5. Foothold Chapter 179: Entering the Underground World

In the presence of three elite church members from above, Martin revealed their intentions.

"Lord Baron, this time Lord Todd, their mission is to enter the underground world and reclaim a long-lost holy relic from our church in the hands of evil creatures, so Lord Bentry hopes to ask you to be the guide of the three adults and take them to the underground world, of course, there is no need for Lord Baron to take action in the battle, the strength of the three adults should be able to deal with it, and the safety of Lord Baron will also be responsible for us! Hearing the intention of the Church of the Goddess of Agriculture, Donald felt very surprised. Their purpose is nothing else, they actually want to go deep into the underground world to carry out a mission, and what they need is the ability of his summoner to explore the way?

Donald, who had some doubts about this, asked, "Well, then why did you choose us? There are probably a lot of known underground passages on the mainland, right? Isn't it more convenient to enter there?"

At this time, the priest Thorde explained: "Your Excellency Baron doesn't know that the entrances to several underground passages on the continent have alien handles from the underground world, and if you want to reach other places through its territory, I won't say it, Your Excellency Baron should be able to imagine it. According to the instructions of the great goddess Elaine, the area where our target is located is deep underground in the north of Celte, so we will come to Celt thousands of miles away, hoping to find a new entrance to the underground world in this area, fortunately, not long after arriving in the northern county, an underground passage was found near the territory of His Excellency the Baron, and according to our target location, it is very close! After the middle-aged pastor finished speaking, he looked directly at Donald, but Donald did not answer immediately, but was silent for a while, and after considering the gains and losses of this matter in his heart, he said: "If this is the case, I think I can agree!"

It's not that he Donald is afraid of the might of the Church of the Goddess of Agriculture, but after careful consideration, Donald thought that the exit of the underground world is very close to his territory, and there are forces below that can make the Church of the Goddess of Agriculture also pay attention to it, presumably the strength should not be low, it is a big threat to Dalaran, if this threat can be eradicated with the help of the power of the Church of the Goddess of Agriculture, then it is the best thing.

After Donald finished speaking, several people on the other side all smiled, and even the most serious male xìng plump knight's face sè softened a lot.

"Thank you so much, Lord Baron!"

Of the few, Martin was the happiest.

This matter was given to him by the bishop himself, and he could let go of the heart that had been hanging, whether it was these big people from the church headquarters or the first nobleman in the emerging North County in front of him, it was not something that his little assistant deacon could offend, and the process had to be done as carefully as possible.

So as soon as this matter is completed, there is nothing to do with him, how can Martin, who has unloaded his burden, be unhappy?

Since Donald agreed, things were not in a hurry, and he immediately ordered to go down to a banquet to entertain the guests, and even Martin mixed a meal, among which was the most delicious delicacy from Dalaran, Ice Caviar.

The purpose of the Church of the Goddess of Agriculture is not like some extreme churches, which requires penance and fasting, and the three meals can only be fed on water and dry food, so this banquet was extremely satisfying to several guests.

In particular, the Eri knight was very interested in the novel food and recipes that appeared at the banquet, and if it weren't for the fact that they weren't familiar with each other, they might have asked for the secret recipe directly.

Three days later, Donald, who had already taken care of the affairs of the territory, officially set off for the underworld with the three members of the Church of the Goddess of Agriculture.

The purpose of this time was to find a sacristy that had been lost many years ago and bring it back to the Church headquarters. Because it is deep underground, it is likely to encounter battles, and it is very inconvenient to act, so the Church of the Goddess of Agriculture did not send too many people, only Thord and the three elite clergymen who had been through a hundred battles.

It's just that what Donald thinks, that young knight Ellie doesn't look like a battle-hardened powerhouse, but like the child of a big man, traveling under the escort of his subordinates!

But since it's an internal decision of the church, he can't interfere, anyway, according to the prior agreement, he is only responsible for leading the way and using summoned creatures to explore the way, and the rest can't be so much, it's a big deal to use teleportation when in danger, and rescue them by the way, which can be regarded as a benevolent and righteous to them!

The distance from the territory to the underground entrance was nothing to the four of them, who were all silver powerhouses, and soon they came to the entrance of the passage.

"After entering here, there is another passage that is not short, and then there are two forks, one of which is a dead end, needless to say, and the remaining one leads to a medium-sized cave.

There are three forks in the cave, one of which leads to the surface, the exit is in the volcano dozens of miles away, and the other leads to another uninhabited cave, so I guess if we want to go deep into the underground world, we hope it should be on this last passage!" Seeing Donald standing in front of the entrance and smiling silently, the cold-faced and fertile rider Fonwood said, "Then what are you waiting for, let's go in quickly!"

Donald said, "Of course it's waiting for someone!"

The middle-aged priest frowned slightly and said, "Your Excellency, we don't plan to bring other people, the fewer people to carry out this task, the better, and the requirements for strength are also very high!"

The implication is that your helper who can't handle it is also a burden, so don't trouble everyone!

Donald didn't care, looking up in the direction of the territory. But half a minute later, a figure flew towards the four of them. Soon it will fall in front of several people.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, I have a trial that is going on at a critical time, and it will take some time for huā to finish!"

At first sight, it was felt that the old mage with extraordinary demeanor performed a mage salute on the three members of the Church of the Goddess of Agriculture.

"Everyone, this is my teacher, Master Messer!" The three members of the Church of the Goddess of Agriculture all hurried to salute, they could all feel Messer's powerful strength, the mage of the silver peak, in terms of real strength, was much stronger than the priest who was already a high level of silver, of course, as a senior priest, Thorde, who could temporarily use the power of the true god, would not be afraid of the other party.

Donald explained helplessly: "My teacher is still not worried about my safety, so he summoned me before leaving, and decided to join in temporarily, you won't object, right?"

In fact, this decision was already made by Messer, as one of the inheritors of the ancient mage school, he knew far more about the disputes between the arcanists and the gods than ordinary mages, and he knew that the true gods were more disgusted with the mage profession that had no faith and inherited the mage profession of the arcanists' pursuit of truth and exploration of the meaning of the existence of the world.

This is true even for true gods in the neutral camp of goodness like the goddess of agriculture, which is not something that the true gods and mages can decide, but choose to decide the path, because the true gods need faith, and the mages break the myths, and there is a conflict between them in nature.

If it weren't for the fact that the true gods were bound by the law and could not come to the main world in person, then the profession of mage, who was in a weak position, would have been erased from history by the gods together.

In the past thousand years, the overall strength of mages has weakened, and the division of the magic empire Bannai thousands of years ago has all been done by true gods in secret.

Knowing this, of course, Messer will not be at ease that his only disciple will act with a few gods, these elite clergy of the church are basically devout believers, and they usually seem reasonable, but once they violate the teachings upheld by the other party, then they will become extremely crazy and paranoid, especially those fanatical believers, even if they let them kill their parents, wives and children with their own hands in the name of God, they will not hesitate to abandon family affection, and treat those relatives as demonic heretics as killers.

"Of course not!" said Pastor Sood on behalf of the three of them.

"With a strong person like Master Messer joining, we have a lot more certainty of completing the task on this trip, of course, it's too late to welcome it!

"Alright, let's go in!" he said, jumping into the cave first.

The others followed, and two bright lights lit up in the dark underground passage, and it was Donald and the priest who performed the light spell together.

The light spell is a small spell that is common to all classes of arcane spellcasters and divine spellcasters, and it is similar to general auxiliary spells such as water creation and teleportation.

However, the young knight who was behind Donald saw that Donald did not chant a spell and casually released a ball of light, but her eyes narrowed, and she didn't know what to think.

"It's getting more and more interesting!"

Donald naturally didn't know what the young knight Ellie was thinking, and he didn't know that he had just made some heels on top of the small spell of light.

Keep in mind that while most of the spells and quasi-spells are identical in effect, they are somewhat different in nature. These differences are reflected in the way they are released.

Even if a mage is able to cast a spell without reciting any spell or using any gestures, the moment the spell is cast is still different from that of a spell-like cast.

Only the most experienced could tell the difference, and this young knight was one of them.

Donald is obviously a mage, how can he have a natural spell ability? Then there is only one explanation, that is, he has a different bloodline in his body, and he is a mage with the ability of a warlock.

"How many secrets do you have?

The girl smiled softly in her heart, but did not immediately ask questions, but followed the veteran down the underground passage without saying a word. !。
