Chapter 22—The Chosen One

The divine calendar is 5539 years.

The Eastern Continent, a great country.

Wanzhang Kingdom was originally one of the dozens of kingdoms in the Eastern Continent.

But since the war broke out in previous years, Wanzhangguo has inevitably been involved in the war.

Although food production has also been reduced, fishing and hunting are also a large part of the food source because Wanzhang Country is close to the sea.

Therefore, the relatively wealthy country has the smallest internal crisis and has not encountered internal rebellion.

However, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind keeps on

In these troubled times, the richer you are, the more you will be thorny in the eyes and flesh of others.

Several forces began to attack the country from all directions.

The old king of Wanzhang Kingdom died in the process of resisting foreign enemies, and his son was also defeated and killed.

Subsequently, the only 18-year-old daughter Heng Rui took over the power of the old king and became the queen of the country.

Although Hengrui is capable, he also has tenacious fighting spirit.

But many things are often not shifted by personal will.

The enemy's forces are very strong, and they have united with each other.

In the face of absolute strength, Hengrui lost again and again, and retreated again and again.

The country's territory has been compressed.

Two years later, the area of ​​Wanzhangguo has shrunk several times.

Only Wanzhang Wangcheng is still stubbornly resisting desperately.

It has not been broken by the enemy for a long time.

.................

The enemy troops outside the king's city were once again preparing to attack the city.

Above the city wall, you can see the enemy's intensive deployment of supplies, bird dragons, pterosaurs, ankylosaurus, and giant beasts rushing to the battlefield one by one.

Pieces of huge stones were also transported by the enemy from distant mountains.

The Great Hall of the King's Palace.

The ministers were anxious.

Some ministers reported:

"My lord, the enemy has dispatched a large number of flying dinosaurs and ankylosaurus from nowhere. There are dozens of them. They are urgently cutting the rocks of Wugong Mountain. It seems that they are about to attack the royal city."

Henrui's complexion was solemn.

In the past two years, the reason why the king's city has not been breached is because the number of giant beasts on both sides is almost the same.

The enemy forces did not gain absolute superiority in numbers.

Now that the enemy has been replenished, the gap between strength and weakness has suddenly appeared.

The queen was silent, but the people below were about to jump.

"My lord, what should we do?"

A minister asked again.

Heng Rui sighed imperceptibly, and then...

She shook her head helplessly, and said weakly:

"I do not know either."

"The King..."

Although the enemy is very strong, the resistance over the past two years has come down.

Qunchen still has certain confidence in Hengrui.

Now even the queen doesn't know what to do.

It shows that Wanzhang Kingdom is really at the end of the road.

"My lord, it's better... we, surrender?"

A highly respected minister said these words with difficulty.

Heng Rui didn't say a word, her expression still solemn.

When the officials saw someone taking the lead, others also came forward:

"Yes, my lord, the enemy has promised that if we surrender, we won't kill me, so why don't you... surrender!"

"My lord, now the enemy is so powerful that I can no longer fight against him. After surrendering, he can still save his life, but if he resolutely does not surrender, once the city is broken, the lord, including me, will lose all lives."

.............

In the hall, the voice of the surrender faction has become the absolute mainstream.

Henrui's complexion became more and more painful.

"The king, please make it clear."

"Sooner rather than later, please make the decision sooner."

"I wonder if the king has any concerns?"

...........

The group of ministers was almost forced to question.

Heng Rui shook her head and finally spoke.

"Can't surrender, I will not sit and watch the temple of the father being looted by the enemy."

"If the majesty of the Father is damaged, as a descendant of the Heng family, what face do I dare to believe in the Father again? Dare to face the ancestors of my Heng family?"

As soon as he said this, the court was silent.

Because the ancestors of the Heng family believed in the Father God, they decided to follow King Huang to conquer the heresy and punish the evil god.

At that time, God the Father lay down the punishment and completely destroyed the impossible Western Church of God.

Because of her piety, Yanli was gifted by God the Father to enjoy another lifetime.

The ancestors of the Heng family witnessed the whole process.

Back in the tribe, Heng's faith in God the Father was extremely firm.

Therefore, the Heng family's devotion to God the Father has never waned for thousands of years.

After the turbulent times came, Hengjia was also one of the few countries in the Eastern Continent that did not plunder and requisition the Father's Church.

On the contrary, God the Father taught that sacrificial worship deeply understands the truth that there is no end to the egg under the cover of the nest.

Take the initiative to cooperate with the king, open a warehouse to release grain, help the people, and treat the wounded.

Unlike the enemy forces, they are cruel and easy to kill, and have looted several temples of the Father.

Faced with such a blasphemy of the Father and bloodthirsty and murderous people, Heng Rui could only resist desperately.

Now that I really can't resist it, what Heng Rui is most worried about is that the majesty of the father is being desecrated again.

This goes against the consciousness that she has been instilled in the concept of the supremacy of God the Father since she was a child.

The court was silent for a long time, and a minister said:

"Why don't we send envoys to negotiate. If we surrender the whole country, they can't plunder the temple of the father?"

"Yes, the proposal is very good. We can negotiate with the enemy and they will definitely agree."

"Now surrendering is the only way to preserve the temple of the father. If we do not surrender and lose the battle, the temple of the father will definitely be looted."

The ministers again agreed and suggested surrender.

However, Heng Rui shook her head firmly.

"The enemy is a blasphemer, and I cannot surrender to the blasphemer, and go with the enemy."

Seeing that the queen was determined not to surrender, the officials were anxious.

"My lord, please think twice. It is possible to preserve the temple of the father if you surrender, but once we are defeated, not only will we die, but the temple of the father will never be spared."

Heng Rui's eyes became firmer and firmer.

She looked up at the sky outside the hall with beautiful eyes, and said firmly again:

"I won't surrender. I can't choose victory or defeat, but I can choose not to surrender to those blasphemers."

"Even if I really lose, it is due to fate. I will stick to it until the last moment. God the Father will never blame me."

"The blasphemer can be arrogant for a while, but I deeply believe that the great Father God will punish these blasphemers after all."

"Because my ancestors witnessed and experienced it with their own eyes."

................................

After the meeting is over.

Hengrui walked to the Temple of the Father in the royal city.

Although her will is firm, her heart is very painful.

War is cruel and merciless.

The defeat of Wanzhangguo now seems inevitable.

Maybe a few days later, the prosperous temple of the Father will be reduced to ruins.

The majesty of the Father will be desecrated.

Inside the temple.

Heng Rui looked at the majestic and solemn statue of God the Father, kneeling on both knees, bowing down in prayer.

There were two lines of clear tears in her eyes, and she began to sob and cry.

It's like a weak and helpless child finally met a loving and compassionate elder.

...............

The second watch is sent, and there is a third watch in the morning.
