Chapter Two The Apostles(1/2)
A few basins of ice water poured down, which made Karayan and Krisma slightly regain their anger. The two once arrogant angels of arrival now have cloudy eyes, leaving only endless despair.
Roger searched the two carefully, not letting go of an inch, and finally left two naked angels. Androni also checked the entire valley and dragged a lot of things back.
This time the two found a lot of things, including the Tianjing Roulette that caused trouble for the two angels, the sheepskin scroll that was said to be related to the elves, and a small white jade horn. Androni picked up Krisma's sword "Backwind" and some of the armor of the two.
Needless to say, the things used by the two giants of the Doomsday Trial Team are naturally excellent. Androni has the Blue Sky and no longer looks down on other swords. Roger is different. He easily identified the great value of the archwind and the slashing clouds, and took them away without hesitation.
The armor of the two giants was not very good. One on the east and the other on the west was full of terrible scratches, and even one on the nail page had traces of being pierced, and the broken gap was charred. Androni frowned and looked worried.
"Rog, ask what you want to ask! I always think this is a trap, and it feels very strange! Judging from the traces on their armor, the person who started is probably not as strong as me. If he hides in the dark and attacks, it will be a big trouble. We must quickly finish the matter here and leave here. If he has any bad ideas, it will not be easy to hide his body during high-speed movement."
Roger agreed, but he didn't agree. He woke up the two embarrassing angels of arrival one by one, held the roll of the sheepskin and the white jade horn in front of them, and asked with a smile: "Two sirs, we have met again. I don't have much time and you are very busy. Can you tell me happily what these two things are for?"
Chrisma spat, and Karayang closed her eyes and said nothing.
Roger was a little surprised. Judging from this reaction, Karayang might have a harder bone. The two descending angels were obviously not afraid of death. Maybe they had any secret ways to keep the soul's mark after death. Although all their divine power and soul energy were drained by Feng Yue, even the best doctor could only maintain their life for a few days, but who knows if there is any strange magic or artifact in the church that can regenerate them. Of course, Feng Yue was getting more and more unfathomable. When could she have only drained the soul energy but left a person's life and consciousness?
Androni was a little impatient, two extremely thin and extremely sharp blue chips formed between her fingers.
"It seems that you have to torture, right? It's so old-fashioned! These dirty men are best castrated!"
Karayan and Krisma looked at Androni contemptuously. Karayan even said, "You talk so much nonsense, no wonder they look like a woman. Let me be honest, I once had a little boy because he looks a little similar to you! Haha, haha!"
Roger quickly stopped Androni in anger. The young lady's extreme disgust and madness towards men should not be triggered at this time. Killing or castration might as well wait until she asks for what she needs. Moreover, with Roger's understanding of the Church of Light, they should not be afraid of torture and death.
"Two lords," said Rogge with a sinister smile, "I know you are not afraid of death, and it can even be said that death can fully prove your devotion to the Supreme God. After your death, your soul is not only redeemed, and you will be rewarded by the Supreme God. Let me guess whether the power of God will go further?"
Both angels remained silent.
"It seems that I'm right. Salvation is your purpose. We might as well make a deal. I will let you get redemption. And you, please help me and tell me about your search for the elves this time?"
When Karayang and Krisma heard the elves, their faces changed.
"Don't bother. We don't need any redemption. If you want to kill, you can do it quickly. You can be willing to torture it. It depends on whether we can stand it." Krisma said coldly.
"It's not good if you say it too clearly. After all, I was a guardian knight. Although my morality and faith are far from that of you, I still read some of the scriptures. The two have been drained from divine power, right? It seems that there will be more than one day for you to commit suicide? Even if you return to the church, your holy power will not be restored. It's because suicide is a serious crime! The soul of the suicide will be degraded forever and will not enter the heaven. Look, how well my scriptures have been memorized! Although the scriptures are just vivid metaphors, we all know that what is said above is true, right?"
The two angels looked a little unnatural.
"Let's think about it from a different perspective, how can we make the two souls fall into hell forever and not be able to reincarnate. Chapter 12 of "The Book of Sacred. Redemption" lists five sins, Chapter 17 has four uncleanness, and Chapter 22 has heresy and blasphemy. Do you still want me to continue talking, or do you need me to list them one by one for the two adults?"
"The crimes you said cannot be added to us! What we do to the pagans are manifestations of faith in the Supreme God!" Krisma said in a deep voice.
"I admit that no matter how many pagans kill, it is a merit. Even if it is a force, a genocide, or a slaughter of the village, it doesn't matter. But... I'm not talking about this." Roger stood up and walked to Androni.
"Miss, I'm going to talk to them about some 'private' content. You will feel uncomfortable after listening to it. Can you..."
Androni opened her eyes wide and looked at Roger in surprise.
"You won't be interested in them, are you? Although this kind of torture is not without, but... there is no one here! You... can't get on them by yourself, are you... sure?"
Roger was so amused that the young lady had a lot of quirks, so she immediately thought of that aspect.
"Miss! Where do you want to go? I just scared them. I have no interest in men at all. Only a great beauty like you can make me lose my composure..." He stared at Androni in a lustful look.
A layer of frost immediately fell on Androni's face, and she turned around and left.
Watching her walk away, Roger squatted in front of the two angels again, carefully looking at their toned bodies, making them creepy.
"Two sirs, don't be afraid. However, I think you may be a little familiar with this."
A pale flame ignited in Roger's palm. Karayan and Krisma's faces immediately changed. They tried their best to move their bodies, trying to stay away from Roger.
"You have sold your soul to that demon! You blasphemer! You will be burned by the Lord of Heaven with the most angry fire of judgment! You will be subjected to eternal pain in the pure fire of heaven forever!" Krisma cursed viciously.
"Come on, two greats! Heaven will not pay attention to me as a little person for the time being. As for suffering in the purified fire, I don't know which year or month it's going to happen. Let's not waste time, just say, I have a contract with the demon who has extracted your divine power. Now I have two choices, one is to kill you, complete your salvation, and let your souls return to the Lord's arms, and the other is to use this undead fire to directly turn your souls into ashes, and from then on, you will completely disappear from this world. Of course, I have another way to let the demon take away your souls. You should know that there are countless spaces in this world. It's not easy to find a different space and imprison your souls for tens of thousands of years? At that time, you can't even commit suicide."
The two angels were sweating coldly.
"Okay, after saying so much, you must have understood that I have absolutely no choice but to deal with your souls. Now, as long as you cooperate, I swear in the name of the Supreme God. After getting the answer I want, I will kill you and give you the opportunity to be redeemed. If you don't believe, I can swear in the name of the great demon god in the demon world."
After thinking for a long time, the two angels finally succumbed to Roger's tyranny. After all, the feeling of being imprisoned in another world for thousands of years was absolutely not good.
Ancient parchment records a map of the central mountain range with a mark on it. It is said that this is the location of a super-large magic circle. After the horn of the elves within a radius of thousands of miles will receive the message, knowing that Shilo's messenger has arrived here. Then, the elves who received the message will take the messenger back to the base.
It is said that there are dozens of this kind of magic circle on the entire continent, which is the last miracle of Hilo staying in this world. The keys that can open the magic circle are the elf horns, and an elf horn only correspond to one magic circle. The elf horns in the hands of Karayang and Krisma are derived from the Pope. It is said that in a prayer in the Great Temple of Light of the Church, the Pope suddenly obtained Hilo's oracle, which was generated in the flames of the altar at that time. According to Hilo's oracle, the church unearthed this ancient sheepskin map in an elves ruin.
Although the great elf Hilo is not a subordinate of the supreme God believed in by the Church of Light, it can always belong to the gods of light. The church has always respected the gods of light that can show miracles. It is said that the pope had received another oracle from the Lord of the Heavenly God and instructed the church to help the elves complete the feat of this thousand-year return.
"A thousand years return?" Roger became interested.
"Yes, according to the oracle, Hilo opened up a pure land on the continent with great divine power as a shelter for all elves. Hilo stored the shelter in the souls of the divine messengers, and these divine messengers went to find the elves who were wandering around the continent, and led them on the way back to the holy land and ended the elves' exile for thousands of years. For thousands of years, the price the elves paid for the last war was too great."
"There is only one holy land. If the elves from all over the continent want to return to the holy land, wouldn't they have to travel long distances and cross the territories of other tribes? It sounds like there are not many people in the elves, so why should they hide and continue to recuperate? "
"I don't know this. As for security, the Pope will ask them to give convenience and protection to the elves in any human kingdom that believes in the Supreme God. As for those pagan countries, we can do nothing. Within the sphere of influence of the church, we will also send the Holy Knights to protect the migrating elves. The church has done its best."
"So, two sirs, now tell me where is the Holy Land?"
"We are not God's messengers!"
Roger laughed, and the flames of death in his hand became fierce.
"The map is in your hands, and the horns of the elf are in your hands. Now tell me that you are not God's messengers? Well?"
Krisma hurriedly said, "We are really not messengers. Our mission is to find this big magic circle, but we wait for the real messenger to arrive at the magic circle and protect him from reaching the elves safely."
"Impossible! When did the church become so self-deprecating?"
The two angels swore quickly. After hearing their poisonous oaths in the name of the Supreme God, Roger was skeptical. He looked through the parchment carefully, pointed to the text on the back and asked, "What are these things that seem to be uninterrupted?"
"That..." Krisma carefully identified for a long time before saying, "It seems to be a praise and description of the messenger of God. This is written in the elf."
Roger nodded. Although he was not proficient in Elf Language, he also knew a lot. As a magician, identification and language were originally a compulsory course. With these descriptions, it would be much easier for his next action. Now, a huge plan has slowly formed in his mind.
He smiled sinisterly, but he didn't expect that this time would be so smooth. No matter what, with this sheepskin, he was confident that he would be more like a god envoy than a real god envoy.
Roger nodded. His face suddenly darkened and he asked sternly: "How could the church know that Elyses is a princess of the demon clan? Say it quickly!"
Karayang and Krisma were startled and quickly explained.
In fact, what these two giants know is very limited. They were summoned by Augustus that day, and waited for half a day before they were told to go to the Grand Duke's Mansion to hunt down the demon princess Elyses. Augustus said that she would drink the tears of angels and ordered them to rush in and catch people after seeing the holy flames formed by the angels ignited. But they did not expect that Elyses, who was burned by the holy flame, could escape.
"Can you catch people at the Grand Duke's Mansion at will? Do you know the relationship between Elysis and Grand Duke?"
"At that time, an officer led us into the Grand Duke Mansion and waited in a side room until we sensed the angel's tears. What happened later... you know everything."
Roger's fingertips became cold and his palms were covered in sweat. He vaguely felt a huge conspiracy behind all this. However, he really didn't want to think about that aspect, which even exceeded his ability to bear, who had always loved conspiracy. Thinking of the information he heard from Androni, a contour slowly formed in his chest, but it was still vague, something was missing, so he could not grasp all of this.
"Have you seen Artest? It betrayed the demon world and sold Elysis to you. It should have great benefits in the church, right?"
"Only Lord Augustus will know these secrets. After you escaped, we were just taken to His Majesty's prayer room and entered the teleportation magic circle set up there. Lord Augustus was already waiting for the other end of the teleportation magic circle. Later, you came here by yourself."
Roger stood up, stood quietly with his hands behind his back, and after a while, he said, "I have finished asking. This is as your wish, I will send you to another world to stay well for tens of thousands of years."
Karayang and Krisma's faces twisted and hissed, "You devil! You have sworn in the name of the demon and the supreme god! You will be retribution!"
Roger was silent for a moment before saying, "From the moment Elyss was burned to death, I no longer trust the gods and demons!"
The space fluctuated, and Feng Yue walked out. Her two slender hands became phantoms, inserted the heads of two angels, grabbed two balls of light that were constantly jumping and struggling, and returned to another world.
Karayang and Krisma's expressions became dull, and their eyes were staring at the sky with nonchalantness. After a while, their heart stopped beating.
Roger sighed softly and stood still. At some point Androni had already walked back. She looked at the two corpses on the ground and frowned.
"Why are they dead? You asked what you needed? What's wrong with you, have you remembered Elyses again?"
Roger cheered up and told Androni the information he had to questioned about the elves.
Androni is very skilled in martial arts, but she doesn't have much opinion on handling these major issues.
"What should we do next?"
"What should I do? Of course, I will find that magic circle and find a way to kill the divine envoy. We will be the divine envoy ourselves!"
Androni's eyes were full of surprise. "Is there any benefit to doing this?"
"The benefits? Of course, there are. Your father and brother have heavy troops in hand, and we only have two people. How can we save your little lover princess? Do you think that it is enough to rely on your strong sword skills? If you want to save your little lover princess from a thousand troops, we must have our own people. There must be someone, money, and guns! Do you understand?"
Not only did Androni not understand, she was a little confused. Thousands of troops sneaked in, why did she have to lead her troops in? What does it have to do with her own troops and the envoys who pretended to be the elf? However, when she said these things, she attracted Roger's ruthless ridicule. Seeing that Androni's face slowly turned pale, he put away his sarcasm and explained.
"Every adult elves are either excellent archers, but they have a very magical talent. Moreover, the elves' skills in creating equipment are not inferior to those of dwarves. Their natural artistic feeling will make the equipment they create very beautiful, which will greatly increase the value of these equipment. You see, isn't this just someone has a gun?"
"What about the money?"
"Miss, you should be very clear about how much an elf slave is, right?"
Androni was silent for a moment, her face turned pale. Although she was cruel and ruthless, there were many murderers. But it was the first time that she talked about bloody and dirty slave transactions so nakedly. Roger just pretended not to see it and continued to brainwash her.
"What do you rely on to have an invincible army? The genius of generals, the bravery of soldiers, strict military discipline and absolute execution of orders. Look at how long does it take for famous generals and emperors from all ages to establish lofty prestige in the army or the people, and how much does it cost? They care about the food, clothing, housing and transportation of their soldiers, and solve the problems they encounter. They often have to live and travel with the soldiers and people, and eat the same food. As for us, as long as the elves believe that we are God's envoys, our words and deeds represent the will of Hilo, and every order of our order will be executed without any cost. We have an invincible army and loyal followers, and what have we paid for it? No, nothing! This is the power of faith! Faith has always been a huge and terrible force!"
Androni felt dizzy in her head. She slowly understood why Rogue was so terrible. This man did not take any rules seriously. He acted in an irregular manner and was not bound by anything at all. But his views on many things were pointed and faced with the true nature. Although he was obviously not as talented and knowledgeable as ordinary, he always had to act mediocre, incompetent, greedy and lustful, and didn't know how many people he had deceived.
It is really a terrible thing to be an enemy of such a person.
What she didn't know was that although Rogue was not mediocre and incompetent, he was greedy for money and lust.
Following the guidance of the map, the two walked towards the depths of the central mountain range.
Along the way, Roger followed the instructions on the parchment and kept asking Androni to do this and that. Androni was proficient in elf language. Although she was extremely dissatisfied with Roger's attitude, after she carefully read the parchment, she had to admit that Roger's words were reasonable.
The next day, the two rode on two tall wild horses, one chestnut and the other brown. Under the powerful Androni, these two extremely strong horses were tamed to obey.
At night, the two horses turned pure white. Roger used the structure technique so well. Although his magic power was not strong, his superb magic control also opened Androni's eyes. Turning the fur on the horse's body into white hair was not an easy task. The two horses asked him to perform the structure technique nearly ten times, and then they turned completely white.
