I became the master of the alien world

Chapter 336 Escape

The four major temples worship four gods respectively, namely Ancient Adora, the water god, Yinxiris, the fire god, Mosilogan, the wind god, and Osirik, the earth god.

Each temple has its own envoy. Only the envoys and the clergy with a small number of temples in this continent can use magic without external help.

If other people want to use magic, they must use magic crystals to do so, but in terms of fighting spirit, this continent is completely blank.

However, this continent is not peaceful now. Starting about five years ago, the most powerful country in the continent, the Kingdom of Holy Nicholas, suddenly experienced great changes. Prince Carlos suddenly launched a coup and killed the original emperor.

Then the Holy Nicholas Kingdom officially issued a declaration of unification to the entire continent, and began to use them to manufacture mechanical weapons, and began to fully invade other countries, completely ignoring the opposition of the four major temples.

Because the Kingdom of Holy Nicholas controls the most advanced machinery manufacturing technology in the mainland, and relies on powerful mechanical weapons, in a short period of time, the Kingdom of Holy Nicholas controls nearly 1/3 of the land on the mainland.

And its ultimate goal is to bring the four major temples under its control, because there is always a legend circulating in the continent of Aenodia that there are huge secrets hidden in the four major temples.

As long as that secret is unlocked, the Chaos Emperor Dragon, the guardian of the continent sleeping deep in the continent, can be awakened, and gain endless power and eternal life from him.

In order to resist the invasion of the Kingdom of Holy Nicholas, other countries on the mainland formed alliances one after another.

But in front of the mechanical weapons manufactured by the Holy Nicholas Kingdom, the alliance's resistance pales in comparison.

Those several-meter-tall mechanical soldiers, mechanical behemoths, and nearly ten-meter-tall mechanical giants left the mainland Allied Forces completely helpless.

Even the weakest mechanical soldier can fight head-on against a cavalry team of hundreds of people, not to mention the fast-moving mechanical beasts and the astonishingly destructive mechanical giants.

In the five years of war, the Allied forces of the mainland were retreating steadily. Especially the core of the Allied forces - the capital of the Bavarian Federation, the second most powerful country on the mainland - the thick city wall of Markdu, known as the first city on the mainland, was in ruins.

It collapsed under the heavy attack of the huge mechanical giant, and the Allied forces were already in a state of extreme collapse.

At present, the army of the Holy Nicholas Kingdom has attacked the Mara Plain not far from Venice, the water city where the Water Temple is located.

However, due to the large number of rivers in the Mara Plain, it seriously affected the operation of the mechanical weapons of the Kingdom of Holy Nicholas. In addition, the Temple of Water did its best to send its own priest warriors to assist the Allied forces in the battle.

Under the double pressure of magic and terrain, for a while, the Allied forces and the troops of the Kingdom of Holy Nicholas were evenly matched.

But even so, the Water Temple is still under the shadow of the threat of the Holy Nicholas Kingdom, and the situation is not optimistic.

On the lawn outside the Temple of Water, Edward was lying there alone, looking up at the blue sky.

At this moment, a small head suddenly appeared in his field of vision.

"What's wrong? Edward, I see you often stay here every day, what are you thinking about?"

"Well, it's Your Highness Aniya. It's nothing, I'm just thinking about the past."

"What happened in the past?" Ania thought thoughtfully, and then simply sat next to Edward, "What can make you so obsessed with your thoughts? Is it your girlfriend?" Ania's last words

Edward was almost shocked to death. He quickly sat up and said, "What and what. I'm just worried about the safety of my companions."

"Oh? You said it was nothing. Your face turned red."

[What kind of messenger is this? She is just a gossip girl.] Edward thought secretly, but no matter how much he said that the other party saved him, it would not make him angry, so he simply turned around and stopped talking to Aniya.

However, Ania had no intention of letting Edward go. When she saw Edward turning around and ignoring her, she immediately approached him again.

"By the way, Edward. You still haven't told me how you came to Airumet. At least explain this matter to me clearly."

Looking at the quirky little girl in front of him, who looked like she was not letting herself be clean, Edward thought about it and said, "I told you, can you leave me alone for a while?"

"Of course, I swear to the Fire God Yin Xiris, I will."

"What kind of ghost oath is this?" After hearing Ania's oath, Edward almost became so angry that he vomited blood.

"Okay. The story may be very long. I hope you can listen patiently to the end. That's it..."

However, thinking that if he didn't say anything, Ania would pester him even more, so Edward sighed and decided to compromise.

"..., then I lost consciousness. When I woke up, I was already here. Your Highness Aniya, you...

Hey, Your Highness Aniya, what do you mean by this?" After Edward finished telling everything he had encountered, he suddenly realized that Aniya beside him was already crying like a woman.

"Wow, sister Ellie is so happy. She has a brave knight like you to protect her..."

"Uh...has this girl been moved to tears by hearing too many second-rate stories from bards?"

"Okay, okay, Your Highness Aniya, don't cry anymore.

Otherwise, if others see it, they might think that I have done something disrespectful. I have told you everything you want me to say, so you can leave me alone now."

"Well, Edward, don't worry. I will definitely find a way to help you go back. For the happiness of sister Ellie..." After saying that, Ania stood up immediately and said those words in a solemn tone, but it looked like

Seeing the tears on her face and her silly expression, Edward felt nothing but speechlessness and shame.

But Aniya finally kept her promise, and immediately turned around and ran away after saying what she just said.

"We're finally gone." Edward breathed, feeling relieved.

"By the way, Edward, can you be my guardian knight for the time being before returning to Sebion?"

Just when Edward relaxed a little, Aniya came out of nowhere, startling Edward. He really didn't know how that ordinary-looking girl appeared next to him without saying a word.

next to me, and it’s a regular behavior.

"Okay, okay. Your Highness Aniya." Edward, whose mind was a little short-circuited, obviously didn't know what he was talking about, and he casually agreed.

"Hey, I knew Edward would agree. But you have to keep your word, otherwise the Water God will punish you!

Have a good rest, I'm going back first." Before Edward realized that he had been fooled, Ania immediately ran back to the temple.

"Oh my God, why am I being fooled around by that girl?" After finally realizing what he had just done, Edward felt depressed.

"But maybe it's just a child's play, there shouldn't be any problem." Edward looked at the direction where Aniya disappeared from the temple and said to himself as he consoled himself.

But that night, when Edward saw the temple guards knocking on his door and bringing him the badge symbolizing the guardian knight of the Water Temple and a silver sword, he was almost frightened and fell off the window sill where he was sitting.

Go down.

Especially when the guard repeatedly warned that the sword was the guardian sword that protected the world, this made Edward feel even more depressed. It was obvious that Ania was never joking with him...

After sending away the guard, Edward looked helplessly at the badge and sword placed on the table.

After a long time, he picked up the big sword and looked at it for a while. This sword was similar to his original Shadow Oath. Except for the color, the size was similar.

The only difference from Shadow Oath is that this sword is relatively light, only about two-thirds of the weight of the original Shadow Oath.

Moreover, there are four grooves on the sword from bottom to top near the hilt, which seem to be inlaid with something.

But no matter how he looked at it, Edward never felt that there was anything special about this sword.

"It seems that I have to stay with that kid during this period. I hope she can really think of a way to let me go back."

Edward reluctantly pinned the badge on his chest, then put the sword beside him, sat on the windowsill and slowly closed his eyes.

But not long after, there was another knock on the door.

"Come in. The door is unlocked."

At this time, another temple guard walked in.

"Lord Edward, the divine envoy is looking for you again in an urgent matter. Please come with me." Edward nodded, jumped down from the window sill, then picked up the sword of protection and followed the guard out.

The two of them walked one behind the other, walking slowly in the long corridor towards the main hall.

Suddenly, Edward stopped.

"Hey, stop pretending, don't think I can't see it. Only a fool with such murderous aura can't sense it." Seeing Edward say this, the guard suddenly tightened his expression, but immediately relaxed.

"Sir, what are you talking about? I don't quite understand." "Are you pretending to be stupid? Don't forget to wipe off the blood next time you kill someone, so as not to make yourself covered in the smell of blood."

The guard couldn't help but take a step back, and at some point a dagger with faint blood stains appeared in his hand.

Suddenly, he rushed toward Edward, trying to catch him off guard.

According to ordinary people's standards, this person's skills are pretty good, but this time he found the wrong target and the wrong time.

The moment before his dagger was about to touch his body, Edward stretched out his right hand and easily grabbed his wrist. Then there was only a crisp sound of "click", and then a "dang" sound, which was originally held in his hand.

The dagger has already fallen to the ground.

But that guard was also a ruthless person, and Edward knew very well that the blow just now was enough to completely crush the bones of his wrist, but he actually didn't say a word, and instead raised his left leg and kicked Edward quickly.

Edward was a little surprised by the guard's behavior, but then he tugged with his right hand and pulled the unfortunate guard over, then let go of his hand, and then hit him in the face with his right elbow.

With a "bang", the guard hit the wall on one side like a kite with its string broken. After a slight struggle, there was no more movement. "Oops, it seems that I used too much force."

Seeing the guard lying on the ground, looking like he was dying, Edward scratched his head in frustration.

But at this moment, he suddenly felt a cold wind behind him.

Then he hurriedly stepped aside and saw several sharp arrows grazing his body and nailing the wall on one side.

"It seems there are quite a lot of guests tonight." Edward shook his head, raised his sword of protection, and looked at the four more opponents who appeared in front of him.

At the same time, in the main hall of the Water Temple, a group of people wearing guard armor were cutting down all the few priest warriors.

The originally holy hall was now as miserable as Shura Purgatory.

"High Priest Ventura, why are you doing this?" Aniya, who was protected behind her by several priests and warriors, held her pet in her arms and looked angrily at the same person in front of her who was also wearing water.

Men in priestly robes of the temple.

"Haha, Lord God Envoy. Those who know the current affairs are heroes. At present, the Kingdom of Holy Nicholas has unified most of the continent. If you want to compete with the power of the four major temples, it is simply an egg hitting a stone.

We advise you to give up your resistance and surrender to us to avoid ending up with the same fate as the Wind Temple." Ventura ignored Aniya's anger and just replied lukewarmly.

"Wind Temple, Garo...what did you do to Garo?" Aniya's face immediately turned pale after hearing Ventura's words.

"Humph, it's nothing. But if Your Highness Aniya insists on continuing to resist, you will see her soon." The murderous intent on Ventura's face was getting stronger and stronger at this moment.

"You, please don't forget that I am a divine envoy. Gu Adora will not let you go." "Hahahaha, God Envoy, are you a little confused? You forgot about the holy water you drank at night.

Did you forget that it was mixed with dirty blood?"

"You..." Aniya seemed to have been stepped on by someone, and her face became worse and worse.

"Can you, tainted by the dirty blood, still be able to use the power of the water god as usual? If you can, I would really like to see it."

At this time, the last priest warrior also fell beside Aniya, and the remaining guards began to approach Aniya on the altar step by step.

"You guys, don't come over. Edward, come and save me!" Seeing Ventura's men walking towards her with a ferocious smile, Aniya's mind went blank at this moment.

"Haha, just scream. No one will come to save you even if your throat is broken. That guy from Sabian should be dead by now."

"It's a pity to say that. Lord Ventura, your subordinate's knife seems to be a bit blunt and unable to cut off my head." Just as Ventura was laughing proudly, a voice suddenly sounded from the side.

"Edward Trent. Impossible, how are you still alive?"

Ventura watched in surprise as Edward's figure flashed past him and was already standing next to Ania.

"Edward, it's really you!" Ania, who was in despair, seemed to have seen a life-saving straw at this moment, desperately holding Edward's arm.
