"Ding dong!"

[Acquisition of S-level temporary mission: follow Sherrod to achieve the best ending (point rewards are given according to the degree of mission completion)]

[Mission description: Lele's grandma Galde disappeared in the evening, and the knight of light, Sherrod, seems to know the hidden information, please follow him to witness the ending. 】

……

Dark night.

The row of bungalow buildings slept quietly in the night, and the blond knight walked through the silent night to a small boat docked by the river.

On the boat, an oil lamp was hung outside the cabin, and the surroundings seemed very quiet. An old lady wearing a fisherman's hat was sitting in the cabin.

Su Mingan looked in and met the eyes of the old lady.

"...Young man?" The old lady was stunned, as if she didn't expect to see him at this time.

Su Mingan took out the photo from her backpack and stuffed it in her hand.

"I regret it." He said, "This thing should be delivered in the daytime tomorrow. You can deliver it yourself."

The photo was forced into the old lady's hand, she was stunned for a moment, and then she wanted to grab his hand and give him the photo.

Su Mingan got up directly and walked to the front of the boat.

In the darkness of night, the moonlight reflected on the lake, and the boats cut through the moon shadow like a milky white lotus.

Sherud was paddling the boat quietly, his saber was lying on the side of the boat, and the moonlight was plated with a soft silver edge.

"Shelude." Su Ming'an's voice came from behind: "Explain why a commoner in Gard would go out at night, and why did you deliberately dismiss me?"

Sherrod remained silent.

The sound of water rushing, he shook the oar in his hand, looking straight ahead.

"Don't answer? Then I'll tell you." Su Mingan sat down beside him: "...you will secretly send her away at night and let her leave Praia."

Facing his words, Sheldore smiled wryly.

"I can't hide it from the captain." He said softly.

The moonlight shines on the quiet river surface, and the water surface seems to be connected to the sky.

In the silence of the night, Sherud, whose body was covered with moonlight, spoke softly:
"...The captain." He said, "Would you like to be my accomplice?"

Su Ming'an: "Because Galde is the child of the soul clan and human beings—there is finally no room for her in Soul Hunting, is it?"

Sheld was silent for a moment.

"arrive."

At this moment, the boat stopped suddenly.

Su Mingan raised his head and saw a river mouth in front of him.

Sheldore helped the old lady get off the boat.

"Grandma Gard." Sheld said to her, "Go straight along this street, and there is a merchant ship that plans to leave tomorrow morning. The destination of the merchant ship is the Hytel Empire. The ethos of old love and young love, you will live well in the past."

As he spoke, he stuffed a ticket into her hand.

The old lady clenched the ferry ticket tightly.

"Sheroude...thank you," she said softly.

"You saved me. If it wasn't for you, I would have froze to death that winter. The reward is due." Sherud said in a deep voice, "Get on the boat and get out of here. Since Soulhunter has decided to release the second This cleaning task... I will not let you go, leaving is the only way out."

The old lady held out her hand.

Following her slow movements, Sherud leaned over slightly.

Her calloused, thin-skinned hands gently caressed Sherud's blond hair with extremely gentle movements.

The moonlight sprinkled on her hands, blending with the brilliant blond hair. Her hand touched the hair gently, and then moved to his forehead, as if stirring the mottled moonlight.

This is Praia's blessing ceremony.

"Shelude, good boy." She rubbed her lips: "...you are the most competent knight of light I have ever seen."

She withdrew her hand, and the soft moonlight swayed in her eyes.

"My sincere wishes to you." Sherwood kissed the back of her hand: "I wish you a smooth journey."

After saying goodbye, the old lady turned around.

When she turned around, she glanced at Su Ming'an with an extremely complicated look, tracing his face carefully, as if she was missing something.

After that, she didn't say anything.Just clutching the ticket and the family portrait, and carrying the light luggage from the cabin, tremblingly walked into the darkness of the street.

Sheld watched her board the merchant ship before turning her gaze back.He wants to take the initiative to go to the church on the cloud, he let Galder go, so he has to accept punishment.

With the paddling of the water, the boat slowly arrived at the Church on the Cloud.

Xie Lude took the initiative to enter, he said that outsiders could not enter Yunshang Church at night, and asked Su Mingan to wait at the door.

It just so happened that Su Mingan didn't want to run around in the church, so as not to encounter the Pope who asked God to come to him.

He waited at the door of a building similar to a side hall, waiting for the fire to light up at night.

Leaning against the wall, he suddenly felt his eyelids twitch.The rich night can easily make people feel sleepy.He braced himself and began to watch the barrage.The most recent topics in the barrage seem to be Christmas Eve and Christmas.

[Today is December 2023, 12, and after tonight it will be the 22rd. 】

[Yeah, I just found out that Christmas is almost here... Brothers, I never thought that I would spend this year's Christmas here, it's a magical reality. 】

[This is a festive day, the world of the Lord God must snow!Snow is a good omen!]

[In the past few days, people have been setting up Christmas trees and lanterns one after another. I think there are some Christmas activities on the road.It is still the usual business discount routine. 】

【... Poor guys in those dungeons, it seems that they can only spend their holidays in fighting. 】

【Haha, so there are disadvantages to downloading a dungeon. I can’t even pass Christmas Eve. Poor...】

[I don't know if the organizer will have activities. I heard that ordinary games have welfare activities during this special festival. 】

The barrage was lively and festive, and the cold night in Praia seemed to have nothing to do with them.

Su Mingan yawned, squinted his eyes and sat for a while.

Leaning against the wall, he opened and closed the items in the backpack one by one, forcing himself not to fall asleep in this way.After about half an hour of this time, he suddenly saw a bright light.

... No, that's not just light.

He looked up and saw a bright red color.This gorgeous color danced wildly, as if it was going to dye the dark sky red.

That is fire.

He stood up abruptly and looked behind the building.

The flames seemed to come from the back of the church, the white moonlight was covered by the flames, and the sky was as bright as day.

……coming.

Su Mingan immediately rushed in that direction, ran to the burning building, and slammed open the heavy door.

"rumble--"

The carved gates are moved to the sides.

Su Mingan saw the burning flames in the hall.

But it wasn't because of some unexpected circumstance that it caught fire.

. . . for that is the flame that burns from man.

At least a hundred foreign tourists wearing different clothes and pale skin stood in this hall, with gorgeous flames burning on their bodies.

Their faces were completely scorched, the flesh and blood on their bodies were scorched and blackened, their bones slowly appeared, and their figures began to gradually blur in the fire... But the scary thing is that they were silent from the beginning to the end, as if they could not feel the burning of the flames pain.

And in the direction they were looking at, in the center of the church, a young man in a blood-red bishop's uniform stood there quietly.

In the bright light, he was at the very core of the light, as if a god had fallen from the sky and was about to reach out to the believers in the flames.

... What Su Mingan saw was this weird scene.

"Hey." Seeing the door open, the girl with ponytails carrying a big gun raised her eyelids: "Why is someone here? Boris, didn't you say that you have transferred all the people here?"

Several people were a little nervous, and Pei Xue quickly raised the staff in his hand: "It is estimated that there are players running around, just kill them. Boris is burning this group of npcs to gather strength, and we cannot interrupt his ceremony."

"Wait a minute, I think this player looks familiar..." Alex, the bald man, rubbed his sleepy eyes.

Ahead, Boris walked down the steps slowly with a smile on his face.

The red robe was dragged behind him, and he was holding a golden scepter in his hand, smiling gracefully surrounded by light.

"Coincidentally..." He whispered, "I actually met you here... the first player."

When he said this, the players who were staggering on the ground straightened up in an instant.

They picked up their weapons and swept away lazily, as if they were facing a big enemy.

With vigilant eyes, Su Mingan approached slowly.

"Stay away," Burris said.

Su Mingan kept walking.

"Don't get close—the first player." Burris said loudly: "I don't want to be your enemy for the time being. We will compete after the feast at sea. I have heard your response to my story, so I And for today's meeting, I have prepared a new story for you from my hometown—"

When he was only some distance away from the group of burning people, Su Mingan stopped in his tracks:
"Are we familiar?"
