The status of the priest in the merfolk clan is very high, and it is not high in the ordinary sense, but a special transcendent high, which is completely different from the secular power system.

This is also the reason why Lao Sa doesn't dare to be presumptuous, if it's just the second generation of mermaids like Dorothy, with Lao Sa's cheekiness, it's really not very frightening, after all, Dorothy herself is known for being good at dealing with humans, and it's nothing to joke.

But even if he lent Lao Sa a hundred bear-hearted leopard galls, he didn't dare to joke on topics related to mermaid priests, and that would be considered blasphemy by the mermaid clan, and he would be imprisoned at best, and at worst he would be sacrificed to his soul!

Speaking of this "soul sacrifice", it is also a well-known horror here, according to the mermaid clan, that is, to use the soul of the sacrifice to worship the god of the sea.

The specific method is not clear, because no human has ever been allowed to witness the process of sacrifice, and all humans who can participate are sacrifices, and the end will definitely be a dead end, and naturally there is no way to describe it to outsiders.

I only know that this kind of sacrifice is an extremely painful way to die for sacrifices, and anyway, the mermaid clan's own people are all talking about it.

Chen Mu wasn't too scared, he felt that since the local mermaid priest invited him to meet, he must have something to ask, otherwise, if he just wanted to please himself, then there was no need to be so troublesome at all, just tie up the five flowers directly.

On the way, he thought about it and asked Dorothy tentatively, "I wonder why the priest summoned me?"

Dorothy shook her head: "I'm sorry, I don't know about this, and we don't want to ask about the priest's affairs, but it shouldn't be a bad thing, otherwise it will be the temple warrior who comes to you." ”

After finishing speaking, there was nothing to say all the way, and Dorothy seemed to be a little surprised why the priest would directly ask Chen Mu by name, but it was inconvenient to ask more, so she simply didn't talk to Chen Mu too much, and only briefly reminded him of the things to pay attention to after going to the temple.

In fact, there are not too many taboos, the main thing is the word "quiet", saying that all noise is forbidden in the temple, and if it is serious, it will even be directly killed by the temple warriors, and the rest is to obey the orders of the priest.

Chen Mu just left the area where humans gathered, and took the monkey into the area inhabited by mermaids, of course, he needed to activate the "Water Bead".

However, according to Lao Sa, there is no big problem if it is not activated, because the external seawater pressure is resisted by the shield outside the city, so the only trouble in the mermaid area in the city is that humans can't breathe in the water.

But for an innate martial artist like Chen Mu, internal circulation is not a difficult thing, and he can stay in the water casually for three or five days.

Of course, the merfolk are more adapted to this kind of underwater life, they have gills behind their ears, they can breathe freely underwater, and they can emit ultrasound waves, so it is not a problem to communicate.

It goes through three areas and finally comes to the east of the city, where there is a separate area, small in size, but only one building, which seems a little empty.

This building is also different from other mermaid buildings, most of the other buildings are relatively round, whether they are made of shells or coral reefs, the shape is sleek and moist.

This building is spire-shaped, although the details are still round, but that is because the building materials are shells, pearls and other relatively round things, and these things are used to build this minaret-like building.

The bottom of the minaret is very wide, far larger than those Gothic buildings that Chen Mu has seen, but the height is much shorter, so it looks a bit like an erected croissant, in short, it makes Chen Mu feel a little weird, maybe it is because the aesthetics of the mermaid clan are different.

"Okay, this is the temple, I can only send you here, and you can go there yourself, and there will be a temple warrior to receive you. ”

Dorothy said goodbye to Chen Mu politely, and after speaking, she bowed her head and left backwards, she was not so respectful to Chen Mu, but to the temple in front of her, it seemed that turning her back to the temple was a blasphemous act.

Seeing the other party's attitude, Chen Mu didn't dare to hold it up, and hurriedly bowed his head slightly in the direction of the temple, and at the same time told the monkey not to mess around, and then walked quickly forward.

Sure enough, when they arrived at the plaza at the bottom of the temple, two temple warriors, a man and a woman, swam out of it, very different from mermaid warriors like Dorothy.

The temple warriors did not wear any armor, not even clothes, they were naked, and the key parts were mosaiced with seaweed.

And unlike other mermaids, they have large scales on their bodies, especially their faces, which are almost entirely covered in pale cyan scales.

The most striking thing is not the scales, but their hair, which looks like a small snake or seaweed, writhing in the water, making people panic at the sight.

This is also the biggest appearance characteristic of the temple warriors, normal mermaids like Dorothy, the body surface is rarely covered with scales, and the hair is also human, in short, their upper body is almost the same as that of humans.

And these temple warriors are said to have been in normal mermaid form at first, but after entering the temple, they have undergone ritual transformation, or they have accepted the blessing of the sea god, and they have become like this.

Both of them held a long trident in their hands, which was the most common weapon shape of the mermaid clan, and Dorothy had also taken it before, but the trident also had many differences, such as size, length, hardness, color, etc.

The tridents used by the temple warriors are naturally different, not because of the style or anything, but because their tridents are said to have been blessed by the divine power of the sea god and belong to special "divine weapons".

Only the temple warriors were able to use such a trident, and it is worth mentioning that the only equipment of the temple warriors, that is, this kind of trident, was one per person.

But the appearance of the trident is also strange, such as the trident of the two temple warriors in front of him, which is not the same.

The trident in the man's hand is a very large black one, and the material looks like it is polished from some kind of iron ore, which looks particularly rough, and it feels like a shoddy big dung fork, which is ugly to death.

The one in the woman's hand is much better-looking, half a person high, it seems to be some kind of natural jade, crystal clear and emitting a little white light, and there are many pearls on it.

But whether it's ugly or good-looking, these two tridents have a striking blue emblem on them, which is printed at the intersection of the trident's three roads.

This emblem is also on the top of the temple in front of you, which should be the legendary "Poseidon Emblem", which is the symbol of the god of the sea.

It's just that no matter how Chen Mu looks at it, he feels that this thing is like an abstract blue vortex, and there is no particularly sacred rush.
