Age of Apocalypse

The ancient memories and inheritance make Perth deeply trembled and even fearful.

The Tyrants, they are the descendants of Linus, the son of Tiamat - the hundred-headed serpent - the god of demons. The blood of the original giant god gives them mountain-like bodies, control of the power of ice, and represents the depletion of life.

and panic.

Although through the contract of all evil and the "Blood Pearl Fruit" one can quickly gain power and have the powerful appearance of a tyrant, causing the blood to fall and the soul to fall into Tartarus, this has always been just a prayer to the devil, a transaction at the cost of the soul.

.

Just like a fox, even if it's covered in tiger skin, it's not a tiger. Even if it's covered in human skin, it can't cover up the fishy body odor.

But the power of the tyrants goes far beyond that. They will quickly become stronger as they devour the flesh and blood, and eventually turn into monsters that only know how to devour. The fangs growing in their mouths will drip venom that withers all things, and even sinful blood.

It will erode the vitality of life, which Perth cannot tolerate.

After returning to Tulip Castle, Perth issued a "confidential order" not to cause panic among residents, and Nader issued a statement.

He said that the murderer must be brought to justice, so before that, the Tulip Territory will be on alert, a curfew will be implemented, and the night patrol team of the Public Security Department will conduct strict patrols.

Finally, Perth called Old Chuck over and said sincerely, "You are the great druid of the forest enlightenment, and you are also the elder who has always served my mother. Originally, I should respect you extremely.

But you know, my wings are still very weak now, and my brother Moshe de' Medici is also eyeing me.

Therefore, the Tulip collar cannot withstand any turmoil, and such evil and bizarre incidents must be dealt with quickly and severely stopped."

Old Chuck heard this, although he was very happy in his heart, but he also knew what Perth meant, and said, "Don't worry, wherever your light and will point, I will follow your glorious steps!"

When Perth saw this, he thought that he was indeed a mature man, and he just wanted to be elegant and don't have too much kung fu. He couldn't help but smiled bitterly and said, "You don't even know what I want you to do for me. This makes me so embarrassed!"

"The moment your mother entrusts you to me, I will fight for you, protect you, and follow you loyally as your family member." When Old Chuck saw this, he smiled kindly with a nostalgic look on his face.

He looked at Perth and said.

Hearing Old Chuck's words without hesitation, Perth simply said directly, "I hope you will use the magical power of the Archdruid, turn into a silent nightingale, and follow them to find their hiding place.

I will never allow these hateful bastards to do whatever they want in my territory!

Since the age of mythology, they have committed more crimes than the vast sea!"

At this time, looking at Perth's disgusted and firm tone, as if he had a blood feud, Old Chuck couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he is indeed the descendant of the Oribos Protoss in the Origin Era, and the descendant of Phobos and the ancestor of the human race.

Thinking about it, Old Chuck stood up, bowed and said, "I will follow your will, what you want now."

Perth also continued to deploy secretly, and even asked Nader to investigate privately.

Sure enough, Nader directly placed a bright red fruit with an alluring sweet fragrance right in front of Perth's eyes.

Nader looked at Perth and said, "This is a red fruit, also called the "Blood Pearl Fruit." It is recorded in ancient classics that it is the fruit of desire and original sin, and is the fruit of Tiamat, the mother of five dragons.

The chaotic fruit of resentment bathed in blood.”

Perce was very familiar with the color and luster. It was not until Nader's explanation that he remembered that the color was not the same as the buds on the earth bag that Old Chuck found.

I couldn't help but ask, "Isn't this a sacrificial object used to sign a contract with the evil god? How did it become the fruit of desire and original sin?"

Nader thought that it would be just that simple, so he told Perth the news he got, "I also heard from an alchemist friend of mine that this is when Tiamat, the five-headed dragon mother, became a fallen angel.

Tears of resentment and venom, fruits that appear after being contaminated by the rotten air of the underworld.

It has the bright red color of dried blood. Although it can purify its own blood, if it cannot overcome Tiamat's remaining resentment, its soul will be eroded and it will become a puppet that can be controlled by others.

So I think those children may have been bewitched by this red fruit."

He was still full of anger when he spoke, because he never imagined that these people would attack a child who knew nothing!

Later, Perth asked, "Isn't this a sacrifice that those people cherish so much? Why would they give it to children at will?"

After all, in Hogwarts, even if the gods have died or fallen asleep, the sacrifices given during people's sacrifices are never given to others casually.

But Nader knew that there was nothing awe-inspiring in the thoughts of that kind of person, and explained, "But if one fruit can be exchanged for several, or even a dozen fruits, I don't think they will care. In fact, there

This pursuit of power has entered the hearts of paranoid and crazy people. They don't have much devout beliefs, and most of them only have exchanges of interests.

So their sacrifices are never called "rituals," but "contracts."

While speaking, Perth thought about it for a long time, and finally after a moment of silence, he asked, "Are you talking about the circus that came with the caravan?"

As for why Perth thinks of the circus, it is not only because it is the only circus currently, but also because Perth always feels a little repelled or even disgusted by them.

At first, Perth just thought it was because he was a little sensitive and didn't pay too much attention to it. But facts have proved that don't ignore God's intuition easily, even for a short moment, it may cause countless troubles.

Then, as expected, I heard Nader say with some surprise, "Yes, Sir, I thought you didn't seem to be interested in them, but I didn't expect that you would think of them immediately."

Because only an existence like the circus can sneak in, confuse the eyes, and even come into contact with unsuspecting and innocent children.

Perth didn't explain this, he just sneered, wondering who would offend him, how dare he offend me?

In a blink of an eye, he said to Nader with a serious face, "Find out where you live, call Keith and Old Chuck, we will go tonight!"

"Those are all crazy evil fanatics, how could you take risks so easily?" Nader hurriedly said "no" several times and tried to persuade.

But only Perth knows that perhaps only he can truly see them defeated.

But this could not be explained clearly, so Perth looked at Nader and said, "I once said that I am not only a noble but also a knight. I am a lord who has the responsibility to protect my subjects from harm."

Upon seeing this, Nader knew that he could not change Perth's decision, so he could only retreat and request, "Then please be sure to take Luca and Jack with you, it will be safer."

You know, they are not sane people, they are simply beasts and scum!"

........

Huayuan Street in Tulip Town is the widest and flattest white stone brick in the territory, and it is also the main avenue that directly runs through the town.

The only Tulip Tavern in the territory named after the territory that provides meals and accommodation, and is also one of Perth's absolute private properties in the territory, is opened here.

Caravans and mercenaries coming and going, even residents and wandering poets will gather here to brag and talk about their ideals, and some people will even have some unexpected and beautiful encounters.

However, since the curfew, the Tulip Tavern, which was originally brightly lit every day, has become quiet, and even turned off the lights early.

Perce took Old Chuck, Keith, Luca and Jack to the room deep in the corridor following the waiter's guidance.

Looking at the deeply closed door, Perth could feel the filth and evil that was permeating the air, which made him, who was already a god, very disgusted.

And Chuck's head was flashing with majestic fluorescent light, and he clutched the emerald mulberry staff tightly in his hand, ready to fight at any time.

When the waiters around saw this battle, they ran away and hid.

"Bang!" Keyes raised his leg and kicked the door open. The big sword in both hands was swirling with green light and slashed away directly. A green hurricane roared in the room, and the energy of fighting spirit reflected his serious expression.

As it fell to the ground with a "crackling" sound, Old Chuck looked at the broken sawdust flying on the ground, his face turned dark instantly, and said, "It's a fake puppet, and he has already run away."

"Bastard!" Case's face turned red with anger, he raised his sword and slashed at the half-remaining puppet, cursing angrily!

........

At night, Case couldn't help but feel downcast, and even felt a little defeated. This was the first time in his life that he had been teased like this, and it was in front of his lord and subordinates.

Old Chuck watched Keith sitting a little lonely on the steps of the castle, staring at the bright moonlight in a daze.

He is holding a Ru porcelain wine bottle with tulip carvings in his hand. The pot belly and long neck of the bottle set off the freshness and refinement, which makes people unable to put it down. This is the plum wine newly produced in the castle given to him by Perth, even the wine bottle it contains.

All are specially made.

"Why are you here, Mr. Chuck?" Perth asked when he saw old Chuck sitting next to him.

Watching Keith take the bottle, Old Chuck gathered up his robe, looked at Keith jokingly and said, "Let me see how our future territorial commander sighs into the moonlight?"

The direct commander of the territory, which can only be established by at least the viscounty. The highest military officer of the territory of the Central Council is also the leader of the knights of the lord, and has jurisdiction over all armed forces in the territory except the patrol team.

In this regard, even if Case had a different view or even agreed with Perth who promoted himself from a commoner to a noble status, he did not have much expectations for it.

After the refreshing and sweet plum wine seemed to calm his anxious heart, Keith smiled and said, "Don't be ridiculous, the title of the Kingdom of York is not that worthless.

If there is no big contribution, let alone Earl Feilengcui, even the four barons of the Nanshan Earldom will not easily allow a direct territorial viscount of the Feilengcui family to appear in the territory."

After all, there are only so many interests. If the power of the nobles is too strong, it will cause the decline of the ruler. This is the consensus of all countries in the Hogworth continent, and it is also the unspoken rule that maintains the kingdom's rule and the noble system.

The two drank wine to the moon and expressed their opinions. As a wise archdruid, Old Chuck's interpretation of Case was very immediate.

And early the next morning, Case made a plan for the deployment of his knights.

Almost as soon as old Chuck got the news, Keith completed the arrangements for this time.
