The cavalry galloped in the wilderness, bringing with it the neighing of the warhorses and the wild laughter of the knights.
Earl Hauss sat in the carriage, calmly listening to the sounds coming from outside. He lay limply on the fur mattress as if he had no bones. The maidservant sat opposite him, as quiet as a statue.
Suddenly, he furrowed his brows.
"Something's wrong!" he said. "Why isn't there a single pedestrian along the way?"
By right, there should be many pedestrians on the road at this time of year. If these pedestrians met them, they would naturally be unlucky and lose their lives. It was nothing more than a quick death or a more painful death.
But … from the time they set off at noon until now, they had not even met a single pedestrian!
This was not normal, absolutely not normal!
"Is there a trap ahead?" the maidservant asked.
When it came to fighting, she might not necessarily lose to the other party. But she was good at advancing step by step, steadily and surely. She was far inferior to the other party in this kind of whizzing like the wind and winning by surprise.
The three Holy Spirits under the command of the God of Aristocracy each had their own strengths. One was good at adaptability, one was good at dispatching and arranging, and one was good at commanding troops. Now that the one who was good at dispatching had returned to the God Kingdom, the one who was good at adaptability would probably never return, and the one who was good at commanding troops would have to complete some finishing work.
This was their previous plan, but unfortunately, the plan could not keep up with the changes. Just as the plan was about to come to an end, an accident suddenly occurred.
Strictly speaking, there did not seem to be any obvious problems with the current situation. But as the saying went, "Something is wrong when something is abnormal." Suddenly, there was not a single pedestrian on the road. Behind this abnormal situation was a serious crisis.
Of course, people who were perfectly fine would not disappear, but Sui Xiong had used magic to confuse them and make them turn back.
He was not a god like Wenner who did not care about the lives of mortals for the sake of curiosity. Although he had arranged for Leon and the others to lead troops to hunt down this group of aristocratic bandit army, since he was already here, he would not let this group of bandit army kill even one innocent civilian!
As for whether this group of bandit army would be aware of the abnormality because of this? Would they be on guard? Sui Xiong only sneered at this.
When necessary, he was ready to strike at any time.
In this case, even if this group of bandit army was aware of the abnormality, even if they were on guard, so what?
Could it be that he could use this to escape, or even turn defeat into victory?
Stop dreaming! At worst, Sui Xiong would do it himself. Anyway, they would die here today, and none of them would be able to escape!
In the sky, the invisible green jellyfish watched the aristocratic bandit army galloping on the ground, revealing a malicious smile.
Inside the carriage, the maid's expression had already turned serious. She frowned and asked, "Should we use the backup plan?"
Earl Hauss pondered for a moment and nodded.
"I've pretty much done everything that needs to be done. Although it wasn't perfect, ending everything now can be considered an acceptable ending. "
The maid was silent for a moment, then smiled.
"That's good too. The sooner we get this over with, the less worry everyone will have."
As she spoke, she leapt up and turned into a ray of light that flew out of the carriage. Her body then began to shine with light, and it looked like she was about to change.
But at this moment, the empty sky suddenly surged, and a cloud of Qi suddenly appeared, wrapping her inside.
Then, the light disappeared, and so did the change. It was as if nothing had happened.
Earl Hauss's expression changed drastically. Without thinking, he separated his hands. His left hand slapped the air toward a wooden box in the carriage, and his right hand slammed heavily on his chest.
The wooden box was made of rare and strange wood, and it was engraved with a variety of magic arrays to isolate the aura inside and outside. However, it was not sturdy. Under Earl Hauss's serious attack, it was smashed to pieces with just one palm. Inside was a twisted and strange statue. Upon closer inspection, it seemed to be a combination of a skeleton and mud, or like countless bones were stuffed into a pile of mud in a messy manner. It emitted a strange and indescribable aura. Ordinary people would feel dizzy just by looking at it, and they would want to scream a few times to vent the suffocation in their chests.
And below the statue, a dark red light suddenly shot out, like an arrow leaving the bow, and hit right between Earl Hauss's eyebrows.
At the same time, a violent and wild will made a deafening roar in Earl Hauss's mind.
[Despicable dragon slayer! I'm going to perish together with you!
Earl Hauss smiled slightly and did not put up any resistance. Instead, he completely scattered his soul, letting the evil dragon's soul, which had been contaminated by the statue of the Devil King of the Abyss, devour his own soul. He only used the last of his strength to grab hold of the statue.
The material of the statue was also special. The moment he grabbed it, it dispersed like flowing water and merged into his body.
His thoughts stopped there. Only the evil dragon, who had inexplicably turned defeat into victory, was still laughing wildly in his spiritual world. But before it could laugh for a while, it was drowned by the aura of chaos that surged over like a tide. It trembled and underwent a drastic change.
The soul of the Holy Spirit and the evil dragon's soul quickly merged and transformed into another form, a form that made people shudder.
Earl Hauss's lips curled up into a trace of a mysterious smile.
This was the backup plan of the backup plan. It was the most urgent response to prevent the worst from happening.
With his character, he hated this kind of situation where he could not personally command and control the situation. But this was the only way to ensure that the important secret would not be leaked, and to give the gods a proper explanation so that the truth behind it could be hidden.
As for the rest, he was really powerless.
At the same time, Sui Xiong and Wenner were frowning as they looked at a white ball of light.
After the woman flew out, she originally wanted to gather power to cast a powerful spell, but she was caught by Sui Xiong, who had turned into a cloud of mist. But before Sui Xiong could subdue her, she shook violently. From her soul to her body, she completely collapsed and turned into this ball of light.
Inside this ball of light was the purest Divine Power of Goodness and Order, and its strength was roughly equivalent to the level of a weak Divine Power. As long as one could obtain this Divine Power, it would be enough for a god who had just been apotheosized to grow a lot in a short period of time and completely stabilize his divinity.
Of course, the premise was that he must not be evil or chaotic.
This harvest was certainly not bad, but there was no way for them to pursue the matter that they originally wanted to know. Neither Sui Xiong nor Wenner had the ability to restore a ball of Divine Power to its previous state.
Among the gods, probably only the Master of Order had this ability …
Sui Xiong frowned. He sealed this ball of light and lowered his head to look at the ground.
The carriage that was galloping suddenly exploded, and a chaotic and wild aura surged out like a tide. A ferocious and ugly huge body jumped out and let out a roar that soared to the sky.
It was also at this moment that Clito and Asner, who were temporarily serving as scouts, rushed over and saw the appearance of this monster …
