Devil’s Son-in-Law

Chapter 625: Black Dead and Black Pot (First)

Three days later, Chen Rui and Paul left together the dragon emperor, Yerodisha.

Unlike the highlights of the arrival, this time it was a light car, and the two departed at night. It's just that Yerodisha's nightlife is very rich, and a lot of people still see Paul along the way, which is inevitable.

Despite the smaller sound of the discussion and the faster speed of the horses, Paul's ears made it clear that his face was shallower and he squeezed the rope in his hand.

They passed the inner city and outer city inventory, and after leaving the city, Paul almost lashed out and rode, as if to vent his anger, and the speed slowed down until around the suburbs.

“Lord Paul!” Chen Rui revealed his strength and the horse followed him from behind.

Paul's breathing was a little heavy and his fingers holding his fist were white: "Richard, am I a loser? ”

“Life cannot go smoothly, losers, all kinds of setbacks and difficulties will be part of our lives, but as long as we do not give up hope, any setbacks will be defeated by us, and the truly successful will rise from countless setbacks and failures. Being able to stand up, at least half as successful, will never succeed if it falls. ”

Chen Rui urged him to ride alongside Paul, revealing a smile: “At least, the adult has been half successful. ”

Paul breathed well and felt the fighting spirit burn again, nodding his head: “I'm glad to have a follower like you and a true friend like a mentor. I regret not listening to your advice before... Rest assured, this time I will truly stand up and be a Templar Knight! Then we will return to Yerodisha! It will also help you fulfill your wishes! ”

“I'm relieved.” Chen Rui double-handedly said, "I'm sure the grownups won't let me down. ”

Paul didn't know the true meaning of the phrase and continued to rush forward. This time, normal speed had been restored. Chen Rui looked back at the “sparkling treasure” with the light on his back and pressed down his unnamed emotions - this time leaving, he should not come back.

“Home” is fine, “father” is fine, those blue eyes are fine, after all, he is just in a hurry, he is Chen Rui and does not belong here.

“Drive!” Chen Rui turned his head and shook the rope, catching up with Paul in front.

The two returned this time on their way to Longtooth City. Because there is a single portal directly to the White Cliff in the Light Palace of Longtooth City.

Conveyor gates and conveyor arrays are similar principles of water system magic, and the number of conveyors is affected by magic and energy, with corresponding limitations. This single portal is only inaccessible and is not open to the public and can only be used with special permission.

Though Longtooth City is only the border city of the Longhuang Empire, it is far more powerful than Katon City or even King Yang. In fact, Longhuang Emperor Yerodisha did not set up the Hall of Light, and Chen Rui guessed a few points from Rex's duel to shuffle the cards this time.

“Sovereign God grants” is a universal means of deification of the authoritarian system of the human monarchy. It is natural and rational to proclaim that the power of the emperor is given by God. Any rebellion, even rebellion, is a blasphemy against the gods. Yet there is always an irreversible contradiction between ostensibly coordinated monarchy and divine power in the Temple of Light, a special institution representing the supreme divine power.

This contradiction is particularly pronounced in the two great divine empires, the Dragon King or the Blue Yaw, which, on the one hand, require the name of God to consolidate their rule and strengthen their power; on the other hand, the water can be carried over, while the emperors are deeply constrained by the divine power that can prevail over their sovereign power, even viewing it as the greatest threat, or exerting all kinds of repression, either explicitly or implicitly.

It is in this contradictory chapter of development that the pages of the history of the human world have been opened, and the exact timing of the appearance of the Temple of Light has become unthinkable, but it is noteworthy that for countless years the Temple of Light has stood irrespective of the rise and fall of empires or kingdoms.

Pastor Adora of the Hall of Light in Longtooth City is familiar with Paul and has come to greet him personally at the gate.

“Lord Adora,” Paul looked at the Hall of Light ten times more alert than before, "it's already night, or is this a state of alert, is something big going on? ”

Adora nodded, looked at Chen Rui, and Paul smiled slightly: “Lord Adora, let me introduce you, this is my most loyal follower and my most trusted friend Richard, the Alternate Light Knight, who will follow me to the White Cliff for the Temple Knight selection. There is nothing to hide from, please tell me straight away. ”

Chen Rui's eyes revealed a touching divine colour, but his heart was disdainful of Paul's means of buying people's hearts: how can he truly believe in someone other than himself if he is willing to kill his beloved woman in his own hands for the sake of profit? “Richard” 's wealth and status are of considerable value to Paul's future plans, and he is now demonstrating his rare loyalty, so Paul needs to grasp this talent. Paul would not hesitate to abandon Richard once his value was exhausted or if he had a higher interest at his expense.

Adora glanced more at Chen Rui, nodded, and lowered her voice: “The Black Dead have appeared, and this time the blatant and heinous, the black hand has reached the king of the kingdom of Yangtze. There must be a tremendous conspiracy to emerge during this sensitive period of selection of the Temple Knight. At present, the White Cliff side has launched an emergency response. Not only have a large number of Light Knights been dispatched, but Judge Hughes himself led the referee to the Yangtze King to investigate and clean up the Black Dead. The nearby kingdom or the Empire's Light Palace are all on full alert. The distance between Longtooth City and the Yangtze Kingdom is not too far away, so we are also fully guarded here."

Black Dead? This strange name stunned Chen Rui. From the look and words of Adora, the black dead should be a force opposed to the Church of Light, and the movement is hidden, unknown to ordinary people, and regarded by the Church as a great enemy.

I had no idea that there were bright churches in the terrestrial world that covered almost all of humanity's faiths, and there were rivals like that.

“Faith debilitation was discovered in the Yangtze King, and the referee has found that the actual source should have been Gudan Town, then Katon Town, then Yangtze King,” Speaking of the black dead, Adora put a smile on her face and revealed herself: “Right, didn't you and Miss Eliza get assassinated in Katon Town? Even the priest of Gudan town, Mana, was killed in the assassination. There must be a close relationship between the Dagger Brotherhood and the Black Dead. Lord Hughes has ordered the elimination of the Dagger Brotherhood, believing that it will soon be uprooted. It's not too early. You can rest here for one night. I'll take you to the portal in the morning. ”

Paul nodded: "Then there's Lord Lauadora. ”

Chen Rui and Paul were arranged to rest in the room and Adora gave Paul a number of gifts. In fact, the Reverend heard the news of Paul's duel failure in the Emperor's duel the first time, but did not mention it, but rather was very polite. Once Paul becomes the Temple Knight of the Holy Mountain, his rank is above that of the head of the city church, and it is likely that he will have an impact on personnel changes in the near future. Although Adora also has her own background, however, it is certainly correct to have a good relationship ahead of time.

After Adora left, Chen Rui looked curious and asked, "Lord Paul, what exactly are the black dead? ”

“The Black Dead, a follower of a clandestine Church that worships darkness and destruction and is extremely enthusiastic, created the blood sacrifice to the evil gods 20,000 years ago to slaughter 10 cities, shocked the entire human world, which, although cleansed together by the Church of Light and all nations, has not been completely eliminated, but has turned to darkness and acted in greater secrecy, one of the most despicable enemies of the Church of Light and must be eradicated. But this church has disappeared in recent years. I don't know why.”

A sacrifice? Chen Ruiyin had a familiar feeling and turned his eyes and asked: "Since this secret church has disappeared, from what signs can the identity of these heathens be judged? Is it dark magic? When Pastor Mana and I were en route in a woodland, assassins attacked us with dark magic. ”

“It's not dark magic,” Paul muttered for a moment, lowering his voice: "It's a secret within the Church, I can tell you, but you must keep it a secret. The Dark Dead have become the most unscrupulous enemies of the Church of Light because they possess the power to blaspheme faith and to transform the faith of Light into the power of destruction and evil. ”

Chen Rui felt his heart beat a little fast, he heard Adora earlier that the route of "Gudan Town to Katon Town and then Yangtze Wangdu” felt a little strange, now he is finally certain - “the culprit” is not a black dead man, but Shuro!

This is actually a temporary start-up plan for Chen Rui, because the body incarnation has a wonderful connection to the body, even if it is far away, it can still transform the crystal of faith. When Chen Rui followed Paul out of Yangtze Wangdu, he retained Shuro as an incarnation. The goal was precisely the power of the faith in Wangdu's Hall of Light, and it was not until a few days ago that "food” was withdrawn.

I didn't expect to be detected so soon by the Church of Light. Good thing Shuro didn't follow Chen Rui all the time. Instead, the Yangtze King split up. Otherwise, if the route to steal the faith is perfectly consistent with the action of "Richard”, it will inevitably give rise to suspicion. Even more fortunately, the black dead exist in the human world, Tishuoro, carrying a big black pot for Richard.

Now that the power of faith is different things have been detected by the Church of Light, the wind of pursuit is tight, and Chen Rui is about to go to the nest of the Church of Light, Shuro should put aside for now, don't show up well.

Tomorrow, we will go to the White Cliff. Chen Ruiyin squeezed his fist tightly. This operation, Shedalay Flowers, is a must!
