Chapter 64: The long-awaited progression

"Looks like we're not welcome here!" Saying this, Clematis moved his arm, "Ladies of the 'Good Dragon God' Church, if you want to avoid it, then please hurry up. Some of the violence that may occur next will have an impact on your faction's tendencies. ”

"You don't have to be violent! Those who were just ordinary mountain people should be able to easily break their resistance if they stirred fear in their hearts. Prophet Chomli squinted at his two crescent-like eyes. And the 'Bloodstained Gray Flower' players who heard this immediately had the thought of 'you seem to be very experienced in this area' in their hearts.

Clematis, who had just made that suggestion, immediately turned his head to look at Barrett, apparently throwing away his baggage. And Barrett, who is the captain of the 'Bloodstained Gray Flower' mercenary group, had to stand up and come up with an idea at this time. He was silent for a moment, and then said, "How sure are you, prophet, in this matter?" ”

"From my experience, it only takes a small spell to break them down." Prophet Chomli nodded affirmatively, "With the psychological shadow you left on them in the previous encounter. As long as one person is the first to lose control of their emotions, the will to fight of the remaining people will be completely broken. ”

"Like a bombing camp?" Barrett immediately understood the other party's intentions.

Prophet Chomli nodded, "That's right! It's like bombing a camp. Judging from your performance last time, I'm 80 percent sure about this. After the chaos was caused, we took the opportunity to slam the door open. At that time, they will probably lose even the last bit of desire to resist. ”

"Knock the door open?" Barrett turned his head to look at the gate of the camp. This wooden door, which was previously unnoticed by players, is also made of logs. It looks rough, but considering the materials, it's quite sturdy.

Of course, with Barrett's strength, it is not difficult to break it. But who knows if the villagers of Tululu Village have set any traps near this gate in the past few days when the players have entered the mountain to slay the dragon. Although judging by the level of Tululu Village, such a trap would not be able to threaten Barrett's life. But if you are disgraced, it is also uncomfortable.

Thinking of this, Barrett shook his head: "It's better to let the mage use the fireball technique to smash the door open." That would be a more deterrent and would further break their will to resist. ”

Although he was planning for his own sake, Barrett also took into account the overall plan - so the words he said naturally seemed high-sounding.

"Alright! Then my target is the guy at the sentry. Prophet Chomli gestured to the place, "Let Miss Mage's spells follow, and I'll need to smash open the gates of the village when the chaos is at its highest." ”

"Rielly prepares to cast a spell." After getting the result he wanted, Barrett immediately patted the mage on the shoulder. The latter nodded, and began to stare at the gate of Tululu Village. The prophet Chomley, who was on the side, asked Miss Venteris to add a 'protective arrow' to herself, and began to approach the camp in front of him.

Perhaps the last battle had cast too much shadow on the fellows, and the hillman at the sentry point, though holding a homemade shortbow (the original compound longbow had either been destroyed or became the spoils of the dragon slayers), did not dare to attack the prophet Chomli.

Then, at the moment when the prophet Chomli stopped moving his fingers, the expression of the mountain man on the sentry began to distort, and then he let out a piercing scream. It wasn't like a high-pitched scream that a man could make, it was just a short silence. Soon there was a second scream in the village of Tululu, followed by a third and a fourth......

In a short period of time, the screams behind the log wall came and went, and the entire Tululu village was like a hundred ghosts walking at night, and the mountain people were frightened on a large scale. Soon in addition to the screams, there was the sound of clashing and the breaking of pottery from behind the log fence - it was clear that there was already a mess in it.

Seizing the moment, Rielly smashed the prepared fireball into the door. As the log splicing door completely carbonized and collapsed in the flames, the trap behind the door was also pressed out by the charcoal. Looking at the sharpened stakes in the pit, Barrett grinned: "Old-fashioned trick! Do you really think that anyone will be fooled? ”

Taking advantage of the chaos of the villagers of Tululu Village, and the shock caused by the fireballs. These dragon slayers soon arrived at the mountain village again as victors. After some whips and scolding, the mountain people, who had already been in chaos, finally got a good shape.

Under the threat of force, the members of the two teams quickly found their mounts in the village - this was not the original threat of Barrett, otherwise they would not have been on guard when they saw the group. Rather, it was because the villagers had heard from the merchants who had brought them salt and compound bows that living horses were valuable. Obviously, in their opinion, Barrett and his party, along with the former village chief, have become food for the evil dragon. So it's very comfortable to occupy these horses.

However, whether it was the 'Bloodstained Gray Flower' mercenary group or the 'Silver Seal' team, they didn't have time to delay these villagers. Although everyone understands that none of them are clean, except for the children who still don't remember. But not every one of them needs to be hung on the gallows.

If you want to completely identify and solve the problem, the time spent is wasted. And these two teams that have just succeeded in slaying dragons are now in a hurry to go back and submit their tasks. More importantly, large-scale trials without the permission of the lord are likely to be prosecuted, even in villages outside the actual area of rule. For the Church of the Dragon God of Good, who wants to obtain mining rights, that could cause problems with their plans.

So for now, you can only ignore this sinful mountain village for the time being, and leave their fate to the local lords who will know the truth in the future. However, in the hands of that lord, what will happen to them in the end, naturally it is not a matter for the dragon slayers to care.

Although the two teams on the way home did not have any guides, the people present were not fledgling little hairy heads. When following the guide into the mountain earlier, the halfling wanderer had already drawn a brief map and made a few numbers at the fork in the mountain road. So when Ralphs led the way with that map, the players traveled much faster than they had come.

The two teams that left the mountains did not go straight to the town where the local lords, the Chatrice family, were located, but rushed all the way towards Ulrik. Although Chomli didn't say it, Barrett also knew that something as big as the mining of diamond mines could not be the responsibility of the clergy who was out to lead the team. It must be the high-level of the 'Dragon God of Good' Church that will be valued by the Chatrice family. After that, the cooperation can have a relatively good start.

In less than three-quarters of the time, the dragon slayers had returned in triumph and stepped through the gates of Ulrik. Next, the two sides didn't even bother to wash, so they went straight to the stronghold of the 'Good Dragon God' Church here. No sooner had they stepped through the gates of the colony, and the halfling wanderer couldn't wait to submit his mission. Immediately afterwards, he was led into the corridor by a waiter, and it seemed that he had gone to perform the rituals necessary for advancement.

And the prophet Chomli also came to the players after handling the task handover in his own hands: "It will take about 1-2 hours to count and estimate the loot. After all, the value of some of these things fluctuates every day on the mainland. So no matter who it's thinking about, they need a little time. ”

"Don't worry! Ms. Chomley, we are not people who have not seen the world. It's not that you can't even wait for this little bit of time. Barrett smiled at this, "What's more, someone's ritual hasn't been completed yet." ”

"Have you figured out how to cash in the loot? I remember that Madam Mage wanted a convenient house similar to the one I owned. Prophet Chomli gestured to the counter not far away, "I just asked you by the way. There are two other items in the church that are in stock of this curiosity. However, because of the different interior furnishings, there are some small differences in price. One of them is quoted at 21,000 gold coins, while the other is 20,300 gold coins. If you want, you can choose as soon as possible. ”

Barrett, who heard this, turned his head to look at Rieli who was sitting at the other end: "Are you sure you must buy this thing?" I think it's actually good for people to use 'Magic Rope' now. ”

"Barrett, why are you like this?"

"A man who is inconsiderate of women will die alone."

Before Rielly could speak, the two eldest ladies, Clematis and Claudia, were the first to protest. On the issue of improving their own living conditions, the two big financiers definitely stood on the side of the little financier. As soon as the three of them merged, the two men, Anvil and Barrett, could only nod in agreement after looking at each other.

"Then you decide which one you want to redeem first!" Speaking of this, the prophet Chomli reminded in particular, "Wait and let the noodles in your team come forward to exchange them, or the price will be higher than I said." By the way, in addition to the loot, this time your mission rewards have also been re-evaluated due to the change of opponents. After deducting the advanced needs of the halfling, it will probably be clear when he comes out. ”

Soon the three ladies who asked for the exchange list from the counter fell into a quarrel again:

"Choose this wonder of 'Warm Home'! According to the description above, I like the decoration style of the house and the style of the furniture! ”

"Nope! I think the 'Sleeping Cottage' is better, the velvet mattress is much more comfortable than the cotton mattress. ”

"Don't just think about the bed!" Cosy Home' also has extra kitchenware too! When the time comes, Barrett will also be able to show his skills in the wild......"

Looking at the three ladies who were in a state of shopping, Barrett and Anvil had no choice but to find a place to sit down and close their eyes. Fortunately, they didn't endure it long, and the halfling wanderer, who had completed the ritual, rescued the two: "Guys! Have you noticed any changes in me? ”

"This, it really hasn't changed!" Barrett walked around the noodles, looked up and down, and came up with this answer.

Hearing this, the halfling wanderer immediately turned his attention to his friend. It's a pity that the anvil also shook his head - Dormel's killer is a killer anyway, and the more inconspicuous the user is like this, the better (unfortunately some of its abilities are linked to charm, which is really a very painful thing), how can it make the appearance of the advanced person change?

After crouching down and patting the halfling wanderer on the shoulder, Barrett immediately turned the subject back to his goal: "Leave the styling alone. Let's talk about what abilities you've gained! ”

"Now that I'm able to use the ability to detect evil and sneak attack like a paladin, I've also been improved. Also gains the Grim Reaper's Touch effect once a day. And thanks to the perception is not bad, now you can still use the magic of 1 ring once a day...... "The halfling wanderer was immediately interested at this time.

Listening to the story of the noodles, Barrett understands that although the advanced level of Dormel's Killer can use divine magic. However, as with the Assassin of the Evil Orientation, the number of spells available for this class is quite limited. Noodles now only have eight one-ring magic skills to choose from: Blessing Weapon, Transfiguration, Fortune Vision, Divine Grace, Illusion, Hidden Mist, Spider Walk, and Heavenly Illusion. And in the future, there are only these 8 choices on top of the first ring.

Most of these magic techniques are the general magic of the priest, but the magic of 'Heavenly Illusion' is relatively rare. It was a gift from the Celestial Radiance to the Killer of Dommel - the user's words gave an evil target creature a temporary glimpse of the blessings and joy from the Seven Celestial Mountains, causing him to be shocked and remorse for his evil deeds in that moment.

If the target is unable to pass the immunity, the target creature will be stunned for the next 6 seconds. In addition, as the creature is moved by the coming redemption, its will check will be reduced by -1 for the next 24 hours.

Although there is a possibility of failure, if it succeeds, it will be a rare and powerful control. It's a pity that considering that noodles are not too high in perception, I'm afraid he doesn't have a bottom in his heart when using this spell! However, being able to get the ability to cast spells is already a good improvement for the Wanderer. At this time, if you ask for more, it will seem a little greedy. (To be continued.) )
