(It’s a long chapter. There will be another update later which will be the protagonist’s attribute skill card. Please comment. Your comments are my daily motivation, haha.)
After walking around twice in the complex streets and alleys of the royal city, he found a deserted place. Between the gaps in the Void Blade Arm Armor, Wang Yu followed the spatial fluctuations and once again entered the space corridor that had been compressed sixteen times. .
He still couldn't quite understand the operating mechanism here. After walking for a while in the space built between void and reality, Wang Yu opened a door in the aisle next to him and walked inside.
Inside is a somewhat familiar office, which looks a bit similar to the one that Sieg usually stays in. However, this one is probably just similar in style and type. There are many details that are different from Sieg's personal characteristics. For example, it is a lot messy and also There are a lot of books missing, replaced by stacks of files tucked into paper bags.
Xiugeyin on the desk raised his head, looked at Wang Yu who walked in, pushed away the documents in his hand, and sat up straight.
"Here you come? You have made a lot of progress this winter. Judging from your physical strength, you are already a junior formal knight. The last person who made such rapid progress was probably the commander of the Imperial Army."
Xiugeyin glanced at Wang Yu twice. Xiugeyin, who had not seen him for nearly half the winter, quickly made a rough judgment on Wang Yu's level based on his rich experience.
"Well, the physical fitness level has been reached, but the fighting spirit has not changed, and the internal potential has not been born. It cannot be compared with that one."
Wang Yu knew that the commander-in-chief named Uler was a guy with extremely terrifying talent as a knight. How scary it was that for others, it took decades of hard work, but for him it was only a matter of one year.
"Garcia mentioned to me what's special about you. You solved your fighting spirit by yourself before, so I believe you can solve this problem now. If necessary, the library of Night Blade is open to you, but this You have to go to the professor, what I have here are files, what he has here are books and materials.”
"Thank you very much, so Captain Shugein, are you sure you want to introduce the faith of the Lady of the Night to the Edge of Night?"
"Well, this is the result of my discussion with Sieg. You also know that half of the Blades of Night have no faith, and half believe in the God of Light. As an extremely special god, he It does not exclude the belief in other gods, but you know, other religions still have great prejudices against the God of Light."
Wang Yu nodded. His evaluation of the believers of the God of Light has not changed much. In his opinion, these guys are ordinary but great existences. When these people shout for the God of Light, they may not be thinking about anything else. What a god of light, but the justice in front of you.
When the huge hammer of holy light hits the head of the evil person, they will know that the justice in the hearts of these big guys of the Light God is as heavy as their iron fist.
A large part of the reason why this winter is so calm is that Aleister's main faith is the Cult of Light. Other faiths are very rare in Aleister because of their own rejection of belief in the God of Light.
When the kingdom is invaded, even if these believers of the Light Cult are not members of the army, they will spontaneously join the war against foreign enemies.
However, the God of Light in the kingdom that invades other kingdoms will refuse to provide any magic or other help related to war. In the eyes of believers of the God of Light, defending their homeland is always just.
The short truce in winter gave these warriors of the Light Cult a chance to return to the royal city. To be honest, those thieves and robbers in the city would not want to be killed by a group of muscular men who jumped out of nowhere in the middle of their evil deeds. Surrounded.
However, most of the winter has passed, and the truce is coming to an end. After a winter of recuperation, most of the troops and believers of the Light Cult have regrouped and returned to the front line battlefield against Seventan.
The only one left in the city was a small force led by Garcia, who was a mobile team.
As for the Archbishop of the Illuminati Cult in Arestle, Fang Stuart, he has not returned to the royal city even this winter. However, it is difficult to define this person in terms of status, but he is definitely still with Sieg and Shugen. For the bishop above, it was probably the right choice not to return to the royal city where the undercurrent was surging.
"So after thinking about it, we hope to introduce new powers to the Night Blade. At the same time, after Zig went to the Church of Night and communicated with the incarnation of the Lady of the Night, he basically confirmed that the Lady of the Night can definitely be trusted. a god."
"Trustworthy? Captain, where did you come to this conclusion?" Wang Yu was a little confused. Although he thought Ms. Heiye was indeed trustworthy, he didn't know how Xiugeyin and the others came to this conclusion.
"He is special. The true identity of Lady Night is currently only Father Fang and I, Sieg. You know that he is the product of a certain plan of Seventan, right?"
"That's right." Wang Yu has not forgotten that the true identity of Ms. Night is the product of a plan that Seventon still has no answer to until now. Elfen, the God of Life, and the man who was killed by Shugein and Qi The "God of War" sealed and captured by Ge outside the royal city and the Lady of the Night have the same origin.
"Come, this is the emblem of the so-called God of War. You should be able to face these gods directly. You can take a look at the appearance of this god. You should be able to understand why Sieg and I both think Lady Night is special. "
Xiugeyin took out a divine emblem from the drawer of the table that was very familiar to Wang Yu. It was the same as the original divine emblem of Lady Night, except that what was depicted on the emblem was a naked upper body with arrows stuck in her back. The strong man, is this the God of War?
After receiving the medal, Wang Yu recited the content on the back of the medal with ease, "Praise to you, the Lord of War, the King of all Fighters, the Destroyer who brings endless fighting power, the God of War, Guy."
When Wang Yu finished reciting this prayer directed to the so-called God of War Guy, similar to when he saw the goddess of night, there was something more inside his mental space, but in terms of feeling, it was a little bit like Lady of the Night. difference.
Closing his eyes and returning his mind to the lake under the bright starry sky, Wang Yu looked into the distance. In the distance, there was a huge and twisted thing. It was a mountain of flesh, a wriggling and twisted mountain of flesh. On this creeping living mountain, one can see armor, battle flags, sword blades, bows and arrows, ballistas, wands and other chaotic and terrifying weapons.
This mountain of flesh is not made of simple flesh and blood, but the bodies of countless soldiers and even war horses. These armored warriors piled up to form this twisted existence. The flesh and blood melted and bonded to the armor, and the flesh and blood covered the armor. It is bonded to the appearance of the sword and the armor and flesh next to it.
The bones are separated from the body and mixed inside this chaotic flesh and blood. You can see that the bottom layer of this mountain of flesh is white, and it is countless skulls. The way this mountain of flesh moves seems to be through the rolling of these skulls. .
Some of the soldiers sewn into the mountain seemed to still have some "activity". The boneless muscles squirmed and tried to break away from the adhesion between the armor and other soldiers. As a result, the fragile bodies shattered and fractured, and the disgusting and molten bodies fell from the mountain. , fell into mud on the ground, was run over by countless skulls and then sucked into it.
No one can escape from this horrific "war". This Shura hell is an eternal prison, and even the dead cannot escape. This reminded Wang Yu of an existence he had seen before, the Ossuary Hall...
"Is it the embodiment of war? He has completely lost himself. He is very powerful, much more powerful than me. However, this does not make any sense..." Ms. Heiye appeared beside Wang Yu at some unknown time and looked towards I saw the meat mountain in the distance that was a little blurry for some reason.
"Is he the God of War Guy? The battlefield of mountains of corpses and seas of blood really looks like war."
"Yes, he used to be the one with the most faith among the people of Seventan. During armed fights between villages, people often prayed for his blessings."
"And as long as it is a war, no matter how big or small, no matter when and where, He will not refuse anyone who comes. If you ask, He will give it. So it often happens that until the end of the fight, everyone else on both sides has fallen, and only the God of War Gai is left. Believers in Yi, believers from different villages fight each other.”
"..." Wang Yu thought about it for a moment. It was quite picturesque, and he wanted to laugh a little. However, when he looked at the wriggling meat mountain in the distance that twisted and squirmed as if it were the embodiment of the concept of "war", Wang Yu didn't think so. Smiling, a little sad. Is Elfin the same? Sevetan, what on earth do you want to do, twist your own gods?
"So, Darkness, do you have any objections to letting the Night Blade take you as a believer?" Since Lady Night happens to be here, let's ask Sieg and the professor to let the Night Lady serve as the Night Blade. Is He willing to have a new faith?
When Wang Yu saw the twisted appearance of the God of War Guy, he already understood why Sieg and Shuge believed that the Lady of the Night was special and could be used as a belief. The group of abnormal gods created by Seventan , it is impossible to communicate normally with Lady of the Night.
"There is no problem. It is their freedom whether they believe in me or not. Being able to see what these different people do and observe their life trajectories is something that is very close to the concept of human "happiness" to me, so, It would also be a good thing for me to have more believers.”
"Of course I have to thank you again, my friend. If you hadn't killed those three goblins at that time, I would have been as twisted as them."
Lady Night answered Wang Yu's question with a slightly smiling voice. Wang Yu also expected that this god who loved to observe human life and would be satisfied if his believers lived well would not refuse such a request.
"You're welcome. You helped me a lot. So, bye."
"goodbye."
His consciousness returned to reality, Wang Yu nodded, indicating that he had seen the twisted God of War, "I understand, Ms. Night is indeed special. I also asked her opinion about the Blade of Night. There is no rejection as an object of faith.”
"Doesn't He reject being co-believed in the God of Light?" Shugeyin asked this question that made it impossible to realize the belief in dual gods.
"It's not exclusive. Compared to God, I even think that Lady of the Night is closer to a special and powerful human being. She will never reject the belief in the God of Light."
It’s quite strange to think about it. The Church of Night and the Church of Light were two strange things, and they were mixed together to form one. I don’t know if it was the first dual-god faith in history.
"That's good, then we will place the statue of the Lady of the Night and the holy book you made in some places in the Blade of Night. Of course, as the archbishop of the Night Church, there will also be an additional amount of funds allocated. Here it is, how you use it depends on yourself."
"Well, but please don't reveal my identity as archbishop. Recently, major families have focused their attention on me. I felt their eyes on me on the way here. If this identity is exposed again, I'm afraid it will There's more trouble."
"There is nothing we can do about it... You also know the level of chaos within the royal city. Both Charles and Edward already have fixed forces and backgrounds. Only you can't find any forces behind them. As time goes by, your It is inevitable that they will pay attention to your growth, but I will keep your identity as Archbishop a secret."
Xiugeyin also knows that with the stalemate in the confrontation, the major families have focused their attention on places other than the existing strength. The Peak Blade of Night is such a place, and it may bring a lot of things in the future, some good and some bad. Bad.
"Okay, by the way, why did the Edge of Night introduce the power of Lady Night? She is not very powerful. You should have felt it during the process of suppressing and taking this so-called God of War into custody, including the God of Life Earl. Fen, the gap between these so-called gods and the real gods is absolutely huge."
Wang Yu thought of something. Lady Night can indeed simply lend her power to her followers. However, because her own power is not strong, she only has two abilities: night hiding and shadow movement, which are not considered powerful, and they also require Believers pray for a period of time to accumulate enough power of faith before they can use it, otherwise they may not be able to make ends meet.
This is not so necessary for the Blade of Night, an organization that has the royal city as logistical support. So what makes Shugeyin take the risk to introduce the belief of the Lady of the Night?
"The magic that can be obtained is indeed only a small part of the reason, the more important thing is this." Xiugeyin pointed to his head.
"Spirit?"
"Well, the main responsibility of the Night Blade is still to face things like the void. Although there is the "Darkness of the Sky" ceremony provided by the royal family, the spirits of the members of the Night Blade still have to face a lot of pressure, and those who have faith 's members clearly have greater mental resistance to contamination."
"With most members of the Night Blade who believe in the God of Light heading to the frontline battlefields, the number of members of the Night Blade who suffered mental breakdowns and were sent to border sanatoriums this year is three times the number in previous years."
"So if we need some new beliefs to fill the vacancies of members who have faith, the faith of Lady of the Night is a very good choice. If we have the faith of Lady of the Night, we can share the pollution from the void to a great extent. This It was a great help to us.”
Xiugeyin explained why Lady Night's faith was introduced, which made Wang Yu stunned. The purpose of introducing faith was to share the pollution of the void?
It seems that this is indeed the case, including the God of War Guy, the God of Life Elfin, and the believers in the God of Light. They are indeed not easily contaminated by the void.
According to the knowledge Wang Yu has learned, it is very likely that due to the pollution of the void, a large part of it was transferred to the gods believed by the believers through the link between faith and believers, allowing the gods to bear this pollution on their behalf.
In other words, the Blade of Night introduces the belief of Lady of the Night, and even the main purpose is not the power of the Lady of the Night, but to let the Lady of the Night share the pollution from the void.
Recalling the twisted appearance of God of War Guy, could this be a change caused by being polluted? If the essence of so-called faith is pure utilization, can this thing still be called faith?
The only god Wang Yu knows is Lady Night. The others are either evil gods like the Immortal Lord, or people like Guy, the God of War, who are imprisoned in the abyss. Observing in his own spiritual space is all because of the fall into the abyss. The particularity of the bottom becomes a blur.
But it is obvious that Ms. Heiye is a very good god in Wang Yu's opinion. She cares about her believers and never requires believers to offer sacrifices or sacrifices. This goddess's rare hobby is to observe the lives of believers. Look what they are doing.
To take a step back, aside from the identity of Lady Night and God, they are still good friends. Shuge is a little unhappy because of this plan of use. Maybe not everyone can talk to gods like him, and he can understand Xiuge considered the idea because of Night Blade, but he could understand it, but that didn't mean Wang Yu could accept it.
Wang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, "Captain Xiugeyin, although I know this will be of great help to the Blade of Night, I still don't want to see the Blade of Night taking advantage of this premise to believe in Lady of the Night. This It won’t do any good to the Night Blade.”
Wang Yu looked into Xiugeyin's eyes seriously. Because of his understanding, he would not hesitate to express his dissatisfaction to this boss.
"As I said, Lady of the Night is more like a person, with faith based on utilization. I don't think this can be called faith. What I hope more is that Lady of the Night can become an ally of the Blade of the Night, rather than Cold use."
"So, Captain Shugeyin, I hope you can think carefully about what the Night Blade organization relies on to come together. Father Fang gave me the answer. This is why I particularly like this organization. "
Wang Yu finished this paragraph in a calm tone and was very serious.
"...You are right, go back first, I will consider this matter again." Xiugeyin was silent for two seconds, the emotions in his eyes were a bit complicated, and a trace of confusion could be seen.
"Yeah." Wang Yu didn't say anything more, closed the door and left the office.
After Wang Yu left, Xiugeyin let go of the state of composure he had been maintaining. He leaned tiredly on the wooden chair in front of the table and scratched his hair in confusion.
"Xuge Yin, when did you become like this..." He murmured a few words, feeling depressed in his heart. The recent chaos within the royal city and the pressure from all parties have indeed caused subtle changes in Xiuge Yin's mentality. , his way of doing things was getting closer to what he didn't like before, but he didn't notice it.
"Old man, is this the reason for you to leave...? I also feel it, but fortunately, at least your choice is quite correct. There is really something special about Wang Yu. He has always been quite sober. I feel sorry for him It seems that his trust is no longer because of you, but because of what he himself has done."
Xiugeyin looked at the light above his head and muttered something. His thoughts drifted a little far away. The picture in his mind was the strangely familiar arm armor on Wang Yu's hand when he opened the door.
…
After leaving the gap, Wang Yu shrugged his shoulders, hoping that Shugeyin could figure it out, otherwise he and Ms. Night would be ruined if they talked about the gods they believed in.
Walking out of the alley, Wang Yu raised his head in surprise. Some sounds were coming from outside the city. They were wolves howling one after another, one after another, continuously, coming from a distance and gradually spreading to all directions. The late winter Has the beast tide begun?
However, is the timing of this year's beast wave a little too early?
