Twilight Speaker

Chapter 207: Old Friends Gathered (Fake Chapter)
"Are you going in person?"

The minister was obviously surprised:
"The Meng family is like this."

The Queen shook her head and said calmly:

"The ancient ancestor of the Meng family was the founding duke of the White Star Nation. Even if we really want to encircle and suppress him, I will go to see him. This is the most basic respect for the old meritorious official."

He paused, rubbed his brows, and sighed deeply:
"If the world wasn't in chaos, if the dimensional gods weren't coming one after another, if the Great City wasn't going crazy again, I would have even turned a blind eye to this matter."

The minister's expression changed slightly.

The Queen spoke wearily:
"By the way, what do you think about the Great City?"

The minister thought about it, shook his head and smiled bitterly:

"I can't understand it, I can't fathom it. The Great City suddenly announced that it would worship the Red Moon Council and reform the outer three rings. This is undoubtedly courting death, but it is precisely because of this that people are afraid of the Great City. What is the basis for this?"

The Queen shook her head and lowered her eyes.

"I don't know. According to the latest news, the Great City has once again threatened to start preparing for a grand ceremony that will shake the world."

The minister was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked:
"What ceremony?"

"A ritual to summon the Old Ones."

The Queen stood up leisurely:
"Get ready to start recruiting soldiers. I have a feeling that a world war or even a war of gods will break out again. Okay, let's get back to the point."

He exhaled lightly and continued:
"Notify the inner guards and several other great nobles to gather in secret and prepare to wipe out the Meng family. Also notify the Thinking Hall. I am going to see the old duke for the last time."

"Yes!"

The minister bowed respectfully.

………………

A large estate in the heart of the capital.

"Sir, we are here."

The hovercraft slowly descended, the hatch opened, and Meng Tu respectfully invited everyone out.

Even when their feet were on the grass, Li Quan and the witch were still a little confused and felt it was unreal - they used to be "cultists" who could only hide in the sewers of the capital.
But today, at the invitation of a duke, he stepped on the manor of the third largest noble in the entire White Star Country.
Like a dream.

The two looked at the withered old man in fear, their minds turning over and over again, who is this great senior? ?
Chen Xiang also got off the hovercraft at this time. His cloudy and dim eyes brightened slightly, and he clearly sensed many familiar auras.

He glanced at Meng Tu and said with a smile:
"The church's headquarters has moved to your place?"

Meng Tu's expression suddenly changed, and he immediately reacted and lowered his head:

"You know that too?"

Li Quan and the witch looked at each other, both confused. Church?

What church?
Chen Xiang smiled and nodded, sensing for a moment, and said:
"They are all underground? Take me to see them."

Meng Tu was shocked and confused, and had no idea about the identity of this skinny old man. But since the Speaker had issued an order, it meant that the old man was probably more powerful than he had imagined.

He hesitated for only a moment, then extended his hand to guide me and said respectfully:

"Please come with me."

Meng Tu led the way, Chen Xiang followed behind, and Yu Jin, who had transformed into an ordinary person, wandered around the manor casually.

Following Meng Tu into the main building of the manor, I ran into an old man who also looked very weathered.

"How did you wake up?"

Meng Tu was obviously stunned. His ancestor had been sleeping for many years. It was normal for him to sleep for hundreds of years. Otherwise, he would not dare to hide the high-ranking officials of the Church of Order in his home.
But now the ancestor suddenly woke up.
After a moment, Meng Tu suddenly came back to his senses and quickly introduced:
"This is my grandfather, the ancient ancestor of our Meng family, and also the founding duke of the White Star Nation. Grandfather, this is..."

He was a little speechless and didn't know how to introduce Chen Xiang.

The old man, whose aura was at the peak of the divine spirit and close to the level of true god, opened his eyes and stared at the skinny old man in front of him. His heart was beating involuntarily and his spirit was trembling slightly!

He finally turned aside and spoke in a low voice:
"The Meng family is honored to have your presence."

Meng Tu was obviously stunned.

Chen Xiang looked at the old man with interest:

"you know me?"

“I don’t know you.” The old man shook his head: “But I can feel your power.”

Chen Xiang said thoughtfully:

"Meng Tu said that you are the ancestor of the Meng family and a founding hero of the White Star Nation. With your realm, Meng Tu's affairs should not be hidden from you. Don't you care?"

Sweat dripped down Meng Tu's forehead. Grandpa had already discovered it? ? The old man sighed:
"It was too late when I found out. This brat is already an apostle of the Old Council. We are too deeply entangled with him to be cut off. I might as well let him go and follow this path to the end. Since I have made the bet, I must follow it to the end. Being fickle will really lead to a bad ending."

Meng Tu swallowed his saliva, a little dazed, Grandpa really had discovered it a long time ago.
Chen Xiang Yile:
"That's a wise thing to do. You made a wise choice. OK, let's stop here first."

The old ancestor of the Meng family bowed his head slightly and disappeared silently. Meng Tu came back to his senses at this time, wiped the sweat off his face, and said with a wry smile:
"I'm sorry to make you laugh."

As he spoke, his heart was slightly beating fast. He was well aware of how powerful his grandfather was. Standing at the pinnacle of the divine level, if he did not have enough faith, he would have entered the realm of true God long ago!

Even so, Grandpa showed respect to the unknown old man, even if it was just a little bit.
This person is probably a true God!
Thinking of this, Meng Tu swallowed his saliva again and hurriedly led the way.

Chen Xiang followed him and soon arrived at the underground area of ​​the manor. After passing through a long tunnel and opening a huge stone door, a spacious hall came into view.

There were many people walking around in the hall, but at this moment they all stopped and looked sideways. They were obviously stunned and looked at the skinny old man warily.

A middle-aged man holding a thick book looked slightly serious:

"Duke Meng, this is..."

Meng Tu was a little confused and didn't know how to introduce them, but Chen Xiang had already stepped forward.

He leaned on his tattered cane and glanced around, finding many familiar faces.

Chen Xiang sighed softly:

"Your name is Wu Ku, right?"

Wu Ku was originally just a history professor in the third ring outside the Great City. Later, he compiled the book "The Day of God's Descent" and was recommended by Auntie and finally determined by Chen Xiang as a candidate for Pope.

Wu Ku's expression suddenly changed. He took a step back and spoke cautiously:
"Who is your Excellency?"

The rest of the people in the hall also stepped forward and stood on guard.

Chen Xiang looked at them one by one. Although he couldn't remember the names of many people, they all looked very familiar, such as the red-haired man on the side.
He used to be a host of the Third Ring outside the Great City. He also joined the Order Church during the incident seven years ago and was one of the earliest believers.
Another example is Mori, who was just a professional liar seven years ago, but the birth of the Church of Order can be said to have an important connection with him.

It was this guy who formulated the seven steps of the outer three rings for brainwashing and preaching.

At this time, the faces of the church leaders in the hall became solemn. Mori took a step forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with the former red-haired host.
Both of them exuded the aura of saints.

Wu Ku, who was now the Pope of Order, floated up into the air, and a thin book with the three characters "God's Descent" written on the cover emerged.

A faint light was dimly shining on the book, and there was even a hint of divine majesty mixed in the light! !

The atmosphere in the entire hall suddenly became cold and the air was restless and uneasy. Everyone was gathering their strength, and it seemed that a war was about to break out!
The withered old man turned a blind eye to all this, and just sighed softly, saying:
"Seven years. You've been hiding for seven years. These years must have been very difficult, right?"

No one answered. Wu Ku's expression became even more solemn. He was ready for a fight to the death. He turned directly to the last page of [The Day of the Divine General], and an ethereal and majestic voice emerged!

“The Eighth Day of God’s Coming”

"The heretics nailed Him to an inverted cross, the people were outraged, and the pure white knight raised his spear and shield high."

Along with this majestic and ethereal voice, the light on the book became even brighter, almost like the blazing sun.

Under the blazing sun, an illusory scene appeared. It was the scene you saw: a young man was nailed upside down on an inverted cross, surrounded by angry believers and pure white knights holding high their spears and heavy shields! !

Chen Xiang gazed at this illusory scenery, feeling both moved and surprised. The book compiled by Wu Ku had actually turned into a great achievement under the influence of his faith.
"Okay, okay."

He praised softly, and his smile became even wider, but with a dry face that was almost devoid of flesh and blood, the smile looked extremely creepy.
The chanting from [The Day of God's Coming] became louder and louder, the illusory scene became more solid, and the young man nailed upside down on the cross in the illusion seemed to be about to descend, with his eyes wide open in anger!

"It's very interesting to use the virtual to return to the real."

Chen Xiang praised:
"The book in your hand is undergoing a transformation. If you use it with all your strength, it should be able to replay the events of seven years ago, or even summon people from seven years ago?"

After a pause, he carefully looked at the virtual scene and sighed:

"But after all, something is missing. This book has the potential to become a taboo. To be more precise, it is gradually becoming a taboo."

Everyone in the hall looked at each other in bewilderment. Wu Ku narrowed his eyes, his nerves tense, and he also burst out with a surging aura of a pseudo-god level!
"Who are you?" he asked in a deep voice, "Friend or enemy?"

Father Mori at the side couldn't help it and asked Meng Tu again loudly:
"Duke Meng! Who is this?"

Meng Tu was about to explain when he saw the skinny old man beside him tapping his cane.

The next moment.

The illusory scene that emanated from the book [God’s Descent] suddenly boiled over.
The young man in the illusory scene actually raised his head, his eyes shining like the sun.
At the same time, a faint, blurry shadow appeared behind the withered old man.

It was a huge bronze cross with two large white bone wings growing out from its back, with a deep dark color floating in it.
The bronze cross was exactly the same as the bronze cross in the illusory scene.

The huge hall suddenly fell silent.

"I am back." God spoke peacefully, "Now that I have returned, your suffering is over."

"From now on, it's just light."
