Mukurah slowly muttered a prayer in his mouth, but his heart was anxious to call out for the blessing of the god of Sebranda.

A dark cloud slowly emerged in mid-air, and red lightning flashed and crackled in the clouds. There is a strange coercion in it, forcing people to involuntarily want to kneel down and surrender.

"Is this the power of the gods?" Dong Hezi looked at the red electric dark clouds "out of his mind", and Nannan muttered to himself: "How can you not understand the way it is combined with the power of heaven and earth?"

Mukura's face was hideous, and it was nowβ€”boom! Red thunder shot out of the clouds like arrows, flying and slashing at Donghezi!

The dark clouds sent out a beam of red light to shine on Mukura, and the divine power surged directly in his body! The silver needle was ejected from his body with a "swish, swish", and his whole body burst out! Mukula laughed and got up and flew, ready to break the chains and flee from here.

Dong Hezi met the red electricity with the wooden stick in his hand, and when the two were handed over, the wooden stick became red and transparent like glass, and it was almost cracked. Dong Hezi hurriedly poked the wooden stick to the ground, and the power of red lightning involuntarily led to the ground.

Then he made a decision.

Mukula, who was about to break free of the chains, suddenly became paralyzed, lost even the strength to raise his hand, and the next moment he was suddenly dizzy and almost fainted. The supernatural force that was unleashed suddenly disintegrated, and he fell into the air again.

"What's going on?" he was unwilling, but could only make an extremely weak voice. His consciousness quickly dissipated, and he soon passed out with a black face. The dark clouds, which had lost their will, quickly dissipated, and the sky was clear again.

Dong Hezi laughed secretly in his heart: Of course you don't know. I poisoned the water for you to drink, but after the poisoning, I used the method of burning talismans to temporarily suppress the poison. As long as I cast a spell to suppress it, I will immediately attack my heart! Hmph, you pretend to be B? This time pretend to be a stupid B!

He leaned down and pressed Mukurah's chest, activating the spell again to suppress the poison - he really couldn't let him die until he dug up all the secrets of this guy.

Tohoko and Lelin take the unconscious Mukula to the town's warrior training ground and find Tivedes and Grimm.

"I'm going to spend twenty or thirty days studying some secret arts, and I'm going to stay in the stone castle for a single step. So this guy is not safe with me, and I would like to ask you to keep him in the deepest dungeon. ”

"What if he wakes up?" said Grimm, trepided, "this brute has great supernatural powers, and is not an ordinary cell to live in. Or if we take the ransom and let them go, that's 30,000 gold coins! That's enough for an average apprentice to learn the third-order arcane. ”

Dong Hezi had no choice but to say, "If we let him go, he will come back to us immediately to take revenge." This kind of bandit does not talk about faith and kindness. Don't worry, I have a medicine here, as long as you give him a pack every day, I guarantee that he won't be able to use any magical powers!"

He continued, "This guy doesn't really have any powerful spells, just a few supernatural powers. And this medicine specifically restrained his supernatural powers. Moreover, there is a powerful debilitating medicine in it, which only takes a few days will make people thin and thin, weak and weak, and they don't even have the strength to walk! When the time comes, you don't have to give him food, just give him some water to save his life, and then put my medicine in the water, so that he won't drink it!"

Grimm was still very worried, and said with a sad face: "What if there is an accident and let him run away?" I mean what if~~ You see, there is always a case for everything. ”

Dong Hezi laughed secretly in his heart - why didn't you mention "what if" when you thought of the ransom, and when you ran out of money, you came "just in case"?

So he took out a rune and handed it to Grimm and said, "If there is an emergency, you will burn this rune, and I will naturally come out to solve the problem." But remember, you must keep him in the dungeon!

"Don't worry, we have several dungeons deeper than cellars!" Grimm relieved himself of the promise of the Great Druid, and ordered the soldiers to lock Mukula with steel chains, and then throw him into the strongest dungeon to guard it closely.

On the way back to the mountainside stone fort.

"You're going to go to the third floor again and stuff yourself for dozens of days?" asked Le Lin, her big beautiful eyes full of doubt.

Dong Hezi couldn't laugh or cry a little: "Why is it boring? I'm just going to study secret arts." ”

Le Lin's eyes widened, and she laughed, "Then why don't you eat or drink as soon as you go in?"

"It's a bit similar. Dong Hezi said leisurely, seeing Le Lin's surprised appearance, he said slowly: "My so-called research often has to enter a state of high concentration and tranquility of consciousness, at this time, other functions of the body are minimized, and even the pulse becomes very slow, which is indeed very similar to hibernation. It's just that hibernation is a mess, and I'm in a state of unusually clear and sharp consciousness. This state is called "concentration". This time I learned some of the skills of that mukula, so I'm going to go into the state and study it carefully. ”

Le Lin was even more puzzled: "Haven't you learned all his skills? What else do you need to study? Besides, there is no need to be in such a hurry." It's not too late to look into the matter of Mukura once and for all. ”

Dong Hezi smiled: "His skills have been learned, but my own skills still need to be studied." Seeing that Le Lin was completely confused, he explained: "Our secret druid has a class of secret arts related to wind and thunder, although I have been in contact with it before, but I am not good at it. This Mukula technique has inspired me a lot, and maybe it will lead me to a breakthrough in this secret art. You don't know, once I make a breakthrough in this area, it will be very helpful for my future progress! ”

"I'm a little worried. Le Lin said uneasily: "You will be in for dozens of days, what if during this time, those believers of the god of Se Branding come to take revenge? Or something else, such as what if Grimm let Mukula go? I always feel that he is too obsessed with money to withstand the temptation of Mukula's ransom." It's better to keep Mukula on our side. She slowed down and pulled Dong Hezi and said, "Why don't we get him back again?" ”

Dong Hezi smiled disapprovingly and said, "We don't have a suitable room there to hold him." Besides, although Grimm has no social experience, he is not so ignorant. You're too careful. ”

Four days later.

The dungeon's steel doors were slowly opened, making a loud creak through the enclosed underground, waking up the sleeping Mukula.

He lay on the straw pile in disarray, and his eyelids were weakly opened. For days, nothing but water had penetrated his stomach. Now he really doesn't even have the strength to raise his hand!

This doesn't make sense!

Ever since he was chosen as the Stormbringer by the god of Sebranda, his body has changed drastically! He used to eat snow for two weeks to keep his enemies alive, and he still had enough body to kill them! Now he has not eaten for a week, and he is as weak as an old farmer lying in bed waiting to die, how is this possible?

To make matters worse and stranger, he was unable to use his supernatural powersβ€”unable to summon storms, unable to fly in the wind, unable to wield thunder weapons and electric storm weapons, which were normally used at will, as simple as lifting one's own legs.

It must have been the druid, he thought with hatred.

But there is no way to vent it except to let the resentment gnaw at one's own heart. Although there are still several magic spells that can be used, such as the Flame Strike Technique, it is impossible to burn the steel prison door. Even if you open the prison door, you don't even have the strength to get out!

Perhaps when you go outside, you can pray that the light of the god Sebranda will shine on you again and restore your strength. But this is also a luxury for him who has lost the strength of his limbs. What's more, even if he walked out, the god of Sebranda might not give it to him! He had already caused the displeasure of the gods after two consecutive failures. He could now feel the indifference shown by the gods in his soul to him, maybe after going out, the gods would not only not reward a beam of red light to save him, but would tear down the angry thunder and lightning flames and split himself half to death!

Alas~~ He sighed and waited quietly for his fate: "Whether it is salvation or punishment, you are my god, and my soul will always belong to the supreme you!"

The faint candlelight shrouded in from the outside, and a boy in a mage robe, accompanied by two large soldiers, walked in cautiously, looking a little afraid of a sudden attack.

Mukula laughed secretly, the nobles are so afraid of death!

He already knew from the casual chatter of the soldiers outside the cell that the only mage here was the Baron's nephew, Grimm, who was also the acting lord here. He suddenly found here, could it be ~~

"You're in good shape. The little mage covered his nose to block the rancid smell of the dungeon, and laughed, "I heard that you are the most powerful robber within a radius of several hundred miles, and someone has paid 30,000 gold coins for your head." ”

Mukula smiled.

A little mage who urgently needs a lot of money to be a tuition,

The little mage who urgently needs to upgrade the level and climb the high position,

Are you hinting at me?

He tried to raise his weak voice, deliberately provoking Grimm: "They look down on me too much, my head is worth at least 50,000 gold coins! But don't think about it, the one who defeated me is the druid, and he can sell me to those disgusting nobles at any time." And you can wag your tail and beg him for a few gold coins. Hahahaha"

Grimm glared at him fiercely, but for the sake of the gold and tuition, he tried his best to suppress his anger and said, "That druid is mine, well, my retainer. Now I have the right to do anything to you!think for yourself how to die comfortably," he said in a gloomy voice, "and then sue me when you think about it, and I will satisfy you." ”

Mukula lay on the ground and smiled hard, and after a while, he said, "Little mage, what I hate most is your nobles' roundabout style of speaking. I have only one word for you - 50,000 gold coins! After finishing speaking, he closed his eyes expressionlessly, as if he had passed out again.

Grimm's eyes moved in annoyance, and he wanted to scam him and raise the ransom. I didn't expect to be seen through by this guy all of a sudden. Now I can't go back and forth. However, Mukula's bounty was 30,000, and now it has 20,000 more. If he gave the 30,000 to Master Dong Hezi and kept the remaining 20,000 to himself, he shouldn't mind too much. He himself said that money was not important to him. But it's very important to yourself!20,000 gold coins!If you're lucky, you can even support yourself to learn Tier 4 Arcane!

After a long time, Grimm spoke: "I can't believe your words, if I let you go, I can't guarantee that you won't retaliate against me in return." Maybe as soon as I release you, your men will attack here?"

Both remained silent.

After a long time, Grimm gave up hope, and the equipment turned and left.

As soon as he stepped out of the prison door, Mukula suddenly spoke: "If you are willing to let me go, I will not only promise to give you 50,000 gold coins, but I will swear to the god Sebranda that I will never take revenge on your territory." Because my real enemy is that druid. ”

Grimm froze in the doorway, his legs trembling slightly from excitement and uneasiness.

I don't know how long it took, but he replied, "Yes, tell me, where are your people?" I will let my men bring letters, and then ask your men to bring money to ransom you. ”

Mukula shook his head with difficulty and said, "No, our people won't come. What if you suddenly repent, and use me as bait to unite with the other nobles to hunt us down? Take me to the city of Lilux, where we will trade. ”

"Good. Grimm agreed, "So where are you? You can sue me, right?" I want to do my best to complete the deal. ”

Mukula snorted twice and said, "You don't need to know, you just need to take me to Lirux City, and as for my people, the god of Sebranda will pass the news on to them." ”

Grimm hurried back to his room and pulled out two valuable scrolls from the depths of a large wooden box - a portal scroll and a scroll of an unknown prophecy spell that was said to provide good advice for an operation.

He stroked the two expensive scrolls, feeling the aura of powerful spells coming from them, and silently thought, "If necessary, you can use this prophecy scroll to decide your next move." Even if they try to lie to me, it won't be easy!" he thought to himself, "Even if it's not good." I can also use the portal scroll to escape easily. ”

"And if I succeed, I will be able to learn higher arcane and become a full-fledged mage as soon as possible, hahahahahaha~~" He couldn't help laughing, the joy of becoming a mage is simply cooler than conquering a woman!

With his mind made up, he left the small castle and hurried to the warrior training ground to order three carriages to be prepared. One was loaded with Mukura who was held in a wooden cage, and the other two express trucks were used to load gold coins. He also singled out more than thirty able-bodied soldiers to accompany him.

Just as he was about to leave, Tivedes got the news out of nowhere and rushed to intercept him.

Breathlessly, he stopped Grimm's horse and persuaded him, "You can't take him away! This guy and his gods are both cautious and cautious! Maybe they'll do it on your way back!, I think it's better to hand him over to the Earl's sheriff for 30,000 gold coins. And he was caught by Master Donghezi, no matter what we want to do with him, we must discuss it with the master. ”

"No!" said Grimm categorically, "if we hand him over to the Earl Sheriff, we will not get 30,000 gold coins, for I have long heard of their greed, shamelessness, and trustlessness! The power to issue the bounty is in their hands, and it would be a great luck for us to get 20,000 if we were to be withheld in this way! I would not be so stupid! And the stormbringer had sworn to his gods that he would not take revenge on our territory. You don't have to worry anymore. ”

"But what about Master Donghezi?" Tivedes grabbed the reins very anxiously and said, "We're just holding him in place." If he finishes studying the secret arts, how about going down the mountain to find us people? And even if we get the ransom, it should be handed over to Master Donghezi! After all, he caught people. Why should we take the risk on his behalf?"

"Needless to say!" Grimm looked at the bearded middle-aged man in front of him with some annoyance, and suddenly felt that the wrinkles on his face were as unpleasant as his wordiness: "Master Donghezi caught Mukula, he deserves 3 gold coins, and the rest belongs to us." I'll give you a share of the money. ”

Tivedus continued, "Then we should consult with the baron as well. ”

Grimm angrily pulled his hand away and shouted, "Now Uncle needs quiet recuperation, and I am authorized to manage this territory and the people in it. I now order you to make sure no one bothers him until I return!

Tivedus froze there as he watched Grimm and them quickly leave.

The spring breeze gently blows through this desolate land, and finally calls for a little green dotted among the gray and black rocky hills.

Palik rode on a tall, athletic horse and looked out over the town of Harmonville, at the foot of the hill, where his uncle's castle was located.

"O Holy Eternal Lord!" he prayed in a low voice, "You are the only Lord of the universe, and you are the Ruler of the destiny of all things. As your faithful servant, I will protect your lamb from evil spirits from here, and I will spread your glory to all the earth. Our Lord willing. ”

But his good mood didn't last long, and outside the town he saw a slightly humanoid bust statue, which, judging by the aura emanating from it, belonged to the god of the water element.

"Damn the evil gods!" he cursed, "damn idols! Didn't you say that this is still a desert of faith? Why did someone suddenly intervene first? O Holy Eternal Lord! Curse them, let all those who spread the idols of evil gods die of plague and calamity! Let those diehard believers of evil gods fall into purgatory after death and receive the eternal punishment of the flame you have bestowed upon them! Eternal punishment! Forever! Forever!

He rode into the town with a curse.

People looked with curiosity and envy at his richly carved dark gold armor, his elaborate blue saddle, his black cloak and bridle decorated with colored stripes, the dense silver prayers on his scarlet horse hoods, and the colorful gemstone rings on his four fingers. And, of course, the most conspicuous of all, the heavy warhammer of swar, black! The body of the hammer of deep darkness was reflecting bright sunlight, as if it was a dazzling light from the darkness, and it seemed like endless black completely repelled the light, and it did not let it in at allβ€”but in any case, this outfit was twenty times more magnificent than that of the baron!

Palik was very pleased with their expressions: Look, look, you hillbillies. The more closely I look, the better, and the more envious I see, so that I can more easily let the glory of the Lord of Eternity envelop here. Hahahaha, poor lambs, servants of the one true God have come here, and you are about to receive eternal salvation!

Inside the baron's room.

"Uncle!" Palik smiled and hugged the frail old baron, the cold dark gold armor that made the baron uncomfortable. But he was still excited. The mood that had changed because Grimm had taken the stormbringer without permission became alive again.

"I haven't seen you for so many years, where have you been?" said the old baron, patting Palik's broad and powerful shoulder, "I thought you were no longer in the world! Now he had forgotten about the unsuccessful Grimm, and just wanted to know what kind of experience this good man in front of him had had.

"This is all by the grace of the Lord!" Parik said in a firm tone, "I was forced to join the rebel group of Duke Diguyasi when they attacked the city of Nonu. Thankfully, I was inspired by the Lord to give me the opportunity to escape halfway through. After that, I became a full-fledged priest and I have been converted to the Most Holy and One Eternal Lord, and now I am a full-fledged priest, and the Lord has given me the 4th Order Divine Skill to spread His glory and prestige throughout the earth. ”

"Oh, that's good, that's good. The old baron said happily: "Now our family finally has a talented person." He had long heard that this self-proclaimed "Lord of Eternity" was a deity who appeared on the eve of the fall of Duke Diguyasi. It is only more than 20 years old, but his church has grown rapidly, especially in some poor places. However, he had also heard that this deity was very xenophobic, calling other qiΔ“ deities collectively "evil gods" or "demons" and rejecting or even expelling them, regardless of whether they were good or evil, orderly or chaotic. Therefore, he is a rather domineering deity.

However, this deity has great divine power, so many gods and goddesses can only dare to be angry but dare not speak. This makes them expand their power more and more recklessly. In some areas, they even began to interfere with the will and power of the nobility and the king!

The old baron's belief in Arec, the god of war, was of course called an "evil god" by the church, and there were even pamphlets that were distributed in the army denigrating the god Arec. This caused a backlash from the Church of Ariq, and the news was passed on to their powerful and well-connected believers, reminding them of the Church of the "Eternal Lord" and providing important information at any time.

Speaking of which, the two of them are quite opposed, but the churches of the two gods have not yet completely torn their faces, and a priest who has obtained a fourth-order divine skill is no worse than his own baron in the wilderness. The annual income is even higher than that of oneself! From the perspective of family interests, this is certainly something to celebrate.

The old baron immediately asked the butler to prepare a sumptuous lunch to entertain him, and specifically instructed the cook not to be stingy with the spices given by Master Donghezi, and to put as much as he wanted. He also took out the precious wine that he had treasured for more than ten years to entertain him to express his happiness and condolences
