Chapter 147: A Thief's Mistake?
"What did you find, Mr. Sawyer?" The old knight Brian clenched his sword vigilantly, and his shield-holding left arm approached the little thief, "Don't panic. β
Eddie and Urs also switched to readiness immediately because of his reminder.
The young man's brown eyes scanned the surroundings, and after a while, he felt that the danger was not imminent, and then asked the old thief who originally belonged to his team with a slight frown: "Groeldon ......"
"I didn't notice anything, honorable captain." Gloriden was a little innocent, and he was actually startled, and the fingers of his right hand had just pressed against the trigger of the Sour Tooth Crossbow.
However, there is nothing unusual around.
The fire in the temple area did not seem to be as big as in other parts of the city, and it was quieter, but the quiet atmosphere made Sawyer smell something strange in it, and the subtle feeling was, in the poet's words, like a soft concerto suddenly inserting an untimely noise.
But the untimely noise was out of place for a moment, inserted without warning, and then disappeared without warning, lasting as if in the blink of an eye.
It's a shame that he was able to seize that fleeting moment.
Pity......
"Hell, am I really too panicked?" Sawyer Boots lost the feeling he had just felt for a moment, and suddenly questioned his mental state a little, "But it shouldn't be......"
The suspicion of wandering is not ruled out as soon as possible, but the sensitivity of the senses is the job of every thief, and the halfling leader of the Shaving Blade Adventure Group is very confident in his ability in this regard.
He said in his heart that Yudaya is above, the beloved halfling goddess...... Is it really that I am too careful?
"Mr. Sawyer, maybe you're a little tired?" Thea stood beside Urs, carrying the bracelet of the Holy Emblem, and the enchanted medium-sized steel shield called the Demon Drinker Kite tied to her left forearm also subconsciously raised a little, and finally asked the halfling thief with concern after finding that nothing had happened.
The silver-haired wolf-eared girl is not a thief, but her own perception attributes are far beyond ordinary people, and sometimes her intuition is even more reliable than some low-level prophecy spells.
Holding two knives, after a short period of stunned, he secretly scolded this little man who lied indiscriminately for being really nervous, shouldn't halflings be born small and bold?
What is he afraid of?
Miss Poet's dark purple eyes rolled in her eyes, and after scolding inwardly, she decided to continue to retain a trace of deliberate vigilance. The harsh underground environment of the dark region makes her know too much about her sense of survival, but she still doesn't say what she thinks, and it seems to be a bit of a maverick.
Shi Fist also lowered his fists at this time, and his slightly bowed waist was straightened again. He hinted that he was calm, and that he would rather believe that Sawyer had just put an "empty whistle" on it, and a strange premonition somehow came to the half-orc monk's mind.
He felt fate knocking at his door...... Something that you can't escape is about to creep close to you.
Soon...... But not yet.
So the orc monk had a similar mentality to Miss Drow Poet, for two different reasons.
Koto's mind was much simpler. The eyes of the dwarven warrior looked left and right, and after a long while, he was stunned and didn't even see the body hair of a demon, and after being confused for a while, he couldn't help but ask the halfling thief with some concern: "Yes, yes, Brother Sawyer, are you really a little tired?" I've heard from the people in your group that you have led your team to fight continuously from the beginning of the disaster, and you have also allocated energy to help refugees, which is not a pressure that ordinary people can bear! β
"Hmm...... Okay, okay, that's probably what I'm thinking too much about. Sawyer thought about it again, simply patted his head, and admitted that he had made a mistake, "Let's go, let's go into the church and have a look." β
When the words fell, he shook his head and threw the doubts just now out of his head.
The team's quest continued.
Walk past the marble statue of the god of war and step up the wide staircase in front of the building's doors into the interior of the church in front of you.
Wall's church is not very lavish in its setting, with the statue of the god facing the door at the bottom of the hall, the flat main aisle flanked by rows of neatly displayed benches, several painted glass windows on the high walls with various weapon motifs, and the arched dome about ten meters above the ground, with several beams hanging from crystal chandeliers.
The Magic Crystal Chandelier in that charge mode is on extinguish. The room was a little dark, and Thea performed a light spell, attaching the light source of the magic to her emblem bracelet, and Groledon and Sawyer also took out their respective luminous stones and shook them in their hands, causing the two magical stones to shine as well.
"The place looks good." The halfling thief looked around with wide eyes, and his small head moved under the dome of the church, "The area looks quite large, and the chairs on both sides should be enough to sleep a few rows of people, at least it feels better than the cold ground." β
The old knight Brian agreed with this opinion, but he stood steadily in place, and his left hand wearing the steel shield released the shield strap he was holding, and guided the holy power in his body to push forward.
Detect evil.
Using the effect of that magic as a spell-like ability attached to a class, the paladin can cast an unlimited number of times to "detect evil" anytime, anywhere, causing anything of evil nature in his field of vision to appear reddish, and the intensity of the red light varies according to the degree of evil of the detected object, for example, when a paladin only uses this ability to detect a normal thief, he may only notice that the thief's body is reddish.
But if he threw this ability at one of the Demon Lords of the Abyss, he would feel his eyes burn, indicating that a powerful evil presence was somewhere in his sightβeven if he didn't see the other person right away, a sense of direction would still appear in his mind, guiding him to try to find and defeat the latter.
The old knight was very experienced, and after a round of detection, he couldn't detect the abnormality, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and echoed Sawyer's comment and said, "Then let's check if this church is still strong enough...... Also, Captain Eddie, take the liberty of asking, would your deity mind if we would bring the suffering masses into his church for refuge? β
"Wall doesn't mind the strong helping the weak, he only reverses the ignorant who abuse battle as an excuse to commit atrocities." Eddie replied, holding the halberd, "So don't worry. β
"That's wonderful!" Sawyer Boots clenched his fist excitedly, "I've got a crush on your god, Captain of the Guard. β
With that, he raised the glowing stone in his hand and approached a few steps closer to the statue at the bottom of the church, which was usually used for religious ceremonies and prayers.
Urs's Thorn Squad of six fell a little behind the three of them. The young man slung his greatsword over his shoulder, his gaze sweeping down the aisle at his feet.
It was unspoiled, a rare secluded place in the midst of this calamity tonight, the sound of crackling fire outside was only a little heard by the thick walls, and the system's prompts informed him from the first moment he stepped in that this place was also equipped with the magical power of constant praise art.
