God's family

Chapter 68 Split

The king died suddenly, and Prince Alar took out the will with the king's seal and announced that he was the new king, and quickly issued an announcement announcing that the second prince Raphael had colluded with other races and murdered the king, and ordered a nationwide hunt. In this battle, Raphael was completely suppressed by the wily Prince Alar, and lost the opportunity.

At the same time as the news that the king was murdered by the second prince was transmitted to Laycent's army, there was also an order from the "new king", ordering the eldest prince Laycent to return to the capital immediately and pay homage to the new king.

"Absolutely do not go back!" When Leon received this order, he quickly found Lacent and said firmly, "This is obviously a trap, whether it is the king's sudden death or his death, there is a hint of conspiracy , If we go back to the imperial capital alone at this time, we must be throwing ourselves into a trap, but if we don’t go back or bring our troops back, what awaits us is treason again!”

"...I just received an order from His Excellency the Bishop, hoping that we can stabilize for the time being and stay put." Fei stood beside Lacente and said respectfully in a low voice, "He thinks it's a murder, and the murderer is very serious. It may be Prince Raphael, not His Highness Raphael, who said that he would not allow such an evil person to use such heinous means to ascend to the throne, which is blasphemy to the gods."

"Where is the second prince, His Highness Raphael? Is he whereabouts?" Roger asked, rubbing his brows with some headaches.

"There is no news of being arrested so far, and I don't know if he escaped or was dealt with privately." Leon sighed. As a knight loyal to the royal family, he really didn't want to see the situation where the royal family could kill each other. Lal sent troops to wrap the king's capital into an iron barrel, but after digging three feet, he still couldn't find His Royal Highness Raphael, so he simply confirmed his statement that he couldn't escape with the help of a foreign race for rebellion."

Theodore and Gal also participated in this meeting. Although they were extremely worried about the situation of their companions, their identities of alien races prevented them from intervening too much.

"I also feel like Leon said, there is no good end to go back or not to go back." Theodore frowned, raised his hand to comb his blond hair unconsciously, "Maybe... I can beg my father The king offers you refuge..."

"I think he probably won't agree." Gal shook his head, "What if that Alar gets the news and uses this as an excuse to demand that the elves hand over Laycent, who was charged with treason by the human race? I think Lal will definitely not let Lacent, who is a threat to him, go free and give him the opportunity of "Prince's Revenge". Besides, the elves have no position to provide him with asylum and will not hesitate to fight against the human race. You will only let you Your father and king are in trouble."

Theodore pursed his lips and didn't speak any more. He himself knew that there was very little assistance he could give, but he couldn't do nothing. He just watched his best friend fall into danger.

"Thank you, Theodore, and Gal." Roger smiled, and thanked Lacente, "This matter is an internal matter of the human race, and we will find a way to solve it ourselves. To escape, absolutely not the right way to deal with it.”

"...No matter what, I will personally assist you." The elf prince said guiltily, his blue eyes dimmed slightly.

"Me too." Gal chuckled and patted Theodore on the shoulder.

"Anyway, it's certain that you can't go back." Seeing that his foreign friend's mood had stabilized, Roger turned his attention back again, "Once you go back, you can only wait for death. Your own army and territory." After a pause, he said again, "I think Lord Ain's army will soon be wiped out, and at this critical moment of the decisive battle, as the commander of the army, Laisant still postpones his return It is more appropriate to go to the king's capital. Besides, what is delivered to the army is not an official imperial edict, we have every reason to be vigilant and doubtful about it, and believe that His Majesty the 'new king' will understand our difficulties."

"...Is it okay to say that?" Leon was stunned, "It's so far-fetched?!"

"It's just a reason, why bother so much." Roger rolled his eyes at him, "Anyway, if we don't go back, we'll take down Ain's territory first. With a base and an army, what are we afraid of? Slow down." Just move around slowly and look for opportunities!"

Leon opened his mouth, but did not object.He has sworn loyalty to Laisant, and even if he doesn't want to see the infighting within the royal family, he will never push Laisant to death for this reason, besides, the enthronement of Prince Alar is not well-known By the way, if it is not right, treason is treason!

Fei also remained silent. This time, the views of Lacente and Bishop Lawrence were unified.

"Then, it's decided like this. I hope that Bishop Lawrence can find out the truth as soon as possible and uphold justice." Roger glanced at Fei and said softly, but it turned out that Lawrence, who had also been dormant for a long time, did not live up to his expectations.

Five days later, the temple suddenly announced the crime of Prince Yalar, saying that the temple would not support him to inherit the throne, and even condemned him in the name of a god, completely opposing the royal family centered on Yalar.

At the same time, the second prince Raphael appeared on the territory of his uncle, Duke Dinos, and joined the temple in a thunderbolt to declare himself the heir favored by the gods, and in the name of orthodoxy, crusade against the traitors who murdered the king and stole the throne Yalar.

The prince or the king Alar and the second prince Raphael supported by the temple officially started their unending posture, and two groups of people were also ushered in the army of Roger and Lesant, who were temporarily sitting on the mountain watching the tiger fight.A group of people came forward with great fanfare to persuade Laisant to support the second prince Raphael, while another group sneaked in secretly, expressing their hope to submit to them and support Laisant's ascension to the throne.

The most surprising thing is that these two groups belong to the same name - the temple.

"It seems that the temple itself is also split." Leon crossed his legs, looking extremely gloating, "I don't know what agreement Bishop Lawrence reached with His Royal Highness Raphael, and instead supported him and abandoned us, but obviously, the temple Many of them did not support his decision."

"Where there is uneven distribution of interests, there will be divisions. Isn't this a normal thing?" Roger shrugged lightly, and snorted softly, "The party whose interests were offended abandoned Bishop Lawrence, and turned to Take refuge in us."

"The temple...should be a transcendent existence, serve the gods for life, and should not participate in the change of regime. He was often amazed and overturned, but the prince of the elves was still shocked this time, "Besides——" Theodore glanced at Laicent, and after holding back for a long time, he finally said, "Your god is not Laicant. Is it?!" The question swallowed back, "Aren't you afraid of being punished by your god if your temple does this?"

Roger blinked, his eyes swept over everyone's faces, and the focus stayed on Fei for a while—this loyal child was finally annoyed and confused by the two forces that split the temple, and his face looked terrible. ——finally decided to speak out about his daring guess.

"I think that what the Human Race Temple did was not against the will of the gods, and even...they are obedient in this way."

A soft sentence made everyone's expressions change drastically, only Roger who dropped the bomb and Laycent who had always been indifferent to everything remained calm.

"According to the ancient dragon, the temple does not intervene in power struggles, but only serves the gods, precisely because of the long-standing agreement of the gods of various races: Unless they are in danger of genocide, they will only watch and will not participate. However, our gods , or our new god, has obviously betrayed the oath made by the former god."

Accusing the gods of breaking the oath, such outrageous words were spit out by Roger lightly, but obviously, others could not accept it as easily.

"How is this possible?!" Theodore stood up abruptly, a little uncontrollably, "Isn't your god Lycente?!"

Roger's expression was a little distorted. He didn't expect that everyone would really believe this statement!Suppressing a loud laugh, "Hahaha, don't be ridiculous, how can a human god be such a jerk as Nexant!" Roger tried his best to adjust his facial expression, and said calmly: "Lexant and God Is it just a guess, isn’t it? We shouldn’t speak out about things that he doesn’t even know. However, although I don’t know what Lacent’s identity is, I do know that he is definitely not the one standing behind the temple. A god."

"You mean... the human race has two gods?" Gal asked tentatively.

——I said, why do you always equate Lacente with God!Roger scratched his hair in frustration: "I said it's just a guess, a guess!"

"Then, what is the basis of your guess?" Fei said in a deep voice with displeasure on his face.He absolutely can't bear people's accusations against God, and it's just because the Lacente whom he gradually began to devote and loyal stood by Roger's side that he didn't say anything for a while, but his tone was definitely not kind, and it was like a storm was about to come. of danger.

——This is the first time Fei has expressed his emotions so clearly.

"I have a lot of basis for guessing like this." Roger looked at Fei seriously and calmly, raised his hand and raised the bracelet on his wrist that represented the identity of the god-favored one, "This bracelet-you all understand its meaning meaning; the responsibility I bear because of this bracelet; what I have seen and heard during this long journey; rod." Roger spread his five fingers, and Jeffrey the staff appeared in his palm, and he held it firmly, "Gal, Leon and Theodore, you probably only know that it has been enshrined in the Sea Clan Temple, Then it was handed over to me and Lacente by the sea goddess Emerald Sinar, but you don’t know that its previous owner was the former human god Clarence, and this staff also has its own will."

In the silence of the crowd, the staff slowly glowed, and the transparent figure of the blond boy gradually appeared behind it, floating in the air.

Glancing at the others indifferently, Jeffrey blinked his big blue eyes, and looked at Roger with some dissatisfaction: "What happened? Why did you call me out? Didn't you agree to hide my existence?" ?"

Under the nourishment of Roger's mana for a period of time, Jeffrey's ability gradually strengthened, and he was finally able to break away from the situation where he could only communicate with Roger, and truly revealed his figure.But obviously, he was not keen on such an approach, and even faintly rejected it.

"Sorry, I just think you need to listen to some things, and then prove it for me." Roger spread his hands and smiled.

He can basically control Jeffrey's emotions now. This is actually a very simple staff, and his temper is usually very gentle. A new god of the human race that replaced Clarence.

Unfortunately, the reason Roger called him out this time was because of this new god.

"What I want to explain is some recent things about the new gods of the human race."

Sure enough, when Roger said the second half of the sentence, Jeffrey's face suddenly sank.

If it was said that everyone had doubts about Jeffrey's identity at the beginning, when he pulled his face down in displeasure, the doubts disappeared.

The huge coercion is so similar to what Nexant once showed in front of everyone. A staff with independent consciousness is already amazing enough, and if the aura exuded by this staff still makes people feel If you are terribly afraid and want to worship devoutly, what other possibilities are there besides the explanation of the artifact?

Fortunately, although Jeffrey's air pressure was very low, he didn't just turn his head and disappear.After a long silence, after calming down the emotional fluctuations caused by Roger's words, Jeffrey said in a low voice: "Although I don't really want to know about him, but... what did he do?"

This simple reply not only clearly stated his position, but also implicitly proved Roger's previous words.

Hearing Geoffrey's question, Roger finally breathed a sigh of relief, and after signaling him to be calm, he began to tactfully talk about the things that were not humane during this period of time.

The bracelet bestowed by the gods himself, the choice of the gods to serve him, and the search for artifact fragments scattered all over the place, the figure behind the disturbance of the elves, sea tribes, and the Yi tribe is not just the temple of the human race. , is the god of the human race.

God will not interfere with people, but the new god probably broke this agreement long ago. Since he can extend his hand into other races and create chaos unscrupulously, then naturally he will also interfere with the internal affairs of the human race, such as this regime change.

Without God's backing, how could Bishop Lawrence dare to change the attitude of the bystander in the temple for thousands of years and really intervene in it?

Word by word, Roger spoke very clearly. He has been in the game for a long time, and he has no respect for the gods of the human race. Therefore, amidst constant doubts and speculations, no matter what signs point to the new gods of the human race.

The matter has come to this point, he feels that he needs to speak out, although he doesn't know what will be waiting for him next, and it's not to stop or resist anything, Roger just wants to know the truth and doesn't want to be kept in the dark , being manipulated involuntarily by unknown forces.

No one interrupted Roger's words, and even everyone's expressions were a little numb.

After a long time, when Roger's voice finally fell, Jeffrey let out a long sigh.

"Ulysses, he has come this far."

"...Ulysses?" Roger repeated the name.

"Yes, Ulysses, the new god of the human race." Jeffrey's tone was extremely cold, "This former godslayer."
