The four of them left Baldur's Gate with a simple understanding and hurried towards the Friendly Arm.

The Friendly Arm is not far from Baldur's Gate, it is located halfway between Belgoust and Baldur's Gate, which are less than 2 hours away. And while on the way, Acoste also had a rough idea of the true difficulty of this task.

It is true that Rayssel fell to the priest of level 12 in his previous life as written in the quest scroll, but the priest level of the other party after the fall has not been lost, or even reduced! Although after the fall, Resel lost his divine grace, which was the divine magic given by Haim. But his spell-casting ability has been taken to the other extreme, from a holy light-like magic to a vicious necromantic spell. In this case, it is definitely impossible to say that it is a natural fall, there must be some unknown insiders in it, and even if there is a devil's figure, it is not surprising, after all, the devil's favorite thing is to seduce the clergy to fall. The reason for Reesel's fall is also very bizarre, a group of gnolls suddenly attack the Friendly Arm, killing one of the town's Lady Berry, whom he has been crushing with at first sight, and the body is bitten to pieces. Later, in the temple, Resel actually dreamed about it that night, and the next day when he rushed to his crush's house, the bloody scene drove him crazy. He hates those gnolls, but he hates the temple of the god of guards, if it weren't for his identity as a priest, maybe he would have married and had children with Berry a long time ago [clergy are not allowed to marry], if the gnolls are the direct murderer, then the temple is an accomplice! Anger caused him to lose his mind and ignore the irrationality of the matter itself. He didn't think about why the Gnolls, who were dying out near the Friendly Arm, could storm the town and kill Berry alone, why he could dream so strangely in the temple. The frenzied Raythel fell, tore off his badge representing Heim, and ran out of the Arm of Friendship with Berry's mutilated corpse in his arms. The second time he was seen was in a public cemetery outside the town, when he cast an evil spell to awaken the dead, and then he disappeared from view and was never seen again.

However, the problem before everyone is that since Raythel has mastered the ability to summon necromancy, they now have to deal with not only an evil priest with a spell level of 12 or more, but also no less than 100 skeletons and zombies summoned under his command. That is, the priest who was not very mentally in his mind and his army of the dead cowered in the deep mountains and old forests and did not come out to make trouble, otherwise this kind of thing would definitely alarm the entire Baldur's Gate, which was a force enough to slaughter the village and destroy the town. "Didn't you find anything else unusual during your investigation?" After arriving at the Friendly Arm, the group went to the tavern that also bears this name, found a table and sat down, and the three of them continued to discuss the mission until now. "No, I know what you're worried about. But we do not see any other evil. Ling sat down and ordered a bottle of ale to herself. When the bartender came up, she quietly used a charm technique, and the bartender, who had no profession, naturally couldn't pass the exemption, and left without asking for money after serving the wine with saliva. "Hey, why are you looking at me like this, Li Qing and I have run out of money, otherwise why do you think we are taking on such a dangerous mission." Ling was speechless when he said a word, and Yacoste had the heart to inquire why they were able to cross the endless sea from the Eastern Country to Faerun, but no matter how he knocked Ling and Li Qing along the way, he just didn't say anything, and Yacoste had to stop there.

After a night's rest, Acoste and the group set off again, heading straight for the mission's target location, an abandoned mine on the west side of the Arm of Friendship, where witnesses saw Raysel finally enter. Before entering the mine, Acoste distributed the holy water that had been distributed from the temple during the last time he dealt with demons to Ling and Li Qing. Since there are undead creatures such as skeletons and zombies in it, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no such things as ghosts and resentful spirits. And this kind of thing ordinary metal weapons have no effect at all, although Acoste himself has two magic attribute weapons, but Ling and Li Qing obviously don't, but these ordinary adventurers generally have their own methods, and the most common one is to smear holy water on their weapons.

After everything was ready, Acoste took the lead in entering the cave with a gust of wind, Li Qing walked in the second place of the team as a warrior monk, Lavis was protected by everyone in the middle, and Ling walked at the end of the team to ensure the safety of the rear. This abandoned pit is not deep, it is said that a few decades ago the people of the Friendly Arm discovered a vein here, but after digging it for a long time, they found that it was a depleted vein, and the more you dig into it, the less you will produce, and over time this side will be abandoned. Acoster really doesn't know if the guy named Raysel has plummeted after he fell, otherwise how could he run to a place where this kind of bird doesn't and live a homely life.

After two turns, Yacoste and the others came to the deepest part of the pit. A guy in a tattered priest's robe was sitting there, needless to say it was Rayssel. Next to him was a monster stitched together from a broken corpse, and from the outside, he recognized the other person as a young woman. Raysel heard the movement and glanced up at the four heavily armed people, but he didn't mean to move, he was still concentrating on playing with the corpse's crooked head, trying to straighten her.

"Reesel, the dead will not come back to life, you better accept your fate." Acoster felt sick, but his heart was more sympathetic and understanding, and he knew the pain in Rayser's heart very well. Because if he found out that someone had killed Lavis, he would have gone crazy himself, and maybe he would have done something even more excessive than Resser. After all, at that time, Reesel still only had a little conscience of his own, and he didn't kill the innocent civilians around him to vent his anger!

"Hahahaha, what did I hear? Someone wants to ruin our happy life. Raysel was instantly furious when he heard Acoste's words! He stood up and screamed at Acoste, "Why don't you hypocrites let us go!" I've already lost Berry once for those damn duties, and now you want to ruin our lives, tell me, why! What did we do wrong to make you treat us like this! ”

Looking at Reesel's heart-rending yell, Acoste wanted to refute but found that he couldn't say anything. However, Ling at the back of the line stood up, she put away her usual smile that saw through the world, and said to Raysel with a sinking face.

"Look at the Berry you love, she's dead, but even if you're dead, you won't let go of her soul. It's you who really tortures her, you don't really love her! ”

"Lies! Sling the bull! You damn guys should die, come out! My legion of the dead! [There was a familiar sense of immediacy when he wrote this sentence] "Raysel was already crazy, he shouted and raised his hands, and with his movements, the temperature of the originally gloomy mine actually dropped a few points. Countless palms with carrion or bones protrude from the ground!
