Chapter 417: The Current Situation of the Dark Sanctuary

Eastern Black Wind Territory (i.e., part of Black Wind City in Black Wind Territory), Ancient Boat Village.

Guchuan Village is just an inconspicuous small fishing village under the rule of Black Wind City, with a population of about three hundred people, and the official road leading to Black Wind City is about forty miles long. Facing the rhinoceros horn sea, in addition to cultivating the little land at home, the villagers mainly make a living by fishing, and occasionally go to the city to do some helpers, like their ancestors, living a life of sunrise and sunset, although busy, but also fulfilling. Especially after Viscount Leitch took over the city of Black Wind, various taxes have been greatly reduced, and the lives of the villagers are gradually improving.

What the villagers of Guchuan Village don't know is that under the calm sea next to the village, inside a huge hollow tree stump, there is a rapidly rising assassin organization - the Dark Sanctuary!

Today's sanctuary is very different from the original vampire lair - after passing through the stump, there is a cave hall with an area of about 150 square meters, and the lower left of the cave hall (based on the entrance to the door) is a slope-shaped plateau, which has been transformed into a nursery, on which various alchemical materials with short growth cycles and highly poisonous alchemy are planted, such as grimace mushrooms, devil ferns, and so on.

In the upper left, there is a withered old tree, its gray bark full of wrinkles, and its bare branches hanging low weakly, looking like a dying old man, with a hint of solitary poignancy in the dead silence.

And in the upper right, there is a waterhole of more than 20 square meters, in the waterhole stands a tall stone sculpture nearly three meters high, the stone sculpture is wearing an ordinary assassin leather armor, wearing an assassin hood, and it is impossible to see the true face - this stone sculpture is a full-scale model of the father of fear carved by Martin!

The Hall of the Cave, named by Martin, has a passage on the left and right sides. According to the original planning of Leitch, the right side of the hall should be the practice room, and now there is indeed a practice room with a width of nearly 100 square meters, which contains practice equipment such as dummies, arrow stacks, hanging piles, etc.;

Enter from the left side of the Hall of Dread, and the first thing you will come to is the Sanctuary Cafeteria. It is said to be a restaurant, but in fact there are two long tables that are 25 meters long, each of which can seat 5o people at the same time. On the walls of the dining room hung several square flags with black backgrounds and bloody handprints—these were the symbols of the Dark Sanctuary, the Bloody Hand Banner!

At the back of the dining room, there are three passages, the left passage leads to the kitchen, the alchemy room, and the enchantment room, the central passage is the bedroom of the ordinary Dark Apostles, with a total of eight large rooms, which can accommodate nearly a hundred Apostles, and the right passage is the bedrooms of the Dark Sanctuary leaders, each of whom has a separate bedroom, currently occupied by Angus the Listener, Brian the Adjudicator, and Martin the Preacher.

Normally, the sanctuary was still relatively deserted, and the apostles who stayed in the sanctuary for the time being, except for those who were on missions, perhaps because of the Assassins, did not communicate much with each other. Even if they do have occasional conversations, they often talk about things that make ordinary people feel creepy - such as the various tragic events of the criminal before his death, the strange methods of killing, the highly toxic effects of a new alchemical potion, etc., in short, some fairly specialized topics......

However, at this moment, it is undoubtedly quite rare that all the members of the Dark Sanctuary are gathered in front of the statue of the Father of Fear, except for those who are unable to return in time from a mission.

Standing at the head of the line are none other than the three leaders of the Dark Sanctuary, from left to right: Angus the Listener, Brian the Judge, and Martin the Preacher.

Angus and Martin, both of whom are dressed in black robes, though the slight difference is that Angus's robes resemble mage robes, while Martin's is closer to the priest's robes. The latter is looser than the previous one, especially the sleeves, the sleeves of the priest's robe are extremely long, and a random swing can set off a gust of wind, and the mage's long sleeves are undoubtedly afraid that he will not die fast enough due to his daily magic experiments, so the sleeves of the mage's robe are tight.

In addition, Angus wears a jet-black hood all day long, showing only a thin lip, which makes people feel a little gloomy when he looks at it, and Martin, he almost never wears a hat, because in Martin's concept, if you can't be honest with the believers, how can you convince the other party?!

As for Brian, he was almost always wearing a tight-fitting assassin leather armor and carrying two swords behind his back. Like Martin, many of the apostles in the sanctuary never saw him wearing a hat. But unlike Martin, who often has an amiable smile on his face, Brian has always been a cold look, with the narrow scar that crossed his left eye, silver pupils, and silver head, I have to say that Brian is very masculine;

Behind the three Brians, divided into five columns, stood nearly fifty dark apostles. Judging from the attire of these dark apostles, it can be understood that although the Night Blade occupies nearly half of it, it also includes mages, star soul warriors and other types of awakened people, and even orc sacrifices with a height of two meters and two, dwarven warriors with double-sided axes, elven rangers with enchanted longbows on their backs, and even a shark man with a gill crack on his face!

Being able to spread the reputation of the Dark Sanctuary in such a short period of more than a year (although not widely) in the countries of the Valley of the Dawn, but also gathered so many elites shows the ability of the three Brians!

However, behind the growing prosperity of the Dark Sanctuary, there is also a huge crisis hidden - as the Dark Sanctuary leader, the strength of the three Brian is too weak! The three of them only have the strength of the second order at present, but among the many dark apostles, they are extraordinary elites of the third and fourth orders, and even a few of them have powerful strength as high as the fifth order!

These fifth-order, one is a shark man with gray skin, Ankud, who has an abnormal strange power, even if it is just using the power of the flesh, he can easily blow up a star soul warrior of the same level!

One is the orc sacrifice to Arutonga, with his height of two meters two, even if he is placed among the orcs, he belongs to the strong category; but he did not follow the path of a warrior, but became an orc sacrifice, and it is also an extremely rare ancestor sacrifice - the announcement summons the soul of the ancestor to fight for himself! In a mission, after the assassination failed, Brian and Arutonga were surrounded by enemies, but in the end, Arutonga simply relied on the souls of three ancestors to directly slaughter the entire camp and nearly 300 people!

There is also a master alchemist Karlock, although he almost never goes out on missions, all the alchemical potions used by the Dark Sanctuary are from Karlock! Although many of the apostles do not know the origin of Karlock, no one doubts that he is a talented alchemist, because almost every once in a while, Karlock will research a new type of poison!

It is inevitable that where there are people, there will be fighting, and the same is true of the Dark Sanctuary. Although for various reasons, Karok, Arutonga and the others will join the Dark Sanctuary, but let them be led by three weaklings who are obviously inferior to themselves, even if they don't say it on the surface, they will secretly be more or less unhappy.

Fortunately, as an alchemist, he also has a very outstanding talent, except for his daily routine, he spends almost all of his time in the alchemy room, and he never ignores the daily life of the Dark Sanctuary, so it can be said that he is absolutely alone.

But Ankud and Arutonga are different, whether they are sharks or orcs, they are extremely aggressive races, and they believe that the strong are respected! Therefore, for the orders of the three Angus trios, who are obviously inferior to themselves, the two have always been yang and yin, and under the appeal of the strong, they have also gathered a considerable number of dark apostles around them. But perhaps out of fear of the mysterious Father of Fear, or something else, although the two of them often engage in small actions in secret, and even occasionally slap the face of the three Angus in person, but in general, the Dark Sanctuary can still maintain peace on the surface. However, if this continues for a long time, it will be a matter of time before the Angus trio are replaced.

Angus and the three naturally saw this clearly. But what puzzled Ankud and Arutonga was that the three of Angus had always turned a deaf ear to this, and that the orders of the cloth were regularly distributed, and the rewards and punishments that should be given were never delayed, and the three of them had never taken any measures to save the secret division of the Dark Sanctuary!

Could it be that the three of them know that they can't do anything, so they are indifferent? Or do the three of them have a strong reliance that they don't know?!

Today, all the dark apostles who remained in the sanctuary suddenly received a strange order to gather in the Hall of Fear!

Despite the doubts in their heads, many of the apostles still gathered in the Hall of Fear according to the order, although many of them did not accept the three of Angus, but at least, the three of them are still the leaders of the Dark Sanctuary at present!

"Angus, you summoned us over, shouldn't this be how we stand stupidly?" Seeing that the Dark Apostle had arrived, but Angus and the others did not give the next instructions, Arugus and the others immediately asked the three of them dissatisfied, and at the same time, they did not necessarily mean to embarrass the three of Angus.

"It's like as long as you're on your knees, you're not stupid. Ankud, who was next to Arrutonga, said in a weird way, he didn't do this to maintain the dignity of the three Angus, but he always liked to work against Arutonga.

"You?!" Arutonga glared at Ankud, secretly annoyed that this guy was such an idiot - if it weren't for this bastard's constant confrontation with him, he would have been one of the Templar leaders, if not the only one!

"Get down on your knees. At this moment, everyone suddenly heard Angus say lightly.

"What?!" Arutonga almost thought he had misheard—how dare this ant-like creature make himself kneel?

Especially when he saw Ankud and his faction staring at him with a kind of playful gaze, this couldn't help but make Arutong's face redden! But just as he was about to confront Angus, he saw Angus and Brian suddenly kneel down on one knee towards the stone statue of the Father of Fear!

This scene puzzled many dark apostles, but it didn't take long for nearly half of the apostles to kneel, leaving only the members of the Arutonga and Ankud lines, as well as Karok, who were still standing, looking at Angus and the others who were kneeling on the ground.

Just as Arutonga wanted to ask, the waterhole with the stone statue of the Father of Fear was boiling inexplicably, and the stone statue of the Father of Fear suddenly melted like a melted wax figure!
