Chapter 617 Destiny chose him
Under a dark gray cloak, an ordinary middle-aged woman stared at the desert church. Her figure was like a sculpture, standing silently.
People were coming and going, but the believers seemed not to see each other, passing by from time to time without anyone stopping.
I don't know how long it took before the other party seemed to have found his soul again, and his eyes began to waver.
After a moment, a bit of surprise appeared on his face.
"The breath of the dwarf god? The dwarf who spied on the river of destiny is not dead yet?"
"Interesting, that guy found the key so quickly. It seems that what he snooped in the river of destiny was more than I expected."
After taking a deep look at the desert church, tightening her cloak, the middle-aged woman turned and left.
The passers-by around her felt the presence of the middle-aged woman at this moment, but she was too ordinary and did not attract any attention.
"The gears of destiny are turning. No one can imagine that this city on the edge of the desert will become the center of the world."
"Key. I don't know what will happen behind the opened door."
"What will happen in the new era?"
"Can we, the corrupt souls, still be qualified to step into it?"
In silence, the middle-aged woman walked into the alley and disappeared among the people.
Shortly after the middle-aged woman disappeared, the surrounding crowd suddenly started making noises.
One by one, they raised their heads and looked feverishly at the sky above the place where the woman had just stopped.
"Your Majesty!!"
"O great God of the desert, your faithful followers pray to you"
"Your Majesty."
The followers of the Desert Sect seemed to be going crazy. They knelt down excitedly and saluted with their most pious gestures.
Looking around, the surrounding wide streets are filled with believers kneeling on the ground, which is quite spectacular.
Richard, who suddenly appeared in mid-air, ignored these believers and looked down at the ground with solemn eyes.
The dwarf statue he was holding tightly in his hand now exuded a faint holy light, which was particularly eye-catching.
"Your Majesty Famu, have you discovered the existence of that person?"
Inside the dwarf statue, on the throne, the sleeping dwarf god has woken up at some point. At this moment, the top boss who survived endless years ago has a look of surprise on his face.
"It's her breath!!"
"Unexpectedly, she even appeared. No need to look for her anymore. If she doesn't want to see the world, no one can find her."
Richard frowned slightly.
"Your Majesty Famu, can you tell me who that existence is?"
He was just handling academic affairs in the desert sect when the dwarf god suddenly woke up and nervously informed him that a big shot appeared outside the church and asked him to come and greet him.
But it came to nothing.
On the throne, the dwarf god, who was wearing a gorgeous bird feather cloak and a hand full of gemstone rings, his face slightly condensed when he heard this, and his deep eyes revealed a meaning that was difficult for outsiders to understand.
"Who is she?"
"She is an existence that wanders in the shadows and darkness of the world. She was an ancient god who was born at the same time as the goddess of light at the beginning of creation."
"She is even older than the ancient gods."
"Moreover, she has never lost her strength in the turmoil."
"The goddess of light has changed for three generations, but she is still her - Shar, the goddess in charge of darkness."
"The eternal and enduring majestic god."
Richard was shocked.
Shar? !
This is not just a cat or a dog, he is a top boss with a name in the creation myth.
It is no exaggeration to say that before the Stars Shine, this kind of boss can easily crush any god below the main god.
Even the main gods of the major gods must bow humbly in front of each other.
Asmodeus, the most powerful ultimate being in the known "Glory Era" - the Lord of Nine Hells, must also maintain enough respect for him.
This kind of character suddenly appeared in Solan City and in front of the Desert Sect, and even stopped for a short time.
What does the other party want to do?
Richard felt a lot of pressure just thinking about it.
Could it be that this big boss has taken a liking to his desert sect?
Sensing Richard's ups and downs, the dwarf god spoke to comfort him.
"There is no need to be nervous, Your Majesty Sha'er has always been kind and amiable to others."
"If the other party wants to harm you, they have the means. Don't question a god who has survived from the beginning of creation to the present."
Richard was speechless when he thought about the legend of the Dark Goddess killing more than a hundred gods in the creation myth.
A goddess in charge of darkness, you tell me to be kind?
"Your Majesty Famu, do you know why Your Majesty Shar is here?"
This topic made the dwarf god subconsciously sit up straight, look into the void, and said with a solemn expression.
"Perhaps, I sensed the breath of the key."
"A new era will be born out of turmoil."
"The key is the key to opening the door to a new era."
Richard frowned slightly.
"This is not the first time I have heard you talk about the key. Isn't the key Lord Divine Grace?"
"Why come to Solan City to search?"
The dwarf god's eyes were somewhat profound.
"The Lord of Divine Grace is the key, so why are you not the Lord of Divine Grace?"
Richard narrowed his eyes slightly.
"You mean I am the key?"
The dwarf god nodded and shook his head.
"No, no one dares to tell whether you are. The key is not an object. It refers to the means to open the door to a new era."
"The only thing that is certain at the moment is that the door to the new era will be opened by Lord Divine Grace."
"As for whether you are the key, sir, it's hard to say."
"Because you are not the only one. You have billions of companions, and being a key is not necessarily a good thing."
Only then did Richard feel a little confident.
The last thing he wanted to see was someone telling him what important responsibilities he had and what he was asked to do. This was really jarring.
"Then why did His Majesty Shar choose Solan City and come to the Desert Church?"
"Because you are Qingqiu, the strongest among the Lords of Divine Grace, the first Lord of Divine Grace to gain authority, and you are also in charge of the El Plane, and have unimaginable influence on the Lord of Divine Grace. ”
"Since the new era will be opened by Lord Divine Grace, then aren't you, the first Lord of Divine Grace, the one with the greatest chance?"
"Not just you, there must also be gods lurking around those Lords of Divine Grace who have gained authority at this moment. Everyone is waiting for that moment to arrive."
Richard was silent, which made him feel a little relieved. Fortunately, there were many sand sculpture players to relieve him of the pressure. Otherwise, being stared at by dozens of gods would be quite stressful.
After regaining consciousness, I began to seriously think about the pros and cons of this matter. At the same time, I also thought about what the so-called new era is?
New authority, new gods, new rules or a new world?
I don’t understand, I can’t figure it out
While the two were talking, the dark goddess Shar, who had transformed into a mortal, quietly came to an inconspicuous tavern in Solan City.
What's surprising is that the passers-by don't seem to have seen this tavern, neither their eyes nor their footsteps pause for a moment.
After silently glancing at the closed wooden door, which was not special at all, Shar slowly pushed it open and stepped in.
The door automatically closed after she entered.
In the dimly lit tavern, there were only five figures sitting like sculptures.
Everywhere you look there is a hazy feeling, and you can't see clearly their appearance or even their race.
Shar looked around with a bit of mockery on his face.
"A bunch of rats hiding in the corner."
Ancient divine words.
When the statue-like figures heard this, they immediately stood up in surprise.
He looked at Shar with a look of awe and horror.
"Lady of the Night?!"
"You, you are here too."
Shar casually walked to the center and sat down, squinting her eyes slightly. The darkness of the tavern made her very comfortable.
"This will be the starting point of a new era, isn't it?"
"Although I haven't seen the prophecy on the Wheel of Fortune, haven't there been others who have?"
The five blurry figures looked at each other, and one of them said with a bit of coldness.
"Rose? That damn spider!"
Shar did not comment, and his eyes showed a bit of depth, becoming more and more mysterious in the darkness.
"If possible, I would also like to see what the new era is like."
“I just don’t know if our decaying souls can survive until that time.”
Several people were silent as they looked at this ancient being who had survived for countless years and possessed unimaginable power.
The surprise in my heart at Shar's sudden arrival turned into worry about the future.
In the changing world, the gods who used to be aloof are now as weak as ants.
Destiny is no longer under their control. All they can do is try to find a way out of destruction and death.
Everything, just to live. (End of chapter)
