There was a constant flickering in the Sword Master's eyes, and it was obvious that he was thinking rapidly in his heart, apparently thinking about countermeasures and possibilities.
But after a long time, he sighed, glanced at everyone present with a complicated look, and then looked up at the sky, as if trying to see through the unknown world that was out of reach.
The bishop of the city-state of Fanit took a few deep breaths. Seeing that the Sword Saint Degoni did not want to talk for the time being, he did not dare to disturb him and sorted out his thoughts in his mind.
Everyone who was present just now could feel it.
When Paladin Leit said that because of the stupidity of the Nolan City Church, an alien visitor was burned to death by abuse of criminal law, causing the alien creature that could originally communicate with him to cast a curse before death, everyone present, whether it was the Sword Master's disciples or others, could feel a terrifying and suffocating power surging and being suppressed repeatedly in the Sword Master's not-so-strong body.
It was obvious that the Sword Master was trying hard to control his anger which was almost uncontrollable.
To be honest, even the many church members present found it a little hard to bear, even though they might have similar greedy behaviors in normal times. But just like many villains hate the villains when watching a movie, at this moment they were emotionally "united against the same enemy."
After frowning and thinking for a moment, the bishop still felt that his position required him to break the silence at the moment, or at least calm the Sword Master's emotions, otherwise he might have bad thoughts about the church.
"Sir Sword Saint, how serious will the situation be? What can we do now?"
The bishop spoke carefully.
"After all, the church is too bloated and comfortable. Even under the glory of God, there are dark corners of shadows. As a member of the church, I hope we can remedy the possible consequences!"
Qin Xiaoxia glanced at him. Although this bishop had considerable selfish desires, his words were still appropriate.
"You are right, Your Excellency. There is no use in being upset. What we should do now is to make amends."
"I don't know why there are such stupid and greedy bishops in the Norlan City Church, but if the stupid things they did have really led to the consequences we see, then the lives of people all over the world will undoubtedly bear the consequences..."
"It will take the lives of the entire world to bear the consequences" may sound a bit harsh, but those present had no doubt that something serious must have happened.
Hearing what Sword Saint Degni said, Paladin Leyte couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He once again witnessed a disaster that was most likely caused by the stupidity of some people in the church.
In the past, some idiots and parasites may have caused a lot of trouble in the church, but they were lucky. This time, those guys in Nolan City will let the whole world be responsible.
The Sword Master exhaled lightly, then took the lead and strode out of the courtyard, walking in one direction.
"Let's go to the strategic meeting room."
The strategic conference room is where the deployment of intelligence personnel is studied during this period.
Although it was already late at night, no one would go back to sleep at this moment, so they naturally followed together and prepared to listen to the Sword Saint's ideas.
The last time, when the world of Kaslopa and the Earth were connected at the world level, many alien creatures who were trapped outside the power of the Earth entered Kaslopa. So it is very likely that the same thing will happen in this world with a better environment and weaker world power.
Qin Xiaoxia was ready to take this opportunity to give a shot of defense to this group of alien team members that he had deceived.
That’s right, although Sword Saint Degni is neither a core member of the church nor a powerful figure in the city-state, this legendary figure has a reputation and influence that cannot be ignored in the small system that is gradually forming in this area.
It can easily lead to the development of events without you even realizing it.
It was about two meals after the "Sword Master went crazy in pain".
In this cathedral, which was originally a place for studying intelligence and information, a group of people who stayed up late at night gradually received shocking information from the seemingly calm Sword Master.
An obese middle-aged man was so shocked that he almost couldn't hold the cup in his hand.
The fat man sitting next to Bishop Neillo was the owner of the city-state of Fanet who had hurried over not long ago and had ownership of the city of Fanet and some surrounding towns.
After learning of the real existence of the "Sword Saint", the fat man lowered his posture and personally visited the Sword Saint three times and invited the Sword Saint to work in the city-state or teach his children. In Qin Xiaoxia's eyes, he was considered a big shot.
What shocked the city-state owner so much that he couldn't hold the cup of water was naturally the horrifying possibility mentioned by the Sword Master.
"Your Excellency Sword Saint... are you... are you..."
The city lord's words were a little trembling, but none of the dozens of people present had the right to laugh at him. At least he could still speak completely.
"Your Excellency, City Lord, I know what you want to ask, but unfortunately, I am not exaggerating. It is very likely that our world will repeat the chaos of a thousand years ago."
Swordmaster Degni spoke calmly, but such a calm voice made everyone in the room feel uneasy.
Just now, this powerful man, who was basically believed by everyone present to be at least a thousand years old, said that the world might fall into the ancient chaos crisis again.
That is, it was said by a strong man who had "witnessed" the "past" in an era when demons and monsters from other worlds were rampant and the creatures of the world were in crisis and their lives were at risk.
Qin Xiaoxia tried his best to use the limited strength of his body and his extraordinary language skills to touch the pitiful and fragile nerves of these people. A terrifying and dark doomsday scene vaguely formed in everyone's mind.
Once the world falls into such a situation, everyone's peace will be broken, a large number of mortals will become food for monsters, and even the world will be in danger of destruction.
Looking at the panic and confusion on the faces of the people in the room, Sword Saint Degoni sighed.
"Don't be lucky. We can't afford this price. We can't afford to take the chance to prepare measures before the chaos comes!"
"Bang, bang..."
A silver cup fell to the ground, and the steaming drink inside spilled all over the floor. This was because one of the higher-ranking priests did not hold the cup firmly in his hand.
Everyone looked towards the silver cup that had fallen to the ground, their faces showing a mixture of fear and helplessness, and then turned to Degoni again.
No one blamed the poor priest, he was just afraid. At this moment, being afraid was not shameful. No one present, including Leit, dared to deny that they were not afraid.
After Qin Xiaoxia scared everyone, he narrowed his eyes slightly and listened to the various breathing sounds in the venue that were inevitably losing their calm.
The Ridgetop people are not modern humans on Earth. They have experienced a large number of apocalypses and various fantasy and science fiction film and television dramas, and are accustomed to all kinds of "doomsdays". Even for modern humans, there are still a lot of chaos about various doomsday prophecies.
The exaggerated doomsday pressure is like a bolt from the blue for the people in the Ridgetops, and it is hard to bear. I believe that everyone's heart is shrouded in a heavy cloud.
At this moment when the atmosphere reached its lowest point.
The Sword Master suddenly opened his eyes, and his gaze reflected an aura that could not be ignored, causing everyone in the room to feel as if their hair was electrified.
Sword Saint Degni spoke again in a calm and firm tone.
"But there is still room for recovery. I believe that everyone here will not give up easily, and the same goes for all the knowledgeable people in the world!"
Everyone felt refreshed by the Sword Master's sudden passionate tone.
"If even we become depressed and terrified, then can we still count on those who are obsessed with what is in front of us, those who are ignorant, those who are intoxicated with desire, or the Qinggeli Empire that is very likely to have been deceived by the devil?"
With a "swish", one third of an old but sharp sword was pulled out, and the blade reflected Degoni's weathered face.
"Among us, some are resolute, some are wise, some are cunning, some are brave, some are greedy, and some are cowardly..."
At this moment, Degoni was like a sharp sword drawn from its sheath. Every word he said went straight to the heart of the people. He was no longer humble and reserved as before. He seemed sharp and imposing. He did not hesitate to look at everyone present and point out the shortcomings of some of them.
Some people felt ashamed, some felt helpless, but no one was angry.
The swordsman Degoni, with his not-so-broad body, stood up from his seat, slowly pulled out the remaining sword from the scabbard, and then looked at those who dared to look him in the eye or those who did not dare to meet his gaze.
"But!!! Heroes are never as perfect as portrayed in dramas!! He will feel fear and greed, he will cry and be afraid of pain, because a hero is also a living being with flesh and blood and emotions!!"
"A hero just made a special choice at a special time!! That's all!!"
"More than a thousand years ago, countless people with lofty ideals made the same choice as me. In later generations, their stories have been passed down to this day!!"
The sword of the swordsman Degni seemed to be coated with a layer of silver, and a pair of sharp eyes were reflected in front of him.
"Tell me, if there is such a chance in this life to fight for my beliefs with all my blood, who is willing to go with me?"
Inspired by the Sword Saint's aura, all the men and women present, young and old, regardless of their status, wealth, or class, felt their blood coursing through their bodies.
"Me!!" "Swish..." "I do!" "Me!!"
“Swish…” “And me!!”
