It's hard to imagine that the Holy Church, which is run by the Majestic Scepter himself, will have two people walking side by side, but this is exactly the case, Niracek is not only an explorer, but also belongs to the fortress church, so in the face of justice, Archbishop Alex chose to shake hands with Kidd and jointly send a large number of priests and papal knights, trying to find the evil spirit festival that did not exist as soon as possible.

Perhaps it was because the Holy See was too prestigious, and no one thought that there would be uninvited guests to take advantage of it, so when Anduin and Renault walked to the lobby, they could still have a conversation from time to time.

"A long time ago, I found out that the association was mixed with twilight cultists, and the explorers' association is a loose organization after all, and the peripheral members who only have names are out of my control, so I can only make sure that the core members don't have problems, but I didn't expect that the people who are least likely to have problems have big problems."

Reynolds rubbed his big chin with stubble: "When I finished reading the letter from Carkison, I immediately remembered the past, Count Anduin, you should understand the particularity of our industry, information is often the first, enough information can allow us to find the exact point of the treasure and avoid any traps that may bring casualties, but in some previous expeditions, we spent a lot of time and carefully planned important actions, but we were preempted by others, at that time I also thought that the core members had an internal ghost, Unfortunately, no evidence was found, and Niracek was one of the few core members of these failed expeditions who participated in it all. ”

As he spoke, Renaud sighed: "On the way here, I still have a bit of luck, what if I'm wrong?" After all, Niracek is a priest who believes in the Light, and if those lies were deliberately fabricated by the Twilight believers, trying to use his mouth to turn the tiger away from the mountain, it is not impossible to do so, but unfortunately, the truth has finally gone in the direction I least want to see, thank you, Count Anduin, thank you for being a friend in the end. ”

Anduin shrugged: "If I could, I don't want to lose this friend, although he went astray, although he may have done many hurtful things, but he did not completely betray his faith until he died, but because he couldn't help himself, he had to become a victim, in fact, he could have atoned for his sins in a better way, but he chose to use death to escape, I think, in addition to a certain big man, but also because he didn't want to see, the former good explorer partner, cast a blank eye to avoid it/." ”

"And President Reynolds, what are you going to do with the aftermath of Nilasek?"

Anduin did not have the right to vote on this matter, Renault shook his head and slowly loosened his muscles: "Let's wait until everything settles, the top priority is to find the hiding place of the old Pope St. Francis as soon as possible, but to be honest, Count Anduin, I don't recommend that you also go to war, although ......"

"Although I am the embodiment of the Light?"

Anduin chuckled: "Time and time again, it has been proven that my Holy Light Incarnation is not in vain, and besides, the helper I found is also about to arrive." ”

Seeing Anduin's confident appearance, Renault was noncommittal, but took the initiative to stand in front of him, took the lead down the stairs, and came to the empty lobby, it is worth mentioning that there were no candles lit in the lobby, but it was as bright as day and no shadow, because of the magnificent and abnormal statue of holy light, emitting a dazzling light in the dark, even the priest knights who stayed in the hall turned their backs to the surroundings, and this also gave Renault the best chance to shoot.

But seeing that the expedition leader, a little on his toes, his body turned into a violent wind, and in an instant, he circled the field, and before the people left behind reacted, he knocked them all unconscious to the ground, such a sharp action, for the existence of legends, it was naturally a breeze, but he clapped his hands, but he couldn't find the next direction of action, and couldn't help frowning and wondering: "The area of the fortress church is not small, even if the old pope is most likely hiding underground, but it is not a simple matter to find the accurate entrance, Count Anduin, Are we looking separately? There's no need to search the lobby here, that entrance can't be just under the statue of the Holy Light, right? ”

"Congratulations, President Reynolds, you're right." Anduin raised a frown and slowly walked towards the statue of the Holy Light with open arms, "Benedictas and the old Pope, worthy of being real masters and apprentices, even the way of doing things is the same, I think Jones should have reported to you, the situation of the Stormwind Church, Benedictas used a special method, under the statue of Holy Light, to open up the dungeon and the Twilight Dragon's lair, as for the situation here, I think it should be to hide the Shadow Priest." ”

In fact, when Kidd and Alex left the church with a large number of people, Anduin sneaked in and asked the system to deeply scan those places that were blocked by energy, and the first scanning location he chose was near the statue of the Light, for the simple reason that a maverick Twilight priest was a living example, and then naturally helped Anduin save a lot of money.

With a puzzled Renault, he walked behind the statue, and Anduin pointed to a floor tile and asked him to dispose of it himself.

As the leader of the expedition, Renaud immediately used his professional experience to judge that there was something interesting hidden under this floor tile, and his eyes suddenly released an unbelievable look: "Holy Light Incarnation, how do you know?" ”

Hearing him mention his official title, Anduin casually pointed to the statue of the Holy Light and said, "The Holy Light doesn't like people to make small moves behind his back, so I heard him complain. ”

Hearing this, Renault's expression suddenly became extraordinarily exciting, but he did not forget the business because of this, only to see a slight pat of his palm, the floor tile and the surrounding floor tiles appeared obvious cracks, and Renault raised his palm, even the floor tile was also raised, it turned out that while he shook the floor tiles, the palm of his hand also slightly fell into the floor tiles, this scene, let Anduin sigh in his heart - real technical work!

The tiles were removed, revealing a little soil that clearly did not belong to the normal foundation, and without the guidance of Andurine, Renault found the problem, and a moment later, a deep hole into the dark underground was revealed to the two of them.

"Lord Anduin, what I wish for most now is that the Light, in addition to telling you that he doesn't like it for others to hide dirt behind his back, has given you enough power to clean up the filth."

Before entering the passage, Renault asked Anduin very solemnly, who showed the scepter of the ancient god and smiled slightly, "This is why I am called the incarnation of the Holy Light. ”

The moment he saw the ancient god's scepter, Renault's eyes immediately straightened, and even he, who was used to seeing rare treasures, couldn't help but exclaim: "This ...... Is this the eye of the ancient god Cthun? I'm sorry I'm wasting my time at this critical juncture, because it's so shocking, I've had the privilege of seeing an Old God's Eye, but that one is much smaller than this one, and it's in the hands of some legendary Shadow Priest, if I can......"

"I don't mind letting you look into it." Anduin interrupted and jerked at the underpass, "But the most important thing right now is to explore the underground. ”

[I take the liberty of asking, what if Jones wants to study?] 】

"You should know the answer."

[Yes, this thing shouldn't be hidden in a museum!] 】

To get back to business, Renault rolled up his sleeves and walked into the dark tunnels first, followed by Anduin, after a not-so-long tortuous staircase, to a dimly lit space with torches, surrounded by no people, only unadorned masonry compartments, Anduin tried to open a door, and found traces of human life in the door, spotless beds, showing that there were still people lying on it recently.

Anduin glanced around and made a judgment: "If I'm not mistaken, this is supposed to be the residence of the Shadow Priest, and it is not a henchman, so it is impossible to stay here." ”

Renaud nodded in affirmation: "I found that the section of stairs just now, which was recently opened, you see there, there are still some piles of dirt exactly the same as those on both sides of the passage, it stands to reason that the living place should not be so messy, but since this situation has arisen, then the only explanation is that these Shadow Priests willingly accompany the old Pope to complete his crazy actions, just like Nilasek who refuses to tell his secrets until he dies, leaving no way out for himself." ”

Suddenly, a wave of footsteps came from the other end of the space, and Anduin and Renault glanced at each other, and immediately flashed to the rooms on either side, holding their breath and waiting for each other to approach.

Click!

The sound of anxious footsteps coming from far and near, showing that the person who came should be in some hurry, Anduin at first thought that the two had been delaying for too long, and they had discovered the clue, but the shadow priest's voice complained and dispelled his thoughts.

"Damn, I almost messed up on such an important matter, take my things and leave quickly, so as not to be scolded by adults."

Then, the impatient Shadow Priest broke into his room in a hurry, found what he had forgotten to take with him, and then turned around and walked back quickly, someone led the way, and Anduin and Renault naturally followed quietly.

I have to say that the dragon's lair and dungeon under the Church of the Storm are nothing compared to the underground strongholds here, and they followed the Shadow Priest through the very complicated and huge buildings, and finally found their destination, a wide hall with a mysterious circle.

"Fortunately, the adults haven't arrived yet, otherwise you would be good-looking!"

A shadow priest who presided over the circle viciously snatched the bag sent by the leader, and then poured all the materials in the bag on the circle, and a beautiful light flashed, and those materials disappeared, not only did not hinder the operation of the circle, but released a more vigorous and surging power.

Seeing this, both Anduin and Renaud realized that the function of this circle was to activate the Living Crystal, and now there were two options in front of them.

Is it to wait for the old Pope St. Francis to appear, and then attack, lest he take advantage of the chaos to flee when the situation is not good?

Or do you attack directly, break the formation, and destroy the opponent's living force at the same time?

In the final analysis, Renault did not have an accurate understanding of Anduin's strength, but someone quickly made a choice for them in this answer, a dying old man who was full of life, his eyes were dark, and he was so thin that only skin and bones remained, slowly walked out of the shadows, through those gloomy eyes, and I don't know if it was a naturally formed hooked nose, Anduin and Renault's hearts invariably shuddered.

The old man's body could hardly be found with the breath of the living, and his body had already reached the point of collapse, but even so, it did not hinder his movements, which showed how terrifying his will had reached.

Anduin and Renault didn't dare to continue to show their heads, for fear of causing the old man to notice, but unfortunately, Anduin did not wear a concealed cloak, and Renault's strong strength was like a guiding light in front of the old man.

"Come out."

This voice seemed to penetrate the heart, making Anduin suddenly clench his chest, in order to soothe the pain in his heart, in contrast, the majestic Renault was not affected much, but the gradually frowning brows still showed his solemn mood.

The strength of this old pope seems to have exceeded the legendary boundary......

Renault's palms were slightly sweaty, and he was ready to fight to the death with a snap of his fingers, but just when he chose to move, a figure suddenly appeared beside him, Renault was horrified, he didn't expect the other party to choose to suddenly attack, and in a hurry, he only had time to see the other party's appearance clearly, and his eyes were discolored.

Benedictas? How could he be here?

Feeling Anduin's signal, Renault resisted the idea of striking first, and watched Benedictas in a white robe walk out, and in an instant, there was a burst of shock.

"You dare to come back after eating something outside the grill?"

"Benedictas, you really opened my eyes, betrayed the adult, and did not apologize with death!"

"At this point, you're still laughing? Yes, if you don't laugh, it's not the famous Benedictas, since you dare to appear, it means that you have enough hole cards to save your life? Take it out and let's take a look, I hope it doesn't disappoint too much! ”

The Shadow Priests in the field all regarded Benedictas an enemy of life and death, and tried their best to be sarcastic, but it was clear that the one who should be excited the most was extremely calm.

"Stop talking, it's just an impostor." The old Pope saw through the flaws in summoning his followers at a glance, just because he was familiar with everything about Benedictas, far from being comparable to the demon warlock Lynn, "I don't want to repeat it, Renault, and the so-called incarnation of the Holy Light, don't think you can use these little tricks to hide from me." ”

"Although I am dying of old age, I am not blind in my eyes, and for Benedictas's sake, Anduin, I can spare your life."

The old Pope's tone was extremely indifferent, but it was also extremely cold: "However, you must kill Renault with your own hands as your vote." ”
