Chapter 346 Abyss King Selection Ceremony

Byron stood on the crowded street, relying on his smaller figure to squeeze through the crowd to the front.

Oncoming were groups of earth-moving dragon knights, holding high dark black flags.

The sun shone on their armor, making these knights seem to glow.

Today is the day when General Darkmoon returns victoriously. As usual, this general has won a hearty victory.

same as before.

He walked through the central street of the royal court with his victory trophies and prisoners in a high-profile manner, and was greeted by the cheers of the people.

But Byron seemed to dislike the general very much.

When he saw the figure holding up the matte sword, he hesitated for a moment, and suddenly shouted in the wave of cheers to the man who currently held the highest power in the kingdom.

"General!"

"What's the point of launching this war?"

"There are people dying of hunger outside the city, why don't you solve it?"

The people around looked at Byron in horror and immediately distanced themselves from him.

But the surrounding cheers overwhelmed Byron's voice. General Darkmoon seemed not to hear Byron's words and walked directly through the avenue.

Just from under the helmet, he inadvertently glanced at this daring young man.

The young man mustered up the courage to come here specifically to question General Darkmoon, but he did not expect that he would be like a clown and receive no response.

He was a little depressed, and maybe a little lucky.

In the end, he walked around outside in confusion, and didn't return home until it was almost dark.

Byron's family was a very ordinary family in the city. His father was a carpenter and his mother was a servant of a noble family.

He also has an older brother and a younger sister.

This is a big family, and the whole family lives in an old wooden house. Although life is poor, at least the family is together and is relatively stable.

A most ordinary family, most people in Pance City are like this.

As soon as he opened the door, the five-year-old girl who was sitting under the wooden ladder and grabbing pebbles immediately raised her head, pointed at him and shouted in a childish voice.

"Second brother is back!"

Byron immediately raised his finger: "Shh!"

"Don't shout."

Byron was away from home all day today, and his family would definitely give him a scolding if they knew he was back.

In order to bribe his sister, he took out a few pure white stones with smooth and delicate texture from his pocket and gave them to her. These were much better than the stones that his sister used to play the game of catching stones.

The younger sister was very happy. She was holding a stone in one hand, her eyes seemed to be shining, and she kept nodding with her mouth tightly closed.

The other hand imitated his brother Byron: "Shh!"

Byron asked again: "Has dad come back?"

The sister pointed behind Byron, and when he turned around, he saw his father standing at the door.

Byron's face fell and he was pulled behind by his father.

Byron's father had scars on his face and one ear was missing. This was a disability left in a previous war in the kingdom.

But he was lucky to be able to survive. All of his father's brothers died in that war.

The father didn't put down the chisel in his hand, and pointed at Byron angrily and asked him.

"what happened?"

"I heard that you ran to the street to question General Dark Moon today?"

"Don't you want to live anymore?"

"Why do you like offending others so much?"

Four consecutive questions were enough to reflect Byron's father's anxiety.

Byron did not admit defeat at all: "Because others have done wrong."

My father disliked Byron's stubbornness: "Everyone else is wrong, but you are right?"

Byron was also very stubborn: "What is right is right, and what is wrong is wrong. Is it difficult to tell the difference?"

"Killing is wrong."

"Bullying others is wrong!"

“It’s wrong to lie to people!”

"Do you still need to think about this kind of problem?

"Why do I say that I offend others because they did something wrong, but I can't say anything?"

His voice became louder: "The war launched by General Darkmoon is just killing people and has no meaning."

"They are killing people all day long, killing insurgents and dissidents; they are fighting with other countries and their own people every year."

"These people have never thought about how to govern this country, and they have never thought about thinking about everyone."

"So many people are starving to death outside, and everyone's life is getting more and more difficult. They don't know how to solve the problem, so they just know how to exploit us and start a war."

"Why can't I say it?"

My father was very angry, but he was a bit stupid and didn't know what to say about Byron.

In the end I could only say: "You!"

"Sooner or later, you will suffer a big loss!"

Byron turned his head and said, "That won't change the right and wrong of this world."

His father slapped him on the back: "I'm too lazy to argue with you, just go in!"

"time to eat!"

The family sat on the wooden floor, around a long table. The dusk sunlight had dimmed, making the room even darker.

The food on the table was a mass that looked like mush, exuding an unpleasant smell, with a few strands of rotten vegetable leaves inside.

But this kind of thing is already considered abundant.

With so many people in the family, we can only eat two meals a day, and we can't even get enough to eat.

Generally, the father and eldest brother, who are the main labor force, are fed first, and then it is the turn of others.

Father, mother, brother and sister were sitting together. Although the conditions were not good, they were still warm. Byron sat next to his sister.

Seeing his sister still clutching the few stones he gave her under the table, Byron couldn't help but pinch her face.

"Byron!" his mother called him.

He took the bowl handed over by his mother, who also scolded him.

"Don't run around tomorrow, just help at home."

Byron: "Got it!"

The place where Byron's family is located is in the west area of ​​Pance City.

In the dark night.

At this moment, a large number of unknown and mysterious figures are active in the western part of the city.

The center of their activities was Byron's home.

Several people in black cloaks came to the back door of Byron's house. The eyes under the cloaks looked into the room and saw Byron, who was already sleeping soundly.

The young man had been busy aimlessly all day and was extremely tired.

Like most kids his age, he knows a lot and has heard a lot.

But the only thing I don't know is what I really want.

He didn't even know what he would face next.

One of them asked: "Are you sure?"

Another person replied: "It has been confirmed for a long time, it must be him!"

The mental energy was intertwined and scanned over and over again.

"It doesn't look like anything surprising?"

"It's just that the appearance is outstanding, but what does that mean?"

"He's not tall, he's just ordinary, and he doesn't have any special features. Why was he chosen?"

It was difficult for him to understand, at least from the perspective of powerful people, this person was too ordinary.

Another said, "This is God's will."

That's it for sure.

Yes, this is God's will.

The opponent is the son of wrath chosen by God himself.

They are just believers of God, how can they know how God chooses.

Perhaps God has seen the future and his destined destiny.

One sentence explains everything.

The man nodded.

Then there is no need to think too much, just arrange everything prepared for the pre-selection of the King of the Abyss.

"Are you ready for the King Selection Ceremony?"

"The chief priest will arrive tonight, and he will definitely ask about it then."

The people around me didn't dare to boast: "How can such a huge ceremony be so fast? Even if it is ready, it has to be checked again and again. I dare not say that it is ready."

The screen stretched to the sky.

A large number of mysterious figures have set up a huge ritual magic array in the western district of the city. Hollow crystals are arranged on dense nodes, placed in different places, waiting for people to activate them.

Byron's home is located right in the center of this ritual formation.

The young man was sleeping soundly in the room. The back of his wooden bed was carved with horrific and bloody patterns and runes.

That is the name of the God of Original Sin.

Also, a symbol that represents the wrath of original sin.

Under the moonlight.

He turned over and snored lightly.

In his dream, he beat a liar he had caught before to a pulp.

In his dream, he questioned General Dark Moon righteously and received praise from everyone.

——

The political hall of the Royal Court.

The intelligence personnel under General Dark Moon sent all the information collected to General Dark Moon.

The Abyss Religion's actions were very secretive, and they had already begun their arrangements before General Dark Moon returned.

But once this secretive action is exposed, there is no longer any secret.

General Dark Moon got a portrait and all the background of the person in the portrait. He habitually read the text first and then looked at the person in the portrait.

"Is this child their target?"

General Darkmoon looked at this portrait and felt that it looked familiar.

"There seems to be some impression!"

"Have you seen it somewhere?"

suddenly.

He suddenly remembered.

He had seen this face before on his triumphant return.

A picture emerged from my mind,

General Dark Moon stared at the paper and his eyes moved slightly: "It turns out to be that child!"

The dazzling sunlight shined through the helmet, making his eyes blurry. A child on the road stared at him and shouted at him.

What did he ask himself then?

Oh, I remembered it.

he asked himself.

"General!"

"What's the point of launching this war?"

At that time, what came to my mind was not anger, but doubt and confusion.

Even a child is questioning himself and the meaning of starting a war.

"yes!"

"has no meaning?"

"I have won another war. I have won many wars, but have I really won anything?"

At this moment, General Dark Moon thought of this problem again.

The plan that had been envisioned for a long time came to mind.

His hand holding the paper dropped and he looked down at the floor tiles in the hall.

if.

If there is another war.

He hopes that all problems can be solved with a war.

"A truly meaningful war."

"A war that will solve all problems."

The curly-haired staff member on the side was the one who handed the information to General Dark Moon. When he saw that the general had finished thinking, he asked immediately.

"How about we start preparing to bring all these people..."

General Dark Moon said something that surprised the curly-haired staff: "No, don't worry about them."

The staff member was stunned. He paused for a long time before continuing to ask.

"General!"

"Do nothing?"

General Dark Moon did not answer, but told this confidant about another matter.

"Just this morning, it was confirmed."

"Several lords in the south are preparing to leave the kingdom. They have betrayed their ancestors and beliefs. They want to become kings!"

"The name of a king makes them forget everything."

"but!"

"That is the richest place in the royal court, and it also controls the mouth of the Shepherd's River."

"We absolutely cannot lose it."

When General Dark Moon said this, he couldn't hold back his emotions.

"you say!"

"How many more people do we have to die to save this country."

"How many more battles do we need to fight to stabilize this country, to complete our restructuring, and to create the kingdom we want?"

General Darkmoon talked to himself about the current situation they faced and the various difficulties they faced.

“Are these people going to wait for us to complete the restructuring?”

"Can we still afford the war?"

"Next time, how many people will really be willing to go on an expedition with us?"

"Everyone in the royal court is tired of the war. There are fewer and fewer people supporting us, and our enemies are getting stronger and stronger."

"So many people want to remove us from our position of control of this country, so many people are waiting for us to tear ourselves apart and take a piece of this country's corpse."

Dark Moon looked at the staff, and the look in his eyes made the staff feel a little scary.

"If there was a way, a lot less people would die."

"Would you choose this method?"

The staff was silent.

He instinctively felt that General Dark Moon was planning something terrible.

Moreover, it is probably related to the plan of the Abyss Order this time.

——

The secret room of the prayer hall in Chengxi District.

The old man in a black cloak was hunched over and facing the statue of the God of Original Sin.

"are you ready?"

The fallen priests looked at each other and replied.

"Everything is set up."

"The preparations for the King Selection Ceremony have been completed."

"The budget has been passed and the sacrifices are sufficient."

"The Sons of Wrath are also in place."

The old man nodded: "Then, welcome God's will!"

The high priest, who is as old as a monster, has to use a cane when walking, and he needs to be supported when walking further.

But he went under the idol and prostrated himself on the ground.

Things are different.

Under the altar, balls of black mud gush out.

As a strange ball of black mud poured into his body, it looked scary and disgusting, but his dry and stinking body actually became fuller little by little.

The originally rickety body became tall and straight.

He actually temporarily became younger, and he didn't look like the same person before.

The high priest turned around. At this time, he gave people a completely different feeling. All the fallen priests lowered their heads involuntarily, not daring to meet his eyes.

As soon as he turned around, he turned into a black shadow.

Rushed out of the prayer hall.

The other fallen priests immediately chased after him, each using their magic to follow them to the target location.

The black shadow quickly swept across the street, passed over the tops of houses, and finally appeared on the tallest clock tower in the west part of the city.

And other fallen priests have also arrived at other nodes.

The Acting Archbishop of the Abyss Order stared into the distance, looking at the Abyss Sacrifice Ceremony that could be started at any time, and finally his eyes fell on the center of the ceremony.

He had a maniacal smile on his face and opened his mouth.

"The new King of Original Sin."

"Your throne has been prepared for you."

"Let me push you onto the throne with my own hands."

the other side.

Byron helped with housework at home early in the morning, mopping the floor.

Next, I have to repair the house, pack things, and take care of my sister.

The father and the eldest brother accepted a job and were going out to work. The father left first, but the eldest brother came to Byron's side.

He patted Byron's shoulder who was mopping the floor and said to him.

"Don't run around today, stay at home."

"Take a good look at mother and little sister, you know!"

Byron was a little impatient. Young people hate having others take care of themselves.

"Know it!"

"When you come back, I will definitely finish everything."

The eldest brother shook his head: "You can't run around after you've finished your work. There are always some strange people seen nearby recently."

"I saw a few days ago that the Royal Court's search team was investigating these people, saying they were investigating several missing cases, but there is no result yet."

"I don't know if these people did it, but it's quite disturbing."

Byron nodded and said something.

"What else can those people on the search team do besides extortion?"

The eldest brother also knew Byron's temper and left with his father without saying anything.

But not long after the eldest brother and his father left, the mother suddenly found a toolbox in the corner.

"Your father and eldest brother don't know who they are, and they forgot to bring the box again."

"Byron!"

"Send it to them quickly."

Byron put down the brush and looked at the box.

"It belongs to brother!"

He stood up and wiped his hands, then went down and put the box on his body.

He stood at the door and said hello to his mother and sister.

His mother warned him: "Don't waste time on the road and come back quickly."

Byron: "I know, I'll send it over and come back."

After saying that, Byron opened the door and walked away.

He didn't know how many eyes were on him at this moment.

And when he moved, everything started to move.

The lines of sight that were paying attention to him in the distance collided with each other at this moment.

"what to do?"

"Start early."

"Just at the approximate predetermined location."

There are many people on the street, pedestrians, vendors, and people buying things.

Everyone is busy doing their own thing, and there are many beggars in the corner, begging for food from people passing by.

Byron walked forward slowly, not far from his home where his father worked.

He was still thinking that maybe he would meet his elder brother who came back to pick up the box halfway.

How should I laugh at him then, and pretend to be mature and teach myself a lesson in the morning, but it turns out that he is also a daredevil.

"Teaching me all day long, this time it's my turn to talk about you."

suddenly.

A strong wind blew.

People on the street immediately kept retreating. Everyone didn't know why such a strange wind suddenly blew.

Even the sail beasts were screaming, as if they sensed something bad.

Byron raised his hands to cover his eyes and looked into the distance with his peripheral vision.

He vaguely saw a ray of light rising into the sky and connecting to the sky.

After the wind calmed down, everyone was wondering where such a strange wind came from.

Then someone yelled.

"Look to the sky!"

Everyone on the street raised their heads and looked at the sky.

I saw that the clouds in the sky seemed to be attracted by something, forming a weird vortex.

And, it is spinning at an unusual speed.

In addition, red threads crisscrossed the sky, condensing into a huge ritual formation.

The ritual array is a program used to communicate with other beings, which can be the spirit world, gods, some powerful props, or other beings in the spirit world.

And this ritual formation.

It leads to an abyss.

Byron's head was buzzing and his eyes were wide.

"Character?"

"Why do words glow?"

"Why are there words shining in the sky?"

The streets were silent, and no one said a word for a long time.

Byron's eyes moved along the huge ritual formation, and finally noticed the center of the sea of ​​clouds.

A beam of light penetrates the sea of ​​clouds, connecting everything, and is the core of everything.

Only then did he see it.

The direction of the light beam is obviously the direction of his home.

"what happened?"

"Why does my house glow?"

"What happened?"

Byron is just a commoner's son. He has never seen extraordinary power. He has never seen such a scene.

He was stunned and didn't move for a long time.

But at this time, something terrible happened.

The light beam connected to the sea of ​​clouds, and a door slowly opened in the rotating sea of ​​clouds, a door leading to another world.

Behind the door is the dark side of Wanling.

At this moment it is pouring its filth into the world, leading disaster to the world.

In everyone's horrified eyes, the clouds in the sky turned red.

The whole sky seemed to be on fire.

A small meteorite slowly fell from the door, but the terrifying pressure exuded by the meteorite made the entire city of Pans unable to lift their heads.

Around the meteorite, a large amount of flowing fire fell from the sky.

Falling into the world.

The terrifying flow of fire streaked across the sky, heading in the direction where they were, in the western district of the city.

Everyone was frightened out of their wits by this scene, until someone yelled at the top of his lungs.

"Run!"

The originally noisy but orderly streets were swallowed up by chaos in an instant.

Everyone was like ants who had lost their minds, scurrying around on the earth, accompanied by sounds one after another.

"Oh my God, what the hell was that?"

"Fire, the sky is burning red."

"Hide quickly, find a place to hide."

Byron also reacted from the shock.

Looking at the pillar of light rising into the sky, the streams of light falling towards the earth.

He suddenly rushed up like a madman and rushed towards his own home.

Halfway through, I turned a corner.

He threw the box he was carrying on the ground.

He was anxious and he was accelerating at full speed.

Because he saw his own home, and the beam of light came from his own home.

He saw more.

A stream of fire fell into the sky.

And the target of that flowing fire is his home.

Byron's pupils swelled to the extreme in an instant, and his face turned pale.

He yelled forward as loudly as he could.

Calling his mother and his sister.

"Mother!"

"Saline!"

"Leave quickly!"

"Come out quickly, come out of the house quickly."

He felt it, he seemed to hear the sound. The mother at home should have sensed the situation outside.

Byron looked at the door of his home expectantly.

Finally, someone appeared at the door.

Byron watched as it was pushed aside and a figure emerged from behind.

Byron's face showed a look of ecstasy.

"Mother!"

"Saline!"

The mother held her sister in her arms, pushed open the door, and rushed outside.

But by this time it was already too late. The stream of fire streaked across the sky and had already hit Byron's home.

"Boom!"

The flames spread instantly, swallowing dozens or hundreds of meters around.

Everything was ignited in an instant, and the temperature nearby rose to an unbearable level for ordinary people.

But all this has nothing to do with Byron. He felt as if he was instantly ignited, and the flames burst out of his chest and rushed to the top of his skull.

His scalp exploded.

He saw his home collapse with his own eyes, and his mother and sister were engulfed in flames and disappeared in a sea of ​​red.

The last look of his mother in his eyes was the expression on her face as she raised her head and looked at him rushing towards her.

The last look was one that Byron couldn't understand.

Before the fire.

Byron stopped, holding his head.

"No!"

"don't want!"

Finally, he made a sound that nearly tore his throat.

"No!"

Byron looked at his home that had been reduced to a sea of ​​flames, and his whole body was shaking.

Byron grabbed his hair hard, but could no longer make any movement other than trembling.

Finally, he walked forward.

Get closer to the sea of ​​​​fire, closer to the collapsed and burning house.

suddenly.

There was movement in the sea of ​​fire.

Byron stared blankly, as if expecting something.

But no miracle happened.

What he saw.

It was the most terrifying nightmare he had ever seen in his life.

A body engulfed in flames, a burnt black corpse stood up from the fire.

On the charred skin, lines of flame flowed from the cracks, and extraordinary power spread from the body, telling the world that this was an extraordinary life form.

In its direction, the flame becomes particularly active, and all flames rotate with its realization.

His mother turned into a fire monster, her body possessed by the monster from the abyss.

The famous Heartburner in the abyss is a monster that can seize other people's bodies and control other people's consciousness.

The burned-to-black body was holding the body of another child, staggering in the fire and looking around blankly.

Finally, his eyes were fixed on Byron.

She made a sound.

"ah!"

"It hurts, it hurts!"

"Byron...it hurts so much!"

"The fire is burning...it's burning me..."

"It really hurts."

"Byron...Byron...help me...bye..."

The fire rising into the sky dyed Byron's eyes red.

I don’t know if it’s the reflection of fire or the filling of blood.

"ah!"

He rushed to his home desperately and threw himself into the fire.

And this time.

The meteorites in the sky also fell on the earth.

The powerful impact destroyed buildings on the ground in pieces, smoke and dust rose high, and terrifying flames seemed to ignite the entire western district of the city.

And Byron was thrown away like a rag, completely losing consciousness.
