After walking a few steps, Levi's original plan to visit the Temple of the Disaster Maid was interrupted again. This time reinforcements from the Red Brotherhood arrived, and it was said that they had an old relationship with Levi and wanted to see him immediately.
Li Wei was a little surprised. Could it be that Lianhua came in person? But she didn't need to be so formal, right?
Then he saw Zhang San who was quite sad.
Zhang San felt that his first meeting with Li Wei was very pleasant, and they got along very well afterwards, but he did not expect that for such a big thing as the capture of Thorn Town, Li Wei would not take him to play at all.
If Levi could have extended an invitation to him, perhaps that wouldn't have happened.
But he had absolutely no reason to blame the other party. In the final analysis, it was because the two parties were not familiar with each other to that extent.
Li Wei didn't mean to be embarrassed at all. Even if the other party claimed to be hanging out with Lotus, they had just met after all. How could he expose such a big thing?
But this time Lotus actually sent him over as a reinforcement. It can be seen that they really think highly of him.
What makes him feel a little strange is why there are 180 troops behind Zhang San? Are there more reinforcements behind?
Seemingly seeing the confusion in Li Wei's eyes, Zhang San also smiled bitterly: "Oh, Li Wei, I'm sorry, Sister Lotus asked me to bring people to support me, but she misjudged my prestige."
"Neither she nor I could have imagined that those guys were actually instigated by the Church of Cyric and fought side by side with the remnants of the Snake Worshipers."
Li Wei raised his eyebrows, and he roughly understood why the other party only had so many troops left. They were probably all killed by his so-called friends.
So he could only pat the other party's shoulder to express comfort: "Although the price is high, at least it allows you to fully understand their true colors."
Zhang San sighed again: "Who would have thought that they kept saying they wanted to play with me, but in fact they were jealous of me? I can only blame my poor eyesight."
Then his voice changed: "You should already know what happened in Baiyin Town yesterday, so I won't talk nonsense, but I have the latest information on other aspects here."
"Last night, in a hidden valley, countless chaotic phantoms suddenly appeared. Some people also discovered space fluctuations inside, which seemed to be connected to other planes. I suspect that it might be the disintegration of the phantom goddess after her death.
Fragments of Godhead!”
Levi suddenly became energetic. The Phantom Goddess was killed by Cyric and Mask. They were naturally the most fed, but there was also a very important "Phantom" priesthood and godhead fragments, divinity, etc., but
Not all of them got it, but fell into the main world together with the Phantom Goddess.
Those things were not like meteors, they were completely traceless, so no one knew where they had fallen. Unexpectedly, there might be some nearby.
For all mortal things, no matter which one of them you get, it will be a very precious wealth.
The most important thing is undoubtedly the "Phantom Priesthood", which is a treasure that even the gods want.
Next is the Godhead Fragment, which may be useless for powerful gods, but for demigods like Illidan, Lari or Paine, it is undoubtedly a great supplement. The old black dragon only got a Godhead Fragment at the beginning.
As for divinity, it may be the least valuable and the most dangerous in comparison.
Because it contains the characteristics of the original owner, including personality, beliefs, rules of conduct, camp preferences, etc.
If a god falls and his divinity is acquired by a mortal, the god may use some mysterious link to seize the mortal's body and resurrect him.
This has happened many times in history, and some powerful gods can even be resurrected through the bodies of other gods.
For example, the black king Bane was once resurrected in his son who had become a weaker god.
Now the Phantom Goddess has only become a saint and has not yet completely died. If ordinary aborigines obtain her divinity, although they will gain many benefits including life span, etc., there will definitely be great hidden dangers.
But even if they can't use it themselves, they can still donate it to the forces they belong to, and they will definitely get extremely generous rewards.
However, after carefully asking about the location of the valley, Li Wei felt that this trip would be a little troublesome.
It is located almost in the middle area between Deadwater Town and Thorn Town, and is not too far from Silver Town. No matter which force passes through, it is likely to be attacked by the other two parties.
After careful consideration, Levi felt that it was necessary to formally send a messenger to the Bann Church in Deadwater Town in order to reach a certain tacit understanding with the other party on the matter of fighting against Cyric.
Bane is of the lawful evil camp. He and his church are still reasonable and follow the rules, which is better than those arrogant and arrogant lunatics from Cyric's church.
In fact, there are not a few divinely chosen heroes who have tried to join the Church of Cyric.
To them, although Cyric was a bit crazy, he lived a very cool life.
If you don't like someone, you can scold them if you want, and beat them if you want, with almost no scruples.
Moreover, they are always fanning flames or plotting assassinations, just to make other forces fight so that they can benefit from it. This is very suitable for their appetite.
But after they actually joined, they felt a little regretful, because the Church of Cyric was not only like that externally, they were also like that internally!
Almost all Cyric followers are ambitious, cruel and ruthless people, and are crazy about engaging in all kinds of internal fighting.
Within Cyric's church, there is no trust or credit at all. Even Cyric himself would issue orders from time to time that other gods could not imagine: that is, to let several high-level believers perform mutual actions. Subversion and assassination etc.
His clergy of murder, strife and conspiracy are not only directed to the outside world, but also to his believers.
This leads to the fact that if there are two high-level priests of equal strength, after receiving the same task, they will madly attack each other in order to complete the task.
But the result is often that both of their missions end in failure.
This kind of madness and chaos, to a certain extent, is even more demonic, showing the true nature of the chaotic evil camp.
At least the demon can still maintain a considerable degree of loyalty after being completely defeated. There are so many layers in the Abyss, and many layers have demon lords who can rule the entire layer.
When they attacked Black Castle before, the demons didn't say they would fight first.
But now it is clear that Thorn Town has been captured by itself, but according to Luna and Simon's reconnaissance, Cyric Church did not even send a single scout here. They are probably either busy dividing the spoils or busy fighting among themselves.
Under such circumstances, more than 90% of the divinely chosen heroes who joined the Cyric Church would rather bear the price of betraying God than run as far as possible to leave the Cyric Church as soon as possible.
The remaining 10% are either pure fun-lovers or spies from other churches.
The more Levi thought about it, the more he felt that this plan was feasible. As for the enmity between the Waking Church and the Benn Church, it was none of his business. Everyone discussed it on their own.
Thinking of this, he immediately sent a messenger to Deadwater Town and asked Donna, Cindy and others to prepare for war. No matter where they might encounter any enemies, they would never miss this opportunity.
Then he did not refuse Zhang San's request to go with him. Zhang San has been around here for a long time and is already very familiar with various terrains. He will definitely be able to put it to some use.
Moreover, his troops have suffered heavy losses now. Even if they encounter a battle, they probably won't be of much use, so there's no need to worry about giving him too many spoils.
Then he asked Zhou Miyin, Janet and others who were responsible for defending Thorn Town to further increase their vigilance.
Yesterday, Donna robbed Chen Zhui's village in the last days. As expected, he successfully blended in with the followers of Maela. They undoubtedly had hatred towards her.
Although they are busy with a mysterious big plan, they cannot completely ignore the threats they pose.
After settling all this, Levi actually went to the Temple of Disaster Maid. He had been interrupted many times before. This time, he also made certain preparations in advance. Even if he paid a little extra, he must take something away from the other party.
, otherwise it always feels not smooth.
Within a few minutes, he arrived at the small temple, which was dark, somewhat eerie, and even somewhat dilapidated.
Based on the reputation of the Misfortune Girl in the main world, her temple and church must not be short of money. The reason why it is still like this, Levi thinks that she must be as ruined as Lara.
As soon as he entered the door, a female priest in black robes wearing a triangular badge with a red background and antlers on her chest had already taken the initiative to greet her.
Her dress was very different from ordinary priests, because her robe was open in the lower part, revealing stockings underneath that seemed to be made of some kind of spider silk.
Silk stockings seemed to have originally originated from the drow elves in the Underdark, because they were almost naturally good at cultivating various large spiders. However, once they came out, they were loved by many women and quickly spread throughout the world.
Main world.
However, there are still many people who don't like it, such as Elegy and Donna. They like to keep their legs bare, which makes it easier to move and fight.
Michaela and Cindy are more conservative and always wear trousers.
At the root of the thigh, you can also see a black antler logo, which is also the girl of misfortune's favorite pattern.
But with such a complete combination, coupled with the other party's beautiful face and charming eyes, Li Wei felt that something was not right.
It's hard to say, but if he hadn't seen her here, and if she hadn't had a special badge on her body, Li Wei would have misunderstood her as a stray in the town.
For a priest, she looked a bit too coquettish, and the way she looked at him was a bit abnormal.
"It turns out to be the mayor. The goddess foretells your arrival, and her temple also needs your gift."
Even with Li Wei's calmness, she was almost stunned for a moment, not because the goddess she said foreshadowed anything, but every priest would do this, just to better fool people into becoming their believers.
He was just surprised by the directness of the other party, and he reached out to ask for money!
Fortunately, the construction of the mage tower has not officially started yet, and he is not short of money on hand.
After quickly glancing at the east side of the temple, Levi became even more surprised when he saw about a dozen priests who also wore badges but were dressed much more conservatively.
Neither Lady Lucky nor Lady Misfortune has ever been a god who is keen on spreading faith, because there is no need for them to take the initiative, and naturally a lot of mortals come to donate money.
The number of their priests and temples is also very small. The temple is now so small that it is impossible to have so many priests in normal times.
So the most likely possibility is that they were summoned temporarily because of some special matter.
Could it be that the Girl of Misfortune really predicted her own arrival?
But he immediately ignored this somewhat funny idea. No matter how strong she was, she was just a native of the virtual world.
If this pastor is not deceiving, then the most likely reason is that he used some big data or something like that to analyze his own way of doing things.
After thinking for a moment, Li Wei directly took out a thousand gold coins: "I would like to express my respect to the goddess and hope that she will watch my enemies."
Don’t you want money? Then I will satisfy you once and for all and see what else you have to say next!
Even though he had some expectations in advance, the pastor still felt a little dazzled when he saw this small golden pile in front of him.
With so many gold coins, the total weight may be almost 10 kilograms.
But she did have some knowledge after all. After regaining her composure, she chuckled and said: "Very good, Master Li Wei, you and your subordinates will receive the favor of the goddess, and her malice will never come to you personally.
, and your enemies will be supplied by the goddess."
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Li Wei's response, she knelt on the ground and began to pray.
But what made Levi a little embarrassed was that the other person was facing the statue of the Misfortune Girl, with her back facing him.
Her robe was very thin and had many slits, so from his current angle, he seemed to have almost seen everything that should and should not be seen.
Is she really the priest of Maid of Misfortune and not some succubus in disguise?
I had never heard of this being popular in the other party's church before. Plus, her figure and face were very nice, so he couldn't help but have a little reaction.
Wait, Levi was suddenly stunned for a moment. He finally understood why he felt something was wrong, because in this game, he had never had such a reaction before!
Quickly scanning the system panel, he immediately found a temporary online update that looked very inconspicuous, but in fact had the potential to make all the God-chosen heroes cheer and jump for joy.
This update is to make the game more realistic, so the love and marriage systems are opened.
If the relationship is good enough, you can try to propose a love or marriage request to the other party. The target can be a God-chosen hero or aboriginal, or the same or opposite sex.
If the God-chosen heroes are strong enough, legendary or charming enough, they may also attract the admiration of some indigenous people and come to show their goodwill or confess their love.
The pastor in front of me might be influenced by this aspect, right?
Then there is the function that many male God-chosen heroes may particularly yearn for, which releases some of the constraints on their lower bodies. They can now feel the presence of their second brother.
At present, the system is still improving related functions, constraint rules, special protection measures for the God-chosen heroes under special circumstances, etc., in order to further enhance the authenticity of the game and avoid any accidents.
Because the opening of such functions will inevitably involve corresponding risks, the system will not allow the God-chosen heroes to suffer any unexpected harm involuntarily.
But if everything goes well, the chosen heroes may be able to do pleasant things with their aboriginal lovers just like in reality, and even give birth to their own offspring in the game, etc.
All in all, even for Levi, this is a future worth looking forward to.
In addition to not being able to do anything like that, a two-dimensional wife is much better than her real wife in terms of appearance, personality, figure, or abilities.
Now the system is working hard in this regard, and he even wants to find a wife in the game!
However, once this function comes out, many of the chosen heroes who have chosen weird races, such as goblins or elementals, will probably cry to death.
The former is because they are short in stature, so they are small everywhere; the latter is because they may not have that function at all, or even have the tools.
While his heart was surging, the pastor stood up from the ground again, and Levi also slightly adjusted his mentality.
The pastor smiled and said: "Lord Levi, we have succeeded."
The system prompts: "Your piety makes the girl of misfortune feel quite satisfied. Within 100 days, the luck of you and all your current heroic subordinates will not drop below 0 for any reason."
"You gain a special skill - Maid of Doom's Supply 3/3.
Note: This skill can only be used on a single target, and cannot be charged by any conventional means. Please consult the senior priest of Maid of Misfortune after the number of times is exhausted."
Levi was quite satisfied with the previous effect. For outsiders who did not join the Church of Doom, this blessing was basically the best.
But he was a little confused about the latter skill because it didn't have a detailed system description.
But looking at the note at the end, he vaguely felt that it might be very powerful.
Before Li Wei could say anything, the female priest had already spoken again: "Lord Li Wei, there happen to be a few novice priests now. Please take them out for a long experience. If they are not capable, it doesn't matter if they all die.
."
Then her voice changed: "Also, if you don't mind the camp, the black fingers of our church can also try to serve adults."
This special name Levi is not unfamiliar. In the church of the Maid of Misfortune, all priests and priests are women, which is almost exactly the same as Rose, the Spider Queen.
As for her male followers, they can basically only join the "Black Finger", and their treatment is much worse.
But there is no need to sympathize with them, because the full name of Black Finger is the Black Finger Assassin's Association.
Its members are not good people to begin with. They are basically assassins, thieves, robbers, or other similar evil people who can't survive elsewhere, and want to try their luck with the Girl of Misfortune.
Because Girl of Misfortune is relatively generous to her own people, all the priests under her command, as well as a very small number of high-level members of the Black Finger, will receive her blessing. The effect is the same as that obtained by Levi, and their luck is no less than 0.
In terms of camp, more than 90% of the members of Black Finger are neutral evil or chaotic evil. Occasionally there can be a few chaotic neutral ones, but for Levi, they are also not suitable people to be subordinates.
So Li Wei chuckled and nodded, indicating that he understood, but in fact he did not take any action.
At most, you can spend a little money to hire them to assassinate members of Cyric Church.
It doesn't matter whether they can succeed or not, at least they spent money, and they can get a little more goodwill from the Church of Doom and Black Finger. If they spend enough money, they might even get some secret information.
Any organization that has anything to do with assassins will basically have a good intelligence system.
What he is more concerned about now is, what are the abilities of the priests that the other party asked him to take out?
Then he saw the female priests who had been kneeling beside them praying without making any sound from the beginning to the end. One by one, they took out their own equipment from nowhere, including some chain armor and a nine-tailed whip, and then
Like primary school students, they stood obediently to Li Wei's side.
At the same time, the system prompt also popped up, and now Levi could view their attribute panels, indicating that these priests of doom, generally ranging from level 2 to level 4, had indeed served him.
However, this is not permanent. Just like Sam, they are also considered mercenaries, so Levi does not have to worry about any impact on morale due to different camps.
But after seeing their weapons, Levi couldn't help but be a little surprised. This nine-tailed whip is not a common weapon. When the nine-tailed whip is swung, nine sharp claws will often be left on the enemy.
Scratch marks.
It may not be very useful against dwarves who are covered in heavy armor, but if you are dealing with low-armor or unarmored units, such as ratmen, beastmen, low-level undead, etc., the effect should not be too strong.
.
Especially the nine-tailed whip in the hands of these priests of doom is obviously mixed with some sharp metal spikes. If the whip is swung through, it may have multiple bleeding effects on the spot.
In terms of skills, in addition to the necessary treatment and purification for ordinary priests, they also more or less master some illusion-creating, invisibility, assistance, energy-protection and other spells.
There are also magical spells for undead creatures.
Generally speaking, priests on the good side mainly purify and disperse undead creatures, while priests on the evil side may scold, enslave, manipulate, etc. them.
It has two unique skills. One is luck deprivation, which temporarily reduces the opponent's luck by 1 point. It lasts less than 10 seconds and has little effect. However, it consumes less and can be used more frequently.
The second one is the Revenge of Doom. Their murderer will directly reduce their luck by 3 points. What is particularly frightening is that this duration is measured in hours.
Because of this, Li Wei decided to leave some of them to defend the city, and take a few more to go on foreign expeditions, and deliberately let the enemy see them during the battle.
In this way, as long as the other party is not a fool, they will definitely be wary, especially when using large-scale attack magic, they will be even more worried, for fear of accidentally killing them.
As a hidden attribute, it is very difficult to improve luck. So far, Levi has only obtained one +1 luck rune.
If you lower your luck by 3 points at once, the enemy may not only knock off your front teeth while walking, but even a fireball may blow you up before you can even take action.
"Haha, Lord Levi, I'll leave them to you. I am the Finger of Fear-Lhasa. If you need anything in the future, just come to me."
Looking at the charming look in the corners of the other party's eyes, Levi felt that this temporary online update was probably not only effective for the chosen heroes, but also like opening some kind of shackles for the aborigines. He had never encountered such a situation before.
Active female aborigines.
Hmm, it doesn't seem to be the case. Succubi are very good at seducing people. Maybe the other person's personality is like this. As for the specifics, you should still observe other people.
So after thanking him again, he left the Temple of Doom as quickly as possible.
Because even if he is really moved, the system has not yet completely unblocked, so he will probably just have to indulge in it, and instead he will have to offend a high-level priest of doom with an independent title, which is not fun.
However, after this update, is it possible that special places such as brothels in certain towns will start to play their real role?
