Raven tried to persuade her, but Sarah's mind was made up.
In the end, the first mate failed to defeat the captain.
The Siren packed up supplies and went to sea to avoid the storm, leaving Sarah alone to go to the temple of Nagakaporos to accept Illaoi's trial.
When Sarah arrived at Naga Kapolo's temple, she was surprised to find that many people gathered at the normally deserted Snake Mother Temple.
These people seem to have some minor conflicts with Okao, and they are begging hard at this time, hoping to let Illaoi mediate by offering their beliefs.
Unfortunately, Illaoi turned a deaf ear to their prayers.
Illaoi doesn't believe in these people's so-called beliefs at all - because her attitude is very clear, if anything happens, she will go through a trial first.
In the beginning, some people who were not afraid of death did accept the trial.
Then, his soul was unable to withstand the pressure of the trial and shattered. Then his entire body turned into rubble on the ground, and finally collapsed under the desperate eyes of others.
From then on, these guys who came to seek refuge could only cry and howl here, but no one dared to stand up again and accept Nagakapoulos' trial...
After all, judging from the performance, it seems that if you accept Illaoi's trial, you will die more miserably.
And it was amid the helpless prayers (or wailing, more appropriately) of such a group of people that Sarah came to the temple of Naga Kapoulos and took the initiative to find Illaoi.
"I come to accept the trial of the true one." Sarah shook her fiery red hair, "You are Ms. Illaoi, right?"
……………………
The news that Sarah accepted the trial of Naga Kapoulos was sent to Lux immediately.
However, after Drizzt, who was responsible for delivering the message, teleported back, Lux was not found in White Harbor.
Not only that, the refugees in White Harbor have no idea where Lux went. They only know that Lux left the shelter in a hurry not long ago.
Before leaving, I specifically asked everyone to stay in the shelter, close the doors and windows and not go out.
Is there something urgent?
Drizzt was a little strange.
However, since he had collected the money and accepted the employment, he naturally had to send the message to him honestly. After asking about the direction of Lux's departure, he simply called Graves, who had already recovered from his injury, and the two
I personally went all the way east to deliver a message to Lux.
So, the question is, where did Lux go?
What Drizzt didn't know was that just as the Siren set sail and Sarah began her soul trial, Lux left White Harbor and also headed east to the Temple of Nagakapoulos.
The reason why she chose to come to the temple was because the weather was different today - it was not yet evening, but it seemed to get dark very early.
At the beginning, it was Lux who noticed something was wrong first.
"What a strange weather." Lux looked at the clouds and mist that covered half of the sky like a veil, and said a little strangely, "This must be the first time I have seen such weather in Bilgewater, right?"
"Something is wrong." Hearing what Lux said, Kalya quickly realized the problem, "Early in the dark sky, this is not a normal thing... Quick, follow my guidance, find a higher place, and build
A monitoring circle!"
Blinking her eyes, Lux didn't know why Kalya's tone suddenly became serious, but she still followed Kalya's guidance honestly and used her own magic power to build a simple energy monitoring array.
When the magic circle completed the last stroke, the originally bright light suddenly dimmed, and a faint mist lingered on the magic circle - seeing this scene, even if she didn't know what it meant, Lux
I still feel that the situation may not be good.
"Isn't this year's Soul Devouring Night still two months away?" Kalya pondered, "Why at this juncture, those undead have come to interfere?"
"Undead?" Lux heard this name for the first time, "What is that?"
"A group of guys who were unable to enter the cycle of life and death due to special reasons and are attached to the human world." Kalya said in a serious tone, "It's very troublesome... and very abnormal. As far as I know, these undead and Naga Kapoulos are mortal enemies.
, they will only be active under the cover of the black mist during the Soul-Eating Night."
"But Soul Eater Night should be two months away." Lux suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem, "But they are about to appear in Bilgewater!"
"This is despite the fact that a large number of people have just died in Bilgewater." Kalya thought for a moment and quickly said, "Lux, set off immediately to go to the temple of Naga Kapoulos, and go to the temple first.
Illaoi warns!"
"Okay!" Lux put on the sword neatly, "What should we do here in the shelter?"
"Tell everyone to stay in the room and close the doors and windows." Kalya seemed to be gritting his teeth, "Find Illaoi and work together to expel the black mist first!"
……………………
Lux walked hurriedly.
When she arrived at the temple of Nagakaporos, Illaoi was still holding the statue of the god, presiding over Sarah's trial.
Judging from Sarah's expression, she seemed to be in some pain, but at least her breathing was steady and she seemed to be able to pass the test.
Normally, Lux would have waited patiently for Sarah to complete this soul trial.
But now the situation is too urgent. Seeing that Miss Fortune may not be able to end it for a while, she can only quietly ask Kalya for help.
Unfortunately, there was nothing Karya could do this time.
After arriving at Shenxi's side, Kalya found that the backup he had left had been consumed - in this case, he no longer had any interference with the trial.
Unless Lux risked offending all the priests and directly stopped this trial, she could only quietly hope that Sarah would work harder and pass the trial quickly.
But things went counterproductive.
Until the sky completely darkened and the black mist surged in from the east, Sarah was still in the trial.
People who took refuge in the temple began to panic.
The priests of the Snake Mother began to discuss in low voices whether they should directly kill the guy who was undergoing the trial and forcibly terminate the trial so that Illaoi could free up his hands to deal with the black mist.
At this time, Drizzt and Graves, who had been inquiring all along, finally arrived at the temple.
"Miss Lux, I finally found you...wait, why is Miss Fortune here too?"
"There is no time to explain." Seeing that an acquaintance finally came, Lux grabbed Drizzt, "Keep an eye on these priests, don't let them attack Sarah!"
"Compared to Bilgewater, a mortal's life is nothing." Sensing what Lux meant, a priest stepped forward and said, "We need Ms. Illaoi to fight against the enemies of Naga Kaporos.
!”
"That will have to wait until the trial is completed." Lux quickly pulled out the broken sword, "Before then, I will stop the expansion of the black mist!"
The priest's lips moved, as if he wanted to say, "Why do you?"
But before he could make a sound, a dazzling light bloomed from Lux's broken sword, making him swallow the words hard.
