Chapter 893 The storm is coming
The screen went black, and a background music that sounded very similar to "Faded" began to play, and a line of subtitles popped up:
About five minutes ago.
Nick Congreve returned home after a day of hard training.
The gray-haired, muscular demigod washed off the blood and sweat on his body in the bathroom, and according to the tradition of the ascetic sect, he began to meditate as usual.
After an unknown amount of time, he seemed to smell the scent of charcoal fire. He suddenly opened his eyes and saw Archbishop Edward sitting on a chair in front of him, wearing a spotless white priestly robe.
"you!"
Nick Congreve jumped up quickly, and in the air he condensed into invisible whips, which he lashed at Archbishop Edward.
"Mind Whipping!"
But the next second, his attack and himself were frozen in mid-air, unable to move at all. It was the deterrence and impact from divinity.
Archbishop Edward calmly tied a white napkin around himself. A charcoal fire lit before his eyes, and he bared his white teeth as he spoke:
"A demigod from the Ascetic sect? What a coincidence! You're the first demigod I killed after my return."
He was calm and rational, and spoke in a relatively deep male voice.
Nick Congreve stiffened all over, raised his head with difficulty, looked at Archbishop Edward and asked:
"Why, why me?"
Archbishop Edward came over, looked at him, and said with a polite smile:
"There's no reason. Someone has to die first."
"Also, wouldn't it be interesting to be able to eat the Sun's followers when he's not paying attention and weaken his strength in the process?"
"And by eating you, I can also share your memories and abilities, which is also very important to me."
Nick Congreve's eyes were about to burst as he began to struggle violently. After a long period of hard training, his physical strength was far beyond the reach of ordinary demigods, and even cracks appeared on his strong muscles.
However, as Archbishop Edward stretched out his finger and tapped him, his body immediately became stiff and tense. Through close-up, players could even see the dense goose bumps on his skin.
Archbishop Edward adjusted the napkin on his chest and said with a smile:
"Did you mean to inform Meredith, the angel of the Church of the God of War who lives not far away? Unfortunately, it's too late. I checked your fate before I came here.
"The time of death has come."
"No!" Nick Congreve's voice rang out in pain.
With the elegant BGM, the screen went completely dark.
When the screen came back on, it was locked on Zhou Ning, showing him becoming the King of Angels, accompanied by a few subtitles:
"Do you hear Darklan wailing? Do you hear the cries of the dead? To fight the evil forces so close at hand, to fight against the legendary righteous gods, Wayne Stewell needs your help. Survive or perish, are you ready to contribute your strength?"
"whether?"
As a white glove-shaped pointer touched "Yes", the background switched to pure black.
Against a black background, Wayne Stewell, wearing a black top hat and a black windbreaker, appeared in the middle. To his left, there jumped out one after another: Jasmine, wearing a white priest robe and a hood, with a cool temperament; Leonardo, holding a flaming sword and with a scar on his face; and Stuart Crow, with a serious expression and holding the Saint Zachary's scepter; to his right, there was Esdeath with a cold expression; Miracle Yu Ni, wearing a black priest robe and with a calm expression; and Meredith, with a slender figure and wearing a black hood.
Seven figures appeared one by one, and then near the bottom, a line of subtitles filled with blazing flames appeared:
“Shadow of Death is officially here! Waiting for you to fight!”
The series ends with the seventeenth episode.
After watching this episode, even Zhou Ning, who had already deeply realized the power of Archbishop Edward, couldn't help but get goosebumps.
If nothing unexpected happened, Nick Congreve should have died, or even been "eaten". Zhou Ning could sense the despair in the other person's heart through the screen.
If he didn't have a puppet doll that could revive him once, his fate would probably not have been much better when he was arrested on the spot by Archbishop Edward.
This is the power of the righteous gods!
Of course, now that he has the two colorful advent cards of the Lord of Immortal Qin and the Eternal Sword God, under normal circumstances, he should be able to fight Archbishop Edward. But he is afraid of repeating the same mistake as before and not being able to use the inventory. He doesn't want to experience the feeling of knowing that he is in a dream but unable to wake up a second time.
However, he had already made preparations this time and reserved an avatar in the Kingdom of God. Originally, it was impossible to return to the "Kingdom of God" with just a thought. He needed to spend 1-2 seconds to actively recite the honorable name in order to generate enough summoning power for the "Creator God of Light" to open the door to the Kingdom of God and allow himself to return smoothly. It was also easy to be disturbed.
Zhou Ning still felt terrified by the ambush by the Life Spirit Goddess, so this time he had proactively reserved an avatar in the Divine Kingdom and hidden it within the world of "Legend of the Imperial Equipment." If anything happened, he could call his honored name in the Divine Kingdom and instantly return.
After confirming that the Kingdom of God was still safe, Zhou Ning took out his pocket watch and took a look. It was now 11:40 pm. Considering the current situation, the impeachment plan against the Braxton royal family originally scheduled for the day after tomorrow must not continue.
Only now did he understand that Archbishop Edward's actions, though seemingly random, were actually very targeted. Chin West, the leader of the Sun Watchers; Sherlock, the Sun Watchers' intelligence core, temporarily replacing Chin West; and Nick Congreve, the Archdeacon of the Ascetic Church and one of the leaders of the Inquisition, to whom the Sun Watchers were effectively responsible.
Although these three people were not the strongest, they were undoubtedly the core figures of the Sun Guardians. Without them, the Sun Guardians would be in chaos when the critical moment came.
As for what to do next... Zhou Ning took a deep breath. He had no other choice. He had to take the risk and go to Dockland again to talk to Stuart Crowe and Meredith.
Under the pressure of the enemy's layers of conspiracy and overt plotting, this battle is absolutely inevitable.
Zhou Ning took a deep breath and used the authority of [Border Crosser] without hesitation to teleport to Darklan.
The next second, his figure slowly disappeared from the room and appeared in the Witsel Church Square.
……
In addition, this episode, which is full of practical information and exciting, also set off the Apocalypse Forum.
Jinse, who rarely spent the prime time of 12: AM leveling up instead of playing a raid, was absorbed in scanning forum posts. Even though she had no money and couldn't become the hero who opened the gate this time, it didn't stop her from wanting to perform well in this main quest and be the most impressive one.
Unlike the previous versions, where players were completely certain of Zhou Ning's victory, this time the boss, the Life Elf Goddess, was incredibly powerful, terrifying, and possessed a treacherous ability that far exceeded players' expectations, for the first time creating a sense of uncertainty about their chances of victory in the main storyline.
Speculations about the power of the Life Elf Goddess and the direction of the plot were posted one after another in a short period of time. Among them, the most popular post was the famous Wayne hater, who is currently known as the clown Grantham in everyone's eyes.
"First of all, I want to apologize to everyone. I shouldn't have taken my words out of context and started a memorial service for Wayne Stewell right after reading the opening. Although I still believe that the core of this plot is tragedy, and Wayne Stewell will most likely die, as the guide of the plot, he has already accomplished a lot and achieved greatness."
