Born into a royal family and living a life of luxury since childhood, Jesus never thought that one day he would suffer such inhuman torture.
I don’t know how long it took, maybe ten minutes, maybe half an hour.
It was not until Mephisto showed signs of fatigue, and until the light of the beads in his hand gradually dimmed and finally disappeared completely, that Jesus collapsed to the ground like a puddle of mud.
He was breathing heavily tiredly, but there was no fear in his eyes as before, instead there was a hint of piety.
Mephisto laughed and dissipated the soundproofing barrier.
He glanced at the bead in his hand that had no luster at all and sighed: "This time for Jesus, the energy of the bead has been almost consumed."
Heishang's voice was very cold. "After all, it is the highest level of transformation, so the consumption will naturally be greater."
As he spoke, he glanced at the madman beside him. Unlike Jesus, he was a 'Frost' level transformation, which was considered medium.
The difference between the two is that the Abyss level retains all memories and even habits, but the soul is distorted.
As for the Frost Level, only some memories are retained to varying degrees. It does not have the agility of the Abyss Level, and it takes some time to cultivate complex thinking consciousness.
As the public representatives of the Divine Storm in the Kingdom of Alduin, they would naturally not let Jesus look very unnatural.
Mephisto smiled and stretched out his hand to Jesus who was sitting on the ground: "Jesus, welcome to officially join us and become a member of the Holy Storm!"
Jesus' mouth curled up slightly. Although he was a little tired, he felt good.
"It's my pleasure!"
He stretched out his hand and was pulled up by the other party.
Now Jesus can no longer tell whether he is Alduin or not, he doesn't even know whether he is dead or alive.
But none of this matters anymore.
"Let's start from Moonlight Valley and take over this kingdom!"
Mephisto smiled and said, "But before that, we need to have enough men."
Although a lot of energy from the beads in his hand had been consumed, it was still enough for the frost level transformation.
"The knight who just went out seems to be quite strong."
Jesus' mouth curled up slightly, revealing a smile that looked a little cruel, "It is his honor to be a member of the Holy Storm."
He took a deep breath, walked slowly to the door and pushed it open.
Not far from the door, Idrissa, the leader of the Second Knights, was standing there looking up at the sky with some boredom. He was very curious about what the lord was talking about with the three people inside for so long.
"Idrissa."
Hearing this shout, Idrissa came back to his senses, "My lord, what do you want?"
"I have something for you to do. Come in."
Jesus behaved as usual and there was nothing wrong with him.
Idrissa had no doubts at all and trotted into the hall.
…
In order to prevent Jesus from doing anything crazy, Roning stayed in Shore City for a long time.
But to his surprise, Moonlight Valley was always quiet.
Not to mention sending people to search and negotiate with Rhonin, even the merchants traveling between the two places had not heard of the deaths of Ramsay and Aengus.
It was as if the two people Roning killed were unknown little people.
But in fact, even Angus plays an important role in Moonlight Valley.
This made Ronin start to speculate: Could it be that Jesus's previous rampant behavior was all due to Ramsey? Now that Ramsey is dead, he can only keep his tail between his legs and dare not provoke Ronin again?
Roning didn't know why this happened. The merchants who went from Shore City to Moonlight Valley did not bring any valuable information.
But, just calm down, it will save you some trouble.
Time passed quickly, and it was December 20th in a blink of an eye.
The solid stone mountain was as fragile as tofu at this moment, and was directly pierced through by the bombardment of the scorching rays.
Luo Ning looked at the effect with great satisfaction.
After repeated practice during this period of time, he has been able to use the secret technique of scorching rays to 100%.
In addition, his fighting skills have also improved a lot through competition with Redal.
Whoosh, whoosh~ The sound of flapping wings came from far away, and soon two griffins landed in front of Ronin.
The ones who jumped down from above were Rydar and McCann.
With the help of Carlos, they have successfully tamed Ramsay and Angus's mounts, and can now ride griffins to and from various places.
In this way, no matter if something happens in Shore City, Boulder City, or Red Mountain Town, Redar and McKen can quickly get in touch and provide support.
The only pity is that now McCann is only a Silver Knight.
If he was also a Meteor Knight, Ronin's concerns about this would be greatly reduced.
Fortunately, after the early morning of today, the amount of energy and essence he has will be enough to allow Elron to be promoted, and then McKen's strength will be improved.
"I will return to Wubei Territory tomorrow to attend the Marquis' birthday party."
Roning explained some things to Redar and McKeon.
Time flies so fast, and a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
This year, Roning and his followers not only walked out of Shanlin Town, but also dispersed and stationed in various places.
The territory has expanded and there are more people.
However, although the original knights have dispersed, some things still have to continue, such as the knights' tournament that was previously scheduled to be held at the end of each year.
It is necessary to continue holding such activities that can both increase competitiveness and, to a certain extent, increase a sense of belonging, cohesion and combat effectiveness.
The events were held separately in Wubei Territory, Boulder City, and Shore City.
For this purpose, Ronin allocated a total of 5,000 gold coins to Redal and McKen.
Of course, the event rewards are only a small part, and the bulk of it is still used to maintain their daily salary distribution, recruit more professional knights, etc.
In addition, Roning also made appointments for the arrangements in the Stone Territory.
Simply put, Redar can inquire about and participate in all matters big or small here, including mobilizing the newly formed knight team in Boulder City.
His position was equivalent to that of a provincial governor.
McKen is mainly responsible for the military affairs of Boulder City and Red Mountain Town. If you have any questions, you can ask Ridal nearby.
"Although everything seems to be normal in Moonlight Valley, don't let your guard down. Both the Fifth Knights and our own knight squad need to intensify their training." Roning warned.
"Don't worry, sir. We will always remain vigilant against Moonlight Valley!"
Ridal said, "I have already told Sandro to carefully check the people who come and go in Moonlight Valley, and also to check the remnants of Moonlight Valley who are left in Shore City. If I have any intelligence, I will inform you as soon as possible."
As soon as Roning arrived at Shore City, Ramsey came to assassinate him. No one would believe him if he said no one had informed him.
However, removing the eyeliner from Moonlight Valley is a complicated and lengthy process.
The next morning, Roning set off for Wubei Territory on Carlos.
Before leaving, he invested the extra 72 energy points into McKen, raising the latter's level to silver (590/1500).
When you are away from home, the stronger you are, the more ability you have to protect yourself.
Before noon, Ronin returned to the Swamp Castle.
At this moment, the end-of-year knights' tournament was being held in the parade ground next to the castle. It was the slack season during farming, and many free people and even passing caravans gathered to watch.
With last year's experience, this year's Wubei Ling Martial Arts Competition went very smoothly.
Ronin watched from a distance for a while, then asked Galen to inform Elron that the first eighth-level extraordinary person in Wubei Territory was about to be born. (End of this chapter)
