Chapter 6: Escaping the Dead
Deep in the depths of the abyss, a half-abandoned building complex.
Several gray-robed figures flickered from high to low in the distant mountain stream, and soon converged in the remnants.
"A miracle has been revealed, inform all our people in the sea, look for the artifact." The gray-robed man in the lead couldn't hide his excitement in his tone.
"However, we don't know anything about what the artifact is, how to search for it?"
"The divine revelation obtained by the temple says that the artifact is in the shape of a scroll, but it is unknown what kind of material it is made of and what its characteristics are. It is rumored that the artifact was born in the abyss deep sea, but unfortunately we were one step late and were obtained by the masters of the royal court, but our people tracked it all the way, and he did not have a chance to return to the Shanghai sea and return to the royal court. As long as we keep chasing, it's only a matter of time before we find him. β
"What if that person hid the artifact on the way to escape?"
"Remember the gods? As long as there is the blood of the gods, with the help of the induction of the gods and the artifact, we can get the artifact first. β
"But isn't the Divine Family a royal family?"
"The artifact is the gods' favor for all the sea clans, not only belonging to the royal family, the royal court is no longer the royal court more than 1,300 years ago, and the temple is the real master of the sea area."
"Act now."
"Yes."
β¦β¦
Three days passed in the blink of an eye, after which Doris and Clive chatted occasionally, but Clive's mouth was tight and he barely said any useful information, and Doris was one more person to talk to.
I just don't know what the mortal crisis that Mrs. Shirley said is?
It was impossible to destroy the Grey Robe Shell, at least after Doris knew that Clive had run so far for a Grey Shell.
Something that Clive, a noble young master, attaches so much importance to, must be a good thing.
Mrs. Shirley is afraid that if she wants Doris to destroy the gray robe, then she will be executed immediately, as for whether Dorisy will be frightened, she listened to Mrs. Shirley's words, Mrs. Shirley should be very sure, Doris's will not, but the original owner will.
The original owner believed in her adoptive mother until she died, otherwise she would not have made Doris preconceived that there was no problem with this adoptive mother.
This also shows that the memory of the original owner is not completely reliable, after all, a lot of the information stored in the mind has been artificially processed, and as time passes, the truth becomes less and less, and the subjectivity becomes more and more.
As for the little girl's pure crush, I'm afraid that no one in that family doesn't know, but the little girl simply thinks that only Nicole knows.
"Harperd, you ......"
Doris didn't expect to meet Harperd when she returned to the Forbidden Chamber.
"Listen, I don't know who you are from Occam, and you are willing to die for Occam, but for Nicole's sake, I will help you one last time, didn't you wonder why Lady Shirley was sure that you would die in seven days?
I've been inquiring about you for the past few days, and I learned that Lord Valentine doesn't want to let your life and death be decided by the trial of the gods at all, once you enter the world of gray robes, your body will be in an unprotected state, which is why the noble young master wants to use the place of the temple to enter the trial of the gods.
As soon as you enter the God's Trial, Valentine's henchmen will take your life with their own hands, and he deliberately leaves the temple for several days in a row to avoid suspicion.
Your time is running out, if you want to live, get out of the temple quickly, you have three days left. β
Harperd spoke very quickly, and when he finished speaking, he turned around and left, regardless of whether Doris remembered it or not.
Is staying a dead end?
Doris set her eyes on the green algae floating outside the temple and made up her mind.
That night, Doris seemed to be sleeping soundly, and she didn't notice that the Templars in the temple were attacked by the sudden appearance of countless seaweeds, and the whole temple seemed to come to life, full of seaweed and the Templars who destroyed the seaweed.
Several of the priest's apprentices closed the door tightly and did not dare to come out at all.
I don't know where Priest Valentine went, and he wasn't in the temple at all.
With such a big movement, Doris naturally woke up, but there was no movement next door, as if there was no one at all.
Suddenly, the door that closed Doris was pulled open by a thick green algae, and countless green algae waved and bound Doris.
Doris didn't seem to react, and was tied up.
But in my heart, I breathed a sigh of relief and won the bet.
When Doris intercepted a green algae, she found that the green algae did not really exist, but the embodiment of some kind of power, and since it was a transcendent power, it naturally had its owner.
After Doris learned about Valentine's plan from Harperd, she immediately thought of escaping the temple with the help of the power of the owner of the green algae.
With a piece of green algae that has been cut off as a symbol, although its owner cannot detect the inside of the temple, he can locate Doris and take Doris away with him through vague induction.
Chlorella dragged Doris out of the water, but fortunately it was in the water, otherwise Doris felt that she would be dragged to death if she didn't die of suffocation.
Chlorella was slashed by the Templar Knight's sword, and it shook violently, and just when Doris was worried that Chlorella would be cut off, she was suddenly pulled by several other Chlorella, and actually went straight out of the temple.
The green algae were traveling too fast, and suddenly, a white light shone on the green algae, and it grazed Doris's head and hit the green algae. The green algae broke into several knots, but the green algae was tenacious, and continued to pull Doris wrapped in rice dumplings to stay away from the temple.
Another white light flew from outside the temple, this time without the good luck of the last time, and it hit Doris, who fainted before she could react.
It was the middle-aged priest Valentine who sent out the holy light bullet, and when the knight who reacted was ready to pursue, he sighed and gave up.
"There's no need to chase it, it's a red tide."
The knights behind the middle-aged priest looked at each other, but they didn't expect that it was just a Budun Sea, which would actually attract a red tide.
"It's a pity for that kid, he would have had a chance to be a gray robe."
"Poofβare you serious? He couldn't even pass the priest assessment, and there was only a dead end to enter "Gray Robe". Becoming a sacrifice of blood sacrifice is at least possible to please the gods, and if it fails in "Gray Robe", the gods are afraid that they will not even linger a glance. β
"But he has a chance to become a gray robe, we don't know when we will be able to accumulate contributions and get the gray robe, if I have the opportunity to become a gray robe, even if I give everything, I am willing."
"Who isn't?"
"Alright, let's stop here." Valentine's face was serious, "As long as you are pious to the gods, you will be rewarded by the temple sooner or later, and I was only a knight of the temple before, so I finally got the gray robe and became the gray robe." β
This is also the reason why Valentine asked for the blood sacrifice to succeed him, and no one objected, the middle-aged priest is a gray robe, and the old priest is just Bu Dunhai who can't afford to get the gray robe, and finally became a priest with seniority, and inside the temple, he is actually not a real priest at all.
Such priests who are not officially recognized by the temple do not care whether they live or die.
It's just that he didn't expect the old priest to actually get the gray robe, but unfortunately, he didn't have the courage to enter the "Gray Robe", otherwise, as long as the old priest became a gray robe, how could he become a sacrifice for blood sacrifice.
"Yes, Priest Valentine." The knights were scrappy, as if they could see themselves becoming the next Valentine priests.
Grey-robed shells can only be obtained by hunting sea beasts, is it not a coincidence that sea beasts attacked the Budun Sea before?
Does this old priest who has guarded the peace of Bu Dunhai for three hundred years also have selfish intentions?
No matter what his old rival wanted to do, without this Occam, everything would be in ashes.
Thinking that he finally pretended to be crooked, but actually hit Occam's operation steadily, Valentine was quite complacent, that kid, he couldn't survive.
Ordinary people who are hit by the Holy Light Bullet will surely die.
When Clive returned to the temple, he saw the busy Templars, "What's going on?" β
His mother secretly sent someone to visit, and Clive hurried to meet him.
Unexpectedly, when I just returned to the Butun Sea Temple, it looked like the scene after being attacked.
"Master Clive, it's a red tide."
"Red Tide, the organization that aims to redeem all the victims of the bloody sacrifices, the heresy dedicated to overthrowing the Temple?"
The guards don't have the confidence of Young Master Clive, the power of Red Tide in the lower sea is extremely huge, far more energetic than ordinary people think, even if the guard is the sea tribe in Shanghai, he doesn't dare to offend Red Tide easily, he can only nod hard and agree.
"Forget it, this has nothing to do with us, don't interfere. Who knows if this red tide is a pawn between the temple and the royal court. β
Theocracy and kingship, unresolved disputes.
If there is a royal court standing behind the red tide, it is not surprising that there is today's power. It's just that I don't know where the punishment knights of the temple have run away during this time, and they actually let the red tide be rampant enough to dare to come to the temple to rob people.
"Master Clive, there are still three days left before the God's Trial, so it's better to rest early and recharge your energy, so as not to disappoint Lady Carly's expectations of you."
The guard who guarded him dismissed his intention to meet Doris and went straight back to his room.
