Demon Sage

v3 Chapter 83: Desperate!

The capital of the Lane Empire, it was late at night at this time.

In the observatory at the top of the brightly lit castle, someone is watching the bright starry sky outside the skylight of the dome through a huge astronomical telescope.

He moved the joystick beside him with his palm, and hundreds of mechanical gears that meshed and overlapped in the mechanical platform under the telescope began to rotate, and the brass-colored metal mirror body also moved slightly under the light.

After a while, the person looking at the stars seemed to recall something from the past, and suddenly straightened up, the hands that were originally on the rocker at his side were behind his back, and the gorgeous and delicate gemstone ring was under the bright yellow light in the observatory. Glittering brilliant light.

Soon someone next to me brought a glass of wine.

Made of gold, with a gem-encrusted cup body, the amber-colored wine ripples slightly along the swing of the palm, exuding a mellow fragrance.

"When I was little, maybe 8, maybe 9, I asked my father how many stars there were in the night sky and he told me there was no end."

After taking a sip of wine, he picked up the silk handkerchief on the plate and wiped the corners of his mouth. The man went on to say,

"You know, when we were kids, we didn't care about some of our elders' remarks. Then I thought, since these stars are all real, how can they be endless?"

At this time, there were still a few people standing behind him, tall or short, fat or thin, the only thing that was the same was the respect and humility on their faces. He hurriedly closed his mouth, lowered his head, and continued to maintain a humble posture.

"So I went to ask my religious teacher. He told me that all the stars were created by gods, and they were thousands of incarnations of them. If I wanted to know how many there were, I could communicate with the gods with my own devotion and ask them to get the exact details. Numbers, this may be a good method, but I have never been a believer of anyone, so how can I get my religious beliefs?"

"I went to my astronomy teacher again, and he told me that the stars in the sky are not infinite, but no one has ever actually counted them, and no one can guarantee that the numbers they have counted are absolutely correct, so people think this is The existence in the starry sky cannot be explored, and since it cannot be explored, then nature is infinite.”

Having said this, he has moved to the table in the observatory and sat down, looked back at the person next to him, and then said,

"From that moment on, I knew that the so-called infinity, the so-called omnipotence and omnipotence, is just the wishful thinking of mortals."

One of the people who had been standing beside them finally stepped out of the queue, placed a suitcase-like thing on the table, and unlocked the lock with a special technique and password.

The star map that once appeared in Demingham has returned to its original place at some point!

The layers of fog dissipated, and the two light spots it had been tracking finally converged in one place—Lapagad.

"The messenger has delivered the treasure, and the justice sect should accept it with pleasure, so are you ready to accept their return gift?"

He had seen this star map too many times, just glanced at it to confirm the content, then waved people to withdraw, continued to sip the wine in his glass, and asked with a light smile.

"Everything is ready, I've been looking forward to it for a long time."

Another took a step back.

"I am looking forward to that day as much as you, and I hope you can draw a perfect end to these years of planning."

Raising the empty hand and waving gently, those people turned and left without hesitation.

The door then closed.

"How can you count the stars in the night sky?"

In the observatory with only one person left, he questioned again.

"Naturally it was a cloudy night. At that time, there were no stars in the night sky, so there was not a single one!"

The early morning sun shines on every brick in Lapagad City, and it is another sunny day.

Unlike other areas of the Lion Empire, the plateau where Lapagad is located is sunny for more than half of the year, and occasional wind and rain are only short-lived.

The cool breeze of the plateau blew through this neat and beautiful city, and the bells from the Temple of Justice echoed in the city.

The people began their morning prayers again.

Some people's prayers are low and loud. This is a humble chapter in the sect of justice. It teaches people to act with kindness and justice, and not to be mixed with personal feelings.

Some people's prayers are fierce and heroic. This is a chapter of struggle in the righteous denominations. It teaches people that when they encounter injustice, they need to stand up and fight against it.

The sect of justice is an excellent sect.

At least that's what their teachings are, or that's true for the commoners.

But this era, after all, does not belong to these civilians.

"Brother Donald, what do I need to do later?"

Julia took a bite from the apple in both hands, and she was so nervous that her face was a little reddish.

She doesn't know what she should be worried about, because until now, she still doesn't quite understand what the soul that exists in her body is.

It's just because of the atmosphere in the team and the very special place to go today, I can't help but feel worried.

"Relax, you just need to cooperate with the actions of the Justice Sect later, they should take out the soul in your body, and by means of the Temple of Justice, it should not take too much time. In fact, the real trouble should be A few of us."

Compared with Julia, Donald should actually be more nervous, because he is the one who is going to negotiate with the Temple of Justice later.

Don't forget that the delivery of the "Holy Son" is just a unilateral act of the Ryan Empire, and the Justice Sect has not received any information at all, and everything has to be informed by them.

To put it simply, what Donald and the others are doing now is to send a "time bomb" to their door when the Justice Sect is not paying attention, and then knock on the door and tell them that this bomb has to be dealt with by them, otherwise if it happens later Exploded, he is not responsible.

This kind of rogue logic, in exchange for other sects, Donald even felt that the other party might directly treat them as heretics and eliminate them.

The one that was directly nailed to the stake and burned to the point where there were no bones left.

Because of this, Donald has been thinking about how to communicate with the Justice Sect so that things can go smoothly.

After all, Donald doesn't know much about this sect.

Although his first stop in this world was the missionary city of the Justice Sect.

Cut the sausage on the dinner plate into two parts, feed one to Finger's mouth, and eat the other by himself. His eyes fell on Lilo, who was sitting on the window sill and basking in the sun.

"Liluo, you will be waiting for us in the hotel later, after all, it is the Temple of Justice, no one can say whether there will be some detection circles in it, your status is special, and it is not suitable to be close to this bone spirit. The plate, you also help me to keep it, so that I can't explain it clearly."

After all, it represents the Temple of Justice, where the core of the Justice Sect is located. No matter how well-guarded it is, Donald doesn't find it strange.

As a high-level undead, Lilo is almost a mortal situation if her identity is exposed, even if her current strength has recovered nearly 80%, it is still the same.

And although the demon serpent soul in this bone spirit plate can be used to prevaricate the past with the recovered evil soul, it will be less if one thing is less.

Being careful with details is never a bad thing.

Even if it wasn't because he was the person in charge of this mission, or the only one who knew the inside story, Donald might have asked Anthony to negotiate.

Who let himself have control over the tome and control part of the demonic power.

"Donald, the Justice Sect team, are approaching this way!"

Lilo on the window sill suddenly sent a message to Donald, who immediately stood up and walked over the dining table to the window.

Not far from the street outside the hotel, a team of fully armed knights was approaching.

"There is also on the right!"

Looking further to the right, there are also knights rushing over there.

"what happened?"

Donald's expression suddenly gloomy.

The other party is aggressive, obviously it will not be a morning exercise of the Justice Sect or a church ceremony.

He had a hunch that this was what came for them!

"Could it be that Horn leaked the news?"

Anthony had also come to the window at this time and said softly.

This guess is not unreasonable, after all, they were in the ranks of the Justice Sect when they saw Horn and his party in Lapagad.

"I can't think of why he did this. In fact, the question now is why the Justice Sect would put up such a position to 'welcome' us."

As an insider, Donald understands what their mission is, and Horn obviously understands that it doesn't make any sense for him to inform the Justice Sect, after all, they are going to tell the Justice Sect the truth today.

"Go ask if they know soon?"

Stefani put down the glass and got up to find Horn and the others who were staying in the same hotel as them.

However, at this moment, Donald only felt a burst of energy through his body.

Immediately, a voice sounded in his mind.

"I declare that there is no talent here!"

In the next second, Donald was like a dehydrated fish. He felt that the strength in his body was being drawn away in an instant, and the sudden weakness caused him to lean back on the window sill reluctantly.

"Donald! Did you hear me?"

Anthony on the opposite side swayed for a while~lightnovelpub.net~ He obviously heard that sentence too.

"My talent is useless!"

Stefani tried to activate his talent, but found that even his emotions could no longer be affected.

"Although my talents can't be used, my physical fitness has not changed, Donald, this is a conspiracy, a trap! We have to get out of here!"

Anthony clenched his fist and found that his body, which had been strengthened by talent, was still normal, and he immediately wanted to leave here.

But what he saw when he looked up was the bitterness on Donald's face.

"Anthony, have you forgotten? This is the seat of the Temple of Justice!"

Through Anthony's test, Donald quickly realized that his mental power could still be used, but he did not feel the slightest ease.

On the contrary.

Donald is chilling all over now!
