Chapter 31 I am your father, your king (please collect and follow up)

The flame burns brightly on the candlestick, bringing flickering light.

In the empty hall.

Adam sat on his throne, holding his chin with his hand, and fell into deep thought.

"Starlight...what does it mean?"

"I was hallucinating, or other people in the city were deceived."

Although he has not figured out the truth of the matter, Adam has realized that he may be facing an enemy that is too powerful to defeat. He is lurking in the void, full of threats, and can even distort people's minds, perceptions and even bodies at will.

The proud dragonborn descendants of the Primordial Fire degenerated and twisted into deformed monsters.

Moreover, the opponent is very smart.

He will not take the initiative to stand in front of himself, but will lurk among the crowd and create divisions wantonly.

"Yes, this is indeed very difficult, but as the leader of the dragonborn, as a sacrifice to the gods... I can't give up no matter what kind of opponent I face."

Adam once again thought of what his father had said to him.

Sacrifice... is to bring light and fire to the ethnic group in the darkness, but now a darkness more terrifying than the evil god Jakula has arrived.

Before Adam's throne.

On a tray made of stone, the separated bodies of the sacrificial corpses were placed.

The pure black pupils belonging to the king were slanted, staring blankly at Adam, causing a chill to permeate the entire hall.

"Perception may be distorted, but the flames given by the gods will not." Adam thought of a way in his mind. A sharp light burst out from his eyes, he opened his mouth, and spit out fiery breath towards his body, a scorching stream of flames.

Adam was wrapped up in an instant.

Ignite the flame runes all over your body and enter a burning state. Even now, it is still an extremely difficult high-level rune skill for the Dragonborn.

In the entire Dragonborn Kingdom, among the millions of Dragonborn, there are only a few who can master this skill.

However, as early as thousands of years ago.

When Adam just came of age, he was already able to use this method skillfully. In fact, many dragonborns in the current tribe who mastered this technique were taught by Adam himself, including Adam's two children.

Fire strong enough to melt stone burned on Adam's body.

However, due to the special physique inherited from the original fire, Adam did not feel any discomfort, only a faint warm feeling like soaking in a hot spring.

"The power of the original fire has not abandoned me, which means that my perception should not be wrong."

Adam breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself.

immediately.

He breathed out another breath of fire.

The flames ignited the sacrifice on the stone tray in front of him, and the flames burned on the corpse, but Adam clearly heard some kind of weird scream.

When the Dragonborn is alive, he has strong fire resistance, but this resistance will gradually disappear after death. Otherwise, the Dragonborn will not be able to turn into dust in the flames and enter the kingdom of gods.

But this time.

The body of the high priest is slowly melting, and at the same time it is constantly twisting and deforming.

When he was about to disappear and couldn't see clearly the shape, Adam saw countless tentacles and sharp teeth spreading outwards from the bloody body of the high priest, and the disgusting dark green liquid was also dripping outwards, making a ticking sound, and then

All were engulfed in boiling flames.

"The sacrifice to the gods has turned into a miserable monster." Adam thought sadly.

Immediately, he felt an uncontrollable coldness spreading.

As the stars set.

There are countless descendants of gods throughout the city who have become the same existence as the sacrifices.

Ta-ta-ta!

The sound of rapid footsteps came from outside the palace.

Adam quickly stood up and looked in the direction of the sound, and saw a familiar figure in the rolling darkness, which was his daughter Hispania.

"Why do you come here alone, my treasure."

Hispania looked frightened.

Adam subconsciously wanted to reach out, hold his daughter in his arms as usual, and gently caress her little head.

But at this moment.

Adam suddenly thought of what happened in the temple not long ago.

His movements stopped in mid-air. This indomitable warrior who dared to rush forward and strike with a sword when facing the evil god Jagula, felt great fear for the first time. He was so afraid that his daughter would suddenly turn into that

A monster like a sacrificial creature, with its head exploding and attacking itself with blasphemous tentacles and flesh.

"Stop..."

Adam's generous palm gradually fell.

He said sincerely to his daughter on the palace corridor. Even he himself did not notice that there was a slight trembling sound in his voice.

Fortunately, Hispania seemed to still have his own consciousness, and he stayed in the hall obediently after hearing Adam's voice.

"Father, I am worried about your safety... Some people say you are crazy, but I think it is this city that is really going crazy..."

There was unconcealable horror in Hispania's voice.

Wait until you see Adam.

The excitement slowly subsided.

"Don't be afraid, child, I am your father, and I am also your king...I will protect you, just like I have always done before."

Adam calmed his daughter's emotions with gentle words, and then he said, "Remember the technique I taught you before, try to ignite the fire in your body."

"Why?"

Hispania was a little confused, but still did as Adam said.

She is not as tall and strong as Adam and her brother, but her body is wrapped with more magnificent and bright flame patterns, like blooming scarlet flowers. As the power of the flame rune is activated, those scarlet flowers bloom.

, bright and pure flames burned in the hall, and the darkness let out a strange scream of terror as if it was being burned, and rolled away.

"Very good, you have proved yourself, you are the little guy favored by God."

Adam breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he walked to Hispania, gently took his daughter into his arms, and stroked the protruding scales on her head.

"Tell me what you saw."

"I saw the tribesmen wandering outside, as if it was daytime, but there was no sound in the whole city. Those people did not speak and just wandered stiffly back and forth on the city streets. The starry sky was bright and dazzling, like individual stars.

The glowing eyes are looking at us greedily, and I don’t know why these things are happening...Father, I am very scared." Hispania said with sobs.

"I understand. Leave this city with your brother and go to Gatan City to find Kosvo. He is my comrade. He will give you shelter, guide you, and train you to become a qualified leader.

A qualified sacrifice."

"So, what about you, father?"

"I want to fight the monsters in the city and win."
