Chapter 343: Dawn Holy City
The center of the Dawn Empire, Dawn City, a once prosperous city now looks dilapidated after the baptism of war, like a desolate picture. This once indestructible city is now in ruins, witnessing cruelty and ruthlessness.
The city wall was originally tall and strong, but now it is incomplete, and some areas have collapsed, revealing the rubble and soil inside. The once majestic tower is now only a pile of rubble, like the remains of a giant beast lying on the ground. There are traces of burning and deep and shallow pits everywhere on the city wall, like hideous scars revealing the tragic battles in the past.
The city gate had long been deformed and collapsed, with huge wooden door panels shattered and scattered on the ground, broken chains, and twisted door bolts. On the road into the city, the market area should have been bustling and bustling, but now there is only a ruin, with ashes and broken daily necessities scattered among the collapsed houses, broken stone roads and broken walls.
The city's residents either fled in panic or sat helplessly in front of the ruins of their homes, their eyes filled with fear and sorrow. The surviving children searched for their loved ones among the ruins, and their cries could often be heard echoing in the empty city.
Although the war has ended, the poisonous snow has come, and the smell of gunpowder is still in the air, along with the breath of grief and despair, which has enveloped this city that has experienced the baptism of war. However, in these ruins, people still have hope, looking forward to rebuilding their homes and restoring the peace and prosperity of the past. The figures of believers of light can be seen everywhere. After experiencing the baptism of the abyss and the poisonous snow, people did not give up. With the help of the Church of Light, they began to recover. It’s just that people who originally had no faith now believe in the God of Light. This change may not be important to others, but Xingluo frowned. The center of the poisonous snow is here, and now it seems that the situation is more serious than expected.
The double baptism of poisonous snow and abyss has left this city in ruins. Most ordinary people who do not believe in the God of Light have either died or left the city. Some may have been born in this city, but could not withstand the multiple blows and had to leave, or have already died.
Xingluo didn't expect this poisonous snow to be so serious. Recently, because he was active in the territory and the garrison, he rarely went out to crowded places. The Falling God Empire was to the west of the Monster Forest, and the poisonous snow had been weakened a lot after passing through the Monster Forest, so the situation of the Falling God Empire was the best among the four empires. As the source of the poisonous snow, the Dawn Empire was not so lucky. The situation was very critical. There were broken walls and ruins everywhere, and there was no time to repair them. Because the poisonous snow was still continuing, the people here were miserable. Those who were able to flee here, only those believers of light were still holding on, and they always believed that the God of Light would help them through the suffering.
The bishops of the Church of Light have all been dispatched, but they did not save the believers who were close to them, but went to the most densely populated cities. The miracle of light is a symbol of faith and hope, and a manifestation of endless reverence for the divine power. Especially in the eyes of people who are entangled in suffering, miracles always occur at the most desperate or most needed moments, like the light of dawn in the darkness, penetrating the heavy clouds and shining on the world.
A typical miracle of light ceremony is often held on a gloomy and silent morning, when the whole world seems to be shrouded in endless darkness. Suddenly, an extremely dazzling light shines from the sky. The light is warm and bright, like the hand of a god gently brushing across the earth, dispelling all the haze and coldness. Under the illumination of this light, even the poisonous snow seems to melt, and the patients gradually recover. Some people may even see the dying people standing up again, giving people an extremely shocking visual and spiritual impact.
People knelt down one after another, looking up at the glorious gift from the Supreme God. The fear and doubt in their hearts were washed away, replaced by awe of life, piety to the divine power, and hopeful confidence in the future. The occurrence of the miracle of light not only changed the fate of individuals, but also became a local legend, inspiring countless people in later generations to pursue the power of faith.
Xingluo looked into the distance in Dawn City. That was the place where the miracle had just occurred. However, after using his mental power to sense, he vaguely sensed that there was a strong element of light magic over there. As a cardinal, Xingluo had no piety and was thinking about it, "Light? Magic element?"
As the heir of darkness, Ying naturally hates all light. Looking at the milky white light, he couldn't help but sigh, "How disgusting."
"Where there is light there is darkness." Xingluo's voice sounded beside Ying at this time.
Ying's body trembled, as if he understood something. Xingluo didn't expect that the other party's understanding was so high. He just said it casually, but he didn't expect that this could make the other party realize something. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, wondering if his talent was too poor, and why there were so many evil people around him.
The miracle came and went quickly. The poisonous snow stopped for a short while and then fell even more violently. For those patients who felt that they were much better, it did not have any effect because the time was too short. It just allowed them to escape from the torture for a short time. However, all of these people began to believe in the God of Light without exception, because only the Holy See of Light could bring them that momentary warmth, even if that warmth would cause them to fall into greater pain, even if it was only for a moment, they would never forget that warmth for the rest of their lives.
As a cardinal, Xingluo needed to report his arrival in the empire, but since he came here secretly to investigate Duxue, he certainly couldn't attract too much attention, otherwise it would be inconvenient for his next actions. During the day, Xingluo stayed in a Sunset Inn, and at night he and Ying acted separately, and the two investigated together. Ying moved faster than Xingluo at night, as if this was his home court. All the darkness was his eyes and ears. As long as he wanted, his speed of movement in the dark was almost instantaneous.
However, the premise of all this is that there must be shadows. The shadows cast by the magic lights are where he moves. Fortunately, there is no shortage of these things at night. Shadow is like a fish in water in the dark, and disappears into the night in a few flashes.
Xingluo also began to act. He changed his appearance and figure. Except for the color of his hair and eyes, there was no trace of his past. This was an ability he gained two years after being seriously injured. Of course, the pain he had suffered in the past two years had made him mentally exhausted. If he were not a magician with great mental power, he would not have been able to hold on.
