Why did the lord rebel

Chapter 481 Chapter Please enter the cave

There was silence in the huge church hall.

Xia Houyan was dressed in a black robe, holding the silver handle of the "President Southern Military Affairs" command knife, standing silently, like a dangerous peak of ice and snow towering over the northern border.

As for Endric Thanatus, the chief priest of the Thin Burial Sect four hundred years ago, he was haunted by the relief painting of the God of Death on the screen wall of the church. Even the will-o'-the-wisps in the skull's eye sockets seemed a bit fake.

Thanatus, who had loyally served the god of death all his life and even transformed himself into a spirit to guard the bones of the main god after his death, would never believe that the god who held the supreme authority over death was the young black-haired human noble before him.

——However, the archmage-level elemental attainments he gained through hard training during his lifetime could not explain why his "Netherworld Bite", which was enough to scare even the holy mage, would happen after hitting the Duke of Frost Maple Ridge. Like a mud cow entering the sea, there is no response.

Thanatus, who had slightly awakened from the hazy feeling caused by eternal sleep, looked away from Xia Houyan and looked behind him:

A fair-skinned female swordsman stood with her sword raised, while a warrior covered in heavy black armor stood silently.

Thanatus has been dealing with necromancy for two lifetimes, and he naturally recognized them at a glance. They were both necromantic creatures driven by the black-haired young man in front of him;

However, the rhythm of the ghostly magic coming from them was extremely strange and mysterious, and its sense of oppression far exceeded any necromancer Thanatus had ever come into contact with.

The skeleton priest turned his attention to the Lord of Frost Maple Ridge in Yue Zhi Yuanting again.

For a moment, he even doubted whether during the four hundred years he had been sleeping, the Nether Magic of Haiwen Continent had made revolutionary progress, so much so that his "Nether Bite" had already affected the influence of this era. Magicians are ineffective, but the methods used by modern necromancers to control the undead have already been turned upside down?

——Tanatus would rather admit that the black-haired young man in front of him is an amazing genius of necromancy than admit that he is some bullshit "new god of death";

However, the legends of the phantom appearances of gods in history flashed before Thanatus's skull eyes like a revolving lantern.

When the god Haiwen comes to the world in person, he will indeed appear in various forms. If there is really a "new god of death", it is not impossible that he will take the form of a black-haired young man...

What's more, the prophecy said...

Thanatus made up his mind.

"I cannot confirm the identity of your Majesty." Thanatus' tone was still cold, but Xiahouyan noticed that he had used honorifics, "But gods have boundless power, and mortals will surely destroy themselves. Please. Come with me, if you really have the authority of the God of Death, you will naturally be able to obtain the remains of the main god safely - if you are just a person who deceives the world, hehe..."

After Thanatus finished speaking, without waiting for Xia Houyan to react, he raised his skeletal palm and shook it in the air.

There was a tooth-aching grinding sound.

Everyone looked around and saw that the stone brick that they had noticed before, from which the Netherworld magic power was continuously flowing out, had been slowly moved away under the control of Thanatus' magic power, revealing a narrow staircase leading underground.

As the stone bricks moved away, another larger and more intense ghostly magic suddenly burst out from this underground secret passage, almost overturning the magic shield jointly set up by the two magic masters, and shocked them out. Covered in cold sweat.

"Please follow me." Thanatusli ignored the two magicians, just nodded to Xia Houyan, and then entered the secret passage lightly.

Several Frost Maple Ridge horseboys watched helplessly as the back of Thanatus's torn robe disappeared into the darkness, and then all looked at the Lord.

"I, grandson, will come back as soon as I go." The lord winked and played an old Earth joke. Without saying a word, he followed Thanatus into the tunnel.

When Xiahou officials were hunting for treasures to take advantage of him and extort money from Qiu Feng, they always moved very quickly. Before the few horses could react, the guy had already disappeared.

Alice Comstock's expression tightened and she quickly took two steps forward. Just as she was about to follow the lord into the secret passage, she heard a loud noise - the stone brick removed by Thanatus seemed to have its own With average intelligence, as soon as Thanatus and Lord Lord passed by, they quickly bounced back to their original positions, firmly blocking out several members of the Frost Maple Ridge expedition team.

Alice was worried about the safety of her lord, and she quickly waved the "Light of the Sky" and slashed hard at the stone bricks. After the sound of gold and iron, not even a white mark was left on the ground.

"Stop trying. Victor and I have just spent a lot of effort and failed to remove this stone brick, and physical attacks are in vain." Master Molière smiled bitterly to dissuade Alice's ineffective attempt, "This place is extremely It’s weird, everything is soaked in the dark magic, and it can’t be judged by common sense.”

"This is like the realm of the Death God Priest..." Clement nodded dullly and said, "As long as he doesn't want to, I'm afraid no one can get through this secret door..."

Alice gritted her teeth and said:

"What about Elliot... what about the lord?" The female swordsman was always known for being calm and steady in Frost Maple Ridge, but now she was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. Not only was she shaking all over, but her head was covered with gold. The threads were all scattered. Although everyone knew something about the personal relationship between Captain Comstock and the Lord, Master Molière, who had just joined the Frost Maple Ridge revolutionary team, was still full of gossip and glanced sideways at the swordswoman. A glance at the scholar.

"Miss Comstock, please don't be anxious... Judging from the attitude of the skeleton priest towards our lord, it is not hostile. I think there will not be too much danger." Master Molière patiently advised.

Eldridge curled his lips and said in support: "That's right. Could it be that our boss, ah, is still afraid of an undead creature? I'm afraid he's not living in a dream..."

What Ai Shuai said does make sense. When everyone thought about the Lord's "special physique", they suddenly felt that for their boss, the intimidation and lethality of Endric Thanatus, the undead priest, might not be as good as learning about the Lord's "great achievements". "After that, Countess Isa Sandria came to the door with a pan.

"Speaking of which..." Master Lowry stroked his sparse beard and smacked his lips. "Back then, Bartholomew de Hash from Rock Creek City also said something about resurrecting the God of Death and the remains of the God of Death... He Damn it, why is Endric Thanatos related to the remains of the God of Death today?"

"I don't know the Bartholomew de Hashe you are talking about, but what happened today is indeed a bit evil." Master Molière said with a sad face, "You may not know it after staying in the south for a long time, but in the In the Central Plains near Thorn City, there have always been rumors about the God of Death..."

Master Laurie's ears stood up like a rabbit: "Rumor? What rumor?"

"You also know that the City of Thorns is the holy city of the human empire and the faith of the Holy God, right?" Master Molière received everyone's nods in response, carefully considering his words, "The reason is that the people who lived there one thousand two hundred years ago In the "War of Gods", your Supreme Holy God defeated the evil three pillar gods "Death", "Plague" and "Famine" in the sky above Thorn City, thereby winning the final victory in the War of Gods. Since then, this evil. The divine bodies of the three pillar gods were divided and sealed by the Supreme Holy God."

Similar legends were also told by Bartholomew de Hashe, and were not unfamiliar to Master Lowry and others.

But what Master Molière said next was a bit shocking:

"——The sacred ceremony of the Supreme Holy God sealing the evil three pillar gods was also held on the spot by the Supreme Holy God near Yanxi City. There is no written record of the situation when the three pillar gods were sealed, but it is still It was seen by the residents near Rock Creek City, and then passed down from generation to generation, and finally got into my ears... It is said that when the Supreme Holy God sealed the God of Plague and the God of Famine, everything went smoothly and there were no mistakes, except for the God of Death. An accident happened when...

"At that time, the divine power of these evil three pillar gods had been completely purified by the Supreme Holy God. Theoretically speaking, they had lost their divine heads and souls at this time and had no power to act anymore. They could only wait for the Supreme Holy God to seal their divine bodies again. However, just when the Supreme Holy God was about to decompose and seal the body of the God of Death, the body of the God of Death that should have been like an empty shell suddenly opened its decaying lips and faced the Supreme Holy God and the onlookers. Said something..."

Master Molière has been immersed in ACGN for a long time, and his story-telling tone is also fascinating, somewhat reminiscent of the legendary playwright Foster Folau of Haven. Master Laurie was so engrossed in listening that he almost forgot about the Lord's safety and asked hurriedly:

"What did Death say?"

"He said:..." Master Molière stretched out his fingers mysteriously and lowered his voice, "...'Today, although I am dead, I am still the God of Death!'"

Master Lowry and Eldridge looked at each other, feeling that the Lord had heard similar lines uttered by him before when he was walking on the Phoenix Stage.

Master Molière didn't know the thoughts of these two direct descendants of Shuangmangling, so he kept to himself and said:

"...Then, the God of Death used his last moment to swear a poisonous oath to the Supreme Holy God! He announced to the Supreme Holy God and the humans present that although he was about to fall, his successors would surely die in the 480th Kunji returned to Haiwen Continent after many years and completed sweet and great revenge on the Supreme Holy God! "

"Kunji Calendar" is a chronological method used in the ancient times of Haiwen Continent. It is mostly used in sacrifices, prayers and other occasions related to gods.

Master Lowry counted on his fingers; according to Master Molière, it was 1,200 years ago that the Supreme Holy God sealed the God of Death and the God of Death swore revenge. Counting from then on, 480 Kunji years later, Isn't that just...

"Don't forget, it's just the past few years." Master Molière interrupted Master Laurie's calculations gloomily, "No one knows the exact time when the 'War of the Gods' ended, but even if it is a rough estimate, the God of Death had The announced date of revenge is between the 990th year of the Imperial Calendar and the Millennium Year of the Imperial Calendar. In other words, if the God of Death didn't brag about it when he was about to burp, then his successors will still be able to do it in the next few years. It’s time to come to Haiwen Continent.”

Once Master Laurie figured this out, his face turned pale:

If nothing else, it’s because of the Lord’s miraculous performance in necromancy magic in the past few years, and his great achievements in leading the Igor family to rise against the odds and dominate the country...

It's his grandma's fault, and the timing is so coincidental, it can't really have anything to do with this Death's Revenge, right?

Seeing the uncertain expressions on the faces of several direct descendants of Shuangmaple Ridge, Master Molière tried to smooth things over with a wry smile:

"Forget it, these are just rumors that cannot be believed. Don't take it to heart. Now, I'm afraid we can only wait here for the lord to come out of the secret passage. I don't know about Endric either. ·What is Thanatus’ plan? But the lord has never been afraid of necromancy, so it’s not particularly dangerous.”

Everyone nodded in agreement, but Alice glanced worriedly at the stone bricks at the entrance of the secret passage.

"Lord, it may take a long time to get things done underground. The concentration of ghost magic in this church is too strong. It's better for us to go out and wait." Master Molière suggested again, "Fortunately, we came to Hesse Mire this time. , we have brought enough dry food and sleeping bags, even if we wait for two or three days..."

However, no one thought that the wait would last for half a month.
