Chapter 62: Saruman, the White-robed Priest
When Mo He and Sephie ended talking, the black-armored warrior Andro had been resting on the bed in the room. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info Pooh made a strange noise.
The two hurriedly went to look, only to find that Andro's face was full of black gas, and his eyes were faintly glowing green.
"Oh no! Holy water treatment is too late, voodoo may have infected his heart. Sephie shouted for clarification.
"What now?" asked Mo He.
"I can't cast any more spells today, and there is holy water here, feed him to drink, and keep him sane for the time being. ”
Sephie reached in from the side of her white armor and pulled out a glass vial containing a glowing liquid.
After Mo He saw Sephie take out the bottle, he hurriedly restrained Andro's hands, and then Sephi uncorked the bottle, stretched out one hand to press Andro's head, and the other hand quickly poured the liquid from the thin bottle into Andro's mouth.
Ahh
Andro screamed and struggled desperately, and the bottle was bitten by him, but the bottle was hard and not bitten.
The liquid poured smoothly into his mouth, and it was like sulfuric acid flowing from his mouth to his throat.
Andro's feet stomped indiscriminately, and Mo He found that Andro's strength was getting bigger and bigger, and this strength was no longer like ordinary people.
"Sephie, get out of the way! I can't control him anymore. Mo He shouted loudly.
Sephie hurriedly retreated to the rear.
After Mo He saw Se Fei retreat, he also hurriedly let go of his hand, retreated to Se Fei's side, and held the silver iron spear standing aside in his hand.
"What now?" Mo He didn't know what was going on with Andro, so he could only ask Sephie.
"I don't know! I've seen this for the first time. It seems to be a mutation, a special mutation of ghouls. Sephie replied nervously.
The two men saw that Andro's body was undergoing strange changes - his fingers and elbow joints were beginning to grow sharp bony white thorns. The armor on his back made the sound of being rubbed against the bones, and it was supposed that strange bone spurs were growing on his back.
Mo He felt that the situation was very inappropriate, his fighting spirit was full of arms, and he took two steps forward, and the silver iron spear stabbed at Andro's head with a thunderous roar and a sound of breaking the air.
Poof!
Andro actually reached out to block Mo He's blow, but the entire arm was pierced by the silver iron spear and all the bones were shattered, sacrificing an arm to protect the most critical head.
Suddenly, Andro burst out of the bed and attacked Mo He, and the arm was twisted and broken on Mo He's silver iron spear.
Mo He didn't have time to withdraw the silver iron spear, so he could only possess his left hand with luck and grab the other hand that the opponent grabbed at him.

The bones of Andro's other hand were also crushed by Mo He and torn off his body by Mo He.
Andro, who had lost his hands, knocked Mo He away with his body that was still wearing armor, and Sephi Lian behind him dodged to the side to avoid being hit by the monster.

The monster that Andro transformed into smashed directly into the wooden window on the second floor and had fled outside.
Mo He hurried to the window in a few steps, looked out from the broken window, and found that although the monster had no arms, it did not affect the running.
The mutated feet were exceptionally strong and powerful, and they jumped onto the roof with ease, then jumped to the roof on the other side of the street, and quickly disappeared out of town.
"Wash your hands. Behind him, Sephie's eager voice came, and at the same time, the sound of the cork being pulled out rang out.
Mo He realized that when he broke Andro's arm, there was some green liquid flowing from the monster's arm stuck to his hand.
Although he had always used Dou Qi to protect his arm, he didn't know if this voodoo could break through the Dou Qi protection and penetrate into his body, so Mo He still hurriedly washed his hands with holy water with Se Fei's help.
"Alright, I still have one last bottle of holy water on me, and I hope we won't need it again today. We will now rush back to the camp and report back on the situation. ”
Sephie re-stuffed the empty vial and carefully tucked it into her bosom, then picked up her sword from the side.
"Okay, you lead the way, I'll follow you. ”
Mo He also took his silver iron spear and quickly left the stone house with Sephie.
Under Sephie's guidance, the two left Ravenstone in a southeasterly direction.
After about half an hour's journey, Mo He saw the camp at the foot of a rocky mountain from a distance.
The camp was mostly gray-green military canvas tents, with only two large white tents in the corners of the camp, and roughly speaking, the camp should be able to accommodate five or six hundred soldiers.
Sephie was stopped outside the camp gate by the black-armored guards, one guard went in to inform, and the rest of the guards were on guard.
"Rest assured, I'm not infected with voodoo!" Sephie said loudly to the guards who stood in her way, but they didn't seem to have any intention of letting her in, even though she was a paladin.
An old man in a white robe came out of the camp with the black-armored guards who reported the news, and this white-robed old man held a staff with a very smooth polished body in his hand, and the top of the staff was a white crystal stone as big as a fist with a polished and shiny surface, and it seemed that the purpose should be the same as the staff in the hand of the eighth master.
"Lord Saruman!" Sephie saw the old man in white come out, and hurriedly put his sword in front of him with both hands, and knelt down on one knee and saluted the old man.
The black-armored guards who blocked Sephie from entering also straightened up their spears and bowed to the old man in white.
The old man in white named Saruman nodded in response, and when he saw Mo He, who didn't react behind Se Fei, he just looked at it a few more times, and then stopped paying attention.
"Get up, our paladin, Sephie, let me check your injuries. Saruman bent over and helped Sephie to his feet.
"My pleasure, Lord Saruman!" said Sephie, thanking Saruman.
Mo He saw the dazzling white light of Saruman's hand stretched out towards Sephie's wound, and he was secretly surprised in his heart - isn't this the spell that Sha Anna has been using to heal his wounds? It seems that Sephie's wound should heal soon.
Sure enough, the black scab formed from Sephie's wound fell, revealing the new flesh that covered the surface, which was much more powerful than pouring a bottle of holy water on it.
Soon the treatment was over, and Saruman was not sweating profusely like Shaanna, and seemed to have enough energy to spare.
"Alright Sephie, your injuries are all right. Come in with me and tell me what happened to you today. ”
"Wait a minute, Lord Saruman, please allow me to introduce you to my savior, Wren!, a wandering mercenary!" Sephie called out to Saruman, who was about to turn back to the barracks.
"Oh, haha, hello Wren, I'm Saruman, the white-robed priest of the Temple. Thank you for saving our paladin, and if you don't mind, please come with me to the barracks to rest for a while. Saruman introduced himself with a smile and very politely invited Mo He into the camp.
"Yes, thank you, Lord Saruman, for your kindness. Mo He learned Sephie's tone to thank Saruman, but he didn't do much else, he didn't know much about the etiquette of this world.
Saruman didn't mind Mohe's faux pas, he turned around with a smile and led the way in front, and the soldiers on guard respectfully watched Saruman and the others leave, and then returned to their respective posts and continued to guard the gate of the camp.
Entering the barracks, Saruman placed Mo He in a resting shed, called the black-armored soldiers to fetch some food, and then said goodbye to Mo He and took Sephie into one of the large white tents.
Mo He only noticed that the big tent was embroidered with a lightning shield pattern, and the lightning symbol was the same as the sign on the Church of the Gods seen in Turtle Rock City.
The black-armored soldier came with a wooden plate, placed the dry bread and a jug of fruit milk on the table under the shed, and left.
From time to time, soldiers passed by, and when they saw Mo He sitting in the shed, they didn't look much and left in a hurry.
Looking at the food on the table, Mo He felt a little hungry, the breakfast he ate before dawn today is already noon, and it should be time for lunch.
Grabbing the bread, pouring the wine into the bowl for serving, Mo He gulped down his lunch.
Lunch was gone, and Sephie hadn't come out of the white tent yet, Mo He leaned back on the chair next to the table and thought about his next plan.
After a while, when Sephie finished talking about business, he was going to ask her to help inquire about the news of the Eighth Master, that Saruman seemed to have a very high status in this camp, if he could ask him to help pay attention to the clues of the Eighth Master, then the next thing would be much easier.
When he thought of Saruman, he remembered the scene of Sephie being treated at the gate of the camp, and the shining white light of his hands, I don't know what it was called, was very similar to Shaanna.
"Hey~ I don't know how Wren and Shaanna are doing, but now they are in Wutong City. Would Mr. Hovdent be happy to go with Wren and Shaanna? After all, he is a businessman, and if he is with him, it should be easy to leave the Rongen Empire by boat. ”
Mo He unconsciously began to mutter Shaanna and Wren in his heart, and after only one day of separation, Mo He felt uncomfortable in his heart.
Although he said that after finding the eighth master, he would go back to find them together, but judging from the monsters encountered today, this is much more tricky than what he has experienced before, otherwise people like the eighth master would not have rushed to Misty City to investigate.
In the end, the monster that Andro conjured up was very different from the several ghouls he had fought before, both in strength and reaction speed, and his physical fitness was different from those ghouls.
Maybe there will be a lot of such monsters in Misty City, Mo He swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
Then the resoluteness of the eighth master's face when he left suddenly appeared in his mind, as well as the angry face of resolutely not letting himself go along, Mo He had an ominous premonition in his heart, and he prayed silently in his heart: "I hope nothing will happen to the eighth master!"
Phew!
Mo He spit out twice, shook his head, and then poured himself another bowl of fruit milk and drank it in one go, which temporarily suppressed the uneasiness in his heart.
Seeing that no one has come out of the white tent yet, it has been a long time, and I don't know what is being discussed inside.
