The Amecia Plane has many strange and treacherous geographical environments, but the most spectacular natural scenery among them must be the Lost Stone Forest. The Lost Stone Forest is an area of thousands of square kilometers, all of which is filled with towering stone pillars of irregular shapes. Most of the stone pillars have a specific structure that is thick at the top and bottom and thin in the middle, and the wind shuttling between the stone pillars is a strong storm. Due to the strong wind, only demonic beasts above the fourth order can survive normally within the range of the Lost Stone Forest.

It is said that a large area of the Lost Stone Forest was originally a huge plateau thousands of years ago, with a mild climate and abundant aquatic plants. This strong wind has only been blowing since the god of the storm established a temple here. The eternal wind is like a knife and axe, gradually weathering the plateau that was originally a whole into the current scene of thousands of stone forests. And now in the center of the stone forest, there is the largest stone pillar, the size of the stone pillar can already be called a rampart, and above the rampart that rises out of thin air is the main city where the Temple of the Storm is located, St. Cilesson.

At this time, somewhere in the Lost Stone Forest, a tall irregular stone pillar broke into several pieces and lay on the ground, next to it was a deep pit with a radius of more than ten meters. At the edge of the pit, Darko gradually recovered from his vertigo and scrambled up from the ground, barely casting himself a water-based nourishment spell. Due to the high speed of the fall, the impact force was absorbed by his body when he collided with the ground, and his bones and muscles were strained to varying degrees. With such an internal injury, it is useless to use hydrotherapy, and he can only sacrifice his half-baked nourishment technique.

Nourishment is a fourth-level water-based magic, and it is one of the more effective healing spells. Compared to hydrotherapy, which can only heal skin injuries, nourishing surgery acts on the body, using water magic to relieve injuries in the body, and at the same time, it can also promote blood circulation to a certain extent and accelerate the body's self-recovery. However, this kind of magic that relies on accelerating physiological functions to heal injuries is essentially overdrawing physical energy, so when he was on the Mercury plane, Darko rarely used this magic during the VitB12 marathon pursuit, so that it is very rusty to use now.

In fact, only the green magic does not have any side effects in the healing, not only can it treat injuries, but also enhance the vitality of the body, and the eighth-level green magic life salute even has the effect of regenerating severed limbs. But Darko is not a green mage, and he can't think of a green mage to heal him, so he can only support himself.

Beside Darko, Otto patted the dust on his body, stretched his muscles again, and climbed a stone pillar more than twenty meters high next to him to explore the surrounding terrain. He was the main victim of the impact when he fell, but at this point it seemed that nothing had happened, and Darko even suspected that even without his own qi magic, Otto would fall unharmed. For such a result, he could only secretly marvel at the shield warrior's super defense, as well as the perverted physical fitness.

Dakko sorted out his appearance and thought about what he should do next. The first thing, of course, is to find Phyllis and tell the owner about his experience of the year. When Darko thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a pang of pride, and he felt very satisfied when he imagined the surprised eyes and worried expression of his master as he listened to his story.

Just where to find Phyllis?Magic Academy?Or the Dark Temple?Darko thought for a while, and decided to go to the Magic Academy first. Although it was a holiday, it was likely that Phyllis was doing experiments or preparing for classes at the academy. There was another reason why Darko was reluctant to go to the Dark Temple first, there were people like Selby who were unkind to him.

After a while, Darko had already figured out his next plan, only to find that Otto still hadn't come down from the pillar. Although it was only a meeting in the void, Otto's perfect defense and repeated way of handing over his back to Darko still made him very impressed, not to mention that the two were connected by a contract. After three more minutes of waiting, Otto was still silent. Strangely, Darko shouted upwards a few times, but Otto, who was supposed to be at the top of the pillar, still did not respond.

Darko immediately panicked, where did Otto go? Just now he saw Otto climb this stone pillar, and the warrior can't fly, so he must climb down before he can leave. Could it be that something has happened to him? Otto himself is a strong man at the level of a great swordsman, who can kill him quietly? Do you want to go up yourself? If someone can kill Otto, then he will also deliver food when he goes up, right?

Even Darko himself didn't realize that he was decisive and arbitrary on the Mercury plane, and after joining forces with a powerful shield warrior like Otto, his psychology also changed dramatically. Because he hid behind Otto in every battle, he subconsciously regarded Otto as his protector, and thus fell into a panic when he suddenly lost his opponent.

Dakko realized this immediately, took a deep breath, then regained his composure, and immediately made a decision. A light body spell was cast on his body, and he raised his head and prepared to climb the stone pillar. At this moment, a human head suddenly poked out from the edge of the stone pillar, and Darko sat on the ground in fright.

Darko took a closer look, and it was Otto who poked out the head. Then Otto jumped down at once, and the force of the fall raised a cloud of dust, and then came to Darko's side and said, "Let's go up and have a look, there seems to be a bit of excitement over there in the Temple of the Storm." ”

Listening to Otto's words, Darko was also very curious, completely threw away the previous panic, and hurriedly grabbed Otto. Otto climbed up with a vertical leap in the air rotation, although he did not have the blessing of Darko's light body technique, but the ascent speed was not slow at all. When the heavy shield is side-blocked on the stone pillar, it will rise a distance of several meters with the help of force.

After a while, the feeling of being down to earth came again, and Darko's eyes lit up, and he found that he had reached the top of the stone pillar. The sun overhead seemed to suddenly become a little bigger, sprinkling sunlight all over the plane of more than ten meters at the top of the stone pillar. Dakko found that from this angle, these huge stone pillars were like mushrooms, marking the former plateau with the plane at the top.

Otto walked to the edge of the pillar and pointed north, where the main temple of the storm was located. Dacko looked into the distance, and sure enough, he vaguely saw a majestic and majestic city. In the middle of the city, there was still a light that flickered from time to time, and it looked like a scene when the will of the gods descended.

"Over there is Saint-Cillés, from a vantage point where I could clearly see the blue and white splendor of the temple a few years ago, but now I have to look beyond it to see it. Otto held his fingers in the air and continued, "And the wind is much lighter, about half as much as normal, and there's a good chance something happened to the Temple of the Storm." ”

Darko was stunned for a moment, and also carefully felt the changes in the wind around him, although he didn't know the original wind strength, but he found that the wind speed was a little lower than when he just fell. Such a drastic weakening must not be gratuitous. Shocked, Darko was curious, "Otto, you seem to be familiar with this place, have you been to Saint-Celesson before?"

"That was a long time ago, and I happened to pass by here while wandering through the plane, so I came to take a look. Otto looked in the direction of Saint-Celesson and said with some excitement, "I'm going to come closer to see the excitement, do you want to come along?"

Darko found that Otto usually looked half-dead, and could only cheer up when he was fighting, but now that he saw the accident in the Storm Church, he immediately seemed to be a different person, typical of schadenfreude. He couldn't help but look at Otto with strange eyes, and his heart was speechless for a while.

Although Darko was also curious about what was happening in the Stormwind Church, he was even more eager to meet Phyllis, and of course he would not accompany Otto to see the excitement. He directly threw a few scrolls to Otto, "What do you see when others teach you your own things, and then you are arrested and imprisoned as a spy, I tell you that prison is not a fun place, and you have to ...... mining"

"Directional teleportation scrolls, you have such a thing, so much. Otto looked at Darko with a look of surprise.

"I forgot to tell you, I'm an inscriptioner. Well, although I haven't been certified by the Alchemy Guild, I can copy magic scrolls below level four. Darko scratched his head, he had neglected his auxiliary profession for the point of introducing himself to the point of forgetting his identity as an inscriptionist.

"The inscription master is really rich. Otto muttered and put the scroll into the spatial ring, "But this place is very close to the main temple of the storm, so it seems that the movement of space will be blocked, right?"

"Ahh

In order to prevent the enemy from using space movement for siege operations, the space near each important town is shielded, and only the return scroll using specific coordinates can return to the city. As a result, passers-by like Darko will also be affected when passing through the vicinity of St. Cilleson and will not be able to use the teleportation scroll.

"I guess the God of the Storm thinks this is his backyard too?" Otto shrugged indifferently and pointed in the direction of Saint Cillessen, "Why don't we go and see the excitement, and by the way, ask if we can borrow their teleportation array." ”

"Uh......" Darko was speechless. Although Otto found an excuse to borrow the teleportation array, Darko knew that he still wanted to see the excitement a little more.

Darko didn't have a good impression of the Church of the Gods, because he had unpleasant memories of his interactions with various churches in the past. He was afraid that he would encounter inexplicable fanatical believers in the Storm Church and hunt them down as heretics.

Darko was hesitating, when he suddenly saw a group of centaurs running from the direction of Saint-Cillesen, this group of centaurs were all white armor with cyan lines painted on them, they were extremely fast, and they did not know what was important.

"It's the Storm-Eyed Knights of the Church of the Storm, why don't they stay inside the temple and guard, what are they running out for?" Otto muttered to himself in surprise, seeing Darko's puzzled look on the side, he explained, "The eye of the storm is the center of a strong hurricane that occurs in the ocean, and it is a calm area in the midst of a hurricane. ”

"I know this!" Darko was so angry that he almost jumped to his feet, "Of course I know what the eye of the storm is, but what does it have to do with this group of knights?"

"Listen to me. Otto paused before continuing, "The Church of the Storm named its Templars after the eye of the storm, implying that the main temple of the Church is located in a whirlpool, but it can remain peaceful forever. The Eye of the Wind Knight is a force specifically responsible for guarding the main temple of the Storm, and they are all composed of the most elite knights, all of whom have reached the advanced level, and they are well-equipped, and their real combat power is even close to the level of the Great Samurai. At the same time, they are also the most devout of the cultists, and they will never die in the hunt for any heresy. ”

After listening to Otto's words, Darko finally understood the situation, it seems that the Eye Knights of the Storm Church are equivalent to the existence of the Holy Radiance Knights of the Church of Light, and they are composed of the most devout believers of the gods, because of the double restrictions on faith and rank, the number of this group of knights has never exceeded two hundred in the Church of Light, and presumably the Storm Church will not be more. These people should have spent most of their time guarding the main temple, so why did they run so far away from St. Ceraisson?

Darko was wondering to himself when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a vague figure flickering between the stone pillars standing somewhere. It was so fast that he couldn't tell if it was a human or a monster with his eyesight. Darko looked in the direction of the knights' pursuit, and it was towards the location where the figure appeared, could it be that so many knights with the eye of the storm were chasing that figure?

The speed of that figure had long exceeded the limit of running, and it was obviously flying at a low altitude, and it seemed that it was flying low with the cover of the stone forest in order to avoid the sight of the pursuers behind it. Darko was puzzled again, although there were many Eye Riders in the rear, they were obviously not of high rank, and there were no ones who could use the levitation technique. Why didn't that figure fly high in the air, but shuttle between the stone forests?

With doubts, Darko opened the pupil of cause and effect, followed the guidance of the cause and effect connection, and carefully probed the position in front of the direction of the figure, and sure enough, he immediately saw that the figure disappeared in a flash.

"It's her!" Darko exclaimed.
