Abomination and the Legendary Dragon King

Chapter 276 Holy City (4k Subscription)
The red dragon who was honeymooning with the little saint didn't know what was going on in his hometown. In fact, even if the red dragon knew, with Alex's arrogant character, she probably wouldn't take it Those small principalities in the north are taken seriously.

In the early morning of this day, Red Dragon and Messiah, who had traveled through mountains and rivers, finally came to the area of ​​the holy city.

The holy city is actually not a city in the strict sense, but a large mountainous area centered on the cathedral of the holy sepulchre, including the holy city of dawn and the entire mount moria and judea.

If all the ruling areas of the holy city are included, the area that this city can directly rule is not smaller than the land area of ​​those northern duchies.

From this point of view, it seems more appropriate to regard the Holy City as an independent country. Although the city has never declared itself a political entity to the outside, the influence of the Holy City on the entire continent is almost It is second only to the First Empire.

Although Alex doesn't have any good feelings for this city, there is a terrible and evil god buried in that glorious and romantic city, even with the power that the red dragon can control now, in the face of such a When the strange and powerful existence exists, there is no certainty of victory at all.

After all, an ancient evil god from another world is far more powerful and weird than the native god in Tyrael.

Since the golem puppet was scrapped, Alex gave up his carriage and rushed towards the holy city with Messiah overnight.

In order to avoid the strict patrol at the gate on the west side of the holy city, after leaving Graycastle, Alex set out southward under the leadership of Messiah, intending to take a detour through the Judea mountainous area in the south. .

The scenery along the way is actually very good. The mountains of Judea are not barren. Although no one takes care of them, they are still covered with evergreen trees and bright and beautiful flowers. There is no violence in the mountains that is common in Tyrell. Beasts, even dangerous carnivores, are rare.

The mountains of Judea are vast, and despite the help of magic, it still took the Red Dragon a whole night to complete this arduous journey. In the early hours of the day, Alex stood on Mount Moriah On the northernmost peak, overlooking the ancient city on Mount Moriah from a distance.

"It's so beautiful!"

Standing on Mount Scopus on the north side of the Judea Mountains, Xiaolongniang couldn't help sighing.

That city has a history of more than 1 years. It has many walls, towers, and is built on the barren and steep mountain walls. It is rich, prosperous, and exquisite.

The morning sun shines from the east, and the gleaming palaces and gilded gates reflect the blazing brilliance, making the entire holy mountain shrouded in holy brilliance. From the perspective of the red dragon, it looks like a place on the top of the mountain. The snow is generally beautiful and dreamy.

Alex came back from the beautiful city, she heard the slight sobbing, turned her head, and found that the eyes of the little saint were filled with crystal clear tears.

"Kanaz, that used to be my home!"

The little saint stretched out her finger and pointed to the brightest building on Mount Moriah and said to the red dragon that she hadn't rested for several days, but the brilliance on her face was still dazzling at this moment.

"Well, yeah, then I'll take you home."

Under the sun, the red-haired girl in a white dress took the young nun's hand and walked towards the city shrouded in light and darkness.

----------------

Messiah is obviously very familiar with this city. The outer city of the city, that is, the outside of the San Antonio Fortress, is the area where residents live and trade.

The people here are very pious, and the whole city is shrouded in a kind of quiet noise. Around the clean road, you can see worshipers praying to the top of the holy mountain everywhere. Some believers are already very old, with hunched backs Thin, but the expression on his face is still moving and peaceful.

There is no doubt that this is a big city, although the geographical location is not good today, the city is built on a mountain, the surrounding is too steep, and the city is located in the mountainous area of ​​the mainland, it does not seem to be a good place for economic development.

However, as the largest and holy place of faith in Tyrell, it can still gather hundreds of thousands or even millions of believers during the pilgrimage season. Whenever those festivals come, the entire mountain will be worshiped believers drowned.

Fortunately, the time for the arrival of the red dragon is not the peak season. Although the city can still be said to be prosperous, it is not crowded. People consciously abide by the order, and even deliberately lower their voices when trading.

Alex and Messiah entered the city along a hidden path, avoiding the paladins outside the holy city, two young girls strolled in the bustling morning market, the red dragon held a piece of The unleavened cake was the size of a basin. The big dragon had already hollowed out the middle part of the unleavened cake, and then ate it in circles around his neck.

Messiah didn't know when she changed into an ordinary nun's attire, and she also put on a black veil, leaving only a pair of slightly sad light blue eyes scanning the surroundings, as if she was looking at such a nun. After many years have passed, what changes have taken place in the familiar town.

There were a lot of people in the market, and some young people couldn't help but focus on Messiah and Alex. On the one hand, they were beautiful, but on the other hand, the big cake around Alex's neck was really attractive. eye.

Compared with ten years ago, Alex is still young, but the naive and romantic little saint has grown a lot in these ten years, both physically and mentally, which makes When the two of them walked together, they were like a pair of close sisters.

Messiah noticed the gazes around her, and she held Xiaolongniang's hand tightly. The cruelty of this guy left a deep impression on Messiah, and the little saint really didn't want to do it again before she tried Before saving this place, this holy city was destroyed by Alex in anger.

Fortunately, after Alex entered the market, he didn't react too much. Instead, he calmed down unexpectedly, and kept nibbling on the unleavened cakes hanging around his neck. It is like a rare treasure.

In fact, after Alex entered this city, she had a familiar feeling. There is no doubt that she had never stepped into the holy city before, but in the dark dimension summoned by the evil god, Ah Lex has seen the corpses of this bustling city.

Messiah and Alex continued walking, walking all the way to the depths of the city. As time passed, there were more and more people in the morning market, and the surrounding buildings became more and more prosperous and exquisite. Finally, Messiah was in the city. He stopped in front of a big shop.

Alex could see the girl's hesitation, but in the end, Messiah entered with the red dragon.

There are not many people in the shop, but the items inside are all high-quality goods. The red dragon is born with the ability to accurately value treasures. Alex casually scanned with his powerful perception, and found in the shop. Some precious raw materials or jewelry, some of which are even necessary for making legendary weapons, are very rare rations even for the current Red Dragon.

Messiah didn't stay in the shop for too long. She lowered her head and walked in with a muffled voice, passing through one complicated corridor after another. Stop Messiah and Alex from advancing.

In the end, the two passed through the shop and entered the rear residence. In a peaceful and beautiful garden, Alex saw the person Messiah wanted to meet.

It was a rich middle-aged woman, wearing a simple but expensive black long dress, with gold ornaments on her nose, holding a newborn baby in her hands.

"Ms. Maria, I want to ask for your help."

Messiah walked to the side of Ms. Futai and took off her veil.

The woman holding the child in the sun froze for a moment when she saw Messiah's face, but was soon replaced by a natural and warm smile.

"Messiah, we haven't seen each other for ten years."

The chubby Maria greeted Messiah with a worried smile on her face.

"You shouldn't have come back, those archbishops have been looking for you all these years."

"I know that they are looking for me, and I really don't want to go back to this city that brought me pain and torture, but the blood of the saint flowing in my body requires me to do this. duty of."

Messiah is obviously very familiar with this woman, and it can even be said that she is very close and said a lot in one breath.

"Ms. Maria, I would like to ask you to do me a favor, for me and for everyone in this city."

Messiah restrained some of her emotions, and told Maria the prophecies handed down from the Holy King's family and the sufferings and disasters that the Holy Kings experienced in the past. When she slowly stated these secrets Afterwards, the entire garden fell into silence.

At this time, the sun shining on her body almost at noon could not dispel the chill in Maria's heart.

With her wealth and status, of course she heard some rumors about the Holy King and destruction in this city, but when the truth was told by Messiah and the judgment of destruction came to her head, Maria still felt unacceptable .

After a long time, the sound of the wind blowing through the flowers and plants echoed in the garden. A bird lightly landed on the table in front of Maria and ate some dried fruit. Tilting its head, it happened to see the red bird who was eating a pancake next to it. Falong Niang was instantly intimidated and fell to the ground.

"Okay, I promise you, but I can only do the best I can"

Maria reluctantly opened her mouth, and the Red Dragon could feel that her will was not firm. When the disaster struck, would she choose to believe in Messiah? After believing in Messiah's words, would she choose to try to save this birthplace? Her city is difficult to determine.

Red Dragon knows these things, and Messiah should be able to feel it too. This is a girl who can see through people's hearts. In some places, she has talents comparable to devils, and few people can lie in front of her.

"Thank you, Ms. Maria, I and this city and everyone living in this city will never forget your contribution."

Messiah sounded with a grateful voice, and then bid her farewell. When leaving the manor, the red dragon could feel that the footsteps of the white-haired saint were much lighter.

"So, can we go home now?"

The red dragon finished eating the pancake hanging around his neck, and asked Messiah, she didn't really want to stay in the enemy's lair, and the faint evil spirit made the red dragon feel very uncomfortable.

"Well, not yet, but I can take you to eat something good."

Messiah's mood was much more relaxed, and she was joking with Xiaolongniang with a smile at the moment, but when Alex asked curiously what Messiah would give him, the little saint didn't give an accurate answer. .

"I can't tell you this, but I assure you, it's definitely the most sumptuous meal you've ever had."

The cheerful words of the little saint almost made the red dragon think that she was going to cook herself for Alex's lunch.

Messiah continued to pull the red dragon forward, walking along the edge of the Fortress of St. Antonia towards the mountainous area of ​​Mount Moriah. The Fortress of St. Antonia has a high status in the holy city, symbolizing the coat of God, so There are not many shops and messy items near this wall, and there are not many pedestrians who can be seen everywhere here.

Messiah led the red dragon to the outskirts of the city. The shops gradually became scarce, and the residential areas and some cultivated land increased. The economy of the holy city is not developed, but it is not bad. At least people don’t have to worry about food and clothing. On the road, children and old people don't see much sorrow on their faces, and some pilgrims and ascetics still frequently appear in these families.

The two finally passed through the entire shopping area and residential area. After leaving the bustling area, the scenery suddenly became clear. The vast scenery of Mount Moriah came into the eyes of the red dragon. After ten thousand years of cultivation, the originally desolate mountain A large-scale cultivated land has still been formed, and it is the gathering of harvest at this moment. The endless wheat fields are spread on the mountain like a gorgeous clothes, which is very beautiful.

Messiah stopped in her tracks, and from her suddenly clenched palms, the red dragon could feel the girl's sudden nervousness.

She looked up and looked around, and saw an old man with a gloomy face standing not far in front of her.

At the first glance, this old man seemed to be the same as those ordinary farmers, but the expression on his face was much more numb than ordinary people, and there was no vitality in the dim eyes that humans should have.

However, when Alex's perception swept across his body, the vast ocean-like holy light reflected in front of Alex's eyes, instantly arousing the fighting spirit of the red dragon.

　Thank you for the reward of 96-style salted fish, and thank you for your genuine support
