Chapter 13: The Hallows Weapon
readx; Although William controlled Celia, his side was obviously at an absolute disadvantage. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoThe situation was at an impasse for a while, and in the end, it was Augustus who spoke first.
"It's useless for us to be frozen like this, or we'll just get out first. If we really want to fight, there are a lot of people on our side, and you won't think about any casualties, right?"
Quincy frowned and was silent, he wanted to agree. But when he saw William stepping on the position on Cilia's body, he was angry and jealous. If I stepped on that place...... The thought in Quincy's mind flickered.
Celia, who was lying on the ground, suddenly said, "I have a better proposal. Those mercenaries, if you are willing to join us, you will get a thousand gold coins and the friendship of the Church of Light!......" As soon as Celia finished speaking, William's feet added a little more force to her upright ass, and he looked back at the mercenaries coldly. A thousand gold coins may not be much, but the Church of Light ...... No one on this continent will want to offend. At the very least, it should be simple to choose between a friendship and a wanted post.
Sure enough, the mercenaries looked at each other, then walked behind Quincy and confronted William.
Now, William is the only one on his side, and Augustus is the only one.
"William, if you take your foot away now, I can guarantee your safety. Celia, who seemed to see hope, said. Even now being trampled on the ground by William in such a humiliating way, she is still so beautiful. It's just that the blush of her beautiful face under the mask obviously destroys her beauty at this time.
"Hmph, I didn't expect you to be a member of the Church of Light. It's just that I've heard that the Church of Light never interferes in worldly things, and I've never provoked you. Why do you keep pushing me?" William sneered. When he heard the words of the Church of Light, his heart still trembled uncontrollably, but then he regained his composure.
"It's true that we don't meddle in worldly affairs, and we're only here to find something. As for you, it's a complete accident. And, if you get out of here, I promise they won't hurt you. Celia said.
The conversation between the two is completely normal, but the two of them are in a somewhat ambiguous posture at the moment...... Augustus and Quincy were dumbfounded.
It's just that William didn't feel this at all, he nodded and said, "But you have to accompany me out." ā
"Yes. Celia said very simply.
William lifted the foot that stepped on her, but the mace in his hand did not dare to relax in the slightest, and Augustus next to him also held the sword in his hand. When Celia stood up, she suddenly smiled mysteriously, raised her elbow and slammed it into William's ribs. William single-handedly blocked Celia's attack, and Celia seized the opportunity to leap forward and escape William's control.
"Kill them!" roared Quincy from the side.
"Bastard!!!" William was furious, he hated himself for letting such a low-level mistake actually happen to him. He grabbed two maceheads and struck them first, leaving no one behind. Behind him, Augustus followed him closely, guarding his side.
The nail head hammered into the body of a mercenary, and the armor of the mercenary that was shattered in an instant hit the mercenary's body, and it made a sound of water. The mercenary's leg had already been smashed by William! But after all, it was not critical, at most it would only become lame later. However, in the mercenary industry, disability is more difficult for him to accept than death. Augustus behind him was also slashing at the enemies around him, but Augustus was not good at martial arts after all, and after a while, several wounds appeared on his body. William's anger in his heart couldn't be greater, and the most fierce attack at this moment was not Celia or the people behind Quincy, but the mercenaries who were still on his side before! Under the anger, William's attack was also very heavy, almost a stump brought out with a wave of his hand. But William didn't kill them, he just crippled the mercenaries. When Celia next to her saw this scene, she felt a chill in her heart.
But William was only two people after all, and he was facing those mercenaries and warriors who had very rich combat experience, and the magician next to him began to curse William with all kinds of negative magic, which made William more and more difficult. He even felt like he couldn't even hold the weapon in his hand, and his movements were sluggish like a snail. The mercenaries had all been disabled by him, and at the moment he was facing only one person, Celia.
"Aren't you very imposing just now?" Celia sneered and kicked William to the ground. Lifting the spotless boots, he stomped William. The magical armor protected William's body. But listening to the sound of metal grinding, it was clear that the armor would not last long. And Celia also discovered the secret of William's body, so she changed to stomping.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Celia had unimaginable strength on her small feet, and in a few strokes she trampled the armor that William had bought for five hundred gold coins. Celia still didn't stop, stomped on the side again and again, and said viciously: "Aren't you arrogant except for your name? Now show me another one of your arrogances! You bastard! Damn bandit! How dare you do that to me! I'm going to burn you alive at the stake!"
With every word, she stepped on William with her foot up...... stomped it, and later felt that William's skin was rough and thick, but he was shocked and his legs were a little numb, so he stopped. She looked at Augustus, who was lying on the ground next to her, panting, and said to Quincy, "Tie them all up, don't kill them." When we get the Hallows, I'm going to burn them at the stake!"
Quincy answered, looked at Celia's legs, and thought of the previous few times, and was a little envious of William. "Well, it would be nice if it was me who was trampled on. Also, if you look at it from that angle, you should be able to see the most hidden place. Quincy thought sourly. He even thought that he would have to find some way to anger Celia in the future, so that he could be honored to be treated the same as William?
It's just that William at this time didn't have any sense of "honor" at all. He had only one thought in his mind: kneeling again!
He had no strength at all at this time, not even the strength to pull out the magic scroll in his arms.
Augustus was worse than William. The wounds on his body were not large, but they were numerous. And...... The thought in his heart was: The armor of five gold coins and the armor of five hundred gold coins are really different!
His armor had long since been cut to pieces, and in many places it was still fleshy.
"Tie them up! That William had a lot of strength and a strange body. Quincy, you'd better keep having a negative effect on him!Alright, let's move on. ā
"Uh...... Miss Celia, are we going to take them in search of the Hallows?" Quincy asked as she cast a curse on William.
"Are you going to leave them here? what if they run away?" Celia frowned and continued, "This William is a bandit, and he has a gang of bandits. If we don't, he'll call those accomplices to surround us! And I'm not angry if I kill him now!"
Quincy nodded helplessly.
William and Augustus were bound with a thick rope by several men. As for the mercenaries who are not dead yet, who will remember them?
Celia closed her eyes and felt the faint feeling in her heart, pointed in a direction, and took the lead. She didn't see that William's face turned strange when her hand pointed in the direction.
"Could it be...... Is it the same thing?" thought to William, but then denied it in his heart. He could also feel a kind of calling at the moment, but since it was a Church of Light thing, it probably wouldn't have anything to do with him.
At least, William never understood what faith was.
The group continued to move on, and occasionally some wind could be heard from the dark cave. In the rugged cave it turned into a bizarre hiss. William was in a negative state of weakness, sluggishness, hallucinations, poisoning, and so on. I don't know why, that Quincy always feels so ...... when he looks at himself William walked in a daze, but the voice of the call in his heart grew stronger and stronger, which kept him awake for the last moment. Moreover, it seems that the effect of these spells is somewhat weaker. At least, William felt it.
Finally, Celia stopped in front of a collapsed rubble and frowned at the messy pile of stones. "It should be in there. Celia said. So, Quincy commanded several people to start digging. Even then, he wasn't forgetting to throw a few curse spells at William.
Soon, the stones were removed by the men. What appeared in front of everyone was a smooth and flat stone door. Celia searched around for a while, but couldn't find a switch to activate the gate. So he said, "Smash it!"
Several fighters with heavy blunt weapons banged. However, after half a day, the stone debris that was smashed flew but did not fall, and the mountain wall around the stone gate had begun to fall with dust. It is estimated that before the stone door could be smashed open, the cave had already collapsed. Celia had to tell the men to stop. William looked at the stone gate in a daze, and said, "This ...... Stone Gate, like ...... Seems to be raised, huh...... You let ...... Try having a few people lift them up from below. William said a little delirious.
Celia called a few more people to do what William said, and sure enough, the stone gate loosened for a while, and several people lifted it up below. Celia hurried through, and the red-faced people couldn't hold out for long. Behind the stone gate, William vaguely saw that it was an altar. It's just that it's very dark, and there's no light at all. Quincy unleashed a lighting spell, and the crowd saw the altar in plain sight.
This thing is a very wide altar. The altar is painted with an intricate magic circle, and this magic circle is obviously in the center, with three zigzag chests in place. The sound of calls was coming from inside the box.
"The Three Sacred Vessels......" Quincy said excitedly. Even the body was trembling faintly.
Celia walked up to the altar and opened the three chests one by one. But when she opened the second box, William shook. The call almost burst out of my heart.
Celia opened the third box and finally smiled contentedly, "Helmet of the Sun!" Quincy hurriedly walked to the altar, looked at the Helmet of the Sun in Celia's hand, and burst into tears with excitement: "I...... We've found it! We've found the lost artifact! Hahaha, we've finally found it!"
"What is this?" asked William.
"It's ...... This is a holy artifact! this is our faith, this is a holy artifact more precious than our lives!" Quincy burst into tears, her eyes fixed on the golden helmet. He even forgot that William shouldn't have answered this question.
"This is the Helmet of the Sun, as long as we have it, we can get the favor of the gods!" Celia also looked at the Helmet of the Sun in her hand blankly, as if she couldn't believe that she had obtained the lost holy weapon so easily?
"What about the two, are they also holy weapons?" William looked at Celia.
"It's a holy object, but it's not a holy object of our church. The one in my hand is the Helmet of the Sun, which is said to be the exclusive equipment of the god king Odin. It is also the sacred object of our church. Those two are the Scepter of the Raging Waves and the Code of Annihilation. The Scepter of the Raging Waves is exclusive to Poseidon, the Sea King, and the Codex of Silence is exclusive to Harris, the Immortal King. Only those who can call on the spirit of the Sacred can find it and receive the Divine Inheritance. Celia said a lot of things that William didn't understand.
William was eager to ask those kings what they were. But after thinking about it, the answer I got was not a so-called faith, but a few negative curses, so I changed the question: "What is the inheritance of the gods?"
"The inheritance of the gods can be obtained by the gods...... "Celia suddenly came to her senses, and then said angrily: "Why should I tell you? Find out who you are now! William, you are just my captive now! Quincy, give him a few more negative state magic!"
William pouted, but knew it. It was the black book that called him here. It's what Celia calls the Code of Silence. And it was obviously the golden Helmet of the Sun that called for Celia. "Harris...... The Code of Annihilation," William wrote down these two words in his mind.
Quincy had just given William a state of weakness when suddenly, the entire altar shook, interrupting his spell casting. Then, there was an even more violent vibration. Stones began to fall around the altar.
"Yes...... Intruder!" A vague voice came to mind around the altar, and Cilia's face changed and she hurriedly said, "Quick, battle formation." The Altar Keeper has appeared!"
