Chapter 2222 The Miserable Gods

The main task of the new ring is similar to the faction task of snatching the world core in the world battle. As long as one member of the same faction completes it, the task is considered completed by everyone.

The remaining fragments of the Halberd of Danes are placed in the sand city. Now the sand city is in Lin Jiu's control, and this part of the Halberd of Danes will be found soon.

Lin Jiu did not expect that the key to completing the previous ring of tasks would be in this unknown death cult. There is a plain wasteland in the central battlefield, also called the Land of Rest.

The scope of the Land of Rest is very large. It is located on the westernmost side of the central battlefield. Further west is the Land of Cold, which is frozen all year round and not suitable for living.

Looking around, the Land of Rest is not desolate. A tree that looks like a willow grows here, which is dozens of meters high. At night, the branches of the tree will emit a faint light, and it is beautiful under the flying fireflies.

This tree in the resting place is also called the Soul Tree. Whether it is Sand Flame or Peru, the civilians of both countries believe that after their death, their souls will float here and turn into a leaf of the Soul Tree to rest.

It is said that the first Tsar Emperor reached an alliance with the gods here. What is strange is that this neutral god has rarely appeared since he formed an alliance with the first Tsar Emperor.

Unlike the Maoshen Church in the Kingdom of Peru, even most people in Sand Flame Country do not know that the gods who have reached an alliance with Sand Flame Country have established such a church. The answer is obvious, that is, this god has been abandoned.

The image of the god of Sand Flame is female, and there are also rumors that it is male. It symbolizes death, sand, rebirth, etc. No one knows too much. The people of Sand Flame only know that there is this god. Rather than saying that it is a real god, it is better to say that it is a spiritual sustenance.

He was discovered by the mechanical insect race and brought to Lin Jiu because the appearance of this believer is different from the style of the people of Sand Flame Country, which attracted attention.

The clothes worn by the residents of Sand Flame Country are very monotonous, mostly in dull sand or khaki colors, as if blending into the vast desert. At the same time, the clothes are embroidered with complex patterns, which are often related to elements such as deserts, wind and sand, and sand dunes, implying their awe and worship of nature. The skin is even more unique bronze due to long-term grinding in the wind and sand.

And this believer is wearing a black robe, which is loose and heavy, as if it can swallow the surrounding light. If it is at night, it may blend into the night. At the same time, the robe is embroidered with unknown circles.

The eyes are deep in the eye sockets, and the eyes are empty and deep, as if they can look directly into people's souls. The lips are tightly closed, and the corners of the mouth are slightly drooping, giving people a feeling of indifference and ruthlessness.

After seeing Lin Jiu, this death believer did not have hostility or fear, but was very happy. From the other party's habitually bent mouth corners, it is known that this guy rarely smiles, and when he saw Lin Jiu, he rarely smiled.

"Your Excellency seems very happy? Aren't you worried that your country will perish?" Lin Jiu, who had been heading straight for the palace treasury, also became interested. The treasury was right there, guarded by a large army of mechanical insects and a part of the ram cavalry regiment, so there was no fear of losing it. He was now somewhat curious about the grievances between the Church of Death and the Sand Flame Kingdom.

The believer spoke, his voice was not very pleasant, hoarse and cold, and sneered: "Haha~ Whether it is the old king or the new king, they are shameful betrayers to my Lord. If I can witness the demise of this country, my Lord will be very happy."

It is obvious that this believer is definitely not an ordinary member of the Church of Death. His status is probably similar to that of the goddess under the command of the God of Growing Life. Of course, the main reason is that there are no ordinary believers in the Church of Death, and perhaps there are so few that only this guy is left.

Logically speaking, to become a king, it is enough to have strong soldiers and horses, just like Spring Steel Sheep in the Kingdom of Peru now, and there is no problem in becoming a queen. But in the Sand Flame Kingdom, it is abnormal to pay attention to the bloodline of the Penil family.

The root of the problem is that after the first Tsar established a contract with this god, he stabbed the god in the back. The Kingdom of Peru at that time disdained to cooperate with the gods, and the Sand Flame Kingdom gradually gained an advantage in the war with the Kingdom of Peru after cooperating with this god.

Why was the effect of the gods so obvious at the time? It was because the God of Growing and the God of Death were interrelated. The God of Death symbolizes death and rebirth, while the God of Growing symbolizes revival and growth. The two are mutually opposed and form a reincarnation relationship.

Because of the contractual relationship between the God of Death and the Sand Flame Kingdom, the God of Growing was vaguely on the side of the Sand Flame Kingdom, and the Sand Flame Kingdom naturally had an advantage. But no one expected that the purpose of the first Tsar to find the God of Death was not to suppress the Kingdom of Peru, but to steal the power of the gods.

Obviously, this plan was partially successful, and the stolen power was later developed into the blood inheritance of the Penil family. The God of Death secretly suffered such a great loss at that time, but under the terrifying combat power of the Legion, he could only bear it with frustration and almost disappeared.

The God of Life obviously saw this precedent, and before one of the Tsars had any ideas about him, he took the initiative and colluded with the Kingdom of Peru to start a rebellion with the three forces in the Sand Flame Kingdom.

Lin Jiu learned that not only these forces, but even the God of Death was inciting the flames to avenge the past. However, this also allowed the three forces that were the knife to catch the tail. The current Tsar’s lineage aimed at the royal power and the power of the God of Maosheng, and the force where Carlos was located was targeting the God of Death.

They all got the complete method of the Penil family to steal the power of the gods. Fortunately, the God of Maosheng ran fast and ran to the Kingdom of Peru, which didn’t care much about it, otherwise he would have stepped into the back road of the God of Death.

Judging from the existence of this death cultist, the God of Death is probably not dead yet, otherwise there would be no cultist here to reveal this information to him.

After gossiping, Lin Jiu went to the palace treasury. He didn’t care where the God of Death was still alive. It was enough to listen to the story and satisfy his curiosity. But it is not difficult to see that the God of Death is not a good person. The God of Maosheng is dead, and it is still alive, which is a manifestation of "victory".

Although as a god, most of his power was devoured and he hid in shame, at least he got out of such a pit. From the first generation of the Tsar to the present, being alive is a skill. But no matter what, the fate of this god of death is indeed miserable enough.

Regarding the disappearance of the current Tsar and his men, Lin Jiu can probably guess where they went. Of course, it was the border battlefield, where about 70% of the legion forces of the Sand Flame Kingdom were stationed. In their eyes, the real enemy has always been the Kingdom of Peru, and they never thought that they would be stolen by an unknown force and almost taken away in one wave.

When they arrive at the border and fight back with the legion's power, there will be a chance to turn the tables. As for the possibility of the border being lost, the hometown is almost gone, who cares about this. At most, let the most capable Kukulin Baiye and his soldiers watch here.

Why not let Su Xiao lead the troops to attack back? It's still the trust issue.
