A+ A- Turn Off Light

  Silver City, top of the Round Tower, Chief’s Room.

  Colin Iliad, with his white hair and aged scarred face, looked out the window into the deep darkness until a sharp silver-white aura suddenly erupted in the distance, bringing light for a few seconds before he withdrew his gaze and nodded softly:

  ”Hilmon has successfully been promoted ……”

  His eyes then fell on the teenager standing in the center of the room, who was only two meters out:

  ”Derek, do you know why after the initial exploration of the ‘Giant’s Royal Court’, I, who had already become a Sequence 3 ‘Silver Knight’, kept my subsequent plans pressed and did not implement them?”

  Derek thought for a moment and said:

  ”Chief Sir, on the one hand, you were trying to see if there was another way around to the coast, and on the other hand, you were waiting for someone from the other elders of the ‘Council of Six’ to be promoted to Sequence 3.”

  And now, both of those things were accomplished:

  Nearly five months ago, a team of explorers from Silver City had discovered a hidden path that bypassed the peak where the “Giant’s Court” was located and reached the sea, however, the sea was illusory and was impossible to pass through, and forcing oneself into the water would only result in the gradual disintegration of one’s body;

  Now, another demigod of the “Council of Six”, Werther Hilmon, has finally been promoted to become a “Silver Knight” of Sequence 3, who can have his own honorable name and answer the prayers of the rest of the residents of Silver City within a certain range.

  Colin Iliad sighed and said:

  ”Very good, a clear and comprehensive understanding of things.

  ”If I didn’t really have no other choice, I really wouldn’t want to take you guys to enter the ‘Giant’s Court’ again and try to open the palace where the ‘Dark Angel’ is sleeping… …”

  Speaking here, “Demon Hunter” Colin paused before continuing:

  ”I didn’t know how much danger such a quest would bring, so I could only make adequate preparations in advance, and now, Sylmon has finally succeeded, and even if something happens afterward and we can’t return, he and the rest of the Elders will be able to hold up Silver City, so that everything can continue to be maintained and wait for the next opportunity.”

  He surveyed Derek for a few seconds and nodded approvingly:

  ”Your growth has been better than I expected, and if the matter of the ‘Giant’s Court’ hadn’t been started by you, I would have really wanted to keep you in Silver City under the name of Reserve Elder of the ‘Council of Six’. ”

  Hearing this, Derek Berg replied without hesitation:

  ”Even if you wish to keep me in Silver City, I shall apply to go.”

  This was the light he had seen, this was the one chance in his mind that he could save Silver City, and for that he was willing to give everything.

  Colin Iliad gave a rare little smile:

  ”You are still too young, when you have experienced a lot of things like I have, you will understand that it is a much more difficult and agonizing thing to endure humiliation and helplessness, and to stand firm in the darkness, than to draw your longsword and sacrifice yourself full of fervor.

  ”If you don’t believe me, you can ask Hilmon later, and ask him if he is willing to lead a questing squad to the ‘Court of the Giants’ or stay in Silver City.”

  Derek lapsed into silence, opening his mouth but unable to speak.

  Colin Iliad did not continue the topic and asked instead:

  ”Has your ‘Priest of Light’ magic potion been thoroughly digested?”

  ”It was thoroughly digested last week.” Derek answered frankly.

  Colin Iliad nodded and said:

  ”Have you gathered all the auxiliary materials?”

  Derek let out a “hmm”:

  ”All gathered, only the ritual is not ready yet.”

  His ritual required the stripping away of the strongest and most unwilling emotions, and the infusion of them back after taking the magic potion.

  After several gatherings of the Tarot Club, as well as the private attempts of Ms. Justice, there is now a mature program:

  With the help of the Sequence 4 Manipulator’s mastery of the psychic realm, and using Mr. Fool’s “Angel’s Embrace” as a backing, it can be accomplished.

  ”Demon Hunter” Colin said calmly without prodding:

  ”Don’t be in a hurry, the second exploration of the ‘Giant’s Court’ will take some time.”

  ”Waiting for me to become a ‘Darkless One’?” Derek asked of his own accord.

  Colin Iliad did not deny it and nodded slightly:

  ”Also waiting for Lovia to become a ‘Dark Knight’, her materials and rituals are all ready.”

  Hearing this, Derek was instantly pressurized.

  ……

  At the top of the bell tower attached to the Church of the Waves, in the capital of the Rothschild Archipelago, the “City of Generosity”, Byam.

  Cardinal of the Church of the Storm, senior deacon of the “Substitute Punisher”, and “Sea King” Yarn Courtman stood behind the railing, looking out over the sea that wasn’t so blue anymore, as well as the flaming shipwrecks floating on top of it.

  ”Hmph, in my territorial waters, even the ‘Bishop of War’ has to lower his head ……,” this demigod with a muscular body and hard, deep lines on his face retracted his line of sight while whispering a sentence. whispered.

  He had a head of dark blue hair as thick as a bug and a pair of deep blue eyes, controlling the weather and ocean around the Rothschild Islands.

  Alger Wilson, who stood next to the “Sea King”, did not show the slightest annoyance, and waited patiently for Yann Courtman to turn his attention to him.

  –In addition to the fact that most of the Sailor Pathway’s extraordinary people are irritable, they also have in common the fact that they tend to tremble and obey when they face a high ranking person of the same Pathway, which originates from the characteristics of the “tyrant”.

  After whispering, “Sea King” Yarn Kautman finally turned his gaze to Alger, who was leading a fleet of “pirates”, and said with little expression:

  ”Your performance this time is very good, the Cardinal Council approved your review and decided to let me preside over your promotion ceremony.”

  After receiving the relics of the “Queen of Natural Disasters” Gohinam, Alger found an opportunity to report this matter to the “Sea King” Yarn Kautman.

  He started with the matter of exploring the elven relics in the primeval forest of Sunia Island, and gave an original account of his own encounters, only modifying two details:

  One was to describe the initiative to travel to the elven ruins as a deliberate search for a suitable place to ambush the Forsak forces, which was confirmed by a number of sailors who were present at the time;

  The second is to dilute the autonomy of the subsequent actions, only saying that the night of exploring the elven ruins dreamed of a certain female superior elf, drank a glass of wine from her, and after that nothing out of the ordinary happened, so I did not pay much attention to it, and then when I came to the Rothschild Islands, I woke up from a ripe sleep one night, and suddenly found myself entering a magnificent palace under the sea, and picking up a coral bubbling with electric light.

  Although there were many witnesses and physical evidence to show that Alger’s description was true, the “Sea King” Yarn Kautman did not fully believe it, and sent him back to the island of Pasu, under the scrutiny of Pope Gadd II.

  With the help of the Angel’s Embrace, Alger appeared to be trembling in front of that “tyrant-like” aura, and confessed without reservation that after meeting the female High Elf in a dream, he had developed a certain ambition, and for this reason took the initiative to travel to the Rothschild Islands in the hope of receiving the legacy, but in fact concealed the fact that he was not a member of the “Sea King”, but a member of the “Sea King”. But in reality, he covered up the core secret, the most serious problem.

  He passed the examination by confessing his “ambition”. As for whether the female High Elf had seen that he had some elven bloodline and gave him a strange opportunity, or whether she was hiding some purpose, he said that he wasn’t sure, and hoped that the Pope would investigate the answer to put his mind at ease.

  Alger showed a fear of that unknown, leading the Cardinals to believe that this was the main reason he reported the strange encounter.

  The scenario was designed by Alger himself, but with the advice of Ms. Justice to make every aspect more humane.

  Of course, as expected, after that, Alger did not wait for the promotion ceremony, but entered a period of investigation.

  –The Pope of the Church of Storms, an earthly angel, reinforced the seal in Alger’s body, making it impossible for the “Disaster Priest” trait to penetrate and affect him for two years.

  In the past half year, Alger led the pirate fleet assigned to him, and worked hard to harass the ships of Forsak and Feniport, and even directly participated in the sea battle, risking a lot to make one time and time again, fully demonstrating his devotion to the Lord of Storms, and his obedience to the orders of the Church.

  Finally, after the situation became more and more difficult after this recent Rothschild sea battle, he waited for the Cardinal Council’s approval.

  Alger drew in a visible breath, then clenched his right fist and struck his left breast, shouting:

  ”The storm is upon us!”

  His excitement was half-acting, half-from the heart, as he had really been under a lot of pressure for most of the year:

  Ms. “Hermit” had finished digesting the “Occultist” magic potion and was preparing for her promotion to Sequence 3 “Master of Prophecy”;

  Ms. “Justice” had not completely digested the “Manipulator” magic potion, but she had also made considerable progress. Moreover, she was a complete newcomer when she first joined the Tarot Club, but now she had become a true demigod and a half-human being, and she was higher than Alger by not just one sequence but one level. Rather, it was a level;

  It wouldn’t be long before “Sun” was promoted to Sequence 4, “No Dark One”, and gained divinity;

  ”Star has also digested the Sequence 5 magic potion and accumulated a lot of merits, waiting for the higher-ups to give him a chance;

  ”Ms. Magician is not far from finishing her potion after traveling again and again, and her teacher has prepared for her the appropriate materials for the Sequence 4 “Secret Mage” potion;

  It goes without saying that Gelman Sparrow “The World” would not be surprised if he suddenly stated that he had become an angel;

  Ms. “Judgement” is currently a Sequence 5 “Knight of Punishment” and is digesting the magic potion, trying to catch up with everyone’s progress;

  Moon”, who doesn’t like to fight by nature, has developed a certain degree of anxiety and is looking for the possibility of becoming a Blood Count.

  In the face of these circumstances, as one of the most senior members of the Tarot Club, Alger certainly did not want to be left behind, and he desperately longed to be promoted to Sequence 4 and become a demigod.

  After so many days, he had always suppressed the anxiety in his heart and waited patiently, twice showing signs of loss of control, so much so that he had to ask Ms. “Justice” to do the treatment.

  Now, he finally waited for the answer he wanted most:

  Pass the test and prepare for the ceremony!
