Monster Minotaur

Chapter 243 Two Measures Chapter 46  Wrong Trust

Just when Mo Yan was escorted by a group of dragons to Dragon Island, a mysterious guest was also welcomed in the Temple of the Moon in the temporary capital of Carthage. He looks as short as a dwarf, and his back is hunched as if he has no bones. He is holding a wooden staff that is much taller than others. He is wearing a dusty old cloak and exudes a very strong smell. Weird smell.

Generally speaking, people like this are not allowed to enter the temporary royal capital. Nowadays, this is a gathering place for the nobles of the entire kingdom. Even if you find someone to slap a brick on the street, it is likely to be a knight or a lord. If you are too lucky, you may even injure someone. The count who went out without his attendants became a wanted criminal throughout Carthage. If someone like a beggar appears who does not fit the appearance of the city, no matter if it offends that dignitary, then the garrison responsible for defending the city will be dismissed from at least a few centurions and the like.

However, this mysterious man who does not look like a human has a pass that only a mage can possess. In the eyes of most ordinary people who have never met a mage, these people are often very mysterious. Most of them have very strange appearances in the stories, so it is not surprising that such a situation would occur. As long as they are mages belonging to their own country, they have many privileges that they can use. It is impossible for the soldiers guarding the city to embarrass these powerful people.

However, the identity of the mage is of no use in front of the temple. The Templar Knights guarding the temple, which symbolizes the residence of the gods, can ignore even the king coming to visit. Not to mention mages who are merely powerful. They may be mysterious and powerful in the eyes of ordinary people, but they are nothing in front of servants of gods like them.

At this time, in front of the temple gate, two Templar knights wearing the unique armor of the Temple of the Moon with March patterns on the back looked at the man in a gray cloak walking along the long steps full of March decorations. , the dwarf walked up to the door of the temple with difficulty. When he arrived at the circular gate, the spears in the hands of the Templar knights stopped in front of the dwarf. The unusually unpleasant smell on his body made the Templar knights frown, but they still maintained the necessary humility. As they did most of the time, they asked about the origin of the mysterious man in front of them and their intention to come to the temple.

Because the three Moon Goddess are the goddesses in charge of fate, people with all kinds of unlucky fates often come to the temple to seek guidance from the Goddess of Destiny. Generally speaking, after they donate a certain amount of money, they will get a very obscure words. That is what they will face in the near future. If they can solve the mystery of the priests, then they will not want to change. The future is not a very difficult thing.

Unfortunately, there are not many people who can interpret riddles, which has given rise to a group of professionals who specialize in interpreting riddles for others. They call themselves divine interpreters. In the eyes of the priests of the Moon God, this profession is a blasphemy against the prophecies given by God. Once the Templar Knights of the temple discover these interpreters, they will generally kill them directly, and then only need to check with those who come to see them. Just say something to the law enforcement team. In this world where gods exist, the Templars are only governed by the precepts of their temples and not by the rule of the king.

Facing the Templar Knights who were responsible for guarding the temple, the mysterious man took out a letter and a March pendant from his arms and handed them to the Templar Knights who heard about him. A Templar knight standing on the left side of the mysterious man saw the hand under the robe with sharp eyes. It was like a burning candle that had melted. The original appearance of the hand could not be seen at all, no matter what the person in front of him was. What it is, he will definitely not be a creature on any continent.

After taking what the mysterious man handed over, the Templar knights' expressions became serious. That unique pendant is not something that ordinary people can own. Only the senior priests of the temple and those powerful divinely chosen warriors are qualified to wear such things. This necklace may have been sent by priests from other parishes, or it may be that a certain divinely chosen warrior wants to inform them of something. No matter what kind of thing it is, it is not something that can only deal with ordinary things most of the time. That's all the Temple Knights can control.

Please go to the reception room and wait for a moment. The captain of the Templars who was on duty today understood the importance of the matter. He took the letter and pendant that exuded a strange smell and ran towards the temple, breaking the entire The peaceful atmosphere of the temple hall. When leaving, he arranged for another knight to take this strange and mysterious man to the reception room. He would hand these things over to the three divinely chosen warriors who were training in the temple.

The Templar Knights took the mysterious man to the building next to the main hall. This is a reception room specially responsible for receiving guests. It is also a place where senior priests conduct daily faith prayers. Therefore, both the shape and decoration of the furniture and the construction of the entire room have a strong religious atmosphere. Colored glass, which is rare on the mainland, is decorated on the windows here. Under the sunlight, Three three-color moons appeared on one wall.

The dwarf in the robe did not sit on the soft sofa. He just stood there leaning on the wooden staff, wondering what he was thinking about. After a while, three identical middle-aged women with white hair came in from outside. In their hands were letters and pendants brought by the mysterious man.

The pendant you sent was obtained by Sister Aurora. The three women came to the front of the cloaked man and said in unison: And according to the requirements of our gods, they are the gods sent to investigate the situation in Elan. Choose a warrior, so what you said in your letter should be true. But in order to confirm it more accurately, we would like to confirm with you again that the temple you mentioned in Elam is really a legend. The temple of the evil goddess?”

The hunched mysterious man nodded, but still did not answer the questions of the three divinely chosen warriors with his voice. Seeing this scene, one of the three divinely chosen warriors walked up to the mysterious man and pulled down his hood with his hand, revealing his face hidden in it. What kind of face is this? The face melted like a candle, and the only eyes that were still there were also covered a lot. Some dirty white hairs can also be seen on the swollen chin and top of the head.

Is it really a magic statue? The God's Chosen Warrior nodded and said, No wonder Lord Moon God can't probe your mind. Now that your body is so damaged, it means that your original body should be dead. According to As we know, the magic statue can only be active for two or three days at most after the death of the main body. How did you use all this time to get here? But forget it... This is good, at least we can do it again Killed you once.

The words of the three God-chosen warriors gave Ryze, who had finally arrived here, some bad premonitions. He did not hesitate to use his own body as bait to lure away the powerful lich. This was not what he wanted. result. An extremely unpleasant sound came from the demonic statue that was about to dissipate. The throat he could use to speak had melted, but the anger and unwillingness in his heart made him miraculously speak again.

Do you want to betray the god you believe in! Ryze shouted with all his strength, but the sound he made was unusually weak. Fortunately, the soldiers of the Moon God heard his words, and although their voices were strange and abnormal, they could barely understand the meaning. The warriors of the three-month god shook their heads with a cold expression. They summoned the temple warriors who had been guarding outside for a long time and said: How can we, who can directly contact the gods, betray our gods? All this is the meaning of the gods. As a mortal, you will not understand the intentions of the gods. We don’t care what happens to other gods. What I want you to know is that everything in the world is under the control of the Moon God. Under control.”

The Templar Knights drew out their swords from their waists and walked towards the ugly monster in front of them. The sharp sword was like cutting on a ball of lard, cutting this strange thing into two pieces without any hindrance. The originally expected hindrance from the bones did not appear. But these are not matters that these knights need to take care of. They are all loyal guards of the Moon God, and they will follow no matter what the order is.

The divinely chosen warrior standing at the front of the three sisters stretched out his hand to take in a silvery light invisible to others, and took out a small crystal pot from his arms and put it into it. It was a tool used to imprison the soul. Although it could preserve the soul like the Lich's phylactery, the soul inside could never leave the crystal pot unless someone released it.

The Templars searched for Ryze's belongings. Apart from some scattered coins and the mage's certificate, there was only a strange-looking black square full of holes, which came from the center of his magic statue. What was discovered contained some weak magic power. The reason why Ryze's magic statue can last for such a long time is because of this strange thing. This thing has never appeared on the mainland, maybe it was something he invented himself.

After doing all this, the three divinely chosen warriors left the reception room, leaving the Templar knights there to deal with the aftermath. This place will be used by the priests tomorrow, but such an important thing cannot be left to other servants, so it can only be done by them, the Templar Knights.

The Templars endured the unpleasant smell, wrapped the magic statue in the tattered cloak, and burned it in a more private place. And a man among this group of knights, while packing other items, took advantage of others not paying attention and secretly hid the letter that the God-chosen warriors had ordered to burn when they left. In my own arms...
