Pirate Kingship

The core parish of the church, and also the center of the silver law of the entire continent - the Holy Silver Empire.

In the past year, this most powerful empire among the church countries has been devastated by war and has long lost its former prosperity.

If you switch to the perspective of flying beasts, you can only see the devastation, the decline of people's livelihood, and even a very fresh sea of ​​blood and corpses from the sky.

There are not many city-states that have not experienced war, such as the art capital Florence, which is strong in itself and qualified to make both sides of the religious war afraid.

Other states and autonomous cities of all sizes are not so lucky.

Especially the first batch of states involved in the religious war are the most unlucky.

After nearly a year of war, and the invasion of [Queen of Eternal Night] Margaret.

So far, about 25%-40% of the population has been wiped out.

The core of the core, three quarters of the population of Wittenberg died, 65 percent of the population of Pomerania died, and one quarter of the population of Silesia died.

These are only the statistics from the main war zones. Some small towns in remote corners were completely wiped out and turned into ghost towns.

You should know that the total population of the empire is only 30 million.

The contradictions of the religious war are difficult to reconcile. So many people died and it has not been resolved. It is even just the beginning. If there is no intervention from the power of the creator, it is normal to fight for another 20 to 30 years.

In addition, the two queens of the Kingdom of Castile will decide the winner and the throne will be settled. This Orthodox diehard should join in soon.

Other Protestant countries will definitely not sit idly by and watch the Protestant princes in the empire fail.

At that time, the status is almost comparable to two crowns, and the [Saints] who crush the normal kings will definitely go to the battlefield with [Lance of Longinus], [Crown of Thorns], [Holy Grail], [True Cross], [Golden Ark of the Covenant] and other zero-level holy relics.

It is foreseeable that it will eventually turn into the "First World War" of the Silver Continent.

It will not end until the big and small kings and the new "captain" of the world are separated.

At the same time, the chaos and disputes from east to west across the continent have already torn apart human society in various senses, and religious thoughts and nationalism have risen.

If it weren't for the emergence of Byron, the "Messiah", the five countries of the Bay People, which are now likely to be conquered by colonists, are probably worse off than them.

From the perspective of an observer, with foreign enemies on the side, we should put aside our prejudices first and establish a united front to fight the enemy together.

But if all human beings were so rational, the world would have been peaceful long ago, and there would not be a situation where "pacifying the country before resisting foreign aggression" would be taken advantage of by foreign enemies.

For a civilization that has lasted long enough, history is never new.

However, since the emperor of the empire and the saints of the Orthodox and New Churches have implemented this strategy, they must bear the consequences of this strategy.

In particular, the Orthodox Church has returned to its old business in the dark millennium, fighting this "suppression" war in a bloody suppression mode.

And every human being is a law node. After many city-states were killed into a wasteland, even the law network began to be intermittent.

[Silver Law] has weakened to the lowest point since the Silver Age, and there are holes with no signal everywhere.

The effect of suppressing evil spirits and grotesques is almost equal to nothing.

Once it is night, evil spirits and grotesques that have been extinct for hundreds of years emerge in an endless stream.

To make matters worse, even the plague has begun to spread again.

People walk together on the road, and the person next to them will suddenly fall down and never get up again.

They dare not cry when their relatives die, because there are green ghost lights and shadows everywhere under the night sky, and occasionally hear the crows and dogs barking, which makes people suspect that they have come to the ghost realm.

After a long time, it was even hard to tell whether they were human or evil spirits. The atmosphere of death and despair filled the cities.

The place where the believers arrived was the divine domain of the gods. Since there was a systemic loss, the only thing they could do was to mobilize the clergy to fill it with manpower.

The firefighters traveled all over the empire with various holy relics and strange objects to make up for the losses to the maximum extent.

"The Holy Heart is full of the infinite mercy of the Creator, loving everyone, removing people's sins, and curing people's diseases. Pray for the Lord's mercy, heal and comfort the patients and their families."

In a front-line city where the two sides confronted each other, a team of [Night Watchers] composed of clergy and cemetery sequence extraordinary people, shaking bells in their hands, slowly moved forward in the gloomy fog.

In the middle of the team, four judge knights carried a coffin, in which lay a human skeleton shining with precious light.

This is not an adjective. The jade skeleton was covered with all kinds of gold and silver jewels.

Dazzling rubies, sapphires, emeralds, pearls, gold, etc. were inlaid in almost every part of the skeleton, which was full of precious gems and magnificent.

As the clergy recited prayers, circles of holy light rippled from the skeleton, like the rising sun in the morning, quickly clearing away the evil breath wherever it passed.

Those new evil spirits that were not up to standard did not even need these clergy to take action, and they quietly melted in the holy light and died like weeds that no one cared about.

Among the many treasures taken out by the clergy of various Orthodox and Protestant churches and monasteries, almost half were similar gemstone corpses.

They were not ordinary people, but the remains left by saints and saints over the past thousand years, which could be regarded as an alternative "true holy relics".

He was purified by devout faith and holy light during his lifetime, and after his death, he was decorated with gems by the clergy of the same sect. Basically, cathedrals that are old enough enshrine similar beings.

In the hands of this team from the new sect is Clemens, one of the twelve [Saints] of a certain generation a thousand years ago.

If Mr. St. Byron had not taken the forbidden path, he would most likely receive the same treatment after he died of old age or died in battle.

Of course, Byron didn't feel it was a pity.

The [Night Watch] team walked all the way to the edge of the city, and the leader, a fourth-level bishop, stopped.

Because the front is the area occupied by the Orthodox Church.

Although both parties have an agreement not to harm medical staff and night watchmen, they themselves will not look for trouble and take risks on the other side's territory.

"Go back."

The bishop had just given the order, but before the team could turn around, a shrill scream suddenly came from the mist on the opposite side:

"Ah——! There are heretics snatching sacred objects, please send a signal for help!"

They immediately realized that the [Night Watchman] arranged by the Orthodox Church opposite must have been attacked by unknown forces.

They all looked at the leading bishop.

It stands to reason that they should help when encountering such an external situation, but the two families are now hostile.

What if the Orthodox army arrives and asks, "Why should you help if you are not causing trouble?"

A piece of divine logic, these people are going to be numb.

Before the Protestant night watchman could make up his mind whether to go over or not, the screams from the opposite side had already become one, mixed with a crazy laugh.

Obviously there seems to be only one attacker, but his strength far exceeds that of the Night Watch team. From the sounds of the attack, it is clear that it is a one-sided massacre.

Immediately, a female voice with a sonorous tone shouted angrily in the night:

“You come against me with swords and spears and bronze halberds; I come against you with the name of the Lord of Hosts.

Joshua did not withdraw his stretched out spear until all the inhabitants of Ai were wiped out! "

A bolt of iron-blooded holy light burst out, piercing the pale fog in the night sky.

It turned into a huge rust-colored cross in mid-air. The strong wind blew up, and the fog in the distance was suddenly blown away.

Let them see clearly a heroic nun, and the gun sword in her hand suddenly turned into a red meteor and rushed towards the powerful enemy who ambushed them.

The violent airflow behind her extended out two long storm wings, allowing her to move so fast that she almost broke the sound barrier.

Someone in the team recognized her identity:

"That's the [Gunner Sister] of the Orthodox branch of the 'Holy Armed Forces Cathedral', the fourth-level heroic bishop Andrea!

She even learned the "Gospel of the Kingdom of Heaven". Who knows which angel she converted to?

Now, using ‘Holy Descendance’ to deliver the strongest blow comparable to that of a god who has awakened himself, it should be able to defeat the enemy, right? "

But the next moment, the red meteor's charge came to an abrupt halt. After a loud noise, the [Gun Sister] shot back and hit an already dilapidated building like a cannonball.

The pale mist blown away by the strong wind closed again, but they couldn't even see clearly who the enemy was.

"That's... legend!"

I don't know who suddenly whispered in a low voice.

Everyone could not help but tremble slightly, some made crosses on their chests, and some made triangles.

Then, slowly retreat.

One step, two steps, turn around and run without any order.

They didn't even notice that the [Saint] Monsignor Clemens in the coffin had knocked off a gem-encrusted front tooth due to too much vibration.

In the past year, successive religious wars have been fought, and the real [Night Watch] has suffered heavy losses.

The quality of the manpower transferred later was seriously insufficient, and not everyone could meet the standards of a night watchman.

Organization motto:

"We swear to protect this world and fight against the 'deep sea'!"

"We are hidden in darkness and have no access to power!"

"We are sword-wielders, and one day we will die by the sword!"

The organization itself is burdened with a powerful curse from the Sea of ​​Origin: "No one dies well." In other words, no one can live to death.

Even the core departments have been depleted to this extent. It is no wonder that the Church of the Old God and various conspirators hiding in the dark have jumped out to challenge their authority one after another.

Apparently this time is no exception.

Plop!

[Gunner Sister] Andrea was knocked to the outer wall of the building, bounced back and fell to the ground. She tried to get up again, but found that she had completely lost consciousness from the chest down.

This means that her spine is most likely broken.

The nun's heart suddenly sank. Then she looked at the priests she led next to her. All of them had fallen to the ground, and there was no one alive anymore.

Decapitated heads, severed limbs, and torn apart. They all died horribly.

Ta-ta-ta.

There was a sound of footsteps deep in the mist, and Andrea tried her best to raise her head and glare at the person, or something that looked like a person.

I saw a short clown dressed in colorful clothes, jumping up and down like he was stepping on springs, with a laughing face that was stiffer than a wooden mask.

Andrea felt a chill in her heart just by taking one look at it.

She was obviously only about the same height as an eight or nine-year-old child, like a stunted dwarf, but the force of the punch that knocked her back made her think she had hit a giant dragon.

But all the irrationality disappeared completely when she saw the [Golden Ghost Card] embedded on the clown's forehead.

And also realized who was really ambushing them.

"Hipster Clown!"

The dwarf-like clown walked to the middle of the corpses and picked up a large parchment book from the ground.

It looked like a heavy brick, with a white monster cowhide cover, mithril edges at the four corners, and a gold-plated title on the cover - "Gospel of Heaven"!

And this one is the original version.

The original "Gospel of Heaven" is the first collection of "divine revelations" obtained by many devout clergy over thousands of years.

It contains not only the knowledge of the Creator himself, but also the knowledge of all the gods eaten by Him.

Although this book is just a key to open the treasure house of the gods' knowledge, only by completing the first step of the ritual "Angel Advent" can you gradually get more knowledge from the angels who fit each other.

Even so, it is a top magic book that is far more powerful than the "Bloody Mary's Gourmet Recipe" in Byron's hand and the "Luoyan City Textbook" in the Deep Dive Church.

It does not exclude any profession or even taboo route, and it is highly versatile no matter who holds it.

But the disadvantages are also obvious. In addition to the need to bear the pull of the gods and the curse of the Creator's "crack".

The user can only pry a very small part of the power. Whatever path a person takes, he can only exert the corresponding ability.

Unless another person who unites all things appears and can forcibly integrate all powers, no one can exert its true power.

In addition, the content inside has long been circulated, and the Orthodox Church gave it to the [Night Watch] as a normal holy relic to patrol the night.

But I don't know that someone has already set his eyes on this treasure (Chapter 565).

This thing may be arsenic to some people, but it is sweet honey to others.

The clown tossed the big book in his hand with satisfaction, laughed twice, and stuffed it into his trouser pocket. The task was simpler than imagined, and even the prepared back-up was not used.

On the surface, Andrea had completely lost the power to resist and realized that she was no match for him, but she silently chanted the honorific name in secret:

"The historical corrector who moved the warp and weft of the times, the origin of all changes"

A tingling sensation came from her back, and even the fatal injury of a broken spine was recovering at a very fast speed.

It was obvious that this gunner sister was also a follower of the [Ten Thousand Winged Angel] and the [King of the Wild Hunt].

Ever since Byron's realm of "All Things Return to One" reached 1%, he could actively pull people with the help of the Ten Thousand Winged Angel.

Whether it was Orthodox or Protestant, there were countless followers of his hidden in major religious orders, monasteries, and major secular churches.

Entry: [My rules are rules] Modify the rules so that all his followers don't have to shout "Praise the Ten Thousand Winged Angel" at every turn. It is extremely secretive.

No one expected that the Orthodox Church's original move to spread the "Gospel of the Kingdom of Heaven" would make a wedding dress for Byron, making him the biggest winner.

Those clergymen who practiced the Gospel of Heaven were continuously sending foreign aid to the lonely [Ten Thousand Winged Angel].

The longer the time was delayed, the stronger his potential power would be.

It was not completely hopeless to say to the Pope: "You are not pious."

Unfortunately, none of Byron's opponents who were still alive were simple characters.

The nun had not even finished reading a three-part honorific name,

another clown with an extremely burly figure and a [Golden Big Ghost Card] on his forehead suddenly walked out of the shadows and crushed her head with a "click".

Then the two clowns looked at each other and disappeared out of thin air as if by magic.

Only the last strange laugh was left:

"Our Lord asked us to send the things to the person whose name cannot be mentioned, and let him send it to the Eastern Continent to give it to the [Jackal God].

If we also have the [Travel] power, the great [Fateful Clown] will definitely not rely on outsiders.

I really want to kill him, ha ha ha"

At the same time, Valhalla Hall of Valor, the ninth floor of the Golden Palace Grazheim.

Violet noticed that Byron beside him was stunned for a moment.

"What's wrong? Is there any problem here?"

Byron waved his hand to indicate that it had nothing to do with Valhalla:

"It's okay, just now there was the first case of the death of the followers, and the incarnation has gone to take the first angel of the "Flower Mountain Heaven Kingdom". I will meet her after returning from Valhalla."

He raised his head again and continued to observe the giant tree growing from the center of Grazheim in front of him.

After he and Violet ascended to the gods, they were finally qualified to enter the ninth floor of Valhalla like Jack Harold, the [Whale Hunter] back then.

This is the hall of the gods, with golden walls, copper gates, green lawns, and white clouds, light, glory, and wisdom.

According to legend, this is the core of the Wanmin pantheon, and the Wanmin's great secret treasure is hidden in it.

Like the Ark of the Mother of Monsters, there is also a big tree in the center of the Golden Palace, which should be the "world tree" in the Wanmin legend. There seems to be no difference between the two in essence.

Legend has it that the gun barrel of [Guaranteed Gungnir] is made of branches of the world tree.

However, this world tree is not a real existence like the former tree of life, but more like a projection of the scene in the kingdom of [God of the Wild Hunt] Woden in the collective subconscious.

And the so-called "great secret treasure" is just a rune character engraved on the trunk.

The above introduces the cause of Ragnarok in the previous era, as well as the prophecy that the Snail Era will eventually come, so that Bay residents should prepare early to promote human exploration of the three continents and clear the "Echidna Triangle Gyre" as soon as possible.

And the words "come to me" appear again.

But there is still no explanation of where He is.

It only says that if you find a place called the "three-phase point", you can find traces of Him.

Byron couldn't help but frown:

"I hate the Riddler who speaks unclearly. Can't you say something clearly at once?

And Woden said that the 'triple point' is the source of all disasters except the source of matter? What the hell is this? "

As we all know, the material world is equivalent to a sailboat floating on the sea of ​​source material. Small cracks in the world are beneficial to the world and have created today's extraordinary system.

In Byron's opinion, the cracks in the world that can threaten the gods should be the most powerful zero-level cracks.

Just like the one exploded by the [Ancient Sun God] and [Lord of the Fourth Change] Diwu in the previous generation.

There is far more than one zero-level crack.

When the six Old God Church coalition forces besieged the five nations of the Gulf, the purpose was to tear apart the Silver Law that blocked the zero-level rift in the mainland, so that the Old Gods who died outside could crawl back again.

But I can't explain why the gods died so cleanly. Although the fifth-level gods and above in the mythical era are not as exaggerated as the Ten Thousand Gods, they are indeed quite numerous.

With such a huge base, there are always instances of good luck in escaping the Great Flood or Ragnarok.

But the reality is that no one survived and died cleanly.

It kills more cleanly than the [Ghost Hand Sword].

The fundamental reason lies in the existence of the "three-phase point".

Just look at the situation in the sea of ​​human collective subconscious and you will know that the countries of the Silver Continent use faith as a bond to form a continent and float on the sea of ​​source matter.

For example, the Bay People, Taíno, and Quechua people are like small islands, holding together to resist the tide of energy.

This shows that the Sea of ​​Sephiroth has been invading the material world from the spiritual world.

As long as the creatures in the material world benefit from the Sea of ​​Origin, their awakened spirituality will passively establish contact with the Sea of ​​Origin.

Therefore, no one who is extraordinary or has spiritual qualifications can escape, but those lower-level mortals may not be affected.

And the "triple point" is that medium.

“So the ‘three-phase point’ is the source of the extraordinary system of this world, and everything is three from here.

But we still haven’t figured out what the three phases are? "

Byron thought hard and had no idea.

Violet, who was beside her, thought for a while, then stretched out her hand, and a ball of water appeared in her white palm.

The water ball changes one after another. One moment it is water, another moment it is ice, and the next moment it expands countless times and becomes invisible water vapor.

Then he considered his guess and said:

"I do know that matter has three phases: gas phase, liquid phase, and solid phase. The three states can convert each other and coexist.

The value of temperature and pressure where these three phases coexist is called the triple point!

For example, when water is at its own triple point (temperature is 0.01°C, water vapor pressure is 610.5Pa), water, ice, and water vapor can coexist and balance each other.

It can even sublimate directly from ice to water vapor without passing through the liquid state.

If it is used to make mummies, it will definitely produce a mummy with the least water content, the crispest, and the most lifelike appearance. "

After hearing the expert explanation from Violet, Byron suddenly understood after being startled.

“Isn’t this the same principle used to make fruits and vegetables crispy by freeze-drying machines in the previous life?

The nature of the Sea of ​​Origin is unknown, but its form is indeed water, and the 'triple point' is the largest hole leaking from the side of the world's ship.

Blind student, you discovered Hua Dian!

Moreover, there was a magical triple point in my hometown in my previous life, does this mean that it is also possible?"

Thinking of this, [Secret: Prophecy, Kingship and Wild Hunt God Woden's Prophecy of Racial Revival, Historical Influence 69] The solution density jumped from 73% to 78%.

Once they complete the Corridor of Truth in the Eastern Continent and find the location of the "triple phase point", they should be able to complete the final solution density and achieve racial rejuvenation.

At this time, the raven sent back an urgent message.

The "rape" left the old continent in a hurry and set sail to the sea!
