Understood, I will send it over and come back."

After speaking, Byron pushed the door away.

He didn't know how many eyes were staring at him at this moment.

And when he moved, everything followed him.

Lines of sight that watched him from a distance collided with each other at this moment.

"How to do?"

"Start early."

"Just at the approximate reserved location."

There are many people on the street, pedestrians, vendors, and shoppers.

Everyone was busy with their own affairs, and there were many beggars in the corner, begging for food from passers-by.

Byron walked forward unhurriedly, the place where his father worked was not far from home.

He still thought in his heart that maybe he would run into the big brother who came back to pick up the box on the way.

At that time, how should I laugh at him, pretending to be mature and teaching myself in the morning, but in the end, he himself is also a daredevil.

"Teach me all day, this time it's my turn to talk about you."

suddenly.

A gust of wind blows.

The people on the street immediately backed away, and everyone didn't know why such a strange wind suddenly blew up.

Even the pack beasts were neighing, as if they sensed something bad.

Byron raised his hand to cover his eyes, looking into the distance from the corner of his eye.

He vaguely saw a ray of light rising into the sky, connecting to the sky.

After the wind subsided, everyone wondered where such a strange wind came from.

Then, someone yelled.

"Look at the sky!"

Everyone on the street raised their heads and looked towards the sky.

I saw that the clouds in the sky seemed to be attracted by something, forming a weird vortex.

And, it was spinning at an unusual speed.

In addition to this, red silk threads criss-crossed in the sky, forming a huge ritual array.

The ritual array is a program used to communicate with other existences, it can be the spirit world, it can be gods, it can also be some powerful props, or other existences in the spirit world.

And this ritual array.

It leads to the abyss.

Byron's head was buzzing and his eyes were wide open.

"Character?"

"How do words shine?"

"How can there be words shining in the sky?"

There was no sound on the street, and no one uttered a word for a long time.

Byron moved his eyes along the huge ritual array, and finally noticed the center of the sea of ​​clouds.

A beam of light penetrates the sea of ​​clouds, connects everything, and is the core of everything.

He just saw it.

The direction of the beam of light is obviously the direction of his own home.

"what happened?"

"Why is there light in my house?"

"What happened?"

Byron is just the son of a commoner, he has never even seen supernatural power, where has he seen such a scene.

He froze and didn't move for a long time.

And at this time, something terrible happened.

The beam of light connected to the sea of ​​clouds, and a door slowly opened in the swirling sea of ​​clouds, a door leading to another world.

Behind the door is the dark side of Wanling.

At this moment it is pouring its filth into the world, bringing disaster to the world.

In the terrified eyes of everyone, the clouds in the sky turned red.

The whole sky seemed to be lit up.

And a not-so-big meteorite slowly fell from the door, but the terrifying coercion emanating from the meteorite overwhelmed the entire city of Pans, unable to raise their heads.

Around the meteorite, a large amount of flowing fire fell from the sky.

Fall into the world.

The terrifying stream of fire streaked across the sky, heading towards their direction, the western part of the city where they were located.

Everyone was scared out of their wits by this scene, until someone yelled hoarsely.

"Run!"

The originally noisy but orderly streets were swallowed up by chaos in an instant.

Everyone is like ants who have lost their minds, scurrying around on the ground, accompanied by sounds one after another.

"My God, what the hell is that?"

"Fire, the sky is burning red."

"Hide quickly, find a place to hide quickly."

Byron also reacted from the shock.

Looking at the pillars of light that soared into the sky, streamers of light fell towards the earth one after another.

He suddenly rushed like crazy and rushed towards his own home.

Halfway through, he turned a corner.

He threw the box he was straddling on the ground.

He was in a hurry, and he was accelerating at full speed.

Because he saw his home, the beam of light came from his home.

He saw more.

A stream of fire fell into the sky in the sky.

And the target of the flowing fire was his own home.

Byron's pupils swelled to the extreme in an instant, and his complexion turned pale.

With the loudest voice he could make, he shouted hoarsely towards the front.

Calling his mother, and his sister.

"Mother!"

"Saline!"

"Leave now!"

"Come out quickly, get out of the house quickly."

He felt it, he seemed to hear the voice, the mother inside the house should have sensed the situation outside.

Byron looked expectantly at the door of the house.

Finally, someone appeared at the door.

Byron watched as it was pushed away, and a figure emerged from behind.

A look of ecstasy appeared on Byron's face.

"Mother!"

"Saline!"

The mother pushed the door open with her sister in her arms and rushed out.

But it was too late at this time, the stream of fire streaked across the sky, and had already hit Byron's home.

"Boom!"

The flame spread instantly, engulfing tens of hundreds of meters around.

Everything was ignited in an instant, and the temperature nearby rose to an unbearable level for ordinary people.

But all of this had nothing to do with Byron, he felt as if he was instantly ignited, and the flame burst out from his chest and rushed to the top of his skull.

The scalp burst open.

He saw with his own eyes that his home collapsed, his mother and sister were engulfed in flames and disappeared in a sea of ​​red.

The last appearance of his mother in his eyes was the expression of looking up at him rushing over.

The last gaze was one that Byron could not understand.

before the fire.

Byron stopped, holding his head.

"No!"

"do not want!"

In the end, he made a sound that almost ripped his throat.

"No!"

Byron looked at the house that had turned into a sea of ​​flames, his whole body trembling.

Byron grabbed his hair vigorously, but apart from trembling, he couldn't make any movements.

Finally, he walked forward.

A little closer to the sea of ​​flames, closer to the collapsed burning house.

suddenly.

There was movement in the sea of ​​fire.

Byron stared blankly, as if expecting something.

However, no miracle happened.

what he saw.

It was the scariest nightmare he had ever seen in his life.

A body engulfed by flames, a scorched black corpse stood up from the flames.

On the scorched skin, there were flame patterns flowing from the cracked places, and extraordinary power spread from the body, telling the world that this is an extraordinary living body.

In its direction, the flames become extraordinarily active, and all flames turn with its realization.

His mother turned into a flame monster, which was occupied by the monster of the abyss.

The famous Burning Heart Demon in the abyss is a monster that can seize other people's bodies and control their consciousness.

The scorched black body hugged another child's body, staggered and moved in the flames, and looked around blankly.

Finally, his eyes fixed on Byron.

She made a sound.

"what!"

"It hurts, it hurts!"

"Byron...it hurts so much!"

"The fire is burning...it is burning me..."

"It really hurts."

"Byron...Byron...help me...bye..."

The soaring fire dyed Byron's eyes red.

I don't know if it is the reflection of the fire or the filling of blood.

"what!"

He rushed to his home desperately and threw himself into the fire.

And this time.

The meteorite in the sky also fell on the earth.

The powerful impact destroyed the buildings on the ground in pieces, the smoke and dust rose high, and the terrifying flame seemed to ignite the entire western part of the city.

And Byron was thrown out like a rag, completely losing consciousness.
