"Who made you look like this?"

"Frost King..."

"Who is the Frost King?"

"I don't know..."

"Okay, let's change the question. Why did Achilles leave?"

"I don't know..."

Snap.

The corpse fell back. The man rubbed his brows at the corpses on the ground in front of him. "Excuse me, why can I only ask five questions?"

"That's the rule."

"Who made the rule?"

"I don't know."

The rule of talking to the dead is very strange. Why can a dead person only be questioned once, and why can only five questions be asked?

The man stood up with the amulet, "Okay, okay, at least we know now that there are probably more than 100,000 enemies running towards Aaron's capital."

"I think we can go home."

The half-elf woman looked at him with a puzzled look, "Have you decided to give up your heroic career?"

The man with the lute pointed at the half-elf woman, "First of all, we need to know one thing."

"You, a half-elf, are a simple hunter."

"You, a paladin, but you broke your oath and can't use the Holy Slash without the power of the Holy Spirit."

"He, a white-haired man of unknown origin."

"I, a civilian hero who is as strong in heart as in body, a beloved sword dance song ”

“We are four people, they are more than 100,000 people.”

The half-elf woman blinked, “But you said you were going to deal with the wights.”

The man looked at the snow around him and spread his hands, “I thought we were a group of people fighting against another group of people, a battle to defend our homeland.”

“But in the end, we have no allies at all, we have to defeat the wights ourselves.”

“This story has become a revival of the kingdom, which is beyond our ability!”

“What are you going to do now?”

“Me?”

“I plan to…”

“Stay away?”

I don’t know where this sentence touched the man’s nerves. After hearing this, he swallowed the words that were on his lips.

“Rat, stay away, only in this way…they won’t find you…”

Damn it.

The man carrying the lute gritted his teeth, "Let's go to the capital!"

"Ah?"

Jenna was stunned for a moment, "Why, didn't you just say..."

"Go to the capital."

Looking at Rat's back, several people looked at each other, "Is he crazy?"

"Who knows, he is obviously a Moorish."

"What's wrong with the Moors?"

"Moors are very selfish."

"Uh..."

...

At night, Aaron's imperial capital.

A blood moon was in the sky, and the royal city had fallen.

What the Styx said was right, it was too late for Achilles to go back now.

Looking around, the city was dead silent, something was constantly squirming in the darkness, and there was no soldier on the city wall.

Achilles entered the imperial capital, and the road was full of blood.

Looking at the bloodstains, some seemed fresh, but the city was terribly quiet at the moment, like a dead city.

The soldiers behind him looked at each other, "What happened in the imperial capital?"

"Why did it become like this?"

Achilles said nothing and rode his winged horse directly to the church.

The huge church was also dead silent.

Achilles fell from the sky, but he did not see any corpses, and the pool carrying holy water was stained red with blood.

He continued to walk deeper and came to the main hall.

The Code of Light was torn in half, and there was a shoe print on it!

Achilles adjusted his breathing and slapped the pillar next to him.

Boom!

There was a loud noise from the ground, and the ground of the church suddenly collapsed, revealing a spiral staircase.

This is the hidden basement of the church, a place that no outsiders know.

Achilles rushed into the basement, but there was no blood or traces of fighting in the basement. He pushed open the door with a cross sign in front of him.

Countless church members and some old people and children were sitting here.

They all had terrified expressions on their faces.

After seeing Achilles, their expressions began to change from fear to joy!

"Lord Achilles?"

"It's the Holy Sword, Lord Holy Sword!"

"You're back?!"

A church member ran to Achilles, "Light... Light, the Code of Light is invalid!"

"Those vampires, those undead creatures, they are not afraid of the power of the Code of Light. This is God's punishment for us. God wants us to die!"

Achilles' face was cold, "Maybe it's not that the code is invalid."

"What do you mean?"

The church member was stunned for a moment, and saw Achilles walk into the depths of the basement without saying a word.

The civilians and church members hiding here all gathered around and began to chatter non-stop.

"My Lord, please save us!"

"Those hateful vampires killed my daughter!"

"God, please bless us, bless Lord Achilles, and help him defeat those filthy vampires."

They were extremely pious and prayed, hoping that Achilles, the patron saint of the empire and the hero of the church, would protect them.

"Get lost."

Achilles shouted, and ripples of light spread around him, directly blowing away all the civilians and church members!

Puff puff puff!

All the civilians were thrown against the walls and pillars, their bones shattered and blood splashed everywhere!

The power of this impact was very terrible, it was not to the extent of shocking, but to the extent of killing!

In a blink of an eye, there was only one person left in the hall.

The church member was stunned in place, as if he had not yet reacted to what had just happened.

What on earth... is going on?

Am I hallucinating?

Is this person in front of me Achilles?

The blood drew a circle on the ground, and the splashed blood was all blocked by a layer of golden light barrier.

Achilles' body was still extremely holy, without any blood or dirt.

But the church member could no longer remain calm!

He fell to the ground in horror, "What are you...doing? You killed civilians?"

"Have you forgotten your oath and creed? You're crazy!!"

"You will lose the power of the Paladin, you will lose the protection of the gods, and you will fall into the darkest hell!"

"Tsk."

Achilles smacked his lips, then flashed forward, appeared in front of the church member and grabbed his head!

Boom!

The wave of light spread, and the terrible power directly shattered the man's head!

Breaking the oath is never just talk.

The power of the Paladin comes from the creed, and the holiness and kindness in the heart are also directly linked to the power of light.

It can be said that even magicians cannot use this power called light.

Only those who are truly pure and kind in their hearts can control this righteous and powerful power.

And once the Paladin violates the oath and is no longer just and kind in their hearts, this power will instantly disappear from their bodies.

Of course, the most important thing is the creed.

As long as the creed is not violated, it doesn't matter even if it means killing people.

For example, if instead of taking the Seven Oaths, one takes the Seven Oaths of Revenge of the Black Flag, the constraints of the Creed will be greatly reduced.

But Achilles' situation is completely different. He has more than 200 oaths.

The details of the Creed are woven and finalized by several bishops, and there can be no loopholes.

In other words, even under normal circumstances, his every move may lead to breaking the oath.

For example, seeing a person but not helping him.

Or having a little blasphemous thought in his heart, for example, this woman is pretty, will also lead to breaking the oath.

That is really unthinkable.

And his action just now is enough to destroy more than 90 oaths he has made.

Logically speaking, he should no longer have the power of glory.
