Lord of War

Elsie's arrival is definitely a surprise.

The Dark Moon Spear is now one of the most powerful church knight orders on the Miracle Continent, perhaps even the prefix "church" can basically be removed.

In the entire Western Continent, there will never be more than five knights who can be compared with the Dark Moon Lance—of course, the Pure White Wings are not included. The combat power of the only ninth-level knights in the entire continent already belongs to another. A realm level, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is above all the knight orders in the entire Miracle Continent.

Sean's Void Principality also has a knight order called the Scarlet Knights.

However, the current level of this knight order, even if it is a level of fame, perhaps for some small duchies or kingdoms, no one is willing to provoke the Scarlet Knights, but for those powerful kingdoms or empires , the level of the Scarlet Knights is not enough.

From this point of view, it is possible to judge what level of knights the Dark Moon Lance is.

Quasi-eighth grade.

Sean really couldn't imagine how Elsie, who was weak and weak and seemed not much better than a girl, managed to create such a powerful knight order. Xiao En believes that as long as this knight group makes a group charge, even the steel wings with the effect of the impact shield skill will definitely be pierced. And the gun of the dark moon must also pay a certain price.

For a seventh-level army that has surpassed the sixth level and reached a degree of qualitative change, the level of combat effectiveness is not something that can be explained by a simple calculation formula.

There was a rhythmic knock on the door.

A smile appeared on Sean's face: "Come in, the tea is already brewed."

So, the door opened.

Walking in from the door was Elsie Boulder, the current head of the Knights of the Dark Moon Gun.

He didn't wear any armor, just a simple set of coarse linen clothes and coarse trousers, and even the shoes were the most common straw sandals. When such a person walks on the road, everyone will only think that he is one of the poorest poor people, and he may even be a slave or something. No one will think that he is the famous Dark Moon Spear in the Northern Continent today. Captain of the Knights.

certainly. If he wasn't holding a black spear in his hand, it would be more like it.

It was a long gun that even Sean couldn't think of any words to describe and describe it - it was about two meters long, both the body and the tip of the gun were pure black, without any strange patterns, symbols or marks . It looks like it was forged from a piece of pure black ore, but it feels inexplicably quiet. And the most important thing is that Elsie held this spear in his hand, which actually made his sense of existence a bit thinner, and even Sean's eyes were involuntarily attracted by this spear.

"Ding." There was a soft sound of metal impact.

Sean's eyes changed slightly. Immediately, as if breaking free from some strange induction resonance, the whole person instantly woke up.

"Huh?" Elsie was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the black long sword placed by Sean in the corner, "Sacred weapon?"

"Well, there are no artifacts." Xiao En nodded with a smile, but he obviously didn't want to bring the topic closer to the Black King. This guy was locked up by him with great difficulty, so that he wouldn't keep shouting, "You Is it the Gun of Dusk?"

"Yes.

"Elsie nodded, and the eyes looking at the spear in her hand softened a lot." This is one of the five artifacts left by Goddess Twilight, but it is better than the other four in terms of divine power alone. Both are much bigger, because it's the only one that grows with the Goddess all the way. ... Also, my mother's relic, so I always carry it with me. "

"Your mother's... relic?" Sean blinked, looking a little shocked.

In his memory, or during the period when he was playing games, although the Gun of Twilight was the most powerful artifact of the Twilight Church, from the beginning to the end, no one was able to use this artifact at all—— As the only known uncontrolled artifact in the player community, it attracted countless players to join the Twilight Church. But the ideal is beautiful, but the reality is extremely cruel: no one can activate the related tasks of this artifact.

At that time, after countless players tried for a long time, they finally had to give up. They even thought for a while. The existence of this masterless artifact is simply a supplement and perfection of the game background. Unexpectedly, the core of the unsealing of this artifact is not in the Twilight Church in the Western Continent, but in the Boulder Family, which has long been shattered in the Southern Continent—if it wasn’t for Sean, Elsie would have died long ago , this artifact is impossible to come out.

Thinking of this, Sean couldn't help but give the middle finger to those mission plans in the game—how could such a sinister thing be discovered by players.

But soon. Sean thought of another question.

The previous owner of the Twilight Gun appeared five hundred years ago, and Elsie actually said that the gun was a relic of his mother. Doesn't this mean that Elsie's mother lived at least seven hundred years? Being able to live for such a long time is not an ordinary existence, at least it is infinitely close to the level of a super strong!

Sean looked up and down and began to look at Elsie.

"What?" Even Elsie couldn't help but feel weird after being sized up by Sean, "Why are you staring at me like that?"

"Sanctuary?" Sean asked.

"See?" Elsie smiled, with a very happy look on his face, which showed that his happiness was sincere, "Because of the help of several artifacts, the analysis and understanding of the rules are very fast, and then Coupled with the awakening of the bloodline, I am now in the middle sanctuary, and not far from the upper sanctuary...but unfortunately, my understanding of the laws is only limited to the dark law of the goddess."

Elsie's mother is not an ordinary existence, so Sean would feel strange if Elsie has no special blood. But in this way, he could understand why Paqiuli was able to become a "free style creator". Obviously, this also has something to do with her bloodline ability.

Of course, Xiao En, who had just woken up, soon realized another problem: "How many artifacts? Don't tell me, the only three remaining artifacts of Twilight Church are in your hands."

"I'm sorry, you really guessed it right." Elsie laughed, showing a smug look, "Except for the Twilight Spear, the Night Armor and Twilight Shield are all in my hand These two artifacts were specially made by the goddess after she grew up. Although they have been with the goddess for a long time, they are not as old as the Twilight Spear after all, so their power is weaker than that of the Twilight Spear. ... But this The three artifacts were all owned by the goddess before she ignited the divine fire, so they were able to pass through the darkest period smoothly."

Sean nodded knowingly.

It is said that before the goddess of twilight grew up. She was just a knight servant, and on the day she left the army, her teacher gave her a spear as a gift. This long spear is also known as the Twilight Spear today, and it is the first artifact that truly witnessed the goddess from being weak to powerful, accompanying her throughout her life. Therefore, among the five artifacts left by Goddess Twilight in the world, it ranks first.

The Armor of Night and the Shield of Twilight that followed were specially crafted after the Goddess of Twilight stepped into the sanctuary. This was specially created by the victor to celebrate the glorious victory of the Twilight Goddess that year. It is said that it was precisely because of this victory that the Twilight Goddess realized the magnificence of the night for the first time, so the Armor of Night and Twilight The shield of light has the special ability to make the goddess of twilight almost invisible in the night environment.

Relying on the spear, shield, and armor, the Goddess Twilight fought more and more bravely without any suspense, until she finally ignited the divine fire and rose to the Kingdom of God, on an equal footing with the gods.

As for the Eye of Luminous Light, it is a helmet, an artifact created in the Kingdom of God after the Goddess Twilight became a god. Its function is very single, that is, it can see through the shadows. Under the power of this helmet, even enemies who escape into the astral world will be pulled out mercilessly, not to mention those sneaky guys hiding in the shadows.

And the Shadow of Darkness is a cloak, forged by the Goddess in the kingdom of God when she participated in the battle of Ragnarok. However, when she made this cloak, the God of Darkness had already fallen, so this cloak was actually made by taking part of the Godhead and power of the God of Darkness. This also made the Goddess of Twilight transform the power of the law from night to darkness, thus obtaining part of the divine power and priesthood of the God of Darkness.

As one of the few gods who did not fall in the battle of Ragnarok, Goddess Twilight is indeed lucky. It's just that the gods who didn't fall in that battle were basically all suffered heavy injuries. She had to seal herself to sleep, but the Twilight Goddess still left behind some backhands—her descendants established the Twilight Church with the five artifacts left by the Twilight Goddess before she fell asleep. The God of Dawn also had to step sideways.

But it is a pity that since the battle of gods involving several gods in the Age of Ashes, the Twilight Church has gradually declined, and even two of the five powerful artifacts were destroyed. If it weren't for the armor of night and the shield of twilight, it was the equipment that the goddess of twilight had before she ignited the divine fire. I'm afraid it will also be broken in that battle - if that's the case, I'm afraid there will be no surviving twilight church.

But in any case, Elsie's appearance and return to the Twilight Church did make the Twilight Church once again have the possibility of prosperity-maybe others don't know, but Sean heard Elsie say something about him in these years Afterwards, he knew clearly: Anyone who can be recognized by the twilight gun is the darling of the twilight goddess, and they are the apostles of the gods who are recognized and trusted by the gods. , much higher.

Apostle, this is the ultimate power of the church.

The current Elsie cannot be regarded as an apostle—because the so-called apostles are devout believers who have stepped into the kingdom of God. They are able to travel between the kingdom of God and the material world of the gods, which is a very special existence. However, apostles generally don't appear easily. Only during the War of Gods period, when the gods' power of belief in the world is about to be uprooted, can apostles appear. Of course, not all churches will have apostles.

As far as the entire Miracle Continent is concerned, the only church that can guarantee to have an apostle is probably the Morning Light Church.

But as long as the St. Joles Empire is not on the verge of extinction, the apostles will definitely not appear.

"But I really didn't expect that you were assassinated as soon as you arrived in the Western Continent. It's hard for you to survive." After listening to Elsie's understatement and a few words about his life in the Western Continent, Sean also agreed. I had to sigh, "Is Casius all right?"

"Thanks to Uncle Cassius' desperate protection along the way, otherwise I wouldn't be where I am today." Elsie smiled, with a look of nostalgia on her face, "Now Uncle Cassius is Twilight The regiment commander of the shield branch, this is a heavy cavalry unit that is good at charging and encroaching, and it is not mainly about piercing through and cutting the enemy's formation."

Knights. Unlike cavalry.

The so-called knights are powerful knights who can ride on horseback and fight on foot when dismounted, and are basically silver-level knights. It is different from the cavalry unit once it falls into the enemy's line. Or if the charge is blocked, it is basically equivalent to the situation of complete annihilation. Even if the knight group is trapped in the enemy's formation, it can still exert extremely terrifying combat effectiveness. Because of this, there are some special knights who do not aim to penetrate the enemy formation or cut the formation. They often use the enemy's blooming combat method-that is, directly charge the enemy, and then attack the enemy's formation. Fight on horseback.

"I heard that the acquaintances are all fine. I feel relieved." Sean laughed, "But then again, why did you suddenly come to my side?"

"It's a long story." Elsie laughed.

"It's okay, tell me, I have plenty of time." Sean smiled and poured Elsie a cup of tea.

In fact, Sean does miss his friendship with Elsie. Before that, he was still worried that Elsie had gone to the Western Continent for so many years, and he also got rid of the situation of that weak boy in one fell swoop, and became a big man with a pivotal position in the Western Continent today, and he didn't know if there would be any changes. But at this moment, seeing that Elsie still looked the same as before, Sean let go of the heart he had been carrying all along.

Elsie was not polite to Sean. He picked up the tea and took a sip, then his eyes suddenly lit up: "It's small flower tea."

"Well, your favorite." Sean smiled. He still remembered that when he was in Elsie's territory, Elsie lived a very simple life, not like a nobleman at all, and only occasionally drank When taking a few sips of tea made from small wild flowers that can only be picked in Mordeg, this guy will look a little bit more noble, "I have been picked a lot, so you can rest assured. There is plenty of time."

"Okay." Elsie took a few more nostalgic sips, then smacked her lips, as if reminiscing about something, "Originally, I planned to borrow the Kingdom of Ryan. Then I will send you a message and go directly to the Millennium I went to the Covenant Empire. But I didn’t expect that the situation in the Millennium Covenant Empire is more chaotic than I imagined, so I thought about it and came to your vacation.”

"On vacation?" Xiao En, who was pouring tea, froze for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile. "It's a shame you figured it out... But what kind of chaos is on the side of the Millennium Covenant Empire? I heard that the situation has not been stabilized? The East and South lines of the Millennium Covenant Empire are now fully contracted, and the undead Although the size of the army is very strong, there is no good entry point for a while, so the two sides have temporarily stalemate."

"It was originally like this, but now the church has intervened." Elsie said, "You should also be aware of the chaos in the Western Continent and the Northern Continent. There are too many churches mixed here, and almost all the churches are crazy. They also want to expand their missionary area. This small-scale invasion of the bone plane just gave these guys an excuse, so now basically all churches send people to the Millennium Covenant Empire..."

Elsie gave a look you know.

"Well, I really mourn for the Millennium Covenant Empire." Sean laughed, and the laughter was quite hearty - as long as he thinks that the Thousand Year Covenant Empire now has a large area that cannot be recovered, and then he has to divide his mind to maintain it. Few people can bear the deterioration of law and order brought about by these churches in China, "But there should be quite a few powerful churches here this time, right?"

"Originally, there should be pure white wings of the Church of Dawn, but the situation in the Maggie Empire has been a bit unstable recently, so the Church of Dawn dare not send out the strongest knight order in its own country." Elsie thought for a while, and then said Said, "And I don't know why, the other knight orders of the St. Joles Empire seem to have missions, and they are currently in a state of full-strength deployment... The dynamics of the Northern Principality Federation are also a bit strange, and the Church of God of War is also unresponsive. What’s moving and subtle is that the St. Joles Empire’s shrinking defense line seems to be vaguely targeting the Northern Principality Federation.”

Sean generally knew about this little secret.

At present, the Church of the God of War has become Emily's voice, and she can issue any oracle as she wants. Therefore, under such circumstances, the Northern Principality Federation has faintly developed into a unified country with a federal parliamentary system. If it was in the past, the St. Jors Empire would definitely wreak havoc, but now the St. Jors Empire has lost so many powerful people. Therefore, the imperial power, who was unwilling to be only a puppet, also took a posture of resistance. Therefore, before the civil strife was resolved, the St. Joles Empire would definitely not cause any more trouble.

In this way, it also gave the Northern Principality Federation a great opportunity for development.

same. The Maggie Empire is obviously aiming at this state-there is not much in the whole country, but the country with the most magicians, obviously has a faster brain than others. With such a powerful and terrifying neighbor, if the St. Joles Empire dared to transfer the White Wings away at this time, the Maggie Empire would definitely launch a war.

"So, there aren't many powerful churches left?" Sean asked rhetorically.

"Well, I don't want to join in the fun, so the Church of Twilight has not been involved in the war for the time being. The situation of the Church of the Goddess of Life is also quite delicate... The chief saint is on your side, and she brought a group of priests to help you Garrisoning the wild fortress..." Elsie suddenly laughed when she said this, "Haha, you are really good enough, you haven't changed at all, this kind of ability to take advantage of the fire...Now the Millennium Covenant Empire is Calling you a wolf, you took the wild fortress while they were not paying attention."

"Nonsense. If I don't enter this fortress, those undead army can really go south smoothly." Sean rolled his eyes, "I just limit the destruction of that undead army to a certain range for everyone's benefit. .”

"Then let me ask you, after those undead retreat, will you return the wild fortress to the Millennium Covenant Empire?"

"What the hell." Sean rolled his eyes again, "The wild land is mine, and I've been thinking about how to get these six gates back, and you still want me to return the wild fortress? Even if I want to return it , will the Millennium Covenant Empire dare to come and take it?"

"Haha. You are still as shameless as ever." Elsie laughed loudly, "It's probably like this anyway. Now the Millennium Covenant Empire is in a mess, and various situations are emerging. And I heard that several of the bones invaded An undead king is at war with some strong hermits, and the war has spread so widely that the Millennium Covenant Empire dare not send troops to fight against the undead army at all, and even the scouts have to arrange for legendary strongmen to investigate."

"Anyone can beat Lake and the others so that they can't be distracted?" Sean also became curious, "What kind of hermit is that? So strong? Isn't this a horror that has lived for hundreds or even thousands of years?"

Elsie shrugged her shoulders: "Who knows....Anyway, I'm a missionary and I can't preach, and I can't fight a war. I just brought someone to your place for vacation. Wait until the situation over there is a little more stable, When the army of undead begins to prepare for the destruction of life again, I can just enter the battlefield directly from the wild fortress."

"Okay, that's up to you." Sean didn't care, anyway, he and Elsie were good friends, and of course it didn't matter if this guy wanted to stay here to rest.

"By the way, I heard that you are now at war with the Fascist kingdom. Would you like me to help?" Elsie suddenly approached Sean, looking a little wretched.

"You are an orthodox church knight of the Twilight Church, can you participate in the royal war?" Sean was really frightened by Elsie this time.

"What's the matter, we'll take off the church emblem when the time comes, or you can replace our armaments, who knows that we are church knights." Elsie waved his hand, "In the western and northern continents, the church knights If I didn't go to fight the autumn wind occasionally, I would have starved to death long ago... Do you think the churches in the Western Continent are all rich? If there were really so many believers and so rich, those churches in the Western Continent would not be in a hurry All of them went to the Millennium Covenant Empire."

"How dare your Church Knights in the Western Continent play guest roles as robbers and bandits."

"Don't put it so harshly, what kind of robbers and bandits, at most we are just guest mercenaries." Elsie curled her lips, "Don't worry, we have done this kind of thing many times, we are familiar with it, absolutely not There will be no accidents, and you will not be condemned by the Peace Council. ... And you and I are so familiar, if you hire us, I will give you a 20% discount, how about it?"

Sean looked at Elsie speechlessly: "I was wrong."

"What?" Elsie was a little confused.

"I always thought that you hadn't changed, but I didn't expect you to have changed." Sean said with a look of regret, "The old you wouldn't do such a nasty thing."

"Cut, forget it." Elsie gave Sean a sideways look.

"Let's discuss the cost." Sean said without hesitation, "If I provide armaments, how much will it cost?"

"You don't want it." Elsie curled her lips, but it was just a show, "It depends on how long you plan to hire us. One hundred thousand gold coins a month, if you hire us for more than half a year, you will count half a million. how?"

"Fuck, you are robbing!" Sean immediately slapped the table, "It's too expensive! There is no way there are such rich people in the Western Continent!"

"Don't you look at the level of my Dark Moon, one of the five strongest knights in the Western Continent!" Elsie said without giving in, "One hundred thousand gold coins a month is already very little, okay? Well, we have an absolute employment guarantee, and the order issued by the employer requires no bargaining!"

"250,000 gold coins for half a year."

"You slaughtered it too hard. You cut it in half. Is there such a bargain as you?"

"Okay then, two hundred and fifty-one thousand gold coins.... You have to be considerate of me. It's easy for me to manage such a big country. You don't know how much it costs. I think about money. It hurts. Seeing that we are good friends, you can't be so black-hearted."

"You have to be considerate of me, I have 10,000 people waiting for me to cook.... 480,000 gold coins."

"You obviously only brought five thousand people here." Xiao En said with a look of disdain, "I will be in charge of logistics and armaments, two hundred and fifty-five thousand gold coins!"

"Wars kill people, and I want to give pensions to my knights." Elsie refused to budge, "And I have to give an explanation to those old men in the church, let them turn a blind eye , so this up and down also needs to be managed, 460,000 gold coins."

"You really think I don't understand anything! What about the friendship you promised! Now who else in the Twilight Church can command you, it's not up to you. Two hundred and sixty thousand gold coins, no more, I It's really poor."

"I did a survey before I came here. If you just sell a few magical weapons, you can earn millions of dollars....Looking at our former friendship, it's only 450,000 gold coins."

"It's too dark." Sean firmly disagreed. "It's said that talking about money hurts our relationship. We used to have such a beautiful relationship. Do you have the heart to let money tarnish it? Two hundred and seventy thousand."

"Talking about relationships hurts money too much. If you don't have money, it's absolutely impossible. Four hundred and forty thousand."

"..."

Standing outside the study door, listening to Elsie and Sean's relentless debate inside, and exposing each other's old background, scars and dark history, Cassius, Gnar, Stalin, Sarah standing outside the door Ince and the other four looked at each other, not knowing what to say, and their expressions were full of embarrassment.

ps: There are a lot of things recently, so annoying... I am so tired every day. I try my best to keep updating, but sometimes I get really tired and get down on the ground, please forgive me a little bit. And to express my apologies, my latest updates are as big as possible, so I won't say anything about splitting.
