Chapter 48: The Priesthood

Just as Dane was lamenting the power of the gods, a woman dressed in white sacrificial robes came from the back of the temple. www.biquge.info She had long silvery-white hair that fell to her knees, her skin as white as moonlight did not have even the slightest blemish, she was dressed in plain white clothes, and she didn't see any ornaments, except for a turquoise forehead guard, and a white gem about a quarter the size of a palm in the middle of her forehead. She is amorous, but so noble that people have no intention of blaspheming; She has a fairy-like holiness, but a motherly affinity.

She walked up to Dain, bowed slightly, and said, "Hello, Sir Dain, I am Eslor, priest of the Holy Spirit, in your service. ”

The sound is also like a spring breeze.

With such a beautiful woman in front of him, Dane's old man also became a gentleman: "Ah, hello, Eslor, I am Dane, the master of Orinedu. After introducing himself a little, he couldn't help but praise: "You are so beautiful." ”

"Thank you, Lord." Eslor responded generously.

After a short period of nonsense, Dane finally didn't forget his business. He took a small piece of Sombra from his bosom, handed it to Eslor, and asked, "Lady Priestess, do you know anything like this?" ”

Ethlor took the chip from Dain's hand and immediately recognized what it was: "Sombra? And is it Sombra corrupted by the power of the evil gods? My lord, how did you get this thing? ”

Dane stomped his foot and said, "In that world beneath our feet, from some faceless monsters called 'Cultists of Cthulhu'. ”

Eslor's face became very serious, and her eyebrows, which were as beautiful as a crescent moon, also wrinkled: "This is a very serious matter, Cruzur, it still exists?" ”

"What is Cthulhu?"

Ethlor explained, "Cthulhu is an ancient evil god. There are three different types of gods and goddesses in this world. The new gods, the old gods, and the old rulers are also the old gods. ”

"Once upon a time, the Old Gods controlled the entire world, they controlled the world with infinite power, and they took all living beings as slaves. Later, the awakened Old Gods defeated the Old Gods and sealed them in all corners of the world, freeing the world, deposing all worshippers of the Old Gods and creating new beings. The new gods, on the other hand, are the followers of the ancient gods, or the gods who are born into gods, and when the old gods are gradually gone, the new gods dominate the changes and rules of everything in the world. The father of the great elves is one of the old gods. He nurtured the elves, and with the help of the new gods of the elven gods, he blessed the prosperity of the elves. ”

"And the old gods are the enemies of all living beings. They curse all life, they hate everything in the world. But, fortunately, almost all of the old gods have disappeared hundreds of millions of years ago, some say that their bodies have been divided into countless parts and sealed, some say that they have been completely wiped out. And the old gods gradually stopped paying attention to the changes in the world, and now the new gods dominate the world. There are only a few legends about the old gods circulating around the world, and many of the old rulers have not even left their names. ”

"Cthulhu is an old god who has left his name, the god of the deep sea, who controlled all the seas of the world of Orodic in the last era. Legend has it that with seventy-two different tentacles and forty-five different eyes, it is one of the most powerful of the Old Dominators, and even has the ability to confront the Old Gods. ”

"Legend has it that during the war of the gods hundreds of millions of years ago, the Lord of Light, Fran, the God of Tyranny, Bane, and the Great Shiloh, the three ancient gods joined forces to destroy Cthulhu. But, unexpectedly, it also left such an admirer of the branch in this world. ”

The more Eslor's words were heard, the more terrified Dane became. What did it all do with the god wars of the last era, and the old rulers, which he never knew about? He was quite skeptical of this, and if it weren't for the fact that the Hearts of Dynasty system clearly marked those Faceless monsters as 'Worshippers of Cthulhu', he would have thought that Eslor was telling him stories.

Looking at Dane's expression, Eslor said, "Don't believe it. Except for a small number of priests and priests of the Old Gods, there are almost no one who can know the Old Rulers and the legends of Cthulhu, and even some of the Churches of the New Gods may not even have the legends of the Old Gods. However, you don't have to worry too much, this was eons ago after all, and Cthulhu must not exist anymore. As for these so-called Faceless Ones, they are just remnants of sins. ”

Touching his chin, Dane thought about it for a moment and decided not to bother with it. The legend of hundreds of millions of years ago has an egg relationship with the present? Unless Ethlor said that Cthulhu was beneath the island of Cormierya, all he had to think about was some faceless monster. He didn't want to deal with a so-called Old Gods - and he couldn't do anything about it.

So, Dane said, "Okay, we don't care about the old gods, I just want to ask you, is there any way to purify this corrupted Sombra?" ”

Esloel said, "Yes, in the temple, I can complete the purification of Sombra alone. ”

Dane was overjoyed: "Great, then I'll trouble you." ”

"Yes, no problem." Eslor answered, and gently chanted two incantations in the ancient upper elf language, only to see a white light emerge between her ten fingers, and the black crystal she held in the palm of her hand became crystal clear after about a few minutes. It's still black, but it looks more transparent, and it's no longer as dirty as before.

Dane looked at Eslor's finished work with satisfaction and grinned, "Not bad...... I still have fourteen chests, so please help me purify them, Lord Priest. ”

Eslor's face was pale: "Fourteen boxes? Sir Dain, don't be kidding me. ”

Dane looked puzzled: "Huh? What am I kidding you? ”

"To purify a piece of black crystal, I need to release a purification technique, fourteen boxes? I ...... "Looking at Eslor's appearance, it seems that she almost burst into a foul mouth." Of course, the noble and holy priestess could not really speak foul language, and she said, "I beg your pardon for not being able to do anything! ”
