Invade the white dove

Excluding the initial 43 people who died in the stampede, Sotiria "killed" eight people in anger, and the remaining 52 people suffered only minor injuries.

Sean tied them together again, and drove them with a whip to the death row prison, which was located in the southwest corner of the Colosseum and across from Inno Square.

The streets that should have been empty began to appear in twos and threes.Presumably Gray Crow has reported the search results to the king, and those innocent spectators naturally have the right to go home.

The team escorting the prisoners moved forward slowly and collided head-on with the citizens of Stanley who were returning home.

People had witnessed the guards dragging them out of the auditorium in the Colosseum. Now seeing these "remnants of false gods", they wished to throw all the vicious curses on their faces.

and drool.

Under the orders of Ulis, Sean carefully maintained the order so that the prisoners would not fight with passers-by.However, although Sean was wearing the black cloak and chain mail exclusive to the guards, his appearance was clearly that of a half-year-old boy, and he had no deterrent effect on the crowd.People just pushed, shoved and cursed, and didn't pay him any attention.

Seeing that several times, someone almost spit on Julius, Sotiria seemingly unintentionally drove the horse forward, raised his hand high, and with a "snap", the whip whipped the ground, which shocked everyone Trembling, no longer dare to approach their team.

Sotiria turned her head and raised an eyebrow at Julius.

Unexpectedly, his little prince didn't give him half a look, but stared at the front of the prisoner line.

Madame Madeleine.

Her dress was singed and her hair was a mess, but her back was still straight.

She took the lead in singing the Ode to God.

Julius's black cloak was burned in the fire long ago, and his beautiful red hair was also cut off by him in a crisis. At this moment, the hair of uneven length is messy on his head, his cheeks are also stained with black ash, and he has no demeanor at all. .But the tall black horse under his crotch was striding forward steadily, which made him look even more embarrassed.

But Julius didn't care. He just listened to the passers-by cursing the Aushen believers expressionlessly, looked at Madame Madeleine's back, and tightened his grip on the reins.

Until the line of sight is blocked by a hand.

"You appointed the kid who was scared to pee his pants by the illusion I created as the vice-captain?"

Sotiria, who was riding a white horse, pulled the rein from Julius's hand, and asked half-jokingly.

Julius's confused thoughts were easily carried away by Sotiria: "He is still young, fearful when facing me, greedy when he sees delicious food, he is not like those who have trained After ten years, it has completely become as indestructible as a sharp knife without emotion."

He explained, "There is no impenetrable fortress in the world, and the easiest way to break it is to disintegrate from within. I think you should know better than me."

"So you want to try to cultivate your own power, starting with this self-satisfied kid?" Sotiria pulled the rein, making the two horses get close enough, and let their shoulders rub against each other, "You Imagine him remembering you for having promoted him."

Julius nodded.

"Good idea." Sotiria raised his hand and finally managed to press it on Julis's head, gently flattening the short hairs on the top of his head, "but the cultivation of a person's character takes up the day after tomorrow." A large factor is that he has been immersed in the Guards Battalion for too long, and his good and evil are not the same as your good and evil. So the fact is that he will be grateful to you for a while, but immediately forget that you have helped him .Not only will he not regard you as a benefactor, but when encountering difficulties, he will curse you: Why put him in such a position and let him get into trouble."

Julis immediately retorted: "No, you don't know..."

"Human nature?" Sotiria laughed amidst the boos around him, "I have seen well-meaning couples take in a lost traveler, but the traveler strangled the man, took the woman, and threw the baby to death at night. children;

"I have seen knights kill nobles who are bullying girls, but in court, the girl's father identified the knight as a murderer;

"I've seen a man weeping and asking God to heal his seriously ill wife and promising to sacrifice a hundred cows for him, but when she died in childbirth he cursed God for taking away his beloved , Angrily destroyed the temple.

"I saw..."

Sotiria chuckled and wanted to continue talking, but the white horse suddenly snorted and interrupted his words, while the black horse under Julius shook its head and rubbed its companion affectionately.

Yulis silently put his hand on the back of Sotiria's.

He was not as eloquent as Sotiria, especially comforting words.He just looked at him in silence, looking at Sotiria's left eye, which was still patched.

Sotilia also looked back at him, and his shadow was full of waves in the pool of clear spring.

The anger flickering in Mr. Knight's eyes suddenly extinguished.

"I also saw a toddler who had just learned to walk, grabbing the milk candy his father had just bought, ran crookedly to the ragged beggar, and gave him all his brains. The toddler also called him Mr. Gentleman, To be friends with him."

Julis frowned: "It seems that you like children."

"I like it..." Sotilia's eyes were finally filled with a smile, he seemed to be looking at Julius, and at the same time he seemed to be looking at the rein in his hand, "I really like it."

"Jerveirsoteria." Sotiria added.

It's an ancient saying again, but this time it won't trouble Julius.He has been memorizing that thick ancient language dictionary for the past few days. He paid special attention to the word "soteria" because it sounds similar to "Soteria".

Jerveirsoteria - You are my salvation.

"You mean to say that toddler saved you? But 'Ler' or 'Lar' should be used in the third person, not 'Jer', which is the second person."

Julius lifted his chin lightly, and corrected him somewhat flamboyantly.

Seeing that Julius's mood seemed to have finally improved a lot, Sotiria smiled and nodded: "You are right, 'Jer' is the second person."

However, Sotiria did not correct his mistake, but subtly jumped to another topic: "...you let those young people go around such a big circle, even if they escape successfully, it is not necessarily Bring the news to Sanctuary."

In the eyes of others, the eight young people were smashed into meatloaf by the angry devil, but that was the illusion created by Sotiria specially for them.

The fire in the devil's branch hall, the collapsed tower, and the anger of the devil were all his plans with Sotiria, just to make those young people look "dead".

And the "corpses" of those young people were also taken advantage of by Sotiria and hid in the secret passage prepared in advance, hoping that when they wake up, they can escape out of the city cleverly.

Julius flicked the reins, and separated the two horses that were gnawing at each other: "Before Lisa's incident, Kyle had never known the existence of this organization, which shows that their secrecy measures are very good, and they must have done it long ago. Prepare to be discovered. Now I just hope they don’t impulsively run to the prison to rescue their companions after they thought they had narrowly escaped death.”

Julius knew that he could not save everyone, and he also knew that he was not qualified to judge the pros and cons of every life, but——

"For greater justice, sacrifice is inevitable."

This is the advice given to him by the angel of Thoth.At the same time, in order to let him go, the angel also told him that all the "sins" he committed in Stanley will be forgiven.

So in order for the light of the God of God to shine on Stanislav again, he must sacrifice the lives of some people to save more people.

And the young people he selected were not first of all informers who voluntarily confessed to their companions, which proved their reliable character.

Second, it was because Julius saw that although they had wavered, they had regained their determination.

——This at least proves that they are not martyrs who wholeheartedly want to prove their faith with death.Although Ulis has the same respect for such martyrs, he feels that they are sometimes too persistent: sacrifice may be inevitable, but sometimes there is a better solution than sacrifice.

The teacher who taught him the history of theology once said that there are two types of people who are the most steadfast believers in God, one is the martyr, and the other is the penitent who has wavered but returned to the right path, because guilt will drive them to have a more steadfast belief. belief.

Third, young people have more active minds and better physical strength, and have a better chance of surviving than middle-aged people and the sick.

And others can only be sacrificed by him.

Hope those survivors can bring the news of the red-haired devil in Stani City to the sanctuary.

In that way, the Angel of Thoth must have guessed that the first step of the hidden plan was successful.
