Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Soul Priest

Mette's pursuit was crisp and clean, without any drag. Judging by the way she readily identifies the environment to find traces, she has fought in the wilderness.

"These rats will run away." Mette grinned, "Want to use the terrain of Oritari to get around me?" It's a beautiful idea! Old - when I was here to mess around, I didn't have these bastards! ”

Although Mette changed her words in time, those present could still understand what she didn't say what the claim wasβ€”and no one would be stupid enough to mention it to her face again.

"There should be a steep slope ahead." Rossiel looked forward for a moment, "There are many sharp stones of various sizes in the path, and branches of trees blocking it. If we are not familiar with the terrain here, I am afraid that we need to be cautious. ”

Mette gave Rosier an appreciative look.

"That's right, you're looking at the rocks now, and when you get there, you might find more things blocked by them." At some point, Mette's sword was put away by her, and she moved her wrists and ankles, then looked back at the others, "Believe me or not?" Believe me, I'll put away the things on you that will get in the way of your actions for the time being, and follow me all the way! ”

Mette's words just now had revealed that she had enough information about Oritari, and the members of Molfi were naturally small and easy to carry equipment that would not affect their movements. Pat obediently tucked his broadsword into the space bag, looking ready.

"Bola, do you want to tie up your clothes?" Diess leaned over to Bora's side and looked at the hem of his overly long clothes, "It's going to be a problem if you get caught in a rock, tree or something." ”

Bora didn't say much, he just glanced at them and sat down indifferently on top of his kingfisher, which had returned to its original size.

Dis, who was despised for his intelligence, touched his nose and silently followed behind Mette.

Bola riding the kingfisher became quite conspicuous, and he had no intention of following Mette and the others. He patted the kingfisher on the head and flew straight into the air.

Bora wasn't good at physical activity, and he knew that he would be holding back even if he followed them, so he might as well take his summoned beast to attract Rossos's attention and make his enemies think they were in the other direction and let their guard down.

The sound of the kingfisher's chirping hovered over the heads of the crowd, and it was not long before it was gone.

"Alright, let's go." "Don't worry about Bola, Filly's children are good at fighting alone, and they won't be afraid to carry one of the twins alone." If Bora is in danger, he will come directly to us for help. ”

The people in the team who should have feared most about Bora's safety said so, and the others had nothing to say. The four members of the Gula family just glanced at the direction where Bora had left, and then put their minds back to where they should be now.

When a friend's is not blindly worried, it is easy to help him when he fights alongside Bora, which does not mean that they do not trust Bora's ability to fight alone.

In the air, Bora took in the mountains as he stared blankly at the few black dots that were supposed to be his teammates, then looked away at the other moving figures.

The Tokroy Snowfield and the Twyann Basin are less visited for environmental reasons, but the Oretari Mountains and Sudiapin are completely different. The inhabitants of the vicinity of the Oretari Mountains often go up to the mountains to hunt and log to sustain themselves, which is not something that Morfi or Fili can control.

Although Molfi is known as the leader of the family, the humans in the Goddess Continent are not only mercenaries but families, and most of them are still ordinary people who live in peace.

Because of the existence of these people, they can't casually fight Roseos in Oritari, but Roseos can not care about this, and the first few painless little struggles are also generated by Mette's desire to avoid involving ordinary people as much as possible. It's rare that they've been able to fight a battle in an area far from where ordinary people would set foot in, and it's no wonder that Mette wants to tackle this in one fell swoop.

Bora wasn't sure he could tell if the people in the mountains belonged to Roseos or normal humans at this height, but that wouldn't disrupt his plans. Ordinary people who know nothing will have endless curiosity, and as soon as he appears in front of them, they will become curious about his summoned beasts, and they will be dragged away from the battlefield by him.

And if it's someone from Roseos? That's just right, he can wipe out every Roseos man he meets.

The kingfisher of Bora seemed to understand his intentions and let out a cheerful chirp. It spun in a circle in the air, carrying Bora into a rapid swoop to the ground, causing an exclamation on the ground.

The red-haired boy patted his companion, and it flapped its wings slowly, sending a gust of air through the air. After it had attracted enough attention, Bora let it fly over another hill.

Mette, who was exploring the mountains, could naturally hear the voices from Bora's side, and she immediately understood Bora's intentions, and expressed her approval of Bora's actions in her heart.

"Is Bora trying to distract the others?" Rosier, who is good at commanding operations, also understands the efforts made by her companions, "I am really grateful, and when His Excellency Bora returns, I must express my gratitude properly." ”

"This is what you should do as a combat partner, right? If I had thanked him for this, I'm afraid Pola would have hid awkwardly. Mette snickered, "I'll talk about that later, it's all about it, and it's supposed to be Roseos's place not far ahead." ”

Rossile immediately threw Mette's words to the back of her mind, and she checked her weapon again to make sure it was safe before following Mette on.

They descended halfway up the hill and stopped at a large rock. Mette tapped lightly on the stone, and under Rosiel's surprised gaze, the stone moved away on its own.

"It's an interesting secret passage." "Kate and I first met around here, and we were friends of each other, so he was asked by my father to come out to me. We had a fight here - and we pushed the stone away, rolled into the secret passage very miserably, and the duel was over! ”

Although she was eager to know why finding someone would turn into a duel, Roshiel decided to keep her mouth shut obediently, and it was enough to follow Mette's command about the battle.

It's a secret passage, but rather some creature with sharp claws digging a way through the stone. Even the petite of Rocsiles, could only bend forward, let alone the others.

There were some traces of man-made in the passage that could prove that Roses had indeed used this secret passage, but it was difficult to walk here, and they were a little skeptical that Roses would have used it often.

"Lord Met, where does the end of the passage lead?" Rosier, who was following closely behind Mette, asked, "I guess it's somewhere in the middle of this mountain range." ”

"Well, if I'm not mistaken, and it hasn't changed, this will be a cemetery at the end."

"Huh?!"

The news shocked everyone else, including Roselle. It is a well-known fact that cemeteries tend to choose a flat land, or a relatively flat hill. It stands to reason that a mountain range like Oritari, which has changed terrain too much, is not suitable for a cemetery.

"I don't know where the cemetery is, because the people in the neighborhood don't bother to carry their families up the mountain for burial." "I wasn't that interested in it either, so I didn't go out of my way to investigate." Anyway, this cemetery is not angry, and it was not deliberately placed here. But Kate mentioned it once, and it seems that there was once a small village living on this mountain......"

Mette's words stopped abruptly, and Rossiel cooperated to stop making a sound. For a moment, all that was left in the passage was the faint breathing of each person, and the sound of their own heartbeat in their ears.

"I felt a disgusting aura ahead." Mette said in a low voice, "Be careful. ”

With that, Mette quickly rushed out of the passage, as she took her sword in her hand, scanning everything in sight warily.

Rossiel rushed out after her, her pistol held steadily, but for a moment there was no one in her field of vision who could be an "enemy".

It's a large cemetery, as Mette said, that no one has gone to worship. The dead branches and mud almost covered the tombstones, and no one came to clean them for a long time.

But on closer inspection, it seems that something is not quite right. The tombstones some distance away from them had unnatural marks, and the dirt looked new, not like it had accumulated over time.

"Graveyard ......," Mette muttered, eyes narrowing in anger, "I should have thought of it." Since Roseos dares to forcibly recall the deceased, what is it to drive the dead? ”

"Drive the dead?" Roselle's heart pounded, "What does that mean?" They are able to...... Using the bodies of dead people? ”

"It's not that simple." Mette said with a gloomy face, "The body of the deceased is just a medium. Under normal circumstances, the deceased no longer possesses the energy of life, and the soul enters reincarnation. However, the karma of the deceased does not end there, and the thoughts of their relatives and friends about them will form spiritual energy. But it is impossible for ordinary humans to know where the souls of the dead will go, so their thoughts can only be attached to the body of the deceased. ”

"Is Roseos going to take advantage of these thoughts?" Pat frowned, "What do they want to do?" Even a magician like Rhines can't use this energy, unless it's ......"

As if he had thought of something, Pat looked around sharply and looked around at the place, his face becoming extremely ugly.

"Soul Priest." Mette gritted her teeth and said, "Rossos is capable...... Dare to cultivate a sacrificial mage in the direction of necromancy! ”
