Chapter 386
The sacrifice could not hold back Lingwu.
He could only watch as the ripples stirred up by Lingwu crashed against the edge of the spring again and again.
Finally, it turned into eternal peace.
Ling Wu woke up.
She calculated the time, blessed the people of the eleventh city that Karl had conquered, and then entered the dream of "Sacrifice" again.
This time, her appearance did not meet those golden eyes.
In the vast realm of the gods, there was no "sacrifice," so Lingwu sat quietly by the spring and waited.
Until the return of the increasingly indifferent "sacrifice".
His first words were: "Cynthia, I have always remembered your name."
Cynthia felt honored.
Upon hearing Ling Wu's words, "Si" lowered his eyes, deep in thought, "Have we met before?"
This is a sentence that Cynthia said when she was three years old, which is why He pondered its familiarity.
Therefore, Lingwu answered truthfully: "We met in the future."
"I felt the turmoil that arises when a paradox occurs." "Sacrifice" asked, puzzled, "If we met in the future, why would we meet in the past?"
"Because your future self forgot Cynthia's existence." Ling Wu took out the Holy Cross and handed it to Him.
"What's this?"
"This is your punishment if you still forget me in the future," Ling Wu said with a smile.
To dethrone the "sacrifice" from its divine throne, a more drastic measure is needed.
When He awoke, He couldn't tell if He had lost a memory or if He had forgotten Cynthia's existence.
The anxiety and fear of loss in dreams will lead to the "sacrifice" in dreams being kept in a cage called Cynthia.
The inability to distinguish between the real and dream-like "worship" upon waking can cause the real "worship" to overlap with the "worship" in the dream, resulting in the same anxiety and uncertainty.
In the end, she was still kept in a cage called Cynthia.
The extra Holy Cross is the key.
"Will I forget you in the future?" asked "Si".
Ling Wu lowered her eyes and did not answer. Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and then a very faint smile appeared on her face.
She didn't speak again, her fingertips creating ripples in the spring water.
Once again, it disappeared due to the obstruction of "sacrifice".
"Si" looked at the divine realm where all things existed, but could not find even a trace of Cynthia.
He kept pondering these words, waiting for Cynthia to reappear.
Ascaria.
Ling Wu lowered her head and looked at the Holy Cross in her hand, preparing to make a one-to-one replica.
After success, it will accidentally fall in front of "Sacrifice" after "Sacrifice" awakens.
The "sacrifice," unable to distinguish between dreams, is forced to choose the wrong answer.
That is—
Cynthia did exist in His past, but He forgot about her.
However, she is not yet able to replicate the Holy Cross of the God of Light.
Unless her followers become more devout and nothing can shake their faith in her from now on.
Lingwu felt that the time had come.
The city of Saint Louis was a gift given to her by a little raven who held a position equal to that of the God of Light.
No one but her can open this gift.
This is the city of St. Louis at this moment.
Carl led a group of people, all looking worried.
They have been besieging the royal city of Saint-Louis for six months, but no one has been able to enter the city.
There are new people who have been expelled into the Western Continent, and they cannot trust the former Saintess Cynthia who has become the Moon Goddess of the Western Continent.
They believed it was all a conspiracy by the God of Light.
Therefore, when the city of Saint Louis could not be conquered and the Moon Goddess did not appear, rumors of betrayal against the Moon Goddess spread throughout the western continent.
"This is all a conspiracy between the temple and the God of Light. Cynthia is just a pawn; she has no divine power at all!"
"The City of Saint Louis must be a force that restrains the God of Light, which is why He so desperately wants us to break down the city gates of Saint Louis so that He can reclaim the Western Continent!"
"The day St. Louis falls will be the day we, the exiled, are banished into the sea! At that time, everyone will be swallowed by the sea!"
Carl coldly watched this group of rebels, standing on the opposite side of him.
He suppressed his anger and calmly and coldly pronounced his verdict: "You have offended the masters of the Western Continent."
The newcomer opposite was somewhat intimidated, but remembering Ling Wu's status, she retorted sarcastically with righteous indignation:
"Then pray for her arrival, and see if she has the ability to break down the gates of St. Louis City herself!"
"Every time, she only appears to reap the benefits after you and everyone else have conquered the territory!"
"There's one more thing, Karl, you probably don't know this yet, do you? Cynthia is a saintess personally chosen by the God of Light! Everyone on the three continents—East, South, and North—knows how much the God of Light favors her!"
Carl had learned all this from his later followers, but his devotion to the moon goddess was deeply ingrained.
However, the criticism that "Cynthia is the saint personally chosen by the God of Light" will stimulate everyone's rationality as long as it is brought to the forefront.
Even those believers whose faith was not particularly deep-rooted were indeed shaken by this.
Looking at the wavering believers, Karl felt a sense of helplessness towards his incompetent teammates.
When he was furious, he became incredibly calm. He said, "I swore an oath before the Moon Goddess that I would never pray for her arrival unless I breached the royal city."
"Perhaps you don't know, but the Moon Goddess doesn't need me, Karl, to attack the twelve cities of the Western Continent at all."
"Whenever she appears, all the city gates will open for her. With a wave of her hand, everyone will willingly become her believer."
"But she still tells us to save ourselves, don't you understand?"
Karl shook his head, looking pitifully at everyone: "We are sinful people, and our self-salvation is to let the moon goddess see that we are redeemable!"
Some of the people on the other side backed down, but the saintess's stain still prevented them from entrusting their trust to the moon goddess: "But she is the saintess personally chosen by the god of light. However, now that she is here, everything will be answered."
What exactly is hidden within the royal city of Saint Louis has piqued the curiosity of everyone.
Carl felt sorry for his struggle:
"The Western Continent has finally welcomed a master, and we have finally gained the protection of the gods. Why do you want to destroy it!"
He pointed to the sky, "Humans cannot contend with the gods! Only the moon goddess, who is also a deity, can protect us!"
"Only she blessed us when everyone else despised us! Only she restored our sanity when the Western Continent was overrun by rage!"
Are you sure you want to witness the gods' disappointment in us?
As Karl landed with his final thud, the rebels began to cower in fear.
They simply could not bear the disappointment of another god.
But it was too late for them to stop him, because Karl had already knelt down in the direction of Ascaria.
Karl said sadly, "I think you bunch of fools don't deserve the salvation of the great moon goddess, but..."
Karl closed his eyes. “Great Moon Goddess, your devout follower Karl has encountered unprecedented difficulties.”
"Karl begs for your arrival, begs for your last mercy on the poor and pitiful people of the Western Continent."
