Mystery: The arrival of the new Black Emperor

Of course, Hobert's spirituality was aware of Tamara's presence in advance, and he was not surprised that Tamara knew about the Solomon family gathering.

After all, the "King of the Five Seas" Nast was killed by Eris. It is not difficult to see from some of Eris's performances that he obtained part of Nast's memory.

Tamara must have learned about the gathering of the Solomon family from Eris and was prepared to come here to receive this part of the extraordinary properties.

Although Tamara has been promoted to Sequence 1, Hobert is not afraid of this guy.

And Tamara also knew very well that Hobert could use the power of the "State of Disorder". She was not sure of killing Hobert, so even after being promoted, she never went to trouble Hobert.

When they met suddenly at this time, Tamara hesitated for a while whether to take action?

And Hobert knew that he couldn't keep Tamara, and he had no intention of taking the initiative.

So the two people briefly faced off for a few seconds. Finally, Tamara's eyes narrowed, and she raised her hand slightly, preparing to launch a tentative offensive.

Hobert also responded immediately. He threw up the stone key, grabbed it with both hands on the left and right, and summoned the "Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord" and the "Holy Infant King" from the "Land of Disorder".

At the same time, the space around Hobert immediately fell into a "chaotic" whirlpool, and he felt that his spirit and body were about to be shattered by the chaotic whirlpool.

The white eyes of the "Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord" were all wide open, "reappearing" a tall figure wearing tattered armor, holding a giant sword, and exuding dusk light.

The huge figure raised his giant sword and thrust forward. A silvery white light flashed through, piercing the chaotic vortex in front of him.

The baby in the "Holy Infant King"'s womb suddenly opened its eyes and glanced at Tamara.

Tamara's shadow immediately stood up from the ground, holding a black giant sword, and slashed at Tamara.

Hobert hid behind two angel-level tool men, extending the ability to "reappear" and letting the aura of dusk and decay affect Tao Tamara.

At the same time, Hobert "amplified" Tamara's shadow's attack power.

Pa da~

The stone key that Hobert had just thrown finally landed on the ground.

Tamara grabbed the black giant sword that was slashed at her, and the shadow changed back to its original appearance, lying on the ground honestly.

He used the ability of "exploitation" to end the ability of the "Holy Infant King" ahead of time, making his shadow normal again.

Immediately afterwards, Tamara reached out towards the "Hundred-Eyed Demon", and the "Hundred-Eyed Demon" immediately fell into a "crazy" state, slowly turning his head and looking at Hobert.

Hobert immediately realized that this guy was going to attack him!

He quickly "amplified" his control over the power of the "State of Disorder", and the tool man slowly turned around again. Although he did not intend to attack Hobert, he was also passive and unwilling to continue fighting.

This made Hobert realize that reaching the Sequence 1 level of "madness" would not only make the target fall into a state where it is difficult to form coherent thoughts, but would also cause reactions such as betrayal and passive sabotage.

Hobert stretched out his hand and brought the "0-73" Death Domain from the "State of Disorder".

Tamara's spirit body noticed a hint of coldness, and the next moment, the surrounding scene changed in vain. The original stone tables and benches turned into piles of skeletons and resentful souls.

They launched one round of attacks against Tamara's spirit body.

To Tamara, this level of attack was similar to tickling, but in such an environment, Tamara still felt a little stiff in her movements.

At the same time, the "Holy Infant King" also launched a "degenerate" attack on Tamara, which made Tamara immediately feel that her body had some very depraved thoughts that were contrary to his thoughts.

Tamara immediately raised her hand and "tampered" with the surrounding environment and the hostile target of the "Holy Infant King", so that these two abilities temporarily regarded Hobert as the enemy.

Hobert immediately "distorted" the attacks of the "Holy Infant King" and the undead, and sent these attacks to Tamara.

The high-sequence "lawyer" path of fighting between extraordinary people is like playing tennis, and they can "beat back and forth" extraordinary attacks.

At the same time, Hobert took out the "Sun Scepter" from the "State of Disorder", and a sacred golden light shone at Tamara, and the surrounding "Death Realm" trembled, which made Tamara The spirit body is exposed to heat and cold at the same time.

Tamara stared at Hobert, suddenly "tampered" with her position and left the battlefield.

The brief confrontation between the two angels allowed them to have a certain understanding of each other.

Tamara realized that even though Hobert was a Sequence 2 of the same path, he was protected by the "Country of Disorder" and could not suppress his personality. Moreover, Hobert could summon at least two angels at any time. helper...

Even without these two helpers, Hobert has at least two level 0 sealed objects in his hand, and Tamara can't even think of hurting him.

For Hobert, even if he wears uniqueness in the "Land of Disorder", he can't kill Tamara.

In the real world, even though he can summon angel-level tool men, even if he can use several level 0 sealed objects, he is still on the defensive in the battle with Tamara.

After all, the helpers he summoned were all at Sequence 2 level, and the sealed object in his hand was also at Sequence 2 level. If the "Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord" and "Holy Infant King" were normal Sequence 2 levels, they might still be able to hurt Tamar. pull.

But they have no problem completing the task of entangling Sequence 2. When facing Sequence 1, their use of extraordinary abilities and reaction speed are not enough. Their greatest role may be to block guns.

At the moment, Hobert sent the sealed artifact and tool man back to the "Land of Disorder", and then looked at the stone chamber. At this time, half of the members of the Solomon family were dead or injured.

Except for the two who were stoned and the member who was killed by Tamara, everyone else died in the aftermath of the battle between the two angels.

Some died from the attack of the undead in the "Death Realm" just now, some died from the declining influence of the "Reappearance" of the "Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord", and some died from the burning and purification of the spiritual body by the holy light just now.

The battle was over and they were about to escape, but Hobert exuded angelic pressure, causing them to kneel on the ground again.

Hobert used the method of "distorting" space to make the stone key appear in his palm. He smiled and said to everyone: "Ryan Solomon has been killed by me, and now I am here to receive the members of the Solomon family.

"You can either actively pledge allegiance to me, or pledge allegiance to me in the form of extraordinary characteristics. Choose for yourself."

Bunir and the others didn't react for a while. Why did these words sound so familiar?

But soon, they all expressed their willingness to pledge their loyalty to Hobert.

After all, the battle just now made them realize that this Archduke Hobert was an angel.

Many of them had seen Hobert's portrait in the newspaper, so they knew the Duke of Loen.

If it was just a Sequence 3 player, they would still choose to fight, but with Angel, no matter how hard they fought, they had no chance of winning.

Hobert glanced at the dozen or so Solomon family members: "You are quite sensible."

In fact, He hopes to turn these people in front of him into extraordinary characteristics, so that it will be easier for Him to control.

But out of respect for Ryan Solomon, Hobert decided to give them another chance.

Although he has not dealt with Ryan much, Hobert still respects this kind of opponent who has his own persistence.

Hobert grabbed Bunir and the others, grabbing a trace of spirituality from each of them: "You have only half a month to bring all the Solomon family members and report to the Duke's Mansion in Backlund. .

"My subordinates are extraordinary people with the 'divineer' path. They can easily divine whether all of your people are here. If one of you is missing, I will kill one of you.

"Others may be able to escape, but I have preserved your spirituality. A dozen of you cannot escape."

Bunir was stunned for a moment and then said: "There are many family members who we can no longer contact."

"That's your problem." Hobert said, "Who told you not to contact me earlier?"

He did not give Bunir and others a chance to bargain: "Today is also a day. If I were you, I would not bargain here, but quickly find a way to contact family members."

After saying that, Hobert disappeared from the stone room.

After a few seconds, the Solomon family members seemed to react and fell into deep despair. They were just attending a family gathering. Why did it bring such a big disaster to the family members?

Bunir let out a long sigh and recalled what the patriarch Ryan said: We are in a very cruel extraordinary world. If we are greedy for comfort now, we will definitely be in disaster in the future!

…

Southern Continent, Rocklear City.

Today, the Balk family held a grand sacrificial ceremony in the wilderness. The altar was very large and solemn.

The tall Lawrence presided over the sacrifice. They first washed their hands with water, and then placed the tribute on the altar, which was the blood-stained crown.

Other family members knelt under the altar and prayed devoutly.

Lawrence first sat cross-legged under the altar, meditating to get rid of distracting thoughts, then went to the altar to light candles under the gaze of the tribe, first recited the honorable name of the "founder", and then began to recite the prayer:

"Great 'creator', thank you for lifting the curse of the Balk family. You are our savior. We worship you! Praise you..."

When the honorable name of the "founder" was read out, everyone immediately felt the gaze from the gods.

The people under the altar lowered their heads and followed the praise loudly: "You are our savior!"

“We worship you!”

"We praise you!"

After reciting the prayer, Lawrence began to make sacrifices to the "creator" amid loud thanksgivings.

In mid-air, the bronze-shaped sacrificial door opened, and the "creator" took away the sacrifice.

Amid everyone's gratitude and admiration, the "creator" withdrew his gaze.

Under the leadership of Lawrence, thanksgiving and prayer were performed again, and the main body of the ceremony ended.

The next step is to kill a cow, sprinkle the cow's blood on the altar, and cut the raw beef and distribute it to everyone.

This is a gift from the gods, and everyone will cook the beef carefully and share it with their families.

After the beef was divided, the sacrificial ceremony officially ended.

One of the inconspicuous female members of the family, Stephanie, returned to the tent together while waiting for her father to get the beef.

She thought to herself: The current sacrifices are too simple. If you ignore the level 0 sealed artifact, you will actually kill a cow? Not to mention the Second Age, even the sacrifices of the Third Age must kill a hundred spiritual creatures at the beginning of the ceremony.

Just as Stephanie was thinking of this, she suddenly saw a young man wearing Loen-style formal clothes appearing on the road ahead.

Stephanie, or Ornia, noticed that the young man's face was very similar to her former self, which made her immediately realize that this was a Trunsoest.

The people around him immediately came forward to salute, some called him "the one favored by God", and some called him "the Grand Duke".

Hobert glanced at Stephanie with his peripheral vision, and while being polite to everyone, he found Lawrence, whispered a few words to him and then disappeared.

Onya had a bad premonition, and sure enough, Lawrence found her that afternoon and took her to the headquarters in Angelou City.

Coming out of Angelou's teleportation array, she was startled by the mountains of supplies outside. She was busy everywhere and there were noisy people everywhere. She seemed to have entered a noisy market, and she didn't realize it until she entered the headquarters. Such a mess.

When I came to the general command room, I saw Hobert who was discussing something with several subordinates. When someone came in, they immediately stopped the discussion.

Lawrence said: "Grand Duke, this is Stephanie."

Hobert glanced at the plain-looking Stephanie: "You guys go out first, I have something to discuss with this lady."

After the commander-in-chief was left with only two people, Hobert poured a cup of tea for the other party, and then said straight to the point: "Is there any way to kill Trunsoest easily?"

Onya did not show any surprise. When she participated in today's sacrifice ceremony, she guessed that she might be noticed by the "creator".

On the contrary, she felt strange if it went unnoticed.

Before the ceremony, Ornia tried many ways but could not escape the sacrifice. If she further expressed her unwillingness to participate in the sacrifice ceremony, it would also arouse suspicion.

So Onya simply stopped avoiding it. According to the news she had recently heard, the Vampires had cooperated with the forces of the "Creator". She believed that the "Creator" could not kill her at will.

At that moment, Ornia sat down gracefully, without any quibbles: "The easiest way is to ask a true god for help. You can kill Him very easily."

Hobert smiled: "Maybe I should ask, do you have the method to kill Trunsoest?"

Onya said: "No."

Hobert asked: "How to eliminate Trunsoest's summons to the uniqueness of the 'Judge' path and the characteristics of Sequence 1?"

"Unless Trunsoest dies completely, there is no way to completely eliminate it. We can only use some methods to weaken Trunsoest's influence on extraordinary characteristics, such as crushing the extraordinary characteristics, or having the true god seal the uniqueness."

Hobert nodded slowly and thought for a moment before asking again: "Can the power of the 'State of Disorder' contaminate the resurrected Trunsoest?"

Onya asked in return: "Was He resurrected in the descendants of the Trunsoest family?"

"No, he was resurrected in the clone of an alien god." Hobert made no secret of this: "It's the alien god who polluted Trunsoest."

Onya replied: "It will have an impact, but not much."

Hobert sat opposite Onya, stared at her and finally asked: "If I threaten Trunsoest with your life, will He make some compromises or give in?"

"It depends on what kind of compromise and concession it is." Ornia didn't seem to feel the threat in Hobert's tone, and still smiled: "If it is something other than life and extraordinary characteristics, He may be able to do something compromise.

"But when it comes to life and His return to God, then don't count on Him... Well, I don't think anyone would make a compromise when faced with a similar choice."

Hobert crossed his arms and considered Onya's answer, and then said: "Thank you for your answer."

Then he said: "Next, you will accept the trial and punishment of the South Balam Principality..."

"Please wait a moment." Onya thought she had heard it: "You want to judge me? And punish me? Do you, do you know who I am?"

Hobert pointed his finger at Onya: "No matter who you are, in my opinion, if you kill a member of the Balk family, you will be punished accordingly."

Onya was stunned on the spot, why is the world different now?

Even if you don't consider that she was once the queen of the Night Emperor, and just consider the cooperative relationship with the vampires, you shouldn't punish yourself in such a way, right?

She thought for a moment before asking: "Does this mean 'creator'?"

"You can think so."

Onya still couldn't believe it: "Is it because a member of the Balk family died?"

"Isn't this enough reason to judge you?" Hobert asked: "I don't care whether you are resurrected or not.

"But if you resurrected by killing others...to be precise, killing your own descendants, didn't you think that such an approach would be punished?"

Onya took a deep breath: "Young man, you are too naive. This is an extraordinary world! The resurrection methods of many gods are far beyond your imagination. Are you going to judge them all?"

Hobert said seriously: "If I have the corresponding power, if they are not my allies or people close to me, I will judge them one by one!"

"Your trial is obviously unfair!"

"This is an extraordinary world!" Hobert reminded her using Onya's words just now: "This world is already full of unfairness, why should I give this world fairness?"

"Lawyers" have such double standards.

Onya suddenly smiled: "The world has really changed."

She asked, "What happens after I am judged and punished?"

"If you die, I will bury you with the etiquette of an ordinary Balk family member. If you are not dead, I will consider handing you over to the vampire clan." Hobert said calmly.

This once again exceeded Onya's expectations: "You actually plan to hand me over to the vampires?"

She is a little confused now. Is there a cooperative relationship between the "creator" and the vampire? Or an enemy?

If he returns to the vampire clan, won't it cause conflict between the two parties?

Hobert did not answer Ornia's question. Instead, after removing the "tampering" with the surrounding environment, he called Angus in and took Ornia to trial.

And told Angus that he could apply to use the "0-73" death field to punish the target.

…

Helen lost her temper completely after seeing Audrey.

At first, Helen thought that she could not arouse the lord's desire because of Forsi's good figure. However, after meeting Audrey, Helen realized that it turned out that Grand Duke Hobert was attracted to Audrey because he had known her for a long time. Beauty has a certain immunity.

Audrey was obviously wearing an ordinary formal suit, but her temperament and appearance made the clothes look very expensive, making Helen and other "witches" feel a little unconfident.

Especially after knowing that Audrey was not an Extraordinary of the "Witch" path, Helen was completely convinced.

After Audrey was in place, the negotiation team officially set off.

The location for negotiations between the South Balam Principality and the Eternal Sun Church was finally chosen in the city of Feneport.

This is Upton's suggestion. Now "Earl's Light" is expanding its business in the Kingdom of Feneport. For now, only Feneport is considered a "neutral country".

Audrey followed Helen and other members of the "Stinger Army" and used "travel" to arrive at a summer resort in the north of Feneport City.

Because it was winter at this time, there were no other guests in the summer resort except the negotiating parties.

After the previous defense battle of Rocklear City, Hobert ordered the "Earl's Light" of the Republic of Intis to suspend all sales to the Eternal Sun Church.

The Church of the Eternal Burning Sun has just initiated this negotiation and hopes to continue to resume cooperation.

Because considering that most of the business targets in the Republic of Intis are believers of the Church of the Eternal Sun, and the church has been providing certain protection for the "Light of the Earl", it has prevented the Republic of Intis from attacking "Light of the Earl" to a certain extent. The Reckoning of Earl’s Light”.

That's why Hobert agreed to the negotiation.

A demigod has also arrived from the Eternal Burning Sun Church, but Audrey, who has been promoted to Sequence 5, can easily interpret from the expression and body movements of this "Undark One" that the Eternal Burning Sun Church, in addition to hoping to Continuing to cooperate with "Earl's Light" also has other purposes.

Audrey immediately recalled Hobert's speculation and believed that the other purpose of the Eternal Blazing Sun Church was to get back the extraordinary characteristics including a copy of the "Darknessless One".

After Helen clarified the other party's intentions under Audrey's reminder, she strongly stated that the Eternal Sun Church would publicly apologize to the victims of the battle in Rocklear City.

It is difficult for an orthodox church to issue such a statement. After three days of negotiations, the Eternal Sun Church finally made a certain compromise and stated that it would publicly apologize and continue to cooperate with "Earl's Light".

Hobert agreed to return the extraordinary characteristics of the "Singer" path he had obtained, but the Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun had to exchange twice as many extraordinary characteristics or sealed objects of the same sequence as the "Lawyer" path or the "Judge" path.

After Helen and the "No Dark One" each reported to the angel, they immediately signed the relevant agreement, and the negotiation ended successfully.

As soon as Audrey returned to Backlund, Hobert came to visit and congratulated Audrey on completing the diplomatic mission of the South Balam Principality for the first time.

The two of them chatted about the negotiation process while drinking afternoon tea.

Audrey asked a little strangely: "Hobert, why do both parties have a tacit agreement not to attack each other in the future?"

"This is the consideration of the current situation by both parties." Hobert explained with a smile: "The Principality of South Balam will definitely expand southward in the near future, and it will inevitably conflict with the Republic of Intis.

"At the same time, the conflict with the Eternal Sun Church is inevitable, and the cooperation between the two parties in the Northern Continent will continue. There is no agreement about the future, which means that both parties have acquiesced in the model of 'Fight in the Southern Continent and Cooperate in the Northern Continent'. "
