Act III: The Journey (Part II)
The first thing that catches your eye is the dark brown rocks.
Rocks float in the air, birds can be seen nesting in them, like an upside-down tricorne, and the island levitates above the sparkling lake with a breathtaking grandeur.
Then there is the grass above the rocks.
At the edge of the island, turquoise grass and low shrubs cover the rocks, creating a vibrant scene.
Further into the middle of the island, there are towering buildings made of white masonry, and the most striking thing is the tower in the middle of the island.
The heavy, long bell ringing at noon resounded throughout the field, making the island floating in mid-air even more solemn.
There are two most famous floating islands on the continent, one of which is the Sky Castle where the Rainbow Tower is located, which is the crystallization of human ingenuity.
The other is Arashigaoka Ramirez, known as the manifestation of the goddess's creativity, and it is also the strongest force on the continent, where the base camp of the Sanctuary is located.
"A dark wizard and a skeleton visit the Great Sanctuary of Ramirez, if not to mention no one else, at least no one has ever done it before. ”
Rosen said playfully, watching the island get closer and closer, and the great shadows in the sun deepened.
"Your Majesty, are you worried?"
Lisa asked, neither she nor Rosen were at the silver level, and although she could feel that Rosen was faintly showing signs of a breakthrough recently, it was indeed a little inadequate to face the Inquisitors in the Sanctuary.
The Inquisitor is a fighting force directly under the Archbishop's command, and the most mysterious organization within the Templar.
The fighting forces within the Templar are divided into several factions, including the Inquisition to sweep away the infidels, the Demon Inquisition to fight the Chaos Monsters, the Xenomorph Inquisition to hunt all kinds of anomalous creatures, and the Combat Priest as a regular military force, and the Inquisitors, a force that is always hidden in the shadows.
The number of Inquisitors is unknown, the composition is unknown, the manner of action is unknown, and even the existence of the Inquisitors is questionable, but anyone who has dealt with the Templars for some time knows that the Inquisitors do exist.
And the only perception of the Inquisitor by the outside world should be that the existence that can become the Inquisitor is a character who is recognized by a certain holy relic, and his strength is extraordinary, and he will not be weaker than the Golden Rank, and this force is also one of the capitals of the Holy Church to gain a foothold in the world.
"Worried? No, I'm not worried. ”
Rosen shook his head.
Not only did he represent Isrul on this trip, but he also had the sincerity of the allies of the Ancient Covenant, and as long as the Templars were not arrogant enough to try to confront the entire world, then they would not dare to touch Lawson in the slightest.
What's more, Rosen is also preparing to start the live broadcast, completely presenting this incomparably mysterious place in the eyes of the world in front of ordinary people, and he is not worried that the Holy Temple will dare to do anything unfavorable to him.
Moreover, after Rosen, representatives of many other forces will also visit Ramirez, and in full view of everyone, the archbishop must also know some measure.
"It's just that I'm looking forward to the next journey. ”
Rosen replied.
Indeed, for Rosen, the Ramirez Chapel is not only the center of faith of the Templar, but also the resting place of the last Sage, and Ain Grancher, who was freed from his tragic fate because of Rosen's activity, also sleeps somewhere in the Ramirez Chapel.
Eventually, through contact, Rosen learns that Irandall has also traveled to Ramirez after separating from them.
It can be said that on the next journey, Lawson should be able to meet many acquaintances who have been separated for a long time.
The carriage stopped when Ramirez was already in the middle of the sky, and the coachman said that there was a sanctuary that he had to dismount and walk on, so he took Rosen's money and left, giving Lisa a second glance as he left.
Glancing at the faint black dot in the sky next to the dazzling sun, Lawson took a step forward and stepped into the so-called "sanctuary".
Buzz –
Almost at the same time, several ripples erupted from Lawson's body, which was a defensive probe and passive attack, and it was obvious that this was a divine technique against the ashes of the undead.
But the ripples only rippled a little, and then disappeared without any effect.
Under the influence of Lawson's law [Lone Pilgrim], these magic spells were completely dissolved almost as soon as they took effect.
Since the wolf knight greatsword awakened the third ability, Lawson has a deeper understanding of his own laws, if the third ability of the wolf knight greatsword, by connecting the name of the object, cut off the connection between it and the world, then Lawson's own law is a kind of evolution of this ability.
"Who's coming?"
In less than a breath after Lawson had cracked through these multiple divine defenses, the scenery of the plain was distorted, and two priests in white robes walked out of the distortion, they had a calm and restrained aura on their bodies, and they should all have the strength of bronze or above.
The two of them were armed with holy scriptures, and it was clear that they were the battle priests of the Templars.
"Rosen, the Lord of the Ashes, and his subordinates have come to visit the Bishop, but it doesn't seem like you're very welcoming to us. ”
With a wave of his hand, Rosen flew a black letter into the hands of the priest.
The two clerics saw the wax seal on the envelope, and then at Lawson and Lisa, their faces turned a little pale, and one of them immediately took a step back and said to Lawson.
"The two have already been informed of the arrival of the bishop, as for the defensive magic that the Holy Church itself has, it cannot be erased, and I hope to understand that the Bishop has instructed that the two are important guests of the Holy Church, please follow us. ”
There was more wariness in his voice, clearly distrusting Rosen.
"Please lead the way. ”
Rosen shrugged, and then followed the two clerics into the sanctuary.
I don't know if what the priest said is true or not, but Lawson and Lisa did not encounter any more divine obstacles in the future, and they followed the priest forward, walking into the distortion of space.
After a subtle sense of alienation, Lawson found himself no longer in the barren wilderness, and there was a bustle of cries and hawks in front of him, as if it were a lively market somewhere.
The tall gates stand tall, and the walls divide the areas into different landscapes.
He looked back and found that the plain behind him had vanished, replaced by a patchwork of buildings, centered on the lake, radiating in a pattern that was not inferior to that of any other country's royal capital.
"Welcome to Arashigaoka Ramirez, the city of the Goddess's creation. ”
A cleric whispered.
