Chapter 61: The Burial Ground (2)
Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
In order to get to the Great Holy Hall in the fastest and safest way, Link specially made a real yàn with the special skills he had just gathered—using all four skills at once.
God God judges the auspiciousness along the way, God knows the accurate route of the prophecy, God now uses divine power to make marks, and God solidifies and stabilizes the symbols.
It's easy to think, but it's very hard to actually implement.
Nature's forces don't require the use of lengthy incantations like mages, but they require mental manipulation and precision in every step. Using four special skills at the same time, the surging divine power made Link feel that his physical energy was instantly drained, and if it weren't for his willpower to barely stay awake, he almost fell from mid-air.
Woo...... The next time you do this kind of thing, it's safer on the ground.
Recovering from a brief period of paralysis, Link vowed never to mess around again.
Although it is dangerous, the results are also significant. The embodied divine power is seen to draw a marker in the air in the route according to prophecy, just like a GPS location map, the huge arrow always points in the right direction, and every time Link flies along the marking, the divine power scattered in the air is recycled into the body. Because the force of nature is different from ordinary magic, no one can see it except the children of nature, and Link is not worried about being seen by others in the sky.
With the blessing of the addition technique, speed in the direction pointed by the arrow. When I was tired, I used nature to heal, day and night, and it only took three days to fly to my destination.
At noon, a city appears on the horizon, and unlike the Gothic Hohenheim, the architecture of the Great Church follows a simple, majestic route, with columns everywhere that resemble those of ancient Greece. This magnificent city has no walls, but its teachings and enchantments refuse outsiders to enter, and Link flying over the city only feels that there is an invisible wall of air that he can't get close to.
With the increase in level and skill, Link's current avatar is no longer more than a foot long at the beginning, but a little larger than the largest bird of prey, the vulture, and is very conspicuous in the clear sky. The Church Knights, who were patrolling around the city, quickly noticed the wind falcons in the sky and quickly gathered towards him, so many that Link broke out in a cold sweat, and the dwarf Dante said that the five thousand permanent people did not have any water.
Not wanting to create unnecessary tension, Link descended to the ground. Raising his voice through the barrier to shout to the knight of Dawn who was closest to him, the knights did not immediately let him go, but sent two people to report the news, and the rest formed a circular phalanx to wait, not letting down his vigilance at all because he was a child of nature.
Don't let in, okay.
Link didn't irritate them, he stood obediently with his hands behind his back, looking left and right, well, how could it be like he had just fought a battle? The attention in the sky was all attracted by the buildings in the city, and he didn't notice that the ground outside the city was covered with ravines several meters deep, which did not seem to be formed naturally, but seemed to be squeezed by some external force. The dirt floor, still damp, was stamped with messy footsteps, most of which belonged to the Knight of Dawn not far away. Their opponents seemed to be some kind of large beasts, their claws embedded deep in the dirt, leaving deep imprints, and there were quite a few of them. Judging by the brown marks remaining on the ground, the battle should have been fierce and heavy casualties.
Who could it be? Dare to come to the headquarters of Dawn to make trouble.
Link walked over curiously, and reached out to compare with the already dry and hard dirt floor, and suddenly felt something bad.
This volume ...... It seems to be a synthetic beast from Longyan Castle.
Thinking of Gonzalez, who had transformed into an undead, Link suddenly lost his mood.
The messenger brought back an old man dressed in white robes, with a slightly more elaborate embroidery than the priest's attire suggesting that he might be a priest or a higher church official.
"Good day. The old man bowed slightly to Link, the clergy would not have too cumbersome etiquette with each other.
Link nodded at the other party, once again identifying himself, "I am an emissary sent by the Natural Alliance to conclude the treaty. ”
He had come this time to form a formal alliance with the Dawn Sect on behalf of the Natural Alliance, not to inspect the bones of the harsh winter. The burial ground is the resting place of the high-ranking priests of Dawn and the previous priests, and until conclusive evidence is gathered, the birdman does not build a yì Link adventure. That could lead to the breakdown of the alliance that had just been made, which is exactly what Frost is happy to see.
Link had a hunch that he would stay in the Great Church for a long time, at least longer than Longyan Castle, which left in three or five days, and Hohenheim, where one day was comparable to January.
The invisible barrier still hasn't been opened, and the priest asks Link to cast a representative nature magic to prove the identity of the Child of Nature.
I'm worried that my identity is fake, Gonzalez, what the hell have you done to make them so jealous......
Link casts a life bloom on the ornamental trees on both sides of the avenue that have been destroyed in the fighting, and the broken branches grow new branches, and the withered flowers bloom again, a miracle that only Isol, who is in charge of life energy, can perform. As long as it is not fully dead, Isol's power can restore the vitality of any living being.
The old man threw a bracelet made of yellow beads to Link and motioned for him to put it on, and with the protection of the amulet, Link succeeded in passing through the guò enchantment, and the knights' phalanx dispersed, leaving only a small team.
The old man led Link to a single-story stone house and arranged for him to rest here first. Probably due to the fact that the people who lived there were ascetics, the structure of the outer buildings was relatively simple, and even the places dedicated to entertaining foreign guests had only simple furniture.
"The High Priest is holding an important meeting with the Bishops and is unable to see you for the time being. ”
Listening to the tone, I don't know how long this important meeting will take to go. Link wasn't in a hurry either, and the fact that he couldn't meet him just gave him time to wander around, looking for possible traces of the harsh winter and the priest named Leo.
"What's going on with those traces out there?"
"Ten days ago, the traitors of Dragonrock Fort led a group of undead dragoons in an attempt to break into the Great Sanctuary, killing and wounding Bishop Leo who had arranged to receive you. ”
"Could it be the Leo who knew Gonzalez?" Link tugged at the old man's sleeve.
"You know him?"
"No......" Link quickly let go of his hands as he realized he was too excited, "I just heard Dwarf Dante talk about Gonzalez's early adventures with a priest named Leo. ”
The old man sighed, "It is this matter that the High Priest and the Bishops discussed, the Northern Campaign lasted for ten years, not only the Twelve Leaders, but even the Dawn Sect, which had the strongest strength in the Order Camp, could not bear it. ”
I didn't want to talk about it more, the old man left without even leaving his name, and before leaving, he explained that the range that Link's talisman could enter was only the outer area, so as not to walk around, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.
If you can't get into the center of the Great Church, you can go to Paine, and when he calls, doesn't he say that he is in the outer martial arts hall, maybe you can get useful information from him.
The old man walked on his front foot, and Link left the stone house where he had been temporarily stayed. Although no one was following him, his mountain people were clearly out of place here, and they were dazzling everywhere they went.
After inquiring all the way, he finally found Paine, who was training, under the guidance of a kind priest. The hall is an open plaza where many players and NPCs gather to train their basic swordsmanship.
Paine was pleased with Link's appearance, and before he could get closer, he suddenly stopped and stared at Link up and down with a strange expression.
"What?" Link looked down at himself, there was nothing wrong with it.
"You have a very strange energy in you...... "Kan En can't see it, but can feel it."
Oh...... He's talking about divine power, and it's hard for clergy to 'see' each other's divine power, unless it's the user who embodies it.
Knowing that it was the power of the Children of Nature, Paine was not as entangled as Yuan Ye to make it clear, and the topic naturally talked about Link's purpose for coming to the Great Sanctuary this time.
"You've probably heard of Frost, he was originally a player, turned into a lich, and my mission is related to him. Considering the danger of the mission, Link didn't say that Frost was his main game.
"Wouldn't that be dead in reality?" Paine was a clever man, and he could make sense of it.
"Yes, I don't understand it either, I just heard that he seems to be in poor health, maybe he wants to extend his life and place his soul in this false game fantasy. Link shrugged, if he were him, he wouldn't have done such a stupid thing, birth, old age, sickness and death are the laws of all things. Don't be stupid, the gods will still die, not to mention the undead who put their souls on the life box, maybe the soul is reincarnated, and when the undead are completely annihilated.
"What can I do to help, though, I've been here for a month and know some inside information that outsiders don't know. Since that phone call, the gap between Paine and Link has gone.
"Do you know ten days ago, I mean ten days before the game time when the undead tried to rush in. ”
When he mentioned the incident of his life ten days ago, Paine, who was a player, also had a palpitating expression on his face: "Of course, I still watched it up close, and I regretted changing jobs a little when I thought of going to the north to fight the undead in the future." ”
"Commander, do you see clearly?"
"Yes, a death knight in black armor, although only a skeleton remains, he can still infer that he was tall and burly before he was born. Like the DK in Warcraft, it's very stylish, his sword is powerful, and he swept away a few church knights with a casual swing of sword energy. Paine foamed at the mouth, and Link sighed.
It's a pity that he didn't meet Gonzalez, and I'm glad he didn't, and he really can't go all out with his current mentality.
"I heard that I hurt a bishop named Leo?"
"What else are you asking me from if you're so well informed?" Paine squinted at Link. Okay, the talent has just arrived, and he knows more than me, "How can I know what it's called, I'm cutting the number and retraining now, a small role at the bottom, or a novice stage." I only know that it is a big man, and the church leadership has urgently convened a meeting for this purpose, which has been several days. ”
Not...... It seems that the old man was not prevaricating when he said that the emergency meeting was meeting. Since Paine doesn't know about Leo, it seems that he has to start from the Dawn Sect, tsk~ trouble.
Link was thinking about how to approach Leo when a blunt sword with no edge was handed in front of him.
"If you say you're here, you'll accompany me through the training, don't think about slipping away. Paine looked excited, "We've never had a serious fight." ”
