The defeated saint is also on the way to tame the evil god today

　"I see. After all, you are..." Alofts's eyes swept around, "and you have occupied my royal court."

　She spread out her hands, without reservation:

　"Then ask, Star, whatever you want from me."

　So, Xing Mo cleared his throat and said:

　"First of all, there have always been people in the Royal Court maintaining the evil god altar, right?"

　"That's right, but you can rest assured that this wasn't officially authorized..." Alofts smiled. "For millennia, the sorrowful evil Omenimnos has cried out for freedom. He once bewitched countless giants into leaping into the String Fire of the Earth's core, but his task of resurrection was never accomplished..."

　"So, the angel drenched in string fire chose to make a deal with the evil god... yes, that invisible mist."

　"He offered to become the angel beneath the invisible mist, to be an anchor—I think you know what that means."

　"And in the long time that followed, sorrow and evil continued to attract the giants to the middle layer of the floating island. Gradually, an altar was built, and the curse eventually spread to the entire airspace, including me..."

　"So you know you are cursed." Xing Mo muttered.

　"Of course I know, but it's harmless, because the Sin of Sorrow cannot kill us," Alofts smiled. "We are connected to Him in some way, and we are His anchor. He needs our numbers to maintain a certain balance... As the Stone Nest Legion continues to guard the border, our position will become increasingly secure..."

　"That's why you haven't focused your resources on the Stone Nest Legion..." Xingmo whispered, "To maintain a dynamic balance in the number of anchor points..."

　"It's cruel, but this is how we survive," Alofts spread her hands. "Minosk is an exception... Although he was bewitched by the evil god, he never fell, dedicating most of his life to the children of the Stone Nest... Oh... But how can any god with desires not be bewitched?"

　Listening to Alovetes's whisper, Xingmo shook his head.

　She had heard enough of it all and didn't want to judge the values ​​of these high-ranking officials, nor was she too lazy to condemn them.

　"The most important question," Xingmo looked directly at Aloftes, "You know me, right? I mean Xingmo, the bell keeper."

　"That's right," Alovetes said with a smile. "Oh, what you want to ask is which you I know, right?"

　After she finished speaking, she stood up and turned to look at the huge curtain behind the throne.

　"Do you remember that you once told me that you wanted to take a look at this mural?"

　"It just so happens... this mural can solve the confusion in your heart."

　After Aloftes finished speaking, she struck the scepter and the curtain immediately opened to both sides.

　What caught Xingmo's eyes was an ancient stone wall with various hieroglyphs painted on it with golden lines. They were weird and twisted, and just looking at them made one's neck numb.

　And in the very center of the mural is a cloaked figure.

　The figure stood on the cliff with a moon hanging above his head.

　And on the moon, an eye was outlined with simple strokes.

　When Xingmo saw that eye, her pupils were slightly startled.

　Red Moon...

　cliff...

　She saw herself standing on a cliff, with a sea of ​​fire beneath her feet and all living things in ruins.

　And she ignored the hell beneath her feet, reached out her hand, and grasped a brilliant string.

　"You are Xingmo," Aloftes said with a smile, "the one who will eventually grasp the String of the Shepherd Star."

Chapter 307: Judgment Announcement (Part 7) -4k- (Two Updates in One)

　"You are Xingmo, the one who will eventually hold the string of the shepherd star."

　This sentence was like an arrow, shattering the frozen time and space, and also shattering the indifference on Xingmo's face.

　All the broken images flying before my eyes seemed to reappear at this moment: the angel on the cliff opened his arms and embraced the red moon in the sky.

　She suppressed the shudder that shook her heart, pinched her chest, and took a deep breath.

　That person in the mural...is that me?

　I will... turn everything beneath my feet into a sea of ​​blood?

　"No..." Xingmo shook her head slightly.

　She raised her head and looked directly at Alovetes, chaotic golden symbols flashing uncontrollably in her eyes.

　"Xingmo is dead," Xingmo whispered, "died on the Caradorans Ridge at the end of August last year."

　""

　Aloftes did not respond to this, but just smiled mysteriously.

　She raised her head, glanced at the dragon Bahamut, then lowered her head and looked at Xingmo.

　"The Giant King's position is simple—the day of the stars converging is approaching, and the rebellion launched from the earth into the starry sky is about to begin. When the stars and the moon turn, the Shepherd's String will appear."

　"The royal court will follow the being who masters the Shepherd Star String. He is the only being who can break our millennial cycle of suffering and allow the starlight to illuminate the world once again."

　So, is this the promise Merlin made to you?" Xingmo whispered.

　"Yes, he said that the Shepherd's String will belong to the Citadel," Alofts smiled, "and the one who holds that supreme string... is you."

　What is this? A prophetic prediction? Or some kind of destiny?

　The String of the Shepherd Star gathers the great power of the three strings of destiny, truth and life, even its might is in an "invisible" state.

　Whether it is the ancient Court of Salvation or the major countries in the world today, all of them admire its powerful strength.

　Xing Mo had also thought that if there was ever a fight for the string, it wouldn't be a bad thing for the Academy to hold it.

　But the mural recorded that she grasped the string, turned everything under her feet into a sea of ​​fire, and opened her arms to the red moon in the sky.

　"Xingmo is dead," she repeated. "I am Shikoti Amura, the Saint of the Holy Tree Cult."

　"I understand." Alofts smiled slightly.

　Her smile even seemed a little hateful in Xingmo's eyes, just like the smile of a fisherman on the shore at a struggling drowning person, with a hint of gloating.

　At this time, Bahamut on the side spoke:

　"Stop laughing, you ugly giant! If you keep laughing, even the goddess will descend from the sky just to give you two big plastic surgery slaps."

　"You dragon are still so rude." Aloftes spread out her hands.

　"Okay, stop wasting time," Xing Mo said coldly, "If you want to believe in the prophecy, that's your business. Let's get back to the point."

　"As you wish." Alofts nodded.

　Xingmo raised his hand, and a ball of gray-white light and shadow gradually enlarged, gradually outlining the shape of Minosk.

　"Minosk's memories will reveal the Red Moon Cult's layout here," Xingmo said. "After confirming the content of the layout, we need to complete two things according to the agreement."

　"First, grant us the traits necessary to travel deeper into the floating island, and provide support for our campaign against the evil Omenimnos."

　"Of course. The royal court will honor all agreements made," Alofts smiled slightly. "The second agreement has already been fulfilled—you wanted to see the mural, didn't you?"

　"No, you took the initiative to fulfill this promise," Xingmo's lips curled slightly, "I don't admit it."

　"You don't admit it?" Alofts frowned.

　"Yeah, I want to change one." Xing Mo smiled slightly.

　Aren't you gloating over someone else's misfortune? Seeing that there was something wrong with Alovetes' expression, Xingmo felt strangely happy.

　Beside her, Bahamut cleared his throat and said politely:

　"What? If you're not happy, I'll fuck you up and then **** you."

　"Alright, alright," Aloftes spread out her hands helplessly, "Then tell me, Miss Saint, what do you want?"

　"It's simple. The situation in Falu will soon change, and I need the Giant King's Court to send a representative to support Miss Chloe over there during the change." Xingmo pointed to the distance, "Just like you supported the New Party before, you need to support her."

　"I thought it was something..." Alofts gently stroked the side of her face with her hand. "Of course, no problem. Even though I think human disputes are always boring, but... the royal court will assist you as you wish."

　"Hahaha, Aloftes, look at you, you wretch!" Bahamut laughed. "You assisted humanity in launching a coup, and now this is the plight of the great Titan!"

　"You have to help too, Bahamut," Xingmo smiled faintly, "it's a big deal."

　"?" Bahamut was stunned, and then he saw a smile gradually appearing on the corner of Alovetes' mouth.

　Just as she was about to say something, Xing Mo patted her big dragon legs:

　"Look, the Fire Dragon Tribe lost three elders who were eliminated under the rule of the Massena New Party. Even the evil god's followers are within the New Party. Therefore, your appearance can't be considered as aiding humanity, but rather legitimate revenge."

　"So that's how it is..." Bahamut nodded thoughtfully, "Okay! Revenge then!"

　An easy dragon to deal with.

　Xing Mo sighed, then gently waved his wand and said:

　"Then let's look at Minosk's memories together."

　She pierced the ball of light with her wand, closed her eyes, and resonated with the deepest thoughts of her soul.

　"Buzzing..."

　Gradually, she saw Minosk sitting in a spacious bedroom.

　There were countless spirits surrounding him, and those spirits were speaking to him.

　"I'm leaving..." It was Serena's voice, "I'm leaving... Massena... back to the forest..."

　"Where will the power of faith go after you leave?" Minosk whispered.

　"Most of it... will be given to sorrow and evil... He will rise from the core of the earth when the Lord descends, to welcome the Lord's divine coming..." Serena said indifferently, "As for the rest... you must bring them all... to me... I will complete... the final blood sacrifice..."

　"Is not the death of a king enough?" asked Minosk.

　"...wasn't enough. That time was too hasty, and only the king died. But those people still secretly believe in the goddess... They don't trust the king in the first place... Devouring the king's soul can't satisfy my... need for an anchor..."

　"Then what do you mean?"

　".

　..I will use the anchors you collected from the depths of the floating island...to ascend to an angel...and devour all the creatures of Massena..."

　"...Then...I will return to the jungle...and become the Holy Body of the Lord..."

　"...He...will walk the earth...in my name..."

　When he said this, the screen suddenly turned black and then turned into countless cracks.

　Xingmo suddenly opened his eyes and took a deep breath, as if he had broken out of the water after drowning.

　Whether it was Aloftes or Bahamut, their eyes were filled with a hint of disbelief at this moment.

　Serena's ambition... is to become an angel?

　But what about the raw materials? What did she use as the extraordinary raw materials? Where could she obtain the extraordinary raw materials that could elevate a follower of an evil god to an angel?

　Even to ascend to demigod status, 56,000 human souls are required...

　Even if one becomes a demigod, it is impossible to conceal the fact that he wants to obtain 50,000 human souls without anyone noticing.

　Fifty thousand people are missing, this is the death toll at the level of a natural disaster or war!

　Wait...war?

　Xingmo's heart suddenly felt cold and her mouth opened slightly.

　The Franco-Luxembourg War...

　The war lasted for decades, and the core reason why it continued was the incompetence of the Flower King Louis Auguste.

　The reason why Louis Auguste was so foolish was because he was bewitched by Serena and kept offering sacrifices to the evil god!

　Over the years... the casualties have already reached hundreds of thousands... no, millions!

　And on the battlefield, the Imperials used curses to kill the Falu soldiers...isn't this a sacrifice of the black fog to the invisible fog?

　From the sacrifice of Massena's flesh and blood to the sacrifice of the black fog on the battlefield, the human soul fell and was devoured by the evil god.

　Millions of souls were devoured by the evil god, and then... were given his followers in the human world.

　That follower could only be Serena.

　Assuming she had already collected the main materials for the upgrade, all she needed now were the anchor points she had collected from the royal court...

　"Thankfully, Minosk is dead," Xingmo said, "He didn't have the chance to bring those anchors to Serena, so now... the enemy is in the open and we are in the dark."

　"I will block all passages leading up to the surface of the Royal Court," said Aloftes. "When you return from the center of the Earth, we will assist you in defeating the evil god's followers."

　"Oh? Are you getting nervous now?" Bahamut laughed at the side.

　"The Giant King's Court witnessed the devastation caused by the arrival of an angel, and was destroyed for thousands of years because of it," said Alofts with a serious expression. "We will not allow another angel to descend upon this land."
