Ark's Journey to the Demon God

"Andorn, do you have any doubts about what you believe in?" The pope's voice slowly sounded behind him.

"I..." Andorn looked at Mr. Agaritu, but Shen Muke just gave him an encouraging smile.

"Yes, Grandpa Pope, I doubt the faith I once believed in so deeply."

"Are you panicked and angry about this?"

"No, I just feel inexplicable sadness." Andorn shook his head and said: "I come from Chao Shi Town in Iberia, which is my hometown and where my memories are... However, it was destroyed silently. interest

. "

"That's why I have doubts about my faith. Grandpa Pope, since the supremely merciful Lord has allowed us to grow so proudly on this land, then Sakota should fulfill the corresponding responsibilities and obligations. We have the right to enjoy it." Why can’t we allocate even a tiny bit of our endless power and wealth to redeem those ordinary people? Is this the mercy of the Lord?”

"Your idea is good, Andorn, but do you know? The endless power and wealth in your eyes are nothing compared to the suffering on this land." The Pope shook his head and said: "The great glory of Lateran was opened up by the sages with their blood. We are the ideal and benchmark of this land. All this is hard-won. You have great ideals, but how can you regard the efforts of the sages as the only way to realize your ideal?" Tool? Have you considered the feelings of your tribe?"

The Pope's words were very sharp. He pointed out Andorn's wishful thinking, helping others who have wronged him. Although he is great, he does not get the support of his compatriots. This is the most difficult path to follow.

Andorn was silent, he couldn't think of an answer.

After a long time, Shen Muke said: "Actually, why do you insist on cutting down the entire forest to light a bonfire? Isn't it good to pick up branches?"

Shen Muke patted Andorn on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Why should we think about saving others? Can't we let them save themselves?"

Shen Muke walked between Andorn and the Pope. He opened his arms and showed his path to both sides of Sakota——

"We should not be heroes who save others, nor should we act like heroes."

"The Rutlan should not seek salvation for the earth, but should lead their way by their own actions."

“Saving is inefficient, but guiding the way is once and for all.”

"Whether it's Lateran or me, we should not redeem them from God's standpoint, but guide them from a human standpoint."

"We must help the victims realize their ideals and open their minds so that they can embark on the right path."

“Prayers are of no use in the face of suffering.”

"There has never been a savior, nor did we rely on a fairy emperor. To create happiness for the people of Terra, it all depends on ourselves."

"If we must apply this idea to Lateran's teachings, I would like to call it——"

“Liberation Theology!”

……

boom!

squeak-

The heavy door was pushed open to both sides, and the buzzing sound of large machinery penetrated everyone's ears. In the center of the hall, the law showed its true appearance.

In Andorn's shock, the Pope's calmness, and Shen Muke's calmness, the huge wheel of the law began to rotate. The next moment, the Pope, Andorn, and Shen Muke all received revelations in their ears——

[The system detects normal, replies, and the order is passed. 】

It became.

Shen Muke closed his eyes. He knew that the law recognized the ideas of the three of them. It did not make a choice, it wanted them all.

This is the victory of the idealist. Shen Muke knows that from today on, Rutland will become his partner, and Andorn, he will become his most capable assistant.

The light of the law continues to shine, and a large amount of information flows into Andorn's brain. He is accepting the wisdom of the sages and the transformation of the law.

When the light dissipated, Andorn opened his closed eyes and watched everything calmly.

"Andorn." The Pope suddenly said, "Although it's still a little early, I think it's about time."

The old man took out a gun from his body and handed it to Andorn solemnly.

This is a gun with some wheels and a guard blade. The silver-gray shell is embellished with exquisite inscriptions. It is a bit luxurious, but the color scheme is relatively low-key.

"Every Sakota should have his or her own guardian gun. Although you are still too young, I think you are already qualified."

"Use it well, Andorn, and you will embark on a path similar to those before you, but different."

Chapter 1 Dragon and Lion, Return to Victoria

Year 1085 in the Terran calendar.

Snowland, Kjerag.

Completely different from the stereotypes of the past, today's Kjerag has entered a state of rapid development. Scholars and scientists from Casimir, Victoria, Letania and even Ursus have come here, and they are here Found a fertile ground for industrial progress.

Under the liberal policies of the Sherag Kalan Council, which can be called paradise, whether you are an infected person or an ordinary person, no matter where you come from, as long as you have a skill, you can come here and get a job. Of course, in order to ensure Safety, the activity areas of infected and non-infected people do not overlap.

There is nothing we can do about this, because we always have to consider personal safety and health issues, right?

This strategy of almost treating everyone equally and allowing everyone to use their strength is the basis for Kjerag's continued strength today. They have built factories and research institutes one after another, almost completely getting rid of the past days of gathering and hunting. Today's Kjerag , the breeding industry and agriculture have made great technological progress. Due to the shortage of various resources, people in the snowland have even walked out of the snowland, and have cultivated fields and mines in places that cannot be covered by wind and snow, in order to feed the growing population. Growing population.

As for those who came from afar, they established settlements surrounding the Snow Realm. Their arrival expanded Kjerag's territory.

如果

To say that the wilderness around the Snow Realm was opened up into fields can only be regarded as pioneering, so when Kjerag's mobile city rumbled in the wilderness, Kjerag completely walked out of the Snow Realm!

Yes, the mobile city was supervised by Nian and built by workers, scientists, and engineers from all over the world, and was eventually named - Snowland No. [-].

This city is used to resettle those who cannot be accommodated in the snowy realm. Some of them are fleeers who come here because of their reputation, some are suffering and infected people who have been excluded by various countries, and some are natives of Kjerag. .

They responded to the call of the Kalan Council and settled in this mobile city. When they obtained the nationality of Kjerag through voluntary labor and other methods, they, like ordinary Kjerag people, abide by Kjerag's laws and fulfill their obligations. The obligations of the Kjerag people, and enjoy the great progress of Kjerag, and get a stable life here.

Although these people do not believe in the great Jeragond of Kjelag, some are even devout followers of Lateranism, and some were even mercenaries who licked blood on the tip of their swords in the wilderness, but this is not important!

Mr. Olafur, the head of the Shivaash family, said that all the conflicts in the past are not important. Those past have passed. What really matters is the way you want to live now.

The past is a bad debt. Shen Muke has talked about this with Olafur before. There is no doubt about what a stranger has done in the past, because the standards of judgment are different, and for Sherag, the real What matters is what the person is like now.

Whether you are a mercenary or a doctor, whether you are a philanthropist or a gangster, Kjerag doesn't care what you have done in the past. When you pass the test and truly join Kjerag, you abandon your past identity. You just need to Just follow Kjerag's laws and morals.

Yes, today's Kjerag has gradually gotten rid of the backward primitive religious concept of governing the country in the past. They now advocate more law and morality.

With the support of many members of the Parliament, Kjelag's legal formulation mainly refers to the advanced experience previously proposed by Mr. Agaritu. As for ideological and moral matters... the newly compiled scriptures written by the Holy Lady are the best moral benchmarks.

As for the enforcement of laws and orders...

Xierag's Holy Mountain Army has been carefully trained by instructors from Victoria and Casimir. Their combat effectiveness has long been incomparable. The Xierag picket team managed by Mr. Cilic has ensured that Xierag's Regular security ensures that no matter who violates the laws here in Kjerag, they will be severely punished!

In this way, Kjerag completed a leap in industrialization when the surrounding countries were stuck in stagnant development and line struggles!

Even the Kjerags themselves never thought that one day, their country would become so powerful.

Thanks to the efforts of the people of Kjerag, the snowy landscape is changing day by day. The most advanced thing in the world today is of course not the Source Stone hand warmers, but drones powered by electricity.

Kjerag, a great country in the snow realm, is rising, becoming stronger, and gradually becoming a powerful country that cannot be ignored on this land.

……

"Sister, Vina, it's time for us to go."

Abrana, with dragon horns on her head and a staff in hand, shouted into the room that today is a special day for Drac and Aslan's children.

They are returning to Victoria.

Dragon and Lion, return to Victoria.This is the path Shen Muke designed for his precious student.

Perhaps because of his intervention, Princess Aslan and the Drake twins will no longer follow the established path in the plot, but their return is necessary.

Mr. Allen's road is in Casimir, and the Corleone brothers' road is in Syracuse, so it stands to reason that their road is in Victoria.

But this time, they will be different from before.

"Come on, come on! Really, why do you have to choose today..."

Alexandrina Vina Victoria pouted, holding a sour lollipop in her mouth, carrying luggage in one hand and a heavy hammer in the other, and walked out of the door mumbling.

Ravshini carried the box and held Vina's hand affectionately to calm the lion's anger.

Draco and Aslan are so harmonious, they are as good as sisters!

A land vehicle approached from far away, the door opened, and the person who got off was none other than their "part-time driver" for this trip to Victoria, Mr. Chester.

Chester said hello to several young people, indicating that they could set off.

"Have your luggage packed? Then let's set off. Mr. Chester will send us to Victoria. Lavshini and I are sure to get off at Xiaoqiu County. Vina, what about you?" Abrana asked road.

"Me?" Vina thought for a while and finally said: "Let me go to Londinium first. The gentleman said he would wait for me there. I have to meet him."

"I see, then we will go to Londinium first, and then go to Xiaoqiu County. Without further ado..."

"Wait a minute, everyone."

A gentle voice sounded, and a young Liboli man wearing a white robe and holding a cane came from a distance.

"Elliot? Why are you? Isn't the institute on duty today?"

"I have quit my job, and I am now a homeless person. ()" Elliot said humorously: "I wonder if the princesses can take me in as a homeless person?"

"Don't come here, Elliot." Abrana rolled her eyes.

Eyes, said: "What's going on?"

"It's Mr.'s arrangement." Elliot blinked and said, "Mr. communicated with me a few days ago. According to Mr.'s wishes, I want to go back to Londinium with Vina."

"Why, why is this?" Wei Na asked puzzledly.

"Sir, what you mean is that there are two people in Draco, and there is only one Aslan. As a teacher, he is always worried about letting his precious student Wei Na wander in Victoria alone."

"Hey, you're looking down upon me..." Vina chewed the sour candy dissatisfied and vowed to lash out at Mr. Agaritu when she saw him!

"So, Elliot, Sir wants you to assist Vina?"

Abrana was a little confused and said: "Why you? You haven't been to Victoria before, right?"

"I don't know, but the reason why sir specifically wrote it in the letter is... because it fits the setting."

Elliot shrugged and said, "Who knows what this means?"

Everyone shook their heads, and Elliot covered his face and said helplessly: "Sir, if you do this, you must be seriously ill, right?"

Shen Muke from afar: So I said, why can’t the King of Knights have Merlin by his side? ! !

"However, I feel good about this arrangement, sir." Elliot looked into the distance and murmured, "I have longed for Victoria's many technologies for a long time."

Elliot was very curious about Victoria's unique steam knights and those large machines!

"Everyone, if you have any questions, let's talk about it on the way." Mr. Chester clapped his hands and said with a smile, "It's time for us to set off."

Chapter 2 Attitude towards Lateran

Six years ago, a dessert shop in Rutland City.

His Majesty the Pope added sweet cream and ice cubes to the coffee in his hand. The lethal amount of sugar gave Shen Muke, who was sitting opposite, a headache just looking at it.

Is this dosage really good?Shouldn’t older people eat less sugar?

Putting down the tea spoon stirring the coffee in his hand, Shen Muke said: "Your Majesty the Pope, as our last farewell meal, do you really want to serve the tequila tart as our main course?"

Because it was still many years early in time, Rutland had not yet developed such an unorthodox dish as the cactus tart, but this did not mean that Sakota's imagination was limited.

Therefore, Shen Muke was honored to taste the lighter version of the cactus tart, the agave tart.

Many people may have some misunderstandings about the agave plant. After all, a certain clean and hygienic up owner once asked netizens to associate the agave plant with things like nasal discharge. But in fact, the horror of agave is not limited to that. in this way.

Apart from the sticky texture, the unmodified grassy smell of agave can put most edible plants to shame. With the addition of sweet egg tart liquid and pastry, it inexplicably has the taste of Zhangqiu green onions.

Shen Muke frowned and picked up one. At this moment, he understood very well the future Rutlanders' fear of cactus tarts.

“Rutland’s food culture is so tolerant…”

High emotional intelligence and tolerance.

Low emotional intelligence and chaos.

A smile appeared on the Pope's kind face. Until this moment, Agaritu had really kept up with Lateran's rhythm.

"Andorn, have you left?" the Pope asked.

"Yes, young people who have already seen the direction are always so impatient. This is a good thing, but it also always makes people uneasy." Shen Muke took a sip of coffee and said, "I am restless..."

"That being said, Mr. Agaritu, you shouldn't be that old, right?"

"How does His Majesty the Pope know?"

"Behavior, and breath." The Pope narrowed his eyes, showed a kind smile, and said: "You don't have the ancient breath common to immortals."

"Really? That's really..." Shen Muke was a little embarrassed. Temperament is not something that is easy to cultivate.
