Chapter 236: Jiang is still old and spicy
When Shepard finally got on board, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the captain of the smuggling ship looked at him with blank eyes: "Honored guests, where are we going?" ”
Shepard glanced at the two dozen pirates on the same ship and waved his hand: "To the north, I still have some things to do." ”
Since the person who can really call the shots on this ship has decided the direction, the smuggling captain can only look at the others helplessly, indicating that he has no power to decide, and then waved his arms at the sailors: "What are you bastards still doing!" Raise the sails! ”
"Roar!"
The crew members who escaped death had no opinion on where to go, as long as they didn't stay in this hellish place, the magma in the distance had already flowed into the city, and even the fog that rushed to the sky could not stop the increasingly vigorous fire, and at this moment, the mage tower in the center of the city suddenly released an amazing wave of magic power, and even the thick fog was blown away, revealing the tall mage tower that shone like a midnight lighthouse.
Everyone on the ship was amazed at the terrible scene before the mage tower was activated, only Shepard crossed his arms and sneered, one hand secretly pinched the count, and when he counted to five, his fist clenched suddenly, and at the same moment, the mage tower where the teleportation spell ran to the critical moment suddenly burst out with dazzling holy light, even the magic enchantment and teleportation spell could not hide this strong light, as if someone put the sun into the tower in an instant.
"Oh God! What's going on......"
Someone among the sailors subconsciously exclaimed, only to see that the mage tower, which had become half-real and half-illusory, suddenly distorted like the air above the flames, and disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving only a black energy mass more than ten meters high in the distance, this black light cluster shrank and rose, and Shepard immediately shouted: "Get down!" ”
After saying that, he didn't care who was standing next to him, and pressed the nearest two people down, and the others reacted quickly, and immediately lay on the boat, only to hear a loud bang in the distance, like winter thunder exploding in their ears, and before everyone could recover from the trembling of the thunder, a shock wave like a storm rushed out of Luskan, blowing houses and land along the way, rolling up countless roof walls and wreckage, and rushing into the port unstoppably.
A few close ships couldn't dodge, and were covered with bruises by the countless debris swept up by the wind, but what was even more terrifying was that the boats were in a hurry to sail away, and at this time the wind blew, and many ships were blown crooked into the sea, and the debris in the wind swarmed into the water, and there was no need to think about it to know that there were probably not many survivors.
The smuggling ship naturally couldn't hide, but fortunately they were far enough away, and there was not much debris left when the wind blew, although the aftermath of the explosion caused by the distortion of time and space also blew the smuggling ship crookedly, but it also made the sails puff up, and the smuggling captain rushed to the steering wheel at the critical moment, desperately hitting the rudder to the side, and making the smuggling boat row a big circle against the strong wind, and rushed into the vast Sword Bay in a thrilling and exciting way.
"Whew...... "It wasn't until the wind weakened and the smuggling ship slowly returned to normal that the captain, who had been holding on to the rudder, finally gasped and leaned on the rudder, looking at Shepard and the others who slowly stood up, and said with a bitter face: "Guest, guest............ We, we should be okay, right? ”
Shepard, who stood up, looked back at Luskan who was caught in the fire, and smiled back, "It looks like we escaped." ”
A few weak cheers sounded, and the sailors and pirates who were desperately trying to hold on to the things next to them to fix themselves were not in much of a mood to cheer, and looked at Shepard and Female Drow who were standing on the deck calmly with complicated eyes, and added another layer of awe to their strength.
The creaking sound of the wooden plank deformation sounded, and with a snap, an arm-long wooden stick fell off from the mast somewhere, and a hemp rope tied to it also fell on the deck, Shepard looked at the smuggling captain and said casually: "It seems that we are going to dock as soon as possible and repair your ship urgently." ”
The smuggling captain said yes with a sad face.
……
The druid, who was guarding the altar of the father of oaks, was still praying sincerely, and the sacred pillar of light that was sprinkled like a green leaf fell on the altar, and the vibration on the altar like the pulse of the earth gradually subsided, and the natural gems on it had disappeared.
“…… Our Lord has blessed you, and may nature protect you. The druid glanced at the three of them, and was not aware of Fanny's lack of natural blessings, but only saluted Morel and said in a gentle tone.
With a certain brilliance on his face at the moment, Morel looked at the druid and said word by word, "Sir, what are you going to do next?" ”
The druid looked at the still barren plains around him, turned around and smiled, "My lord has blessed this land, and I want to let the cycle of nature reappear in this forbidden area of life...... Both animals and humans deserve to live in peace on this land. ”
Morel was in awe, and said in a low voice: "You must know that this is not a simple matter. ”
"I understand." The druid's expression was relaxed, but his tone was very calm: "Ten years? Twenty years? Maybe my whole life will be dedicated to this land...... But so what, this is the fate of the druids, human beings have always wantonly destroyed nature, leaving shocking scars on the cycle of life and the unity of all things, I can't wield a butcher's knife against those who are also part of nature, then all I can do is to use my own hands to mend the wounds of nature. ”
"With the support of my Lord, I am confident that this will succeed, because the natural way of the cycle of all things is also the way of the world."
Morel looked at the druid's determined eyes, opened his mouth and couldn't speak, this is the druid's belief, and it is also the life creed he abides by, he can get close to nature and the gods because of his firmness, if he betrays this belief, he also betrays the meaning of his existence.
The four of them fell silent for a moment, and Fanny, who was tall and sexy, stood behind Morel and looked at the altar that had been restored to its ordinary, not knowing what was going on in her mind, but the awkward silence did not last long, because Shepard arrived with Eleanor at this time.
"It looks like your curse has been lifted, and it's a great thing to congratulate."
Shepard smiled and spoke, seeing the druid turn his head, without waiting for the other party to speak, he first handed over the horn that appeared in his hand at some point: "I got this thing by accident, it's of no use to me, it's better to give it to you." ”
The druid took the horn in surprise, and as soon as he held it in his hand, he almost jumped up in surprise, he knew what it was the moment he held the horn, and looked at Shepard in surprise and excitement: "This is ...... Nature is on top! It's a lost relic! When the teacher asked me to come, he asked me to look for it...... I didn't expect, God, I didn't expect, Lord Earl, I, I can't put into words how grateful I am to you......"
The druids are not crazy, they will not fool Shepard with words such as this is the father of nature asking you to return the holy relics to me, if the other party is also a believer in the true gods, this is simply an insult to the other party, and there is no one in the Old World who has no faith at all, so the believers of all people are very objective in this regard.
Shepard waved his hand absently: "You can do a good deed every day." "The holy relics of the god of nature in his hands are simply a hot potato, it is better to return it, there is a lesson from the god of knowledge, he does not believe that the powerful divine power of the god of nature has no understanding of his identity, in this case, it is certainly better to show favor than to offend.
Morel, who had been looking down in contemplation, suddenly raised his head, he first glanced at Shepard, then looked at the druids and said, "Sir, can you please be my mentor and teach me the way of nature?" I am willing to work with you to restore this barren and barren land! ”
Morel spoke in surprise, Shepard glanced at the green leaf mark on his eyebrows, smiled and said nothing, the druid was a little surprised, as if he had expected it, sighed softly, and said happily: "You really have a natural kindness and generosity hidden in your heart...... Originally, I was only an intermediate druid and could not accept apprentices, but with the blessing of my lord, I not only broke through the advanced level, but also touched the barrier of epic, so since you are willing to follow me and follow the path of nature, I will teach you everything I know. ”
Morrell's face was calm, and he saluted the druid, "Mentor." ”
Shepard looked at the two of them, as if he saw the two great druids who would definitely have a place on the mainland stage in the future of the Northlands, plus the one in Moss City, the three great druids were enough to ensure the interests and status of the nature gods in the nearby more than a dozen large and small kingdoms and city-states, and the foresight of the nature gods was amazing.
Not only did he destroy Luskan and appease the anger of the land, but he also took the opportunity to brand this vast land as an Oak Sect, which was a bit petty compared to Shepard's act of entering the human kingdom in person, becoming a nobleman, and taking the opportunity to develop his faith.
"Looks like I still have a long way to go." Shepard laughed at himself in his heart, but he also knew that there was too much gap between himself and the ancient powerful divine power of Sivannas, although everyone was a god, but they didn't know how many years they had accumulated, and the breadth and universality of their beliefs were far from being comparable to that of his new god.
Seeing the rise of the druid and Morrell's chat, Fanny and Sylvie silently followed, and Shepard, who had just come to return the horn, quietly left with Eleanor.
"Master, where are we going?" The female drow asked with a wink.
The two walked up a high slope, looking at the blurred boundary between the sea and the sky in the distance, and the smuggling boats moored on the coast in the distance, Shepard looked up at the blue sky, and said in a relaxed tone: "After coming out for so long, it's time to go back and have a look." ”21010
