The Griffon Castle.
The castle on the hill actually had another name, the Outpost of the Light.
It consisted of twenty-five Guardians of the Light, four Giant Griffon, and six Grey Griffon, as an outpost to monitor the monsters in the Fallen Land and to receive the pilgrims from the surface who came to the Sacred Valley.
The castle was very similar to the medieval European castles.
The main body was made of rocks.
The exterior was decorated with a layer of marble slabs and carvings of unknown stone.
The decorative patterns were mostly seen in the records of some miracles, and there were also images of various holy creatures. However, what surprised Lin Dong and Yun Jiyu was that although there were patterns of angels with wings, they were very rare, and the holy land did not seem to regard the cross as a sacred symbol. Instead, they regarded the six-pointed star and its variants as holy emblems.
Lin Dong looked at Cardinal Nero.
He found that the cardinal was unmoved.
He was too lazy to meddle.
Besides.
These were not things that Easterners could meddle in. The beliefs of the Western world might have to be so diverse.
Around the castle, unknown flowers and naturally growing exotic fruit trees were in full bloom. Bees buzzed around the flowers, birds sang happily on the branches, and huge fruits hung on the branches. One could not help but sigh at the unique gift of nature in this holy land. Nature, harvest, and a peaceful and leisurely living environment. Such an existence could never be seen in the surface world!
It was possible that there was such an environment in the surface world.
However.
Humans had already destroyed it.
"For medieval people, this place is as beautiful as the legendary Garden of Eden!" Big Ivan could not help but sigh when he saw all this.
"If you like it, you can stay for a few more days!" Josiah smiled and teased.
"Even if this is heaven, my future belongs to hell!" Big Ivan shrugged his shoulders.
"You have a clear understanding of yourself." David clapped his hands gently.
"What's the difference between you and me?" Big Ivan retorted.
"Of course it's different. Even if I'm in hell, my heart yearns for heaven. It's the opposite of you!" David was very glib, and it was impossible for Big Ivan to refute him easily.
"I only know that you almost peed your pants!" Big Ivan retorted with David's performance when he was chased by the Devourer.
"I almost didn't." David's face was impervious to swords and spears. As long as it didn't involve using the Devouring Demon to plot against Lin Dong, he was in the right and wasn't afraid of bickering.
"I hope your glorious image can be maintained …" Big Ivan could not be bothered to argue with this person anymore. David was indeed very sinister, but Big Ivan knew that this person would not be able to make a comeback in the end. Just the fact that he had maliciously set a trap for Mr. Wood had already determined the outcome. Perhaps Mr. Wood would not fall out with him on the spot out of consideration for the unity of the Exploration Team, but once he was on Mr. Wood's blacklist, David would not be able to survive for long.
The other side.
Griffon and Jonathan huddled together and whispered in each other's ears.
They realized that the two Guardians of Light who rode the giant Griffon were actually the strongest members of their team. They were probably captains.
Among the rest of the 20-odd Guardians of Light, only the other two were probably captains, and their strength was slightly closer. The rest of the ordinary members were all at the next level, similar to Griffon and Jonathan during the last year's trip to Purgatory.
"Actually, they're not weak. Each of them has more than 20 points of combat power. That's not bad!" Jonathan remembered that he was at this level when he entered Purgatory.
"They're different from us. They've already reached the peak. We had just been injected with the gene potion not long ago!" Griffon shook his head.
"Griffin, you have to think about this. The entire Holy Land is probably filled with people with such combat power. What does this mean? The Holy Land has their own unique method of creating super powerhouses. Although the effect is not as good as Mr. Wood's gene potion, if there are tens of thousands of people, or even more, who have reached this level, then it's equivalent to a huge force! " Remiga felt that the Holy Land was very powerful. After all, it took Mr. Wood more than two years to create only a few hundred genetic warriors. It was far from breaking through a thousand.
"The Holy Land can't be filled with Guardians of Light, right?" Griffon had never thought about this and was shocked when he thought about it.
"Why don't we ask how many people and how many Guardians of Light there are in the Holy Land?" Jonathan wanted to know the specific number.
"He won't tell you the truth." Griffon shook his head. Only a fool would tell you the real number.
"Let's try!" Jonalin still did not give up.
They knew that they should ask.
Definitely not.
So they cleverly found Fox and Enoko Kazama and asked the two queens for help.
Enoko Kazama refused immediately. She did not think that she, who had an Asian face, would be useful in the Holy Land. In fact, countless cases had proven that Westerners and Asians had completely different aesthetics.
Westerners thought it was beautiful, but Asians often wanted to vomit when they saw it.
Asians thought it was beautiful, but Westerners complained that the so-called Asian beauty's contours were not clear, and their faces were blurry.
Besides.
This was the Holy Land of Westerners. Westerners were born with a superior mentality, and they were afraid that they would be inflated to the limit. For a transcendent existence like Lemaire, it was already very kind of him to speak to Asians. Hoping to get information from him through a honey trap or other means, don't even dream about it! It was simply impossible!
Fox thought about it and also waved his hand.
"Why?" Griffon was surprised. Enoko Kazama rejected him with the excuse that she was Asian. You are a Westerner through and through!
"Because I have decided that other than the Kami that you mentioned, there will not be a second person that I believe in. Even if it is a disgusting pretense, I will not do it. So I'm sorry, I can't help you!" Fox made it clear that he would not help.
"Fox, have you really made up your mind? That is the path of becoming the enemy of the world. You have to think carefully! "Griffon was shocked by Fox's decision.
"What I want is to become the enemy of the world!" Fox shrugged his shoulders indifferently.
"You're awesome!" Griffon gave him a thumbs up.
Although Griffon repeatedly called Lin Dong the Kami and claimed to be his number one die-hard fan, he was actually timid to completely fall out with the Western forces and become the enemy of the Western forces. He had always been following Lin Dong without any hesitation, but he absolutely did not dare to say this to the outside world. Because he knew that some things could be done but could not be said, or else he would become the enemy of the whole world!
After all, Lin Dong only represented the future.
The current real world was still in the hands of the Western forces.
Perhaps, in the future, Lin Dong would take off this crown, but before that, the Western forces would definitely not be willing to let go of the crown, and vowed to launch the fiercest counterattack.
This was Fox's decision.
Not to mention that Griffon did not dare to make a decision easily, even a thousand-year-old force like the Palace of Darkness did not dare to easily choose a side. After all, the feeling of becoming the enemy of the world was too terrifying!
Griffon Castle, the outpost of the Light, could not accommodate everyone.
Even for the Eden Army, only a limited number of leaders were lucky enough to be invited into the castle. The rest of the people all set up tents outside the castle.
"Everything about the Holy Land is good, but there is never darkness. It's a little uncomfortable to sleep." The exploration team was told that the Holy Land would always exist during the day, and there would never be darkness. If they wanted to rest, they had to pay attention to the quiet atmosphere. Big Ivan could not help but complain when he heard this. "It might be okay for a day or two, but if it's like this for a long time, will people be tortured by the day until they have a nervous breakdown?"
"You didn't participate in the battle, so you're not tired. Otherwise, even if there were nails or poisonous thorns on the ground, you would still be able to lie down and sleep!" Griffon did not think there was any problem with sleeping during the day at all.
"I think I saw the sky turn dark in the distance," Lin Dong suddenly said.
"Really?" Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
They looked in the direction Lin Dong was pointing.
But they did not find anything wrong.
There was still light over there, and there was no sign of darkness.
Philip, Big Ivan, and the others looked at each other. Logically speaking, Mr. Wood could not be lying, but everyone saw something strange in the sky. Could it be that Mr. Wood had been hallucinating? If it was not an illusion, didn't it mean that something unpredictable was happening in the Holy Land?
Seeing the commotion, Hugo came over to ask what was going on.
Lin Dong shook his head. "Maybe I saw it wrong!"
Yun Jiyu disagreed. "No, I saw it too. The sky did turn dark for a while, but it soon returned to normal! It's not surprising that you didn't notice it when it got dark. "
"Are you sure?" Bord hurriedly sent someone to invite the higher-ups of the Eden Army.
"Are you sure?" Red Archbishop Nero looked serious. "The light of the Holy Land is the will of the Lord. It is a miracle that will never be extinguished. It is impossible for a dark sky to exist, even for a second! Mr. Wood and Madam Yun, we are standing here and sincerely plead with you. Can you give us a definite answer? Where did you see the strange phenomenon? When did it happen? How long did it last? Besides you, who else saw it? "
"I just saw it by accident. I did not pay attention to the time before, and I don't know if the same thing happened before." Yun Jiyu shook her head. "The only answer I can give you is that the dark sky is about 100 kilometers away from here. It may be beyond the range of the Holy Land. I saw it turn dark for a while, and then it returned to light. Until now, it is still the same!"
"In the northeast? Impossible. That is the range of our Holy Land. In fact, the Holy Land is an independent world. Except for the Holy Gate, it is not connected to any other world! " Lemaire could not maintain the elegance on his face. He kept shaking his head, refusing to believe the vision Lin Dong and Yun Jiyu had seen.
"Ms. Yun, are your eyes sure they can see 100 kilometers away? I am not doubting you, but I beg you to give us more details! "Hilario also asked anxiously.
"Of course, it's impossible if I'm looking at small objects, but the sky over there has turned dark. I think what I saw should be the truth, and it wasn't just me who saw it. Blockhead was the first to see it, so I naturally followed suit. It was indeed a dark sky, and it was a very large area!" What Yun Jiyu said was the truth, and directly stated what he had seen.
"We saw it too, but we saw it slowly. The sky quickly returned to normal after one or two seconds!" Qianjun and Ye Qianru nodded.
"…" Lemaire still did not want to believe it.
He thought that Mr. Wood might be using this as an excuse to do something.
But he was a little curious. If this was used as an excuse, what kind of trick could he do? The dark sky in the distance should not be able to affect the overall situation!
Of course.
Since the other party had made a move, he had to take it.
Lemaire immediately calmed himself down and showed a smile, expressing his sincere gratitude to Lin Dong and Yun Jiyu.
"We will send people to investigate. If it is true, then we will definitely give the four of you the best gifts as thanks and compensation!" Lemaire waved his hand for the two Light Guard captains to come over, and ordered them to immediately ride on Giant Griffon and fly towards the northeast to investigate the "non-existent" dark sky vision.
"Yes!" The two Light Guard captains performed the Holy Land's unique etiquette, then brought out the Giant Griffon and prepared to ride on it.
"It's dark!" Bloody Mary suddenly screamed.
Everyone turned their heads towards the southwest.
They found that the southwest.
The sky was inexplicably dark. It covered a very large area, and it was not too far away from Griffon Castle. It was estimated to be around 30 to 40 kilometers away. Everyone in the exploration party could clearly see that it was indeed dark …
