Chapter 58 Past Memories and Messengers
The castle wrapped in the mountains and green forests is so peaceful and beautiful. **wa lives in that castle.
The young girl does not know her identity or where she is. But she has parents who love her and servants who take care of her. All of this is a dream called happiness for the girl, as if all the beauty in the world is condensed here. The girl even feels that she has obtained eternal happiness.
However, that only lasts until the girl’s birthday.
Everything changed since that day.
At the birthday party where the girl received blessings and praises, her sister who had loved her and loved her suddenly fell down and died soon after.
Immediately afterwards, death began to spread rapidly.
Not only inside the castle, but also inside the territory outside the castle, this disease was also spread. Many people fell to the ground and died, and no one knew what was going on. The entire territory was filled with a sense of panic, and no one knew what it was. Since people lived here, they had never encountered such a terrible death disease, and they didn't even have time to be saved. They closed their eyes forever.
From that day on, the girl's life fell from heaven to hell.
The parents who originally loved her slowly stopped appearing, and they rarely heard the warm laughter of the past. The girl was locked in her room more often, and could only look at the scenery outside through the window bored. Gradually, the girl found that the sisters who were originally taking care of her and began to avoid her. They no longer played with the girl like before, and even when they were delivering food, they put them down and left immediately, as if the girl was a terrible beast.
Even so, the girl had no doubts. The long-term education made the girl never experience the dark side of human nature. She still naively thought that she had done something wrong, so her parents and the sisters who took care of her loved her were less and less disliked herself. So the girl began to work hard to save everything she had lost. She studied harder than before and tried harder to show her good side. But none of these could save everything she had lost. Her father hadn't seen her for a long time, and even her mother occasionally looked at the girl outside the door through the small hole in the door. All this made the girl at a loss. She had no idea what she had done wrong and why her parents no longer came to see her like before.
Until the end of summer that year.
One day, the mother who had not appeared for a long time suddenly appeared in the girl's room, which surprised the girl. However, she did not expect that her mother would push herself into a huge suitcase and lock her up.
Just when the girl had not yet fully realized what happened, her father's voice suddenly appeared, unlike the gentle and serious voice in daily life, this time her voice was filled with the rage and terror that the girl had never heard of. He began to argue with his mother, and the gentle mother in the past became more violent at this moment.
While listening to the quarrel between her parents, the girl finally figured out the whole story. It turned out that more and more residents died in the territory could not be cured. There have been rumors that the girl was the root of all this. She was the incarnation of the evil demon and came here to spread death, death and disease. At first, her parents were not willing to believe that her beautiful and lovely daughter would be the incarnation of the demon. But gradually, even the people in the castle began to doubt, and until the end, the father could not avoid being affected by the rumors. After all, this terrible disease was infected from time to time even in the castle, and the first one to die of illness was the girl's sister. But the girl showed no sign of being infected at all, which would naturally arouse the father's suspicion. The mother firmly did not believe this rumor. She refuted her father's absurdity and tried her best to protect her daughter.
The quarrel outside began to escalate, and the girl could only curl up in a big dark box in fear, trembling and waiting for the end of the quarrel. However, the voice became louder and louder, and finally ended with a sharp scream.
The father cursed and cursed and left the room. The girl did not hear her mother's voice at all. She sobbed in a low voice, calling on her mother's name. Finally, the thick box lid was opened in a gap, and the mother's voice came from inside, which was a gentle voice as before, but it seemed extremely weak.
"Hide inside and don't come out, it's very dangerous outside. You must live, my dear daughter."
Then, the mother's voice disappeared, and the only gap closed again.
I don't know how long it took, but the girl in the dark wooden box could not bear the terrible darkness. She used all her strength to push open the lid and leave the wooden box. What first caught my eye was the mother's body that had already begun to rot.
The girl ran out of the room in horror and tried to call for help. But all she saw was the corpse. Those who were once familiar and unfamiliar, now fell to the ground in various postures. Most of their faces were dark, and the sticky body fluids made their faces dirty. There was no living life in the entire castle except the girl. Her father, the kind and serious man, also died in her study in the same way. This castle, which was filled with harmony and laughter, had now completely turned into a dead city.
No one can help the girl. The suspension bridge that was originally connected to the outside was also lifted high and blocked the only way out. The food had long rotten, and even the water was polluted. The floating on the outer moat was also dark green and scattered with a rotten smell. I don’t know what it was.
body.
Under such circumstances, the girl still remembered what her mother said to her last, although in this city of death, a castle full of corpses and stench, the girl could do nothing at all.
Autumn goes and winter comes.
The cold blocked the spread of the disease, and at this moment, the search team finally came to this city called the Dead City, they entered the castle and found the only survivor.
This was originally a fortunate thing, but everyone was shocked and afraid of the facts in front of them. Even the warriors who had been through many battles were trembling in front of such a terrible situation.
The rotten corpse was almost all bones left. But there were still many of them that had not yet completely disappeared, with traces of biting left. The only surviving girl was already naked at this moment. She relied on the rotten flesh covered with maggots.
Shuangzhen survived with a fierce water and strong force. The corpse in the castle was almost flat and she praised it. When the soldiers found her, the girl was lying next to her mother's body, devouring her flesh and blood.
The girl was quickly caught and locked up. Although she didn't know what she had given birth, everything at the moment was undoubtedly the great cause of the demon, so the fate of this girl who was terrified was decided.
The rough ground could still be felt under her. The pain of the hot iron imprinting on the girl's back was so strong. The girl, who was tightened by the iron chain, was dragged to the execution ground and to the front of thousands of people. She was hung up like a doll, listening to the strange judgment expressionlessly. Then, a ruthless spear pierced the girl's hands and feet, and laid her on the ground
superior.
Until this time, the girl saw her blood for the first time. The slowly flowing, bright red blood "as if attracted, the girl stuck out her tongue and licked the warm blood that she had flowed out.
Then, the huge axe fell and ended her life.
That day, a human girl named Angela Christie died completely.
"Um"
Angela opened her eyes and looked out the window. She reached her hand to the edge of her eyes, then wiped it, looking at the blood and tears flowing from the corners of her eyes. The bright red and obvious traces remained on her cheeks, and there was no intention of disappearing.
How long has it been since I recalled that time?
Angela frowned, and at the same time, she pressed her delicate body against the man beside her. Li Lin was still sleeping. He hugged the petite girl, as if she was a solid haven. Angela never thought that one day she would meet such a man and experience such a life. She got into Li Lin's arms and felt the unique warmth and slow heartbeat of humanity.
Do you regard Li Lin as a father-like attachment or as a lover-like attachment?
Angela never wanted to think about these boring and complicated things. She only knew poison. Only here can she feel what she had lost as a non-human self.
,,”
Touching Li Lin's broad chest, Anjie murmured softly, then closed her eyes again and fell into a deep sleep.
At this moment, in the temple under the moonlight, there is a different scene.
"Hello, Lord Valast."
The bishop in red walked out quickly and nodded to the tired Paladin.
"I'm so happy to see you arrive safely."
"I am honored to receive an invitation to attend this welcome ceremony, dear Bishop."
Although Valast looked tired, he still started to give in.
"Hope I'm not the last one to arrive."
"Of course not."
The bishop smiled slightly.
"Although I can see that you are already very tired, I hope you can attend the welcome ceremony immediately. Tonight, we are here to welcome an important guest."
"Important guest?"
Valast repeated it once with some curiosity.
"Excuse me
“He is the future of our temple and a very important figure for us. He is the essential pioneer and leader when we fight against darkness and evil.
Here, the bishop did not continue to say anything, and Valast nodded to the bishop without asking any more questions. Then he walked into the temple lobby. After entering the lobby, Valast soon realized something was wrong. As before, the moderates and radical paladins clearly formed two camps and gathered in the lobby. Most of the moderate paladins frowned. It seemed that there were a lot of things to do. However, the radical paladins were talking and laughing loudly and showed their spirit. Although they were always like this, I don’t know if it was an illusion. Valast always felt that they seemed to be very confident today.
"What happened?"
Thinking of this, Valast slowly walked into the crowd talking next to him and asked calmly.
"Captain Valast, you are finally here."
Seeing Valast arrive, the paladins' expressions became a little relaxed, but soon, their expressions darkened again.
"By the way, you don't know yet." I heard that the Archbishop of the Temple has elected the next Knight Chief."
"What?"
When Valast heard this, he was shocked.
Although there are knights in each temple to manage the Paladin. However, only the Knights Chief is unique to the main temple. The Knight Chief not only leads, but also governs all the Knights of the Temple. The figure at the top of the Paladin. However, because of this, it is very difficult to choose. Being the Knight Chief requires not only wisdom and strength, but also to be amazed at the blessings of the God of Justice. This is the most critical point. The Knight Chief is equivalent to the messenger of the God of Justice on earth. As long as it is the order given by him, no paladin can disobey.
This is of course a major matter, but
"And, I heard that this knight chief was born in the Northeast Diocese."
"I see."
After hearing the explanation from his colleagues, Valast quickly understood what they were worried about. Most of the Eastern diocese were territories of radicals, and their attitude towards evil and kindness was far more severe than those of the Southern diocese, so it was obviously not a good thing for the moderates to be the chief of the Knights.
I don’t know what kind of person the temple will send to serve as the chief of the Knights?
Just as Valast was thinking, the bishop had already walked up to the front, and he signaled everyone to be quiet, and then he spoke.
"I think everyone should understand why we gather here." That's right, our great God of Justice has descended on the divine metaphor. The new Knight Chief finally emerged again after 30 years of vacancy!"
As soon as this statement was spoken, it immediately caused a lot of discussion. After all, although everyone had received more or less corresponding news before, when the temple was officially confirmed, it still shocked them.
Faced with the discussions of the paladins below, the bishop did not say much, but instead touched his body and made way for the people behind him.
"So, please allow me to be honored to introduce to you, our new Knight Chief, His Excellency Serrat Heidson!" The latest chapter of the Lost Royal Power
