I'm also trying to survive today [Western Fantasy]

Chapter 249

The battle broke out unexpectedly, and ended equally quickly.

Julian didn't even do it, these people were all solved by Owen alone.

Owen's shot wasn't too heavy, it just knocked the man unconscious. Coincidentally, when the man passed out, he was face down and fell on a rock, breaking a large piece of his head.

The corner of Julian's mouth twitched, this familiar formula... Forget it, he just pretended that he didn't see someone deliberately kicking the stone over...→. →

"Bastard! Bah! Let you hit me!" Wells was beaten badly just now, but now he regained his energy and kicked those who were knocked unconscious by Owen.

Julian frowned: "Okay, it's almost done."

Wells was a little annoyed, he didn't dare to offend Julian, so he could only withdraw his hand angrily, and poohed at those people before leaving.

"How did you mess with them?" Julian asked.

Wilston couldn't help complaining at that moment, saying that he didn't do anything just now, just stood here, and when the group of people passed by, he took a look, and those people rushed over to beat him like mad dogs.

Julian suspected that it was because he looked at someone too obscenely and irritated him, but when he thought about his own experience, he was not so sure. After all, he could take the blame for offending his fiancee without doing anything. God knows what they are It's not just that Wells is not pleasing to the eye.

"Forget it." Julian doesn't want to pursue who is right and who is wrong. The question now is how to solve these people?

"Ah! Killing!" A woman passing by at the entrance of the alley screamed.

The corner of Julian's mouth twitched: ...Come on, don't worry.

"What are you thinking about, let's go!" Julian pulled Owen and ran to the other side of the alley.

Wells jumped up in fright, but after running for a few steps, he yelled, and Owen had to run with him again.

Fortunately, the speed of the two was very fast, and they came to the street after three detours along the alley. No one chased after them, so they pretended to be careless and blended into the crowd.

Today is the grand ceremony of offering sacrifices to the heavens of the Medicine Hall, the entire royal city is boiling, the streets are crowded with people, more than [-]% of the residents in the city have gathered, and they have come to the square in the center of the city.

In the center of the square is a huge obelisk. There are many complicated patterns engraved on the four sides of the stele.

Julian rubbed his forehead lightly. The pattern gave him a familiar feeling, but he couldn't remember where he saw it.

A lot of people had already gathered in the square, and more people came from all directions. A row of old men in black robes stood under the obelisk. The first three were very old, with haggard faces, and their exposed arms were scattered. There are dense age spots, giving people a decayed feeling.

At about ten o'clock, the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven began, and the top of the obelisk in the center of the square emitted a soft light.

The light spread all over the square, and Julian felt warm all over his body, as if his soul had been washed by this warm white light, and the unstable aura that had just broken through to the magister immediately stabilized.

Julian was enjoying the feeling of improving strength, but heard Owen murmur in shock: "How is it possible..."

"What's wrong?" Julian wondered.

Owen looked at the obelisk with a look of disbelief: "This is... the power of the Goddess of Holy Light."

"What?" Julian didn't quite understand.

Owen's expression was extremely tangled. This matter was actually a secret of the Church of the Holy Light, but given the relationship between Julian and him, it was actually nothing to tell him.

After all, this matter is actually not a particularly secret matter. Many churches know about it. It is just a matter of the face of the Holy Light Church, so the outside world does not know about it.

Once upon a time, the Church of the Holy Light owned an artifact called the 'Golden Crown', an artifact bestowed by the goddess, which played a very important role in many battles with the Church of Darkness.Later, a senior member of the church was tempted by the contemporary dark saint and stole the golden crown. Since then, the golden crown has disappeared.

People in the Holy Light Church have always believed that the golden crown is in the hands of the Dark Church, but what is puzzling is that the Dark Church has never taken out the golden crown, and since the golden crown disappeared, the Dark Church’s scepter also disappeared, so later In the several wars in the past, no artifact-level battles broke out.

"You mean to say that there is a golden crown hidden in that obelisk?"

Owen shook his head: "I'm not sure, but what I can be sure of is that this power definitely belongs to the goddess. It is stronger and purer than the holy light we use."

Julian rubbed his forehead with a headache, feeling an urge to run away.

Forget about the dark scepter, why is there another golden crown?

And putting the things of the God of Darkness and the Goddess of Holy Light together... Will there really be no problems?

Didn't it mean that these two are not compatible?You can beat into dogs as soon as you meet... What does it mean for you two artifacts to be in the same world?Is this a secret marriage?

In Julian's mind, he involuntarily made up a story about Romy Rod and Juliet Crown, and then quickly deleted his own imagination.

He glanced at Owen: "Do you want to take that golden crown away?"

Owen was a little bit embarrassed. Looking at the fanatical expressions of these people around him, he knew that anyone who dared to move the obelisk would definitely make them desperate. Even if Owen could easily kill all these people with his strength, he was not a murderer. How could it be possible to do this.

If you can't fight head-on, then you can only... ahem, steal it secretly.

Owen and Julian looked at each other, and with their tacit understanding, they immediately understood each other's thoughts.

Julian whispered: "Then we'll talk about it tonight."

Owen hummed, and Julian turned to look at Wells again: "How is it, do you feel it?"

Wells felt that his mind was in a mess. As a believer of the Dark God, the holy light just now made him very uncomfortable, but at the moment when the holy light burst out, he felt that what he was looking for was right in front of him.

He pointed at the obelisk with a confused face: "I feel... something is inside."

Julian was stunned, and the brain hole that had just been deleted flashed out again.

He couldn't help but wonder if the Dark Scepter really eloped with the Golden Crown...

"It doesn't matter, let's take a look at it tonight." Julian said in a low voice.

Owen nodded, and the two stopped talking in a very tacit understanding, and quietly participated in the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven.

The ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven was unexpectedly concise. After the three elders in the Medicine Hall had finished offering their sacrifices, someone came to the stage to announce the end of the ceremony.

Surprisingly, Julian thought he could leave after the end, but found that the residents next to him became extremely excited one by one, as if they were looking forward to something.

He looked around calmly, and found that everyone seemed to be very excited, which means that what will happen next is that the opportunities for everyone should be equal.

Not long after, members of the Hall of Medicine came to the stage to announce the start of the election, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively. Everyone looked at the obelisk enthusiastically, as if expecting something.

Soon, many white rays erupted from the top of the obelisk. There were more than a dozen of these rays. They moved quickly among the crowd, and soon hit a person.

The person who was hit by the ray jumped up excitedly, and his relatives and friends cheered, while the people around him looked at him with jealous eyes.

One after another, people were hit by the rays, and these people came to the front of the obelisk very excitedly.

Julian noticed that before these people came to the stage, they all took a sign from the members of the Hall of Medicine in the audience. The sign was placed in a box with a hole in the top, and which sign they could get was all about luck.

Before Julian could observe again, he felt that there seemed to be something extra on his body.

Afterwards, several eyes fell on him, making him feel very uncomfortable.

Perhaps because of his strange reaction, no one cheered around, and even fell into a strange quiet atmosphere. It wasn't until Owen hugged Julian cooperatively and shouted congratulations that he realized that he had been selected.

Owen's words woke up those people around, and they all looked at Julian with envy.

Owen looked at him worriedly, Julian gave him a reassuring look, and then slowly came to the front of the obelisk.

He reached out and picked a sign from the box, and the member of the Medicine Hall who was holding the box showed a strange expression after seeing the symbol on the sign.

That expression seems to be a mixture of envy and schadenfreude, and I always feel that the meaning of this symbol will make me very happy..._(:з」∠)_

Putting away the sign silently, Julian walked up to the stage step by step, and came to the front of the obelisk.

The people who were targeted by the ray before were talking excitedly. Julian walked up to them casually, echoed skillfully from time to time, and successfully obtained a lot of information.

According to them, the person chosen by heaven will be favored by the obelisk, and after the election is over, they will go to the Hall of Medicine to hold a ceremony.

This ceremony can add 20 years to their lifespan, so it is called the heavenly choice.

Julian didn't think there would be a pie in the sky, even if it fell, the probability of being a trap was much higher than the pie.

Moreover, he also found that the brands on these people's hands were different from his. At first glance, they seemed to be the same, but as a magician who was proficient in runes, if he couldn't even see this, then his runes would be useless.

It's just that he still can't distinguish the meanings of these runes, he only knows that his brand should be higher than theirs.

After the selection of heaven was completed, the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven was considered to be over. Except for those who were selected by the selection of heaven, the rest returned to their homes one after another.

Owen followed Julian from a distance, and found that they seemed to be heading back to the Temple of Medicine.

He glanced at Wells, and Wells quickly raised his hands: "I will return to the hotel and stay there."

Owen nodded: "You should know what will happen if you run away."

Wells nodded quickly. If it was outside, he could still find a way to seek shelter from others, but no one in this city could beat Owen. He is not stupid, why would he seek death.

So the two split into two groups. Owen came to the medicine hall first, and with his strength, he quietly entered the medicine hall and hid himself.

By the time Julian and the others came back, Owen had already figured out the layout of the Medicine Hall.

Owen Diary:

Gold crown?

If I take this thing back, will I be able to marry Julian, become a guardian knight, and reach the pinnacle of life?

I'm a little excited when I think about it...o(*////▽////*)q
