Batches of priests and paladins to assist in healing have changed, but Archbishop Benedictas's divine energy has never stopped.

Oryx's wound is getting better at a rate visible to the naked eye. The shadow energy on the wound was almost gone, and the flesh became bright red again, and the blood flowed out as the granulations wriggled and closed, no longer black pus.

After another ten minutes, Rao is an archbishop who is well versed in sacred spells, and he is also a little overwhelmed, but fortunately, the treatment has come to an end. He stopped casting, wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, and let out a sigh.

The crowd that had been talking in a low voice closed their voices, and Dasuohan asked worriedly, "Archbishop, how is the situation?" Oryx doesn't matter, right? ”

"He's fine. Given Oryx's description of the Assassin's weapon, it is almost certain that it is the Blade of the Dark Empire of Saratas. To survive the attack of this ominous blade, our saints are truly blessed by the Light. ”

Benedictas looked at Oryx kindly, looked at him for a while, and then sighed faintly after a while, and said, "I must admit one thing...... Saratas is here with a lot of responsibility from me. ”

Everyone frowned, and they all heard some kind of extraneous meaning.

"Years ago, I took it out of Natalie Serin's belongings, hid it somewhere no one knows, and kept it a secret to this day."

The Archbishop recounted how he had kept a close eye on the Cult of the Forgotten Shadows, to watching Natalie Selin go to the point of no return, to learning of his death and taking the Blade of the Dark Empire of Saratas before the mage sent by the Council of Kenrito......

No matter how big or small, I said it all over again.

"I agree with Natalie's theory about the balance of light and shadow, but the existence of the Forgotten Shadow Sect is equivalent to opening a demon box for the world.

Not everyone can withstand the corruption of the Shadows, and through the Holy Light, they can glimpse the opposing forces...... Drowning people are often good swimmers, and too many followers have fallen into the dark side of her call to step on the tightrope balance between light and shadow.

I don't want anyone to get their hands on the Saratas Dark Empire Blade. Natalie's example has proven that no one can control this terrible weapon, including the mages of Dalaran. When I got it, I made the mistake that most egotisticals would make - I actually tried to study it and crack its secrets.

For two months, the voice of Salatas lingered in my head, trying to drag me into the infinite darkness. Before everything could be undone, I realized the problem, sealed it in a corner where no one knew, and never touched it again. It's so scary than all of us think.

After learning about what happened to Oryx, I went out of my way to check the hiding place. The Blade of the Dark Empire of Saratas was gone, and in connection with Orix's description and the unique shadow energy of his wounds, I was convinced that it was the weapon that hurt him......"

With that, the archbishop looked at Oryx and said apologetically, "It seems that I was foolish to hide this from Dalaran and seal him away, but fortunately, Oryx is deeply blessed, otherwise I would have become a sinner of the Light." ”

Everyone was a little surprised, it turned out that Salatas had been in the hands of the archbishop all along.

Their knowledge of this ominous blade was mostly superficial, and they couldn't help but feel that it was much more terrifying than they had originally imagined when they heard that even the archbishop, the agent of the Holy Light, could not resist its corrosion.

"There's no point in keeping this secret anymore. I will truthfully inform the Kenrito Council of this and do my best to make amends for my mistakes. In history, every appearance of Salatas has set off a wave of darkness. Hopefully, this time, it won't cause too much trouble as we struggle against the Burning Legion. Archbishop Benedictas said quietly.

……

In the early hours of the morning, Oryx's injuries had been completely stabilized, and the high-ranking members of the Church of Light and the Silver Hand had left.

He did not see the archbishop's unreserved disclosure as clear evidence that he had not been corrupted. What if you have actually been corrupted, and deliberately do so, to lower your vigilance?

There was really nothing he could do about how to counter Saratas and the Elder Gods behind it. Needless to say, the power is not equal, and the most important thing is that the attention of the entire Northland is currently restrained by the outbreak of the plague, which happens to be the best time for a third-party force to fish in troubled waters.

Everything can only be taken one step at a time.

He drank a glass of water, dragged his tired body, sat back on the bed again, pressed the bracelet, and activated the [Cloak of Light and Darkness].

Light surged from the bracelet, building a holy armor on the surface of his body.

Supplied by the divine energy contained in the Rezebu crystal, after a few hours of self-repair, the broken chest was almost healed.

In fact, the damage that appeared on the [Cloak of Light and Darkness] was what really made Orix feel weird.

He didn't think he was dead, that the Assassin had missed, or that Saratas hadn't anticipated the unexpected. Because this assassination has been planned for a long time.

In that slash a few hours ago, Saratas didn't make a difference, not even letting out much of the shadow energy. What remained in his wounds was more of a shadow energy that he naturally carried.

Otherwise, the [Cloak of Light and Darkness] would not have been sliced apart by the blade made of the claws of the Elder God because it was not strong enough, but when the massive amount of shadow energy that exceeded the upper limit of the capacity of the Rezeb Crystal as the core and the upper limit of the speed of light and dark transformation surged, it was first assimilated into a pure shadow form and could no longer transform its form, and then collapsed and dissolved.

That's right.

Salatas only used the most basic physical methods, lightly slashing him, and he even had the feeling that the other party was trying to suppress the damage so as not to kill himself.

He couldn't figure out the reasoning for that.

Saratas would not be unaware of the consequences of his premature appearance. He could have been lying dormant in the dark, waiting for the situation to develop, but now he appeared in front of people, triggering a series of subsequent reactions. Both the Church of Light and Dalaran are beginning to pay attention to the dark forces they represent, and even if no one knows much about the ancient gods, it will be a disadvantage.

Unless Salatas thinks that this is the best entry point to meddle in the situation, exposing it prematurely is part of the conspiracy, deliberately reminding Oryx, deliberately allowing the forces of the Elder Gods to surface in advance......

But again, in Oryx's opinion, this is completely doing more harm than good.

Saratas can't deliberately trick his "brothers", right? It was true that the other Elder Gods had eaten her, but no matter what, it was allowed within the rules of the Void Realm, and they were united in the face of any enemies who stood in the way of the wave of corruption.

Unable to figure it out, Oryx didn't think much about it, leaned against the bedside and read the war report from the eastern seaboard, and as he read it, he felt his eyelids getting heavier and heavier, and he became drowsy.

He summoned the divine energy in his body, ready to temporarily dispel the pain of the wound in his chest for himself in order to fall asleep.

But what can come out of your fingers is not the light of holiness, but the ......

Dark, gloomy shadow energy.

Oryx awoke suddenly, instantly sleepy. Dumbfounded as he looked at the shadow energy swirling between his fingers, he felt a chill rush from the back of his spine to the top of his head.
