Secret: The undead do not die in the fire

Chapter 306 Be decisive!
boom!
The former 'God of Honor' Bradl held the 'Dusk Giant Sword' condensed by orange-red light in one hand, and slashed at Groselle who was blocking it! Even though this young son of the Giant King had died thousands of years ago due to the curse, he was still an angel, and still contained terrifying power that ordinary people could hardly imagine.

The Dusk Giant Sword pierced through the void and completely covered the place where Groselle was standing in an instant, turning into a sword storm that seemed to be able to destroy the entire Giant King's Court, tearing apart everything around it!
And in Groselle's hand, the terrifying power on the sword of the Storm Controller was constantly gathering.

The moment Groselle swung his sword, it turned into an invisible storm torrent, pouring down towards the dusk that seemed to destroy everything!

The sweeping sword storm completely submerged Groselle, and the invisible storm also tore through the dusk, leaving a horrific scar on Bradl's body that stretched from his right shoulder to his left lower abdomen, almost splitting him in half!
On the other hand, Groselle, who was submerged, still stood in the center of the storm, seemingly unharmed.

The orange-red blade storm swirled around Groselle, creating a turbulent orange-red airflow. However, no matter how violently these orange-red blade storms swept, they would be shattered by the storm created by the Storm Controller when they reached Groselle.

The storm outside seemed extremely violent and could almost tear everything apart.

But around Groselle, a vacuum zone was created, and the storm almost stopped.

This made Groselle feel like he was in the eye of a typhoon, seemingly dangerous but not hurt at all.

He simply waved the Storm Controller in his hand again and again, allowing the storms that were like huge blades to penetrate the void, tearing apart the "curse" surrounding Bradl, and tearing apart the body of the blue-black giant again and again, leaving behind horrific scars.

Bradl was too dead to think.

And now, even his 'corpse' has become fragmented.

boom!
The 'God of Honor' fell down with a loud bang, and its fallen figure completely crushed a spire.

And its body was shattered in the roar of the spire collapsing, and its limbs and body 'disintegrated' into countless rotten fragments, falling from the sky like a bloody rain, and the pollution remaining in the rotten flesh and blood completely polluted everything around it.

The originally flat ground was corroded into countless pits, and the originally magnificent buildings became dilapidated due to the pollution. The fragmented pieces were also rotting rapidly, turning into a pile of stinking bones.

pat!

Groselle crossed the corroded ground and came to the side of the God of Honor. He looked at the dead limbs, but still struggled to stand up, still emitting the curse in all directions, with an extremely sad look in his eyes.

The giant touched his chest with his right hand and said in a low voice:
"Lord Bradl, may your soul rest in peace on the Iron Throne."

Groselle finished speaking and slowly raised the Storm Binder in his hand.

He calmly wielded the greatsword known as the giant killer in his hand. The approaching storm made it impossible for the 'God of Honor' to avoid it. In his dead eyes, he chopped off his head.

Derrick walked out of the house and along the clean, simple but ancient and mottled cobblestone road, all the way to the Twin Towers in the north of the city.

The spires of the twin towers were the library, merit exchange point, and daily necessities distribution center of Silver City. The dome belonged to the "Six-Man Council", a magical item that was rumored to have supported Silver City for more than two thousand years, and was a warehouse for formulas and materials.

At this time, Derrick's destination was the round tower, one of the twin towers. He received a message from the "Six-Man Council".

On the upper floor of the round tower, Derrick met Chief Colin Iliad and asked with some confusion:
"Mr. Chief, what do you want to talk to me about?"

For the God-Forsaken Land, it is now a 'night' where lightning is not so frequent.

At night, most people stay at home to prevent accidents.

Derrick was no exception. He had no patrol missions recently, so he stayed at home to rest and adjust his condition.

But the chief who was originally staying in the afternoon town camp returned to Silver City at some point, and even asked someone to find him as soon as he returned to Silver City. Although Derrick didn't know what happened, he inexplicably felt a little urgent.

Colin, whose face still had many old scars, looked at the not-so-tall boy opposite him and asked calmly:

"When can you be promoted to 'Priest of Light'?"

Derrick was stunned, obviously not expecting Colin to ask this.

Because in the other party's eyes, he should have been promoted to Sequence 6 not long ago, so they shouldn't ask him so soon.

After a long silence, Derrick said hesitantly:

"Now you can."

There was a hint of surprise in Colin Iliad's eyes.

Derrick hesitated, not knowing how to start, because he didn't know how to explain why he could digest the potion so quickly. Could he tell the chief that he had been training in his dreams, and that he could get a promotion as long as he defeated Guda, the Judge of Ashes?
Regardless of whether the chief would believe him or not, even if the chief chose to believe him, Derrick didn't know whether it was good or bad, and whether it would cause any bad effects.

Colin Iliad saw Derrick's dilemma and asked without asking further questions:

"What's the potion formula?"

Derrick did not hide anything and told everything:

"The main ingredients are the red crown of the King of Dawn Rooster and a piece of pure white brilliant stone. The auxiliary materials require 5 grams of rosemary, 7 drops of golden hand juice, 10 milliliters of rock water, and 60 milliliters of the King of Dawn Rooster's blood."

Colin Iliad's expression slightly changed, and he asked:

"What about the ceremony?"

Derrick thought for a moment and said:
"In complete darkness, bury your entire body in ice that normally wouldn't melt, and then take the potion."

Colin Iliad listened carefully and asked:
"You need to confirm one thing. Is it pure darkness or darkness without light? There is a big difference between these two concepts. If it is the latter, you can get it in the dungeon at the bottom of the round tower. You should know what I am talking about after spending some time there."

"But the inventory of Silver City does not have the materials you need. Maybe it's just called differently. I will check later."

After a pause, Colin continued:

"Of course, your merits are not enough to exchange for these materials, so if you have these materials in your inventory, the merits will be deducted from me first and counted as a loan from me to you. You can slowly repay it after you complete your promotion."

Derrick didn't dwell on the difference between 'lightless' and 'pure', but couldn't help asking:
"Mr. Chief, what happened?"

He was sure that something must have happened in the town camp in the afternoon that he didn't know about!

Colin Iliad was silent for two seconds, then slowly said:

"We encountered two outsiders at the Afternoon Town camp."

"Outsiders?"

Derrick was not surprised by this information, but he was still a little surprised and asked:

"Are they from other city-states?"

For thousands of years, the City of Silver has never given up its exploration and search for other city-states.

It’s a pity that over the years, the city-states discovered by the City of Silver have long been destroyed, leaving only ruins.

All Silver City can do is to collect the historical records of these city-states and learn about what happened in these city-states.

This also led to Silver City being pessimistic about whether there were other city-states in the God-Forsaken Land, but even so, they still did not give up exploring other city-states, and Afternoon Town was the best example.

But now Colin says he met an outsider, what does that mean?
This meant that in more than 2,000 years, this was the first time that Silver City had truly come into contact with outsiders! It also meant that they were not alone!

Once this information is publicized in Silver City, it will undoubtedly cause a huge response and shock, and everyone will be encouraged. But for Derrick, he has already established contact with the "outsider" through Mr. Fool, so he is not too excited about the Chief's encounter with the outsider. He only pretended to be surprised to avoid suspicion from the Chief.

The chief was not surprised by this question and said briefly:

"They claim to be from the Kingdom of Loen in the northern continent."

Derrick's expression changed slightly, because he clearly remembered that most of the other members of the Tarot Club were from the Kingdom of Loen!

He had already learned from the information provided by Mr. Hanged Man and others that the Kingdom of Loen was the country closest to the God-Forsaken Land. As long as they crossed the Sonia Sea and entered the God-Forsaken Land, they would be able to enter the Eastern Continent.

This was proven by the little boy Jack they met in the temple of the 'True Creator'.

And now someone had come from the northern continent to the God-forsaken Land. The meaning behind this made Derrick inevitably feel a little shocked.

Derrick asked subconsciously:

"What do they look like?"

Colin didn't seem surprised by Derrick's impatience. He slowly said:

"Two outsiders, one is a giant, the other is a human."

"The giants are no different from those recorded in the classics. From a human's perspective, they all look almost identical. Gray-blue skin, and a signature vertical single eye. There are almost no special features. And that human..."

Colin paused and said in a deep voice:
"He's not simple! He calls himself Ember, and the giant is called Groselle."

“Groselle?!”

Derrick's pupils trembled instantly.

He was very unfamiliar with the name "Yu Jin", because everyone in the Tarot Club used Tarot cards as code names.

However, he was not unfamiliar with Groselle's Travels!
Because he had heard Mr. Lover and Mr. World talk about "Groselle's Travels"!
And now, a giant named Groselle appeared in the God-forsaken Land, at the Afternoon Town Camp. Doesn't that mean that the human is most likely Mr. Lover or Mr. World?
"Where are they now?"

Derrick asked anxiously.

Colin looked at him deeply and said slowly:
"They have gone to the Giant King's Court."

"And not long after they entered the Giant King's Court, there was a brief outbreak of 'dusk' there."

Colin's expression was somewhat complicated. He had learned some information about the Giant King's Court from the classics. He knew that it was once the king's court of the giants, and with the blessing of the giant king Ormir's divine power, it was frozen in the dusk forever.

But the dusk in the Giant King's Court cannot be observed from the outside.

Even in the afternoon town.

Only by entering the Giant King's Court can one observe "dusk" with the naked eye.

And not long ago, they also clearly saw the "dusk" in the afternoon town camp——

That was the power leaking out from inside and outside the Giant King's Court, but the orange light still intoxicated the Silver City residents in the afternoon town camp. For the Silver City residents who had lived in darkness for thousands of years, it was the first time they saw the real "sun"!
Even for Colin, the dusk light still has a special meaning.

And it was precisely because of the leaked dusk that Colin guessed that it was the work of the two outsiders -

They obviously came to the God-forsaken Land with a clear goal, and that goal was the Giant King's Court.

Although no one knows what they did, their actions triggered changes in the Giant King's Court.

This gave Colin the opportunity to explore the Giant King's Court!

No matter what the reason for the changes they caused, it is a good thing for Silver City.

Because this at least means that the Giant King's Court will not be as dangerous as before, and now is the best time to explore the Giant King's Court!

In order to explore the Giant King's Court, Colin needs to concentrate all the strength he can.

Colin did not continue speaking, but asked:
"How confident are you about your promotion?"

Derrick was silent for a long time, took a deep breath and said:
"I don't know, Your Excellency the Chief, I need to go back and prepare myself."

"can."

Colin was not surprised by this, as he knew Derrick was going to ask about the person behind him.

This is exactly what he hoped for -

The reason why he confronted Derrick was actually to see what the person behind Derrick was thinking.

Or, does that person have any suggestions for their actions.

Colin said:

"You go back first."

Derrick bowed and left the room with a confused mind.

As he was descending, Derrick suddenly caught a glimpse of a slender figure out of the corner of his eye.

She was wearing a black robe embroidered with many mysterious purple patterns, and her silver-gray hair was draped in thick but slightly curly hair.

Her face was smooth and fair, her eyebrows and eyes were majestic and beautiful, and she looked to be in her early thirties. Her pair of light grey eyes seemed to be able to see through the soul.

It was Elder Lovia, the 'Shepherd' who was one of the members of the 'Six-member Council'!
Derrick only took a glance, then lowered his head, put his hand on his chest, and greeted in a deep voice:
"Hello, Elder Lovia."

"Yeah." Facing Derrick's greeting, Lovia nodded slightly without saying anything more. She passed him in silence and walked towards the chief's room.

Derrick immediately realized that she had been notified just like him.

In other words, the 'Six-member Council' had all received notice from the Chief.

Perhaps they are here to discuss the exploration of the Giant King's Court!
This made Derrick feel a little urgent, and he had to complete the promotion as soon as possible.

Otherwise, with only Sequence 6, he would not be qualified to participate in this exploration!
only……

Derrick looked at Luo Weiya's back as she left, feeling a little conflicted.

Although Miss Justice asked him not to be prejudiced against Elder Lovia, the stereotyped impression had already been formed and it was not so easy to change.
