Chapter 154: The High Priest of Darkness I
"It's none of my business......"
Regarding Ron's words, the purple-robed priest on the other end of the communication stone looked very indifferent, and said gloomily: "The church has given you a series of conveniences, allowing you to develop in Arabe for more than ten years, so you can't preserve your strength, and being destroyed by a group of holy presences in the temple, then it proves that you are a complete waste." ”
"Isaac!!"
Ron couldn't control his anger and roared like an angry beast, but quickly reined in his anger, stared at the white stone on the table, and said, "...... Please help me. ”
"In exchange, I'll provide you with the right message."
"Haven't you been chasing the path of breakthrough, wanting to obtain even a trace of the mystery of the Legend of the Mandate of Heaven?"
"What do you want to say?" A dull voice came from the Communication Stone.
"I mean to say that I know Curran. Koudemant's whereabouts. ”
“…… Curran. Koudment? ”
Curran. Koudemant.
The chosen of Ogmar, the god of knowledge, and also a priest of the Manifest Destiny Legend level.
The path to legend for clergy is far more difficult than that of mages and warriors, especially priests, if they think that their power comes from gods and cannot understand the nature of their own power, it is impossible to cross that barrier and become a legend.
Druids and Ranger knew that their magical powers came from nature.
However, with the exception of the natural factions, the clergy of other gods generally consider their power to be given by God. The gods can deprive and give them power through their joy and anger.
Actually, in essence. The source of the strength of the clergy is the power of faith. The gods only use divine power and magic nets to make the power of faith concrete.
However, apart from the players who are not afraid of heaven and earth, those priests who have stepped into the hero level and are qualified to pursue the path of the legendary path of the Mandate of Heaven, which one is not extremely devout and can dedicate their lives to the faith? Doubt is the first step, but most of the clergy are stuck here. Doubting one's own power is no different from blasphemy to the aboriginal clergy.
Curran. Kodment is a man who has transcended the realm of heroes. A priest who has entered the realm of the Legend of Destiny. However, during the turbulent times, the legendary man mysteriously disappeared from his home, and since then the Church of Ogmar has lost its Great Elder and has been divided.
Some speculate that the legendary priest was elevated to a quasi-god and went to the realm of Ogmar. There is also speculation that the priest may have been imprisoned by some evil god or demon.
In short, Curran. The legendary priest of Cordment is missing, and now a high priest of Bane actually says that he knows the whereabouts of the legendary priest, which is tantamount to a thunderclap that has silenced the communication stone network for a long time.
“…… Ron. Are you telling the truth? After a while, Isaac, the purple-robed priest on Susar's side, asked.
"I swear to Bane."
And. Those of you who heard the voice through the communication stone can also witness it! ”
Ron muttered.
"Good!"
"I'm here to help you!"
"The two of us combined, plus the arcane crystals in your hands, will only take a few hours to completely break the seal." Isaac said without hesitation.
He didn't care about Curran. Koudemant's life and death. When it comes to tracking down a Legend, Isaac still thinks it's better if the other person is dead. Because as long as he got the legendary priest's daily notes, spiritual codex, and other items, Isaac was very satisfied. With the help of words, or even just a few words, it may be the key to his promotion to a legend.
The priest of the other port of the Transmission Stone watched in silence as the two of them completed a transaction.
"Bang"
Ron waved his hand to turn off the teleportation stone, and the dwarven runes on it disappeared in an instant.
"Priest Ron......"
At this time, there was a sudden sound of footsteps coming from the secret passage of the throne, and the blood clan magician staggered to the ground, broke into the laboratory with a frightened face, and said weakly against the wall: "The outer hall can't hold ......"
"Arabe sent Alva...... There's also a bear man, by the way, the daughter of the Grand Duke Raul, Meloti. Raul is also in there! “
"Colin Cosai, they definitely can't stop that group."
A large area of the skin on the blood woman's body has been corroded by the holy water, and half of the originally beautiful and moving face has revealed Bai Sensen's skeleton.
Ron frowned and covered his nose, the Blood Clan woman had a strong smell that even a determined priest couldn't stand it. Ron took a breath and said in a deep voice, "Mahi, you must block them, give me a few hours, and at midnight we will be able to cross most of Cormier to Susar through the portal." ”
The Blood Clan woman shook her head, bit her lip and said, "Impossible......"
Her eyes were filled with fear.
She had just almost died, and if the Priest of the Holy Coming had spilled the entire bottle of Purified Holy Water, she would have been wiped out on the spot.
"You ...... like this" Ron was expressionless at his men's miserable condition, holding the gold emblem and throwing a [Healing Fatal Wound] (Four Rings) at the magician.
The blood woman suddenly regained her previous beauty. She bowed her head in thanks, but there was a strange look in her eyes.
"Go, guard the apse and the altar, I've laid a lot of traps in the apse, and the crowd won't be able to break in so easily." Ron sneered and dismissed the magician.
"Yes."
The magician bowed his head and exited the chamber.
……
The Charles did run into trouble at the junction of the front and back halls.
"You are under the influence of the [Emblem of Pain] (the five rings)."
“…… Voluntary Exemption Test...... Physical Constitution Exemption Test......"
"Pass, you're completely immune to the negative effects of the Dark Rune."
Such a row of textual information is crowded into view.
Badge of Pain?
Charles stared in surprise at a boulder column by the threshold, glowing from a string of runes filled with darkness.
This is a necromantic spell that can be added to their list of spells by mages, warlocks, and clerics of the same level.
Now Twilightblade and two hundred purple dragon guards are crammed into a small space, and almost all of them are affected by the emblem. No one among the players is spared except for the clergy and the warrior monks, including fingertip quicksand and haunting dreams.
On the contrary, the Purple Dragon Guards, who had just experienced a bloody battle, were at their peak in morale and will, and few soldiers were affected by this spell.
Charles did not disarm the magic en masse, and he himself relied on the Willpower check bonus provided by the title of [Desecrater] and [Human Perseverance] to exempt himself from this five-ring spell.
He couldn't help anyone else.
"Blood Eagle, Bussman, you guys get the team out first." Charles immediately decided, "The front hall has been thoroughly cleaned by us, and there will be no large-scale battles in the back hall. ”
"Let the Purple Dragon Knight and a few exemplary people follow me through this last task."
Blood Eagle and Bussman didn't refuse either. Because in the flanking battle, the casualties of the legion were not optimistic, and more than half of the centaurs died and returned to the temple.
If you look at it according to the income ratio, if you encounter a battle between the model and the hero level in the future, they will just give away their heads if they intervene. In that group of devout believers, the Legion's gains have far exceeded expectations, and no matter how greedy they are, they may be ruined.
The two withdrew with the team.
Quicksand and haunting dreams were also taken away, and now only Yuffie was by Charles' side. She is a warrior monk with a high perception attribute and wears one or two accessories that increase the will check, so she can successfully exempt the effect of [Pain Emblem].
"Huh?"
Alva led the way, and before everyone had taken a few steps, the general of the guards raised his hand to tell everyone to stop, and then he walked alone to a certain boulder pillar, and slashed out with a sword!
"Boom"
A tremor rang out from across the temple.
The pillars that could only be hugged by a few people were actually cut off by Alva's sword, and one of the broken pillars may have been cut by similar sword qi energy, falling down on the block and scattering.
Charles noticed that the light of the rune emblem in the rubble was rapidly fading. The items that relied on were destroyed, and the traps that had been set up in advance were naturally destroyed.
"Keep walking!"
Alva put away his silver sword and walked into the apse without saying a word.
"Keep up......" Charles and Yuffie glanced at each other, and followed closely behind the Purple Dragon Guard.
The apse is not very spacious, and a black altar takes up almost the entire space.
The large blue gems set on the altar are emitting a faint glow, illuminating the space.
The four walls are carved with huge faces of both men and women with different expressions. The only thing they have in common is that these faces all come across as extremely evil.
"No one."
Alva's voice echoed through the apse.
"There's a secret passage there!" In the darkness, Udic saw the deep secret passage of the throne.
"There may be a heroic Dark Priest inside."
Meloti whispered, "I've prepared two 'dimensional anchor' scrolls to stop that priest from moving to another dimension, but that priest may have other escape spells, so we need to be careful." ”
"You don't have to go in."
"We brought him out."
Charles groaned a little and said coldly: "This is the temple run by that priest, it can be said that it is his heart's work, I don't believe that he will not show up......"
As he spoke, Charles gave Udic a look.
The bear man was stunned, and immediately understood what Charles meant, with a hint of hideousness in the corner of his mouth, he transformed the pure gold spear in his hand into the shape of a battle axe, and then stepped onto the obsidian altar, and smashed it to the ground with an axe!
"Boom, boom, boom, boom......"
The bearman with the violence mode turned on makes the corners of the eyebrows jump.
The obsidian altar looked sturdy, but it couldn't withstand the ravages of the legendary battle axe, and it didn't take long for the clatters and corners to break.
"Who is desecrating the temple?"
"This is a provocation to the Great Dark King!!"
There was an angry roar from the secret passage of the throne, and a dark priest in purple and black robes strode out, standing on the steps, looking down at everyone coldly. (To be continued......)
