Two days later.
A certain city.
A sharp arrow tore through the air, with a whistle-like sound, passed through the long block, and directly pinned a man to the wall.
"Help...life..." the man struggled and shouted.
"Help?"
A female voice sounded.
Crow slid down from the wall and stared at the man with interest.
The man begged: "I'm really not an evil ghost, I'm just a civilian. Please don't kill me."
Crow drew out his stabbing sword and said with a smile: "It's a pity that I am never soft-hearted when it comes to killing people."
"Do not lie to you……"
The man raised his hand with difficulty and pointed to the ajar door behind him.
Inside the door, a woman was holding a baby in her arms, looking at Crow with horror on her face.
Crow took a look and his expression became complicated.
She shouted towards the end of the street:
"Hey, did you make a mistake this time? Maybe that bastard won't harm civilians?"
There was no response from the end of the street.
The wind was blowing loudly.
Maybe the crow was making too much noise, and the baby was frightened and cried loudly.
Crow looked at the end of the street and said irritably: "I was born as a master, and I have never dealt with ordinary people - what should I do with this commoner?"
Suddenly, Gu Qingshan's voice sounded from beside him:
"Let me see."
Gu Qingshan tied the long bow behind his back, put one hand on the man's chest, and held the black book in the other hand, and read softly:
"The birth and death of all things only occur in an instant. With my power of condemning sins, your suffering will be saved——"
"Holy Word Technique, Pure."
The man's body suddenly shook and he died on the spot.
"No!" the woman cried.
She rushed out of the room with her child in her arms and hurried towards the man's body.
Crow looked at the body, then at the woman, and said hurriedly: "Hey, this is an ordinary person without abilities, what are we going to do-"
Gu Qingshan said nothing, but already held the long bow in his hand.
"You-" Crow shouted nervously.
Gu Qingshan ignored him and raised his hand to shoot.
A bolt of lightning flew out of the bowstring and pierced the woman's shoulder, dragging her out and fixing her to the wall.
"Ahhh!" The woman's whole body twitched and screamed.
When the arrow hit her, the baby had already been thrown out of her hand and was about to hit another wall.
Ya Ya hurriedly went to pick up the baby, while Gu Qingshan flew forward, held the woman down with one hand, took out the black book with the other, and read quickly: "The birth and death of all things can only happen in an instant. With my power to judge sins, the suffering you have suffered will be inevitable." will be saved—"
"Holy Word Technique, Pure."
The woman was shocked, and immediately a black shadow flew out of her body and slowly dissipated.
At this time, Ya Ya had already caught the baby and was looking up at Gu Qingshan and the woman with concern.
"Get away from that baby!" Gu Qingshan suddenly shouted.
In Crow's arms, the crying baby suddenly stretched out his hands and stabbed Crow fiercely.
The baby has a ferocious face, and its hands turn into sharp claws that can cut off anyone's neck with just one move.
——Almost succeeded.
But at the last moment, turbulent cold air came out of Crow's body, freezing the baby directly in a piece of crystal clear ice.
"go!"
The stuffed duck jumped out of Crow's arms and kicked the ice away.
The baby realized that he had lost his chance, and a dark mist gradually surged around him.
The mist condensed into a ghost wearing a red mask, staring straight at Gu Qingshan.
"Rhode," the ghost said, "nearly 60% of ordinary people in this world have their souls controlled by me. You can't kill me."
His tone became joking: "Or do you enjoy killing civilians? Very good, I will satisfy you. Wherever you go, I guarantee that all civilians will die."
Gu Qingshan said calmly: "These people have died a long time ago, and their souls no longer exist. Otherwise, after I removed your magic just now, they should have come back to life instead of dying."
Ya Ya just broke out in a cold sweat, and now he said angrily: "Asshole, you kill the baby too, you trash."
He thrust out his sword.
The ghost was immediately blown away, leaving only sporadic sounds:
"Strange...the one who condemns sin...aren't you..."
The sound disappears.
——The red ghost's technique is over.
Ojuan stepped forward to inspect the three corpses and said: "It's still the same technique. It will not be noticed normally. Only after it is activated, it will instantly kill the soul and transform it into a corpse that can be controlled from a distance."
He shuddered and whispered: "There is such a vicious technique in the evil ghost world? We have never found it in the Void Library."
Gu Qingshan looked at the corpse on the ground.
a family of three.
Without the invasion of evil spirits, they should have lived a peaceful life, instead of being like this, with only corpses left.
Two days ago.
In the wilderness outside Ramon Town, the masters of the Holy Spirit World killed a large number of evil spirits.
The red ghost didn't know what kind of magic he used, so he only escaped with his own body.
This is just the beginning.
When the truth was revealed, the strong men thought of many ways, and finally announced seven sacred techniques for identifying identities to discover hidden evil spirits and help people eliminate them.
What they didn't expect was that in the entire Holy Spirit World, the evil spirits had been planning for a long time, and they had a large number of nobles who had their bodies taken away, and even the civilians were controlled to a considerable extent.
The troubled times have finally come.
One of the two empires, the Frost Empire directly announced that it would not accept any magic test, and stated that everything was an illusion and an excuse for the strong to destroy the empire.
From top to bottom, the entire empire joined in the war preparations. The strong men of the empire directly began to invade other principalities, large and small, and called it a preemptive battle to defend justice.
It is already obvious that the evil spirits have taken away most of the powerful people in this empire and actually control everything.
Another empire, the Roland Empire, after intense investigation, found that there were very few evil ghosts taking over the bodies in their area.
It turns out that this has something to do with the customs and customs of the empire.
The nobles of the Roland Empire believe that anything given by others must be dedicated to the gods first.
They soaked the inherited spells, treasures, and armors given by the evil spirits in the sacred spring to show their dedication to the gods, and then they took them for themselves.
The Sacred Spring of Ceremony naturally has its own power of purification, and treasures soaked in it will directly lose their effectiveness in seizing possessions.
The evil spirits have no good way to deal with this, and they dare not try to shake this belief.
In the end, the evil ghosts could only offer some things that they could appreciate to the nobles of the Roland Empire, and focus their main energy on the Frost Empire.
The principality where Gu Qingshan is located is part of the Frost Empire.
Now, the two empires have finally completely turned against each other——
In other words, the evil spirits finally showed their true colors.
The war broke out without any dispute.
This time, everyone is involved.
"The city seems to be about to collapse. Do we want to add some help?" Crow asked.
Gu Qingshan buried the three corpses with him and looked into the depths of the city.
There are all kinds of people there.
——A person who is possessed by evil spirits.
The army, civilians, and nobles are all trying their best to resist the attack of the Roland Empire.
These people are actually evil spirits who seize the body.
The red ghost didn't know what kind of magic he used. He could control anyone's body at any time and give orders to the evil ghosts.
The roar of the spells continued, resounding throughout the sky.
The ground shook together with the buildings, occasionally making rumbles of collapse.
The siege continues.
Gu Qingshan sighed and said: "Let's go back to the Roland Empire first. We are going to be knighted today. We need to control the power so that we can better deal with the problem."
Crow agreed: "Indeed, but after the knighthood is over, I want to kill evil ghosts again."
Gu Qingshan looked at him.
His eyes were filled with unstoppable murderous intent.
"Okay, I'll come with you." Gu Qingshan said.
A burst of white mist was generated out of thin air, covering the two of them like a whirlwind.
They left the war-torn city neighborhoods.
Roland Empire.
The capital, the City of the Holy Crown.
As soon as Gu Qingshan and the others returned to the room, they heard a knock on the door.
"Rhode, your Majesty has summoned you."
Gu Qingshan opened the door and walked towards the palace with the guards.
After many tests, he and Ya were finally led into the palace hall.
From a distance, one could see the King of the Roland Empire discussing the war situation with other powerful men, and from time to time someone would come quickly to report the latest military information.
The urgency of war arose in Gu Qingshan's heart.
The guard asked Gu Qingshan and Ya to stay where they were before he stepped forward and reported loudly:
"Your Majesty, Rhodes has been brought here."
All chatter disappeared.
The strong men turned their heads to look at Gu Qingshan.
King Roland also put away the serious look on his face and walked towards Gu Qingshan with a smile.
"The first person to gain insight into the evil ghost's conspiracy turned out to be a young man, and a rare Convict - in fact, no Convict has appeared on the continent for a long time, and the Condemned Church is only an empty shell."
He drew out his ceremonial sword and gently touched Gu Qingshan's shoulder.
"Rhodes, I have a question." King Roland said.
"Your Majesty, please speak." Gu Qingshan said.
King Roland said: "I want to know why you doubt the gifts from evil spirits. You must know that this has been a convention for thousands of years and everyone has been used to it."
Gu Qingshan said: "Your Majesty, getting something for nothing always makes me feel uneasy, and I am not afraid to speculate on it with the greatest malice."
King Roland thought for a moment.
"You are right. The reason why we are paralyzed by evil spirits is actually because our strength makes us arrogant and prejudiced, but I promise that we will not do it again in the future."
After he finished speaking, he tapped Gu Qingshan's shoulders heavily with his ceremonial sword and said:
"I, King of Roland, Friedrich, would like to take this gift and canonize Baron Rhodes as Viscount of the Saint Laurent Empire, and for his salvation and contribution to all mankind, I canonize him as Earl of White Night."
"May your heart be like a blazing holy light that eliminates all darkness in the world so that night will never fall for all living beings."
Gu Qingshan was slightly startled.
King Roland put away his ceremonial sword, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Actually, the earl cannot match your contribution, but you are only fifteen years old, I can't give you too much power, it will destroy you - you Do you have any opinions?"
"No." Gu Qingshan said.
"Very good. It's wartime now. Everything should be kept simple, but you should get everything you need. Someone will take you to get it."
"yes."
"By the way, what do you want to do next? The territory I gave you is one of the best resorts in the empire. Go check it out first."
"Your Majesty, I discovered the evil ghost thing first. I want to go to the battlefield."
King Roland smiled.
Those strong men also looked at Gu Qingshan with a little smile.
"A nice little guy." The red-haired beauty licked her lips and said softly.
"Yes, the new sinner." The old farmer said with emotion.
King Roland's attitude was a little more cordial and he said:
"Rhode, you are a good child and will become a pillar of the empire in the future. There is no doubt about this. But now you are only fifteen years old. You need to be protected and grow up through time. You also need to know some Like-minded friends, I even hope you can find some love here."
Gu Qingshan wanted to say something else, but the King of Roland already patted him on the shoulder and said:
"Don't worry, so many of us strong men are here. We are enough for the war - come here, take our new earl down. He needs a dress to show his identity."
