Returning to the room prepared for himself by Count Wicks Target, Zuo Si immediately appraised the amulet.

It turned out to be a [Damage Absorption Talisman].

Whether it's a pure physical attack or a variety of forms of energy attacks, it absorbs a portion of the damage for the wearer's resistance.

Although there is not much to resist and absorb, it can turn death into serious injuries and serious injuries into minor injuries at critical moments.

It can be said that it is quite practical.

It just so happened that Zuo Si also happened to lack a talisman now, so he wore it directly around his neck.

Just as he was about to eat something and then lie down on the bed and fall asleep, there was a sudden knock on the closed door.

The soldier who was accustomed to guarding the door immediately stood up vigilantly and asked through the door, "Who is it?" ”

"I'm Jahira! Want to talk to your host. ”

Jahira's recognizable voice came through the crack in the door.

"Let her in."

Zuo Si thought for a moment and immediately gave instructions.

He also happened to want some information from the two harpists about the port of Carlin.

Soon, as the soldiers opened the door, Jahira and Khalid walked straight in, who had been waiting outside for a long time.

In particular, Jahira, who has a relatively high perception attribute, immediately sensed how dangerous this warrior guarding the door of the room was, and subconsciously looked at it carefully, and then said straight to the point: "You have a box belonging to the Church of Shirek in your hand, right?" ”

"How do you know?"

Zuo Si pretended to be very surprised and asked rhetorically.

"Not long after you left Port Carlin with the caravan, someone was deliberately spreading gossip. Based on the information we have from our Harpist Alliance, the Church of Cirek has sent a team ready to launch a halfway interception to retrieve the crates. ”

Jahira didn't hide anything, and generously said everything she knew.

Because she understands that only in this way can she show sincerity and win the trust of the other party.

"Someone is deliberately spreading gossip in the dark?"

Zuo Si immediately frowned when he heard this.

It was a few minutes before he asked, "Do you know what's in that box?" ”

Jahira shook her head slightly, "I don't know. The only thing we know so far is that it was originally intended to be an offering to the gods that the Church of Shirek intended to offer to itself on the Holy Day, possibly from Baldur's Gate in the north. If so, can you give me a look at the box? ”

"No problem."

Without saying a word, Zuo Si took out the small box made of pure gold and covered with magic runes from his satchel.

Moment!

Both harpists were intrigued by the strong protective force on the box.

Jahira, who had studied divine arts, stretched out her hand and carefully touched the surface, and then couldn't help but exclaim, "This ...... This is the highest seal! OMG! No wonder the people of the Church of Cirek are crazy! I bet the contents must be extraordinary. ”

Zuo Si rolled his eyes angrily: "About this, I don't need you to say that I know." But now the question is, what to do with this box? If I throw it away, will the madmen of the Church of Shirek continue to hunt me down? ” …

"Nope! You can't throw it away! Nor can the lunatics of the church of Shirek get it! What's more, they already know that you did it, and even if they throw away the box, they will still launch retaliatory attacks and assassinations. ”

With just one sentence, Jahira dispelled the idea that the left thought wanted to avoid trouble by discarding the box.

After all, the vast majority of Ciric's followers and followers are psychotics and madmen.

The best way to get these guys to be honest is to have a horrific massacre.

Tell them with blood and death what it costs to provoke the unprovoked.

Thinking of this, Zuo Si couldn't help but sigh slightly: "Alas-then do you have any way to unlock these seals one by one without destroying the things inside?" ”

"Not right now. But when I get to Askatra, I'll be able to find an expert who is well-versed in the field. In addition, in order to protect you and the box, we have decided to accompany you on the rest of the journey. ”

Obviously, even though Zuo Si had already shown great spell casting ability, Jahira still felt a little uneasy.

"If the church of Shirek has locked me down. Then why don't I get their attention, and you guys secretly return to Ascatra by boat with the boxes? Zuo Si came up with another solution.

But Jahira immediately vetoed: "No! The other party will definitely use magic and magic to locate this chest.

I can't be like you, with magic covering probes twenty-four hours a day.

Once spotted, those guys will immediately cast teleportation magic to attack.

There is nowhere to run from the vast sea, and the two of us alone cannot withstand the siege of so many enemies. ”

"What a hassle! It's better to have a treasure of enough value in this thing. Otherwise, I'm sorry for the time and effort I put into this matter. ”

Zuo Si complained as he stuffed the box back into his satchel.

If he knew this thing was so sensitive, he wouldn't have put it away as a trophy in the first place.

The soldier's prediction was correct.

Alena's existence is a big problem in itself.

Fortunately!

After getting along for a long time, Zuo Si had found a knack for how to make this entourage a little more honest and obedient.

……

At the same time, far away in the ruins of the "Fort Tessel" in the north of Myratma.

A group of mysterious men in black cloaks are gathering and kneeling on the ground chanting psalms in praise of the gods.

Soon, the leader was enveloped by a dark red light shot from the altar.

I saw him stand up suddenly, and shouted at his companions behind him with a frenzied face: "Rejoice! My dear brothers and sisters!

Just now! The Great Lady of Poison, the mother of all plagues, Talona has given an oracle!

Her only chosen one in the mortal world has come!

This plague child has terrible viruses and bacteria in his body!

And has managed to destroy a world!

Billions of living beings have died in fear of plague and disease!

Their despair and wails echoed through countless planes and crystal walls in the ears of the great Talona!

All we have to do now is find him and bathe him in the bounty of the Lady of Poison. ”

"So what are you waiting for? We should go right now! ”

The other man also stood up, his eyes shining with excitement and anticipation.

The guy in the lead gently patted his companion on the shoulder and explained, "Don't worry! The Poison Lady also gives a message in the oracle that the other gods have also noticed the coming of the elect and are likely to resort to some despicable means. We must be careful not to allow the enemy's plot to succeed. ”

"Humph! Whoever the enemy is, they are all dead this time. After all, we came prepared, gathering the best of all the temples and churches in the surrounding area. ”

"That's right! Soon, all mortals in this world will tremble before the power of Talona. The cities and countries that have expelled us will pay the price for their stupidity. ”

"May the Goddess and her chosen people send down the plague of death, and let these ungodly nations and cities fall and perish in agony and despair."

"Come on! Let's set out at once to find news from the electorate. ”

It didn't take long for the priests and devotees of Talona, the goddess of poison and disease, to turn around and leave the ruins in droves.

There were quite a few of them, hundreds of them.

This is already quite a formidable force.

Especially those high-ranking pastors.

Almost every one of them possesses the ability to spread a terrible plague in populated areas. . .
