Chapter 218 Roundtable Conference
Ergal crawled on the ground, looking up at the huge monster that appeared in the sky.
"Ah, this power, how beautiful, how charming, yes, this is the real power I have been pursuing."
The appearance of the Nether Bone Dragon Knight deeply stimulated Ergal, and he kept kowtowing like a devout believer.
Every time he knocked his head down, there would be a dull 'bang! ' sound on the ground, and the ground would tremble, which showed how much force he used.
"Great Demon God, the Supreme Lord, please accept my loyalty. I, Ergal, swear here that you will be my lifelong faith. I will follow you throughout my life and become your sharpest claw!"
At this time, Ergal had already forgotten about Barbatos and the destroyed demon summoning circle. He saw the true peak, a great existence that surpassed any god. This person was the one worthy of his lifelong dedication.
He firmly believed that it must be fate that he met this adult at this moment.
Even if they followed Barbatos to fight in this world thousands of years ago, it must have been for this moment today.
Ergal's whole body and mind were trembling with excitement.
"Get up and follow me."
The Dullahan's voice rang out, making Urgal ecstatic.
The bone dragon flapped its wings and flew away, with a black cloud following closely behind it.
A blurry video was playing on a huge wall screen.
The two terrifying figures in the film are in the midst of a fierce battle.
Although the image is not clear, the specific appearance of the two fighting parties can still be distinguished.
One was a ten-winged fallen angel wearing dragon armor, and the other was a headless knight dressed in black. These two extraordinary warriors were fighting back and forth in the dark.
Looking through the screen, one can imagine how terrifying the destructive power generated by the punches and kicks is.
And when Diesel summoned the 'Fallen Angel Realm' and used all his strength to cast the 'Fallen Angel's Fall', the breathing sounds in the hall became much more disordered.
It seemed that some people were shocked by this scene.
Even more shocking things are yet to come. After being hit by Diesel, the headless knight was engulfed in flames, but not long after, he walked out of the sea of fire unscathed.
Such a scene finally made the most stable people a little uneasy.
However, the picture on the wall did not stop until the Headless Knight took out his bayonet and shot Diesel to death. Then the image came to an abrupt end.
"Die well!"
After Diesel's death, someone couldn't help but yell out loudly. Suddenly, a cold gaze was directed at him, and a slightly cold girl's voice sounded: "Genos, what are you doing? This is a round table meeting!"
Genos, who was named by the Saint, immediately wilted. Facing the Saint's questioning, he could only smile awkwardly.
The other knights knew Genos's temperament very well and were no longer surprised to see him like this. If the Saint was not his biological sister, no one in the entire Holy See would be able to control this erratic guy.
"Lady Saint, although it may be a bit rude, I still want to ask, are the things happening in this video real?" A knight two seats away from Genos raised his hand and asked his question.
Saint Jervini's expression improved a little. She glared at her brother and replied, "Knight Lanster, I can guarantee that the image just now is absolutely true and reliable. Everyone in the capital of the Kendenia Empire saw this scene that night."
That's right, the video that was played in front of the Knights of the Round Table was the video of Diesel fighting against Gaia, the Nether Bone Dragon Knight. That day, many people in the imperial capital used video magic to record this scene.
It is really easy to get one of them with the power of the Holy See.
After receiving this video, Saint Jevnie, who was originally skeptical about the news, immediately contacted all the Knights of the Round Table and started this round table meeting.
All thirteen Knights of the Round Table of the Holy See were present, sitting around a simple round table made of neither gold nor iron, and watched the video.
This round table is no ordinary round table. It is rumored that it is a divine relic made by the God of Heaven himself. Its real name is unknown. No one has been able to move it since the founding of the Holy See. It is said that only those who are recognized by it are qualified to use this divine relic.
In addition to the round table, the room at the end of the temple also has statues of six archangels inlaid around it. Each statue is like a living creature, and even retains a trace of angelic breath, as if a real archangel has descended.
Every time a round table meeting is held, major events that can affect the human kingdom are discussed. Saint Jevonne believes that the events that took place in the Kendenia Empire this time are enough for her to use her saintly authority to convene a round table meeting.
When hearing the Saint's words of affirmation, Lanster, the second seat at the Round Table, moved his eyes, but said nothing more. He believed that it was impossible for the Saint to lie at this time.
Even though the image just now was too unbelievable, he had no choice but to accept it.
Saint Jervini said: "The reason why the Ten-Winged Fallen Angel Diesel appeared in the Kendenia Empire is very clear. It is because not long ago, the people of the Black Heaven released three fallen angels led by Korthius and used the highest-level summoning crystal to control them, which angered the leader of the Fallen Angels, Iblis, so he sent him for revenge."
"As for the Nether Bone Dragon Knight Gaia who killed him, I have searched through all the books left by the saints of the Holy Church, but I have never seen any record of him."
"That Bone Dragon Knight was able to take Diesel's fatal move and kill him with one shot. His power may even surpass that of God." A knight said solemnly.
"Raven, you are blaspheming God!" Another knight immediately accused him.
"Ayewen, I'm telling the truth." Facing his companions' accusations, Raven, the ninth seat of the round table, did not get angry. He said calmly, "Even God can't kill a ten-winged fallen angel with one move. He is one of the highest fallen angels, second only to the archangels."
Ayewen, the third seat of the Round Table, is the one with the deepest faith among the Knights of the Round Table. In his mind, God must never be blasphemed, even by his fellow Knights of the Round Table.
However, it was difficult for him to refute Raven's words, and reason told him that Raven was not wrong.
But even so, the contempt for God in Raven's words still made him snort.
"Looks like it's my fault again." Genos grinned. This time even he, who had a thick skin like a city wall, felt a little ashamed. If he had stopped the action of 'Black Heaven' at the beginning, Diesel would not have appeared.
Seeing her brother admit his mistake, Saint Jevini's always cold gaze finally softened a little.
"It's not all your fault. It was my poor judgment that led to the seal being opened. I will share the punishment with you this time."
"Sister, you." Genos widened his eyes.
"Shut up and don't call me sister now." Genos was interrupted by Saint Jevonne before he could finish his words.
She forbad Genos to call her sister in such situations.
When Genos shut up, the person sitting at the top seat at the round table finally spoke.
"Compared to Diesel and Nether Bone Dragon Knight Gaia, I care more about the silver adventurer named 'Luo Qiu'."
