Praise of the Light to the Dark Knight

The hillsides outside the temple are full of unknown wild flowers. The gardeners hired to trim the plants every year agree that these wild flowers are not worthy of the status of the Temple of Light, but the temple politely rejects the gardeners' promotion every time. precious plants.From January to the end of March every year, these unknown weeds put up small white flowers overnight, turning into a sea of ​​pure white. When the breeze blows, these nameless wild flowers sway and fall towards the direction of the temple, like extremely worshiped.

The group of halls, which are also dominated by white, embraces the rolling hills tightly. The first ray of sunlight in the morning will pass through the Gaoling Mountains, across the hills, and over the top of the white tower bell tower in the main hall, filling the human kingdom. gold.

The Holy Light City, the royal capital of Oslant, is one of the largest cities in the human kingdom. It is bustling and noisy, radiating outwards from the palace as the center.

The Temple of Light in each main city likes to be located in the center of the city, even the city lord's mansion and offices can't compete with them, but the central main hall of the temple is always located in the Gorantillo hills on the outskirts of the City of Light. This hill is independent of the secular and completely belongs to the land of the temple, which is recognized by all countries.

Adjacent to such a large temple of faith, it is not subject to the control of the royal power. The royal family of Osland is actually not so magnanimous to the outside world. The emperor is not unconfident, but he himself does not know why. Every time people from the temple come, he I can't help but take out my most gorgeous set of clothes and wear them, and I have to make a big show.

In particular, the Holy Lord of Light has just personally visited and proposed that the convening of the Great National Defense Joint Conference must be postponed. The reason is very strong——

Holy Lord Mino said solemnly, "Assassins dared to come to the main hall of the temple to assassinate, which shows that the current situation is not safe and peaceful. If so many kings gather together, it is easy to cause big trouble."

Gesa, the emperor of Oslant, felt that the clothes were too heavy, and he was tired from moving. He pulled his beard in frustration and was speechless—his little daughter had just been kidnapped by assassins, so he was ashamed to say that the temple Security is not good.

Especially when I just received an urgent secret report from below: a small-scale riot occurred in the Yinxin Fortress.

The villain in Emperor Gesa's heart roared up to the sky, but he had to maintain the majesty on his face that did not lose to the Holy Lord, otherwise tomorrow there would be folk discussions that the leader of a country is not as reliable as an envoy.

——However, small-scale riots will be reported by urgent secret letter?When the king of a country eats dry food?

From this point of view, it is indeed necessary to temporarily postpone the great national defense, but why did the Holy Master stare at the big gemstone on his body for so long, and was not dazzled by the gorgeous jewels? It's sad.

Coming out of the palace, Mino quickly got into a carriage. It was a broken carriage that was so low-key that ordinary people would dislike it. No one would have guessed that the boss of the Bright Faith was sitting in it——

Also comes with a boss of Dark Faith.

Wherever Helena is, it will be extravagant. This world-famous black mage is a famous hedonist. Horror stories are sung everywhere. Ye Shengge forcibly robs the girls and so on...

Helena scoffed at this. The cushions are the softest and most comfortable made of fine silk and fine cashmere from the Gorgo Lago Mountains. Of course, the wine glasses must be made of magic crystals carved with constant temperature runes. As for the beauty, there is already a saint of light. The master was beating and scolding at the side, who would have the desire to snatch the other miscellaneous things?

"The bald old emperor agreed to postpone it?" Helena leaned on the cushion, slowly shaking the wine glass.

Mino sat extremely upright in a pile of cushions that were soft enough to bury him, and replied: "Your Majesty Gesa's hairline is just a little behind, and he is not yet 50 years old, so he can't be considered a bald old emperor."

"Anyway, he will be there in two years." Helena kicked him impatiently, "Don't talk nonsense."

"Yes, he agreed...but I think it's not good for us to spread rumors that the high priest was stabbed and seriously injured?"

Helena replied very indifferently: "Anyway, Yalan won't be angry, even if he is angry, at worst, I will compensate him with Etjaya's discount."

Mino: "...human trafficking is prohibited!"

"It has nothing to do with you." Helena said leisurely, and threw her foot on Mino's lap.

"Of course it is. Lord Yalan is my mentor of faith."

Helena nodded: "Yes, that's why we kept saying, I robbed him of one of his students, and now I give him back one, how fair it is."

Mino: "..."

He decided to stop arguing with Priest Siyue about this very villainous topic, so he said after a while, "Emperor Gesa just asked me to help find the kidnapped Princess Aiwen."

——Every country is trying hard not to let the core forces of the temple leave the main hall to share their profits, but they like to ask the temple for help in this kind of thing. For trivial things like rescuing the princess, letting the temple do it can save money Military expenses and mercenary money, and there will be no troubles such as a commoner or even a villain who accidentally rescues the princess and insists on marrying the princess, or asking for a title.What's more, most of the princesses' kidnappings are elopements planned by themselves, and asking the paladins to help find them can save face.

Mino denied: "Emperor Gesa was never such a short-sighted power holder. He said that the court mages checked the princess's room. They believed that some magic users in the north carried out the kidnapping. Maybe the princess has been transferred outside the empire. , where they can't interfere, he also said, if possible, it would be even better to invite Moving Shadow Moon."

"It is true that some priests of evil gods have been dormant in the northern snow ridge for a long time. Shadow Moon suppressed those people all the year round, but they also dragged Shadow Moon to the snow ridge." Helena looked grim, "This time the suspicion of the Annihilation Sect will be even greater Bar."

"Yes, the war has already begun." Mino nodded, "We sent a whole 18-member paladin squad to the Silver Heart Fortress, a sword-wielding priest, and the high priest himself was present. That fortress is the southern gateway. , the defense of the fortress itself should not be too flawed."

"Come on, you just want to send more people, can you send them out? Do you want to bet that your Knights Templar may not be able to go to the Holy Light City at the last moment." Helena sneered.

Holy Light City, the city named after Holy Light is not the strong backing of the holy temple. On the contrary, external forces are trying to confine them in this city. Since then, the capital city has been renamed the City of Holy Light to express the devotion of the entire country to the belief in light—but everyone hopes more and more that faith organizations can just mind their own affairs.

If the Paladin Legion is assembled to pass through the throat of the south, it is estimated that the kings and emperors of all countries will suffer from insomnia.

"It's okay, I put a priest and a knight there." Helena said, probably after speaking, she also felt that there were a little few people, and she really couldn't find confidence in the number of people, and the big priest who suddenly became angry overturned Wine jugs were scattered all over the car.

"Don't be angry..."

"Sooner or later, I will flatten the snowy mountains in the north, and I will go out to build branch halls all over the mountains and plains. I, Shadow Moon, also believe in the original power of the world. When I go out to do something, I will take out two people, and the rest are still digging in the snow cave. Hole, what are you talking about!" He shouted angrily.

The Annihilation Sect, an organization that claims its scientific name to be the Council of the Abyss of Shivar, has been dormant for many, many years, and finally launched an offensive. However, Shadow Moon and the Temple are not safe and unprepared for a long time. For more than ten years, but so far only some settlements of strange evil gods have been dug up, and one or two shamans or priests who are obviously mentally problematic have been caught. The real Annihilation Sect is hidden too deep, and people even doubt whether they are real Hidden a base camp in Xueling.

But Yingyue insisted on searching, because in the legend, this snowy ridge is linked to the birthplace of the goddess of annihilation. The influence of Yana is even greater. Therefore, although the Lord of Darkness and the God of Light are supreme, they can only be touched in the prayers of morning prayers all year round.

The Temple and Shadow Moon believe that there is a certain energy vein hidden in the snow ridge, which can hold a ceremony to communicate with the goddess of annihilation.

In the descending place of the gods, the connection with the gods will be strengthened. It is according to this logic that the Temple of Light will be located in the hills on the outskirts of the Holy Light City. This is the principle of the Shadow Moon and the Temple of Kantanaroa, so they are annihilated. The place where the goddess descended - the snowy ridge in the north is the most likely location of the Annihilation Sect's stronghold.

Based on this, Yalan and Etjaye believed that there would not be many followers of the sect who traveled thousands of miles to the edge of the southern jungle to attack the Silver Heart Fortress, but it might be an elite team.

The only known leader of this team is Asius.

The monarch didn't even know how much Etjaye wanted them to abandon the fortress and go home. Although this idea was similar to that of an ostrich, it would be a day if it could be delayed, because he couldn't imagine what it would be like for Yalan to meet Arthur.

This kind of worry became more and more serious as the situation outside the fortress became more tense. Police Etjaya felt like a stag, looking around with pricked ears. If there was any trace of undead power, he would immediately use his big horn Break those bones to pieces.

Not only is he inseparable, Et Gaya almost grows on Yalan.

"Did you watch me go to the restroom?" Yalan joked.

Et Gaya nodded: "Someone said no?"

"But only girls like to go to the bathroom in groups!"

"You are gender biased!" Et Gaya pointed out, "There is no certain preference that can only be possessed by a certain group of people. As the high priest of light, you must be fraternal and selfless, maintain an equal and objective heart, and treat everyone equally! "

Yalan: "..."

They were sitting under a tree by the side of the road, and the chaos and disorder around them was very annoying, so the priest and the knight were leaning against each other, which could be regarded as some kind of mutual encouragement.

The plague spell is still in effect, and even a Kantanaroa temple knight was infected. This is not a disease but a spell. Although it looks like some kind of plague, people with high magic resistance will be more difficult to infect , There is no mage among all the infected people. Although paladins are knights, holy light belongs to divine magic. Even if their holy light power is so weak that they can only emit candle-like light, it is still divine magic. Sex is very high.

"This spell is not a one-hit winning method." After observation, Et Gaya said, "From the beginning to now, it is only infecting ordinary people, not to mention paladins and priests, even the lowest-ranking mages among mercenaries can do it. avoid infection."

"Yeah, so there's already enough cannon fodder, and the last move will come soon. We're in the clear, so the only thing we can do is to stop quietly and wait for them to make a move."

But Etjaya grabbed Yalan's wrist and held it in his palm, his gesture was as devout as if he was holding some kind of sacred object.

"...I know what you're worried about."

As Yalan said, he put his hand on Etgaya's, and he smiled: "The real Asius is dead, and the undead creature who uses his name and appearance has no way to really hurt me. "
