Chapter 132: Change of Formation

"I was honest with Amanta's gaze and let his light reflect my inner honesty. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info When several of my companions and I were trapped in the dwarven underground, I saw the dragon that had transformed into a dwarf talking to the dwarf of goldstone, and called him a companion, saying that he had inspired his plan......."

The big-faced boy stood beneath the huge statue of Amanta and recounted what he had seen and heard in the ground word by word with a serious face, and above his head, a steady white light floated.

"He's telling the truth. High Priest Xander nodded. This is a seventh-order divine technique that directly relies on the divine power of Amanta to distinguish a person's general inclination and the truth of his words. Of course, even the seventh-order divine art cannot guarantee absolute so that all the tested people have no way to hide it, such as the archmage who specializes in illusion, the high-level priest in the special field, it is still possible to resist this divine art with some extreme techniques, but now standing under the idol is just a teenager who can't fully master even a ring of arcane arts, and there can be no mistake.

In other words, the projection of the will of the lower realm is indeed on the dwarf named Jinshi. "The High Priest of Morin, who guards the hand, also has a heavy face. "With the testimony of the three teenagers, and the statements of the chief priests of the dwarves, this is already conclusive. ”

"In other words, we did misunderstand that the invincible king, the sword of benevolence. Even standing beneath the statue of the god of the sun that he worshipped, the gloom on the face of High Priest Sandel could not be dispelled. This misunderstanding is not only a setback for the Nikko Temple, but also a disgrace for the entire Temple Church on the West Coast. "We will immediately issue a statement acknowledging our mistake, and at the same time pass the news to the other temples on the continent as soon as possible, so that they can cancel the wanted of the Sword of Benevolence. I also ask the Imperial Legation to forgive us for our mistakes and recklessness, and thank you for your contribution to the West Coast. I guarantee that no matter where you are on the continent in the future, you will receive the utmost kindness from the Temple of Sunlight. ”

High Priest Sandel said these words to Feng Yinqiu, and bowed half-bowed. This was a very rare gift for a high priest of a temple, but Feng Yinqiu still nodded and accepted it. This time, he did not come here in his personal capacity, but officially wore the hat of chief counselor of the Daqian envoy corps, nominally representing the entire envoy corps.

Now the position of the Great Cadre Envoys on the West Coast is not what it used to be, not only the new road to the Great Plains has been opened, but this time the journey to the Sgut Mountains was unexpected, but the result was a great success. The vitality of the entire dwarven clan has been greatly damaged, and it will take many years to repair itself, but the details have not been leaked. The Earthspeakers simply sent an emissary to inform the Council of Mages of the West Coast, and in gratitude to the two Westerner friends for taking rid of the evil dragons lurking among them, they promised not to infest the West Coast again for a hundred years. For the West Coast Mage Council, it turned out to be too good to have been, even though it wasn't supposed to be the same as it had been envisioned. A hundred years is only a short time for a dwarf, and for the mage nobles who have been suffering from the military expenses of the Northern Legion, it is almost no different from 'forever', at least for a lifetime. You know, they didn't report anything before that they could really solve this problem once and for all.

There are often various conflicts between the church temple and the mage nobles, but the overall interests of the West Coast are the same, and it is also a great favor for the temples and churches on the West Coast to help the West Coast solve the fundamental problem of the dwarves and the Northern Legion. One of Amanta's teachings is light, and all cover-ups for the sake of profit and reputation are humiliating to him, so the Sunlight Temple has never denied the mistakes he has made, and now the testimony of the dwarves and these noble boys has proved that it is the golden stone dwarves who are possessed by the will of the lower realms, so the previous pursuit of the invincible sword of the king and the sword of benevolence can only be a mistake.

Feng Yinqiu didn't say much polite words to the two high priests, and the stubbornness of the clergy was sometimes a headache of rigidity, and sometimes it was a trustworthy principle. Now that the Temple of Sunlight and the Guardian Hand had admitted their mistakes, he didn't need to worry about the rest of the matter.

Walking out of the Temple of Daylight with the big-faced young Angelo, Roynara was already lined up and waiting outside. Now the status of the port governor is also rising, and there are rumors that he will be the next viscount of Ossing.

"Then our envoys are ready to leave the West Coast and head to the Auro Plains. We hope that the local mage council will provide us with some help, such as supplies along the way, guides, etc. ”

Sitting down in the carriage, Feng Yinqiu directly and unceremoniously made a request to Roynala. Through the previous arrangement, although his status in the envoys is unchanged on the surface, his actual influence is worlds apart, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a matter of fact. And since you have taken on this task, you must do what you need to do well.

"Of course, of course, we will certainly provide you with sufficient help, after all, this time it is thanks to two gentlemen......" The chubby Governor of Harbour nodded again and again, and agreed with a smile on his face.

"Also, no matter what channel you use, can you find me a few high-level arcane scrolls......?

"Legality Arcane ..... this is really difficult, but I'll try..."

Roynala was able to get the approval of the Mage Council in this short period of time, and was elected by the Rothschild family, which was inseparable from the Great Cadre Envoy Group. He was one of the first and most determined people to show kindness and support to these Westerners, and from the first time Feng Yinqiu found him, he seemed to see some rare opportunities in it, and later helped the envoys deal with many affairs in Osstar City, helped the Zhang family retrieve the family property that had been divided, and provided manpower and materials for the construction of roads, he almost did his best. And with the dwarves announcing that they would no longer intrude on the West Coast, the reward he got now was naturally enough for him to laugh, especially the close cooperation with the Zhang family allowed the Rothschild family to get a channel to trade with the dwarves in the future, which made his position in the family skyrocket, and he almost replaced the original leader Baron Atokin, who had already kept a low profile.

If you want to rise from the bottom, in addition to perseverance and ability, it is also important to be good at seeing opportunities, and it is not a fluke that the port governor has come to this point. However, Feng Yinqiu glanced at Angelo, who was still a little excited next to him, and said lightly: "Angelo is a brave child, but after all, he is too inexperienced, and his combat effectiveness is still too weak. Although wind and rain and experience are necessary conditions for growth, you should still stop too dangerous ways. ”

"Yes, yes. This time it would be thanks to Mr. Feng and Mr. Liu, otherwise they would really be ......" Roynala wiped the cold sweat that had just soaked from his forehead. I don't know if I was afraid that my child would not be able to come back this time, or if I thought of something else.

In fact, Roynala was supported by the rest of the family this time, and was recognized by the other families of the Mage Council, partly because of Angelo. The boy had been running around declaring that the dwarves must have had a major conspiracy and had been dismissed as nonsense, but now he had become a discerning and young man. He encouraged several other noble boys who also didn't know the depths to investigate, and although they were captured by the dwarves, they miraculously brought everyone back with their hands and feet, saying that it was luck or daring, in short, to impress the rest of the mage council. And the boy later claimed that he had been encouraged by his father to do it, and everyone said that Roynala had taught his son a good way and a big heart, and that he was indeed much better than those who were timid and only knew how to hide in their comfort zone.

"Thanks to Angelo, it might not be so easy for the Temple of Sunlight and the Guardian Hand to be fully convinced by our words and the messengers from the dwarves. Although Feng Yinqiu had some suspicions that the port governor was deliberately risking his own children, the result was a good thing after all. This big-faced boy who has been through many big scenes is indeed much stronger than ordinary aristocratic boys, and after he was released from the cage that day, he fled with his companions towards the path he secretly recorded, and finally was not affected by the earth element magic of the cave dragon. In the end, he and Liu Xuan should ask the earth dialect to find them, and only then did they use the dwarven magic to find them who were almost about to escape from the surface.

The big-faced young man on the side hurriedly said, "Mr. Feng, this is what I should do." It was I who thanked you for bringing me back, so that I could tell the truth to the clergy and make them understand that Mr. Sword of Mercy was wronged by them!"

Feng Yinqiu thought for a moment and asked, "I don't know what you're going to do next, do you want to stay on the West Coast?"

"No, this is the end of the matter, then I'm going back to the academy. ”

"Why don't you come with us, I just need a guide who really knows about Oroyusta, that arcane academy. ”

"Ah, I'm so happy to be with you. Angelo hurriedly agreed. "But isn't there a Master Motri, she's a teaching assistant in our academy, and she knows more about the academy than she does. ”

"Of course it would be better to have more channels of understanding, otherwise if she remembers something wrong, it will take us somewhere else. Feng Yinqiu smiled meaningfully.

"Really?" Angelo obviously didn't understand, and immediately asked, "By the way, Mr. Wind, now that the Temple of Sunlight has canceled the wanted of His Excellency the Sword of Benevolence, will he be back to find us soon?"

"Is this...... Then I don't know..."Feng Yinqiu thought about it, and could only shake his head. This eccentric friend is the only one who makes him completely elusive right now.

Pinks woke up from his coma.

Coma is not a fun thing for the Arcanists of the Executive Department of the Arcanist of the Arcanist of the Arcane Revival Society, and it usually means falling into the hands of someone else. But Pinkers didn't panic, he still closed his eyes and carefully felt the situation around him.

First of all, his mental condition is still relatively intact, and he tried to hook up the magic net slightly, and there seems to be no problem, that is to say, it should not be controlled by the special arcane isolation prohibition, which is the best situation for a mage, and then he also felt that the arcane equipment on his body was not stripped away. He almost wondered if he had been caught.

He didn't really think so, though, because he remembered very well that he had escaped from the dangerous Westerner in front of the dangerous Westerner during the Marquis Arroyo's underground ritual, and then fainted after being shrouded in darkness. He didn't know what was enveloping the light from the illumination crystal in the tunnel, but judging from the pain on the back of his neck, it seemed that the other party was not using arcane means.

The light that can be clearly felt when you close your eyes, the slight flow of air on the surface of your body, and the faint sound of insects and birds chirping, although your back is touching the smooth stone surface, it should be outside. Pinkers' mood instantly relaxed, and in such an environment, it was too easy for an experienced and equipped arcanist to resist or escape.

"When you wake up, open your eyes. A woman's cold voice rang out.

Pinks opened his eyes and saw a woman covered in pitch-black tight leather armor standing not far away, although the face was not clear in the shadow of twilight, but from the silhouette of this is a woman with an excellent figure, a pair of slender and round thighs, and a bumpy figure under the cover of leather armor, so that the experienced Pinks can't help but feel like a hot blood. Unfortunately, this blood had only risen halfway, and he immediately saw that in the other direction next to him, the Westerner called the Sword of Benevolence was staring at him with a smile in a look full of malice and banter, and the blood immediately shrank again.

After a hurried look around, the dreary twilight could still make a clear view of the surrounding scene, and Pinkers was stunned to find that this was still the Marquis Arroyo's mansion, just next to a relatively remote abandoned facility. And the two people in front of him obviously didn't restrain him because of carelessness or ignorance, but they were not afraid of what tricks he played.

"I advise you not to try to play any tricks. The woman in black also reminded him on purpose. "We don't want to be too eventful. I don't think you want to be crushed by us and then come and talk to you. ”

Pinkers really didn't dare to mess with anything. He had to admit that in the face of that weird Westerner at this distance, as long as the woman in black was not too bad, he really had no chance to resist at all. After all, he had come to have fun and help deal with the expected devil this time, and he had already used almost all the emergency means on his body in the previous escape.

"Who are you, and what do you want to do?" Pinkers asked in a relaxed tone. In the case of a disadvantage, the most important thing is not to provoke the other party, although the executive department often needs to use violence to solve the problem, but when it is not convenient to violence, they are also confident in negotiation.

This answer made the Westerner called the Sword of Benevolence laugh out loud: "Haha, don't use this gentle tone mixed with fear, we won't ** you, kidney-deficient boy." Relax, this big sister has something very important to tell you, uncle, I'm just watching from the sidelines. ”

The woman in black turned to stare at the Sword of Benevolence, who made a pouting expression, as if to ask you to say that I will not speak. Pinkers realized that it was not the woman in black who deliberately used the shadow of twilight to cover her face, but her head and face were completely shadowed, and as the twilight around her became thicker, the woman in black seemed to be about to blend into the surrounding darkness. This is not arcane, and there is no need to deliberately use any means in such a situation, as if it was just the instinct of the woman's breathing.

"High priests of the Night Lady? How can you ......" Pinkers blurted out with a stunned look on his face. This combination seemed unbelievable to him, and it was clear that all the temples and churches were trying to get this Westerner wanted, but this woman, who seemed to be a high-ranking cleric of the Lady of the Night, had a tacit understanding with him. Ordinary believers with shallow beliefs may ignore the temple, and the more senior the clergy, the stronger their belief in themselves, the less likely they are to ignore the will of the temple and the church. The Night Lady is relatively different among all the churches, but she is not so unusual as to go against other churches, and she still attaches great importance to the Elven Holy Land.

"Listen well, Pinkers Algiers de Doria. The voice of the woman in black was cold, with an unquestionable majesty. "We are well aware of everything about you. We, not talking about me and this Westerner, but me and the organization behind me. Your family, your studies, your hobbies, the Alpha Revival that you quietly joined, and the situation you are facing now, we are all well aware. ”

Pinkis' eyes moved. Although there was no expression on his face, his heart was already extremely shaken, although the Arcane Revival Society was not a secret, the confidentiality of the identity of each official member was still very good, and even his family did not know about it, otherwise once it was leaked, all kinds of harassment from the church and the temple would make it difficult for people to move an inch. Obviously, the woman he was facing now and the organization behind her were not simple.

"Would you be interested now that we can give you a chance to get rid of the kind of predicament that has bothered you so much lately?"

"I don't know what kind of predicament you're talking about?" Pinkers still wanted to test it.

"Of course, it's the dilemma of being tracked down by Julia Fernandez on the use of execution funds, and you should have a funding gap of about 530,000 yuan now. The cold voice of the woman in black made Pinkers feel a chill in his back, no one in the revival committee knew the terrifying details of this funding gap, but this woman could know it clearly.

But immediately after the chills, another kind of heat began to rise, and Pinkers felt his throat dry a little: "So, this lady, you mean to be able to offer a help or trade of 530,000 Okin, right?"

"Of course not. The voice of the woman in black extinguished his heat again. The ups and downs of the mood made Pinkers feel a little dizzy. "Even the entire Doria family is not worth five hundred and thirty thousand Aukin. I have no interest in filling your debts at the table, the squandering of the slave traders, and I am merely offering you the possibility to avoid that shortfall. ”

"What possibility?" Pinkers asked cautiously. "I'd be very happy if I got rid of that woman Fernandez...... But I warn you, it's not easy..."

"Why just get rid of Fernandez, wouldn't it be better if your family-like Arcane revival would just disappear?" the woman's voice was distinctly mocking.

Pinkers was silent. Although he was at such an extreme disadvantage, although he was indeed a person who knew how to pursue advantages and avoid disadvantages, this woman's words still made him feel disdain and anger. No matter how much he misappropriated the project funds to squander and have fun, as a member of the Revival Society, he was still full of respect and pride for this organization that represented the highest level of arcane arts on the mainland. It's the instinct of the Arcanist. Those who can be accepted as full members of the Revival Society must be one in ten thousand arcane geniuses, and if you want to become an arcane genius, it is impossible to rely on talent alone, without enthusiasm and dedication to the arcane itself to maintain a lot of practice and specialization, no matter how talented you are, it is impossible to stand out from others.

If there was only one choice between Arcane and a woman in life, Pinkers would have thought about it as well, of course, just seriously. Therefore, he still has a great sense of belonging and honor for the organization to which he belongs, representing the highest arcane level in the entire continent.

"Arcane civilization is undoubtedly great, but arcane itself is only a powerful tool, and it is people who carry this civilization itself. How naΓ―ve is it to revive the glory of the Empire with only a handful of Arcanists playing tricks behind their backs? How naΓ―ve is this to make such a plan? No matter how many relics of the Empire you excavate and how many lost arcanes you recover, it is impossible to restore the level of the Imperial era, nor can it have any fundamental impact on the current situation on the continent. Isn't the result of the previous Eleven-Ring Arcane Scroll proof this?Your greatest backing and hole cards are still vulnerable to the wrath of the gods. ”

The woman's cold, sharp words left Pinkers speechless. The loss of contact with the Star Temple was devastating to the psychological level of the members of the Renaissance Society. It was the last glory of the Arcane Empire, the only floating city that still had most of its functions left, a pillar of pride for them who still felt like they were on top of it and a source of motivation for them to continue to go their own way despite the pressure of the church and the temple. The rejection of the gods caused the Star Temple to lose its anchoring function and wander between the boundless universes of ten thousand stars, and it was possible to be swept away by the turbulence of the astral realm at any time, or even directly destroyed, which directly shattered the pride and motivation of the members of the Revival Society. The dependent forces on the periphery disassociated themselves from them, and the nobles who had originally supported them quietly cut off their financial and material sources. Some of the full members are in constant fear, others are immersed in alcohol and psychedelic alchemy, and some are said to have committed suicide. And most of Pinkers' 530,000 Aujin arrears were squandered on the gambling table, the wine table and the slave girls after the Star Temple was destroyed.

Still, the woman's words allowed Pinks to capture something valuable. Behind this woman is supposed to be an organization with different positions, but not the opposite. So he opened his mouth again and asked, "What do you think it should be?"

The woman who couldn't see her face seemed to smile, and didn't respond to Pincus's temptation, but only asked rhetorically, "It's just an accident to catch you here today, but we've been paying attention to you for a long time." Why do you think we came to you? Because you're one of the few people in that organization who is kind of sober-minded. What do you think they have left other than arcane arts? are they really people who can get along for a long time and conspire with great things?"

While these words made Pinkers speechless again, there were also bursts of resonance in his heart. This didn't seem to be a problem when he still had a lot of faith in the arcane, and everything was hidden in the light of the arcane. The most powerful and intelligent arcane genius is naturally the best group of people, and the plans formulated are perfectly interlocked, even if there are occasional setbacks in implementation, it should be bad luck to encounter a small probability of events, and all kinds of weirdness in personality can even be regarded as one of the signs of genius. But when the light is removed, the flaws hidden underneath are really a bit miserable. Needless to say, those who quickly sink into addicts and drunkards, one vice president can't make any big moves under the coin of the head of the house, and the other is supposed to be the most accomplished in the arcane, but he continues to immerse himself in all kinds of organs, limbs, and dolls all day long, as if nothing had happened. As for the rare ones who still remain alive, they are either irrational arcane fanatics, or women who take the opportunity to ostracize dissidents and want to seize the opportunity to seize greater power and influence.

Pinkers is very fond of women, very fond of beautiful women, but that is limited to primitive carnal movements full of passion and desire. When a woman becomes a creature who can't communicate and forces you to engage in endless squabbles and intrigues with her, what kind of desires will also disappear. Pinkers is now almost hopeless about the prospects of the organization, his own prospects, and his sense of identification with the once proud organization has been reduced to a freezing point.

And now all the information that broke out from this woman's mouth, excluding some psychological discomfort, Pinkers actually seemed to really see some light of hope that he had never thought of before.

"A group of arcanists who have just relied on the reputation of the Star Temple and the declining royal family have come to this day with all kinds of intrigues. This is already the limit of this organization. After the disappearance of the Star Temple, disintegration is his final destination. As someone with reasonable judgment, I think you should know what to do. The woman's cold voice made an irrefutable conclusion.

β€œ...... You're right...... "Pinkers' decision wasn't tough. The two people in front of him who could pinch him to death at any time gave him no choice, and the deficit of more than 500,000 yuan also made him have no choice. Moreover, these messages that this woman said casually also hinted that there was a very high probability that there was a huge monster lurking behind this that could only devour the Arcane Revival that was now falling apart. "So ...... you guys?"

"You could call us a true revival. The woman got the answer she wanted from Pinkers' face and seemed to smile

If simple words still seem thin, the woman in black then threw Pinks an arcane book, along with an elemental crystal, is very convincing. Just by touching the alchemy spider silk on the cover of the book, Pinkers knew that it was the property of a real Age of Empire archmage, and that elemental crystal was extremely pure, even if it was placed in the Revival Society, it was quite rare. This is by no means something that everyone can have.

"Turning in this Arcane Notebook and Elemental Crystals should be enough for you to deal with Julia Fernandez's pursuit for the time being. As long as you cooperate with us, soon your troubles will disappear forever. After that you will become a full member of us, and trust us, you will only get more than before. Whether it's arcane knowledge, resources, or future. A small family of Doria will only be your starting point. The woman in black pointed to the sword of benevolence on the side. "Until then, you, like this Sword of Benevolence, are considered to be a peripheral member of our organization for the time being, and I will lead you. Just call me Nightshade. ”

"Hahahaha..."The Sword of Love, who had been silent, laughed. "Not long ago, I was eager to screw each other's heads off, but now we are comrades in the same trench. Such a dramatic scene is really perfect for appearing in the script of Friends of Justice. But this kidney-deficient boy is so weak, are you sure he won't be accidentally trampled to death by me in the middle of the action?"

Pinkers also stole a glance at the strange Westerner with an extremely strange expression, and it was true, even if he had killed him before, he would not believe that he would be a colleague with such a monster. Now it seems that his so-called suspected devil identity is likely to be a trap specifically aimed at the Marquis of Arroyo. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but ask, "That...... What about the girls, Lord Arroyo?"

The woman said coldly, "They have given their lives to the god of love they worship, and that is a high-level desire demon. Soon the temple will come to investigate this thoroughly, so you'd better be careful. ”

"What, it's really ......" Pinkers paused for a moment before he let out a long sigh of loneliness. "It's a pity, I'm actually thinking about whether I can find a chance to help them......"

This sigh caused the sword of benevolence to clap his hands, point at him and say loudly: "Okay, just sigh at you, and your impression in my mind will be increased by 0.1 percent." Originally, I thought you were just a slug full of white slime and only knew how to wriggle instinctually, but I didn't think that there was still a trace of humanity! ”

PS: Ah, the child is on summer vacation, all kinds of changes, forgive me
