"It's not time yet," the ring told him, "the mysterious realm is not ready yet." The wave of elements is already troublesome enough, and the kingdom of order must not allow any more chaos.』
"A kingdom of order? We are not unknown, and the Gaia Church cannot represent order." Dalton was disgusted with this statement. The Holy Knight Captain of the Glorious Council is so worried about the country and the people, and regards the witch's prophecy as a life-saving straw. Roma's courage to make up for his mistakes made him feel ashamed, but these people were just looking for trouble.
As if someone forgetting to turn off a faucet overnight could lower the sea level in Knox by a meter. "If there is any trouble, it won't be caused by us. What if the Blood Clan doesn't maintain order? Is the Gaia Church more of a threat than Drablay and the demon society behind him?" Eastman is indeed remote, but it's not that serious. Not even news from the mysterious realm can be transmitted. Everyone knows that Gaia's place of faith has long since declined. "Didn't your master tell you to obey his apprentice?"
"How fresh, it seems that you know the master's orders better than me," Sauron sneered, "I want to ensure his safety as much as possible, not to do everything according to his mood." Uriel doesn’t know much about the mysterious realm, and he needs my help and guidance.』
"Does he need it?" Dalton still remembered Ring's eager look when he searched for the books in the Glorious Council. There are few records of Ain, the God of Dreams, and only places of faith such as the Radiant Council have documents. In terms of the amount of relevant knowledge, the two of them are evenly matched.
"Even the White Envoy needs me," Ring said angrily, "This is also the Prophet's decision!" The invitation from the Holy City is an exchange agreed between the Tower and the Radiant Council. I know Uriel is not happy, but he has to do it. Chloe wasn't left alone. He himself also knew that the prophet wanted him to suspend his actions against the Gaia Church.』
I was quite surprised that he would consider it this way, Dalton thought, but he didn't expect it to be true. He has always been insensitive to these details and often failed to understand the true meaning of DeWitt's orders. Now that Uriel has taken over the relevant matters, Dalton thought he would be relaxed from now on. "Since you two know each other well, why are you so secretly obstructing us?"
"nonsense. If I tell him straight, will he listen?"
"To be honest, you can't even convince me." The night elf engulfed the ice sculpture with its shadow. The wandering knights gathered under the tower, and Aldinite was right, the fire would help slow them down. "It sounds like the elemental tide is simply not on the same level as dealing with the Gaia Church. The latter cannot cause turmoil in the order, no doubt about it. Can you explain it?"
"I thought you knew, Elementalist"
"York's condition is really abnormal. This is different from the description I saw." Dalton carefully took off the ring. The mystery of the sky made the wind blowing in his face become biting, and his face felt like a knife. Windspeakers worship power and therefore believe that the White Envoy is the most respectable person. But if he felt the sting and numbness caused by this power all the time, he would definitely miss his normal companions. This is why tower astrologers are afraid of the Commander. Keeping your distance will do you good. "York also saw the book, and I thought there might be some connection there, just like... the impact of prophetic dreams on reality."
He found that the ring was frozen in mid-air, motionless. "Roma told you? ’ it asked angrily.
"It has nothing to do with her." Receiving a prophetic dream will lead to the future being determined. This is undoubtedly the most important secret for Croita. Where better to get prophecies than in a gathering of astrologers? Once the mysterious realm knows the truth of prophetic dreams, astrologers will no longer be messengers of destiny, but sinners who bring disaster. Dalton would not publicize the shortcomings of prophetic dreams.
"I knew it from the beginning... I can't say that... In short, there are many ancient stories buried in Zangwill's library. It's just that there are so many books that even Priest Lucia didn't find it." Library The total number of classics is an astonishing number, and there are more than a dozen books and catalogs related to the gods alone. If it weren't for Uriel's special magic, they wouldn't be able to find their target when the elemental tide ends. Dalton didn't know much about prophecy or astrology, but not as little as the Tower apprentice thought. He can understand most magic books and even a small number of ancient documents written in Norn language. Neither York nor Uriel could understand it, and Sauron the Ring was busy filling in the database.
He didn't intend to threaten him, but he didn't mind letting Sauron think so. "Tell the truth, Soren Gessen. What is the difference in this elemental tide?"
"No difference, it's Knox's problem." Sauron realized that he had to convince Dalton first, otherwise he would not let him help convince Uriel. It writes down reluctantly. "According to Croita's observation records in recent years, the astronomical laboratory has discovered that the barriers to order are getting thinner year by year."
Order thinning? "Why did this happen all of a sudden?" Dalton frowned.
"It's not sudden. The line of law is not static, it inherently fluctuates cyclically. Where do you think elemental tides come from? The fundamental reason lies in the change of order. Order is also mysterious. But this time their troughs and peaks coincided with each other. There’s nothing to worry about, because this chance encounter only lasts a moment.』
It seems reasonable. "Aside from the barrier of order, was this also the case in the past few times?"
"No difference. The Seven Fulcrums have already had countermeasures to consciously control the situation in the subject countries. The Oath Keepers Alliance was an accident, and the Glitter Pool was preparing to deal with the turbulence of the elements, so it was neglected. Lord Prophet and Lord 'Second Truth' responded quickly, Croita was responsible for positioning, and the School of Silence launched ritual magic, destroying the Mystery of Pain with one blow.』
Dalton had no idea what was going on in the Gulf War. Does Uriel know this? Or does he insist on dealing with the church? "He doesn't believe what you say. Or, since the Mysterious Fulcrum has already planned, nothing he does will affect the overall situation." The night elf suddenly realized the problem, "The astrologer knows exactly what he is going to do. Through precognition and dreams, and Some other way. Hell, you already knew that. This is his destiny."
Runes flickered on the ring.
"The tower is the tower of astrologers" it did not deny, "Isn't that what astrologers do?"
…
"So you all unite just to go against me?" Uriel pulled off the ring. "Say something, Sauron. You shouldn't be silent."
The ring is as quiet as death.
"It's useless to ask," Dalton told him. "Sauron doesn't want to stop you. Although the mysterious realm has already dealt with it, the elemental tide is still very dangerous."
The tower apprentice understood. "So as long as I stay out of trouble with the church, I'm safe? Because my destiny isn't fulfilled yet?"
"I guess that's what it means."
"Then how long do I have to wait?" Uriel was so angry that he wanted to laugh, "Do you think I am really an apprentice, and I need to stay in Bloomnot before lighting the fire to save my life?" He raised his voice, "Since this is My destiny, so when it comes, how can I refuse it?”
"Elemental Tide..."
"...I can't stop you." After all, Sauron Gessen is only a rune life and does not understand human thoughts. Dalton spent more time integrating into human society than studying magic script. "I know this, Uriel. I also know your mission." Overthrow the dominance of the church and set up a new banner. An incredible path of thorns, a path of blood and fire. "Astrologers think they can manipulate destiny, just like you think we can't help you. I didn't say yes to it. I said no."
He felt that he was clumsy and tongue-tied. Ingrid had laughed at him, but now Dalton must convince a priest of Gaia. He had convinced me in turn. Gods be damned, this is really not my specialty. "The reason is obvious. When I left Knight's Bay alone, I really wished I was not alone. Your Excellency, the Witch of Fate, guided me to meet Roma on Gray Wing Bird Island..."
"You'd better not learn from her. The accident in Silverdome City is my responsibility." If Uriel directly sent Roma back to Knight's Bay, they would never encounter the Lord of Flame Moon. "I'm already reflecting."
The drow turned a deaf ear. "...She shared with me her fate and her courage to face the future. The core of entering the painful secret is not only her personal adventure, but also luck, fellow travelers and the stone forest. Once one of them is missing, we will have become It’s become the magic potion in the pond.”
"Returning in time can avoid these situations. You should bring that girl back!"
"Do you think Roma is a piece of luggage? Do you think I am qualified to ignore her fate? You are an astrologer, Uriel, you claim to be so. If this is the reason why you can support your stubbornness after making successive mistakes , then I can’t deny it. Because I can’t even see clearly in front of my own eyes! Do you know what will happen to us? In the Church of Gaia? In the School of Silence?”
"A lot of things are not that hard to understand."
"I have to apologize for my bloodline, to be honest. Is it the nature of elves to show arrogance in front of humans? Now I am not even as good as a human in terms of my ancestral skills."
"The future can change, there is no doubt about it. You will never understand this, and the same goes for Dalton and Sauron. You all don't understand."
It can be seen that Uriel is not unable to ignore such accusations. The night elf's sarcasm really didn't mean anything. Fortunately, he knew how to use his strengths and avoid his weaknesses.
"Changing the future," he repeated slowly, "sounds like your area of expertise. But we've been to the holy city of Zangwill together, and before that we've searched most of Eastman's Gaia Church. Can you To change the future, can you change the past?" The tower apprentice did not answer. "What is in front of you is far from the cliff, Uriel, and now is far from the time for you to regret it. York and Roma are the same, they are not your baggage. Why choose Miss Roma and reject us? The elemental tides are equal Covering every order life, you feel that the responsibility belongs to you alone. How merciful! Maybe soon you will punish yourself as the sun sets. Does this kind of extremism make you feel more different from the priests of Gaia? ?”
"Gaia's moral teachings have a bottom line, and I'm not trying to keep myself clean." The apprentice defended, "I'm just choosing the most suitable path, Dalton, after all, this is the reality."
A complete lie. If you are really the kind of person who easily accepts reality, you will not have the idea of overthrowing the church. "The reality of the next second is the future, and someone claims to be good at changing every next second. How about playing to your strengths, buddy? It's time to show your true skills." Dalton chuckled, and the Tower Apprentice glared Looking at him. "Look, Uriel, you can't take away our right to continue. It's the responsibility of all of us."
There was silence. None of them spoke again, and Sauron also shut his mouth. Just when Dalton thought his eloquence was completely hopeless, the messenger from the tower finally compromised. "Tell me about the elemental tides."
…
The weather in Moniantoros has never been cheerful. As sunny as it is in Marandeno, the city of Auroville, the sky here is so gloomy and dull. The locals believed that wizards could control the weather, so they knelt down and prayed to them - the names of gods were placed above the heads of mortals, and the people involved happily accepted it and did not think there was anything wrong with it. Such absurd sights are a specialty of Moniantoros. If the priests of the Glorious Council learned about the status of the gods here, they would be stunned. The agent's severing of ties with the Church of Gaia can be said to be the wisest decision since the dissolution of the alliance, and its impact is comparable to that of the White Prophecy.
Lucia's great justice is still praised in Binyaio, but Gaia is not so lucky. Perhaps this benevolent goddess will disappear from Knox before long. Weakness, it turns out, is fatal even to the gods.
As Lind tipped the suitcase from his left hand to his right, his umbrella fell to the ground. He stared at it angrily for a moment before bending down to pick it up. A wizard was not supposed to seek help from mortal creatures, so he put on his own hat.
After all, why should I come calling like a whipped donkey today? The humidity made his bones crackle, and exhaustion made his muscles ache. The White Night War seemed like yesterday. In his dream, he also remembered the demon lord in a long skirt and the strange black magic in her hands. Lind's memory ends here, until Uriel wakes him up. His vision jumped from the stone steps of Fishbone Lane to the variegated carpet of Black Whale Apartment in the blink of an eye, which was not a pleasant experience.
I am not a professional demon hunter, he thought angrily. The power of the wizards of the school should have been enough to protect themselves on the battlefield, but the enemies they faced were beyond their limits. It's not his fault. Shania Ravenus was responsible for this, and as a result, the school left her in Knight's Bay and sent Lind back to Moniantoros. However, remembering these trivial things gave him a little more motivation to move forward. It was precisely in order not to lie stiff in bed like a dead man that he came to the church in the rain. The pros are waiting inside.
