1493. God's Blessing
Night falls, and darkness swallows up all places where there is light.
As a result, the demon legions fell silent, they did not dare to make any more moves, and even guarded the direction of the North Pass city wall.
The guards carried their weapons on their backs and roamed the walls slowly, and from time to time they would take advantage of the firelight to glance at the open area beneath the walls.
The demon warriors were probably scared, but the night was much quieter than the day, and the black pressure on the opposite mountain ridge could not tell where the mountain was and where the evil ghost was.
The original version of the battle on the city wall was still talking about the battle during the day, how Princess Delia had killed the demon general, and the original version that had been circulated was the closest to the truth, but after only one afternoon, many details had changed after polishing.
It sounded like Delia had beaten the demon general, and after an easy slash, she was only slightly injured.
After patrolling the city walls, Surdak walked down the zigzag steps behind the walls, and he climbed the walls at least three times a day, morning, noon, and evening, to observe the situation of the demon legions on the opposite side, so that he could respond at any time.
In fact, the demon army had already arrived two days ago without any demon army, but this group of evil spirits seemed to be still expecting something, and they had been reluctant to attack the northern city wall.
On this side of the northern city wall, 200,000 aboriginal warriors of the Aigrod tribe gathered, and the daily consumption of supplies is an astronomical amount.
Surdak also hopes that this unavoidable war can end quickly, but so far the demons have no intention of attacking.
Seeing that the rows of two-story buildings behind the city walls were lit up, and there were constantly aborigines coming and going in these buildings, Surdak slapped his forehead, thinking that Delia was injured, and as a paladin, he should go over to take a look.
Just below the steps of the wall stood a group of guards, who looked like they were preparing to change their defenses on the wall.
Surdak glanced at the street, hesitated, and stepped on the gravel under his feet towards Delia's stone house.
The streets were filled with idle Aboriginal warriors who, after dinner, would crouch on the side of the street on the cobblestone slabs, which were a little bumpy but made the streets look much cleaner.
There is even an unfinished stone sculpture at the crossroads, the upper body of the Aquarius Girl and the water bottle have been carved, the stone carving is covered with rough nicks, and the final fine polishing has not been done, but the water bottle has been filled with a 'water gathering' rune board, the mouth of the bottle gathers a rich water element, a trickle flows out of the mouth of the bottle, first falls in a sunken stone pit, and then flows out from the thin pipe in the stone pit, forming a first-class water column flowing into the ditch below.
More than a dozen aboriginal warriors are carrying clay pots and queuing up to receive water at this street entrance.
This kind of 'water gathering' rune board is all over the camp, but the water platform made in the camp is relatively rough, just a low stone wall, and there is no such artistic Aquarius girl.
Although this 'water gathering' rune board has been laid out for many days, there are still many aborigines gathered next to the water platform, looking at the water bottle that keeps flowing clear water with novel eyes, as if they must find out how much clear spring water is in that stone bottle......
Rejecting a warm invitation from a patriarch, Surdak walked to the stone house where Delia lived.
There happened to be two great witches in the courtyard who were about to go outside, and when they saw Surdak standing at the door, one of them immediately greeted him: "Commander Surdak, why are you here?" Please come in ......"
It seems that this great witch should be familiar with Delia, and can even send an invitation to Surdak as half a master.
Surdak walked into the courtyard and said casually, "Well, Grand Wizard Fiztier...... Is Captain Delia's injury better? ”
Seeing that Surdak could still accurately call out his name, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he said kindly: "The recovery is very good, it has the blessing power of the 'Divine Blessed Body', and just now Miss Nika used light magic to purify and heal the wound, and it is estimated that she will recover soon." ”
Surdak nodded, wondering if he should go in and take a look.
The Fitzteler Wizard had moved out of the way, and made a 'please in' gesture, looking at him eagerly.
Surdak strode into the stone house, and there were several female aboriginal warriors standing in the living room, presumably to take care of Delia.
A series of prayer voices came from the bedroom, although the other party spoke in the indigenous language, but there was some confusion between the syllables, and the words were spoken quickly, without breaking sentences, as if they were about to finish everything in one breath, and Surdak could not understand what was being said.
The female Aboriginal warrior in the living room looked like she was supposed to know Surdak, and she stared at him with wide eyes when she saw him walk in through the door.
Someone else hurried to the bedroom to inform Princess Delia of the news.
……
Surdak followed Fitztel into the bedroom, which was rudimentary, with only a bed by the window wall.
The bed was covered with a few pieces of leather, and Delia was wearing a hemostatic bandage, lying quietly on the bed, and her amber eyes flickered slightly when she saw Surdak.
Surdak didn't see the witch in the room who was reciting the natives for Delia, and he must have left quietly before he came in.
"Delia, how are you feeling?"
Surdak sat down on the edge of the bed and held out a hand, palm up.
A soft glow lit up from the palm of his hand.
He pressed the light into Delia's left shoulder.
The room was dimly lit, and the holy light reflected on the faces of everyone in the room, and the edge of the face was the dividing point between light and darkness.
The light penetrated the wound wrapped in the bandage, and the wound, which had healed quickly, seemed to be rejuvenated, and Delia stared at her shoulder with a strange light in her eyes.
There was no pain, no numbness from the healing, she could clearly feel the severed tendons and nerves reconnecting, and she tried to move her left arm, but she was able to move.
"Is this the Light?" Witch Fizterr stared at the vanishing light and asked Surdak.
"Yes, that's the power of the Light." Surdak nodded.
Witch Fitzteler seemed to be well aware of Delia's injury, he approached Delia, closed his eyes and sniffed the wound on her shoulder, and after a while, he sat up straight, opened his eyes and said, "No wonder Delia's injury recovers so quickly!" ”
Hearing Fitzterer say this, the faces of the female aboriginal warriors who took care of her showed joy.
Taking advantage of Surdak's use of the power of the Light to heal Delia's wounds, the Great Witch Fiztel introduced Surdak to Surdak:
"When Delia was chosen by Grand Elder Ambrobie, I didn't expect her to become the guardian of the Agrodes Temple, she has been training very hard since she was a child, she is the best among the younger generation, and she is also very talented in cultivating the Templar Inheritance Martial Arts......"
Fetztier's words were full of doting, and it was clear that there should be a deeper relationship between him and Delia.
"Delia's parents died young......"
To be honest, Surdak didn't like to hear the stories of this series very much, and in his subconscious, the tea garden girl raised by his grandfather after both her parents died was not a compliment.
But Fitztel didn't know that.
He begins with Delia's birth, and later talks about Elder Ambrobie's choice of Delia to take her into the Clan of Aegrod Sanctuary.
Then the two of them took advantage of this topic to talk about how Delia killed the ghost general not by luck, but by perseverance and hard work, so that she had the skills she has now.
Delia, who was lying on the hospital bed, couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"Grandfather, Commander Surdak......"
Delia lay on the bed and said directly to the two:
"The reason why I was able to kill that demon general this time is actually ...... I relied on a very detailed battle plan that Grand Elder Ambrobi had helped me make, and the 'Blessing of Wu Dixian' given to me by Grand Elder Ambrobie. ”
Surdak asked with a puzzled expression, "Is this ......?" ”
Fitzteler glanced at Delia helplessly and explained:
"If the Divine Blessing Body, the Blessed Shield, and the True Eye are called the blessings of the primary gods, then the overlord, the divine shield, and the insight are the blessings of the higher gods, and the 'blessings of Wu Dixian' are the blessings of the higher gods, and we call them the blessings of the third level of the gods."
Surdak did not expect that the sacrificial ritual could gain more power, so he asked the Great Witch Fiztier, "Does it mean that a higher sacrifice is needed to obtain this divine blessing?" ”
Shaking his head, Fitzteler the Witch explained:
"The third-level divine blessing is more demanding than you think, and it requires the sacrificer to have the power of the grandmaster or above......"
It was the first time that Surdak had heard that there was a higher level of divine blessing, and he hurriedly asked:
"Are you saying that you need to hold a sacrifice ceremony for the three strong people to obtain the 'blessing of Wu Dixian'?"
The Witch of Fitzteler obviously did not want to mention this matter, but after glancing at Delia, who was being healed by the Holy Light, he hesitated for a moment before sighing softly and said:
"To be precise, it takes a third-turn sect master with the power of Nephitian's bloodline to perform the 'Wu Di Xian's blessing' during the sacrifice ceremony, and performing this high-level blessing will make it impossible for the sacrificer to perform the sacrifice within three months."
The implication of Grand Witch Fiztimeler is that Grand Elder Ambrobi is a third-turn grandmaster.
It's no wonder that Surdak has a hard time perceiving his power every time he sees him...... Thinking of this, Surdak also broke out in a cold sweat.
Fortunately, I didn't offend him in any way, otherwise the consequences would be really hard to say......
Perhaps this is one of the reasons why the Legion of Demons did not kill the Egrod Clan.
Surdak thought to himself.
