Quadruple split

Game time PM18:31

Violet Empire, Western Territory of Marshall Territory, Suburbs of Dieyan City

A rickety figure loomed in the night. He had black hair mixed with a little silver. He had an average appearance and was between forty and fifty years old. He was walking hurriedly on a small road.

There are many travelers like him. Before the news of the Marshall family's destruction spread throughout the empire, even in this land that is destined to change hands, there are too many people continuing their daily lives. After all, For the citizens and travelers, it doesn't really matter who is in charge of this place.

However, not many people will walk along this road alone after dark. After all, further west is the border, and the Fire Claw Territory is not a place suitable for sightseeing or business, so apart from the occasional mercenary and adventure Apart from walking this road for various tasks and rewards, few people would wander around here, especially at night.

The Moon of Song and the Moon of Poetry are the two least pleasant months every year. Not only do many monsters fall into a highly active state during this period, but there are also the longest nights and the coldest temperatures in the year. It is definitely not a wise idea to walk alone at night in such a sparsely populated place when the sun is shining.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Suddenly, an old voice suddenly sounded in the air, causing the silent traveler to stop abruptly.

"who?"

He looked around vigilantly, his hands shrunk under his cuffs quietly clasping two short knives, his gloomy eyes wandering around wildly and uneasily, but he didn't find a single figure.

And the voice still sounded calmly from all directions, with the same tone: "It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that you shouldn't appear here, Buffy Marshall."

"I don't know why you saw through my disguise"

The man was stunned for a moment, and then sneered. The wrinkles on his face quickly disappeared, and his rickety back suddenly straightened. His whole temperament changed drastically in an instant, even though he was still wearing the same inconspicuous linen clothes. , but that still couldn't cover up his majesty that belonged to a superior person, and the viciousness and malice deep in his eyes.

"Come out!"

His gentle and elegant expression was horribly distorted, and thin blood vessels protruded from his forehead. He gritted his teeth viciously and said, "There is no hiding from your disguise!"

Two seconds later, a black cloud in the sky suddenly and quietly dispersed a little, casting a bright moonlight that shined straight on an old man not far in front of Buffy Marshall.

"Although it seems a bit like showing off, I still want to explain."

It was an old human man wearing an old priest's robe, who looked to be eighty years old, and had a pair of goatees. His slightly shriveled right wrist was wrapped with a faded cross with no visible texture, and he held a book in his arms. A thick holy book with white beard and hair, a pair of light gray eyes looked at Buffy Marshall calmly: "It's not that you used some kind of evil magic to make me show up, but you happened to use it when I was about to show up. Some kind of witchcraft."

Buffy Marshall licked his chapped lips and said coldly: "What's the difference between the two?"

"Of course, because um, sorry, please wait a moment."

The old man first turned the holy scripture that had fallen down in his arms 180 degrees and hugged it again, and then continued: "Because if you take it out, it will be embarrassing for my lord."

"Oh, your 'master' is quite face-saving."

Buffy leaned forward slightly, folded the two dark daggers in her hands in front of her, and a flash of silver energy appeared on her body. She looked at the old man in front of her murderously: "Why don't I give it to you? How about going to see Him?”

"You can try, Buffy Marshall."

The old man raised his right hand slightly, and the severely faded cross also flashed a silver light, and whispered: "Try to attack me...or kill me."

at the same time

City of Light, Inner City, Dawn Chapel

"I don't know why, but I feel uncomfortable every time I come to this place."

Mo Tan felt the glaring gazes from all directions, smiled dryly and shrugged at the girl next to him: "I really shouldn't have agreed to let you come here to eat."

"The food here is better."

Yuchen stuck out his tongue, shook the pastry covered with a thick layer of cream in his hand, and said happily: "And as long as I promise in the name of the goddess that I will eat it well, I can even pack it up and take it away! "

While Mo Tan walked side by side with the girl on the white marble stairs, he stared at her face intently. He stared at Yu Chen until his face turned red and then sighed softly: "Thank you for your hard work."

"Huh? What's the hard work?"

"Lose weight"

"Eh?"

"I noticed during the first party that you ate very little staple food, and almost no meat or dessert at all."

"ah"

"So it's not actually because you don't like eating it or it doesn't suit your taste, it's just that you're simply trying to lose weight?"

"Woo"

"You neither"

"Stop talking!"

Yu Chen stuffed the half piece of [Small Sweet Potato Cream Dumpling] in his hand into Mo Tan's mouth, and hummed in a low voice with a blushing face: "It's rare that you can eat it freely without absorbing the nutrients. I admit that I'm a little bit It’s not enough to be greedy!”

Mo Tan was caught off guard and was stuffed with a small dumpling, and in the next millisecond he thought of something indirect and choked on the spot. He rolled his eyes and hit his chest hard several times. After letting it fail, he started to scratch his neck. Finally, he saw himself He had already begun to bleed, so he drank two bottles of powerful healing potion to wash it down. He held his knees and panted for a long time before he recovered.

Yuchen crossed his arms and turned his little face to one side, ignoring him.

"You're really not fat."

Mo Tan looked at the girl in front of him sincerely and said from the bottom of his heart: "Not at all, so there is no need to lose weight, okay?"

Yuchen glanced at him faintly and lowered his head in frustration: "You don't need to comfort me."

Mo Tan recited a section of the Diamond Sutra silently in his heart, then looked Yu Chen up and down, and said with certainty: "I really didn't comfort you."

"I'm two centimeters shorter than Xiaoge Xiaodao. But I'm two kilograms heavier than them."

Yuchen continued to stagger upstairs as he spoke in despair.

Mo Tan, who was walking side by side with her, thought for a long time and didn't even think about whether to express his speculation.

【After all, you have big breasts.】

If she bluntly said this to the extremely thin-skinned Yuchen, would she kick herself down the stairs in anger?

However, as if she guessed what he wanted to say, Yuchen added with a limited volume that was only slightly louder than the sound of a mosquito: "I don't want to be louder there. My shoulders are always sore."

"Ahem, let's find a place with fewer people to eat!"

Mo Tan almost yelled to change the topic. He felt that his blood pressure was a bit high now.

"Hey, everyone just wants to get to know you. After all, Mo Tan's previous deeds in Misha County have been spread."

Yu Chen glanced at him with a smile and said with a smile: "I want to take you to the top floor. The scenery there is particularly good. I have already said hello to Sister Saint before, and she said she can take you there~"

"Well, there's nothing taboo about it, right?"

Mo Tan scratched his hair and said hesitantly: "I always feel that there must be some big secrets on the top floor of a place similar to a headquarters. If I accidentally see something I shouldn't see, and Xia Lian suddenly jumps out Tell me that from now on, I will either work hard for the Dawn Sect until death or die directly."

Yu Chen burst out laughing, then waved his hands and said: "Don't worry, it's not as serious as you think. As the place closest to God in the Holy Scriptures, the top floor of the cathedral is often open to worshipers and high-level clergy. You can come and go as you please.”

"Then I'm relieved, uh, what is this."

As soon as Mo Tan was halfway through speaking, he was startled by a two-meter-square, golden round tray that suddenly fell down not far away.

"elevator."

Yu Chen jumped up first, and then waved to Mo Tan: "You can reach the Thousand Lights Dome in one go with this, it's amazing."

five seconds later

"Well, it really happened all of a sudden."

Mo Tan staggered down from the 'elevator' and murmured with a pale face: "I feel like I almost vomited my stomach out."

Yu Chen immediately trotted half a step, knelt down and patted Mo Tan's back gently, and apologized belatedly: "Well, I just thought about it now. Maybe it's because of this that usually only people with higher education levels can come. The speed is a bit too fast, um, do you want me to treat you?"

"No, no, I didn't lose any blood."

Mo Tan stood up staggeringly, looked up at the boundless 'Thousand Light Dome' in front of him, and couldn't help but clicked his tongue and said, "But this place is really spectacular."

There is nothing wrong with this. The 'dome' located on the top floor of the Dawn Cathedral is indeed spectacular. Perhaps due to the influence of some kind of magic, although it is called a 'dome', in fact it does not seem to have one. The so-called 'top' is replaced by a sky, a gorgeous sky that combines morning light, twilight, twilight, starlight, moonlight and even aurora. Each of them has its own territory, and miraculously blends and intersects with each other. It becomes a perfect scene that theoretically cannot exist in reality at all, extending to the endless direction like an endless nebula.

"Hey, I was shocked when I came here for the first time."

Because he is the God's Favorite, there is absolutely no chance that Yu Chen will be harmed in the Dawn Realm. He is not like Mo Tan, who is almost vomiting out his stomach due to the acceleration of gravity. When he saw that the latter was okay, he immediately grabbed his arm. He walked forward with his arms: "There are some good-looking things in there~"

Her big eyes sparkled with joy, like a child trying to share the beauty of everything she saw.

At this moment, Mo Tan, who was eye-to-eye with Yu Chen, suddenly felt that the miraculous scene around him was nothing more than that. If possible, he would like to look at the other person's eyes that could make thousands of lights eclipse for a while longer. .

Then I almost fell over while distracted.

After a moment, as if an invisible line had been crossed, the scenery around the two people suddenly changed. Although the miraculous sky was still the same, tens of meters away to the left and right of Mo Tan and Yu Chen, something suddenly appeared. Pieces of Gothic style, crystal clear, colorful, huge, and beautiful stained glass appeared, with various pictures and scenes that Mo Tan couldn't understand, and it can be initially concluded that they were. The maker's drinking capacity should not be very high.

"Art! This was created piece by piece by the great painter Wa Ding Sheng Dibi, thousands of years ago. The master was a devout believer in the Shuguang Sect and was also called upon after his death. The contemporary pope bestowed the word 'holy' on me, the saintly sister told me."

Yu Chen explained seriously, and when he saw Mo Tan nodding his head in a serious manner, he stuck out his tongue: "But I can't quite understand it."

"Well, maybe you'll understand after drinking two kilograms of white."

Mo Tan also gave suggestions with a serious expression.

"I don't want to. I have a terrible drinking capacity."

Yu Chen wrinkled his nose, held Mo Tan's arm and walked for a while, then suddenly pointed to the left not far away: "Look~"

"What to see"

As soon as Mo Tan said two words, he saw a huge portrait frame appearing in the air more than ten meters away. Inside was a black-haired young man wearing a snow-white robe. A second later, a picture suddenly flashed below the frame. A row of small golden letters——

[The first pope: Saint Simon]

"This is."

Mo Tan was stunned at that time.

Yuchen smiled proudly, tugged on his sleeve, raised his little finger and pointed to the other side: "There's more~"

Mo Tan turned his head and took a closer look, and sure enough he found another portrait frame that appeared in the air at an unknown time. Inside was a woman with wings on her back, long golden hair, and her face was blurred in the light——

[Primordial Saint: Angel]

"Are these the leaders of our Dawn Sect from the past and present?"

Mo Tan blinked, then suddenly looked at Yu Chen and asked with interest, "Are you in there?"

The girl immediately waved her hand vigorously: "No, no, well, at least not yet. Except for the popes of the past, the only people who are qualified to be listed here are those who have made great contributions to the sect. Come closer and see I’m not qualified to see their deeds, and I probably won’t be qualified in the future.”

Mo Tan shrugged and continued to walk forward with Yu Chen. He saw one portrait after another on the road. In addition to the Pope, the Saint, the Saint and the Son, there were many people, such as the Wa who Yu Chen mentioned before. The portrait of the Ding Sheng Master Short-Bi is a dwarf man with a ruddy complexion.

ten minutes later

Mo Tan, who had already looked at the face and saw the numbness, suddenly stopped and stared at the ordinary-looking, slightly bald old man on his left with wide eyes, and took a breath of disbelief.

[The 572nd Pope: Saint Nevafao] looked at him quietly.

"This is the previous Pope."

Seeing him stop, Yuchen introduced him with a smile, and then pointed to the other side: "That's the previous Pope~"

Then Mo Tan saw a face, a rather familiar face.

It was an old man with a goatee, and a mean and mysterious smile hanging on the corner of his mouth.

[The 573rd Pope: Saint Luke Tiffero, alive (?)]

Mo Tan was confused at that time. He could guarantee that he had definitely seen this old man before! I chatted with him and listened to what he said!

Among them, the sentence that impressed me the most is

"The universal version of the teachings costs 1 silver coin. Just give me the cost price, which is 20 copper coins."

at the same time

Marshall Territory, outer suburbs of Dieyan City

"The law is destroyed."

Accompanied by these three casual words, a huge cross nearly a hundred meters high, made purely of light, illuminated the entire sky.

The last lord of the Marshall family, Buffy Marshall, disappeared into the endless light before he even had time to turn around and run away.
