Chapter 39: The Sentinels of Light and the Twilight Brotherhood
Recently, there have been a series of incidents, the rebuilding of the Hammerstone Prison and the counting of casualties have not yet been completed, and things are busy in the Shining Light Tower.
Tyrus left the house early, but it was really inappropriate to discuss Helia's taboo in the suite.
Gendakaya invites Josh to talk to the Sentinels of Light.
However, to Josh's surprise, Ruiz, who has always been afraid of ghosts, also took the initiative to ask for help.
With the addition of the two rune mages, Zhenda Kaya, who was already extremely short of manpower, naturally would not refuse.
Going out, the group of three soon arrived at a magnificent building in Helia.
It was a huge vestibule made of marble and gold, almost as large as the Vasani Vault, with spiral staircases and cloisters.
Despite the early hours, hundreds of scholars hurried through the area with books and scrolls.
Zhendakaya knew that Josh had "amnesia", so he specially took him to visit Helia's research institute and major libraries, which were more than enough to accommodate hundreds of thousands or even millions of books.
The tireless scribe never ceases to copy and reproduce the Secret Codex, poking his quill into the ink, and then writing on the parchment, the sound of rustling makes people's hearts itch.
There are still at least 100 scribes in a library, not to mention that Hailia is far more than a library, and a considerable number of "forbidden books" are sealed in the Hammerstone Prison, and the entire Hailiya collection can be imagined.
Josh was surprised, Ryze, who was only an apprentice and unqualified to set foot in these areas in the open, was also full of surprise, and his gaze barely stayed in the same position for more than three seconds.
"I took Callista here some time ago before she left."
Zhendakaya's pace was far beyond the average person, and Josh and Ruiz had to use nearly trotting speed to keep up.
"I was curious, and I asked Callista at the time why Tyrus would take her to the island, which was not in order...... Callista told me he was a good guy. ”
"Cut, good guy? Forget it. Ruiz smacked his lips disdainfully, "He's a tyrant!" Trying to control everything about me, he won't teach me magic even though I have mastered the basics of magic! ”
Zhendakaya turned around and blinked slyly, "It's also possible that Tyrus himself won't?" ”
"Uh......" Ruiz, who was already grumbling, suddenly paused, and looked at the silent Josh beside him with some uncertainty, "This, can't it?" ”
"Master really doesn't know rune magic, I can feel it." Josh said indifferently, "But he has far more magical knowledge and principles than you and I know at this stage, isn't it?" ”
Ruiz pursed her lips in silence.
He remembered that the first time he had drawn runes and almost turned himself into a charred corpse, Tyrus had only used the Holy Stone lightly to extinguish the magic in his body......
"Hmph." Ruiz snorted as if he had not yet given up, and said no more.
Passing through the astonishing hall, the trio soon arrived at a flash door carved with an eye staring at an open book.
Josh was a little familiar with this, and compared with the vague regiment in his impression, he knew that it was the sign of the Sentinel of Light......
It's just that when placed in the palatial and luxurious Helia, such an icon seems a little insignificant.
"Originally, I was going to invite you to the Temple of Light to discuss, but since there are only four assistants in the Sentinels now, it is better for us not to go to that lifeless place."
Excitedly, Gendakaya pushed open the door, looked back at Josh and Rhyz with a smile on his face, and said, "Welcome to my workshop!" ”
Seeing the chaos inside the gate, and the complete loss of Helia's orderly scene, Josh and Ruiz were stunned.
One corner of the room was rusty, and it looked like a furnace that had been idle for a long time was littered with iron felt, strange tools, and miscellaneous items, while the other shelves were lined with unnamed arcane instruments with a faint smell of runes.
Filled with different colors, some with a shimmering glow, it is obvious that bottles and cans are scattered everywhere, and bookshelves, tables, and even weapon racks are hoarded with books and scrolls of varying sizes, small and small, and weapons shelves are full of open notes and manuscripts, on which some designs in the shape of "modern firearms" are drawn.
Swords, axes, spears, daggers, bows, and many other weapons that looked like white sacred stones were almost completely covered in the mess of paper.
Without giving Josh and Ryze a chance to sigh, Zhendakaya jumped into the room like a little girl, and soon found two assistants, a man and a woman, out of nowhere.
The male assistant was a burly man, wearing a thick leather apron and his bare arms covered with burn-like scars.
In comparison, the image of the female assistant is even more exaggerated, she has shaved her head directly, and she is even a head taller than Josh, but she is so tall that she does not look strong, but has a nerdy temperament.
"Dada! These are my two lovely assistants – Piot and Ayira! ”
"Good morning!" Ayla greeted Josh and Reze in Ancient Acacia.
Josh's face was calm, not surprised.
And Ruiz looked shocked: "You...... How do you ......"
Zhendakaya blinked his left eye at Ruiz, and said with full vitality: "To learn magic, ancient Shurima and ancient Acacia are compulsory courses~~ Elementary school apprentices." ”
As he was talking, Zhendakaya, who suddenly seemed to think of something, looked around, raised his eyebrows in confusion, and said in a long tone: "Eh- what about our guests?" ”
"Are you talking about the monk who visited last night?" "He, he thought we were too noisy in the morning, and said he wanted to go out and clean up." ”
Piot returned to his workbench, fiddling with two slender holy stones, trying to weld them together with gold wire and magic, and said without looking up, "I should be back now." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the door of the workshop make another move, and a small, muscular man in a black hooded robe, holding what looked like a staff but more like a shovel stepped into the room.
It may be that the cool breeze from the hallway penetrates into the workshop, or it seems to be the illusion of a man's cold temperament, and everyone, including Josh, feels that the temperature of the room has dropped suddenly.
The hood obscured the man's face, but a bottle of clear, glowing liquid hung from his neck, leaving Josh and Rhyz stunned.
The water of life......
At the same time, Lunicia said with interest: "Interesting, interesting...... Another talented person, your Fuguang Island is really full of talents. 】
As if sensing Josh and Ryze's gaze, the man hesitated for a moment, reached out and stuffed the bottle he used as a pendant back into his robe, and then raised his head, revealing a slightly pale face, but with angular features and a gloomy expression.
Zhendakaya slipped up to the black-robed monk, reached out and slapped his naked strong biceps twice, and introduced with a smile:
"This is a monk of the Twilight Brotherhood on the mountain, his name is Yorick, and he is one of the assistants I specifically applied to Archbishop Malgusa!"
