A bright and dazzling green light burst out from the Holy Emblem of the Forest Lady on Attila's heart.
It was like an open, ring-shaped, green ball of light. When its dense outer membrane expanded outwards and passed the monster's blood-red claws. At a speed visible to the naked eye, only the monster's claws were visible.
One after another, pus-filled bubbles bulged above it, then exploded, and green plant vines grew wildly out of it.
The thorn sticks opened up the monster's flesh and blood, pulled them up one by one, and then fell apart like flowers, revealing the dense white bones underneath; but the bones were as fragile as powder under the green light, and they broke inch by inch - five long sticks
The long claws seemed to have hit an invisible barrier, shooting out and scattering all over the ground.
The monster screamed and hurriedly backed away, like a poor creature who had been bullied.
The elf lady was startled for a moment, and pressed her holy symbol with one hand: "Lord Amaya?" she asked in a low voice. At this time, a light spear shot out, like an electric light, passing through the monster's heart, killing it.
Nailed on the gray stone wall behind, a crack opened on the stone wall, like a broken ice lake, split into two.
The monster opened its big mouth, revealing its snow-white fangs, and exhaled the final breath of mist. It let out a low and hoarse hiss from its throat. It struggled for a moment, and finally tilted its head and fell down.
The process was like lightning, and it wasn't until the moment the big cat man's light spear came out of his hand that everyone realized it.
Ai Xiaoxiao was so frightened that her pretty face turned pale, and she patted her heart with lingering fear: "I was scared to death, what kind of monster is this...?"
But no one could answer.
Only Aitila looked at the blood stain that slowly slid down the wall, leaving a trace of blood, and replied calmly: "Servant of Blood."
"Servant of Blood?"
Then everyone gathered around. The monster looked like a skinned man alive. It had no head and a bloody mouth growing directly on its neck. One of its claws had been turned into powder in the previous battle, while the other
It is a long, forked and curly tentacle.
The monster collapsed on the ground like a ball of flesh and blood, with a black hole in its chest, and blood flowed from it.
At this time, a voice came from behind the elf lady holding the Holy Emblem: "Blood Servants are not real creatures, but half-golems transformed by a combination of alchemy and evil magic rituals - in Oshu, they are also
It’s called the Blood Golem.”
The big cat man was coming up from behind and walked to the side of the Blood Servant. The thick armor made a "squeaking" sound.
He stopped next to the bloody corpse, squatted down, then lifted the latter up from the ground, passed his glove through the fangs, and inserted it into its open bloody mouth.
Tian Lan, who was approaching, heard a sound like a hand being inserted into muddy water, and saw a stream of blood emerging from the big cat man's hand. Suddenly, there was a surge in her throat, and she couldn't help but turn pale, and immediately covered her mouth and ran away.
Got out.
Alyssa's performance on the side was slightly better, but it was limited. She asked with a pale face: "Mr. Reid, what are you doing...?"
The big cat man didn't answer, he just grabbed the opponent's tongue and pulled it out of the blood. There was a soft sound, and the tongue was pulled out with something attached. The big cat man grabbed it in his hand
, blood flowed across the ground for a while, dripping into the dust on the ground.
The blood and water mixed with the sand and turned into dark brown——
Seeing this scene, just when Ai Xiaoxiao on the other side almost covered her mouth and ran away, it was at this moment that the long tongue suddenly came to life - it curled and struggled, and moved around the big cat.
A scream came from the human hand.
Then the thing suddenly jumped out, slipped out of the big cat man's gloves, and landed on the ground, crawling to Parker like an octopus. It was so frightened that the Papalar almost forgot that he was a crossbowman, or rather
'King of Nightingales'. Although the thing was at least a foot or two away from him, the little fat man screamed and sat down on the ground.
It was too late, but it was too soon. The big cat man suddenly stretched out his iron boots and stepped on the octopus with one claw. After a soft sound, the octopus suddenly turned into a pool of blood.
Then Rhett threw a ball of white gold flame from his hand, turning the minced meat on the ground into ashes.
After doing all this, he clapped his paws and looked up at everyone:
"This corpse is just a decapitated living sacrifice. This thing is the true body of the Servant of Blood. The twisted object created by the blind god Descartes through nightmares, and then grafted onto the sacrifice using alchemy and evil magic.
, if it is not killed completely, Tansnier is afraid that it will be in big trouble——"
Ai Xiaoxiao was a little frightened when he heard this.
"Mr. Big Cat Man, can this thing reproduce?" She endured the discomfort and asked in a low voice.
Rhett couldn't help crying or laughing every time he heard what the other party called him, but he still replied: "This is a sacrifice, and it is also a host. The bloodworm - the thing just now, will use the sacrifice as nourishment to reproduce, and then pass through
The dirty blood is immersed in the groundwater. Once the blood plague breaks out, half of the city may be infected..."
"Then, now...?"
"Luckily, those guys should have given up on this place early."
"Those guys, are they slave traders?" Ai Xiaoxiao was very puzzled: "But why do they do this?"
The big cat man shook his head: "The identity of those slave traders is not simple, they are blind followers."
"Blind follower?"
"He is a believer in Descartes, the blind god."
The big cat man suddenly said to Abed beside him: "Take this body away and burn it clean."
The latter was watching this scene silently and just nodded, seemingly not surprised. He let the guards in and dragged the body out - but the guards were a little timid at first, but after the big cat man assured him,
Afterwards, these people finally calmed down. After they dragged the body out of the hall, they only left a dark trail of blood on the floor.
Rhett then turned around and continued: "The blind god Descartes is one of the dark saints, the keeper of secrets, the polluter and the gestator of life. However, as early as the giant war, it had already
Died at the hands of Ms. Amaya. Since then, its believers have rarely appeared in this world——"
Having said this, he paused and said with a somewhat solemn look: "But using evil magic and alchemical structures to distort life is a typical characteristic of Descartes' followers. It seems that they have resurrected."
Ai Xiaoxiao is close to Tang Xin, and the latter is Mirela's pastor. Therefore, the little girl was very puzzled when she heard the big cat man's description: "Life gestator, isn't that Ms. Mirela's priesthood? Why is that?
A god of darkness, would he have such a title?"
But this time, it was Atila who answered her.
Miss Elf held the Holy Emblem, turned around and replied: "Because twisted life is also life, plague is also a kind of life, and life can also kill life. Descartes is not only Lord Aimaya's mortal enemy. Before the Giant War,
, and one of Ms. Mirella’s biggest enemies.”
When talking about the divine war in the past, everyone was at a loss as to how to answer.
Because not many people know the history since the days of Eshorin's Scourge.
At this time, the big cat man scratched the blood marks on the wall with his claws and added lightly: "'Blind listening, blind belief, blind obedience——'"
"Descartes is the most different one among the Dark Saints. He advocates knowledge, likes alchemy, and is keen on creating 'life' that does not originally exist. He is the 'Keeper of Secrets' and the 'Life' among the Dark Saints.
The Incubator', it will occasionally appear in front of the world in the form of 'Mirela' and 'Angina', to tempt those scholars and alchemists who pursue knowledge and truth."
"And through forbidden knowledge, seduces and corrupts."
"Alchemist?"
Miss Nightingale raised her eyebrows slightly.
When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized something - it seemed that until now, their leader had not spoken.
Tang Xin was the first to catch the abnormality. When she turned around, she saw her cousin frowning slightly, keeping his head down and thinking, as if he was completely unaware of the changes in the outside world.
She was about to speak, but Fang Plover had already raised his head first.
He looked at Aitila and said, "Miss Aitila?"
Etila seemed to understand what he was going to say, and only nodded slightly.
She then put down the Holy Emblem in her hand and said, "The lady has left."
Fang Yu had a complicated look on his face: "Just now was it really...?"
Etila still nodded.
God descends——
In fact, at the moment when the Holy Emblem in Miss Elf's hand glowed, Fang Yu secretly felt a gaze falling on him.
The gaze was huge and omnipresent, yet gentle and elegant, making people feel a kind of inner peace. It was as if the moment the gaze fell on him, he felt that since he had absorbed the Lizard God,
The dark, negative, and violent thoughts accumulated in my heart since Nicol Bolas and Dragon King Lifgard experienced a series of dark forces——
Then they were all swept away.
That quiet and ethereal feeling made him feel like he was returning to the original source of life over and over again. There was an illusion that made his whole person feel sublimated.
Then a voice came to his heart:
"The owner of Hailin Crown."
"This is the first time we've met."
"Please don't be afraid."
"I am not the person you are looking for, or looking for you."
"But just out of a little curiosity..."
"So I'm going to give you a little gift—"
"Please keep this in mind..."
…
And when Fang Plover came to his senses again.
Then he only saw Etila holding the Holy Emblem, standing right in front of him.
Miss Elf's gentle and broad eyes seem to have some similarities with that lady, but the details are not exactly the same.
He was stunned for a long time, and then looked around in confusion - the monster that attacked Miss Elf earlier had disappeared. There was only a blood stain on the hall not far away, which seemed to indicate that it had existed before.
It seemed that some time had passed in the hall, but to him, it was just a moment of questions and answers.
At this moment, Fang Yu saw Aitila gently nodding his head, and then he really understood in his heart——
It was the lady who I had a conversation with before.
The master of the forest, the god of nature and hunting, the protector of sacred trees, the god of eternal youth and beauty—Aimea.
He had indeed heard some stories about the descendants of gods in the past - many of them were chosen ones. About ten years ago, a chosen person from Malan appeared in the first division, and the opponent obtained the position of the Ten Kings with the favor of God.
It became a legend for a time. Then, one or two chosen ones were born one after another.
But they are all unknown lesser gods, not as famous as the first one.
As we all know, the arrival of gods in Aitaria is a very rare event. The indigenous people call it a 'miracle'. Every time a god shows a miracle, it will have a profound impact on the world.
However, since the Giant War, the Ori gods have actually rarely walked on the earth.
Fang Yu also didn't expect that he would encounter the divine coming of the forest lady.
But there are some differences in his divine descent this time.
First of all, the lady of the forest has always distrusted the chosen ones, and she is also one of the few gods that does not accept hypocrites as believers. Amea's aloofness is particularly famous even among the gods of Ori - her god
It is also very rare in history, let alone among the chosen ones.
But if the other party favors him, that's not entirely true.
Overall, this divine descent is quite strange——
The other party neither selected him as a chosen one nor exerted any divine power on him, let alone gave him any benefits - it was as if he was just passing by and came to chat with him for a few words. He said he was giving him a gift, but in fact
It was just a meaningless remark to him:
‘The gray wolf and the long sword——’
Fang Yu thought carefully for a long time before he remembered that wasn't the pattern on the big cat man's badge?
That is actually Marlan's holy symbol.
But when he asked the other party in turn, Ms. Forest only nodded slightly to him and said a noun:
"Fenris."
Fang Plover can understand this term, but what it represents is unknown.
This always made him feel that he had an illusion. It seemed that this forest lady came specially to make fun of him, but could a high-ranking god, the Lord of the jungle and nature, be so free?
Fortunately, Attila is still here.
He looked at the other party, and Miss Elf's long eyelashes sank slightly and said, "I felt the will of the goddess just now."
Everyone was already confused when they heard the two playing riddles. After hearing these words, they turned their attention to the latter.
"God descends?"
Even the big cat man was a little surprised: "Could it be...that time just now...?"
Etila nodded slightly:
"It's Ms. Amaya. The goddess hopes that we can do her a favor."
As soon as these words came out, everyone suddenly took a breath of air.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute," even Parker couldn't help but stretched out his hand and said loudly: "We are only at a certain level, the goddess will not come to us... eh, newcomers, right?"
"Aren't you the King of Nightingales?" Alisa asked.
The Papalar man opened his mouth and thought for a while before replying: "This is not a contradiction."
But after hearing these words, Fang Yu became more awake and understood. It turned out that the goddess came to see Aitila, and just chatted with him for a few words. As for why, Fang Yu was still there for a while.
I didn't expect the reason, so I can only assume it's because I have the Hailin Crown on my body.
But he pondered for a moment before coming back to his senses.
Help the forest lady with her work.
Of course this kind of task must come next.
The chosen ones are keen to find various rare tasks in Aitalia and reap benefits from them. But what tasks are more legendary than the 'Oracle' level tasks? What's more, after listening to Miss Tata
After the description, he had roughly guessed the reason why Amaya came here.
After all, Descartes died at the hands of the latter.
Descartes, the blind god, is ultimately pursuing the twisted end of life, which can be said to be the mortal enemy of nature. One of the major responsibilities of Ms. Aimea's Holy Tree Temple in the world is to monitor the movements of blind followers.
And Miss Atila is the priest of this temple.
So Fang Yu asked: "Are you asking us to investigate things related to the blind followers?"
Aitila nodded and said: "This is exactly what the goddess meant. Since more than ten years ago, she has faintly felt the aura of her old enemy. But just like the lizard god, the opponent is hidden very deeply. In fact, Aimee
Ms. Ya used divine perception to search for the other party’s whereabouts in Kaolin-Ishulian until the previous ‘Servant of Blood’ appeared——”
"Since more than ten years ago?"
Fang Plover had completely recovered by now. When he heard these words, he felt that he had caught something.
He couldn't help but look to the side, and happened to see Sylvester's eyes looking towards him. In fact, for their current mission, he knew early on that it was not that simple, and at this moment, where the slave merchant was staying, no matter whether he discovered
After the blind follower ritual, it would be better to discover the 'Blood Servant'.
In fact, it didn't surprise him at all.
It was only at this time that the missing clues were connected one by one like a string of beads.
Due to Descartes' preferences, the proportion of scholars and alchemists among blind followers is quite large, and to create a servant of blood, it is inseparable from the combination of necromancy and alchemy. Therefore, Istania is indeed
One of the best places for blind followers to develop.
But this thought reminded Fang Pliong of another thing.
And it was at this moment that he seemed to feel something and turned around - just in time to see Abed walking in from the outside again. After the other party entered the door, he looked at them and suddenly interjected: "Everyone, I have something to say.
Want to say."
Everyone was stunned and couldn't help but look at the taciturn hotel owner - they already knew that he was actually a spy of Her Royal Highness the Princess, not just an ordinary hotel owner.
At this time, Abed organized his language before replying: "Sorry, for some reasons, we have concealed some facts from you. In fact, Her Highness the Princess asked you to investigate those slave traders not just to combat the slave trade...
But there is another reason."
He paused for a moment: "This starts from more than ten years ago, because the wandering alchemists who attacked the princess at that time may be just such a group of people... I personally experienced that attack. I was seriously injured in the battle.
He was lucky enough to survive because he was buried under layers of corpses. I witnessed that battle with my own eyes. The alchemists who attacked the princess's car also brought many such monsters with them..."
"Just like the monster you saw before, exactly the same..."
After he finished speaking, he stopped and looked at everyone quietly.
After everyone heard these words, they couldn't help but look at each other in surprise, and they still didn't understand why the other party suddenly said such words.
But only Fang Yu didn't look surprised at all, and even expected it. He just looked at the other party and asked: "So, Your Highness the Princess knew about this a long time ago?"
Abed nodded very slowly.
"Please don't blame Her Highness the Princess harshly. After all, Your Highness has no evidence to prove that these hard-working merchants are actually related to them. It is just a degree of suspicion." He replied quietly: "After all, the wandering alchemist once again appeared in Tansnir.
The only clue left is that these slave traders..."
"And we," Fang Plover asked, "happen to be the only people who have interacted with the wandering alchemist?"
Abed nodded again.
But he explained: "However, Her Royal Highness did not intend to deceive you. She really just wanted you to help investigate the origins and whereabouts of these slave traders, but she did not expect-"
The big cat man intervened at this time and asked: "I didn't expect that we discovered each other's identity from the beginning?"
The owner of Sand Lodge did not answer.
Rhett narrowed his silver-grey eyes slightly and said, "So what are you going to do now?"
Abed then raised his head and looked at them: "It depends on what you want."
"How do you say that?" Fang Yu asked.
"The purpose of Her Royal Highness the Princess is actually to track down the murderer who killed her mother more than ten years ago," Abed answered straight to the point: "It has been confirmed that these slave traders are related to them, so I hope you can continue to complete this task.
, find the whereabouts of these slave traders."
Fang Yu pondered for a moment.
In fact, the other party's thoughts were completely within his expectations. He had known that it would not be that simple for Her Royal Highness the Princess to intervene in this incident. Why did she ask to see him in person after they met the wandering alchemist?
Their request?
Moreover, during the dinner, the other party also vaguely mentioned what happened ten years ago.
But whether they should agree and how they should agree is another matter.
