Can't I develop my own character?

Looking at this gorgeous attribute panel, Ryan nodded with satisfaction.

She truly deserves to be his favorite second wife.

"Xiao Mo, Xiao Mo, look at Xia Li, then look at you. The Wild Hunt's reputation cannot be allowed to fall into disgrace like this."

In fact, the Deep Sea Hunter is already very strong, but its level has not yet been raised. Another very important point is that the Black Sword Elk has not been repaired. The power of this thing will be greatly reduced after it reaches the third level.

If she continues to use it, the effect will definitely not be as good as those fourth- and fifth-level weapons. After Mortis is done with her busy schedule, Ryan plans to let her look for clues about the black sword.

At least if I can find that old man, I can ask him how to repair the black sword. Otherwise, what will happen if I keep holding on to a broken sword?

While thinking, Charlie had already followed Mortis out of the hall and went to another place in the castle.

In fact, all nine congressmen had already arrived, but Ryan divided them into two groups for safety reasons, five on one side and four on the other. Killing five of them would allow 'Xia Li' to advance, and then he could deal with the remaining four.

If nine people were gathered together, it would be difficult for 'Xia Li' to kill them all.

"It's unbearable to watch. It's a complete crush."

In the picture, 'Mortis' used the same trick again. She came to attract the attention of four congressmen. 'Charlie' killed one with a sneak attack, chased and killed another one, and the remaining two were no match for her at all.

It's just that the mind control does cause some trouble for 'Xia Li'. The control ability of the Path of Desire is very famous, but unfortunately the damage is too low. Even if 'Xia Li' is controlled for a short time, the Blood Bull Knight is not bragging, and they can't lose much blood even if they hit her.

Not long after, these four people were also killed by "Xia Li".

Ryan rubbed his chin. With Charlie's current strength, she should be more than capable of defeating Monica. Moonlight Knight? What a rubbish class! It's just for the Moonlight Knights.

After dealing with all the council members, Ryan asked 'Xia Li' to carry the train back to Silvermoon City overnight, and then he switched to 'Lin Qi''s character interface.

At this time, the Saint Lady was ordering the people of the Gate of Janus to begin clearing out the cultists of desire lurking in various countries.

Although they are called various countries, in fact they are mainly the royal cities. The people from the Janus Gate sneaked in beforehand and then carried out precise strikes according to the list provided by "Motis".

These people are the top brass who are currently in control of the situation, one by one. The Janus Gate has their own identification methods, and their ability to capture heretics is indeed outstanding.

And after tonight, the entire Northern Federation will change.

...

A bloodbath overnight!

Woke up... nothing happened.

Because the news of the king's murder was concealed, the purge had little impact on the civilian population. The City of Desire was merely impersonating the king. At most, a few underlings were dispatched by the parliamentarians to publicly help govern the country. While their deaths caused some stir, they were far from explosive news.

It was not until Lin Qi led the Paladins to appear in Adkis that the Gate of Janus publicly announced and responded to the news that Wildea had been accusing the Northern Federation of being controlled by pagans in recent days - this was true, the City of Desire did control the Northern Federation, but under the wise decision of Queen Diana, Adkis finally cooperated with the Gate of Janus to successfully resolve the conspiracy of the City of Desire!

As soon as the news came out, the entire Northern Federation fell into a brief chaos.

Although the federal state has been established, each country still maintains its independent operation. As a result, the king suddenly disappeared. Who can I go to for justice?

Fortunately, only the king was gone. After all, the City of Desire had a limited population, and they couldn't kill all the royal family members of various countries. If the king was gone, they would just choose another one. As long as the pagan threat was eliminated, the Federation would still be a powerful Federation.

The death of the king has little impact on the lives of his subjects. Under the unified regime, the death of the king does not actually have that much impact, after all, the federal head 'Motis' is still there.

As for how likely it is that she is a cultist of desire, Saint Lin Qi personally verified it with the power of Janus in front of the people of Adkis. Under the illumination of the light of Janus, Queen Diana shed her disguise of many years and put on her "true face". She announced that Adkis will move towards a new future and Diana will change her name to "Motis" from now on.

This series of absurdities became reasonable under Lin Qi's operation. Everything was guided by Janus. In fact, as long as the noble ministers in the Royal City of Adkis did not object, it would be impossible for the common people to raise any objection.

As for those noble ministers, they had either been dealt with by Kant and his men before this, or there were actually only a few left, and they had all been developed into Motis's own people.

Ryan couldn't help but sigh that the influence of religious forces was indeed great. The ignorant people had no right to speak, and they only needed to believe in the "voice of God."

The noble grandfathers who have a say will also assess the situation. Under the premise of the establishment of the Northern Federation, the political systems of various countries have been integrated into the federation. In other words, it is not important whether "Motis" is the original Queen Diana. What matters is that she is the head of the federation.

Of course, there are voices of opposition, and they are very loud, but this voice comes from Wildea.

Elvian was furious.

Originally, she was very happy after knowing the entrance of Janus Gate. As long as the City of Desire was eliminated, wouldn't the internal system of the Northern Federation explode directly?

Lin Qi's actions left her stunned. The ignorant masses couldn't see the situation clearly, or perhaps they simply didn't want to see it; it didn't affect them anyway. But Elvian saw it clearly. Wasn't this the result of a deal between Janus Gate and Adkis to support them in stabilizing the Northern Federation's political power?

What is this going to do?

Even a fool could guess that the Janus Gate supported the Northern Federation, which meant they were going to attack the Wildea Federation!

Elvian contacted Ryan immediately.

"Is this the help you mentioned? Don't you have a good relationship with that Saint? Are you asking her to help the Northern Federation deal with me?!"

Elvian was so angry that her stomach hurt.

Ryan spread his hands, his face full of innocence: "Queen, there's nothing I can do about this. Lin Qi also listens to the Pope. This is the decision made within the Janus Gate. Even as a saint, she can't change it."

"You mean, it was Pope Janus who wanted to do this?" Elvian narrowed his eyes. "I understand. For so many years, I have been opposing Janus's forces from joining the Northern Alliance. I'm afraid that Pope has long disliked me."

If Wildea took over the Northern Federation and established a unified political system, it would be even more impossible for her to allow Janus's forces to emerge.

Then naturally, the other party would turn around and support the Northern Federation to deal with them, making a deal in secret, which would bring great benefits to the Janus Gate.

Careless.

She had been so focused on dealing with the City of Desire that she had forgotten about this.

This move of driving the tiger to devour the wolf instead put Wildea in a worse situation than before.

"Hmph! Even if the Janus Gate helps, so what? They can't directly participate in the struggle for power on the continent. As long as they don't send troops, I'm not afraid." Elvian snorted coldly, "With the strength of the Northern Federations, what can they use to fight me?"

Spare 6 7

After saying that, Alvian looked at Ryan and softened his tone.

"Ryder, you'll have to work hard to find a way to hold back the August Empire. We absolutely cannot let them send troops at this time. Do you understand?"

In fact, Elvian was already a little nervous.

If Augustus sent troops at this time and joined the Northern Federation to deal with Wildea, it would be doomed.

So, we can only rely on Reid!

"I know you're having a hard time and are in a difficult situation... What do you wish for? As long as I can satisfy it, I'll grant it to you."

Ryan shook his head: "Queen, I don't want anything. This is all I am willing to pay."

"No! You have to!"

"?"

"What I mean is... you have made such great contributions, so I naturally want to reward you."

Elvian coughed lightly. Her idea was simple. Wildea was indeed at a critical juncture of survival. The Janus Gate was going to deal with them, and Augustus was watching them covetously. If Ryan led the Kingdom of Lot to rebel, Wildea would be in danger.

Although Ryan has always been loyal, this loyalty makes Elvian feel uneasy.

Because Ryan had nothing to ask of her, nothing to tie Ryan to Wildea... Avril as a lover? Haha~ Don't be silly, Alvian didn't believe that Ryan had such a deep affection for Avril.

Didn’t you see that there is Amabena on the left and Lin Qi on the right?

Interests, binding, the key point now lies in Ryan. She knows that if Ryan can find a way to talk to the Janus Gate, it may not be impossible for the Wildya Federation to allow Janus's power to flourish in the North.

There's no way around it, the Queen is also adaptable.

"Well, even if you say so..."

Ryan was speechless. This woman was so realistic. Now she knew how to give me benefits. What was she doing before?

"How about this, as we said before, I grant you the honor of a duke, how about that?"

"Oh, that's fine."

Looking at Ryan's indifferent expression, Elvian was puzzled. Is the Duke not attractive?

What does this guy want?

Wait...woman?

Oh yeah, this guy is essentially a womanizer.

It’s Avril, Amabel, and Lin Qi, I like them wherever I go.

"Sir Reid, what do you think of me?"

"Ah?" Ryan was stunned for a moment. "The Queen is naturally wise and powerful, and her grace is unmatched."

"Hmm...it's okay. Keep an eye on Augustus and notify me immediately if anything happens. Also, have Monica get ready. Our decisive battle with the Northern Federation is about to begin."

"Yes."

After ending the communication, Ryan continued to focus on what was in front of him - he was still watching the conversation between Lin Qi and the top management of Adkis.

It's been like this since just now, so he was a little absent-minded when chatting with Elvian. It was mainly because of that Duke, who wasn't very attractive, so he didn't care.

As for Elvian's next sentence, he didn't understand it, but it didn't matter.

......

Two days later, news about the cooperation between Janus Gate and the Northern Federation began to spread in the Northern Continent.

For a moment, the major forces in the Northern Continent seemed to understand something.

The best thing that the Janus Gate is good at is "cooperating with others". The disintegration of the Northern Federation gave them the best opportunity. On one side is Wildea, which has always refused to spread the Janus faith, and on the other side is the Northern Federation, which accepted help and negotiated cooperation. They can think of any choice.

Ryan knew that Elvian was really anxious.

Although Moonlight Knight won a great victory on the front battlefield, it would take at least two months to conquer the Northern Federation.

In two months, will the Janus Gate remain indifferent? Will the Augustus Empire watch?

This time, the Queen has pushed herself to the edge of the cliff.

"Well... almost."

In the castle.

Ryan was thinking about the next move. The situation was almost ready for the Holy Blood Army to take action.

beep~

"Sir Ryan."

Amabena squeezed her head in through the crack in the door and blinked. "Guess what good stuff I found?"

"A comic book you haven't read?"

"How could it be that kind of thing!" Amabena walked in with a pout. "Didn't you ask me to look for any information about the ruins of the God of Desire?"

"Yes, you found it? Didn't you say you searched the royal treasury but couldn't find it?"

"It's not in the royal treasury, but it's in my grandfather's tomb."

"?"

A question mark appeared above Ryan's head.

Girl, do you want to listen to what you are saying?

"I remembered yesterday that my father told me that when grandpa was buried, he asked him to put something inside. He said it was related to the survival of the Lot Kingdom and was a secret that must not be known to outsiders. Then I opened grandpa's tomb today and found this inside."

Amabena pulled out a piece of parchment.

This was a specially treated piece of parchment with faint magical fluctuations on it. Ryan unfolded it and found that it seemed to be a map.

But the weird thing is that no matter how you look at the map, you can't tell what it is. That is, you can tell that it is a map, but you can't be sure of the information it is supposed to present.

It's not because of a lack, but because some force blurs the cognition, making it impossible for the viewer to obtain the real information from the map.

This is magic.

Ryan looked at the map information in the lower left corner, and when he looked closely, he saw the number '6'.

"Is it related to the survival of the Lot Kingdom?"

He vaguely guessed that it might be related to the secret of the God of Desire. If the Lot royal family believed in the God of Desire...if this secret were to be spread, it might indeed lead to a disaster that would destroy the country.

So why not just destroy it?

And take it into the coffin.

What’s even more outrageous is that it was actually dug out by his own filial granddaughter.

Ryan looked at Amabena and said, "You're digging your grandfather's grave. Aren't you afraid that your grandfather will come to you in your dreams?"

"If he comes to me, I'll complain fiercely and tell him that my father has squandered all the family wealth!"

"you win."
