Starting from the Dragon Tribe

Although Lu Lin felt much better after listening to Eriki's words, her heart was still gloomy.

Because everyone in the royal capital believed that Lu Chen was dead, and even a grand funeral was held in the Morning Embrace Church Cemetery today, she, as a family member, did not attend.

She thought that was unlucky, and her brother would definitely come back alive.

"Ms. Uesugi, thank you. I'm much better. You can go about your own business."

Lu Lin felt a little tired and wanted to go back to her room to take a nap.

"Sister, live your life peacefully, he will come back."

After Eryi comforted Lu Lin, she left Lu Chen's mansion. She also had her own main mission to do.

As the Battle of the Sea of ​​Nothingness came to an end, and the Kingdom of Steam and Machinery encountered a surprise attack by a team of inexplicable powerful men on the first night of the war, the war inexplicably stalled again.

According to those explorers in the land of steam and machinery on the world's public channels, it was the president who called for a halt to the war, and no high-level officials raised any objections.

There is news that the top management of the country of steam and machinery has changed their strategy, abandoned the previous path, and is establishing new goals.

You don't need to think about it to know that the country of steam and machinery is intimidated.

When the greatest natural disaster struck in the Sea of ​​Nothingness, they still chose to take advantage of the crisis to attack the Sistine Empire, just to seize something and lead the people of the country through this era.

But that was only a theoretical hope, and now that they heard that the Dawn Knight of the Sistine Empire had killed an old god, their thinking would naturally change.

They were not sure about the life and death of the Dawn Knight. Even though the spies had collected the information and the Church of Morning Embrace held a grand funeral for Lu Chen, the Kingdom of Steam and Machinery still couldn't make a conclusion.

They can't take this risk. The existence that can kill the ancient gods is itself a world-destroying natural disaster. What if the Sistine Empire is fishing?

Moreover, the fall of the ancient gods is already a recognized fact. If Lu Chen is still alive, they no longer need to worry about the future of this era. Perhaps it would be better to change their thinking and cooperate with the Sistine Empire to exchange their needs. choose.

Of course, everything is based on the fact that the god-like man in the Sistine Empire is not dead. The country of steam and machinery decided to stay silent for a year, collect more information, and then decide how to make the next move.

The world has returned to peace after the disaster, allowing all forces to breathe a sigh of relief.

Under the underground palace at an unknown location, Mona sat on top and looked at the six sin priests standing below.

The Sin Archbishops each nodded and lowered their eyebrows, waiting for instructions.

"The next six months are particularly important to us. You must restrain your subordinates and spend this period peacefully. Then the truth will emerge."

Mona's voice was soft, but it carried the dignity of a high-ranking person.

Her complexion was not very good, slightly pale, because the battle three days ago was not as easy as she imagined.

As expected, the country of steam and machinery hid a secret weapon against the powerful God-level warriors. She almost suffered a big loss. Fortunately, the operator on the opposite side revealed a loophole, and she seized the opportunity to make a quick fight.

"Your will be obeyed."

The sin priests all saluted in unison.

"Liu'er, what do you want to say?"

Mona saw that the Priest of the Sin of Lust was hesitant to speak, so she asked.

"His Majesty the Pope."

Su Liuer came out of the queue and saluted first, "About the Dawn Knight of the Morning Embrace Church... he should not have died."

"Is there any basis for this judgment?"

Mona sounded tired.

"The information is not very reliable. It was obtained by one of my subordinates, but I watched the battle at the time and felt that he was not the kind of person who would choose to die with the ancient gods."

Su Liuer recalled that she originally did not think that Lu Chen would die in the depths of the Sea of ​​Nothingness, but recently there were more than one priests below who gave such subtle hints. Based on experience, I feel that these people’s judgments have some basis, but I can’t dig deep enough to find out.

The firm belief can also pass, and these people have always behaved well, so she did not kill anyone.

"He is so strong that it goes against common sense. Even if he uses some taboo method, he should have his own fighting ideas."

Su Liuer analyzed: "And the funeral in the royal capital was held too quickly. Generally speaking, for a strong person of this level, a savior, it would take several months of searching without any results before a conclusion of death would be made. Well, the funeral was held in such a hurry, it was like sending a message to the outside world."

Mona pondered for a moment, "I know, this is good news and bad news, but our original plan remains unchanged."

Seeing Su Liuer open her mouth, Mona raised her hand and said, "Speak."

Su Liuer knelt down on one knee, lowering her head and not daring to look into Mona's eyes, "Your Majesty the Pope, my subordinates believe that this plan is actually... inappropriate."

"inappropriate?"

Mona's voice was calm, but all the sin priests present knelt down one by one.

"My subordinates also think it's inappropriate."

One by one, the Sin Archbishops spoke one after another, and Su Liuer's words were just a trigger.

Mona frowned slightly, "Tell me what you think."

Su Liuer hesitated and said: "Your Majesty the Pope, I understand men very well and know how to read their eyes. His Royal Highness the Holy Son... will definitely bite back."

The other sinners said nothing, obviously acquiescing to Su Liuer's opinion.

In half a year, Clement will be an adult. As a guardian, his initial growth rate will be ridiculously fast. I am afraid that within a year or two, he will become an angel-level powerhouse. Do you work for the Eternal Night Church?

Aston, the arrogant Sin Archbishop who participated in the operation to protect the place of inheritance, is no longer here, but they still learned the details of that battle.

They believed that His Majesty the Pope may have good intentions, but ultimately misjudged human emotions. Clement may indeed hate that place, thinking it was his former prison, and also hated those classmates who often laughed at him.

But in the battle between life and death, something more real made him realize that he was definitely not sincere in joining the Eternal Night Church.

Mona tapped her back hand with her jade-like onion-like fingers, and after a moment of silence, she slowly spoke, "...I understand, you guys go down."

"His Majesty the Pope!"

The Sin Archbishops all spoke out, trying to persuade him, but they thought this was absurd.

Even though the guardian's combat prowess is important to their goals, they can't let tigers become a source of trouble.

"I said...I know."

Mona's voice was calm, but invisible pressure covered the entire hall.

For a time, the Sin Archbishops were silent.

Mona seemed to feel a little tired and waved her hand, "Go down."

"Then... let's leave first."

Su Liuer stood up and saluted, and the sin priests walked out of the hall one after another.

Mona looked at the backs of the Sin Priests with empty eyes and sighed silently.

After leaving this underground palace, the furious Sin Archbishop punched the rolling hills in the wilderness, "His Majesty the Pope must be obsessed with something! She might..."

Before he could say anything to me, a delicate plain hand locked my throat.

Su Liuer's beautiful cheeks were as cold as frost, without any hint of charm, "Watch your words, don't let it happen next time."

A slight cold sweat appeared on the fat forehead of the furious Sin Archbishop, "I understand."

Su Liuer retracted her hand, turned and walked in the other direction, with a gloomy expression on her brows.

…………

Lu Chen has been exploring the Abyss of Nothingness for a month. Apart from the various strange creatures that live in groups here, he has not encountered any big ones.

However, in some mud, we witnessed some weird birth processes, such as black goat babies.

Through these phenomena, Lu Chen roughly deduced that the owner here might be the old god who represented death, Niederhor Tower.

During this period, in addition to hunting down a divine envoy-level monster, Lu Chen was also trying to purify and blend the origins of the monsters he had obtained before in the Hengyu Furnace where Douzimi evolved.

Emperor Wu has cultivated to the level of the Saint King. Except for the divine envoy-level origin, the concentration of other weird origins is insufficient, and there is no improvement at all when absorbed.

But there are very few god-level weirdos. Even in this difficult hidden snow area, he has only seen one this month. He has to be cautious when hunting, for fear of awakening the old god hiding here.

After the last experience, Lu Chen reflected on it. I am afraid that the old gods are very concerned about the characteristics of their God Eater rings. It is okay to kill the strange origin by yourself, but erasing the will of the ancient gods is an invisible provocation. .

But Lu Chen couldn't sit idle just because he was afraid. He had to further improve his strength before he could leave this hellish place.

Even though he was telling Eri how delicious the local specialties here are, he actually felt a little nauseous when he took his mouthful. He just had nothing to do and always wanted to have a tooth festival and try some wild game (please don’t imitate it)

The snacks in his storage space have been eaten. Although he doesn't need to eat, the food habit he has developed over the years always makes him feel uncomfortable without eating anything for a day.

Moreover, the aura here is even thinner than the outside world, so eating is a good way to replenish physical strength and energy.

In the battle with Clearapus, he consumed a lot of source blood, and he needed to make up for it.

Lu Chen had just finished his homemade meal when he suddenly sensed powerful energy fluctuations far in front of him, as if someone was fighting.

He immediately cheered up. He hadn't seen any big movement for more than a month, so he wanted to go over and have a look.

At first he was cautious not to open his spiritual consciousness, but later he discovered that in this place, his spiritual consciousness could only open for about a hundred miles at most, and could not be fully extended at all.

Lu Chen stepped on the secret code and walked through it for about a minute, and finally saw what was fighting.

It wasn't the expected monsters fighting each other, but two humans fighting against a god-level monster.

Lu Chen knew both of those two people. They were the long-missing Pope Peter of the Morning Embrace Church, and the Dawn Knight who was officially certified dead, Mr. Bolton.

The two of them were fighting in a very unique way, like a sunken ship transformed into a monster. The body was covered with algae, and there was a pair of gray eyes in the shadow. When they moved, sawdust flew everywhere, and there was an aura of death in the attack.

Pope Peter's Great Prophecy continued to create voids, suppressing the divine envoy-level monster, and he had the upper hand. However, the vitality of the weirdness here was very affected by the environment. As a traditional extraordinary person, Peter's recovery ability was obviously not as good as the geographical advantage. The name is weird, so I couldn't win it for a long time.

Seeing this, Lu Chen rushed over, his full state released, and with the support of Douzi Mi, he slashed at the seaweed-covered monster with one strike.

The dark sword light cut through the sky, and water lilies bloomed from the mud on the ground as he sprinted.

Before Peter could react, Regicide cut off the behemoth's body, and then without giving Weird any time to breathe, he struck out three more times, weakening Weird's life source to freezing point.

This divine envoy's attributes were similar to those of Lu Chen, but he killed the opponent more cleanly than Peter, whose attributes were slightly higher than his own. This was the difference between bells and whistles and martial arts.

When the mysterious shipwreck was about to counterattack, Lu Chen raised his hand to see the Hengyu Furnace evolved from Douzimi, and suppressed it.

This is a good thing and cannot be let go. Coupled with the weird origins he hunted before, it may allow him to move up two levels.

Peter looked at the sudden appearance of Lu Chen, who was a little confused for a moment.

The last time he met Lu Chen, he was not a powerful person at the level of a divine envoy. Why did he feel stronger than him now?

"Mr. Lu...what are you doing?"

But it is naturally a gratifying thing to meet a strong person within the church in a place like this, just like how Bolton first met him.

"Oh, the strange origin is so precious, it cannot be wasted."

While refining, Lu Chen used the God Eater Ring to swallow the ancient god's will and divinity from its strange origin.

Lu Chen saw Bolton standing not far away and greeted him, "Mr. Bolton, Sister Sylphy will be very happy if she knows you are still alive."

Bolton had just recovered from the shock, "Mr. Lu, why are you down too?"

Lu Chen floated the Hengyu Furnace beside him and walked towards the two of them, "Unlucky, I just killed an ancient god and was dragged down by its dying counterattack."

Silence, long silence.

Peter and Bolton looked at each other and made an unsightly move at the same time, reaching out and picking their ears.

"Mr. Lu...what did you just say?"

Peter suspected that he was hallucinating and was affected by the Abyss of Nothingness. The Lu Chen he saw at this time was fake. The man who killed the envoy-level monster with just a few swords was fake. Everything was fake.

"I said, I hacked an ancient god to death. In the classic sense, maybe it should be called...what is it called? Oh, Clearapus, that thing is old. I hacked it to death for a long time."

Lu Chen grinned.

Peter and Bolton looked at each other. Is this a fight with an ancient god?

Why does it sound like killing a pig?

"Mr. Lu...can you let me check your mental condition?"

Peter hesitated for a moment and then spoke. He admitted that Lu Chen had shown great fighting prowess just now, but it was far behind compared to the ancient gods.

He suspected that Lu Chen was suffering from hysteria and was affected by the power in the Abyss of Nothingness.
