Chapter 274: Hunting the Dragon Lizard and the Spread of Pain (Part II)

"Look at the place, it should be the dragon lizard's lair!"

In the wind and snow, the three figures cautiously approached the entrance of a huge underground cavern, the dark hole looked bottomless, like a monster with an open mouth, ready to devour everyone who entered it. A disgusting rancid smell came out, even the wind and snow in the far north could not dispel this smell, the leader Gelkite had long been accustomed to fighting with all kinds of monsters, and the two girls behind Gelkitt, especially Anvina, were almost vomiting with disgust.

After some hesitation, Anvina finally decided to continue to take this risk with Gerkate, after all, this is an opportunity that she finally seized, and it is a pity to let it go like this, and she is unwilling to leave a cowardly image in Gerkett's heart. After Anvina decided to continue to follow, the female assassin Milan was forced to act together by Anvina's statement.

"Can we really deal with dragon lizards? That kind of monster, the Karut Kingdom even used the magic crystal cannon back then. "Anvena is still a little worried, even if Gelkite is strong, he is still a human.

Gelkite took out a few magic scrolls from the spatial ring, turned his head and said to Anvina: "Although the scale armor of the dragon lizard is hard, its eyes and lower abdomen without scale armor are weak points, as long as you see the right time, you can kill it." ”

"Your Excellency Gelkate, I really don't understand why you are so insistent on killing dragon lizards, has anyone in Free City entrusted you?" Milan also has his own problems, in the eyes of the female assassin, even if someone entrusts Gerkite to hunt dragon lizards at a high price, Gerkite should at least bring his own Splittooth Tomahawk mercenary group, isn't it a bit too much to run to the far north alone

"Nobody entrusted me, I decide. ”

While speaking, Gelkite used the scroll, and a layer of magic film quickly applied to the three of them, and the disgusting stench was immediately blocked, and Anvina, who had been covering her nose, suddenly felt much better.

"Why?"

"Because I need its heart, and the dragon lizard is very valuable!" Gerkite smiled playfully and motioned in.

As one of the strongest species on the continent, the dragon lizard is indeed full of treasures, and the dragon lizard that was once eliminated by the Karut Kingdom was sold for a sky-high price in terms of flesh, leather, scale armor, and internal organs.

But ┉┉ to hunt dragon lizards for this reason, this is too unreliable!

The two girls shook their heads helplessly and followed Gerkite carefully into the cave, the disgusting smell in the cave has been isolated by the magic scroll, and the magic scroll also has the effect of night vision, the dark hole that was originally invisible to the five fingers was like day, Anvina followed behind Gerkite and moved her steps carefully, this is a steep slope, if you miss your footing, you will roll to the bottom like a gourd. Compared to Anvina's female assassin Milan, it is much easier, after all, as an assassin, Milan has operated in various adverse environments, this kind of slope is nothing. And Gelkett at the front was even more relaxed, Gelkett just took out his battle axe and held it on the ground, like a mountaineering pickaxe, so that Gelkett maintained his balance lightly.

With every step down, Anwena felt the blood in her body boiling a little more, and a dangerous warning rushed into her heart, and in an instant the girl felt that she seemed to know that the location of the dragon lizard was not far from her group, thinking of this, Anwena couldn't help but clench the longbow in her hand.

========================================

The sound of swords clashing echoed in the underground torture chamber, and although the cultists resisted desperately, they were no match for the heavily armed soldiers without regular weapons, and the brave battle of the soldiers who were almost furious by the horrific sight in the torture chamber soon ended the battle of disparity in strength. In addition to the fanatical believers who have gone completely crazy regardless of life and death, some of the cultists who are afraid of death still choose to be captured under the threat of the shining sword.

The captain of the guard, who led the team, gasped and regained his senses a little, and quickly gave the order: "Escort them out, rescue the survivors, and let the priests and physicians come in quickly." ”

Just as the guards were just about to free the survivors, the torture chamber shook like an earthquake, and the central steps began to sink into the ground with a cracking sound. In an instant, the entire torture chamber seemed to be swallowed up by a bottomless pit, and all kinds of torture instruments and corpses were swallowed up.

"It's collapsed! Run!"

"Everybody get out of here!!"

In the exclamation, the priest who had just come in and had not had time to treat the survivors immediately dragged the soldiers out, until the roar of the earth finally stopped after escaping from this underground chamber, and the people on the ground looked in horror as a black hole appeared in the center of the original plantation that did not know how deep.

Located in the western part of the continent, the visions that appeared in various places after the autumn made this behemoth that could compete with the Eastern Holy See quickly alerted.

- August 27: Cases of unidentified missing persons are reported in temples everywhere.

- August 31: The Farro Territory of the Grand Duchy of Houston Arrests the Plagiarium Zhanzhao Zhan Zhao Zhan Xuan

- September 6: Houston Grand Duke Leiria's Territory captures a group of cultists who have been kidnapped by their families to run a hotel in the form of a hotel, and dozens of bodies are found in the hotel's underground storage room, most of them are lodging travelers, but also recently missing from the territory. A number of torture instruments and a special emblem were found in the basement, all of which had been handed over to the Holy Capital for identification.

- September 7-September 12: Arrests of cultists have been reported in all countries of the Holy Capital, among which the situation in the Principality of Houston is the most severe, the temple in the area has been put on maximum security, and the Principality of Houston has also issued a curfew order according to the establishment of the city. The Holy Capital has sent two teams of Templars and fourteen priests to the Duchy of Houston to work together to capture the Cultists!

- September 14: The Holy Capital's 'Guanjiepan' has discovered that there is an unusual movement in the Law of the Interface, and from the analysis, it seems that Mosta, the Suffering Master of the Abyss, is trying to break through the blockade of the Law of the Interface and come to the present world, Her Royal Highness the Holy Virgin Flora has issued the highest alert order, and the countries of the mainland have also received the warning of the Holy Capital to strengthen the level of domestic security.

- September 15: An altar of demonic domination is discovered in the Kingdom of Córdoba, and the Kingdom of Córdoba's army works with the Templars to destroy and destroy the altar. According to reports, several low-level demons managed to cross the realm and enter the present world during the battle.

In the kingdom of Balleka, there was a crowd of people in the central square of the royal capital, and on the four gallows, more than a dozen condemned prisoners had been escorted to the gallows, one of these races was still the head of a small nobleman's family, but at this moment these sinners were pale. Under the curses and scolding of the onlookers, an executive officer came up with a notice and read it aloud, which roughly explained the identities of these people and their crimes, including kidnapping, murder, illegal imprisonment, blasphemy, collusion with demons, and sacrificing the living. didn't read a single charge, and the citizens in the audience shouted angrily.

"Hang them!

"Hang these cultists!"

"These hateful cultists, they don't even spare children. ”

The executor waved his hand to signal the agitated citizens below to be quiet, and then announced, "According to the laws of the kingdom, I declare that all prisoners are sentenced to be hanged, and they are now executed immediately!"

After the verdict was handed down, the whole square boiled, and when the executioners put black cloth on the prisoners' heads in turn, some people finally could not stand the fear of death and struggled frantically. For these demon-believing cultists and what they did, even the executioners were disgusted and kicked them hard. The rope of the gallows was quickly draped around the neck of the prisoner, who had been covered with black cloth, and the executioners tied heavy sandbags to his feet in shackles for the most efficient time. At the last moment before the execution, a priest belonging to the Holy Capital walked up to the prisoner, chanting some kind of incantation in his mouth, and drew a faint spell symbol on each of them in turn.

"Let them go to hell, let them go to hell!" shouted from the mouths of the people, many of whom were dissatisfied with the actions of the priests of the Holy Capital who were making a final prayer for the prisoners.

No matter how the citizens shouted, the priest did what he had to do with a blank face. When the executive saw the priest leaving, he quickly signaled to the executioners, and the four executioners immediately pulled the wrench, and suddenly the partition under the prisoner was opened, and everyone immediately hung straight in the air, and after convulsions, struggles, and unbelievable whimpering for a while in the face of death, the four prisoners did not move again. And in the next moment, a strange blue fire began to emanate from the prisoner's body, and vaguely everyone seemed to hear the prisoner's soul screaming and screaming, and soon calmed down.

Seeing this, the priest of the Holy Capital in the audience finally breathed a sigh of relief, in fact, if there was a certain necromancer among the citizens present, then as long as he looked at the symbols painted by the priest on the prisoner, he would understand that this was not a sign of prayer and blessing at all, but a kind of magic circle used to annihilate the soul in the necromancy, which could make the soul of the deceased be quickly incinerated the moment it left the body, simply put, it was completely dead and the world would not return to the sea of souls.

When ordinary people's souls die, they will return to the sea of souls to be shattered and reorganized, while the souls of sinners will fall into the twisted void and become a source of power to nourish demons!

Every cultist, every qiē they have done for a demon will be branded with the mark of that demon, and after their death, their souls will surely fall into the warped void and be tormented by endless pain until they become the food of the demons and the demons themselves, in this case, it is better to purify them completely, at least let the demons to whom they are loyal cannot get their souls!
