Evening Bell Church

"What are your plans to heal the schism in the church now?" Su Ge asked Xiang Vanas.

Vanas pondered for a few seconds and whispered: "It's best not to use our power rashly. I think what we need more now is not expansion, but consolidation and hiding."

"Why?" Su Ge became interested.

Because he thinks so too.

Vanas frowned slightly: "I always feel that something big is about to happen, and the remnant of the God of Death that has merged with me has been reminding me to be careful about the sky in the future."

"The sky of the future..." A glimmer of light flashed in Su Ge's eyes.

"What about you?" Vanas asked.

"I think so too, because the world is about to change dramatically."

After discussing with Vanas, Su Ge found Hal, the Apostle of Desolation.

Hal proved himself after the Brilliant City incident and became the other two apostles of Sugar together with Luke, inheriting the power of Sugar's dreams and mist.

Luke, the Apostle of Plague, rules the Court of the Glen, and Hal, the Apostle of Desolation, rules the Court of Morning Bells.

Now that the four Apostles of the Apocalypse - Death, War, Plague, and Desolation - are complete, the entire Evening Bell Church is like a beast that has finally grown its limbs, slowly showing its true form.

"Bell holder." Hal, who was looking up at the sky of the Kingdom of God, came back to his senses and saluted Su Ge respectfully.

Su Ge smiled and asked, "Are you still not satisfied?"

A cheerful smile appeared on Hal's young and handsome face: "How can I see enough? I, an old man, have lived for three thousand years. For such a long time, my understanding of the world has been deeply implanted in me. Instinctively. Unlike you little kids who have just lived for more than 20 years or 40 or 50 years, you can quickly accept this incredible new thing."

A forty-five-year-old little baby...

Hearing this, Su Ge felt a little dumbfounded. Only a true immortal species could say such kind of half-hearted but domineering words.

Hal continued: "This Kingdom of God, this world, and these battleships in the sky, I really can't get enough of it. No matter how I look at it, it shakes my soul."

"The world is about to undergo tremendous changes. In the future, you can see many things you have never seen before. In the long time to come, follow my Lord and embark on this glorious expedition. I guarantee that you will all You won't feel bored or bored," Su Ge said seriously with a special light on his face.

Hal answered equally seriously: "Therefore, I and our Hester family will dedicate everything we have to our Lord!"

Then, Hal asked: "Bell Holder, what do you want from me?"

Su Ge nodded slightly: "I am very concerned about the changes in the abyss. I once entered the abyss, and the feeling made me very uncomfortable."

"You actually went in!?" Hal was completely shocked after hearing this.

"No, I entered the city of Byron that sank in the abyss, not the real abyss." Su Ge shook his head.

After hearing this, Hal sighed, "I know a lot about Byron City."

"Oh? Tell me." Su Ge didn't know much about Byron City.

"It was the capital of the Byron Empire, the starting point of Byron's travels, and the source of the mysterious development of mankind. According to the relevant content I know from the Dead Sea Scripture. At that time, when we first met, there was no difference between humans and beasts, and they were all covered in red. They had long hair, ran on their limbs, had no intelligence, and only had a desire for flesh and blood and animality. In other words, humans in that era had no souls.”

"Emperor Byron was the first orc to awaken to wisdom, and gradually his wisdom evolved into a soul. He found that the world was full of blood and horror, and he hoped to improve this situation so that other orcs could become like him. ”

"For this purpose, Emperor Byron embarked on a journey. Records say that he went to the world of fire to seek wisdom, but was blocked by the terrifying lava monster. After he left, he came to the kingdom of giants without fear of danger, hoping to pray for the giants' blessings. The king can give himself the answer. But humans are too weak, and the giants can't hear the emperor's cry after all the hard work."

"Byron the Great did not despair. He continued his journey with a will that far surpassed all others. Later, after going through many hardships, he came to the goblin country with infinite wisdom. The kind and brave Emperor Byron was recognized by the goblins. They told Emperor Byron that there is a sacred treasure deep in the extremely dangerous dungeon, and if you get that treasure, all the orcs will have souls."

"Byron the Great resolutely stepped into that dangerous dungeon. After going through a lot of hardships and nine deaths, Byron's soul communicated with a great being. Then Byron the Great used his wisdom to defeat that great being. Being, took away the treasure.”

"From then on, with Emperor Byron as the starting point and the racial bloodline as the link, other orcs gradually possessed souls."

After listening, Su Ge said with a strange look: "There are too many loopholes in this story, right?"

Hal laughed and said: "After all, these are records in myths and legends. Do you think those myths and legends are logical?"

Su Ge recalled the Greek mythology he had read when he was a child. There were a lot of childish battle plots in it, and he said clearly: "Okay."

Hal continued his story.

"Orcs with souls quickly differentiated themselves from other species. They would use weapons, build houses, form settlements, and fight against enemies together. As Byron the Great, who also held the treasure, grew up with the treasure, he also possessed other orcs. Powerful abilities such as communicating with the dead, controlling the souls of the dead, etc.

"However, the generous Emperor Byron did not enjoy this gift alone. He formed these things into a replicable system, allowing others to gradually possess similar abilities. This was the earliest mysterious system."

"Human beings with a mysterious system became more powerful and multiplied rapidly on the earth, and the territory of the Byron Empire became larger and larger. But one day, Emperor Byron who held the treasure suddenly went crazy. People said that the terrifying treasure controlled "

"Almost overnight, a terrifying curse fell on everyone, and the huge empire was destroyed."

"How was it destroyed?" Su Ge asked.

Hal shook his head: "I'm not sure. Later, for some reason, all the curses were separated from people's bodies and were firmly bound by a certain existence in the city of Byron. The concept of cursing all humans changed to cursing Byron. city."

"The terrifying and eerie city makes everyone feel panic, and people are constantly praying that this city can disappear from this world, so that they can completely escape from the nightmare."

"Then, the city of Byron disappeared under the squeeze of all mankind's thoughts."

Su Ge said calmly: "Of course no one wants to see used and discarded garbage every day. It is natural to throw it into the garbage dump."

"Yes! People didn't know that Byron City was pushed into the abyss by their thoughts at the time, nor did they know that the abyss was completely connected to the world."

“When people were happy that Byron City had disappeared, they discovered that a huge shadow had been created on the original land of Byron City. That shadow would forever block the sunlight, preventing this land from receiving sunlight. People began to call this place the cursed place. As people developed, they also called this place the place of darkness. Later, people called this place the Valley of Star Eclipses. Until recent thousands of years, people liked to call it there. It’s called the place of night.”

Hearing this, Su Ge suddenly said: "So the place of darkness is the former site of Byron City?"

Hal nodded: "Very few people know this secret, even the March Church. This is because these contents are only recorded in the Dead Sea Holy Book."

"The Dead Sea Scriptures, I remember, are legendary ancient books found in a blood-red sea that symbolizes absolute death. But all the text in it cannot be deciphered. Judging from the corners of the decipherment now, it only records part of it. Contents of Byron’s Travels.”

Hal nodded and said: "Yes. That is indeed the Dead Sea Holy Scripture, but it is only the apocryphal canon of the Dead Sea Holy Scripture. The canon has always been at the bottom of the other end of the Dead Sea."

"The bottom of the other side?" Su Ge frowned slightly, and then suddenly said: "The other side of the Dead Sea is the Blood Mist Holy Pool!?"

Hal said with satisfaction: "As expected of a bell holder, his thinking is as fast as thunder and lightning."

Su Ge recalled the strange structure of the entire planet and continued: "Then the shape of the real Dead Sea should be like an hourglass with a huge side and a very small side."

"It can be understood this way, and this very small side is the source of the Dead Sea, the Holy Pool of Blood Mist. In ancient times, the Dead Sea was pale white and filled with the bones of various ancient creatures. Later, due to the brewing of the Holy Pool of Blood Mist, The excess blood essence seeped through the gap, and over time, the white sea turned into blood red, and the bones were completely corroded by the blood, and the essence was absorbed by the blood mist holy pool."

Su Ge exclaimed: "There are so many secrets in this world."

Hal clenched his fist and said, "It is precisely because of absorbing the essence of countless ancient creatures that the Blood Mist Holy Pond can give birth to a weird race like ours."

"No race in the world can be said to be weird or not. It's just because their narrow thinking and shallow knowledge cannot recognize your existence." Su Ge said seriously.

Hal laughed happily and sighed: "Every time I hear you speak, I feel excited and happy."

"Okay, let's get back to the topic. Are there any special reactions in Night Land recently?" Su Ge asked seriously.

Hal nodded: "Yes, from a high altitude, the shape of the shadow in the Night Land is squirming regularly, as if some extremely huge existence is stretching its body, and it also seems like a giant insect is breathing slowly."

"On the other hand, recently I have obviously felt that the coldness in the Night Land is getting heavier and heavier."

"chill?"

"This kind of cold air seems to appear from the air for no reason, causing the overall temperature in the night land to drop by five degrees. At the same time, this kind of cold air is completely beyond the reach of normal people. On the third day of receiving the cold air, fifty The individual suddenly went crazy and mutated.”

"What kind of mutation?"

"Countless sticky things that were dark and sand-like appeared all over the body, and strange tentacle-like limbs seemed to be formed outside the body. The flesh itself also mutated, not only full of a foul smell, but also sprouting many characteristics of ancient creatures. ”

"Characteristics of ancient creatures..." Su Ge fell into deep thought.

He wasn't asking about those characteristics, and he didn't need to. Because these have nothing to do with those creatures, only the abyss is relevant!

Hal suddenly said, "Oh! By the way. The day before yesterday, the Wolf Blood Warriors stationed in the Land of Night suddenly found my children and said some strange things."

"What?"

"They said that if they went crazy, they hoped that my children would kill them all directly, preferably completely chopped up, without any mercy."

"…………What about the others?"

"The last sentence was what the leader whispered before leaving: When the day of fulfilling the covenant is the day of reunification."

"The day of fulfilling the covenant is the day of reunification... It seems that I have to go to the Wolf Blood Legion again when I have time." Su Ge clenched his fists.

Today, Su Ge still doesn't understand what reunification is, so he doesn't want to miss any information related to reunification.

After talking with Hal, Su Ge walked around the Kingdom of God again. After making sure that there was nothing else that needed to be dealt with by himself, he slowly woke up.

There was fog outside the window. Turning to look at the wall clock, it was already five o'clock in the morning.

After getting up and stretching his body, he put on a black cloak, picked up his cane and walked out.

The entire college was completely blocked by a huge fog, with visibility less than two meters.

Such fog often occurs here all year round, and people have become accustomed to it.

In order to deal with this situation, the Steam Workers' Union was even paid to make a batch of strong light lamps with strong penetrating ability to ensure that they would not get lost and traffic safety.

This thick fog can easily make people feel insecure. But it doesn't matter to Su Ge.

After stretching his body and doing some simple warm-up exercises, Su Ge began to run in the morning, which he never stopped throughout the year.

This is one of the best ways for an ordinary person to keep fit.

While running, Su Ge fell into deep thought.

Yesterday, Hal told him that the content was very shocking and critical.

Hal knew the whole process, but didn't know the details. And Su Ge had more or less known the details through the Holy Grail of the Soul and Jellos.

"That treasure is the Holy Grail of Souls, and who was the great being that held the Holy Grail of Souls? Was it the Ancient God of Souls? Or someone else?"

"Although the authenticity of the process is unreliable, there should be no problem with other aspects."

"The lava beasts of the Fire Kingdom, the giants that stand tall and straight... and finally the fairies with wisdom. Currently, there are no records of lava beasts and those giants that stand tall and straight in all ancient books. What does the world look like at the beginning of the world's restart?"

Su Ge became more and more curious.
