Chapter 2: The Divine Pact
Noisy streets.
Sauron walked forward shrouded in a cloak, he didn't have a very good sense of Amazonian women, especially the attitude of these women who used men as breeding tools. The two worst females in the world, the first is the drow elf, and the second is the Amazon woman. If you don't spend money on them for pleasure, you'll end up finding yourself as if you're being played with, and if you're not strong enough, they'll look at you with pity and contempt.
Sauron's combat effectiveness is naturally beyond doubt!
He can deal with even the most depraved and lewd drow elves in the dark region, and naturally he will not fall behind these Amazonian female warriors. But these girls are too brutal, if you don't have as much strength as theirs, they can ride on you for most of the night, and in the end you will feel like you're not grassing her, but she's grassing you. Please forgive Sauron for being too vulgar, but in fact these girls are so difficult to deal with, it's better to keep a little distance from them.
Moreover, Amazon women are still notoriously ruthless, and they are still in harmony with you one moment, and as long as there is a conflict of interest in the future, they can use a knife on you the next moment.
The opinion of ordinary women must not be applied to them!
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
The nights in Port Taylor are not peaceful.
Sauron weaves through the crowd and occasionally sees some very dangerous people, all of whom are involved in the smuggling trade. They have a wide variety of goods, including human species, and indigenous people are part of the smuggling trade. Women and children were sold to the slave black market, men were sent to work in the mines, and the natives of the Soros Islands never stopped fighting them. The hustle and bustle of the tavern lasts until dawn, and every day the hapless ones are looted or left behind.
The area near the temple is relatively quiet.
The fear of evil gods is more real than the love of good gods, and no one dares to cause trouble near the temple of the goddess of the sea, unless they think they are impatient. Instead, they passed in front of the Temple of the Sea. They would pray meaningfully to ask the goddess of the sea to protect them from disaster. The goddess of the sea is a very vengeful deity, as long as you dare not make a sacrifice this year, she will dare to set off a huge wave and send a sea monster to kill a fleet next year, and if she does not appease the anger in her heart, this kind of disaster will last for a long time.
Even the pirates had to make a nominal sacrifice every year and hold a larger ritual of devotion to the gods!
There are almost no guards in front of the temple.
However, the Ocean Temple is connected to the underground seawater, and the Temple is surrounded by a bottomless pool of water on the left and right, and there are sea monsters with a creature level of about 16, and if you dare to mess around, a tentacle suction cup will be thrown out and drag you to the bottom of the water. Corpses produced annually in Port Taylor. Many of them are connected to the sewers to feed these monsters, and the occasional giant shark can be seen.
In the center is a statue of a goddess.
It was a statue of a goddess who looked rather evil, her hair was like seaweed, her face was dark with tattoos, her arms were white and slender, but her abdomen began to have scales, her legs were very slender and powerful, she was wearing a seaweed-like light blue skirt, and she was holding an artifact [Drowning Death] in her hand. That's a very powerful trident. At the feet of the goddess of the sea is a giant great white shark, who loves the shark-people of the sea species, and these monsters are her most devout slaves.
Sauron leaned slightly towards the guards in front of the temple.
After revealing his intentions, he was soon led into the temple. The temple is lit with a strange azure light, and the walls are carved with waves of the ocean, which are as beautiful as flowing water.
The guards quickly left the main hall.
Sauron didn't dare to move around, and stayed quietly where he was. Because the temple is a very dangerous place.
There were faint wet marks on the ground.
Sauron actually saw a stream of sea water flowing over the temple, and then seeping through the corner of the temple into the ground, followed by a faint fishy smell. That's the smell of sea life.
"Humans."
An unanimous magnetic voice rang out, and a female creature with seaweed-like hair, pale cyan skin, and four arms appeared at the back of the temple. Her lower body was a bit like the tail of a huge sea snake, and she came to the front of the main hall with a frown, staring at Sauron with cold pupils, and said slowly: "The guard said that you want to ask the great sea goddess for help?" β
Naga Siren.
One of the ancient sea creatures, it has some kind of blood connection to the Abyssal Snake Demon.
"Yes." Sauron humbly bowed his head in awe, and said in a deep voice, "I have been injured by some terrible spells, and I would like to ask the priest of the goddess of the sea to help me remove the evil power from my body." β
A faint glint appeared in the eyes of the Naga Siren, and after glancing at Sauron, he said slowly, "Negative energy? Energy-absorbing damage? Is it a vampire? Or is it a dark species? Or some other spell? β
Energy-drain damage isn't limited to legendary spells, high-tier vampires can also use negative energy to corrupt enemies.
"It's energy absorption."
Sauron didn't hide it at all, and said in a deep voice: "I have been hit by the energy absorption technique, and my own power has been sealed, and the negative energy is still in my body. β
The Naga Kraken showed a look of surprise and said slowly, "Energy Absorption? Mankind! It looks like your strength seems to be good. β
Sauron has not died after being hit by the legendary spell, and his natural strength is very good.
Moreover, he didn't look very weak, which meant that even after planting energy absorption, he still retained his strength of the second order.
The Naga Siren was silent for a moment.
The temple will provide services to others, but this will come at a cost, most often with money.
All temples require a great deal of wealth to maintain.
The sea goddess doesn't have so many worries, even if it is an extremely evil pirate, her priest will help, but this kind of help depends on Cheng DΓΉ, a legendary spell such as energy absorption, you must cast a high-level restoration technique to recover, which is also a big price for the priest, and may even weaken for a while. Her eyes flashed with a glint and she said in a deep voice, "Human! The goddess of the sea is willing to help anyone, but it comes at a cost! β
Sauron nodded slightly, then took out a large sum of Kindler, along with a large handful of gems.
In this case, he must first show his sincerity.
Sauron has made a lot of money in the City of Wealth, and the things he has taken out now are probably worth close to 8,000 Jindler, in order to allow the other party to perform the 'Advanced Restoration Technique'. He was bound to bleed profusely once. Moreover, the priests of evil gods are inherently charged higher than those of good gods, and if they are not believers or have other contributions, they may need to pay more than 50% more of their wealth.
"Not enough."
The Naga Siren shook his head gently, and his body more than two meters tall swam in front of Sauron, a faint blue light appeared in his eyes, and he said slowly: "The power of this spell not only hurts your body, but also weakens your soul!" β
"This dedication will not repair the soul."
The soul is weak.
Sauron seemed to think of something, and after a moment of silence, he said in a deep voice: "My respect for the goddess of the sea is beyond doubt! β¦β¦ How much do I need to pay to be able to get rid of the negative energy in my body? β¦β¦ Just give me a little time. I'll find a way to get enough to give! β¦β¦β
The Naga Siren seemed to be thinking, the temple has the rules of the temple, and they are not willing to help.
If it was just an ordinary healing magic technique, it would naturally be easy to say, and she basically didn't need to make a move, but such a high-level magic could not be put indiscriminately, because it would consume the divine power gathered by the temple. Advanced restoration techniques can bring back a dying person, who has a missing arm or leg and grows back like a missing arm, or even a single head, as long as he is not dead. It's all salvageable. Naturally, the cost of this kind of magic is also very high, and legendary priests will use it with caution.
"Humans."
A strange glint appeared in the eyes of the Naga Siren, and then his expression became a little cruel, and he said slowly, "You want to get the help of the goddess. You have to contribute to the goddess. β
"I can help you remove the spells from your body, but you have to do something for the goddess when you're done."
Sauron's heart jumped, but he still said slowly, "What's the matter?" β
The goddess of the sea is an evil deity, and this kind of task is definitely not a good thing. But Sauron didn't hesitate.
The Naga Siren stared at him, paused for a moment, and then a look of anger and cruelty appeared on his face. He said in a deep voice: "Recently, a group of people broke away from the belief of the goddess of the sea! β¦β¦ They have ceased to revere the goddess of the sea! β¦β¦ These creatures have dedicated a ritual that originally belonged to the goddess of the sea to the Lord of the Storm! β¦β¦ This group of people must be punished! β¦β¦β
"They must pay the price of betraying the faith of the goddess of the sea! β¦β¦β
Naga Siren's voice was like thunder, and she said with an angry expression, "I want you to kill them!" Kill them all! Leave none behind! β¦β¦β
"So that the wretched mortals will remember the majesty and wrath of the goddess of the sea! β¦β¦ Understand the cost of betraying the faith of the goddess of the sea! β¦β¦β
"Bring me the head of their leader, and not only will you not have to pay any riches, but you will also be rewarded by the goddess of the sea!"
"Human! Do you agree? β
"It's dangerous, but it's worth it. Is that right? You should have what it takes to deal with that bunch of guys! I'll help you too! Don't try to deceive me, and don't try to deceive the Goddess of the Sea, for if you break the contract, the wrath of the Goddess of the Sea will befall you! β
Because you no longer believe in the goddess of the sea, do you want to kill your former believers?
This is indeed the style of the goddess of the sea.
Although it was possible to offend the Storm Church because of this, Sauron nodded without hesitation and said in a deep voice, "Yes. I'll kill them all! β
The Naga Siren showed a cruel smile and said slowly, "Very good. β
"Come with me to the back of the temple, and I will help you undo the spells on your body, and then restore your weakened soul. Remember what you promised, it's a pact with the goddess of the sea. β
