Chapter 1356 The End of Fate, Patishalan Sea, the Lord of the Town Spirit

The flower goddess messenger on the sea of ​​sand is so beautiful.

The shepherd boy held the fruit carefully, without thinking why he got something other than water.

When you take a bite, the bright red pomegranate juice flows out. This small fruit contains more water than it looks.

The shepherd boy's eyes lit up.

He had never tasted such sweet and juicy fruit.

It looks like it came from the Kingdom of God. No! This is the fruit that can only be grown by the fruit trees in the Kingdom of the Flower God!

He thought so.

Lilupal looked at the fruit with tenderness and satisfaction. The plump grains burst between the shepherd boy's teeth and the rich juice flowed out from his lips.

Pomegranate is a sweet fruit condensed from the tyrant's wine, the love of lovers, and the blood of innocent victims.

At this moment, she shared with this shepherd boy who looked like Olmaz.

The ignorant shepherd boy never knew that he was drawing blood and wine.

How can mortals penetrate the material disguised and reconstructed by the power of the spiritual realm?

Lilupal left with a secret smile, feeling quite happy.

Normally, where is she?

A long time ago, she waited in the Moon Temple for Shirin's son, Shirui, who had been imprisoned in the dark "Crypt of Red Sand" and wore a brass mask to endure loneliness and oblivion.

How could a king with a weak heart allow his child to be free after being driven away? So after Hirui was expelled from the royal city, he was caught and imprisoned halfway.

This is true exile.

The mask is a punishment of exile. Even if the prince, whose face is unknown, takes off the mask again and shouts out his noble status, he will not be recognized. This is a deprivation of inheritance rights and identity.

Lilupal gave a revelation and a little trick, which gave Hirui the opportunity to escape from prison and gain freedom.

The wandering Hirui looked at Lilupar, accepted the upbringing and teachings of the Mother of the Town Spirits, gathered those who were also abandoned, and formed the early "Brass Mask" organization.

Moreover, he received a prophecy from Lilupal.

Here he will receive his mother's love and will get a real name, a name that belongs to the nobility when he grows up.

He was full of anticipation, looking forward to the day when he would reunite with his separated, loving and gentle mother, who was imprisoned by his father.

He could not see the vicious smile in Lilupal's eyes, nor did he understand the true meaning of this sentence.

Shireen briefly "woke up" from her madness, of course, this might have been with the help of Lilupal.

She once again found an opportunity for revenge in the monarch's rootless fear of children.

Hirui hid his identity and developed the organization. The knowledge, martial arts and wisdom taught by Lilupal made him the undisputed leader of the organization.

He could no longer see Lilupal, but he remembered the prophecy and often stayed at the Moon Temple.

One night, he was asked to wear a mask, thus gaining the right to make love with the goddess in the Moon Temple among the dewy lilies and in the silver night.

In the beautiful and lingering moment, he listened to the oracle given by the goddess.

Shen Ji knew his identity, his hatred, his misfortune. He, Xirui, was the favorite of the Moon God. Wherever the moonlight shone, it was the kingdom he should have ruled... The bewitching oracle echoed in his heart. His tyrannical and cowardly father, and he himself had a good bow and a sharp blade...

But his father's long-standing majesty and reputation for invincibility made him hesitate.

The throne of Gur is tempting, but the walls of Gur are equally solid and despairing.

Does he, who hates his father, have the courage to overthrow him?

he mused.

Hesitate.

...until the sudden night wind blew off the goddess' veil.

What a familiar and beautiful face.

He was so frightened and panicked that he could not hide his shame, so he fled from this horrible temple where his holiness had been desecrated.

Shirin, who was pretending to be a divine princess, laughed softly like a bell.

The cold moonlight bore witness to this false, illusory, and terrifying oracle that pierced into Hirui's heart.

This nightmarish night is destined to be unforgettable.

……

The king of Gur also introduced various policies to favor slaves. He set up shops, dormitories, clinics, taverns, and cemeteries on the construction site. He held free gladiatorial shows every seven days as a privilege for slaves, and guaranteed the slaves' food, clothing, and daily entertainment.

But are these reforms due to the wisdom of the king?

not really.

Ventilation was to prevent plague, and rest was for slaves to do better fighting work.

The initial reforms were due to the fear of slave conspiracy and riot, which would cause him to suffer the same fate as the previous monarch, while the subsequent reforms were due to the expansion of the power of the Brass Mask outside the city.

No more outcasts can join them.

The monarch understood that the city's population was declining, so in the end, he abolished slavery directly and taxes were no longer heavy, allowing everyone to work equally and freely and earn wages.

At the same time, the gathering of people is strictly restricted.

What a strict order it was. Anyone who gathered more than five people without reporting would be punished by flogging, execution, etc.

The energy construct that houses the Zhenling refuses to eat or drink, and instead builds defensive walls and the Red King's temple.

They are souls of soulless machines, slaves among the spirits of towns... They have never been given names, and no one has ever heard their cries... They are exploited and ground with suffering and malice, driven by hatred... Thousands of hatreds are condensed in them, creating everything with the desire to destroy...

Listening to the crying of my biological mother and her hatred for the monarch.

A rebellion broke out, and a few years later, Hirui raised an army in the northwest of the desert, marched south and united with the surrounding vassal kings who were hostile to his father to launch an attack on the northern desert region.

The city of Gur was surrounded by enemies on all sides.

The heavy guards, hunters, warriors, sorcerers who controlled the Eredals… a powerful army in ragged clothes and wearing brass masks, the brilliance of elements, the sharpness of swords, split open the gate of the city of Gur, toppled all the statues of the monarch, burned down the palace, and abducted the high priest.

The towering city walls and golden pagodas were overturned by the raging tide. The palaces and palaces were occupied by the poor living in ragged buildings. The violent mob followed the guidance of the brass mask and vented their anger at will.

Amid the light of fire and swords, Hirui found the monarch lying on the bed in the palace.

He stabbed him to death easily.

Watching the blood splash and flow on the gorgeous bed decorated with sapphires and golden animal horns.

Changsheng's father had long lost his reputation as an invincible man.

His army completely captured the city of Gur.

The child is better than the father.

Shireen thought of the prophecy, looked at the child who had committed treason in front of her and cried and repented, hugged him in her arms, and took off the brass mask on his face that symbolized exile.

Instead of scolding him, she left him a passionate kiss of blessing.

"You are the new king of Gul City."

Hirui became the acting third Lord of the Red Sand, sitting on the throne, overlooking the desert and the oasis.

There are also energy constructs that stare at the brothers and sisters who are housed.

At this point, who could fail to realize the prophecy of disaster, the blessing full of curse?

The town spirits cursed together, towards the Mother of Lilupal Town Spirits, and towards this abominable world.

"When the moonlight illuminates your imperfect face, we make our final vow... May gravel fill your shrunken lungs, and may all the green things turn to ashes..."

Lilupal was not intact from the previous curse of the "Seven Diseases".

The dust brought by the curse seemed to accelerate the shrinkage of the oasis.

But Feligis no longer had the strength to speak.

However, three hundred years have not yet passed.

This oasis kingdom with the city of Gur as its capital can still be called grand and prosperous.

It just isn't as prosperous as it once was.

People thought that this king would definitely bring a period of peace and prosperity, but they didn't know that the new king was tormented by a long-standing nightmare and often fell into a frenzy of fear.

The night in the temple, the night in the palace, the end of the previous king, the previous king, his brothers and sisters, and many blood relatives, even his own mother made him afraid.

Then, one day, who knows how many years or how long it was, during a frantic night wandering, he fell into a deep black fissure in the earth and disappeared without a trace.

The power of the abyss, the power of forbidden knowledge, the power of the dark universe, surged out from the deep black rift.

No one knows where this rift came from.

All we know is that it was an irresistible "plague" that wiped out half of the people in the city of Gur, including their king and his servants.

The entire country's system was completely paralyzed and the survivors fled in all directions.

The blowing yellow sand covered the royal city, and the kingdom was destroyed.

The tribes and city-states were once again in turmoil.

"Finally, we finally broke free from the mirror shackles and chains imposed on us since birth...Finally, we returned to the arms of our innocent and suffering mother Shilin..."

In the "Plague of Shirui", a disaster that was called the retribution brought upon oneself by a ridiculous and short-lived tyrant, Shireen and her offspring won true freedom in a land destroyed by revenge, and turned into evil spirits that avenged the death of the conceited.

Lilufar was satisfied and ecstatic with the outcome.

Shirin's blood relatives enjoyed a sweet future, and Olmaz and his descendants suffered this sweet retribution.

She had warned Olmaz during their first encounter.

"I will leave you with blessings for a hundred lifetimes, but the price should be the sharp blade of revenge and bright red wine, because the mad love of Zhenling is always accompanied by greed and demands. It ends in cruel revenge that is considered fair."

But the young shepherd never took this warning to heart.

Lilufar gave Ormaz too many chances.

After the shepherd became the "king", Lilufar gave him gentle advice many times, but the other party only regarded it as sweet talk between lovers in bed.

The Red King has returned.

Furious, he imposed excommunication on Lilufar by splitting her body and soul, and handed the split soul to sages to hide in various places so that she could never be reunited.

Felicitas's body and soul were trapped in the ugly machine, still hoping that her mistress would wake up from her deep sleep.

The water lily witch lured the mortal king into falling into delusion with her sweet lies, and the king of red sand also sank into a crazy dream... but she kept waiting, waiting in a sleepless dream... waiting for the king of sand to fulfill his ancient promise.

King Chi came to power and led people to build Aru.

The desert is flourishing again.

However, Feligis waited until the Red King fell into self-destruction and the entire prosperous kingdom was destroyed again. The mistress of grass and trees came to save the world and shrank in size, but she never waited for the "promise" to be fulfilled.

Nations compete for hegemony, and a new history begins.

The cycle of massacre, destruction, plunder and becoming kings continued until the first dynasty was established. The king of the dynasty divided the desert into seven areas, including the "City of Sapphires" Toledullah, the "City of Warriors" Saleh, the "Amphitheater" Ai-Khanym, and so on.

Humans and town spirits of different races each have their own cities and city lords.

The shadow of fate, the curse of Lilufar has not been completely eliminated because this king is a descendant of the Masked King.

The dynasty was short-lived; the king's daughter married the king of the Second Dynasty and died in the Zhenling Rebellion.

The Third Dynasty, the Fourth Dynasty, the Fifth Dynasty... city-states were broken apart time and time again, and fires broke out. The lords of each city took turns to become kings and establish their own kingdoms.

The lord of Ai-Khanyum put down the rebellion and proclaimed himself king, but he soon died, the city was destroyed, and its residents moved to Toledullah.
