Chapter 40 Priests

But among the crooked corpses, there was still a person, a man with a very dignified appearance.

He was of medium stature, his thick body stood like a steel tower, his bright red priestly robes were floating with holy light, and even his bright bald head seemed to be emitting a strong holy light! He had a strikingly thick beard on his lips, and in his right hand he held a short, thick scepter, the head of which was embedded with a valuable white crystal, which was slowly radiating the brilliance of holy power

Even if he didn't recognize the iconic red thick short beard, just looking at the rich brilliance of divine power, Richard immediately knew the identity of the man in front of him, he was the presiding priest of this temple, Essin!

All of the clergy involved in the ritual died under Richard's fireball technique, and Essien was unscathed by the powerful divine powers, but his reaction was clearly just enough to protect himself and not have time to benefit his colleagues.

Essien glared at Richard, raised his scepter and pointed at Richard, and shouted angrily: "Devil of the Otherworld, your greed and audacity will bring you endless pain......

Esin's first word was as loud as thunder, and before he could finish a sentence, his voice was as loud as if there were thousands of people shouting in unison, and the whole temple resonated with his voice!

An indescribable feeling of fear floated in Richard's heart, and the quicksand behind him suddenly screamed: "Don't let him finish!

The splash dodged away from one of the Templars and pounced on Priest Essin, but Richard yelled, "Splash!

A fireball flew out of Richard's hands and shot towards Essien's left rear. The fireball landed, but it didn't explode immediately, but kept spinning, and the ruining energy was bound by the magic power in the flickering fireball, becoming more and more violent.

It's a time-lapse fireball again!

Esin's pupils shrank, but he didn't move, the anger in his mouth never stopped, and the divine power that had been hidden in the entire temple for many years was being attracted by his voice little by little, constantly converging in front of the scepter. As a result, the white crystal also began to bloom with milky white light, becoming more and more intense, like a thunderbolt that was about to explode.

With a whew, another fireball flew out and landed on the right rear of Essien, still not exploding!

Just a second later, a third fireball shot out of Richard's hand! this time it was no longer a time-lapse fireball, and it landed right in front of Essien. The three fireballs landed on a perfect triangle, and Essien stood right in the middle of the triangle!

Essien's fiery red eyebrows almost stood up, his heart seemed to stop beating, and his wide open mouth was long gone. All of them were completely submerged, and it seemed that the entire hall was only filled with the sound of those few balls of magical energy swirling endlessly.

Rumble!

The three waves of fire erupted almost at the same time, and the blazing wind suddenly swept through the temple, and the two Templars who were close to each other were directly swept away by the impact of the fire waves, and even the robes of Master Richard standing at the door of the temple were blown close to their bodies. Richard gritted his teeth and endured the dizziness caused by the instant pouring out most of his magic power, and the fourth fireball formed between his hands again, and then flew out with a roar!

In the center of the fire wave, a thick and bright pillar of divine power suddenly erupted, and the pillar of light immediately exploded, extinguishing all the fire waves.

When the flames and divine light dissipated slightly, Esin stood majestically in front of the altar, holding up the scepter, although the divine light around him was gone, but the majesty of the moment was like a god of courage descending on the earth!

But when the priest stared at the devil on the heterotopic plane with a pair of angry eyes, the pupils showed that a fireball was spinning and flying, getting bigger and bigger, until it took over the entire field of vision!

Boom! Another wave of fire exploded, and only a roar came from behind the wave of fire: "I curse you!!" only to see Esin's body fly up in the air, slamming into the idol of the god of courage that was tilting again!

With a deafening roar, the statue of Nei'an, the god of courage, slowly collapsed. In the dust and rubble, Priest Essin's body suddenly flashed several divine rays of light in succession, and then he jumped to his feet, quickly rushed out of the back door of the temple, and disappeared into the night.

Richard was stunned for a moment, and could only watch Essien escape, and finally had a new understanding of the powerful life-saving methods of the senior priests. After firing six fireballs in a row, Richard was almost out of strength and could no longer pursue.

After Essien fled, the six Templar Knights below rank 8 were no longer opponents, and they were all knocked down one by one in the blink of an eye. Some of the injuries of Gangde and others were also treated by the magic of quicksand. It's just that although the fluctuations of the temple's divine power have slowly subsided, the quicksand is still suppressed very strongly, and at most it can only release ordinary healing techniques. If it weren't for the bonus of time in her hands, I'm afraid she wouldn't even be able to use it to treat minor injuries.

Without waiting for Richard's orders, Shui Hua and the others searched for the remnants of the enemy on their own, and wiped out more than a dozen subordinates in the blink of an eye. Instead of stopping, they rushed out of the back door of the temple and flanked the Templar garrison, which had not yet resolved the battle. Richard remained alone in the temple, waiting for the discomfort of the mana overdraft to recover a little, and then dragged his long knife towards the Templar station. Although he has no magic power, Richard has combat power with a knife in his hand. And after Splash and Gangde searched once, it was impossible for anything to slip through the net in the temple.

The most time they spend in death camp is pulling their prey out of hiding.

As Richard walked towards the back of the temple, the flying smoke and dust finally dropped slightly. A flash of light from the altar suddenly caught Richard's attention. After the idol tilted and collapsed, a pile of fragments pressed against the altar, almost burying the altar where the sacrifice was made. What shimmered was a corner of paper peeking out from under the rubble.

Richard's heart moved, and he walked over to brush away the rubble and muck, revealing what was pressed underneath. Originally, a complex magic array was arranged on the altar, but it had been completely destroyed under the constant bombardment of the fireball technique, and it had completely ceased to function. Richard looked at the unfamiliar symbols and lines, this magic array was not in his knowledge structure, and what attracted his attention more at this time was that in the center of the magic array, there was an unusually large piece of paper of unknown material. It is straight and neat on three sides, but one side is a little uneven, like a page torn from a certain book, but the surface is blank.

Under the bombardment of six fireballs in a row, even the idol of the god of courage had collapsed, but the page was unscathed.
