Chapter 252: The Gathering of Souls (Part II)
The Sanctuary of Law.
Surrounded by a sea of trees and vines, the pure white hall is as harmonious and elegant as ever, and the long, long, three-person path stretches from the outside of the temple to the foot of the mountain for thousands of meters, and you can see that on this path, monks and believers in white robes are slowly walking forward, they clasp their hands on their chests, whisper prayers, and slowly walk towards the top of the mountain. It was the most ordinary day for the country of law. If you don't take into account the guests who are coming to this day.
The heavy door opened, and the sun shone into the sanctuary, so white that the spotless floor reflected a faint light. Brighten up the sanctuary once again.
Walking through the door was a woman in white armor who looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old, with waist-length hair that was as green as forest life, and swayed behind her with the woman's movements. The holy and beautiful face is as cold as ice, rejecting the coldness and seriousness of thousands of miles away. No matter who you are, after seeing such a face, you can't help but restrain your attitude and become serious. Those golden eyes were filled with the brilliance of the supreme rule and order. What is even more striking is the big sword that the woman is carrying behind her. It wasn't like that stout and huge two-handed sword. On the contrary, the long sword behind the woman is only about the same as a normal long sword on the surfaceβββ if you ignore its length.
Even if she was carrying this long sword diagonally, the hilt was about to touch the ground, this sword looked like it was two meters long, although the woman's figure was also very tall, but seeing this long sword, people couldn't help but be a little worried about how she would be able to pull out this long sword. But. This doesn't seem to be a problem at all for the woman in front of her. She walked into the sanctuary as quickly as she could, snapping her heels together like a soldier.
"Sister, I just received a report that representatives of the Night Nation, the Land of Light, and the Void Realm have set off. It is estimated that the Sanctuary of Order will be reached in two hours, and the preparations have been completed without any anomalies. β
Like a real soldier, the woman made a report neatly. But the answer to her was a little lazy, and it sounded as if she had just woken up in the warm sun, and had not yet had time to wake up with a soft and sweet voice.
"Oops......... Shigal, why be so serious, relax. It's been all these years. Aren't you tired if you're still like this? Okay, relax, come on, how about a cup of tea? I added your favorite honey to Higar, huh? β
"Sister-sama!!"
However, after hearing the other party's words, the originally serious woman couldn't help but reach out and hold her forehead, screaming like a scream. She glanced left and right, making sure there was no one else around her before stepping forward. Come to the high platform of the church, and be there. A figure identical to the woman in front of her was sitting at the table above, eating the sweet and delicious snacks on the plate in front of her, holding the teacup in her hand and showing a soft smile to the woman in front of her. Although the faces of the two men were almost identical, compared to the cold expression of the woman who carried the sword before, the young lady in front of her had a kind and gentle smile like a virgin. Just by looking at her smiling face, you will feel as if all your sins will be washed away, and you will feel more peace of mind than ever before. But now, seeing this scene in front of her, the woman with the long sword on her back only helplessly felt like she was about to cry.
"Sister-sama! Please refrain from stealing food. These snacks are for the guests, so how can you steal them! β
"Huh? But haven't they come yet? So let me get rid of these snacks first, anyway, there's something to prepare later, isn't it? Let's not talk about that, Shigger, do you want to come and eat with me? Anyway, they've already eaten it, so it's impossible to just serve it out to the guests. β
"Sister Nalaya!!"
Hearing the woman's words, Siegar shouted helplessly again, but in the face of his sister's anger, Nalaia was not a little nervous and afraid, but raised the plate in her hand with a smile, and put the snacks in front of Shigal as if offering treasure.
"Look, Higal, there's your favorite honey gingerbread? There's a lot of thick cream on it, so don't you really want to try it? β
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β
Facing the sister in front of him, Xigel finally sighed helplessly, and then sat on the chair next to him weakly, and then stretched out his hand and picked up a small piece of gingerbread from the plate, while Nalaia next to him watched with shining eyes as his sister picked up the gingerbread and put it in his mouth, then he put down the plate in his hand with a grin.
"In this way, Higal and I are accomplices."
"So, do you need me to adjudicate the crimes of the two of us?"
Shigal glared at Nalaya in a huff, but finally didn't say anything, but picked up the teacup next to him.
"Sister, I hope you don't get so confused this time, this time the Holy Book of Order is not the same as before, we will not only face the messenger of light and darkness, but also the Void Dragon we have never met. Can you get some heart? Now that the Night Country's attack on the Land of Light failed, the relationship between the major countries has begun to become less stable, and according to intelligence, there is also chaos mixed in, if we can't properly host this holy scripture, then I don't know what will happen next! β
"Of course I know that, but what, Shigal, you're already nervous, if you're so serious. Things that could have been talked about have become less talkative. Everyone should sit together in harmony and drink tea and chat. After all, we're not in a courtroom right now, so there's no need to be so unsettling. Moreover, I believe that everyone is a good boy, as long as you communicate well, then there will be no problem. β
"Hahh..............."
Siegal didn't know how many times he had reached out to hold his forehead. Since she was sensible, this has almost become a habitual action for her. Obviously, as a twin dragon of judgment, Nalaia should be more decisive, but she is always so confused on weekdays, everything is casually vague, and sometimes she even knows the law and breaks the lawβββ fortunately it is just a trivial matter such as stealing snacks and other things that are not elegant, otherwise where will the face of the twin dragons who have been rumored to be judged and adjudicated by them go?
It's been so many years, why doesn't my sister still have any consciousness of being a judge?
"I don't know what to do with others, but this Void Dragon is definitely not an ordinary person, sister, I hope you can cheer up a little. I'm sure you've read his report as well. Don't you think he's a very dangerous person? β
When it comes to the information of the dragon soul inheritor, I'm afraid there is no dragon soul inheritor on this continent who is more detailed than Rhode. Although the experience before that was a bunch of mysteries. But it has only been less than two years since he appeared in Moon, and the intelligence network with the strength of major organizations is not a secret at all if you really want to know about it. Of course, there is a lot of doubtful news mixed in, it is better to build a fortress in one day......... Although from the perspective of common sense, even inviting a few archmages cannot do this, if you just look at the evidence, there is no way to erase this possibility.
The intricacies of information only make this man's background more and more vague and incomprehensible. It seems that he had long foreseen the surprise attack of the Night Nation, prepared for battle in advance, and blocked the attack of the undead army twice in a row. Completely defeated the attack of the Night Nation. With two young people who don't talk like words, but who have stepped into the roots of the inner ring, powerful spellcaster girls as subordinates. And there are even elves from the Seven Illusion Realms around him. In addition, the angels and demons around him, as well as the white elves who once thought they had completely perished in the world, are also enough to remind people of a lot. Alone and his subordinates went to the Chaos Land to expand his territory, when he first learned about this, many people ridiculed him for his whimsy, and some even thought that Rhodes was carried away by a series of victories and began to think of self-defeating ideas. But reality slapped them in the face, the land of chaos was perfectly explored, and at the same time, the Void Dragon Soul, which had long disappeared in the long river of history, also reappeared.
Who was that young man?
This question is now almost the biggest mystery in the minds of the leaders of the major powers. Although it is easy to get the answer from the results backwards, this answer is simply incomprehensible and unacceptable to them, because it is so incredible.
"The balance between the Land of Light and the Land of Night is delicate right now. In the past, there was still our Law Kingdom suppressing it, but now, with the emergence of the Void Domain, I am afraid that the strategic balance will be broken. To make matters worse, I've heard that the Void Dragon doesn't have a good opinion of the Land of Light. β
It can brutally slaughter the most elite magic forces under the Council of Light in front of the dragon soul of light, and can also wipe out the opponent. From this point of view, as long as the eyes are not blind, they all know what Rodrod's opinion of the Council of Light. Not to mention the feud that started in Highland City just a few days ago, and the tens of thousands of soldiers of the Frontier Legion who were then slaughtered by Tiny Bubblegum and Canary, an entire Frontier Legion was forcibly dispersed. If you change to another place, I'm afraid it will really never die.
Thinking of this, Shigal pressed his forehead again. The main content of this temple is to confirm and acknowledge the birth of the fifth creation dragon soul, but in addition to this, Shigal also hopes to warn Rhodes not to be too aggressive about the Land of Light. However, when she carefully recalled the previous practice of the Genesis Dragon Soul, she was very skeptical that her advice was effective.
But soon, Higal put down his hand, and his face, which had been slightly distressed, regained its original seriousness and seriousness.
"Sister, it's time for us to get ready." (To be continued......)
