The days when I helped the protagonist come to power [System]

Although the priests of the temple and the castellan of Hosta Fort have tried their best to calm the panic among the people, the news of the Son's serious injury spread like wildfire, spreading throughout the entire Hosta Castle overnight. It spread to the whole human race through the post station of Fort Hosta and the travelers coming and going.

However, the panicked human believers didn't know that the temple had concealed something more serious - the human saint was not only seriously injured, but fell down and never stood up again.

After examination, the cause of Autuosi's death was damage to the heart veins, which is definitely not something that can be done by suicide, and it is obviously from the poisonous hands of outsiders.But when the incident happened, the scene was in chaos, and there was no way to track it down, so the death of the Holy Son became a strange mystery.

Compared with finding out the truth about Altos' death, the temple priests faced a more serious problem—they needed to decide who would be the next Son of God as soon as possible.

According to the usual practice, the Holy Son should be chosen by the God of Light, and the priests are ordered to search for it. However, when they went to the altar to ask the God of Light, they got an undecidable result. It seemed that their god was also wandering, not knowing How to choose the most suitable spokesperson for yourself from hundreds of millions of people.

The temple fell into a stalemate where it could not select the Holy Son, and was in a dilemma; on the other hand, Erxi was always waiting for news in order to prepare for the next mission.

【Is there really going to be a Holy Son candidate this time? ] Erxi asked the salvation system, [What if the God of Light decides a candidate directly, what should we do? 】

[There will definitely be. 】The world salvation system is full of confidence, 【Master Orderer, you just need to wait for the normal development of the world plot. 】

Seeing that the salvation system is so guaranteed, Erxi no longer worries.He is not in a hurry, because he knows that the temple will only be more anxious than himself: the news of Altos' serious injury not only caused an uproar in the human race, but also caused a lot of shock in the demon race. He even received a few days ago The third prince Suo Ke sent a secret message to ask him about this matter.

Erxi knew what the demon royal family was planning. They should have known from Soko that they could not get their help, but they still did not give up their coveting of the human territory. He restrained himself; now that Altos was seriously injured and dying, he must be even more ready to move. If he knew that the holy son had already passed away, he would send troops to fight him immediately.

So after weighing it again and again, Erxi still didn't tell the truth to Soko, and only said perfunctorily that he didn't know the details, so he didn't continue to contact the other party.

A few days later, one morning, Erxi suddenly received a summons from Zeqi, asking him to go to the Star Tower immediately.

***

Erxi was not the only one who received the dean's news. When Erxi walked into the dean's room, he saw that there were already four tutors standing inside, but except for Elena, Erxi was not very familiar with the other three teachers.All four of them held a piece of paper in their hands, and they were looking down at the content on the paper, with some dignified expressions and some surprised, but the atmosphere was undoubtedly solemn and serious.

"Teacher Er." Seeing Erxi coming in, Zeqi nodded to him, and handed over a piece of paper.

Ersie took it, and found that it was a list. After a rough scan, there were about a dozen names of students, some of whom Ersie knew and some he didn't know, but the thing that caught Ersie's attention the most was—this In this list, the names of Heluomi and Xin are both listed.

With a wave of Zeqi's hand, Erxi immediately felt a slight stagnation in the air - the dean actually opened another layer of enchantment alone. Obviously, what he will say next is very important, and no prying eyes are allowed with snooping.

The other four people also realized that the matter was of great importance, and they all turned pale, looking at Zeqi solemnly.

"I just received this list this morning." Zeqi straight to the point, "From the temple."

The corner of Ersie's eyes twitched, vaguely guessing something.

"You should all have heard about the fact that Altos, the holy son of the human race, is seriously ill." Zeqi glanced at Erxi calmly - among these people, only Erxi was present when the incident happened, so he knew that Altos was actually Those who stopped breathing on the spot, others still thought that Altos was just seriously ill. "The current situation of His Highness the Holy Son is probably not optimistic, so the temple has decided: start the selection of the next Holy Son now."

"Selection?" One of the instructors who knew the situation of the temple was confused immediately, "Aren't all the holy sons of the past generations directly appointed by the God of Light? Still need to be selected?"

Zeqi shook his head: "I'm not too sure about the specific situation, maybe this selection is also the will of the God of Light." He flicked the list in his hand lightly, "You should have guessed it, the people on this list are Our academy wants to send people to the temple to participate in the selection of the Holy Son. This is directly determined by the temple. We have no right to refuse, and neither do the selected ones—everyone must participate in this selection, and the five of you I will be responsible for escorting these students to the temple, I trust each of you, I hope you can pay attention to this matter, let these students go and return safe and sound."

Zeqi paused slightly, and added: "We are not the only academy that was recruited. The other eight human academies visited by the temple visiting group also received selection invitations, so your trip this time is not only for the students. Escorts are also defenders of the academy's image, no matter what the selection result is, at least they can't let us be talked about, especially... in front of certain academies."

There is also competition among human colleges, especially among the top colleges. Every year, there is a lot of quarrels over the competition for students, and there are many cases of secret enmity.Erxi didn't quite understand the grievances involved, but seeing the faces of the four mentors showing the same hatred, they must have absolutely hoped that they would not be defeated during the gathering of the nine academies.

"What's the point of this selection?" Ersey asked.

Zeqi shook his head: "They didn't say anything."

"Is the selection this time to directly select the Holy Son?" Erxi asked again.

Zeqi frowned: "No, it seems that it is only the selection of candidates for the Holy Son. But the temple did not say how many candidates will be selected, but I guess the number should not be many, and the final candidate for the Holy Son is very likely to be selected. It may be that the God of Light selects from among these candidates."

I see……

Erxi thought to himself: So, his task is to make Heluomi successfully advance to one of those candidates in this selection?

***

The departure date is set in three days, and because this matter needs to be kept absolutely confidential, everyone needs to leave quietly at night.

On the student side, Zeqi also specially called together more than a dozen people on the list, talked about it seriously, and asked them to get ready.

Probably Zeqi emphasized the confidentiality of this matter, so during the three days of waiting, Heluomi and Xin did not disclose this matter to Erxi, but only euphemistically said that they had accepted the mission and would leave for a while .

"Oh, yes." Ersie nodded solemnly, "Be careful on the road."

Xin didn't respond any more, but Heluomi raised his eyebrows subtly after receiving such a reply from Erxi.

"Teacher, aren't you curious what task I'm going to do?" he asked.

"Not curious." Ersey answered simply.

Heluomi immediately frowned and stared at Erxi for a while.

"Teacher, you won't be able to see me for a while, and you still feel very happy in your heart?"

"Huh? Am I that obvious?" Ersie immediately touched his face.

Hei Luomi: "..."

Seeing the man's depressed expression, Erxi endured a lot of effort not to laugh—it's not too much for this guy to tease him all the time, right?

It's a pity that Ersie didn't get complacent for too long. Just when he was about to speak to drive away the man, his collar was suddenly pulled, and the man's fiery kiss fell on his lips.

Hei Luomi has not done this kind of thing for a long time, and because he has behaved very normally recently, Erxi subconsciously let down his vigilance, unexpectedly...

Although Ersey immediately kicked the guy aside and mended him hard, he still felt that he had lost a lot.

No, it is a big loss! !

"Heilomi!!!" Erxi yelled angrily, "Why are you so crazy!!"

"Since you hate me so much, teacher, it won't matter if you hate me a little more." Hei Luomi calmly flicked the dust off her body, and smiled.

"And I haven't seen the teacher for so long, and if I don't leave some memories, I will be very sad."

As a result, the next night, Hei Luomi was in the starting line and saw that familiar figure again.

"Teacher?" Hei Luomi was obviously taken aback, "Why are you here?"

Ersie rolled his eyes at him and didn't want to speak at all.

"Could it be that you are one of the leading mentors this time?"

If it hadn't been for the forced kiss before, Erxi should be very proud to scare this person at this time, but now... he is so depressed that he just wants to vomit blood.

The smile on the corner of Heluomi's mouth gradually widened, and he gently stroked his lips with his fingers suggestively, and smiled slightly.

"So it seems that I have made money, teacher?"

Ersie: "..."

Probably this is called cheating people instead of being cheated.

Damn it, he shouldn't have challenged the bottom line of this man's hooliganism! !

***

in endless darkness.

The Lich King slowly opened his eyes, those strange pupils of different colors were in a trance for a moment, and then looked into the void with a bit of bitter coldness.

He has been sleeping here for a long time.

In the incident five years ago, not only did he fail to snatch the artifact of time, but he also lost a clone, which severely injured his vitality—unlike ordinary liches, the Lich King does not have a box of life, but divides his soul into In every avatar of oneself.The avatar trapped in the space crack has been completely destroyed in the turbulent flow of time and space. Because of the large loss of power, he had to sleep and recuperate here. Until today, he was awakened by that voice again.

[I need your assistance. 】

He heard the voice from the void say.

"I haven't settled with you for what happened before." The Lich King sneered, with murderous intent in his eyes, "You still dare to come to me again?"

【This is the last time. ] said the voice.

【Soon, everything will be over.And the wish you prayed for will also be fulfilled together. 】

The Lich King fell silent.

He is actually a very suspicious person. If he hadn't really seen this person's power beyond his own understanding, he would definitely not follow the other person's request to find the time artifact.But the other party's proposal really touched his heart, and it was miraculous. Even though he was still on guard in his heart, he instinctively felt that the other party was not lying. This time... maybe he could really achieve his wish.

"But I didn't get the artifact of time." The Lich King said in a deep voice.

[But it has already appeared in this world after all. 】The voice said, the words are full of confidence and determination, 【The one who owns it is on our side. 】

The Lich King pondered for a long time.

He has rarely longed for something so strongly in his life, but he wants to achieve that thing no matter what.

No, it should be said that it was his wish and ambition that he was absolutely unwilling to give up and retreat, even if he spent his entire life in poverty.

"Okay." Finally, he nodded slightly.

"I'll trust you again, and it's... the last time."
