Chapter Seventy-Seven: Martyrdom
The high priest who was not a believer in the church naturally couldn't understand this sentence that the church pastor often said at the funeral of the deceased, but it didn't affect him to perceive the other party's malice, so he glared at Shepard angrily and said viciously: "You?!" Sure enough, you colluded with that woman to hurt me? ”
"Bastard, he doesn't even respect the gods he believes in, and he is already a beast." The so-called butt decides the head, seeing that the high priest has completely turned his back on the gods, Shepard, who is the current boss of the goddess of spring water, has a cold expression, and the long sword is shocked, Tai Chong is useless in this kind of battle, so he jumped, light as a feather, but in fact, his body approached the high priest extremely quickly, and the cold light flashed, and the sword blade was pointed directly at the throat of the high priest!
"Roar!"
Seeing the boss make a move, knowing that he had reached the finishing stage, Taichong, who was not low in wisdom, roared around the middle battlefield, and took a high priest's guard in his mouth, only to hear a few clicks, and the poor warrior was left with only a headless corpse falling into the dust.
"Phew."
Tai Chong spit out the head in his mouth with great disdain, it is also a divine creature worshipped, and Shepard has warned that it will not do such a thing as cannibalism.
Not to mention the huge change in the morale of both sides caused by the giant dog, the high priest's face was grim, and he took a step back to avoid the sharp edge, but the spear in his hand was too late to drop, so he could only meet the blade with the long sword in his other hand, trying to block this murderous blow.
Shepard's face remained unchanged, and the connection with the ontology made him borrow divine power from the godhead again, you must know that the godhead is unique, so it is only available in the ontological spiritual sea, although the doppelganger can borrow divine power without hindrance, but it still has to turn his hand.
The standard part of the divine power was used, and the effect was immediate, and the clone's intuitive strength increased suddenly, but there was no abnormality on his face, and he let the high priest's sword slash him.
Clang!
A crisp sound of gold and iron clashing sounded, the long sword in Shepard's hand barely changed, but the weapon in the high priest's hand was broken in two, and the look of shock on his face had not yet receded, he had already reacted extremely quickly to turn over and dodge the blade, and kicked extremely insidiously on the broken sword that had not yet fallen, so that the broken sword flew towards Shepard like a hidden weapon.
The Revenant has always been a veteran of both archery and swordsmanship, otherwise how can he have the confidence to come and go freely in the wilderness full of dangers, Shepard, a doppelganger, has been studying the dark elf swordsmanship for a long time, and has already thoroughly studied the unique footwork and professional skills of Dan Morris Drow, at this time, it is only extremely light to avoid the flying broken sword, and as soon as the long sword is slightly withdrawn, it will take advantage of the situation to slash towards the high priest.
The high priest was helpless, and blood flowed from a sword mark on his face, but he was almost cut open by Shepard in the middle of dodging just now, and he swept over with a spear in his hand, trying to force the enemy back.
However, Shepard's swordsmanship suddenly became sharp, not only holding the hilt of the sword in both hands, but also slamming it towards the spear that swept over.
With a click, Shepard, who was clearly bullying people with the advantage of weapons, cut off the spear with a sword, and the high priest only had half of the spear left in his hand, and he didn't dare to block Shepard again, but retreated to the queen's side, holding the queen with one hand and trying to break through from other directions.
"Uh......" A sharp pain suddenly came from his waist, and what made the high priest even more unacceptable was the person who did it, he looked down at the queen who stabbed the short dagger into his waist, and was still wondering how his body could be stabbed so easily by an ordinary dagger, but suddenly saw the water flowing in the queen's eyes.
He laughed miserably: "It turns out ...... Ahem......"
The water in the queen's eyes disappeared, and as if she had suddenly woken up from a nightmare, she screamed and tried to cover the wound on the high priest's waist, but she did not know where to start, but only screamed without a master: "God! What's going on?! What happened?! Honey I'm not...... Not me...... Me, what do I do...... Stop the bleeding, yes, I should stop the bleeding......"
"Ahem...... No, this is the result I had expected for a long time......" The high priest's divine grace was broken, and at this time only his hard-working physique remained, he coughed up blood, looked at the doppelganger who had stopped the pursuit, and Tai Chong, who had already surrounded and killed his only remaining guards, but only laughed a few times miserably, and said nothing.
The High Priest looked down at the queen, and the exhaustion of the hard work had already surged into his brain like a tide, and the blood flowed from the several wounds left by the battle with Shepard, and the broken wounds on his waist almost dyed half of his body bright red.
He didn't pay attention to the wounds on his body, his eyes were a little dilated, but he just reached out and dragged the queen's cheek, and murmured, "I...... Ahem, what if I ...... Ahem, if there's a chance to do it all over again...... Ahem, ahem...... I don't want anything, I just take you with me...... Ahem, I'll take you ......."
The queen also cried like a tearful person at this time, and the tears could not stop rolling down: "You don't want to, you don't want to die!" Let's get out, let's get out together! The dead man can't find us, let's go find a place where no one knows us, and I'm going to give you a baby......"
"Ahem...... Silly Woman...... Ahem......" The high priest smiled helplessly, and then there was a powerful snort of the giant dog, Tai Chong had already gone around behind them to prevent them from escaping, he looked at Shepard, and said weakly: "...... Cough...... Mighty messenger, I, can I ask you to ......"
Shepard shook his head expressionlessly and said, "I know what you're going to say, but no, you both have to die here, and both the queen and you have to pay for what you did......"
The High Priest laughed miserably and said, "You...... Ahem, I only understand now, it must be because of you...... Forget it, it's just that this stupid woman is afraid of pain...... Ahem, don't let her suffer, okay? ”
"Nope! Don't you ......" The queen was still quite bold at this time, she turned to Shepard, tore off her clothes to reveal the covered plump and slippery, and pleaded to Shepard: "Messenger! Emissary! I beg you, I can give myself to you and spare him! Is it okay to let him go?! ”
Shepard turned his head away from looking at the queen, who was on the verge of collapse, and his voice was still calm: "Queen, please don't do this, you are dishonoring the king and the high priest who has been protecting you by your side. ”
"Silly woman...... Don't do this...... Ahem, I can only let you die with me......" The high priest didn't care about the queen's movements, just touched her long hair and laughed miserably.
The queen knelt on the ground and wept silently, and at this time the high priest was also getting weaker and weaker in the blood loss, Shepard slowly walked up to him, looked at the hope in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, I will give the queen a decent one." ”
The cold light flickered, and a glimmer of relief flashed in the high priest's closed eyes.
