Alien paradise

When Chaoyang was about to speak, Elodie, who had been listening outside the hall through his vision, suddenly said, "Ask him if he knows who the woman guarding the door is. She doesn't look like a border girl." People in the garrison.”

Chaoyang changed his mind and repeated the angel's words.

"She...I do have an impression. Whenever Elko came to check on me, he would be polite to her and call her Mrs. Living Fire."

Lady of Living Fire?

"The charred house outside was all her fault." Elodie muttered, "If I hadn't escaped quickly, I would have been confused by now."

"No more?" Chaoyang asked with raised eyebrows after waiting for a while.

"Uh... I really don't know much about her. Do you care about her? She is really good-looking. Although she must be in her thirties, she is still full of charm. Did she also run away with Elko?"

"Okay." Chaoyang interrupted him. This woman is obviously a believer of a certain god, and her ability is quite good, otherwise the beam of wishing power would not be reflected directly in the sky. In addition, this was the first time he saw the crimson light. It was different from the pillars of faith in Glory Castle, and it was also different from the blood-red light of the evil god.

After thinking for a while, he decided to ask another question, "Do you know of any gods whose beliefs are related to fire?"

"Ah?" Lan Qi didn't expect that the topic would turn to this angle. He was stunned for a moment before replying, "As for the question of belief in gods, I have to ask my housekeeper to find out. Except for the goddess of fertility that I believe in, I have no respect for other gods. Don’t know much.”

"All your people are dead, massacred by the kingdom's soldiers." Chaoyang said expressionlessly.

"..." The earl was startled and couldn't help but shrink back. "My Lord, they are simply... worse than animals! By the way, I remembered it. It seems that there is a god and flames. Relatedly, the emblems are the flame, the anvil and the sword, and are called the Hands of the Furnace by his followers!"

This guy...does he think he is intimidating him?

Chaoyang shrugged, "It doesn't matter if you don't know. What I need is accurate information, not a random answer. I will understand this later, and your proposal... I have to say no. The rule of this city The winner will be the Paradise Sect, and no matter who wins the civil war in the end is the Yue Gui Family or Duke Longjiu, this will be the Free City of the Paradise Sect."

"Le-Paradise Sect?" Lan Qi didn't respond, "What kind of sect is that?"

"It's normal that you haven't heard of it, because my Lord has just awakened. But once you get familiar with it, you will understand it if you get in touch with it more." Chaoyang patted his shoulder, "I will conduct a simple investigation later, mainly See if you have committed any serious crimes against your own people. If not, you will still be an earl, and I will not confiscate your assets, but the fiefdom will definitely be lost."

"No, no, no, no..." He shook his head in panic, "You, do you know what you are talking about? Although I don't know what the Paradise Sect is, but by doing this, you are trying to compete with the most powerful sect in the country at the same time. The two sects are enemies! When the news gets out, I'm afraid you and your sect will be classified as a cult!"

"There is an evil god behind the cult. This is not something that can be changed with just a few words." Chaoyang said disapprovingly, "Actually, there is still a way for you to regain your position as the leader."

"any solution?"

"Join us and learn the laws and regulations of the Paradise Church. Starting from being a clerk, you will gradually climb to the position of mayor of Qianlimbao. In a sense, the mayor is the same as your previous position, but it cannot be passed on to your children. "

Ranchi Brandon was stunned.

Does this sect think it can survive for a long time? He actually allowed himself to rise step by step. He thought he was starting a company!

"But considering that you are familiar with the local culture, your starting point should be higher than the average person. This is undoubtedly a decent job. If I were you, I would never miss it." Chaoyang walked towards the door after finishing speaking. , "Your family has been sent to the shelter. Go there to reunite with them and wait for notification!"

…

After sitting in the bedroom for a long time, Lan Qi found that no one really cared about him anymore, so he put down the chain and slowly walked outside the door.

There seemed to have been a war here, and all the furniture was burned to charcoal.

After passing through the relatively complete atrium and arriving at the front yard of the mansion, the unpleasant smell of blood instantly penetrated his nostrils.

There were bloodied bodies everywhere.

There are men, women, and even children. He could tell from the remaining clothes that some of the people were servants working for him.

These people were brutally killed by the kingdom's garrison.

But their bodies are not left undisposed of. Some civilians are carrying the bodies, and the people commanding them are also civilians. God knows how these guys dare to step into the lord's mansion.

When those people saw him, no one left their work to salute him.

Perhaps it's because of his dirty appearance that he doesn't look like a noble earl lord at all.

Lan Qi stumbled out of the castle and gasped in shock at the scene at the gate! I saw the bodies of uniformed Kingdom soldiers being carried onto carriages one by one, and there were more than a dozen carriages piled with corpses in the distance! They drive slowly on the streets, seeming to symbolize the end of an era.

The collapsed fortresses on both sides of the entrance, the sandbags riddled with bullet marks, and the black smoke-emitting horses all indicate that a great war occurred here. The fierce gunfire heard before was not an illusion, but someone actually defeated the Elko Camp. The team of more than 2,000 people disappeared without a trace within a day.

The order of Thousand Limburg was broken down.

A chill surged into Lan Qi's heart, making him shiver.

Although the border soldiers imprisoned him, they also represented a kind of order. Now that order disappeared, the count knew what the city would become. He grabbed a civilian and asked, "Where is the shelter?"

"They said it was...Akarian Temple."

Lan Qi didn't ask who "they" were, but walked faster towards the church. It was located in the center of Thousand Limburg and was previously managed by the Church of Abundance. He didn't know what the situation was now, but a few old priests alone could not stop the ambitions of the plunderers.

He must find his wife and children as soon as possible, then use money to recruit reliable mercenaries, and then return to the secret room underground in the castle. Because Qianlimbao may become a battlefield for gangs to fight for power at any time. When it gets completely dark, human nature will also be wiped out.

Lan Qi had no doubt that the Paradise Cult had enough force to protect themselves, but they could not bring new order to the city in one day.

Perhaps the chaos that followed was what Mr. Chao was happy to see. Because a small piece of stability in the chaos is the most precious resource, and in order to obtain this resource, people will be forced to become his believers.

The gunshots that ring out from time to time are the best proof of this speculation.
