Chapter 706 Dusk
This world.
Empire of Dawn.
Originally, the Trisur royal family ended the war, unified the continent, and gained unimaginable fame and love. People looked forward to a calm and peaceful new life.
But the "Pale New Calendar" has just begun. In less than two months, the empire has been hit by various disasters and bad news.
First, a tsunami set off in the north, flooding seventeen cities along the coast and destroying countless ports. The terrifying storm brought violent winds, rain, and deafening lightning and thunder.
The storm spread to the entire northern border at an extremely fast speed, and then spread to the central part of the empire, causing hundreds of cities to suffer. Countless people fell into a long sleep without waking up...
The storm disaster had just passed not long ago.
People in the western region discovered that the yields of crops and various crops in the fields had all decreased, and even strange changes had occurred.
For example, the scarlet stench of corns grown on corn stalks, the soft hairs on the top turned into hair, and the fruits that should have been golden are instead white and misshapen teeth.
The wheat withered and discharged disgusting pus, the melons and fruits were full of blood, the various vegetables were like sallow wrinkled skin, and the veins and fibers were like blood vessels and muscles.
Not to mention eating it, just looking at it from a distance will scare people to death.
Vast tracts of farmland turned into muddy swamps of blood. Even some livestock and wild animals were deformed, with muscles and bones growing wildly, contrary to common sense, and manic and frightening.
As if overnight, the familiar environment quietly turned into a flesh-and-blood purgatory.
People panicked and were forced to move away.
Even though the empire officially sent out shelters and extraordinary people from various churches to investigate and solve the problem, the results were minimal.
Gradually, a theory spread.
The establishment of the Dawn Empire angered the gods!
But soon this theory evolved into the fact that the "King of Blue Clothes" believed in by the Cuisul royal family was originally an evil god. It was this existence that blasphemed the original seven righteous gods, so that the world manifested corresponding disasters.
If this continues, the end of the world will eventually come.
As for the "Church of Dawn", the church that the royal family relies on and trusts the most, it has naturally been defined as a "cult" by many people. Of course, this only targets the main god they believe in, the "King of Blue Clothes".
After all, Jiaoyang is the most admired hero in the hearts of countless people in the empire.
As a result, demonstrations and even various small-scale riots began to appear in various parts of the Dawn Empire. Their appeal was to hope that the royal family would reorganize the Orthodox Church and order the Dawn Church to worship Arno of the Sun as its main god.
But the Trisur royal family will naturally not pay too much attention to these.
Queen Anna and even the senior officials of the empire knew very well that those so-called natural disasters were caused by the old seven gods.
But the king of blue clothes is hunting them...
But one day in mid-February.
The whole world suddenly fell into a scorching dusk.
One second it was still early morning, but the next second it was evening. The half-white sun that people were used to had completely turned into black!
The entire sky was sprinkled with a blood-like glow of the remaining sunlight.
Filled in every corner of the continent.
The deep, dark sun is like a huge, round black hole, hanging so quietly above people's heads, like a hole in the red tablecloth, like a gap in the world.
A scarlet and black straight vertical line extended from the bottom of the sun and dropped to the end of the sky... It was like the sun shed a tear of blood.
The shocking changes caused panic among countless people.
The entire empire, whether it was common people, nobles, wealthy businessmen, or extraordinary people in the mysterious realm, were all horrified by the drastic changes in the sun.
"The end of the world is coming!!"
"Hot! So hot!"
"What's wrong with this world?!"
In the Imperial City, Amber Speight, the streets were chaotic and crowded, and people were rushing back and forth, rushing to their homes with their hands full of food and supplies.
Some people stopped and stared at the sky with desperate expressions.
"Even the sun has abandoned us..."
"This is divine punishment! It is the punishment for the inaction of the Trisur royal family!"
"Damn it! I knew it! The existence that Dawn Church believes in will bring endless suffering to the world. Dear Sun God, please forgive us for our crimes!"
"No... we will be roasted alive! Who will save us?!"
On the street, people prostrate themselves on the ground, praying toward the black sun in the sky.
The atmosphere of fear is spreading, and the helpless people can only pray to the gods.
The temperature right now is extremely abnormal.
Under the dusk, the temperature reached fifty degrees Celsius in various parts of the empire. The heat was so unbearable that many ordinary people fainted.
Even low-sequence extraordinary beings feel extremely uncomfortable in such high temperatures.
The earth was scorched, and the high temperature caused animals and plants to die in droves.
And such high temperatures seem to have no downward trend at all, but are gradually rising... It is foreseeable that if this continues, ordinary people on the surface will be roasted alive.
Deep in the royal city, there is the entrance to the Sun Palace built on the top of the mountain.
The spacious stone platform was hot and the air was distorted. Queen Anna and a group of senior officials stood by the guardrail, looking at the city and the land in the distance with solemn expressions.
Everything as far as the eye can see is the dazzling afterglow of the sun.
Between breaths, I felt a burning pain in my lungs.
"Your Majesty, please drink some water."
Next to Anna, the old steward Babaya held an umbrella for the queen. He didn't bother to wipe the sweat from his head and handed over a delicate water glass.
"Thank you."
After Anna took it, she couldn't bear the thirst and took a big drink of water.
At this time, a high-ranking female priest of the Natural Sect said in a deep voice:
"Such a sudden natural disaster was caused by Lie Father's loss of control, and the present world has been seriously affected... If it is not dealt with in time, ordinary people will not be able to survive it, and they will die one by one. This is a disaster that no church can prevent!"< br>
"Only the gods can help."
Queen Anna took a deep breath and calmed down.
She turned to look at the senior officials of various departments in the empire and whispered:
"Starting today, the empire has entered a state of emergency, strictly controlling water sources, medicines, food and other supplies... Let the military, shelters and various coordination departments maintain order and prevent unrest."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Seven or eight high-ranking officials in the empire bowed their heads and agreed.
Anna looked at the top leaders of Dawn Church again and spoke softly:
"Sister Maggie, Bishop Noah, please report the current situation as soon as possible... I will also lead the royal family members to go to the Dawn Cathedral to pray to the gods and ask for help."
"The duty lies, Your Majesty."
Noah nodded, caressed his chest and bowed.
Anna then turned her gaze back to the city below, her eyes firm.
Not long ago, she went to the Kingdom of Cang King and witnessed the wedding of God in the "Abasye", the residence of the gods in the fairyland. She saw many angels and true gods with her own eyes...
Anna believes that even if the Sun God Father loses control, the gods of Dawn Church will definitely have a way to solve this crisis.

Fairyland Tianyuan, on Abbasye's White Throne.
Chen Lun's face darkened slightly.
In his ears, he could hear prayers from all over the world all the time. There were men and women, old and young. They were extremely dense, pious, sad, painful, pleading...all kinds of emotions, just to pray for salvation. .
There were even curses.
Chen Lun waved his hand and blocked the prayer.
"Jack, Kingsley is out of control..."
Next to the throne, there are three high-backed chairs standing on a seamless white platform, with Mr. Jing Yao, Miss Shengshu and the King of Slaughter sitting on them respectively.
The person who spoke was none other than Mr. Jing Yao, Angela, with a solemn expression.
"Originally it was expected to take another ten years, but the situation was out of control earlier... I speculate that this is most likely the work of Montgomery the bastard."
"I have divined, it is true."
Chen Lun looked calm and nodded gently.
He had just locked the location of the mud man not long ago and was about to set off to implement the hunting plan.
Keli Shen was obviously frightened by the two consecutive death knells, so he took extreme self-rescue measures...that is, forcing his father to take action by any means necessary, thereby applying the straw that broke the camel's back and causing him to lose control in advance.
The purpose of this is self-evident.
"Montgomery is stalling for time."
Conrad leaned on the cold, hard white high-backed chair, looking a little uncomfortable. He changed his sitting position, crossed his legs, and whispered softly while holding the wine glass.
"He knows very well that the Lie Father's loss of control will definitely lead to the destruction of this world. If we don't deal with it in time, then the anchor points of all high-ranking people will collapse."
Chen Lun looked indifferent and spoke softly:
"Well, the mud man calculated this accurately, so he detonated the Lie Father's pollution. He wanted to drag everyone down, because if he didn't do this, the next target of my hunting would definitely be him... Now The fierce father became the biggest danger, and Ni Weng could hide behind him and have more time to breathe.”
He said, with a cold look in his eyes.
"But He still underestimates me."
Ni Weng's move really disrupted Chen Lun's original plan.
For the sake of safety, Chen Lun originally planned to put his father to the end, and wait until he had saved enough firewood for his "Holy Fire Aspect" before facing the strongest true god... But this did not mean that he was now afraid of his father. .
"I suspect that Ni Weng has other intentions. As a calendar god who knows everything about the past and present, he will not be stupid enough to think that my father alone can stop my determination to kill him, so he must have other back-ups."< br>
Chen Lun said lightly.
He looked at Miss Holy Tree and the King of Slaughter.
"Ms. Mia, Mr. Conrad, in order to avoid more accidents, I need you two to hunt down the mud man based on my divination results. Mr. Angela and I will immediately set off to the star realm to fight with Lie. Father fights to the death.”
"Sure, Jack."
Conrad shook his glass and said with a chuckle.
The ice cubes collide with the wall of the cup, making a crisp sound.
Mia Mavis, who was sitting on the high chair next to Him, also nodded in agreement.
"Montgomery is suspicious by nature and has endless tricks. He is extremely good at escaping... I also relied on Clough's divination results to pursue him, but the process was not smooth. He escaped several times, and Clarenco was even tricked. , accidentally injured and lost control.”
Mr. Jing Yao warned.
Chen Lun thought for a while, the Eternal Sleeper was dead, and Oscar, who was originally responsible for guarding the seal, was naturally "liberated". Now he is idle in Tianyuan all day long. If he is not allowed to do something, it seems to be a waste...
So he raised his hand, turned his index finger into a small white snake, and handed it to Conrad.
"Give it to Oscar. With this snake, his personality will be increased, which will be enough to perform divination and positioning on the clay man continuously. In this way, it will be useless for Montgomery to run away."
Conrad took the little snake with great interest and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"I'm really yours, Jack." (End of Chapter)
