Starting from the Dragon Tribe

Chapter 833 The Death of the Dawn Knight

Lu Chen followed Ji Wujiu's footsteps, "What happened?"

He thought to himself, could it be that the Sistine Empire was at war with the Kingdom of Steam and Machinery? Some time ago, he heard from Chu Zihang that the country of steam and machinery had entered a state of full preparation for war, and the target of the war was unknown.

Although Chu Zihang prospered there as a researcher and ace pilot, he still didn’t understand the deep-seated secrets of the Kingdom of Steam and Machinery. He analyzed that the Kingdom of Steam and Machinery was not competing for territory, but There are other goals.

Although the Kingdom of Steam and Machinery is smaller than the Sistine Empire, it is also vast and sparsely populated. The population density of this world is not high.

Territory is actually not of much significance to either country. In terms of materials, the two lands are equally fertile and barren, and there are no specialties that can only be found on the opposite side.

When two countries go to war, race, belief, etc. are just rhetoric. There is often only one real reason, and that is interest.

But what are the interests of the country of steam and machinery?

Although they have made significant progress in industry, they may not be able to gain a clear advantage in the current war with the Sistine Empire. Once a war breaks out, life will be ruined and no one on either side will be able to make it easy.

But Chu Zihang said that the top leaders of the country of steam and machinery were very determined and seemed to be involved in the fate of mankind in this era.

"There has been a change in the Sea of ​​Nothingness. Mr. Bolton, the Imperial Shield among the Four Horsemen of the Dawn, has disappeared there, and the Imperial Spear has died in the line of duty, and even his body has not been recovered."

Ji Wu Jiu walked very quickly and took Lu Chen to his own office in the Inquisition.

"Strange movement? Is there any creature or weird thing that appears?"

Lu Chen felt a little trembling when he recalled the shadows that he saw covering the sky and the sun that night outside the void, hidden behind the thick fog.

At that time, Pope Mona of the Church of Eternal Night and Pope Peter of the Church of Morning Embrace fought over the Sea of ​​Nothingness, and finally both escaped because of the appearance of that existence.

If that existence really appeared, let alone the two Knights of Dawn, even Ji Wu Jiu would have a hard time surviving.

Ji Wujiu asked Lu Chen to sit down. Perhaps because of the urgency of the matter and his heavy heart, he did not make tea, "We don't know the specific reasons for their death and disappearance, but the situation over there is very bad now. The people in Haibei Province have been Arrange emergency evacuation.”

Lu Chen pondered: "What did the church do before sending them?"

"Recover the Guardian Suit. There is one item in the Guardian Suit that has not been returned to the church. The two of them acted together in order to recycle the arm armor in the Guardian Suit. However, on the way back, a special weird disaster occurred in the north of Haibei Province. , the two went to deal with it, and eventually one died and the other disappeared.”

Ji Wu Jiu explained.

"Where's the Guardian suit?"

Lu Chen smelled something unusual, a strange disaster or something, it was probably just bait.

"Now its whereabouts are unknown. It may have been left in the Sea of ​​Nothingness, or it may have been taken away by someone."

Ji Wujiu took out a document and said, "This is the report of the matter."

Lu Chen took the document and glanced at it, wondering, "A disaster that makes it impossible for the two Knights of Dawn to escape? Then they should have encountered an existence of the divine envoy level. What I don't understand is the information about their death and disappearance." , where did it come from?"

Not even the Dawn Knight was spared, could there be other survivors?

"It's Her Majesty the Saint. She is a secret follower. She didn't need to deal with that matter originally, so she didn't follow the two Dawn Knights to the north of Haibei. Instead, she was completing the synchronization with the Guardian suit. She was I have obtained three guardian suits to investigate some of her private matters in Haibei Province."

There was a hint of worry in Ji Wu Jiu's eyebrows. He rarely showed his emotions on his face, but the current situation was indeed very bad.

"Your Highness the Saint? Can she survive?"

Lu Chen thought back to the beautiful blond girl. Her strength was only mid-level, not comparable to Master Yideng. Logically speaking, any Sin Archbishop of the Eternal Night Church could kill her.

How could she come back alive when both Dawn Knights were defeated?

"It was already too late when she arrived. She only saw Mr. Sirte, the Spear of the Empire, exploded into a ball of blood mist, and Mr. Bolton was swallowed up by the huge waves of the Sea of ​​Nothingness. She was unable to rescue him at all, and if it weren't for the Guardian Suit Even if the effect is too great, she won’t be able to escape alive.”

Ji Wu Jiu tapped his fingers on the table, the speed increasing without him noticing.

Lu Chen thought thoughtfully. He had never come into contact with the Guardian suit, but now it seems that the effect may be really powerful, allowing a person with a special level of basic strength to have a life-saving ability better than that of the Dawn Knight.

He asked: "The situation is indeed very bad, but why don't the two Dawn Knights give the last guardian suit to Irina first, so that her combat power will be stronger."

"I don't know. I would like to say that they are following the established procedures of the Night Watch to maintain the order of the night, but their mission priority should indeed be based on the Guardian suit, even if it will bring disaster to the lives of Haibei Province."

Ji Wu Jiu seemed to be in a very irritable mood. Counting the lost Guardian suit, the Church of Morning Embrace only had three pieces left, and they also lost two Dawn Knights.

The so-called disappearance means that in that case, there is basically no possibility of survival.

"Mr. Ji seems to be very irritable and things are very troublesome, but you shouldn't be so anxious."

Lu Chen wondered, he knew that Ji Wujiu was a calm person, otherwise he would not be called the God of Death in the Night and serve as the director of the Inquisition. Even though the place that protected the inheritance fell, he was still calm.

"You are right. The loss of the two Dawn Knights is indeed a heavy blow to the Morning Embrace Church. But with the rise of young people, as long as Peter and I are still there, we can always get through the difficult times. What really gives me a headache is another thing."

Black shadows surged around Ji Wu Jiu's body, sealing off the entire office. He said solemnly, "His Majesty the Pope is missing."

"What?"

Lu Chen was really shocked this time. He was well aware of Peter's strength. A conservative estimate was that his main attribute in combat was at least 185 points, making him the well-deserved top human master in the world.

Ji Wu Jiu frowned slightly, "After the incident, he also went to the Sea of ​​Nothingness, but did not come back."

Hearing this, Lu Chen suddenly felt something was wrong. He only went out for a few days and traveled around the empire a little. Finally, he had a battle with the explorers in the northeast. It was not far from Haibei Province. If a divine force broke out there, He should be able to sense the level of battle.

Especially the existence in the Sea of ​​Nothingness. If it appeared, not only him, but everyone on the entire continent would feel palpitations.

"When did this happen? Why was there no big movement?"

Lu Chen asked.

"Two days ago, I wanted to recall you urgently, but the church is not clean inside. I am afraid that recalling you will make people aware of something. His Majesty the Pope's disappearance is still confidential information."

Ji Wujiu said, "He went to the Sea of ​​Nothingness in secret. No one knows about his disappearance except me. If the Church of Evernight learns that Peter is not in the capital and is missing in the Sea of ​​Nothingness, things will become even more complicated." trouble."

Lu Chen nodded. Although the Yongye Church usually acts in a low-key manner, it is always very fierce when it is time to take action. If they learn that the highest combat power of the Morning Support Church is missing and there is indeed a problem with Ji Wujiu's strength, then they Even if it comes to overthrow the royal capital, it is not impossible.

Therefore, Ji Wu Jiu could not leak the news. Once it spread, not only would the people within the Morning Support Church be unstable, but they might also be attacked by foreign enemies.

"So, what does Mr. Ji want me to do?"

Lu Chen asked the key point. The other party told him such a confidential thing, so he must have a plan.

"Mr. Lu, don't be impatient. Listen to me first. The seriousness of the matter is not just that."

Ji Wu Jiu sighed, "Things are constantly landing in the Sea of ​​Nothingness. Most of the night watchmen above the high-risk level in the Church of Morning Embrace have received transfer orders and started heading to the north this morning."

"weird?"

Lu Chen thought.

"A large number of them and a wide variety of them are constantly appearing. The Sword of the Empire, one of the Dawn Knights, has gone to take charge, but the situation is not stable. I can't leave the royal capital now, so I hope Mr. Lu can make a trip."

Ji Wu Jiu explained.

Lu Chen did not ask the other party why he could not leave the capital. In the absence of Peter, Ji Wujiu was the number one master in the capital. If he also left, it would be almost equivalent to the capital being defenseless. The Yongye Church would even There was no need for the Pope to take action personally. Several sinners came over and ransacked the house.

"Is it urgent? Need to leave immediately?"

Lu Chen thought for a while and asked. To be honest, he thought this matter was very complicated and didn't want to go directly to the Sea of ​​Nothingness.

He likes to fight strong people, but he doesn't want to go head-to-head with unknown opponents who are obviously unbeatable.

The being hidden in the Sea of ​​Nothingness is probably an old god. As for which one it is, the church cannot verify it, and even Peter cannot give an explanation.

The old gods are the upper limit of difficulty in this world, and they are far different from his current strength. If he wants to fight against the old gods, he must improve his strength as soon as possible.

The God of Gamblers ban is something that only gambling dogs can do. Lu Chen can't guarantee that he can enter that state on the line between life and death, especially when he is carrying the lives of his teammates.

"It's not urgent. Ye Chengfeng, the Sword of the Empire, contacted me two hours ago and said that the current situation is relatively stable, but he feels that there is something terrifying approaching in the depths of the Sea of ​​Nothingness. He hopes that the royal capital will send another one. Knight of Dawn although he defends together.”

Ji Wu Jiu said he was not in a hurry, but the message in his words still urged Lu Chen to go as soon as possible.

Lu Chen thought for a moment, "...Give me two days. When I was patrolling the empire, I discovered a hidden danger at the level of an angel. I want to solve the problem there first."

What he was talking about was of course Kaka's news. Before heading to the Sea of ​​Nothingness, he hoped to absorb another piece of weird origin.

"God envoy level? Mr. Lu, you..."

Ji Wujiu was stunned when he heard this, but he sensed Lu Chen's aura and found that the other person was much stronger than before, "Why did you absorb the strange origin so quickly? Didn't I say to do it step by step?"

He was worried that Lu Chen's absorption of the strange origin too quickly would lead to a mental breakdown, as the opponent's improvement in strength was obviously abnormal.

Less than a month had passed, and the other party had already become a true divine envoy-level powerhouse. It took me ten years to digest the origin that I had absorbed back then!

"Maybe I have a special constitution, and maybe Mr. Ji already knows what I saw back then."

Lu Chen slowly said that Cardinal Kural resigned last week and gave up his position of power within the church. After staying in Ocalan City for a few days, he returned home to retire.

However, he said that if the Morning Support Church needs it, he is still willing to serve as a night watchman at his disposal.

The events of that year were also re-recorded in the database. Archbishop Kural apparently retired because of his mistakes back then. Of course Ji Wu Jiu now knew the truth about Ocalan City, and he also knew that Lu Chen had faced the ancient god.

"Perhaps everyone's talents are really different. Mr. Lu is a real genius."

Ji Wujiu shook his head and said, "But are the divine envoy-level disaster risks you mentioned within the country? Are you sure you can handle them?"

"I will give it a try. Because the investigation is not deep enough, I won't say more. If I feel unsure, I will go directly to the Sea of ​​Nothingness."

Lu Chen only listened to Kaka's general location and could not talk to Ji Wu Jiu in detail.

"It seems that Mr. Lu has a troublesome constitution. I heard that you encountered people from the Eternal Night Church in the northeast. The landscape was changed during the war..."

Ji Wu Jiu looked at Lu Chen thoughtfully, "I hope Mr. Lu's trip goes well."

Lu Chen and the other party looked at each other calmly, knowing that Ji Wu Jiu should know that there was something wrong with his actions in the Northeast, but it did not cause any losses to the church. Ji Wu Jiu obviously turned a blind eye.

What the Morning Support Church needs now is strong men. With Ji Wu Jiu in ill health, Lu Chen is the undisputed number one strong man. It is impossible for him to compete with Lu Chen on such an unknown matter.

What's more, Lu Chen's previous performance in guarding the place of inheritance has proven himself that he is by no means an enemy of the Morning Embrace Church.

"I will rest in the capital for half a day and then set off directly. If it is really urgent there, Mr. Ji can contact me again."

Lu Chen thought for a while, stretched out his hand and said, "I don't have a convenient way to contact the headquarters yet."

Ji Wu Jiu was stunned for a moment, then took out a giant monkey doll from the shadow, "It can contact me."

After taking it, Lu Chen took a look and saw that it was still a mysterious item of mythical quality, so he put it away directly.

Seeing Lu Chen get up, Ji Wu Jiu added, "Mr. Lu may encounter Sister Sylphy when he goes out. If you are in a hurry to go home... it is best to avoid her."

Lu Chen was a little confused, but he still nodded. Ji Wu Jiu didn't urge him to leave the royal capital directly. He obviously knew that he was going to meet Miss Eriki from Duke Uesugi's house.

After he walked out of the Inquisition, he saw Sister Sylphy standing outside, blocking the door. Today she did not wear a nun's black veil on her head, her long hair was scattered like a waterfall, and there was anxiety on her beautiful face. .
