The Holy Son's Knight and the Demon King
Chen Liguo woke up to an ear-piercing noise.
He saw a blazing flame before him as soon as he opened his eyes. Upon closer examination, he found that there was a bound man inside the fire. The person within the flame had already been mosaiced——Although there was the mosaic, Chen Liguo felt a sort of scorching pain on his skin as if it was happening to him.
Seeing this scene, Chen Liguo's hair stood on end as he profoundly felt the system's anger. He said, "T-tong-er, you just can't bring me to a gentler scene to adapt?"
The system coldly said, "Don't you like it rough?"
Chen Liguo: "……" He who pretends to be forced must pretend to the end even when kneeling.
Without the slightest degree of concern whether the delicate Chen Liguo would be able able to stand such a stimulating scene, the system coldly said, "Prepare to accept the memory."
Chen Liguo's two eyes were tearful. "Lighter, this one is afraid of pain."
System: "……"
The system did not speak. Chen Liguo closed his eyes and learned about the general situation of this world.
This world had a western background. It had swordsmen, magicians, and other common professions in western fantasy. Moreover, the current role that Chen Liguo was playing in this world was one of the top magicians——The holy son of the Church.
Although the power he held wasn't like that of a Pope in the Church, the holy son was the spiritual leader of the people. It was unknown who was stronger or weaker between him and the pope but everyone knew that the holy son could easily purify a ninth-grade demon that even the high priests were helpless against.
The daughter of fate of this world was a poor sister.
She was an orphan that had been raised by the Church. Because of her amazing talent in magic, she served as one of the sisters within the Church. However, when the demons invaded the continent, she was sent to the frontlines.
On the frontline, she fell in love with a knight who fought with her. Unfortunately, heaven failed to materialize people's wishes and the knight died in the war. The sister grieved, heartbroken, and wanted to die together in the name of love and go. However, just as she had lost all hope, she suddenly discovered a kind of magic that could resurrect people——From that moment on, the continent ushered in the Age of Death.
The Age of Death was also known as the Age of Annihilation. It was a time where the people of the continent were shrouded with darkness for hundreds of years. During this period of time, countless necromancers were born and the sister was precisely the founder of necromancy.
Naturally, the sister's final ending was not beautiful. After she found out that she could not resurrect her lover, she went completely insane. She left behind a rotten legacy and killed herself.
Chen Liguo was frightened by the scenes in his mind and had layer upon layer of goosebumps. After the memories finished, he keenly said, "Tongtong, you did this on purpose right?"
The system was expressionless, "Did what on purpose?"
Chen Liguo said, "You obviously know that I'm afraid of demons."
The system said, "Where are there demons?"
Chen Liguo said, "Aren't undead demons?!"
The system calmly retorted, "Undead are Jiangshi. They're corpses, not demons."
Chen Liguo: "……" Okay, this logic got full marks.
As Chen Liguo quarreled with the system, the fire before him just about died down as well. Oh, it had been forgotten to be mentioned, homosexuality was not permitted in this era. The pitiful man had been burnt alive on a cross because he had been reported when people discovered that he liked those of the same sex.
After knowing what the situation of the scene was, Chen Liguo almost shed his tears and said, feeling wronged, "You just can't find me a gentler world?"
The system said, "The world is random."
Chen Liguo: "……" I believe you, as if.
The system said, "In any case, be a bit more careful. If the world finds that you were with a man today, then tomorrow you will be grilled."
Chen Liguo said, "I don't have a father like you!"
System: "……" I don't have a son like you either!
Chen Liguo and the system had only discussed the matter over the freedom of equal harmony halfway through when the burning at the state had concluded.
The person standing to the side of Chen Liguo whispered, "Daren, are you returning?"
Chen Liguo turned his head and glanced at him. He nodded slightly and stood up.
The servant knelt down beside the carriage and used his body as a footstool for Chen Liguo to step on and enter the carriage.
When Chen Liguo sat in the carriage, he smelt a light fragrance. He half closed his eyes and only opened them again when the carriage stopped.
"Daren." Said someone outside. "We've arrived."
Chen Liguo lifted the carriage curtain and looked at the lofty building before him——The churches within the imperial city of this world were all famous buildings, both tall and majestic. It was very hard to imagine how the people who had just entered the iron age had built it.
Chen Liguo walked in front and a retainer followed him.
Passing through the enormous church, Chen Liguo returned to his residence. His residence was not luxurious but not a single thing that he used wasn't a top-quality good. Even the water that he used to take a bath with was the holy water that ordinary people could hardly get.
The name of Chen Liguo's current body was Michael——It just happened to be the same name of the archangel of the Bible even though there was no Bible in this world.
Chen Liguo said, "Prepare water, I want to bathe."
The servants bowed their heads and said yes, then withdrew.
After these people left, Chen Liguo hurried to find a mirror. Within the daughter of fate's destiny, this Michael had only shown his face a few times and it was all from a distance, which made Chen Liguo unable to clearly see his face. Thus, Chen Liguo did not know what he looked like.
There were already very clear quicksilver mirrors in this era. When Chen Liguo saw his face in the mirror, he felt that he must be a protagonist.
Michael was too beautiful. He had a pair of azure eyes that were like the abyss of the seawater, clear yet the bottom was unsearchable. It could easily drown people. Those long eyelashes were just like his hair, a light gold. When they drooped, a very small shadow could be seen. In addition, he had a straight nose and lips that seemed to have been painted with rouge——But even if his face was exquisite to the very extreme, the cold air around him, however, made people be absolutely unable to mistaken Michael's gender. When he lifted up his chin slightly and cast down a cold and indifferent look, it seemed to make people feel as though they had committed some sort of unforgivable sin.
Chen Liguo salivated a little bit over his own face.
The system let him salivate for a little while before it 'considerately' reminded Chen Liguo, "In this world, the holy son never marries throughout his entire lifetime."
Chen Liguo felt a clap of thunder strike in his head, making him delirious. "What did you say?"
The system said, "Never marries throughout life——In order to keep the body and spirit clean."
Chen Liguo immediately said, "After marrying I can still be very clean ah."
The system very gently and very affectionately informed Chen Liguo, "In the case of the religious precept being violated, the holy son will lose God's love and be unable to use light magic."
Chen Liguo: "……"
System: "Son, jiayou oh. Hee! Hee! Hee!"
Chen Liguo calmed himself for a moment before saying, "So what you're telling me is, I'll die as soon as I have a s*x life?" The holy son losing his light powers, wasn't that tantamount to profaning God? Then he could just go to the next world like that man who had been roasted into mosaics just now.
The system said, "I am a system that attaches great importance to the human rights of the host."
Chen Liguo: "……"
The system said, "But you see, the premise of human rights is that the host needs to be a human."
Chen Liguo: "If I'm not a person what am I……."
The system tenderly responded to Chen Liguo, "You are spicy chicken ah."
Chen Liguo: "……" Explain, why was spicy chicken actually not a forbidden word? Could it be that the system had determined that spicy chicken really was a kind of chicken?
Chen Liguo was battered out of his wits and felt like his life had completely lost its meaning.
He looked in the mirror again and suddenly found something. He pushed aside the blond hair by his ear and said in astonishment, "Why is there a stud earring on my ear?? Isn't this the one that Yi Huai gave me in the last world?"
The system was stunned for a moment as well.
Chen Liguo asked, "What is going on?" That stud earring was very unique, Chen Liguo would never mistaken it.
"Maybe it's a BUG." The system said this a little hesitantly. In fact, there was something a bit wrong with the data from the last world. However, it could not find where it was wrong and the feedback sent from headquarters had said that it was normal.
Chen Liguo pinched the earring and then discovered that it was actually an enchanted item.
The system said, "Hadn't I said that you could take something that didn't affect other worlds from a world? I think that this thing is pretty good……"
As soon as this was mentioned, Chen Liguo remembered a certain something that he had wanted to take away but in the end, the system did not approve of that certain jade item. Tears filled his eyes almost instantly and he said as he choked with sobs, "I don't want ear studs, it's so thin, what could I do with it!"
System: "……"
Chen Liguo said, "Wuwuwu, won't give me the thick one but insists on giving me such a thin one. You simply don't care about me."
System: "……"
Chen Liguo said, "Love me once more Daddy!"
The system couldn't stand this fake crying appearance of Chen Liguo's and said with gnashed teeth, "I will go and check with the general headquarters and see if I can give you some compensation."
Chen Liguo: "Good daddy, good daddy, you are my good daddy."
System: "……" He was the first host to call it daddy and it hoped that he would be the last.
Just as the system and Chen Liguo were with deep affection, the servants respectfully knocked on the door and told Chen Liguo that the hot water was ready.
Chen Liguo went directly to the bathing room.
On his way, he found that all the people outside would bow their heads to show respect when they saw him. Even if they weren't servants, but bishops, they still didn't dare raise their heads and look at him.
Chen Liguo felt the system's ill will. Shen Yucheng from the last world spent decades raising a Yi Huai. Chen Liguo felt that in this world, he would use up all his life and probably only be able to spend his life with God.
Chen Liguo bathed on one side and cried on the other. He felt that he had been abandoned by the world.
Several maids had already prepared clean clothes for Chen Liguo and Chen Liguo put them on after bathing. After he dressed, a servant who waited upon him said, "Daren, the pope is waiting for you in the main hall."
Chen Liguo nodded slightly.
The servant continued, "The knights had arrived a moment ago."
When Chen Liguo heard the world knight, he finally felt that his life had a bit of prospects. He said, "Okay."
Then he went to the main hall.
At this time, the demons had not invaded but serious blights were breaking out everywhere. Due to that, the holy son was was to go investigate the source of the blight all over the country.
The Michael of the original world had gone as well and had perfectly solved this matter which made the Church's reputation amongst the people rise. He himself had also won even more people's love and respect.
Chen Liguo walked into the main hall where several cardinals and knights in heavy armor were already sitting.
If it were said that the bishops of the Church were the most outstanding light mages then the royal knights of the imperial city were the most outstanding warriors.
They were brave and good at fighting. They were the best shield that protected mages.
Chen Liguo slowly walked to his seat and sat down.
"Michael." The pope who was nearing his late seventies, opened his mouth and said, "You must take care of yourself during this trip. The knights will assist you. If you find something strange, you must send me a letter and discuss it with me."
The Holy Son Micheal had been raised by the pope. Even the name Michael had been chosen by the pope. Thus, the relationship between the two were like father and son and was very intimate.
If it weren't for the blight reaching a stage where it might destroy the country, he would not have sent Michael to such dangerous places to solve this matter.
Chen Liguo nodded and said yes.
"This is the head of the knights." The pope introduced the two people to each other. He said, "Uriel."
Chen Liguo nodded towards the head of the knights.
Uriel laughed, "Rest assured Pope Daren, I will definitely protect Holy Son Daren well." He had a head of short flax colored hair and looked very handsome. There were also small dimples on his face which made it impossible to relate him to a brave knight but the heavy armor on his body made it clear that he was in no way as harmless as he looked.
He looked at Chen Liguo with a lucid smile and said, "Holy Son Daren, please take care of me."
Chen Liguo said, "Please take care of me." Although he said this, his gem-like azure eyes were indifferent.
Uriel saw this and thought that this Holy Son was like what was said, arrogant and cold.
The pope said, "Have a good rest in the church today. I have prepared good wine and dishes to see everybody off."
Uriel smiled and expressed his thanks. Chen Liguo was still expressionless.
At the dinner party, Uriel took the wine to salute to Chen Liguo but Chen Liguo said, "Sorry, I cannot drink wine."
Uriel scratched his head and looked at this very unreasonable Holy Son, saying, "Sorry, I thought that Holy Son Daren just abstained from beauties……"
Chen Liguo had no expression on his face but he still gave Uriel face. He lifted up the water in his hand and said, "Use water in place of wine."
Uriel laughed again and said, "Thank you Holy Son Daren for the favor." He lifted up the drink in his hand and drained the cup in one gulp.
The next day, the group set out.
Because the distance was a little long, afraid of tarrying the time, Chen Liguo chose to ride on a horse with the knights instead of in a carriage. He changed his white clothes for sturdier clothing and his long golden hair that reached his waist was tied up. He looked valiant and formidable. If it wasn't for the fact that there was not a single callous on his hand, perhaps others would think that he was also one of the Knights.
Uriel had constantly worried earlier if the holy son's body would to too weak. However, when he saw Chen Liguo like this the worry in his heart was completely set at ease.
It had to be said, being able to see the different sceneries in the different worlds was probably the best enjoyment for transmigrators.
Upon seeing the various kinds of beautiful sceneries after leaving the city walls, Chen Liguo, who was still immersed in his sadness of either having s*x or dying, finally relaxed his heavy mood a little.
He fell deeply in love in nature and said earnestly to the system, "I feel like I was superficial before. There are still so many beautiful sceneries in life, why should I rigidly stick to the pleasure of the flesh?"
System: "……"
Chen Liguo said, "Why lay at home all the time? If you go out and walk a bit more, and look around a bit more, you will find……"
System: "……"
Chen Liguo said, "Staying at home and laying down still feels better, ai……"
The system's expression was indifferent as it thought to itself, 'I should have since long guessed what thing Chen Liguo is.'
There were no demons and dead spirits in the continent at this time so there was very little danger aside from some large monsters and beasts. In fact, with Chen Liguo's strength, even without this dozen of knights, he could safely reach the site of the plight.
Merely, the pope did not feel reassured and stubbornly found some external assistance for Chen Liguo.
After a dozen day's journey, just when Chen Liguo thought that they would reach their destination safely, there was a small accident.
On that day, everyone was hurrying through the forest when they suddenly heard the sound of rustling.
Uriel was a bit more experienced and in the first moments of it happening, he pointed out that there was a demon. However, his expression was a little strange. He said, "Holy Son Daren, you stay here and wait for us, we will deal with it."
Chen Liguo found it a little baffling and said, "I will go with you."
Uriel's expression was a little tangled. He said, "This……"
Chen Liguo asked, "What's wrong?" He found that after he said this, the expressions of the people around his were somewhat distorted and one of them blushed.
Uriel had no way to explain to Chen Liguo and could only helplessly say, "Okay, but…… This demon, is a little particular."
At this time Chen Liguo did not understand why Uriel and the knights around him would react like this. It wasn't until he followed Uriel and saw the demon's appearance that he finally understood the reason.
It was because this demon…… truly was…… too yellow.
A man was suspended mid-air by numerous vines. His eyes were open but he seemed to have already lost his awareness. Ambiguous liquid sounds and the occasional moan made both Chen Liguo and the system breathe a breath of cold air.
Chen Liguo: "How nostalgic!"
System: "……" Is there something wrong with this demon!
Uriel watched as his family's Holy Son Daren's ears turn red and his beautiful brows wrinkle afterwards. He wanted to laugh a little but endured it. He could only pretend to be honorable and urged his subordinates who were also secretly watching the holy son, "Still not going to save people?"
"Yes yes yes." Hearing their family's boss urge them, the others were too embarrassed to keep watching and hurriedly drew out their swords and chopped the vines into pieces.
That pitiful man who had been caught by the vines directly fell onto the ground. His face was red all over as he curled up. A frightening mucus covered him from head to toe.
Chen Liguo raised a brow and said, "Find him something to wear."
Uriel said, "Right now…… isn't time yet, wait a bit."
Chen Liguo said, "Why?" His eyes were filled with aversion towards the vines and a trace of indistinct embarrassment.
Uriel gave a few hollow laughs, "He still has the seed of the demon inside him."
Chen Liguo: "……"
And the Chen Liguo watched with a clouded mind as that man squeezed out the seed. Then Uriel draped a piece of clothing over that pitiful brother.
Chen Liguo said with difficulty, "It's like my body has been hollowed out." Although he had said this line many times, this time, there was a bit of a kind of sympathy in his voice.
It was all a sheet of mosaics before the system but it also felt like it's memory card had been hollowed out.
Chen Liguo said to the system, "This is the world you chose. look, tsk tsk tsk, simply not in accordance with the Eight Honors and Eight Shames of socialism.
System: "……"
Chen Liguo said, "Ai, I feel distressed for you."
The system and Chen Liguo both felt like their spirits had freed themselves from their bodies and felt like all that remained in the world was darkness.
The man who had been caught by the demon was a handsome young man. After he recovered his senses, he was shamed to death and stammeringly described his experience.
He said that he was a pharmacist in a small village and because someone in the village had fallen ill, he went into the forest to find herbs to cure the villager.
However, he did not expect that he would actually come across think kind of low-grade demonic beast. Before he could react, he was poisoned.
He stammeringly and inarticulately narrated these things. His entire face turned crimson and it was visible that he was very embarrassed.
These knights had seen various aspects of the world. They patted this younger brother's shoulder to comfort him saying that they were all men and in fact, it was nothing, if it felt good then it was fine.
Chen Liguo once again felt that this group of knights was bold and unconstrained.
Uriel seemed to see Chen Liguo's embarrassment and comforted him by saying, "When we're out on duty we frequently come across all sorts of demonic beasts and this kind of low-grade demonic beast, we have come across it many times now so we don't find it strange."
That sentence echoed in Chen Liguo's mind: have come across it many times now, across it many times now, many times now, times now.
Uriel saw Chen Liguo knit his brows tightly and a bit of a smile appeared in his eyes. He said, "This is Holy Son Daren's first time coming so far out, right?"
Chen Liguo said, "En." Michael had grown up in the imperial city and hardly ever went out of the gate of the imperial city.
Uriel laughed, "Then there are still many sceneries waiting for Holy Son Daren to see."
Chen Liguo heard Uriel's words and his mood that had been downcast every since he came to this world suddenly perked up. He finally understood, he not only could have s*x friends, but also demonic beasts.
Life was brimming with hope. So long as you wished, mosaic can eternally accompany you.
Chen Liguo: "System, I have become aware of your good intention, thank you."
System: "???" What door to a new world has this bastard opened up again?
That poor pharmacist was called Nelson. Although Uriel and the others all comforted him that it was nothing, he obviously did not think that it was nothing.
Because that demonic beast's fluid seemed to have some sort of toxicity, Nelson was in a terrible state for several days——Chen Liguo could even see liquid flow from his pant leg.
Finally, it was Uriel who couldn't continue watching and found Chen Liguo as he euphemistically said, "Holy Son Daren, can you use purification to help Nelson remove that demonic beast's poison?"
Chen Liguo asked, "It can be removed?"
Uriel said, "Of course it could."
Chen Liguo nodded and walked over to the dispirited Nelson.
Nelson had been miserably tormented these days, especially at night. Seeing Chen Liguo coming over, he stood up with difficulty and said, "Daren."
Chen Liguo did not talk to him but reached out a finger and lightly pointed it at his forehead.
A beautiful light poured out from Chen Liguo's finger and Nelson felt his body relax as a certain place that had constantly been disturbing Nelson for the past few days finally returned to normal.
"Daren, thank you!" Unable to control the joy of his heart, Nelson grabbed Chen Liguo's hand.
Chen Liguo's brows furrowed slightly.
Only then did Nelson react and realize that his action wasn't appropriate. He gave a few hollow laughs and said, "S-sorry, I was too excited." He released his hold and lowered his head.
"It's all right." Chen Liguo said. "Do you feel better?"
Nelson nodded and said, "Much better!"
Chen Liguo let out a sigh in his heart and left.
Uriel saw this and laughed to Nelson after Chen Liguo walked away, "Although the holy son seems very cold, he is a good person, there's no need to be afraid."
Nelson laughed bitterly in his heart as he thought inwardly, 'Where am I afraid of him? I am worried if I will defile him……'
Another few days after they saved Nelson, the group of people arrived at the village.
The village was in complete disorder because of the blight and Chen Liguo could even see a few dead bodies that hadn't been buried on the roadside.
Nelson saw this wretched sight and his tears fell immediately. He staggered forward then broke into a run, shouting, "Holy Son Daren has arrived. Holy Son Daren has arrived. Is anyone still here? Is anyone still here?"
The village was silent. A long time later, a few wan and sallow people walked out. When they saw Nelson, they said, "You've finally returned, your little sister, is almost unable to hold on……"
Nelson's tears fell even harder when he heard this. He turned and ran to Chen Liguo, kneeling down before him as he begged, "Holy Son Daren, save us! Holy Son Daren!"
Chen Liguo nodded and took out his staff.
After a brief incantation, a golden light sprung forth above the staff and fell all over the village like rain.
It could be distinctly felt that the air became fresh and clean after the light specks fell.
Nelson entered his home and saw his dying sister's face recover its rosy complexion. Upon seeing him enter the room, his sister even called out a 'brother'.
Nelson's tears fell and said, "Thank God above, thank Holy Son."
Uriel did not relax when he saw this scene. The blight was already so serious in such a small village. It was hard to imagine what miserable conditions the larger towns near here were in.
Uriel said, "Holy Son Daren, I'm afraid that we cannot stay here to rest."
Chen Liguo nodded, "Let us depart immediately." By arriving a day earlier, they may be able to save several tens of more people.
Uriel said, "Let's go and rush to Rock City."
Nelson saw that they were leaving and said, "Bless you all. Holy Son Daren, may you be safe through the journey."
Chen Liguo nodded to him slightly and saw Nelson's eyes shine like the stars in the sky. Nelson said, "Holy Son Daren, you are the emissary sent by God to save us——" After he said this, he knelt down and heavily kowtowed a few times.
Uriel said, "Let us go, Daren."
Chen Liguo did not continue to delay and whipping the but of his horse, dashed off with Uriel and the Knights.
Rock City was very close to here. After rushing through several nights, they arrived there in three days.
In these three days, they hardly had any rest. Chen Liguo wanted to use a healing technique to help them recover a little strength but was rejected by Uriel. Uriel said, "We are used to rushing. Daren, you just need to make sure that you are in good condition."
Chen Liguo showed a look of disapproval.
Uriel said, "Holy Son Daren, there are still many people in the city who need your divine power, do not waste your precious divine power on us."
Chen Liguo heard him say so and had no choice but to give up.
It had to be said that the strength of Uriel and the knights was amazing.
After a few days of rushing, in addition to the previous few days, this group of people almost hadn't had a good rest for a week. However, they were still full spirited and no trace of fatigue could be seen on them.
When the guards of the city saw Chen Liguo's party, their faces were overwhelmed with ecstasy. They and practically used the quickest speed to open the gate for the knights and then rushed over wildly to greet them.
Chen Liguo felt a pitch-black air of sickness as soon as he entered the city.
He was a light mage so he was sensitive to these sorts of negative things. He asked, "How is the situation?"
The city soldier shook his head and said, "The ordinary people of the city have all……"
Chen Liguo inquired, "How many people are in your city?"
The soldier said, "The population of the residents is roughly 450,000 but the transient population is very large.
Chen Liguo nodded, took out his staff, and said, "Bring all the sick people to the plaza."
The soldier responded with a sound and passed on this order without delay. At this time, the city lord finally arrived, a little late——He was carried over by someone, his complexion a waxy yellow and he coughed constantly. He said when he saw Chen Liguo, "Daren, you are here at last. Daren……"
Chen Liguo did not use his finger to touch him this time. Instead, he used purification from a distance. Doing this resulted in a lesser effect but it was enough to cure the disease.
As expected, after Chen Liguo used purification, the city lord's complexion rapidly improved. He even felt like his body had changed instantly and was brimming with strength and vitality.
"Holy Son Daren! Save your subjects!" As soon the city lord's disease was better he jumped off his stretcher, wanting to hold Chen Liguo's thigh but Uriel promptly stopped him.
The city lord did not mind either——He directly changed the target of his thigh hugging and held Uriel saying, "Knights Daren, if you came a bit later you would have only seen a ghost town!"
Uriel's scalp felt numb at his action. He said, "Hurry and tell them to assemble the sick people to the plaza."
The city lord nodded and only then did he reluctantly let go. He said, "Good, good, I'll go."
He took three steps back and reluctantly left.
Uriel saw that there was a bit of displeasure in Chen Liguo's eyes and he consoled him by saying, "Daren, you need to get used to it. These people all regard you as a savior."
Chen Liguo restrained his expression and restored his usual indifference. He said, "En, let us go to the plaza."
The distance from the city gate to the plaza was not long but the tragic state of the city could be seen from it.
Chen Liguo waited in the plaza for several hours and then saw the entire plaza be filled to the brim with gravely sick patients. Some of them could still moan while others were already at the gate of death.
With so many blights, if Chen Liguo used the incantation to cure it then he feared that he would need to use a lot of magic power. Chen Liguo thought for a moment and simply used the holy water and talismans to draw an array in the middle of the plaza. Then, he used poured his divine light power into it.
The divine power was poured into it and the array emitted a soft white light. This white gradually spread out and enveloped the entire city.
Little by little the blight was driven out of the people's bodies by the divine light and then finally disappeared inside a halo.
Chen Liguo closed his eyes and a little bit of sweat appeared on the tip of his nose.
Although there were tens of thousands of people in the plaza at this moment, not one of them said a word.
Chen Liguo, in his newly changed gown, stood in the center of the plaza. His long golden hair fluttered in the air slowly in the wake of the revolving array as a pure and holy halo spread out in front of him. In that very moment, he was like a celestial god that had descended down, using his own power to save tens of thousands of lives.
After everything was finished, Chen Liguo closed the array.
There was a bit of sweat on his face and his complexion was paler than before. However, his back perfectly straight and erect like before.
From within people who had been cured from the blight, some began to take lead and chant 'Holy Son'. There was a bit of a smile in Chen Liguo's eyes but he did not speak.
Uriel saw that the crowd was in high spirits and told them to go back and have a good rest and remember to cremate the bodies of the deceased so as to not cause a new epidemic.
Uriel could see that Chen Liguo was a little tired. After the treatment was over, he took him to a hotel and prepared hot water for him to have a good rest.
Chen Liguo did not refuse and complied with Uriel's kind intentions. After taking a hot bath he quietly went to sleep.
The next day, before they could celebrate, they had to go onto the next city-state.
Rock City's city lord was still urging them to stay, saying that the populace had prepared a banquet for Chen Liguo and asked that they stayed in the city to rest for a night before leaving.
However, Chen Liguo declined their kind intentions and said, "There are still many people waiting for me."
With the conversation reaching this point the city lord could not continue to ask them to stay but the people of Rock City profoundly felt the holy son's power. They felt that the holy son was the best gift bestowed to them by God.
Chen Liguo aloofly mounted his horse and with his face facing the admiration, respect, and such string of gazes from the populace, slowly left the city walls.
Uriel said, "Holy Son Daren, which direction do you want to go next?" There were cities nearby but choosing the direction was nevertheless a problem.
Chen Liguo looked at the sky and said, "Go southwest." The blight was the strongest there and finding the source of the blight was the ultimate goal of their trip.
Uriel nodded and said good. And so the group of people rushed towards the southwest.
The Author Has Something To Say:
Hahahahahaha. System: I had never expected that in my mind, there would be a yellow scenario. The holy son is the entire world's gift and what not cough cough cough.
Continuing to beg for irrigation fluid ahahahah do not stop.
Thanking you darlings for the mines, grenades, and rockets. Especially dear CAS's deep-water torpeda. Muah =3=
