The caveman scout lay down on the branch of the tree, looked in the direction of the town for a long time, and then came down from the tree and said to the people:

"I didn't notice anything unusual, but I felt a little uneasy, a little different from the last time I came..."

Hearing him say this, Captain Gesen turned his head to look at the gradually darkening sky, and said:

"Since you and Pastor Reynolds have said so, we'd better not go into town tonight, and wait until tomorrow morning to find out. ”

"I'm sorry Pastor Reno, we might be camping tonight. ”

The captain's choice was a bit cowardly, but it was understandable, and entering a town at night with hidden dangers was undoubtedly a very unconscionable move.

Renault didn't mind, before he moved to the City of Innocence, he and the old bishop often slept in the open, living an ascetic life, sleeping in the open was no pressure for him, and even a little nostalgic.

And this team of mercenaries is indeed professional, very well prepared, although only a day's trip, but still brought a tent, the captain immediately found a suitable place to settle in the small woods on the side of the road, set up the tent with all hands and feet, and went to the nearby to find dry firewood, and lit a bonfire.

"When I came here last month, I was unharmed... You say, what's going to happen in this town?"

The elven mage asked with some uneasiness.

"Maybe I suddenly believed in a cult, right?"

Aunt Shanla replied that the most likely thing about the sudden appearance of a remote town like this was the spread of the cult, and they had encountered such dangers several times before, such as being besieged by cultists in the entire village, or being chased and killed by some cult apostles.

But Renaud said in that very affirmative tone:

"No, there's no cult vibe there. ”

The mercenaries couldn't help but wonder a little when they heard this, this is still several kilometers away from the town, so you can be sure that it has nothing to do with the cult?

But no one questioned Renault's judgment, and the captain Gerson followed:

"When it's dawn tomorrow, we'll go in and see. ”

"With Pastor Reynolds here this time, we should be able to get out of the way even if we encounter cultists. ”

Most of the mercenaries have been attacked by cults when carrying out various commissions, and most of the time they can only run, and they have to go to the church to find the clergy to help treat their injuries and check their bodies for curses or something.

So it would be a lot more reassuring to have a pastor in the team, let alone a skilled pastor.

Renault didn't say anything, but under the pretext of urinating, he went to the depths of the woods alone, and activated the insight magic again, so that his eyes lit up, and he looked in the direction of Yorktown.

At this time, the Yorktown in his eyes was covered with a faint gray, which was a little similar to the breath of a necromantic creature, but it was a little different, a situation he had never seen.

If you want to know exactly what's going on, you can only go in and see.

So he hid in the woods and threw a few magic spells at the camp from a distance: Tranquility.

This is the simplest and most basic magic technique, and it is not even specifically classified, and it is also the first magic that many priests learn in their hands, and the specific effect is to relax people's spirits.

This is generally used to appease others, normally when someone enters the church, the pastor should come to calm down when he meets, so that people can be emotionally stable, relaxed, and can lie about what blessing and what kind of shelter this is, so that people have a good impression of the church.

However, Renault rarely does this, not because he is lazy, but because he shoots a little heavily, and one shot can often make people drowsy, and if it goes down twice, it will be almost the same as the mage's hypnosis.

So when you need to use tranquility later, it's often the old bishop who makes a move...

And now, Renault threw several calms at the camp, and the mercenaries slept like dead pigs on the spot...

"I'm going to take a look in town, you're right here, don't move. ”

Renault commanded Amiya, then looked down at the snoring mercenaries and added:

"By the way, take care of them, don't let them run around or be taken away by wolves..."

With that, he turned around and walked towards the town.

Of course, he wouldn't wait until daylight to act with the mercenaries, that would be a lot of trouble, and it would be much easier to be alone.

After he walked away, Amiya, who was originally kneeling on the ground, suddenly moved, found a few thick hemp ropes from the horses next to him, and walked towards the mercenaries who were sleeping soundly...

Renault's side was only halfway there, and it was completely dark, and the temperature around him dropped sharply, making it very cold.

Renault thought for a moment, spread out his left hand, and a white flame instantly ignited in his palm, illuminating the road ahead and warming the surroundings a little.

As the main weapon of the priesthood, the Holy Flame has more than one purpose, in fact, there are many divine techniques related to the Holy Flame, and the ranks are also different, like Renault is currently using the most basic fourth-order Holy Flame: the Holy Flame.

The fourth-order Holy Flame is theoretically non-lethal, and can only have auxiliary effects such as dispelling evil arts and purifying curses, at least when used by normal clergy.

And there are fifth-order protection flames, punishment flames, sixth-order cleansing flames, judgment flames, etc., Renault's usual favorite is mainly fifth-order holy flames, which are simple to launch, more convenient to use than sixth-order, and not much weaker.

It's just that if you only need lighting and heating at the moment, the fourth order is enough, and if you use the fifth order, the holy aura emitted will be stronger, which may alarm the enemy and scare them away.

Renault walked for ten minutes until he arrived at Yorktown, and it was so quiet all the way that he didn't even hear a single insect chirping.

An earthen wall had been built on the outskirts of Yorktown to defend against wild beasts, and two guards in leather armor armed with earthen spears stood at the door.

Seeing Renault coming, their eyes instantly focused on him, staring at him deadly, without blinking their eyes, but without saying a word, only the corners of their mouths turned up slightly, revealing a strange smile.

"Hello, I'm a passing pastor, from the Miya sect. ”

Renault took the initiative to say hello.

The two guards didn't speak, just looked at him silently.

"Is your mayor here?"

Renault continued.

The two guards together stretched out their hands and pointed in a certain direction, which counted as an answer.

"Thank you. ”

Renault said politely, passing the two and walking into the town.

The guard stood motionless, only his gaze remained fixed on Renault, twisting his head as he moved.

By the time Renault walked behind them, their heads had rotated 180 degrees, and their faces were still smiling weirdly...
