The sky is thousands of miles long, and the clouds are gloomy. On the high platform in the middle of the "Fortress of Sorrow", an old man in black stands in the sky. Occasionally, he stretches out his hand to grasp, and absorbs a group of resentful spirits from the city, holding it in the palm of his hand. Then, he drew out a breath of dead soul from the lantern in his left hand and injected it into the resentful spirit air ball. The gray-white spirit body gradually expanded like fermented dough, and mysterious lines appeared on the surface. When the "Death Knell" loosened its grip, it swayed up into the sky and disappeared into the clouds. The Evil God does not need to rest, nor does he feel tired. "Death Knell" just like this, Mance grabbed, injected, and flew in a methodical manner. Each ball of resentful spirit air rose into the sky one after another and merged with the thick clouds. This process lasted for several days and nights, and "Death Knell" still had no intention of stopping. On the second platform, Jersey Val leaned against the railing, his face covered with a layer of rotating fog to hide his true appearance. On the other side, Ventrov took the initiative to chat with Baiji. He had spent some time in the Hersius Valley and knew the other person's past identity. But the barbarian girl lost her memory of the past. She looked at Ventrov warily and subconsciously leaned towards Jersey Val. "I am the lord of this city. If you have anything, sir, feel free to ask me." The white-haired Knight of Dreams protected his spear apprentice behind him and took the words. "Nothing, nothing." Ventrov shook his head quickly. He could feel the majestic power between reality and reality in the other party. But Ventrov didn¡¯t dare to stay too far away. Brown robe, greasy "mud" hair. He is patrolling not far away. Although there is a "death knell" order, if this guy comes to kill him first, he will show off later. "Deathstroke" won't say much. This is the sadness of little people. The changes in the clouds were not hidden from the Pale Lord. He looked from a distance and could clearly feel that the clouds over the "Fortress of Sorrow" had been infiltrated by the breath of dead souls and were spreading to the surrounding areas. Due to the obstruction of the Cast Iron Mountains. The spread speed on the west side is slightly faster than that in other directions, before December 14th. We should be able to reach the Hellseus Valley. Under the white tower, there was a crisp singing voice. It was children who were pure in body and mind, singing sacred hymns. And in the north of Rankin City. A large-scale magical array is about to be set up. If a square that can accommodate ten thousand people is used as a standard, then the area of ??this magical array is a hundred times larger. In order to ensure the smooth operation of the divine magic array, Inedil divided the remaining New Army of Light into one hundred squads, with each team responsible for 10,000 believers and 1,000 priests. They practice day and night, which even affects their daily work and life. But when the people complained, they saw the Department of Light Judgment. After not being inferior to the methods of the Inquisition, he wisely chose to obey and did not dare to slack off. Today. Inedil also managed to support his illness and went out of the city to supervise, so the Pale Lord was the only one left on the White Tower. He smiled strangely, secretly mobilized the power of the White Tower, and projected an obscure wave. Fly directly to the southeast, towards the Aygones Mountains. A small town at the foot of the mountain. Isonzo. In the center of this small city with a population of less than 100,000, a new and extremely luxurious mansion was built, and half of the national treasury was even emptied for it. But no one dared to object to this, because this was Analista's decision. With the support of "Shadow Lord" Silvis, the former Grand Judge became the queen of the foothills. As for Silvis himself, he gave up his secular power. Even though Lovito and other trusted generals repeatedly tried to dissuade him, he still stubbornly gave up the title of king of the country to Analista. "Is Silvis back?" The queen in black attire strode into the meeting hall and asked with a frown. She wears her hair in a high bun and has a majestic and beautiful face. Her methods of governing the country follow the style of when she was in charge of the Inquisition. Her laws are strict and cannot be questioned by anyone. "Your Highness, your Excellency has not returned." Lovito, the interim commander, bowed and replied. Since abdicating the throne, Silvis has moved to the mountains to live in seclusion, and will only appear occasionally on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month. "The city of Severa has fallen, and the Holy See of Light has no time to take care of itself. We should take the opportunity to send troops and occupy the plain area under the mountain, which is the second largest grain-producing area in Ian," Analista took a few steps back and forth and urged, " Send someone to the mountains quickly to find Silvis. "My lord said that I don't want to be disturbed," Lovito replied indifferently. "This is my order!" Analista stopped in front of him and said every word. "My subordinates know." Lovito's tone was neither salty nor cold, and he obviously didn't take it to heart. "Immediately, immediately!" Analista stared at Lovito until he took the order and then turned around and asked, "How many are in the warehouse?"Can food and grass meet the needs of sending troops? " "Your Highness, I'm afraid it's not possible," the dim-eyed Finance Minister replied disappointedly, "The food production of the countries in the foothills has always been insufficient. In previous years, they still needed assistance from the Holy See. This year, they can barely make enough, which is already very good. " "This doesn't matter," Analista was stunned, but quickly cheered up, "When we occupy the plains under the mountains, we will have sufficient food supply. " The officials in the hall looked at each other, wanting to remind the optimistic Queen that hungry soldiers do not have much fighting power. But thinking of the consequences that would follow, they still swallowed these words back in their stomachs. "In order to boost morale, I'm going to hold a grand banquet for all the nobles in the city," Analista thought for a while and then ordered, "You go and prepare now. " The finance minister was stunned for a while, with a look of embarrassment on his face. In order to win over people's hearts, Analista conferred the title of nobility on all the middle-level and above generals who judged the Crusaders. If they all attended the banquet, it would be a huge expense. "Go quickly! "Analista scolded dissatisfied. The ministers did not dare to disobey, so they stood up and left helplessly. Two days ago, an unlucky guy was driven out of the royal court by a stick just because of a word of advice. Until the hall. There was no one inside. Analista just sighed, and her high momentum suddenly dropped. She stood there with blank eyes. After a long time, she murmured, "Even if I do this, you are still here." Don't want to come back? " In the deep valleys in the mountains, giant trees tower into the sky. Silvis sat cross-legged on a moss-covered rock, lowering his head and staring at the reflection in the pool. Black hair and gray eyes. Pale face. He was once a handsome young hunter. Now his face It¡¯s all dark. Staying in the darkness for a long time has drained away all the light in him. ¡°Do you think you can¡¯t do any harm to them if you stay away from the crowd? "A twisted grimace suddenly appeared in the pool. The Lord of Shadows appeared, his tone full of sarcasm. "How will you know if you don't try? Silvis asked calmly. After experiencing the crazy "tide of shadows", Silvis finally adapted to the existence of the evil god in his body. Then, he relied on his strong will to gradually escape from the control of the Lord of Shadows. , not long ago, he regained control of his body in one fell swoop and remained conscious for a long time. ¡°Your efforts are in vain. Shadows are everywhere, especially in the human heart. "The Lord of Shadows hummed, but deep down in his heart, he was still a little panicked. After being possessed by the evil god, ordinary humans would only sink completely, but this guy actually started to resist himself, which made the Lord of Shadows inexplicably give birth to There was a hint of bad premonition. Silvis smiled and did not answer. Now, he has understood the source of the plague and is spreading dark energy around him all the time. Companion, Silvis chose to stay away from them and hid in the mountains. He even thought that if one day he died alone, maybe the evil god in his body would not be able to cause trouble to the world. "What a noble man. Well," after receiving his thoughts, the grimace floating on the water mocked, "But how long can you endure it? One year, two years, or ten years? With me in your body, your lifespan is almost infinite. Can you really survive this eternal loneliness? " "Do your best," Silvis replied. There were birds passing by in the forest. He frowned slightly, held the "Devil Hunting" double blades at his waist, and then asked loudly, "Who? " "My old friend, you seem to have encountered a little setback? "A distant voice sounded, and a pale shadow appeared out of thin air at the other end of the clear pool. He chuckled and said, "Could it be that the host is not very obedient? " "Shut up! The Lord of Shadows said angrily, "How did you find me?" " "A little trick," the Pale Lord smiled, "Why, aren't you welcome? " "You came to me for no reason. You don't want to ask for something, do you? "The Lord of Shadow's emotions quickly calmed down. He was suspended in mid-air and asked keenly. "Let's join forces. "The Pale Lord smiled and proactively suggested. "Oh? The Lord of Shadows thought sharply for a moment, obviously not believing it, "What the hell are you doing?" " "I have reached an agreement with 'Death Knell'. I will help him harvest the souls of Snowdon's army. He will help me resolve the crisis in Ian and control the Holy White Tower" The Pale Lord did not hide much, "How? , interested in getting involved? " "You are so distressed by a human being that you still have the nerve to say such things? "The Lord of Shadows said disdainfully, "Seeing Snowton's army,When the army comes to Ranken City, how can you help Deathstroke and harvest his soul? " "Of course there is a way," the Pale Lord paced in the air, his voice softening, "But you also know that 'Mud' and 'Bug' have always followed the orders of 'Death Knell', and now even 'Bat', It seems that he has also turned to his side, and the 'evil spirit' has disappeared without a trace. I can't stand alone, so I came to you" "After this is done, what good will I get? "The Lord of Shadows asked bluntly. There is no trust between the evil gods, but it is not bad to use each other. "To the east of the Ayguns Mountains, the entire Settian belongs to you," The Pale Lord promised, "You and I will form an alliance that will remain unchanged for a thousand years. " "What about the Buada Empire south of Ayguns? What about the Tolm Federation west of Ian? The Lord of Shadows asked, "Are these places yours or mine?" " "If you are willing to join forces with me to deal with the 'Bat', then how about half of the Buyada Empire? "The Pale Lord discussed, "As for the Torm Federation, let's not get involved for the time being Although Greedy is not the strongest, when her private property is threatened, she dares to go head-to-head with Scarlet. " "That's right," the Lord of Shadows rarely agreed with this old enemy for the first time. "One of them knows how to kill, and the other likes money. They are not easy to mess with. " "In that case, how about we sign a contract? "The Lord of Pale stretched out a finger, and white light rippled between his fingers, accumulating but not emitting. "Okay" The Lord of Shadows spun in the air and suddenly got back into Silvis's head. Silvis was sullen. With a snort, he collapsed limply to the ground, with a struggling expression in his eyes, but his body quickly lost control. After a moment, Silvis stood up again, stretched out his fingers and touched the pale master, gray and white. The air flow spurted out and bound their palms tightly. The two held hands and made an oath. The air flow expanded and contracted several times, condensed into a contract mark, and then broke into two pieces, and was thrown into the bodies of the two evil gods. The White Tower is waiting for you. "The Pale Lord smiled and nodded, and the shadow swayed and disappeared with a bang. As the night grew dark and birds chirped, Silvis slowly sat down, then his whole body was shaken and he regained consciousness. "You think, Is there really nothing I can do against you? "The Lord of Shadows appeared again. Just now, he used strong methods to regain control of the body. However, this method actually caused great damage to the host's soul and cannot be used at will. " Silvis took a few heavy breaths, as if He was recovering from a serious illness. He looked at the arrogant Lord of Shadows, feeling a sense of despair in his heart. Could it be that he really couldn't escape from his grasp? Why did he release this devil at that time? "Have you forgotten that it was you who begged Analista to find the source of power? When we regained the Inquisition, you were so grateful to me" Because the two have the same mind, the shadows The Lord intercepted his thoughts and reminded him with a smile, "What's more, I am not a devil, but an evil god, an evil god. " "I won't give in. "Silves clenched his fists, and poked his sharp fingers into his palms, faint blood seeping out. "I will not give innever" He repeated one sentence after another, as if he was afraid that he would Forget your original identity, forget your dreams and persistence. ¡°I appreciate your courage. "The Lord of Shadows chuckled strangely, and his ferocious grimace swooped down into Silvis's eyebrows. (To be continued) ps: (More!)
