Shadow Covenant

Before the Spirit of Nature finished speaking, a sound of tearing the air suddenly burst out in the square. It was sharp and piercing, deafening. , the entire plane began to shake in an instant, and the flickering singularities in the sky flickered, as if a piece of the original cornerstone was missing, and a large area of ​​cracks spread continuously on the ground of the square and the walls of the surrounding buildings. , like lightning bolts traveling through the walls and soil.

This magical accompanying plane located in Jingsong Forest, the temple area that has stood for thousands of years and has not been affected, is like fine porcelain under this terrible impact, and cracks have already appeared.

As soon as the sound came out, unless the group of guards and priests in the temple closed their five senses, even a deaf person should feel the overwhelm from the earth, the kind that could open a hole anytime, anywhere and swallow people The feeling of going down is maddening enough.

Woody didn't know how the Golden River Valley shut down the external fog in the previous life, nor how the first team of players who entered this dungeon managed to escape unscathed. When it is eliminated in the mouth.

"how so!"

The first to be shocked and puzzled was naturally the spirit of nature. He restrained his puzzled expression and the slight trembling of his fingers, he said in horror.

"There is a problem in Cohen's memory. It's not as silent as he said when it was lifted. The person who told him the method must have tampered with it! Now leave quickly! Before they react."

His words were so swearing earlier that they couldn't help but be convincing.

The others were also amazed by the strangeness after the fog was lifted, they looked at each other in blank dismay, and had no idea for a moment.

Woody glanced at the Spirit of Nature, then nodded in agreement without saying anything.

"That's right, get out of here quickly."

Cecil also said quickly.

"At least 30 fully armed divine guards have appeared in the four areas, and they are coming towards us!"

"If we act now, we have to break out from the southeast, otherwise, we may collide with them."

"Don't worry, calm down."

Woody comforted the slightly sensitive Cecil, and he said patiently.

"If you were the owner of this place, what would you do if you knew that outsiders had invaded and violated the core area of ​​this place?"

Reverse thinking is always the only way to solve problems. This advice made Cecil, who was originally not low in intelligence, immediately realize the meaning he wanted to express.

"You mean?"

"That's right, the southeast direction may be a trap. Let's set off towards the north, and go back as we came. It is the most correct way to leave here as quickly as possible."

"And the longer it is delayed, let them know that we are entering from the north, the more defensive forces stationed there may be. If you are unlucky, maybe your priest will wait for us there personally. .”

When Woody said the last sentence, he looked at Rhea beside Kaverman.

Ruiya was also a little panicked at this time, and when she saw Woody looking at her, she subconsciously blurted out.

"I don't know what's going on, how could this happen, there has never been such a big movement in the Chongsheng District before."

"I know, I trust you, you will not harm us."

Woody knew that she would be wrong, but he also took the opportunity to say the tentative words he had prepared. He had a deep analysis of this dead female aborigine in the previous actions of Ruiya and the later forums. At that time, there was a A lot of plot parties have determined that Ruiya's death may be related to the person behind her, or the demigod.

If there is no demigod's instigation, an ordinary god servant who can no longer be ordinary, just because he was blessed by the elder of the local wood elf ancient tree at birth, can enter the temple of the Feathered Serpent God to serve the god's daily life and daily life, where does it come from? The courageous area asks for help from the outside world and strangers.

Sure enough, Woody's earnest "you" immediately made Ruiya, who was about to be moved, froze in place. She didn't know what to say for a while, but when everyone started to leave towards the north, Ruiya suddenly made a voice in Woody's heart.

"Outsider, do you know of my existence?"

Although it was Ruiya's voice, this voice was majestic and sacred, making people unable to help but resound the echoes from the vast forest under the mountains in the barbaric period.

Woody understood that this was hooking up with the real master.

"Praise the God of the forest, your glory has already bloomed on this land, even though you have retreated behind the scenes, even time cannot wash away the proof of your existence."

Facing the demigod, Woody naturally did not answer in a flat manner, but replied in an extremely respectful manner, Feathered Serpent God is not a god in the true sense, it is just a natural birth , a relatively powerful creature, but under the support of the weak, it gradually enlightened its wisdom and mind, and gained the power of faith. With its long lifespan like a giant dragon, it gradually stepped onto the altar.

And for this kind of god, the attitude must be quite in place.

For example, for those who are in a hurry, you beat around the bush or hint heavily, meaning that such words will only make the other party's disgust and resistance increase over time, while more straightforward answers will be loved by him.

And like the Feathered Serpent God, in the last forum "Things I Have to Talk to the Hundred Gods" focused on the Feathered Serpent God that appeared in Asenland as an example to explain to you the revival of these ancient gods that yearn for faith What should I do when.

That is coaxing.

On the one hand, he expresses his admiration for Him as if facing a high mountain, which is daunting. On the other hand, he expresses that he is weak, and it is really powerless to share His worries.

For the gods, as long as they are creatures, or creatures that have not yet ignited the fire, they are all mortals, so a fighter of one professional level and a fighter of ten professional levels are actually the same to them.

But this is also normal, do humans still observe the size of ants?

Only the legend can make them take a little more seriously. After all, whether it is recruiting him to help him perform tasks related to the believers of the temple, whether it is to promote the grace of the gods, or to be a pure believer and give him far away Regardless of the amount of supernormal people's beliefs, the more the better, and in a world with a slightly larger world will, the gods will also be suppressed, just like the main material plane Terra. Soon after, the gods came in the form of saints. At the time of the plane, there are not too many gods who are suppressed and killed by mortals.

There were quite a few people who came here in the first year alone, and those who hunted and killed them were not particularly powerful legends. There was even a team that was less than a legend, and worked together to kill the gods believed by the swamp bears. , God of the Hunt and the Fearless, Carranza.

The topic is far away. All in all, when Woody subconsciously uses the correct answer announced in the previous life to communicate with this unprepared Feathered Serpent God, it is already half secure.

Sure enough, the next chat with one person and one god was very harmonious, at least Woody did not touch any of his minefields, such as asking why he fell asleep (lack of faith is a very shameful thing for them, When encountering them, such things can only be said by them themselves, otherwise it will increase the difficulty of chatting.) Another example is asking why the sacrifice has become like this, but you are powerless to stop it (see the above article for the reason.)
All in all, I can't mention His past shame, and praise the architectural style of the temple here as much as possible, and how magical the legendary spell that Cecil mentioned just now is.

Woody chatted like this along the way, so that when he met the first team of guards who came to arrest them, Feathered Serpent asked him to cheer up for the first time, and gave them all kinds of bonuses when fighting in this temple. The blessing of attributes made Cecil feel that his spells were inexplicably more powerful, and the others also felt that their physical strength had suddenly increased a lot.

——"The Feathered Serpent God's Preference "Benevolence": You have been blessed by the Feathered Serpent God. From this moment on, wherever the Feathered Serpent God sees, will become your home field. When facing any immunity judgment, You will receive the attention of Feathered Serpent God. Those who are too low will be immune directly, and those who are too high will be reduced. This value will increase or decrease with the rise of the preference index. Currently, your preference index is 3. In addition, When fighting in the area near the Feathered Serpent statue, your all attributes will be temporarily +1, and when casting spells and attacking, you will get an additional 1 point of natural force bonus. "

——"The favored will always have nothing to fear, especially in Feathered Snake. Its favor can sometimes even surpass the race. This point is often criticized by the same race."

……

The first encounter took place in a field that had just stepped out of the temple area. The soft and comfortable grass replaced the cracked stone road and weeds as tall as a person. They disappeared into the forest with a slight bow, giving people A little sense of security, but there is still a lingering malice surrounding it.

"They found us!"

One of Cecil's detection guards has been discovered and was hit soon. With his vision shattered, Woody also felt the blessings of the Feathered Serpent and the Nature Walker, and the feedback from the forest to him The message carried an indescribably magical touch, as if at a certain moment, he was a tree, and then he witnessed one person after another passing in front of him.

Even though they were careful to restrain their footsteps and breathing, Woody was still able to rely on the kindness this forest gave him, allowing him to easily catch their movements.

There were not many people, only seven, but the divine guards in the front row all held a huge stone sword, which was slightly the same material as the obelisk, and behind their dark armor was a light green cloak, It is well integrated with the forest. It is worth mentioning that Woody also saw a stick of nature held by those elite priests in the Lost Temple.

—An encounter that is not difficult to solve.

While Woody used telepathy to communicate tactics with Cecil, he used gestures to direct the actions of the spirit of nature and Kafferman. As for Rhea, he directed her through the Feathered Serpent who had established a relationship with him.

The current Ruiya shows a heroism that is not inferior to Kaverman. With the blessing of divine power, she is actually a temple priest with five professional levels. In addition to casting spells, she can also borrow feathers for a short time. The power of the snake god, if she hadn't been killed by a plot in her previous life, and the Feathered Serpent God was trapped in the temple by her priests, she would not have died so easily.

The words were divided into two ends, when Woody and the others were intensively preparing for the next encounter.

Inside the temple at this moment, an old man in a crimson priest's robe was yelling at him.

"Trash, it's all trash!"

"I was entered into the plane by outsiders, and no one noticed it. I didn't react until the Tianbei in the Chongsheng District issued a warning!"

"You bastards!"

Right now, he was standing under a huge statue of Feathered Serpent, walking back and forth, even though he kept cursing, he still seemed a little restless.

"Don't worry, Master Priest, we have sent our subordinates to pursue them. I believe that we will soon be able to send these brave guys to the altar. The fresh and rebellious flesh and blood will be used to sacrifice the great Feathered Serpent Crown Next, it couldn't be more appropriate."

At this time, there was a man with tough features in the audience, but his eyebrows and eyes resembled that of the old priest. He stood up helplessly in the eyes of his colleagues. He had no choice but to let him be his illegitimate child.

Although the temple clearly prohibits marrying wives and having children, regardless of men and women, they must serve the Feathered Serpent God all their lives, until the body returns to nature and the soul returns to the Feathered Serpent God, but now the god has been asleep for centuries, as a centralizer of power , Under one god, the chief priest who is above ten thousand people is naturally unwilling to be limited by the virtual regulations, let alone what he is doing now, if the Feathered Serpent God wakes up, the first one will throw his soul into the fire , burn forever, the so-called lice are not afraid of itchiness, this is nothing.

Seeing his son, the old priest also sighed helplessly.

"I hope so! I hope the progress can be faster this time, otherwise, even if I catch it this time, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to solve it next time."

"You mean..."

"There is a traitor in the temple, and he revealed what happened here. Don't you have a little bit of vigilance in your heart about the recent death of the human lord? I will tell you a thousand times, and I will tell you to be careful during this time." No matter how careful you are, no one will take it to heart!"

The old man reprimanded everyone in the room, and everyone shouted innocently in their hearts. After all, they have already done what he said, including completely blocking the paths that Cohen knew, preventing them from entering, and increasing the defense force of the forest. , and various interim measures, but they did not expect that the enemy who came this time was so cunning, bypassed all the traps, and broke through the enchantment of the temple area without disturbing anyone. Fortunately, the sacred area did not enter the interior of the temple, otherwise, this time, the old man might not have dragged them to reprimand, but let them climb up the altar one by one to apologize with death.
