Chapter 223 Saint Ander
......
The treasure hunting competition ended successfully. Everyone picked up a lot of resources during the competition, so they almost entered a state of retreat just after leaving the competition.
It’s just that the situation of this treasure hunt competition is different from the past. The competition of strength is not very important, what is important is luck.
In the high-level range, facing that kind of large-scale "dragon tide", there is no point in fighting for strength. Only by being lucky and hiding in a safe place can you survive, otherwise you can only Activate the space scroll to leave.
Faced with the exaggerated scenes at that time, there was no iron-headed boy.
……
At the same time, the general election in the Parthenon is also proceeding steadily.
Nanting Feiting, the residence of Saint Ande.
Lu Cheng, who had just finished the treasure hunt competition, was called over by Ye Chang.
Lu Cheng's trust was misplaced after all. Ye Chang could not convince Ander. If he could not win the election and become a goddess, then Ander would rather jump off the mountain and let his life end at a decent time.
The election of the Parthenon Goddess has always been bloody. Ender will never believe that there is any point where it ends, either win or die. This is something she has known since she started to contact the Goddess affairs.
"So, you would rather die here?" Lu Cheng asked.
Ander looked at Lu Cheng who suddenly appeared with a calm expression, "Essendel has not been arrested yet, nothing is known yet."
"No, he is here." Lu Cheng With a snap of his fingers, the crow, which had been standing quietly on the high stone platform from the beginning, emitted black mist and transformed back into Essendel.
"You..." Ender was stunned.
"Esendel? How could you..."
Isn't the Holy Inquisition hunting for Essendel all over the world?
"Ender, give up, you have no hope from the beginning." Essendel sighed.
“The support you received from Irisya in Parthenon is fake.”
It was also during this period that he learned that since the incident with Wentai, Yi Zhisha had been trying to find ways to eliminate the stain of being bribed.
More than half of the people involved in that incident have been killed or injured over the years, and this was not only Ye Chang's handiwork, but also the secret promotion of Yizhisha.
“…”
“Fake?”
As Essendel and Ye Chang revealed some secrets about the election, Ender’s expression changed from surprise to , doubt, confusion, and finally returned to calm again.
Yes, she should know.
Who is her teacher Yi Zhisha, how could she be willing to give up...
"You are calmer than I thought." Ye Chang said.
“Should I say that I am worthy of being trained by Yisha?”
Everything from childhood to adulthood is a lie, including Mei Ruolan who is standing next to her, and Ander is just Yisha. Just a victim of the Zhiyao plan.
Including another saint, Panijia, who is also a member of Ilyssa.
This seemingly fierce election of the Goddess is actually just a stage play controlled by Yishiya.
"So, what is your choice now?" Lu Cheng asked.
"Should we end it here, or follow my request."
"Your request? As your chess piece, will you eliminate it after this election?" In Ender's eyes The light is no longer there.
Every election of a goddess is bloody, and the loser will be doomed. Instead of waiting to become a prisoner, being stigmatized, and having no peace after death, it is better...
In the Lost World, Ender had already reached the edge of the flying pavilion and was just one step away from falling off the mountain.
“Aren’t you going to stop her?” Ye Chang asked.
"I always respect other people's choices, unless they have grudges against me." Lu Cheng shrugged.
“And she has no interaction with me.”
"It's just that I didn't expect a person who could stand in the position of a candidate to be so cowardly."
Cowardice?
Ander came to his senses and turned around, "Why do you say that?"
"After knowing the truth, his first reaction was not to resist, but to choose suicide to escape. This is not cowardice. What?" Lu Cheng said.
“You don’t think it takes much determination to die, do you?”
"Death is not terrible. On the contrary, it can be said to be the simplest thing in the world, and everyone can do it." "Living is the most difficult."
" I don’t know how the first Athena, who founded Parthenon, would feel if her descendants have become so virtuous.”
“Isn’t she proud of you?”
Clean? Glorious and sacred?
There are so many perfect things. The brighter the light, the deeper the darkness.
“But what if I continue to live?” Ander said with a bitter smile.
Those people who support her on the surface are all minions of Ilithia, even Paneja. Today's Parthenon is still under the control of Ilithia.
Alive?
If she continues to live, she will only become the dirty scapegoat of Ilyssa.
Including the people in front of me, would they be so kind?
"I really don't mean that well." Lu Cheng said.
"But a certain little girl is still so naive. She feels that since fighting and death can be avoided, she should naturally try her best to avoid it."
Ander was stunned, "Ye Xinxia?"< br>
The little girl who appeared suddenly is indeed naive. She may know some rules of struggle, but she has no experience in struggle.
"Today's Parthenon is indeed a little disgusting, and the light of the Holy City is no longer pure. The world needs to change, instead of continuing to rot like this." Lu Cheng said.
Man's greatest enemy is never a demon, but himself.
Some so-called "wisdom" does not need to exist. Those so-called worldly sophistication consumes a lot of manpower and material resources.
To put it bluntly, the sense of urgency is still not enough.
“But those things about Essendel have been exposed.” Ender said.
"According to what you said, Melola and the others are pawns used by Ilyssa to control me. If I continue to live, they will still force me to die."
She originally thought that as long as Essendel Without being caught, those charges wouldn't have been proven, but that wasn't the case, and there was no way she could survive from the start.
Merola and the others have more detailed evidence of the crime.
"Evidence of guilt?" Lu Cheng couldn't help laughing.
"What evidence of guilt? Oh, no, what is guilt?"
"Do you feel guilty? Or does Yizhi feel guilty?"
"Or, does the Holy Inquisition feel guilty? Or the people below?"
"Of course it is the Holy Inquisition." An De said.
"Why?" Lu Cheng asked.
Ander was stunned, "Because..."
"Can't tell? Then for me, because the Holy Inquisition Tribunal controls the most powerful mage group in mankind, they decide what is right and what is wrong." Lu Cheng said.
"If the Holy Inquisition Tribunal is not strong enough, will you still be afraid?"
"Will everyone take the judgment of the Holy Inquisition Tribunal seriously?"
An De looked puzzled, "What do you want to say?"
Resist the judgment of the Holy Inquisition Tribunal?
What a joke, even the Holy Son Wentai was dead.
Behind the Holy Inquisition is the Holy City, which is the most powerful violent institution in mankind. Only by becoming a goddess and controlling the real armed force of Parthenon can one be qualified to negotiate with the Holy City.
So after Essendel was found guilty, she just weakened her momentum. As long as she survives this period, as long as she becomes a goddess and controls the armed forces of Parthenon, the Holy Inquisition Tribunal will no longer Keep making things worse.
Wen Tai lost back then because Yizhisha didn't help him, and even went so far as to kill relatives out of justice.
Otherwise, Wen Tai would not die.
"What I want to say is very simple. You don't need to worry about these issues." Lu Cheng said.
“Don’t say that the Holy Inquisition Tribunal only found evidence of Essendel’s guilt, even if they got evidence of your guilt.”
“I said you are guilty, you are guilty, I said If you are not guilty, you are not guilty!”
“…”
