Your Majesty, drink the medicine quickly

Chapter 145 The giant’s light and shadow! Something is wrong with this city! (-in-)

In this episode, Saron has brought Elizabeth back to Li Pu, and everyone in the hall has also returned to their places.

Seeing that order had been restored slightly, the Grand Duke looked at Absalom: "So, Sir Saron, those wanted notices you brought."

When the Grand Duke mentioned this matter, Absalom groaned secretly in his heart. Those wanted notices were issued by the King of Anger!

In order not to expose his loyalty to the Holy Lord, Absalom could only do so.

"Your Majesty the Duke, those wanted notices are the agreement we made with Mr. Nip before we left. There are code words on them." Absalom took out a wanted notice in his arms, pointed to the text on it and said: "Please read it. , if you replace the third letter of the first word with the . of the second word.”

After everyone looked at it according to Absalom's words, they found that the reassembled word was this paragraph: Your Majesty Nip, your loyal servants have arrived at Violet.

Li Pu looked at Absalom blankly, he didn't know the code word at all. Therefore, this passage must have been made up by Absalom out of desperation.

By the way, He also flattered his boss.

Regarding Absalom's explanation, the Archduke seemed to see through the problem. But he didn't expose it in public. Instead, he looked at Li Pu and mentioned the Holy Communion: "Sir Nip, you have seen the farce we staged today. The sergeants have had enough of those damn sheep dung eggs."

After a pause, he said: "To tell you the truth, Violet's logistics have already encountered problems. The war is imminent and the situation is very serious. We are unable to solve this problem and can only ask other forces for help - even if it is hell, even if it is hell, It’s the Cult of the Evil God. But we hope that it’s the gods in heaven who will help us.”

From the meaningful look in the Duke's eyes, Li Pu suspected that he was implying this to himself - I don't care who you are, and I don't care who Saron is. As long as you help me solve the problem of eating for the violet people, you will be people in the kingdom of heaven.

"Your Majesty the Duke." This time, Li Pu called him very formally. He bowed his head and said to his father-in-law: "No one hopes that Violet will be invincible more than me. I am here to solve all problems for you."

Then Li Pu expressed his attitude. He looked at Absalom: "Salon, how many holy sacraments do we have in our hands now?"

Absalom replied: "My lord, I dare not deceive you. In fact, it is not the Holy Communion, but the bitter fern we looted from the Hell Alliance. If these supplies are used by the Knights, there will still be some spare, but If it is divided equally among the lords, it will not take more than a few days.”

This passage contains a lot of information, and it stirs up a thousand waves with one stone.

One is that the Holy Communion in the hands of the Knights does not come from the gods, but from hell. This has shaken people's faith in heaven.

One is that the gods in heaven cannot even get the Holy Communion for the reinforcements, so the Knights have to find a way to grab it themselves. This made these lords who had no confidence in the subsequent battle of gods even less confident.

But what shocked people the most was that these three thousand people actually rushed into the hell territory and snatched away the bitter fern. And they grabbed a lot of them.

You know, the total number of troops of the lords reached more than 200,000. The amount of bitter fern that can feed more than 200,000 people for several days is already astonishing.

The number of the hell troops that was robbed was probably ten times greater than that of the Knights.

The strength of the Knights gave people some renewed confidence in the Kingdom of Heaven.

But they all thought too much. Because this knight order is not sent by the Kingdom of Heaven at all. They are the vanguard sent by hell!

Regarding Violet, there is no hope in heaven.

Perhaps the armies of the gods will come, but they will not come to save believers. But to come here to fight for the sacred remains of the saint.

Many lords were talking about it. They quietly observed Li Pu's expression, thinking that he was deep in thought.

In fact, Li Pu has been communicating with Absalom in his heart.

["Your Majesty, you know that the King of Wrath does not want to attack the city, but he has no say in this matter. The six kings of hell are staring at him now. And the legions coming this time are also from the pain hell. Lord, the coalition of wrathful hells as deputy.”]

["The purpose of us people sneaking in is to destroy the 'sacred objects'. Once the sacred objects in the city are destroyed, the coalition forces can easily capture Violet."]

According to Absalom.

The reason why the coalition forces chose them to come over was because both the Queen of Pain and the King of Wrath believed that Absalon was theirs.

In addition, half of these three thousand devils are people from the Angry Hell, and half are from the Pain Hell - of course, they are all Li Pu's people.

["The legion commander is very cautious. In order for us to actually carry out the task of breaking the city, he gave us very little bitter fern."]

["We are far more powerful than mortals, and we need more laws to maintain ourselves outside of hell."]

[Therefore, we need to consume more bitter fern. When the bitter fern is used up, if the violet city has not been destroyed, our form in the human world will rapidly weaken, and then gradually fall back into hell. ”]

["However, when I came out, I secretly bribed the quartermaster, so I did have a lot of bitter ferns in my hand."]

["But there are too many people in the city. If we divide the bitter ferns in our hands equally, we can use them for up to three days. Although these people are very weak, to be honest, they are still somewhat useful."]

Absalon has had many contacts with the lords under the Grand Duke in the past few days, and his evaluation of this human force is quite good.

Even the entire legion valued Violet. Otherwise, it would be enough to just push it flatly, and we would not specially send three thousand elites to mix with Violet to destroy the sacred objects.

Hell believes that if it weren't for the fog, people would become "weeping pilgrims". Then this group of desperate people will definitely fight against hell to the end. If there is more support from the Kingdom of Heaven, the Violet Fortress will become a nail in front of the Legion's iron hoof.

At least in Absalom's view, those legion cannon fodder that they cannot handle still need to be dealt with by the lords.

Just three thousand of them couldn't defend it.

'Dante is a loser. "Li Puxian secretly said: "A few days ago, I was in high spirits, passionate about saving the world, and shouted loud slogans. As a result, in the past few days, there has been no sound. '

In the secret contest with the Queen of Pain, Dante obviously failed. Moreover, seeing that the coalition forces were about to attack the city, he did not mediate to delay the attack. If Absalom was not one of his own, the city would probably have been destroyed.

Not only that, even the bitter ferns in Absalon's hands were obtained by them through various means, and the King of Wrath did not help at all.

According to Absalom, Dante's original plan was for Absalom to help the cult open a gate to hell first and summon Dante, the king of hell, to the human world.

At that time, the doomsday-like god will come to the world.

The armies of the angry hell will pour out from the violet under His magic wings.

At that time, whether it is logistical problems such as the bitter fern, the problem of defending the city, or the problem of sealing the saint, we will receive the most powerful support.

Everything will be solved easily.

But in the past few days, Dante suddenly asked Absalom to terminate this plan, and even his many incarnations in the human world suddenly hid.

'I don't know what caused this wallflower to start swaying again. '

Li Pu asked in his heart: ["When will the coalition forces attack the city?"]

Asabron replied in his heart: ["The fog protects hell, and the coalition forces move very fast in the fog. As long as we send out the message, the coalition forces can arrive at the city on the same day."]

After a pause, Absalom continued: "Your Majesty, in fact, the King of Anger originally wanted us to stay in the world and help Violet defend the city. So some time ago, He would send people secretly to send some bitter ferns every day. .”]

["But yesterday's and today's shares were not sent on time. Many plans were even terminated."]

'What on earth did this wallflower discover? '

Li Pu had a vague feeling.

Even if Dante discovers that Li Pu can help him open the door to the real paradise of madness, the guy may not change his mind.

However, Li Pu must tie Dante to his chariot.

At the very least, He must provide the bitter fern.

Li Pu said to Absalom in his heart: ["I will make that wallflower change his attention.']

The reason why Li Pu planned to meet the Violet People's demand for Holy Communion was not because of the Holy Mother's Heart, nor was it even entirely to allow the lords to firmly defend the city.

It's because Li Pu is afraid that people will become pilgrims.

In other words, become a 'weeper of suffering'.

The number of 'suffering weepers' is now too great.

They are a group of people who pray to the Holy Lady. The saint may be awakened by hearing the suffering of the people.

And even if He is not awakened, some suffering people may still perceive the will of the Saint in prayer.

Therefore, they are not only a group of saintly women who can awaken, but also a group of hidden 'Themis'!

With each additional pilgrim, the probability of the Saint's awakening increases.

For every additional pilgrim, there is one more person who needs to be pulled into the paradise of evil and sealed!

Therefore, Hell must be allowed to provide a large number of bitter ferns and reduce the number of pilgrims.

Otherwise, things will become very difficult!

I don't know when, the lords who were chatting in the hall all became quiet at this time.

Everyone was looking at Li Pu cautiously, with an almost pleading look, waiting for Li Pu's decision on the 'Holy Communion (Bitter Fern)' matter.

In the eyes of the lords, Saron did not have many bitter ferns in his hands, and the Knights were the most important fighting force.

Therefore, the Knights' supply priority is the highest. Therefore, everyone feels that it is reasonable for Li Pu to spare a cent.

But the mist gave Violet endless suffering, and the soldiers had already suffered too much.

If the Holy Communion is no longer used, those bleeding soldiers will all be exiled outside the city and weep with the pilgrims.

"Salon, distribute the bitter ferns." Li Pu said, "I will figure out what to do next."

Absalom bowed to accept the order and told the lords where to send people to get it later. Then he asked one of his subordinates to go to the Knights' military camp to report the latest order.

The lords originally thought that Li Pu would only give them a small share at most.

But he didn't expect that he would order the knights to divide the bitter fern equally!

The Duke opened his mouth to remind: "Nip, the Holy Knights are far more important than our troops. If the bitter fern is distributed, what is left in your hands will only be enough for three days."

"My Lord Duke, three days is enough." Li Pu said: "Within three days, everyone in the Violet Land will receive the Holy Communion. Pilgrims will cease to exist."

"And in three days, the shadows covering the violets will recede along with the fog, and hell will also retreat."

Although everyone already believed that Li Pu came on behalf of the Kingdom of Heaven, the words Li Pu praised were still too loud.

Because the Kingdom of Heaven certainly does not have such great capabilities.

Although the lords did not dare to question this matter with their mouths, they could not help but secretly criticize it in their hearts.

Someone couldn't help but ask: "Sir, what if not even the Kingdom of Heaven or even you can end this catastrophe?"

It seems that in the subconscious mind of the lords, Li Pu is more reliable than the Kingdom of Heaven.

'If I can't do it either.' Li Pu looked at the huge shadow above the fog outside the window and thought to himself: 'Then the world will be over. '

After a pause, Li Pu looked at the lords: "You don't have to think about these things. Your job is to keep the violet for me."

"The catastrophe is my job. You do your own thing well, and I will take care of the things you can't."

In any case, the arrival of Li Pu and his knights gave the lords a lot more confidence.

This sudden arrival is like a giant that shines light in the darkness. As soon as he arrived here, he stood in front of everyone, stretched out his hand, and supported the tilting sky!

Regardless of whether he can hold up the crumbling sky, his presence allows those confused people standing behind him in the darkness to see a glimmer of light in his shadow.

Confused people have a goal - to do their own thing.

If the sky falls, there will be tall people holding it up.

Everyone is no longer unfounded.

Looking at the lords in the hall who were gradually getting excited again, the Duke thought to himself: 'I hope this man is as worthy of his name as the rumors say. '

At this time, a nobleman ran in from outside the door and said a few words in the ear of the Grand Duke. After hearing this, the Grand Duke's face became very gloomy.

"Your Excellency Nip, please excuse me." The Duke nodded slightly apologetically to Li Pu, and then left the table.

Several of the Grand Duke's ministers bowed gracefully to Li Pu and others, and then followed the Grand Duke out.

Grand Duke Alfred is like order in the hall. After he left, the hall immediately became chaotic again.

The nobles and lords came forward one after another. They did not dare to approach Li Pu, but they all wanted to get closer to him. So they got together with Absalom and others, the nuns, and even Charlie and others who escorted Li Pu and others, and talked about things.

At this time, a nobleman wearing a wig came to Li Pu and said: "Your Excellency Nip, Ms. Irene, please come with me. The Duke is waiting for you in the semi-study."

"Lord Nip." Irene whispered, "It should be about those heads."

Li Pu nodded and called Absalom. Follow Irene and the nobleman out the door.

"Just in time, Katerina!" Elizabeth shouted, pulling Katerina: "Let's follow Nip and meet our father! This must be the first time you have met in a private setting, right?"

"I, I don't want to go." Katerina turned her head away. But Elizabeth held her firm.

At this time, Li Pu just walked to the door and heard the two people shouting behind him, so he turned around and said: "Let's go, Katerina. You should meet your father."

Katerina hesitated for a moment and followed the team.

On the way, Irene whispered to Li Pu: "Sir, everyone is very concerned about the Holy Communion. Today, the lords came here to discuss the matter with the Duke. Logically speaking, no one should be absent. However, many people were not Come."

Li Pu's heart moved slightly: "You mean, those heads?"

"That's right, sir. There are several heads that look familiar to me. But that's not what I'm most worried about." Irene said: "I suspect that the real mastermind behind the scenes is in the city - the nobles may have already Being incited to rebel, the devils may have lurked into the city."

"What Ms. Irene said is absolutely true." Saron pondered for a moment and said, "I have also been looking for the mysterious black hand."

Li Pu glanced at 'Salon' with a strange expression.

Absalom coughed awkwardly, and he hurriedly explained to Li Pu secretly:

["Your Majesty, I am indeed more than just Saron in the human world, and I have been controlling my thousands of incarnations to do things for Dante."]

["I always thought that all things were secretly promoted by us (Hell)."]

["But recently, I suddenly discovered that we may not be chess players!"]

["There is an invisible and intangible black hand that has been secretly controlling everything. We are all chess pieces."]

["Holy Lord! The cult created by Dante is beyond everyone's control!"]

["Maybe He hid because He discovered something. And if it weren't for those werewolves, I would still be kept in the dark!"]

["There is something wrong with this city!"]
