Dwarves are called dwarves because they are obviously much shorter than humans. Adult dwarves are usually no more than 1.4 meters tall, but they have tough bones and a strong body.Men of the dwarves have thick beards, and women's beards are relatively sparse, so it is easy for humans to recognize female dwarves as men, just as dwarves often recognize elf men as women.

The lifespan of the dwarves is about 150 years. They have always been famous for their mining and forging techniques, so that their image is always associated with mining and blacksmithing. Some people even think that dwarves can live by eating stones. In fact, dwarves and humans They also need to graze and plant on the ground for a living. They eat meat, grains and plant tubers as their staple food. Caves are only their shelters. Only the gray dwarves, a close relative of the dwarves, can fully adapt to the dark underground life. -- "Feno Continental Encyclopedia · Humanoid Creatures"

Avondel's fever did not go down the next day, but he still managed to attend the meeting.

There is no doubt about the importance of this meeting. The kings of many surrounding countries have come in person. Even if the king cannot come, the envoys sent are all important figures in the country. In addition, there are churches, mage associations and other important organizations. People, in such a group of people, Avondel looks very young in appearance, and he does not have any official status. He is not even an official member of the Mage Association, but no one will doubt the qualifications of this mage to participate in the meeting.

The elves' emissary, Kenathes, also attended the meeting on behalf of the elves. This was the first time that the elves had formal contact with humans since the War of Religion more than 500 years ago.

A few months ago, Evandel was still trying to persuade the elf king Arlande to send troops to attack the holy city of Mikalan. A few months later, he wrote to persuade the elves to let go of their prejudices and jointly deal with the immediate crisis. The elf king also gave affirmative Reply, Arlande is a mature and stable monarch, in the face of a real survival crisis, there is no hatred that cannot be put aside.

The Pope first explained the information they had to everyone in detail. Of course, he didn't mention a single word of the church's public preaching of "you are not devout enough, so the sun god withdrew her grace".

"... At first, we also suspected that this was a trick of the demon envoys. They might have blocked the sun with something, so there was a process of a semicircle slowly engulfing the sun. For this reason, Evandel flew to the sky to verify it himself. Yes." The Pope looked at Avondel, hoping that he would give a more detailed description in person.

Evandel propped his forehead, and said dejectedly: "It's not a trick, and there's nothing blocking it. It's the sun itself that went out like a piece of burnt charcoal."

"So what's the solution?" asked a duke of a country.

"Unfortunately, so far we have nothing to do." The Pope said heavily.

"We came here at such a desperate moment, but you just wanted to tell us 'there is no way'?" The Duke became a little emotional.

"I have brought you together today because I know that at this moment, the concentration of public panic and dissatisfaction will make you feel uneasy. In the past, you have always resorted to foreign wars to transfer domestic conflicts. I think many of you I have already started the idea of ​​sending troops to plunder other countries' food reserves. I hope everyone can think clearly that today is different from the past. This is an unprecedented catastrophe. Even if someone wins the war, it is impossible to survive. It will only make everyone die Faster, killing each other will not solve the problem, we must unite to survive."

"Are you afraid that we will go to war? But now the civil war is the big problem we have to face. You may not know that in our country, the dwarves have just rebelled." A king said, "Their night vision ability is better than that of humans. It’s much better. Now that the sun has disappeared from the sky, they think it’s time to stand up. A few bandits climbed up and gathered a large number of rebels. They are madly attacking strongholds in my country, burning, killing, and looting. The situation is almost under control. Can't stop."

A duke said: "The same is true of the dwarves in our country, this bunch of damned scum, we kindly let them live, give them jobs and housing, but they think of rebellion every chance they get, if we knew this, we should have killed all these dwarves back then." Just kill them all."

Evandel snorted coldly: "Desecrate their beliefs, attack their homes, and leave survivors struggling to survive at the bottom of human society. Do you expect them to be grateful?"

What he said made the faces of the king and the duke change. They are all people of high status, and they have never seen anyone be so rude in person.

"Evandel, don't talk about this." The Pope hurried out to smooth things over. He knew that Avandel was a bold man, and he didn't take these princes and nobles seriously. His mouth could choke people to death if he was mean. , but this will only cause unnecessary trouble, he changed the topic in time: "We still have to find a way to let the sun shine on the sky again, otherwise everyone will only have a dead end if this continues. Didn't the demons say that they have a way to let the sun shine on the sky again?" Does the sun reappear?"

Darris, the Knights Templar who had been silent just now, immediately said, "How can we cooperate with the demons?"

A king was in trouble: "So what to do, there has been no sunshine for half a month, and the seeds that the farmers just planted have died. Seeing that all the crops this year will fail, and the vegetation is also withering. It won't be long before the livestock die. They will all starve to death, and the food reserves will not last long. As long as the sun does not rise, the famine will turn the entire continent into a hell on earth within three to five years. I know your faith is devout and holy, but can prayers fill your stomach?"

"The soul of those who blaspheme their faith cannot go to heaven!"

"I don't fucking want to go to heaven, I want my people to live!"

An envoy from another country said: "But cooperating with the demons may not guarantee survival. Who knows what conditions they will put forward."

"You may not be able to live if you cooperate with the demons, but if you don't cooperate with the demons, you will only die!"

There was a heated debate at the scene. The more realistic people felt that they should try to get in touch with the demons. There were also some pious people who stood by Darius and believed that they should never trade with the demons.

Amidst these noisy waves, Evandel, who was already sick, supported his forehead uncomfortably.

The Pope leaned over and asked, "Evandel, what do you think?"

"I also oppose this proposal." Evandel rubbed his temples and said wearily, "The demons have ulterior motives and cannot be trusted."

"At least we can hear what they have to say," the pope said. "In any case, the situation cannot be worse than it is now."

Evandel didn't speak, not because he didn't want to talk to the Pope, but because he felt an unusual breath in the air.

Evandel stood up vigilantly and looked around. He was the first to notice the abnormality, and soon many people saw that near the statue of the God of Light in the hall, a strange twist occurred in the air.

"It's a crack!" Evandel warned loudly, "Be careful of the devil!"

The envoys and kings were all shocked. The sudden appearance of demons in this kind of place shows that the demon army not only has the information of this world, but also has the ability to strike accurately. The chain problems caused by the disappearance of the sun are enough to cause headaches. It's really a house leak and it rains all night.

The Pope immediately told the envoys and kings of various countries to retreat towards the door. Darius and the Templar guards all drew out their swords as if they were facing an enemy. He got down and drew his long knife to be on guard.

But what appeared in front of them was not an ugly demon, but a very beautiful woman with pale golden hair and a marble-like complexion, and her whole body was shrouded in a soft light, which looked very beautiful. Very holy feeling, this light makes the candles in the hall eclipsed.

"Put down your weapons, mortals," she began. "You should not consider me an enemy."

"Who are you?" asked the pope in astonishment.

"You haven't seen me, but you should be familiar with my name. I am Cassandelle, the current king of the Protoss."

"Cassandelle", this name is known to everyone in the church, but no one has ever mentioned it, because according to the doctrine, mortals are not qualified to call her by her first name, so people have always used various titles to refer to her--the God of Light, the Sun God or simply our Lord.

She didn't even leave portraits and statues, because the church believes that no skill can show her one-ten-thousandth demeanor. It is said that she is as unbearable as the sun, and people can only worship the sun-shaped icon. This is to express my respect for her.

Now this legendary sun god appeared in front of people like this.

Everyone was stunned, until the Pope took the lead and knelt down tremblingly: "My Lord, God of Light, I never imagined that I would see your miracle reappear in my lifetime."

The Templars knelt down to the luminous lady, but Cassandelle ignored the pious believers, and her eyes fell on the youngest mage present: "I came here to find A descendant of Sharma, a powerful mage with the blood of the gods."

Everyone looked at Evandel.

Facing this "god", Evandel not only did not kneel down, nor even showed a respectful attitude, but asked with a face full of disbelief: "You are really that Cassandelle back then? How is this possible... More than 3000 years have passed since the war between gods and demons."

"We have a powerful power beyond your reach, which is enough to allow us to transcend the limitation of lifespan and become immortal." Cassandelle answered his doubts, but Evandel immediately asked the next question: "Then why God of War, Sharma, didn't survive till now?"

"Don't you know? Your ancestor was originally a member of the Immortals, but she gave up her power to expel us." Cassandelle looked down at Evandel with her eyes downcast, "I can't live in this world Staying too long, are you wasting your time asking questions?"

The people present looked at Avondell in disbelief, condemnation, or worry, but couldn't understand the mage's attitude towards the gods. However, in Avondell's cognition, the gods and demons are just older than humans It's just a stronger race, nothing special other than that, he looked directly into Cassandelle's eyes and asked, "Then why did you come to me specifically?"

Before Cassandelle could speak, Darris, the Knights Templar, raised his head and looked at the God of Light with fanaticism on his face: "My lord, did you come to the mortal world to save the common people? As your humble Servant of you, I beg you to grant us your grace again."

His interjection set off a flurry of pleas.

"Shut up." Cassandelle said indifferently, "Although you call me the sun god, the existence of the sun has nothing to do with me. You have a sun that can illuminate and provide energy for the growth of all things, yes Because in the early days of creating this world, we burned another world to illuminate you."

What she said shocked even the most knowledgeable Avandell present, and those who had always believed in the church version of the creation legend were even more stunned.

Cassandelle didn't care if other people understood, she just looked at Evandel, and continued to say calmly: "Everything is born and must die, and the world must end when it is created. We destroyed the world that is going to end. , using its last waste heat to provide energy for the life of Feanor world. From the very beginning we knew that that world would burn out one day, and the re-confluence of Feanor world and Titan world accelerated this process, it was destined result."

"Then what to do?" Evandel was a little confused. He knew that there must be a reason for Cassandelle to explain this to him, but his feverish head really couldn't think about too complicated things.

Cassandelle calmly said something that surprised him even more: "As long as the world of Titan is burned, the world of Feanor can have a sun again."
