Chapter 178: Shrines, Ancient Gods?
The power of the shrine?
As soon as the word appeared, it caught the attention of several veteran players.
Inexplicably, Riben Guizi, Daji, and Pastry they glanced at each other, and they all saw questions in each other's eyes.
In the premise of this game, the humans of this world regard the shrine as a hoodoo.
They are generally called extraterrestrial meteorites.
The name Shrine is only circulated among players, and this is the first time they have heard an NPC call it.
As for the power of the shrine, believe in the ancient gods. That's even more bizarre.
Players have no idea about this.
What do you mean by "resurrection"? Isn't that the premise of an online game? How can there still NPCs struggle with this matter?
If you really can't, you just think of us as faders.
Looking at the NPC in front of him who was bringing him huge pressure, Riben Keiko said cautiously: "Your Excellency. Why? β
The man who claimed to be an oath-keeper was dressed in a Buddhist robe, with a scimitar hanging from his waist, a round metal shield engraved with unknown runes on his back, and a metal top hat with a swallowtail.
Only when there is a faint golden light shining above the head will people feel the coercion of a fourth-order professional.
He looked at so many players and shook his head.
"The living have passed away, you should not stay in this world for a long time, your fate has been absolutely left in this world, you have violated the constraints of the three witch gods, and believe in the evil ancient gods, please return to the gods with me to participate in the purification ceremony in secret."
Inexplicably eagerly asked, "Is there any benefit to us after participating in the purification ceremony?" Will you change to a hidden class? β
Lori said faintly: "It's better to ask if it's more reliable to live after purification." β
The angel of God honestly said, "Your body will die, but your soul. It will be sublimated, and it will be reborn into a happy family in the next life. β
Players: "? β
"Day your mother!"
"Stupid thing!"
"Climb for you!"
"What a hook Yagami stick!"
Be all abroad!
People are so good at brushing the monster, and suddenly they want to kill them.
Riben Guizi: "Hurry up!" Seeing that you are a reinforcement of the Human Alliance, I won't fight you, and next time I come to us to find trouble, and sublimate your soul! β
The oracle was not annoyed.
He smiled, pointed to the sky, and said, "There are gods three feet above your head, and the three witch gods have noticed you people who have been polluted by the ancient gods. Sooner or later it will be purified. β
"The world doesn't need resurrected people."
After finishing speaking, he turned his head and left, and his steps were several meters away, and he seemed to be walking slowly but was actually very fast! Flowers burned like lotus flowers in the places where they passed underfoot.
"Good fellows! Shrinking the ground into inches? Step by step? β
"Damn, I met a cultivator!"
"I sensed danger on the flames, and I couldn't touch the place he walked on. By the way, who knows what the [Oath-keeping] inheritor does? What is a fourth-order professional talent? β
"Damn, he's so good at pretending, I'm so envious!"
When the other players were sighing at the strange steps of this divine envoy, their eyes were inexplicably condensed, and their hearts were horizontal:
"Damn, the bold and the starved and the cowardly, come to us and want to leave after pretending? Brothers, why don't you catch him with me, and then you will have everything!" β
The players were puzzled by this oracle, and ran away after a misty speech.
Pastry: "He's so shrunk into inches, how can we chase it!?" β
Syllable!
Inexplicably, he has climbed onto the neck of the blue bird Xiaobei: "Can he run half as fast as the blue bird?" Xiaobei, catch up with me and fuck him! β
Xiaobei shook his head: "No, he is a fourth-order professional of [Oath-keeping], grandpa said not to provoke this inheritance, they are very mysterious"
Inexplicably smiled evilly: "Oh? So if I lead someone to burn the bird stream tomorrow, I don't know if I'm terrible or they are terrible? β
"Becky take him!"
From behind came the voice of Shirakura.
Xiaobei also reacted, the combat power of this group of people has been seen by their birds, and they will be resurrected, but they can't be provoked
The lesser of two evils!
Xiaobei straightened up and held his head high: "It's not that I'm not afraid, the main thing is that my grandfather said that you should trust your partners, I believe you!" β
There are also a few birds ready to take off, waiting for the players to climb up.
Seeing this, he shouted inexplicably: "Why don't you come up soon?" β
The other players were stunned too!
Riben Guizi scolded: "Damn, you kid really doesn't play cards according to the routine!" β
Suddenly, more than 200 players climbed onto the backs of 10 blue birds and chased after the oracle.
Huhuhu~
When the bird's wings spread and its speed increased, there was no one to escape on land!
Sky. Suddenly it's dark!
The god who was still playing in front of him shrunk into inches slowly darkened his vision, and suddenly felt a cold air enveloping the top of his head, and the hairs on his whole body stood up!
"Not good!"
Boom Boom!
Countless lightning bolts and icy winds slashed down, and the exquisite cooperation of the players directly locked the four directions of the divine envoy, and he had nowhere to escape!
Bang!
The oracle was blown away, and after a few rolls, he stood up again with his shield in hand.
The shield was swirled with lightning, and it had just fended off a large number of attacks for him.
Even so, his clothes had been blown out of the cold wind, and a layer of frost hung on his whole body.
Inexplicably smiled: "Little brother, the gods are all virtual, what do you believe in. Triothe's? Can I help you? You have to believe in the materialist."
"God descends!"
The god made the top hat on his head glow crimson, and a wisp of purple energy came down on him from the void.
The momentum of the whole person has doubled!
Inexplicable: "Grass!" Can it really help you? Isn't this much more reliable than the god of the underworld? That's going to have to catch you! Go back and send me to the god of the underworld, teach this old boy a lesson, and see how the gods of other people's professions work! β
Lori said faintly: "Can you stop being so broken, you can quickly clean him up, the fourth order of this inheritance can really communicate with the gods, and will also summon the gods to descend from the sky." β
Inexplicably, his eyes lit up: "Then isn't this profession also able to be a summoner?" Get rid of him! I'm going to squeeze skills out of him! β
After the Divine Envoy used [Divine Descent], the whole person was more than twice as brave, but there was still a huge gap with so many players.
Players have an absolute advantage in speed and number, as well as attack strength!
After a moment's fight, the oracle shook his head and sighed:
"Even if you summon the Most High God. Nor is it your opponent, I surrender. β
Giving up all resistance, he put his shield on his head and sat down cross-legged on the spot.
He didn't even use his fourth-order talent, so he just stopped fighting.
Players have also ceased fire.
After all, they didn't really want to kill him, but wanted to get benefits from him.
Bang Bang Bang!
Inexplicably, I slapped him a few times.
"Teach you a truth, don't pretend to be forced if you don't have enough strength, take it away!"
The god made a pig's head swollen and still had no change in his face: "Violence is only the lowest means of attack. β
Nodding inexplicably. A knee hit him in the stomach, and the god couldn't hold it anymore and spat out several mouthfuls of sour water.
"You're right, but it's cool!"
After bringing it back to Dali City, Bai Yue was shocked when she saw it.
"How did you capture the reinforcements of the Human Alliance?"
Inexplicably, he said, "I remember that your Forest Patrol Array has the function of imprisoning the enemy and making him lose all energy, right?" I need to lock this person up. β
"Yes"
"I'm in trouble."
"Okay, okay."
The soldiers of the Scourge Base are the biggest reliance of Dali City at present, and without the protection of players, they can't withstand so many insect tides as the city where the human arcane shield protrudes the most!
"Patrol the ForestβBondage Tree!"
In a special garden in Dali City, a huge pink tree grew in it, and a large number of flower buds were fished, which sucked the divine envoy into it, wrapped it firmly, and wisps of energy were sucked into the big array, and he completely lost the ability to resist.
Inexplicably smiled: "Now, you need to answer our question, why did you come to provoke us today?" What a position, what an intention! Explain it all! β
Lori said faintly: "I think it's better to start with the name and gender, we don't know what his name is."
"That's right! What's your name, which god to be a licking dog? β
"You can call me a divine envoy, I just came to remind you how to purify from sin, and I didn't force you to do anything, why do you do this to me?"
Inexplicable: "Because I am willing, tell me everything you know, what ancient gods, shrines, resurrections. Start at the beginning. β
The divine envoy Chen smiled.
"Sure enough. People who have been fooled by the ancient gods never know that they have become a tool in the hands of others, because the power of resurrection is complacent and is actually a pitiful worm in this world, and your life and death are all in the thoughts of the ancient gods. β
"Do you know what happened to those who served the Old Gods for hundreds of years?"
Inexplicable: "What's wrong?" β
"Wealth, body, and soul were all absorbed by the ancient gods, and forged into shrines, exuding evil power, luring a new group of people to become slaves again."
"Huh?"
Speaking of which, players don't seem to understand it very well.
"This person doesn't seem to be talking the same thing as us, right? This is the game setting 'clone', not the kind that believes in gods, I guess this brother is wrong. β
"It's really a little wrong, but he seems to know the power of the shrine, so it's better to let him tell him about the location of the shrine he knows, and let's find it one by one."
When asked this question inexplicably, the divine envoy Chen was also a little puzzled.
"You draw evil power from the shrine, can't you sense the shrine of the world?"
"Just say you know, if you can find the shrine, I'll let you go."
Divine Envoy Chen: "We swear to regularly inspect the shrines to purify the wicked, and naturally there are shrines around the major cities of the human race, but you can't find the shrines, aren't you really believers in the ancient gods?" β
Inexplicable: "What is the Eight Ancient Gods, do you know the God of Hades?" I'm his dad. β
Divine Envoy Chen: "."
"You're talking about the former leader of the Human Alliance, the god of the underworld, right?"
"You know him?"
"Hmm"
At this point, based on the players' mental state and lack of understanding of the shrine, Divine Envoy Chen already sensed that these people might be different from the ones he was looking for.
"Hades, he. . . After the fifth order, he became a god and embarked on a path of no return, becoming a demigod and half-human creature, and the rest of his life will be sealed forever in the underworld, compared to the evil ancient gods. The harm caused is limited. β
Players are also interested at this time.
"Then you said the old gods. What the hell is it? β
After a long day of communication, the Divine Envoy Chen finally figured out that the player was not the kind of person he was looking for.
And the players also know what the old gods really are.
A kind of thing similar to evil thoughts, invisible and unknowable, once targeted by the ancient gods, they will become their slaves, do things for it, and harm the world.
Specifically why the ancient gods appeared, the god envoy Chen couldn't tell, but their oath-keepers firmly believed. Those who are tempted by the ancient gods call the extraterrestrial meteorite a shrine, and will absorb evil energy from it to evolve themselves and become all kinds of strange human beings.
Their communication with the ancient gods also took place in the shrines.
The Oath-Keepers believe in three gods known as the Three Witch Gods, and they work together to defend the world from unknown forces, and the Oath-Keeper Legacy is also determined to do so.
Many of the strange phenomena and strange creatures that appear in the world are caused by the invasion of evil forces into the world, and the Oath-Keepers have been cleaning up all kinds of weirdness within the human race.
"Oh, no wonder there are monsters everywhere in this world that can be brushed, it turns out that there is this setting."
"So. The other members of the Human Alliance defend themselves against attacks from outside enemies, while the Oath-Keepers have been defending against internal mutations. β
"You said it earlier, I wouldn't have beaten you if I said it earlier, it hurts, right? Tsk~ I'm so ruthless. β
At this time, as a veteran player, 'Hiben Keiko' suddenly thought of a strange thing in the early game.
"Do you remember the patriarch of the Marauders of the Four Mountains?"
Everyone: "??? β
Most of these players entered the game after capturing the Marauder Camp and have no memory of the early battles, only to find traces of them in old Tieba posts.
Seeing that the players all shook their heads, Riben Guizi touched his head and said, "At that time. We didn't defeat the Marauder Patriarch, it's strong! But. It seemed to go crazy, and then turned into a jellyfish full of tentacles and flew into the air and floated away. It's a little scary to think about. β
"Isn't this something weird that your Oath Bearer said it was?"
Divine Envoy Chen nodded: "Yes!" If I'm not mistaken. It must be close to the shrine, right? β
"That's right! Next to it! β
"Then it must have been seduced by the old gods, this creature will become a hidden scourge of the world, they have the property of immortality, even if you kill the flesh, it will be resurrected in another way."
The players chatted with the divine envoy Chen for a long time, and after learning about a bunch of messy things, the two sides also reconciled temporarily.
Divine envoy Chen pointed to the flower bones surrounding his body: "Since you are not an enemy, why don't you release my shackles?" β
The other players are moved and want to help him get rid of it.
"Ahem!"
He coughed twice inexplicably, and the other players looked at him.
"That. Untethering can be untied, but there's one thing you need your help with, I think the skills you used in the battle just now are pretty good, especially what is that called. God sent you, will you show me again? β
Hiben Keiko: "By the way, give me a copy of the location of the shrine, and we'll help you inspect the weird things!" I'm a person, I like to do chivalry the most in my life! β
Divine Envoy Chen looked at the evil smiles of a group of players, and always felt that something was not right.
"Are you sure. Not tainted by the Old Gods? β
