Elder Tafei looked at the empty Hall of Light, feeling a little lost. When the focus of his eyes finally fell on the golden figure directly above the hall, his originally absent-minded gaze suddenly became much more exciting, but soon became complicated and difficult to understand.
He has followed the Great Elder for decades, and obedience to the Great Elder has long been his creed in life. No matter how difficult or dangerous the situation was, he always stood beside the great elder and guarded his flanks.
And the great elder also used incredible victories to prove his trust in him, and he has never failed.
But this time
These hesitations and distracting thoughts flashed through his mind, and his eyesight quickly returned to clarity. After all, he had gone through countless storms and knew that the plan had already begun. At this time, they had no way out.
Only by success can everyone¡¯s sacrifices be meaningful and their decades of hard work not in vain.
Tafi has never been a womanly person, and he has countless blood on his hands. But this huge gamble still made him feel heartbroken.
Since he has been in power for many years, he personally selected half of the elders in the temple. These elders are powerful and have outstanding abilities, which can be seen from their progress in cultivating the Holy Flame. Many elders are actually more like his students, but all of them will pay everything for this gamble.
He created all this with his own hands. Since he began to teach them the Holy Flame decades ago, the plan has been quietly unfolding. He originally thought that after so many years of psychological construction, he could face it calmly, but when he saw the golden pillars of flame rising into the sky with his own eyes, he was still heartbroken.
This is a real big gamble. If they win, the Temple will no longer have any constraints. From now on, the entire Guangming Continent will have only one master, and the Temple's will will be implemented in every corner of Guangming Continent. This is the deepest wish of every great elder, but no one has ever achieved it before, and has never given up.
If you lose, you will lose all the elders, and the temple will exist in name only. Moreover, such crazy and bloody methods will make the temple an existence despised by the entire Guangming Continent, and no one will forgive them.
So, they must win. Only by winning can their history be written arbitrarily.
Taffy¡¯s eyes became as firm as iron again.
The light will last forever!
For the long-term plan of the temple, all sacrifices are worth it.
The golden holy flames flowed on the floor of the Guangming Palace. The figure of the Great Elder in the firelight did not look old at all, he was still as majestic as when he was young. The Great Elder stared at the light reliefs on the walls of the Temple of Light, on which countless heroes came to life. It was the epic of the Temple of Light. Engraved on it are every important battle that the Temple of Light has experienced, and every elder who has contributed to the temple.
It is precisely because of the succession of these senior elders that the Temple of Light is what it is today.
Every generation of the top leaders of the temple are so enterprising and regard the expansion of the temple as their own life, and the great elder is no exception.
I don¡¯t know if I will have a place here in the future, and I don¡¯t know if I will lead the temple to light or darkness. No, you are right! Those damn wealthy families, relying on their merits in the past, have restricted the temple at every turn. They must die!
He needs a powerful Guangming Continent. Only with one voice can Guangming Continent be truly powerful, defeat the Southern Alliance, unify the world, and conquer Tianlu.
There are too many sounds in Guangmingzhou now!
"How is it?" he asked suddenly, the golden holy flames all over his body hesitating silently.
Tafei bowed slightly, just like he did decades ago: "The plan went very smoothly. There are already three hundred and forty-two trial pillars that have been opened."
"Three hundred and forty-two." The Great Elder murmured, as if he was sighing, "It's not easy to train three hundred and forty-two elders. This is all your credit. I haven't done anything in these years." Thank you for your hard work, steward."
Tafei felt warm in her heart and said with a smile: "You are so polite, I'm really not used to it."
There was a chuckle in the flames, and the Great Elder immediately sighed: "I know you are reluctant to let go, and neither am I. You know me. Although I am not a charitable person, I am not a violent and murderous person."
Taffy bent down and said respectfully and firmly: "Of course you are not."
"They died because of me, and I should bear the infamy." A sigh sounded in the flames: "But this is our responsibility, the responsibility of our generation. Blood and reputation can be sacrificed, and there is only sacrifice. If we don't solve these problems Rich family, we will miss a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, an opportunity to unify the world. We must sacrifice. Only in this way can we leave a clean Guangming Continent to our successors."
"Your hard work will be remembered by future generations.remember. "Taffy said sincerely.
"I don't care." The voice in the flames was old and firm, showing arrogance and scornful domineering. The flames were flying wantonly, and Taffy seemed to see the young figure who convinced him back then.
The figure in the flames waved his hand violently, and countless sparks burst out: "Do what we should do. Since the palms of our hands are already stained with the blood of our own people, then the blood of the enemy is the best wine. How can we return without being drunk?"
"Your will is light." Taffy bent even lower.
The figure in the flames raised his arms, and his palms wrapped in flames pressed against the bright sun directly above the relief.
??The white holy flames gush out from the sun, and soon the holy flames spread around and turned into a white flame door. The great elder took a step forward and stepped into the flame gate. The great elder of the flame gate disappeared at the same time.
Taffy stood up, feeling full of strength all over his body. Your life is about to come to an end. If you can exert your last light and heat before you die, what regrets do you have?
Longing flashed in his eyes, yes, it would be such a wonderful thing to be able to leave a clean Guangming Continent to future generations.
The Flame Gate disappeared behind the Great Elder, and in front of him was the Knights of Light.
Sophie stood at the front of the team, silent.
The great elder was obviously irritated by the situation in front of him, and his voice was full of anger: "Why didn't the plan be implemented?"
Sophie stood up: "I stopped them."
The great elder in the flames stared at Sophie, his angry roar disappeared, and his voice became deeper: "Why?"
Sophie raised her head, her eyes calm and clear: "They are my soldiers, I can't let them die in vain."
Silence, oppressive silence.
"Charles is dead, and I don't want them to die too." Sophie whispered.
All the anger disappeared instantly, and the figure in the flames was a little stunned. After a moment, he said in a deep voice: "Yes, Charles is dead, but we must avenge him."
"To avenge him, he won't survive, but everyone will die." Sophie shook her head: "They can die on the battlefield, but I don't want them to die like this."
"They won't die." The great elder said.
"Yes, give up your life and become a soul general." Sophie looked directly at the figure in the flames: "There is no temperature, and the erosion of time makes the memory dissipate little by little, forgetting your relatives, forgetting your lover, and becoming A machine that only knows how to kill. What¡¯s the difference between that and death?¡±
"Yes, there is no difference, maybe it is better to die." The figure in the flames was not angry, his tone suddenly became stern: "But in addition to being your soldiers, they are also knights of light, who have sacrificed everything for the temple. Their meaning, both in life and in death.¡±
Sophie was silent.
"Are they the only ones going to death? Of the 564 elders in the temple, 342 have already died. They don't even have a chance to become soul generals. They were wiped out and nothing was left. They are in Their souls are dedicated to the temple, and they endure the pain of burning souls before they die. The remaining elders will burn into holy flames before sunset tomorrow."
An indifferent voice came out from the flames, and all the Knights of Light involuntarily raised their heads with shock on their faces.
"This is a big gamble, a big gamble that cannot be lost. Everyone in the temple must be turned into a bargaining chip and placed on the gambling table." The cold and ruthless words were like sharp daggers piercing into everyone's hearts. The great elder's The voice was full of ridicule: "Everything you have is given to you by the temple. Each of you has sworn to give everything for the temple, including everything you have. But now? The temple needs you to die, you But he backed down.¡±
"No, I just don't want them to die meaninglessly." Sophie did not avoid the Great Elder's gaze: "They are soldiers! They should die on the battlefield! Not in this dark corner, dying in vain just to become souls. ."
"No one has the right to choose, Sophie." The Great Elder said solemnly: "This is a war. You can never decide where your battlefield is, just like you can't decide how you die. What I can do, Just let your death not be meaningless. And try my best. I can't guarantee anything, but we have no choice."
"Captain!" A knight of light stood up: "The great elder is right, we cannot decide how to die, but I have never forgotten my oath."
Another knight of light stood up: "I will defend the light to the death!"
¡°We should have died for the temple, and it¡¯s so discouraging to let the elders take the lead.¡±
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ??The Bright Knights all stood up. They lined up neatly and stood in front of Sophie as usual.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Everyone saluted Sophie.
"Captain, from now on we will also be soul generals, and we will never look down on you again."
"Captain, wait for us to come out."
¡°Captain, don¡¯t die in front of us!¡±
"Commander, we will definitely fight side by side!"
¡¡
The Knights of Light turned around and stepped into the white circle of light behind them. As soon as they stepped into the aperture, the aperture seemed to come alive, giving birth to a white light curtain that slowly rose. The white light curtain rose above their heads and gathered into a cocoon of light, wrapping them in it.
The light cocoons are arranged neatly one by one, there is no sound at all, and human figures are faintly visible inside.
The golden holy flame spreads upward from the bottom, quickly wrapping the cocoon of light. The holy flames continuously penetrated into the light cocoon, and the faint figure inside the light cocoon continued to struggle painfully.
