Victor and Caligula left the city overnight. They identified the direction, chose a straight line without roads, and trudged through mountains and rivers. The next afternoon they arrived at Pinghu Town, led by Randall.

For his sudden return, Nicole, sisters Alina and Lilia were particularly surprised, especially Lilia, who was so excited that her tears rolled down like pearls. After the two got married, they always got together less and separated more. This time at Randall Church

The red beacon was lit. As His Royal Highness Gumbis, Victor was about to go to the distant Sasanian Empire to fight the Centaur army. It might take several years for him to come back. Lilia was not only worried about her husband's safety, but also afraid of herself.

Her appearance faded and she could no longer be by his side.

Victor briefly comforted Nicole and the three personal maids, saying that he would accompany them in Pinghu Town for a few days before rushing to the Minsk Fortress assembly area. Only then did the ladies calm down and go to the kitchen together to prepare for their husbands.

dinner

While Nicole and the others were preparing for the dinner, Victor put on his hooded cloak and quietly went to Pinghu Town Church to find Father Miller.

Compared with the tense atmosphere in the capital of Blinol, the impact of the red smoke beacon on Pinghu Town was very slight. After all, this is the southernmost point of the human country, still thousands of kilometers away from the war front of the Sasan Empire, and it belongs to the real rear area.

.Furthermore, the tenant system in Randall Territory has been quite complete. The Government Affairs Department has strict control over the territory. Almost all tenant families are recorded on the record. The lord can even check the basic information of each tenant family at any time, as well as the details of each tenant family.

The rescue situation of a newborn and an elderly person.

The Randall family's registration system and relief system for registered citizens played a vital role in appeasing the people and rallying people's hearts.

The entire Pinghu Town is like an efficient machine. What should everyone do and what else to do. The inner wall of Thorium ore is about to be completed; the giant brick kiln is still billowing with smoke; the main part of the cathedral is about to reach the fourth floor... Only those full of supplies are

As the carriages drove towards Jinshui City one by one, only then could one see the red smoke beacons lit on the church tower.

The evening prayers in the small church in Pinghu Town had just ended. When all the believers left the prayer hall, Victor took off his hood, revealing his handsome face. Father Miller was very surprised and shouted in surprise: "You...you don't

You went to fight, why did you come back?"

"Old guy, you don't seem to want to see me." Victor chuckled, dismissed the church attendants, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "I'm not here to ask for prophecies, so don't glare at me."

Hearing this, Miller put down his guard and muttered angrily, "You must be up to no good if you come back to see me... Sit down, do you want me to get you a glass of water?"

As he spoke, he picked up the jug, poured a glass of water, and pushed it along the long table in front of Victor.

After taking a sip of cold water, Victor held the ceramic cup and smiled with emotion: "This glass of water is really timely... Caligula and I ran nearly a thousand kilometers in a row, and the first thing he got back was

The thing is that I drank half a bucket of water and then went to play with Bell... If I didn't drink a sip of water, wouldn't that make me a monster?"

"You are indeed strange."

Miller sat down opposite Victor, nodded repeatedly, shook his head and said: "I have served as a priest in many remote places and met many small lords. There is no local lord who likes to think about the affairs of the common people like you.

.”

Victor asked curiously: "Do you think I am a kind-hearted lord compared to them?"

Miller smiled, shook his head and said, "You are smarter than them. I'm afraid the lords all have the same heart."

Victor was startled for a moment, then laughed and said: "Old guy, you see it very clearly... However, my people love me very much. Do you know the secret to making the people love the lord?"

The wrinkles on Miller's face became deeper. After thinking for a while, he shook his head and tried to ask: "What's the trick?"

"I love my people, they love me as much as I love them, and they love the Randall family and this land as much as I do. They will fight for me in my name." Victor

He said deeply: "If I dislike them, they will dislike me and the Randall family... I am the Randall family. Now, I still represent the Centaur Hills, and in the future, I will represent the Gombis Empire."

Miller took a deep look at Victor, twirled the gray beard on his chin, and sighed: "I really hope that you can remember what you said... and you are indeed a monster... In fact, you are already alive

He is over a hundred years old and deliberately pretends to be a minor in front of everyone?"

"Is this a compliment to me?" Victor pointed to his temple and smiled: "I am a naturally wise person."

"Innate wisdom also includes life experience?" The God-favored man muttered in a low voice. He suddenly felt frustrated and felt that compared to the little guy in front of him, he had lived a long life in vain.

"You wouldn't just watch something happen to a good lord like me, would you?"

"Okay." Miller smiled helplessly, leaning back on his chair and said, "What else do you want to ask?"

Victor blinked and smiled: "Then I'm not polite...Many people, including me, thought that the human country would face a huge disaster. But I didn't expect that the centaurs would fully invade humanity.

Empire, this is different from the disaster I expected. But now I have a different view. The invasion of the centaurs may be part of the disaster... Because the time scale of the evil gods is different from ours, and the time and form of the disaster they cause

Many times and in various ways.”

There was no expression on Miller's face, he just listened quietly.

Victor held the cup and said dullly: "If Ant-Man attacks Centaur Hill now, there will be trouble."

After a while, Father Miller patted Victor on the shoulder with a heavy expression and said: "My child, the future is chaotic, containing countless possibilities, but there is only one outcome...the origin of the world, which is the sea of ​​elements in the knight's mouth.

, or the Creator is turning the endless chaos of the future into reality - everything in this world."

"...This time the Centaur invades, I foresee that you will die at the hands of the Centaur."

Victor's expression stiffened for a moment, and then he sneered: "I don't believe it!"

Miller's old face showed a sly smile, like an old fox, "It's okay if you don't believe it. If the future remains unchanged, what's the point of your efforts? Turn the endless chaotic future into the result you want. This is

What you should do... So, stop asking me, let me live a few more years with this old bone. Kind-hearted His Highness Randall."

Victor spread his hands and said innocently: "But, I haven't asked at all?"

"...You." The proud smile froze instantly. Father Miller pointed at Victor's nose and said angrily: "You are playing tricks again...Isn't it fun to bully an honest man like me?"

Patting Father Miller's fingers away, Victor said with a smile: "Don't be angry, your explanation of the future and destiny just now is very interesting, but I also told you the secret of how to make the people love the lord... But, I

What I want to exchange is not your explanation just now, it can only be regarded as your extra gift... Actually, I have no questions to ask you, I just want you to take action for me once and try to save my life, right away."

Father Miller was curious and nervous. He lowered his voice and asked, "What do you want to do right now?"

"During this time, I met an... old wizard in Blinol City."

Seeing that the God's Favorite looked calm, Victor felt relieved and continued: "He is a knowledgeable person, especially in the field of pharmacy. Almost no one can compare with him. We collaborated to study the secret method of knight blood, and he once used

Medicine cultivates knights with pure blood. King Ryan and Princess Roland of the Kingdom of Cambis both benefited from his help and were successfully promoted to Golden Knights at a young age. Especially Princess Roland, her bloodline and the legend of August

There is almost no big difference between the ancestors. They have platinum hair, advocate freedom, are romantic in nature, have a wide range of interests, are a bit unreliable, but are actually very smart. They are simply the reappearance of August’s ancestors..."

"I carefully studied the research records of the wizard of Kite Castle, and then I made a surprising discovery!"

After a pause, Victor said with bright eyes: "I found that bloodline can affect a person's character. For example, the sailors of the Borui Kingdom have a hot temper and are enthusiastic and cheerful. In turn, a person's character will also affect his bloodline.

This was the starting point for us to study the secret method of knight bloodline, using the power of the mind to control bloodline changes, but then, I discovered that personality can be passed on to one's offspring through bloodline."

"Roland's character is like that of her ancestors."

Father Miller scratched his scalp, frowned and said, "I have never been able to understand these souls and bloodlines you are talking about."

Victor smiled and said: "The knight's bloodline is very abrupt. It does not belong to any kind of human bloodline change. It actually comes from the inheritance at the soul level." He pointed his finger on his chest, "My master is not my master, and my master is not my master.

There is a god living deep in our souls, who comes from the origin of all things in the world, from the elemental sea. The blood of the knight is inherited through the soul, which is part of the authority of the Creator."

Holding the water glass in both hands, Victor took a sip of water, as if tasting fine wine, and said with a rosy face: "I concealed this discovery. On the one hand, I want to use it to create a more advanced secret method of knight blood. On the other hand, on the spiritual level,

The changes are extremely risky, and my findings have yet to be verified... His Highness Randall said that character determines destiny."

Miller said sadly: "I still don't understand."

"Haha, then tell me you can understand."

Victor smiled cheerfully. After a while, he put away his smile, stared into Miller's ordinary eyes, raised his eyebrows and said:

"The bright mark of the Paladin family."

Miller stood up suddenly, opened his mouth half again, sat down slowly, rubbed his hands, and asked nervously and expectantly: "You...what do you think about the Mark of Light?"

Victor looked at him doubtfully and asked, "You look very strange."

Miller's face turned red, he frowned and shouted: "I...I like to study magic in my spare time. Can't I have some hobbies?"

Victor had no intention of exposing Miller's duplicity, and said with a smile: "It seems that we have a common topic... The mark of light belongs to the soul, uh, okay, let me put it another way, it belongs to the magic of the soul level?"

Miller nodded, and after thinking for a moment, he frowned and said: "The Mark of Light is a ninth-level magic. It was the authority given to the first pope by the Supreme Lord. It is not within the sequence of magic in the Holy Power Pool. It is completely the same as other magic.

Two different systems..."

The model of divine magic created by the archmage and alchemist of the Alchemy Empire? It probably also includes the summoning of the Angel of Radiance by the golden horn... Victor thought secretly and continued to listen to Father Miller's narration.

"I can use holy power to simulate the magic of light mark, but it cannot last long, and... it is very dangerous, very dangerous to people." Miller's expression was a little uncomfortable. He once tried to use light mark to change the soul of a wizard, but he died.

Those two wizards. He covered his mouth, coughed dryly, and changed the subject and asked: "You just said that blood affects character, and character determines destiny... According to you, the soul is destined, how can you change this?"

"His Royal Highness Randall also said that knowledge changes destiny."

A reserved and proud smile appeared on Victor's face, and he nodded and said: "The soul is mysterious and complex, and changing the soul will indeed cause unpredictable changes. Do you know about alienated creatures? They are the soul structures that have undergone huge changes, such as being affected by witchcraft.

The animals whose souls were infected have turned into alienated creatures whose ability is to collect the laws of blood."

"The limits of the soul structure determine the form of life. You and Sylvia are both the top strong men today. In fact, you have touched the limits of the soul structure. You have repeatedly emphasized that strong people who cannot be controlled should be restrained.

Self, in order to clarify yourself, otherwise you will become not yourself, which is equivalent to falling. I guess, if your desire expands without restriction, the consequence will be that you become a ray of holy light, and Sylvia will no longer be the West.

It’s Sylvia, she is a complete divine knight.”

"The structure of the soul can be changed, and the mark of light is the best example. And... Caligula, right?" Victor's sharp gaze pierced the eyes of the God's Favorite.

Miller twirled his beard and remained silent. When Victor saw this, he understood clearly and continued: "Caligula was on the verge of death and his soul structure had collapsed. After you saved him, you need to re-stabilize him."

The structure of his soul, haha, is it so easy to bring him back to life? In any case, you have the method and experience to stabilize the soul, right?"

Miller sighed and nodded: "It seems like this...I can't even admit it, but I mainly wanted to save the stupid guy's life. I didn't want to do experiments on him. Uh, of course, I did."

Done."
To be continued...
