Under the Root

Chapter 42 Julu, Black Eyes

"Emperor History" records that the first emperor divided the world into Kyushu, including Jizhou, which ranked first in Kyushu.And there is a county in Jizhou, because of its many mountains and forests, it was named Julu (the deer is also the largest forest).

In the past 900 years, Julu has been unknown. Obviously, it is neither an important military town nor a prosperous place. It does not deserve too much attention from the big figures in the court.

But this situation has quietly changed in the past 100 years.Because a religion called Anning Road chose to take root here, turning it into a religious holy place.

"As expected of Julu, the religious atmosphere is so strong." Wrapped in civilian clothes that can no longer be civilians, Sai Liu, the imperial guard, looked around curiously in the middle and east of Julu's market. The religious personnel with white scarves on their heads, The low-level believers holding the cross.In the eyes of Sai Liu, who has never been out of the imperial capital, all this is quite novel and interesting.

"It's just a fool who believes in things that don't exist. There is nothing worth paying attention to." Next to Sai Liu, the young girl with short black hair glanced at her in distress, then grabbed the special biscuits in the bag, and tweeted like a little squirrel Chewed up.

"That's because you have seen a lot. It's not like I can only stay in the imperial capital all day long to deal with small thieves. Ah, although it feels good to help ordinary people, but I also envy you gang of imperial assassination troops. It's so cool to punish evil and promote good in the dark."

But obviously, someone's distressed gaze was completely undetected by the brain of "Justice", and Sai Liu still held his face with a longing expression.

.......

The girl was helpless.As much as she liked idiots, that was when they were rivals, not as teammates.

But simply, the only idiot is her teammate.

"Captain, what do you think?"

"I think religious personnel are troublesome."

"Huh?" The girl tilted her head in doubt.

"When fighting, their morale is very high, and their desperate charge sometimes breaks through the army's battle formation." The girl's captain commented on the religious staff, and then she added something after seeing the girl's puzzled expression. "Different from assassination, the pig's sudden tactics in war sometimes work quite well."

"Oh, that's it." The girl nodded. "As expected of the captain, he is really well-informed. Before becoming a special force, he must have stayed in the Imperial Army."

"Perhaps." The captain shook his blue hair and walked straight to the center of the county.

"The old world is about to be destroyed."

"A new world is about to be born."

"Only the merciful gods can save us."

"Pray, believers. Prostrate, believers."

"The purest believer will be eligible to board the ark."

"After the end, we will usher in a new life."

In the center of Julu County, a priest wearing a white scarf waved the religious emblem in his hand.Shouting on the high platform covered with flowers.

And behind him, there are several knights in full armor and a long line of Anning Dao believers.

There are constantly white lights shining from the knight's hands, first illuminating the believers' bodies transparently, and then dimming them in an instant.

At this time, there are always pious believers who hang their heads sadly. They know that the dimmed light means that they have not been chosen by the gods.Not looked down upon by the gods.

But there are exceptions to everything, maybe there is one in a thousand, maybe there is one in a thousand.

There are always some lucky people whose light does not dissipate when the light shines, but are lucky enough to keep the light on them. At this time, ordinary believers look at them with envious eyes, because they know these things The lucky ones will be chosen by the gods and go to the paradise of the gods—Camero.

Although the handling method seems a bit unfair, in fact, the believers have no objection.Because this selection does not rely on money or status in this world, but on the pure hearts of believers.

They have seen wealthy businessmen rejected by Anning Road, and old people who are dying are shrouded in holy light.

Under the gods, all living beings are equal.

Originally, it was just an ordinary slogan of An Ningdao, but at this moment, it was turned into reality by them.

Even officials and gentlemen are treated equally, so what can I complain about? The believers thought of this, and then their trust in An Ningdao deepened in their hearts.

However, this is only for believers.

"How do you feel, Li Lin?" Estes murmured in his heart while hiding in the darkness under the high platform with his two subordinates. "Is there a feeling of pre-apocalyptic madness?"

"Quite thick. Frantic, desperate, just like crazy." Attached to Esdesh's body, Li Lin said in a dignified voice.

"Yeah, the weak are weak after all. They don't even have the idea of ​​relying on themselves. It's completely different from you." Esdeth said with a chuckle.She can temporarily obey Li Lin because he defeated her in a sense, and the winner should have the power to deal with the loser.But those believers are different. They obey the way of tranquility only because of an illusory promise, and it is simply foolish to entrust their fate to others for this illusory promise.

"But I'm curious, who can have such a big show, just those knights, each of whom has strength beyond my previous subordinates. Is the strongest empire so worthless? You alone, he alone, a rare one in a hundred years The characters I saw popped up one by one."

"You don't need to think about this, Estes." Li Lin interrupted Estes' thinking. "You just need to complete the task beautifully."

"I know, I know. Master slave owner. I will complete the task and bring you the Anning Taoist leader in a beautiful way." Esdes pressed the mask on his face to prevent his savage smile from being caught by anyone. people notice. "It's just another matter whether it's alive or dead at that time."

.......

Li Lin said nothing.

"By the way, I haven't thanked you yet, but I have two Tegushi's subordinates for my polished commander. The other one is the trump card of the empire's assassination force. Black pupil, that's the name."

Gazing at the ace of the assassination force hiding in the darkness and the girl with long black hair and black pupils hidden by the high platform, Estes smiled even brighter.

"Even under the tragic fate of the separation of the sisters, I still survived. It is very, very dazzling. Sure enough, the world needs such dazzling guys to make it look more beautiful. I think it is quite good if this woman, Li Lin, reproduces for you. .What do you think."

.......

This time, not only did they not say a word, even the link between their hearts was unilaterally cut off.

Estes raised an eyebrow at this.
