This brave man is a scumbag

Chapter 655 Disaster of Black Mist
December 15, 12 in the Age of War

The brave Zhou Li was attacked by the demon king Torea in the surveillance fortress. He was seriously injured, his soul was broken, and he was on the verge of death.

This news was announced by Twelve Quarters, and Twelve Quarters specifically marked Zhou Li's soul was on the verge of being broken because of the attack by the Demon King Torea.This time, Twelve Quarters did not launch any condemnation against Elma, but only stated that Zhou Li was seriously injured, hoping to send the Pope of the Church of Life to treat her.

Elma replied:

Refuse.

When Elma's reply was made public by Twelve Quarters, there was an uproar all over the world.For Elma, the people who have been captured by the offensive of public opinion have begun to think that she is an absurd monarch, a tyrant who frantically waged wars by fabricating imaginary enemies in order to consolidate his own rights.When the news of the appearance of the Demon Lord Torea was confirmed by Twelve Quarters, these people had changed their views on Elma, and began to doubt whether she was the real tyrant.However, this time, Elma refused to treat Zhou Li at Twelve Quarters, which directly caused public opinion to return to Twelve Quarters.

Everyone believed that Elma's refusal to allow Twelve Quarters to treat Zhou Li was to take back the military power in his hands.This can also explain why the demon king who has been determined by experts to have been eliminated reappears, and this is clearly Elma herself pretending to be.

This directly ignited the world's public opinion, and people began to regard Elma as a complete tyrant, absurd and non-toxic, eager for power, and ruthless at the same time.People's evaluation of Elma has reached the lowest point. At this moment, it only takes a little spark to detonate everything.

"Elma..."

Herring, who was already gray-haired, pushed open the heavy door. Behind the door, a coffin made of crystal was placed under the holy light.At this time, Elma was sitting aside, staring intently at the young man in the coffin.After hearing Herinen's voice, Elma didn't turn around, but just nodded slightly, indicating that she was listening.

"Muqi wants to see you."

In fact, there is not much age difference between Mr. Muqi and Herining, so the two have always been friends since they formed a joint empire with Elma.He looked at the exhausted and desolate girl in front of him, and his eyes couldn't help but feel distressed, "Elma, don't push yourself like this, twelve quarters...maybe there is nothing wrong."

"maybe."

Elma is no longer as firm as usual. Normally, once someone proposes to make peace with the Twelve Engraved Words, she will reject the other party's proposal with the most steadfast attitude.But this time, her tone was visibly looser, which made Herining unconsciously relieved.

"If there is no god, there is no cure for Zhou Li."

Elma stretched out her hand, her slender index finger slid across Zhou Li's cheek.At this time, Zhou Li's face was pale, with a peaceful smile on his face, as if silently welcoming death.But Elma could sense the soul that was struggling all the time under this nearly collapsed body.

The blow from Demon King Tolea didn't kill Zhou Li, or in other words, she kept her hand, just right.The damage she caused can only be healed by the Pope of the Church of Life, no, it should be said that the Goddess of Life can be healed.If the delay continues, Zhou Li will surely die of broken soul.

In this world, except for the goddess of life, no other person or god can do anything to the soul.After all, the power held by the Goddess of Life includes Xuan and Xuan's soul, so so far, no fewer than dozens of people have come to persuade Elma to join hands with the Church of Life to treat Zhou Li.But for some reason, every time Elma's answer is extremely decisive.

impossible.

Helining almost watched Elma and Zhou Li through these 20 years, and in the most difficult years, this stern but kind old man always accompanied them, just like their grandfather.The same is true for Mr. Muqi. As one of the few non-combat gods in the world, as a teacher, Mr. Muqi will always impart knowledge that benefits Zhou Li and Elma a lot.Therefore, in the hearts of Zhou Li and Elma, these two are relatives, like elders.

Therefore, after believing in Eluma again and again and supporting her unconditionally, Helining experienced Zhou Li's assassination.After getting along with each other over a long period of time, this intelligent and sensible young man with a sincere heart of equality has long been recognized and expected by him.Moreover, Heli Ning has always known that Zhou Li has always been in love with his deceased youngest daughter, so He Li Ning has long regarded Zhou Li as his own child.

But now, when Herrinen, who had lost his daughter, saw the boy who was almost dead in the coffin, his heart that had been hardened all his life also felt sour.He began to think that if Twelve Moments could really save Zhou Li, it wouldn't be a bad thing.

So, he contacted Mr. Muqi.He wants Mr. Mu Qi to persuade Elma to... think about Zhou Li.

Just when the old and the young fell silent, the door was opened again.Wearing a neat uniform, Mr. Mu Qi, whose appearance reveals a refined temperament, slowly walked into the room.He didn't greet Elma immediately, but walked up to Zhou Li, stretched out his hand, and gently covered his forehead.

"Soul collapse..."

After a while, Mr. Mu Qi withdrew his hand, with a thoughtful look on his face.Mr. Mu Qi on the side was a little anxious at this time, he didn't know why his old friend didn't go to persuade Elma, but checked Zhou Li's injuries.

"Sorry, Elma, I'm late."

The old man who has been collecting soil materials at the forefront of the war and analyzing the devil's breath looked at Elma and said apologetically, "I made you suffer."

"Fortunately."

Helining found that after Mr. Muqi appeared, Elma was obviously relieved, and her tense nerves were also relaxed.Just when Herining was puzzled, Mr. Muqi spoke.

"Can resist so much pressure that makes you succumb to the church of life, Elma, you are infinitely stronger than I imagined."

Mr. Muqi said these words in relief, and then he looked at Herinen, who was startled by the prophecy, and comforted him: "Old friend, don't worry."

"Can I not be in a hurry?!"

Herining stood up, frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Now Zhou Li's situation has become the most dangerous state, and if he continues to delay, his soul will suffer unavoidable trauma. Now, who but the Church of Life It cannot be cured!"

"You're right, no one can heal except the Church of Life."

With a snap of his fingers, an invisible barrier instantly enveloped the entire room.Seeing Helining who was a little shocked, Mr. Muqi smiled, and then said to Elma beside him: "Don't blame this old boy, if you care about it, you will be confused, that's how he is."

"I never blamed Grandpa Herrning."

Shaking her head, Elma smiled reluctantly, "I also doubted myself, let alone Grandpa Herining."

"That's good."

A faint smile appeared on Mr. Muqi's face, but he was still a little worried, but he didn't express it, but explained to Herinen who was on the side: "Old He, now, the gods can't see us."

The gods cannot see us.

After hearing this sentence, Helining was stunned.As the monarch of an empire, and also a rare "people's monarch", Herinen's sensitivity to some things is far beyond ordinary people.He seemed to have noticed something, frowned, and asked, "Muqi, do you know what you're talking about?"

"I know."

Mr. Mu Qi nodded, looked at Zhou Li lying in the crystal, and said calmly: "But, don't you think it's too coincidental?"

"The injuries that can only be treated by the Church of Life, the sudden appearance of the devil, the statement made at twelve quarters. Old He, I don't believe that you can't see the connection based on your experience."

Mr. Mu Qi's words made Helining startled at first, and then his face became serious.He is not an idiot, there are some things that others cannot see clearly, but he can see clearly.As a true monarch elected by the people, Herinen's attitude towards the gods is actually beyond ordinary people's imagination.In the eyes of outsiders, Tarik is the place where Twelve Quarters descended, and Herining's treatment of the gods should be extremely pious, and he should follow the will of the gods and never retreat.Some people even said that the reason why Herinen supported Elma was because he was already under control.

In fact, only a few people know that Herinen has always had doubts about the gods.

He had spoken to his youngest daughter Tia, both of whom were skeptical of the gods.Herrinen has always believed that the unconditional help of twelve quarters to human beings has crossed the line, and human beings have begun to stagnate because of the support of twelve quarters.Tiya is relatively pure, she just thinks that human beings have begun to look like domestic animals raised by the twelve righteous gods, which is totally unreasonable.

At the same time, Muqi also noticed Herinen's thoughts.

"Old He, if you are really as devout as they say, you won't be living in the surveillance fortress forever."

Hearing was silent for a moment when he heard the words, then he waved his hands, sighed and said, "I knew I couldn't hide it from you."

"Yes, I have been guarding against the gods."

Mr. Mu Qi smiled, then he looked at Zhou Li at the side, with a deep voice, "Since you and I are people with ulterior motives, I will speak directly."

"Old He, what do you think will happen if we really hand over Zhou Li?"

Herining was stunned, and after he was concerned about it, he was not flustered, and he began to imagine the words in Mr. Muqi's mouth.Then, his complexion suddenly became ugly.

"Yeah, as long as you and I think about it for a while, we can figure it out. If Zhou Li's assassination is full of weirdness, then wouldn't it be even weirder to have this kind of just-in-time assistance from the gods?"

Mr. Mu Qi stroked his chin, looked at the broken soul in Zhou Li's body, and said calmly: "This is a complete game. The purpose of the gods to set up this game is not to hurt Zhou Li, but to let him go to the arms of the gods." It is the real purpose. If my guess is correct, once we hand over Zhou Li, we will know nothing about what the Goddess of Life did to him."

"Then···"

Looking at the dignified Herining, Mr. Muqi shook his head, his voice seemed to possess magic power, "We will lose the brave and lose hope."

Helining didn't speak anymore, he knew that he might just be skeptical, and Mr. Muqi and Elma had been secretly fighting against the gods.After a while, he looked at Elma beside him and asked, "Has the conflict between humans and gods reached this point?"

Raising her head and staring at the elder-like old man in front of her, Elma said calmly: "My temptation is over, and the gods have given me the answer. Your Majesty Herining, can you accept the answer I'm going to say? ?”

Herrinen did not answer, but fell into long contemplation.After a long while, he was a little bit bitter again, and then smiled a little bit relieved.He looked at Elma, the flustered expression disappeared, and the calmness that never changed appeared on his face, "I have guessed it, even if you don't listen, the answer I guessed will always exist in my heart."

"The gods never thought of salvation."

Elma looked at Herinen and told the truth, "What the gods want to do is to raise human beings to the state they want, and then destroy everything."

"When I became the Black Emperor and started that meeting, I prayed to the gods in my heart, letting them watch everything I did."

Stretching out her hand, the black emperor's seal appeared on the back of her smooth and white hand. Looking at the traces symbolizing imperial power, Elma said slowly: "They didn't respond, but they watched me. After the meeting, I can clearly I feel that the blessings of the twelve gods have left me. Instead, there is a kind of gaze that is everywhere."

"Later, I sent out the Storm Legion, declaring that I would confront the Demon King head-on. But in fact, the Drizzle Legion and the Third Magnum Army also carried out covert operations. Only I and the corresponding person in charge knew about the existence of the covert operations. According to my calculations at the time, the Demon King's army could no longer withstand my combined punches. However, at the most critical moment, the Demon King seized the vitality that no one could detect, and escaped as if he had predicted it in advance. The strangulation of the hidden army."

Putting down her right hand, Elma looked at the boy in the coffin and said calmly: "Since then, I have understood that the devil king will not be defeated by me in advance. In other words, whether I can defeat the devil king or be defeated by the devil king There is a fixed time and place, there is a fixed script."

"Later, I stopped launching large-scale attacks on the devil king, but sent out various hidden troops to carry out small-scale battles. As I thought, these few battles were all victorious, but the only ones who were wiped out were those transformed by the devil king. Corpse."

Elma's eyes were gradually covered by black mist, and an indescribable transparency appeared in her vision, "During this period of time, Twelve Quarters has not condemned or condemned me, and they have been helping me .Until I sent the first legion wearing the Amulet of Ending."

"I made the amulet, and the effect is very simple."

Mr. Mu Qi on the side opened his mouth, and with his usual expression, he said the effect of the mysterious amulet.

"The gods cannot watch."

"Then, on the second day after that army severely injured the Demon King himself, Twelve Quarters launched a denunciation."
