Oreas was silent for a while, "Yes."

Abner's tears suddenly pooled in his eyes, "I hate you."

Oreas rubbed his head, "At that time, I went to Death Island to pick you up, your father and Wen Si were both present, and your father handed you over to me, he would not know me, but that day you My father did not recognize me, so I became suspicious, so I deliberately said that you and I were in Chilong City, and he continued to make up the words, and I knew that it must be someone pretending to be someone close to your father. That paragraph Time, I tried to find your father's body, but I couldn't find it."

Abner's tears rolled down, and Aureas hugged him, and he buried himself in Aureas's chest, sobbing softly.

"Father handed me over to you at that time... did father say anything?" Abner choked.

"He said, you like sweets, you like raising birds, you like to sneak out to play, you don't like living in castles, and when you grow up, you need to eat more spinach."

Abner laughed through his tears, and Oreas stroked the back of his head.

Chidori Wharf has not been so lively for a long time. Three large ships and dozens of small boats docked on the shore one after another. They came from Blue Spring City and stepped on the spacious wooden board.

There were already guards waiting for those foreigners to lead them to their new residence.

Abner and Aureas stood by the side of the road, seeing that the faces of those people couldn't hide their excitement. The girl who was left behind for her lover had already embraced and kissed the knight.

These people don't even understand the language, but they seem to be looking forward to the future.

The flow of people was like a tide, they could never go back, and the four clans lost many souls.

"Why did you agree with them to stay? Isn't this a heavy loss for the four clans?" Abner asked.

"They are willing to give up even their eternal souls. There is nothing they can't give up. They stay in the four clans, and they will find a way to leave sooner or later." Aureas paused, staring at the kissing couple, "No matter what at all costs."

Abner shuddered.

After the people on the pier dispersed, Abner returned to Duolun Palace, just now a guard brought him the news: His Highness wanted to see him.

Sean was waiting for him in the study with a serious expression, "Abner, I heard that there are a large number of people from the four tribes who are unwilling to go back. I will send people to let them live near the outskirts of the city. What does Aureas think about this?"

Abner raised his eyebrows, "My lords, Aurelias didn't stop them at all, and they did what they wanted, but it will be hard for you. They don't even know the language, and they will live in Shikoku from now on. .Of course, if you don't want to accept them, I'll have to figure out a way to bury them all."

"Buried?"

"They already have attachments in their hearts, and they will not be reconciled when they go back. Oreas has closed the passage, and no one can walk back and forth."

Sean sat on the high chair and tapped his fingers on the armrest, looking hesitant. After a while, he said slowly, "Let them stay in Shikoku."

Abner laughed softly, "Look at you pretending, isn't this what you want?"

Sean was taken aback, seeing Abner bypassing the chair and sitting on the desk in front of him, like a light and proud bird.

Abner knocked on his forehead, and said: "You made up your mind when discussing with Wens, but this is just right, the four countries suffered heavy casualties after the war, and with so many people here, they can prosper a lot. "

"Why..." Sean was startled.

"Don't forget that I have been climbing trees with you since I was ten years old. What are you thinking, I still don't know?"

Sean lowered his head slightly, "I'm sorry, Abner, I was afraid that you would disagree with this matter, so I didn't tell you..."

"My lords," Abner interrupted Sean, "we are good brothers, aren't we?"

Sean shook Abner's hand and nodded solemnly.

"Of course, what makes me sure of your thinking is that Wen Si actually brought so many coins and is so generous..."

Sean: "..."

Abner clicked his lips, "This is definitely not normal."

Sean: "..."

The two looked at each other and smiled, hugging each other.

Sean was already taller than Abner, and his chest contained everything about Abner.

"You will come back." Sean said.

Abner didn't speak.

"In Duolun Palace, I will reserve a room for you, and you will come to see me occasionally."

"Ah."

The two let go again.

Sean pressed Abner's shoulder and said: "The Tongtian Tower has been completed, and we will go to Chilong City to sacrifice in two days. This will be the most grand event in hundreds of years. You must wait until the sacrifice is completed before leaving !"

"My lords, it is natural."

"At that time, I will invite these new people to participate in the sacrifice. For them, this is a new belief. I hope it can end smoothly."

Abner frowned. The red dragon believed by the Four Kingdoms seemed to be spurned by the four tribes. He was faintly worried, but he still patted Sean on the shoulder, "Bless the kings, everything will go well!"

Tongtian Pagoda, a tall tower built to worship Chilong, is located in the center of Chilong City. It is conical and pierces into the sky. From a distance, there are small openings all over the tower, extending upward like a spiral. It is a gate , supported by tall pillars.

The weather was cold, and the Tongtian Tower was crowded with people. Everyone was wearing red coats, pouring in through the gate, like a large group of burning flames.

Abner and Oreas entered through a secret passage, and Sean had already prepared an excellent viewing position for them, and sent someone to take them to the viewing entrance.

When they entered the room, they saw the new Chief Priest of the Fire Spirit, dressed in red, standing at the entrance of the stands, bowing slightly to them.

"You two adults, please stay here and don't walk around casually. People from the four countries are all gathered here, and there are many people and things to do." The wrinkles on the chief priest's face were twisted together, making it difficult to see the expression.

It was the first time for Abner to meet the new chief priest, and he thought he was very weird, so he didn't want to talk much, just nodded.

"Then let's go first," the chief priest passed Abner, paused, turned around, glanced at Aureas, and said, "Because there are Protestants this time, I'm afraid there are some trivial matters." It needs to be dealt with, I heard that they are the subjects of the adults, please send a capable attendant to take care of them."

"Someone is taking care of you below," Oreas said.

The head priest nodded, "My lords, who do you want to ask?"

Oreas stared at the chief priest for a while, and said slowly: "In the hall, a young man with blond hair in a white robe."

The head priest's eyes moved, "That spirited young man, I've noticed him a long time ago, what's his name?"

"Ofland."

"He's a good boy..." the chief priest muttered and walked out.

"If only the kid could stay here."

The voice of the chief priest still remained in the room, and Abner felt tingling when he heard it, and turned around, but the person had disappeared.

"Why does this old man make people panic, is Ou Fuliang taking care of him down there?" Abner asked.

Oreas rubbed his head, "It's okay."

Abner stood at the window, looking down, a mass of fiery red was agitating, and the noise made the walls tremble slightly.He raised his head and glanced at the gorgeous stand. Next to the tall chairs was a huge grotto, inside which was carved a red dragon, whose lifelike eyes seemed to be staring at them.

He frowned, vaguely uneasy.

Suddenly, there were a few piercing screams amid the noise, followed by the sound of "ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping-pong."

Abner quickly looked down, and saw that some of the crowd was in a mess, and the scene was getting more and more out of control.

"We have to go and see!" Abner jumped off the stands.

Suddenly the door of the stand was hastily opened, Ou Fuliang's face was pale, and he said anxiously: "My lord, there are people who don't want to convert to Chilong, and they are madly shouting to go back underneath!"

Oreas frowned, and hurried out. Abner chased after him, and was reminded by Oufuliang kindly, "My lord, it's dangerous there, you should stay here."

Oreas rubbed his head and said, "You stay here, don't walk around until I come back."

Abner was a little disappointed, but still nodded, watching the figures of Aureas and O'Frien disappear at the end of the corridor, he sat back in the stands, and looked down for Aureas' figure.

"Hee hee hee hee hee hee……"

Suddenly a burst of sharp laughter sounded in the room, he trembled, turned around, and saw no one, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, turned back again, and saw a ball of flames quickly passing by the edge of the stand, burning blazingly, Seal the entire grandstand.

The flames were scorching hot and dazzling, and he had no idea what was going on below.

"Hee hee hee hee hee..."

There was another sharp laugh, and he turned his head vigilantly, only to see a pair of wings growing from behind the red dragon statue next to him.

His breathing was stagnant, his mind was buzzing, he jumped off the stands and ran towards the door.

The moment he lifted his foot, flames burned all the way along the edge of the wall, and soon the fire sealed the door. He looked around anxiously, and the entire room was surrounded by fire.

The cannibal angel stepped out from behind the statue, laughing wantonly, its huge wings flapping as it walked.

Abner rested one hand on Higurashi, and clenched his other into a fist.

"You cunning domestic animal." The angel raised his chin and said proudly.

Abner chuckled lightly, and said, "You are a defective product abandoned by God."

The angel's pale face was gray with anger, he opened his mouth and rushed towards Abner.

Abner quickly took a few steps back, and when the angel was about to catch him, he quickly dodged, and the angel plunged headlong into the fire.

Abner breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he could get rid of him, but he saw him stand up slowly from the fire, without any feathers on his body being injured.

"Hahahahahahaha... Do you think I don't know what you're thinking?" The angel fished his hand out of the fire, a ball of flames burning in his palm, "This is my father's fire, it can't hurt me .”

Abner frowned, his palms were sweating, "Your father?"

"My father is..."

"Baby, how many times have I told you, don't just play with the fire."

A strange yet familiar voice came from behind Abner.

"Isn't this Young Master Apocassari from Silver Bow City?"

The sound of footsteps approaching slowly, Abner suddenly drew his sword and turned around, only to see that weird fire spirit priest walking from the fire, the red cloak blending with the fire.
