Your Majesty, drink the medicine quickly

Chapter 149 You have to save me! Firewood! (-in-)

It's obviously just autumn, but it's already freezing below zero. It's fine when there's sunshine. When there is no sunshine, frost begins to form.

'It's time to change clothes. 'Li Pu thought of the thick cloak that Sir Charles was wearing: 'There seems to be a bearskin cloak in my luggage. I'll put it on later. '

At this time, Li Pu had already gone up two floors and arrived at the guest room area where Katerina and others were. At the corner of the stairs, Li Pu heard the chatter of nuns in the corridor outside.

——"It's strange, the above ground area of ​​the castle has not been inhabited for a long time, how come it is so clean!"

——"Yeah, I thought I had to clean these guest rooms before I could move in! But now I don't dare to go in because I'm afraid of messing up the carpet!"

——"Didn't you listen to the servants downstairs? The castle seemed to be in trouble last night. It was still very messy yesterday, but overnight, the whole castle looked brand new!"

——"Stop talking, Keli is scared."

Li Pu walked out of the stairs with a strange expression and entered the corridor: "The Grand Duke's things were indeed stolen by those two guys. Katerina also cleaned up." '

In the corridor, Xiao Keli and the nuns were carrying buckets, preparing to go downstairs to get water. Seeing Li Pu walking up, everyone looked surprised.

It seems that Master Nip plans to live on the same floor as everyone else. With him here, there should be no need to be afraid at night.

"Sir, we have put all your luggage."

"Yes." Li Pu nodded and asked about the whereabouts of Katerina and Elizabeth.

"Ms. Irene and Her Majesty Katerina brought 'Themis (Elizabeth)' back before. Themis cried for a while after returning to the guest room, and then clamored to go back to her room to get something."

"The three of them went to Chicheng Tower." A nun pointed to several towers in the distance outside the window and said, "They should be back soon."

It turns out that the castle also has a chapel of the Holy Order. It was specially built by the Grand Duke for the 'Themis' in the early years - there were too many daughters, and the Chicheng Monastery could not accommodate them.

Those high sincerity towers not only housed more than twenty Themis, but also hundreds of powerful nuns - these people alone were considered a large group of priests!

After hearing these words, Li Pu looked at those towers and was dumbfounded.

My father-in-law is really outrageous.

"Actually, if we expand our monastery, we can still live in it." The sincere nuns obviously hope that their monastery will be larger: "But the most noisy 'Themis' doesn't like to live outside. , the Duke had no choice but to build some towers specifically for her and Luna."

'It seems that Elizabeth and Luna are the daughters that my father-in-law values ​​the most. 'Li Pu thought to himself: 'The one I dislike the most on the surface is the one I like the most in my heart. One who likes someone on the surface also likes them in their heart. '

"Sir, we are about to go out, do you want us to go find them?" asked an armed nun.

"No need, I have something to ask you." Li Pu pulled many nuns into his room and asked about some cult matters.

Li Pu just learned something about the cult while discussing plans with the Duke. But he was worried about his father-in-law. So checked it out here at the nuns.

After some questioning, Li Pu discovered that his father-in-law did not lie at all. This surprised him.

What surprised Li Pu even more was that the nuns seemed to know the cult better than his father-in-law.

"Sir, in fact, Lady Irene was the first to discover that there was a cult in the city. We have been conducting investigations secretly. If we had not followed the envoy out of the city, we would have followed Lady Irene and infiltrated the cult."

Eileen has always trusted the Duke, but she does not trust the people around him. Therefore, she did not share much information with the Duke.

——"Sir, there have been missing people in the city. It seems that the cult has been preparing for sacrifice. Based on these missing people, we have already locked some targets."

——"But considering that they may not know the specific location of the ceremony until the ceremony is about to be held, so we have not taken action against those targets."

——"Cultists all wear masks when they gather, and they will not confirm each other's identities in depth. If you take advantage of the time they are holding a ceremony and put on a little disguise, you can sneak in."

"Sir, those missing people may just be used as a 'warm-up' for the real sacrifice."

Said an older nun (in her twenties) who was Irene's lieutenant: "They are always looking for the perfect sacrifice."

The nun solemnly reminded: "Before, Themis were undoubtedly the most perfect sacrifices in the eyes of the cultists, but your appearance may change their minds."

[If the nuns originally believed that the archangel sent by Hilna was the most suitable person to pose as a sacrifice and follow them into the cult. So now they don't want Li Pu to take risks with them. 】

[Because this is the incarnation of the Supreme God! 】

"This is the second time someone has reminded me." Li Pu's face looked a little ugly, and he thought to himself: "I won't really be kidnapped, right?"

"I suddenly had a strange premonition." Li Pu turned to look at the camera here: "If I suddenly become a missing person, my sixteen loyal servants will become my last and only life-saving straw. "

These sixteen loyal servants are indeed very reliable.

In Li Pu's mind, the nuns are even more reliable than the Tadars.

Because they are as loyal as the Tadar people, but they are not mentally ill!

In fact, if Absalom hadn't often caused some random things, this demon who was both reliable and unreliable would have been included in Li Pu's reliable list.

At this time, the nuns on the side couldn't help but look a little weird when they saw that the adults were talking to themselves again.

"Sir, if you disappear one day, we will definitely try our best to find you."

Li Pu nodded.

He is really a little scared now.

As scared as Dante.

After thinking for a while, Li Pu dug out three bottles of medicine from his luggage and gave them to the nuns.

The other three bottles will be carried with him.

'I don't know why, but I always feel that these medicines are crucial. 'Li Pu thought to himself: 'I don't know what effect it will have if only half is taken, but eggs cannot be put in one basket. '

After talking about this, Li Pu planned to change his clothes and wait for Katerina and others to come back.

He sent the nuns out the door and then asked about Katerina and Elizabeth's rooms.

"The neatest one!" Xiao Keli pointed to the next door on the right side of Li Pu's room. Then, she pointed to the next door on the left side of Li Pu's room: "And this one is the messiest."

Li Pu knew who she was talking about.

"Sir, we are going to fetch water and do the laundry first. We will come back later to clean up Themis' room. This is a huge project."

Elizabeth is pretty good at messing up the room that Katerina has cleaned.

Back in the room, Li Pu found some fur coats, bearskin cloaks, leather gloves, etc. worn by noble knights in winter from his luggage, and put them on him.

People rely on clothes, and with his height of 1.9 meters and that strong figure, he is undoubtedly a perfect clothes hanger.

In addition, when Li Pu is not nervous, he always has the temperament of a person who has been in power for a long time.

This makes the tall and heroic 'noble knight' in the mirror look more like Duke Violet than Duke Alfred.

'Cajeelina said that she and her other six sisters have reinvented themselves. The twelve supreme gods are the ones who gave them flesh and blood when they reshaped themselves. '

'So, the blood and bones of her human body should come from one or more supreme gods. Then why is she the daughter of Duke Alfred? '

Li Pu always felt that Alfred was Dante.

Because only this is reasonable.

'As a combination of filth and holiness, her father should be the Demon King of Hell and the Underlord of the Abyss, a god who controls the original dark divinity. '

He became somewhat curious about Katerina's life experience.

Li Pu has a feeling that this matter is not only related to Alfred's true identity, but may also be related to the authenticity of the 'seven old angels'.

If the seven old angels really existed, wouldn't there really be a person who had given the old gods salvation? While thinking, Li Pu opened the 'Sacred Book of Sincerity' in his hand. Then, from the middle of this heavy book, I took out a thin children's book.

"The Holy Scripture of Sincerity is too bulky, but this one is easier to flip through."

Li Pu opened the children's book to the appendix.

Previously, when the Duke said, "Unlike Catherine, Elizabeth's birth was not what her mother wanted," the "secret included in the book" that appeared in the narration was here.

What's interesting is that the previous paragraph of this "life story" happens to be a mythical story about the "Saint Girl Who Holds Fire".

[Since the world ushered in the Mist Era, the 'fire-bearing saint' has become a secretly inherited position in the new Holy See. 】

[The fire bearers, like the 'Themis the Sinners', have no names. 】

[But unlike the 'prisoners' like Themis, the 'fire bearers' are 'fuelwood' that mortals quietly place on the suspended god's throne. 】

[People believe that when the sacred flame is ignited in the body of a certain generation of saints, the twin sister of 'Hethrodiil, the God of the Sun' - the goddess 'Heraldice, the God of the Dawn' will recovery. 】

[Heraloides will eventually replace the Sun God, and her supreme divine light will dispel the fog and bring true light to the world again. 】

"What the imprisoned seeds refer to is that the gods have awakened, but are imprisoned in mortal bodies - they are cages and seeds, and the real soul will sprout in the body at any time."

After making some guesses, Li Pu said to himself: "The firewood is the fire bearer prepared to resurrect the god when the god is dead and the god's throne is vacant."

"It turns out that the Holy See or the gods are also creating gods."

Li Pu guessed that this Herodis should be one of the founders of the Kingdom of Heaven.

I don’t know how he died later, but when the gods were helpless against the mist, some people or gods remembered this ancient god who had brought the first ray of light to the new world.

Li Pu looked at the story of Katerina's life experience.

[Alfred back then was once considered to be the incarnation of the sun god. 】

[But what no one knows is that this famous 'Sun Knight' in the Holy See is looking up to the light of dawn. 】

[He has been fighting against darkness all his life, and has dedicated his life to exorcising evil spirits and dispelling fog. 】

[A man like Alfred makes even goddesses fall in love with him. What about the nuns in the Holy See? 】

[Unfortunately, Alfred is not very interested in men and women. 】

[This may be due to the career he insists on, which makes him have no energy to share his heart with her. 】

[Perhaps, he has given his only heart to that person. 】

[Time can melt the ice. 】

[It can also make the dazzling sunrise in the darkness become gentle. 】

[After getting along day and night, Priestess finally made a mistake with the knight who protected her. 】

[And made many, many mistakes. 】

[After constant efforts and mistakes, the Priestess, who was originally unable to give birth to a child with a mortal, finally unexpectedly became pregnant. 】

[Once this matter is exposed, it will be a heinous crime! 】

Seeing this, Li Pu frowned: 'Is it impossible to have an heir with a mortal? '

'A mortal sin? '

Reminiscent of the mythical story of 'Hethrodiil', Li Pu had already guessed who this priestess was.

"No wonder, Alfred is looking up to the 'light of dawn' - he has always been the Holy See, secretly arranging for the guardian knight of this 'fire saint'!"

"Not only does he believe in the Goddess of Dawn, he also admires her!"

"And the goddess in the so-called 'goddess falls in love with her' refers to this Priestess! Just like my father-in-law, my mother-in-law has also had a secret love for him for a long time!"

Li Pu suddenly discovered a problem.

"Every 'title' in the Book of Redemption has a meaning. Since the book uses 'the goddess falls in love with her' to describe the Priestess, it means that this Priestess was destined to become a god!"

"It's even possible that she is the goddess herself, just like Sirna back then!"

If the Priestess had not given birth to Katerina, she would have definitely ignited the divine fire.

But because of the bad things done by her father-in-law, her mother-in-law changed from a goddess to an 'unnamed nun' living in seclusion in Tadar.

"Back then, I'm afraid there were many pairs of eyes secretly staring at this 'Fire Lady'."

"Even with the power of the Grand Duke, it is almost impossible to suppress this matter."

"Unless some god intervenes."

Li Pu suspected that the reason why the Priestess was able to live in seclusion in Tadar must have been the secret intervention of some god.

After reading the story behind it, Li Pu was greatly surprised.

The one who helped Alfred and Priestess turned out to be the Sun God!

"The Sun God does have a reason to help the two of them."

Li Pu's face looked a little strange: "So, the Sun God is actually Katerina's uncle?"

"No wonder He would rather pay such a high price to save Jelena back to heaven."

Unlike Uncle Sun God who protects himself and Katerina, his purpose of helping his father-in-law and mother-in-law is completely selfish.

Because, 'Hethrodiil' is also the sun god. And is the supreme god.

There is no need for two suns in the sky.

Once 'Hethrodiil' wakes up, the Sun God's position will be awkward.

He might even fall directly from the throne of God.

These sentences are written like this in the book:

[In desperation, Alfred and Priestess asked the Sun God for help. 】

[When the Sun God learned of the existence of the 'Fire Bearing Saint', he was furious. 】

[What makes him even more angry is that Alfred, the Sun Knight whom he has always valued, is not his loyal believer! 】

[But He helped the two of them after all. 】

[Priestess no longer holds fire, and with the help of the Sun God, she lives in seclusion in Tadar. 】

[Alfred, the blasphemer, also swore never to set foot in the City of the Sun (Tadar City). And he became the sun god during his lifetime, guarding the west side of the Sun City. 】
