Chapter 423: The Divine Power is Mighty, Gathering 50,000 Believers, and Preparing to Set Off to Explore the Divine Ruins (8600 words)

Reed took a deep breath as he watched Ariel and the red-eyed lady in the black cloak leave.

Thinking of the information that the two confided to him just now, he couldn't help but have a somewhat solemn expression.

The threat of this divine relic extends far beyond the city of Rhysr...... The undead evil god had already broken through part of the seal.

After frowning and pondering for a moment, Li De quietly took out the palm-sized Castro from his arms.

"Castro, return to Dawnbreaker City at once, and ask Asrega to come to Green City immediately."

"Yes, master." Castro's voice became a little cute after he became smaller, and after answering, he flipped out of the window with wings in small armor and flew out of the hall.

This time, he needs outside help.

But judging from the information revealed by Ariel, only the god Asrega can accompany him, and the other transcendents are still slightly worse.

"The shattered plane that could cause a space storm at any time, the evil gods who have broken some of the seals, and the ancient races that remain in the plane...... It's not a good place. ”

Li De's dark eyes were as deep as a vast galaxy.

"But now think about how to perform miracles tomorrow when you sit down in church...... If you do it well tomorrow, you can harvest a large number of believers. ”

It was a dark night, but many people stayed up all night.

The establishment of the Church of Daybreak was not a happy event for the other denominations in Greentown, as they had another strong competitor.

Bishops of many denominations have been praying to their gods for oracles, but no one has been able to answer them......

The presence of other sects, the Dawnbreaker Sect, is a bad thing, but for the common people, it is an exciting thing.

Because this means that His Majesty Irotsu has the closest connection with Green City, and this connection means that when danger comes in the future, the other party will stand with Green City.

I have to say that this is definitely the best news they have heard in recent months.

November 18th, cloudy and windless.

Today's Green City is particularly lively, especially in the city center, and it is even more crowded, as if the whole city is coming.

For today is a day destined to be celebrated by the troubadours, and when the Church of Dawn is completed, His Majesty the great Elo will perform miracles today to reward his humble and faithful believers.

Although many people had seen His Majesty Iro's crown at the gate of the city three days ago, most of them did not have a specific concept of the power of the gods, and more listened to the legend of His Majesty's Majesty.

The opportunity to see the legendary miracle with your own eyes at this time is a rare opportunity for most people, and it is definitely worth bragging about for a lifetime.

"Uncle Dorma, do you also believe in Iro's crown? No, I remember the day before yesterday you were still a believer in the God of Sowing......"

"Shut up, what do you know, His Majesty Ilo is the guardian of the future Green City, why can't I believe it?"

"Uncle Thomas, I think you are the god who covets the crown of Iro...... Die for the most devout believers, and my faith in the crown is definitely the most devout of all, and the grace will surely bathe in me. ”

"The Great Crown will look up to you? Hmph, a pig killer like me, who slaughters pigs, is His Majesty's favorite believer!! ”

“......”

The residents who came to the church early were talking to each other, because the Daybreak Sect had not yet begun its official mission, so most of the people who came to the church for the sit-down ceremony were greedy for divine grace.

Many of these residents believe in other sects, or simply unbelievers, simply to get away with it, fantasizing that they can be favored by Li De and receive a reward from the gods.

Among them, the player is the most.

This group of standard unbelievers has always scoffed at the gods, and it is a joke that they want them to believe in glorious gods.

Everyone is here to play the game, what is there to believe in an NPC??

While the game can change the physical fitness of reality, the player's psychological advantage leads them to think that they are the masters of glory.

What gods are not gods, sooner or later they will be overthrown by them.

Faith arises from mystery and the unknown, and only gods like players who can believe in glory in their hearts have ghosts.

Of course, this is just the attitude of Chinese players, and when the time comes to open for the third time, it is still unknown whether the influx of foreign players will change the status quo.

Of course, at this time, what attracts players more than gaining divine grace is ......

"See that stele? The teachings of the Cult of Daybreak are carved on it......"

"Damn, it's true!! Hahahaha...... Self-improvement, tenacious struggle, unity, bravery, love for family and patriotism, two cross mantras.

Will the spells of this sect be named after these teachings in the future? Look at my little fireball: self-improvement technique...... Hahahaha, no, I'm going to die laughing here sooner or later. ”

"Don't say it, it's really possible...... If that's the case, then you must try your best to join in the future, what kind of ice technique are others, fireball technique, as soon as you open your mouth, you are tenacious, brave and fearless...... It's just a bunker or not. ”

These sand sculpture players are purely here to join in the fun, and by the way, to see if they can win the lottery and get the reward from Iro's crown.

Of course, there was another purpose for this, which was also very obvious - they were extremely expecting that the powerful Elo Crown would speak the teachings of the Daybreaker Sect in front of everyone.

A powerful deity, in the context of feudal theocracy society, speaks of patriotism and family, self-improvement, and has a kind of contrast when you think about it.

For this reason, I don't know how many players are running to tell each other, so that they must be online on time today.

On top of that, players are looking forward to how these aborigines will react to hearing this positive teaching.

Will it be as confused as they are?

Of course, these guys who are waiting to see the show may not think until they die, and the teachings of the Daybreak Sect are the ones who have attracted their attention and believe that they are the most powerful existence among the known NPCs of Glory, His Majesty Iro.

Time passed slowly, and in the expectation of countless people, the hands came to 10 o'clock in the morning.

When the bell forged by the dwarves in the bell tower on the side of the street rang a crisp bell, a huge ball of light suddenly rose from the originally dim sky.

The cluster of holy light appeared out of thin air, shining like the sun over the entire city of Green.

It's dawn.

Although the light was bright, it was not dazzling, but it seemed to have the warmth of a mother's embrace.

In the land shrouded in holy light, those who were physically and mentally exhausted felt that they had received an infusion of strength, and they instantly felt much more refreshed.

Sensing all this, people's eyes became eager.

"Your Majesty Iro!!"

With a low shout, everyone began to cheer wildly as if they had been set on fire.

The scene was like a drop of cold water dripping from boiling oil, crazy and hot.

The huge ball of light could not see the specific situation inside, but it could faintly see a figure standing faintly.

Li De is like the creator god on a high seat in the nine heavens, looking down on the earth indifferently and calmly.

While everyone was cheering, the power of faith in his body began to spin wildly, and the momentum on his body suddenly skyrocketed at this moment.

Although he stood in mid-air, the momentum on his body was like a lake hanging upside down in the sky, majestic, majestic, and atmospheric.

At this moment, it seemed that the stars were circulating under his feet, the Milky Way was floating and sinking above him, and the majestic mountains could only become his background.

In this day, he is the only one walking alone at the moment.

At the center of all things, heaven and earth creeping.

The majesty of the main god obtained by establishing the god system radiated freely.

Towering mountains, standing tall.

The originally noisy crowd below seemed to have pressed the pause button at this moment.

Silence.

The power of God is like a prison, and the vastness is endless.

Seeing this, Li De's face became more and more indifferent, and his voice pierced through the sky and resounded in everyone's ears.

"I, the god of dawn, control the blood priesthood.

Today, in the name of the God of Daybreak, I hereby declare that the Daybreak Sect will officially be inherited in Grimm City from now on.

Those who believe in me can be blessed by me when the old days come and the world is shattered.

Recite my name, Ilo Kachar, and you may see light in darkness and gain eternal life in the midst of catastrophe. ”

A mysterious language that struck the heart surged out, and at this moment, the entire inhabitants of Green City looked up at the sky.

They heard, heard the oracle of the god of dawn under the crown of Ilo Kachar.

The cold but mighty voice seemed to ring in their souls.

Everyone below directly touched the coercion that belonged to the main god at this moment, and in a trance, they even saw the majestic figure above the nine heavens.

At the same time, there were also the eyes that emerged from the holy light, and the black eyes seemed to have stars collapsing and the plane collapsing.

Its power and terror are unheard of and unprecedented.

At this moment, he is the truth, the one, the eternal......

The people who originally had disrespect in their hearts and even had other thoughts were swallowed up by fear at this moment, and all their conjectures were instantly cleared.

Many people even fell to their knees with their legs limp under that panic, and began to repent and pray for their blasphemous thoughts.

Is this the deity?

The originally excited players seemed to have been splashed with cold water in winter, and the whole person was frightened.

Li De's coercion that seeped into his soul was like an ancient beast that tore through the heavens and the earth in ancient times, staring at them with its brutal eyes.

The little Jiujiu in his heart collapsed directly like a bubble in that majesty.

The gods are the ultimate beings of glory.

Everyone realized the true meaning of this sentence at this moment.

While the crowd below was trembling, Li De was in a happy mood at the moment.

Because the number of believers on his attribute panel is growing like crazy.

More than 300,000 residents came to watch the ceremony of the Dawnbreak Church, and just now his words resounded through the sky and enveloped the entire Green City.

So just by his move, the number of pan-believers on the attribute panel soared to a staggering 30,000......

Cool crooked.

Believers can be called pan-believers when they have initial beliefs in a sect, but this kind of belief is very shallow, and pan-believers can believe in several sects at the same time, which belongs to the wall grass level.

Only when pan-believers are elevated to full believers will they believe in a denomination and can they be considered true believers.

Greentown is so big that there are millions of people who don't believe in denominations, and there are even more pan-believers.

The sect of the Lord of Glory is essentially the ruler, and the believers are required to sacrifice their faith as the ruled in exchange for the ruler's protection.

The sect actually asks more than it gives to the believers at the bottom, and even many clergy will privately resemble the believers, asking them to give money to get more protection, and the holy water that can heal injuries in the church is also sold at a clear price.

Churches need money to run, and where does that money come from? Nature is scavenged from the hands of believers.

Believers offer faith and wealth in exchange for a certain amount of protection, which is the lowest logic between the various sects and believers in the Glory Lord's plane.

Of course, on the surface, it is still very open-minded, and if you don't understand the operation mechanism of the sect, you can really be fooled by them.

In this case, with the exception of some believers who have benefited more, the majority of the people are not so deeply faithful.

This is also the reason why when the Daybreak Sect preaches in the City of Daybreak, it is easy for believers of other sects to convert except for those old people.

Because in essence, believers and denominations are transactional relationships, but this transaction has been glorified countless times.

"Those who are willing to believe in me, bow down and pray at this time.

The most devout believers will receive our most precious reward. ”

Li De hung high in the air with hundreds of blades and did not descend, and a large part of the source of faith stems from mystery and unknown.

As a deity, it is necessary to keep enough distance from the believers and establish a sense of mystery.

The more unknown things are, the more frightened people will be, and the more they will imagine them as all kinds of incredible and majestic beings, when in fact, believers do not believe in the real God, but their imaginary innermost desires or fears.

The power of the Lord God radiated again.

Brilliant as a prison, breathtaking.

That great pressure once again permeated the heart, ordinary people who were not strong-willed could not bear such majesty, and many residents fell to their knees directly with weak legs, surrendering to the divine might.

Instead of being annoyed, the inhabitants who were forced to kneel folded their hands and began to whisper prayers in fear, as if fearing that the gods who hung above the nine heavens like the sun would punish them.

And at this moment, in the distance, in the windows and attics of some high-rise buildings, there are a large number of figures secretly looking at the Dawn Church and Li De.

Most of these people were clergy from other sects or some powerful profession, but their eyes were not so kind.

"The god of hunting is above, and I feel the divine power of this Iro's crown...... I didn't expect that there was really a god in Green City. ”

"My God, these heretical spirits have descended into the world, please give your most loyal followers guidance!"

"Hmph, what about Iro's crown?! The great god of war is not something that such a weak god can contend with, and the temple of war continues to preach, and no one can hinder us from spreading the glory of God! ”

Although most of the residents were very happy with Li De's arrival, for the sect, Li De's appearance was a huge threat to their mission, so these god believers were very jealous of it.

However, in the final analysis, this world is the power that speaks, and the current Li De has strength that these people can not compete with.

It was the dragon that had to be coiled in front of him.

Regardless of the outsiders with different thoughts, the crowd around the Dawn Church at this moment fell into a strange atmosphere, especially those who had become Li De's pan-believers, the original panicked Shenwei became inexplicably kind and cordial in their feelings at this moment, which was a change in mentality from outsiders to their own people.

Li De could clearly feel that the power of faith from the crowd below began to slowly accumulate and increase, and many pan-believers began to transform into believers.

The coercion exuded from him became more and more intense, and his status in the hearts of believers became more and more high.

For three minutes, the sky was silent.

At this moment, there was no one standing on the ground, and even the players who were unwilling to bow down crouched down, not daring to make a bird.

"I have sensed the faith in your hearts, and now I will empower the most devout believers among you......"

The words fell, and the believers below raised their heads in unison, their eyes full of longing.

What a blessing it is to be blessed by the gods.

The holy light on Li De's body was like a magic lamp that had been lit at this moment, and it began to emit a more brilliant light.

In the sky over Green City, it seemed that a sun had appeared again at this moment.

Under the blessing of this holy power, three figures slowly floated out of the crowd.

Seeing this, the crowd immediately let out a burst of exclamations.

"That's Sebino!! The goddess is above, and he was actually chosen by Iro's crown!! ”

"Hey, Sean was chosen too?! It's unbelievable, Sean is a waste! Without even the slightest talent to become a professional, such a person can be chosen? Could it be that His Majesty Iro's crown really only looks at faith? ”

"Who's that beggar girl?"

"The girl's name seems to be ...... Nicole? She had only wandered to Greentown two days ago, and I had given her a loaf of bread to eat! Hahaha, it's unbelievable, this girl has been taken a fancy by His Majesty Iro, she will definitely remember me, praise the goddess, praise Elo Crown! ”

Li De's eyes burned as he looked at the three people who had already floated into the air, two of them were natives of Green City, he didn't know them, but the degree of faith of these two people was the highest in the audience, and they reached the level of honest disciples.

As for the last one...... Looking at Nicole's dazed look with a little excitement, the corners of Li De's mouth twitched, this little girl's acting skills were simply amazing.

The Twilight Sect in the underworld is already on the right track, and as long as there is enough strength to suppress it, nothing can go wrong, but the mission in Green City is still a big problem, so Li De transferred Nicole.

When it comes to the ability to manage a sect, Nicole is definitely second to none in Daybreak, and even City Hall Speaker Harrison may not be better than this girl he has specially cultivated for several years.

It stands to reason that his holy priest Nilo should have been sent in, but Nilo is now in charge of cultivating magical plants with the power of faith, which is much more useful, and Nilo's management skills are much worse than her sister's.

"Sons of faith, your devout faith has won my admiration, and now I will reward you with great strength."

After speaking, under the envious and jealous gaze of everyone below, with a wave of his hand, three light clusters flashing with holy power flew straight out of his body, and then poured into the bodies of the three people.

However, outsiders could not perceive that the light cluster flying towards Nicole contained ten times more power than the other two.

After the light that contained the power of faith merged into their bodies, they began to frantically transform everything about them.

Nicole, dressed in a beggar's outfit, snorted, her small brows furrowed, and the pain of being transformed by the power of faith was definitely a challenge for the girl.

But fortunately, he gritted his teeth and persevered.

Li De watched as the power of more than 100,000 beliefs on his attribute panel became empty again, and there was not a dime left, so he could only smile helplessly.

I can't bear the help of the wolf, this time, it will be much easier to preach in the future, and sooner or later I will have to earn it back a hundredfold and a thousandfold.

Under everyone's gaze, the momentum of the three figures suspended in the air began to skyrocket rapidly.

Level 1, Level 2, Level 3......

Level 7, Level 8......

"Sebino has reached level 9? The goddess is on top, he was only level 3 before, huh? ”

"Look at Sean, he, he's broken through level 10!?

This, how is this possible? Sean was attacked by a demonic beast when he was young, and the muscles of his body had already died and atrophied, and now he actually exuded a level 10 aura!!

Creator God, is this the bathing of divine grace? ”

"The female beggar's breath is still rising...... Level 13, level 14, level 15, level 15?? This, is this dazzling?!!! ”

"Miss Nicole has broken through level 15? I, I must be dreaming...... When she took the bread from me yesterday, she didn't have any professional breath......"

When the residents below saw the movement in the air, they all went crazy.

Miracles, that's miracles.

In front of everyone, one of the wasted people turned out to be a high-level professional, and the girl in tattered clothes even broke through the exaggerated level 15.

This intuitive sense of impact makes those residents who are still ordinary people almost burst out, and their emotions are amplified to the extreme.

Level 15!! That's the existence that they don't dare to breathe when they meet!

Looking at Green City, it is also the top combat power, and there is only one extraordinary person under the crown of Locke on the face of the huge city.

Under the strong impact of the rapid increase in the level of several people, the number of believers on the Li De attribute panel was rising.

Originally, the number of believers in the Dawnbreak Sect was about 160,000, including some alien races, such as halflings and orcs, and the total number of believers had exceeded 210,000 at this moment, and the new 50,000 people were all residents of Green City.

This rate of increase can be described as outrageous.

Li De's indifferent face couldn't help but soften a little at the moment.

Sure enough, human beings are the real main battlefield of the gods, and this speed of harvesting believers is too cool.

After calming down a little, he looked at the three people in the air, scanned them one by one, and finally stopped on Nicole.

"I sense the devotion in your heart, and tell me your name, child."

Hearing this, Nicole said with a little surprise and panic on her face, and her tone trembled.

"Crown, Crown, my name is Nicole ......"

"Nicole?" Li De secretly praised his good acting skills, "From today onwards, I will appoint you as the white bishop of the Daybreaking Sect.

In my absence, you will rule the Cult of Daybreak. ”

Hiss~

When the crowd below heard this, they immediately gasped one by one, managing the Dawn Breaking Sect? Just such a beggar??

Is this the result of being favored by the gods?

That's amazing!

Changed from a beggar to a bishop of a sect, and his level was raised to level 15.

The odds of life are so wonderful.

Not only were the aborigines shocked, but the players' eyes were red with envy when they saw this kind of scene.

"I fucking ate a lemon, good guy, and got to level 15 in just a few minutes?"

"Damn, if I knew that I was also religious, it's all because of our elementary school ideological and moral teachers!! Why, why suffer this pain......"

"This Yiluo is definitely deliberate, I am so handsome that I pretend not to see it under his nose, I must be jealous that I am more handsome than him!!"

"It's not fair!! Defy!! I don't accept it with a capital letter, the guy who was chosen just now is next to me, it must be a mistake under the Iromian Dynasty, bastard, my chance to turn the tables against the sky was robbed by that bastard!! ”

But no matter how red the players are, they can only secretly complain, and they don't even have the courage to look at Li De, this boss is too powerful, and they don't even dare to breathe under that majesty.

After Li De's miracle, his popularity at this moment skyrocketed in everyone's hearts to an unimaginable degree, almost climbing to the extreme.

The bishops of the sect who were observing in the shadows also looked at each other at this moment, their eyes full of horror and panic that could not be concealed.

Unexpectedly, they really didn't expect that the miracles displayed by this Iro's crown would be so terrifying and terrifying.

Elevate the power of believers!! There are no bells and whistles, and that alone is enough to make everyone flock to it.

Strength is number one in the main plane of glory at all times.

At this moment, there is such an exaggerated escalation under their noses, and the psychological impact on these bishops is simply indescribable.

Although he is reluctant to have such a strong enemy, no one has to admit that the sky in Green City is about to change.

They will have a strong competitor in the future, and an opponent with a god in charge.

Many bishops glanced at the people around them, and they all saw bitterness in each other's eyes.

O my God, this heretical deity has almost shaken me, so answer our call and grant me an oracle......

"My followers, everything about you is under my watch, Nicole will run the Daybreak Sect for me, you must obey her orders."

"Whoever believes in me, recites my name, Ilo Kachar, can see light in darkness and gain eternal life in catastrophe......"

"Eternal ......"

"Eternal ......"

After Li De left the last sentence, the holy light on his body was magnificent, and then the figure disappeared into the air in vain.

All that was left was the phrase of eternal life that kept echoing.

The residents below waited until Li De disappeared, but they didn't come back to their senses for a long time......

The impact on them today is too huge, and many people are still confused.

——

——

In the Elvis Tavern in the distance, Ariel, a level 17 elf archery master, stood by the window on the fifth floor with several elegant and arrogant figures, looking at the disappearing figure in the sky with burning eyes.

The expression is somewhat complicated.

"Ariel, can you really trust this Elo?"

Behind him, a tall elf took two steps forward, and the mage robe embroidered with the delicate tree of life pattern on his body shone brightly, and the momentum on his body had reached the extraordinary.

"We don't really have a choice, do we?" There was some bitterness in Ariel's eyes, and she turned her head to look at the transcendent elf spellcaster.

"This is a last-ditch effort, and most of the people don't support us going to the shattered plane......

But only we know that the Bow of the Sun is only one last step away from being cast.

Without the protection of the Bow of the Sun, what can the elves do to resist this catastrophe that makes the elven gods tremble? ”

"Elder Gunilla, the elders around the Elven King are no longer able to contact the Elven Gods at this moment, and we have lost our last dependence...... It's no longer the ancient race that has the blessings of the entire divine system.

The elves are too fragile to put all our hopes in the gods to respond to our call again before the old days come......"

If Li De heard the news here, he would be full of surprise, the elves had lost contact with their gods, this news was definitely a bombshell.

Believers who follow the gods and lose touch with them often represent the fall of the gods......

However, the elves have as many as 12 gods, and it is unlikely that they will fall all at once, but it can be seen that something must have happened to cut off the connection between these powerful beings and the elves of the main plane.

The transcendent elf in the delicate mage's robes had a changed face, and there was a bit of warning in his eyes.

"Ariel, don't talk nonsense! ...... of the gods It's going to be fine......"

If there is a problem with the elves and gods, then it is a question whether the elves can still exist.

Ariel also came back to her senses when she heard the reprimand, and hurriedly said.

"Yes, the gods can't have a problem, but there's a good chance they're being stopped by something.

There is no guarantee that we will be able to reconnect with the gods in the next period of time, so the Bow of the Sun is the best guarantee. ”

"Ariel, you are the smartest of the Elvis elves, and this time we left the ancient forest without the elven king, and we also trusted you.

This time we can only succeed, and we cannot afford the consequences of failure. ”

The Transcendent Elf Caster's tone was a bit unspeakably solemn.

Behind her, the few elves who didn't speak showed the same gaze in their eyes.

Elves are not the elves they used to be......

Only the red-eyed lady in the black cloak in the room had calm eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.

——

——

——

Not surprisingly, Li De's miracles spread more and more in Green City, and there was no sign of stopping.

After all, raising a waster to level 10 and a female beggar to level 15 is a miracle that the inhabitants of Greentown have only heard of in the mouths of troubadours.

But this time, they witnessed it happening, which caused the residents of Greene City to fall into an atmosphere of restlessness.

Who doesn't want to boost their power?

At level 15, a beggar can be upgraded to level 15 if he is appreciated by Iro's crown...... If even beggars can, why can't they win the favor of Iro's crown??

And those who were originally non-religious professionals are also shaking at the moment, they have worked hard for more than ten years, and they are not even as good as a single bow, which has an extremely huge impact on them.

Even some of the followers of the other sects have begun to falter, and as they pass by the Church of Daybreak, they keep looking back, their eyes full of yearning......

Gain divine grace and increase level 15, and this will continue to haunt the minds of the residents of Greentown like a spell.

As for the only church of Daybreak that was built, the threshold was about to be broken in a moment.

Nicole, who was hand-picked, officially took over the missionary work of the Daybreak Sect during this time and began to become Li De's right-hand man.

As for the two level 10 believers, Nicole didn't let them be idle, she let them go out for a walk with momentum when they had nothing to do, and made these two believers into walking golden signs, attracting others all the time.

After leaving the top of the Daybreak Church, Li De went directly back to the Daybreak Manor, and the Daybreak Sect was managed by Nicole's little girl.

With his support, there is one in the entire Green City, and absolutely no one dares to mess with Nicole, who is the white-clothed archbishop he appointed.

On the day of the miracle, when Li Deluo was about to call the elves to come and discuss the exploration of the relics of the gods, the prompt sound of the system made him slightly stunned.

"Ding~ You have successfully performed a miracle, and you have gained the respect and yearning of more than 500,000 people in 6 solar hours, and the legend of the sub-identity - Iro's crown is +10, and the success rate of the Dawnbreaker Sect in Grimm City has increased by 30%, and the attraction of believers has increased by 30%."

Is this okay??

This trait came as if it had been negotiated, and it just happened to be in line with the mission of the Daybreak Sect.

"Yes, to my taste."

Although this reward was good, he didn't pay much attention to it, and he still needed to deal with more important things.

After thinking for a while, he asked the guards outside the door to call the level 17 elf Ariel.

Time is running out now, and the old days could come at any time.

He had already decided to explore the god ruins with the elves, so he didn't want to delay, and the sooner he set out, the better.

But before he leaves, he has to talk to the elves first, and by the way, meet Ariel's partner and the girl in the cloak of blood.
