A bright and dazzling green light burst out from above the emblem of the Lady of the Forest in Attila's heart.

It was like an open, ring-shaped, green ball of light, as its dense outer membrane expanded outwards and passed through the monster's blood-red claws. At a speed visible to the naked eye, I saw pus-filled bubbles bulge one after another on the monster's claws, and then exploded, and emerald green plant vines grew wildly out of them.

The thorn propped up the flesh and blood of the monster, and pulled it up one by one, and it was torn apart like a flower, revealing the white bones below; But the bones were as fragile as powder in the green light, and they were broken inch by inch—five long finger claws, as if they had hit an invisible barrier, burst out and scattered to the ground.

The monster screamed and hurriedly retreated, like a poor creature being bullied.

Miss Elf was stunned for a moment, and pressed her holy emblem with one hand: "Lord Ameya? She asked in a low voice. At this moment, a spear of light shot out, like lightning, through the heart of the monster, nailing it to the gray stone wall behind it, and a crack bloomed on the stone wall, like an icy lake, split in two.

The monster opened its mouth, revealing its snow-white fangs, and let out the most mouthful of mist, sending a low, hoarse hiss out of its throat, and it struggled for a moment, and finally tilted its head and drooped.

The process was like lightning, and it wasn't until the moment when the big cat took off the spear that everyone reacted.

Ai Xiaoxiao's face turned pale with fright, and she patted her heart with palpitations: "Scared me to death, what kind of monster is this......?" ”

But no one could answer.

Only Attila looked at the trail of blood that slowly slipped off the wall, and replied with some calmness, "Servant of Blood." ”

"Servant of Blood?"

The crowd gathered around, and the monster looked like a skinned man alive, headless, with a bloody mouth directly on its neck, one claw that had been reduced to powder from the previous battle, and the other a long, bifurcated and curly tentacle.

The monster collapsed on the ground like a mass of flesh, and a black hole opened in its chest, from which it bled out.

At this moment, a voice came from behind the elven lady holding the emblem: "The Servants of Blood are not real creatures, but half-golems transformed by a combination of alchemy and evil magical rituals—in the Assyrsia, they are also called Blood Golems. ”

The big cat man was coming up from behind, walking next to the Blood Servant, his heavy armor making a 'whoosh' sound.

He stopped beside the bloody corpse, crouched down, then lifted the latter from the ground, threaded the glove through the fangs, and plunged into its gaping jaw.

And Tian Lan, who came closer, just heard a sound like a hand inserting into the muddy water, and saw a stream of blood coming out from under the big cat man's hand. She suddenly had a churn in her throat, couldn't help but turn pale, and immediately covered her mouth and ran out.

On the side, Alyssa's performance was slightly better, but it was also limited, and she asked with a pale face, "Mr. Red, what are you doing......?" ”

The big cat man didn't answer, but grabbed the other person's tongue and pulled it out of the blood. There was a soft 'plop' sound, and the tongue was pulled out of the hook. The big cat man grabbed it in his hand, and for a moment blood flowed sideways, dripping between the dust on the ground.

The blood mixed with the sand and turned black-brown -

Seeing this scene, just as Ai Xiaoxiao on the other side was almost about to cover her mouth and run away, and it was at this moment that the long tongue suddenly came to life - it curled and struggled, and let out a scream in the hands of the big cat man.

Then the thing swooped down, slipped out of the big cat-man's glove, and landed on the ground, crawling like an octopus towards Parker. The Paparrals were so frightened that they almost forgot that they were crossbowmen, or 'king of the nightingales'. Although the thing was at least a foot or two away from him, the little fat man had already screamed and sat on the ground.

It was too late, but it was too fast, and the big cat man suddenly stretched out his iron boots and stepped on the octopus with one paw. After a soft sound, the latter suddenly turned into a pool of blood.

Only then did Red throw a cloud of platinum incandescent from his hand, turning the flesh on the ground to ashes.

After doing all this, he patted his paw and looked up at the crowd:

"This corpse is just a decapitated living sacrifice, this thing is the body of the Servant of Blood. If the blind god Deska creates a twisted object through nightmares, and then uses alchemy and evil magic to graft it onto the sacrifice, if he does not kill it completely, Tansnir is afraid that he will be in great trouble——"

Ai Xiaoxiao listened with some horror on the side.

"Mr. Big Cat Man, will this thing still multiply?" She endured her discomfort and asked in a whisper.

Rhett couldn't help but laugh and cry every time he heard the other party call him, but he still replied: "This is a sacrifice, and it is also a host, and the blood worm - that thing just now, will multiply with the sacrifice as nutrients, and then soak into the groundwater through the dirty blood." If the blood plague breaks out, half the city may be infected......"

"So, ...... now?"

"Luckily, those guys should have given up on this place early."

"Those guys, do you mean the slave traders?" Ai Xiaoxiao was very puzzled: "But why do they want to do this?" ”

The big cat man shook his head: "The identity of those slave traders is not simple, they are blind followers. ”

"Blind followers?"

"A believer in Descartes, the blind god."

At this time, the big cat man suddenly said to Abed, "Take this corpse away and burn it clean." ”

The latter was silently watching the scene and only nodded, as if not surprised. He let the guards in and dragged the body out—only the guards cringed at first, but with the big cat's assurance, they finally settled down. They dragged the body out of the hall, leaving only a dark blood trail on the floor.

Red then turned around and continued, "Deska, the blind god, is one of the Dark Saints, a Keeper of Secrets, a Polluter and a Breeder of Life, but it died at the hands of Lady Ameya during the War of the Giants. Since then, its followers have rarely appeared in this world—"

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, and said with a somewhat solemn expression: "But the use of evil magic and alchemy to construct and distort life is a typical characteristic of Descartes believers, and it seems that they have resurged. ”

Ai Xiaoxiao was close to Tang Xin, and the latter was Milera's priest, so the little girl listened to the description of the big cat man and was very puzzled: "Life Breeder, isn't that Miss Milella's priesthood?" Why would a dark god have such a title? ”

But this time, it was Attila on the side who answered her.

Miss Elf held the emblem in her hand and turned around and replied, "Because a twisted life is also a life, and a plague is also a life, and life can also kill life, and Descartes is not only Lord Aimea's sworn enemy, but also one of Lady Mirera's great enemies in the War of the Giants." ”

Talking about the past god war, everyone was a little unsure of how to answer for a while.

Because not many people know about the history since the time of the Ethelin Calamity.

At this time, the big cat man scratched the blood marks on the wall with his paws, and added lightly: "'Blind listening, blind faith, blind obedience-'"

"Descartes is the most different of the dark saints, it admires knowledge, likes alchemy, is keen to create those 'lives' that do not exist in the first place, it is the 'keeper' and 'life breeder' among the dark saints, it occasionally appears in front of the world in the form of 'Milella' and 'Angela', to seduce those scholars and alchemists who seek knowledge and truth."

"And through forbidden knowledge, tempting people to fall."

"Alchemist?"

Miss Nightingale raised her eyebrows slightly.

And when everyone heard this, they suddenly realized something—it seemed that until now, their head had not spoken.

Tang Xin was the first to arrive at the anomaly, and when she turned around, she saw that her cousin was frowning slightly, keeping his head down and thinking, as if he was unaware of the changes in the outside world.

She was about to speak, but Fang Yu had already raised her head first.

He looked at Attila and said, "Miss Attila? ”

As if she understood what he was going to say, Attila bowed her head slightly.

Only then did she put down the emblem in her hand and said, "The lady has left. ”

Fang Yu had a complicated look on his face: "Was it really ...... just now?" ”

Attila still nodded.

God descended –

In fact, at the moment when the Holy Emblem in Miss Elf's hand shone brightly, Fang Yu secretly felt a gaze fall on him.

The gaze was majestic and pervasive, yet gentle and elegant, and made people feel a visceral stability, as if only the moment that gaze fell on him, he felt the dark, negative, violent thoughts that had accumulated in his heart since absorbing a series of dark powers from the lizard god, Nicol Bolas, and the dragon king Lifgard—

It was all swept away.

That quiet and ethereal feeling almost made him feel like he was repeatedly returning to the original source of life, and there was an illusion that sublimated the whole person.

Then a voice came to the bottom of his heart:

"The owner of the Crown of Hailin."

"It's the first time we've met."

"Please don't be afraid."

"I'm not the one you're looking for, or looking for, you."

"But only out of a little curiosity......"

"So I'll give you a little gift—"

"Keep it in your heart......"

……

And when Fang Yu comes back to his senses.

He saw Attila standing in front of him with the emblem in her hand.

Miss Elf's gentle and broad gaze seemed to have some similarities with the lady, but the details were not exactly the same.

He was stunned for a long time before he looked around a little dazedly—the monster that had attacked Miss Elf earlier was now gone, only a blood stain in the hall not far away, which seemed to indicate that it had existed. It seemed like a while had passed in the hall, but for him, it had only been a moment of questioning and answering.

Fang Yu saw Attila bow lightly at this time, and he really understood in his heart-

It was the lady who had spoken to me before.

Master of the forest, god of nature and hunting, patron of sacred trees, deity of eternal youth and beauty - Ameya.

He had indeed heard of a number of stories of the Divine Descent in the past—including the Elector, and about a decade ago, there had been a Elect of Marlan in Division 1 who had become a legend as a god who had won the throne of the Ten Kings. Later, one or two more Chosen ones were born.

However, they are all unknown inferior gods, not as famous as the first one.

As we all know, it is a rather rare occurrence for a god to descend on Aitalia, and the aborigines call it a 'miracle', and every time a god performs a miracle, it has a profound impact on the world.

However, since the War of the Giants, the gods of Ori have rarely walked on the earth.

Fang Yu didn't expect that he would encounter the arrival of the forest lady's god.

And this time he descended, and there were some things that were not quite the same.

First of all, Lady Forest has always been distrustful of the Elect, and she is one of the few deities who does not accept hypocrites as believers. Amea's solitary height, even among the gods of Ori, is exceptionally famous—her descents are rare in history, let alone among the Chosen One.

But if the other party is very blue-eyed towards him, it is not necessarily true.

Overall, this time the Divine Descent is quite strange -

They did not choose him as their chosen elect, nor did they exert any divine power on him, let alone give him any favor—it was as if they were just passing by, and came to talk to him for a few days. said that it was a gift for him, but in fact, it was just a clueless word to him:

'The gray wolf and the sword-'

Fang Yu thought carefully for a long time before remembering that wasn't the pattern on the badge of the big cat man?

It was actually Marlan's emblem.

But when he asked the other party in turn, the forest lady only nodded slightly to him and said a noun:

"Fenris."

Fang Yu can understand this term. But what it represents, but I don't know.

This always gave him the illusion that this lady of the forest had come to make fun of him, but was a high deity, the lord of the jungle and nature, so idle?

Luckily, Attila is still here.

He looked at the other party, and Miss Elf's long eyelashes sank slightly, "I felt the will of the goddess just now. ”

Everyone was already confused when they heard the two of them playing dumb riddles, and when they heard this, they turned their eyes to the latter.

"God's Arrival?"

Even the big cat man was a little surprised: "Could it be ...... Is that the ...... just now? ”

Attila nodded slightly:

"It's Lady Ameya, and the Goddess wants us to do her a favor."

As soon as these words came out, everyone suddenly gasped.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute," even Parker couldn't help but stretch out his hand and said loudly, "How many levels are we, and the goddess won't find us...... Oh, newcomer, huh? ”

"Aren't you the king of the nightingale?" Alyssa asked.

The Paparal opened his mouth and thought for a while before replying, "It's not a contradiction. ”

But when Fang Yu heard these words, he sobered up a little and understood a little. It turned out that the goddess had come to find Attila, and she had just chatted with him for a few words - as for why, Fang Yu hadn't thought of the reason for a while, and could only assume that it was because he had the Hailin Crown on his body.

But he pondered for a moment before he came back to his senses.

Help the forest lady with the work.

This kind of task will of course follow.

The Electors are keen to seek out rare quests in Aitalia and reap the benefits of them. But what other mission could be more legendary than a mission of the 'Oracle' level? What's more, after listening to Miss Tata's description, he had roughly guessed the reason why Ameya was here.

After all, Descartes died at the hands of the latter.

Deska, the blind god, is ultimately looking for the twisted side of life, and can be said to be the sworn enemy of nature, and one of the great responsibilities of Lady Ameya's sacred tree temple in the world is to monitor the movements of blind followers.

And Miss Attila is the sacrifice of this temple.

So Fang Yu opened his mouth and asked, "Is it for us to investigate something related to the blind followers?" ”

Attila bowed her head and said, "This is exactly what the goddess meant, since more than ten years ago, she has faintly felt the aura of her former enemy. But just like the god of the lizards, the other party is very hidden, and in fact, Lady Ameya has been searching for the whereabouts of the other party in Kaurin-Ishurian using her divine sense, until the 'Servant of Blood' appeared—"

"Since more than a decade ago?"

Fang Yu had fully recovered at this time, and when he heard this, he felt that he had grasped something.

He couldn't help but look to the side, just in time to see Sylvide's gaze towards him. In fact, he had long understood that their task at the moment was not so simple, and at this moment, in the foothold of the slave traders, whether it was after discovering the Blind Follower Ritual or the discovery of the 'Servant of Blood'.

In fact, it didn't surprise him.

It's only at this time that those lost clues are connected one by one like a string of beads.

Due to Descartes' preference, the proportion of scholars and alchemists among the blind followers is quite large, and the creation of blood servants is inseparable from the combination of necromancy and alchemy. Therefore, Istania is indeed one of the most suitable places for the development of blind followers.

But this thought reminded Fang Yu of another thing.

And it was at this moment that he seemed to feel something, and turned around to see Abed walking in from the outside again, and when the other party entered the door, he looked at them and suddenly interjected, "Guys, I have something to say. ”

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but look at the taciturn innkeeper - they already knew that the other party's actual identity was that of Her Royal Highness the Princess, not an ordinary innkeeper.

At this point, Abed organized his words before replying, "I'm sorry, but for some reason we have hidden some facts from you. In fact, Her Royal Highness the Princess has asked you to investigate the slave traders, not just to combat the slave trade...... But there is another reason. ”

He paused: "This starts from more than ten years ago, because the wandering alchemists who attacked the princess at that time may be such a group of people...... I experienced the attack firsthand, when I was so wounded in battle that I survived only by being buried under layers of corpses. I witnessed that battle with my own eyes, and the alchemists who attacked the princess's chariot also brought many of these monsters with them......"

"Just like the monster you saw before, exactly like ......"

After he finished speaking, he stopped and looked at the crowd quietly.

After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but look at each other in surprise, and they didn't understand why the other party suddenly said such a thing.

But only Fang Yu didn't look surprised at all, or even expected. He only looked at the other party and asked, "So, Her Royal Highness the princess knows about this early in the morning?" ”

Abed nodded very slowly.

"Please don't criticize Her Highness the Princess, after all, Your Highness has no evidence to prove that these Hardworking Merchants are indeed related, only the level of suspicion," he replied quietly, "After all, the wandering alchemist has once again appeared in Tansnir, and the only clue left behind is the ...... of these slave traders."

"And we," Fang Plover asked, "happens to be the only one who has dealt with that wandering alchemist?" ”

Abed bowed his head again.

But he also explained: "However, Her Royal Highness did not mean to deceive you, she really just wanted you to help investigate the origin and whereabouts of these slave traders, but she did not expect——"

The big cat man interjected at this time and asked rhetorically: "Unexpectedly, we found out the identity of the other party at the beginning?" ”

The owner of the sand lodge did not answer.

And Red narrowed his silver-gray eyes slightly, and said, "So what are you going to do now?" ”

Abed then raised his head and looked at them: "It depends on what you mean. ”

"How?" Fang Yu asked.

"Her Royal Highness the Princess's purpose is actually to track down the murderer of her mother more than ten years ago," Abed replied straight to the point, "Now that it has been confirmed that these slave traders are involved, I hope you can continue this mission and find the whereabouts of these slave traders." ”

Fang Yu pondered for a moment.

In fact, the other party's thoughts were completely within his expectations. He had already known that Her Royal Highness the Celestial Princess was involved in this matter, it was not such a simple matter, why did he ask for convenience to meet them in person after they met the wandering alchemist?

And at that time, during the banquet, the other party also mentioned the incident ten years ago.

But whether they should say yes or not, and how they should agree, is another matter.
