"I'm so tired that I won't do this kind of work again." Lina sat panting next to the cellar, sweating profusely, "Pastor Mirak, you can find a way to transport these people back to the temple for treatment. They are all in a coma. The Ryans have not found them yet, so we have to go down and continue looking for them. By the way, Ladyya was seriously injured just now, and I have treated her, but she can't exercise vigorously yet. She has to recuperate for about seven days, so you can arrange it too."
Mirak looked at the six people lying all over the floor next to the cellar in embarrassment, rubbed his hands: "I'll go and ask the village chief for help."
"Whatever you want, let's go down and continue." Lina stood up and dusted the soil and was about to return to the cellar, but was pulled by Panis.
"First, it's already very late now." Panis pointed to the stars above his head: "Second, you haven't eaten all day, I haven't eaten either, I'm hungry. Third, it's time to go to bed. I'm going to bed, I don't want to go down to camp. Fourth, you just released the Sand of Rebirth. That kind of magic technique can make you magic power bottom. You don't have magical power at all now and you have to rest for a night. So, do you understand what I'm going to say?"
"I know I should take a night off and go to find someone tomorrow." Lina said: "But time is tight, and it is related to two lives. You can't ignore them just because you need to rest."
Panis said seriously: "The terrain below is complicated, the situation is unknown, and I don't know what dangers you will encounter. If you don't adjust to the best state, then it will not be two lives, but four. In theory, you are also a professional adventurer. You won't understand such a simple question."
Lina was stunned for a moment, patted her forehead and whispered, "Sorry, I'm a little...reckless. You're right, you shouldn't go down today. Let's go buy some food and go back to rest. Pastor Mirak, go find the village chief to transport these people. We two will go back to the temple first."
"Pastor Lina, I'll take you back first, and then go to the village chief." Mirak said.
"No need, we know the way." Lina pulled Lapanis: "Let's go, at this time, the stalls selling snacks in various places should have been confiscated yet, let's go quickly."
During the Harvest Festival, every supper time, many businesses set up stalls to run all over Yala.
Food. Grilled Kodo Beast Steak from the Orc Grassland, Salt Fruit and Boiled Root Mushroom from the Elf Forest, Steamed Root Ribs and Lizard Meat Floss from the Mountain Country, Parrot Shrimp and Electric Snail from the Sea Country, These special foods can be bought here, of course, the price is absolutely considerable. But even if the price is expensive, there are still endless customers. After all, except for a few large festivals, the possibility of eating these special flavors is very low at other times. Tourists who come here to visit and celebrate the festival are willing to spend more money to taste the freshness.
Lina pulled Panis through each stall. Every time she passed by, Panis could tell the source of the specialties on the stalls, including the story behind them, in a very detailed manner, and even know clearly than some stall owners, so that the stall owners and Lina could listen with relish.
"Sometimes I really admire you." Lina was holding a plate of boiled forest mushrooms in front of her, savoring them one by one. The forest mushroom is a fungus that only grows in the lost forest. After boiling, in addition to the unique umami flavor of the fungus, it also has a fruit fragrance. The two tastes are mixed in the mouth, and the weirdness is also an indescribable deliciousness, which makes it hard for people who have eaten it to forget.
"What do you admire me? Do you admire my charm?" Panis just told a few jokes to a business girl from the country of Mountains, which made the little girl giggle. He blushed and sold him several portions of steamed mountain rat ribs at a price of one-third cheaper. He ate and showed off his pride. He heard Lina's words and boasted, "Actually, I admire myself very much. I can attract the attention of girls wherever I go."
"That's because you're too shameless, okay?" Lina gave Panis a blank look: "I admire you for knowing everything, all kinds of cultures, knowledge, professional skills, and customs and customs in various places. You don't seem to know anything. Have you traveled all over the Yara continent?"
"How is that possible?" Panis chewed the cartilage on the rat's ribs and waved his oily hand: "No one except the Guardians, yet he dared to say that he had traveled all over the Yara continent. As for me? That's because I'm too smart, hahahaha, I can remember any knowledge once I hear it. Well, after saying this, I feel that I'm amazing."
"You have to be more handsome. Every time you praise you, you do this, you did it on purpose." Lina cursed angrily, stood up and turned around and left: "I'm too lazy to pay attention to you, I'll go buy some food. I've been hungry for a day, but I haven't eaten enough."
"Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
"You're enough, you're not allowed to talk to me if you have something stuffed in your mouth." Lina covered her face and pretended not to know him.
"Really, I just want you to bring me some drinks back." Pennis muttered and complained: "I pretended not to know me. Angry woman is indeed the most unreasonable creature in the world."
"Are you right?" Panis asked, turning his head to his side. Beside him, a girl with long light blue hair and a black dress stood there, looking at him with a smile on her face.

"This chowdered clam meat is good, and there are the crab meatballs. You can get more of them, and that guy probably likes to eat them." Lina bought two kinds of food in front of a stall from the State of the Sea and held it in her hand. As soon as she turned around, she was startled and almost threw the food in her hand to the ground.
At some point, a girl with long light blue hair and a white dress stood behind her back, tilting her head and staring at her curiously. At the girl's feet, a big dog was lying on the ground and digging the soil casually, with a humanized boring expression on her face.
"I've seen you." The two girls stared at each other blankly, and Lina suddenly reacted: "I've seen you this morning. You are the twins with dogs."
"Bring, bring, bring, bring the dog?" The girl blinked blankly, and suddenly couldn't help but smile and bent over, kicking the big dog beside her feet: "That's right, I'm one of the twins with the dog."
"Well, did I say something wrong?" Lina was a little puzzled by the girl's reaction.
"No, you're right, very right." The girl finally held back her smile, but the big dog under her feet let out a low roar as if she was threatening, and then turned around and ignored Lina with her tail.
"It's very strange." Lina muttered in confusion before asking, "That, little sister, are you looking for me?"
"Yes." The little girl looked up and down with her hands on her back: "I'll see you."
Lina was even more confused: "We know each other?"
"No, no, you don't know me." The little girl shook her head: "But I know you, Lina, right? Helena Ryan, since she was a child, she was one of the post-posts of the Archbishop of the Goddess of Earth Church. When she was eight years old..."
"Don't say this." Lina suddenly lost her composure.
"I'm sorry, I apologize." The little girl was stunned and lowered her head to apologize: "I just want to say that I do know you."
"Why investigate me?" Lina said angrily.
"Investigate you? No, I don't." The little girl shook her finger: "Investigating others for no reason is a very rude behavior, and I will not do it. However, I have my source of information, and now it seems that the news is reliable."
"Who are you?" Lina squatted down slowly and placed the plate in her hand on the ground: "What's the purpose?"
"I've said it." The little girl showed a innocent smile on her face: "I'm here to see you."
Lina's right hand was secretly placed on the handle of the mace, staring at the little girl with alert: "Are you kidding?"
"Not a joke." The little girl spread her hands in front of her: "Don't be so nervous. I have no malice. You can rest assured. Actually, I have no purpose. We both do things depending on our mood. We do whatever we think of. If you want to see you, let's see you."
"Okay, you see me now." Seeing that the little girl had no weapons, Lina felt a little relieved and asked with caution: "Is there any problem?"
"No problem." The little girl smiled: "You are very good, much better than I thought. Both in terms of strength and personality, they are better than I thought. Let me see, well, the golden middle level, such a young golden middle level has great potential. Is the priest? No, you... should be a sage."
"Did you see it?" Lina was surprised and forgot to be alert: "Can you see it too? What do you think?"
"This is a secret." The little girl smiled mysteriously, and suddenly lowered her voice and said, "I suddenly want to tell you something, do you want to hear it?"
"What's the matter?" Lina's curiosity is always strong, and she is difficult to control even when facing this strange little girl.
"The secret of the priesthood." The little girl shrewd softly and whispered: "Do you know, among the priests who are still alive, there are many who are promoted to legends?"
"Nine." Lina replied.
"Yes, do you think there is less?" asked the girl.
Lina nodded: "It's really rare compared to other professions. Maybe it's because everyone has devoted their main energy to their belief in the gods."
"You are right to say that." The little girl smiled, "But six of these nine legendary priests are from sages, and the other three are catalyzed by the direct infusion of power by the gods. You must know that since Yara established a divine barrier in the initial Quaternary period, the gods not only were unable to descend to the Yara world, but also directly lowered divine power to increase the level of believers. Such a price would make even the most powerful gods hesitate about this, and almost no gods were willing to do this, so the opportunities for the three legends are unreplicable. So the current situation is that only sages can be promoted to legends by themselves. Do you know why?"
Lina nodded: "I understand what you mean. The bishops and priests are obsessed with the affairs of the temple. It is difficult to have the opportunity to engage in long-term travel and frequent battles, but these two are essential for promoting legends and improving one's own strength, so the bishops and priests do not have the opportunity to be promoted to legends."
"It's not that there are no chances, it's just that there are so many difficulties." The little girl pretended to be mature and patted Lina on the shoulder: "So, you have a lot of hope. Maybe you are the next legendary priest, come on, girl. But these are not the key. The key is that if you want to be promoted to a legend, you must truly believe in all the gods."
Lina frowned and said, "Are you questioning the truth and piety of my faith?"
"You didn't understand, it was the 'all' of faith in the gods," the little girl said in a stressful tone.
"I don't understand." Lina said blankly: "What is all?"
"Let me say that, although the power of the gods is weak, it is relatively easy for their priests to be promoted to legends. Although the power of the gods is strong, it is quite difficult for their priests to advance to legends. As for the reason? Hehe." The little girl smiled disdainfully, with a strong ridicule and contempt in her tone: "Even if someone keeps saying that Lord Wei Lunsen of the God of Light is also the God of Dark Sith, who would believe that even if everyone believes, which devout believer will truly believe? In fact, they have really accepted it from the heart and prayed with this, and they will receive a response from the gods, but they don't dare to do this. Even if the real priests of the gods are not clear, what else can you talk about in faith and advance to legends?"
"The God of Light is also the God of Darkness?" Lina felt that she couldn't even close her mouth: "Why is this?"
"You think about it yourself, girl." The little girl blinked mischievously again.
Lina gently bit her lip, lowered her head to ponder for a few seconds, raised her head and was about to say something, but was completely stunned. The little girl in front of her, along with the big dog under her feet, completely disappeared from her vision in a few seconds, and was surrounded by people coming and going, as if everything that had just happened seemed like a dream. Not far away, the little girl in black dress stood up and left silently from Pannis's table.
"Who is that?" Lina looked at her back in the black dress with some confusion.
"I don't know you, I'm here to chat with you." Panis replied: "I just said it's because I'm so charming."
