The Continent of Mycrove, the Southern Seas, the Far Seas of the Frontier. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The endless expanse of the blue sea in the south is covered with clouds and storms all day long, as if rejecting all outsiders.

But in the midst of the churning whirlpools and tides, there stood a gray-white island, hidden in the mist and waves, so impregnable that the raging waves beat at the rocks on its cliffs.

In the legends of the sea people, this is not the true face of the gray island, if one day, the storm of the far sea ceases and the clouds disperse, then in the surging waves, there will be a pure white and immaculate mountain, towering to the top and protruding into the sky, obscured by white clouds.

Church of the Seven Gods, the Holy Mountain of the Far Sea.

The Grey Island, called Edda, is almost surrounded by cliffs, and in front of its only estuary is a huge white stone tablet with several large characters as bright red as fire

'Where faith goes, the storm stops'

On Ash Island, there are many white buildings and shrines, and tens of thousands of residents live here, all of whom are priests of the Church of the Seven Gods, trained or in the service of the trainers.

Some people were born here, and will die here, and new people continue to come here to be tempered by faith, and then become a qualified priest to return to the mainland, fight evil, expel diseases, and many old people return here to spend their old age in peace after a lifetime of hard work, enjoying the tranquility of the Holy Land.

As the place where all the beliefs of the human race in the world converge, the gray island is shrouded in a strong and incomparable power of holy light all day long, under this light, all evil can not be approached, there is no place to hide, and the eyes of the seven gods of mankind are forever watching here.

And in the central sanctum, the teleportation hub.

With a burst of silvery-white flashes, a bloodied knight stepped out of the teleportation array.

His armor was covered with scars, acid and traces left by various strange attacks, and under the purification of the power of the Holy Light on the Gray Island, the knight let out a painful, but somewhat reassuring groan, and countless black qi emerged from his wounds and armor, and then was purified inch by inch, turning into nothingness.

After resting for a while and regaining a little strength, the knight silently passed through the barrier of the temple guards, refusing the squire's request to change his armor and clean his body, and he marched all the way through the buildings on the Gray Island, as if he wanted to use his filthy body to walk up the most holy mountain hidden in the clouds.

Legend has it that seven days and seven nights can only set foot on the sacred mountain at the top.

The guards and attendants on the road seemed to know the knight, and they hesitated to look at each other, not knowing whether to stop them, but before they hesitated, the knight had already ascended the sacred mountain.

The pure white mountain was like a sharp sword, reaching into the depths of the cumulus clouds, lightning rushing through its mountainside, thunder bursting beside it.

The knight looked up at the mountain, paused slightly, and no matter how many times he looked at it, he could not help but be amazed by its majesty and precipitousness.

But now was not the time to stand still, and the knight shook his head and stepped on the long staircase that led to the top of the mountain, which had countless steps, each of which was made of pure white solid stone, and on either side of this long staircase were countless gray arches, ring after ring, like a long chain that winded endlessly.

In the holy mountain, there is a myriad of faith and holy light converged into a lock, no power of order or holy light, people will be blocked by it, time and space will be distorted, so that he will never go to the goal, only with faith, can find the true way, this is the truth that seven days and seven nights of walking can reach the top of the mountain.

How devout are the knights' beliefs? He didn't stand in any way and ran like a sharp arrow towards the top of the mountain.

Along the way, he passed the statues of the relics of the Seven Gods, the black ring of the God of Justice and Power, the withered heart of the God of Love and Decay, the Ouroboros of the God of Order and Destruction, the Thorn Bird of the God of Law and Freedom, the Hammer Book of the God of Protection and Change, the Bifurcated Eye of the God of Wisdom and Choice, and the bones, dirt and grass of the God of Life.

The knight had no respect for the statues of these holy relics, and only when faced with the holy relics of the god of life, he paused slightly, bowed his head, and expressed his respect.

At last, he crossed the clouds, pierced through the fog and lightning, and came to the top of the sacred mountain, a temple that was eternally illuminated by the sun, the moon, and the stars.

At the door of the temple, there are countless guards wearing gold and white robes, unlike those guards under the mountain, although they know this knight, but they will not back down, but will step forward to stop him together, these guards apologize, but do not hesitate, they did not use weapons, but reached out and grabbed the knight's body, hindering his progress, as if to take him away from here.

But the knight's body was as unshakable as a mountain, and he allowed the guards to cling to his armor and hands and feet, and the holy light flashed all over his body, and no one could stop him, and the knight was silent, step by step, with an unstoppable momentum, and all the guards were left behind by a gentle but powerful force, and for a moment they could not get up.

With a firm footstep, he entered the temple.

On either side of the temple's majestic arches stand statues of the ancient guardians of the sacred mountain, armed with swords and shields, and with resolute expressions, who seem to have been guarding the place until the end of time.

And above the arch, there is a clear line of writing.

'Lonely sun, double moon, endless stars, the origin of a thousand years, only the light lasts forever'

In the depths of this temple, at the end of the arcade, an old man with white hair and golden eyes, wearing a holy silver crown and holding a pure white scepter sat on his seat, as if waiting for the arrival of the knight.

"Loranda, you're here."

The old man with a kind face seemed to know what was going on down the mountain, he didn't stop the knight's advance, and even let the guards behind the knight who were about to continue to stop retreat, he didn't seem to be angry about the knight's forcible entry into the temple, the old man said gently to the knight named Loranda: "If you want to enter the holy mountain, you don't need to force your way at all, why is that." ”

The old man was dressed in a simple white robe, with ancient lines on it, but the scepter in his hand and the crown on his head flowed with a strong light that was so rich that people couldn't breathe, and the white chair he sat on looked simple, but it was actually carved from rare holy white crystal, and the sunlight fell from the skylight of the temple, shining in front of him, flashing with endless power of order holy light.

Facing the old man, the knight took a deep breath, and the wounds on his body quickly healed under the healing power deliberately exuded by the old man, scarred and disappeared.

But even so, his breath trembled, as if he was suppressing his anger, in stark contrast to the unstoppable momentum he had before.

"Godfather Eagle...... Vichy died. ”

After a long time, the knight's breathing calmed, but it was very heavy: "My comrade-in-arms, with whom I grew up and saved me several times, is dead. ”

"Yes."

After a moment of silence, the old man named Eagle shook his head, his voice was still gentle, but it contained a trace of calm to cold tone: "Although I can comfort you and relieve your sorrow, but Loranda, as the strongest knight of the younger generation of the church, should have known that there will always be sacrifices in battle, not to mention that the one who fights with you is the most evil thing from other worlds, the Chaos Clan. ”

"In the face of this kind of existence, death is normal, not everyone is as strong as you."

Eagle said, as if seeing everything: "I thought you were used to it. ”

"Your Excellency, no one will get used to this kind of thing!"

The knight said angrily, he took off his helmet covered with brown blood scabs, revealing his white blonde hair and resolute and handsome face, and his blue eyes revealed real anger, the marble statue of the knight with an angry face, and said loudly to his godfather, the pope of the church: "Vichy is dead, and so is Greer, my elders, my friends, and many comrades-in-arms, they are all dead. ”

"I have been adopted and taught by you since I was a child, my faith is pious, I have been working hard to learn martial arts, in the Temple of Heaven, I swear to protect this world, and fight against all evil, although I have only survived in this world for twenty-seven years, but I have not wasted a moment in these twenty-seven years, but completely dedicated to the gods and humans!"

Loranda's voice suddenly rose, he frowned, and said loudly to the old man in front of him: "Since my martial arts have been successful, I have been in the plague land of the West Mountain, fighting hard against those evil things, fulfilling my duties, my heart is extremely enthusiastic, even if I am close to death several times, I have never doubted my faith, but! ”

At this, his voice slowed down, as if forced out between his teeth: "...... All of them are dead, there have been five changes of people around me, they are all dead, whoever is the best knight of the church, their future is extremely bright, many, many ...... I thought I could endure it, but in the end, I realized that my heart was not indestructible. ”

"The death of Vichy made me wonder at last the meaning of my oath, and the meaning of the battle—after this battle, I thought about it for a long time."

Speaking of this, Loranda's voice returned to calm, and he said to the old man who had been silent until now, with an expressionless face: "Lord Godfather, Lord Pope, I don't understand, whether it is the plague land in the West Mountain, or the suppression land in the northern land of the Northern Empire, what is the meaning of letting these chaotic tumors cling to our world?" ”

“…… Flowers bloom and need to cling to the soil, and rootless pings also need to float in rivers. ”

After listening to his godson's question, Eagle thought for a while, and then replied softly: "Just as people need food and fire need firewood, if the world of order is to be maintained, it can only rely on the burning of chaos as the source. ”

"The fire was dumped thousands of years ago, and without these tumors as a source of firewood, the fire on the Microf continent would have been extinguished long ago."

In a few words, the old man told the truth of the matter, but the knight was full of doubts and troubled, although he knew that his godfather had not deceived him and gave a true answer, but he did not understand this.

Seeing Loranda's expression, Eagle smiled slightly, he shook his head and said, "I have already given an explanation, my child, you really can't understand this now, it's too early...... The twenty-seven-year-old golden peak, although it is very strong, but it still has not entered the extreme intention, has not reached the extreme intention, and the cause and process of these things tell you, and it does not make any sense. ”

"How could it be pointless!"

Hearing Iger's words, Lolanda couldn't help but retort: "Godfather, you raised me who lost my parents due to political struggles, although you are not my parents, but you are better than this, but you are always so mysterious and refuse to tell any truth!" ”

"The Plague Land, with your strength, you can be completely eliminated a long time ago, the power of the legend is equal to the gods walking in the world, even if you can't clear it, you can completely close the gate of time and space, and completely seal the plague land, just like the legendary archmage of the Kaos family four hundred years ago in the Northern Empire! But you don't do anything, just let us fill this bottomless pit with human lives! ”

"It's sealed, there will be other sources, although the space-time gate of the Northland is sealed, there are still remnants, and the cost is not proportional to the cost, do you know what Kabbalah Kaos paid to carry out the ...... Alas. ”

Suddenly sighed, the old man was excited, he said slowly: "Iger, you don't understand, there are some things that you can't do if you want to, the plague land, now you must stay, the only thing you can do is to become stronger in the battle, and not let the sacrifices of your comrades be in vain, only after you become the next pope of the Seven Gods Church and the heir of the Sage." ”

He paused for a moment, then said word for word to the knight:

"Then you'll know the truth."

Lolanda seemed to want to refute, but the pure white scepter in Iger's hand suddenly began to glow.

Their eyes fixed on the scepter, watching the light flicker and flow like breath.

"Aha."

The old man laughed, and the wrinkles on his face were slightly upturned, looking like genuine joy.

The knight watched quietly, amazed in his heart, and he knew that his godfather, although kind, had not smiled so happily for a long time.

After the joy, there was silence.

"Let's go to the Northlands."

Eagle suddenly spoke and said to the knight, his expression not like a joke, but serious: "I can't tell you anything because of the oath, but if you really want to know what the truth is, then you can go to the Northland to have a look." ”

"There are people out there who are similar to me, and who will be like you in the future."

With that, the old man raised his scepter and motioned for the knight to stand aside.

Although Lolanda was puzzled, his anger had already been vented, and his heart was also thinking about what Eagle had said before, so the knight bowed and slowly retreated.

After the knight left, the old man sat on his crystal chair and quietly looked at the scepter in his hand.

At the top of the scepter, there was a faint flame shrouded in countless auras, burning slowly. (To be continued.) )
