On the main peak of the Roland Temple, the main hall was still solemn, and the huge fire candles were flickering.
The shadows of the firelight dangled above the walls, and the whole hall was filled with an aura of mystery.
Prometheus, the pope of the Temple of Roland.
Still wearing his silver mask.
He was the only one in the hall at the moment.
Promethean slowly walked up a spiral staircase with an open-air platform on top.
Standing on the platform, you can fully feel the cold breeze on the top of the surrounding mountain.
Looking down, under the steps of the main building of the temple, there are still a number of ascetics prostrate and praying to the main hall of the temple.
Promethean stared for a moment, a smile on his lips.
Ridiculous guys.
The war has begun for a long time, the Holy Knights are fighting bloodily, although they have lost the existence of the Paladin, but the Holy Knights are still much stronger than the armies of those kingdoms in the Roland Continent.
However, the commander of the Roland Kingdom was not a fool, and he actually fought a war of attrition with a huge army and the temple.
Clever way, but the result is still stupid Promethean sneered.
No one knew that he, the pope of the temple, had never thought in his heart that he could win this war joke, how could the great demon god Kara care about the position of a mere human pope The only purpose of starting this war is to destroy the temple and destroy the agent of that guy in heaven on earth It makes no difference at all to who wins and who loses the war.
If the Roland Kingdom wins, the temple will only end up being destroyed, which is undoubtedly the best.
If the temple is defeated, then the kingdom of Roland will be unified into a large religious empire, but the leader will still be himself Hahahaha, what a wonderful situation "Your Majesty, what are you laughing at" A cold voice sounded behind him.
Prometheus turned around and looked at the man behind him calmly, he sighed softly: "Fielding, are you already out?"
Fielding was dressed in a nearly tattered armor, his gaze was a little terrifyingly calm, and it seemed that it was not the breath of a human being, but the cold He bowed slightly and said in a low voice, "Yes, Your Majesty, my cultivation is over.
The man you sent just now told me that you want to see me. ” Although he was bent over, there was not a trace of respect in his voice.
Promethean narrowed his eyes and looked at Fielding, his gaze sweeping from Fielding's face to his hand.
His right hand pressed against the hilt of his sword all the time, and the thick knuckles seemed to be full of power.
"Well, very good, I can see that you must have made great progress in your cultivation this time" Prometheus nodded: "Now the Holy Knights are fighting bloodily, as the only paladin left in the temple, I hope you can go to the front line, are you willing?"
Fielding was silent for a moment, then he raised his head, and there was a mocking smile on his face, and then the paladin said in a little, but very resolute voice: "I'm sorry Your Majesty, I refuse" "Oh" Promethean didn't show any displeasure or anger, he still had a smile on his lips: "Why" The smile on Fielding's face disappeared, and his face was full of solemn expressions: "Prometheus, there is no one else here, we might as well be honest."
From the first day I returned to the temple this time, you must have understood my intentions, you should understand that the reason why I returned to the temple is to kill you, you have known this for a long time, and I also know that you have seen through my heart For me, what surprises me is that you actually have a strength that I can't see through."
Promethean's smile remained unchanged: "Knight Fielding, you are a brave man. ” Fielding lowered his head and said in a low voice: "I understand, although I am a paladin, the strength of the paladin may not be a threat in your eyes.
So you didn't make a move on me and I understood that I couldn't kill you, so I had to choose to continue cultivating.
I used to swear that I wouldn't end up in my cultivation until I wasn't sure I would kill you."
Promethean smiled: "Then now that you are out, you must be sure that you can kill me" "A little, but not too much."
Fielding admitted very dryly, he shook his head and said, "It's a pity that I can't wait any longer, I'm afraid that if I wait any longer, it will be too late." ” He suddenly raised his head, looked directly at Promethean, and said slowly: "Tell me, what is your purpose" Holding the hilt of his sword in his hand, Fielding slowly walked forward step by step: "The temple can't win this war, you know that, and I know it.
Even if all the current strength of the temple is released, it can only bring a catastrophe to the Roland Continent.
In the end, the situation can only be the destruction of the temple, and the vitality of the Roland Kingdom is greatly damaged, as the supreme leader of the temple, what is your purpose?"
"Do you really want to know" Prometheus's voice was a little vicious and evil, he smiled, and then said slowly in a deep voice: "My purpose is to destroy the Cult of God, or destroy the human race, the human race of your Protoss."
"Lord Almighty," Fielding snorted, and with a thud, his sword was half drawn.
Promethean looked at Fielding, with a look of pity in his eyes, and sighed, "Fielding, it seems that you have indeed made some breakthroughs.
I can see that your strength has increased a lot. ” Then he shook his head and said slowly: "But have you thought about it, why didn't I kill you but let you continue to stay in the temple, leaving behind an enemy who has already killed me in my heart."
Fielding was indifferent.
Promethean sneered, "Since you don't understand, why don't you try to stab me" Fielding didn't hesitate, and the long sword came out of its sheath with a golden fighting aura, piercing into Prometheus's chest like a fiery dragon With a snort, the golden fighting qi completely shattered Promethean's entire body, "It's an illusion" Fielding suddenly changed color.
"It's an illusion."
Prometheus's voice floated from afar, as if it fell on Fielding's heart: "Fielding, come in, go to the top of the temple, come to the forbidden door, I will wait for you there" At the foot of the mountain, looking at the towering peaks, Nitis let out a soft breath, the air was so cold that she couldn't help but shrink her neck.
"Breath, the breath of the gods" The demon dragon had a little uneasiness on his face, and there were sparks of hatred and anger in his eyes.
"On the top of the hill above, there is the temple.
It is the servant of the gods who rules the core of this continent.
Niceh sighed and pointed to the top of the hill above, she really couldn't imagine that she, a small blood clan, would one day lead people to the gate of the temple After passing through the long corridor, this is already a forbidden place in the temple.
The stone walls on both sides were carved with strange words and patterns, and the more Fielding walked, the more uneasy his heart grew.
Pushing open the five-meter-high door in front of you, inside is a room that looks like a small square.

In the middle of the room, Promethean sat cross-legged on the floor, with a stone about the thickness of a book in front of him.
"Here you are, Knight Fielding."
Promethean raised his head and smiled, "Don't worry, what you see me now is not an illusion." ” Without saying a word, Fielding slowly approached.
"This is the highest forbidden place of the temple."
Promethean looked around, "Only the highest chief elder can come in here.
And you're the second person to come in in the past decade. ” He pointed to the door next to him and smiled, "That's the forbidden door of the temple."
Unfortunately, I can't tell you what's inside the door, because I haven't been in it either. ” Fielding stood in front of Promethean and said coldly, "Why did you bring me here?"
Promethean's fingers gently caressed the stone tablet in front of him, and his fingers brought a magical light, and lines of words immediately appeared on the stone tablet, but soon, as his fingertips slid over, the magical light faded, and the words disappeared again.
"Fielding, have you ever heard of a story called the Tower of Babel?"
Prometheus smiled, "A long, long time ago, mankind questioned the existence of gods, so all humans worked together to build a high tower, through which they could reach the heavens, and see if the gods existed in the heavens. ” His gentle voice echoed through the room with some kind of magic.
"However, how can lowly humans offend the existence of the gods is that when the humans were just halfway through the construction of the Tower of Babel, the gods became angry, and he destroyed the Tower of Babel, and from then on forbade humans to inquire into the existence of the gods."
But human beings are humble and ignorant.
In order to ensure that humans would not do anything blasphemous again, the gods decided to send someone to discipline these ignorant humans.
Promethean smiled, then sighed: "So, some messengers of the gods sent by the gods came to the world and created a religion that believed in the gods, so as to achieve the goal of controlling mankind.
Teach people to respect God and believe in God.
So, in this world, there is a cult of God."
However, at that time, not all human beings in the world believed in God, and some human beings did not believe in the existence of God.
Thus, war broke out among the human race.
Those human kingdoms that believe in gods unite and destroy the human kingdoms that do not believe in gods, to put it simply, that war is ridiculous, ridiculous, and the so-called noble gods and religions are nothing more than an organization that uses religious forces to eradicate dissidents."
Fielding's grip on the sword loosened a little, and he looked at Promethean in front of him in surprise.
"It's far from over.
In this world, human beings are the most uncontrollable creatures, they are intelligent and greedy, ambitious, imaginative, and when the Cult of God finally made the entire human world believe in God, there was still war within the human race.
The kingdoms of mankind are fighting to the death for the sake of profit.
Even the Divine Cult couldn't stop it, and seeing that he was in trouble with his agents in the human world, the gods came up with a good solution" Speaking of this, Prometheus showed a little deep hatred: "Divert the contradiction" The gods made an oracle of Moses and gave him a staff of Moses, parting the Thundering Strait.
This kind of thing makes the human race finally no longer limit its attention to the competition in the Roland Continent, and their eyes turn to the south, where there is a vast continent, rich resources, and boundless land, so the next thing is still war, but this time, the human race is united, and their common enemy is the Kara tribe who originally lived in the Bright Continent."
"And then again, it's still war.
The Kara also have their gods, but their gods have been defeated in the sky by the gods of the humans, so the Kara people have no backers and are soon destroyed by the humans.
Humanity has seized the Continent of Light.
And later, the gods and religions of the two continents also split ridiculous human beings, ridiculous gods, ridiculous gods and religions, as the human agents of the gods, naturally have the power that makes people blush, and human greed gradually breeds in the power, and the church has become a gathering place for gods, their focus is not to believe in gods, but how to seize power, and finally, the gods and religions of the two continents broke up, hated each other, and were hostile to each other. ” Fielding suddenly spoke, and he said loudly: "What about the gods, since the church has broken up, why didn't the gods intervene?"
"Because the gods are very wise, because the gods have the highest intelligence," Prometheus smiled, "The cult of gods was established to control the human beings in the human world to believe in the gods.
And once the human race is unified, it will be like a thousand years ago, and maybe it will be bold to build another Tower of Babel to spy on the heavens and the territory of God.
Therefore, in order to make human beings obedient, the gods simply don't care, let you fight back and forth between you, it's best to have a good time, and you will never be unitedAs long as the Divine Religion still exists, no matter how the two Divine Religions of the two continents are divided, and in the human world, no matter how the Divine Religions of the two continents hate each other, they themselves believe in the gods, at least nominally. ” Fielding gasped and stared at Promethean, he never imagined that this pope of the temple would say such a rebellious thing "Don't look at me so weirdly."
Promethean smiled: "If you don't believe me, then you might as well take a look at this thing."
He pointed to the stone slab in front of him, the smile on the corner of his mouth was a little weird, and he said slowly in a strange tone: "This is the legendary Shenlu, I guess you have also heard of this name."
